Chapter 269 Gao Shun’s confidence, sign in again!
Chapter 269 Gao Shun’s confidence, sign in again!
Accompanied by continuous conquests.
Zhu Houzhao clearly felt that the people under his command were not enough again.
This does not mean that he has too few masters under his command.
But it is relative to the extremely vast Kyushu.
Zhu Houzhao obviously did not have enough manpower.
In order to take over Dali, Zhuge Zhengwo would need to bring several experts from the Zhenwu Division to take charge.
Now, in order to conquer this border fortress of the Song Dynasty, Gao Shun and his 20,000-man Xianzhen Camp are also needed.
If we can capture Bianliang of the Song Dynasty in the future.
I am afraid that in a short period of time, people like Cao Changqing, Chen Zhibao, Xu Yanbing and Li Hanyi will be destroyed.
No one could move easily.
Whether it is to suppress the situation within the Song Dynasty.
Or does it mean to completely annex the Song Dynasty?
It’s a long process.
but....
This is obviously a happy trouble.
Zhu Houzhao chuckled and stopped thinking about these things.
.....
An hour later.
Chen Zhibao, Cao Changqing, Xu Yanbing and others gathered in the general's mansion in the fortress.
People of the martial arts world such as Yang Dingtian and Song Yuanqiao were also fortunate enough to be present here.
But compared to Cao Changqing and others sitting on both sides.
They could only stand near the door.
In this regard.
Yang Dingtian and others had no complaints at all.
Instead, they all lowered their eyes.
Some people were also secretly looking at Zhu Houzhao above.
The youthful appearance of Emperor Wu also surprised everyone.
Many of the people from the underworld present were seeing Zhu Houzhao for the first time.
I never thought that Zhu Houzhao was as young and handsome as the rumors said.
Zhu Houzhao glanced indifferently at these people from the underworld.
He then turned his attention to Cao Changqing: "What is the situation in the fortress?"
Cao Changqing said: "The food and grass can feed 300,000 people for 100 days."
"There are countless weapons and armaments."
"There are more than 70,000 soldiers in the city."
"According to the information Han Shengxuan found out."
"A large amount of food and fodder will be delivered in the near future."
"It is clear that the Song Dynasty originally intended to build this fortress into a logistics base."
The Song Dynasty intends to attack the Ming Dynasty.
Of course, it is necessary to store a large amount of food and fodder in border fortresses as logistics.
The current situation in the fortress clearly illustrates this point.
Han Shengxuan also said softly: "No matter what the previous intelligence is."
"It's still today's intelligence."
"It can be used to determine the main force of the Song Dynasty now."
"They should still gather near Bianjing."
"But now the fortress has fallen and the smoke of war has been lit."
"I think Bian Jing will know the news within three days."
"If we can't reach Lin'an Prefecture within three days."
"Then the situation will be a bit troublesome."
There is no need to say much about the speed with which the Song Dynasty gathered its troops.
As for why it would be troublesome if we don’t arrive at Lin’an Prefecture within three days?
This is naturally because if the Song army cannot be quickly blocked in Lin'an Prefecture and Bianliang.
If Zhu Houzhao led his troops south, he would most likely face layers of resistance from the Song Dynasty.
Based on the information Han Shengxuan has.
There are now at least 500,000 troops gathered in Bianliang, the capital of the Song Dynasty.
If Zhao Kuangyin had learned the news, he would have immediately started to gradually build a defense line.
By then, the Song Dynasty will have vast vertical and horizontal lines.
Zhao Kuangyin could have easily abandoned Bianliang and retreated all the way to the south.
As long as the Qin Dynasty sends troops to the Ming Dynasty.
Zhu Houzhao was no more domineering.
The only option was to give up the plan to quickly annex the Song Dynasty.
Return to Ming Dynasty.
And if the speed is fast enough this time.
Don't give Zhao Kuangyin time to react.
Then the decisive battle can be fought calmly.
One battle will determine the outcome.
This has been the plan all along.
.....
Zhu Houzhao knew this: "We will set off tomorrow."
"These 70,000 Song soldiers..."
He pondered slightly.
The armies of the Song Dynasty are also a problem.
It would be easy to kill them all.
But this does not conform to Zhu Houzhao's idea of unifying the nine provinces.
What he wants is not a broken Kyushu or a Kyushu filled with hatred.
Han Shengxuan and others also looked solemn.
Since ancient times, dealing with surrendered soldiers has been extremely troublesome.
Especially the soldiers who surrendered at the critical moment of war!
Gao Shun clasped his hands and said in a deep voice: "Twenty thousand trap camps are enough to suppress the situation!"
"Your Majesty, you only need to annihilate the Song Dynasty and capture Bianjing as soon as possible."
"I am confident that within a few months."
"Turn all these troops into the people of the Ming Dynasty!"
Long before this, Gao Shun had secretly inquired about the situation of these Song Dynasty soldiers.
These people did not really have much sense of belonging to the Song Dynasty.
This is not just because the Song Dynasty was founded only more than 20 years ago.
More importantly, it is because the Ming Dynasty is not a foreign race.
The Central Plains countries compete for hegemony.
In the eyes of these ordinary soldiers.
In fact, it is similar to the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period.
Especially those old soldiers who have experienced five generations have a strong ability to accept.
Back then, in that chaotic era.
Maybe he will surrender today.
Tomorrow we will be comrades.
This is also why many people feel that Shi Shouxin did this.
It’s not like the Song Dynasty was without surrendered generals.
When did these unruly warriors become the family generals of his Zhao family? !
This is even more true for Xianwu Three Kingdoms.
Whether in the early or late stages.
The surrendered soldiers were scattered or gathered at will.
The 20,000 Xianzhen Camp forcibly annexed 70,000 Song Dynasty soldiers.
It is indeed a bit troublesome.
But Gao Shun has rich experience in this area.
Zhu Houzhao nodded slightly: "Are you confident?"
If these surrendered soldiers could be gathered together.
That's a good thing then.
It can also greatly make up for the shortage of military forces in the Ming Dynasty.
After all, even with the Great Snow Dragon Cavalry and the Trap Camp.
But the army of the Ming Dynasty is still so weak that it is a bit scary.
This is a situation that has accumulated over the past few decades.
It was not that Zhu Houzhao could just let Changsun Wangqing and Yan Wenluan train soldiers at the border for a few months.
What's more, he has been on the throne till now.
It was only three months.
Gao Shun said in a resounding voice: "I have confidence."
Chen Zhibao and Xu Yanbing all glanced at Gao Shun.
They didn't say much.
Gao Shun's performance this time was extremely outstanding.
The momentum of breaking through the enemy's formation also made them truly recognize Gao Shun.
Cao Changqing and others had no objection at all.
This is how surrendered soldiers have been dealt with since ancient times.
Either they are killed in a trap or they are conquered.
Zhu Houzhao said: "Okay."
"I'll leave all matters here to you."
"Song Yuanqiao, you stay and assist Gao Shun."
Although Song Yuanqiao is from Wudang.
But he was able to manage Wudang in an orderly manner.
Obviously, he also has certain management capabilities.
The fortress also needs someone similar to a civil official to manage it.
Song Yuanqiao nodded quickly: "Yes, sir."
Zhu Houzhao gave a few more instructions calmly.
soon.
Everyone dispersed.
.....
When night falls.
Zhu Houzhao was served by Wang Yuyan and Huang Rong.
Open your eyes slowly.
He looked at the system again.
A sign-in was available yesterday.
But Zhu Houzhao was not in a hurry to sign in.
Now that you have some free time, you can sign in again.
"Sign in!"
