Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The waves of the waves hit the cliff, breaking into sparkling water drops in the sunlight after hitting one after another on the cliff.  On the top of the cliff, two hundred "cavalry" armed with flintlock guns were moving quickly.

    These two hundred men rode on fat war horses, wearing standard gray military uniforms and black leather boots, and carried an exquisite South China Sea flintlock gun on their backs.  Between the two hundred men was a chariot with four horses. If you look carefully, you will find that the chariot covered with thick sea cloth is actually a small cannon.

    This unit maintained a high degree of alert during the movement. A dozen mounted scouts with small flags on their backs were scouting around and patrolling the surrounding area.

    In fact, this was a raid training by the Gaishui Camp. They crossed the sea from three landing points to the Liaodong Peninsula and attacked Nanxukou eighty miles away.  This small force is the second division of the Xiaozi Banner that is leading the way.

    A scout rushed over. He pulled out the Gaishui Camp scout flag on his back and waved it twice in his left hand when he was still a hundred meters away from the queue.  The soldiers confirmed his identity and made a way for him to ride directly in front of "General Qian" of the two hundred troops.

    "Report! Ten miles ahead is Nanxinkou. There are no invincible soldiers and hundreds of fleeing Liao people. The third division in the south is on the right wing of our division, two miles away."

    President Qian of the Second Division of the Xiaozi Banner nodded. He looked back and saw that the breastplates and helmets of the two hundred mounted musketeers shone a dazzling white in the sunlight.  Years of intensive training and adequate nutrition have made these soldiers strong and tough, and the night school cultural classes and generous military pay have also boosted their morale.

    Mr. Qian believes that he will win the first place in this training.

    "Speed ??up and get to the flood gate ahead of the Third Division!"

    The entrance was originally a frontier fortress in Dongjiang Town of the Ming Dynasty. However, in recent years, the Dongjiang Town system has been chaotic and self-defeating, and this += fortress has long been abandoned.  Now the attention of the Hou Jin and Ming armies is on Gyeonggi, leaving the sparsely populated Liaodong Peninsula unattended.  Against this background, the Gaishui Battalion boldly set foot on the Liaodong Peninsula to conduct this force-crossing assault training.

    The first one to arrive at Nankou "Si" can have extra meals in the evening.  Add a pot of soju for every four people.  A banquet of wild game.  Of course, it¡¯s not just the bonus of extra meals that outshines others during training.  Can gain an additional infantry support four-pounder gun.  Enhance "Division" assault firepower.  not only.  You can also get King Dong to give a few words of praise at the conference.  This will give the unit a greater sense of honor.

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? etc. Rewards the soldiers in training for their full efforts from material to spiritual rewards.  They launched an attack on the first place.  But things always don't go as planned.  Bad news about competitors soon came:

    "Report. The first division of Yongzi Banner appears on the right wing. Banner general Chang Wenguang personally led the team to take a side road and crossed the third division of our flag. Now rush to Nanxunkou."

    The tall Mr. Qian glared and cursed.  "The idiot Chang Wenguang is playing dirty again! Does he look like a flag general? I will fight hard! The whole company attacks! Enter the Nanxinkou as quickly as possible!"

    "The King of the East has said it. Capture a Liao citizen for one tael of silver. Brothers, give it to me!"

    Two hundred soldiers shouted in unison.  He rode his horse and rushed towards the destination of the exercise training ground.

    Flags were fluttering on the seaside plain three miles behind the Second Division of the Xiao Zi Banner, and a terrifyingly orderly cavalry formation galloped across the field.  This is the elite of the Chinese army led by Qin Mingtao, who is also rapidly advancing towards the south flood entrance.  Qin Mingtao attached great importance to this exercise-like training, and Li Jinxi and several other counselors also followed.

    Qin Mingtao was very satisfied with the performance of the entire battalion - looking at it today, the exercise was a success, and all five thousand soldiers had mastered the basic cavalry advance.  Now Gaishui Camp has nearly 10,000 horses, including 5,000 war horses: enough to launch long-distance raids and attack the enemy's core areas when necessary.

    Looking at the sea to the west, Qin Mingtao thought of something again and asked Li Jinxi, "Is the general Kong Youde who changed his color when he mentioned Cao Wenzhao really so brave?"

    Li Jinxi thought for a while and said, "This man is from Datong. In the past two years, he has been fighting against the refugee army in the northwest. He led 3,000 Liao cavalry and cut through millions of refugees as if he were entering an uninhabited land. This man is not only brave, but also good at using  He has defeated the enemy with deception many times, and he is really a good general that is hard to find in thousands of armies. Now, when thieves of all sizes hear the word "Cao", their expressions change, and they are driven around by him like sheep."

    "His three thousand cavalry troops are about to arrive in Beijing now. I'm afraid of His Highness's plan in Gyeonggi"

    Qin Mingtao thought for a while and simply asked, "Have Cao Wenzhao ever fought with Huang Taiji?"

    Li Jinxi has never been used to some of the terms used by the Five Kings of the South China Sea that are different from ordinary people. For example, calling Huang Taiji Huang Taiji made him very uncomfortable.  He didn't know that this was the customary name for Huang Taiji in later generations. He just wondered why a group of northern Liao Tatars were given such a noble title as "Emperor".  But since King Dong was used to saying this, Li Jinxi had no choice but to change his tune.

    "Cao Wenzhao has been in Liaodong for a long time, and has worked under Xiong Tingbi and Sun Chengzong. He won more battles with the Tatars than lost, but he used to have a low position and was defeated.? Most of the issues should be decided by the emperor, or by the Minister of War. The three generals are just generals in charge of the army. It is really not professional enough to consider the overall situation of advance and retreat.  None of the three people spoke, but they were in a state of silence for a while.

    Chongzhen¡¯s face was a little ugly, his eyes swept around the three people, and finally stopped on Cao Wenzhao.

    Unlike other generals, Cao Wenzhao always lived alone in Gansu and Shaanxi. He fought very hard and rarely considered issues such as the support of friendly forces. He was accustomed to formulating his own advance and retreat strategies.  It was precisely because he was so independent and fought so well that he rose through the ranks so quickly.

    After thinking for a while, Cao Wenzhao cupped his hands and replied, "The general thought that the Tatars were running out of food and grass after thousands of miles of attack. Now that Shanhaiguan is still there, the Tatars only have the Xifengkou line to transport food and grass. If it is cut off, the situation in the capital will be serious."  There¡¯s something to be gained.¡±

    Chongzhen¡¯s eyes lit up when he heard this. He looked up and down at this middle-aged warrior and fell in love with him more and more.  Chongzhen nodded and said with a smile, "I knew General Cao had a plan."

    Chongzhen was really annoyed with the troublesome Sun Chengzong, and said generously, "I intend to use Cao Wenzhao to command all the troops outside the capital to coordinate and dispatch this bandit trouble What do you think?"

    Cao Wenzhao did make a name for himself in Gansu and Shaanxi. He used tactics to defeat the enemy several times, but he was not a master who only knew how to charge.  The other two generals looked at each other, raised their hands and replied, "Your Majesty, General Cao is brave and wise. We are willing to obey his orders."

    Cao Wenzhao still wanted to give in, but Chongzhen had already called in the eunuch Wang Chengen.  This little father-in-law happened to have the same name as Wang Chengen, the commander-in-chief of Yansui who was here, so he couldn't help but take a second look.

    Chongzhen stood up in high spirits and said loudly, "Give the three generals a royal meal and mink fur to show their appreciation for their progress! Go and tell the chief minister that I will make Cao Wenzhao the governor of the left and the governor of Beizhi outside the capital."  Subordinate to the armies."

    "The army of King Qin has arrived. This time I will defeat the little thief Huang Taiji in one fell swoop."
