Chapter 263 Total Annihilation "Your Excellency is becoming more and more idle." Zhan Ming asked: "Your Excellency, don't you want to go to court?" "Lazy. Look at how busy Li Xiang is, I have no interest in it." Ouyang asked: "What about you? Do you plan to become a serious military general?" "I have been infected by adults, and I have no intention of doing so." Zhan Ming asked: "Sir, is the war about to begin?" "I don't know the specific time, but this year An all-out war will begin soon." Ouyang sighed: "I hope that the Liao and Jin Dynasties can be solved once and for all. If we can destroy Mongolia, we can ensure the prosperity of the Song Dynasty for hundreds of years." "For thousands of years, nomadic people have repeatedly threatened our country. In the past dynasties, marriage was the main thing, and it only lasted for a hundred years before they came again. It was better to use the word drag to cross them. " "The nomadic people are not like the Han people. They have been hunting, archery and riding since they were young. "They are in good health and have good horsemanship. But they have few people." Ouyang said: "If they continue to use troops and force them to keep all the people in the army and stop production, their system will collapse. The prerequisite is that they have a strong economy." The production strength ensures uninterrupted use of troops. For example, this time, even if the more than one million forbidden troops are defeated, the Liao and Jin countries can only survive. If the emperor has the courage to issue a conscription order, the Liao and Jin will be destroyed. It is a classic tactic of World War II. The German army was extremely powerful and attacked the Soviet Union. The Soviet Union almost exhausted its war resources, including manpower, and exhausted Germany's war capabilities. The Allies restricted the flow of supplies to Germany, leaving the German army with insufficient support, thus delaying the war. The Cold War was even more classic. The United States used Star Wars lies and the arms race to drag down the Soviet Union. A country¡¯s continued war capabilities depend not only on its military, but also on its domestic production capabilities. People have an absolute advantage, and what Ouyang does is to turn the advantage into victory. Of course, the birth of a large number of generals and regular military operations also greatly improved the combat capabilities and strategic level of the Forbidden Army. The war machine of the Song Dynasty has matured. There is no war to fight, but it will cause great trouble to those who serve in the war. ¡°Everyone, rest. "Liang Hongyu appeared on the deck and stopped the training of the soldiers. Ouyang said to Zhan Ming: "The Jurchens are very stubborn and cannot persuade them to put down their weapons. Although the Khitan people are currently relatively strong in overall strength, chewing on the Jurchen bone is a real trouble. " Liang Hongyu came over and asked with a smile: "What? Do you want to bribe the Liao Kingdom again? " "A problem that can be solved with money is not a problem. Ouyang said: "As long as their price is right, why not buy it?" " Liang Hongyu asked: "Can I buy it? " "It might work. The Khitans are no longer the Khitans they used to be. Their soldiers are very incompetent. You will know just by watching a few battles in Laizhou. Ouyang said: "The Military Aircraft Department reported that the Liao people are no longer in danger." Emperor Tianzuo is now discussing moving the capital to Tokyo. And their prime minister Li Chuwen has quietly contacted Tong Guan. The ministers were also in disarray. Although there are still hundreds of thousands of soldiers, their combat effectiveness is quite poor. Liang Hongyu said: "In fact, the worst thing about Liao is that there are no generals. Except for Yelu Dashi, there is no one who is better at fighting." " Ouyang asked: "How is their coach Ye Luchun now? " "Maybe he is not afraid of death, but his ability is average. Yelu Chun was pretty good at doing internal affairs, but he had never led an army, so he really had nothing to fear. Liang Hongyu said: "I agree with you. The place where the Jurchens live is mountainous and cold." The Custodes' firearms were difficult to use. The Jurchens had many famous generals, and Wanyan Wu Qipai was also a wise king who appointed virtuous people. Therefore, the Jurchens are much harder to fight than the Liao people. " "Jurchens" Ouyang looked at the sea for a while and said, "Actually, it's not that they can't be bribed. They have many tribes. The Wanyan tribe is divided into twelve tribes, as well as the Changbai Mountain tribe, the Five Kingdoms tribe, and so on. They are also divided into Jurchens and Jurchens. They were able to unite because of Wanyan Aguda. Wanyan Aguda did not rely entirely on persuasion, but also conquered some tribes. Moreover, before raising the army, Wanyan tribe also destroyed other tribes in order to capture Hai Dongqing. " Liang Hongyu asked: "What are your thoughts? " "I want the imperial court to organize a Jurchen Forbidden Army. You don¡¯t need many people, just five thousand is enough. If used correctly, it can create a rift in their unity. " "Isn't it? If you use Jurchens to fight Jurchens, I'm afraid the court won't be at ease. "Zhan Ming knows the source of the troops Ouyang mentioned. "They are familiar with the local terrain, and we can promise them benefits so that they can bring all their relatives from their families or tribes to the Song Dynasty. Once a tribe agrees to migrate, it is inevitable that the Jurchens will begin to doubt each other. As for your worry about it, in fact, comparing the two, the benefits far outweigh the risks. From the perspective of us businessmen, it is definitely possible to do it. After all, even if these five thousand people betray us, we only have five thousand more enemies with swords. But if it works, we'llThe alliance between the Jurchen tribes south of Huanglong Mansion could be broken up without large-scale war. It's worth the gamble. " "Yes" Liang Hongyu nodded: "This is indeed a way. "Even if you can't help with anything, at least there are guides everywhere, and you can understand the personality characteristics of the Jurchens of various tribes. The next day was sunny and windy, and ten ships of the Hangzhou fleet entered the port of Tianyin Town at Liang Hongyu. In There are many ships parked in the port, including merchant ships, transport ships and warships of the Hangzhou fleet. There are also many small docks in the port, and ships are transported by small boats. The Song Dynasty lacked precious ginseng, noble mink and other items. Both Korea and Jurchen have these two products. Neither the imperial court nor the business association prohibits Goryeo's commercial trade, so this place is still relatively prosperous. Of course, if there was no such situation, Goryeo would not send patrols everywhere to attack the troublemakers. Very wide, Liang Hongyu's fleet left the port's sight after searching for enemies. Ouyang once again proved the importance of wisdom and luck. He guessed right. Meeting in the captain's conference room, Liang Hongyu said: "Although they are all mixed together, at least they are sure. There are signs that three ships were attacked by heavy artillery. And the captain written on the bow of one ship is from my original headquarters, in these three positions. "A staff officer reported: "There are six more suspicious ships, and the captains have never heard of them. " Ouyang said: "Make no mistake, the Jurchens are seven ships, not nine ships. Many new generals have been promoted in the past two years. It¡¯s not surprising that I don¡¯t know him. "The fleet is quite special. Ten ships patrol in a formation, not to mention that Liang Hongyu's troops may not recognize them. Even Yue Fei's two formations may not recognize all the ships. In addition, the fleet has four military docks in the Song Dynasty, which are assigned The missions are different, and it is possible that they have never met before. Liang Hongyu nodded and said: "Order No. 1, 2, and 3 to enter the port, watch each ship, and watch them to death. Send a small boat into the harbor and check the supply list to see which ships are coming together. If discovered by them, Numbers 1, 2, and 3 will attack immediately. "A staff officer asked: "What if there is a fight and our warships don't know the situation and help the enemy ships? " "Once the battle begins, all lookouts will identify themselves and no warships will be allowed to participate in the battle. "Liang Hongyu said: "No. 4 and No. 5, roam around the outside and attack any warships leaving the port. "" Ouyang smiled bitterly on the deck: "I don't think there is any need to send someone to check the supplies." "Liang Hongyu's ship No. 1, 2, and 3 had just arrived, and there began to be some commotion in the port. At least two ships began to weigh anchor. Liang Hongyu turned around and came back. Of course she suspected something was wrong. And the person being guarded by ship No. 1 was also weighing anchor. Liang Hongyu immediately ordered to open fire. . The first round of shelling frightened all the Jurchens who were beaten. Although the cannons were only 30% of the ship, they were very destructive. A big hole was ripped open in the central hull. This is the power of Yangping Military Factory's explosive shells. The Jurchen ship was in chaos, and all the anchored ships were in chaos. Everyone weighed anchor to prepare to avoid this inexplicable battle. The lookouts on the eight ships that Liang Hongyu entered the port did not announce the order, but all signaled: "The Liang ship is coming." Attack Jurchen ships, and all warships are prohibited from participating in the battle. " And a Jurchen ship issued a semaphore: "The Yue ship is being attacked by the Jurchens, asking for support in counterattack. " The people on the warship were confused. Who is telling the truth? At this time, a troop transport ship issued a flag: "I am Zhang Jun, the commander of Hebei East Road. All parked warships are not allowed to attack, but can counterattack. "At this time, Zhang Jun's talent was shown. He couldn't understand which was true and which was false, so he simply stopped the warships in the port. Order in the port was quickly maintained. Zhang Jun's famous army had heard about it. In the battle at Laizhou, the Hangzhou fleet provided considerable help. Zhang Jun then ordered: "The familiar warships slowly moved closer to protect each other's merchant ships and troop transports. " The situation immediately improved, and the scene turned into Liang Hongyu's fleet chasing Jurchen ships. The flagship lookout shouted: "Five Jurchen warships have been confirmed, and two of them began to flee. " Ouyang shouted and asked: "Are there two more ships? " "Unable to confirm. "The lookout hand flagged: "Liang ship, don't get close, don't get close. " "Get ready to fight." The female vice-captain shouted. Ouyang turned around and saw three warships coming towards the flagship. Ouyang Khan: "If these three ships are the Jurchen fleet, then the five previously confirmed ships seem to have Problem. " Zhan Ming also sweated: "Which ship is the mistake? " " Those who fight back will definitely not. Ouyang said: "The semaphores of the three counterattack ships all requested support and protection from external warships." If it was a misunderstanding, it must have been a warship from the Hangzhou fleet that was showing off to the warships at war. Zhan Ming nodded, that was indeed what he said: "Does that mean there is something wrong with the two escaping ships?" " "It seems that a courageous gangster has become the captain."?" As soon as he said this, the hull shook. The flagship bomb. The four ships near the flagship had been prepared and came to support early. They opened fire as soon as they entered the range. For a while, the port was filled with loud gunfire and smoke. And the two ships patrolling the periphery were wandering around. One ship after another captured a fleeing target and attacked. Although one ship signaled that it was the Yue Ship Headquarters, the patrol ship remained unmoved. The order he received was to attack all warships leaving the port. , attracted the attention of the port ships, docks, and even the people of Tianyin Town. Although news had just spread about the bloody battle in the Sea of ??Japan, everyone was not intuitive after all. Only now that they saw this momentum, they understood what a cruel naval battle was. This time, it was not just a deck battle in the Sea of ??Japan, but mostly an artillery battle. The accuracy of the artillery battle was very low. According to historical records, Mongolia once had a two-day artillery battle with the Southern Song Navy, but both sides suffered losses. Very little. Without aiming tools, we can only rely on experience and feel, and of course luck. The No. 1 ship suddenly attacked due to its proximity, and took advantage of it. The first batch of explosive bombs caused extensive damage to the enemy's hull, causing serious water damage. The No. 1 ship then turned the rudder and made full use of the forts on both sides to pursue the enemy ship. It sank the enemy ship first and immediately went to support the nearest No. 2 ship. The ship was the only one to engage in deck warfare. It was also a helpless choice to avoid the merchant ship. But after the No. 1 ship quickly joined, it started a major counterattack. Among all the ships, the flagship suffered the greatest pressure. Identity, the Jurchens vowed to sink the flagship, and two ships even tried to take over despite the obstruction of other ships. However, they forgot that this was the flagship, which not only had the fewest gunners, but also had the most shells. After playing a few rounds of solid bombs, he immediately ordered to switch to explosive bombs. He turned the rudder and bombarded the Jurchen ship that was nearly 100 meters away. A huge hole was opened in the Jurchen ship's bow, and the other ship began to sink without any discussion. It's not much better. Using solid bullets and well-stocked blooming bullets is simply asking for death. A solid bullet will make a hole, and a shell will make a big hole, and it will cause huge damage to the people in the ship. , a non-exploding cannonball will cause little damage to the enemy, but an exploding cannonball will be almost fatal. The tragic Qing Dynasty's artillery shells were not as good as the Ming Dynasty. This battle lasted from morning to afternoon. , it took more than two hours to capture one ship, sink six ships, and completely wipe out the enemy. After investigation, it was found that the ship that surrendered was indeed the ship of Yue Fei's headquarters. The fight was so fierce that he immediately lifted anchor and ran away out of fear, only to be beaten half to death by the patrol ship. This was called an incompetent general who exhausted all the troops. Zongze at the dock said that he would report the matter and demand that Yue Fei be prosecuted for the crime of unclear employment. Punishment was imposed on the escaped captain. This matter was given to Han Shizhong of Laizhou for his decision. These two battles not only destroyed the Jurchen warships, but also established the reputation of the Hangzhou fleet. Although the loss was heavy, it was still worth it in the eyes of Ouyang and others. Zongze naturally asked why Ouyang came, but Ouyang said that he was bored and took the Hangzhou fleet ship to Laizhou. He heard that the Jurchen warships were going to be destroyed, so he followed him. Zongze didn't say anything and reported it to Han Shizhong. Ouyang believed that Han Shizhong would not report it to the court again. If you want to report, it will only be a secret report. Over the past few days, most of the Hebei road troops have been in place, and some have been pushed to the border to camp and be on guard. The seven Jurchen tribes in Changbai Mountain gave up production, and all the people gathered together as soldiers. Prepare for the Song attack. The strength of the Hebei Army and Route Army with the first strategic step in place has reached 150,000, and 60,000 new troops will be added in the next few months. Their task was to contain the Changbai Mountain Department in the north and the Huibo Department in the west. These two places were the rear areas of Wanyan Wu's begging production and were also important sources of business and economy. Ouyang was originally worried that Liang Hongyu would encounter another bloody battle in the Sea of ??Japan, but according to the current situation, there is basically no possibility of Liang Hongyu dying unless she encounters a major typhoon. Ouyang also gave up the idea of ??persuading Liang Hongyu to disarm, but he was still a little dissatisfied: Why couldn't Liang Hongyu propose to disarm and go home? Before Ouyang left Korea, he met Zhang Jun and Xue Bing. Xue Bing was also transferred. Ouyang talked about his idea of ??recruiting five thousand Jurchens at the wine table: "You can go into battle without training. If everything goes well, you can reach the front line in more than three months." Xue Bing agreed: "The Jurchens are very Resist foreigners. Even the Su Jurchens are relatively resistant. It should be easier if they have help. In the battle of Liao and Jin, there were very few Jurchen captives. This is also the reason. "There are a total of seventy-two Jurchen tribes, and some of the Jurchen tribes in the Liao Dynasty. He was forcibly moved to Liaoning and given the title of Liao nationality. These are called Su Jurchens. "Since both of you have agreed, naturally I will be the one to list it." Although Zhang Jun couldn't see any benefit, he couldn't see it either.What's the disadvantage: "At least someone will be a guide in the future." "That's the truth. General Zhang and General Xue have lived in the Kingdom of Jin for many years. They know the Jurchens very well and are familiar with their language. You should listen more when the time comes. General Xue¡¯s opinion.¡± Zhang Jun clasped his fists and said, ¡°Sir, I, Zhang Jun, do have a bad reputation, but I am definitely someone who can listen to good advice. Don¡¯t worry, sir.¡± Zhang Jun¡¯s military ability is quite reassuring. , and are willing to listen to what others have to say and accept their opinions. Although he participated in the frame-up of Yue Fei in history, it was still the emperor's idea after all. According to the values ????at that time, it was incorrect for you to harm the emperor instead of harming Yue Fei. Moreover, there are many objective reasons for Yue Fei's murder. ¡ Ouyang¡¯s journey to the east finally came to an end, and he headed north back to Yangping. On his way back, the long-planned battle against Jin finally began, known as the Battle of Changbai Mountain. In the same month, the battle against Liao was also launched in full swing, known as the Battle of Jinzhou. Although the names are loud, the strength of the enemies in these two places cannot represent the strength of the two countries. At most, they are some miscellaneous armies. Both sides gave up some territory as a buffer zone for the Song army to start the war in preparation for adjusting their strategies. However, the Song Army's war machine was already in operation. Businessmen are responsible for most of the logistics lines dedicated to military production. Needless to say, weapons, clothes, shoes, armor, and helmets. Some elites are also equipped with leather combat boots. Yangping Logistics is responsible for a lot of transportation, and maritime merchants are also involved in maritime transportation. These are all things on the surface. In addition, they indirectly drive the consumption of raw materials, such as iron ore, cotton, linen, silk, leather, etc., forming a certain industrial chain. There are even more Song people who serve in war logistics. In millions.
