Chapter 759 Emperor Chongzhen’s plan

However, bows and arrows are different from Jinnu. The shooting speed of bows and arrows depends on the archer himself, and the speed of shooting is much faster than Jinnu. These archers in the new army are all excellent archers selected from the border armies. Their arm strength and bow and arrow skills are beyond words.

The charging Jianlu escaped from the first arrow, and even if they escaped from the second arrow, they were often shot over by the subsequent arrows.

At this time, it can be said that the arrows fired by the bows and arrows in front of the Ming army were as dense as the bullets fired by machine guns in later generations. Although they could not last long, they killed a large number of the charging Jianlu in a short period of time. For a moment, Jianlu was unable to take another step forward.

The bravery shown by the Ming army's archers finally changed the expressions of those Jianlu who rushed towards them screaming, and they no longer had that ferocious and courageous spirit. After all, everyone only has one life! The morale of Jianlu's charge was immediately suppressed.

This battle situation far exceeded everyone's expectations. Hai Lanzhu excitedly took Bu He's hand and said, "Eqi Ge, look, did you see it? Did you think it was so powerful?"

Most Mongolians have started to pick up bows and arrows since they were young. It can also be said that everyone is an archer. However, only a small number of them, who are strong and long-armed, can draw a hard bow and have the strength to shoot as many bows and arrows as possible in a short period of time.

But now they see that the archers in the Ming army are so capable, it is impossible not to be surprised! Bu He turned to look at his daughter, then immediately turned back to look at the battlefield. Seeing the morale of the Qing army declining, he suddenly had a vague feeling in his heart that maybe the Ming army could really defeat the Qing army in a field battle!

Hai Lanzhu was very happy at this time. When she saw that Eqi Ge did not respond, she really wanted to find someone to share her joy, so she immediately entered the chat group and privately chatted with Emperor Chongzhen: "Your Majesty, the two armies at the foot of Tushan are fighting. Our Ming army shot Jianlu and turned him upside down, it was so awesome!"

This war was actually ordered by Emperor Chongzhen. Naturally, he had been paying attention to the progress of the war. At this time, when I saw Hai Lanzhu's private chat and saw her say "We are the Ming Army", I couldn't help but laugh, this wife can do it!

Before he could reply, Hai Lanzhu's next private message was sent over: "Your Majesty, do you know that the new army can definitely defeat Jianlu? I am the same, but I, Qi Ge and the others were not optimistic about it at the beginning. , thinks our Ming army will lose, haha, he has nothing to say now!"

Emperor Chongzhen saw that this was what he wanted, so he replied to her: "I have great confidence in the new army, and I have chosen this combat time. You see, Jianlu's army is in short supply, so it's all about saving money." Eat. I guess Huang Taiji didn’t expect that a war would break out at this time. I estimate that it is possible that only the Jianlu at the front line have enough to eat, while the Jianlu in the camp may not have enough to eat... …”

Seeing these words, Hai Lanzhu couldn't help but be surprised, because her stomach reacted, and when she heard the word eating in her mind, she started to growl.

"I let the new army have a full meal first, and when they were almost rested, I suddenly launched this war when Jianlu was about to eat. From the beginning, the conditions for the decisive battle between the two sides were unequal, which increased the chance of victory. In addition, With the capabilities of this new army, I have no reason not to believe that the new army will win!"

Hai Lanzhu was very surprised when he heard this, and then subconsciously replied: "Your Majesty, you are so cunning... No, you are so powerful!"

Whether cunning or powerful, they were all compliments. Emperor Chongzhen didn't mind. He then replied to Hai Lanzhu: "After this war is won or lost, there is something you need to do. You can discuss it with your father. Let your father make arrangements."

Upon hearing this, Hai Lanzhu immediately lost the embarrassment of his blunder and immediately replied: "Your Majesty, tell me what it is, I will definitely let my Eqi Ge handle it!"

"Spread the news to the various tribes in Mongolia, saying that the Mongols who surrendered to the Ming Dynasty were not treated badly by the Ming Dynasty, such as the Chahar Tribe, the Tumote Tribe, etc. They have greenhouses for the winter in Guihua City, and With food for the winter, life is very good!”

Hai Lanzhu had never paid attention to this matter before, and was surprised when she heard this. However, since it was Emperor Chongzhen's golden words, she had no doubts and believed it immediately.

Hai Lanzhu was a smart man. After thinking about it for a moment, he immediately chatted privately and asked: "Your Majesty, do you want them to surrender to the Ming Dynasty?"

"Well, they have only one way out, which is to surrender to the Ming Dynasty. The leaders of various ethnic groups will be like the general manager of the Chahar tribe. They can be granted official positions in the Ming Dynasty, and they will be rich and worry-free. However, the herdsmen below must accept the reorganization of the Ming Dynasty. If they If you don’t believe it, you can send someone to Guihua City to see if what I say is true or false.”

The reason why Emperor Chongzhen brought up this matter at this time was because the governor of the Hetao, Hong Chengchou, reported something to him, that is, every time there was a big war in the Hetao, the cavalry from Qin and Jin must be mobilized in advance to make up for the Hetao area. The shortcoming of insufficient troops.

Once or twice is okay, but if it continues like this in the future, there will be problems. Moreover, if the enemy launches an attack in advance, then if the Guihua City side responds passively, this kind of borrowing troops will delay the big event. Therefore, Hong Chengchou put forward the request to expand the army in Hetao.

After receiving this request, Emperor Chongzhen also agreed with Hong Chengchou's view. In addition, there are some things that Hong Chengchou doesn't know yet, otherwise, this request may have been made long ago.

In Emperor Chongzhen's plan, Guihua City was just a fulcrum for the Ming Dynasty on the grassland. In the future, he would continue to send troops to conquer the Mongolian Khalkha tribe in the north, occupy Siberia, conquer the Oirat tribe of western Mongolia, and seize the Caucasus region. , occupy the oil and gas fields over there. It would be very difficult for the Han people in the Central Plains to carry out these wars. But it was not too difficult to reorganize the Mongols and go on an expedition. After all, their ancestors had already done it once and were quite familiar with it.

In the past, the conditions were not yet mature, so Emperor Chongzhen did not mention this matter. But now, he could control the situation outside Gaizhou City in real time through Hailanzhu. He knew that various Mongolian tribes had separated from Jianlu, and several of their hometowns had been raided by the Ming army. Once the myth that the Jianlu were invincible in field battles was dispelled and they saw with their own eyes that the Ming army defeated the Jianlu in the field, the best way out for the Mongolian tribes was to surrender to the Ming Dynasty as long as they did not want the tribe to perish.

And this is the real reason why the new army did not retreat immediately after seizing Tushan this time, but instead wanted to fight the Jianlu.

After hearing Emperor Chongzhen's request, Hailanzhu immediately agreed and went to discuss it with Buhe.
