Chapter 250 Preparing for War
When Xia Jing and Li Chengmu traveled, the bodyguards on their front and back and left and right were all armored knights, well-equipped, solemn and majestic.
Today, mother and son are preparing to leave the city and go to the Gyeonggi camp.
Li Chengmu felt a scorching gaze falling on him. He looked back and found the girl standing by the window with a gentle temperament and sweet appearance.But he only took one more look and then withdrew his gaze.
Xia Jing also noticed the girl. Judging from her dress, she must have come from the south. Her skin was white and rosy, delicate but not rough.
"Xiao Wu, have you noticed? Whenever you go out, there are many girls at the windows on both sides of the street. It seems that you are doing well in the capital!"
Facing his mother's teasing, Li Chengmu said without changing his expression: "They came here because of your son's identity. Do you want such a daughter-in-law?"
Xia Jing raised her eyes and glanced at the windows facing the street on both sides of the street. There were indeed many girls who were shy and half-hiding their faces. "Mother, I have no objection to this. As long as my son likes it, I will do anything. You choose your wife to be with you." If you don’t like being a resentful couple in your life, then that’s not beautiful!”
Regardless of whether he believed her words or not, Li Chengmu still thanked her and said, "Son, I would like to thank my mother for her support!"
"My son is eighteen years old. It's time to find a girl to get married. If you like someone, remember to tell your mother and she will help you propose marriage." Xia Jing glanced at the high-spirited young man next to her and silently recited Amitabha in her heart. , she urged the young seedlings to get married when they had just grown up, what a sin!
"Marriage is not a matter of urgency!" Li Chengmu refused without hesitation.
Xia Jing glanced at her son, who was not yet enlightened, and thought that this would be fine. She would get married in a few years, so he would be relatively mature.
Thinking of this, she turned her head and asked Ye Fei who was following her: "Since Xiao Wu returned to the capital, have the major aristocratic families sent their convoys back to the capital?"
Ye Fei raised his eyebrows: "You guessed it right. Since His Highness returned to Beijing, some aristocratic families have arranged for people to come to Beijing. One thing they have in common is that there are young ladies of the right age in the accompanying team returning to Beijing with them."
Xia Jing clicked her tongue after hearing this, "Xiao Wu, these ladies from aristocratic families are all here for you. Be careful when you go out recently, and stay out of other people's ways. If you are picked up by someone, you won't be able to get away."
After hearing this, Li Chengmu's face darkened and he said angrily: "Mother, are you still waiting for your son to order?"
Xia Jing was overjoyed when she saw that he was being pushed into a hurry by her: "Haha, okay, my mother wishes you to find the girl of your dreams as soon as possible!"
After leaving the city, the group speeded up and arrived at the location of the Gyeonggi Camp in less than half an hour.
After Zhenghe surrendered, he followed the border army on a raid deep into the grassland, and later followed him to the capital. He and the team he led had stayed in the Gyeonggi camp for half a month.
Xia Jing didn't say how to arrange them. They stayed at the Gyeonggi camp and trained every day.
As rebels, they have never had such a strong training program. In the past half month, it can be said that they have shed every layer of their skin in training.
But the gains are also huge. The physical fitness of the surrendered rebels has improved a lot.
When Xia Jing and her group appeared outside the Gyeonggi camp, Chi Zhongjun had good eyesight and immediately spotted the unique red military robes of Xia Jing's personal guard.
He trotted up to Zhenghe and said excitedly: "General, the empress is here! She finally appears!"
Zhenghe asked the brothers to train first. He looked up and saw Xia Jing leading the guard camp on horseback from the gate of the camp.
He said to Chi Zhongjun: "Let's go and pay our respects to the empress!"
As soon as Xia Jing entered the Gyeonggi camp, Feng Tu, who had returned with Li Chengmu, greeted her.
"The general has met your empress and your highness!"
"No courtesy!" Xia Jing was about to ask him how the training of the team led by Zhenghe was going when she saw Zhenghe and Chi Zhongjun walking over.
"The general has met your empress and your highness."
Xia Jing got off the horse, threw the reins to the guard next to her, and teased Zhenghe, "Excuse me, I haven't seen you impatient for half a month."
Zhenghe followed her words and replied: "The general spoke softly because he was afraid that the empress would have too many things to do, so he forgot about the general and the others. When he saw the empress coming, he became a little out of control and made the empress laugh! "
"Haha. What you said is fair and aboveboard!" Xia Jing turned around and walked towards the meeting hall, "Let's go in and talk about anything we have to say."
In the meeting hall of the camp, everyone took their seats.
Xia Jing glanced at Zhenghe and said to Feng Tu, "How are they training?"
Feng Tu smiled and replied: "We have strengthened their training. After half a month, no one has given up. Their performance is remarkable."
Xia Jing nodded after hearing this: "The autumn harvest has ended, and Beidi, who wants to come to the north, is ready to move again. Once you have reorganized your team, you will rush to the border to support the border army. So the harder we train you now, the more severe it will be to your lives." Responsible."
After hearing this, Zhenghe said gratefully: "The general understands that raising an army for a thousand days can only be used in one moment. The soldiers have no complaints about the training!"
"That's good."
After saying that, Xia Jing looked at Feng Tu: "Reorganize Zheng and his soldiers and disperse them into various battalions. Once they have passed the running-in period with the soldiers in the team, they will set off to garrison at the Great Wall Border Gate in Bingzhou. .”
"I will obey your orders!" Feng Tu clasped his fists.
Xia Jing looked at Zhenghe again and said: "Last time when we raided the grassland tribes in Youzhou, you performed well, so you were temporarily promoted from guerrilla to General Feng's deputy general, and Chi Zhongjun was promoted to guerrilla. I hope you arrive at the border. You can also obey orders and cooperate with the border troops to guard the border and don't let the Beidi Tatars break the border!"
After two years of hard work in Guan Nei, the people had just lived a peaceful life for a few days. She did not want to be destroyed by the Beidi Tatars again.
In fact, Xia Jing wanted to train a cavalry force to attack Beidi. However, due to the current situation of Dayu, one must first calm down the enemy.
At present, Dayu must concentrate all his efforts to pacify the rebels in the Qing and Yan states. Only when the country is stable can he devote his energy to dealing with foreign enemies.
At the same time, the rebels in Qingyan and Qingzhou have gathered rebels from the two states, including two thousand newly trained musketeers.
However, two thousand musketeers, if they had flintlock guns, would be quite powerful.
But they were all newly trained, and the matchlock guns were eliminated by the imperial court. Although they were powerful, they were not to be feared.
Qingzhou assembled troops and arranged to defend the border between Jizhou and Youzhou in Qingzhou.
Yanzhou also assembled troops to defend the border between Jizhou and Yuzhou in Yanzhou.
The 30-strong rebel army and the puppet imperial court claimed to have a -strong army. They sent troops on a large scale, apparently hoping to launch a major counterattack before it snowed in winter.
The imperial court has always been ready to move against the rebels in Qingzhou and Yanzhou, and it also wants to put down the rebels of the puppet imperial court in one fell swoop when the autumn is high.
The autumn harvest is over, and the food from both sides has entered the granary. There is no need to worry about food and grass. It is the perfect time for the two sides to fight.
The whole nation of the puppet court was focused on this attack. Even Prince Ning, who had been hiding behind the rebels as an invisible man, became nervous and rushed to the front of the battle to cheer for the rebels.
The puppet Prince Ning and Tan Lang were inseparable in the military camp. Tan Lang was always one step behind Prince Ning in front of others. In fact, everyone knew that Tan Lang had the final say and had the final say in everything in Qingyan and Yanzhou.
Qin Lang knew the situation on the border between Qingzhou and Yanzhou very well, and they must win this counterattack.
The imperial court understood the dynamics of the rebels on the front line, and Li Jingfu was very self-aware. He handed over the command of the front line to Xia Jing, and sent newly recruited troops to the front line, under the command of the commander appointed by Xia Jing.
Xia Jing received Jiankang's letter and said to Li Chengmu: "Does your father act like a hands-off shopkeeper?" Li Chengmu scratched his nose and did not dare to tell the truth, so he could only console him: "Father, He has always placed great trust in you, and the fact that he dares to hand over his military power to you shows that he is devoted to you without any second thoughts."
Xia Jing's teeth were sour after hearing this. If she was single-minded for no other reason, whoever believed such words would be a fool.
Although she is not in Jiankang, she still knows the situation in Jiankang very well. Li Jingfu listens to her and respects her in all important matters.
However, he was always hugged and hugged in Jiankang. He was quite old and didn't understand health care at all.Recently I heard that there is a beauty in his harem who is very happy.
Adding an heir is considered a big deal, right? Didn't she see Li Jingfu inform her about it?
Not wanting to talk about Li Jingfu's romance, Xia Jing talked about counterinsurgency.
"In the battle against rebellion, I am going to hand over all frontline decision-making power to the Dragon Supervisor Army. Do you have any objections to this?"
Long Yutian was seriously regarded as his military advisor, and he had no objection to Xia Jing's arrangements for Li Chengmu. After all, Long Yutian's reputation as a rival to Zhuge was not in vain.
He is extremely trustworthy when it comes to people with real abilities doing things.
"Everything is entirely up to the Queen Mother's arrangement. We all have seen the capabilities of the Dragon Supervisor Army, and I have no objection to this."
Since her son had no objection, Xia Jing sent a letter to Long Yutian who was far away in Jizhou.
Also sent with the letter were pieces of ordnance and equipment recently built by the Military War Bureau, all of which were equipped by Long Yutian for new recruits.
The imperial army's anti-rebellion army was well-equipped with well-equipped ordnance and well-trained. In particular, the power of the fusiliary gun battalions and steel artillery battalions should not be underestimated, and their lethality against the rebels was even more astonishing.
This large-scale counter-insurgency campaign was an almost predictable victory.
The difference between prediction and reality is probably that there are some discrepancies in the incalculable number of casualties between the two armies.
One hundred thousand troops marched to the border of Yangzhou and Yanzhou.
The people in Jiankang City and nearby heard the news, and they went out of the city to see him off when they had time.
Looking at the backs of the army heading out for battle, everyone was very excited and secretly worried. They prayed that this time they would be victorious in every battle, and that the two states of Qing and Yan would be pacified as soon as possible, and that the people would have a stable living environment.
"It seems that the emperor is determined to pacify the Qing and Yan states!"
"You said that when you return from this expedition, the world should be at peace, right?"
"Things on the battlefield are changing rapidly. No one dares to draw conclusions about things that have no results. I just hope that this time it will be successful!"
The people finally settled down, and no one wanted Dayu to experience internal and external troubles again.
"I heard that the general who is commanding the counter-rebellion this time is called Sai Zhuge. He is a man whose strategy is not inferior to that of Zhuge. With him taking command, there should be no problem!"
"People call him Sai Zhuge. He is really better than Kong Ming. You are too naive."
"Brother, which side are you from? Don't you think highly of him?"
"I don't think it's useful. If he is really capable, we will wait and see the result of the counter-insurgency. If this counter-insurgency succeeds, then I will be convinced if you call him Sai Zhuge from now on!"
"Hey! Does it matter whether you are convinced or not? Others are still the coaches favored by the emperor and empress!"
Despite the people's quarrels, in fact, everyone didn't have much worry in their hearts, because according to the current situation of the court, it had slowly recovered from the corruption.
They believed that the Yu Dynasty would prosper in the near future.
While both the rebels and the imperial court were nervously preparing for war, no one expected that a fleet was slowly approaching Qingzhou Pier.
Lingshan Guard, surrounded by mountains in the northwest and surrounded by the sea in the southeast, with Lingdao screen in front and the Great Wall behind, was an important coastal defense post during the Yu Dynasty and an important military fortification to defend against pirates and foreign barbarians.
After the rebels occupied Qingzhou, they have focused their main efforts on fighting against the imperial soldiers and horses, and have not paid enough attention to the guard posts along the coast.
For them, the imperial soldiers and horses are their biggest enemies.
When the rebel troops and the imperial troops faced off at the border between Qingyan and Jiyang Youzhou, dozens of large ships appeared on the sea under the jurisdiction of Lingshan Guard.
If there were soldiers stationed at Lingshan Guards at this time, they would be surprised to see the ships appearing on the sea.
The flag of this fleet is Li. With so many large ships appearing on the coast, it is obvious that they are coming from bad intentions!
After these ships docked at the dock, many soldiers quickly disembarked from the ships.
These soldiers will be in good spirits when they get off the ship. It can be seen from their mental appearance that these soldiers have long been accustomed to life at sea.
Judging from the flags of this fleet, those familiar with it must have figured out that this fleet is Li Dingguo's troops. It belongs to the Nanyang Naval Corps and is directly under the jurisdiction of Xia Jing, who is specifically responsible for the military jurisdiction of Nanyang and some surrounding areas.
Some of the officers were left to guard the fleet, while the other officers prepared and set off. Their mission this time was to stab the Qingzhou rebels in the back.
One stab misses the vital point, and another stab will always make you bleed, seriously injured or fatal.
In fact, coming from Nanyang to Lingshan Guards Station was considered an expedition.
"Actually, the expedition consumes a lot of food and fodder. It will be very difficult to resupply later. I wonder what the situation is like on the front line?"
Niu Debao said as he walked with a big knife on his shoulder.
He was originally stationed in Lingnan and was the commander-in-chief of Jieyang Guard Station in Lingnan. This time, in response to Xia Jing's order, he cooperated with Li Dingguo in carrying out a sneak attack behind the enemy, and came over by boat with his troops and horses.
Li Dingguo sent someone to check the situation at the Lingshan Guardhouse. After listening to his words, he turned back and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Niu. Your Majesty will definitely think carefully about this arrangement."
What he didn't say was that, except for the team transporting Niu Debao, other ships at sea contained a lot of food.
It is enough to ensure their supplies, and there are still many who need to supply food and grass to the imperial soldiers and horses.
This is also one of their missions this time, to conduct a sneak attack behind the enemy's back.
Second, by the way, they brought supplies of food and grass to the imperial soldiers and horses.
Of course, there was food and fodder on the ship, but Li Dingguo still didn't tell Niu Debao. It wasn't that he didn't trust him, but it was just that the fewer people knew about his trump card before the war, the safer it would be!
If the enemy found out and burned his ship, he wouldn't even be able to cry!
After getting off the boat, Ye Buzuo went ahead to inquire about the news, while the soldiers who got off the boat began to organize their troops.
When the army here is finished, Ye Bu will be the fastest to take it back.
"General, the front guard station is deserted. Except for a few villagers from the fishing village, there is no one else!"
After hearing this, Li Dingguo laughed and said: "It's sad to say that the guardhouses of three thousand households are so abandoned. What do you think will happen if Japanese bandits and pirates come today?"
