"Commander Fang, I will say it again, if your Guards Division fights like this again next time! Go back to the capital! If you don't use tactics with small casualties, it will show your ability, right? There were more than a thousand casualties in the battle, most of them
Most of them are fearless and sacrifice themselves. With such an undisciplined fighting style, how can you let me lead the troops?" In Ningyuan City, Ma Youliang gave Fang Zhenghua a lesson in front of the frontline generals!
"Commander, Fang is not strict in commanding the troops, and he will be punished! Fang promises not to make such a mistake next time." Fang Zhenghua is currently the only eunuch-born military commander in the Ming army. In fact, he faces various challenges.
The pressure was very high. In this battle, he had been cautious, for fear that other generals would look at him through colored glasses.
But when it came time to attack Ningyuan City, what was supposed to happen happened! As soon as the battle began, he lost control of the officers and soldiers below him. It was really not his idea to attack Ningyuan City with the city-climbing style.
Help the young officers who are seventeen or eighteen years old, as soon as the order to attack the city comes, they are red-eyed! With blood rushing to their heads, they use brute force to attack. At that time, no one's military orders can be used.
"Your unit will be responsible for cleaning up the enemy fortresses around Ningyuan in the next time, as well as the remnants of the enemy on the front line of Ningyuan and Guangning, and clearing up the battlefield behind the army. Just temper your temper!" Ma Youliang has now figured out what happened.
It is useless to know the causes and consequences of this kind of thing. With a team like the Guards Division, coupled with Ning Yuancheng's special status, no one can control this kind of thing.
They are all a bunch of 17 or 18-year-old young men, and they are all the emperor's guards. They have been trained since childhood and have been under the care of the Holy Grace. People in Ningyuan City have more or less blood feuds with them. They are in the war together. These guys are not
It's weird to be angry. I also blame myself. When I made the decision in the first place, I should have tried hard to prevent them from playing forward.
Fortunately, these guys have good fighting will and basic tactical literacy. They are not as good as most of the Guards. Otherwise, something unexpected will happen this time! Move them to the back and temper them for a while.
Besides suppressing their irritability, we can't give them another chance to act recklessly.
Once Ningyuan City was defeated, the army would face Huludao, Guishan Port and Bijia Mountain. The atmosphere on the front line of Jinzhou became unprecedentedly tense. After several years after the defeat in the Battle of Songshan, the Ming Dynasty finally began the battle to regain its homeland.
"Currently, Ningyuan has been captured in the middle battlefield, and the battles on the north and south roads are also progressing. Judging from the current development, the situation is developing in the direction we expect. If the middle road presses on the Jinzhou front line again, by the end of the year
Once Jinzhou is restored, the war situation will become clearer. Your Majesty, does the military command hall need to pass on another order to Commander Ma so that he can regain Jinzhou as soon as possible?" From the capital headquarters, Huang Degong marked the situation after the war started on the map, and then
Please ask the emperor if he can urge Ma Youliang again to make his movements faster.
Ma Youliang's progress on this road is a bit fast. It is a little unexpected that Ningyuan City, the gateway to the west of Jinzhou, can be captured so quickly. Precisely because of the rapid progress, the people from the military command hall have come up with demands. Before the end of the year
Breaking the city of Jinzhou will have a vital impact on the entire war situation. Once Jinzhou is broken, the Qing army on the front line of Liaoyang will no longer dare to go all out to fight Liu Yuanbin and others. After realizing this strategic intention, there will be no fear of defeat in this battle.
, the people in the Military Command Hall naturally want to take this reassurance as soon as possible.
"It's better not to put pressure on the frontline commanders. We are thousands of miles away and don't have a deep understanding of the military situation. The current judgment is only on paper. Once the war starts, how to use the troops depends on the wishes of the frontline commanders. Give
Ma Youliang went to convey the order and asked him to fight steadily, and everything should be based on the actual situation on the battlefield and should not be affected by other factors." The most important thing to avoid in combat is impatience. Zhu Youjian is not afraid of the slow progress of the war. What he is afraid of is that due to being too hasty, the Qing army will suffer.
Create a fighter jet.
Up to now, most of the Qing army's combat power has been preserved. They are fully capable of fighting back. If the Ming army makes a mistake, the battle situation will take a turn for the worse. At any time, the mistake of underestimating the enemy cannot be made. What we are fighting now is serious.
After experiencing national wars, it is right to be cautious. Although Zhu Youjian has not personally led troops, he has seen the history of wars. Whether it is in later generations or in history, haste makes waste, and basic military common sense has been learned. The entire military history has been
It seems that few of the highly boasted blitzkrieg and large-scale interlude tactics are successful in the end. Unless they are facing an opponent with a very obvious strength gap and a small strategic depth.
Although there is a generational difference between the Manchu and Qing Dynasties in terms of equipment and the current Ming army, their fighting will, military organization, and mobilization capabilities are still at a high level. Such an opponent is not a soft persimmon. From a strategic perspective, given the current traffic situation
, the strategic depth of Liaodong is definitely not small, and this does not include the area west of Shenyang. If the area west of Shenyang is included, the strategic depth is even greater.
"Your Majesty, our previous war plans were all centered around the recovery of Liaodong and Shenyang City. If the war goes smoothly and the army recovers Shenyang City, but the main force of the Manchu Qing Dynasty retreats further east, what should we do?" Huang Degong saw the emperor's mentality.
It was relatively stable, so the topic turned to Shen Yangguang's strategic plan after his recovery. It was time for the Military Command Hall to consider this matter.
"Let's start the battle point as far as the line between Fushun and Tieling! The army will advance to the west of Fushun and Tieling and stop temporarily."
"Aren't you going to cut the grass and get rid of the root? Will this leave any consequences?"
"Eradicating the roots? I do have this idea, but does the current court have the ability? We have to take into consideration the national strength!"
"Your Majesty, if the battle of Liaoyang were to wipe out many of the main forces of the rebels, they would not have too many people retreating to the ground by then."
"Unless most of the main force of the Jianlu forces are annihilated! Otherwise, this battle will suffice to regain Shenyang, and we must not rush into it greedily. Fushun and the east of Tieling are all mountains and wilderness. The battle is too difficult, and it is not complete yet.
When eradicating a full-blown problem, we should take steps to eliminate it."
Seeing Zhu Youjian's determination, Huang Degong had no choice but to give up and say no more. After staying in the military command hall for a long time, he couldn't help but have the thinking of an important minister in the court, and began to seek perfection. This was to completely quell the Manchu crisis.
How much temptation and honor is it? If possible, Huang Degong would naturally want to claim full credit.
"Your Majesty, what should we do with the Jianlu peace envoys detained in Shanhaiguan? Should we bring them all to the capital?" Zhou Yanru, who had been silent for a long time, saw that there was nothing to talk about in the military, so he quickly spoke to ask about political matters.
"Just restrict their freedom! After Shen Yangyang recovers, what use will they have? Besides, they are not prisoners on the battlefield. Treat them with courtesy and don't embarrass them too much."
