In Hong Chengchou's Chinese army camp, after the discussion began, many people still felt a little dizzy, as if they were dreaming... So the emperor was always by our side in the battle for aid? Watching this battle silently? This kind of morale boost...
So after Emperor Chongzhen sat high in the lobby of the Governor of Hong Chengchou (after all, the conditions are so poor that it is impossible to build a palace for him), the ministers will be headed by Hong Chengchou, and the generals will be headed by Yang Shanlu, Yang Guozhu, etc., so that everyone bows down together. salute.
As for the Emperor Chongzhen, he was also very interested. If he was in the Palace of Jinluan before, some military commanders of lower rank would not be able to see Chongzhen's face when he stood behind, but what about now? For these civil servants and military generals (above the guerrilla generals), Chongzhen asked them to come forward and bow down one by one, and each of them gave a few words of encouragement...
And this is the emperor Lunyin! This made these generals who heard Chongzhen speak in person, feeling great honor... (Even such things will be recorded in future historians).
As for Chongzhen, he also has reason to be so happy... As an emperor, it is his first time on the battlefield! And it's still such a battle of more than 100,000 people! And more importantly, this battle was won!
Although it was quite thrilling at first, in the end, they won! And after his emperor came out, the morale was like a rainbow, and he won in one fell swoop! And finally slayed the tens of thousands of Dongnu powerhouses, such a joy... It's really not there in many years!
Of course, the war is not over yet, so after meeting with the emperor, Hong Chengchou will begin to preside over the daily routine military meetings... Of course, if a war breaks out like this today, it is necessary to discuss merits and crimes on the spot... After all, there are no rules. Isn't it round
Regarding Emperor Chongzhen, he didn't understand military affairs, but it didn't prevent him from sitting there happily and observing—this was also a rare learning opportunity for him.
(Because everyone knows that Chongzhen was just a spare part of the emperor at the beginning. The level of the prince was his carpenter brother. So Chongzhen did not receive a complete emperor education when he was young, which made him unable to enter politics in the future. , So it is also a poor baby).
The first thing Hong Chengchou did was to summarize... and in general, there were shining points and flaws in this battle.
The shining point is naturally a powerful one in the Qing army that has been ruthlessly eliminated! Even after such a battle, it was very difficult for the Qing army to find a complete unit! They are already in a state of demolishing the east wall to make up the west wall!
But as for the flaws, there is no denying it—that is, the casualties of the Ming army are equally astonishing! Of course, although the Xuanjia Army was the main force participating in the war, there were only more than 800 casualties (corresponding to the annihilation of at least 5,000 tartars), so this was a very good fight.
But what about other Ming troops? That won't work, aside from Shenjiying (the Shenjiying basically didn't fight this time, mainly to protect the emperor), just like the horse department and the Tangtong department, they are all staggering casualties!
Among them, the most casualties were the Horse Department. The seven thousand mountain and sea soldiers under his command (Ma Ke was the general army of Shanhaiguan). Although they had only one hour to fight with the Qing army, they were killed in such a short period of time. Three thousand people! It also included more than a dozen generals from a hundred households or more than a thousand who were killed in battle.
(Of course, in other words, the mountain and sea soldiers who fled are also counted as the list of the dead. Of course, if you don't know whether the battle is going forward or not, and Marco has formed a supervising team in advance, there is nowhere for those mountain and sea soldiers to escape. Won't kill so many people)
In addition, Tang Tong’s Miyun soldiers (Tang Tong was Miyun’s chief soldier) also suffered terrible losses, almost 3,000 dead in battle! So Gou Danzi really did not read them wrong—the two are brothers and sisters!
To advertise, the book-chasing app I am using recently, caches books, and reads offline!
Therefore, after counting the number of casualties, Hong Chengchou looked very ugly. If it weren't for the Xuanjia army to arrive in time and turn the tide, this time he would be defeated by the dog Danzi! Of course, even if this is the case, the battle damage between the enemy and ours in this battle is almost the same (including the wounded number of the Shanhai Soldier and the Miyun Soldier, it is almost 10,000)
So how can Hong Chengchou not be angry? We must know that the exchange ratio between the Ming army and the Qing army in this battle of aid has been maintained at one to two to three! (That is, one Ming army killed in battle can be exchanged for two to three Qing army) Even like the battle of the Xuanjia army today, the exchange ratio is astonishing one to six!
(Even this doesn't even count the number of those injured and escaped from Tarzi. In fact, those who are almost can be counted as dead! And this is a major advantage of firearms warfare, as long as it is hit, it is basically finished!
Because with the backward medical methods of this era (not to mention the Qing army), it was nine deaths and three lives to get a cold weapon like a bow and arrow, but it was hit by a lead shell artillery and other * wounds, relying on jumping the gods and the like. , Or just get some herbal medicine to fight hard, it is nine deaths and no life! )
But now? Actually the battle loss ratio between the two sides is one to one? This made Hong Chengchou feel ashamed in front of Chongzhen (he has no direction in command) and it also exposed many problems of the Shanhai Soldiers and Miyun Soldiers... The imperial control is not strict, the army has no way to manage, and so on.
Therefore, in this way, Hong Chengchou must of course condemn these two men (as for today's other fronts, the performance of the Ming troops is still normal, so this time no judgment is made).
So in the majestic governor’s hall, I heard Hong Chengchou’s conclusion: "... The first battle of this battle is the emperor Tianweihao** (of course, the emperor’s credit is not Hong Chengchou’s ability to comment, this must be determined by the historian), The second is that the uncle Zhen Guo arrived in time and defeated the stubborn enemy! Take the lead! The third Beijing battalion soldiers who guarded the emperor arrived in time, and there were no mistakes in the battle, which can be a second effort."
"As for Ma Ke, the general soldier in Shanhaiguan, and Tang Tong, the general soldier in Miyun, they have only the courage of a man in the battle, but no generals! This caused a large number of casualties to the Ming army! Lost the prestige of our division! This should be a crime..."
(Furthermore, Hong Chengchou was not ashamed to point out that there are so many deserters. Of course, this is not enough to give them face, but this is no longer the original time and space. The original time and space is not as strong as the Xuan Jia army, and the elite soldiers are not enough. Come here, so this kind of soft-blooded troops have to pinch their noses and win over, but now...
So after Hong Chengchou said this, everyone had different expressions, and Yang Shanlu naturally didn't care. After all, he didn't know how much credit he had done since this expedition-it doesn't matter more or less! What he cares about is that as long as he can eliminate the Tartar!
Fu Yingchong, the deputy general of Shenjiying (the leader of Shenjiying this time), is quite happy. To be honest, they came out this time and haven't fought much. The main thing is to do some security work (and Shenjiying's The combat power is not very good either, and they are generally referred to as young master soldiers), and can you get a share of military merit in this way? So of course it can be satisfied.
As for the only dissatisfaction on the scene, it was Ma Ke and Tang Tong, and they were frustrated... They both lost their troops and fought desperately, but in the end not only did they fail to get their military merits, they also failed. But who can blame this? This battle was really not fought well, and the soldiers under them were not up to date (of course, they would not find the reason from themselves), so the two of them could only listen to the training with their heads drooping.
After this assessment, the meritorious ones don’t need to say. After the end of the battle for aid, they will return to the capital together. However, like Marco Tangtong, who are guilty, Hong Chengchou gave him this because he hated them for dragging his legs. The second'perfect' command was smeared, so he had to condemn him on the spot... to show his supervising power!
So Ma Ke planned to demote him to the second level on the above-mentioned charges, but he was still serving as the General Soldier of Shanhaiguan, and he was guilty of meritorious deeds.
As for the chief soldier of Miyun, Tang Tong, he has to be a little lucky, because he had a great power to kill the slave chief Duduo, so according to the principle, he was also lowered to the second level, but this can offset the merits and demerits. Of course, the final argument The crime of Gonglun and the deduction will be handed over to the Ministry of Defense for the final determination, but anyway, this is already a shameful record of his life.
After Hong Chengchou finished speaking, even though Ma Ke and Tang Tong were very frustrated in their hearts, they still had to bow to him.
But at this time, Emperor Chongzhen, who had never spoken anything, suddenly said: "Hong Aiqing, although the two generals of Ma Tang are a little underwhelmed, they have also contributed a lot in this battle, and they have avoided their relegation. Well, it's good to be guilty."
After all, Emperor Chongzhen also blamed them for being poor. There were no major injuries on his body, and several minor injuries. Obviously, he had done his best in this battle, so he couldn't bear to blame too much.
After hearing this, Hong Chengchou nodded and said yes, and then looked at Ma Ke Tang Tong and hummed softly: "Fortunately for you, since the emperor is pleading for you, then you can avoid this, and hope you Read it in Huang Enhao**, I will try to kill the minions in the future!"
"Thank you, the emperor! Thank you Hong Du!" After listening to this, Ma Ke Tang Tong thanked them and felt very grateful. After all, today is different. In the past, generals like them, as long as they have the military power in their hands, Even if they made some mistakes, or even fled before battle, the court often just raised the board high, dropped it gently, and after a few painless reprimands, nothing happened.
But now it’s different. With a powerful army like the Xuanjia Army, it doesn’t matter if there is a miscellaneous soldier like them, so if you really get rid of the post of general soldier, that’s really true. Crap! But now? This is a very good result...
Therefore, Hong Chengchou said a lot about other aspects. After all, hundreds of thousands of troops are fighting abroad, and there are so many things involved... Then after this routine military meeting is over, the generals will prepare. Disperse.
Unexpectedly, Emperor Chongzhen was still very excited. He first waved to Yang Shanlu, and then proposed to go down to the barracks... to personally visit the soldiers who fought bravely.
Regarding his proposal, Yang Shanlu was immediately embarrassed, although he also agreed with Chongzhen's approach... The emperor could not float high in the clouds forever, and occasionally needed to go down to appreciate the sentiments of the people and the military.
But the problem is, if you go down, this security issue will become more tricky... The barracks are also very complicated, and there are many people. If this is someone's brain, the crime of disrespect is still good. If this is a thorn king If you kill the driver, that would be really troublesome...
But in the end, Yang Shanlu still couldn't survive Chongzhen's plea. After all, Chongzhen knew that this kind of opportunity was rare. It wasn't this time that the imperial conquest, how could there be such an opportunity? And he was indeed moved by the soldiers who fought bravely, and wanted to visit him in person.
In this case, Yang Shanlu had no choice but to accompany the king to drive.
Of course, since this is the case, don't inspect any miscellaneous troops. In case there is any mistake, no one can afford to go directly to inspect his Xuanjia army. This is the safest way.
In addition, Yang Shanlu chose the 10,000 people who participated in the war just now, that is, the one that fought the Zhenglan Banner Qing army with his head.
Regarding this arrangement, Emperor Chongzhen had no opinion. On the contrary, he was very much looking forward to seeing the heroic Xuanjia army, which was famous and even comparable to the Qi's army in the past. (End of this chapter)
