Chapter 375 Yiwu

The whistling horse conveyed to the frontier that Qi Jiguang had led his army into Taining Guard. In the war report, this military operation was no different from the "burning nest" operation that had been throughout the northern border.

The Ming army entered the tribe with the main force of Mongolia leaving, and the tribe lacking war soldiers could not resist. The only difference is that this time the Ming army was more efficient in combat. After the war, the military discipline was extremely strict, and not every place had a battle.

A defeat can lead to the defeat of the next battle; a victory can also lead to the victory of the battle and ultimately achieve full results.

After the first three small troops who were controlled by Suozhe were destroyed by raising their bows to the Ming army, the fleeing troops quickly spread panic throughout the Taining Guards. The news of the Ming army's attack on Taining was carried by the galloping horses to all directions.

Then the first tribe to surrender to the Ming army appeared in Taining Guard. Although it was only a small town of more than a hundred people, it was enough to watch Liang Menglong, the military affairs of Ji Liao and Baoding, the Governor of the War Report.

Liang Menglong was from Zhending, Northern Zhili. He was born in the Hanlin Academy and was under the rank of a Jinshi. He served as a Shuji Scholar of the Hanlin Academy. He served as a military clerk in the military department, a military chief in Shaanxi, a military chief in the official department, Shuntian Prefecture Chief, deputy envoy of Henan Rivers, right governor in Henan, right assistant chief in the right censor in Shandong, and deputy chief censor in Henan.

By the Wanli period, he was under Zhang Juzhengmen, served as the Right Minister of the Ministry of Revenue and the Left Minister of the Ministry of War. He served as the Governor of the Baoding of Ji Liao.

When he was a censor, he impeached the Minister of Personnel and ruled Henan without closing his doors at night. He served as a member of Liaodong and led 3,000 troops to lead Qi Jiguang. Li Chengliang defeated the local barbarians in a stone and was promoted very quickly, and every term made contributions.

You can control the army when you get on a horse, and you can control the people when you get off a horse. You can also spray people when you pick up your pen.

At this moment, Liang Menglong was personally leading two generals to lead three thousand troops to Kuancheng outside Xifengkou. He immediately handed the battle report to his personal soldiers, saying: "Let the rider send back to Jizhou Town, send the telegram to the court... wait, there are many letters to send, and I will send them together after I finish writing them."

As he said that, he ordered someone to take the pen and ink, wrote three letters, and handed them to his personal soldiers in turn, saying: "The first two letters were sent to Jizhen, the last letter was returned to General Qi, and then asked the rider to send a sentence to Liang: I am in the back, and everything is safe."

After saying this, Liang Menglong looked at the general who followed the teleportation war rider, Wu Weizhong, the general of Shanhaiguan.

Liang Menglong knew what Qi Jiguang sent him to do, and smiled and said, "Can Qi even trust Liang? Let's take General Wu Shen to order the guns, cannons and armors transported from the school."

"The governor is very serious and his duties are in charge of military law."

Liang Menglong smiled and didn't say much. He knew Qi Jiguang's military law very well. When he was transferred to Ji Liao, he was intercepted by the Zhejiang Army because he rode a horse outside the camp at night. Even though he was clearly the governor, he was still taken away and imprisoned. He was imprisoned all night in the wooden prison. He was also imprisoned with him. Two generals from the Jing camp and one thousand households in the Beiyang Military Palace were also detained.

Qi Jiguang from the training camp recognized him and said nothing. He didn't release him until the next morning and went to the government office to pay a speech.

Their military laws were compiled into books and no one could disobey them.

But except for Li Rusong who was imprisoned, no one has ever blamed such military law.

In fact, the Ministry of War has already sorted out Qi Jiguang's military books and started to promote them nationwide.

Liang Menglong just took Wu Weizhong to the lieutenant schoolyard. On the way, he saw that Wu Weizhong's face was not very good, which made him worried and asked: "When the front line wins the battle, why is the general's face turned pale, but he has suffered a lot of losses?"

Wu Weizhong shook his head, sued Liang Menglong for his crime, and then he revealed the whole story: "The army ran 80 miles to sweep four troops. The enemy was not the elite army of the Northern Barbarians, so how could there be any damage? The entire army was only killed by a hundred generals, and was attacked and assassinated by the little Tartars after the war."

"Then, why is that?"

Liang Menglong heard that the situation was not bad, and he was much more relaxed. He waved forward with a wide robe and big sleeves and smiled: "I'm not worried about this batch of weapons. Liang has carefully checked every bird gun. The gun was made of Beiyang, the medicine was made of Beiyang, and the armor and equipment were all transferred from Xuanfu, and they were all meticulous."

"It's not so, it's just a private matter." Wu Weizhong shook his head, his sad expression on his face slightly diminished, and suddenly turned to Liang Menglong and said, "The Governor thought, when will the imperial court stop recruiting troops in Yiwu?"

A simple question actually led Liang Menglong, who had impeached the Minister of Personnel, to be speechless for a moment.

In the Ming Dynasty, this was an era of the Zhejiang Army. The Zhejiang Army became synonymous with elite soldiers and strong soldiers. Their tactics were novel and not as new as the Beiyang Army, which wanted to leave swords and guns, only bird guns. The strict military discipline and terrifying achievements shocked everyone.

If the Guangdong soldiers followed Chen Mu to fight all over the world, then the Zhejiang army was led by Qi Jiguang and ran around the motherland, without a single enemy.

Zhejiang is not a place where powerful generals are produced, not to mention the so-called Zhejiang soldiers... mostly come from Yiwu.

There are tens of thousands of Zhejiang troops stationed in Jizhen, including 16,000 Yiwu soldiers. It is Yiwu, a radius of hundreds of miles, so small that only Jinhua Prefecture can't find this county in the map of Emperor Wanli.

Now, Wu Weizhong mentioned Yiwu.

This made Liang Menglong ask: "Yiwu, how many household registrations do you have?"

Wu Weizhong, the general with tall cheekbones, answered without thinking: "Ten thousand households, 15,610 households."

He didn't need to think about it at all. He took the Yiwu recruitment list of Qi's army on the ground. It was a Yiwu household registration directory, and the official household registration was also detailed. There were many forty-seven clans in the 82 clans. The hidden fugitives could escape the government's registration, but they could not escape the recruiting officers from the village.

"We, the Yiwu people, have the ability to throw stones and have a lot of money to slap in the distance, and most of us apply for support."

This is actually something Wu Weizhong said very carefully. As a military general, he could not slander his superiors. Everyone knew that Qi Jiguang had made the name of Yiwu Army a fierce name... But as the son of Yiwu, he knew that Qi Jiguang changed the habit of Yiwu people's relocation, and made Yiwu, which was already crowded and small, even more devastated.

On the battlefield, the father took his son and the brother led his younger brother to fight with the army, but what about it in their hometown?

In his hometown, the arable land was all women and the elderly and weak, the fields were deserted but no one could take care of them, and the officials were helpless... And the scale of this just-started battle was so huge that even generals like Wu Weizhong didn't know how long they would fight.

I don’t know what step the emperor will take in the spirit of encompassing the world.

The bird gun on the school ground was fired by Wu Weizhong, and the lead ball was hit on the edge of a hundred steps wide target. He gritted his teeth and put down the gun. He suddenly bowed to Liang Menglong, who was wearing an official robe next to him, and clasped his fists and said, "I have a reluctant request from my humble official, and I hope the governor will agree."

Liang Menglong was shocked.

"Why did the general suddenly do this? Please get up quickly, but Liang can do his best, but please tell me."

Wu Weizhong did not stand up, but just lowered his head and said, "Please ask the Governor to find someone to transport the dead hundred generals' bodies back to their hometowns. The army will continue to fight north today. It is really difficult to take care of... That is the son and nephew of the Hu-Lei, but I only want to be buried in peace."-
