Chapter 12 Military War Letter

Xiong Wencan also nodded and said, "General Yu, this kind of thing really can't be nonsense! Thinking that the thief has more than 10,000 people, and he is familiar with the local terrain and has the advantage of the right time and place. How can you be his opponent with 2,000 people? Well, if you don't have enough troops at hand, how about mobilising another 3,000 generals for you to fight?

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help curling their mouths and thought to themselves that this Futai man was really good for Yu, and he actually took the initiative to send him more troops. If this guy can't win this time, let's see how we deal with this boy!

Yu Xiaotian bowed to Xiong Wencan and said, "Thank you for your love! Now the general also knows that Fujian's strength is insufficient. Although 2,000 people are a little less, the last general thinks that the soldiers are expensive but not much. These two thousand generals are brought out by the last generals. They dare not say that they are like arm fingers, but at least it is convenient to mobilize and act according to their orders. If another 3,000 soldiers and horses are transferred to the last general, I'm afraid it will end. The ability to move them is useless!

It's better not to use them. In the opinion of the last general, it's enough to deal with Blackbeard!"

Xiong Wencan couldn't help but be a little annoyed. He said that you are too arrogant. This is not a joke. If you two thousand people pass by and can't take the black beard, won't you be ashamed? I'm afraid that even the old man will follow you. When he was about to talk, Xie Longyi's eyes next to him A flash, he shouted coldly to Filial Piety:

"General Yu, there is no joke. Are you sure it's enough to take only 2,000 soldiers to your headquarters?"

"Thank you for reminding me that the last general is really not joking, and it's hard to catch up! At the end, it is confirmed that he will only bring 2,000 soldiers from the headquarters, and in addition, it is enough to add 1,000 local regiments in Quanzhou as auxiliary soldiers! The last general can set up a military order today. If he can't get back the head of the black beard within three months, he is willing to engage in military law!"

Yu Xiaotian doesn't like Xie Longyi's attitude very much. He also knows this incident. Everyone is waiting to see his jokes. If he is unfavorable this time, then waiting for him must be a mockery. Even Xiong Wencan may not be able to speak for him. In the future, he will definitely become a street mouse in Fujian. , become the laughing stock of everyone, and you will be a man with your tail in the future.

But isn't this an opportunity? If he does well enough, there is no doubt that his reputation in Fujian will be greatly improved in the future. If Xiong Wencan will give him benefits in the future, others will naturally have nothing to say.

As for the group of mountain thieves, Yu Xiaotian really didn't pay attention to it. Although this guy gathered more than 10,000 people, he knew very well that only a few hundred people could really fight and kill them. Most of the rest were some mountain people or ordinary people, even decent. There are no weapons. For such a mountain thief, he took out 2,000 elite land masters to deal with them. In fact, he was already quite high on them.

So since there is no way out and this matter must be done, he decided to do a better job and make a surprise, so he made a statement that he only took 2,000 soldiers to calm the chaos.

"Okay! Since General Yu has such courage, I will wait for General Yu's good sound! Three months is equivalent to good news for the general!" Xie Longyi was also aroused a little bit of fire. Although he didn't hate Yu Xiaotian very much, and this time it was not aimed at Yu Xiaotian. The reason why he asked so just now was that he still wanted to give Yu Xiaotian a step down. If Yu Xiaotian said that his troops were not enough, he was still willing to allocate some troops to Yu Xiaotian and cooperate with Yu Xiaotian's action. But I didn't expect Yu Xiaotian to be so confident, so he had nothing to say.

When Xiong Wencan saw that Yu Xiaotian said so much, he couldn't help but worry about Yu Xiaotian. His mouth was a little bitter. He said to himself, "Where are you going to sing Yu Xiaotian?" This is not a joke. This is a pre-military discussion. You can't say God's words. You have said so much. In case you can't calm the Blackbeard within three months, how can these guys easily let you go?

But now that Yu Xiaotian has said so much, and even dared to set up a military order, saying that he can't calm the black beard in three months and is willing to engage in military law, so he can't say anything more. He can only sigh in his heart and secretly decide that in case Yu Xiaotian can't do this matter in three months, then I'll find a way to protect him.

After the matter was settled, Xiong Wencan immediately allocated enough food and salaries to Yu Xiaotian for 3,000 people for three months. In addition, he also ordered Yu Xiaotian's men to allocate 2,000 taels of salary, hoping to help Yu Xiaotian boost his morale and let Yu Xiaotian eliminate a group of black beard mountain thieves within the agreed time.

After Yu Xiaotian took the order, he no longer worked in Fuzhou City, and immediately rushed back to Weitou Bay with his own guards.

After accepting the adaptation and changing into the clothes of the officers and soldiers, the sea wolves stationed in Quanzhou were far from being busy with the navy during this period. Now everyone knows that Yu Xiaotian controls the defense around Quanzhou, and few dares to make trouble on Quanzhou.

Therefore, these infantrymen only have to find a place to play with ants all day long. Now Li Dazui and Meng Fei have been given a thousand chief errands, specializing in leading these troops.

However, it was not a way to let them be idle here, so Yu Xiaotian made an excuse to transfer Meng Fei back to Tamsui and be responsible for the defense of Tamsui. This is a fake public and private service. At least Meng Fei is now the president of the Ming Dynasty. Although the Ming Dynasty has always had a tradition of unpaid, the generals above Qianzong The military's uniform can basically be distributed.

Now it's good. Yu Xiaotian's men are now holding the money opened by Daming, but many people are still doing things in Taiwan. If people know, it will definitely cause a lot of attacks, but Yu Xiaotian is really not afraid of this. Who makes him a coastal defense general? Find a reason and talk about where your subordinates are sent to do business. Who can do something about him?

This time, when he heard that Yu Xiaotian was going to lead 2,000 infantry to Yanping Mansion to suppress a group of black bearded mountain thieves, Li Dazui became energetic as soon as he heard it. During this period, he really gave their energetic guys to be idle enough.

Although occasionally they will go out to do something to suppress bandits, they are basically dealing with some small mountain thieves, fewer than dozens of people and hundreds more. Such a thing is really a piece of cake for them, not to mention that they also have special forces as scouts to fight them. Standing in front, many times before they even have time to do it, the special forces or the people of the scouts have finished the work.

So these 3,000 adapted infantry were basically only doing some training during this period in Quanzhou. They ate and slept well every day, that is, they were drilled fiercely by those officers on the school field.

This time, when they heard that they could go out to suppress bandits, the infantry shouted excitedly one by one. In a very short time, they were ready to set out.

Yu Xiaotian didn't do anything like pre-war mobilization with them. He just gathered people and shouted at them on the campus: "You all heard it clearly. This time I set up a military order in the governor's government and took back the black beard's head within three months. If you can't do this, you After these guys come back, everyone will wait for their buttocks to bloom! Don't talk nonsense, let's go!"

After saying that, he waved his whip and rushed out of the barracks with his own soldiers. Two thousand infantry immediately roared like wolves, rumbled in a neat queue and poured out of the barracks.

As for the thousand township braves, they are actually the militia recently formed by Yu Xiaotianxin in Quanzhou Prefecture. After arriving in Quanzhou, he ordered the regiments of various townships to be organized, uniformly deployment, and unified training, although these township braves are all householders or villagers of some local villages and gentry.

In the past, these regiments only listened to the gentry of their townships and were in charge of their own local affairs, mainly responsible for guarding their homes. To some extent, they were private soldiers of the squires of each township. When they were attacked by bandits, they would copy the guys to guard Zhuangbao township.

However, after Yu Xiaotian came, he forced each township to form a county regiment according to the designated personnel and take the county as a unit. Each county trained 300 to 500 township braves as a county-level mobile force. Once a township village is attacked by bandits, it is not a large group of bandits, and these county regiments will rush to the scene of the accident to rescue. .

In this way, each township and village got rid of the situation of fighting separately and had a mobile force with high combat effectiveness, but the premise was that these people would be under the jurisdiction of Xiaotian, and Yu Xiaotian was not responsible for paying them. The salaries of these brave townships of the county regiment were distributed to the squires of the townships and villages, and they Undertake.

In addition, when needed, Yu Xiaotian can mobilize the villagers of these county regiments as his auxiliary soldiers. These people go out to fight with him and are not responsible for fighting, but are mainly responsible for logistics and transportation.

You should know that Fujian is mountainous, with few horses, and the logistical requirements of the sea wolf's troops are much higher than other troops. If they go to war, they can't meet their needs without enough logistical support. The armor they carry alone is quite heavy.

Under normal circumstances, during the march, the sea wolf infantry did not wear armor with them, but only carried weapons and some personal belongings. The armor was carried by the auxiliary soldiers to transport them with the army.

Therefore, Yu Xiaotian has to rely on auxiliary soldiers to provide logistical support for his subordinates.

Because Fujian is mostly mountainous and hilly, even if there are horses, it is difficult for vehicles to move in this terrain, let alone load a large amount of materials. It is estimated that the horses will be exhausted after a few steep slopes.

After thinking about it for a while, Yu Xiaotian finally decided to rely entirely on human vehicles to ensure the logistics transportation supply of the army.
