At this time, Huang Mingyuan asked Li Zixiao again: "Xuanzhen, how is the reserve of cotton coats and sweaters?"
Li Zixiao said: "Fengzhou has now produced 9,000 pieces of military uniforms. When this year's cotton comes out, it is expected that 25,000 pieces will be made. 35,000 pieces of thickened wool coats have been produced, which fully meets the needs of the people in Fengzhou. The needs of the army, auxiliaries, and civilians.¡±
Huang Mingyuan nodded.
"Although it is still late spring, winter has entered early in the north. It is estimated that the temperature in Mobei will drop significantly in October. Although the battle plan is to defeat the Turks before winter, the plan cannot keep up with the changes. We must Prepare enough winter clothes to prevent possible accidents. If the manpower is insufficient, recruit people from various places. This is Fengzhou's top priority at the moment and cannot be delayed.
Xuanzhen, you still need to reserve 50,000 pieces of cold-proof clothing for use by other ministries. Other ministries may not be so well prepared. "
"No!"
"This is not Huang Mingyuan's hypocrisy. Fighting in the northern winter will result in more casualties due to frostbite than combat losses. During World War II, the German army claimed to be invincible, but didn't it collapse in the face of the severe cold in Moscow? Who knows if it will last until winter.
Huang Mingyuan added a lot more, and several people continued to discuss until late at night before leaving.
The last ones to leave were Li Zixiao, Chen Yuan, and Zheng Yanqing. Compared with the others, these were Huang Mingyuan's true confidants.
Huang Mingyuan said to everyone: "After this battle, no matter whether I win or lose, I will definitely not stay in Fengzhou. You must be mentally prepared. After I leave, Fengzhou cannot be chaotic. Yan Qing is no better than me. His background, qualifications, Age has a great influence. Although I have my full support, it is still very difficult to succeed to the position of general manager. As for the position of governor, it is absolutely impossible. Xuanzhen also has this problem, so I recommended Rongbi to the saint. Rongbi Although this person is upright and stubborn, he is a person who loves the people and can do things. At least he can continue Fengzhou's old policies and ensure the stability of Fengzhou's political scene after I leave."
Several people also understood what Huang Mingyuan meant. In the final analysis, their group was greatly affected by their origin, age, and seniority. Neither Zheng Yanqing nor Li Zixiao could serve as the governor of a state. Instead of waiting until Huang Mingyuan resigned, the emperor randomly arranged someone who did not know the details. People might as well recommend Rongbi, whom they are familiar with, as their successor. At least Huang Mingyuan is trustworthy in Rongbi's character.
"Xuanzhen, Yan Qing, you must maintain enough respect for Rongbi without violating Fengzhou's fundamental interests, but you must not let Rongbi harm Fengzhou's development. You must have a certain limit on this. After this battle, there will be a big change in Fengzhou, and a large number of high-level personnel will be transferred from Fengzhou. I will try my best to ensure that you two stay. By then, the future of Fengzhou will depend on whether we can have a complete family. It¡¯s all up to you.¡±
After saying that, Huang Mingyuan bowed.
Li Zixiao and Zheng Yanqing hurriedly stepped forward to return the gift. They were the first civil and military figures in the Fengzhou clan under Huang Mingyuan, and they had a duty to ensure the interests of the entire group.
However, the two of them also knew that one day Huang Mingyuan would leave. After all, the entire Datong system was tied to Huang Mingyuan. Only when Huang Mingyuan rose step by step could the entire Datong system go further.
Huang Mingyuan can completely trust Zheng Yanqing and Li Zixiao. However, Huang Mingyuan is not worried that Fengzhou will let go. After all, the entire Fengzhou was built by himself from scratch. Here, he is their god.
In the next few days, Huang Mingyuan ignored the inner courtyard at all and devoted himself wholeheartedly to preparing for the war. Although he was spinning around, Huang Mingyuan was full of excitement and his energy seemed to be much stronger.
In early May, Gao Zhen sent back the latest Turkic information from Mobei.
Since Bujia Khan regained the throne of Turkic Khan, he has regarded the Tiele people in the northeast as a serious threat. In order to cope with the gradual invasion of Turkic pastures by Tiele's tribes, he ordered General Ashina Simo to lead his troops to plunder the nine surnames of Tiele, and obtained a large number of sheep and horses, and his power gradually became stronger.
At the beginning of the year, Qu Gureng, the leader of the Bayagu tribe, once again met with the Tiele tribes in the upper reaches of the Onan River with the intention of conquering the Turks. During this alliance, Qu Gureng coerced the various tribes and made everyone respect him as the leader of the alliance. He was also honored as Gudulu Pijiaque Khan and the leader of the alliance. He also organized the coalition forces to march towards the Saling River. The Turks launched an attack.
Bujia Khan personally led the main force to counterattack the Tiele coalition forward troops that broke into the south of the Saling River. They were severely defeated and captured more than 2,000 people. The leader of the Pugu tribe, Puguyi, fled north on a light horse.
Afterwards, Bujia Khan ordered the generals Shari and Ashina Simo to each lead a force, and the troops were divided into three groups to advance together to attack the Tiele coalition. Although the Turks have been in civil war for several years, their foundation far exceeds that of the divided Tiele. The two sides were in a stalemate in the area south of the Saling River for more than a month. The Tiele coalition was defeated in the battle.?Retreat to the north.
Bujia Khan took advantage of the situation to pursue, and personally selected more than a thousand brave cavalry. With General Bayer as the vanguard, he pushed directly into the Saling River, and he led his troops to follow closely. The Turkic cavalry fought for more than a hundred miles, fighting and attacking with all their strength, and were invincible. The Tiele coalition forces were unable to escape and were surrounded by Turkic troops. General Bayan and others were shot. After falling off their horses, they joined the battle on foot. Most of the accompanying cavalry were killed or injured. Fortunately, Qu Guling rescued them in time and saved the entire army from being wiped out. However, Bujia Khan still broke through Quguleng's tent, killed thousands of Tiele soldiers, and obtained more than 200,000 livestock.
Since then, Qu Gureng knew that there was a huge gap in strength between the Turks and the Turks, and he no longer dared to talk about destroying the Turks. In order to accumulate strength, Qu Gureng ordered people to contact the Tongluo tribe and call for a truce. Tongluo Xie also thought that he would not be able to compete with the Bayagu tribe in a short time, so the two tribes negotiated peace.
Qu Gulen married his daughter Mou Yu Huozhen to Tong Luo Xie, and the two reconciled, and Tong Luo Xie also recognized Qu Gu Ling's status as khan.
In mid-April, the Tiele coalition once again fought with the main Turkic forces on the west bank of the Duluo River.
The battle between the two sides was fierce, with the Tiele coalition winning first and then losing. Finally, they withdrew to the east bank of the Duluo River and continued to confront the Turks. It's just that the decline of Tiele's tribes has become apparent, and failure is only a matter of time.
When Huang Ming saw these reports, he had to admire the fact that the Turks had ruled the grassland for fifty years and had a profound foundation.
"If Bujia Khan is given a few more years, he can calmly conquer the Tiele tribes, suppress the internal conflicts in the grassland, recuperate internally, increase his strength, and reconnect the entire grassland under the wings of the entire Turks.
Huang Mingyuan felt a sense of luck in his heart. Fortunately, the Turks were still weak, otherwise the outcome of the Northern Expedition would have been unpredictable.
Huang Mingyuan ordered Beidou to continue to monitor the movements of various departments in the grassland, and also ordered the high-seismic department to leave enough guides and intelligence personnel on the grassland. The entire main force bypassed the surveillance of the Turks and crossed the Saling River to the north to stand by.
At this time, in order to prepare for the war as soon as possible, Huang Mingyuan worked tirelessly. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
