The army left Luoyang, crossed the river from Mengjin, and arrived at Heyang. There were already a large number of ships waiting here.
In order to save time during this expedition, Huang Mingyuan prepared all troops to arrive at Zhuojun by water, so he collected various ships to transport soldiers.
??Above the Yellow River, the sky blocks out the sun, and the scene is unprecedented.
On April 28, Huang Mingyuan led his soldiers and some generals to Zhuojun in advance.
At this time, the soldiers from various places who had been transferred since February this year had already arrived. As for the main force of the Forbidden Army coming from the waterway, it would still take more than half a month. Huang Mingyuan planned to take advantage of this time to train the more than 100,000 government soldiers in advance.
"At least there are 150,000 soldiers on the list, coming from all over the world.
The government troops in Guanzhong, Hebei, Henan, and Huaibei, which were originally the main force of the Sui army, had already been exhausted by Yang Guang several times, and they were in short supply. In addition, these places were suffering from serious famines and countless bandits. It was necessary to mobilize officers and soldiers from various places to pacify the areas, and there was no way to send troops. In order to fill this vacancy, this time Yang Guang even recruited local soldiers from Jiannan, Jingxiang and even Lingnan to make up for the lack of troops.
Most of these government soldiers from various places are common people, slaves, and even bandits temporarily recruited or forcibly recruited by local governments to make up the numbers and serve as cannon fodder. These people have never experienced formal training. They are physically weak, have low morale, lack equipment, and are disorganized. The battle has not yet started, and this unit is already in ruins.
¡°And these people also knew that they were dead, so they had no intention of fighting and ran away countless times along the way.
Huang Mingyuan inspected the camp heads one by one and found that the situation was very serious.
To be honest, Huang Mingyuan has never experienced anything like this in all his years of military service. He has been on the border for a long time, and none of his troops are veterans who have fought fiercely with the Hulu for many years. As long as they are well prepared and commanded properly, there is no need to consider the combat effectiveness of the troops.
And today, with this group of naughty soldiers, does Huang Mingyuan dare to let them go to the battlefield?
"It's like asking Sun Wu and Bai Qi to command the troops that were rotten to the core in the late Ming and Qing Dynasties. They couldn't immediately save and win the war.
To fight a war, you must first have morale.
In order to boost the morale of the people, Huang Mingyuan ordered people to announce in the army that anyone who had made meritorious service would be rewarded with farmland in Liaodong. Although Liaodong is bitterly cold, if they have their own land, these poor people don't care where they are.
Huang Mingyuan also ordered that each department will be ranked based on training. Those whose performance is higher will not be limited to food, but will also be fed with meat and eggs. Yang Guang gave himself 1.5 million shi of food, but it was actually not enough to support this eastern expedition. But no matter how tight the situation is, the subordinate troops cannot see it. The commander-in-chief must be wealthy and powerful to make the soldiers feel more confident.
Huang Mingyuan also asked people to spread Huang Mingyuan's past achievements and achievements in the army, exaggerate and mythologize Huang Mingyuan. It is promoted that Huang Mingyuan is the descendant of Wu Qu Xingjun, as if just following Huang Mingyuan can win the battle.
There is no way. Although it is feudal superstition, ordinary people believe in this.
After Huang Mingyuan¡¯s tricks, this army finally became lifeless.
In order to pull out a strong army as soon as possible, Huang Mingyuan planned to eliminate the poor and retain the elite, and first select an army capable of fighting among these people. So Huang Mingyuan mobilized veterans and strong men from among the more than 100,000 soldiers of the government, and was the first to select 40,000 soldiers who could fight.
Huang Mingyuan divided the 40,000 troops into two groups, named Zuo Army and Right Army respectively.
With General Cai Zhiyun of Zuowuwei as the general manager of the Zuo Army, two generals of Youzhou, Hu Benlang General Luo Yi and Hu Yalang General Xu Huzi, were assigned as generals to assist him.
Zhang Wenyuan, the former prefect of Changping County and the right Houwei general of the inspection school, was appointed as the right army commander, and Gao Yuanbei, the general of Hu Benlang of the left Wuwei, and Lu Huiyan, the general of Hu Yalang of Youzhou general manager, were selected as assistant generals.
And again mobilized 10,000 elite troops from Youzhou, under the command of Huben Lang General Jiao Fangjie, as Huang Mingyuan's central army.
As for the remaining troops, Huang Mingyuan plans to keep them in Zhuojun to continue training. Liu Yunfang, the governor of Wencheng County, and Li Jing, the marching commander, were also assigned to be responsible for the training.
The generals of the Fengzhou line had been dormant in Hedong and Guanbei for more than ten years, and gradually seized the actual control of the local army from the Guanlong family. This time he commanded more than 300,000 troops, and Huang Mingyuan really lacked senior generals. In order to fully control this army, Huang Mingyuan had to call back the Fengzhou generals sent from various places.
Although the layout on all four sides is very important, the conquest of Liaodong is more important.
¡° In this way, including 40,000 government soldiers, 10,000 Youzhou soldiers, and more than 60,000 forbidden troops, there are close to 120,000 troops, no more, no less, which is suitable for large-scale operations.
We have to admit that 100,000 people are most suitable for large group operations because they are easy to command and can fullyTake advantage of human resources.
On May 12, Huang Mingyuan led his army to Tianjin Port.
Tianjin Port is located in the Tianjin area in later generations and is the outlet of the Haihe River. Historically, Tianjin did not exist until the Ming Dynasty, but in order to facilitate shipping, Huang Mingyuan ordered people to build a dock here and also built a city and named it Tianjin City. As for the port, it was named Tianjin Port.
But the meaning is definitely not the place where the emperor crossed the river.
The later Tianjin Port was still more than ten miles away from here. In later generations, the Tanggu area was now covered by the sea. It was only after the Yellow River moved northward to seize the Haihe River's outlet in the Northern Song Dynasty and the sediment accumulated that a Tanggu Port emerged.
This place leads to Youzhou in the north, directly to Luoyang along the Yongji Canal in the south, and has an outlet to the sea in the east. It can be said to be a chosen place.
Starting from Tianjin Port, it can communicate with almost all water systems in North China such as Juma River, Sanggan River, Hutuo River, Yishui, and Gu River.
Huang Mingyuan uses this as a material transfer station and transportation base, which can be said to be the best choice. In order to strengthen the defense, Huang Mingyuan ordered Zhang Wenxun, the captain of Zhuojun, to station 8,000 troops here.
On May 14, Huang Mingyuan boarded the ship heading north and led a main force of 50,000 people along the coastline to Liaodong.
From Tianjin Port to the Liao River outlet, Huang Mingyuan has built a fairly mature maritime transportation channel. Shipping by sea is countless times more convenient than previous land transportation of thousands of miles.
For this transportation, Huang Mingyuan mobilized 20,000 naval troops under the command of Lai Huer, commanded by Zhou Fashang, specifically to escort the army. In order to facilitate the supply of the army during the journey, Huang Mingyuan ordered people to build wharves at Linyuguan, Linhai Town (also known as Wanghaidun, south of today's Linghai City, Liaoning Province), and Huludao.
In the past, most of the criminals transported from the Central Plains to Liaodong were delivered to Liaodong via this route.
Huang Mingyuan sat on the building boat, looking far into the distance, the vast sea was infinite, the sky, the earth and the sea stretched in the distance, and as far as the eye could see, it was all blue. And at this time, flying infinitely from this blue place, this sky, this land, this infinite scenery, Huang Mingyuan will once again ride the wind and waves, and reach the sea.
Heavy rain falls on the quiet swallows, white waves surge into the sky, and fishing boats are seen outside Qinhuangdao. If you can't see the vast ocean, who do you know where to go?
??Thousands of years have passed since Wei Wu whipped his whip, and there is a posthumous chapter in Jieshi in the east. The bleak autumn wind is here again, and the world has changed.
