The courtiers below also understood this, and most of them couldn't help but shake their heads slightly, not optimistic that Lu Xiangsheng would be able to accomplish more extraordinary feats.
Emperor Chongzhen smiled and said: "The biggest reason for Jianlu's failure in the past few times was that he did not understand the strength of our army.
Therefore, their food protection team was intercepted twice by Lu Zhongcheng.
Going to Liaodong Later, because they did not understand the strength of the Hussars Battalion, some arrogant soldiers went out to fight.
As a result, Lu Zhongcheng captured Anshan Station."
Having said this, he paused and saw all the courtiers below looking at him before continuing: "Therefore, this time, Jianlu still needs to underestimate the strength of our army."
After he finished speaking, the Wenhua Palace was quiet for a while.
Shen Yongmao broke the silence with a look of confusion and said: "Your Majesty said that you want the new army to rob food."
Based on what the emperor said before and after, he was the first to think of this possibility.
"Yes."
Emperor Chongzhen applauded, nodded and said, "This is my plan.
Lu Zhongcheng will show up openly, while the new army will ambush him.
I am not afraid that he will not be able to defeat the North Korean Jianlu, and will not be able to intercept the Jianlu's grain."
When everyone heard this, they were surprised at first, and then they all showed approval and nodded.
Wang Chengen also spoke at the right time: "Lu Zhongcheng said that this plan is very good.
As long as the new army is strong enough, it may be able to annihilate all the Korean rebels."
With Governor Denglai's approval, everyone's confidence could not help but increase.
In other words, the key to how successful the victory is depends on how strong the new army is.
But just when everyone was happy, Bi Ziyan, the Minister of Household Affairs, asked: "Your Majesty, the new army has more than 5,000 people, plus logistics, etc., how many fleets will be needed to transport the Denglai Navy?"
But there are not so many warships."
Upon hearing this, the Wenhua Palace fell into silence.
It's too early to be happy, people can't get through, everything is like a flower in the mirror, However, Emperor Chongzhen had already thought about it and immediately said: "The Fujian Navy is transporting food.
They have more ships than the Denglai Navy.
Moreover, over at Pi Island, they have obtained some Korean warships before, so they can do the same.
"Use.
I will also mobilize the ships from Guan Ning, so there will be many ships."
Having said this, he paused, looked at the courtiers below and added: "In addition, there is no need for the New Army to carry logistics.
All of them will go to North Korea to participate in the war.
Just let the troops suitable for ambush pass, and the rest of the New Army , then head overland to Ningyuan and wait there.”
"Your Majesty, your Majesty," Cao Huachun, the eunuch in charge of the ceremonial department, said in a shrill voice.
When Wen Tiren heard this, he glanced at him and remained silent.
With this statement, he agreed with the emperor.
He was truly worthy of being the internal minister of the Ming Dynasty.
Thinking of this, he immediately said: "Your Majesty's method solved the difficulty just now in one fell swoop.
I think it is wonderful."
When other ministers heard this, they all expressed their opinions and agreed with Emperor Chongzhen's opinion.
Only the Minister of Household Affairs frowned and asked with some confusion: "Your Majesty, why are the rest of the New Army going to Ningyuan?
Does Your Majesty still want the New Army to attack Gaizhou?"
"Why not?"
Emperor Chongzhen asked after hearing this, and then said: "I have said that we must not let the Jianlu troops divide their troops to attack Hetao."
After saying this, he analyzed it to his ministers: "If the Jianlu in North Korea can be annihilated, it will definitely shock the North Korean rebels, and they will definitely ask for help from the Jianlu.
And when the Jianlu just founded the country, firstly, they need prestige, and secondly, We will not give up on North Korea and will definitely send troops again, and in order to prevent the Ming Dynasty from being annihilated again, we will definitely send more troops.
This will weaken the strength of Liaodong. " "Thirdly, the New Army has shown its strength again in Gaizhou.
The Jianlu will definitely not dare to underestimate them.
They will definitely send heavy troops to surround them.

If they can be annihilated, it will be in their best interest.
According to my estimation, if they want to do these things, they will definitely have to fight again.
We will ask the Mongolian tribes to also send troops.
In this case, there will be no troops to go to Hetao.
If it is just a small number of troops, I believe that Governor Hong can repel the invading enemy."
After saying these words, Emperor Chongzhen paused, glanced at the ministers below, and saw that some of them were deep in thought and some were nodding, and then said: "The last point is that it is the same old tune again.
Jianlu sent out his army, They also need to consume food.
Do they have so much food?
Even if they do, the consumption is so huge.
How will Jianlu live in the coming year?"
There was no distinction between the Ming Dynasty and the Jianlu during the Little Ice Age.
The Ming Dynasty suffered disasters, and Liaodong also suffered disasters, and the weather was even colder.
After consuming their food, they pinned the Jianlu, and they could no longer come to the Ming Dynasty to plunder.
Now that there are no enemies to support the Shanxi merchants, just using these economic methods can make the Jianlu's national power drop greatly.
After hearing the emperor's detailed analysis, who else can object?
Wen Tiren finally understood what the emperor had said before.
It seemed that the Fujian navy would not be able to return for the time being.
The control of the sea there was also temporarily given up, which would affect the establishment of a sea ban to some extent.
Bi Ziyan secretly complained, and began to calculate in his mind, apart from the food that North Korea might seize, how to make preparations to meet the emperor's requirements.
While he was thinking about this, he heard Emperor Chongzhen calling his name and saying: "Bi Qing, the new army's food and grass supplies must be prepared first, and winter clothes must be distributed before departure.
To be serious, this is If the battle related to the national destiny of the Ming Dynasty is fought, the Hetao will be more stable, and there will be many benefits; the Jianlu will be dragged into the bottomless abyss by the Ming Dynasty, which will be of great help to the restoration of Liaodong in the future.
Bi Qing understands."
Everything about the New Army was personally handled by the emperor, and supervisors at all levels in the New Army could directly report secretly to the emperor.
Therefore, the supplies for the new army are distributed directly in the capital, and there is no such thing as a loss, and shortfalls are not allowed.
As a result, this new army material was so real that Bi Ziyan didn't even bother to agree immediately, thinking about everything.
Emperor Chongzhen understood that fighting a war is actually about logistics.
This is true for combat with hot weapons, and the same is true for combat with cold weapons.
Bi Ziyan was the steward of the Ming Dynasty.
He did not reply immediately, but was thinking about it.
This was due to his duty.
Therefore, he did not intend to rush him and just waited for his answer after calculation.
The focus was on Shangshu Hubu, and everyone else in the Wenhua Hall was also watching him, waiting for his answer.
After a while, Bi Ziyan raised his head, clasped his fingers and pointed to Emperor Chongzhen and said: "As for the grain, the grain from the Jiangnan area under the supervision of Mr.
Zhou Ge has been shipped.
The grain from Annan has arrived at the Dongjiang River.
As long as North Korea intercepts it, The food can supply the new army for about a month and a half, which should be enough.
There is also gunpowder at the Ordnance Bureau and the Military War Bureau."
At the end of the sentence, I saw him saying a little worriedly: "I can't think of a good way to buy winter clothes for the new army at the moment, and I don't have enough money to purchase them, unless His Majesty decrees to embezzle some money from the Daming Construction Bank":
