Chapter Four Hundred and Eight: Prepare for the Japanese Revolution
"Tsk tsk, OK boy! When this battle is over, you will have to fight the south and north, and you will have to fight the east and west. The south and the south are the only one who has not fought, hahahaha!"
The former banister Wang Jing Seoul, the general manager of the Beiwu Strategic Headquarters. Looking at Wang Bing, who had just received the imperial edict and military talisman seal, and had changed from "Beiwu Strategic Headquarters" to "Preventing the Japanese Strategic Headquarters", the two old generals of the Undefeated Military God and Ma Gui couldn't help but look at them with envy.
There is no way. Official positions like General Strategy have always been held by civil servants in the past. But Wang Bing not only took up this position as a military general, but also led the army to fight abroad with this position.
You should know that in addition to economic and political reasons, the previous opposition to sending troops to Japan was also a major factor in worrying that military generals would go abroad and seeking independence.
Therefore, even if Emperor Yongle sent a fleet to overseas missions, he would have used eunuchs as the leader, rather than civil officials and military generals.
However, the fat man gave full trust to Wang Bing's troops this time to conquer the Japanese. Not only did he not take back the rights of the Japanese general strategy before, he even gave him the full power to go to war and negotiate with the Japanese general strategy.
"It's just a change of title. There's no difference between soldiers or generals or generals, hehe!"
Wang Bing grinned very much at the praise of the two old coaches.
"Boy, how are you going to fight this time? Should you destroy the country or...?"
Verse, who ignored Wang Bing, turned the topic to this battle to fight against Japan.
"Haha, let's forget about destroying his country for the time being! Didn't the 'monkey' want our Ming and his relatives to cede land and pay compensation? This time, the boy was more generous and just follow the conditions they had put forward, hehe!"
After hearing the inquiries of the two old coaches, Wang Bing took the terms of peace talks proposed by the monkey as the target of this battle to conquer the Japanese without thinking.
In fact, Wang Bing had thought of destroying this disgusting Japanese country. It was just that it was easy to destroy its country, but Wang Bing did not catch a cold if he wanted to cure the land.
Therefore, in his plan, except for ceding the Japanese Kyushu, other places were not prepared to occupy them. At least, the Ming Dynasty would not occupy them!
"The order was sent to Li Chengming as the chief general of the rear army, and two thousand people were drawn from Jizhen, Liaodong, Xuanda, Haixi Zuo, and Central Guards, plus three thousand Yulins, a total of 15,000 people were under his command. He was responsible for guarding the Three Koreans and the logistics transfer of the army. At the same time, he used Japanese prisoners of war and the "Kingmen's traitors" who had surrendered to the Japanese before to build a cement straight road that connects the three Koreans and the north and south to connect Liaodong!"
"In addition, the general commander of the Japanese general commander and his army moved from Seoul to Busan, and the Royal Navy cooperated with landing training in preparation for the battle to land in the future!"
After confirming the strategy of expedition to the Japanese, Wang Bing immediately issued the first order as the general strategy of expedition to the Japanese.
...
"Marquis, it's okay to just transport the army with the Royal Navy's warships, but it's really hard to transport all the war horses of the army to Japan! So Marquis, can you, can you transport less war horses..."
Outside Busan Port, looking at the army that was carrying out landing training under the cooperation of the navy, Chen Lin, the navy admiral, complained to Wang Bing with a embarrassed look.
There was no way. In addition to the army guarding the Three Koreans and the soldiers who were recovering from the wounded, there were still almost 100,000 soldiers who were preparing to land in Japan this time.
Except for the 6,000 Qi family soldiers, the rest, whether they are Yulin Guards, Haixi, and Jianzhou Guards, are all cavalry. Even if they are counted as one person and one horse, they still have more than 90,000 war horses.
It is not easy to transport all so many war horses to Japan even if they are just separated by a narrow strait.
After all, in this era, even the largest sea ship in the Ming Dynasty and the sealed boat were only about fifteen feet long. At present, the largest lucky ship warship of the Royal Navy is only about ten feet long. And the total of such lucky ship warships is only dozens.
Therefore, Chen Lin, who really couldn't solve this problem, had to come and discuss with Wang Bing to see if he could reduce the transportation of some war horses.
"General Chen, Yulin Guard is okay. But if the four Haixi Guards and the Jianzhou Army do not have war horses, their combat power will not be able to be exerted at all!"
Hearing Chen Lin say this, Wang Bing can't help but frown and shake his head.
"Marty, there are actually horses in Japan, so it's better to be there..."
Seeing Wang Bing frowning and shaking his head, Chen Lin mentioned the local horses of Japan.
"Wu horse? Old General Chen, are you not kidding? Look at the figure of our soldiers, they are just Japanese horses that are similar to donkeys. When our soldiers ride on them, they will probably have to tiptoe to help, haha!"
When Wang Bing heard Chen Lin's talk about the Japanese horse, he couldn't help but feel speechless. The Japanese horse was short and paired with the same short Japanese horse. But if the Ming army, which was generally a lot taller than the Japanese, was riding such a horse, what's the difference between it and riding a donkey?
"General Chen, let the navy soldiers work hard and take down Tsubasa Island first to temporarily place horses. After the army landed in Nagoya, the navy will take a few more trips and transport the horses slowly!"
In desperation, Wang Bing had no choice but to give up his previous plan to cross the strait and land in Nagoya, and prepared to use Tsushima Island as the transit base just like when the Japanese invaded.
‘Oh, it would be great if there were dozens of treasure ships that the three treasure eunuchs went to the West when they were! It’s a pity that they had no drawings to build now!’
After arranging the matter of taking Tsushima Island as a transit base, Wang Bing couldn't help but remember the legendary treasure ship and sea road drawings burned by Liu Daxia.
But what he didn't know was that the so-called Liu Daxia burned the treasure ship and the sea road drawings was simply a false story and spread rumors. In fact, the drawings and sea road drawings of Zheng He's treasure ship are still well preserved in the Da Nei Secret Library at this moment!
But now that he knew the existence of this drawing, it was too late to go to time, so he could only use Tsushima Island as a transit station to slowly transfer the goods.
However, in addition to the misfortune of transportation, Wang Bing felt relieved that Zhang Xueyan, the minister of the Ministry of Revenue, was determined to issue war dividends, the efficiency of the court this time was not very high.
Less than half a month after Wang Bing received the transfer from "Preparation of Japanese General Strategy" to "Preparation of Japanese General Strategy", various military equipment and food and salary were transported to Busan by sea.
