The most reckless man in the Ming Dynasty.

Chapter 342: Comprehensive Suppression of the Jurchen Barbarians
Jeju Racecourse!

Tang Mu kept urging his soldiers.

"faster!"

"Carry the horses onto the warships!"

"I have been thinking about this battle in Liaodong for a long time. If you don't make it in time, I will peel off your skin!"

When the soldiers heard this, they all laughed uncontrollably. After all, Tang Mu was not the only warmongering person. They also longed to go to the Liaodong battlefield.

It was just that the three thousand soldiers led by Tang Mu were ordered to come to the Jeju Racecourse, transfer all the war horses that could be used in the racecourse, and then take a warship to the former site of the Jilin Shipyard!

The Jilin Shipyard was established during the Hongwu period. It was responsible for building and maintaining the Jilin navy. It was a transit station between Andongwei and Yuansanwanhu Mansion to convey government orders and transport supplies. As a result, Xuande completely withdrew the front line and moved the Nurgandusi inland, and the Jilin Shipyard was abandoned.

The mission of Tangmu's troops was to land at the mouth of the Jilin Shipyard in Nurgandusi by boat, and then wait for the arrival of reinforcements from Korea. Tangmu would temporarily control the Korean army, encircle and suppress the Jurchen tribe from the rear, and make sure that no Jianzhou Jurchen would escape!
Wang Dabao was very excited, but unfortunately he had a broken arm, so he lost the qualification to continue fighting on the battlefield.

"General, will North Korea send troops?"

Hearing this, Tang Mu sneered: "They'd better send troops. Otherwise, after the Marquis has dealt with the Jurchens, I think he won't mind sending troops directly to Korea!"

Wang Dabao trembled, then nodded with a smile.

Back then, the Marquis led 10,000 Beijing troops and wiped out the entire Japan, turning it into a slave state of the Ming Dynasty.

If Korea does not send troops, then my lord will lead another 10,000 soldiers to Korea to demand accountability. I am afraid that Korea will become the second slave state of the Ming Dynasty!
Well, that’s not a bad thing!
"Not very likely!"

Tang Mu chuckled and said, "North Korea has always been very respectful to our Ming Dynasty. It is so respectful that it makes people feel distressed. There is no chance for us to cause trouble."

"This time, with Cui Tan's mediation, even if 30,000 troops are impossible, at least 10,000 troops are still available. Didn't Cui Tan get promoted to the Minister of State? If he doesn't even have this ability, then the Marquis will be unhappy!"

If Marquis Zhongshan was unhappy, the consequences would naturally be serious.

At the very least, Cui Tan, the powerful official, will be brought down immediately!

"Just keep an eye on the horse farm!"

"This stable is our lifeblood. What great war horses!"

Tang Mu laughed and then walked straight onto the warship.

I have to admit, North Korean horses are good!
Korean horses have excellent breeds and performance characteristics, such as strong physique, strong endurance, fast speed and high adaptability.

The climate and soil of Jeju Island are suitable for raising horses. In addition, Jeju horses are a cross between horses brought from the Mongolian Plateau during the Yuan Dynasty and native Goryeo horses. They have the advantages of both Mongolian horses and Goryeo horses, so they are undoubtedly the best among them!
This time, Lord Tang was determined to wipe out all the Jurchen barbarians. He not only ordered Korea to send troops, but also transferred war horses from Jeju Horse Farm. His determination was far greater than before.

Tang Mu was looking towards Liaodong, thinking about a question.

Once Liaodong is pacified, can we get back the hereditary imperial edicts that were taken away from us?

At the same time, Fushun Pass in Liaodong.

Tang Hao was on an urgent march with 7,000 Beijing troops and 10,000 elite troops from Liaodong led by Han Fu.

The Fushun Pass is located on a commanding height in the north of the Hunhe River Valley. It is an important passage for the Jurchen Jianzhou and other guards to the Liaoshen Plain, and is also one of the important passes in the Liaodong Town of the Ming Great Wall.

During most of the peaceful period, Fushun Pass and Fushun City were the main gateways for the Ming Dynasty to open up the horse market trade to the Jianzhou Jurchens. Through the Fushun horse market, a large number of iron farm tools and oxen, as well as advanced Han production technology, were imported to the Jianzhou Jurchens. This laid a strong material foundation for the rise, development and final unification of the Jurchens. Unfortunately, these damn Jurchen barbarians were ungrateful and instead turned around to plunder and harass.

Of course, Fushun Guanma Market was established from the very beginning to serve the political needs of the Ming Dynasty.

"Fushun Fushun", you know the meaning just by listening to the name.

Since the Jurchens were relatively backward at that time, they lacked iron farm tools, oxen, cloth, salt and other production and living supplies, so they could only exchange local specialties such as horses, ginseng and mink fur at the horse market. It should be said that the horse market was more important to the Jurchens.

Therefore, "opening the market" and "closing the market" naturally became a means for the Ming Dynasty to control and hold the Jianzhou Jurchens hostage. Sometimes, in order to restrict the development of the Jurchens, the Ming court simply closed the market for a long time, causing great damage to the Jurchens' social economy.

Historically, in the 44th year of the Wanli reign, Nurhaci established the Great Jin regime in Hetuala. In the 46th year of the Wanli reign, he formally declared war on the Ming Dynasty. Nurhaci's first attack on the Ming Dynasty was the attack on Fushun Pass.

In fact, after successive generations of efforts, the Ming Dynasty built walls along the line from Kaiyuan, Tieling, Fushun to the Yalu River during the Chenghua period, creating a powerful border defense system. There were 98 border forts and 849 watchtowers along the line, and the garrisons in the border forts ranged from 500 to 600 to 40 to 50 people.

Along this thousand-mile defense line, there is a fort every ten miles, a platform every five miles, and many strong passes and narrow passes, as well as beacon towers and lookout towers. These form a solid defense line, which is an important barrier to protect the capital Beijing.

Tang Hao and Han Fu are exchanging views on border defense.

"Since the imperial court has strictly enforced rewards and punishments, the morale of the soldiers and civilians in the border towns has been greatly boosted!"

Han Fu smiled and said, "Those who behead one of the captives will be given thirty taels of silver, and those who wish to be promoted will be promoted according to the rules. The rest of the people will be given hats and belts, named as volunteers, and their corvée will be restored. If you gather the villagers to behead more than five captives, the leader will be promoted to the post of pacification. For those who take back the captives, one-tenth of the captives will be used as a reward." "In the past, soldiers and civilians in border towns were afraid of fighting because of unclear rewards and punishments, and the bravery of the barbarians. Even if the barbarians came to the door, the soldiers and civilians would hide behind the city walls and dare not show their heads at all."

"Because even if they fight to the death to kill a barbarian, they won't get the reward they deserve. On the contrary, if they get injured or even die in battle, they won't get any compensation. Under such circumstances, naturally no one is willing to fight to the death!"

"After the rewards and punishments were clearly defined, not only did the combat effectiveness of the border troops improve, but their reconnaissance and defense capabilities were also greatly improved. They could often anticipate the enemy and deploy troops for defense. The officers and soldiers' sense of responsibility and morale were much higher than before."

"All this is thanks to Lord Tang..."

Han Fu praised sincerely, but Tang Hao just smiled and shook his head.

"You're welcome, General."

"I'm just offering some suggestions."

"If there hadn't been a general in Liaodong, the situation would have deteriorated into chaos long ago. The general's achievements should be remembered by the world!"

The two of them praised each other and the atmosphere was harmonious.

Han Fu also felt a little emotional. He had heard many rumors about this Marquis of Zhongshan before, and most of them were bad.

He was arrogant and domineering, tyrannical and unjust, and took advantage of his favor to become proud... Anyway, he looked like a typical treacherous and treacherous minister.

However, after communicating for this period of time, Han Fu was surprised to find that those were just misunderstandings of Lord Tang by the world.

Not only is he incredibly powerful and brave in battle, he also has extraordinary military strategy and military vision that is far beyond that of ordinary generals. What is even more rare is the compassion that Lord Tang has towards the soldiers in the border towns.

This is a true military hero!
No wonder he could carry the banner of military honors, rebuild the five prefectures, and open up a path to promotion for soldiers all over the world!
"Lord Tang, in addition to the royal army and Korean reinforcements, perhaps we can also recruit the Jurchens for our own use!"

"The Wild Jurchens have always been excluded from the two major forces of Haixi Jurchens and Jianzhou Jurchens. In addition, they are still wild and are only interested in small profits. Perhaps we can use some means to bribe them and make them turn against us or block the roads leading into the mountains. In this way, our army's battle may be much easier."

Han Fu put forward his opinion. After all, Han Fu was very good at the strategy of "using barbarians to control barbarians".

Liaodong was filled with a large number of barbarian tribes, and Han Fu, the Liaodong commander-in-chief, used his ability to the utmost in order to stabilize the situation in Liaodong.

"It is indeed important to bribe the Wild Jurchens. It can open the way to the Nurgandusi from the Wild Jurchens' territory."

"After annihilating the Jianzhou Jurchens, I will lead my army northward along the Yalu River. The road to the west across the Songhua River is the territory of the Wild Jurchens. It is necessary to bribe the local chieftains and let them lead the way for my army and deceive the trust of the Haixi Jurchens."

Tang Hao agreed with Han Fu's suggestion and said, "Of course, that was before we wiped out the Jianzhou Jurchens!"

"Now, what we have to do is to dig a hole in the Jianzhou Jurchens, and then completely kill these despicable and damned Jurchen bastards until they are completely wiped out, leaving no one alive!"

Hearing this, Han Fu couldn't help but feel shocked.

The whole clan will be wiped out, not even a single chicken or dog will be left alive!
The hatred that this Marquis of Zhongshan had for the Jurchens was truly frightening!

However, he did not ask any more questions, but led his 10,000 elite troops to set up the trap.

The elite soldiers of Liaodong were also equipped with three-barreled guns and Rumi guns, so they were full of confidence and courage when facing these Jurchen barbarians!

"General Han, remember our combat objectives!"

"The whole clan will be wiped out, and no one will be left alive. This time, we will not take any prisoners!"

Han Fu trembled and nodded quickly.

After he left, Tang Hao led his army straight to a Jianzhou Jurchen tribe outside Fushun Pass.

The Hunhe River basin area southeast of Mashi, Fushun, was the garrison of the Hunhe tribe of the Jianzhou Jurchens. It was named after its location along the Hunhe River.

The moment the Ming army appeared, the young and strong Jurchens of the Hunhe tribe discovered them. However, because the Ming army was too large in number and full of murderous intent, these Jurchen cavalry did not dare to take the initiative to attack for a while, but immediately went back to report to the tribal chief.

This is the first time that so many Ming troops have left Fushun Pass and reached their grazing grounds!
What do these damn Ming people want to do?
Many female immortals felt a chill run through their bodies when they saw this scene.

For some reason, they felt uneasy instinctively, but they didn't know why!
Tang Hao simply waved his hand and decisively gave the order to attack.

"Attack based on the battalion!"

"Kill them all, leaving no one alive!"
