The canal transportation involves the interests of many officials and has been a severely affected area of ​​corruption since ancient times.

The so-called "each stone of rice is only used to make seven or eight dou of rice", "each grain is used to run a grain of grain, and the officials of the county with a large amount can be rich in hundreds of thousands of dollars." "Each stone of grain is used to get a capital, which is often two or three times the market price in the southeast."

On the surface, the most important problem with canal transportation is that the cost is too high, and the freight cost of canal food is much higher than the value of the rice and grain itself.

But the capital was a "district where all directions came to the back" and "soldiers and merchants lived together" and all rely on the supply of grain. Because the grain problem in the capital was crucial, even if the grain transportation costs a lot of money, it would have to continue to lose money.

Whether it is an official of the Ministry of Revenue or a local official, everyone knows this disadvantage, but no one dares to stop the movement easily. What do you think? Will you starve the emperor to death and stir up civil unrest in the capital?

Therefore, the disadvantages of the canal transportation are so obvious that they have enriched officials and poored the country, but they have been followed.

Zhu Youxiao was also relieved if the decline of the canal transportation would lead to the economic development of the prefectures and counties along the way, which would lead to resistance from officials.

But in his opinion, the officials were not that noble. They wanted to continue making money from the canal transport, so they found some excuses to oppose it.

Don’t understand your tricks? Zhu Youxiao sneered and decided to start from the source and take down Zhu Dadian, the governor’s canal transport, to shock the officials who obstructed the troops.

Gradually expanding the number and scale of shipping is an established policy, not just as simple as fast economic growth. When the Little Ice Age reaches its peak, the drought will make even the Yellow River water dry, and it will be a waste of canal transportation?

Now, although Pingliao is still the first, Jiannu can no longer cause any big storms. As long as Zhu Youxiao does not die, at most, it will cost Jiannu to die for two or three years.

However, how to overcome the disasters that have lasted for decades and how to survive without accumulating civil unrest has become a arduous task as important as Pingliao.

It was the famine and civil war that destroyed the Ming Dynasty. Jiannu just took advantage of the situation and took advantage of it and took a huge advantage. At least that's what Zhu Youxiao thought.

Although the newspapers have predicted the approaching of major disasters, how many people pay attention to it and how many officials are working hard for it?

Zhu Youxiao gently stroked his forehead, thinking about it, thinking that it was necessary to let some local governors and governors come to Beijing to give their instructions solemnly.

Well, they have to prepare first, at least they have to prepare a plan for various measures to resist disasters.

………………………. Dividing lines…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

The gunshots were heard in a whole lot, and they were quick but not messy, and they felt deafening when they were superimposed.

The white smoke rose and dissipated, and even the people hiding on the mountain could smell the choking smell of nitr.

"The Jurchens were repelled again!" Zhang Dongrui stared at him widened his eyes. Although he couldn't see clearly, he could find that Jiannu's attack was resisted by the Ming army and retreated helplessly.

Inside and outside the trench, and on the dozens of meters of flat ground leading to the Ming army's position, Jiannu's corpses were covered with blood and blood, and the bloody red and dazzling.

The smoke of gunpowder completely dissipated, shields, flags, swords and guns, corpses were scattered in a mess, and wounded soldiers screaming and wailing on the ground, a bloody slaughterhouse-like scene appeared in front of people.

Without artillery, not even the simplest grenade car. The Ming army relied on flintlock rifles and bayonets to repel Jiannu's four fierce attacks.

By the way, not only flintlock rifles and bayonets, but also chest walls and trenches effectively provide protection, minimizing the lethality of the enemy's bows and arrows.

The wide but not deep trenches have the effect of hindering the slowdown, making this the area with the worst casualties in Jiannu.

In the narrow front, Jiannu's numerical advantage was not available, and under the nearly constant flintlock wheels, there were heavy casualties.

Daishan's banner was still standing behind the formation, but Yue Tuo was under the command. After failing two fierce attacks, Daishan realized that this was not the place for them to perform.

The terrain is unfavorable, the opponent has a position to rely on, the firearm is both sharp and fast and dense. Although our own troops are large, they cannot be placed, and the bows and arrows are limited in killing, and they cannot consume the enemy equally.

Therefore, Daishan has decided to take a detour. Although Tongyi is the fastest, it is not the only one.

Moreover, Dai Shan was worried that if the time was delayed, there would be a Ming army chasing him behind him. If he was blocked here, the situation would be even worse and it would be possible that the entire army would be wiped out.

Therefore, Daishan had already retreated first and returned north on another remote road. It was not that he was afraid of death, but that he was injured and took a slow car ride and was sought hard by Yue Tuo and Sahalian.

In order to cover up the evacuation of his father and the brigade, Yue Tuo handed over his father to Sahalian and personally directed the attack here to restrain the Ming army.

The blood had already flowed enough. Looking at the tragic scene on the battlefield, Yue Tu felt extremely heartbroken. As long as he estimated, his father and the brigade should have turned on that remote road, and the Ming army had no time to rush to block it.

The narrow battlefield made Jiannu unable to operate, but on the other hand, it also helped Jiannu. That is, it could reduce the attacking force, but it did not seem to be perfunctory.

"The wounded soldiers retreat first." Yue Tuo stopped the attack and made the illusion of rectification, gathered the wounded soldiers as much as possible, and retreated them to the back of the formation.

Since the road is not straight and there are trees and hillsides beside the road, even if the Ming army had telescopes, their vision was blocked.

Jiannu said that at least three or four thousand were killed or injured, and Kong Youde on the opposite side was also estimating.

Such a result has met his expectations, and of course he also knew that it was obviously unlikely that he would want to intercept Jiannu and then wipe out all out in one fell swoop.

The three thousand dragon cavalry he led was almost the limit to block Jiannu's fastest and most recent road to return to the north. He was unable to do anything else.

Of course, if Jiannu had to hang himself on a tree and had to break through the blockade here, then wait to be attacked from the front and back and be wiped out!

"Jiannu seems to be retreating." General Xiang Zuolin frowned and ran down from a high place to report, "It's not very real, but it should be similar."

Kong Youde smiled bitterly. Jiannu might have chosen to take a detour, but he could not divide his troops to intercept him. Jiannu on the opposite side was still staring at this place!

If General Zhang's troops, Kong Youde, shook his head, knew that the troops led by Zhang Keda were almost all infantry, and he would not be able to block all roads in terms of speed.

"Let them go!" Kong Youde waved his hand helplessly and said, "We have tried our best and we have achieved great results."

After pausing, he stressed again: "We can't take it lightly now. We must beware of Jiannu's sudden killing and retaliating."

"The last general will receive the order." Xiang Zuolin bowed and turned away.

Kong Youde once again paid attention to the Jiannu and his actions and banners opposite him, and found that the banner of goodness had not moved, but at this time he felt that this might be for him to see.

Two red flags, after several battles in Liaonan, almost one flag was broken, right? Kong Youde showed a sneer and slowly lowered the telescope.

If there are more than two or three thousand cavalrymen, the Jiannu of the two flags will be almost blocked from the road to return to the north and will be completely finished.

He shook his head with some regrets, and Kong Youde also felt that it would be difficult for the court to ask for war horses to be transferred to the court again. Long live his investment in the Dongjiang Army, which is why the Dongjiang Army continues to grow.

Of course, Kong Youde didn't know that Zhu Youxiao had set a more amazing goal, that is, the troops in Liaodong and northern military towns would have no infantry in three years.

The so-called distinction between infantry and cavalry will be the difference in combat methods. That is to say, infantry ride horses and dismount to fight; cavalry will all be completed immediately.

The success of Ping Liao was not the end, and the impact of the Little Ice Age was also quite heavy for the nomadic peoples in the north.

In history, whenever the climate is harsh and the disasters are frequent, it is also the most concentrated time for the northern nomadic peoples to go south to loot.

There is nothing else, disasters will cause a large number of deaths from cattle, horses and sheep. Without the materials to be taken out for exchange, the only way to grab them is left.

………………………………………

The wind is blowing, the grass is shaking; the blue sky and white clouds are above our heads, and the Mongolian cavalry who have been beaten to flee in a deserted manner.

Amin stopped the horse's head, narrowed his eyes and looked into the distance, and snorted, with contempt and a little joy of victory.

When the Mongolian cavalry rushed to Nonganta, Amin was both surprised and angry when he received the news.

What was surprised was that the Mongolians had such courage, and what was angry was that they thought the Mongolians looked down on him, the Erbeile of the Later Jin Dynasty.

Although Nurhaci started from the overall situation and was unwilling to create more enemies, he did not take the initiative to start war with the Mongolian tribes, and even left a buffer zone to avoid conflict.

However, the Mongolian tribes still took the initiative to launch several attacks on the Later Jin army, such as the five Neikalka tribes who had more than 10,000 troops to aid the Ming army in Tieling, and once fought fiercely with the Later Jin army.

There are also military operations of Mongolian tribes to take advantage of the emptiness of Shenyang and send troops to attack Shenyang and rescue the banned Qisenoyan.

In these two battles, the Later Jin army ended with victory, and found out the combat power and reality of the Mongolian tribes, and found a way to defeat the enemy.

If the Ming army had not launched the attack on all sides, Nurhaci was preparing to send elite troops in the autumn to launch a rapid strike on Neikalka to punish his head and rats and personally attach to the Ming court.

In short, the Beile generals of the Later Jin Dynasty were very clear about the combat power of the Mongolian army and were very confident in fighting with the Mongolian soldiers.

Moreover, Nong'anta is not a city, and the Later Jin army is not good at defense. Faced with the fierce arrival of the Mongolian cavalry, Amin had only one choice, that is, to lead the army to fight.

In the first battle, in the Halahai, north of Nonganta, Amin led his army to defeat the vanguard of the Mongolian army of 2,000 people and pursued Hongquan, where he encountered 5,000 troops from the Zarut tribe of the Mongolian army.

Although the troops were of equal strength, Amin did not take the Mongolian army on the other side at all, and led his troops to attack. The Mongolian army fought hard, but they were defeated and fled northward.

Amin led his army to chase and kill until Tao Haotai.

Speaking of which, Amin's troops won consecutive victories and chased nearly a hundred miles, and the distance was not far. Amin was also skilled in battle formations, and he changed quickly and slowly when chasing, trying his best to maintain manpower and horsepower, so as not to make his army a tired army.

"Report to Master Beile, ten miles ahead, a large number of Mongolian troops were found, about 10,000, and they were waiting in line." The scout in front rushed back to report, bringing new information.

Amin nodded, not surprised.

If the Mongolian coalition wanted to attack Korqin, it would have to dispatch at least tens of thousands of troops, perhaps more. However, the number of those who fought with him was wrong.

Since they were waiting in line, don't let the Mongolians wait. Amin didn't think that his five thousand elite cavalry could not defeat more than ten thousand Mongolian troops. He immediately blew the horn, assembled the troops, and also listed the formation, and slowly pressed forward.

Continuous fraudulent defeat finally led Jiannu into a trap. Amin and these thousands of Jiannu have left you without a return.

Man Gui, the tiger is powerful and as fierce as a tiger, each leading a team of thousands of people, and is arranged in the middle of the Mongolian coalition. The Chahar tribe on the left and the Zarut tribe on the right. On the wide and flat grassland, we watched the battle formation of the Later Jin army slowly approach.

Although it is wide and flat in front of you, the grassland also has ups and downs and hills, not endless.

On the left side of the battlefield left by the coalition forces, there is a low ridge with green grass and green stretching for hundreds of meters. A few dozen meters behind the ridge, an unknown small river flowing.

Just on the backslope, a thousand musketeers lay silently on the ground, waiting for the order to act.

The two armies confronted each other at a distance of hundreds of meters. Amin saw the ridge of the grass and the river. He did not think that many people could be hidden in such a narrow place, nor did he think that it would have any impact on the frontal war.

The whimpering horn sounded, and the Mongolian coalition launched first. More than two thousand cavalrymen shouted and shouted from both wings and rode towards the Later Jin army.

Just shoot slowly, stop it!

Amin sneered, waved his hand and ordered, and sent cavalry to attack the enemy.

Due to the advantages of armor, the bows and arrows shot by Mongolian soldiers with light leather armor are very lethal to the Later Jin army. Conversely, the bows and arrows of the Later Jin army can show their power.

The war horses galloped, like two torrents, rushing forward and about to collide together.

However, the Mongolian cavalry did not, as expected by the Later Jin army, rushed out the arrows in their hands as soon as they reached the range, then turned around, and relied on their superb riding skills to cross the battlefield horizontally and run to the left.

The killing of this round of bows and arrows on the Later Jin cavalry was invisible, and galloping to the left was more like leaving the battlefield.

The Later Jin cavalry also turned around, and the enemy's behavior was even more cowardly, arousing their excitement and ferocity. They made strange screams and scoldings, and chased the Mongolian army.

The Mongolian cavalry swept across the battlefield, changed direction again, and turned to the ridge of grass and returned to the formation.

The cavalry of the Later Jin army shot arrows, shot some Mongolian cavalry off their horses, and then raked their bows and arrows again, chasing them.

Amin observed the battlefield and felt that it was possible to take advantage of the pursuit to disrupt the enemy's formation and launch a general attack himself...

A loud arrow shot into the air, making a sharp whistle, interrupting Amin's thoughts.

On the raised grass, a long row of closely arranged figures suddenly stood up and launched a volley at the passing Later Jin cavalry.

Amid the roar of gunfire, the Later Jin cavalry fell down with their men and horses.

Amin suddenly widened his eyes. He was familiar with the gunshot!
