Chapter 2516
When these young people arrived in Hong Kong, Qiong Lianfa took the initiative to take the initiative to take over the reception work. The food, accommodation and transportation in the local area were all included and the grade was not low.When they arrived in Kaohsiung, they received warm hospitality from the local officials Lidou. They stayed directly in his private manor and personally arranged tours for them. It can be said that they enjoyed treatment far beyond their status.
With such an experience, these young people will naturally have certain expectations for the situation after arriving in Zhejiang, and the reception work of Dinghai Port in Zhoushan obviously has a relatively obvious gap with this.
Fortunately, they have been taught strictly since they were young, so they will not show dissatisfaction because of this.Just why there is such a gap is a question worth exploring for them.
"That's not necessarily the case. Maybe this is the same treatment for visiting public servants here." Ha Jianyi questioned Bai Letong's views.
Objectively speaking, although they did not receive a warm reception after disembarking from the ship, the official reception process is like this. Apart from the special status of wearing the second generation, ordinary officials are indeed unlikely to receive special treatment in different places. If you don't come here with any special mission, you can't blame the receptionist for business affairs.The courtesy they received in Hong Kong and Kaohsiung before was not because of their positions, but because the other party valued their special status and background.
"There is also a possibility that we didn't expect us to stay in Dinghai Port for one night, so they didn't ask Dinghai Port to prepare a special reception." Tao Hongfang added.
In his opinion, Ha Jianyi's statement is not in line with the actual situation. If the local officials in Zhoushan knew their true identities, they might not be so calm about their arrival.It is more likely that the officials here just regarded their arrival as an ordinary business trip, and they only stayed in Dinghai Port for one night, so naturally there is no need for any special arrangements.
But anyway, a night in a hostel is better than staying on a rickety boat.Although everyone was not very satisfied with the environment here, no one wanted to take the initiative to go back to the boat for the night.
Ning Zijing suggested that everyone go to the business district to have a look, but Ha Jianyi reminded them that the military base has a curfew system, if you delay outside, you may be turned away, and it will be easy to provoke trouble.Everyone weighed it, and it seemed that there was no need to have fun in this place, so they gave up the plan to go to the night market in the business district, rested for a night, and went to visit the local market tomorrow.
So the four of them first took their entourage to the canteen of the guest house to have dinner. Unsurprisingly, they found that most of the guests here were officers who went south and north and passed through Zhoushan, and they also learned more or less about the current situation in the northern region from the conversations of these officers. .
Haihan's two major opponents for many years, the Ming Dynasty and the Manchu Qing Dynasty, both bowed their heads to Haihan last year.However, due to the need for a smooth transition, Haihan did not drive them all to extinction, but retained their status as vassal states. That is to say, these two countries still exist in theory, but the territory and influence they control are much larger than before. Shrunk, it is no longer possible to compete head-on with Hai Han.
However, the surrender of Chongzhen and Shunzhi does not mean that Haihan will be able to take over the territory they ruled in the past.Far inland from the coast, there are still many places that are unwilling to submit to the rule of the new masters.Some want to maintain the status quo, while others want to take advantage of the chaos to revolt. For Haihan, these areas are all unstable factors that require the use of force. Therefore, Haihan's garrison in the northern region is still very busy.
However, due to well-known reasons, the combat method of the Haihan Army relies heavily on logistical supplies. Therefore, it is still difficult for Haihan to go deep into the inland. Therefore, it has to rely on the armed forces of the former Ming or Qing Dynasty to complete tasks in many areas. Although these troops who have just been recruited have the intention of doing meritorious service, most of them do not have the corresponding strength, and the combat effect is not ideal.
In the east of Liaodong, Chen Yixin's troops have firmly controlled the Liaodong Peninsula, the lower reaches of the Yalu River, and the surrounding areas of Shenyang.However, there are still many Jurchen tribes who do not want to return to Haihan to engage in resistance activities in the Songnen Plain and even further north.
These places are often thousands of miles away from Shenyang, not to mention shipping, and may not even have decent official roads. The Haihan army will face many practical difficulties if they want to march to these areas on a large scale.Moreover, these nomads only gather during wartime. If they want to encircle and suppress these highly mobile armed organizations on the vast plains, the existing cavalry strength of the Haihan Army is far from enough.
There is another problem that the Haihan generals cannot ignore, that is, a considerable proportion of the soldiers in the Haihan Army are from the south, and it is difficult to adapt to the extremely cold weather in the Northeast. It will be greatly reduced, so that the generals dare not easily launch active combat operations in winter.
Sitting at the table next to Tao Hongfang and the others, several military officers were talking about some of the conditions they had been stationed in Liaodong.
Then I heard one of the officers with a rough voice say: "...At the end of February, I took more than 3000 reorganized troops all the way to Chagan Lake. I wanted to take down a few tribes there, but the other party withdrew early. Going to the north made us waste nothing, and almost ran out of food and grass, so we almost couldn't make it back."
Another black-faced officer said: "You must have listened to the suggestion of your subordinates and went with the idea of rushing in at a high speed and grabbing the enemy's food and grass for your own use, but this strategy is no longer feasible in the north."
The officer with a rough voice responded, "Why?"
"We have gained experience!" The black-faced officer explained: "If you follow Marshal Chen's request, it will naturally be one step at a time, advance slowly, and fight steadily. But the Qing army that surrendered is more accustomed to attacking quickly, occupying the local area as soon as it hits it. Use the food and troops to strengthen yourself, and then attack the next target in the same way, so as to achieve a snowball attack."
"This method of combat is easy to use against Ming's territory, because Daming's population is relatively concentrated, and a large number of people and wealth can often be captured by conquering a territory. But it is more difficult for these surrendered soldiers to use this tactic to attack their counterparts. They don't fight with our main force at all. We attack and they run away, but now we have no way to occupy those places far away from Shenyang, and they will come back when we withdraw. This repeated consumption, on the contrary, will be our own food supply. Take it easy first. If you want to fight to grab the opponent’s food, the chances of being empty are much higher than the chances of doing meritorious deeds!”
