At the lord's manor.
"Report!"
"My lord, Zhao Dahai from the First Thousand-Household Bureau at the front line has come to report. The first thousand-man army abandoned their supplies and quickly marched for dozens of miles, successfully reaching the Southern Pass.”
"We found that there are only a few dozen soldiers guarding the South Pass. The Manchu Dynasty did not pay much attention to the South Pass.”
"Zhao Dahai made a prompt decision and led the army to charge into the Southern Pass in a surprise attack. He caught the Tartars off guard!”
"We have successfully annihilated the Southern Pass's garrison and taken over the Southern Pass!”
"In this battle, our army did not lose a single person. Only a few soldiers were injured because they were too eager to get their heads.”
A staff officer reported to Li Sheng excitedly.
When he heard that the few injured soldiers had injured themselves in a hurry to get their heads, he was shocked.
The advisors in the conference room couldn't help but laugh.
Li Sheng couldn't help but laugh when he heard that.
Although he did not personally witness the battle of his soldiers, he could imagine how relaxed it was on the battlefield.
Dozens of Tartars were not enough to kill his soldiers.
From this, it could be inferred that there weren't many elites left in Liaodong.
Although it was too much to say that the old, weak, and sick were too much.
However, facing his men, these Manchu Tartars who stayed behind were no different from the old and weak.
Li Sheng knew very well what his men were like.
Being competitive was just an appearance.
The most terrifying thing about his soldiers was that they were not afraid of death and were not afraid of the enemy's life.
There was no need to consider the risk of morale collapsing and the entire army being defeated.
Fighting against the wind was the time for them to truly show their true abilities.
Since ancient times, it was not surprising for an army to be good at fighting with the wind.
The truly difficult part was still fighting against the wind.
Every army that could turn the tables in a desperate situation would leave their names in history!
One could imagine how much shock an army that could fight against the wind and dared to fight against the wind would bring to the world with their tenacious fighting will.!
After receiving the news from the front line, he read it carefully.
Li Sheng immediately took out a red flag and inserted it into the sand table on the table.
The sand table map was a map of the entire Golden State Guard.
They had planted their weapons at the most important strategic location of Lushun Peninsula, the Southern Pass.
Southern Pass was in his hands!
What he needed to do next was to plant red flags all over the Lushun Peninsula south of Nanguan and dye it red!
Not a single bit of white was left!
After doing all this, Li Sheng pondered for a moment and immediately ordered,"Order the farmers to immediately set off for the Southern Pass, gather the supplies, and transport them to the Southern Pass!”
"Build a road from the territory to the South Pass. It will only take an hour for the goods to be transported to the South Pass!”
"Completely turn the South Pass defense line into a natural moat that the Qing Tartars can't cross!”
Logistics was the key to war!
Logistics was not just about the materials produced and the materials stored.
The most important thing was transportation.
They had to transport the resources from the rear to the front line with the greatest efficiency.
Only the materials that could be used at the front line could be considered real logistics.
Li Sheng had a clear understanding of this.
Therefore, he immediately ordered the construction of a road from the territory to the South Pass.
For now, they could temporarily build a dirt road and expand it to transport supplies urgently to the front line of the South Pass.
In the future, he would rebuild this road and use cement!
It became a cement road!
Even if it was a carriage, it could transport the territory's resources to the front line in just half an hour!
At that time, he would be able to fight a war of attrition with the Manchu Empire.
Let's see who can afford it!
The people at the front line were eating their food, while large amounts of rations were consumed on the way.
Could the Manchu Empire withstand such a consumption?
Even if he could endure it and could afford to waste it, he would still have a headache!
At that time, the Manchu army would naturally retreat without fighting.
To Li Sheng, being able to repel the Qing army was a victory.
As for counterattacking, pushing the general north to the entire Golden State Guard?
That would take time!
At least for now, he could not do that!
Even if he could, he wouldn't do it.
To him, he had to develop the territory, increase the production of resources, and increase his military strength.
At that time, he could easily push back the Manchu Dynasty. That was the way of the king!
He would not do anything that would affect the development of the territory.
They would build roads and a defensive line to block the Qing army north of the South Pass.
After these two major matters were arranged.
Li Sheng's gaze began to look south of Nanguan, the Lushun Peninsula that was over a thousand square kilometers.
All the preparations he had made and all the resources he had used.
It was for the entire Lushun Peninsula.
Now, he could enjoy the Lushun Peninsula without any restraint.
This was also the fattest spoils of war he had obtained from this expedition!
"Order Zhao Dahai to mobilize a few centurions under the First Thousand-Household Bureau to go south from the South Pass and wipe out all the Manchu Tartar villages on Lushun Peninsula!”
"Finally!"
Li Sheng looked at the southernmost Lushunkou, the best port in the north.
Immediately, he stuck a red flag on it and punched it heavily."Take back Lushunkou!”
Lushunkou was an extremely important port for Li Sheng.
Once the territory took over the entire Lushun Peninsula and established the South Pass defense line, they would be able to completely block the Qing army outside the South Pass and be invincible.
The development of the territory couldn't go north.
If he didn't want to be locked in Lushun Peninsula, he had to develop in the ocean and expand from the ocean to obtain the resources that his territory needed.
At that time, Lushunkou would become the territory's most important resource entrance.
Before they charged out of Lushun Peninsula, they would have to take almost all the resources from Lushun.
Therefore, after taking down Lushunkou.
He had to manage Lushunkou well.
The prosperity of Lushunkou was restored.
No, it was more prosperous than Lushunkou in the past!
This was what he had to do!
With this order, the entire territory became busy again.
The manpower and resources mobilized this time were far greater than before.
After taking down the South Pass, it would be the start of the territory's real mobilization.
A large number of farmers were recruited from the houses and rushed to the front line of the South Pass to work overtime to build the defense line.
Behind them, they were also frantically building roads to the front line of the South Pass.
Apart from that, the 1st Thousand-Household Bureau that was stationed at the South Pass had five Baihu Bureau under its command. They split into five groups and started to sweep through the entire Lushun Peninsula.
Wherever it passed, it was filled with the despairing wails of the Qing Tartars as well as a storm of blood.
At the same time, it was accompanied by the earth-shattering cheers of the rescued Han people celebrating their rebirth!
