The Last Action Is His Chapter 234

Emperor Chongzhen seldom issued strict orders, so his attitude this time made many military generals suddenly feel awed and alert immediately.

Afterwards, Emperor Chongzhen began to deploy specific tactics. One principle was not to fight a protracted war, but to capture cities and territories in a rapid and continuous manner, so as to prevent the Jianlu from even having a chance to escape.

It was sixty miles from Haizhou City to Anshan Post, and another sixty miles from Anshan Post to Liaoyang. Emperor Chongzhen required that the infantry must complete the sixty miles a day and set up camp to surround the next target. If a unit failed to arrive on time, he would punish the general!

From Liaoyang to Shenyang, it is also about 120 li, with a Hupi Post Station in the middle. Emperor Chongzhen also required that the infantry must reach Shenyang within two days.

His requirements were a bit high for ancient armies, because the imperial army was marching in enemy territory and could be attacked at any time, so the infantry could not take off their armor, which was equivalent to marching with heavy loads.
