From the capital to Jinling, from Jinling to Nanchang, Jiangxi, the straight-line distance is more than 3,000 miles, and finally, Song Yingchang came to Nanchang City, which is closer to Guangdong.

Song Yingchang planned to stay in Nanchang City for a while, and when he was about to take action against the thieves in Guangdong, he would personally go to the front line to sit in town, as a general of the unified army, it was impossible to stay away from the army.

After coming to Nanchang City, because it was closer to Guangdong, the information about Guangdong was sent to Song Yingchang faster, every time he looked at the information of the People's Army, Song Yingchang frowned, from this information, Song Yingchang could see that the People's Army was a big enemy!

The enemy is very strong, except for Qiongzhou and Lianzhou, Guangdong has already fallen, not only Guangdong, but also Huaiji County in eastern Guangxi, and Dingnan, Longnan, Anyuan, and Changning counties in southern Jiangxi have all been captured by the People's Army.

If the Ming army takes control, the people's army will be very passive, and if these areas are occupied, the people's army will have a lot less trouble.

From this alone, Song Yingchang can see that there are capable people in the people's army, not ordinary chaotic people.

"There are great talents in the People's Army, why don't you serve my Daming, but take refuge in that thief?" Song Yingchang was a little puzzled.

Regarding the information of the People's Army, Song Yingchang has collected a lot of information, from the appearance of the People's Army to the intelligence of all the People's Army today, Song Yingchang will pick up the information of the People's Army every time he has free time to read it, and carefully study the People's Army, and at the same time, Song Yingchang also has a lot of doubts in his mind.

Intelligence shows that the People's Army suddenly appeared in September last year, and as soon as it appeared, it directly captured Yong'an County and Haifeng County in Huizhou Prefecture, Guangdong, and not long after, more than 5,000 Jieshiwei stationed in Haifeng County were also killed.

According to estimates, the KPA had more than 10,000 troops at this time, which was neither too much nor too little, and most of the KPA non-commissioned officers were wearing shabby clothes, and they were farmers who had not been taking up arms for a long time, but there was also an elite unit that needed attention.

This elite unit is equipped with sharp firearms, and the maximum firing range of the firearms is more than 200 zhang, which is unmatched by many firearms equipped by the Ming army, and even the range of many artillery pieces is not as far as this firecracker.

With that sharp firearm, the People's Army defeated the Ming army again and again, capturing one city after another.

This is a sharp firearm that is better than the Ming army's firearms, where did the People's Army come from?

Song Yingchang didn't think that the People's Army could create such a good firearm, and after thinking about it carefully, Song Yingchang thought of a possible source of this firearm.

The Ming Dynasty itself was able to build all kinds of firearms, but the best Franc cannon was foreign, and then the Ming Dynasty itself copied it in large quantities, and the imitation model was not inferior to the foreign-made Franc cannon.

Could it be that the firearms of the KPA came from foreigners?

This idea appeared in Song Yingchang's mind, and soon more ideas were derived, how could the People's Army have the money to buy firearms from foreigners? Could the People's Army be supported by foreigners? Why do foreigners support the People's Army......

It's all Song Yingchang's thoughts, and he can't be sure, but Song Yingchang has already sent someone to investigate in this direction, if it is only a firearm purchased by the People's Army from foreigners, then Daming can also buy it, and even prevent foreigners from selling firearms to the People's Army.

Song Yingchang believes that the Ming Dynasty has this ability, the Ming Naval Division is very strong, and whoever comes to the territory of the Ming Dynasty will not be the opponent of the Ming Naval Division, if the foreigners continue to sell firearms to the People's Army, then the Ming Naval Division will kill the foreigners' fleet.

The firearms issue is followed by the top level of the People's Army, according to intelligence, the top level of the People's Army is very young, only about 20 years old, and they are all literate, but the text of the People's Army is somewhat different from the text of the Ming Dynasty, the People's Army calls the text of the Ming Dynasty as traditional Chinese characters, and the text of the People's Army is simplified, simply put, simplified Chinese characters are simplified from traditional Chinese characters, which is more convenient to write.

The People's Army has sharp firearms, and if only the People's Army cannot do it, then it is impossible for the People's Army to occupy most of Guangdong in a few months.

However, the People's Army was led by such a group of young people around 20 years old to defeat the Ming Army again and again, and Song Yingchang could feel that this group of young people was not ordinary.

But according to the intelligence, this group of young people has never appeared in the outside world before, it is said that it is a group of mountain people, how can the mountain people have such talent?

And the Metropolitan Governor of the People's Army is said to be the teacher of other high-ranking members of the People's Army, but this Metropolitan Governor is only about twenty years old, and he is also a young man, how can he teach so many talented peers, this is amazing.

As for the words such as "the governor of the capital is an immortal" shown in the intelligence, Song Yingchang ignored them all.

After thinking about it again and again, Song Yingchang guessed that this young Metropolitan Governor should not be the real chief envoy of the People's Army, and behind the People's Army, there may be a force that tried to subvert the Ming Dynasty, so he taught the Metropolitan Governor and even other high-level officials of the People's Army.

However, there is no way to investigate this idea, and the People's Army has only appeared for a few months, and the People's Army should have already existed, but no one has discovered it, let alone the forces that may be hidden behind it.

The People's Army defeated the Ming Army again and again, and after defeating the Ming Army and occupying a large area of territory, it was very good to the common people under its rule, giving the people free land distribution, and soon, those ordinary people who should be loyal to the Ming Dynasty were all devoted to the People's Army.

The People's Army's approach simply frightened Song Yingchang, millions of ordinary people in Guangdong, if the People's Army sent these ordinary people to the battlefield at any cost, even hundreds of thousands of Ming troops would be submerged, fortunately, the People's Army did not do this, just selected young people to join the People's Army.

But this practice of only selecting young and strong people also made Song Yingchang understand that the People's Army is different from other anti-thieves, and other anti-thieves are eager to use various methods to strengthen themselves, even if men, women, and children are integrated into the army and do their best to catch fish, but the People's Army is resuming production and life under the rule of Jean, and does not blindly expand its territory.

Song Yingchang did not believe that with the strength of the People's Army, he could not defeat Guangxi and Fujian, which had more Ming troops, and could not defeat Huguang or Jiangxi, which had fewer Ming troops.

The People's Army did not continue to expand its territory, but it was very arrogant to attack and harass the Ming army in the surrounding areas of Guangdong, which seemed to be to eliminate these Ming troops, but Song Yingchang could see that the People's Army's attack and harassment was just to let the Ming army stay there honestly, not to enter Guangdong, and affect the rule of the People's Army.

Often the thieves do not have any foundation, a defeat is lost, but the People's Army is building its own foundation, once the People's Army is given some time, so that the People's Army has a foundation, then the Ming Dynasty wants to exterminate the People's Army to recover Guangdong will become very difficult, the People's Army will also become the great enemy of the Ming Dynasty.

Time waits for no one, watching the strength of the People's Army continue to increase, Song Yingchang's heart becomes anxious.
