Chapter 421: The Manchurian Version of 'Ying Longjun' (1)
"Newspaper"
"Regent, the wolf asks to see you!" A soldier with a white flag ran in.
The corners of Dolgon's eyes twitched slightly, and his expression was full of eagerness and surprise.
"Hurry up!"
Since the Battle of Xuzhou a few years ago, Dolgon felt the threat of the Ming Dynasty's firearms, in order to seek to offset the advantages of the Ming Yinglong Army from the root, so that the Qing Dynasty regained the upper hand over the Ming Dynasty in terms of strength, so he sent the most powerful spy organization under his command to secretly try to sneak into the Daming Firearms Bureau, wanting to get all the design drawings of the Daming Firearms.
Daming's flintlock pistol technology is not difficult, it can be imitated by picking up a few from the battlefield, but Daming's cannon is not easy, during the battle of Xuzhou, Daming was able to forge a super cannon with a range of five thousand meters, and the weight is not much heavier than the red-coated cannon of the Qing Dynasty, and later I heard that Daming forged another new cannon, the field Shenwu cannon, the total weight of this cannon is only more than 400 catties, after dismantling, it can follow the rapid march of the Yinglong army, and more importantly, the range and power of this cannon are not weaker than the red-coated cannon, The rate of fire is three times that of the redcoat cannon!
It was so shocking that Dorgon's face turned white with fright when he first found out about it. He knew very well what it meant for such a cannon to belong to the Ying Long Army, which meant that he wanted to fight the Qing Dynasty!
How could he watch this happen, the Sky Wolf, who had infiltrated the Great Ming Fire Weapons Bureau, urgently needed to get this cannon technology under his orders.
I think that Nurhachi died under the red-clothed cannon of the Ming Dynasty, which led to the defeat of the Manchu Qing Dynasty in the battle of Ningyuan of the Ming Dynasty, at that time the Manchu Qing Dynasty did not have red-coated cannons, it was precisely because of Nurhachi's death that the Manchus realized the importance of artillery, and in just a few years, they managed to get more than a dozen red-coated cannons, which were regarded as heavy weapons!
The red-coated cannon also lived up to expectations, showing its might in the next battle, making the Manchus almost invincible!
It was not until the capture of Beijing that Dolgon gathered the craftsmen of the Firearms Manufacturing Bureau of the former Ming Ministry of Industry, and he finally obtained all the technology of the red-coated cannon, allowing the Manchus to equip this cannon on a large scale.
Now, Da Ming has come up with a field cannon and other big killing weapons, which are even more shocking than when the red-coated cannon first appeared, and if you want to deal with it, only the Qing Dynasty also has this kind of cannon, so no matter what, Dorgon has to get it at all costs.
After years of layout, years and years of waiting, the Sky Wolf is finally back.
"Regent, the wolf has lived up to his trust, and has obtained back the full set of techniques for making field cannons and dedicated it to the regent!" The wolf presented a message to Dolgon, a dozen pieces of paper.
Dorgon took it and looked closely, his face darkening with ecstasy.
"Good, good! Hahahaha, God help me to clear the sky! Dolgon laughed wildly, with such a cannon, the Qing Dynasty would be able to conquer it again. Although he didn't know how to forge cannons, he could also see that this must be all the techniques of Daming field cannon forging.
On it, there is not only the refining method of high-strength alloy steel, but even the anti-recoil device!
Both are the core firearms technology of the Ming Dynasty, the highest secret, and are protected by the strictest, and it is unimaginable that the Manchurians can get it through a few years of layout, if Zhu Ci knows, how shocked!
"However, it is not enough to completely destroy the Ming Ying Dragon Army!" After Dolgon laughed for a while, his eyes narrowed slightly, and a cold light flashed, he had earlier begun to form a Qing version of the Ying Long Army, specifically to deal with the Ying Long Army of the Ming Dynasty, and now after a year of training, and the effect is remarkable, Dolgon has reason to believe that the next decisive battle, the Qing Dynasty will win!
"Regent, in addition to getting a full set of forging methods for field cannons this time, the minions also learned that the Daming Firearms Bureau has developed two more secret weapons, and the minions don't know what they are for the time being, but there is no doubt that the threat to the Qing Dynasty is great, even no less than the field artillery!" After the wolf waited for Dolgon to vent his emotions, he spoke of another important piece of information.
Actually, in this matter, the wolf is only sure that there is such a thing, and he really doesn't know what it is.
The new gunpowder and primer are different from the flintlock pistols and field cannons that Ying Longjun is now using, the latter is something that has been equipped with Yinglongjun for several years and has been mass-produced, there are many people who know it, and there are many craftsmen involved in production, so there are a lot of omissions, so that Tianluo can get a full set of technology after several years of layout. The former is different, it has just completed research and development, is preparing for large-scale production, and is still in the stage of absolute secrecy, and has not been fully exposed, most of the craftsmen of the Firearms Bureau do not know that there is such a thing, no matter how powerful the wolf is, it is impossible to break into the core of the Firearms Bureau in a few years and ten years.
"Huh?" Dolgon's expression sank, and the wolf's words immediately alerted him.
"This matter must be clarified, if the secret weapon newly developed by the Ming army is too harmful to the Qing Dynasty, it must steal a set of technology back, otherwise it will be destroyed by all means, in short, the Ming must not be allowed to show them before the next decisive battle!" Dorgon said.
"Wow!" The wolf took the order and withdrew.
Dolgon sent someone to send the method of forging field guns to the Beijing Ministry of Industry Manufacturing Bureau, and ordered the director of the Ministry of Industry to make a finished product within a month!
Then, Dolgon led dozens of soldiers with white flags to a valley thirty miles outside the city.
The Qing version of Ying Longjun is training here!
"Fourteenth brother, you're here!" As if he had known that Dorgon was coming, Azig waited at the gate of the camp first.
After dismounting his horse, Dorgon threw the reins in his hand to the soldiers beside him, and then walked with Azig to the camp.
"How's the Dragon Breaker training?" Dorgon asked as he walked.
"Fourteenth brother, please rest assured, the Dragon Breaking Army has me personally supervising the training, and all kinds of formations are skillful in operation, and you can go to destroy the Ying Dragon Army of Ming Dog at any time!" Azig patted his chest and laughed smugly.
The Broken Dragon Army is a Qing version of the Ying Dragon Army established by Dolgon in order to offset the Ming Ying Dragon Army, the number is not much, only 40,000 people, all of them are composed of Manchu people, of course, it is not the kind of Manchu elite in the Manchu Eight Banners, but it is composed of the old and young among the Manchus, between thirteen and fourteen years old, between forty-five and fifty-two years old, and even some Manchu women!
It is conceivable how Dolgon scraped together to get such a 40,000-strong dragon army!
