So far, there are only more than 2,400 people from more than 400 households who are willing to be gathered and rushed to Tianjin Wei to go to sea by boat, of which less than 800 are Dingkou.

There are more than so many displaced people that can be encountered along the way, and there should be more than ten times.

However, when the original crowds of homeless people heard the sound of horses' hooves from afar, they scurried around like frightened rabbits, and in order not to exacerbate the fear of these poor people, the "Red Banner Army" did not chase after them at all.

It is no wonder that these ordinary people fled in a hurry when they saw the Ming army as if they saw the Liukou bandits, because some of the Ming troops were actually three points worse than the Liukou, they not only robbed gold and silver treasures, clothes, food, and raped women, but also deliberately slaughtered the common people to kill the good and the good.

As long as they have food and money, they basically do not deliberately kill the homeless people who do not resist, but coerce them into thieves.

In the eyes of the officials and soldiers, not only food, wealth, and women are harvests, but also the heads of the homeless people, which is not an isolated phenomenon, and many generals are very rotten, and these soldiers and ruffians can't beat the rogues who specifically pick up the homeless people.

Therefore, when the homeless people saw the officers and soldiers and heard the sound of horses' hooves, they were like frightened birds.

Later, some homeless people who were slow on their legs or too hungry to run, chose to resign themselves to their fate and not run.

The conjecture of being beheaded by the Ming army did not happen, and those fierce Ming cavalry seemed to be on a mission, and did not leave the official road to chase and kill anyone at all.

When the common people saw this different team, they could realize that the "Red Flag Army" seemed to have no malicious intent, and they became bold enough to no longer run in all directions, and chose to camp not far from the army.

The homeless people also have the experience of wandering, and the rogues who are close to the army are basically reluctant to take the initiative to approach, and they are relatively safe, which is actually just a fox and a fake tiger.

When camping at night, Liu Zaiqi led the propaganda team out of the camp to build a big shed and boiled fragrant porridge.

The spring is full of hope for the recovery of all things, but it is extremely difficult for the poorest people.

The fragrance of porridge wafted with the spring breeze, and the hungry homeless people smelled one by one and became even more hungry and thirsty.

Finally, there was a boy named Luo Mingshi in his early thirties, looking at the five-year-old girl in his arms, he couldn't help swallowing saliva, looking at the expectation in the eyes of a large family of eleven people, and decided to exchange an ancestral jade pendant for a full meal.

Ignoring his own lady's stubborn tugging at his shirt and refusing him to take the risk of provoking the army, he resolutely marched in the direction where the porridge fragrance wafted from.

The sky has darkened, and more than a dozen porridge pots with a diameter of more than three feet are tumbling white-flowered rice, and dozens of horse lamps illuminate this place as bright as day.

The horse lantern is a new thing in the mass production of equipment troops last year, and as the name suggests, it can be hung on the horse for lighting when riding at night.

This hand-held, weatherproof lamp fueled by fierce fire oil is not complicated to manufacture, with a fully enclosed and non-dripping brass oil dish at the lower end, two tinned iron covers with layered voids at the upper end to facilitate air intake and exit, and a glass cover in the middle.

With this kind of large-scale killing lighting, the night march in the future will save the trouble of changing torches continuously, and it will also be able to free up one hand holding the torch, because the horse lantern can be hung, and the brass oil dish filled with fierce fire oil can be lit for five hours.

The production of large quantities of brass was of course due to the import of large quantities of copper ingots from the Ming Dynasty, which was a century behind the Ming Dynasty, and the copper ingots were impure and contained a large number of impurities, and even silver and gold.

The refinery where the copper ingots were transported to the green mud valley was once again able to meet the quality requirements after high-temperature refining.

Last spring, more than a dozen Western table clocks of various sizes were recovered from the captured East India Company warships, the Udwater and Venlo, and the master craftsman Peng Jiawang obtained these good things as if they were treasures.

Through the relationship between Fang Zhenghua and Wang Chengen, Huang Han recruited ten skilled craftsmen and master craftsmen led by Chen Keda, Li Guihe, and Gui Youguang from the Military War Bureau and the Silver Bureau under the 24th Yamen of the Ming Dynasty.

In the year of the Apocalypse, because the emperor liked to do handicrafts and liked novelties, Wei Zhongxian found many skilled craftsmen to serve the royal family, but in the year of Chongzhen, with the fall of Wei Zhongxian, the atmosphere in the imperial city completely changed.

In addition, the national strength of the Ming Dynasty is deteriorating, and Chongzhen is more diligent and thrifty, so it is no wonder that his name is Zhu Youzhen, who is really a more self-disciplined emperor. As a result, the incomparable skill of manual work is no longer valued.

Huang Han locked up ten skilled masters such as Chen Keda, Li Guihe, and Gui Youguang through Qiwei's secret visit, and asked Fang Zhenghua and Wang Chengen to help him get it without much effort.

The ten master craftsmen who left Beijing and crossed the sea to the Jinzhou Peninsula were all inexplicably sad and indignant, they had superb craftsmanship, even if their lives were not as good as the scenery of the Apocalypse, they could not cross the sea and take a large family to southern Liaoning to seek a living.

However, the master craftsmen are also craftsmen, and it is not up to them where the court assigns.

Seeing these ashen craftsmen, Huang Han didn't explain much, and arranged for Peng Jiawang to take the lead in being the person in charge of imitating Western table clocks, and sent a team of 30 new graduates led by Pan Gui, Qin Jiaji, etc., and ten master craftsmen.

Huang Han took the time to give three classes to the 41-person watch R&D team, explaining his understanding and knowledge of clocks and the principles of clock operation.

The ten master craftsmen had already learned about the treatment of the craftsmen in the "Red Banner Army" system through the mouth of Peng Jiawang, the person in charge, and after seeing what General Pingliao was going to make for them, they all came to their senses.

Soon the Ming independent research and development of the table clock formed a product, because the mainspring is carefully manufactured with high-quality spring steel, the main internal components are high-quality brass, the quality of the clock half a street.

During this time, the team is engaged in technical PR, and it is believed that pocket watches should be able to be produced in the near future.

Ten master craftsmen lived in a small building with a yard, and were respected, and their monthly remuneration plus technological innovation rewards was not less than five taels of silver, and they all burst out with enthusiasm for work, and even took the initiative to send their children to study in new schools and strive to become regular soldiers of the "Red Banner Army".

The porridge outside the camp of the "Red Banner Army" is fragrant and attractive, and the dozens of horse lanterns used for lighting look like stars in the night sky from a distance, and the heat rising from the porridge pot is like a cloud and mountain fog cover, which makes Luo Mingshi feel that the front is like a dream, as if he has arrived in a fairyland.

When he approached the porridge boiling place, he didn't go directly to ask for a deal, fearing that the Ming army with corrupt discipline would not only rob his family of the only remaining valuable things, but also cut off his head to count it as a rogue who took the lead in the army.
