Alas! It's useless to worry about it, so let's do something down-to-earth!

On the seventh day when the imperial court learned that Zhang Chun's army of 40,000 or 50,000 had been annihilated in Changshan, Xu Ge Lao asked for an order to go to Kaiping to inspect the harvest of this year's new crop, maize.

He also had to verify the results of the popularization of potatoes and sweet potatoes, and to see the harvest of the 30,000 mu of rice fields opened up outside Kaiping Town, and by the way, he personally instructed to take some dry fields that could be transformed into paddy fields to increase the sown area of rice.

The imperial court faced a food crisis, which led to the repeated suppression of the Shanxi Liukou, and the reason for this was hunger.

Chongzhen didn't know the importance of food, so he agreed to Xu Guangqi's Kaiping inspection trip on the spot, and also said that he could promote some officials who were dedicated to farming, and could give them the main book of the nine grades and even the official status of the eight grades and eight grades.

In fact, Xu Guangqi's family and most of the disciples and officials are in Kaiping to guide agriculture, and he already knew that this year's sweet potatoes and potatoes have been harvested again, and he also knows that the yield of maize has reached more than two stones per mu, and the rice harvest per mu is close to two stones.

He chose to leave the temple in order to avoid disputes, there was no way, Xu Guangqi was sincerely retained by the emperor several times, and Da Ming Bo was treacherous and treacherous, and it would be hypocritical and irresponsible if he went to the book to tell the old again.

So, Xu Ge simply continued to do the agricultural research he liked.

Xu Guangqi came to Kaiping, and Huang Yizhou, who was far away from other civil officials and doctors, liked to communicate with him, and personally took him around to take a look, Xu Ge sometimes had to dig a piece of soil and bring it back to study, and Huang Yizhou even did it himself.

Huang Yizhou's military style, not good at words, likes to talk about things, Xu Guangqi also likes Huang Yizhou's straightforwardness, and is willing to chat with him.

Xu Guangqi has vision, he has never seen a garrison camp that will practice every day, nor has he seen a garrison camp that is full or even overstaffed, let alone a garrison camp that is stronger than the border army.

The jurisdiction of Huangyi Prefecture is orderly, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, Xu Guangqi is happy in his eyes.

The military appearance of the Luanzhou garrison camp fell into Xu Guangqi's eyes, he thought that Huang Yizhou was such a general, and he was not confused before he wasted his years! I secretly thought about protecting myself to the imperial court.

The old man went from house to house to see how the common people used the constant temperature of the cellar to store sweet potatoes and potatoes, and also watched the processing of vermicelli and vermicelli, as well as the brewing of high-grade liquor, the production of ceramics and cement.

Xu Guangqi lived in Kaiping for a few days, and every day he was accompanied by Huang Yizhou to play tai chi, and he was busy with his favorite things every day, and the gloom in his heart was swept away, and his body actually recovered a lot.

It's a pity that the good times didn't last long, and after living in Kaiping for less than a month, Xu Guangqi learned that something happened to Denglai, and hurriedly returned to Beijing.

The Wuqiao Mutiny was committed by Li Jiucheng and Kong Youde, and the people in the uprising were less than 1,000 Liaodong cavalry, and when it was expanded to two or three thousand in an instant, the combat effectiveness was not very good, because prisoners, green skins, and gangsters could only fight in groups, and they would be crushed in a dignified battle.

Professional counterpart is really important, Sun Yuanhua's talent is not reflected in being an official and playing politics, just like Li Yu, the queen of the Southern Tang Dynasty, is a great poet and a bastard faint gentleman.

If Sun Yuanhua continues to engage in scientific research and artillery manufacturing, he may be able to become a great scientist who has mastered the cross-era cannon casting technology in this era, but it is a pity that creation and transformation make people, and if a scientist is pushed onto the political stage, it will bring disaster to the country and the people.

In fact, Sun Yuanhua was not wronged at all because of Denglai's erosion, and he has an unshirkable responsibility in this disaster.

First of all, he was the initiator, that is, he advocated the Liao people to defend the Liao land, and accepted Dongjiang Town, such as Kong Youde, Geng Zhongming, Li Jiucheng and other generals to be reused.

The training that the Denglai Liao soldiers participated in was how to shoot the Hongyi cannon and use the Lumi gun, and they belonged to the most advanced firearms unit of this era, and there were dozens of Francophone instructors in this army.

When Sun Yuanhua heard that Kong Youde's rebellion had slaughtered Wuqiao, he was insensitive, and he was actually ready to appease the people who had killed thousands of innocent people and committed unspeakable atrocities.

Is there still justice and justice in this? In the eyes of the scholar Sun Yuanhua, the people of Wuqiao are really not as good as pigs and dogs! This may be the root cause of the Donglin Party's misunderstanding of the country, which is too far away from the masses and the common people.

Sun Yuanhua used the power of the governor of Denglai to prevent the Ming army from encircling and annihilating the rebels, and sent people to contact and appease them, and the rebels were not Kong Youde at all in charge at this time.

Li Jiucheng, who was full of poisons, put him in the air, and once the rebels started to rob, kill, and rape, they could not leave any of them, because these former soldiers tasted the happiness of losing the restraints of military discipline and became addicted to drugs and could no longer be cooked.

Li Jiucheng pretended to be appeased, burned, killed, looted and marched to Dengzhou, while Sun Yuanhua had no political wisdom and basically no commander's talent.

He didn't even know that he needed to go to war to prevent the appeasement from failing, and he didn't even do the work of guarding Dengzhou City, checking the Liao soldiers and factions in the city, and so on.

As a result, Dengzhou City, which had the most advanced and most artillery in the Ming Dynasty, was easily captured by the rebels, and the rebels suddenly had tens of thousands of people and a strong city with a harbor as a foothold.

In the end, it took more than a year for the Ming army to seize the city of Dengzhou, which was occupied by Kong Youde, with an absolute superiority of troops, and this was when the rebels ran out of food and ate almost the people of Dengzhou.

It can be seen that the level of Sun Yuanhua's army, who has the righteousness of the imperial court, is not far from the rebel army of Kong Youde?

This is enough to show that the feudal officials with the halo of the Donglin Party are all the masters who have killed the Ming Dynasty and made themselves extremely aggrieved, and how unfortunate it is to meet these pit goods Emperor Chongzhen.

The extremely anxious emperor was waiting for the news of Dalinghe City and Jinzhouwei when he got the bad news that Li Jiucheng and Kong Youde rebelled and caused chaos in Shandong, and he was even more angry.

Emperor Chongzhen has been very disappointed in the Donglin Party, and it seems that personnel adjustments must be made appropriately, otherwise it will be too late to regret which Donglin Party person!

Fortunately, three days after the bad news, that is, on November 6, the good news finally came, and Li Ruolian and Fang Zhenghua personally carried the heads of the seven or eight thousand Jin Army and dozens of captured battle flags back to Beijing to face the saints.

Three days later, the Shenshu Battalion and the Jinyi Guard, who had been diverted to Tianjin Wei to land, all returned, and the number of them was less than 30 percent, among them there were many wounded, and there were more than a dozen missing arms and legs, and all the horses they carried when they went were gone.

Fang Zhenghua and Li Ruolian believe that it is completely unnecessary to waste transportation capacity and increase transportation costs when horses are brought on board.

When they arrived in Tianjin, they could have asked the civil officials and military generals there to send men and horses and carts to escort them, and they would not be able to get a good horse to ride when they returned to Beijing? Therefore, hundreds of good horses were given to the "Red Banner Army".
