Although Liu Chang and Ye Niangzi have been waiting for Qu Zhenhan's news for a long time, now Liu Chang said to Yun Tianzong calmly: "Say it slowly, say it slowly, don't worry!" ”

The news from Yuntianzong was like timely rain, which made Ye Niangzi and Liu Chang make up their minds.

Originally, according to Qu Zhenhan's plan, he was preparing to conquer Dajing Town for the New Year, so he had to lead the brigade to the north on the 27th of the New Year, but when he arrived in the county seat, he couldn't order the group of peasants under his hands.

When they arrived in Yueqing County, they refused to leave, and they must talk about it after the New Year, Qu Zhenhan couldn't persuade them in a thousand words, so he could only promise to send troops on the fourth day of the first lunar month.

It's just that it has been delayed for a few days, but the Qing army in Dajing Camp has been prepared, and Qu Zhenhan's actual dispatch of troops has been delayed until the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, so there are still many people who refuse to go out, saying that it is the end of the New Year after the Lantern Festival.

The Dajing battalion has 660 soldiers, and after repeated urging these days, there are actually about 600 green battalion soldiers in the team, and 200 green battalion soldiers who escaped from the Yueqing Association base camp have been accommodated, plus 6 or 700 Tuyong recruited, and the strength is not much less than that of Qu Zhenhan.

It's just that Qu Zhenhan's department first broke through Yueqing County, and then broke the pool to make contributions to Yongjia, and Keshi to the Panshi Village.

The further north he attacked, the more difficult it became, and Qu Zhenhan's clan suffered several casualties, even if the tactics of the rattan spear were invincible, they had to pay a great price for victory.

And when he saw that he was about to encircle the Dajing camp, Taizhou sent a group of more than a few hundred Taiyong to the south, forcing Qu Zhenhan to concentrate his forces to solve this batch of reinforcements first.

In this time and space, the Taizhou people are quite good mercenaries in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, not only have the Taiyong system on land, but also have a considerable scale of the Shuiyong fleet at sea, and now the news is that Qu Zhenhan successfully solved this batch of Taiyong reinforcements, not to mention, but also completely crossed the defense of the periphery of Dajing Town.

"It is said that there are more than 1,000 Yong who have gone south, and none of them have escaped back, in addition, now the Qing Demon can only trap the main formation of the Dajing camp, and he does not dare to move a step, and now Qu Shuai is mobilizing cannons from the rear to go up, if there are no accidents, it is only a matter of time before the Dajing camp is broken."

Breaking through the Dajing camp means that the entire Jiangbei has fallen into the hands of the Red Turban Army, so Liu Chang is glad that his transaction with De Mengs is very timely, and the time to place the order is just right: "By the way, Tianzong, are you familiar with the Yang Shanjia in Jiangnan?" ”

Yun Tianzong also knows Yang Shanren's name: "I know, our Wenzhou Mansion is the leading indecent species, what does it lack of virtue and does, and it does a lot of things to force good people to become prostitutes, and secretly sells big tobacco soil, let's open Yang Mansion?" ”

Since everyone says that this Yang good man does all kinds of evil, then this Yang house should be opened: "Don't worry, I bought seventy foreign guns, and it will take a day or two to use them first!" ”

Sixty-five foreign guns were divided into three platoons by Liu Chang, and fifteen of the best firing guns and fifteen flintlock pistols were arranged into the first row of dragon gun sentinels, which was an infantry platoon with all foreign guns, which could be called the elite of the whole army.

The remaining thirty-five flintlock muskets were divided into two parts, the fifteen flintlock muskets were equipped with half of the second platoon of the dragon lance sentry, the under-equipped part was still armed with the dragon lance, as the guard of the flintlock musketeers, and the third row was also still dragon gun.

There were also twenty flintlock muskets equipped with the first platoon of the Nanxi outpost, and the under-armed parts were also equipped with dragon guns and other cold weapons as guards for the flintlock musketeers.

In the past, the structure was one sentry directly under the jurisdiction of 10 sheds, but now a new infantry platoon has been set up, with one sentry under the jurisdiction of three platoons, and each platoon has three sheds.

After the test firing, everyone for the new purchase of flintlock pistols and guns, that is full of praise, it is indeed a good thing, it turns out that Huo Qiu also wants to take those eight flags shotgun as an heirloom, after using the flintlock pistol, he praised: "In the past, we sat in the well and watched the sky, it was really sitting in the well and watching the sky, this foreigner's firearm is really powerful!" This is still a second-class flintlock pistol, and I don't know how a better flintlock pistol and a Minnie gun are! ”

After a day of training, the troops saw the advantages of flintlock pistols and firing pistols more obviously, not only in range, rate of fire or power, in all aspects, these foreign guns were far superior to the Qing Dynasty's most powerful Eight Banners shotguns, if there were two hundred firing guns, they could go sideways in Zhejiang.

And what makes the dragon lance whistle even more surprising is the existence of bayonets, in the past, the arquebus could not be equipped with a bayonet, once the enemy was close to it, it was a burning stick, but now the gun body is equipped with a bayonet, although it is not as sharp as the dragon lance, but it is also a snowy spear, and the single hand-to-hand combat will definitely not be weak.

Nanxi Whistle also felt the same way, what they regret now is that the number of foreign guns in this batch is too small, Huo Qiu has already come to Liu Chang to take the initiative to ask for battle: "Check, when will you go to open Yang's house?" I can't wait, as long as I open the Yang Mansion, I can get at least a few thousand taels of silver, as long as we have this number again......"

He stretched out a palm to indicate fifty foreign guns, and lowered his voice again: "You can do it yourself!" ”

Liu Chang shook his head and stretched out a finger: "You have to have this number." ”

"You're a schemer!" Huo Qiu didn't have a sense of belonging to Qu Zhenhan: "But let's score half of Nanxi Whistle." ”

He estimated that if there were another fifty flintlock guns, then Nanxi Sentinel would have seventy foreign guns, which could almost complete the transformation of foreign guns: "On the side of the dragon lance sentry, I will also go and beat the side drum first." ”

The situation of the dragon lance whistle is more complicated, they and Qu Zhenhan are fellow villagers or even the same clan, and the relationship in history is very deep, although Liu Chang has beaten the side drum a few times, but if you want to go it alone, if you want to split the family peacefully, if Qu Zhenhan wants to use force, the dragon lance whistle may not be able to pull it all out.

Liu Chang said that he was not in a hurry: "This is not in a hurry in advance, let's practice the foreign gun first and open the Yang house." ”

The training of flintlock pistols and firing pistols lasted three days, firing nearly 1,000 rounds of ammunition in one go, and even more than 200 rounds of non-renewable fire caps.

During this period, the newly purchased granular gunpowder was also used on the shotgun for test firing, and the results were also exciting, and the effective range of the shotgun was increased by about ten meters, so Liu Chang urged the green battalion soldier Xian Na who gave the granular gunpowder to hurry up to get the granular gunpowder, and now whether it is charcoal, sulfur or saltpeter, it is the existing high-grade product.

The training was practiced until sunset, Liu Chang returned to Panshi Village with the main force of Nanxi Whistle, and the group talked and laughed, but they approached Panshi Village, Huo Qiu's eyes were sharp, and he said: "Check, someone is kneeling!" ”

In front of the gate of Panshi Village, there was a young man kneeling in front of the gate of the village, and he didn't know what was wronged, Liu Chang couldn't help but be surprised.

Although he has mastered the vicinity of Panshi Town, and Panshi Village has also changed its yellow flag, the orthodoxy of ordinary villagers is still the Qing Dynasty, and it will take a long time to change this.

Why did this person come to Panshi Village to report the complaint, even if he wanted to report, he shouldn't have looked for him Liu Chang?

Yun Tianzong, a clever man, had already run up to inquire about the situation: "Brother, what's the matter?" A man has gold under his knees, so why should he be so wronged. ”

"I'm asking to see Liu Checkpoint below!" The man turned around and knelt down again: "The villain has a deep hatred like fire, begging for mercy." ”

It's just that as soon as he showed his head, there was already a sharp-eyed person next to him who shouted: "Be careful, this is Shi Yunqing." ”

Who is Shi Yunqing? Liu Chang didn't react, but the officers and soldiers of the Nanxi post had already pounced on him to restrain him, and someone told Liu Chang: "This is Shi Degong's son!" ”

Liu Chang remembered that Shi Degong was the Qing army commander who guarded Panshi Village.
