Seeing this, Zhu Youzhen was a little surprised. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 After thinking about it for a long time, Zhu Youzhen couldn't help but have some doubts about the situation of the guards he knew, and turned to Wang Chengen and asked, "Wang Chengen, how many soldiers does a guard officer have?" As far as I know, no more than 200 people, right? ”

Wang Chengen bowed down and said: "The emperor is wise, and the number of soldiers defending is indeed no more than two hundred. As far as the minions know, the towns are not the same in various places, if it is a military town on the nine sides, the defense is afraid that there are only one hundred and fifty regular soldiers! ”

Zhu Youzhen was stunned, and read the line of small characters carefully.

"Tian 0 Jin Fan Jiazhuang defends Li Zhi, and the thief and the old man return to Ma Shouying, and behead one thousand and sixty-five levels."

Chongzhen put the chapter on the imperial case, and sighed in surprise: "A guard officer, with less than two hundred troops, can actually behead thieves and handsome horses to guard the response, and behead more than 1,000 levels, what kind of brave general is this?" ”

Wang Chengen was stunned, walked over to the edge of the imperial case, and carefully read the letter. Half-ringing, Wang Chengen also took a breath and said slowly: "Emperor, this is indeed a brave general, with more than 100 soldiers to kill more than 1,000 thieves, and also cut horses and guards, more than a cadre of deputy generals and generals to behead the capital, this is a rare brave general!" ”

"It's the late commander-in-chief Cao Wenzhao, it's nothing more than that!"

Zhu Youzhen said: "The battle of slashing horses and guarding must have greatly boosted morale, and this son has made outstanding achievements in this battle." I didn't expect that after Cao Wenzhao, I would have such a good general in the Ming Dynasty. If all the generals of the Ming Dynasty are as brave as this Li Zhi, then what are the Dong slaves and thieves? Keri can be pacified! ”

Wang Chengen said: "It is the emperor's virtue that inspires the heavens, so there are such brave generals in the world!" ”

Zhu Youzhen said loudly: "This defensive officer Li Zhi has performed well, you have written clearly on the red, and I will reward Li Zhi with one hundred taels of platinum to show his courage in killing the enemy." ”

A month later, Li Zhi killed more than 1,000 enemies, and the news of the battle and the horse guarding the battle reached Tian0jin.

Tian 0 Jin Bing Beidao Cha Deng got the news and rushed to the yamen of the governor He Shishou to discuss the news with He Shishou.

"Lord Governor, I heard the news that Li Zhizhen of Fanjiazhuang beheaded the old man and returned to Ma Shouying, and captured more than 1,000 heads!"

He Shishou stroked his beard and smiled: "The old man already knows the news!" ”

Cha Dengbei said: "That old Hui Ma Shouying is also a famous thief, who has been crisscrossing the north and south for seven or eight years, and is the most fierce and good at fighting. I didn't expect it to be folded under the knife of a defensive officer in our Tian0jin! ”

He Shishou said lightly: "Li Zhi, this son, has some skills. ”

Cha Dengbei arched his hand and said: "Some time ago, I heard that the governor sent a defensive officer to help suppress it, and I was very worried, worried that I would be blamed by the military department for not doing well. Now it seems that Li Zhi's son is very brave, and his combat exploits are comparable to the deputy general of the general army! After a pause, Cha Deng Bei said: "Even Luo Zhending, the general of the Zhenhai Camp of Tian0jin, took the Zhenhai Camp to aid and suppress, and I am afraid that he will not be able to win so many heads." I heard that Li Zhi brought more than 1,000 Ding to fight, but I didn't expect that his more than 1,000 Ding combat strength could be comparable to 3,000 regular troops! This son is so good at fighting, and his future is limitless. ”

"And Li Zhi can get a thousand heads as a small defender, maybe he can actually kill more enemies!"

Cha Dengbei admired for a while, and then said: "It is rumored outside, and they all say that Li Zhi is a relative of an adult?" ”

When He Shishou heard this inquiry, he smiled and stroked his beard silently.

has such a "relative" as Li Zhi, which really gives He Shishou a long face. This Li Zhi not only has a set of business industries, but also is very brave in leading troops to fight. Last year, he brought more than 100 people to exterminate the bandits who had been accumulating years over the mountains, and this year he took more than 1,000 people out to behead the old and return to Ma Shouying. In the past, Li Zhi hoped that others would feel that he was a relative of He Shishou, but now, in turn, He Shishou also hopes that others will feel that Li Zhi is a relative of his family.

Seeing that the governor was smiling and silent, Cha Dengbei felt that most of the rumors were true. This Li Zhi is a relative of He Shishou, and he was picked up by He Shishou with one hand, which can be regarded as the descendant of He Shishou's lineage. This time he made a great contribution again, and he couldn't run away from a position of integrity when he came back, and He Shishou's people were very vigorous!

On this day, 0 Jin is about to become a word hall for He Shishou.

Chadenbei was unhappy in his heart, but his face did not show it at all.

Cha Dengbei said: "Lord Governor, I heard that Lu Xiangsheng wanted to leave Li Zhi in the army, but Li Zhi asked to bring his troops back to Tianjin. ”

Hearing this, He Shishou was even more proud.

Li Zhi was picked up by him, and he is He Shishou's descendant, and He Shishou certainly doesn't want Li Zhi to drive other governors and prime ministers for a long time. Li Zhi took the initiative to ask to return to Tian0jin, which proved that he was unwilling to be subdued by Lu Xiangsheng, his superior, but wanted to continue to work under He Shishou, which made He Shishou have a lot of face.

His promotion of Li Zhi was not in vain!

He Shishou said: "Li Zhi is an interesting young man. When he returns to Tian0jin, I will let him see you. ”

Chaden smiled and said, "Then I'll wait to meet him!" ”

After the news of the Battle of Ruzhou spread, it gradually fermented in various places, causing various reactions. But Lu Xiangsheng, who was temporarily staying in Ruzhou, did not know what was going on outside.

The day after the report was completed, Lu Xiang promoted the generals to Li Zhi's army to check Li Zhi's bird cannon.

Li Zhi's exploits this time were so strong that the generals of all walks of life were very surprised, and they naturally wanted to know how Li Zhi won. At that time, they couldn't see clearly how Li Zhi killed the thieves through the thieves on the battlefield, and they heard Li Zhi say that he relied on the method of bird guns and cannons to defeat the enemy, so they asked Li Zhi to demonstrate.

Li Zhi had long expected such a situation, and of course he had been prepared. As early as when he set off from Tian0jin, he prepared ten flintlock pistols without rifling and used them to fool these Ming officials.

As for the artillery, it doesn't matter if you show it directly to these officials.

Lu Xiangsheng and other officials stood on the school grounds, watching Li Zhi's soldiers demonstrate the bird cannons.

The ten flintlock pistols opened fire in unison under the operation of the soldiers of the Election Regiment, hitting the wooden target seventy meters away again and again, and the Ming officials nodded in unison.

"It is worthy of the soldiers and horses of Tian0jin, and they are really well-equipped! This bird gun doesn't use a firestring! ”

"Tian 0jin's bird gun actually made the soldiers shoot so confidently, not afraid of bombing and boring?"

Li Zhi saw that the generals were watching lively, so he followed the generals' words and said: "When the enemy rushes up, a thousand salvos can often crush the enemy's morale at one time!" It was with this firearm that I was able to defeat Lao Hui! ”

The generals suddenly realized, and they all said that it was no wonder that Li Zhi was able to defeat Lao Huihui.

After the bird shot the gun, Li Zhi asked the soldiers to hand over the flintlock pistol to Lu Xiangsheng for a closer look. Lu Xiangsheng looked at the flintlock gun again and again, and finally nodded and said: "Li Zhi, it's strange that you don't use a fire rope for this bird, is this method original to you?" ”

Li Zhi arched his hand and said: "This is a method that I came up with by chance!" ”

Lu Xiangsheng fiddled with the flintlock pistol and said lightly: "I see that the sergeants are very relieved when shooting, these bird guns are not at risk of being blown up and bored?" ”

Li Zhi replied: "Give the craftsmen enough money for materials, and give six taels of material money for this bird, and then give four taels of wages to the craftsmen." Once the bird gun is fried and bored, the craftsman will be strictly held responsible, so the bird gun made will not be fried and bored! ”

Hearing Li Zhi's words, the generals on the side were silent. These officers and their generals, big and small, have been thinking about how to extract silver from the craftsmen all day long, when have they ever thought of giving enough silver? Even give so much wages so that craftsmen can work with peace of mind? Li Zhi's bird gun cost ten taels, and they couldn't learn it, and they weren't ready to learn it.

Looting more silver, bribing all kinds of immortals with more silver, is a good strategy to get promoted and make a fortune. Even if he swept all directions like Li Zhi, didn't he want to share the first level with them in the end? Although they ate empty salaries and bribes, and raised weak soldiers and horses, they were the ones who were promoted and made rich in the end.

Give the money to the artisan? In that way, if you have less income and less money for the gods from all walks of life, you may be attacked by the gods from all walks of life if you make a small mistake, and finally lose your official position or even your life.

Da Ming is not without flintlock pistols. According to historical records, in the eighth year of Chongzhen, Bi Maokang, the right attendant of Nanjing's household department, made a self-made firebolt and replaced the arquebus with a flint bolt. But even if someone invents such an advanced weapon, no one will equip it on a large scale.

Lu Xiangsheng has been in the army for a long time, so he naturally knows all kinds of shortcomings of the Ming army, and he sighed when he looked at the flintlock pistol. Although this flintlock pistol slightly improved the bird gun and improved the combat effectiveness of the firearm class, the Ming army in the deep twilight still could not use such a weapon.

There is no other reason, just one: the generals of the Ming Dynasty think all day long about how to make money and how to honor key people, and they are not willing to spend money to improve the combat effectiveness of military horses. Even if a few generals are vigorous, in the end, they have to compromise with officials at all levels.
