Guilin Mansion, the city of Fu, where Kong Youde lived.

Kong Youde's family was eating and drinking next to them, very happy, they didn't know the depression and sorrow in Kong Youde's heart at this moment.

This time he lost the battle, the court reprimanded, but fortunately his own army did not suffer much losses, otherwise his head would have fallen to the ground, this time the court cut off his title of king of Pingnan, from the general army will be the deputy general, still leading his own army, but the armies of other people under his jurisdiction have been divided and given to the Ma Degong Department.

The more than 50,000 troops that had just been recruited with money went to more than 30,000 at once, and many of the old soldiers who followed him were also swept away, and many of them were assigned to the troops led by Hong Chengchou, and there were only more than 20,000 people left on his side, and more than 10,000 people were all newly recruited rogues, strong men, and people, which made him very distressed.

Such a few people, if you want to attack the Huaxia Army, then don't even think about it, you don't have to think about avenging Geng Jingzhong and Shang Kexi, these old brothers, it is difficult to protect yourself, but the imperial court ordered him to quell the rebellion in Guangxi Mansion, which is also a bit beyond his strength, Feng Shuangli is still there, the army is not less than him, and they are all the elites of Daxi's former hundred battles, they have fought several times, Kong Youde knows that with his little person, it would be good to be able to hold Guilin Mansion.

Fortunately, Sun Kewang attacked Yunnan Mansion, and Li Dingguo returned thousands of miles to take care of his lair.

Otherwise, he would have to flee.

"Master, where are you going today?" The housekeeper of the Confucian Mansion asked.

"Let's go to the barracks, go and have a look, and then recruit some people, let the Erlang below cheer up, and give me those newcomers to practice hard, so that they can have a little effect when they go to the battlefield, and they don't have to see the enemy drop their guns and run around, and then I will be defeated."

"Have you figured out the movements of the Huaxia Army?" Kong Youde stepped on the war horse, and a horseman led the war horse to walk slowly.

His henchman will continue: "The Huaxia army has captured Guangzhou Mansion, and Ma Degong has retreated to Wuzhou Mansion. ”

"This old fox runs so fast every time, I don't see him take out his old book and fight hard that time, cooperate with him in the future, and have more eyes."

Kong Youde said as he walked.

"Yes, sir,"

"Master, the Huaxia Army doesn't seem to want to fight in Guangxi and Guangdong, but just recovered the territory of Longwu and Nanming, and then stopped, I heard that what construction is being done, and all the soldiers and people we were arrested were sent to build roads, dig rivers, build ships, and fill in the silt swamps, just like what they did in Zhejiang."

Kong Youde sighed and said: "Alas, this Huaxia army is getting stronger and stronger, and now even the border places may not be able to hear about them, 600,000 troops, the Qing army that once shook the world, is now driven around like a lost dog, and it is not enough to lose the armor, now as long as we hear the name of the Huaxia army, our army is just like the Ming army saw the cavalry of the Qing army before, and lose courage before fighting, how to fight with them again in the future, how to win." ”

The henchman said: "My lord, in fact, there is no need to be so decadent, the Huaxia Army is also a human, but it is just a matter of relying on the speed of the gun and the sharpness of the artillery, I think about it these days, I feel that our cannon is heavy and the range and power are not as good as the cannon of the Huaxia Army, if you can replace it with the cannon of the Huaxia Army, or buy a more powerful sample gun and foreign cannon from the foreigners, are you afraid that you will not be able to beat the Huaxia Army in the future?" ”

"That's right." Kong Youde also thought so, in his mind, the Huaxia army took advantage of it this time, it was nothing more than relying on the strong city to drag down its own troops, and then suddenly ran out to sneak attack, if it could be replaced with a more powerful gun and foreign artillery than the Huaxia army, he would definitely be able to withstand the attack of the Huaxia army, and then wait for Hong Chengchou's large army to go up to attack the flank and back of the Huaxia army.

"My lord," the henchman said: "I heard that Lord Hong has thought hard this time, and wants to set up a new army, specializing in learning the tactics and tactics of the Huaxia Army, with imitation of the captured Huaxia Army's guns, and after the new army is successfully trained, our status will definitely drop a lot, and at that time, you and our Han army will be dismantled or marginalized by the imperial court, which is not good for us." ”

Shaking the horsewhip in his hand fiercely, Kong Youde gritted his teeth and said: "If you want to say that you are proficient in firearms and firearms tactics, you have to be my old Kong, they want to replace me, it's impossible." ”

The henchman wiped his eyes, and saw that he just wanted to vent, but he seemed to be very helpless, and said carefully: "My lord, why don't we also imitate the artillery and muskets of the Huaxia Army, although we were defeated this time, we also captured a lot of muskets and artillery from the enemy."

From the humble point of view, we can also imitate these muskets and artillery, which are much better than ours, and even if the muskets and artillery that cannot be imitated into the Huaxia Army are much advanced, they can also shorten the gap with the Huaxia Army.

With the Huaxia Army as a province, after all, there are not many troops to recruit, but our troops can be found from other places, and with more troops, we will definitely be able to defeat them. ”

Kong Youde's face was happy, "Okay, since Hong Lao Thief is doing it, let's do it too, let's go, go to the camp, let's train those new Ding into soldiers as powerful as the Huaxia Army, arrange some of our henchmen to lead the army, and you recruit more such young people, we must restore our original structure, there are fewer soldiers, those big guys in the court, maybe I will be a general tomorrow, and I will be the general the day after tomorrow, these carnivorous parasites, Lao Tzu will fight to death in front, and they will make Lao Tzu lose his official position and lose his post in a few words, If this is the case again, Lao Tzu will not serve anymore and go to the Ming army. ”

The henchmen were stunned, looked left and right, and the people around him were the henchmen of the two people, and then whispered to Kong Youde with confidence: "Master, be cautious, the wall has ears." ”

Then he said: "Master, why don't you vote for the Huaxia Army, you see the current momentum of the Huaxia Army, it is not like the momentum of the Qing Army back then, it is very strong, I think it is very promising." ”

Kong Youde looked at his henchmen and said with a smile: "Is there a place for us in the Huaxia Army?" Look at the people who voted for the Huaxia Army, except for one He Jin, are there any others in high positions? People are just like us, veterans, henchmen of the old battalion can get ahead, and the others don't have any good positions, but the civil officials went to each of them in a high position, Jin Sheng, tsk, although it is still a secretary of the ministry, but people have entered the cabinet, and in the Ming Dynasty, that is the old man. But our generals, there are many people, and there is no shortage. ”

While the two men discussed things, they entered the camp.

When they came to the school field, the henchmen would ask people to put the captured muskets and artillery of the Huaxia Army on the table.

Kong Youde picked up a Jinkai 1 musket, weighed it, observed it carefully, and then said to his henchman: "Where is the Huaxia Army still have some skilled craftsmen, you see, although this musket is not as good as the musket of the Ming Army and the Qing Army, it is engraved with some patterns and decorated with some small ornaments, but it is very real to grasp it in your hand, this is a murderous thing, why do you want so many bells and whistles?" ”

The henchman also picked up a Jingai-1 arquebus, looked at the arquebus in Kong Youde's hand, and said: "Master, have you seen it, the two guns are exactly the same, the workmanship is quite fine, and it is two or three catties lighter than our best musket. The work is consistent, it can reduce the consumption of bullets and gunpowder, and it can also allow the learned soldiers to master the gun as soon as possible. ”

"That's a good thing." Kong Youde couldn't put down the arquebus with the Jingai 1 arquebus, and let out a sigh.
