As for the weight, the caliber of the 6-pound Napoleon gun is 93mm, the barrel is 1.52 meters long, and the gun carriage weighs 389 kilograms, of which the heaviest barrel is about half of the full weight, less than 200 kilograms, or 400 kilograms.

With advanced weaponry, relatively well-trained soldiers, and an incomparable desire to reclaim their land, when they appeared at the bottom of the mountain, one can imagine how surprised the natives who thought they had sealed their guest status on the mountain and waited for them to starve to death one by one.

After seeing the cottages destroyed by artillery fire, the brave guests rushed up frantically, using muskets, broadswords, spears and even bamboo guns to attack the natives who had been dizzy by artillery fire, and the cottages were uprooted, and the mountain passes were opened one by one, and the natives could not trap them.

But at this time, they had a disagreement, Hakka Lian Yong wanted to kill their homeland and regain their land in one go, and the black dog asked them to immediately send troops to Guangzhou to help Zhu Jinglun defeat Qi Ling, the two sides quarreled and almost moved the knife.

Chen Quzhi has attracted hundreds of small squires here, not limited to the Chen family in Shajing, not even limited to the Shajing area, including Jiulong, Longgang and other places, he has traveled all over, but in the end only 10,000 people are willing to go to Guangzhou with him, these 10,000 people are those clans whose children serve in Zhu Jinglun's army, of which the Hakka people account for half.

What made Chen Quzhi angry was that he thought that the clans in the Kowloon area would respond to every call, but like the clans in other places, most of them remained silent, and Zhu Jinglun helped them protect their families and land many times, but now they have abandoned Zhu Jinglun, which is simply treacherous.

Ten days later, when Chen Quzhi tiredly took tens of thousands of people and rushed to Guangzhou on the merchant ship collected in Xin'an, Zhu Jinglun held a grand welcome ceremony for them.

Tens of thousands of people entered the city, so that Zhu Jinglun's troops reached 20,000, and the pressure to defend Guangzhou City was suddenly reduced a lot.

That's what Zhu Jinglun did, assigning them some officers in the fastest time, organizing them for simple training, and then stationing them in Xicheng, responsible for keeping an eye on the full camp in the southwest of Guangzhou. Unlike Xi'an, Beiping and Nanjing, which were garrisoned by the Eight Banners, Guangzhou did not have a city in the strict sense of the word, because there were no walls built outside the garrison of the Eight Banners.

Therefore, unlike the flag people in other regions who are isolated from the local people, as for why Guangzhou is not full of cities, it is said that it is because a fire burned down the city in the early years, and Guangzhou is a city far from the ruling center after all, with an important economic status, and relatively little influence on the central dynasty politically and militarily, so there is no need to spend money and food to build city walls.

Another reason is that there are temples such as Guangxiao Temple and Huaisheng Temple in the Eight Banners Station, which cannot completely block the people from entering the incense, so they cannot be closed. Therefore, the most that the full camp could do was to set up barricades and sentry posts to block direct contact between the banner man and the people, but these things could not be blocked at all.

Therefore, the flag people and the people of Guangzhou have been in contact with each other for a long time, and they have influenced each other, and the customs and habits of the flag people have long been assimilated by the local people.

The Qing Dynasty probably also intended to let the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty in the banner people integrate with the locals, and during the Qianlong period, the Han Army began to implement the flag policy, and a large number of new Han Army Banner Dingkou were forced to move out of the Eight Banners organization and could only integrate into the local society, which led to the fact that these banner people were relatives everywhere in the city of Guangzhou.

Because of this series of reasons, after the Xinhai Revolution, the Han Eight Banners in Guangzhou directly defected to the revolutionary army and were incorporated into the new government army, while the Han Army Naval Division of the Eight Banners of Qinjiang in Fujian, which was relatively tightly isolated, took the initiative to be classified into the Manchus, which was partly because the Han soldiers in Guangzhou were more inclined to Han Chinese in terms of identity.

Among the Eight Banners stationed in Guangzhou, the vast majority of them were Han military flags, so Zhu Jinglun always felt that this was a force that had to be co-opted, and if there was a Eight Banners unit, they would all be able to join Zhu Jinglun's army, which was very politically meaningful and a huge blow to the psychology of the old ruling class.

But it's too early to win them over.

Zhu Jinglun saw that even Xin'an, the base he first operated, only had 10,000 people to support him, and most of the squire clans were out of wait-and-see, not to mention that these Eight Banners, even if they were Han troops, it was absolutely impossible to win them over.

What I am afraid of is that during the occupation of Guangzhou by foreigners, the squires generally stood on the side of the Qing government and organized regimental training to confront the foreigners.

Even if he relied on military force and finally forcibly obtained Guangdong, not to mention the kind of social and economic damage, it was just an opportunity cost of time, he didn't want to pay, because a year later, his reform would be launched a year later, and the effect was huge, if the pacification of the battle of Guangdong allowed him to fight for ten years, the Japanese began to reform the Meiji Restoration, and then he was innovating, he would be in an unfavorable situation, if he could carry out the reform a few years before Japan, Zhu Jinglun was confident that he would always trample the Japanese under his feet, East Asia, There is room for only one hegemon.

Therefore, he is not afraid of the squires waiting and seeing, because waiting and watching means that they have begun to consider Zhu Jinglun, rather than blindly rejecting it, which means that as long as Zhu Jinglun can show enough power, they are willing to pour their loyalty from the side of the Qing Dynasty to Zhu Jinglun's side.

Therefore, what Zhu Jinglun wants is to make a breakthrough as soon as possible and let everyone see his future, instead of a stalemate with the elderly here in Guangzhou.

After the arrival of 10,000 reinforcements from Xin'an, Zhu Jinglun immediately ordered the staff officer to formulate a battle plan, this time he planned to take the accustomed Eight Banners Green Battalion and Tuyong's miscellaneous army to defeat it in one fell swoop, but Zhu Jinglun had a concern, this time he didn't dare to guarantee that Zhang Qianshan would still wait and see, there was no news from Fang Shan, and even Zhu Jinglun didn't know whether he was alive or dead.

At this time, the black dog also came back, and he conveyed a Hakka request to Zhu Jinglun, Li Yanan and other squires said that when they were dying in the third year of high school, they told them that they would give their sister to Zhu Jinglun as a concubine. (To be continued.) )
