Chapter 62: The Red Cannon

On the banquet, the young man, oh, that is, Master Hao Jianhao, was attentive to the "Lord Qincha", all kinds of enthusiasm, Hai Dongqing also used his leaky mouth to frequently persuade him to drink, which made the Tartar messenger quickly excited, and said everything that should be said and what should not be said.

"I tell you, you're all a piece of ass when you're a horse thief, have you ever seen a real battle? Ever seen it? If you see it once, it is guaranteed to make you pee your pants in fright, that formation, it is really a crowd of people, a river of blood, timid people see this formation, peeing their pants is nothing, some are directly scared to death on the spot, scared crazy. Let me tell you, I think when I went to Mongolia with Master Tong......"

The Tartar messenger was drunk, and he began to brag about how knowledgeable and brave he was in front of a group of "horse thieves" who had never seen the world, but he completely forgot that he was so frightened that he peed his pants when he first saw the killing, let alone go to battle.

Hao Jian's face was still full of spring breeze, and he didn't show his feeling of being nauseous and vomiting on his face at all.

"The adult is worthy of being the confidant celebrity in front of Lord Tong, Lord Tong is a famous general of the Qing Dynasty, and your famous general's henchman is also brave and unparalleled, where are we in the green forest compared to the adult, and the adult will be a model for us in the future, and I will rely on the adults to say a lot of good words and carry a lot." Hao Jian diligently poured the empty cup in front of the Tartar messenger with wine, and said with a smile and flattery.

"Hahaha, interesting, you kid is interesting. What's your name? When I look back, I will have a lot of kind words and a lot of support for you. The Tartar messenger pointed at Hao Jian and laughed, with a smug face.

"My lord, this is the bald wolf of our second master, and he is my most powerful brother, you will take care of it in the future." Hai Dongqing wasted no time in the road.

That's what Hao Jian told him. Although Hao Jian felt a little embarrassed to use a vulture wolf, he had to endure it for the sake of a big event, after all, he was afraid that this Tartar would be suspicious after hearing the name of the vulture.

"Vultures? Why did such a white and innocent boy call such a nickname, it was really vulgar. What the hell are a bunch of idiots, hahahaha......" After hearing this, the Tartar messenger took the opportunity to show off his superiority and laughed loudly.

"What the adults said is, where are we rough people so elegant compared to adults, come on, my lord, have another drink!" Hao Jian raised his glass, although he really wanted to chop up the grandson in front of him on the spot and feed it to the dog, but his face was still bright and convincing.

The Tartar envoy touched a cup with Hao Jian reservedly and drank it all, pointed at Hao Jian with his head held high and laughed at Hai Dongqing: "Hai Dongqing, you are really good, not bad, and have a future." ”

"It is his honor that the adults appreciate us so much, and they will rely on the care of the adults in the future. I have been injured during this time, and everything in this village is handled by the second master, and if there is a place where the adult needs to serve, he can directly order the second master, and the words of the second master are my words. Hai Dongqing hissed.

"Okay, Lord Ben is also very optimistic about this kid, I don't think I can work for Lord Tong if you are like this now. I'm here this time to convey Lord Tong's order, since that's the case, then Lord Ben will hand over this matter to the second master, how about it? The Tartar messenger suddenly said with a serious face.

"It's all up to your lordship, and you will do your best!" Hao Jian and the two hurriedly "respectfully" obeyed the order.

"Then you listen, this time our Eight Banners army is going to attack Datong City, and our Lord Tong is responsible for the most important grain and grass escort matters, so this time Lord Tong thought of you and wanted to give you a chance to enter, and three days later, I took the men and horses to the wild boar slope to stand by, but I understand?"

"Dare to ask my lord, do you really want to fight Datong City this time? That Datong City is a city with high walls and thick walls, and there are tens of thousands of Ming troops, but it's not easy to fight? Hao Jian deliberately pretended to be a little white and asked.

"Stupid, just said you were clever and started to be stupid. What our Eight Banners army is good at is to fight the world immediately, don't you look at these people, these Ming dogs don't even dare to go out of the city when they see our Eight Banners warriors, they only dare to hide in the city as turtle grandchildren. But if you think that our Eight Banners warriors are only good at field battles and not good at attacking cities, then you are very wrong.

I heard Lord Tong say that our Qing Dynasty got a group of craftsmen who can make red-coated cannons from the Ming Kingdom, and the emperor has been letting these people imitate red-coated cannons in recent years, just waiting for the day when they can also use red-coated cannons to attack the cities and towns of the Ming Kingdom, no longer need to use the lives of the Eight Banners warriors to fill it, and let the Ming Kingdom know that the Eight Banners Army is not only good at field warfare, but also good at siege. I estimate that if I want to attack Datong this time, it should be this red-clothed cannon that has come out, and the emperor wants to try this unsightly Datong City. Redcoat Cannon, you know? I'm sure you idiots haven't seen it before. Hahaha......"

After the Tartar messenger finished talking, he didn't forget to mock Hao Jian, a group of uninformed "horse thieves".

Hao Jian had a humble smile on his face, but he was chuckling in his heart.

He naturally knew the red-coated cannon, and he also knew that in the original history, the Ming Dynasty firearms had been very popular, and all kinds of birds and artillery were due to end, and there were many types.

Among them, the most famous is the red-coated cannon, which can be said to be a divine weapon for attacking the city in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, and it can be called the important weapon of the country.

Originally, there were no red-coated cannons in the Tartars, and every time they fought with the Ming army in Liaodong, they would be beaten by the Ming army's cannons and cry for their mothers, and even the slave chief Nurhachi was injured and killed by the red-coated cannons.

This is also an important reason why although the Tartars are powerful in the field, they have not won many important cities in the Ming Dynasty.

But later, Kong Youde, the general soldier of the Ming Dynasty, surrendered to Manchuria after the Dengzhou Rebellion, and therefore brought a lot of red-coated cannons, so this also made the Tartars begin to have siege weapons such as red-coated cannons.

Later, the Tartars sent people to copy them continuously, so the number of red-coated cannons increased, which also became one of the main reasons for the significant improvement of the siege ability of the Tartars in the later period.

I didn't expect that there were red-coated cannons in this time and space, and it seems that the background of this era is still very similar to the late Ming and early Qing dynasties.

Thinking of these couldn't help but make Hao Jian's heart solemn.

No one knows better than him, who is accustomed to hearing all kinds of artillery, missiles, and even nuclear weapons in modern society, and the god of war is not called in vain.

His worries are not only for the survival of Datong City this time, but also for his future life and death.

Because in his understanding, the fortress system is a real cold weapon war system, and there is no shadow of firearms at all, how can Lao Tzu live?
