"Under the king's birth. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info" A tall and handsome middle-aged man greeted Li Pingzhi and Zhang Xuwen, and the smile on his face was very gentle and kind.

Wang Faxiang is the first intelligence officer to leave Xinpingbao, for so many years, even Li Zhuang has not been there, from a tall and handsome young man, a flash is already in his thirties, to a standard middle-aged handsome guy, and his temperament has also changed from a little jumpy to calm, but I don't know if Wang Faxiang will remember the past experience of shooting flowers everywhere in Datong when he is free.

"I've seen Brother Wang."

The two young descendants bowed together and returned the salute, Wang Faxiang's identity is one of the directors of the Beijing Division, which is equivalent to the deputy position of the military department, and his status is equivalent to Zhang Xuwen, higher than Li Pingzhi, and the age is a little older, and the two know that this person must be engaged in military intelligence, and they are a little afraid of this, and they are very thoughtful in terms of etiquette.

"The military secretary is so short of silver?" Zhang Xuwen's identity and experience made him speak very frankly, and he said to Wang Faxiang: "I don't know if the 600,000 yuan we sent can solve the trouble?" ”

"That's enough." Wang Faxiang said with a smile: "To solve it completely, it is still worse." ”

Both Zhang Xuwen and Li Pingzhi agreed that the financial gap of the military department this year is 2 million or even higher, and the process of copper smelting has gone one step further, and it can earn 300,000 yuan more, cloth can earn 300,000 yuan, and the donations of merchants from various places may reach 200,000 to 300,000 yuan, plus the 600,000 yuan shipped from Taiwan, the gap is still 600,000 to 800,000 yuan.

After this run, there may be a small amount of repatriation, but for a long time, there will be a significant reduction in the deposit of the account office, which is related to the life of the family.

Seeing that the two young juniors were worried, Wang Faxiang smiled and said: "When this year's financial budget comes out, the three directors of the capital are all shocked, after all, the gap is too big. Now that we are moving left and right, opening up sources and reducing expenditure, the gap is only hundreds of thousands, what is there to worry about? In terms of military divisions, they will also find ways to make more money...... It has been asserted lately. ”

"I won't go back to Lizhuang," Zhang Xuwen said categorically: "First you go to Phi Dao with peace, and then go back to Taiwan, and return to regular political affairs. ”

"Exactly." Li Pingzhi also said: "I heard that Lin Dan Khan has moved west, and the war is inevitable, once the war starts, it will not be the cost of daily training, and once the army is mobilized, it will be at least a million gaps." ”

He Yusheng did not plan to take the initiative to attack, the merchant army was shrinking and stationed everywhere, Bai Hong Dataiji and his tens of thousands of Karaqin herdsmen began to choose a place to settle, but if Lin Dan Khan insisted on moving west and coming all the way to the west, war would be inevitable, even if the merchant army was stubbornly waiting for the war, the military expenditure would be indispensable.

"It's really a tree that wants to be quiet and the wind doesn't stop." Zhang Xuwen listened to the latest situation introduced by Wang Faxiang, and a very urgent and nervous feeling also came to his heart, on the Taiwan side, and Yusheng's family is dominant, and no force can compare with it. Moreover, at that time, people recognized Taiwan as Huawai Fandao. Even if the Fujian Navy Division withdrew from the war with the Dutch, from the governor to the general soldiers and ordinary sailor soldiers, no one would think of the idea of fighting Taiwan, after all, it was still decades before Zheng Chenggong defeated the Dutch and officially brought Taiwan under his rule.

Isolated overseas, a large family, and nearly 20,000 tun residents and thousands of troops, the small life in Taiwan is still very comfortable, and when they arrived in Tianjin, they felt this tense atmosphere, and Zhang Xuwen and Li Pingzhi immediately felt the preciousness of Taiwan.

Li Pingzhi said calmly: "One north and one south, all of them are outside the jurisdiction of the Son of Tomorrow, and the layout of the adults is really far-reaching, which is sincerely admirable." ”

"Then we still have to do things and then talk about it, on the Taiwan side, the progress of shipbuilding must be accelerated, and the schooner must be built as soon as possible, I want to go back and stand behind Dezhnev with a whip!"

"Hmm." Li Pingzhi said to Wang Faxiang: "Brother Wang, please speed up, after delivery, immediately go to Phi Island, there are some accounts and goods that need to be delivered." ”

"Okay." Of course, Wang Faxiang readily agreed, and the general promotion of the military department to put him in charge of this matter is also a trust in his ability, if such a simple thing is messed up, he is really shameless.

Everyone took action, the people present are the elite of the internal system of Yusheng, the means and methods of doing things are obvious traces of Yusheng's internal personnel, fast, efficient, hierarchical, the silver of the whole ship was quickly emptied, and the procedures were done very quickly, and when the convoy began to set off, the receipts to the various departments and the documents to the military department have all been listed, and all the signatures and drawings have been completed.

All branches will receive different amounts of silver taels this evening according to the division of the financial side.

Before dark, the fresh water and various supplies on the big ship were replenished, and Zheng Shaolai ordered to prepare to anchor and raise sails and sail to Phi Island.

Wang Faxiang and the entourage of the capital stood on the shore and waved goodbye to the big ship.

In the twilight, many people from the port of Tianjin also ran out, and they looked at the giant ship in front of them with curious eyes.

Yes, for these people in the maritime merchants and ports in the north, the big ship of more than 160 tons in front of them is a well-deserved giant ship.

The general Chinese merchant ships to the draft of more than 40 tons is already able to go to sea normally, the cost of tens of thousands of taels of large ships, through in Liaodong and Tianjin, and then to Denglai ships are mostly only a few tons of small boats, is a mixture of merchant ships and fishing boats, after all, the separation is only a bay, there are many islands in the middle can be transferred, and it is mainly freight and fishing, the scale of business and trade is very small, it is not necessary to build sea ships.

Even if there are some maritime merchants in the north who go to the south, most of them are small ships of dozens of tons, and the ship in front of them is indeed a giant ship.

And there were thirty gun emplacements on the hull, and most of the maritime merchants who had been running south on the sea all year round had seen Dutch or Spanish warships, and they were no strangers to this kind of Galen ship, and they could easily see that this was a serious warship with dozens of guns.

In the eyes of everyone, and Yusheng's image has a little misplaced.

Previously, the foundation of He Yusheng was only thought to be in Xuanda, and then it was the grassland, and people did not expect that there were also warships of He Yusheng on the sea, and it was this kind of extremely advanced, with many artillery pieces and very sharp firepower.

Of course, this is also the people in the port who have not gone south during this time, and in the sea of Fujian, the name of He Yusheng has skyrocketed, and he is no longer under Li Dan and other maritime tycoons.

Ping'an has sold 600,000 taels, covering most of the merchant ships in Fujian and Zhejiang, and there will be more merchants who know Heyusheng's maritime strength in the future, and by this time next year, I am afraid that the maritime merchants of the whole country will know.

On the clear blue waters, large ships broke through the wind and waves, and soon disappeared into the blue waves.

……

Wen Zhongfa was officially transferred in April to serve as the regimental commander of the 12th Infantry Regiment.

Prior to this, Yang Er and Cheng Fang, Zhao Lide and others had congratulated him, and everyone had already drunk wine and said goodbye to each other, so when the official order was sent to the Thirteen Mountains, Wen Zhongfa and Wang Biao and others received the order, that is, they chose to go down the mountain on their own day, and set off in batches.

The route to the Dongjiang River was to sneak out of the Thirteen Mountains first, leaving heavy equipment such as long weapons and armor at the bottom of the mountain, and some experienced officers, such as instructors like Ren Mu, stayed on the mountain to help Cheng Fang and others continue to train qualified heavy infantry, and the elite infantry of a battalion trained in the early stage and Wen Zhongfa and others went down the mountain in batches, sneaked through the Houjin defense line with light equipment, and entered the Ming control area in the Jinzhou area.

The encirclement of the Houjin has been in vain, a large number of elites were transferred back to Liaodong, leaving only some Han troops and a small number of Jurchen and Mongolian cavalry to maintain the grain route, with the significant shrinkage of trade, the demand for the protection of trade routes in the Houjin has also been greatly reduced, and Yusheng's convoy still arrived in Horqin, Houjin only needs to mobilize less than half of the manpower and animal power before to transport a large amount of grain back to Liaodong, as long as they have a small number of elites to protect the grain route, while monitoring the movement of the garrison on the Thirteen Mountains, It is also necessary to guard against the Ming cavalry in the Jinzhou area, and to complete these tasks, it is enough to have 1,000 to 2,000 armored soldiers and Han troops.

The battle at the level of thousands of people, the Ming army at this time no general dared to fight, the original plan of the Later Jin was to trap the soldiers and civilians of the Thirteen Mountains, and to make the soldiers and civilians of the Thirteen Mountains surrender by cutting off food, and later cooperate with Yusheng and the Ming army, and opened the road when the main force of the Later Jin went west to Mongolia, a large number of old and weak went down the mountain, and a large amount of grain was sent up the mountain, which was enough to support the young and strong for a few years, what is the use of this siege? Besides, now that the national strength of Houjin is insufficient, and an army of 10,000 people is stationed here, the Thirteen Mountains don't know what will happen, and the weak national strength of Houjin must be dragged across by such a siege.

There was no difficulty in crossing the sparse defensive line, and when I arrived in Jinzhou, I felt at home...... The general army stationed in Jinzhou is really an old acquaintance...... Ma Chengen was ordered to be transferred a year later, resigned from the post of chief soldier of Datong, and then led more than 1,000 people from his family to take office.

It is allowed to take office in the Ming Dynasty, there are precedents for the general army and even thousands of people to take office, everything is to see whether the generals themselves have the strength to raise so many family members, and the general's inner Ding court will help raise a part, if the expansion is too much, the generals have to pay their own money to feed, such as the Liaodong Li family and the current Liaoxi ancestral family, their strength comes from their own families, and the imperial court's economic army can not fight, which is a well-known fact.

Ma Chengen is the leader of the Ma family in the current world of Dongli Xima, and it is too common to bring more than 1,000 people to office, and the imperial court will not only not blame but will strongly support it, because the stronger the general, the more stable and safe the defense line.

In fact, this is also the case, after Ma Chengen took office in Jinzhou, he repeatedly broke out with the Houjin cavalry in dozens or even hundreds of cavalry battles, the Ma family is the elite of the Western Army, and the combat effectiveness is not under the Guanning cavalry, and the will to fight is far beyond the so-called Guanning iron cavalry, although Ma Chengen did not dare to fight with the Houjin, but the small-scale cavalry war is also impressive, the Houjin defense line has repeatedly shrunk, Wen Zhongfa and others easily broke through, which is also related to Ma Chengen's efforts.

Indeed, Ma Chengen also said to Zhang Han at the time, the world is favored by the country, even if it is transferred to Liaodong, he must make an appearance, and ask the generals of Liaoxi to see what kind of general is the real Qin army man!
