Chapter 52: Miserable! Battle of Yaozhou
On the Yaozhou Duty House, a quiet courtyard. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
At this moment, Bi Maoliang had already woken up from a coma, and everything in front of him, as well as the clothes that made every Da Ming Shi a little dazzling, Bi Maoliang guessed where he was at this moment.
Thinking back to the previous situation, Bi Maoliang sighed secretly.
Three days ago, he was still the main R&D engineer in charge of artillery research and development at the Dengzhou Ordnance Institute, but three days later, when he came to his senses, he had already become a prisoner.
To say that this Bi Maoliang is the brother of the same father of Bi Maokang, the chief firearms research and development expert in Beijing, although he is not as good as Bi Maokang in firearms research and development, he is also a small achievement, and he is also a well-known figure in the Dengzhou Ordnance Institute.
But carelessness in Jingzhou!
Now that he thinks about it, Bi Maoliang feels that everything is a conspiracy. To say that he has always been in good health, how could he suddenly have abdominal pain and diarrhea, so he took leave to recuperate at home.
However, on the way home to recuperate, he was knocked unconscious and robbed, and after waking up, he appeared here.
And...... And there will definitely be moles!
Dengzhou City is an important town of the imperial court, and the governor Yuan Keli personally sits in the town, which can be described as well-guarded, if it is not for the traitors of the Tartars in the city, how can he be taken captive by someone under his nose.
Thinking of this, Bi Maoliang was a little secretly afraid, if it was really as he guessed, then the person who lurked behind would definitely cause unimaginable harm to Dengzhou's defense.
Who will it be?
Dengzhou City is so big, there are thousands of officials, officers and officers, but Bi Maoliang didn't dare to guess, but he had a headache.
Just when Bi Maoliang was still secretly saddened by who was a traitor in Dengzhou City, there was a voice outside the door, Bi Maoliang had traveled outside the gate, but he could hear that it was Manchu.
In the 27th year of Wanli, Nurhachi ordered Erdeni and Kagai to create a script based on the Mongolian script.
Although it was in Manchu, Bi Maoliang listened to it sincerely.
"Has the Nanban in the house woken up?"
"Back to Lord Mailer's words, the minions have not heard any noise here."
"Oh, the food was delivered?"
"Just sent it in."
"Oh, open the door, I'm going to see this southern barbarian!"
"Huh."
After that, the servants in the house opened the door, and when the tower attacked the door, Bi Maoliang was still sleeping on the bed.
It turned out that when he heard the sound outside the door, Bi Maoliang had been prepared for a long time, and he 'fainted' again.
And seeing that Bi Maoliang was still lying motionless on the bed, Ta Xian frowned slightly, and his eyes swept over, but he caught a glimpse of the food placed on one side.
But he asked the slave on the side.
"But moved?"
"Back to Lord Mailer, a cat came in not long ago and stole a cooked chicken."
"Cooked chicken? How can there be cats here? ”
Hearing this, Ta Xi was a little puzzled.
"Back to the master's words, but there are cats, and I think it's a wild cat in the city."
"Oh, but you see the cat?"
"I didn't see it with my own eyes, but as soon as I heard the cat bark, the servant immediately came in, but found that there was movement in the window, and I think it must have been the cat who found someone coming in, stole the cooked chicken, and escaped."
Hearing this, Ta Xi seemed to be thoughtful.
A moment later, it was the Word.
"Immediately order to go down and have some men nail the windows so that the cat does not enter the room again, by the way, this Nan...... Oh no, the old gentleman wakes up and informs me immediately! ”
This last sentence was said in Chinese, but Bi Maoliang listened to it sincerely.
However, in the Manchu language, there is a 'Southern Barbarian', and an old gentleman who speaks in Chinese is inevitably a little too dramatic.
But here, Bi Maoliang understands that if he wants to pretend to be unconscious, he will eventually be exposed, after all, he needs food, and after the roast chicken, if he wants to eat something again, he is afraid that he will be noticed immediately.
And here, on the other side, Gaizhou.
Wang Zhengnan not only received an order from Huanglong to find the lost artillery master, but also received an order from the imperial Jingshi, and the emperor personally ordered to recover the lost artillery technician Bi Maoliang of the Dengzhou Ordnance Institute regardless of everything.
This is not only because Bi Maoliang is Bi Maokang's brother, and Bi Maokang is an important firearms research and development expert in Beijing, but more importantly, Bi Maoliang himself is a well-known artillery manufacturing expert.
Although Zhu Jian believed that his courtiers would not take refuge in the Houjin people so easily, he was not completely sure, after all, the longer the time dragged on, the greater the variables.
Isn't Hong Chengchou in history a stark example?
Therefore, Zhu Jian ordered to immediately launch a rescue operation, and the internal operation was codenamed 'Grab Food'.
For the sudden order, Wang Zhengnan didn't pay attention to it, but for a while, he drew the iron-blooded elite forces in Gaizhou City here to form a rescue team, which was personally commanded by him.
In addition, at the same time, the 'iron-blooded' spies hidden in various parts of Liaodong were launched to find out the whereabouts of Bi Maoliang.
And because of these years, the iron blood has developed relatively rapidly in the Dongjiang area, and the structural network is perfect, so once the news is issued, after half a day's work, Wang Zhengnan got news from Yaozhou, saying that Yaozhou's new post was brought back from outside not long ago.
Needless to say, Wang Zhengnan compared various data, but he knew that this person must be the Bi Maoliang they needed to find!
"Inform the squads, get your armaments organized, and go now!"
......
Wang Zhengnan and his gang went to Yaozhou to rescue Bi Maoliang, but they didn't mention it for the time being, but they said that there was an incident in the Huanglong school here.
If it is said that the start of the First World War in Yaozhou has become an inevitable thing, we will wait for the last news from Beijing and the Jing Navy can launch further actions.
Moreover, the letters written by Huang Long to Liu and Chen, the two general soldiers and the supervisor Yuan Keli, had already received a reply, and Liu and Chen said that they would send troops to the north to prevent Amin from taking advantage of the fire to rob, and sent people to assist the troops of the two brigades of the Jing Navy to attack and harass the direction of Haizhou, so that Haizhou did not dare to send troops to rescue Yaozhou City.
Yuan Keli sent a letter, saying that the Denglai Navy Division would call two warships, 'Jingyuan' and 'Pingyuan', to lead two small fleets, in the direction of Yanniangniang Palace, enter the mouth of the Dacha River and go north, cooperate with the strength of the three brigades of the Jing Navy, suppress the Houjin rescue force after Shengjing went south with firepower, and prevent Dolgon from sending troops to attack and harass at any time.
To say that the two warships 'Jingyuan' and 'Pingyuan' are the latest new warships launched by the Dengzhou Shipyard, they are made of wood-hulled steel structure, using two of the empire's latest improved steam engine wheels, although the tonnage is smaller than the Zhenhai ship, but the speed is faster than the Zhenhai ship.
In particular, the Jingyuan ship can reach eight knots.
The two ships are equipped with five red-coat guns on the port and port sides, and a five-meter-long steel breech cannon in the bow!
The war here is a foregone conclusion, it can be said that everything is ready and only the east wind is owed, but before this, Huanglong still has one thing to do.
Because there is a grain depot in Yaozhou City, the reserves in it are enough for the Yaozhou military and civilians to use for more than three years, and if this granary is not removed, it is destined to add countless variables to this war!
"Marshal, the pro-military camp has been fully prepared, just waiting for the marshal's order!"
