When the green battalion started, several recruit teams formed after Xinxing were ordered to gather in Dongcheng, and Zhou Shixiang asked the recruits to come over for a very simple purpose, that is, to let them see what kind of virtue the flag soldiers were.

Since the second year of Yongli (the fifth year of Shunzhi), Li Chengdong led the army into Guangdong, because its department was originally a peasant army, and its combat effectiveness was several times stronger than that of the Southern Ming official army, so every battle must be victorious, so that the Guangdong Ming army had nowhere to stand, and the Yongli small court was frightened from Guangdong to Guangxi. Under such circumstances, the people of Guangdong were naturally impressed by the strength of the Qing army, and everyone at the time called it "the North Yankee is strong and invincible".

Later, in the fourth year of Yongli (the seventh year of Shunzhi), Shang Kexi and Geng Jimao led the Han army flag to enter Guangdong, although the number of Han troops under the command of the two kings was only a few thousand, but because the soldiers were all veterans of Liaodong, and the equipment was mainly firearms, so the combat power was stronger than that of Li Chengdong. Although Li Chengdong's death made the Ming army in Guangdong leaderless and collapsed, the Han army banner and Manchurian soldiers who entered Guangdong were also the main reason for the defeat of the Ming army in Guangdong. Later, Li Dingguo attacked Guangdong with tens of thousands of elite soldiers with the momentum of two famous kings, but he suffered heavy defeats in Zhaoqing and Xinhui one after another, which made the people of Guangdong talk about a clear change.

When Zhou Shixiang was still a new showman, he often heard people say that "the green battalion can't be provoked, the flag soldiers can't see it, and the full soldiers can't hear it", to the effect that the soldiers of the green battalion can't be offended, and the flag soldiers can't be offended, you just can't look at them, and the full soldiers are even worse, Hugh said to look at them, just hearing the word full soldiers can scare people into dissipation, how far to escape. Otherwise, it will ruin the family, or move the head. Although these three sentences are somewhat exaggerated, they can also reveal the extent to which the people of Guangdong fear the Qing army.

After the emergence of the Taiping Battalion, the newly formed teams are recruits, these soldiers are no better than the veterans who have fought a few battles with the Qing army, and subconsciously fear the Qing army more than the fear of the Taiping army, so it is necessary for Zhou Shixiang to let them see with their own eyes what kind of virtue the legendary "unseeable" flag soldiers are, as long as they see those flag soldiers, they will also be afraid, they will also beg for mercy, and they will die if they are also cut down, and the fear in their hearts will naturally fade.

Whether it is the Manchurians, the Han army, or the green battalion, they are all people. As long as it is a person, it is raised by a father and mother, no more heads and more hands than others, and a head cut is also a fart.

If it doesn't work once, it will be twice, and if it doesn't work twice, it will be three times, and there is no reason for these recruits to be afraid of the Qing army. Of course, the premise is that the Taiping Camp can continue to win, otherwise, a defeat can make everything in the Taiping Camp disappear

The one-sided slaughter was very relieving, although it was those green battalion soldiers who did it, but in the eyes of the recruits in the Taiping Battalion, they were also happy, although there were many people who vomited for it, but the effect was also there, at least, Zhou Shixiang heard some recruits muttering something "Beiyan is just like this".

But that's it!

When Qin Zhisheng proposed to accept the flag soldiers just now, Zhou Shixiang was moved, but he immediately rejected this proposal, because he thought that the flag soldiers were flag soldiers, these people were not the same as the green battalion, and they were no longer Han in their bones, many of them were in Liaodong before the Jiashen national disaster, and the overwhelming advantage of the Qing army over the Ming army after entering the customs made them firmly loyal to the Qing court, especially the identity of the Han army flag made them think that they were one level higher than the Han people in the pass, under this mentality, It is simply impossible to expect them to be able to remember their Han identity. If you use the name of later generations, Zhou Shixiang prefers to call the banner soldiers of the Han Army Banner "two devils", and it turns out that the two devils are far more hateful than the big devils, because they are often more murderous than the main lord when they slaughter their compatriots, and they are unscrupulous.

The important thing is that the Han army banners in Guangdong are all from Liaodong with Shang Kexi and Geng Jimao all the way to Guangdong, and their families are all in Guangzhou, so it is impossible to follow the Taiping camp with all their hearts, unless one day they will also be like today's green camp to cut themselves off - exchange the heads of the Manchurians for their lives.

All in all, the current strength of the Taiping Battalion is not enough to accommodate this group of flag soldiers who are not familiar with it at all, and Zhou Shixiang does not want to raise tigers for trouble, so he can only use their heads to cut off the retreat of the Gaoyao Green Battalion, and at the same time let the recruits in the battalion see the virtue of the flag soldiers, which not only indirectly expands the team, but also indirectly improves morale, killing two birds with one stone.

After witnessing the corpses of more than 100 bannermen being dismembered by random knives, the recruits received a new order to drag these dead bannermen out of the city. The order was to drag it out of the city, and it didn't say it was going to be burned, and it didn't say it was going to be buried, it was dragged out of the city. As for whether these corpses were eaten by wild dogs or buried by the high-ranking people after the Taiping camp left, it was not a matter of Zhou Shi's concern, and what he was concerned about now was not only the collection of more than 200 high-level green battalions, but also the captured Han army flag firearms.

Different from the records of later generations, the quality of the firearms used by the flag soldiers obtained by Zhou Shixiang is superior, and the power is also great, it is by no means that the other party can still pounce on the dragon and tiger with a gun, although it cannot be compared with the musket of later generations, but it is definitely a thing that kills people.

According to them, the guns used by the Ming army often exploded, so the soldiers did not dare to use them with confidence, and over time, the guns became the general things like burning sticks in the army, but the generals who had the means always avoided their subordinates from being equipped with firearms, but asked for more swords, bows and arrows as much as possible, even if they wanted more cotton armor, they were not willing to ask for more firearms.

There are many reasons for the poor quality of the Ming army's guns, and everyone has different opinions, but one thing is universally recognized, that is, the imperial court did not give enough silver. If there is not enough silver, there will not be enough raw materials, and the people who are responsible for making the fire gun are the same generations of craftsmen as the military households, and these people can't even solve the problem of food and clothing for their own families, how can they make the fire gun with their hearts. Under the vicious circle, the fire gun that could have allowed the Ming army to crisscross the desert has become an outcast in the army.

Unlike the Ming Dynasty, which did not have enough silver to build the firecracker, Kong Youde and others after the Qing Dynasty brought a large number of craftsmen to the Qing army, and was highly valued by the Emperor Taiji, and the craftsmen who made the firecracker also gave a reward far beyond the Ming Dynasty, not only to give gold and silver fields, but even to give official positions, so that the production enthusiasm of the craftsman was greatly improved, coupled with the Qing court's requirements for the firecracker was almost harsh, and there was no deduction like the officials of the Ming Dynasty, and the quality of the firecracker made by the craftsman was not good!
