Chapter 1082: The Age of Firearms
~~~~~~
"Clear Spring?"
Li Yuanqing smiled and became interested, "Which side is it?" I really didn't pay attention. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Wang smiled in a low voice: "Master, it's halfway up the mountain two miles to the north." The slave and maid also listened to the sisters. Before, they used to go there to take a bath. ”
Li Yuanqing smiled and nodded, these days, he was only busy with business, but he really didn't relax carefully, for a moment, he smiled: "This is a good idea." Pack up. Don't wait for tomorrow. Let's go now. ”
"Huh?"
Wang Wei and Feng'er were stunned, they didn't expect Li Yuanqing to be in such a hurry, but Li Yuanqing spoke, and they didn't dare to resist, so they hurriedly went to the big tent below to clean up.
Li Yuanqing recruited Yang Lei and asked him to order a hundred personal soldiers, carry the materials of the big tent, and tonight, go directly to Qingquan for the night.
These days, he has been in a dense military camp, and Li Yuanqing's nerves have almost always been in a high-intensity state, and he really needs to be soothed.
This clear spring is located under a small cliff on the sunny side of a small dirt mountain, and it has formed a small waterhole more than ten meters square for a long time.
On the east side of the waterhole, a small stream leads to the sea.
In fact, this vast area of Kannai has never been too short of water.
Even though it was greatly affected by the Xiaoice River at this time, the water potential and flow rate of several major rivers have always been good.
Unfortunately, the water conservancy projects here and there are too few to be used effectively.
But ~, three feet of ice, far from a day's cold.
If you want to change and make progress, whether it is Daming or him Li Yuanqing, there are many, many things that need to be done.
Yang Lei and his soldiers all went to camp in the gentle area more than 100 steps away, while Li Yuanqing had already jumped into the waterhole like a fish and swam back and forth a few times.
It's just that it is already late at night, the water is already very cold, Wang Wei and Feng'er are both delicate women, and they are obviously not suitable for this intensity.
They sat on the clean rocks by the waterhole, barefoot, laughing and playing in the water, which was also unique.
After a while, Li Yuanqing was tired and completely cooled, so he came to them naked and let them serve and dress.
Wang Wei was already very familiar with Li Yuanqing, so naturally there was nothing unusual, but ~, Feng'er was facing Li Yuanqing's naked fruit body for the first time, and her pretty face couldn't help but flush, and occasionally, her little hand touched Li Yuanqing's skin, Li Yuanqing could clearly feel that her little hands were trembling.
When Wang Wei went to Li Yuanqing to get clothes, Feng'er suddenly whispered to Li Yuanqing: "Master, tomorrow, you put the big tent farther away." Maybe...... Maybe you can see someone coming to take a shower......"
"Huh?"
Li Yuanqing couldn't help but smile and looked at Feng'er's eyes with a smile.
Feng'er hung her head shyly, not daring to look at Li Yuanqing.
…………
The night in the mountains was cooler than on the seaside, and when we returned to the big tent, the firemen had already prepared supper.
Li Yuanqing smiled: "Wei'er, Feng'er, have a drink with your master." ”
The two girls naturally didn't dare to slack off, and sat on both sides of Li Yuanqing with a smile.
Li Yuanqing picked up the wine glass, gestured to the two girls, and said with a smile: "Wei'er, Feng'er, these days, you have followed your master, sleeping in the open air, and it has been hard." Come, I will give you a drink. ”
Wang Wei was ashamed and happy, he didn't expect Li Yuanqing to be so gentle, his big eyes were full of indescribable happiness and joy, and he was busy eating and laughing: "It is the greatest luck of a slave to be by my lord's side." ”
Although Feng'er didn't speak, she had already drunk the wine in the cup obediently.
Li Yuanqing looked at Feng'er's eyes again and said with a smile: "Feng'er, these years, I have been wandering outside, and I have worked hard, right?" ”
Feng'er was stunned for a moment, and nodded obediently, "Thank you, Lord for your concern." Feng'er has ...... Already used to ......"
It's just that although she said it was very relaxed, Li Yuanqing could clearly hear the heaviness in it, and couldn't help laughing: "We are both fallen people at the end of the world, why should we have met each other?" Come, let's have another drink. ”
Although Wang Wei's amount of alcohol is not bad, she is in a good mood today, and Li Yuanqing and Feng'er are persuading her to drink intentionally or unintentionally, and after a while, Wang Wei was poured down.
Li Yuanqing glanced at Wang Wei, hugged her to the bed with a smile, covered her with a blanket, and strode back to Feng'er's side, and said with a smile: "Feng'er, it's been so long, let's talk alone for the first time, right?" ”
Feng Erqiao's face was already flushed, but she didn't know whether it was drunk or shy, and after a while, she whispered obediently: "Feng'er has been looking forward to this moment......"
Li Yuanqing laughed in a low voice: "I'm afraid you think more than I think." ”
Feng'er looked at Li Yuanqing's eyes at this time, and said in a low voice: "The slave knows that the master has always distrusted the slave and the maid. However, the slave believes that one day, the slave can make the master believe in the slave. ”
Li Yuanqing continued to laugh in a low voice, but he hooked his finger at Feng'er.
Feng Er's pretty face turned even redder, and she was stunned for a moment, but she came to Li Yuanqing's side carefully, like a frightened deer, a little at a loss.
Li Yuanqing reached out and picked up her delicate chin, let her look at herself, and quietly looked into her eyes.
Feng'er couldn't avoid it, and for a moment, she simply closed her eyes. It's just that the long eyelashes are blinking lightly unconsciously, which is indescribably seductive.
At this time, Li Yuanqing gently pinched her pretty face, "It's not too early, go back and rest." ”
"Huh?"
Feng'er was stunned for a moment, and opened her eyes. She never expected that Li Yuanqing would try his best to get Wang Wei drunk, but it was ...... But that's just one sentence for her......
However, after a moment, Feng'er also reacted, if she wanted to succeed, she still needed to put in more effort, so she nodded obediently, "Yes." ”
Just curl out the door.
Li Yuanqing stared straight at her swaying but plump waist ~ buttocks, and his eyes couldn't help but squint slightly.
After a moment, Li Yuanqing suddenly whispered, "Slow." ”
Feng'er was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly turned around.
Li Yuanqing smiled: "The night in the mountains is a little cold, cover yourself with a blanket at night, don't catch a cold." ”
Feng Erqiao's face flushed, and for a moment, she smiled sweetly: "Thank you, Lord for your concern." Slaves and maids will take care of themselves. Ye should also take good care of himself. ”
It wasn't until he saw Feng'er's tight buttocks ~ petals completely disappear from view that Li Yuanqing retracted his gaze, poured a sip of wine hard, and scolded in his heart: "Lao Wang, Lao Wang, you dog, your mind is really vicious." ”
…………
At noon the next day, Man Gui had already arrived at the camp, Li Yuanqing hurriedly greeted him in person, and Chen Zhong also rushed over in a moment.
When the old brothers met, they embraced each other warmly.
Li Yuanqing thought that Man Gui would only come over in the evening, and the banquet was arranged in the evening, but fortunately, there were a lot of materials in the camp at this time, and it would not take much time for the firefighters to clean up now.
The three of them exchanged pleasantries and came directly to the big tent to rest.
The soldiers served tea, and Li Yuanqing said with a smile: "Brother Gui, on this trip to Beijing, you have lost a lot of weight than before." ”
"Hey."
Man Gui sighed deeply and said with a wry smile: "Yuan Qing, Lao Chen, don't mention it." If it weren't for my old man's life, this time, I'm afraid I would have to confess to the master in Beijing. ”
Man Gui said, busy recounting the battle of Shunyi and several battles of the Jingshi defensive battle, and recounting Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong in detail.
At this time, although Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong already knew the process and results of these battles, they did not know the details, and after listening to Man Gui, Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong couldn't help but fall into silence.
After a moment, Chen Zhong couldn't help but scream fiercely: "Lao Man, damn it, there are more than 20,000 people in Huang Taiji, and they have made hundreds of thousands of Jingying, plus Yuan Inspector and you, all so embarrassed?" ”
Man Gui said: "Lao Chen, I didn't even dream of it." And, I can clearly feel it. Huang Taiji did not exert all his strength. Especially, Huang Taiji's bird soldier who is recording the yellow flag is afraid ~, I'm afraid that it is no worse than the two of you. ”
"This shuffle!"
Chen Zhong chirped: "Is he really able to endure his temperament and let him succeed?" Yuanqing, if this is the case, this matter will not be easy to handle. ”
Li Yuanqing nodded slowly, "Huang Taiji is majestic and strategic, it is not surprising that he will improve." However, the matter may not be as serious as the two brothers imagined. ”
Cold ~ weapons are transformed into firearms, this is the tide of the times, and it is unstoppable.
As the old saying goes, 'Eat the marrow knows the taste'.
In the past, the firearms of the Ming army faced by Huang Taiji were just some shotguns and rotten guns, not to mention that they had no effect at all, and they often exploded.
But at this time, with the examples of Li Yuanqing and the children of the Changsheng Camp in front of him, it is not surprising that Huang Taiji changed his attitude and began to attach importance to firearms.
In fact, Daming's bird gun technology is actually very close to and mature.
However, the key to the emergence of such and such factors in wars, and even the factors that determine the outcome of a war, is man-made.
The poor treatment of the craftsmen and the constant deduction of the officials made the quality of all kinds of firearms far from guaranteed, and it was not surprising that there were problems at critical times.
But ~, in fact, this can't be entirely blamed on the mechanism of the imperial court......
The imperial court has always set very strict standards for the production and acceptance of these firearms, and each bird gun, whoever shoots it, must sign it.
It is to be able to directly find the person responsible if there is a problem.
Including a few decades ago, when the three major expeditions of Wanli, especially during the anti-Japanese aid period, the firearms of the Ming army can be regarded as sharp.
But~, since the end of Wanli, after Wanli Ye hid in the deep palace, the qualitative change of the whole thing has come a little quickly.
Even if the craftsmen know that something will be questioned, and even lose their heads, but ~, the county officials might as well be in charge now.
In order to survive, craftsmen can only do things with a clear conscience and live for a while.
If something really goes wrong, there is only one way to die.
It's like a vicious circle.
Especially after Salhu, no one dared to take on this responsibility, the soldiers did not trust the birds, the officers did not trust the birds, and even the craftsmen themselves no longer trusted the birds......
Can this be good?
But at this time, with the successful experience of Li Yuanqing and the children of the Changsheng Camp, everything~, but it is different.
However, even if Huang Taiji is proficient and bird-like, for Li Yuanqing, the problem is not big.
The era of firearms will come sooner or later, and at this time, Li Yuanqing just let it advance a little.
To some extent, this can be said to be a qualitative progress of the times.
Because the advent of the age of firearms will narrow the absolute difference between the Ming army and the Later Jin army in terms of combat power.
Just like during the Anti-Japanese War in later generations, millet plus rifles can still work with the advanced and stable standard equipment of the little devils.
But ~, if the infantry of the Ming army is against the iron cavalry of the Houjin army at this time, then ~~, it is like the aircraft carrier of the big brother of Iraq and the police in the later generations.
In particular, the tactical synthesis of the firearms era is much more cumbersome and complicated than the cold ~ weapons era.
Li Yuanqing has the experience of later generations, especially the experience of the mighty ordinary people in China during the Anti-Japanese War, which is obviously not comparable to the 'little junior brother' of Emperor Taiji.
Not to mention, the comparison of the Dingkou and national strength of the Ming Dynasty and the Houjin.
At this time, listening to Li Yuanqing briefly explain the reason, Man Gui and Chen Zhong both relaxed a little.
But for a moment, Man Gui said: "Yuanqing, Yuan Manzi's resentment against you this time is not shallow!" Have you coped with this matter? ”
