The Eight Banners system draws one armor from three dings, this armor is the armor that will be distributed in the official soldier flag, and the remaining two dings are called Yu Ding, which can also be accompanied by battles, but they will not be equipped with armor in the flag, and their military resources, equipment and even weapons need to be prepared by themselves.

However, with the military victories again and again, the leather armor rate in the Qing army has been greatly improved, even exceeding that of the Ming Dynasty army, but it is still not enough to do one person and one armor.

These Yu Ding are obviously the lowest level, Ding Kou, who was not selected as an armored soldier, can only go out with the army, if necessary, to be an auxiliary soldier for the armor, and then hope to get a pair of armor for himself through looting, which not only improves the defense, but also can improve the status, because if they have armor, the next time the armor is short, then they can give priority to make up for it, and become a small nobleman who can eat military rations and even enjoy land and clothing.

That's what Erkh thinks.

He is Yu Ding of the Blue Banner of Manchuria, and the reason why he is Yu Ding is not because he is relatively strong, not because he is not good at martial arts, but because he is still very young, he is only thirteen this year.

When he was in Zhuangzi, he often listened to the elders talk about the wealth of the Ming Dynasty and the cowardice of the Ming people, but before he saw it with his own eyes, he couldn't imagine how rich the Ming Dynasty was, just as he couldn't imagine how cowardly the Ming people were.

In the past, the Ming people he knew were Liaodong Mingren, Han Baqi, and those guys of the Guan Ning Army, and those guys were also cowardly in his eyes, but it was not to the point of being outrageous, Erhe thought that he was a sensible young man, seeing is believing, he thought that all the Ming people were like the Han Eight Banners and the Guan Ning Army.

Therefore, he often thinks that the elders in Zhuangzi are bragging, how can a Manchurian warrior defeat a hundred Ming Dynasty soldiers, anyway, he thinks that even Baturu can't win a hundred Han army banner soldiers, and can't win a hundred Guanning army.

But this time, after entering the customs with Baylor in the flag, he believed it, and he was convinced.

When he entered the customs from the Wall Ridge. In January, in the Gyeonggi Fudi of the Ming Dynasty, he did not encounter a single Ming army who dared to fight with the Manchurian warriors, and even saw them from afar. Those Ming people, whether they were soldiers or ordinary people, all ran away. The deepest impression that these Ming people gave Erhe at the beginning was that they were tired of chasing, but when they caught up, they made a fortune, and they could always grab something, at least a piece of clothing.

Later, Erkh could no longer look at the clothes on these ordinary people, and his horse could not move so many clothes.

What made Erhe feel happy was that he didn't find the opportunity to display his martial arts and bravery along the way, but he grabbed a lot of things, and later exchanged them for silver. He pondered that he would be able to give himself a cotton armor after returning to Manchuria, and he was excited at the thought that he could have a cotton armor of his own before he became a soldier, and his biggest goal before entering the customs was just to grab a leather armor for himself.

But then Erhe's goal changed again, their partial division was in Yanzhou to divide the army, to the south to the Ming people's Nanzhili, Erhe grabbed more things, now he not only carried several large pieces of silver in his arms, but also a piece of gold, he had never seen gold before, one of his banners Bashiku told him that gold was worth ten times more than silver. At first, Erhe instinctively wanted to doubt it, but when he thought that what his predecessors said after entering the customs was confirmed, he believed it. happily picked up the gold.

By the way, this piece of gold was given to him by a fat man in smooth clothes that he chased on the road, and the man knelt on the ground and held the gold above his head and kowtowed, and he didn't know about gold at that time, so he took the gold, killed the fat man, robbed the fat man's clothes, and pulled out a lot of silver from him, and pieces of paper, he couldn't read and didn't know what was written on the pieces of paper. Bashiku was also illiterate, but Bashiku told him that it was better to put it away. In case it's something useful, take it back and show it to those literate guys in Han Baqi. Maybe it can be sold for money.

Anyway, the pieces of paper are not heavy, so Erhe picked them up, and soon even he forgot about those pieces of paper, because the robbery is so happy, you don't have to do anything, you can grab it with a knife, and you don't even have to use your hands, and those Ming people will take the initiative to give it to you.

Erhe grabbed Yanzhou from Qingzhou, and then grabbed Haizhou, General Zhengming has ordered to join forces in Shandong, but their southward team is a little reluctant to go, especially outside Haizhou robbed several villages, and gained a lot, they feel that there are more things in the city, and they want to try to attack the city.

And they don't have to be afraid of Abatai, and they may not be punished later.

Therefore, they decided to rob Haizhou and then return to Shandong to join forces.

But in order to pursue speed and grab more things, they are all cavalry, without a single auxiliary soldier, there is no way to build equipment, the leader of the army is really very smart, he asked everyone to search for Ming people in the nearby villages, not to kill but to rush, to Haizhou City, and then they don't have to worry about the people in the city to release arrows and guns.

They were going to force these people to attack the city with them, they hid behind the Ming people, climbed the city wall, and then killed all the Ming people in the city, robbed them of their belongings, well, and finally kidnapped their wives and daughters, this is the last trip, everyone wants to keep some women, they can sell them if they don't use them, and it's good to sell them to the Mongols for some livestock.

Erhe heard a lot of predecessors say, as long as you take the Ming people out of the customs, some people called merchants are waiting there, whether they are men or women, they want it, I heard that these merchants are also Ming people, but they are very good Ming people, the Great Khan has an order, these merchants and Ming people can not be killed, these Ming people want women to wealth, and then they will give Manchurian warriors food, fine iron.

But all this is based on the laying of Haizhou City, and in Erhe's mind, laying Haizhou City has been equated with iron armor.

Therefore, he was very eager to take Haizhou City, and in the past few days, he saw that the accompanying soldiers continued to plunder the villages, and Erhe could only stay under the city to guard the people who were driven one by one, but Erhe did not have any complaints, because he had a strong desire to take Haizhou in his heart.

Knowing today, suddenly there was a fleet on the Rose River in the west of Haizhou City, Erhe, who grew up in a Zhuangzi in the interior of Manchuria, had never seen a ship before, and he didn't see a ship for the first time until he entered the Ming Dynasty, but he was no stranger to see the fleet he saw today, he had seen enough ships in the Ming Dynasty, but after entering Nanzhili, he saw more ships than in Shandong.

When he saw the boats, Erhe was excited, because the robbery of these Ming boats often yielded more than the next village, and Erhe did not understand why the Ming people liked to gather so many good things together and put them on such wooden houses that sailed on the water, and sometimes he wondered if they were specially for the Manchurian warriors.

It is impossible not to rob when you see a ship, although Erhe knows very little things, but robbery is already familiar, as long as it is a robbery, his smart brain will have a lot of ideas, not only him, but also many ideas in the minds of others.

Therefore, after seeing the boats, they quietly hid, and when the boats stopped, they suddenly killed, thinking that the people on the ships would flee in all directions as before, and then they happily carried all the things on the ship home.

But this time the people on board did not run, and when they started to shoot arrows, they even opened fire.

This is unscientific, when did the Ming people dare to shoot birds at the Manchurian warriors, so a few Yu Ding were frightened, and immediately became furious, and went straight to the ship that shot them.

Erkh also followed, and was very active, almost rushing to the first.

But soon he was stunned, because he saw clearly the people on the ship, some of them were actually leather armor, and that armor, no matter how you look at it, Erhe was stunned for a moment, and his heart jumped thumping, could it be that his iron armor can be obtained without waiting to open Haizhou?

Erhe was stunned for a moment, and let the others pass over him, and before he could react, he suddenly heard another bird's clink, and then his horse was killed!

His horse was killed by the iron-clad Akito.

Wearing iron armor, Mingren, killing his horse, a series of messages made Erhe almost crazy, he wanted those iron armor like crazy, he deplored his horse like crazy, so he went crazy and wanted to kill all these Mingren.

He drew his knife and slashed indiscriminately, but he didn't know which person to slash at, when suddenly he heard the sound of birds again, and at the same time saw puffs of white smoke rising from a nearby ship. (To be continued)
