When there was a crisis between the monarchs and ministers in the court of the Manchu Dynasty, Haoge also led 5,000 soldiers and horses to Jinzhou.

At this time, the school field in Jinzhou was very lively, the new Liaodong Governor Li was awarding armor and weapons to the soldiers on the school field, and countless former Liaodong soldiers were lining up in turn looking at the hill-like weapons and armor piled up in the center of the school field and drooling.

"Wang Erniu"

"Here!"

"Chow Tai Shun"

"To"

A sergeant named by name stepped forward and received from the quartermaster the armor, helmet, black coat, cowhide boots, waist knife, spear, towel, iron kettle, and other complete sets of items that they had long been looking forward to wearing.

Zu Dale led a group of generals to stand on the viewing platform and looked at the armor shining with cold light under the stage, and the smile on his face never broke.

With a smile from ear to ear, he said to the ancestral porridge beside him: "Second brother, the armor issued by the imperial court is really strong, I asked the craftsman to estimate it, each pair of armor is forty catties, and the cost is thirty taels of silver. ”

Zu Da Congee was still not satisfied, stretched out his hand and grabbed his hair indiscriminately and said, "Hmph, but there is one thing they didn't send down, which shows that the imperial court is still guarding us." ”

"The second brother should be talking about the fire gun, right?" Zu Dale sighed: "Inspector Li also told us about this matter, and he said that it was because of these firecrackers, yes, according to the name of the imperial court, it should be called a rifle." These rifles are expensive to make and not produced in high quantities, so we have to endure them until next year. ”

Zu Da Congee snorted coldly and stopped talking, although he was reckless, but he was not stupid, if the court didn't immediately equip them with new rifles, it would be to prevent them, but they just knew this kind of thing, and it would be boring to say it.

On the viewing platform on the school grounds, Li Yan, who was supported by a group of generals, squinted at a merry soldier who stepped forward to lead armor, clothing, blades and other objects. A mysterious smile appeared on his face.

Li Yuan saw that Li Yan was in a very good mood, and stepped forward and asked: "Supervisor, since we have all sent armor, clothing and other things to the Liaodong Army, why don't we also send the rifles down, is the emperor still not at ease with the Liaodong generals?" But the last general remembered that the emperor even sold thousands of rifles to the Korean countries, so couldn't the Liaodong garrison send them? ”

Li Yan smiled slightly, he has always maintained some respect for the family of the legion commander who followed the emperor at the earliest. Shaking his head, he said, "General Li, it's very gratifying for you to think of this level of official, but in fact it's not. We sold rifles to North Korea because North Korea used white grain and real money to buy them, and we didn't have to be afraid that they would fight us with rifles, but what about the Liaodong armies? Did they buy it with silver? ”

"This is now our Dahua people!" Now Li Yuan was even more puzzled.

"You...... Li Yan sighed helplessly, and explained in detail: "The reason why the emperor can sell the rifles to North Korea is because these rifles will be scrapped as long as the barrel is scrapped after a few hundred rounds of projectiles, and they have to buy them from us, and whether it is guns or gunpowder, they have to buy them from our Dahua." This is a long-term business, and we can't let go of this kind of good thing.

But the Liaodong armies are different, although they have already bowed down to His Majesty. But faithfulness is worth scrutinizing. Besides, Your Majesty has a good saying, what is too easy to get is not cherished. There are nearly 100,000 soldiers and horses in the Nine-Sided Army, and if they are all equipped with such sharp rifles, in the case that we have not completely controlled the Nine-Sided Army, once someone has bad intentions, it will pose a great threat to us, do you understand? ”

After talking about Li Yan's explanation, Li Yuan suddenly realized, "Oh, I see, the last general understands." The emperor is going to dry Wu Xiang and Zu Dashou. Boiled their edges and corners. Let the Liaodong soldiers be familiar with and accept our Dahua from their hearts, and then they will send the rifles down, right? ”…,

"Hmm...... The child can be taught! ”

Li Yan smiled and nodded, although what Li Yuan said was not all, but it was not far from ten. Now Pang Gang's attitude towards Liaodong is like that of a hunter boiling an eagle. It is necessary to first polish the wildness of the generals of Liaodong and sharpen their temperament. And slowly take over their financial power over the army, as long as the logistics of this army are controlled, then they are powerless to do something else.

Judging from the current situation, Li Yan is still doing well. After a large number of military salaries, food, and armor were distributed, most of the middle and lower-level officers in the army had already developed a certain sense of identity with the Dahua Imperial Court, and if it was a little later, it was estimated that they would be able to control most of the Liaodong generals.

Thinking of this, Li Yan couldn't help but sigh, if he could give himself another period of time, wait until he completely controlled the Liaodong garrison and then send Shengjing, how good it would be! It's just that Li Yan also knows that it is impossible, now that Dahua has just been established, there are still Guangxi, Guizhou, Yunnan, Lingnan, Sichuan and many other places that have not yet been pacified, and it is impossible for the emperor to have so much time to let himself slowly clean up the generals of Liaodong, since time waits for no one, then he can only use the simplest and most direct method.

It's just that Li Yan didn't expect that just when he was thinking about when to march to Shengjing, a group of soldiers and horses from the direction of Shengjing had quietly approached Jinzhou...... There is a mountain range that is not high in less than two hundred miles away from Jinzhou, people call it Fangshan, Fangshan covers an area of about more than 50 miles, surrounded by woods, because the two countries often confronted each other in the Ming and Qing dynasties in previous years, it has become inaccessible here, so there are many wild beasts here, and the jungle is dense.

It was already approaching dusk, and a Qing army came from the north, this Qing army was all cavalry, the armor on each knight's body was all painted blue, and the thick bronze iron nails were exposed, and the inside was also padded with thick cotton armor, and the outside was covered with iron armor, which set off the burly and tall knights on the horse. Even those who don't know how to do it can see that this well-equipped cavalry must be an elite force.

Hauge was in this team, and Hauge at this time was also wearing a blue armor, covered with heavy iron armor, and padded with several layers of fine silk, whether it was armor or silk, it had good defense, and the armor on this body could be described as extremely luxurious.

Hauge rode on a yellow horse, saw that it was getting late, turned back to the general behind him and said: "Come, pass on the general of this king, it is getting late, the whole army dismounts and camps." ”

"Wow!"

Immediately someone answered, and soon the whole army dismounted, unsaddled the horses, and began to feed the horses, and the water, and the firewood, and everything was so orderly.

After a while, Fan Wencheng, who came with the army, also dared to come, and he panted and said to Haoge: "Prince Su, the slave is late, I hope you will forgive me." ”

"Haha...... Seeing Fan Wencheng's breathless appearance, Haoge and the generals around him laughed, Haoge pointed at Fan Wencheng with a horsewhip and said with a smile: "Bachelor Fan, this king has already said that you can stay in Shengjing and be your bachelor, why follow this king to suffer this hardship?" Fighting a war is not as fun as you Han Chinese books say, then it is about death. ”

It's been a few days since he came out, and because of Fan Wencheng's poor physique, he always lags behind when he marches, and if he hadn't been taken care of by a few sergeants, I'm afraid he would have been thrown somewhere long ago. Therefore, Fan Wencheng was also made fun of by Hauge.

Hearing Haoge's contemptuous laughter, Fan Wencheng still said stubbornly: "Prince Su has a good intentions and the slave has a heart, and since the slave is entrusted by the emperor, he naturally has to do the errand assigned by the emperor, otherwise the slave will not have the face to see the master when he dies." ”

Seeing Fan Wencheng's loyal appearance, the generals were embarrassed to say anything, only Haoge muttered a little angrily: "Hmph, my father hasn't agreed to accept you as a slave yet, don't call yourself a slave." ”…,

Fan Wencheng said categorically: "Regardless of whether the emperor agrees or not, since the day he stepped into Liaodong more than ten years ago, the slave has already been the emperor's person. ”

Yes, hearing Fan Wencheng say this, Haoge had nothing to say, although he hated Fan Wencheng very much, and always felt that it was because of his demagogy that his father trusted the Han people so much, and he also read many Han books, but he never doubted Fan Wencheng's loyalty to his father and the Qing Dynasty.

Haoge stopped talking, but Fan Wencheng began to nag again, "Prince Su, please forgive the slave for talking too much, this place is already close to Jinzhou, from tomorrow, we should send more detective posts to extend the search distance forward by fifty miles, so that even if we encounter a large group of Han soldiers and horses, we can calmly arrange." ”

"You old man, you're really verbose."

Haoge was a little speechless, all the way over, Fan Wencheng was always nagging, almost grinding his ears out of the cocoon, but he was not always angry with this old man.

In desperation, Hauge had no choice but to say to the generals around him: "Have you all heard, tomorrow will be fifty miles more than the outpost!" ”

"Wow!"

Just as Haoge and the others were burying the pot and cooking, next to an inconspicuous hill less than two miles away from the Qing army, a clairglass with a brass-colored luster was pointing at them, and a pair of eyes were carefully observing the army behind the clairvoyant.

A young man frowned and put away the clairvoyant mirror, turned around and whispered: "There are about 5,000 Qing soldiers who came, all of them are Tartar vests, it seems that this is the elite of Tartars, immediately send two people back to report the situation to the superintendent......
