Chapter 473: Cutting off the beard
Dolgon's big deal surprised Australia, and although the other party was completely caught up in his plan, the risk was indeed very high, and Dolgon demanded that the goods be delivered within a month.
According to the analysis of the intelligence sent by Feng Zihai, the competition for the position of the Great Khan has become more and more fierce, and Huang Taiji's bones are not cold, and the clan and his sons have begun to make big moves.
The two hundred banners are the main force of Dolgon, and it is also the strongest combat force among the eight banners of the Houjin, and the predecessor of the two white flags is the two yellow banners of Nurhachi, as the guard of the Great Khan, the soldiers inside are naturally soldiers who have experienced a hundred battles.
It's just that later Huang Taiji took the throne, swapped the yellow and white, and successfully touched the honor of the original two hundred flags, this matter has been making the two hundred flags linger, it can be said that they are very angry with Huang Taiji's move, and the current competition for the position of the Great Khan, once Dolgon ascends to the throne of the Khan, the status and honor of the two hundred flags are naturally unprecedented.
Therefore, the children of the two hundred flags are very strong to support their own banner owner Dolgon's competition, but as the eldest son of Huang Taiji, Haoge's power is not weaker than the two hundred banners at all, and as for the flag owner of the two red flags, Dai Shan, is completely in a state of soy sauce in the whole thing.
Because there are no talents in the two red flags, there are no young generation of people coming out to carry the flags, and the competition for the sweat position is naturally not so fierce.
However, Dai Shan's words are still very popular, after all, he is the eldest Belle Lord and the patriarch, and his prestige is still there.
Under these circumstances, there was only one way for Dorgon to greatly increase his strength by 200 banners in a month, and to increase the armament of his troops.
Dolgon, who had this consciousness as early as the attack on Korea, was second only to the two yellow flags in terms of troop equipment, so it can be seen that these artillery must be armed with two white flag troops.
As for what he was going to do with these weapons, I really couldn't guess now.
However, it is certain that it is related to the position of the Great Khan, and the one in the palace has already met with Daishan. As for whether she persuaded Dai Shan, it is difficult to say according to the original historical development, after all, the butterfly effect has played a role, and no one dares to guarantee it.
What Australia is most worried about now is that they will attack the Ming Dynasty with this batch of weapons, and what kind of situation will occur once the Ming is used can be imagined.
Although the defense of the Shanhaiguan of the Ming Dynasty is high and thick, it cannot withstand the attack of so many artillery. With so many artillery attacks, it can be said that there is no difficulty in breaking through Shanhaiguan.
The most important thing is that once the Shanhaiguan Pass is breached, the army of Houjin can drive all the way to the capital, and now there are no troops that can be mobilized in the north of the Ming Dynasty, and Li Zicheng's step-by-step pressing has made Chongzhen a little breathless.
If at this time, Hou Jin breaks through Shanhai Pass again, then it will speed up the process for Ming Dynasty, but with Hou Jin's strength and population, Dolgon will most likely not directly attack the city. Because he knew the extent of the civil strife within the Ming Dynasty.
Once he entered the pass, he had to fight against the peasant army, which was a very manpower-consuming thing.
For the artillery needed by Dolgon, Australia urgently deployed and shipped it from the inventory to Liaodong.
In just a few days, Dorgon obtained the artillery in secret and armed himself with two hundred banners.
This made Haoge and the others surprised, the power of this artillery is not simple, since the other party has put out the artillery of the white gate, then if it is not, its own side will be seriously threatened.
But it's okay. Hauge was also a man of the utmost fines, after learning about Dolgon's massive use of imitation cannons. He also saved a lot, and at this time he had at least a few hundred in his hands, although the power could not be compared with Dorgon's, but it was still possible to resist for a while.
What would happen if this news was revealed to Hauge, so that he could prepare in advance and prepare to deal with Dorgon.
Feng Zihai was ready to disrupt this Great Khan contest of Houjin. The more chaotic the better, and it can even be said that as long as their internal contradictions are deeper, it will be more conducive to helping Australia in the future.
So a casual news reached Hauge's ears that Dolgon had ordered 500 guns from Australia and was ready to force himself out by force.
The truth of this news, Hauge naturally wants to investigate. It was soon replied that Dorgon had indeed sent Scofa to Hong Kong, and had given the craftsmen of the workshop a picture of what they had made inside, which was said to be an Australian artifact, and that the power of one could be equal to the power of ten 26-pound guns.
It's the first time Hauge has heard of such a great power, but I'm afraid it's difficult to build this thing, and he is most concerned about the five hundred cannons, since he knows the news, he doesn't plan to let Dolgon get his wish, he is ready to cut off his beard.
Intercept 500 artillery pieces on the way and use them to arm their own forces.
There are many speculations about who released this news, and Dolgon is not the only one competing for the position of Great Khan, but he must seize the opportunity this time anyway.
So Haoge successfully fell into Feng Zihai's scheme, and secretly sent people to investigate Dolgon's transportation route and how many people were escorted.
Of course, this open-faced truncation has not yet begun, Dolgon already knows Hauge's plan, he did not break the other party, but is ready to let the other party follow his own set path, and the last move will put him in the ranks of the competition for the throne.
It's just that half of the competition between their uncle and nephew was won by Feng Zihai's scheme, Feng Zihai's purpose was to make people guess each other, suspect each other, and then fight, and finally fight to the death.
For Feng Zihai, this is one of the most important plans, which can not only successfully weaken their respective strengths, but also enhance their dependence on Australian artillery.
This played a key role in Australia's export of weapons and indirectly controlling the combat effectiveness of the Houjin army, and a key part of the artillery plan was to control the Houjin's ammunition inventory.
Once Australian-made weapons are fully used, they will gradually block out the kind of knockoffs they have made.
This is a bit like once people live a good life and get used to it, they must not accept to live a poor life all of a sudden, so those Eight Banners who are used to Australian goods will also feel disgusted with their own knock-offs, and even because of material problems, there will be insecurity factors in their own manufacturing.
