I'll add it next week when I'm out of fine. ）

On the eighth day of the fourth month of the seventeenth year of Chongzhen, the general was captured, and the Marquis of Yongning, Wang Dou, personally wrote a mobilization declaration "Raising Troops", which attracted the hearts of the whole people.

Everywhere in Xuanfu Town, groups of teenagers fought on the streets with swords, crying blood and marching. Baoanzhou Restaurant, Li Xiangqing has fully integrated into the atmosphere of the East Road, he is as drunk as his brother Zhou Houren, his face is flushed, he slapped the table with his sword scabbard, and shouted: "Send troops, send troops, kill all the thieves, and punish Hu Lu!" ”

They danced swords and sang loudly, and sang the military song of the Jingbian Army, "Horse Stepping on Yanran".

People from all walks of life and all walks of life have formed associations to express their support for sending troops. A large number of people poured into the streets, cheering for the Jingbian Army's imminent dispatch, and every time the sergeants passed by, they shouted "Wan Sheng."

The streets were crowded with people, countless sun, moon, waves, and flags were flying, and many people in particular flocked to the General's Mansion, where they were densely packed in the square, excitedly shouting "Wansheng" to the mansion, and their tsunami-like cheers were higher and higher.

Boiling and excited, there were boiling crowds everywhere, dazzling swords and cold lights, and fluttering small flags. A few years ago there was already a naïve nationalism in this land, and now this passion is fully emanated.

"The war has begun, and the country needs you!"

"Sir, Mrs., donate some money and food to the soldiers who go out on the expedition."

All the students of the capital and Xuanfu towns took to the streets to give impassioned propaganda speeches for the upcoming war, and many people spontaneously raised money for the soldiers. This is not only the students of the Wang Dou system, but also the scholars of various academies.

Everyone has realized that both thieves and Tartars must be completely eradicated, otherwise the future will affect their peaceful lives.

And ordinary people are the same, needless to say, Tartars, animal-like things, every time they enter the customs, they bring a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, and blood flows all over the field. And the thieves, perhaps at first some of the people did not know much about them, but now they know that they are a bunch of locusts, and wherever they go, they are clean.

I have worked hard to support my family, what if the thieves come and I am looted like the people of Beijing? Therefore, it must also be wiped out. Whether it is a thief or a Tartar, they must be killed.

Unconsciously, they also spontaneously flowed, and in the end all of them were swept into it, forming a kind of national fanaticism.

They donated money and materials, and they were all willing to do their part for the troops.

The hearts of the people have never been so united.

The hearts of the people have never been so hot.

On the ninth day of the first month, the Sanjin Commercial Bank announced that it would donate 1 million silver yuan to the soldiers who went on the expedition, especially Zheng Jinglun, the president of the Sanjin Commercial Bank, and Lai Mancheng, the vice president, each donated 150,000 silver yuan in their private names, causing an uproar in all walks of life.

On the tenth day of the first month, Yongning Hou Wang Dou expressed his appreciation for this, and at the same time he said that the money and materials donated by the people were all from their clothes, eating in their mouths, and reducing their clothes and food on weekdays. Though they do good for their country, how can their kindness not be rewarded?

He ordered that the money and goods donated by the people be converted into bonds and returned to the people one by one, and said that in the future, not only will the principal be fully returned, but there will also be dividends, and the interest rate will be higher than that deposited in the bank. It has also attracted a wave of donations.

At this time, a large number of gentry made a bold move, and they originally followed the trend to donate money and materials, but most of them were hundreds, thousands of silver yuan, to express their hearts. As soon as the bonds were issued, they snapped up 10,000 or 100,000 silver yuan.

On the 11th, the Wang family in Datong bought 1.5 million silver yuan of bonds in one go, which frightened the rich people in Taiyuan Mansion, Pingyang Mansion and other places to rush to Xuanfu Town to buy them, and the rich people in Shaanxi, Ningxia and other places were moved when they heard the news.

The Mongols outside the Seychelles also rushed desperately to buy them.

In the end, the amount of donations quickly approached the 5 million silver dollar mark.

……

"I didn't expect that there were so many righteous people in Xuanfu Town!"

In the palace of the original valley king, a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy wearing a net scarf and a bright yellow python robe was sighing.

This young man was wearing a costume representing the crown prince, his face was childish, and there was still a trace of excitement on it at this time, and it was Zhu Cihong, the crown prince of Huangming who escaped from Beijing.

There were a few people standing beside him, but they were some righteous people who rescued the prince from Beijing that day. A smiling fat man, Wu Yishi, looked kind, but a trace of light appeared in his eyes from time to time. One was about forty years old, tall and thin, with high cheekbones, gloomy and silent, and looked like an old peasant.

The crown prince called him Li Yishi, and he was called Qiangye, and he sometimes called him Qiangye.

There was another person, about thirty years old, with a somewhat melancholy expression, and a little inconvenience in his right arm, and the prince called him Xiao Yishi.

On the evening of March 19, the prince was rescued by righteous warriors and escaped from Beijing from You'anmen, but then went south, fled all the way to Laishui, and then went up the Juma River until he fled into Mashuikou. Then enter the east road of Xuanfu Town, and go to the town through Baoan Prefecture and other places.

What he saw and heard along the way was an eye-opener for this young man.

Poor Zhu Cihong spent most of his time in Zhongcui Palace after Chongzhen was appointed prince for three years, and then Chongzhen went out of the cabinet to give lectures in the eleventh year.

At this time, the state affairs were in turmoil, which troubled his father and the young man, and the sadness and exhaustion lasted until that night, and he will never forget the sad parting of himself and his father and queen mother that night. That kind of sadness and heartbreak ended until the moment he fled to Xuanfu Town.

It was a few days of fleeing, and it was also a time of chaos, broken mountains and rivers, and all kinds of things I could not bear to see. However, after escaping into Xuanfu Town, it was another world, where there was no hunger everywhere, no more homeless beggars, no rebels and thieves, and only stability, safety, wealth, and beauty.

Xuanfu Town's forts are clean and tidy, the villages are dense, the roads here are wide and flat, and the pedestrians on the road are full of vitality, full of red light, full of vitality. The people here are wealthy, courteous, and well-behaved.

The planning here is excellent, well-organized, especially the security is excellent, and the entourage is just a pomp and circumstance, and it is no longer a worry about safety. The prince saw that many girls in the town were also shopping at night, without the slightest fear of personal safety.

Densely populated, smelling chickens and dogs, bustling shops, row upon row, compared to what I heard, I saw everywhere in the Ming Dynasty on the song, here is another wonderful world entirely.

Everything had a great impact on the young man, and at that time he said to a few righteous people around him that the future of the Ming Dynasty should be like Xuanfu Town.

After arriving in the town, he also had a very good impression of Yongning Hou Wangdou, not arrogant or flattering, calm and steady, with thousands of miles of ravines in his chest, and he also respected him very much, and got along like a spring breeze. Every time he talked to him, the prince felt that he had gained a lot, and he wanted to have a long talk with him often, but unfortunately Yongning Hou was busy with official business, so there were not many opportunities like this.

His attitude also changed one hundred and eighty degrees, and he always said to the righteous people around him: "The hateful traitor deceived his father, so that such a big material as the Marquis of Yongning could not be reused, resulting in the state affairs falling into such a situation." ”

During the years that the prince was in the palace, the ministers around him naturally did not say good things about Wang Dou to him, and often attacked his people in front of him to compete with the people for profit.

What he saw in his eyes and what he heard in his ears made his mind go in the other direction entirely. After that, he read the newspaper even more, saw the recovery of stolen goods, and saw that countless pieces of silver were copied out of officials and merchants, and he couldn't help sneering: "This generation is so unjust, there should be this newspaper!" ”

He remembered that his father and emperor did their best for food and salary, and the civil and military officials all pushed back, which turned out to be to join the new dynasty. It's a pity that the nature of the thieves remains the same, and they eventually drank the bitter fruit brewed by their own hands, but the people of Jingshi suffered with it.

He hated and said: "Compete with the people, compete with the people, and the ministers have always said in front of the lonely king that the Marquis of Yongning will compete with the people for profit." Now Lone understands that this people are only referring to themselves! A group of rats, in vain to disregard the emperor's grace, just for personal gain! ”

I also read the newspaper scholar Chen Yan, the national abbot Zhou Kui and others were copied out of no less than 500,000 taels of silver, and how much silver did his father have in his own pocket? All the gold and silver and utensils in the palace were only 300,000 taels, and the treasury was only 200,000 taels of silver.

And these rats, as ministers, have more silver in their homes than in the treasury.

He hated even more and said: "This generation is innocent, and there is no sympathy!" The thieves chase the stolen goods and help them, and they chase them well! Let's see if you still want to join the new dynasty! ”

He said to the righteous people around him: "These sanctimonious people always speak ill of Yongning Hou, and now they understand what it means to compete with the people. Or Yongning Hou said it well, the state has big profits and small profits, and all the ministers say that they are all small profits, just for their family, and what Yongning Hou said is big profit. Take it from the people and use it for the people, which is also the reason why Xuanfu is so peaceful and rich. ”

He even said: "If the Ming Dynasty wants to be rich and strong, it must take the road of Xuanfu Town." ”

However, he was a little worried, he had consulted with Wang Dou, and Wang Dou thought that the day before the army was dispatched, the prince could declare the state in prison, and the name would be right. Of course, the crown prince agreed, and in addition to wanting to worship the Marquis of Yongning as the Duke of Yasukuni, the "Governor of the Chinese and Foreign Military" and the "Doctor Guanglu", he also wanted to worship him as the first and auxiliary minister of the cabinet.

However, Wang Dou declined, in addition to the position of the governor of the capital, the first assistant minister of the cabinet recommended Chen Xinjia, the former secretary of the military department, and there was a candidate for the secretary of the household department, he recommended Ji Shiwei, the governor of Xuanda. The rest of the personnel, he thinks that they can be discussed again, and after recovering Shenjing, they will be selected from among the hundred officials.

For example, he believes that the history of the Nanjing Military Department can be honest and strict, and it seems that it can be the Imperial History of the Left Capital of the Imperial Court of the Imperial Palace, or the Book of the Ministry of Rites. Ma Shiying, the governor of Fengyang, is down-to-earth and stable, and it seems that he can also enter Beijing to find a position.

It's just that the prince is worried: "Today, I know that all the loyal ministers are in Xuanfu Town, and the rest are all sanctimonious, can Shi Kefa and others be of great use?" ”

According to the prince's thoughts, the cabinet ministers and the six high-ranking officials were all replaced by Xuanfu Town, and the talents of the capital protection were good.

However, now Wang Dou only selected Zhong Rong as the left waiter of the household department, Lin Daofu as the right waiter of the military department, Fu Mingqi as the left waiter of the Ministry of Rites, Tian Changguo as the right waiter of the Ministry of Works, and Chi Da as the right waiter of the criminal department, etc., and the positions of the rest have hardly moved.

Oh, I recommend many people to be local governors, state and county officials, but it is too far from the idea in the prince's heart, which makes him a little dissatisfied.

Of course, what the two agreed on was that Wu Yishi and others were loyal and commendable, and they should be of great use when they were exceptional, and they should be appointed as commanders and envoys of Jinyi Guards, and they were all in command of the ministers.

However, the prince was still worried, and he said to the righteous people around him: "The officials outside Xuanfu Town say that they have no talent and no virtue, can they be qualified for these positions?" If Shi Kefa, Ma Shiying, etc., I am afraid that they are also sanctimonious. ”

He sighed: "The Marquis of Yongning and I said that we should unite all the forces that can be united, focus on the overall situation, and stabilize the Ming Dynasty. …… It's just that why are loyal ministers always wronged? According to the talents of the princes such as Xuanfu Town, Duhufu and other princes, they are cabinet ministers, and the six Shangshu are more than enough. ”

Since this boy who grew up in a closed environment stepped into Xuanfu Town, his outlook on life and values have completely changed, and he is even very disgusted with hearing people say that Yongning Hou is not. Du Xun, the eunuch who once guarded Xuanfu Town, secretly came to report to him that he was fighting Wang Dou, which made the prince extremely dissatisfied and disgusted Du Xun.

However, seeing that the Marquis of Yongning is humble and sinister, Du Xun is so scheming, and he still lets him do the important work of the director of the urban management bureau in Xuanfu Town, and he may be able to learn from it. After recovering Shenjing in the future, let Du Xun be the director of the Urban Management Bureau.

In the future, he will recover Shenjing and take charge of the country's affairs, and the young man feels worried in his heart, and he asks the righteous people around him, hoping to hear their opinions.

This road is full of dangers, rushing to kill, several times out of the siege, the righteous seem to be omnipotent, not to mention their loyalty to themselves, so that the young people can't help but feel dependent on them, and the young people are eager to hear their opinions.

Xiao Yishi said: "Although the villain is not from Xuanfu Town, he also knows that the Marquis of Yongning has a military and civil academy to train officials. There are many officials in the rest of the Ming Dynasty, so they may discuss with the Hou Ye and send more officials to Xuanfu Town for training to learn how to do things, not how to be officials. ”

The prince said with great interest: "Yes, the so-called red one who is close to Zhu, and black one who is close to ink is like this." When you get together with corrupt officials, you become greedy, and when you get together with loyal ministers and clean officials, you become better. Indeed, it is necessary to send more officials to train and form a rule. ”

Li Yishi said: "Xuanfu Town is heaven on earth, but I heard that the Marquis of Yongning is actually very idle, and all the work is done by his subordinates. ”

The prince said: "Lone also heard about it, and the Marquis of Yongning also told me that there is no need to be suspicious, and there is no doubt about employing people, which is worth thinking about by King Lone." If you use Yongning Hou, you have to use it well, don't think nonsense, and suspect in vain. The power of one person is also limited, otherwise what would the ancestors do if they set up the prime minister and the prime minister? ”

Wu Yishi smiled and said: "The villain doesn't know much, but he knows a word, pro-virtuous minister, far villain." ”

The prince praised it greatly: "Yes, the virtuous minister is the Marquis of Yongning, and it will not be wrong to listen to him more." Although the father is diligent, there are too many traitors around him, so there is a disaster for the master. ”

He sighed: "Indeed, there are too few people like Yongning Hou who are dedicated to the country, so there are many righteous people in Xuanfu Town, and there are few left." ”

After arriving in Xuanfu Town, in addition to reading the Xuanfu Times voraciously, the prince also made a private visit to Weifu, and walked around the streets under the cover of righteous people.

The security here is also very good, there is no danger of any kind, and no one cares about him......

Yongning Hou actually knew about several private visits to the prince's microfu, he said: "Go to the people more, have fun with the people, and understand their voices, this is a good thing, this is the image of the holy king, but pay attention to safety." ”

said that the prince's heart was warm, and there was a feeling of freedom and unrestrainedness. If this is known to those attendants in the original palace, those attendants who read the ministers, they have to kneel down one by one, and they must die, and they will never give up if they don't make him a one-eyed Mr. Morality.

On this day, compared with being in the palace, the prince felt more and more that the Marquis of Yongning was a loyal minister.

This morning, accompanied by the righteous people, he secretly went out into the streets, and by this time the mobilization declaration had been issued, and the streets were full of fire, and countless people poured into the streets, waving small flags, and many young people of his age marched and spoke, all of which made him excited and fresh.

There were also many students collecting donations, and when passing through a street, the prince also saw several students from the girls' school persuading them to donate, and the prince also donated five silver yuan to a girl's box, and the girl said sweetly: "Thank you for this righteous man." ”

Let his heart beat a few times.

Along the way, there are many donors and donors, which are all spontaneous from the people.

When he came back, he also heard the shocking news, the Sanjin Commercial Bank announced a donation of one million silver yuan, which made the prince sigh with emotion, compared to the Jingshi at that time, there were too many righteous people in Xuanfu Town, which made him more determined that the Ming Dynasty must take the road of Xuanfu Town.

At this time, there was still a trace of excitement on his face, and he stayed in the Gu Wang's mansion for a while, still feeling restless, and after Chen Xinjia, Ji Shiwei and others who came to visit again, he changed clothes with Wu Yishi and others and sneaked out of the mansion.

In the afternoon, the streets were even hotter, full of marching crowds, such as Lin's slogan, he first went to a restaurant to sit, and sang a "Horse Stepping Yanran" with all the drinkers, and then the prince went out of the restaurant, followed the flow of people, and involuntarily slipped to the front of the general's mansion.

Listening to the sound of Wansheng like a tsunami in the mountains, the prince couldn't help shouting, he shouted Wansheng for half an hour, and felt that his voice was a little hoarse, so he walked away with unfinished intentions, and couldn't sleep with excitement after coming back.

Everything in Xuanfu Town, especially the fiery atmosphere, made him deeply intoxicated.

……

The rhythmic sound is endless, sparks are flying, and the heavy, hydraulic forging hammer driven by water power constantly hits the red-hot iron, forging it into a uniform, thick and textured iron fine plate. As far as the eye can see, there are dense forging hammers, craftsmen coming and going, all busy handling the forging hammers and raw materials, and the fiery power of steel is undoubtedly displayed here.

Some craftsmen wearing fox hats and smocks took the iron fine plates to cool them and then stacked them aside, and as far as the eye could see, the piles were like mountains.

There are also these iron fine plates in the factory shed, but they are first tempered, and then sent to a huge hydraulic hammer, and there seems to be a set of templates underneath. Then the hydraulic hammer started, slowly raised, and finally rushed down, with a huge punching force, with a bang, the iron fine plate was stamped into a shape.

It appears to be the front half of the cuirass used by the soldiers, and then the front half of the cuirass is removed, quenched, and finally formed into the required part of the armor.

I only heard the loud bang endlessly, and there was more than one stamping machine in the wide factory shed, and the stencil under each stamping machine was not the same.

A steady stream of breastplates, the front half of the body and the back half of the body are stamped out, and when combined, they form a complete pair of fine iron cuirass.

A bespectacled, master-like person looked at these cuirasses from time to time, and the cuirasses were constantly pulled out and sent to the outside shooting range for testing, slashing, spearing, archery, and even bombardment with firearms at different distances.

After a pair of cuirasses were forged and stamped out, after quality inspection, they were still semi-finished products, and they were sent to another factory. Most of them were military women, all dressed in uniforms, and they were responsible for lining and perforating. Compared to scale armor, these cuirasses were relatively simple to manufacture, but they were sufficient for use on the original tunding.

And these armors are all fine iron, such equipment, that is, many families in the Ming army can not have, that is, the use of the C-class army, it is still very powerful, and the Ming Dynasty has an exclusive one.

Sewn and wrap the inner lining, and put on the belt, a pair of cuirasses was finally completed.

As far as the eye can see, the cuirass is polished and shimmers with a metallic texture, and is lined with a thick, dark red cloth that does not wear down the body. The two sleeves are more than half a sleeve. The collar protrudes and flips to resemble a shoulder scarf. The red cloth lining on the bottom is about the thighs, and the overall aesthetic is more dazzling.

The two-rib belt is also a leather hole buckle, and after the sergeant wears this breastplate, he is equipped with an eight-petal hat and iron helmet, the image is mighty, showing the heroic spirit of the soldiers.

This is the Jiajiaying Military Factory in Xuanfu Town, which not only produces bird guns, but also produces armor and weapons.

Compared with the first time Wang Dou arrived in Xuanfu Town, the changes that have occurred here are also obvious, and a reservoir has been built on the river, so that the hydraulic drilling machines and hydraulic forging hammers have a stable water flow, so the production efficiency is amazing.

Last year, due to the collection of tunding and equipment for soldiers, the armor that had been hoarded in the military factory was empty, but under the strong productivity, the treasury was soon filled again. If there is any battle damage, it can be replaced quickly, so as to ensure that the soldiers have good equipment, no need to worry about the future, and fight with peace of mind.

And this situation is not only the Jiajiaying military factory, but because it is next to the steel factory, the scale of this military factory is expanding more and more.

……

Huailaiwei, twenty-five miles away from the west of the city, the old word warm shop.

This line is the place where the soldiers will march through, and it is necessary to ensure that the soldiers eat, drink, and rest well along the way, which is something that the castle must ensure along the way. Therefore, one post shop after another was handed over to the military station, and a steady stream of materials was transported to one warm shop.

Looking at this piece, the minister's warm shop, the old word warm shop, the word warm shop, chicken, duck, pig, fish, sheep, vegetables, fruits, flour, millet, hemp rope, wood, water tank, all kinds of materials, just to these warm shops inside and outside the collection.

The logistics waved white silver rounds and colorful food stamps, just to purchase materials from the major tunbao and castles, as well as the major merchants, and the people spontaneously supported, people came and went every day, cars and horses were crowded, and the sky was full of noise.

Near the warm shop, Chen Xu is directing the construction of some pergolas, which is for the soldiers passing by the march to drink water and rest, not far away there are students and propaganda department personnel busy painting slogans on the walls of the warm shop, many children around watching, waving the sun and moon flags jumping and shouting.

Chen Xu sweated, these pergolas should have been built a long time ago, but they ......

Firecrackers rang out, gongs and drums were noisy, and a group of villagers beat gongs and drums, and they came one by one carrying pigs, sheep, vegetables, and fruits.

A logistics staff next to him patted his head: "Oh, this is the first wave, and my forehead is about to be paralyzed." ”

Another logistics staff said: "There are too many things supported by the neighbors, and there is no place to pile them up...... Not to mention 200,000, even 400,000 will not be exhausted. ”

After the mobilization, the people's enthusiasm has reached a shocking point, they have transported all kinds of things, the warehouses of various military stations are full of all kinds of materials, and there are even coffin shops that have given a lot of coffins to the army, which makes people wonder whether to praise or scold.

Hearing their complaints, Chen Xu suddenly frowned, and he shouted: "These are righteous people, and An Ke has nothing to say." ”

His eyes were in a trance, as if he remembered the past when he was a good man in the trench, and in a blink of an eye, all these years have passed, and the changes in Xuanfu Town are vivid.

He said: "The people's hearts are like this, what can the husband say? ”

He greeted him with a smile on his face. (To be continued.) )
