Among the generals, only Feng Qin did not show too much joy.

His personality has always been like this, and everyone, including Zhai Zhe, is accustomed to it. If Feng Qin jumped up as excited as Meng Kang, it would be amazing.

However, Feng Qin did not miss every word Zhai Zhe said.

"There are only 10,000 flint guns"

By next year's rainy season, flint guns will only produce 10,000 rods, which means that at most one army can be assembled, one army to be sent directly to the battlefield.

If the Ming Dynasty wanted to go on a northern expedition, there were two directions that could be done.

All the way from Huguang into Henan, threatening Shaanxi and Shanxi.

All the way directly across the Yangtze River and capture the Jianghuai.

If there is a war next year, there will inevitably be two roads, but there must be one way to be the main force, and the other way to be controlled by the division.

Under Zhai Zhe's deliberate adjustment, the army of the Ming Dynasty has been divided into two major factions. The commander of the Huguang Army was Zuo Ruo, while the Jiangnan Army was based on Fengqin.

The two are friends and rivals who compete with each other.

Zuo Ruo is known for his bravery, and his tenacity is known all over the world.

There has always been a saying in the army that Feng Qin can defend the Yangtze River defense line without leaking, but when it comes to the Northern Expedition, it is more appropriate to be the commander of Zuo Ruo.

Feng Qin is usually silent, and he has the three flavors of "cautious independence", so this statement will only come from one place.

The Northern Expedition was the contribution of the Ming Dynasty and an indisputable opportunity to establish its position in the army.

After recovering Huguang, Zuo Ruo has always wanted to get the right to lead the Northern Expedition, and Feng Qin also expressed his will once again last year.

Now, Feng Qin doesn't have to ask for his life, he already knows Zhai Zhe's intentions.

Because it was him, not Zuo Ruo who came to Fuyang to watch the flint gun.

Zhai Zhe said: "This gun is sharp, and it is eighty percent similar to the bird's gun, but it will take some time for the sergeant to mature and mature."

Feng Qin said: "The flint gun is more convenient than the bird's gun, only the change of the sergeant's formation needs to be practiced"

"How long does it take to be proficient?"

Feng Qin thought for a moment and said, "Three months"

"Three months?" Zhai Zhe was a little surprised, it was longer than he expected.

"The flint is cast twice as fast as the bird's gun, so only the most skilled gunner can keep up with the lead and gunpowder of the flint. Bird guns have been used in the army for a long time, and the reloading of the guns has solidified, and they cannot wield the flint gun to the maximum effect without a long period of training. ”

Feng Qin was very thoughtful, and said: "Moreover, the soldiers and horses using flint still need the protection of armor, gunners and pikemen, and need to be reorganized. ”

Zhai Zhe listened carefully, he chose to fight in Fengqin not only because he preferred him more, but also because Fengqin was more able to wield a flint gun than Zuo Ruo.

Of course, he also admits that he prefers to be on duty.

This orphan he fished out of the dry well and brought it to the outside of the plug back then, in his heart is not much different from his son

From the fierce battle on the grassland to the sweep of the south of the Yangtze River, the general that the King of Jin relied on the most was only past his prime, but because of Feng Qin's calmness and sophistication, he gave others the feeling that he was much older than his actual age.

Zhai Zhe has always hoped that Feng Qin can be a little more energetic, like Xu Yiyang. He remembered the tragic situation of the cottage in Jinnan at the beginning, so he knew that the shadow left by the massacre on Feng Qin had not been eliminated.

The things you encounter when you are a child sometimes affect your life, and every thing is a chance, there are good and bad fates

Feng Qin's words are concise and to the point, and the tactics of the flint gun are briefly stated. In the military formation, he is a genius, not the kind of genius who is brilliant, but the kind of genius who is extremely fine.

Such people tend to compare their duties.

Zhai Zhe put down the flint gun in his hand and said very casually: "Fuyang already has 3,000 flint guns, and after you return to Suzhou, you will immediately select skilled soldiers from the soldiers and horses of your headquarters for training." ”

Feng Qin had already prepared in his heart, and when he really heard this, he was still in a mood, bowed down, and said, "Obey"

Li Zhian and other generals looked at Feng Qin and were happy and envious. Several of them had a good relationship with Feng Qin, and Li Zhian and Yuan Qizhou had formed a friendship with Feng Qin in Hangzhou. Although Feng Qin will not be too close to people, he will not be domineering.

Zhao Pu commanded the test-firing guards to put the flint back into the wooden box. These items have been kept under strict guard in the armory workshop, and there is no chance that the samples will go missing two months ago

Several generals were still immersed in the shock just now, and when the flint gun was put away, Zhai Zhe greeted: "Zhao Pu"

Zhao Pu trotted all the way, came to the front, and said: "In" He was born in Xiucai in eastern Zhejiang, and he was the first batch of staff members who were recruited into the Ningshao General Military Mansion by Zong Mao and Fang Yizhi. His position belongs to the Ministry of War, and his grade is not high, but he is poor. Since he came to Hangzhou in July, the owners of the three weapons workshops have offered him as a Buddha

"For every 500 flint guns made, immediately go to the general"

"Obedience"

Zhai Zhe pondered for a moment and said: "Every flint gun must be engraved with a mark, and it needs to be recorded wherever it goes."

Hu Guanghou, Zhu Zhanyun and Liu Taiguang, who were standing on the side, were overjoyed when they heard this.

The three firearms workshops are growing in size, and the use of markings on firearms can control the flow of firearms and also detect the quality of firearms. The three armory workshops will also become famous all over the world.

Wherever the Ming army set foot, the names of the three armory workshops will be sung.

In addition to flints, the three armor workshops also cast medium guns that could be placed on wooden carts, chariots that could be attached with iron hooks, and so on, all designed to fight the cavalry.

Feng Qin, Li Zhi'an and Yuan Qizhou were all veteran generals in the army, and after watching the ceremony, they proposed various very practical proposals, which opened the eyes of several owners.

The advantages and disadvantages of weapons are ultimately evaluated by the people who use them, Zhai Zhe took more than 30 martial artists to watch the ceremony in the weapons workshop today, and he also wanted to use this to throw bricks and attract jade, and asked the three weapons workshops to communicate with the officers and soldiers in the army to prepare the weapons needed in the army.

King Jin and his entourage stayed in Fuyang for four days and were always at the firearms test site in the mountains.

Zhang Huangyan, the governor of Zhejiang, the prefect of Hangzhou, and the commander of Fuyang County asked to see each other, but they were unable to meet each other.

Five days later, everyone left Fuyang, and more than a dozen large ships returned along the same road they had come.

Zhang Huangyan set up a banquet in Hangzhou to entertain the king of Jin for lunch, and then more than a dozen large ships went north along the canal.

Feng Qin and other generals went to Suzhou. As soon as he returned to the barracks, he immediately deployed his troops and horses and prepared them for the practice of flint guns. There are also those iron cannons fixed to wooden carts, which are very powerful in field battles.

The restructuring of the army was carried out simultaneously throughout the Ming Dynasty, and the replacement of weapons in the army began from the Fengqin Department.

Zhai Zhe went ashore in Zhenjiang and had just returned to Nanjing City, when two things immediately came to his door.

He was not so busy in Nanjing, and only left Nanjing for five days, and envoys followed.

One is Wu Sangui's cousin Wu Sanrong, and the other is Li Hu, a lieutenant general in Zuo Ruojun.

Zhai Zhe knew why Wu Sanrong came, he was not in a hurry to see Wu Sanrong, and summoned Li Hu first. Huguang has had a lot of things happen this year, and he is far less stable than Jiangnan, and he has not been so at ease there. Zuo Ruo is another idle person.

The first time Li Hu came to Nanjing, when he arrived in Nanjing, the king of Jin was not there, and he happened to go to see the majesty of the stone city and the prosperity of the Confucius Temple.

I heard that after the King of Jin returned to Nanjing, he did not dare to go out at will, and kept waiting in the inn.

Sure enough, not long after the time passed, two guards wearing the personal guard uniforms of the Jin Wangfu came to the inn to pass the word

Li Hu was secretly glad that he didn't expect King Jin to start serving so early.

The guards took him to an empty house in the palace of the King of Jin and left, leaving him alone. When he was about to arrive, another guard came to give an order, and Li Hu followed him to the depths of the Jin Palace.

Li Hu knew the majesty of the Jin Palace's mansion at the gate, but he was not afraid in his heart. The brave generals under Zuo Ruo's command will not be so easily frightened. Zuo Ruo also had staff members who could write and speak, he was illiterate, but he was sent to Nanjing to do this important thing.

Li Hu walked around, passed by a spacious school field, and saw a row of palaces towering in front of him.

The guards led him around the third row of palaces, and a young man in a scribe's uniform led him inside.

The two walked into a wide hall, and the scribe bent down and said, "Li Hu, the envoy of Huguang, brings"

This set of etiquette is a change in the Jin Dynasty after the implementation of the military restructuring.

Zhai Zhe listened to Liu Suifeng's construction, and no longer received foreign envoys and subordinates at will. Etiquette is the foundation of the country, and the etiquette that he did not pay so much attention to in the past has been admonished. In the Ming Dynasty, there is a difference between monarchs and ministers, between the top and bottom, between father and son, and all the differences are based on etiquette. The King of Jin was regarded as a corporal of courtesy and informality to a person, but he was regarded as disrespectful to everyone as such.

Li Hu knelt on the ground and said, "See the general"

Zhai Zhe's voice was very indifferent, and he asked, "How many years have you followed Zuo Ruo?" "Zuo Ruo has already sent a letter to the General's Mansion, but it is still not enough, so it seems that the idea of sending an envoy to Nanjing in person is quite strong.

Li Hu said: "The last general was recruited by General Zuo as a personal soldier in Shanxi"

"If Zuo ordered you to come to Nanjing, what did you do?"

Li Hu couldn't write, his speech was quite clever, and he said: "The Qing army began to besiege Hanzhong half a month ago, and the king of Zhenxi sent people to Xiangyang for help, General Zuo has found out that the garrison of Nanyang Mansion is empty, and he specially ordered me to ask for my life, and I am willing to lead the Xiangyang army to advance into the Central Plains and contain the Qing soldiers" He raised his head, showing a face of vicissitudes, and then said: "After capturing Xiangyang and rectifying the military system this year, the generals and soldiers in the army are high-spirited, just waiting for the general's order"

He is a general in the army, and his words are not abrupt, and can be regarded as the heart of the army.

This may be the reason why Zuo Ruo sent him to Nanjing

Zuo Ruo really can't wait

Having such subordinates is like a whip chasing after Zhai Zhe, sometimes it will make him forge ahead, and sometimes it will make him a little upset.

Zhai Zhe knew that the Northern Expedition affected the hearts of many people in the army. He was very strict with the control of the army, and after the armistice in Huguang, Zuo Ruo only had the power to hold on to Xiangyang, and did not have the authority to attack at will.

"If you go north to the Central Plains, can you take down Nanyang?" The clear expression in Zhai Zhe's words means not believing.

Li Hu made a generous statement and said: "The general has an order, and we will never give up."

Zhai Zhe was silent for a long time, and said: "Okay, I Xu Zuoruo sent troops to Henan to harass him, but if he is defeated, the military law will be ruthless."
