Wu Sangui said hard air, but he still sent a messenger to Nanjing City for help.

Wu Sanrong didn't give in, so he had to run hard again, who made him familiar with Nanjing.

From Sichuan to Nanjing, you can take the Yangtze River waterway, and the wooden boat goes down the river, a thousand miles a day.

The late rice in Jiangnan and Huguang has almost been purchased in Yujing, and the rice fields on both sides of the Yangtze River are full of dense rice forks, which looks very uncomfortable, so he spends most of the time hiding in the cabin on the road.

In early October, the wind had already blown to the south of the Yangtze River, and Wu Sanrong worked hard all the way to finally arrive in Nanjing.

It's just that he didn't expect that he arrived very unfortunately, King Jin went to Hangzhou to inspect the day before yesterday, not in Nanjing.

A person who has been an official in the Ming Dynasty is a person who can do things, he gave a gift to Liu Suifeng, the servant of the ministry, and after finding out the news, he was relieved to wait in Nanjing.

In comparison, the envoy of the Great Western Army, who had come to the court a few days ago, seemed too ignorant.

Zhai Zhe had already received the news that the Qing troops were attacking Sichuan, and Zhao Yucheng's layout in Jiangbei was very efficient. The soldiers and horses of the two blue flags had not yet left Shanxi, and he already knew that the Qing court regarded Wu Sangui as a target.

The soldiers and horses did not move, and the grain and grass went first. The army leaves countless trails before it is set out. The key is to find the right people to get the right news. Zhai Zhe also didn't know which Han officials Zhao Yucheng had rebelled against in Beijing, and he only wanted the result. A person's energy is limited, and the King of Jin of the Ming Dynasty has never been a person with a strong desire to control, otherwise the cabinet would have long since ceased to exist.

The rise of Xichuan is good news for Jiangnan.

Since Dolgon dared to mobilize heavy troops into Sichuan, he must have been on guard in the Central Plains and Jianghuai. After two years of torture with a blade in his throat, Zhai Zhe had the heart to enjoy the scenery of sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight.

It's not that he doesn't want to send troops, but Jiangnan is not ready to send troops.

King Jin's fleet was ordinary, but it was escorted by sailors in front and behind.

This time, Zhai Zhe went south to Hangzhou with 32 military generals, two generals, and four general soldiers, and the lowest rank was also a guerrilla general. So far, neither Feng Qin nor Li Zhi'an knew the purpose of Zhai Zhe's sudden summoning of them to the south.

Today's wind is strong, Zhai Zhe has been staying in the cabin and not coming out, and the two generals are sitting together.

Feng Qin is still as silent as ever, but Li Zhian has been compensating Zhai Zhe for speaking.

In the spring of this year, Feng Qin asked for orders to launch an offensive in Jianghuai, but Zhai Zhe refused, and since then, his sense of existence as the president of Jiangfang has been very low.

The fleet did not stop in Hangzhou, and after crossing the canal, it went up the Qiantang River and docked in Fuyang County.

The generals in the army all know what Fuyang is.

Zhao Pu, who had only been in office for three months, and the owners of the three weapons workshops were already waiting on the shore. Zhao Pu stood at the front, followed by Hu Guanghou, and the order of arrangement indicated their status.

Zhai Zhe and his entourage of more than 50 people went ashore, followed by the warship Sang and 300 personal guards.

The hosts came forward to greet and salute and say a few simple greetings. Zhai Zhe immediately stared at Hu Guanghou and asked, "Are things ready?" The people I have brought here today are your examiners. ”

Hu Guanghou stood up proudly and said: "Please watch the ceremony" The flint gun has been continuously improved by him, and has absorbed the advantages of Western firearms, and has been fully matured, and the problem of hitting the flint without ringing has also been solved.

The group did not enter Fuyang County, but went straight to the weapons factory in the mountains and forests by the Qiantang River.

Feng Qin and the others felt more and more mysterious.

The cold wind blew through the jungle and whirred, entering the mountain less than seven or eight miles away, and there were open posts and secret sentries every dozens of steps behind, and they were heavily guarded.

The guards here not only prevent outsiders from entering, but also prevent those inside from escaping.

Zhai Zhe did not go to the weapons workshop, as far as he knew, except for a few craftsmen with high skills and flexible brains in the research institute, the craftsmen working in the workshop were almost the same as prisoners.

They get paid a lot of money, but they can't find a place to spend their money except to bring it home to support their families. The newly recruited craftsmen of the three major weapons workshops have special residences in Fuyang County, and every half month, they can go home to reunite with their families. After 10 years of working in the weapons workshop, you can get rid of the status of an apprentice and come and go much more freely.

The group walked all the way to the mountain, and Hu Guanghou and Zhao Pu accompanied Zhai Zhe to tell him about the terrain and arrangements in various places.

After walking for about half an hour, it suddenly became clear that there was an open field between the two mountains, which was artificially filled like a school field for military training, and there were neat rows of earthen houses on both sides.

Hu Guanghou pointed in front of him and said: "This is the largest firearms test site in Fuyang, and artillery is also tested here

Zhai Zhe asked, "It's right here?" ”

Zhao Pu replied: "It's here"

He clapped his hands, and dozens of people in guard uniforms came over from the earthen houses to the east, carrying a dozen huge wooden boxes.

Those people walked ten steps in front of Zhai Zhe, put down the wooden box, and each pried open the lid. Each wooden box contains ten shiny birds.

Zhai Zhe beckoned the guards to bring a bird gun over, and then handed it to Feng Qin beside him, and asked, "Is there any difference now?" ”

Feng Qin loves to use firearms, he has designed countless firearms tactics, and he is also a firearms expert.

He picked up the bird gun and looked it up and down for a moment, his face was shocked, and he said, "It is possible to design the bird gun so exquisitely."

He asked the guards standing by for gunpowder and lead, loaded them with his hands and feet, raised his bird gun and pointed it in front of him, and then pulled the spring.

The loud "bang" immediately attracted the attention of the generals behind him.

Yuan Qizhou, Sun Zhijing and Zheng Zunqian all leaned over.

Zhai Zhe's face turned pale, and said: "This thing is called a flint gun" He waved his hand at Zhao Pu and ordered: "And ask the guards to try the guns, so that the generals can open their eyes"

In front of the earthen houses on both sides are guards, and they are also the testers of the Hu family's workshop. Whenever a new weapon is successfully developed, they are always the first to feel it and ask all kinds of questions.

A hundred guards stood in five rows, each holding a bird gun in his hand.

Zhao Pu gave an order, and the generals' ears were quickly filled with a roar. Five rows of bird guns are cast one after the other, with almost no gaps in between, and in the end it seems to be never-ending.

Feng Qin silently calculated in his heart.

The flint is cast twice as fast as the Vulcan Guns, and the Split Ignition is designed so that as long as it is not pouring rain, it will not affect the birds.

The test lasted for about half an hour, and Zhai Zhe raised his hand to signal the test gun to stop.

The generals who came today are no strangers to firearms, and Li Zhian exclaimed: "The sharp weapon of the country"

Feng Qin grabbed the bird gun in his hand, his eyes flashed with a blazing light, and said: "If you are equipped with a few pikemen, the flint spear can compete with the Qing cavalry in the plains." He only said that he could compete with the cavalry, but did not say that he would definitely be able to defeat the Qing cavalry.

Zhai Zhe said: "Since July, the three armory workshops no longer produce arquebuses, but have replaced them with flint guns" He asked as if deliberately elegant: "If I want to put flint guns into the battlefield, under what circumstances can I get the most shocking results?"

Feng Qin and Li Zhi'an said in unison: "Rainy season"

Jiangnan enters the rainy season from March, and light rain continues for several months. During this time, the Ming army could not use firearms, the Qing court could not use bows and arrows, and in comparison, the Ming army was more affected. Therefore, the Qing were very willing to fight with the Ming army in this season.

"I am ready to launch the Jiangbei offensive in the spring of next year, and there will be at least 10,000 flints by then."

King Jin's words made several generals extremely excited and looking forward to it.
