Chongzhen fifteen years

Outside the city of Luoyang

Luoyang is the ancient capital of many dynasties, with a long history, and is the heart of the Central Plains, with a very large population. Although in this era, the strength of the Central Plains has greatly declined, which is far worse than the era when those who won the Central Plains won the world, but it is also a relatively important place.

And today, in a deafening explosion, Luoyang City was broken!

Zhu Yuanzhang invented the cave siege method without a teacher, that is, to find a coffin, fill it with gunpowder, and then put the coffin under the city wall and finally detonate!

Two hundred years later, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom used this method to conquer dozens of cities in the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and it was extremely useful. And today Zhu Yuanzhang used this method for the first time, and he succeeded.

Standing in the Fuwang Mansion in Luoyang City, Zhu Yuanzhang recalled the struggle of the past fifteen years, which was not easy, not easy.

In the spring of the first year of Chongzhen, he had to kidnap the governor and leave the country.

In the second year of Chongzhen, his team expanded to 1,000 people, all of whom were capable horse thieves, very disciplined, and extremely strong in combat, and made a name for themselves in the entire grassland.

This was followed by several years of grassland wars, in which Zhu Yuanzhang fought with Lin Dan Khan, fought with Houjin, and sometimes fought with the Ming army.

When the time came to the seventh year of Chongzhen, Zhu Yuanzhang was already a big warlord with 8,000 iron cavalry, and he entered the customs this year.

He broke the border towns, occupied Shaanxi, and began his journey to Tuntian.

And then all the pants he paid for were gone!

The foundation of the land must be there, otherwise there will be no way to farm, it is precisely because of this truth that Zhu Yuanzhang has such a great interest in entering the customs.

It is necessary to occupy at least one province in the Guannai, so that you can cultivate real henchmen, have a complete talent training system, and truly make your subordinates loyal to you.

Otherwise, even if one defeat is lost, the eight thousand iron horsemen may disappear. It's not charisma that can be stopped, that's how important the foundation is.

So Zhu Yuanzhang entered the customs and occupied Shaanxi, that is, the place of Guanzhong in ancient times.

In the Qin and Han dynasties, Guanzhong was the foundation of the real king.

However, with the continuous intensification of soil erosion, the Sui and Tang dynasties were regarded as the last glory of the land of Guanzhong.

If there is a choice, of course Zhu Yuanzhang does not want to occupy Shaanxi, but he has no choice. Even if he occupies a poor place like Shaanxi, he has fought five wars with the Ming Dynasty in three years with a scale of more than 10,000 people, so he can be regarded as a real foothold.

From then on, Zhu Yuanzhang worked hard to farm in Shaanxi and continued to rob the Mongolian tribes in the steppe.

The foundation is there, but natural disasters continue.

Zhu Yuanzhang worked hard to cultivate the fields for ten years, and only then did he train 200,000 soldiers. This is under the premise that all the fields established in Shaanxi are collected by him and distributed to the soldiers.

In short, the whole of Shaanxi was militarized by Zhu Yuanzhang's mansion!

No civil officials here!

There are not so many yamen here!

Even business practices are suppressed to the extreme!

Here's a hole!

Only government soldiers can be officials here!

If there was a choice, if natural disasters were not so frequent, if the literati were willing to cooperate a little, Zhu Yuanzhang would not do it, but he had no choice!

And this year is the day when Zhu Yuanzhang left Guanzhong and competed for world dominance!

The fighting desire and combat effectiveness of the first generation of government soldiers are powerful in all directions!

They have a tough personality and dare not run away even if the battle situation is unfavorable!

The government soldiers fled, and the whole family was implicated!

The family's land will be taken back by Zhu Yuanzhang, and the family may even be reduced to slaves, and there is a family behind them!

Until the whole army retreats, the government soldiers will not retreat!

If the casualty rate of the average army is 5 percent or 10 percent, then these tough government soldiers can admit a casualty rate of 5 percent or even 20 percent.

With tenacious will, strong personal combat ability, and strong discipline and obedience ability, these first generation of government soldiers are simply invincible in the world in this era!

So after leaving Guanzhong, Luoyang City was easily beaten down by Zhu Yuanzhang.

And at this moment, there is a super fat man in front of Zhu Yuanzhang, this guy has white and delicate skin like a girl, he is very well maintained, his whole body is full of fat, and the whole person will shake when he takes a step.

Slap it down, it's all fat!

"You are the Blessed King?"

"Such a blessed king?"

Is the world that I fought down back then that caused you calamity?

Shameless descendants!

After thinking about it, Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand: "Drag it out, cut it!"

......

Soon, the news that the Marquis of Qin proclaimed himself the Duke of Qin, led his troops out of Guanzhong, captured Luoyang and beheaded King Fu spread throughout the world.

Nanjing, Jiangnan Daying!

Of course, the Jiangnan camp was made by this Confucian traveler, it doesn't matter what his original name was, his name is Gu Qing in this life.

After Gu Qing crossed, he took the path of the imperial examination, was admitted to the Juren, was admitted to the Jinshi, and then after a year of Hanlin gilding, he returned to his hometown and devoted himself to writing.

At the same time as writing the book, he also held a training course, and for the first time systematically put forward the concepts of real questions, mock papers, mock exams, etc., and put them into practice.

Instant success!

Then he put forward the tactics of the sea of questions, began to publish books, and showed off to simulate the set of volumes, originally his deduction method, inductive method, is clever, but the influence is not as great as he imagined.

But when he put forward this series of exam-related concepts, his reputation really rose, and his published Xiucai exam instructions were repeatedly printed tens of millions of copies!

Tsk, tens of millions of physical books have been sold, which is a great writer in the 21st century.

In this era, Gu Qing's reputation has risen to the sky. In the eyes of ordinary readers, he has directly become a figure comparable to Zhu Xi and Wang Yangming.

There are even many clever speculators who come to his house thousands of miles away, worship him as a teacher, and sincerely become his disciples.

The talents admired Gu Qing in their hearts, and the scholars were shocked by the deduction and induction methods proposed by Gu Qing, plus Gu Qing was not an official, so the court was not very jealous of him.

Hope!

This is what Gu Qing did ten years before Chongzhen, when Chongzhen was ten years old, Li Zicheng was driven away by Zhu Yuanzhang, and he failed repeatedly in the north, so he could only come over in advance to trouble the south.

After the emergence of Zhu Yuanzhang, the Marquis of Qin, the separatist party, the imperial court's troops were even more insufficient. After resisting, Jin has already wasted the power of nine bulls and two tigers, and he is not able to pacify those rogues who go to the south, but the people in the south are also fate!

The gentry in the south don't want to die either, so what should they do?

After Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong and others almost captured Nanjing City, Gu Qing proposed a method, group training!

In ancient times, the group drills were all local heroes or big families, so the group exercises they held often ended up becoming the gravediggers of the dynasty.

But Gu Qing proposed to let the readers hold a group practice!

Let the readers take the relationship between classmates, fellow villagers, teachers, and disciples as the core to form a group practice. In this kind of regimental training, the grass-roots officers are all literate readers, and the low-level soldiers are simple people in the countryside.

It looks very reliable, and it can be regarded as politically strong!

Even if he knew that there were pitfalls in this group training, Chongzhen couldn't care so much.

Either hold a group exercise, or watch Zhang Xianzhong and Li Zicheng steal the south, it's too difficult!

This is actually a change caused by Zhu Yuanzhang, he has restrained all the main forces that the imperial court can fight in the north, and if he is not eliminated for a day, the imperial court will not dare to make a big move for a day.

When Chongzhen's holy decree came down, Shilin's evaluation of Chongzhen soared instantly, and it once again returned to the level of the first year of Chongzhen, and everyone praised the Son of Heaven.

The readers are in charge!

Take charge of the troops directly!

Gu Qing ascended to the top and shouted, and the ringers gathered!

After March, he had a team of 3,000 men.

No one is optimistic about this group training!

But Gu Qing took this regiment to practice, cleaning up the mountain bandits and water bandits all the way, and a year later, the number of this regiment training increased to 10,000, and they all saw blood, and the war began.

This battle group trained 10,000 soldiers, and Zhang Xianzhong's displaced people were 20,000.

Win!

In the second battle, the regiment trained 9,000 soldiers and 30,000 displaced people, and won!

In the third battle, 9,000 regimental training and 30,000 displaced people, won!

......

In the sixth battle, there were 7,000 regimental training and 20,000 displaced people, but all of them were the elite of the old battalion.

Lost!

Gu Qing jumped into the river!

Gu Qing was scooped up!

At the end of the eleventh year of Chongzhen, Gu Qing organized a group exercise for the second time.

This time, the number of group training reached 30,000!

In the autumn of the twelfth year of Chongzhen, Zhang Xianzhong's main force was disabled by Gu Qing, Li Zicheng came to help, and Gu Qing was defeated and defeated.

Gu Qing jumped into the river again!

Before jumping into the river, he also gave Chongzhen a letter to the effect that he had lived up to the expectations of the Son of Heaven and the expectations of the scholars, and he was really damned!

And then he was fished up again!

In the spring of the thirteenth year of Chongzhen, Gu Qing organized 50,000 regimental exercises and made a comeback.

In the autumn of the thirteenth year, a big defeat!

Gu Qing jumped into the river for the third time!

Before I jumped this time, I was stopped by my fellow disciples who were prepared!

In the spring of the fourteenth year, Gu Qing organized 70,000 group exercises.

In the autumn of the fourteenth year, after a big battle, Zhang Xianzhong was beheaded, Li Zicheng also suffered heavy losses, and the regimental training army also suffered heavy losses, which was a draw.

In the spring of fifteen years, Gu Qing came again, and this time he organized a full 100,000 regiments to train an army!

Since Gu Qing is a native of Changsha, the soldiers call the regimental training under Gu Qing the Hunan Army!

Feng Shui turns around, this time it is Gu Qing's turn to chase Li Zicheng and fight!

"Now that regimental exercises are being held in various places, the threat of thieves is almost none, and the Zhu thieves are rampant, and they openly occupy Luoyang, and the commander will lead the Hunan army to attack Luoyang from now on. ”

"Whatever the big marshal says, we will do!"

"Whatever the teacher says, we will do!"

"Yes, isn't it the Zhu thief? How many people does he have?

In the midst of praise, Gu Qing took 100,000 Hunan troops and the expectations of his fathers and fellow villagers to Luoyang City.

Under the city of Luoyang, Zhu Yuanzhang sent 80,000 soldiers.

Eighty thousand against one hundred thousand!

Government soldiers against Hunan army!

The soldiers who took advantage of a hole were against the army of the Shangxiang Party and the Men.

The government soldiers, one of the pinnacles of cold weapons in the classical era, were all literate in dealing with grass-roots officers, and had fought many battles and fought a quasi-modern army with experience.

There were many people who cared about this battle, and even Peng Bing, who was far away in Fujian and was known as the king of Fujian, constantly sent out secret lines to collect information about this battle.

Of course, the king of Fujian was not sealed by the imperial court, but the name of Peng Bing by the locals of Fujian.

In the first year of Chongzhen, Peng Bing took in 100 orphans, and the salt experiment was successful this year, coupled with the only son in the family, so Peng Bing's move to take in orphans was not blocked.

In the second year of Chongzhen, Peng Bing took in 300 orphans.

......

In the seventh year of Chongzhen, the first batch of adopted orphans officially graduated, and they learned the skills of cutting people for seven years, which finally came in handy.

Based on these 100 people, Peng Bing organized an army of 1,000 people, with this army of 1,000 people as the core, plus 10,000 wall grass, Peng Bing began to fight with the Zheng family.

In the first year, there were more defeats and fewer victories.

But Peng Bing has been insisting, especially those gentry who don't like Zheng Zilong, and even took the initiative to give Peng Bing silver, money, food, and even weapons and gunpowder.

In the second year, the second batch of 300 orphans graduated, Peng Bing organized an army of 3,000 in an instant, and this year was still more defeated than victorious, but as long as he did not meet the main army of the Zheng family, the rest of the situation was won by Peng Bing.

In the third year, five or five open!

In the fourth year, there are more wins and fewer defeats!

In the fifth year, that is, in the eleventh year of Chongzhen, Zheng Zilong was killed, the Zheng family army became history, and the era of King Peng Long had completely arrived!

It is said that this dragon king also has two magical powers, one is to call the wind and rain, and the other is to disinfect the bath, the former everyone still knows what it means, but what the latter does has always been a mystery.

In the eleventh year of Chongzhen, on the basis of the Zheng family, Peng Bing continued to explore Yizhou Island.

Even if the mortality rate was once as high as 30%, the most important thing in Daming today is the people who are about to starve to death.

In the era of Zheng Zilong, if you want to trade overseas, you need to pay silver.

In the era of King Peng Long, only the population was needed.

Without counting deaths, the reclamation of Yizhou Island is actually quite fast.

In the fifteenth year of Chongzhen, there were 5 million acres of land and 600,000 people on Yizhou Island.

The whole of Southeast Asia was sacked by King Peng Long!

Some small countries were directly destroyed by him.

Even Annan and other countries have to pay protection fees every year and cede ports to him.

Today, Peng Longwang is a real giant, but also a real dragon king, the number of navies under his command is as many as 200,000, there are countless cannons and huge ships, and the flintlock pistol technology is the most advanced in the whole world.

The number of grassroots officers is endless!

If Zhu Yuanzhang's army is the pinnacle of the old era, then Gu Qing's Hunan army has a trace of the prototype of a modern army, and every person who reads is literate and understands why he is fighting, this is the advantage of the Hunan army.

Peng Bing's army is a real modern army, both in terms of equipment and personnel quality.

"The decisive battle of Luoyang, what do you think?"

"Father-in-law, the child feels that this battle should be won by Duke Qin. ”

"What do you think?"

"Father-in-law, it doesn't matter who wins or loses in this battle, as long as we make a move, whether it is the Hunan army or the Qin army, it is just a chicken and a dog. ”

"Xuan'er, what do you think?"

"Father-in-law, it's been fifteen years! It's been fifteen years since my father-in-law adopted the child, and the accumulation of these fifteen years is enough for my father-in-law to push the world!"

"Huang'er, what about you?"

"Father-in-law, let's raise troops, the court is unreasonable, the Son of Heaven is mediocre, the officials are incompetent, and the people are not able to make a living, only the father-in-law is the one who can really make the people live and work in peace and contentment. ”

"Father, we have the largest and most capable army. ”

"Father-in-law, we have the most advanced artillery and flintlock pistols, and everyone is equal under the artillery, no matter what kind of government soldiers and Hunan troops it is, it is all a one-shot thing!"

"Father-in-law, times have changed......"

"Okay, pass on my order, start the second-level mobilization, and prepare for the first-level mobilization at any time!"
