    When a crisis arose between the emperor and his ministers in the Manchu court, Hauge also led five thousand soldiers and horses to Jinzhou.

    At this time, the school ground in Jinzhou was very lively. The newly arrived Liaodong Supervisor Mr. Li was handing out armors and weapons to the soldiers on the school ground. Countless former Liaodong soldiers were lining up and looking eagerly at the hill piled up in the center of the school ground.  The weapons and armor are drooling.

    "Wang Erniu"

    "arrive!"

    "Zhou Dashun"

    "arrive"

    A soldier whose name was called came forward and received from the hands of the quartermaster the armor, helmet, black jacket, cowhide boots, waist knife, spear towel, iron kettle and other complete sets that they had long wanted to wear.

    Zu Dale led a group of generals to stand on the viewing platform and looked at the shimmering armor below. The smile on his face never broke.

    Smiling from ear to ear, he said to Zu Dachou beside him: "Second brother, the armor issued by the imperial court is really strong. I asked the craftsmen to estimate it. Each pair of armor weighs forty kilograms. The cost is tight.  Thirty taels of silver, don¡¯t even think about it if you don¡¯t have sixty taels of silver for the complete set, this time the court has spent a lot of money.¡±

    Zu Dazhu was still not satisfied. He reached out and scratched his hair randomly and said, "Humph, but there is one thing they didn't send out. It shows that the court is still on guard against us."

    "Second brother should be talking about fire blunderbuss, right?" Zu Dale sighed: "Inspector Li also told us about this. He said it was because of these fire blunderbuss Well,  No, according to the court¡¯s call, they should be called rifles. The production cost of these rifles is high and the output is not high, so we can only endure it until next year before shipping them."

    Zu Dachou snorted and said nothing. Although he was reckless, he was not stupid. If the court did not equip them with new rifles immediately, it would be to guard against them. But it is enough for them to know this kind of thing. To say  It would be boring to come out.

    On the viewing platform of the school ground, Li Yan, who was surrounded by a group of generals, squinted his eyes and watched as a soldier who was very happy came forward to receive armor, clothing, weapons and other items.  A mysterious smile appeared on his face.

    Seeing that Li Yan was in a good mood, Li Yuan stepped forward and asked: "Superintendent, since we have distributed armors, clothing and other items to the Liaodong Army, why don't we also distribute rifles? Does the Emperor have any intention to the Liaodong Army?"  Is the general still worried? But the general remembers that the emperor has even sold thousands of rifles to the Korean countries, so why can't the Liaodong garrison be able to issue them? "

    Li Yan smiled slightly, he had always maintained some respect for the legion commander who had been following the emperor for a long time.  He shook his head and said: "General Li, you can think that this officer is very pleased, but in fact it is not the case. The reason why we sell rifles to North Korea is because North Korea only uses white grain and real money to buy them, and they don't use them."  We are afraid that they will attack us with rifles, but what about the Liaodong armies? Did they buy them with money?"

    "Thisbut they are now our Dahua people!" Li Yuan was even more puzzled now.

    "You Li Yan sighed helplessly and explained in detail: "The reason why the emperor can sell rifles to North Korea is because the barrels of these rifles will be scrapped after only a few hundred rounds of bullets, and they have to  They have to buy from us, and whether it is guns or gunpowder, they have to buy it from us, Dahua.  This is a long-term business, and naturally we cannot let go of such a good thing.

    But the Liaodong armies are different, although they have bowed to His Majesty.  But loyalty is very worthy of scrutiny.  Besides, His Majesty has a saying that people will not cherish things that are too easy to obtain.  There are nearly 100,000 troops in the nine-sided armies. If they are all equipped with such sharp rifles, before we have complete control of the nine-sided armies, once someone has evil intentions, it will pose a great threat to us.  do you understand?  "

    After hearing Li Yan's explanation, Li Yuan suddenly realized, "OhI see, I understand. Your Majesty is going to put Wu Xiang and Zu Dashou to dry. Let them suffer."  Edges and corners. Let the soldiers of Liaodong get familiar with and accept our Dahua from the heart, and then they will issue rifles, right?"

    "Wellyou can be taught!"

    Li Yan smiled and nodded. Although what Li Yuan said was not entirely true, it was still close to ten.  Now Pang Gang's attitude towards Liaodong is like a hunter boiling an eagle.  We must first polish off the wildness of the Liaodong generals and sharpen their temperament.  And they will slowly seize the financial rights of the army. As long as the logistics of this army are controlled, then they will be powerless even if they want to do other things.

    Judging from the current situation, Li Yan is doing well.  After a large amount of military pay, food, and armor were distributed, most of the middle and lower-level officers in the army have developed a certain sense of identification with the Dahua court. If it takes a while, they will probably be able to control most of the Liaodong soldiers and generals.Come on.

    Thinking of this, Li Yan couldn't help but sigh. It would be great if he could give himself some more time and wait until he fully controls the Liaodong garrison before attacking Shengjing!  But Li Yan also knew that it was impossible. Now that the Great China had just been established, Guangxi, Guizhou, Yunnan, Lingnan, Sichuan and many other places had not yet been pacified. It was impossible for the emperor to have so much time to slowly deal with the Liaodong generals.  Since time waits for no one, he can only use the simplest and most direct method.

    But Li Yan didn't expect that just when he was planning to march to Shengjing, a troop of troops coming from the direction of Shengjing had quietly approached Jinzhou less than two hundred miles away from Jinzhou.  There is a small mountain range, which people call Lushan. Lushan covers an area of ??about fifty miles and is surrounded by woods. Due to the frequent confrontations between the Ming and Qing Dynasties in the past few years, this place has become inaccessible, so  There are many wild animals here and the jungle is dense.

    It was already approaching dusk, and a Qing army came from the north. This Qing army was all cavalry. The armors on each knight were all painted blue, with thick bronze nails exposed on the outside, and there were also  The thick cotton armor was padded and covered with iron armor, which made the knight on the horse look taller and taller.  Even an inexperienced person can see that this well-equipped cavalry must be an elite force.

    Hauge is in this team. At this time, Hauge is also wearing a blue armor, with thick iron armor on the outside and several layers of fine silk on the inside. Whether it is armor or silk, it has good defense.  Sex, this armor is extremely luxurious.

    Hauge was riding on a good yellow horse. When he saw that it was getting late, he turned around and said to the general behind him: "Come here, please tell me, my general, that it is already getting late. The whole army should dismount and set up camp."

    "Cha!"

    Someone immediately responded and left. Soon, the whole army dismounted, unsaddled the horses, and started feeding the horses, carrying water, and collecting firewood. Everything was so orderly.

    After a while, Fan Wencheng, who came with the army, dared to come. He panted and said to Hauge: "Prince Su, I am late, I hope you will forgive me."

    "Haha Seeing Fan Wencheng out of breath, Hauge and the generals around him burst out laughing. Hauge pointed his riding crop at Fan Wencheng and said with a smile: "Scholar Fan, I have already told you that you  Just stay in Shengjing and be your bachelor, why bother following this king to endure this hardship?  War is not as fun as you Han people say in the book, it is so deadly.  "

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????OUT out of Fan Wencheng's poor physical condition, always behind during the march, if not for the care of a few soldiers accompanying him, I am afraid he would have been dumped somewhere long ago.  Therefore, Fan Wencheng was often teased by Hauge.

    Hearing Hauge's contemptuous laughter, Fan Wencheng still said stubbornly: "I understand Prince Su's good intentions. Since I have been entrusted by the emperor, I naturally have to complete the errands assigned by the emperor. Otherwise, I will die without the shame to see my master.  "

    Seeing Fan Wencheng's loyal look, the generals were embarrassed to say anything. Only Hauge muttered angrily: "Huh, my father hasn't agreed to accept you as a slave yet. Don't be a slave."  You can¡¯t stop calling yourself.¡±

    Fan Wencheng said firmly: "No matter whether the emperor agrees or not, from the day he stepped into Liaodong more than ten years ago, the slave has been the emperor's servant."

    Well, after hearing what Fan Wencheng said, Hauge was speechless. Although he hated Fan Wencheng, he always felt that it was because of his confusion that his father trusted the Han people so much and read many Han people's books. But  He had never doubted Fan Wencheng's loyalty to his father and the Qing Dynasty.

    Hauge stopped talking, but Fan Wencheng started to chatter again, "Prince Su, please forgive me for talking too much. This place is already close to Jinzhou. Starting from tomorrow, we should send more scouts to extend the search distance."  Fifty miles, so that even if we encounter a large group of Han soldiers and horses, we can arrange it calmly."

    "You old man, you are really verbose."

    Hauge was a little speechless. Fan Wencheng kept nagging him all the way here, which almost made his ears scratched, but he was always angry with the old man.

    In desperation, Hauge had no choice but to say to the generals around him: "Did you all hear that? Tomorrow we will spread the detection posts fifty miles more!"

    "Cha!"

    Just when Hauge and the others were burying pots to make rice, next to an inconspicuous hill less than two miles away from the Qing army, a brass-colored telescope was pointing at them, and a pair of eyes  Just behind the telescope, he carefully observed this army.

    A young Ye Bushou frowned and put away his telescope, turned around and whispered: "There are about five thousand Qing soldiers coming, all of whom are Tatar vests. It seems that they are the elite of the Tatars."?Immediately send two people back to report the situation to the supervisor To be continued.  If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes.
