Chapter 500: It's still the Ming Dynasty

Two yellow flags and black flags resist the enemy in Shanxi.

The elite black flag attacked Tianjin and Shandong, which were controlled by the Ming Dynasty.

The first one to start was naturally Shanxi.

The Prince of Ming Dynasty was unacceptable, and the Chief Military Affairs Officer was also unacceptable! This was even more unacceptable.

So Li Zicheng gave the chasing spirit cavalry the dead order and directly crossed the border to pursue! If they couldn't chase people, they wouldn't have to go back.

But when the Dashun Jingqi received this order, they had no chance of successfully chasing.

They could only wander around the prefectures and counties on the edge of Shanxi, attack the two yellow flag garrisons and besiege the county towns, so as to make some achievements so that the Dashun court could calm Li Zicheng's anger and let them go back safely.

When the two yellow flags and the black flag troops arrived, they were pretending to attack the city outside the Daning County, Xizhou, Pingyang Prefecture.

When he saw the two armies, he fired his gun from afar and then retreated.

When he retreated, he also let go of people and animals who had been plundered and carried in Shanxi these days, and threw away some property along the way, making it difficult for the two yellow flags and the black flags to pursue.

The chapter of Gushan in the Yellow Banner Gushan Niuhulu Chen Tai led his troops to force him step by step, and he fought several small-scale battles on the way, but he could not win the number of hands, which allowed the elite cavalry of the Shun Army to gradually cross the Yellow River and leave Shanxi.

Chen Tai stayed at the Yellow River Ferry overnight and saw someone coming from the river the next day.

After inquiring about the army, it turned out that it was the envoy from Shunguo.

"You must not cross the river without the regent's order!"

Chen Tai first gave Zhu Youjian a memorial, saying that the defense of the Yellow River in Shanxi was slackened, so he asked the cavalry of Li to cross the river to invade the territory by boat, and asked him to come to take charge of the Yellow River defense. In addition, he drove the Shun Army away, so he naturally refused.

The messenger on the opposite side was so anxious.

Two important figures were kidnapped in one go. No matter which one, it would be even worse for the current situation in Dashun.

Emperor Dashun Li Zicheng was so angry that he couldn't get out of bed. He used to be in a good mood and could take two steps, but now he is really dying.

The Grand Secretary was captured and knew very well that Dashun's internal and military affairs. If he was used to attack Dashun, it would be a huge disaster.

Therefore, there are too many things that the messenger needs to do during this trip and inquire about.

"Let the messenger come over, and in addition, when replying, I said that I also intend to discuss with Shunguo about sending back his Grand Secretary Li Yan."

After Zhu Youjian received the news, he planned to appease Dashun, who might explode.

So when the envoy of Dashun rushed to the base where the regent of the Qing Dynasty Chaoyong regent gathered troops outside, he immediately found out that this was the Black Flag Wuerte who planned to move troops against the Ming Dynasty.

The messenger immediately felt great peace in his heart.

Even though he asked to see Wuerte later, he was rejected, he was not very panicked.

Zhu Youjian didn't have the time to see him, so he just hung it under supervision of the sticky rod.

The elite troops of the Three Thousand Firearms Camp and the 4,000 armored men under his subordinates have arrived at the Zhengding County Camp. The recruitment of troops in Zhengding Prefecture has been sufficient. Many Han people are receiving simple training, plus the Soren Camp.

Judging from the configuration of troops alone, this battle was not at all for the Ming army.

The Eight Banners were all frightened by it, and the flags outside the two yellow banners were in contact. If this army came towards them, they would immediately concentrate their forces to deal with it. They would be killed at any time and would have no power to fight back.

At this time, Zhu Youjian was also checking the information about them, as well as about Tianjin and Shandong Ming Army.

In front of him were several sets of equipment commonly used by the Ming army.

"I am so worried, so I'd like to send the orders to the banner owners such as Haoge, Luke Dehun, Shuose, etc., and let them send troops to join the army to fight against the Ming army in Shandong and Tianjin."

After seeing the movements of two blue flags, two red flags, and two white flags, Zhu Youjian chuckled and put down the note twice, and turned to look at the Ming army's military equipment and said with a smile.

Then, he stopped in front of a set of equipment that was obviously much newer than other Ming army's military equipment.

This is a set of red and blue rivet cotton armor, paired with a hat helmet, and has accessories such as ammunition belts, leather kettles, and dagger bones. But what attracted Zhu Youjian the most attention was a musket placed in it.

Shunwu Gun, inside the black flag, is called black gun.

"Is this really bought?"

"If you go back to the master, it was indeed bought with the sticky rod and Daming Zhen Martial Camp after it was launched."

Zhenwu Camp is the new army formed by Longwu.

"I still can't resist it, so I shouldn't use the people from Nanjing Jingying."

Zhu Youjian shook his head, not only regretful, but also felt alert.

If the Ming Dynasty's mortal enemy, the Qing Dynasty, could get this thing from the new army initiated and built by the emperor himself, it would be possible that this thing would have been sold out long ago.

It is impossible for missionaries not to covet.

"Let the Black Flag Navy who returned to Gaizhou Port drive to Tianjin."

There are many missionaries around Wang Chengen's factory. They even found Emperor Longwu and asked to open a church in the closed industrial area to preach. Although Longwu refused, he successfully opened one near the industrial area and guarded it. If they could not penetrate, they would let the Ming people help in penetration.

But facts prove that Nanjing Jingying and the Ming Longwu New Army, which were mixed with Beijing personnel, did not need to infiltrate.

People themselves open the hole.

Fortunately, the industrial zone in Nanjing is the real foundation. Even if the gun is leaked, the Ming Dynasty and Qing Dynasty are bound to be popularized and utilized first.

"No need to see it, take it all."

“Wait.”

Apart from this set of new military equipment, the other Ming army's military equipment has almost no changes from before. If you look closely at the quality of the military equipment, it is considered that Zhu Youjian has promoted the Ming army.

Like the military preparations, there is also the treatment of the Ming army.

The four towns became two towns, and the Ming Dynasty's military expenditure was reduced in principle, but since these two towns became "border troops", it was natural that they became gold-swalking beasts.

For the north to be stable, more staff and better equipment are necessary.

But before, the imperial court could not pay much money to the four towns, but now it is replaced by two towns, but it still can not pay much money.

40% of Huang Degong's soldiers were owed wages.

Gao Jie and Huang Fei were more than 60% under his command. Luo Yangxing, the former commander of the Jinyiwei, could not be integrated into the Jinyiwei afterwards, so he was still on the front line with the title of Commander. His superiors did not like him, and he was also relaxed in paying his subordinates, so he owed the most, and about 80% of them were owed.

In addition, there are many guerrillas and garrisons in Tianjin and Shandong, and now they are part of the border defense line. It is common for them to not see any money for a year or two.

The Ming Dynasty is still the same Ming Dynasty.

The changes brought about by Emperor Longwu in the past few years of his ascension to the Ming Dynasty were minimal. This is because of the sugar trade and the development of industrial zones that Nanjing City developed rapidly, the city scale expanded, and created the world's largest prosperous city.

He could not change the situation where he was the emperor in the city, and the situation was full of local emperors outside the city.

Thinking of this, Zhu Youjian took a deep breath, slapped on the table vigorously and shouted: "Hao Ya led 5,000 troops to attack Liaocheng from Handan, Pei Wu led 3,000 troops to attack Gucheng County, cut off Huang Degong's road to directly go south to reinforce Liaocheng! Buy time for Liaocheng to attack Liaocheng, Hao Ya! You can take all the thunder cannons in the army! Go down to Liaocheng quickly! Then go directly to Jinan Prefecture!"
