Daming: I, the emperor who trains the carpenter

Chapter 292 Nurhachi Military Parade - Boom!

If Zhang Yan gave birth in the palace, it should be quite safe now.

All the imperial physicians in the palace, Basic Mountain, were replaced by barefoot doctors.

The eunuchs were all given a share of the land by the dog emperor, and some eunuchs who had real power, the dog emperor also gave an extra amount of money to support them.

The guards are basically all guards from Yongding County.

Among other things, the palace problem is basically solved.

The possibility of this situation happening again is not great, but it still takes some effort to communicate with Eunuch Wei, so that Zhu Youxiao's child can be born safely.

"Congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the emperor!" Zhang Haogu looked at the dog emperor Zhu Youxiao with a smile.

Zhu Youxiao was also excited, and quickly said: "I didn't expect it, haha, my child will come out at this time, master, master, tell me, what is the name of my child?"

"emperor!"

Zhang Haogu thought for a while, and said: "The emperor's heir should be the character of kindness, and the prince should also be the five elements of fire!"

"How about calling Zhu Ciran?" Zhu Youxiao said with a smile.

"Good name!" Zhang Haogu said with a smile: "The name given by the emperor is really good!"

Zhu Youxiao laughed, but suddenly said: "Yes, master, you haven't married a wife yet, is Qiqi bad?"

"It's not bad!"

Zhang Haogu said helplessly; "It's just that I'm too young, but I think it's better to be older!"

"Hey, when the queen married me, she was only 14 years old. Now Qiqi is 14 years old. It's better to be early, master. I like this girl very much!" Zhu Youxiao is in a very good mood now: "Qiqi has been three years, and the master has taken good care of her. I think Qiqi also likes the master!"

"In a few years, let's wait for her to be older, at least seventeen or eighteen years old!" Zhang Haogu smiled and said, "Your Majesty, at that time, I'm still waiting for the emperor to give me a marriage!"

"Alright alright!"

Zhu Youxiao nodded and said, "I will definitely give you a marriage when the time comes!"

"Your Majesty, to be honest, I don't worry much about my life-long affairs. Right now, my mind is on Liaodong!" Zhang Haogu said, "I just don't know what's going on in Liaodong now!"

"Liaodong?"

Zhu Youxiao was slightly taken aback, and said: "That's right, I don't know if this Fan Yongdou sent the Shenwei Invincible General Cannon over there. How long has it been, more than three months?"

Zhang Haogu nodded: "At present, there is no news from Liaodong. I thought it would be better to wait. During the whole time, I arranged for Cui Chengxiu to go to Shanxi and let him select some people. To liquidate Shanxi merchants, some time ago, he said that Fan Yongdou and his group are not in Shanxi, but they are here in Jiannu!"

"After all, the Shenwei Invincible General Cannon is a bit heavy. It should be a waste of time to transport it from the capital to Shanxi quietly, and to find a way to transport it from Shanxi to Jiannu!"

Zhu Youxiao pondered for a while, and said with a smile: "Now that the queen is pregnant with the emperor's heir, I think that this mighty and invincible general cannon should have fallen into the hands of the old Jiannu, Nurhachi. Hmph, if it's true If it explodes, it can be regarded as a great gift from the heavens to the real emperor's heir!"

Zhang Haogu couldn't help but smile too.

I just don't know what's going on in Liaodong now.

Unfortunately, there is no live broadcast this year.

辽东
It is quite difficult to transport this mighty invincible general cannon secretly.

After all, these are a total of thirty Shenwei Invincible General Cannons, each of which weighs more than one ton. It is definitely not an easy task to transport, especially, it is first transported from the capital to Shanxi, and then , and then transported from Shanxi to Liaodong.

In the middle, in fact, it still had to go through the Mongolian defense zone. During the transportation process, there was another heavy rain on the Mongolian side, which made the ground muddy and the transportation became more and more difficult.

It is worth mentioning that the Shanxi merchants still exerted their spirit of not being afraid of hardship and tiredness, pushing the carriage forward in the muddy grassland.

There is no way, the Jurchen gave too much.

A cannon is 5 taels of gold.

Thirty cannons, that is 150 million taels of gold.

What kind of figure is this?
Jurchens are so rich, on the one hand, it is true that they have looted the people of Liaodong Daming, how much they have plundered after entering the customs, but there is another more important reason.

There are mines in Liaodong.

Heilongjiang Province, known as "three thousand miles of rivers and mountains bordered with gold", is rich in gold reserves, and the placer gold reserves can be said to be the first in the country. Gaohuai discovered a large number of gold mines in Liaodong.

Gao Huai belongs to that kind of waste. After discovering a gold mine, you need to invest manpower and material resources to mine a gold mine. This requires investment. It is not as cost-effective as direct robbery. Relying on Wanli's support, he carried out bone-sucking exploitation in Liaodong, claiming: "There is no need for mines, no need for taxation, folks are all mines, and officials, farmers and workers are all taxpayers."

Although this slogan is absurd, Gao Huai really did it.

Then, it turns out that there are still a large number of wealthy households in Liaoyang City. After Gaohuai's sustainable depletion of fisheries, these wealthy households either died or fled, escaped or became poor, and none of them were spared.The poor people are even more "thousands of sufferings, and they can't tell them all." The folk song of Liaodong goes to "the people of Liao have no brains, and they all gouge them out; the people of Liao have no marrow, and they all suck them out."

The most embarrassing thing is that Gao Huai confiscated hundreds of thousands of silver, but only over 5000 taels were handed over to Wanli, and most of the people's money went into his own pocket.

It is true that there is no great virtue, these gold mines finally fell into the hands of Nurhachi completely. At the beginning, Nurhachi did not notice this situation. It was the future Qing Taizong Huang Taiji who noticed these gold mines. Under the auspices of the Jurchens to mine gold mines.

In addition, the Jurchens plundered a large number of slaves, and these people were also assigned to gold mines to mine gold. Huang Taiji relied on his own means to find Shanxi merchants to buy what he needed.

However, at present, Nurhachi still has not discovered the largest gold mine, that is, the Jiapigou gold mine, which will not be discovered until the end of the Qing Dynasty, thus forming a "gold rush".

Although the current economic situation of Houjin is also very bad, but there is no shortage of gold, what is lacking is food, tea, these abundant materials, if gold cannot be exchanged for materials, and cannot be eaten as food, then this gold is waste.

There is gold in Liaodong, and Shanxi merchants can get food and all the materials that Liaodong lacks.

perfect!

Although Shanxi merchants are also doing business for Liaodong, they are proper traitors.

However, the Jurchens still have to spend a lot of money to buy these traitors.

No money, no money who will work for you.

Even if you are a traitor, you still need to make money.

Among Nurhachi's many sons, Huang Taiji was an outlier. He was truly aware of the role of gold mines, and he quickly contacted Shanxi merchants.

Especially last year, he discovered the secret of sweet potatoes for the first time, and tried every means to get a large amount of sweet potato seeds from Daming.

It is no exaggeration to say that Huang Taiji has already focused on Zhang Haogu, analyzing Zhang Haogu's policies in Daming all the time.

Although there was still no military confrontation between the two sides, Huang Taiji was keenly aware that Zhang Haogu would definitely be a serious threat to Liaodong in the future.

However, Huang Taiji is not in a hurry. Although there are many problems within the Ming Dynasty, there are also problems within Liaodong, especially his father Nurhachi. , Inappropriate governance policies; Dividing land and occupying houses, checking grain;

This series of coquettish operations has seriously damaged Liaodong's production in fact, and Liaodong's interior is also very unstable.

After untold hardships, just as Zhang Haogu was tossing the princes of Daming to the ground, the thirty Shenwei Invincible General Cannons finally arrived in Shenyang.

"This is the Shenwei Invincible General Cannon!" Huang Taiji was the first to come out to check these cannons.

"Hey, Si Baylor, why did you come in person?" Fan Yongdou said with a smile; "This is the Shenwei Invincible General Cannon. There are thirty guns in total. The power is astonishing. Si Baylor, do you want to come and check it out!"

"Okay!" Huang Taiji nodded: "I'll go invite Father Khan!"

I have to say that in Zhang Haogu's eyes, this mighty invincible general cannon is just that. It has a short range and low power, and it is quite effective in field battles. Not enough to watch.

However, in the eyes of people of this era, that is two words - shock.

Since last year, after the war between the Jurchens and the Ming army, the Jurchens have suffered a lot from this mighty invincible general cannon, and Huang Taiji is thinking about this mighty invincible general cannon.

He even convinced his father Nurhachi that he must get this mighty and invincible general cannon.

Now, seeing this mighty and invincible general cannon, Huang Taiji felt as if he had seen the goddess he had dreamed of, and then began to test fire the cannon.

Fortunately, when this cannon was first designed, in order to fool the Jurchens, it would definitely cause problems if it couldn't come up.

After the shell exploded, Huang Taiji was also severely shocked.

When Nurhachi came to review, he was also shocked. It has to be said that when the thirty mighty invincible generals fired, the scene was really shocking.

"Father Khan!"

Huang Taiji quickly said: "Minggou's super powerful invincible general cannon is really powerful. Now that our Dajin has this super powerful and invincible general cannon, in the future we will definitely be able to add wings to a tiger and be invincible!"

Nurhachi laughed loudly: "That's right, that's right, Minggou's people are all bad, but Minggou's cannon is really powerful!"

Huang Taiji said on the side: "Father Khan, I heard that the dog once designed a military exercise in the capital to show the power of the invincible general's cannon. Now, I, Da Jin, can do the same!"

"Oh?" Nurhachi was slightly taken aback, looked at Huang Taiji and said, "Xueming dog!"

"Father Khan, the Jurchen tribes are somewhat dissatisfied with Father Khan. Some time ago, we went to war with the Ming army, and the Ming army took out this mighty and invincible general cannon, which really caused us a lot of losses. My son I actually thought that now that we have this mighty invincible general cannon in our hands, it is time to show our strength!"

Huang Taiji said quickly: "Father Khan, I just want to show the strength of my great gold elite, and I want to make other tribes dare not fight against us!"

Nurhachi pondered for a while, then nodded and said, "My son is right, so let's do it!"

Huang Taiji nodded quickly: "Father Khan, if that's the case, then let my son arrange it!"

Nurhachi nodded again: "Okay!"

Among Nurhachi's many sons and nephews, Daishan belonged to elementary school culture, and Huang Taiji was better to belong to junior high school culture, and many of Nurhachi's government affairs were also handled by Huang Taiji.

However, what makes Nurhachi a little dissatisfied is that Huang Taiji has a good relationship with some Han Confucians, and he often asks them some questions. His son is so simple, but don't be taught by these Han Confucians. These Han Confucians Speaking of it, it's a bit of a shame, and I humiliate them again and again, but they can still be happy?
"Mr. Fan!" Huang Taiji cupped his hands at Fan Yongdou and said with a smile.

"Si Bei Le, don't dare to do it, don't dare to do it, don't dare to do it!" Fan Yongdou said with a smile: "What orders does Master Baylor have?"

"The power of this invincible general's cannon is pretty good, but it's still far from enough!" Huang Taiji said slowly, "I wonder if Mr. Fan can get some craftsmen from the capital!"

The cannon will be scrapped for you at some point in the future.

However, if the cannon-casting craftsmen came to him, then everything would be different, and Huang Taiji could produce cannons by himself without any scruples.

What did the master of the Han people teach himself?
It is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish!

It is not enough to get this cannon, what Huang Taiji wants is to be able to produce it himself.

"Lord Belle!"

Fan Yongdou said helplessly: "It's not easy for these craftsmen to come out. Daming's dog officials are still very strict in defense. None of my people can get in. Even if they do, I don't know who is the real craftsman!"

Huang Taiji frowned, and Fan Yongdou said: "However, Lord Belle, I can still give it a try. Now that I have dragged this Great Ming cabinet scholar into trouble, it is not impossible to find a way in the future, but these Ming The dog officials in the dynasty are all desperate for money!"

"It doesn't matter, what Mr. Fan wants, just ask!" Huang Taiji said lightly: "We have white mountains and black waters, and the most important thing is gold. As long as you can get craftsmen, I will give you as much as you want!"

Fan Yongdou's eyes immediately showed a bit of greed, and then he quickly said: "Master Baylor, don't worry, I will definitely try my best to get you these craftsmen!"

There was some approval in Huang Taiji's eyes: "Then leave it to Mr. Fan!"

The entire Liaodong Jurchen can be roughly divided into three parts, Jianzhou Jurchen, Haixi Jurchen and Savage Jurchen.Among them, the Jianzhou Jurchen is further divided into eight divisions, namely five Manchurian divisions and three Changbai Mountain divisions; the Haixi Jurchen divisions are further divided into four divisions, collectively known as the Hulun Four divisions; the Savage Jurchen divisions are more loose, and there are three relatively large divisions.

Today, although all the Jurchens are under the control of Nurhachi, each Jurchen has different thoughts. This is only the unity of force. More often, these Jurchens have their own little ninety-nine. .

Especially in the third year of Tianqi, under the instigation of Yuan Keli, the later Jin general Liu Xingzuo also rebelled and surrendered to Ming Dynasty, which really affected Nurhachi's reputation.

You know, Liu Xingzuo can be regarded as Nurhachi's most trusted Han people, and none of them, coupled with the influence of Shenwei Invincible General Cannon, also made the Jurchen tribes think about it. It seems, maybe, maybe probably, I can still Returning to Daming's warm embrace.

Nurhachi joined the army, and everyone's life was not as good as it was. On the contrary, Daming closed the border market, and tea, ironware, and some daily necessities were all gone.

When the wind is going smoothly, everyone is still very willing to unite with you, Nurhachi, but once the wind is not so smooth, it is inevitable that there will be some small thoughts.

This time, Nurhachi will have a military parade. According to Huang Taiji's meaning, it is to show the mighty and invincible general cannon to deter the Jurchen tribes, and to show the strength of the Eight Banners.

This is obviously Zhang Haogu who learned from it. He conducted military exercises to deter the frontier army, the Donglin Party, and the nobles, and this idea was quickly learned by Huang Taiji.

In fact, Huang Taiji still wants to learn Zhang Haogu's land division strategy and farm strategy to unite people's hearts. However, it is a pity that the current Huang Taiji is not a big man. If he wants to learn, Nurhachi is not allowed.

boom!boom!boom!boom!
Seeing the thunder on the flat ground, every Jurchen tribe was stunned and couldn't believe their eyes.

This power is too great!

Many people are already showing fear.

Nurhachi also stroked his beard and laughed loudly, but he couldn't help but think in his heart: "Hmph, these dog officials of Ming Dynasty!"

At this moment, a man stood up from the crowd and said loudly: "Father, the child is not talented, I would like to test the gun myself!"

Nurhachi glanced at it, and it was Jierhalang who nodded: "Okay, you go!"

This Jierhalang is the sixth son of Nurhachi's elder brother Shuerhaqi and Nurhachi's nephew.He lived in the palace since he was a child and was raised by Nurhachi, so he has a very good relationship with the princes, especially the relationship with Huang Taiji is extraordinary.

Even after his father and brother rebelled, they were still trusted and reused.Since his youth, he followed Nurhachi to fight everywhere and was named Heshuobeile for his military achievements. He was one of the eight Heshuobeiles who co-handled the state affairs during the Nurhachi period.

At this moment, Jierhalang was also very excited, raised the torch, came to a Shenwei invincible general cannon, and then lit the fuse.

boom!
