Kangxi, your Qing Dynasty is dead

Chapter 130 Eight Banners new army, the firepower is fierce! (ask for subscription, ask for monthly pass)
"Outside the long pavilion, by the side of the ancient road, the green grass stretches to the sky. The sound of willows and flutes is still in the evening wind, and the mountains outside the sunset. At the end of the sky, at the corner of the earth, half of the best friends are scattered. A ladle of turbid wine is enough for the rest of the fun. Don't dream about the cold tonight."

The sweet and melancholy singing voice, accompanied by the melodious tune, made people's eyes sour and their hearts extremely sad.

Outside the window, it was white snow, and it was chilling.Several men in casual clothes were sitting in the flower hall of a mansion, with solemn faces, listening quietly to a plump and enchanting beauty playing the piano and singing in the hall.All of them looked sad and mesmerized, and the fragrance of tea wafted faintly in the flower hall at the same time.

The woman who is singing and playing the piano is Yang Xiaohuan's own sister, Yang Xiaomi. Her age is similar to Xiaohuan's, and her figure is almost carved out of a mold. At first glance, she can tell that it is produced by the Yang family's Nzifu!
Although her face is not necessarily prettier than Yang Xiaohuan's, and she is not as beautiful as Wu Xiaotu's, who turns all kinds of beauties into green leaves, she has a very attractive "sweetness". I hope everyone is interested, probably speaking of a beauty like her.

Such a beauty, coupled with Li Shutong's "Farewell", can really melt people's hearts
Just when everyone was intoxicated, the singing and the sound of the piano stopped abruptly, and the beauty looked calm and nodded slightly in salute.

The house where Yang Xiaomi played the piano and sang was the foreign house that King Yu Fuquan gave her. It was located in Shangtoutiao Hutong outside Chongwenmen, not far from Fuquan's palace.During this period of time, Fuquan often held banquets in the house in Shangtoutiao Hutong, eating and drinking with a group of friends, but it was the first time for Yang Xiaomi to play the piano and sing in person.

Those who are eligible to enjoy this "special courtesy" are of course Fuquan's "beloved relatives and friends".The fifth elder brother Chang Ning, the imperial minister Guanyinbao, the sticky pole chiefs Wang Zhongxiao and Cao Yin, Yang Xiaomi's elder brother Yang Qilong, and Zhang Xiaobao and Guo Jinbao, the two big Baoyis who were standing next to Fuquan.Oh, there is another person who is not so close to Fuquan, that is, the Minister of the Ministry of War, the Pearl of the University Scholars.

Mingzhu was originally in the Ministry of Punishment, but after returning to Beijing and Miansheng yesterday, she was transferred to the Ministry of War. Considering that it is a strategy to use troops at the moment, this is considered a great use.

And it's a bit out of style for the minister of the Ministry of War to drink and listen to music in the prince's outer house!Originally, Mingzhu would not come, but today, when Kangxi was reporting to Kangxi in detail about the process of capturing and killing the third prince Zhu in Suzhou in the South Study Room, Kangxi asked him to go this time. Don't dare not listen.But he didn't want to stay with Fuquan for too long, so as not to let the censors know about it and read a book later.

So after hearing Yang Xiaomi finished singing, Mingzhu winked at her good student Wang Zhongxiao who was still looking at Yang Damei mesmerized, seeing that the other party didn't respond, she could only cough.

It was only then that Wang Zhongxiao came to his senses, and found that Yang Xiaomi's eyes collided with the two of them as well, and hurriedly separated.

Wang Zhongxiao regained his composure, and then said to Mingzhu: "Teacher, you see that the student's wife and sister and the prince are together because they are in love. Now, it is a bit difficult for the prince to get a name for the student's wife and sister."

"What's so difficult about it?" Mingzhu smiled, "The prince just needs to ask the emperor for a favor and carry a flag for the Yang family, won't that be enough?"

Yang Qilong shook his head with a smile and said: "Ming Zhongtang, the next official will be registered as a flag, but it will be inconvenient to help the prince manage the Ruixin Hall."

Mingzhu was right when she thought about it. Ruixintang helped Fuquan accept bribes legally, and at the same time gave usurious loans. Some of them were somewhat shady.If Yang Qilong is not in the flag, he is a pawn that can be discarded at any time. If he wants to join the flag, it will be difficult to handle.

In addition, what he wants to join is Fuquan's assistant leader, so Fuquan has to take responsibility for the things he does.

If Yang Qilong joined the assistant leader directly managed by the emperor, then he is the emperor's servant. His sisters are all the emperor's, no, they should belong to the "kings"!They all have to go to the Eight Banners draft, so how do they divide up so many princes?Don't say that Fuquan is not happy about this matter, both Kangxi and Wang Zhongxiao will be unhappy!
"What does the lord mean?" Mingzhu asked again.

"My lord wants Xiao Mi to be another Nalan teacher, do you think it's okay?" Wang Zhongxiao asked with a smile.

"What?" Mingzhu was taken aback by Wang Zhongxiao's proposal, "Another household, Nalan? That's not it. Your mistress will misunderstand!"

Although Nalan is a homonym of Nalan, not all Nala can be written as Nalan, only Nalan Mingzhu.So if Xiao Mi becomes another Nalan, called Nalan Xiao Mi, then she will become Nalan Mingzhu's illegitimate daughter!

If Wu Linzhu, Mingzhu's wife, knows about this, then Mingzhu can't make it through?
"Maybe it's your niece, teacher." Wang Zhongxiao made another suggestion.

"No, no," Nalan Mingzhu still shook his head, "My family is small and they are all relatives of the emperor, so it's not easy to arrange!"

The ancestor of Nalan Mingzhu was the chief of the Yehe tribe of the Haixi Jurchen, a direct descendant of the Yehenala family, and fell in love with Aixinjueluo, the Jianzhou Jurchen, for many years—although Mingzhu’s grandfather, the last of the Yehe tribe, Baylor Jin Taiji was killed by Nurhachi, but Jin Taiji's sister also married Nurhachi and gave birth to Huang Taiji.So even though Nalan Mingzhu and his family were covered with Zhenghuang Banner, they are the first-class relatives of the emperor.

If Xiao Mi can be regarded as Nalan Mingzhu's niece, then what will be her status in Prince Yu's Mansion in the future?Sooner or later, you can't be a side Fujin?Can the natal families of Fuquan's wives be happy?

But Nalan Mingzhu still had to find a way to help Yang Xiaomi get an identity because that was what Kangxi meant!
Kangxi probably wants to find out the way, so he can do it in the future!
"Yes, yes." Nalan Mingzhu thought about it for a while, and she had come to a conclusion, "My lord, why don't I arrange for your foreign residence to be another householder under the leadership of Shi Guanzuo of Xianglan Banner Dehene. This The people under the leadership of Dehenesi Guanzuo are also Yehenala. In terms of seniority, I am their elder, and I can speak well. Moreover, there are quite a lot of them and they are quite mixed. Many of them open accounts, Another account, one more is nothing."

Yehenala with the blue flag?Isn't that Lafayette's house?
Wang Zhongxiao hurriedly looked at Yang Xiaomi again, only to find that the little goblin was also looking at him, with such winking eyes, he was fascinated by it!
"Okay." Fuquan was also looking at Yang Xiaomi, but he felt that Xiao Mi was winking at him, "The Xianglan Banner is the Xianglan Banner. In two days, I have to go to the owner of the Xianglan Banner, Prince Jane's house to eat." Xi, just looking for an opportunity to talk to the new Prince Labu."

Labu is the elder brother of Desai who died of smallpox not long ago. Desai is a descendant, he is a concubine, both are the sons of the previous Prince Jian Jidu (also died of smallpox, is this stuff still inherited?), his younger brother He has no son, so the prince belongs to him.

"My lord, there are quite a few people who know Xiao Mi outside," Yang Qilong interjected again, "Why don't you change her name before joining the flag."

"Okay, what's the name?"

Wang Zhongxiao blurted out: "My name is Lan'er, Yehenala Lan'er."

"Lan'er?" Fuquan asked, "Does it sound good?"

Yang Xiaomi covered her mouth and said with a smile: "It sounds good, it sounds good, my family will be called Lan'er from now on."

It is already the spring of the tenth year of Kangxi, but the spring is not warm, the flowers are not blooming, and the outside of Beijing is still covered with snow.

There was the sound of horseshoes, and then the cavalry of the brigade marched southward on the open official road. Walking in the middle of the team, surrounded by a group of cavalry in yellow jackets, were three wearing blue satin cotton gowns and wearing The boys in the warm hats with sable fur sides looked rather thin, like three children.

One of them has a domineering pockmarked face, of course it is the pockmarked Kang Mazi in the world!
And with this Kang Mazi were his two good brothers, Prince Yu Fuquan and Chang Ning who had just been conferred the title of Prince Gong after the Chinese New Year—"Lan'er" was already there, how could there be no Prince Gong?
Now "Big Head", "Shikai", "Zhongshan", "Lan'er", "Prince Gong", and "Xiuquan" and "Xiuqing" (these two have not yet been born) are almost complete. Is it finally over?

Wang Zhongxiao was thinking about when the two wives with big bellies in the family would give birth, when he suddenly heard a "rumbling" in his ears, as if there was thunder somewhere.He hurriedly withdrew his mind and looked up to the sky. It was sunny and blue, and he couldn't even see a cloud!
Just as Wang Zhongxiao was feeling strange, Uncle Fu Quanfu beside him laughed: "Big head, don't look, there is no thunder!"

"That's the cannon?" Wang Zhongxiao immediately realized, "Where is the cannon?"

"Boom!"

There were two more rumbles, these two rumbles were not at the same time, but one after the other, with an interval of 30 seconds, and the first rumble was relatively light, while the latter rumble was louder.

Obviously, this is a cannon firing explosive shells!

Wang Zhongxiao suddenly thought of something, and his expression became a little ugly.

At this time, Uncle Fu smiled again: "I guessed it for you, this is the craftsmen of the Hall of Mental Cultivation Office, under the leadership of Master Qin Tianjian Nan, trying to shoot the newly cast General Weiyuan Cannon!"

Wang Zhongxiao's heart skipped a beat, knowing that it was broken, Kangxi had already started to build artillery.

This Kang Mazi is going to become Kang Dapao ahead of schedule!

Kangxi in history actually attached great importance to firearms!

It's just that Kangxi paid attention to the "Eight Banners firearms", which were firearms specially used by Eight Banners soldiers, but at the same time restricted the green camp firearms.

The Hall of Mental Cultivation Office is a yamen under the Ministry of Internal Affairs that specializes in manufacturing palace utensils and weapons. It existed in the Shunzhi period, but it really flourished in the Kangxi period.

Whether Kangxi, the "sage king" who manages the country, is holy or not is another matter, but one thing is for sure, that is, this little pockmark is very smart, he is a master of engineering, and he can personally manage a small workshop to make guns and cannons!

In addition, Kangxi also paid attention to the introduction of foreign advanced technology for casting artillery. The master Nanhuai Rennan of the Qin Tianjian was the "foreign master" who helped Kangxi make guns and cannons.

Therefore, under the personal supervision of Kangxi, the Hall of Mental Cultivation Building Office, which introduced many advanced Western technologies, ushered in its heyday during the Kangxi period.

At the same time, the Eight Banners soldiers equipped with a large number of "Zaobanchu" firearms are still somewhat capable of fighting!

Although the hand-to-hand combat of these Eight Banners soldiers has declined, under the personal guidance of Kang Mazi, it is still possible to shoot and shoot.

Wang Zhongxiao originally thought that it would take a few more years for Kang Mazi to pay attention to guns and cannons and the Hall of Mental Cultivation Office, but he didn't expect him to start so early.

At this time, Fuquan said again: "In this battle of Suzhou, we suffered a great loss from the enemy's artillery! If the rebels hadn't somehow transported dozens of cannons that could open flower bombs into Suzhou, Suzhou City would not have been possible." I lost most of it!

So after getting the report from Duolong, Mu Tianyan and you, the emperor immediately went to find Master Nan.Master Nan said that those cannons are short-barreled curved-firing cannons, which are designed to open flower shells. They are probably samples from the Western side. They were cast by Wu Sangui's craftsmen, so the emperor asked Master Nan to help. Cast some.

This cannon is not difficult to cast, and it was done years ago.After the Chinese New Year, the cannons will be tested. The emperor knows that you have encountered the rebels' curved cannons in Suzhou, so I will show you to see if our general Weiyuan's cannon is better, or the rebels' cannons are better! "

broken!

Wang Zhongxiao said heartily: Those stupid officials who wrote memorials indiscriminately and exaggerated the enemy's situation have hit the right way this time, and they might put Wu Sangui in a trap!

Although he thought so in his heart, he still had to flatter him, "Your majesty is still wise! At that time, the slave saw that the rebels were firing bombs one after another, and wanted to shoot the cannons with a long gun. falling!"

"Puchi!" Kangxi, who hadn't spoken much along the way, was amused by Wang Zhongxiao's words, "Your spear can also shoot down cannons? Do you know how powerful those cannons are? By the way, when you were at the Yunnan Fan School , hasn’t the gentleman sent by Wu Sangui taught you how to shoot?”

"I have taught it, of course I have taught it!" Wang Zhongxiao thought for a while and said, "Wu Sangui's artillery is still very powerful. There are many cannons. The big ones are four to five thousand catties, and the small ones are hundreds of catties. Excellent.

However, when I was in Yunnan, I had never seen that kind of "bantam" that could release bullets. I guessed that it might have been improved with a tiger squatting gun, so that it could be easily smuggled. "

What he said was not nonsense, and he couldn't say nonsense, because Kangxi still had a lot of eyeliners in Yunnan and Guizhou, and Wu Sangui's casting and shooting of cannons could not be hidden from Kangxi.Moreover, Wu Sangui did not learn how to cast cannons until he arrived in Yunnan. In fact, he cast many high-quality bronze cannons as early as when Wu Sangui was the commander-in-chief in Liaodong, some of which were passed down to later generations and entered museums.

In addition, Wu Sangui cast a large number of cannons during and before the San Francisco Uprising in history, some of which were hidden in Yuezhou, and were later discovered by the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, which became their weapon to defeat Wuhan and Jiangning!
These cannons are still sharp after being hidden for more than a hundred years, which can also reflect how strong Wu Sangui's Pingxi Fan is in casting cannons.

Of course, Kangxi is not bad in this respect. Otherwise, the San Francisco Uprising in history would have succeeded!
Kangxi's pockmarked face is also a bit heavy. Although this time he can be said to have a certain chance of winning, and it can be said that he has an overwhelming advantage over the Pingxi Fan, but those advantages are all in the general situation. No matter how good the general situation is, the final victory must be fought on the battlefield. come out!

Although Wu Yingqi and Aobai, the two trapped beasts, are in a difficult situation, they still have the power to fight. If the imperial army can't break their battle of trapped beasts, then no matter how good the situation is, the general situation may be reversed!
Even if it is a corner against the whole country, it is not impossible to win!
Didn’t the Qing Dynasty (Dajin) in those days rely on victory after victory to forcibly change from one corner to the whole country?
Kangxi was thinking about how to strangle Wu Yingqi and Aobai step by step along the way, and did not speak any more.

And Wang Zhongxiao listened to the roar of the artillery that was getting closer and closer, and his heart began to flutter.The battle of San Francisco is about to start, if Wu Sangui can't win the first battle and then sweep Sichuan and Shaanxi in one fell swoop, Kangxi still has a good chance of winning
The thoughts of the two people were quickly interrupted by the sound of trumpets welcoming the distinguished guests.

Wang Zhongxiao looked up and found that he was already outside Gongji City.

Gongji City was later known as Wanping City, but the current Wanping County Government is still located in Beijing City. Gongji City is still an acropolis defending Beijing. There are only barracks and government offices in the city, and there are no residential buildings.Because there is Fengtai Town nearby, Gongji City was called Fengtai Daying after the Eight Banners New Army Presidential Minister Yamen entered.

However, Gongji City is still a bit far from the inner city of Beijing after all. It is not easy for the Eight Banners soldiers working here in Fengtai Daying to go home, so Kangxi divided the Eight Banners New Army in the three towns into three shifts. Camp training, the remaining two shifts go home to spend time with my wife and children.

So today, there is actually only a town of Eight Banners soldiers lining up outside the Fengtai camp to welcome Kangxi.

Although there is only one town, there are tens of thousands of elite soldiers, wearing eight-color cotton armors of yellow, yellow, white, white, red, red, blue, and blue. Standing with the equipment in hand, he laid out sixteen square formations with "participants" as the unit.Among them, the shotgun soldiers accounted for a lot of troops, at least [-]%!Even some of the cavalry on horseback carried shotguns!

In front of each phalanx, various artillery pieces were placed.

Among them is the Fran machine gun with a long barrel. The Qing army called this kind of gun a sub-mother gun, and it was a firearm exclusive to the Eight Banners.

There is also a mortar with a barrel that looks very short—it should be the General Weiyuan cannon that was test-fired just now!This General Weiyuan cannon looks a lot thicker than the mortar that Wang Zhongxiao ordered privately cast in the small station, and the projectile to fire must weigh twenty or thirty catties!
In the end, of course, the red-clothed cannon carried by a very strong two-wheeled cannon cart-this cannon looks like it weighs two or three thousand catties, and the weight of the ammunition will not be less than ten catties. Although it is inconvenient to move, it is powerful. Not to be underestimated!
Adding all kinds of artillery together, there are always as many as seventy or eighty guns!

The Eight Banners New Army, which has only ten thousand people, has so many artillery and muskets. This firepower is not to mention in East Asia, and it may be considered top-notch if it is pulled to Europe!

This Eight Banners new army is a bit unexpected!
　Recommend who am I and return to the new work "I really don't do business properly"

　　On the nineteenth day of the first lunar month of the first year of Wanli, Wanli Emperor Zhu Yijun looked at the iron triangle in front of him.

　　The first ally has a very kind face, she is the Empress Dowager of Ming Dynasty.

　　The second ally is just a eunuch whose job it is to kowtow.

　　The third ally is a powerful minister, he looks domineering.

　　In the end, everyone turned their eyes to me and asked me what role I was playing:
　　I looked at my identity and said, I am:
　　The emperor who does not do business properly
