Win the Ding 1617

Chapter 723 Endure the labor pain for a while, and the barbarians will enter China, and China will l

Although the negotiation of the terms of the peace agreement has been completed with the Southern Guangdong Army Mission, and has been approved and sealed by the deceased Huang Taiji, after all, Huang Taiji signed it and Li Shouhan has not yet signed it.Therefore, the enthronement ceremony of the new emperor Fulin is still going on.

Although the scale and scene are in any case not as high-end and high-end as when Chongzhen ascended the throne, and there is still a bit of rusticity in his bones.However, in order to dilute the murderous and hostile atmosphere in Shengjing City with a festive atmosphere, Fulin's enthronement ceremony was still very successful.

As the person in charge of a series of industrial activities in the Qing Dynasty, from mining ore to smelting steel to casting guns, Chen Banda also kowtowed to the emperor, the two empress dowagers and the regent along with the squad in the Zhenghuang Banner team.

After the ceremony was over, Chen Banda even took his deputy, Lao Li, the servant of Prince Rui under Zhengbai, to the Prince Regent's mansion to hand out a sign to ask for an audience.

At this time, Prince Rui's Mansion was already the highest center of power in the Qing Dynasty.The most elite troops from each of the Eight Banners were dispatched to defend Prince Rui's Mansion.Today, the ones on duty in front of the gate are precisely a Niuluba Yala soldier from Manchuria with the Yellow Banner and a Niulu Baya soldier from Manchuria with the Zhengbai Banner.

Under Dorgon's careful cultivation, the barriers between the direct descendants of the two white banners and the two yellow banners that had just taken over are no longer so strict. , standing alternately, it seems that in the eyes of caring people, it is a little frightening.

However, Chen Banda didn't care about these things, he just paced back and forth in the gatehouse anxiously.

After a while, Bao Chengxian and Ning Wanwo, who were on duty at the Prince Regent's Palace, walked in lazily, "Chen Banda, let's go, the Prince Regent has summoned you." .”

"Slave Chen Banda pays respects to the Prince Regent!"

"The slave has seen the master!"

After Chen Banda and Lao Li greeted the young regent in front of them according to their identities, they stood aside in a well-behaved manner.

"Chen Banda, why don't you go back to Liaoyang to clean up your factory and mine blast furnace, but come to see the regent?" Ning Wan and I were the same as Fan Wencheng and Bao Chengxian.They were all Han Chen promoted by Huang Taiji when he was alive, but he and Bao Chengxian didn't have Fan Wencheng's luck and foresight, so they turned to Dorgon immediately.And it has made great contributions.After Dorgon took power, he also reciprocated, making Fan Wencheng and Hong Chengchou two assistant ministers, holding the cardinal power.However, Ning Wan, Bao Chengxian and I did not have such good official luck.Although they also acted according to the wind, they knew that Hauge was definitely not a monarch who could look up to Han people like them, so they also secretly pledged their allegiance to Dorgon.Unfortunately, it was a step late.

Right now, these two can only be in charge of copywriting in the Prince Regent's Mansion, and take care of money, food and supplies.Compared with Fan Wencheng and Hong Chengchou's entry into the hall, it can be said to be a thousand miles away.The more this is the case, the more eager the two of them are to express themselves in front of the regent. In terms of loyalty and ability to handle affairs, they are no worse than Fan Wencheng and Hong Chengchou!

"My lord, you paid for the slave's errand! The slave is willing to guard the mausoleum for the late emperor!" Zeng said nothing.Chen Banda was already aggrieved and shed two lines of tears!

"Bold! The new emperor ascends the throne and is about to remove the old and make a new one. You, a slave, claim to guard the mausoleum for the late emperor. Are you dissatisfied with the regent to vent your anger?!" Without waiting for Dorgon to speak, Ning Wan But I reprimanded Chen Banda like a cannonball.

"Scholar Ning, take your time." Dorgon waved his hand to stop Ning Wanwo from showing his loyalty.He knows a lot about Chen Banda than I do Ning Wan.According to the current words, it is a purely technical talent.Every day, I only know how to study how to smelt pig iron more conveniently and how to reduce costs.Study how to manufacture gun barrels and cast hundreds of cannons as one piece, as Nanman did, and they can be interchanged with each other.but.But today, how could he come to himself and ask to resign to guard Huang Taiji's mausoleum in such a day?

"Chen Banda, don't cry. This king also watched you as a slave step by step to today. You have worked hard and painstakingly for the weapons in the hands of the Qing soldiers and the armor on your body. These credits are not only the first emperor, but also the two empress dowagers. , the current emperor sees it in his eyes and remembers it in his heart, even this king knows it well. At least [-]% of the great martial arts of the Qing Dynasty is due to you! Why did you come to this king today to ask to resign from your errand? Could it be? Who can make things difficult for you?! If someone dares to make things difficult for you, you just have to submit to this king! Everything is up to you!”

With a long sigh, Chen Banda began to vomit bitterness.

"My lord, thank you and the late emperor for trusting this servant, and entrusted this servant with the mining, smelting of pig iron, forging of weapons, and forging of guns and cannons, but right now this servant really can't do it anymore! Now, Liaoyang, Anshan, etc. The factories and mines are almost out of business! The mines are better, but the factories everywhere are in a state of incompetent people, no idlers, and no fireworks!"

"Incompetent people, no idlers, no fireworks?" Dorgon put down the pipe stem in his hand, and tapped the copper plate a few times to knock out the soot inside. "how so?"

"My lord, you don't know. The price of goods has skyrocketed in the past few days. Anyone with some skills in the factory has people's hearts fluttering. It happened that two groups of Nanman missions passed by the slave's factory, and the leader of the mission did everything possible. To lure and lure the craftsmen and technicians under the slaves, these slaves don't want to repay the emperor's favor, but covet mere money, food and silver, and take advantage of the chaos to escape, at this time, I am afraid that they have already arrived in Denglai!"

Many of the technical backbone of the factory were kidnapped by Liang Kuan and others, and most of the remaining labor force was recruited by Huang Taiji from various banners. Some time ago, Dorgon bought red and blue flowers for printing and dyeing cloth. Seeing that harvesting the red and blue flowers made a lot of money, the flag owners of the banners used various means to get their coated slaves away from Chen Banda to harvest the red and blue flowers to make cash. The labor force and technical backbone were gone. The factory area naturally became dead silent.In the past, the factories in Liaoyang, which were full of joy and excitement, became silent.The dark blue sky, polluted by coal burning, reappeared in its true blue color, which looked very refreshing.

"My lord, this servant is just an empty general right now, and he has no one under his command. But look." While spitting bitterly, Chen Banda took out a list from his clothes, which listed the names and quantities of several items.Most of them are swords, guns, swords, halberds, bows, crossbows, arrows, armor, armor, guns, guns, medicines, etc. produced by various factories under his jurisdiction.

"On the one hand, there is no one in the slave's hands to use, and on the other hand, it is an errand sent by you! Even if the slave is covered in iron, how many nails can he drive? It is impossible anyway. But the slave is greedy for life and afraid of death, my lord, Please forgive me and let the slave live. Let the slave serve the late emperor's tomb!"

Dorgon pondered for a moment: "Chen Banda, you are loyal. This king understands, but you must also understand one thing. Now everything must be based on the overall situation of the peace negotiation. Starting from the king's Ama Taizu, Emperor Gao, I began to attack the Ming Dynasty in the Qing Dynasty. But now the war has been going on for decades, and the Eight Banners are getting more and more difficult. Finally, the peace agreement was signed, and the Qing Dynasty can rest and recuperate for a while. If you give up, are you going to get food and supplies for the king?"

"My lord, if we don't have food, let's grow it ourselves, and if we don't have steel, we can refine it ourselves. It's better to ask for help than to ask for ourselves. Although we are negotiating peace with Nanman now, the master's grand plans are also known to the slaves! Can you sell us grain, cloth, pig iron?! If we don’t have anything in our hands, we will be slaughtered by others!” Chen Banda also became more and more excited as he spoke, and his voice grew louder, until later, his face was almost red. It's time to quarrel with Duo ErGun.

Ning Wan and I met Bao Chengxian, but I was happy in my heart. This stupid goose who only knows how to smelt iron and cast cannons clearly gave me a great opportunity to make meritorious deeds!

"Master Chen, what you said is wrong. Could it be that red and blue flowers are not the root, and dyeing cloth can't make a living?" Ning Wan and I argued with Chen Ban in a long voice.

"I have also heard from the banner officers of various banners that the performance of the iron and steel smelted by you in Liaoyang is not as good as that produced by Nanman. Moreover, since I was promoted by the regent to manage money and food, I have discovered that you smelt iron and cast iron. The money and food spent by the cannon is also a bit more! I will give you an account, and it is also 1 labor. You can refine [-] catties of iron, but if you let them collect red and blue flowers to dye cloth, I will use it again. If you buy it at a profit, you can get at least [-] catties of iron, and you don’t have to spend a lot of money to sell meat to buy grain and mine coal!” Compared with Ning Wan and me, Bao Chengxian’s accusation seems much more reasonable and beneficial.At least use the data to speak.

"So, my lord, in the humble opinion of a slave, don't say anything else, just look at the book, it is better to buy than to buy, and to borrow. Of course, I also know that the iron and steel thing was created by the late emperor, and it is fundamentally related. You can't be careless. However, this is a long-term matter. From my own point of view, this is fine, Mr. Chen, you should bear with it for a few years and make way for the red and blue flowers."

Poor Chen Banda, a technical official, how can he be the opponent of these two experienced veterans?After saying a few words, Chen Banda choked so hard that he had nothing to say.By the time he left the Prince Regent's Mansion, Chen Banda had already turned pale with anger.

"My lord! My lord, don't be so angry. Didn't the Lord Regent give us an opening? We can use the waste materials for casting guns, knives, guns and armor to make some hoes and sickles for sale. Use these for sale. Make up for the shortage of casting artillery and other things!" Lao Li, who followed Chen Banda into the mansion, kept comforting him.

"Ah! It was originally made to cast cannons, but it was used to make sickles, and these sickles were used to harvest red and blue flowers, alas!"

"My lord, don't be too sad. Didn't the prince say that within three to five years, we will not have a big fight with Ming. As long as we endure for a while and get through this period of pain, we will have good days ahead! "

At this time, Denglei's three mansions were in a different situation.

Feeling uneasy, Liaodong's first labor export army took a sea ship sent by Shandong and set foot on a place they used to be very familiar with.It's not the first time they have come to Shandong. Many people have followed their masters and trampled this land time and time again.It's just that what they never dreamed of was that one day they would come to Shandong as a laborer.Thinking of the people they had killed and the cities and villages they looted before, they couldn't help but feel terrified. If they met the sufferers in the past, it was up to them whether they would be cut to pieces or pierced by arrows.

In the end, the first meal after getting off the boat made them firmer in their minds. The Nanmanzi wanted to kill them to avenge their dead souls!I saw that the dark iron pot was full of kelp soup and stewed tofu with cabbage and salted fish. The big bucket was full of sticky rice porridge, and the cook generously brought a big spoonful when cooking.Watching them gobble up, not only not angry, but also sneered.These people with stories in their hearts suddenly felt that the food in front of them was tasteless, and even eating it was bitter.Some people even sneaked away to places where no one was around.Crying with my head in my arms, worrying about how I will die tomorrow.

The next day, things seemed to be even worse. The Nanmanzi began to divide people into male, female, old and young.And the old and the young seemed to be unattended, but on Ding Zhuang's side, there were soldiers holding firecrackers watching.Now, even Tuha, who was pretending to be calm at first, felt that something was wrong, until these southern barbarians started to drive them on the road.Tuha finally couldn't bear it anymore.He sat down on the ground, said nothing, and insisted on seeing E Kui.The soldiers didn't know what his purpose was, so they called for E Kui. Seeing Tuha sitting on the ground and unable to get up, E Kui kicked him without saying a word: "Get out of my way, I want to die and jump into the sea, don't get dirty The land of Mr. Li."

Facing the vicious E Kui, Tuha didn't get angry, but knelt in front of E Kui.Weeping and saying: "My lord, anyway, I'm going to die soon. I don't want to do anything else. I just want to drink another sip of soju wine and eat a sip of the beef that I ate that day. I don't know anyone else, but I know you. Please, my lord. Can you do me a favor?"

What E Kui said was inexplicable, and after asking in detail, E Kui curled his lips and said, "You are a coward. You have never seen anything in the world, and you just have to wait until you have nothing to eat, so you will be killed. Then the hussars recruited by my father. Don’t they have to be cut into pieces three times a day? Tell you, the meal of the eldest son is divided into grades! The old and the young do light work, eat meat once every three days, and usually have meat in the dishes. Oil and salt, the staple food is millet, sorghum or other miscellaneous grains. Those who are digging rivers and repairing canals under coolies have meat once a day, usually at noon, and eat rice. Those who do particularly heavy work, meat twice a day, rice white flour Enough. If you can join me as a hussar, you only need to have a big stomach and enough meat. When you are not fighting or training, you can drink what you have!"

Tuha didn't care too much about other things, but when he heard that being a hussar was enough, he still drank two taels of soju every day.Tuha didn't believe it anymore, he shook his head and said, "Brother, although we don't meet many times, don't lie to me. Anyway, I am also the two yellow flags that our emperor personally received! Don't say it is a vest, it is the emperor's Kabush Xian Bing, you can’t say that there is meat every day, eating once a day is a good life. If you say that your soldiers eat meat once every three days, I will believe it, but I don’t believe it if you eat it casually every day and kill you.”

Seeing that Tuha didn't believe it, E Kui became a little anxious. He hated what he said when others didn't believe it.

So E Kui said: "Don't be crazy, kid, I tell you, do you dare to bet with me?" ?E Kui said: "Since you have the guts, let's do this. After a while, they will go to the farm to harvest cotton and dig water canals. You and I will go to the barracks. As long as you can ride a horse for two miles and shoot eight times out of ten with a bow, I will let you be the one." My soldier. Then you follow me to see if you can manage enough wine and meat every day. However, if you fail the assessment or find that you do have meat after two days, don’t be your Huang Taiji’s slave, but It’s for our father and me to be slaves. Do you dare or not?!”

Isn't this looking down on Tuha?At any rate, they are also the Pashiku of Zhenghuang Banner Manchuria!After hearing this, Tuha was so angry that he almost couldn't hold back his anger, thinking that you are humiliating me?You can't run two miles on horseback, and you can't hit eight out of ten shots. What kind of cavalry are you?

So Tuha said: "Your test is too easy, I have to stand on a bare horse and run two miles, ten shots out of ten." E Kui looked at Tuha, and said with a look of disbelief: "Really? Tuha replied loudly: "There are still fakes? But if I do it, do you dare to lose something?" E Kui said with a smile: "Tell me, do you want me to bow my head and admit my mistakes? It doesn't matter, as long as you can do it." Here, small matter."

Tuha shook his head and said: "It's useful for you to admit your mistakes. If I do it, I will lose ten catties of beef jerky and ten catties of liquor."

"Hey! Beef jerky is a big deal! I will slaughter a pig for you! But, you bastard will also do something for me!" E Kui has been by the eldest son's side for a while, so he must learn from him. With some small means. "You just pick out at least twenty people like you from among the people you came with!"

Now that the talk has come to this point, there is no other choice, and soon, E Kui ordered someone to bring the horse.Looking at the drawn war horse, Tuha suddenly felt something was wrong.I saw their war horses, with neat fur, fat and strong bodies, and the groom looked very professional.People's livestock can be so good, it seems that it is not impossible for people to eat meat every day.

However, there was no turning back arrow when the bow was opened, so Tuha jumped on the horse, took the hard bow that E Kui handed over, and lightly tapped the horse's buttocks with the bow tip of the hard bow, and the bare-backed war horse began to trot all the way in the martial arts arena.

Next, the eyeballs of Li Huayu's cavalrymen almost popped out. At the beginning, Tuha just clamped the horse's belly with his two legs honestly, trying to maintain his balance on the horse.After running around, he probably completed the process of familiarization and running-in with the war horse under his crotch, and then he simply played acrobatics, such as hiding in the stirrups, iron bridge, and golden rooster independence. A horse shock or something, it's not a problem at all.

After the performance, Tuha bent his bow and set his arrows, not only hitting ten out of ten shots, but also almost hitting the bull's-eye.The cavalrymen present couldn't help but applaud Tuha's good trick, with constant whistles and cheers.Na Tuha is also a guy who can't keep dry food in the kennel. Seeing people applauding and applauding, when even committing a maniac problem, when he rode his horse past the crowd, a carp jumped off the horse's back, and took a The saber at the waist of a cavalryman was pulled out from the scabbard, held in his mouth, he quickly caught up with the horse, jumped forward and jumped on the horse's back.

Before others could react to this flashy scene, Tuha had already swung his saber on his horseback, slashing left and right, simulating Song Zuo rushing into the enemy's line and beheading and hacking among the crowd.While slashing with a saber on the horse's back, he sang a ditty loudly.These horsemanship skills immediately made these cavalry who could barely ride a horse almost so shocked that their jaws almost dropped.

However, E Kui also had a momentary itch for skill, so he immediately grabbed a horse and practiced against Tuha on the playground. You build an iron bridge on the horse's back, and I will chase the cicada with eight steps. .You hide in the stirrups of the horse, and I will erect dragonflies on the horse's back.

Not long after, Pashi Kutuha, formerly of Zhenghuang Banner Manchuria, led the [-] cavalry masters he had selected among the laborers to the pier to meet the thousands of cavalrymen brought back by Mr. Liang Kuanliang. Families of traitors in Manchuria, Zhenglan Banner.

The power of role models is infinite. Seeing that the former officers of the Zhenghuang Banner have become cavalry officers under the command of Mr. Li, how can these Zhenglan Banner Manchurians who have a blood feud with Dorgon have such firm will?Under Tuha's testimony, even hundreds of ex-Zhenglan Banner rebels who had suffered and hated each other joined the Hussar Battalion under Liang Kuan's proud eyes.

Soon, when the autumn wind blew up, Li Huayu's cavalry expanded to thousands of people. Among them, there were veterans of the Southern Guangdong Army who were proficient in the tactics of entering the wall, as well as former Sauron cavalry like E Kui, and many others like him. Tuha, the cavalry masters among the former Eight Banners Manchuria.More were recruited from refugees in Huaibei, Xuzhou, Mengcheng, Bozhou and other places. Since Zhu Yuanzhang founded the country, these areas have been famous for their soldiers who are good at riding and shooting.At the end of the Qing Dynasty, this was the hometown of the famous Nianzi. Seng Gelinqin, the Prince of Horqin who commanded the cavalry of the three eastern provinces and the cavalry of the Mongolian Eight Banners, died at their hands.

A few years later, a very unscrupulous scene was often staged north of the Yellow River.

The Qing army rushing from the north like a huge wave, under the command of Cao Zhenyan, Cao Jueluo, Cao Gushan Ezhen and others, shouted: "Kill Nikan! Kill the Han dog!" and rushed to the south.

From the south to the north, the cavalry of the Southern Guangdong Army, composed of cavalry from the Sauron tribes such as Ekui and Tuha, and cavalry from the Manchurian tribes of the Eight Banners, shouted loudly in Jurchen dialect and unfamiliar Chinese: "Kill the Tartars! Kill them!" Barbarians!"

The two teams collided together, splashing blood into the sky. (~^~)
