Vow to die at the end of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 276 The Second Eastern Expedition ([-])
Qiu Tianxing had anticipated this situation when he made the eastward advance policy before, but now the heroes in the south are restraining each other, even if they make some moves, they can only move around within a small range.Moreover, when the Tartars returned to the north, there began to be some small frictions among the heroes in the south. If the security regiment stood still, these forces would definitely fight.However, what Qiu Tianxing lacks now is time, so he took the lead.Facts have proved that this shocked all the princes in the south.

Not only the external pressure, Qiu Tianxing also felt the pressure internally.Although the pressure was still small, it made Qiu Tianxing pay more attention to it.The war is about to start, and the stock subscription rate of enterprises established by the Ministry of Commerce has been greatly reduced.Similarly, the tax revenue collected by the Ministry of Finance for the month has also decreased a lot.These two departments did not fulfill the promise made to Qiu Tianxing at the meeting.

Not long ago, Minister of Commerce Li Yuanbao hinted to Qiu Tianxing that shareholders of some factories complained about the war, saying that the war had affected the sales of their products.Of course, most of the factories to which these shareholders belonged produced products for the people's livelihood, and factories such as subcontracting firecracker holders and long gun barrels had no complaints.What Li Yuanbao said made Qiu Tianxing feel that the power of capital was gradually awakening, and they had their own demands.This was also expected by Qiu Tianxing, but he didn't expect it to come so early.After the capital is strong, it can even own the country. Of course, the capital supported by Qiu Tianxing is still very weak.

Now, Qiu Tianxing only loosened the curse on them a little bit, but he never thought that they would start to have a little bit of ambition.Although this little ambition is nothing in the eyes of others, after all, the common people also burn incense and pray to avoid war, but this has aroused Qiu Tianxing's vigilance.Qiu Tianxing only wants to use these capitals, but he doesn't want his descendants to be controlled by these capitals in the end.

But there is also good news. Civil servants and generals in the system are looking forward to this war.There are various departments at the top level, governors, governors, and county heads at the grassroots level, as well as scattered directors, bureau chiefs and division chiefs.However, compared to the huge number of cadres, it is still obvious that there are too many monks and too few porridge.Once the war broke out and new base areas were opened up, these people would have the chance to be promoted.The same is true in the army. The number of the four battalions directly under the headquarters is too small. There are rumors that the headquarters will increase the number of battalions. This has given some veteran column leaders and even large captains an opportunity.No one could say that if he could make contributions in the war, wouldn't he be able to reach the sky in one step and become the battalion commander?Whenever I think of this, those five bars and four bars tremble with excitement.At the grassroots level, there is also a chance for one bar, two bars and three bars. When the battalion is newly established and the team expands again, this is their opportunity. It is still possible for each person to raise one bar.

War is always a stage for careerists to display their talents, but people at the bottom can't avoid it.It had been about a month since the war was mobilized at the beginning of the month, and the city of Jinling suddenly became depressed.Everyone is worried about the future and misses the peaceful time.Although this peaceful time was only two years ago, people are forgetful. At the time when Hong Chengchou led his troops to attack Taiping Mansion in a hurry, the memory of Jinling City's continuous filling of lives in Taiping Mansion has gradually faded.Now suddenly a dream, this war has begun again.The first Eastern Expedition before was just a local war, and it was not even felt in Jinling City.But now the security regiment has mobilized more than half of its troops and 60 civilians, which involves almost everyone.

When the soldiers left home and returned to the team, the tears of relatives conveyed a deep sense of reluctance, the smoke rising from the kitchen and the splash of grease represented the last care, and the oil lamps that were not extinguished overnight before parting reflected the figures sitting alone.When the rooster crowed again and before dawn, the firewood gates creaked open, and the soldiers on the expedition were finally about to embark on the journey. One by one, in groups, on the roads and trails, the soldiers gathered into rivers and flocked to the barracks.And behind them are figures leaning on the door looking at each other, hoping that their relatives will return safely.Although they are number code names in the military camp, for their relatives, these number code names are close relatives, people who are hard to give up for a lifetime.

Soldiers leave home to embark on a journey, relying on the door to look at their relatives, the bloody rain after the battle, how many people there are when they return.

Because the war was about to start, Qiu Tianxing asked the soldiers in the barracks to take vacations in turn, and perhaps many of them would be with their relatives for the last time.Although the soldiers were very reluctant to give up, the good man has his ambitions everywhere.Whether it is from the meritorious deeds to honor their ancestors, or from the fact that deserters will be deprived of their family's land use rights, and their descendants will have no way out for generations, their fate is doomed.If you charge ahead, you will be honored if you win, and you will be shrouded in horse leather if you lose. If you eat this bowl of rice, you will sacrifice your life.Fortunately, many members of the regiment who do not want to live like this for a lifetime have hope. The security regiment implements a ten-year service period system.Although ten years is a long time, and although many people will not live ten years later, after all, there is hope and hope, which makes many people very happy.

With the mind of making contributions, the regiment members swept all the forces who dared to stop them like a vast ocean.On the one hand, the army set off from Suzhou Prefecture, and 12 troops marched southward. The red flag covered the sky and the sun, and the dust from the soldiers stepped up, covering the entire army, making people feel more fearful after seeing it.

At this moment, Jiaxing Mansion, which received the news that the bandit army was going south, was already in chaos.After fleeing to Songjiang Mansion, the Tazi regiment training troops in Suzhou Mansion were driven to Jiaxing Mansion by Zhang Chengwu.

Although the Huzhou Mansion was taken by bandits in a surprise attack, Jiaxing Mansion, relying on the Hangzhou Mansion, persisted anyway.Zheng Ningmao and Chen Leping, the remnants of the regiment training, just lived a life of intoxication and dreaming in the city.The bandits were so powerful that it was hard to contain them. Seeing that there was no hope of revenge, the two could only complain to themselves. After a period of time, the two originally opposed to each other became confidants.

The strength of group training lies in whether it has roots. A group training with roots can exert a strong combat power under the belief of protecting the family and the clan, while a group training without roots is no better than refugees because they have lost their beliefs.Now that Zheng Ningmao and Chen Leping have lost their ancestral home and ancestral land, more than a thousand practitioners under their command are fighting and making trouble in the city all day long, and they haven't practiced for a long time.

When the crisis came, the two cheered up and started the drill again.

"Even if you die, you have to die on the battlefield, and you have to kill a few gangsters to avenge your family and your clan!"

At this moment, this idea became the belief of all Lian Yong, and they recovered again.
