The Soldier of the Ming Dynasty

speed is the soldier 's asset.

This is especially important for the nomadic people.

Even if they want to tear up the old system, they have to open it first.

Otherwise, once they can't get the first hand and wait for the Ming army to gather forces, even if they can defeat the Ming army, it will be extremely difficult if they want to burn, kill and plunder for great benefits and great advantages.

After all, weeding will scare the snake.

The common people all ran away and fled to the deep mountain, and they also grabbed a ball.

In the final analysis, although the later Jin Dynasty had established the country for several years, it was still a bandit and a beast.

What do robbers like best?

It is no wonder that the big bully the small and the strong beat the weak.

The beast is more obvious in this respect.

Even a tiger, in the face of a proud male wolf and a weaker female wolf, there is no doubt that the tiger will choose the latter.

It is impossible for them to "gnaw hard bones" without any practical benefits.

Not to mention, the military system of the later Jin Dynasty still had a strong shadow of slavery.

If these Mongolian and armored slaves do not have great benefits, how can they fight for the boar skin on dog day?

Like an old hunter, immersed in the mountains for ten years, specialized in a kind of game.

At this time, Li Yuanqing was already familiar with the national style, temperament and means of the later Jin Dynasty. Even if it was the royal family of the later Jin Dynasty, what posture did he like best in the sexual affairs, Li Yuanqing was already familiar with it.

It's just that Li Yuanqing has not engaged in a real large-scale exchange of fire with the later Jin army for several years since the battle of Chaoxian.

Although Li Yuanqing learned about Huang Taiji's "new army" from various channels, Li Yuanqing knew very well that according to Huang Taiji's temperament, he would never have taken his treasure out until the last critical moment.

Even after the new year, the army of the later Jin Dynasty really sent troops, but in this state of affairs, Li Yuanqing "can only observe from afar, and can't be blatant and playful." he can only "sneak around" on the side, but he can never be tough with him.

At this time, although the wind is very strong and his eyebrows are almost frozen, Li Yuanqing seems to have no much feeling and his mind is very clear.

Born in trouble, die in ease.

In recent years, although Li Yuanqing has been on a good run, his foundation is getting bigger and bigger, his money is getting more and more, including more and more beautiful women in the government. However, Li Yuanqing is very clear that "the revolution has not yet been successful, and comrades still need to work hard.".

If you can't win the final victory, all this is just a mirror image, for others to do wedding clothes.

In particular, the higher his status is, the more cautious he must be.

However, limited by time and energy, Li Yuanqing can only use this kind of bad weather to polish his mind and stimulate his nerves, so as to keep him in a calm and fast excited state both mentally and physically.

In the evening, the team camped in the open space beside a small village more than 20 miles northwest of Tongzhou city.

At this time, although there were more than 1000 war horses in the team, and both of them were more than enough, but in the bad weather, he couldn't mention coming quickly, and Li Yuanqing could only bear it.

Yang Lei asked some of his relatives and soldiers to take cash silver to buy some new year's products from the villagers. Li Yuanqing was talking to several villagers who were killing pigs here at the small river near the entrance of the village.

These villagers were very afraid of Li Yuanqing's team, but Li Yuanqing gave them several cigars respectively. Yang Lei bought them a lot of pig water at a high price. They gradually relaxed their vigilance and began to talk with Li Yuanqing cautiously with a smile.

"Uncle, it's been a long time since you saw your craft. What about? How's business this year? "

Li Yuanqing laughs at an old man who is skinning a dead pig.

A pig butcher is a butcher. In China, it is also a long-term job.

But don't look down on this kind of work and think it's cheap. In fact, from ancient times to now, even if they can't reach the middle class, they are at least better than ordinary people.

The old man took a strong puff on his cigar with his bloody hand. However, the taste of the cigar was so strong that he choked and coughed.

He's very careful with his son. Is it all right for him

The old man was choked to tears for a moment, but he said with a smile to Li Yuanqing: "this Junye, you are a treasure. The taste of my dry tobacco bag is much better than that of the old man. It's not cheap, is it? "

Li Yuanqing laughed: "it's not too expensive. If you like, I'll give you a box later. "

"Oh. This, how does this make you

The old man said with a smile, holding a cigar and shaving spareribs skillfully, he said with a smile, "master, I'm not telling you the truth. In recent years, my business has become more and more difficult. Originally, my old man, this business, early rather than late. But now, people are not willing to kill pigs in the new year. In order to catch up with the court tomorrow morning, my old man has to break the rules of my ancestors. "Li Yuanqing nodded with a smile.

He was born in the countryside in later generations. In this life, he was born in the bottom of mud soup. He knew something about butchers.

In fact, although many Chinese cultures have been invaded by many foreign cultures, including being skinned and cramped during the Qing Dynasty, some traditional handicrafts have been preserved.

It's like killing pigs.

Ordinary people seem to be very simple, one knife to kill the pig is.

But in this, there are many Taoist practices.

It's like the simplest bloodletting. If there is no master to teach, ordinary people are afraid that it is difficult to understand.

And this thing is always fastidious about early morning, generally in the early morning, catering to some more mysterious traditions.

At this time, the old man actually killed pigs in the evening, obviously some taboos.

Of course, there is no need to avoid so much yang in the army.

"Father in law, the old ancestors also have some difficulties. Who doesn't have three urgent times. The ancestors will not blame you. By the way, father-in-law, how many pigs have you killed in this village

Although Li Yuanqing's words do not seem to have much nutrition, it is extremely accurate to grasp a core point.

Judging from the appearance of this village, there are only more than 100 families. Killing a few pigs is the most appropriate way to measure the economic level of this village.

After all, killing pigs is not killing chickens. It's very difficult for ordinary people to finish it. Most of them will find craftsmen like this old man to do it.

The old man said with a wry smile: "master Jun, I'd like to kill more of them. But this time, if Wang Er Ma Zi, who made a fortune in Beijing, didn't come here this morning and asked me to kill pigs, I'm afraid there will be not one old man in Xiaowang Village this year. "

Li Yuanqing said, "I can't. Don't the common people kill a fat pig for meat during the Spring Festival

"Junye. Don't you want to be a common people? Who doesn't want to eat fat during the Spring Festival. I hate those Tartars. At the beginning of the year, I came to Beijing and did a lot of harm. If we didn't run fast, we would have lost our lives. Where are the pigs. This one, or that Wang Er pockmarked son, has just been transported back from the capital. "

Li Yuanqing nodded quietly and said with a smile, "old man, what about other villages? You are so close to the capital that there should be a lot of rich families? "

"Hey. Don't mention it, Junye. In the past years, there were many people who worked in big families and brought back a lot of goods. But this year, haven't you heard? There is no silver in the imperial court, and the officials can't get all the money. We ordinary people, these pure efforts, that can have good

People in Beijing are good at talking, especially the old man who is also a craftsman. Once the conversation box is opened, it can't be stopped.

In a short time, Li Yuanqing had mastered the hot news, such as who was rich, who was in trouble, whose daughter went to a rich family to be a servant girl, and so on.

At this time, the old man did not have a free hand. He had cleaned up the pig and was ready to leave.

Li Yuanqing said with a smile, "Lao Zhang, you are really admired by posterity. When I have the opportunity, I will come back to Xiaowang Village to take care of your business. Yang Lei, go and get a new cigar for the old man. "

"Yes."

Yang Lei took out a box of cigars from a soldier's bag not far from Li Yuanqing's back and handed it to the old man with a smile.

The old man could not help but smile, "Xie Jun ye, Xie Jun Ye."

Watching the old man and his party enter the village, Li Yuanqing withdrew his eyes, walked slowly back to the camp, and said to Yang Lei, "what do you think?"

Of course, Yang Lei understood Li Yuanqing's deep meaning. After thinking for a moment, he said in a low voice: "marshal, along the way, the life of the common people is not optimistic. This is still in the capital. If you go to Pinggu or Yutian, I'm afraid it is... "

Li Yuanqing nodded slowly. "Do you think Tartars will send troops at the beginning of this year?"

"This..."

Yang Lei thought about it for a moment, and then said respectfully: "commander in chief, I don't know what to say for a moment. However, in view of their humble position, the Tartars entered the capital at the beginning of the year, and have almost wiped out the surrounding areas. Even if they really want to send troops, they will not take the capital again. "

Li Yuanqing smiles: "maybe. Let's go, brothers. We've worked so hard for so long. In the evening, let's have a good meal

…………

The night in the country is very quiet.

The snow had already stopped and the wind was still strong, but the whole night sky was very clear, with stars clearly visible.

It's more than ten o'clock. Except for the soldiers on duty, almost all the tents in the camp have been extinguished. Only in the open space not far away, the campfire rammed by snow crackles against the cold wind.

Li Yuanqing did not feel sleepy at this time.

Li Yuanqing was not interested even though he was surrounded by a few beautiful yingyingyingyanyan who could be picked by him at any time.With a cigar in his mouth, he leaned against the wind blowing against the big tent, quietly watching the stars all over the sky, and carefully considering the data of yesterday's court meeting.

For a long time, Li Yuanqing couldn't help laughing and shaking his head.

In fact, the Treasury of the imperial court is empty, and the money collected is not enough. It is not the wrong implementation of the government's policy, or the people below do not try their best.

The key point is that the political ideology at this time was very different from each other at the beginning of the state Dynasty. Most of the interests were in the pockets of the vested interest class. However, Emperor Chongzhen was still staring at his thin and weak pigs and sheep in his acre. How could there be a good result?

Let's go back ten thousand steps.

Nobility, power, scholar, he really can't move.

But, can we think of a way to do business tax?

But for a moment, Li Yuanqing laughed and shook his head.

The dignitaries, dignitaries and scholars of the Ming Dynasty are themselves big businessmen and businessmen. If anyone dares to make such an argument with emperor Chongzhen, they will be attacked by mad dogs in a short time.

In addition, Emperor Chongzhen's temperament

This thing It's a dead end.
