Traveling through the late Ming Dynasty: I have a super system

Chapter 80 Emperor Apocalypse Conquers Again

Sun Chengzong looked at the eight howitzers belonging to the Yiyongwei at the gate of the Jiliao Governor's Mansion, and grinned happily.Although the money is a bit expensive, this artillery is easy to use!
Sun Chengzong looked at Lin Yuhao with a smile and said: "Master Lin, look at you. You have tried to shirk before, but now you have to take out eight cannons all at once. Do you think the price should be lower?"

"Everyone is working for the court, you should understand the difficulties of the court!"

Looking at Sun Chengzong who looked like a profiteer, Lin Yuhao was speechless.Is this still a first-rank official of the imperial court?Buying a weapon is still bargaining here.

It's just helpless, he must be his guide in the officialdom.Lin Yuhao had no choice but to give his bottom line price: "Let's do this, Master Sun. A cannon costs 6000 taels of silver, and a box of shells costs 2000 taels of silver. That's the price, it can't be any cheaper."

Hearing that Lin Yuhao reduced the price so much, Sun Chengzong looked like he had succeeded in his trick: "Okay, deal. When will the gunner's training start?"

Lin Yuhao answered: "For the training, I have already written to the new Beijing Army for help. Ask Zhang Zhiji to send his gunners. I have other things to do."

"Master Supervisor, you see, I have also sent this cannon. The next thing needs to be decided by you."

Hearing what Lin Yuhao said, Sun Chengzong knew that this kid must have held back some bad water again.

that's true!From the second half of the sixth year of the Apocalypse, the Liaodong region entered a period of stability and harmony. Apart from training, the Ming army never took the initiative to attack the slave-controlled area.

Sun Chengzong looked at Lin Yuhao with his hands folded in his sleeves and said, "Well, if you have anything to say, go to the mansion and talk about it."

In the secret room of the governor's mansion in Jiliao, Lin Yuhao went straight to the point and said, "Master Supervisor, recently in Fushun, Guangning and Ningyuan. The humble staff has captured a total of twelve slave-builders, and these people are all Han Chinese who built slaves." Coated minions."

"According to their confession, they are the newly trained spies of Jiannu. The leader is Li Yongfang, the third-class lieutenant general of Jiannu. Their task is to inquire about the mobilization of our army and try to instigate against our generals as much as possible. .”

"Moreover, there is a leader among them. According to him, they are now trying to get our Thunder rifles, imitation Thunder rifles and new artillery."

"So, what I mean is. Report this matter to the imperial court and let the imperial court investigate this matter. At the same time, please Your Majesty once again to drive the conquest personally. It demonstrates the imperial court's absolute pressure to crack down on slaves, otherwise, it will take nearly a year The silence made Jiannu think that we had let our guard down."

Sun Chengzong listened to Lin Yuhao's blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah blah, thought for a while, and said, "Is it too risky to ask your majesty to go on a personal expedition again? After all, Jiannu is also accumulating strength now!"

Lin Yuhao nodded and said: "It's a little risky, but now it is. Once Jiannu learns about His Majesty's personal conquest, he will definitely wait for the opportunity to move. Once he moves, the details of Jiannu's planting in my court will be exposed."

"Without the secret work in the court, His Majesty only needs to come to Shanhaiguan with the army. As for how to fight the battle? Who to fight? Then we have to wait for His Majesty to arrive before making a decision."

When Sun Chengzong heard Lin Yuhao's words, he immediately understood what it meant: "You mean to spread false news first. Let Jiannu's concealed secret works be activated first, and after all the secret works are wiped out, then I respectfully invite Your Majesty to personally conquest, right?"

Lin Yuhao nodded and said: "That's right, I just included His Majesty in the calculation. If His Majesty is not happy, the censors in the court will have to go up and talk about things."

Sun Chengzong smiled and said: "You kid even intends to involve your majesty, are you afraid that those censors will impeach you? Well, let me write this matter to your majesty. How can I say that I am also the emperor's teacher, those censors Don’t dare to do anything to me.”

Soon, the secret book played by Sun Chengzong was in the hands of Emperor Tianqi.

After Emperor Tianqi learned about the whole plan, he immediately released the news.Said that he would once again drive to Liaodong in person at the end of May, so that all ministries and institutes would be ready for war.

After the news was released on the surface, in private, the factory security system in the court was keeping a close eye on the entire capital.See if anyone has an affair with Jiannu and spread the news.

After several years of development, Dongchang and Jinyiwei have become much stronger.In addition to the Flying Fish Clothes and the Xiuchun Knife, the current Jinyiwei has also begun to prepare imitation Thunder-style rifles in batches.

Sun Yuanhua has been transferred back to Beijing to serve as the director of the Third Grade Ordnance Supervision Institute.The Ordnance Supervision Institute is a newly established department. It was established by Emperor Tianqi's determination to reform the standard equipment of the army.

Sun Yuanhua was a capable man in making guns and cannons, so he was appointed by Emperor Tianqi as the first director of the Ordnance Supervision Institute.In addition, Sun Yuanhua also met Song Yingxing from Fengxin County through Lin Yuhao's introduction.

After the two got acquainted, they had a very happy conversation and became a year-end friendship.After he was appointed by Emperor Apocalypse as the head of the Ordnance Supervision Institute, he recommended Song Yingxing to be his assistant.

Emperor Apocalypse sent down talents in an eclectic manner, bestowing Song Yingxing with a family background, and appointed him as the sixth-rank Liaodong Armed Forces Department Sizheng of the Ordnance Supervision Institute.

With the establishment of the Ordnance Supervision Institute, the production of imitation Thunder rifles has increased a lot at once.

The Beijing Camp New Army now consists of three Musketeer Battalions and one Artillery Battalion.The artillery battalion prepared the 24 howitzers that Lin Yuhaojin dedicated to Emperor Tianqi, and was mainly responsible for the city defense of the capital.

Three Musketeer Battalions, each with 3000 men.All achieved the goal of equipping imitation Thunder rifles, which greatly improved the combat effectiveness of the new army in the Beijing camp.

It can be said that the current Emperor Apocalypse.In the capital, you can mobilize nine thousand new troops from the capital camp to work for you at any time.At the border, the Volunteer Guard, Guan Ning New Army, Ning Yuan Guard, Guang Ning Guard, and Lin Yuhao's slave-killing troops are all available for dispatch at any time.

In other words, the current Emperor Apocalypse.He became the most powerful emperor in the late Ming Dynasty after Wanli and Taichang.

As the news that Emperor Tianqi was about to personally conquer Liaodong again was continuously spread, Dongchang fanzi and Jinyiwei personnel also took action intensively.

In just over ten days, more than a dozen Liaodong Jian slaves were dispatched or bought and placed in the capital from within the capital.Some of these people are officials from the six ministries of the imperial court, and some are civil servants in the Armament Supervision Institute.

What's even more frightening is that Shaoqing of Taichang Temple has also become the eyeliner of Liaodong Jiannu.But people are actively contacting, rather than prostitution.

After this clue was discovered, Grand Duke Wei did not immediately arrest him.Instead, continue to investigate to see who is still in collusion with a dignified fourth-rank official.

On June [-]rd of the seventh year of the Apocalypse, after investigation.The judge who locked in a Taichang Hospital was also dragged into the water by Zheng Sanjun, the Shaoqing of Taichang Temple.

After obtaining conclusive evidence, Emperor Tianqi ordered to close the net.Zheng Sanjun, a party member of Donglin, was arrested and imprisoned, and all his family property and fields were confiscated and put into the treasury.The judge of the Taiyuan Hospital who colluded with him was also arrested on the charge of intending to poison the emperor.

The reason for such a crime was that Li Yansong, Deputy Qianhu of Jin Yiwei, seized the nourishing medicine that the judge was about to give to Emperor Tianqi.There are drugs that are chronically toxic in small doses.

Li Yansong was responsible for confiscating the family property of Shaoqing in Taichang Temple and arresting the imperial physician who wanted to murder the emperor.

Li Yansong was promoted to Jinyiwei Qianhu because of his meritorious service, and won the honor of accompanying Tianqi Emperor Yujia to conquer Liaodong.

On June 21, the seventh year of Tianqi, Emperor Tianqi once again led a personal expedition to Liaodong.Li Yansong, together with Guo Bin, Chen Wenjie, Huang Yunlong, Su Daqing, Zhao Zifeng, Yang Tianming and Luo Yanzuo of the deputy thousand households, led the six hundred brocade guards to accompany them.

Fang Zhenghua, the supervisor of ceremonies, led the six hundred Dongchang fans to Liaodong to contact His Majesty about the stationing in Shanhaiguan.

In this expedition, Zhang Zhiji led [-] new troops from the Beijing camp to follow Emperor Tianqi on the expedition.

In addition to being equipped with imitation thunder rifles and Tianqi three-year thunderbolt bullets, the new army of the Beijing camp is also equipped with the defensive light armor carefully designed by Lin Yuhao for the new army of the Beijing camp.

The light armor is made of alloy steel, and a complete set includes: helmet, upper body armor, nail leaves and gauntlets.The full set only weighs nine catties, but its defense power far exceeds that of an armor weighing forty catties.

After the new set of armor was designed, it was dedicated to Emperor Tianqi.Then the imperial court funded the purchase of materials from Lin Yuhao, and it was manufactured by the Ordnance Supervision Institute.

For example, during the capture of the Jiannu in the capital this time, lurking personnel were dispatched, and five hundred catties of alloy steel were seized.These are all people in the Ordnance Supervision and Manufacturing Institute. The guards stole and planned to sell them to Liaodong Jiannu at a high price.

Fortunately, it was discovered in time, otherwise Jiannu would have obtained alloy steel continuously.And create muskets and defensive armor comparable to the new army of Ming Dynasty.

Here in Liaodong, on the one hand, arrangements were made to welcome Shengjia.On the one hand, they also handed over to Fang Zhenghua all the slave-building activities that were captured and active in the area from Shanhaiguan to Guangning.

After receiving the information that Emperor Apocalypse personally conquered Liaodong, Huang Taiji ordered Li Yongfang to send more agents to sneak into Liaodong.Collect all kinds of information, including what kind of strategic deployment Emperor Tianqi made after he came to Liaodong.

Unfortunately, all this is just a false bait thrown out.Before Tianqi Emperor really drove to Liaodong, a total of 23 newly infiltrated slave workers were captured.

On June 28, the seventh year of Tianqi, the imperial driver of Emperor Tianqi arrived at Shanhaiguan.

On the second day, a military meeting before the imperial court was held, at which Lin Yuhao proposed his own military plan.The Ming army went to the grassland to support an obedient grassland tribe and suppress other grassland tribes.

On the current grassland, the Horqin tribe is the best friend with Lin Yuhao.

Armed with 12 pairs of fine steel pulley bows, 25 pairs of fine steel pulley crossbows, and [-] Mamluk scimitars, they became the most powerful tribe on the grassland.

Emperor Tianqi was very excited about Lin Yuhao's proposal.

"Lin Aiqing, what you said is to take advantage of the fact that the tribes in Mongolia have conflicts with each other, divide and disintegrate them. This is very good, but why support the Horqin tribe?"

Lin Yuhao replied: "Your Majesty, when the old slave chief was here, he both wooed and suppressed the Horqin tribe, which led to the tribal leader Datai Jibu's reconciliation. He has long been dissatisfied with Liaodong Jiannu. Slave get ready."

"As for the other tribes on the grassland, it is different. They are in danger of being recruited by Jiannu to fight against our Ming Dynasty. Therefore, it is in the interests of our dynasty to support the Horqin tribe and suppress other Mongolian tribes."

After listening to Lin Yuhao's analysis, Emperor Tianqi thought for a while and said: "Well, what Lin Aiqing said is right. My Ming Dynasty's border defense is not limited to Liaodong. Once Jiannu invades Liaodong, those tribes on the grassland that are ready to move will invade again I am going to check other places on the border of Ming Dynasty. Then I will be caught in the dilemma of fighting on two fronts."

"How about it, Lin Aiqing, this time we will use troops against the Mongolian tribes. You will still be in charge of the command, and I will wait for the good news from you in Shanhaiguan."

When Lin Yuhao heard this, he was once again entrusted with an important task by Emperor Tianqi.Immediately knelt down and said: "Chen, Lin Yuhao accepts the order. I will definitely live up to your Majesty's expectations and clean up all the people with different intentions on the Mongolian grassland for your Majesty."
