I gather power with my gift of God and build the heaven

The reason why Chen Ying was not assigned to the new recruit camp was not because Chen Ying was a court official, so Wang Chao looked up to him.

It was because Chen Ying should also know some military affairs.

Such a "talent" should not be wasted by being an ordinary soldier.

After a little hesitation, Wang Chao said:

"Get up! We don't kneel here!"

Hearing Wang Chao's words, Chen Ying couldn't help but feel happy, and finally he could survive.

However, despite this, Chen Ying still bowed respectfully.

"Yes! Yes! Thank you, boss!"

Then, Chen Ying stood up.

"Hey, don't call me the boss, just call me the leader with them."

"Yes! Leader!"

"Well

You just joined us, and there are still many things you are not familiar with.

Now, you will follow Instructor Wu Ping and be a deputy instructor.

See if there are any shortcomings in our military training, and you can also express your opinions and point out some shortcomings in our training.

In addition, you will also hold the title of staff officer in the General Staff Department, and work with Chief of Staff Wang Sanshun to sort out some military strategies you know and write them into a book."

"This"

After hearing this, Chen Ying's face clearly showed a trace of struggle and hesitation.

Although it is said that thanks to the policies of Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, the literacy rate of the Ming Dynasty is still very high.

However, when it comes to high-end knowledge such as military affairs and imperial examinations, it is still very conservative and will not be easily passed on.

Even many private skills will not be easily taught to the outside world.

For example, Zhou Tie, the head of the Weapons Manufacturing Bureau, and Zhou Yan, the general consultant, and his son.

At the beginning, he was not even willing to teach blacksmithing skills.

However, their family was all in Niaoshu Mountain, and there was no other choice except to teach people how to forge iron and forge weapons according to Wang Chao's requirements.

But even so, some of his more core and unique skills were kept secret.

According to tradition, it would probably be passed on to his son Zhou Jie in the future.

Wang Chao did not force him too much.

His current requirements for standard weapons have not reached the point where they must be exquisite.

With their current conditions, it is a luxury for everyone to be equipped with swords and guns, not to mention how sophisticated the weapons are.

After all, having a blacksmith does not mean that swords can be made.

After all, materials are needed to forge swords and guns.

Up to now, in more than ten days, more than a hundred people have forged weapons with Zhou Tie, but only three or four hundred have been made.

One reason is that these people need to learn, and the other is that the iron materials will be exhausted, so they are still saving them.

Although Wang Chao has sent people down the mountain to find ways to buy iron materials.

But it is not so easy to find sellers for a while.

Nowadays, not many people are willing to trade with these bandits.

Well, if they find those big merchants and spend more silver, there should be no problem.

After all, they can sell their country to the grassland and Jianzhou Tartars, so they naturally don’t mind selling it to him, a bandit.

Of course, the best way is that they have their own iron ore, ironmaking furnace, etc.

It’s a pity that they don’t have that condition now.

Otherwise, Wang Chao really wants them to study blast furnace ironmaking, steelmaking and the like.

It’s a pity that Wang Chao was just an ordinary person in his previous life, and he only knew the concept of blast furnace ironmaking and steelmaking.

Otherwise, as long as they have raw materials, they don’t have to worry about sophisticated weapons, and they can guarantee that every piece is a fine steel weapon.

And now, they can only make them by hand for the time being.

If they can really settle down in the future, he must have people study blast furnace ironmaking and steelmaking.

However, these are all later stories, so let’s not talk about them for now.

In short, this world still values ​​knowledge very much, and generally will not easily teach others.

Similarly, Chen Ying did not want to tell others about the military strategies he knew.

Even though the military strategies he knew were far inferior to those of the military nobles, he still did not want to teach others easily.

Seeing his hesitation, Wang Chao's face sank slightly, and a compelling aura emanated.

"What? Don't want to?"

"Ah~!"

Chen Ying reacted suddenly, and he was really confused. He didn't even look at the time now. It was good enough to be alive, but he still cared about the so-called military strategies that were not worth mentioning.

"How could it be? How could it be? The subordinates must do their best to complete the things ordered by the leader.

I was just recalling some military strategies I knew so that I could copy them down later."

Hearing Chen Ying say this, Wang Chao smiled.

"Well, I know that Deputy Instructor Chen, Staff Officer Chen is a man who knows the big picture."

"Haha, no, no, it's all because of the leader's good guidance that I realized my past narrow-mindedness."

"Well, Sanshun, take Staff Officer Chen down to make arrangements."

"Yes, leader!"

Wang Sanshun saluted and came to Chen Ying's side.

Looking at Wang Sanshun's actions, Chen Ying, who was originally preparing to kneel down and salute, thought of Wang Chao's previous statement that kneeling was not allowed here, so he could not help but clumsily imitate Wang Sanshun's actions and also saluted Wang Chao and his men.

When the dynasty accepted Chen Ying's surrender and reorganized the team, Li Wenwen, the county magistrate of Weiyuan County, sat on the bamboo chair with dull eyes.

On the side were the county magistrate Wuchang, who was equally stunned, and the chief clerk Wu Duoyun, as well as a government official reporting the news.

After nearly two days, the news of Chen Ying's defeat and capture finally reached Weiyuan County.

"How could this happen? How could this happen?

This Chen camp is one of the 100 households in the Ming Dynasty Guards House, and the people recruited have been trained for nearly a month.

how come? How could it be defeated like this?

Are those bandits really that powerful? .”

"Sir, what should we do now?

What if, what if the thieves attack the county? With our current guard strength, it is unstoppable."

Wu Duoyun, the chief clerk next to him, couldn't help but ask with some panic when he saw the magistrate Li Wenwen looking helpless.

"How to do how to do?"

Li Wenwen murmured to himself.

How could he know what to do at this time?

"Sir, now that the matter has come to an end, we can only report it to the city."

At this time, Wuchang had gradually recovered from the previous shock. Seeing the appearance of the two people, he couldn't help but curse in his heart.

This person hasn't been killed yet, so why are you so confused and panicked? The greed and cunning of the past are completely gone.

However, at this time, everyone was like grasshoppers on the same line. They couldn't escape them, and they couldn't escape him.

Therefore, although he kept criticizing in his heart, he still put forward his suggestions to the county magistrate Li Wenwen.

"Yes, yes, let's report it to the magistrate immediately. I immediately wrote a request for help and had it sent to Taonan Mansion."

At this moment, Li Wenshu no longer cares about his political achievements. He will save his own life first.

Weiyuan County, which belongs to Lintao Prefecture in the northwest, is about a hundred miles away from Weiyuan County.

If we hurry up, it will only take less than a day.

Therefore, at noon on the second day, Ma Wenchang, the prefect of Lintao Prefecture, received Li Wenshu's request for help and couldn't help but cursed.

"How dare a group of rioters and bandits dare to be so rampant? The magistrate of Weiyuan County, Li Wenwen, and hundreds of households in Chenying are all useless snacks. Even a group of rioters and bandits can't suppress them. "

"boom!"

"Clang!"

After getting angry for a while, Ma Wenchang sat down with a gloomy face and slapped the table with a heavy palm, almost knocking the tea cup over.

Although he is extremely annoyed and angry, he still needs to take care of what should be taken care of. After all, this is also his jurisdiction. He can't just sit back and watch the bandits develop and grow, right?

Moreover, judging from the information in Li Wenwen's newspaper, there must be at least one to two thousand bandits.

Even if Li Wenwen exaggerated, the number of one thousand should be there.

If ignored, this will cause big trouble.

"Here comes someone!"

"grown ups!"

A guard walked in quickly and bowed.

"Well, let's go to Taozhou Guard and ask Zheng Wanchun, the commander of Taozhou Guard, to come and discuss matters!"

"Yes, sir!"

Because it was already late, Taozhou Guard Commander Zheng Wanchun did not arrive until the next day.

After explaining the situation, Zheng Wanchun's expression became serious. One or two thousand bandits gathered, which was no longer a small number.

"I will mobilize two battalions of troops to encircle and suppress those bandits.

It’s just that Mr. Ma also knows that if the three armies are not moved, food and grass will go first. Coupled with the deployment of troops, it cannot be completed in one or two days."

Ma Wenchang frowned a little after listening to Zheng Wanchun's words.

"This is just a group of bandits."

“But after all, they have one or two thousand people, plus they occupy Niao Mouse Mountain, and they plundered a lot of money and food.

If they stick to Niaoshu Mountain, it won’t be so easy to wipe them out.”

"this"

Ma Wenchang frowned slightly, but finally agreed with this statement and could only sigh and said:

“Then please General Zheng as soon as possible.

Every night, the people of Weiyuan County will be tortured by bandits."

"That food and grass supplies"

"Well I will arrange for someone to prepare it!"

Although Ma Wenchang didn't want to pay for the money and food, he had to pay.

You can't let the horse run again without giving it grass, right?

Even if you give less, you still have to give.

And just as Ma Wenchang, Zheng Wanchun and others were preparing to suppress the bandits, and Chao Chao and others were training their troops hard, time passed quietly, and several days passed quickly.

On August 23, in the Wenhua Hall of the Imperial Palace in Shuntian Mansion in the capital, King Xin Zhu Youjian knelt on the ground. Behind him, the British Duke Zhang Weixian, the first assistant Huang Liji and other ministers and officials knelt in a dark area.

Just yesterday, August 22, Emperor Tianqi Zhu Youxiao finally passed away after struggling for a month.

At this time, Wang Tiqian was reading out the edict of Emperor Daxing and Emperor Tianqi Zhu Youxiao, and Wei Zhongxian stood behind him with a dull expression.

"...the emperor's fifth brother believes in the king, is smart and writes early, has a benevolent and filial nature, and loves to follow the instructions of his ancestors and his brothers. The preface of Pi Shaolun is the emperor's throne.

Strive to cultivate virtues, be close to the wise and accept the rules, teach diligently and be diligent in government, be tolerant of people's livelihood, strictly maintain borders, and avoid excessive damage. All civil and military ministers, both internal and external, work together to assist, abide by the rules and regulations, and protect the snow map.

Due to announcements at home and abroad.

Admire this! "

"Long live Long live Long live!"

Zhu Youjian and the civil and military officials behind him immediately bowed down and shouted loudly.

From then on, Xin Wang Zhu Youjian, the last emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Chongzhen, was about to usher in his era.

It was also an era of peasant uprisings and the constant attack of the Jianzhou Jurchens on the border.

Soon, the Tianqi Emperor passed away, and the edict of Xin Wang Zhu Youjian, Chongzhen's succession to the throne was announced to the world.

Lintao Prefecture, the prefect Ma Wenchang, and the commander of Taozhou Guard Zheng Wanchun, sat in the hall and looked at each other, not knowing what to do for a while.

They had already made preparations to send troops.

But at this time, an imperial edict came down from above, saying that Tianqi Emperor Zhu Youxiao had passed away, and Xin Wang Zhu Youjian, Emperor Chongzhen, succeeded to the throne.

When they got the news, they were all numb.

If they started a war at this time and exposed the problem of soldiers and bandits in the jurisdiction, would it cause displeasure to the newly succeeded emperor?

So, for the sake of safety, should we postpone the bandit suppression for some time?

Thank you all for your support! .:*
