Lord of Ming Dynasty

These punishment regulations are posted directly on the bulletin board at the gate. Every outsider who enters the gate has to study there for an hour first, and then the gate officials will randomly check you. If you pass the spot check, you can enter the territory of the Huaxia Army.

Alas, in fact, you see, the Huaxia Army's censorship of foreigners is extremely strict, it can be said to be outrageous, and extremely strict.

For people who go out, such as merchants at sea, they have to go to the isolation camp first, and carry out disinfection and isolation. The personnel of the criminal department will ask you if you have committed other maritime crimes against the Chinese army at sea. For other personnel, have you heard of anyone committing crimes? Inquire After that, it was the review by the officials of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. After that, for those with official positions, they had to be reviewed by the personnel of the Ministry of Supervision. It can be said that the Huaxia Army is simply not human. "

Zheng Chenggong was a little stunned. The level of civil defense has never been seen before or since.

Feng Xin said again: "And I heard that the Huaxia Army often conducts internal investigations, such as how many households there were in your village before, how many households there are now, whether they have registered, whether there have been any visitors recently, where the visitors came from, and whether there is an identity issued by the Huaxia Army. Prove that all of these need to be filed in triplicate, one in the local township, one in the local county government, and one in the local government. I heard that the Ministry of Civil Affairs will also copy a copy and send it Go to the headquarters of the Ministry of Civil Affairs to file a record, and these records will be checked once a week, and if someone investigates, they can be read within a week."

Zheng Chenggong asked: "How can it be read within a week?"

Feng Daoxin: "The Huaxia Army has repaired, widened, and remodeled the roads and waterway systems in the territory since its establishment. There are special post roads. No one is allowed to use the post roads. Only post horses and post boats can go. From three Expedited from [-] miles to [-] miles, from south to north, from east to west, it is enough to send the documents within a week, and I heard that a carrier pigeon system has been developed, and the sky is full of carrier pigeons, please share News, it only takes two or three days."

The Huaxia Army is really unpredictable. Zheng Chenggong found that the more he knew about the Huaxia Army, the more he could not understand the Huaxia Army.

Feng Xin continued to hit him and said: "The king of the county has one more thing." Zheng Chenggong was already very helpless, and he just asked numbly, "What's the matter?"

Feng Xin turned around and said to his own soldiers outside the hall: "Come on, quickly send someone to my house to bring the brocade box in my study, and send people to guard it heavily, and don't tell the reason to others. People will be executed immediately."

Seeing his mysterious appearance, Zheng Chenggong couldn't help but wonder, is there anything more powerful in the Huaxia Army?

Chapter 538 Rifled flintlock gun theft incident

(Hey, I got the chapter number wrong again, so let’s just make up for it, this chapter will continue like this, and the next chapter will be normal.)

Seeing Feng Xin holding a long brocade box mysteriously, Zheng Chenggong asked depressedly: "What is it again, why is it so mysterious?"

Feng Xin opened it carefully, and said to Zheng Chenggong: "Your Majesty, please look, this is the latest rifled flintlock gun of the Huaxia Army. I have seen one from the Dutch before, but that one has a natural quality compared to this one." The difference is that the kind that needs to be ignited with a matchstick is still extremely bad, it can’t compare to this gun, this gun can be fired in rainy days, and there is no need to worry about the heavy rain wetting the match and the gunpowder in the gunpowder store.”

Zheng Chenggong picked up the gun suspiciously. His hands were extremely heavy and cold. Judging from his years of military experience, he felt that the gun was very good, very good. The gun body was exquisitely made, extremely gorgeous, and exuded a smell of gun oil , the gun body is not long, almost 1.2 meters long, which is 1.8 meters, two meters long, compared with the original Portuguese matchlock gun, which is very short and capable for a gun that can be used as a spear.

But Zheng Chenggong still likes the kind of arquebus that can be used as a spear, and doesn't like this kind of short musket.

It can be used as a spear. If the enemy jumps on the boat and pokes it, he will die. This kind of gun, if there is no ammunition, is too short to be used as a hammer to hit people. It can't beat an ax or a long sword.

"What is this?" Tan patiently asked Feng Xin.

"This is the latest firearm of the Huaxia Army. This kind of firearm has a long range and a high rate of fire. It doesn't require much training. A recruit can pick it up and hit the enemy. Unlike arquebus, you need to gather at least five people, yes Only by shooting alone can the bullet hit the enemy with a high probability, this is simply a magic weapon, there is absolutely nothing wrong with shooting wherever you point.”

After hearing Feng Xin's words, Zheng Chenggong was a little moved. He pointed out that it only takes a very short time for recruits to use it to form combat effectiveness. So what would happen if his troops were equipped with this kind of gun?

Now his troops are still equipped with the first-generation Jinkai 1 matchlock gun sold to him by the Huaxia Army, which is still the simplest kind of matchlock gun. The matchlock guns of this kind are of course better quality than those imitated by the Qing and Ming armies, and inferior to the matchlock guns used by the Thais and Westerners. After all, it is impossible for anyone to sell good goods to others and use the same good things as others.

In fact, he has learned many times that the weapons and equipment of the Huaxia Army have been upgraded to a level that is more than ten generations behind this kind of matchlock gun, but he is not indifferent, but has only obtained two or three generations of matchlock guns that are almost two or three generations better than Jinkai 1 matchlock guns. Jin Kai 2 matchlock guns, this is still a good time with the Huaxia Army, the Huaxia Army sold him a batch of only two or three thousand pieces, equipped with his guards, and those trusted generals under his command only had about a dozen Jin Kai guns 2 Matchlock guns, now that the Huaxia Army has produced this kind of weapon again, he feels itchy in his heart, but he can't talk to the Huaxia Army, because the relationship with the Huaxia Army has been repeated several times, and the Huaxia Army is guarding against him.

No matter how many times I wanted to buy it, I couldn’t get it. The Huaxia Army is not as talkative as before. No matter how good the relationship is, they won’t sell them good things. Otherwise, it was the Jinkai 1 matchlock gun used by the Huaxia Army in the past, and the others would not be sold to them.

This is also one of the reasons why Zheng Chenggong and the Huaxia Army turned their faces.

"How did you get this kind of gun?" Zheng Chenggong knew that the Huaxia Army would always keep new weapons hidden and would not let others get them easily.

Feng Xin said quietly: "We got this from killing an officer who was stationed here by the Huaxia Army. Now the Huaxia Army is still looking for the murderer all over the world, but they can't possibly know that we did it. We put the murderer all over the place." It was killed and left traces, leading the attention of the Huaxia Army to the Spaniards who came to Manila to trade with us."

"Isn't the Huaxia Army always strict? How did you get the chance?" Zheng Chenggong asked in disbelief.

Feng Xin said with a smile: "They are like this on the mainland of Daming, but they can't be so strict in Baozhong Mansion. This is our territory, and we can infiltrate it wherever we want, although it is also implemented here. The same system, but it is still very troublesome to implement. We have many people from all corners of the country, such as the ancient Baodao people who came from the inland, and the savages hidden among the mountains. Barbarians, do they have to investigate these people when they encounter them? Is the investigation clear?"

"That's right, that is to say, we have a way to deal with the Huaxia Army here. Baodao is surrounded by the sea, and there are too many infiltrated places. The Huaxia Army is unable to control so many places." Zheng Chenggong nodded and explained to himself. .

"Well, yes, we couldn't get it before because the troops stationed here used Jinkai 1 matchlock guns similar to ours. Didn't they change troops later?

I heard that the higher the ranking of the Huaxia Army, the more elite the troops are, and the more powerful the weapons they are equipped with. The new type, the Sixth Field Brigade and the Third Field Brigade transferred this time are truly elite troops. They just came down from the front line. They have also undergone countless refits of the Huaxia Army. The main weapon in their hands now is the new Jinkai 2 matchlock gun that has been refitted a dozen times. Some elite regiments even carry smoothbore flintlock guns that are similar to this gun. , What the officer's personal guard is holding is the rifled flintlock we are holding in our hands now. "

To be honest, Zhang Qiang did not expect that such a thing would happen when he forgot to transfer his most elite troops to Treasure Island. This kind of thing could not be avoided even in later generations. What I often play is this kind of killing elite army officers, obtaining intelligence or intercepting important weapons and equipment, and understanding the enemy's advanced weapons or military deployment by myself.

Defense by day and night, Zhang Qiang never thought that he would be so negligent, and he still doesn't know it yet.

What is he doing now?

Of course, it is working day and night, making people day and night, finishing official business and private affairs every day, and creating so-called princes or princesses of the Huaxia Army for the group of officials who are living treasures, so as to calm their hearts. His officials are the greatest happiness. Of course, Zhang Qiang also feels very happy, because the wage earners who are rich, have a house, and are famous can win the favor of women in future generations?

Now I not only have a house, but such a large Governor's Mansion belongs to him in name, occupying an area that is about the size of a town in later generations. With such a big house, in later generations, I can marry ten or eight good-looking female stars. .

Of course, it would be better if there is no so-called painful law of halving monogamous property, because later generations are a confusing world, women always think about getting married and then divorce, and then legally divide your property. It is the most uncomfortable law for men.

After working hard for half my life, I always thought that I could find a wife who loves me and loves me to grow old together, but in the end I got a vixen, a wife who only likes your property, someone else's wife.

Men in later generations generally lack a sense of security, but men in Daming are the happiest now, let alone grow old together, there are mythical couples, and they are not just the kind of happiness in the legends in the books.

A young scholar, even a poor boy can have a wife, and a wife who will accompany him all his life.

After running far away, here is still Zhang Qiang, who is fighting for hegemony in Ming Dynasty, not the hard-working wage earner of later generations.

Zhang Qiang finally watched the dispute between Nanming and Li Dingguo. After the war escalated step by step, he continued to raise his bets on Li Dingguo. As for how to deal with Li Dingguo's development in the future, Zhang Qiang made up his mind and asked him to develop in Southeast Asia. Emperor Li took revenge. After killing that capricious villain Bai Mang, the Han people will no longer be in the world.

Chapter 539 Li Dingguo and Nanming Kingdom's First Battle

Li Dingguo looked at the neat formation of the Nanming Army in the distance, and saw that the formation on his side was crooked. You crowded and pushed each other, and it was in chaos. They couldn't gather together, he didn't make any adjustments, this was just an appetizer before the battle, he knew that the troops on his side lacked the training and experience in firearms combat, the kind of firearms battles fought between Ming and Qing in the past were purely Just for fun, even the battle between him and Kong Youde in Guilin Mansion was earned by his own life, not a firearms army-to-firearms army battle with the enemy.

This time he was going to have such a battle with the enemy.

This was an encounter in the field. After clearing away his rebellious subordinates, Li Dingguo gathered an army of [-], including three new army brigades, two cavalry brigades, one artillery brigade, and [-] soldiers and horses; The southern spearmen are all newly recruited young and strong soldiers, about [-] soldiers and horses; Park swordsman, two thousand cavalry.

There are more than 3 chieftain soldiers and horses attached to him.

And the generals attached to their own side are actually relatively independent soldiers and horses, more than 3000 people. Among these people are soldiers and horses led by generals who have recently surrendered to the Qing army, and some generals who used to belong to themselves but rebelled After being scared by himself, the soldiers and horses of the generals who reattached to him, as well as the soldiers and horses of the Nanming Army who newly joined him.

The eight thousand elite troops directly under his own are all wearing light and strong full-body armor sold to him by the Huaxia Army. They are holding spears made of fine steel, broadswords, and Huaxia Army-style bows and crossbows. They have a long range, are silent, and are sharp. The war horses are all Mongolian war horses and Western war horses bred by the Huaxia Army over the years, or Western war horses imported from foreign Thais and Westerners. These three kinds of war horses are matched together. After these years of cultivation, they finally cultivated a kind of good endurance. Whether it is a short-distance charge or a long-distance trek, they are all very good horses. He called them Huaxia Army Horses.

These weapons and armors are only equipped with the troops directly under him, and even the military uniforms are the dark green Huaxia Army uniforms that are pretty and look the same. Li Dingguo's Li character is embroidered on the military uniforms, indicating that this is Li Dingguo's direct subordinates. The troops are his Li Dingguo's troops.

Several firearms units of the new army were led by Du Ge, and his generals stepped in to direct the operations.

The weapons and equipment they used were Yishui's latest Jinkai 1 matchlock guns, which were the finalized version of the Jinkai 1 matchlock guns. They were more advanced than the original finalized version obtained by the Nanming Army on the opposite side, and had a longer range. The quality is better, a recruit can operate without special training, can shoot, and can hit things. Compared with the same recruits of the Nanming Army, they are faster and faster. This is the result Du Ge told him.

The artillery is the artillery of the Huaxia Army's Golden Reform 1 and the Golden Reform 2 matchlock gun era. This is better than the artillery imitated by the Nanming Kingdom itself and the artillery sold to them by the Huaxia Army. Of course, the Huaxia Army still sold better artillery to the Nanming Kingdom. And matchlock guns, such as Jinkai 2 matchlock guns.

All these weapons were sold to him by the Huaxia Army, and the Huaxia Army also sold some of the latest and finalized matchlock guns of Jinkai 2, which are also the final finalized matchlock guns. The Huaxia Army will no longer improve that kind of matchlock gun, because there is no excavation The Huaxia Army has now fully installed the finalized model of the Jinkai 2 matchlock gun. This kind of matchlock gun has a rough rifling line, which is different from the final finalized version of the Jinkai 2 sold outside. , The takeaway type has no rifling, and the bullets used are not miniature bullets.

About one-fifth of the troops were armed with smooth-bore flintlocks, one-tenth of the troops were equipped with rifled flintlocks, and about one-twentieth were equipped with the most advanced breech rifled flintlocks.

Compared with the Huaxia Army, the weapons and equipment of this unit are far inferior, but compared to the Nanming Army, the firearms and equipment of the Nanming Army who betrayed the Huaxia Army, Li Dingguo's troops are still two grades higher.

However, advanced weapons do not necessarily win the war. The battle between the two sides still requires the final decisive battle of the cold weapon forces.

For those who betrayed him, Li Dingguo gave them a chance to be the vanguard of the entire army to attack the enemy face to face. Now that they were bombarded by the enemy's artillery, it was the troops of those people who fled in all directions.

Those people's army weapons were collected by Li Dingguo from the warehouse and replaced them. The clothes were the clothes of the Ming army, and some were even the clothes of the Qing army, or the clothes of the chieftains in the mountains. There are all kinds of clothes. The only difference is that they have A dark green armband issued by Li Dingguo, indicating that they belong to their own troops.
