Lord of Ming Dynasty

Sitting in the lobby of Taizhou government office, Zhang Ying said to Ruan Shu and Ruan Wu who were his subordinates: "You two generals, I will rebel after surrendering this time. I'm afraid I won't be tolerated by Lord Jian Guo when I go back. You should Think about it."

Ruan Shudao: "Master Zhang, we are all generals of the Ming army. It is impossible for us to serve for a commoner. Our brothers are ready to go back and continue to serve Lord Jian Guo."

Zhang Ying said helplessly: "Well, how can we say that we are officials in the same court, so we don't have to embarrass the two of you. You lead the headquarters and Ma Ke to leave on your own. You can bring as many materials as you can."

Ruan Shudao: "Thank you, Mr. Zhang. We are going to go from Sanmen County to the sea, and from Guizhoushan. Mr. Jian Guo is short of medicine and medicine. We will bring more food and medicine. I hope you will not be offended."

Zhang Ying waved his hand, "Let's go, after you leave, I will go to the camp of the Jinhua Rebel Army to meet this rebel leader who was able to slightly defeat the Qing army. General, when Master Zhu was stationed in Wuyi County, Jinhua Mansion was breached, he led his troops to help, and personally killed the rebel Ruan Dacheng."

Ruan Shu and Ruan Wu bid farewell with fists in their hands. The two of them had a total of more than 4000 troops, of course most of them were surrendered Qing troops and Ming troops.

As soon as they left, Linhai County was empty. Zhang Ying was a naval general, and his subordinates were all naval officers and soldiers, but they were only in the early 3000s, and the surrendered troops were no more than [-]. The other Qing soldiers either fled or was killed.

Poor Fan Shaozu's [-] Qing army fell apart like this.

In the afternoon, a pontoon bridge was erected on the Lingjiang River. Du Ge led the army through the pontoon bridge and officially took over the capital city of Taizhou and Linhai County.

Zhang Ying is also very anxious at the moment. He is the governor of Jingyang in the court of Lu Jianguo. It is a bit unreasonable for him to want a rebel general to surrender. If he does not surrender, he has no way to retreat. He and Ruan Shu brothers are eager to get rid of the Qing army. They still have a little bit in their hearts. The thoughts of Ming's courtiers.

With such an ambivalence in mind, he took the navy general and went out of the city to meet Zhang Qiang.

"Criminal Zhang Ying, kowtow to the general." Zhang Ying saw Zhang Qiang lying on the slum, and fell to the ground first, followed by his generals in the navy.

Zhang Qiang looked at such a veteran of the Ming Dynasty, bowed down in front of his bed, and quickly stretched out his hand, "Please rise up, the old general. The old general understands the righteousness and returned to the Ming Dynasty. This is very encouraging. I believe many people have heard that the old general has returned to the Ming Dynasty." The news will certainly be overwhelming, and they will follow the example of the old generals and raise the banner of anti-Qing and Ming Dynasty again. My Ming Dynasty will have more warriors to fight against the Tartars, and the Tartars will be driven out of the land of China."

Zhang Ying's heart skipped a beat. This leader of the rebel army is not simple. This is to publicize himself and let the Qing army know that he has surrendered to the Jinhua rebel army. He will have no way out in the future. Stay safe.

But at this moment, he couldn't go back on his word. Seeing the Qing army's defeat at that time, he was excited, so he discussed with Ruan Shu brothers to kill the Qing army tartars, and persuaded the green battalion soldiers to attack other Han army banner troops together.

It was done, but I forgot that I was still surrounded by others. The Qing army surrounded the Jinhua Rebel Army, and the Jinhua Rebel Army surrounded them again.

"I heard that General Zhang Ying is the commander of the navy?" Zhang Qiang asked warmly with a warm smile on his face.

"Yes, the last general was originally a Taihu water bandit. Later, he was recruited and became the commander of the Daming Navy. Lu Jianguo loved me so much that he named me the captain of the navy and the governor of Jingyang."

"Well, since you have decided to go anyway, then we are a family. I will arrange a thousand soldiers to be under your command. At the same time, you will teach them the art of sailing and sailing. I don't know what the general thinks?"

"The last will obey."

Zhang Ying was also very happy to hear that Zhang Qiang added a thousand soldiers to him.

Zhang Qiang said again: "I have ordered my general Xuanyuan Longfei to lead [-] troops to capture Taizhou County. You lead the navy to coordinate and wipe out all enemy troops who dare to fight us, and take all the villages and seaports by the seaside of Taizhou Prefecture. , Take it all back."

"Yes, at the end will obey."

Zhang Qiang is very satisfied, and he still wants to fight. Once he fights, he will have generals, captives, and labor that is scarce in the territory. Excluding captives who died for various reasons, escaped, and captives who later added to the army, he now There are still 7000 captives, which is a lot of manpower.As for the generals, they got Tang Dianfeng and Zhang Ying.

"Take Taizhou for me in three days, and recover the capital of Taizhou." Zhang Qiang said to the generals.

"Yes. Master Du Si." All the generals shouted together.

Three days later, Zhang Qiang, supported by the cavalry guards, stood on the roof of Taizhou Mansion, looking at Xishan, Beishan, and the entire Lingjiang River.

Xuanyuan Longfei and Zhang Ying led an army of more than [-] people to attack Taizhou County.

Zhang Qiang's army is currently under the command of Du Ge, and the soldiers have been replenished and formed, and have regained their combat effectiveness.

The wounded were placed on the spot in Linhai County, and the captives were transported back to Jinhua Mansion in batches. There were many fields waiting to be reclaimed, and many roads and docks waiting to be repaired.

Compared with the mountainous terrain of Jinhua Mansion, Taizhou Mansion is close to the sea and has a much larger population than Jinhua Mansion, roughly 20 or more. Now Zhang Qiang's territory has a population of 36 to [-].

Standing beside Zhang Qiang, Zhou Porridge chatted with Zhang Qiang while enjoying the scenery, and said with some regret: "If there are more generals and troops, we can take down Tiantai County and Sanmen County, and then approach Wenzhou Prefecture. It is said that there is a large population, at least 50, and the business is prosperous, and the annual business tax is huge."

Zhang Qiang said with a smile: "Slowly we will bring those lands into our control, and there will be money."

"By the way," Zhou Porridge seemed to think of something, "Although we didn't catch that old fellow Fan Shaozu in this battle, we caught a group of foreign devils. How do you deal with them, my lord?"

"Foreign devils?" Zhang Qiang touched his forehead, "How many people are there, from which country?"

Chapter 86 can train junior officers

Meeting the Portuguese at this time was not a good thing. They were captured in the Qing army and were captured on the battlefield. This proved that the Portuguese had seen that the Qing army might unify the Ming Dynasty, and they were ready to cooperate with the Qing army.

So the question before Zhang Qiang was whether he wanted to add a Portuguese to his list of enemies. The Portuguese robbers did not change their character, and took advantage of Nanming's weakness to seize Xiangshan and the territory of two counties. Their ambitions were exposed, and maybe they would have friction with the Qing army in the future, but now the Qing army has no time to take care of them, instead wanting them to contain the Nanming army, this is a needless thing to think about.

The enemy of the enemy is your own friend. The Tartars are very good at finding opportunities and exploiting loopholes. Every time Li Zicheng and other Nong Ming troops launched an offensive against Ming, they took the opportunity to cross the Great Wall defense line and attack Daming. Years, every time they return with full rewards, this is not something a group of barbarians can do.

"Kill them." Zhang Qiang turned to Zhou Porridge.

Zhou Congee was surprised, "My lord, those Hongyi people are not easy to fool. Those who killed them, we have created another big enemy. We have just arrived at the seaside, and we still need to do business with them. If those who kill them, we will lose money in the future." How to do business?"

Zhang Qiang rubbed his chin and said: "Both snakes and rats, since they want to seek refuge with Manqing, they will sooner or later be our enemies, this time teach them a little lesson, next time, they will know that we are not easy to get along with, go carry it out! "

Zhou Porridge hesitated, "Sir, think about it, our muskets are very old, damaged a lot and need to be replaced, why don't we use them as hostages and bring back some muskets?"

Zhang Qiang shook his head, "It's useless, isn't it just a few Portuguese, and they are not nobles, they won't be so stupid, hand over the musket to you, and change a few useless people, maybe their families want to use money to redeem them, but do we need that little money from their family now?"

Zhou Porridge shook his head, just joking, this time he defeated Fan Shaozu, and captured 40 shi of grain alone, and 70 taels of silver, enough for Zhang Qiang's current nearly [-]-strong army for a long time.

After sending Zhou Porridge away, Zhang Qiang figured out how many levels he could raise his commanding skills this time after killing so many enemies again.

As soon as I read the system silently, I heard a series of rewards.

"Congratulations, your command skill has been upgraded to level seven, and you can command 600 troops."

"Congratulations, your command skill has been upgraded to level eight, and you can command 700 troops."

"Congratulations on upgrading your coaching skill to level six. You can train more elite soldiers. The former elite soldiers of the rebel army have been reduced to elite soldiers. Now you can train elite soldiers of the rebel army. Elite soldiers can be used directly as commanders. The original elite soldiers can When they are directly used as corporal leaders, they can train soldiers by themselves. As long as they are directly under your leadership, it is equivalent to you training soldiers."

Zhang Qiang is no longer as surprised by every reward as he was when he received the system's help.

But he is still very happy with this sixth-level coaching skills. His daughter-in-law has become a mother-in-law, and he finally doesn't have to train soldiers hard every day. Give them control, and they will automatically train their soldiers, which is equivalent to training themselves.

This is equivalent to liberating oneself.

Of course, the upgraded elite rebel soldiers still need to train themselves to become elite rebel soldiers.

These upgraded elite soldiers are equivalent to sergeants.

The number of people in a class.

If the 700 people are all elite rebel soldiers, then don't I have [-] sergeants?

Each person commands ten people, that is seven thousand troops.

Now I have not only trained [-] soldiers, but I have three or four thousand troops for other subordinates.

Many of them are elite soldiers of the rebel army. Well, the elite soldiers of the former rebel army are actually equivalent to the current elite soldiers of the rebel army after upgrading their coaching skills.
