Lord of Ming Dynasty
Page 733
Afterwards, Li Ya and the others suffered heavy losses, and Jin Lin and the others obeyed Li Ya's leadership. Finally, after experiencing the storm, the balance of power changed again. Li Ya and his team were severely injured, and the 300 people on their side also became More than 100 people were invited.
After fleeing, they were the ones who suppressed Li Ya and the others. Even if they followed Li Ya and the others, some people wanted to leave, some wanted to return to Wen Ruxin's team, and some wanted to return to the Huaxia Empire. But after the storm, the two became evenly matched opponents, and no one could do anything to the other, so they could only hold together to keep warm. When they came to the island, their strength was greatly weakened by Li Ya. After the increase of Han people, they became a minority group.
As a last resort, when Li Ya finally selected the officer corps, the few remaining officers joined Li Ya's officer corps and became a member of 41 people, becoming an absolute force under Li Ya's command.
At the most deceitful time, there were only forty of them under Li Ya's command, both soldiers and officers, and they were led by Sa Lei, Wu Kejing, and Li Ya.
As a member of the officer corps of the New Qin Empire, he is the upstart of this country, just like the group of people when the old emperor founded the country, look at Xuanyuan Longfei, Xiao Fei, Wei Wuji, Zhou Porridge, And to look at the group of civil servants, it is really a family of wealth. These people have controlled the officialdom and army of the entire Huaxia Empire for three generations, and became the nobles of the Huaxia Empire.
And although my great-grandfather has retired, he has passed away now, but the influence of my uncles in Anhui Province is so prominent. A small feudal official, his father was the magistrate of a state capital and then became a low-level official of the central government. After another ten or twenty years, he might become a third or fourth grade central servant.
If he is committed, he may become a general in the future, at least he can guard one side, but now he is not bad, although his rank is still a second lieutenant, he is also an extremely human minister, and he is the confidant of the leader of Li Ya. A member of the army, and an old man, now he has finally become an official like Luo Zuo, and can lead the army independently.
Although he can't guard the entire hinterland of the New Qin Empire like Luo Zuo, which is adjacent to the peninsula, he can guard the border cities like a thunderbolt.
But the headache is that this port is deep inland, and it is different from other ports. It is more than ten miles long, but very narrow and less than two miles wide. This year, the French may come to trade. This may or may not work, because if the French want to come, they must fight. If they win the fight, the French may be subdued. In the future, they will form an alliance with the French to resist the British. People, because the French and the British are natural enemies.
The key point is that the entire Newfoundland island does not produce much, and there are not many furs. After all, it is an island. No matter how big it is, it is impossible to have too many animals. It is not as wide as Siberia, with a territory of nearly [-] miles, mountains, rivers, and virgin forests. , Snow Mountain, etc., there are all kinds of beasts in it, because there are few people, so there are countless beasts.
Moreover, there are a lot of logs and medicinal materials. One advantage of Newfoundland is that it has a lot of fish, but this is just like this, and there are not many special products.
Now the primary task of the New Qin Empire is farming, yes, it is farming. There were originally more than 2 slaves, plus a few thousand imperial population.Now the slaves have gone through a winter's digestion, and after the consumption of the war, there are nearly 8000 fewer slaves, and there are more than 1 slaves left. These slaves have been eliminated for various reasons, and 4000 people have become captives. After accumulating military exploits, he became a commoner and became a member of the Huaxia Empire.
This group of people is still mercenary soldiers. Maybe after this battle is over, even if the British are not eliminated, some people will be released among the common people. The New Qin Empire is not a pure Han Empire like the Huaxia Empire. There is no way around it. If you are purely Sinicizing on the edge of the core hinterland of other Westerners, you are purely looking for death. It is a small matter that no one uses it. It is a big thing that there are not so many people to help you resist the British or other Western countries.
It can be said that Jin Lin's talent is completely unexpected how to build this castle-like city.
The reconstruction work of the town is being stepped up, and the ruins have been cleared out. Of course, the entire castle is used to garrison troops, and the port and town below are used to live in people.
When the city was captured, the two sides carried out a five-day artillery attack, so let alone the town, even the stone castle became dilapidated and incomplete. Up to now, there is no gap that was blown open. Blocking, some people don't want to go through the city gate, but directly enter and exit from the steep slope of the castle wall that was blasted, and horses can be raced on it.
This greatly affected the defense of the castle, but Jin Lin didn't know how to build it, and he didn't understand. He only knew how to fight cavalry, and he originally commanded a Chinese cavalry squadron.
It’s just that he was the only officer in the officer corps that followed this time, and the others were all officers who came here later, so Sao Tianlei trusted him more and left him here to preside over the reconstruction and defense work here. The Han Cavalry Squadron The officer was served by his deputy, a second batch of Han Chinese officers who followed Wu Kejing and the others to come here on a large scale. That guy was also a second lieutenant.
However, after the expansion of the Chinese Empire, it mainly refers to the abolition of the cavalry army, the garrison army, and the second lieutenant officer after the garrison became the largest local garrison in the Chinese Empire. A second lieutenant platoon leader who was assigned to the garrison as squad leader, and then experienced four years of experience.
As a result, he was exiled, because his family had participated in opposing the eldest prince to become the crown prince, and was involved in the struggle between the second child and the eldest child, so he was exiled.
Although the Huaxia Empire handed over the power smoothly, it doesn't mean that the princes will not fight among themselves, but compared to other dynasties, such as nine dragons seizing the heir, imprisoning the old emperor, taking power by themselves, or infighting in the palace and other dangerous struggles Generally speaking, the struggle for the throne in the Huaxia Empire is relatively mild, but in officialdom, whether you rely on the second prince, the third prince, or the fourth prince, in fact, everyone knows it well.
After the eldest prince became the crown prince, the old emperor was making way for the prince. Many old people abdicated to the advisory council and then retired. Everyone transferred power peacefully, and the sons, grandsons, and great-grandchildren of the old people became the biggest interests The winners become important officials in various places and positions, controlling the entire empire.
The old emperor is almost very old and hardly ever leaves the palace. Although he still bears the title of emperor, he has not even used the jade seal to issue imperial edicts a few times. All rights are dominated by the crown prince. He is equivalent to holding the title of crown prince. , exercising the rights of the emperor.
The first thousand and 270 chapters of Indians looking for trouble
Therefore, the officer's family was in the wrong team, so the family was exiled to the Kangding area, where the mountains are high and the roads are far away, the mountains and rivers are repeated, some places are windy and grassy, and cattle and sheep are low, and some places are high mountains and hypoxic areas. , Snow-capped mountains are also very common.
However, this kind of punishment is not too severe. Wherever they go, their level is a little higher than that of the officials who opened up wasteland, but their official positions have been reduced a lot. As far as they were serving as civil servants in the prefecture, the low could not be lower.
Later, these children were raised to be exiled in Central Asia, and served as auxiliary troops of the garrison in Central Asia. In fact, they were equivalent to the level of the overseer brigade of the New Qin Empire. This officer still has deep resentment at this time. As a result, he was directly raised and sent to the front line of Hungary to help the Russians fight. The Russians are still like that, sell them, and then retreat with their own troops, let them fight with Hungary , Finally survived, and the Russians also occupied Hungary with a smile.
They were scattered and the Russians began to capture them, so he was brought back as an officer by the intelligence officers who went there to recruit people, and eventually joined the Han Chinese army of the New Qin Empire, but was assigned to Wen Ruxin's department, and it turned out Wen Ruxin couldn't beat the British and was captured. After they came back, they were reassigned to the mercenary cavalry brigade to monitor the mercenaries.
It was still Sao Tianlei who saw that he was good, so he was transferred to the Han Chinese Cavalry Squadron to serve as Jin Lin's deputy. Now he followed Sao Tianlei and led the Han Chinese Cavalry Squadron to protect Sao Tianlei to attack Gubisburg. In order to completely block the connection between the British and the main island.
Jin Lin took a sip of wine, slightly drunk, shook his head, and drove his former deputy out of his mind, then continued to watch the people below busy.
The captives below are responsible for preparing things, and the transferred slaves are responsible for digging a long trench along the town to bury a six-meter-high log fence as a defense outside the town. The original fence has been destroyed by their artillery It was blown away. Although this fence, that is, the wall, cannot stop the enemy's attack, it can prevent wild animals from attacking the town, and it can also prevent some people from suddenly breaking into the town to destroy and attack. At least it can block the enemy's cavalry raid .
In conclusion, a wall is better than nothing.
Farther away, on the port side, a shore artillery position has been established, and the shore artillery team is directing some slaves and prisoners to push the shore artillery onto the fort.
The trestle of the pier has also been extended a bit, and the trestle has been piled up with stones to become stronger.
Behind some sandy beaches on both sides of the river, stone embankment breakwaters are being built, several miles away, and some foundations are being dug, water drained, and silt excavated. Due to insufficient manpower, it can only be done slowly.
After all the captured prisoners are screened, some will be executed, and some will be beaten into the captives. The officers must be preferentially treated prisoners, and the soldiers will be beaten into slaves like the immigrants and distributed to various places. It is too early to wait for those people, and it may not be possible.Because of the conquest of the British this time, many slaves and captives were mobilized from various places, and [-] slaves and captives were transferred from other places on the front line alone.Sweeper took away the prisoners and slaves on the front line to attack the castle.
After taking down the castle, they took away the remaining slaves and captives, but it was certainly not enough. More than 2000 people were transferred from the rear, and after 200 were left here, 800 people were sent to the front line, plus the original remaining 2000 people, about That's more than [-] people.
The army has been downsized a lot compared to the original 3000 troops, and there are only 600 people in total, so it is okay to take [-] slaves and captives, after all, that side is not as strong as this side.
Most of the captives are doing light work, but some captives are farming, plowing the fields, logging, and the slaves are doing heavy work, repairing fence walls, digging dams and river mud, and the captives have to go to logging and farming up.
There are more than 600 exiles here. Some of the two squadrons are guarding the castle, and some are also helping with the work. The cavalry squad is placed around [-] miles away to guard the tribal savages and prevent them from sneaking. A transport force transporting supplies to the front lines.
The Han squad is guarding the castle and cannot go out easily, but some people are patrolling the town and the port.
The artillery squadron is redeploying the forts inside the castle, and they have to do it themselves. At most, some people from the exile squadron will be transferred to help push the cannons and carry the shells.
The scout cavalry dispatched by a cavalry squad quickly passed the town, then turned to the winding mountain road, passed through the city gate that was blown down, and after turning a corner, came to a stone staircase composed of five-story platforms Next to him, he casually threw the reins to a guard of the guard squad who stood guard next to him, stomped and glared, ran up the stairs, and came to the fort at the corner of Lingbao.
Blocked by the guards, the cavalry solemnly reported what he wanted to report, and then waited for the guards to inform him.
Jin Lin was kissing an English woman unscrupulously. When he heard the report from his personal guard, he turned his head a little annoyed. This Chinese person would definitely move and tear her clothes, but under the gaze of so many Chinese soldiers, she still shyly covered her leaked spring with her hands.
This group was as rude and disrespectful as all the pirates and British colonists she had ever seen, but what could they do with these immigrants?I can only bear it silently, and bear the humiliation and oppression covered up, but fortunately, the money given by the Chinese officer is quite generous. Although it is not the British gold pound, that thing can pass through Europe, and the domestic British pound is not available in all countries. It is used locally, and even some territories cannot use it, but the gold pound can be used. Here, the Chinese people give a kind of banknote.
They don't want this kind of banknotes. What they want is proper precious metals, even copper coins or silver, but they just give this, and she can't help it. This is a place occupied by the Huaxia people. Maybe this kind of banknotes can be spent here. exchanged, or exchanged for other precious metal currencies.
"What's the matter?" Jin Lin who was disturbed was very angry, and asked loudly the scout of the cavalry squad who was brought up in front of him.
"Hello sir, report sir, we met some Indians about [-] kilometers away from here, and the tribal warriors who followed the cavalry squad had contacts with them, so they are almost familiar with them. People from those tribes told us This, I hope we can exchange some food or other tools with us."
"Indians, damned Indians, ruined my afternoon."
He kicked the chair next to him hard, and the British woman jumped away in fright.
The first thousand and 270 chapters of product development
Unwilling, Jin Lin went down to the bottom of the castle, and galloped out like a gust of wind with his own guards. He left the castle and came to a place one mile away from the town. There were a few Indians with their backs on their backs. Holding baskets, several soldiers from the Exile Squadron stood around them, guarding them with loaded guns. Two cavalrymen from the Han Cavalry Squad were sitting on horseback, hovering a dozen steps away.
Seeing Jin Lin galloping towards him, he immediately rode up to meet him. Jin Lin was wearing a beautiful military uniform, with his arms open, and a pair of eagle-like sharp eyes examined the Indians in front of him. He held the reins in his hand, and the horse was within a small range. Turning around, Jin Lin pointed at the Indians, and said to a member of the exile squadron on the side: "Tell me, what is it?"
The person in the Exile Squadron is an interpreter hired by the Cavalry Squadron. He was originally a tribal warrior from an Indian tribe. He is thin and small, but his eyes are very agile. .
"My lord, these compatriots of mine, no, no, they are not from our tribe, they are from the swamp tribe over there." Looking at the impatient Jin Lin with sharp eyes, the Indian boy was a little nervous, but he was still very nervous. Calm down quickly and explain things clearly.
A group of three people, hiding and shimmering, walked on the country road, walking on the paved stones from time to time, and poured a layer of earth-lime glutinous rice cake and other local method cement on the stones.
This makes the road have the appearance of cement and the hardness of stones. Although it is not very beautiful, it is stable and firm when walking on a cart. The key is to accelerate the speed of pedestrians running on the road, which is far faster than Dirt roads are much faster and much cleaner than dirt roads, because Daming does not have cars that weigh dozens of tons like later generations. Even if there are carriages for transportation, they will definitely not exceed a few tons in weight. As far as the road is concerned, it is more than enough. This is the change that Zhang Qiang brought to this era.
It can't be said how advanced or advanced it is, but it is absolutely convenient.
And with the increase of R&D personnel, it is mainly because the Huaxia Army has added other industry exams on the basis of the imperial examinations, 360 lines, and there are exams for all walks of life. Low-level personnel can get a government-certified industry qualification certificate. With these certificates, you can engage in research in related industries, and sell the research results to the government, and the government pays a certain amount of money to buy the research results.
