The fire gun of the Han army flag can definitely kill people. Zhou Shixiang no longer knows the goods, and when Qin Zhisheng takes a shot with the gun, he also knows that the fire gun is powerful. If this thing is brought close, it is not as simple as pockmarking or scalding the face according to the rumors of later generations, but it will really kill people.

The development of fire guns, although Zhou Shixiang was a soldier in his previous life, he didn’t know much about it, but he thinks that since the Shenji camp of the Ming Dynasty was able to rely on fire guns to traverse Mobei, and in the Ming Dynasty for more than 200 years, fire guns have always been The official equipment of the Ming army has never been eliminated. In this regard alone, there is no reason to explain that the fire gun of the generation is a fire stick. Because if this is the case, I am afraid that the fire gun would have been eliminated two hundred years earlier. What a heroic figure of Ming Chengzu back then, how could a sergeant be equipped with a weapon that can’t kill people. It should be noted that this person is fighting for a lifetime, and he is still on the road to expedition until his death. Such people, the vision is not comparable to future generations.

The reason why the Ming army is talking about the change of gun color now is the issue of civil, noble, military and cheap. The former suppresses the political rights of military generals, so that the army has no say in the court. Will not pay attention to the production and update of weapons. The latter directly broke the roots of military production. Like the Weisuo system, the generational craftsman model also makes the craftsmen who are good at making weapons inferior to the next generation, and the things they make are naturally inferior to the next generation. No matter how good things are, you can’t make them without enough money. History has proven that the Ming military guns at the end of the Ming Dynasty were completely the product of cutting corners and shoddy manufacturing.

One good and one bad, one heavy and one light. The final result is the most direct manifestation of the war in the past few decades. In Guangdong province, it is directly reflected in the strength of the Han army flag. Li Dingguo’s two attacks on Guangdong suffered a lot from the Han army’s flag. In Xinhui City that day, Zhou Shixiang could hear the roar of fire guns on the top of the city day and night.

Fire guns can’t be useless, on the contrary, it’s a weapon. Even without Qin Zhisheng’s demonstration, the more than 100 soldiers in the Taiping Camp who had been killed or wounded with guns also told Zhou Shixiang that fire guns were useful.

………

The gun and the experience of serving as a soldier in his previous life made Zhou Shi like the captured firearm very much. He repeatedly looked at the firearm holding the Han flag and looked at the back before putting it down. He ordered Qin Zhisheng to collect all the captured guns for safekeeping, and all the gunpowder bags on all the flag soldiers were to be picked up and must not be leaked.

The structure of the fire gun is too complicated, and the firing of the gun is also a knowledge. Although Qin Zhisheng, Jiang He and others have repeatedly emphasized that fire guns are useless. Zhou Shixiang still decided to set up the firearms of the Taiping Battalion, and in the future, he must improve these firearms that still rely on arquebuses for ignition.

The best way to improve firearms is to learn from the Europeans who were slightly ahead of Daming firearms manufacturing in this era, and the closest white stronghold to Daming is not far from Xiangshan County—Macao, the gambling city of later generations, but now there are many people gathered here. Missionaries and scientific and technological talents from Europe are also a city of arms. Daming can buy a lot of artillery and cannons from Macau, so can Zhou Shixiang, as long as he has enough money. in front of real money. There is no reason for those white-skinned pigs who came to the East to make a fortune and adventure not to sell.

After the matter of the fire gun was arranged, Zhou Shixiang ordered the entire battalion to enter the city to rest. Since the purpose of the Han army with the blue flag coming to Gaoyao was not to target the Taiping Camp, and there were no other banner troops near Gaoyao, then he didn’t need to be nervous. The days of running around have pushed the entire battalion to the limit of their bodies. People are not made of iron.

According to the prior assignment, Tie Yi and Song Erniu each led their staff to take over the count of the county government office and warehouse. With the help of the county officials who were frightened, the money and grain were quickly counted. More than 4,000 pieces of copper, 100 pieces of cloth and satin, and Qin Ming, the magistrate of the county who had committed suicide, personally ‘sponsored” 700 taels of silver and 30 taels of gold for the Taiping Camp. His wife and two concubines also ‘sponsored” one after another. Gold and silver jewelry worth nearly a thousand taels.

The harvest of grain is not small. Last year, Gaoyao was not hit by disasters. It was a good weather, so the autumn grain was harvested more. Excluding those transported to the prefecture and handed over to the provincial capital, and the county government reselling privately, there are still more than 300 in the warehouse. stone. Guangdong is located in the south, and the people have a variety of rice, so rice is the main food. When the white rice was taken out of the warehouse, most of the soldiers in Taiping Camp were relieved while their eyes were shining. With this rice, they don’t have to worry about starving their wives, children and children in the rear camp.

Without the support of belief, the safety of relatives is the biggest driving force to support everyone. The Han people value family relationships the most, especially married men. Their biggest worry is not their own safety, but their wives, children and children. As long as wives, children, parents can have a bite to eat, they will go all out to fight.

So far, the Taiping Camp is composed of a group of men who are concerned about whether their relatives are hungry, whether they have enough to eat, whether they have clothes to wear, and whether they have land to sleep. , but pure affection. It is true that such an army is not a good team in the strict sense, because he cares too much, but at the moment, this army can allow Zhou Shixiang to move towards his goal step by step. He needs these men to work hard, or in other words, he is using these men to work hard. In Zhou Shixiang’s view, the righteousness of the nation and whether the wife and children can have enough to eat are equal. There is no conflict between the two. Whether the former or the latter is achieved, the purpose of anti-Qing will be achieved~www.readwn.com ~ Shao Jiugong’s team has basically undertaken the maintenance of military discipline after entering the city since Xinxing. No matter how reluctant the officers from Jiangxi Green Camp were, they also consciously assumed the task of maintaining military discipline and realized the importance of military discipline. The rogue-style expansion of the Taiping Camp did not affect Zhou Shixiang’s emphasis on the importance of military discipline wherever he went.

The rogue-style combat method, the rogue-style coercion and expansion, and the maintenance of military discipline may sound like conflicts, but in practice they are not. The way to make the two exist at the same time is very simple, that is, whether to coerce.

The residents of Gaoyao City were not included in Zhou Shixiang’s coercion list, because it was too close to Zhaoqing’s prefecture, and the purpose of the former camp’s entry into Zhaoqing was to confuse, disturb, and restrain the Zhaoqing Green Camp, so that the Zhaoqing Green Camp could not respond to the fact that it was moving in the direction of Xinhui. The rear battalion poses a threat, so Zhou Shixiang must maintain the combat effectiveness and mobility of the front battalion. In this way, coercing the people along the way is not the purpose of the front battalion, and he will not be stupid to do so.

After sending someone to order Ge Zheng brothers to withdraw their troops, Zhou Shixiang sent someone to call Chen Mo outside the city to enter the city. When it was dark, the Taiping Camp closed the gate of Gaoyao. (A good event to drop pie in the sky, the cool mobile phone is waiting for you!
