Di surnamed a merchant over forty years old, called Di Yun, doing medicinal materials business, once he escorted a batch of urgently needed medicinal materials to Zhangbei County, they were a group of ten people, drove three carts, together with several caravans.

All of them had muskets on their backs, and everyone talked and laughed instead of trembling along the way.

There is an old man with Di Yun, surnamed Chen, who travels south and north, is well-informed and proficient in business, and is an important assistant to Di Yun.

He said that in the past, not to mention the plug, the commercial operation between some cities within the Great Wall, is to work with his head, the pay is okay, but the danger is extremely great, Chen Gang is lucky, and the guys who debuted with him are almost all dead, even if he is hit by an arrow in the knee, and now he is walking with a limp, and now he has the money to buy a donkey to travel, otherwise it will be difficult to make a living.

“…… That year was the tenth year of Chongzhen Ye, in Tongzhou, we closed the city gate during the day, and there was only one hour in and out every day, and at other times, no one came to open the door! "Once, when the door was opened, the city gate checked the suitcases and found a set of Tatar attire, and the sentinels warned them, and immediately the whole city was in chaos, and they all said that the Tatars were coming, and countless people in the streets fled in all directions in terror, and the people were in a panic, trampled on each other, trampled on each other, trampled on several people, and injured hundreds. I heard that there is an official who knows the same thing, and he actually wanted to commit suicide by throwing himself into a well, but fortunately he was stopped, otherwise he would have died in vain! ”

Guy Chen took a beautiful puff of his cigarette, spit out the smoke ring and said, "The Tatar costume in that bag is used for acting!" ”

The audience laughed!

It's scary, scary!

Seeing their relaxed appearance, Di Yun thought to himself that you have caught up with the good season, put it aside, don't say anything about the stopper, even the towns in the Great Wall are three times a day, if the Tatars really call, there are almost no towns that can be defended, the Tatars will overcome the city, the people will die, flee, and those who can't escape will become slaves, miserable!

Now the king of the southeast is in power, and some scholars say that he has no king, and he is there to create rumors about him, but the people are very clear that the king of the southeast is really good to the people!

Like a group of Ming cavalry who came over just now, they were strong and well-trained, and after meticulously inspecting their roads, they heard that they did not have fireworks with warnings, and gave them three away.

Amiable and pleasant, without taking a penny, in exchange for the former Ming, the officers and soldiers teach the common people to be people every minute, so that they can understand what it means to be a bandit like a comb, a soldier is like a grate, and even worse than the Tatars!

The common people have a pole in their hearts and say that when the king of the southeast comes to power, everyone's life is much better, the money is easy to earn, the officials of the government are polite, the officials and soldiers are even more honest, much better than the former Ming, and even the streets are much cleaner, and the benefits are so many that they can't be clicked on their fingers.

Di Yun moved the musket on his right shoulder to his left shoulder, so that his right shoulder could relax, and the musket was indeed heavy enough.

But with it, everyone has a bottom in their hearts, and they are not afraid of those northern captives.

If you encounter the enemy, you will fight, don't say that the army does this, even the common people dare to do it!

Encountering a few Northern Rangers, the caravan dares to let them have no return!

If it's before...... Two cavalry cavalry were able to allow a caravan of 100 men to blow up the camp and escape.

If the brigade of cavalry captured in the north, the caravan guys would abandon their goods and retreat to the mountains beside the road, fighting while retreating, much better than before!

In the past, he lost his property in front of his eyes, and now he has lost his goods, but he can be angry, let the northern cavalry lose people, and kill them with muskets!

The musket is easy to use, what did you need to practice martial arts in the past, practice Sanjiu in winter, practice Sanfu in summer, how hard it is, even if you practice like this, you can't beat the bow and arrow of the northern captives, but with the musket, hey, this guy is solid and easy to use, top use.

If the northern captives came, Di Yun sneered and couldn't help patting his musket!

This musket was bought by him personally, rifled guns!

A group of people came from the front, interrupting his thoughts, and everyone raised their vigilance, and their muskets were loaded.

The team of people was clothed, all carrying muskets, waving flags, and looking at the flags, oh, it was the Zhangbei County Brigade.

This is a militia organization, and now in order to deal with the northern captives, the militia in various places has county brigades, township squadrons and village squadrons. It shows his deep expectations for the militia.

Although it is a militia, but under the command of the county lieutenant, with the support of the county's guns and ammunition, the captains and the backbone of the team have to go to the county every year to train and study, and when they come back, they are full of official words, and fanatically say that they want to fight for the king of the southeast!

They sent someone to check it out, and then waved it away.

They marched along the road with high spirits, and some of the young people had smiling faces, Di Yun was a little dazed, remembering that in the pre-Ming Dynasty, everyone was tense and had no smile or joy.

……

As I walked, I suddenly saw wolf smoke burning in the direction on the right side of the road, indicating that there was an enemy!

"A shot of wolf smoke!" Guy Chen is old.

"Keep going!" After discussing with the other caravan owners, Di Yun let the caravan continue walking.

Footsteps sounded behind them, and it was the county brigade that saw the wolf smoke and turned back, and they moved in the direction of the right!

The caravan advanced further and found a small group of Ming cavalry, and they also rushed to the wolf smoke!

Walking more than five miles, the dust was billowing in front, and the Ming infantry of the brigade were running forward in a dense formation, looking at their calm appearance, the people of the caravan were steady!

They drove the livestock to the side of the road, got out of the way, and talked excitedly.

No matter what kind of northern captives, when they encounter such a heavily armed army and militia, they will be killed and wounded!

The caravan arrived safely in Zhangbei County, they entered the city from the south gate, and found that some people were waiting at the city gate, but fortunately, they did not wait long, they entered the city gate, only to find that this was an urn city, when entering a group of people, first closed the innermost city gate, after checking this group of people, and then closed the outermost city gate, opened the innermost city gate.

Security!

The new term issued by the government quickly understood it among the people and officials of the Ming Kingdom.

Everyone obeyed, and no one broke through, otherwise the musketeers who were eyeing each other would shoot.

The caravan was in order, there was no suspicion, and it passed through the security check without any problems.

Although Zhangbei County is a small city, it is unusually prosperous, the flow of people is like a carp, nine times out of ten are carrying muskets, many of them are women carrying guns, and even Di Yun found a tall and fit girl, she carried a long musket on her right shoulder, and a double-barreled troll on her left shoulder, heroic posture, so that he couldn't help but look at it twice!

It is conceivable that if there is a northern captive attacking the city, it will encounter a volley of 10,000 guns!

them go!

The firepower in the city is abundant, and the climax of all this is that Di Yun led the team to the county treasury next to the county government to hand over the medicinal materials, just when he saw the county order come out, everyone avoided both sides of the road, and stood to the county order to hug their fists and ask for peace.

But seeing that the county commander Hei Hei was thin and thin to lead the team in front, he did not wear an official robe but a simple casual dress in the style of the Southeast Kingdom, the armored vest of the Southeast Country was on the outside of the clothes, he was carrying a musket, a short gun pinned to his waist, and a dagger, carrying a steel helmet at the back of his heart, and a small grenade hanging on his chest, this is a seven-grade civil official of the imperial court!
