Crossing the Yellow River is Luoyang City, after hearing that King Lu gave the Tang King funding, King Fu was not willing to be left behind.

The arranger recruited 800 young and middle-aged people, transported 1,000 stone of grain, and gave 15,000 taels of silver to support the Tang King to fight the Liukou.

King Zhou of Kaifeng Mansion made a big move, and he gave no less than the money, grain and manpower given by King Fu, and many county kings also gave people money and food more or less.

Henan is in chaos, hungry people are everywhere, and the prince pays money and grain to recruit thousands of young and strong responders, but the vassal kings know how to take it easy, and 800 people have become the upper limit.

Everyone longs for freedom, and the Ming prince is no exception, they are all fed up with the life of caged birds, hoping to one day be able to swim all over the world.

The king of Tang was undoubtedly breaking the ancestral system, and the rest of the vassal kings and county kings were full of expectations for him.

On the twenty-fifth day of the first month, when the army came to Xingyang, the Tang king's men and horses reached more than 5,000, and more than 1,000 wheelbarrows were loaded with military supplies and 5,000 stone grain.

Relatives help neighbors and neighbors, the king of the Zhu family and the king of the county sympathize with the plight of the king of Tang and the king of Xiang, and support the king of Tang to rescue the king of Xiang to avenge the family who died.

After Jinyiwei and Dongchang grasped the fact that Emperor Cheng played the truth, Chongzhen chose not to support or deny it and wait and see.

The young emperor loves face, and he is not a taste in his heart when the vassal king and the county king are killed and arrested, and he also feels that he is at a loss, so the fate of the Tang king is better than history, and he was not sent to Fengyang for imprisonment because he left the fiefdom.

The consistent style of the "Red Flag Army" is to develop wherever it goes, where the propaganda slogans are written, and more people know that there is a "Red Flag Army" in Daming that does not rob the people if they starve to death.

Zhao Kun, Gu Zhun, Gu Rushan, and Pei Yuanwu were all demanding of cavalry, and after attacking Jiannu, they seized eight or nine hundred war horses, more than 1,000 mules and donkeys, and rescued more than 100,000 ordinary people who were coerced by the Qing army.

Today's "Red Banner Army" is already the savior in the eyes of the common people, and there is no need for propaganda to ask tens of thousands of young and middle-aged people to follow the "Red Flag Army" to kill the Tartars and exterminate the Liukou.

In the end, Zhao Kun selected 2,000 young adults with a skill or good physical fitness to do miscellaneous service with the army.

Along the way, Gu Rushan led less than 2,000 cavalry to follow and attack the Qing army, and captured more than 300 war horses.

Yansui Town is one of the nine sides, the people here are fierce, there are many young adults who can ride horses and have the ability to ride and fight, Zhao Kun and Gu Zhun personally participated in the screening and selected a thousand men who have passed the cavalry as alternate cavalry to participate in the training.

The selected Yansui men can take their families and soldiers with them as long as they want, and will finally send them to the Liaoxi Corridor to reclaim.

The task of the main force of the "Red Banner Army" in the next stage is to seize the south of the Han River in Korea and then advance north to take the Korean Peninsula in its entirety.

Lu Xiangsheng actually envied the "Red Flag Army" for their recklessness, and also envied them for always having plenty of food and salary, and he was full of emotion when he saw that the ranks of the "Red Flag Army" were getting bigger and bigger.

This feudal official with a sense of justice felt that his head was as big as a fight, and even a fool could see that the general of the expedition had a heart of disobedience, but the "Red Banner Army" not only starved to death and did not rob the people, but also repeatedly saved the people and water and fire.

The general who did not respect the emperor's orders and was not controlled by the imperial power was not a traitor, he fought against corrupt officials, punished profiteers, returned millions of people, and also beat the invading Jiannu and Tartars to escape.

In case the emperor later ordered the dispatch of the Tianxiong Army to crusade against the "Red Banner Army", where would he go?

The grassroots soldiers under his command are so close to the "Red Banner Army", and everyone has the intention of following the captured generals.

At that time, he will be ordered to fight with the "Red Banner Army", will the Tianxiong Army slack off? Will the "Red Flag Army" wave their hands and most of the people under their command will follow others?

It has been nine years since Huang Han came to Daming, and the value of gold and silver treasures in his hands after engaging in Jin merchants and corrupt officials last year has exceeded 30 million taels of silver, which does not count the value of confiscated furniture, real estate, shops and millions of acres of fertile land.

It has been a year and a month since he left the capital as a general of the conquest, and the five-year period of Pingliao has been less than four years.

Moreover, the "Red Banner Army" system of commercial activities flourished, factories, workshops, and shops were everywhere, and the demand for capital was endless.

20 million taels of cash are deposited in the "Sifang Bank," and the interest on a large one-year fixed deposit is 5/1,000 per month, and an annual income of more than 1.2 million taels will be obtained.

With more development funds in the system, the benefits generated by investment and the job opportunities brought by investment will increase tax revenues and increase the number of strong ships and artillery, so how can the increasingly strong "Red Flag Army" still have grandchildren?

Zhao Kun, Gu Zhun and other generals were about to participate in the suppression of the Liukou, and Huang Han did not give them too many reinforcements because he was preparing to launch a spring offensive to take Korea in one fell swoop.

They were replenished with 5,000 autogenous guns, 500 mini guns, 500 autogenous short guns, plus a general artillery piece.

The artillery put Cheng Yiyong, the former artillery chief flag officer, who had always been trained by Sun Yuanhua, Ehongluo, and Gong Satong for four or five years.

There were 400 gunners in this one, and they carried a total of thirty one-pound furlong cannons, and three twelve-pounder, six-pounder, and three-pounder field guns.

The proportion of veterans in the artillery is only 10%, and 90% are academic teenagers, all of whom have systematically studied the principles of artillery firing and have a rough understanding of ballistics.

In the face of the competition of thousands of young artillerymen with academic knowledge, Cheng Liyong was still able to be promoted one level at a time and always be the commander of artillery, which was directly proportional to his talent and dedication.

Because his theoretical knowledge may be poor, but the accumulated operational experience and practical combat knowledge are incomparable, with him personally controlling the twelve-pounder gun, he can hit the highest hit rate without calculating the elevation angle and only using visual inspection.

He was also able to quickly estimate the coordinates of the artillery being fired by listening to the sound of artillery and seeing where the shells landed.

In recent years, Huang Han has led craftsmen and engineering students to compile too many standards, so that the quality of products in the system is no longer the experience of old craftsmen, and there are data references.

The cannons used by the "Red Banner Army" are already standardized products, and the gunners can adapt to the new guns after firing them a few times after taking up their posts.

Standardized production of weapons also has a huge benefit, common parts and components, reduced production costs, reduced maintenance costs, and improved efficiency.

Not only the standardization of military products, but also civilian products, waterproof canvas, valves, flush toilets, nickel white copper pipes, tin-plated, galvanized steel pipes, screws and nuts and so on have unified standards.
