Chapter 499: Great Ming Dragon Vein
"Yes!" Yu Xin immediately saluted in response, and then continued to count the trophies, "There are also twenty-one nine-pound and twelve-pound cannons, eighteen six-pounder cannons, and more than forty three- and four-pounder cannons.
"There are more than 34,000 sets of refined cotton armor and more than 11,000 pieces of half-body scale armor. However, more than half of them are damaged and need to be repaired.
"There are more than 13,000 war horses, all of which are good horses in the north. There were nearly 30,000 stones of grain and grass, and 20,000 taels of silver. One hundred and sixty carts of all kinds, as well as siege equipment......"
I'll go, Jianyu is really rich! Zhu Linmiao secretly said in his heart, so much armament is enough to arm an ordinary army of 100,000 people, of course, these materials were also looted from all over Jiangbei.
"The military horses are left to break the camp first." Zhu Linmiao instructed, "Half of the artillery will be given to the White Pole Army, and the armor will also be allocated to Sichuan." With this batch of sophisticated weapons, the combat power of the Sichuan army can be increased by at least seven or eight percent. ”
He thought about it for a while, and then said to Zhang Jiayu: "Let the military department be loyal to the Marquis, and after the weapons arrive, steadily advance to the north, and put more pressure on Xiankou." On the other hand, Wang Yingxiong secretly contacted Li Dingguo, Ai Nengqi, etc., and tried to recruit them. ”
"Yes!"
"By the way, where is Chen Bangyan's side now?"
"Lord Hui, General Chen's Western Route Army has conquered Qingyang County, an important town in Chizhou Prefecture, and is marching into Tongling."
Tongling is only more than 200 miles away from Wuhu, the west gate of Nanjing, and taking this place is to completely block Hong Chengchou in Nanjing. Zhu Linmiao said: "Allocate twenty cannons to Chen Bangyan's department, and let him recover Wuhu as soon as possible." ”
"Yes." Zhang Jiayu said, "The captives and thieves only have less than 3,000 weak soldiers in Chizhou and Ningguo, and they are all defending the city. With these cannons, Ling Bin's department will definitely be able to break through! ”
As he was talking, Sun Qi rode his horse and saluted Zhu Linmiao, and then said excitedly: "Your Highness, my subordinates have found a good thing!" He pointed to a few large carts in the distance, "When I counted and seized it yesterday, this thing was black, because my subordinates didn't pay attention to it, and today I made people polish it and found that it was actually a few strange heavy artillery!" ”
Zhu Linmiao looked at the things in the car with a telescope, and couldn't help laughing, isn't this the hexagonal rifled gun?
Sun Qi said again: "Your Highness, according to the prisoner's confession, the thief transported a total of four of these cannons to Jiangyin. Yesterday, when I was in battle, a cannon shot four miles away!
"However, after only one round of cannons, one of them blew up when the second shot was fired, and the other three were blown apart."
Zhu Linmiao was still a little surprised when he heard the first half of the sentence, this Tang Ruowang actually cast a hexagonal rifle cannon! But Sun Qi's second half of the sentence relieved him again, it turned out that he just built a "tofu scum project".
Sun Qi looked like he had picked up a treasure, "Your Highness, this is a heavy cannon of nearly six thousand catties!" And the shape is bizarre, if you can really play four miles away......"
"Six thousand catties?!" Zhu Linmiao interrupted him and asked, "Is it copper or iron?" ”
"Back to Your Highness, it's a bronze ......"
"Sure enough, there is money!" Zhu Linmiao said with a smile, "Bring it back to the Fujing Ordnance Bureau and melt the cast cannon." Xu Wei has been short of copper for a long time, and he is 20,000 catties of bronze, which can make him happy. ”
"Melted?" Sun Qi hurriedly said, "Your Highness, why don't you try it first, maybe the power is ......."
"Don't try it out." Zhu Linmiao categorically refused, and comforted him again, "I'll give you some really good guns after a while!" These...... It's just rubbish. ”
Fortunately, John Tang was not here. If he heard that he had invested months of hard work, and that the "black technology" that had been made by thousands of craftsmen and spent more than 200,000 taels of silver was called "rubbish", he would definitely be so angry that he would spew out a few mouthfuls of old blood.
……
A blazing sun is reflected on the lush Purple Mountain. The mountain is winding, but it stands proudly, like a giant dragon lying on the edge of Nanjing.
Zhu Linmiao stood on the side of the Purple Mountain and looked into the distance, and saw that under the Purple Mountain Dulong Fu Play Mount Everest, a large area of neatly regulated golden glazed tiles composed of buildings, covering an area of hundreds of hectares.
This is the mausoleum of Ming Taizu, Hongwu Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang and his wife Empress Ma - Xiaoling.
Xiaoling is adjacent to the Linggu Temple under the Purple Mountain in the east, and the Meihua Mountain in the south, and the overall layout imitates the celestial phenomena surrounded by the Big Dipper and the four elephants. Seven buildings, including Xiamafang, Dajinmen, Wangzhu, Lingxing Gate, Wulong Bridge, Xiangdian and Baocheng, are divided into seven buildings from the head of the Big Dipper spoon to the spoon handle. And Dulongfu, Qinglong Mountain, Dalian Mountain, Shogunate Mountain, Lion Mountain, Qingliang Mountain, Niushou Mountain, Play Everest, and Meihua Mountain form the four gods of Xuanlong, Tiger and Sparrow.
At the same time, the site selection of filial piety is also very particular, the Purple Mountain in the northeast direction is the dragon head, the Taiping Gate is the dragon's neck, the Fugui Mountain is west along the Nanjing city wall to Jiuhua Mountain, Jiming Temple, and then together with Fu Hougang, Drum Tower, until Wutai Mountain together constitute the dragon body, and the Yeshan Taoist Institute is the dragon's tail.
It is where the Daming dragon vein is!
As early as the Three Kingdoms period, Zhuge Liang said: "Zhongshan Longpan, Shicheng Tiger Standing, is really the emperor's house!" "This Zhongshan is the Purple Mountain, which shows the prosperity of feng shui here.
And right now, this dragon vein that controls the luck of the Ming Dynasty is in front of Zhu Linmiao.
As a descendant who has learned natural science knowledge since childhood, Zhu Linmiao has due awe for the "Feng Shui Dragon Vein", but she is not superstitious about it. But he knows very well that the word "dragon vein" has irreplaceable significance for the people of the Ming Dynasty!
I don't know how many people in this world have lost their will to resist because the Daming Dragon Vein was taken away by Jianyu.
Therefore, the great significance of the Ming Dynasty to recover the filial piety tomb is self-evident to the hearts of the people in the world.
"My lord, General Chen is here." Shi Lin saw that the auxiliary king seemed to be pondering, hesitated again and again, and still gave up.
"Okay?" Zhu Linmiao turned his head and beckoned to Chen Yi, who was standing next to the rock.
Chen Yi stepped forward quickly, saluted and said solemnly: "My lord, my subordinates are derelict in their duties, please punish them with military law." ”
"What's wrong with doing it?" Zhu Linmiao said, "If you really use two thousand soldiers to fight Huang Ding to the death, it will be a dereliction of duty!" ”
It turned out that the 30,000 Qing troops under Huang Ding and Yang Chengzu had rushed to the vicinity of Nanjing yesterday night. Shi Qin advocated taking advantage of the darkness to have the engineer battalion of the Longwei Army and his cavalry fortify on the north side of Huangding, and drag the thieves outside the city of Nanjing, waiting for the main force of the auxiliary king to return.
However, Chen Yi did not get the exact time when the main force arrived in Nanjing at this time, and considering that most of the sappers were skilled craftsmen and it was not easy to train, he rejected Shi Qin's proposal. Unexpectedly, at noon today, Zhu Linmiao had already led the army back to Nanjing.
Chen Yi lowered his head and said: "If your subordinates listen to General Qin's words, with the combat strength of our army, there will be no problem in blocking the thieves for half a day." He squinted in the direction of Nanjing, "At this time, there will be no 30,000 thieves in the city......
"The battle must be fought, but it must not be filled with the lives of the soldiers!" Zhu Linmiao patted him on the shoulder, "It's just a weak soldier under Huang Ding, I regard him like a chicken, I don't have to worry about it." ”
