Chapter 118: Training
"Why do you want to go so far?" Zhang Han said politely: "This is too much to delay things." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”
Li Shenming shook his head and smiled: "You are really confused, aren't you, it's already a sacrificial stove, except for the staff on duty in the future, they are all on vacation, what else can be done!" ”
This time, even Sun Jingting also supported Li Shenming, saying: "I've been busy for several days, and we've finished deploying manpower, so it's really time to take a break." ”
At this time, Zhang Han rode to Sun Yuanhua's side, jumped off the horse and arched his hand: "Mr. Huodong has always been fine, is this time to come here for the New Year and rest for a while?" ”
Sun Yuanhua stayed in the military department for a short time last year, after the Ming army learned to build the Hongyi cannon, Sun Yuanhua and the considerable military personnel went directly to Liaoxi, under the supervision of Sun Chengzong began to cast cannons, Sun Yuanhua was a skill, until the four years or so of the Apocalypse before and after the real implementation, all parts of western Liaoning began to assemble the newly cast Hongyi cannons, generally weighing more than 5,000 catties, playing about 20 catties of heavy shells, this is actually the heavy naval artillery of the Portuguese, it should be a twenty-four pounder or thirty-six pounder guns, As a result, after the Portuguese shipwreck was fished up from the sea by the Ming Dynasty, the cannons were transported to Beijing, and the Ming court was suffering from the lack of heavy firearms in the battle with the Eastern Captives.
So history is really a spiral development...... If there was this kind of artillery in Shenyang and Liaoyang at the beginning, Yuan Yingtai might not allow He Shixian and others to fight, the Ming army used artillery as long-range support, and the elite guarded the city gate outside. However, it is a pity that it was only a few years later that the Ming army began to deploy artillery in western Liaoxi, and it was indeed effective, and it was almost impossible for the city with heavy artillery to be conquered head-on.
After Sun Yuanhua's meritorious service, he was transferred from the secretary of the military department to the head of the department, and he was a civilian official of the sixth grade.
Of course, Zhang Han, an expert-level figure, wanted to use it, in fact, Sun Yuanhua also gave a lot of help to Wang Debang and others and the work of the Yusheng Firearms Bureau, but unfortunately this person couldn't pull it in.
Sun Yuanhua really said with empty eyes: "Wenlan has a mountain of gold and silver here, and I am here again......
This person is really straightforward that can't be changed, and he still speaks in the same style of begging.
Zhang Han ignored him and turned his gaze to Kong Minxing.
Kong Minxing said with a smile: "Sun Chuyang was specially hired by the Military and Political Department to give a lecture in the Artillery Department of the Military Academy, and Peter and they also want to exchange some experiences with Sun Preliminary about the Ming Dynasty's heavy artillery casting in Liaoxi...... You know, we're going to cast heavy artillery too. ”
"I still have a lot of experience in casting heavy artillery." Sun Yuanhua said triumphantly, with a very understated expression.
When Zhang Han heard this, he laughed.
Indeed, the Ming army due to the needs of the war, the technology of casting artillery can be described as a thousand miles a day, in the salvage of the Portuguese shipwreck, the Ming Dynasty will only cast small artillery and Franc machine, to the apocalypse and Chongzhen years, the heavy artillery in the hands of the Ming army has been technically left behind the Europeans far behind, whether it is the mud mold method or the loss of wax method, the Ming army casting a complete set of technology is quite advanced, in fact, even the emperor Taiji and their group of savages have learned to cast heavy artillery, of course, in technology is still a lot behind the Ming Dynasty, Later, after the Qing army entered the customs, it unloaded the heavy artillery on the head of the city in western Liaoning, dragged it all the way to Shaanxi to open Tongguan, and then dragged it all the way to Jingzhou to pacify Jingxiang.
The sky is good, the city wrapped in silver light is like a gorgeous dress, shining, everyone greetings from the city gate into the city, Sun Yuanhua plans to live in Kong Minxing's house, they are brothers and sisters and a good family, Kong Minxing's mansion is also the level of a political official, the house is enough to live, Zhang Han asked, and did not force Sun Yuanhua to live in his own side or the official building.
In any case, Sun Yuanhua's visit to Qingcheng is half private and half public, and it can be said that he came to inspect the military, and he visited Kong Minxing, a fellow friend, if he lives in Zhang Han's house or the building, the official color will be too heavy.
Everyone talked and talked, the atmosphere was excellent, Zhang Han's banquet before and after the year was almost set in a quarter of an hour, the three or four days before the year had some sweeping business, Chinese New Year's Eve and the first day of the new year were all in their own homes, Zhang Han's identity has long been unnecessary and can not go to anyone's house to pay New Year's greetings, after the second day of the first year, each family is invited, from the second row of the first year to the eighth day of the first year can not be idle, after the eighth day of the first year Zhang Han will go to the Yunnei Prefecture area to inspect, basically resume the normal rhythm of work, around the fifteenth arrived at the copper mine, It's a Lantern Festival with the workers......
"It's so busy." Li Shenming sighed, and then he stepped forward and began to talk with Zhang Han.
"When?" Zhang Han had already met the Mongols, and of course he knew the outcome of the matter, but he still didn't know much about the specific situation.
"It was the day before yesterday." Li Shenming explained the matter in detail, pouted and said: "That little fat man is worthy of being trained by you, and this matter is handled in a timely and exquisite manner." ”
Zhang Han smiled slightly, and there was a sense of pride in his heart.
It's really handled wonderfully!
Ah Yushi's waste Taiji does not need to be killed, and if he makes a mistake, he will be punished as he wants, whip it, and order Kaichun to return to his ranch immediately. In addition, taking advantage of this incident to establish a little prestige, Omu Buhong also understands that Zhang Han does not want a pure mascot, and Hutchison's approach is not the same as that of the Central Plains Dynasty, not the feeling of pure domestic and foreign subjects, but a very pragmatic attitude based on cooperation after submission...... There is a feeling, or a cognition, that Zhang Han will not change the existing situation in the future, and control it with trade and cooperation, plus the general righteousness, that is, the ministries can swear to submit, instead of trying to convert the Mongols into counties...... It is impossible to do it in the short term, that is, in fifty years, even if the merchant army has an absolute superiority in strength.
Since the future will be based on cooperation, as the Great Khan of the Tumut Department, of course, he also needs to be able to really help, otherwise in the future, Hutchison will be more powerful on the grassland, Zhang Han can directly command those Taiji, what is the use of keeping this Tumut Khan and the King of Shunyi?
As for Tobok, a rather threatening Taiji, it is absolutely impossible to stay.
Zhang Han needed a Mongol Khan who was capable and binding on the Mongol Taiji and had considerable influence on the herdsmen, but he didn't need a Taiji who was still secretly supporting the Great Khan who was trying to restore it...... The proportions of this are really quite accurate, hit one, kill one, have a clear attitude, move quickly and quickly, never drag mud and water, do what should be done, quite simple and strong......
"Will this little fat man be difficult to control in the future?" After Li Shenming boasted, he became a little worried.
"No, it won't." Zhang Han shook his head and said: "King Shunyi knows how to behave himself, and his cleverness is that he has been showing that he has understood what kind of position he should be in, and he can cooperate with us very clearly, which shows that he will be a fairly reliable partner, how can such a smart person do stupid things?" To put it another way, as long as we remain strong, the king of Shunyi will always be reliable, unless one day we lose, and we lose badly. ”
"Are we going to lose badly?" Li Shenming subconsciously followed. Then he himself laughed: "No, He Yusheng has grown into a towering tree, and it is impossible for us to fail." ”
"Be prepared for danger in times of peace." Zhang Han said thoughtfully: "We must always be vigilant." ”
……
"What a big mansion!" Sun Yuanhua looked up at Kong Minxing's mansion on the edge of the dismount stone, and praised loudly.
This is indeed a fairly large mansion, the door is very high, and it should be worthy of the four words of Zhumen and high households.
Originally, this was a rather large Buddhist temple, and the military department took it to transform without any politeness, and the original lamas either left and went to the great lamas in the Taobu area, or went to Karaqin or the tribes further east, or simply went to Mobei.
The influence of the lamas in the grassland has been very deep and wide, fortunately, the houses in Qingcheng have almost all been replaced, and now the Mongols only have about one percent of the residents in the city, and the military department only retains a big Buddha temple, which has been regarded as giving face to the Huangjiao and the Mongols, and does not give them to think about those who have and do not, and the requisition is unceremonious, because with the irresistible force of the lamas as the backing, of course, doing these things is also full of confidence.
The gate of the house in front of me was originally the gate of the Buddhist temple, but the religious color was removed, and it was rebuilt according to the gatehouse of the Han gentry family.
There are very few people in the Confucian Mansion, and the door is an old man in his sixties, even the door is open, and he doesn't engage in those false texts, after Sun Yuanhua saw it clearly, he smiled and said to Kong Minxing: "You are really still Kong Zhizhi, and you haven't changed anything." ”
"What are you going to change?" Kong Minxing handed over the reins of the horse to the little guy who was in charge of raising horses, and said with a smile: "I'm still me, even if I become an official, I can't change my pure heart, and now I am not an official, and I can barely keep my identity as a lifter." ”
"It's really weird." Sun Yuanhua said: "If it weren't for that incident, you should be an official in the same court as me now, and everyone would serve the court together." ”
"Aren't you working for the imperial court now? Kong Minxing said with a smile: "We are still the courtiers of the Ming Dynasty, expanding the territory in the grassland and conquering the northern captives, isn't it the Ming Dynasty that benefits?" ”
"I can't tell you." Sun Yuanhua said: "In short, you are now an official, or a high-ranking official." It's useless for you to argue about this, so let's admit it. ”
Kong Minxing smiled and said nothing, he knew that Sun Yuanhua's temper was like this, and it was not wise to entangle with him.
