After Kong and Geng surrendered, the Jin not only greatly enhanced the strength of the Houjin artillery, but also passed on the corresponding artillery methods, and the Ming army's advantage in firearms was no longer there, and the Later Jin used Western artillery to complete the military transformation.

After that, it has developed even more rapidly.

In the seventh year of Chongde, the leaders of the Eight Banners of Huangtai Ji Ming Han led the gunsmiths to Jinzhou, and used the original artillery factory of the Ming Dynasty to cast the "Shenwei General" Hongyi cannon. In the eighth year of Chongde, he sent people to Jinzhou to supervise the manufacture of Hongyi cannons, and such batches of officials were sent to make cannons, which shows that Jinzhou at that time had become the manufacturing base of the Qing army's firearms.

In the first year of Chongde, Huang Taiji would ascend the throne as emperor and change the name of the country to Qing. Subsequently, Huang Taiji reorganized the Eight Banners Army. As early as July of the seventh year of Tiancong, the surrendered and captured Han soldiers and Han generals were organized into the Han army artillery team, and in July of the second year of Chongde, the Han army was divided into two banners; In June of the fourth year of Chongde, the Han army was added as four banners; In June of the seventh year of Chongde, that is, after the Battle of Songjin, the Han army was divided into eight banners, with a total strength of more than 24,500 people.

At this point, the Eight Banners of the Han Army were formed. The three divisions of Kong, Geng, and Shang, who were proficient in artillery technology and mainly equipped with Hongyi cannons, became a new branch of the Qing army - an independent artillery unit, which belonged to the Eight Banners of the Han Army. The Eight Banners of Manchuria, plus the Eight Banners of the Han Army formed by equipping the artillery units of Kong Youde and other departments.

At this time, East Asia formed an almost invincible force.

During the Chongde period of the Qing Dynasty, the Qing army was able to mobilize more Hongyi artillery in each battle outside the Guanwai than the Ming army, and already had the superior firepower needed to attack cities and seize land. I have to say that when Huang Taiji talks about military talent, political ability, and scheming, he really wants to get rid of Chongzhen's eighteen streets. Intentionally or unintentionally, he turned the battles outside the Guanguan into exercises in which the Manchurian, Mongolian, and Han armies, as well as the infantry, cavalry, and artillery arms skillfully coordinated with each other.

At that time, the total strength of the Qing army reached 200,000 people, with elite cavalry, elite artillery, and elite infantry armor. Among them, the Han army of about 40,000 people, with high-quality Hongyi cannons, on the eve of entering the customs, the Qing Dynasty, which had occupied most of the land outside the customs, was able to integrate the smelting and casting technology created by the Ming people and the advanced artillery design of the Europeans, and cast 35 Shenwei generals with the world's highest quality iron core bronze bodies.

Although this military regime was fierce and brutal, greedy and vicious, and abused the world, slaughtering tens of millions of Han people after entering the customs, killing an unknown number of people in the realm, it is undeniable that as a new and expanding regime, they are full of vigor, extremely strong in combat, and also have a desire for expansion and aggression.

After the Qing army entered the customs, the artillery unit composed of the surrendered Han Chinese, coordinated with the Manchurian and Mongolian Eight Banner Infantry Cavalry, and almost seized the Central Plains with a devastating force.

At that time, in fact, the real general trend has gone, and without him, the military strength is really too inferior.

But that's all for later.

Originally, there were some people in Lingyidu, but if they didn't train, they didn't have any benefit, they were very casual, and their combat effectiveness was naturally not worth mentioning. However, after this time, they were also deeply worried, so they were led by the Su family, and these big families each sent out some family guards, and then recruited some strong and brave people to form a team to protect the village. The team of the Zhuang team is played by Su Erhu.

Building the city wall and recruiting the people to fight, these things were all done by the Su family to come forward and call everyone to do it. After all, as the grain chief of this place, although the Su family has a bad reputation, its prestige and power are first-class around Lingyidu, and when they call out, everyone naturally responds. But whether it is buying bricks and stones to build city walls, or building weapons to dredge joints to get forbidden materials, or recruiting people to fight, it is impossible to do without money. With the temperament of the Su family, they naturally would not pay for these things themselves.

Su Yimo sent people to inform them door-to-door, this is a major matter in the entire Lingyidu, and no one can shirk the blame, regardless of the upper and lower levels, regardless of the size of the family, regardless of the wealth of the family, they must pay money. The amount of money to pay is divided up and down according to the time of tax collection. The lower households are 500 wen per household, the middle households are 1 tael of silver per household, and the upper class households are 1 tael of silver per household.

As for the Su family and several other large households, each household paid ten taels.

The Su family's abacus is very shrewd, it seems that the Su family and several other big families have made a lot, and one family's capital contribution is enough to be worth ten medium-sized households, but the account is not calculated like this. Because the gap between the total assets of the two sides is too large.

That's right, the middle family only paid one tael of silver per household, but his family's entire property may only be ten taels, and all of a sudden, the family's property is gone. And the Su family paid ten taels, but his family's total property is five thousand taels of silver, so that the ten taels of silver paid are only equivalent to one of five hundredth of their assets.

The proportion is not at all to be counted.

What's more, after the ferocious looting of Lingyidu, the people below have suffered heavy losses at all, some of them are already surrounded by four walls, destitute, and some even have heavy casualties in their families. Lingyidu relies on the Huanshui River, there is a lot of water, and the people generally have a little money, maybe they can be considered relatively wealthy in the surrounding dozens of miles, they can come up with this money before, but now it is not necessarily.

Perhaps the only exception is Dong Xu's family, he got Dong Ce's instructions early, and took his wife Qian to visit his mother in Shilipu early that morning, so he escaped a catastrophe. When they went out, they carried money with them and hid them in their homes. And they were in the pawnshop business, and the things were hidden so deep that the bandits didn't catch anyone and torture them, and they were impatient to search a little bit, so they didn't loot all the things, and there were a lot left.

Although Dong Xu had some losses, it was not serious, and when they left Shilipu, Red Sleeves also gave them a lot of silver clothing, which was a lot of money.

Pity these people in Lingyidu, who were first robbed by bandits, and then robbed by the Su family again.

This is also a helpless thing, as long as you don't want to be robbed again, you have to pay the money honestly.

At this time, people's local concept is extremely heavy, and they are reluctant to move when they are idle, relatives and friends, family business, homesteads, and ancestral tombs are all here, where can they move? Could it be that you don't want any of this? Besides, there will be no bandits if you move somewhere else? In these days, there is no peace anywhere.

If you can't go, then you have to guard against it, and you have to pay money.

However, they should also rush to rejoice, the thousands of stone of grain that were paid at the beginning were piled up on the wheat field, and as soon as the bandits arrived, everyone fled in a hurry, and no one took care of the grain. However, the food is heavy and occupies space, so it is easy to slow down the speed of the team, and the bandits are reluctant to grab a lot of food, they prefer to ask for light gold and silver. It was Tie Taibao who only let people grab enough food to chew up and down the cottage for a period of time and load it into the car, and left the rest alone. And the Tie Taipo did not order the fire - he had many women before and after, but no one could give him a son. Tie Taibao thought that this was because he had killed too many people before, so he had the intention of accumulating Yin De to give birth to a son, so he did not order the fire.

His kindness really saved the lives of many people.

If not, I am afraid that the people of Lingyidu will be forced to die by the Su family in the next step - it is precisely because almost eighty percent of the grain paid up has not been snatched away that the Su family did not force the people of Lingyidu to pay taxes again. In other words, pay the taxes you paid before.

After all, they are all villagers, and the Su family is not good at making things too ugly.

The people in other places don't have such good luck, except for Lingyidu, the other villages are all forced by the Su family's family to go door to door, asking them to pay taxes again.

In this matter, the Su family is completely a scoundrel, and it is said that your grain has not been registered yet, so it is not considered tax, and what does it have to do with me being robbed by bandits? You still have to pay what you deserve!

You have no food, no money? Cheng, all the livestock in the family have been pulled away! Nor are there livestock? Take your daughter to pay off your debts! What the? No daughters? Then snatch your mother-in-law away! Singles? The poor don't even have a mother-in-law! I'm sorry, you always have relatives and friends, right? I had to take you into the house for a good beating, and then put you back and let you borrow money from relatives and friends to pay taxes!

After all, you have to scavenge the last bit of oil and water to clean up.

In fact, it is just to reduce the Su family's own losses.

But some practical things have been done, and now the fortress is strong, there are people patrolling back and forth on the wall, and there are people on the mounds outside the town who are far away, and they are not afraid to wait for the bandits to come.

Sioux House.

The high gate is large, and the courtyard is forested.

The gate was closed, and there were guards at the door, but the weapon was no longer the whistle stick that Dong Ce had held when he came before, but a cross-knife at his waist and a gun in his hand.

On the tall courtyard wall, there are also family members who walk back and forth from time to time to patrol.

Now the defense level of Su Mansion is obviously a level higher than it was at the beginning.

The last time the bandits from Liuling Mountain came to rob, the Su family could be said to be the one with the most serious losses in the entire Lingyidu. No way, who made his family the richest? At that time, Su Yimo ran away with his old mother, daughter-in-law and son, but it was just two carriages, and he didn't even bring all the people, and several concubines were thrown in the house, not to mention the money. He brought with him all the soft gold, not even much silver. The bandits of Liuling Mountain found a bowl of more than 1,000 taels of silver from Lingyidu, of which 5,000 taels were scavenged, which were looted from the homes of Su Fuhe and several other large families.
