Chapter 603: The Great Army Goes Out of the Fortress (Part II)
After the deliberations on the 21st, the Jingbian Army entered the final preparations for the expedition, and all kinds of material resources were continuously gathered. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Among them, the Xuanwu Army of the Han Dynasty, the three battalions that went out, Sun Sanjie's baggage battalion, the grain transportation on the Western Front, and Zhong Xiancai's White Tiger Army, and the two battalions that went out of the fortress, all the firecrackers in the army were replaced with self-made firearms.
Although the Jingbian Army's military production capacity is strong, the manufacture of flintlock pistols will be more complicated than that of arquebuses.
In particular, the energy storage copper sheet has a lot of technical content, so at present, Wang Dou's Jingbian Army has not been able to equip all of its flintlock pistols, and according to the estimation of the Logistics Department, the whole army will need to wait until the beginning of next year to equip itself with firearms.
Therefore, the first few units above were equipped with flintlock pistols in the whole battalion.
In all kinds of official exchanges, Wang Dou frequently communicated with Wang Pu, with the governor of Datong, with his father-in-law Ji Shiwei, with Zhu Zhifeng, Du Xun and others, so that they could also find ways to produce some grain and grass.
After sweeping away the dust, there will be no threat of Tatars entering the army, and the people can live with peace of mind.
In return, they can get meritorious points, as well as various levels of good people, elites from all walks of life, models of military support, etc., not only famous, but also have practical benefits.
Just like Zheng Jinglun and Lai Mancheng, because they belong to the first-class model of supporting the army, they were not only allowed to wear swords, but also rewarded for meritorious service.
Not only that, but they can also get close to the Marquis of Yongning from time to time and have lunch or dinner together. All kinds of industries that are in demand to make money can also be given priority to participate.
In the past, all walks of life in Donglu or Xuanfu Town generally donated money and materials to the Benevolent Hall managed by the loving mother Xie Xiuniang to improve the closeness of the shogunate.
The purpose of this charity hall is to soothe the lonely and sick widows, and often visit the widowed elderly, orphanage camp children, and homeless people in various shelters. Or go to the various Tunpu schools to visit the schoolchildren. For lunch, give them an egg or something.
In the past, such a function of Daming was to set up a reserve warehouse. for famine. Usually rice grains, etc. It also relies on private donations, and there are special commendation provisions, such as private grain recipients. Or reward them as righteous people, and they may not worship the officials, or give them crowns and scatter officials, or serve as officials, and so on.
It's just that at the end of the Ming Dynasty, how could anyone still donate? The reserve warehouses in the cities were empty, and the porridge shops were opened by fewer and fewer people.
A large part of the funds for the orphan camps and shelters set up by the shogunate also come from donations from the Good People Hall, so Xie Xiuniang is usually in the image of Guanyin Bodhisattva with great compassion on East Road, now Xuanfu Town, which is more than polarized by Wang Dou's evaluation.
It is the hostile camp, and on the surface it does not dare to say much, for fear of going out and being scolded by others.
Because the money and food are donated to the Church of the Kind, the donors do not have the fear of inviting people to buy people's hearts, and they can obtain various ideal titles, which are famous and beneficial, so why not?
After arriving at Xuanfu, many people sighed that there were many good deeds in Xuanzhen, and there was quite a sage and ancient style.
Of course, the one who is treated the most generously is when the Jingbian Army goes to war, donates military rations and other materials, and can have the title of model of supporting the army at all levels, and can also receive meritorious service.
However, there are not many such opportunities, and it is necessary to donate 100 stones of grain and rice, but compared to the future harvest, the shrewd donations, this account can still be calculated, so the three Jin merchants are the leader, and the wealthy merchants are enthusiastic to donate money and materials.
At the same time, the shogunate's information department and the Xuanzhen Times under its name also promoted more closely.
“…… Since Xuande, the northern captives have entered the border one after another, and the border people have been miserable, full of poison, and their livers and brains have been smeared, and the father and son and husband and wife cannot protect each other......"
“…… In March of the second year of Jiajing, 20,000 cavalry Kou Datong were captured. ”
"In October of the seventh year of Jiajing, Xin Chou, captured 50,000 horses, and was ...... by Kouxuanfu on the border of Dabaiyang"
"In the first month of the twentieth year of Jiajing, 30,000 horsemen were captured, and they entered Jingping from Datong Ping and attacked Lianhuayu...... In August, Jiazi, I answered 7 or 80,000 horsemen, and invaded Shilingguan, Taiyuan, Pingding, Shouyang, Mengxian, Zhending, Bauhinia, and Jingcheng in Shanxi. ”
“…… In the twenty-fourth year of Jiajing, tens of thousands of horsemen were captured, Kou Datong avant-garde, and in September, tens of thousands of horsemen were convicted of Datong Middle Road......"
"On the fourth day of the first month of the 31st year of Jiajing, I first paid tribute to 40 horses and 400 horses, and at night led the crowd to recapture all the horses, invaded Datong, and robbed people and animals on a large scale...... On the ninth day of the first month of February, he entered Datong again and plundered the fortresses of Dayong and Weilu......"
"In August of the 33rd year of Jiajing, Yihai captured more than 100,000 horsemen, and then diverted into Datong and Pingyuwei...... In September of the first year of Longqing, I answered the northern captives, tens of thousands of horses rode into Kou Datong Jingping, Shanxi Yaotou Pass, Laoying Fort, donkey skin cellar everywhere ......"
“…… This invasion of all kinds, the gods and men of heaven and earth are indignant, the Jingbian army under the command of the Marquis of Yongning, without hesitation, should gather troops to kill the murderous things, put an end to Zhuyi, and appease the frontier! ”
"A big river has wide waves, and the wind blows the fragrance of rice and flowers on both sides ......"
The chorus of the children in the orphanage camp in various cities and forts goes straight to people's hearts and makes people's hearts tremble.
In all parts of Xuanfu Town, especially in the streets of the cities on East Road, there are many sword dancers and singers, such as Wen Jinghe and Zhong Ding of Lingyun Society, who wept and wrote blood letters, and groups of teenagers fought on the streets.
"The wind blows and frosts, the seaweed withers, and the muscles are dry and strong. There are 300,000 soldiers of the Han family, and the general is also the leader of Huo Yao......"
Zhou Houren's face was flushed, he held his glass, and the scabbard slapped the table hard, in this restaurant in Baoanzhou City, there were several floors up and down, densely packed, all of them were like him.
Li Xiangqing has found a tent ministry in the state city, looking at Brother Zhou today, it seems that he has changed a person, and the whole restaurant is also a fanatic, he is a little scared and a little excited.
Listen to the singing again, with a loud and neat, sword scabbard slapping sound: "...... The meteor white feather is inserted around the waist, and the sword flower autumn lotus light is out of the box. The heavenly soldiers shine on the snow under the jade pass, and the captured arrows shoot golden armor like sand. The clouds, dragons, winds and tigers are all handed back, and the enemy can be destroyed when Taibai enters the moon. The enemy can be destroyed, the head is destroyed, and the intestines of the beard are involved in the blood. ”
In the end, the whole restaurant roared and sang together.
"Hanging Hu in the sky, burying Hu Zi plugged around. Hu no one. Han Daochang. ”
"Are they still from my Daming Kingdom?"
Many people from outside Xuanfu are secretly frightened, they are like the secret spies in the town, they say that Hu'er is strong, women, children, old and young can fight, but their fierce spirit is much lower than these Xuanfu people, but it is much lower than these Xuanfu people.
Whenever I saw them, I thought of the violent Qin, rejoiced when I heard the battle, and held the head in one hand. With a sword in one hand. There was blood dripping on it, and the merit was the goal they were chasing.
"This is what Yongning Hou said about opening up the wisdom of the people? The result? ”
Sun Chuanting looked at the boiling crowd downstairs, the cold light of the sword. Dazzling his eyes. Compared to the insensitivity of the people in many places. It is always boiling here, and the density of readers here is also the highest in the Ming Dynasty. Young bachelors account for the majority.
Especially on the East Road, every city, every pond, and every Tunpu have schools, and all school-age children need to be enrolled.
They are exempt from tuition, but also provide clothing and meals, they learn the six arts of the gentleman: etiquette, music, archery, royal, calligraphy, mathematics, as well as Huayi's debate, all kinds of knowledge, etc., so from the outsider's point of view, Xuanfu Town people, always have a special temperament, confident and high-spirited.
However, Sun Chuanting felt that similar to the people of Xuanfu Town appearing in the cities of Daming, it was difficult for the dynasty to rule, and it was difficult for the government to govern.
Not to mention anything else, the flow of people with swords in front of them, all of them have also learned the art of technical combat, and they are brave in various places, which is their opponent? Something happened casually, and the two sides faced off, only to flee in embarrassment.
But here, not to mention the army stationed in the city, it is the patrol department, the strength is also strong, each patrol, in addition to the waist knife and iron ruler, but also carries a bird and a handcuff, in terms of suppression pressure, has the upper hand in the duel, and the people on the east road have a strong sense of discipline, so nothing happened.
It's just that the more people who handle the gun certificate, maybe in the future, most people in the entire Xuanfu Town will have bird guns, so what should I do with patrols, carry chariots, eagle cannons, and Baizi guns? Franc machine, Hongyi cannon? This thought flashed through Sun Chuanting's mind.
"Yongning Hou spent a lot of money to open up the wisdom of the people, although the sage is taught without class, but I don't know whether it is good or bad."
A staff member.
"They are both Han Chinese, they are no longer the same."
Sun Chuanting thought to himself.
Wang Dou is also paying attention to the cities, and he feels that there is already a trend of thought in Xuanfu Town, a simple nationalist trend of thought, looking at the whole world, maybe only Spain at this time, there is a little bit of the rudimentary form of a nation-state.
Observing history, only nation-states are qualified to enter the ranks of modern and modern, and when will nation-states appear in the East?
……
"Great God, I am the emperor, the great life is set, and the solid support is glorious. Ji Ben Yi He, Yude Spring Palace, Ji Zhi Yi He, vassal state Yining. Qingyan Baishi, Ze was born in groups, long live the thousand autumns, and become a permanent view. ”
The chorus of hundreds of thousands of people, resounding in the sky, August 1, the fifteenth year of Chongzhen, the sky is high and refreshing, there is a slight chill, the big teaching field of Xuanfu Town, the black pressure is full of people's heads, one phalanx after another, it seems to spread to the sky.
In the song of the Emperor Ming, the sun, moon and wave flags flying in the wind slowly rose to the sky, everyone saluted, one by one drew their swords and raised them in front of their chests, the dense cold light shone, Wang Dou also saluted with a sword, raised his sword and sang.
God, Haotian God, the beginning of all things, the Lord of the gods, endless mystery, endless majesty. The Son of Heaven, the divine authority of the king, is appointed by the heavens, has a long life and eternal prosperity, inherits the will of the heavens, and is appointed by the gods of Haotian to rule the earth.
After thinking about it carefully, Wang Dou still decided to set "The Song of the Emperor of Heaven" as the town song of Xuanfu Town.
The Ming Dynasty set all kinds of movement repertoire in the third year of Hongwu, because there are too many outstanding music, "The Song of the Emperor of the Heavenly Emperor" is only used as the music of the banquet, but Wang Dou believes that this song is enough to be used as the national anthem of the Ming Dynasty.
"Wansheng Wansheng Wansheng ......"
The huge military parade was being held, the phalanxes marched neatly, the sound of military boots, and the hunting wave flags, like a turbulent sea.
"The emperor is extremely young, and he is far away from Yu Tang. Heqinghai Yanxi, Wufu Minkang ......"
In the grand Yanjing Kaiyun Song movement, a phalanx passed by the martial arts stage, and every time they passed by the stage, they pulled out their sabers to salute, and Wang Dou on the stage also raised their swords in return from time to time.
Ji Shiwei, Zhu Zhifeng, Du Xun and others on the stage were eye-opening, and everyone was intimidated by the vast scene in front of them.
The tidal wave of cheers sounded, but it was the military cadet phalanx walking, divided into three formations according to age, and it was Wang Dou's son Wang Zheng who walked in the front, holding a sun and moon flag with his own hand, and the flag flew like fiery red waves.
In the formation, the sons of the generals, Han Hou, Han Si, Gao Dexiang, etc., all with tight faces, walked neatly.
The students of the Military Academy have always felt mysterious, especially the major generals, the sons and nephews of the generals appeared, and the people did not hesitate to cheer them, accompanied by their military boots, roaring like a mountain and a tsunami, desperately crowded and shouted.
Wang Dou was dressed in military uniform, riding his horse, he passed by the phalanx in front of him, the black pressed the sea of people, and countless eyes moved with the movement of his horses.
"Salute to the Great General!"
"Wan Sheng!"
"Salute!"
"Wan Sheng!"
"Salute to the Great General!"
"Wan Sheng! Wansheng! Wansheng! ”
The Jingbian army on the teaching ground, as well as countless people, shouted feverishly, and raised their swords in the direction of Wang Dou.
The cheers were like a tsunami, the frenzy was like the spread of the virus, and countless people were drunk, Wang Dou just calmly watched all this and rode his horse.
All the Jingbian military formations moved forward in an orderly manner, crossed the teaching field, and went directly to the outside of the fortress.
On that day, the army marched out to conquer, and the armor, chariots, horses, and banners were flourishing, shining in Sichuan and Lu. (To be continued.) For mobile phone users, please go to read. )
