In the marching team, Guangguo Gong He Jiuyi frowned slightly, looking thoughtful.
The commander-in-chief Li Chengjue finally couldn't bear it any longer. He exchanged glances with Lei Qisheng, Huang Sanyuan and others on his left and right, urged his horse to take a few steps forward, and said: "My lord, I heard that His Highness Min intends to ask the old generals of Guangxi to come to help. Should I wait?"
Just bring these hundreds of troops to join us?"
Guang Guo Gong He Jiuyi looked at Li Chengjue in surprise and said displeasedly: "Who is so bold as to dare to eavesdrop on the chief's discussion and spread the word? Are there no rules?"
Li Chengjue grinned and murmured twice, but he was still stubborn on the question just now. As a trusted general of Guang Guogong, he knew that He Jiuyi would not really punish him.
He Jiuyi snorted, walked in silence for a while, and then said slowly: "His Royal Highness Min wanted to establish a base in Annan first, and then enter Guangxi to fight, so he asked the King of Jin to send generals who are familiar with the terrain of Guangxi to assist in the battle. The letter said it right
It is clear that only a few generals are needed, not a large number of soldiers, because food and grass are difficult to supply."
"These are probably His Majesty Min's words against his will." Commander-in-Chief Lei Qisheng also came up and said with certainty: "It's because he is afraid that the King of Jin will suspect that he has the intention to seize the army."
He Jiuyi pondered and shook his head slightly, and said: "That's not necessarily the case. After Tengchong's great victory, His Highness Min left King Zhao and half of his troops behind. I'm afraid he really didn't have enough food and grass. He directly mentioned my name in his letter to King Jin.
As for you, I proposed it to King Jin. If you don’t want to—"
"My lord, it's not that we are unwilling, but we feel that it is already too late to surrender. If the army is too small and the generals are few, we may not be able to use our ears." Li Chengjue told the truth, with a look of regret on his face, "I heard that Tengchong was victorious.
Later, everyone who participated will be promoted to one level and receive rewards. We have missed this opportunity."
"There will be opportunities in the future." Guangguo Gong He Jiuyi glanced at Li Chengjue and said angrily: "His Royal Highness Min wants to show off his power in Guangxi, so how can he not get the staff praise of an old Guangxi general to lead the charge?"
Only then did Li Chengjue come to his senses. What he just said seemed to mean he was complaining about He Jiuyi's leadership mistakes, so he quickly made up for it: "My lord, I made a mistake, please forgive me. I am not complaining in my heart——"
He Jiuyi waved his hand, interrupted Li Chengjue, paused, and then said seriously: "His Royal Highness Min was able to assemble the remnant armies from all walks of life to defeat the Qing army. He either has extraordinary abilities or extraordinary means. Don't think so."
Once you take the initiative, you will be able to prosper, but you need to be fearful at all times and be respectful in everything."
"The Duke's teachings will always be kept in mind." Li Chengjue and Lei Qisheng responded with their hands raised.
He Jiuyi nodded lightly and continued to ride on his horse. He brought out his old generals, firstly, so that they could be valued by His Highness Min and have a chance of promotion and rewards; secondly, he was afraid that if he left, they would stay behind.
The army of King Li Jin was squeezed and suppressed by the Jin generals.
As an old general of Sun Kewang, although He Jiuyi took the right side in the internal strife between the two kings, He Jiuyi always felt a little uneasy after he reunited with Li Dingguo. Furthermore, the troops he led were stronger than Li Dingguo, so he was inevitably worried that Li Dingguo would harbor suspicions about him.
Be wary.
Zhu Yongxing asked Li Dingguo for He Jiuyi, which made both families happy. He Jiuyi felt that most of Zhu Yongxing's subordinates were from the Qin and Shu tribes, so he should have no prejudice against him; his name was mentioned in the letter, and it was obvious that he thought highly of him and went to serve, so he should
The future is bright. And Li Dingguo can rest assured to integrate his troops, and no longer has to worry about the constraints of generals such as He Jiuyi.
In order to enable the various Ming armies to have the ability to fight again, some messy internal problems must be solved. Although this may provide some people with the opportunity to become warlords, Zhu Yongxing never wanted to see the army disintegrate due to internal strife.
Become part of the Qing army.
Li Dingguo and Bai Wenxuan were both loyal to the imperial court. Especially Li Dingguo, there was absolutely no problem with his loyalty to the Ming Dynasty. Although the object of their loyalty was not themselves, under the current situation, the cause of resisting the Qing Dynasty still required them.
.In the future, I may be able to slowly influence them and make their loyalty no longer so narrow.
Even if the obsession in their hearts cannot be changed, they can still be regarded as the Allied Forces against the Qing Dynasty. Zhu Yongxing still understands the concept and theory of the united front. As for usurping power to become emperor and unify the world, that is even more distant and incomprehensible.
When it comes to getting to the border, there are many ways to go, and the blood is flowing like a river, and the lower class is defeated.
……………
Just when Li Dingguo and others were walking on the road, which was still more than half a day's journey from Mo Nai, Zhu Yongxing was squatting on the floor in the living room, hitting a green hard object with a small hammer. It was very ugly and had many impurities. It was difficult to throw away
No one picked it up on the ground. It was basically a waste, but it should not affect its use. He finally broke a small piece and twisted the debris with his fingers to make a judgment.
"It's not bad, it can be used." Zhu Yongxing stood up, smiled and nodded at a frightened old man who didn't know where to put his hands and feet, and said: "Don't be afraid, the glass you made is up to standard, and you will be rewarded."
"Thank you, Your Highness." The old man threw up his hands and knelt down quickly.
"Get up!" Zhu Yongxing did not help him personally. He gestured to a guard next to him and sat back in the chair.
Glass powder, copper wire, and sulfur can be used to make the simplest hair pulling device, and you can make grenades and mines. Of course, the mines of the Ming Dynasty were already very advanced, with flint wheel ignition devices. But it is difficult to make them.
Too complex to be widely used.
"Your Highness, the common people will definitely think carefully about it when they get back, and make it, make it, make usable glassware." The little old man was helped up by the guards, and he promised Zhu Yongxing with a murmur.
"No, no." Zhu Yongxing hurriedly shook his head. When you come up with glassware that can be used to make money, you still don't know the Year of the Monkey and the Horse. "It's just a piece of weight, piece by piece, as long as it can be burned." Zhu Yongxing pointed to the ugly thing on the table.
Glass Tuan said: "You need a lot, the more the better, and the faster the better. I will tell your workshop manager to assign you an apprentice, and your wages will also be increased."
The old man was very confused, but he didn't dare to ask any more questions. He knelt down and kowtowed again, and was then taken out.
Alas, how many people can understand my thoughts? The loneliness of a time traveler! Zhu Yongxing shook his head with emotion, took out a pen and paper, and began to draw a schematic diagram of the ignition device. Open fire bombs can be eliminated. With wooden handle grenades, the rainy season
There is also an additional weapon in combat.
It's a pity that the curious baby Mengzhu went to Long Mansion to hang out with his god-sister again. If she was by his side, he could show off his questions and answers, which would be more fun. Zhu Yongxing finished the drawing and looked forward to it
Looking out the door, hoping that the light figure will appear soon.
