A few hours later, in a military camp in Tianjing City, nearly 1,100 defenders who had surrendered had their braids cut off and were divided into more than a dozen groups and rigorously drilled by more than a dozen combatants.
In addition to the dozens of leaders with bad records who were killed among the 1,100 defenders, some soldiers who were old or too weak were devolved into ordinary people.
In the military camp, Yanzu looked at the more than a thousand people training and found Zhang Yijun, the leader of the women's special team.
"Tomorrow you and some people will start cleaning up the whole city and ask everyone to cut off the braids on the back of their heads. If they don't cooperate, they will be killed directly."
"At the same time, we will start organizing personnel to recruit troops in the city tomorrow. I will give you two months to train 10,000 troops."
There are hundreds of thousands of people in Tianjing City, so there is no problem in selecting 10,000 people from them.
The food in the city is enough to last for several months. Even if the Qing Dynasty blocks Tianjing's food sources, there will be no short-term impact.
As for sending a large army to suppress it, Yanzu was not panicked at all.
As long as the Manchu army dared to come, Yanzu did not need to send people out to fight or defend the city. He directly sent out armed helicopters and fighter jets. After a sudden burst, even a hundred thousand troops assembled could only be a group of living targets.
At the same time, the urgent military information from the Imperial Palace in the capital and eight hundred miles away was also sent to the Forbidden City at this time.
"Your Majesty, there is an urgent report from Tianjing City!"
"What happened?" Kang Xi, who was slumped on the dragon chair, asked in a lukewarm tone.
"Your Majesty, Tianjing City has been occupied by a group of rebels who came from the sea in a large ship."
Hearing the news here, Kang Xi, who was slumped on the dragon chair, immediately became energetic.
"When did it happen?"
"Just three hours ago."
"It's only been three hours that the huge Tianjing City has been occupied by rebels?" Kang Xi asked in a bad tone.
"Your Majesty, this group of rebels came from the sea in a big ship. Not only do they have powerful firearms, but they also have a big iron bird that can fly."
"Immediately let someone find out the details of these rebels."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Yanzu was completely unaware of Jingcheng Kangxi's reaction at this time.
At this time, he was practicing peacefully in seclusion in a mansion in Tianjing City.
Because this world is also a world with the original energy of the universe, since you can cultivate Yanzu, you will naturally not waste time.
At this time, the real queen whom he brought from the 1990s was also brought to this house by him.
However, Yanzu just arranged for a dozen maids to serve her and didn't interfere.
He could see that this woman was still very afraid of him.
When this woman is completely submissive, it won't be too late for him to accept her.
Anyway, the other party was already a piece of meat on the felt board, so he was not in a hurry.
The next morning, Zhang Yijun arranged for people to announce to everyone in the city that the pigtail cutting policy had been implemented.
"Everyone, listen, I will give you one day to cut off the braid on the back of your head. Tomorrow, anyone with a whip in the city will be reduced to a slave with fifty sticks."
These people were beating gongs and shouting in the city and posted corresponding notices everywhere in the city.
The notice also contained corresponding information about recruiting soldiers with high salaries.
Fuming Army Recruitment Announcement:
Conditions: Aged 18 to 30, young and strong, in good health. Those who meet the requirements will be paid 5 taels per month.
"Fu Ming Army!"
In front of the notice, a group of ordinary people looked at the contents of the notice with different expressions.
At this time, the Ming Dynasty had only been destroyed for a few decades, and there were still many anti-Qing people among the people.
The largest anti-Qing organization was the Tiandihui.
And there is also the existence of the Tiandihui in Tianjing City.
Among the people watching the notice at this time were members of the Tiandihui.
When these members of the Tiandihui saw the recruitment notice, they immediately went to the branch of the Tiandihui in the city.
"This is cutting pigtails and recruiting soldiers. Doesn't this force us to rebel?"
Some people who live a fairly good life frown at the content of the notice.
No matter which dynasty it is, those who rebel are those who cannot survive or are forced to rebel.
But those wealthy gentry who live a decent life will not have such rebellious thoughts.
However, at this time when the Manchus ruled, everyone in China was already wearing braids.
The old idea of growing one's hair or not doing so has become deeply ingrained in this generation's thinking.
The next day, due to the pigtail cutting policy, the number of people on the street was significantly reduced.
Even many business doors were not open.
Because these people were afraid that the Fuming Army's rebellion would fail, they would be implicated after cutting off their braids.
But the Fuming Army's notice had already stated that if you didn't cut off your braids, you would be directly demoted to slavery and have to fight for fifty years.
After fifty battles, even if he doesn't die, he will probably be beaten into a cripple.
Therefore, these people simply hid and stayed behind closed doors.
As for recruiting soldiers, at the end of a day, the number of people who came to recruit soldiers was only a few dozen.
Obviously after decades of rule by the Manchus, few people would be willing to take the risk of rebelling unless they had to.
In the next few days, as the Fuming Army organized personnel to conduct an inventory of the city, and after dealing with hundreds of people in the streets, those who had a sense of luck had no choice but to cut off the rat tails on the back of their heads.
However, there has not been much progress in recruiting soldiers. The total number of soldiers recruited in several days has only just exceeded one hundred.
Compared with what happened in Tianjing, Kang Xi in the capital, after several days of preparation, also sent a mighty 30,000 troops to come here to judge today.
One day later, the combatants in charge of patrol reported the news to Wu Jun, who was in charge of city defense.
Wu Jun was a subordinate that Yanzu had recruited in the Equatorial World.
After a whole year of training in the world of I Am Legend, he was finally selected by Yanzu to serve as the commander of this hundred-man combat brigade.
After the capture of Tianjing City, he was responsible for the city defense work.
As for Zhang Yijun, the leader of the other women's special forces team, she is responsible for public security in the city and supervising the training of the new army.
"Report to the commander, the patrol team has received news that the Manchu Qing Dynasty has assembled 30,000 troops and set off from the capital. It will take at most three days to reach Tianjing City."
After receiving the news, Wu Jun pondered for a moment and immediately issued a series of instructions.
"Let the first company prepare. The day after tomorrow we will go out of the city and annihilate the 30,000 Manchu army."
The so-called first company consists of more than a hundred recruits recruited from the city in the past few days.
Although these talents have been training for several days, they have already learned how to shoot.
When the Qing Dynasty's 30,000 troops arrive this time, it will be completely fine to let these people see blood.
After all, the real battle must be fought by these original combatants.
Of course, before the official battle, there must be a bombing by helicopters.
Facing an army of 30,000 people, even hundreds of people holding AKs cannot stop the impact of such an army.
But as long as the armed helicopters bombard it first and let them take care of the finishing touches, there won't be any problem.
