Chapter 790 Jia Heng: According to my Han law, he will be executed
Hao Jing
The night falls and everything is silent.
The surrounding area of Governor Hao Jing's official residence was brightly lit and crowded with people. Groups of soldiers from the Guangdong Haihai Division wearing cotton and red armor stood around the high white wall, holding the Yan Fei Dao tightly on their waists to guard the surrounding area.
As news from all directions gradually gathered, the Guangdong Navy had taken over the entire Haojing Island, and Jia Heng was "invited" to stay in a small brick-concrete building southwest of the Australian Governor's official residence.
In the study room, sitting behind the mahogany bookshelf, I picked up a volume and read it.
At this time, with the sound of light footsteps, Chen Xiao entered the study and handed over the book in his hand. His face was as cold as frost and he whispered: "This is the information sent from Jinling. In recent months, Jiangnan
The recruitment of soldiers in the Jiangbei camp has gradually been filled, and training has begun. The salt voting method in the Huaihe and Huaihe areas has been a great success. Huaiyan salt has been selling well in the two rivers recently. Huguang provinces have salt areas, and the Lianghuai Salt Transportation Department has made a lot of profits.
, in less than a month, there are 800,000 taels of profit in the warehouse."
During the period when Jia Heng set off from Jinling and arrived at Guangdong Sea, various affairs in Jinling and Yangzhou were in full swing after Jia Heng took a head start, and the salt affairs and military affairs achieved remarkable results.
Lin Ruhai and Qi Kun were both capable ministers and officials. After Jia Heng determined the longitude and latitude, he led the officials of the Lianghuai Salt Transportation Department to conduct an inventory of the Lianghuai Salt Fields. They mainly investigated the salt cooking conditions of the salt cooking households. At the same time,
The method of sun-salting was introduced.
The arrival of a group of young generals from the Jia family, such as Xie Zaiyi and Cai Quan, helped Jia Heng strengthen his control over the soldiers and horses of the Jiangnan camp before retreating to training.
The navy and the infantry all fall.
Even though I knew that given the circumstances I was facing many years later, it was possible for me to have such ambition, I still had no expectations in my heart.
After Du Zhenqin left, Du Zhen looked at the bright moonlit autumn night in the courtyard. The autumn wind in late October blew in his face, bringing a bit of warmth.
Hao Jing was only suffering from scabies, and even that time it was hard to say that there was no small achievement at all.
Jia Heng looked slightly solemn, cupped his fists and said, "Captain."
Carlos said: "You are not worried about that. From the count's point of view, even if you sell them cannons, you will buy them from others, but you think that such a small number of cannons may not be made in a short time.
"
Jia Heng and I tried to sneak in there by pretending to be workers, but we were unable to get close to the core area. Looking at it now, we finally caught a glimpse of the details of the construction of the Western fire gun.
Hongyi picked up the tea cup, took a deep sip, and left the desk, saying, "Go out for a walk? Or play chess? There is no chess over there."
It turned out that before the crew heard that Governor Carlos of Haojing had not been harmed, they originally wanted to escape with Jia Hengwen. After floating in the small sea for a long time, under the leadership of a captain, they brought Jia Hengwen and Alam to the rescue.
The brother-in-law and brother-in-law were tied up and surrendered to the pursuing Guangdong Navy.
After all the calculations, it has indeed been changed. It has been a long time since I came to Guangzhou.
Xiaoxiao may have been lonely for too long and seems to want to find someone to talk to.
Hongyi picked up the teacup, took a sip, and changed the subject and said: "When things are unclear over there in Haojing, we will take a boat to bring down the fire blunderbuss and there are still no craftsmen. We should go back early, and we can also go back here in Jiangnan."
None of it is worry."
It was a warship with a speed of dozens of knots. The sailboat needed supplies under the sea, and Jia Heng heard that it would not be long before he had to dock to replenish his supplies.
Hong Yi said: "It's possible..."
Hongyi smiled and said: "If he is sleepy, he can go and rest first. You will have to write a memorial later."
"It's possible that he keeps going up like this, and he will eventually..." Hong Yi said.
In addition to describing the importance of Hao Jing and Chen Xiao's firearms, this article is a record of what I saw and heard in Guangdong during that time.
Saying that, he killed a pawn from Prison Xu.
Hongyi took a sip of coffee and nodded to Nona. The older girl was also afraid of strangers. Carlos on the side also put some coffee on the table and looked at the palace guard wearing a flying fish suit in shock.
As for whether Donglu will also use flintlock guns, I am actually worried that it is a bad thing, because the resource reserves and populations of the two countries are very different. Once they fall into an arms race, the one who will be brought down first will definitely be
True male.
Supervisor Xu suddenly said quietly: "That can be regarded as hiding out, but a fight between Xianning and Concubine Zhen's sister-in-law is bound to happen."
At that moment, the voice of Li Shu, a member of the Jinyi Baihu family, came from the eaves of the corridor, saying in a low voice: "Commander, Zhao Yicheng and Zhao Qianhu are here."
"What's there?" Hong Yi shook his head and said.
With that said, he and Supervisor Xu left the study and came to the reception room, where they saw Jia Hengdao and Jia Heng walking slowly.
Hongyi pondered: "Your country's army is about two million, but there is not a big country in the north. It is inhabited by a group of barbarians. We often go south to harass and invade your country's territory."
The next day, the sky was getting brighter, and seagulls were flying across the sky one after another.
Du Zhen read the text below, and after a while, he sighed with emotion: "The method of voting for salt can be promoted in Hedong and Changlu Saltworks, so that profiteers and cunning officials can hide. It is said that it can be achieved every year
It can save nearly ten million taels of tax for the country."
Supervisor Xu's eyes were shining, his heart was beating slightly, and he asked in a serious voice: "What could it be?" Hong Yi nodded, said nothing more, and continued to play chess with Du Zhen.
Hongyi looked at Carlos, who was learning from Yu, and said: "Sir, in the war that you launched against your country, the suspicion of Jia Heng was very small and needs to be handed over to you for disposal."
As for who came from the Jia family, the note did not say anything, but because Jinyi had to prepare for security matters, he secretly reported that Princess Xianning and Princess Qinghe also went south with the ship.
At this point, the troubling Hao Jing conflict has completely come to an end. With that said, he picked up his brush and finished writing the memorial.
Hongyi looked at that scene and nodded secretly. Now he is introducing the flintlock gun to build the line. If he had only promoted it lightly before, he would not have a small chance of winning against Donglu.
Jia Heng said: "Those craftsmen who have not yet forged gun barrels and refined ammunition cannot be retreated to Shenjing. Fire blunderbuss are all consumables."
When are you going to be drifting in the world all the time?
Du Zhenqin introduced: "Earl, that is the place where fire guns are made. Your gun tubes have been repeatedly polished by eight shifts of workers, and there are relatively few good ones."
Witnessed by a group of Guangdong officials, Hongyi signed a contract with Du Zhenqin and exchanged contract documents. Then he followed Carlos to visit the factory of Portuguese artificial cannons and bullets.
Jia Hengdao nodded and agreed and said: "What Jia Xiaoren said is true. I think that Chen Xiao's small artillery must be deployed as a sergeant in your court. It will be even more powerful for your little Han King's division. At this time, thousands of artillery fire,
Is He Chounan really mediocre?"
The Eighth Battalion still lacked a low-level military academy to command the first level, but this did not hinder Xie Zaiyi and others from training and rectifying the Jiangnan small camp. After several days of invitation, the vigorous rectification had not yet started.
In the far northeastern border, no big country always harassed the Han people and plundered their goods and people.
Xu Jian said in a clear voice: "In the morning, the Guangdong Marine Corps has not gone after us. Do we have a lot of fresh water and supplies? We should run far away. It will be a long time before there is any news."
Hongyi said: "Let us retreat."
After the two parties exchanged pleasantries, the guests and hosts took their seats. Hongyi looked at Jia Hengdao aggressively and asked: "Du Zhencheng, who has been lingering in Haojing for a long time, what do you think of Du Zhenren's musket?"
Du Zhenqin's wife was in charge of the cooking, and she cooked some meals with unique Portuguese tastes and some desserts. After the meal was finished, Hongyi and Du Zhenqin talked about business during the morning tea.
When Hongyi heard this, his face paused slightly, he put the tea cup in his hand and asked: "How did you catch him?"
After about two quarters of an hour, Hongyi put the brush under the pen holder, waited for the writing on the notebook to dry, and rubbed his sore wrist.
As for flintlock guns, there are not nearly a hundred Hao mirrors. Others need to be temporarily manufactured or transported from China. Hongyi immediately ordered 8,000 guns and a small amount of ammunition to prepare to replace the Shenji camp watches in Guoyong camp.
bird gun.
Seeing Duonan's silence, Hongyi kept talking and asked, "Is there any news from Jia Heng here?"
I don't think it's anything weird at all, but I think I've been playing chess with him.
Hongyi was startled, and said in a serious voice: "At this time, I might take a walk on Xiao Han Qi, or I might go to the sea. Baoqin went to very few places by boat, looking up at the smallness of the universe.
Observe the prosperity of the categories, express my love for the mountains and rivers, and wait until this time to bring you Xianning and Chanyue."
Jia Hengdao bowed his hands to Du Zhen and said, "Shangguan Jia Hengdao has met Mr. Jia."
The factory covers an area of more than ten acres. There are Portuguese craftsmen outside, not Han Chinese, but they are only engaged in some high-end manual work.
Hongyi smiled again and said: "Back in the Ming Dynasty and the reign of Zhengde and Jiajing, Chen Xiao's firearms such as the Franco cannon were already powerful in the north and south. However, a hundred years later, Chen Xiao's firearms are changing day by day, even if they follow the same steps.
, After careful study over time, the skills have gradually matured, and your Xiaohan weapons are still using firearms that have been used for hundreds of years. The Guangdong navy has had small battles with Chen Xiao's ships. If it weren't for your warships,
With fewer guns and fewer weapons, I’m afraid the outcome will be unclear.”
Du Zhenqin frowned, looked closely at Hong Yi's face, and asked, "What does the earl plan to do with me?"
Shao Duo should be willing to give up. Now that he is active in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, it is already a month late, so he knows that something is brewing again.
At that moment, a guard inside ran from nearby and said: "Captain, General Wu intercepted Jia Hengwen in Wanshan Town."
"When the crew members off the ship heard the news about Hao Jing, they all wanted to follow Jia Hengwen to escape, so they kidnapped a few of them." Jinyi Mansion guard said in a low voice.
Carlos said loudly: "Count, your country has purchased so few small cannons, and it is indeed necessary to introduce a construction line, but why do you need so few small cannons?
This was also the place where Jia Hengdao and Du Zhenhou bribed the craftsmen and infiltrated by pretending to be workers, but were discovered by Carlos.
Nona on the side looked at Hongyi who was talking about things with her father. She was not curious at all. How could such a Han official speak the language of Li?
Sure enough, he has these dirty thoughts.
With Xiaohan's size and wealth, as long as he catches up, he can quickly establish an advantage in military equipment.
After successive negotiations with Carlos, the Portuguese installed 84 Du Zhen cannons under the beacons and ships at Haojing Bank and sold 74 to the Han army at a high price. At the same time, they also added the 84 Du Zhen cannons stored in the Portuguese warehouses.
The well-made Lumi gun was used to offset part of the rent owed to Chen Han for seventy-one years, which was as low as 1.7 million taels of silver.
Hongyi took the chess board, arranged the chess pieces, and said solemnly: "Among so few people, he is the weakest in chess."
Supervisor Xu said "Yeah".
Hongyi put down the paper, looked at Duo Nan with a warm smile, and said loudly: "At this time, he is also on guard duty and cannot help Xianning."
Hong Yi smiled and said: "Zhao Yicheng, firing a thousand cannons is a difficult matter. Yes, if you want to make Chen Xiao cannons or even change the manufacturing process, the worst is to achieve independent casting, those still need to be made."
I would like to thank all the talented people in the Ordnance Supervisor."
Hearing this, Hongyi felt slightly happy and asked in surprise: "Is it too late to reach Yangzhou?"
Riding and shooting is a bad practice. If you have to use your own shortcomings to attack others' strengths, you have to use your own shortcomings to attack others' strengths.
Xu Jianqing's eyes flashed, and an indescribable peace filled his heart.
Suffering a bad reputation and causing the descendants of previous generations to be invaded by Western barbarians again is a crime for the present and a benefit for the future. It should be a long time ago.
From the fire door gun to the matchlock gun, and then to the flintlock gun, in fact, the current equipment of the Xiaohan Shenji Battalion is not a matchlock gun.
After Du Zhen said that, he looked at Jia Heng who was nearby and asked: "Zhao Qianhu worked hard that time. When we get to Beijing, Zhao Qianhu can go to Beizhen Fusi as an errand."
Hong Yi swallowed back the wife who was in her mouth, changed her words and said solemnly: "After all, we have to settle down, and we can always float in the world."
"Thank you, Commander-in-Chief." Upon hearing this, Jia Heng quickly stood up and cupped his hands.
Hong Yi said: "Tomorrow, when Jia Heng hears the news here, we will walk around the seven places under Haojing Island."
Du Zhen: "???"
Du Zhendao: "Those officials will negotiate with the Portuguese in Haojing and try to introduce them to your country as soon as possible."
Du Zhendao: "Open the sea to the imperial court and rebuild the city ship lifting department."
When talking about it, he looked at Duo Nan across from him and asked, "What are you doing all of a sudden?" At that time, Chen Xiao was only far better than the young man in the skill of fire gun, and his other skills were not unique at all. See if you can find some useless things.
Jia Hengdao was currently observing the factory with his eyes turned, taking in the unfamiliar skills of the Portuguese craftsmen, with a look of amazement on his face.
The only thing I'm worried about is Chen Xiao Pao, which needs to be kept secret.
I felt a little relieved. Two million troops would make our country's population much smaller?
He took the paper from Du Zhen, read it, frowned, and said solemnly: "Xianning and Chanyue are both here."
Hongyi nodded slightly and said: "The worst thing is to train unfamiliar workers less and develop a set of mature manufacturing techniques. You plan to retire Chen Xiao's craftsmen to teach them techniques, and recruit translators from Guangdong to help make cannons." Maybe make less cannons."
I asked why the cannon barrel was so rough, that’s why it was!
"Let's play chess." Supervisor Xu pursed his lips and said seriously.
Hearing this, Du Zhen reached out and took the thin book from Supervisor Xu's hand. He frowned slightly and lowered his eyes to read. The bottom of the book mainly contained an introduction to the situation of the small camp in Jiangnan and Jiangbei.
The expert is looking at the doorway, and the inside is silent. At a glance, the barbarian craftsmen are nimble and unfamiliar in their movements, and they are polishing the blunderbuss tubes with various well-known knives.
In the sequence of Jinyi Mansion, among the North and South Town Fusi, the North Town Fusi is the most prestigious.
Immediately he reacted, Duo Nan's beautiful brows and eyes suddenly filled with warmth, and he glared at this man for many years.
Hongyi smiled and said: "Sir, you are worried about the distance between your two countries. Even if you get a blunderbuss, you will still go all the way to the sea to conquer a country that you have always known. There is no such thing in Chinese history." Traveling to faraway places to fight against other countries."
Australian Governor's Official Residence
Du Zhen listened to many years of sighs and took out a piece of paper from his sleeve and said loudly: "You haven't even sent a letter from Fei Ge, saying that the eldest princess has arrived at Huai'an Mansion by boat. In a few days, Just arrived in Yangzhou."
"Where's Xiaoxiao?" Hongyi casually asked Duo Nan, who looked lost in thought.
Supervisor Xu sat down, picked up the tea cup, and took a sip. Looking at this man who had been sitting upright and writing in handwriting for many years, his eyes were focused on his two sword-shaped eyebrows, and his expression was very focused.
That was the first time that Hongyi had seen the two people since he sent them to Haojing to supervise the army. Hongyi looked at Jia Hengdao, his eyes a little violent, and said: "Zhao Yicheng, Zhao Qianhu, thank you for your hard work. Huang'er, I haven't seen you for almost a year."
There were no Portuguese in Haojing for a long time, and there was no time to fight with the invading pirates. Guns and ammunition needed to be replenished, and it was possible to transport and replace them from the country every time, so the Portuguese built a large arsenal.
Supervisor Xu stared at these years with clear eyes, above his beautiful eyebrows, and asked in a serious voice: "Hao Jing's side is so troubled. Does he have any plans next?"
Inspector Xu was thinking about whether to stop, his eyes flickered up, he stared at Niannian and said, "What are you doing?"
Hongyi looked at Jia Hengdao on the side and asked, "Zhao Yicheng."
Hongyi and Carlos walked around the arsenal. At noon, Hongyi and Carlos came to the Governor's residence again and had a meal.
Even though Du Zhenqin served as the governor of Australia for one or four years in Haojing, due to the development of information at that time, the governor of Australia knew less about Xiaohan and was limited to Guangdong. For example, other provinces of Xiaohan also
I just heard the name.
"Broken the diplomatic relations between the two countries and launched a war, you will be executed according to your Han law." Hong Yi said in a deep voice with a hot and stern face.
Du Zhen didn't say anything, he just played with the chess pieces.
"I'm worried. In fact, Du Zhenzhi's difficulty in making paper is mainly due to the blunderbuss. I also know that some craftsmen are not skilled enough in craftsmanship. The blunderbuss tube is not smooth enough, but it is difficult to explode the chamber or use it after a long time.
." Jia Hengdao explained, looking confident.
Supervisor Xu paused his hands slightly and said: "The male true in Liaodong will definitely be wiped out one day. What will he do?"
Du Zhenqin's tanned face looked simple and emotional as he said, "If I hadn't been sent to Haojing by Jia Xiaoren, I would have known that Du Zhen's firearms were not so powerful."
The flintlock gun was actually invented by Bi Maokang in the Ming Dynasty at the end of the Ming Dynasty in a parallel time and space. His learning was a full hundred years behind the West. However, because of Bi Maokang's personal career decline, it was not popularized like the sweet potato.
Compared with Jiangnan Jiangbei Xiaoying and Jiangnan official circles, there are not many obstacles in the trip to Guangdong. Do any local officials dare to confront me? After all, the economic focus of the entire Xiaohan is now Guangdong Province.
, but Jiangnan.
Hearing this, Hongyi raised his eyes to look at Duonan and said seriously: "Well, it was too late for the weather to get bad at that time. He will wait for you to finish writing the memorial."
Supervisor Xu pursed his pink lips and said solemnly: "You were really sleepy at that time." Supervisor Xu frowned and raised his clear, jade-like eyes, and said: "It's quite bad for him to think that way.
Slow down the flow and advance bravely, be wise and wise to protect yourself.”
At this moment, Haili smiled and went over to put the coffee on the table and said, "They'll use it quickly."
