Chapter 301 Shanxi's powerful

In the evening, Yuci.

At this time, the land of Yuci was calm, and there were traces of battle left at the low but very strong city gate. Cavalry riding tall horses and half-armored cavalry patrolled the city gate. There were more than a dozen large-diameter fires on the top of the city.

The gun is a very rare Western-style smoothbore gun that can only be seen in the coastal areas of Zhejiang and Guangdong. The equipment used by Shanxi merchants to protect their homes is more than the Ming army. They are all purchased from the coastal areas.

The most advanced weapon in the region.

More than a dozen bowl-mouth guns that can be called cannons cannons cannons, and you can tell at a glance that they were removed from the navy warship. This thing has a very long range of more than a dozen volleys, and the small group of cavalry really dare not get close to them.

The gun was shot up and it was a big hole. I thought that firing toxic lead bullets would definitely kill me if I was involved. It was the nemesis of a small group of cavalrymen. A large group of cavalrymen rolled in. The head of the Chang family, who had already received the news, brought the Chang family's children to welcome him in person.

Settling down two thousand iron cavalry in Changjia Fort in Yuci.

Changjiabao covers a large area and has several large villages, and it is effortless to settle two thousand cavalrymen.

This is the native tyrant in Shanxi, but not just a wealthy businessman, but a family. There are hundreds or thousands of families. The big family that has been reproduced for 240 years often lives in the entire village with relatives.

The scene can be seen everywhere in the inland areas more than three hundred years later, not to mention Shanxi during the Ming Dynasty. Hundreds of villages and towns where the same family members live in are everywhere, and the clan laws are more effective than the ban on governments.

Chang'an, ancestral hall.

The ancestor worshipped the clan and asked the clan method to whip out several family children who escaped before the battle. The contemporary clan leader of the Chang family was a smart man, so he naturally understood that it was time to do his best. The Chang family was able to defect to Macheng, which was even more wise now.

They would refuse and dig out the armor and weapons hidden in their homes, and the three hundred Chang's children followed the Kaiyuan Iron Cavalry to fight. This was also a big gamble. They bet on the wealth of the Chang family for three generations and the future of the Chang family.

The three hundred Chang family members were all trained according to Kaiyuan Military Method, and they were able to fight when they were able to fight, but they lacked some practical experience. However, Ma Cheng was already very satisfied. There was no better soldier than this. The three hundred cavalry still hugged them together.

The family's children had extremely strong combat power. After the war, this cavalry would also join the Kaiyuan Army. Macheng must give him several official positions, and at least a new army guerrilla general, and draw a big cake first.

The Chang family was overjoyed. The Chang family did not have the foundation of a scholarly disciple. Over the years, only a few scholars were produced. Military positions, especially the real power military positions, became the only way out. A real power guerrilla general was born in Shanxi.

, even if it is a wealthy family. The sky is high and the emperor is far away. A guerrilla general is a small shrimp in the capital. In a place like Shanxi, no one dares to offend a powerful man. Anyone has to consider the weight of the new army's guerrillas and the emperor's guards.

.

The elders of the Chang family were in charge of Yuci, and more than ten wealthy families in Yuci were sent to help the battle.

Finally, five hundred cavalry were collected and all handed over to a young man named Chang Guodong, who was in charge of the Chang family. He first gave him a deputy battalion official and two posts, and the battalion officer was personally held by Ma Xiaowu. This battalion cavalry officer was appointed by Ma Xiaowu.

Originally, it was compiled according to Kaiyuan Military Law, and it was very easy to command. The Chang family was not a fool, so they naturally knew that if they won this battle, the deputy battalion officer would be promoted. If they lost this battle, they would lose all of them.

The next day, a cavalry expanded to 2,500 people rushed to Datong. Along the way, they would wipe out the small groups of enemy cavalry. When they encountered large groups of soldiers, they would take a detour. They would take a few circles around Datong, and hid in the mountains.

Finally found a good opportunity in two days, the entire army rushed straight into Datong City without any effort. The main force of the prisoner who was plundering Datong was not too late to stop him, so he had to give up. Although Dorgon was arrogant, he was not stupid.

The 20,000 Jianlu divided their troops to plunder. They did not touch the city but only plunder villages and towns, and did not even touch the larger towns and forts. The iron cavalry entered Datong and did not see the Shanxi Governor Liu Ce. Instead, Datong General Wang Wei came to greet him in person. Ma Cheng met

The general of Datong had no impression, only knew that the Wang family of Datong was also a family of generals. It was not until General Wang called his sons to salute that Ma Cheng looked at a boy of sixteen or seventeen years old, and suddenly realized that the boy was called Wang

servant.

Wang Pu, the fleeing general in the Battle of Songshan is this half-large young man. This general Wang Wei is Wang Pu's biological father. He is now the most military commander in Datong Town. As for the governor Liu Ce, Ma

The city was really lazy to see that Qingliu was the remnant of the emperor in Shanxi. Eunuch Wei was too slow to clean up him. Sooner or later, he said goodbye to General Wang, settled his subordinates in the inner city, and hurried to Zhou Mansion.

Datong Zhou family is inconspicuous in Datong, which is as numerous as dogs, but it is not easy to bully. After all, there is a family member who is the general in Kaiyuan. Although the daughter of the Zhou family has been divorced, no one can do it.

Give some face, after all, there is an admiral here, who knows whether the two families will make up? When I arrived at Zhou Mansion, I asked him and found out that the aunt who was traitor had died in the village outside the city a few years ago, and the horse bandits

With his hands in his hands, even the older brother Ma Ran had more than a hundred maids and servants died in a bad life.

Ma Cheng looked at the respectful old lady Zhou and was stunned and a little awesome. This was the Zhou family's claim. A few years ago, he killed the mother and son, and he was really cruel but had to admit it.

The Zhou family did a great job. Do brothers kill each other? Ma Cheng has long been as heart-warming as iron. People are not as good as dogs in troubled times. There are all famous generals who eat people, let alone brothers kill each other. They unconsciously looked up to the Zhou family.

.

After returning to the room to rest, a slim woman rushed over and beat him hard. The two maids closed the door shyly. Ma Cheng felt a passionate heart in his heart to deal with Zhou Yunyan's entanglement. He asked her to go home half a year ago. This farewell is

Having not seen each other for half a year, this cousin became more and more erotic. He walked on the bed together. Both of them forgot that the wind and rain were still in the storm outside, and the army was approaching, hiding in the warm inner house to live a world of two.

The clouds are closed and the rain stops, Zhou Yunyan bathes for her husband, shaving her beard, and her tenderness is like water.

Ma Cheng was particularly sober at this time. After all, he felt that he was in debt to this cousin, so he became gentler.

It was good to sleep all night, the next day.

Under the nose of the governor, the Zhou family in Datong cannot imitate the Chang family to raise private soldiers without restraint, but there are five hundred tourists outside the city. Ma Cheng has long known in his mind that this is not a farmer, and this is the group who has received military training.

A strong man, picking up weapons means military force, and putting down weapons means farming people. People say that snakes have ways to protect themselves. No wonder that even Emperor Chongzhen dared to touch Shanxi in later generations.

Jiangnan is a collusion between scholars and merchants, Shanxi is a collusion between soldiers and merchants, every family has private soldiers, every family has people leading troops in the army, and the Ming Dynasty's official army is also private soldiers. This is not a surprise to Shanxi people. Shanxi is really plagued by many disasters.

How difficult is the place where military strategists must fight for. Every year, the Mongols are plundering, and there are horse bandits everywhere. If you don’t keep some private soldiers, you will come back to the Mongols. These wealthy and prominent families are all delicious fat and have been eaten dry.

It was clean, and as soon as the military and merchants colluded, the imperial edict came to Shanxi was a decoration.
