"Luzon, why did you go to Luzon?" Zhang Geda and others asked in confusion.
"Hey, don't you know that my fleet fought with the Japanese and destroyed their Tsushima fleet. By the way, they went south and took care of the Francois on Luzon Island. Now that place is called Luzon Prefecture.
It is a state and county in my Ming Dynasty."
Listening to what Mo Zhui said, the servants were all smiling. The greater the master's strength, the more they can rely on. They can also get more benefits. New territories will always need manpower. As the Yang family's home, they
Slave, naturally the one who is near the water and the tower gets the moon first.
In the past two years, all the servants sent to Vladivostok have become officials. Some are militia captains, some are village chiefs, township chiefs, and town chiefs. Some have already become household members. The children in the family will have more opportunities in the future.
"So Luzon is not a small place. It is more than half the size of Shanxi." A battalion commander of a servant asked. From the map, Luzon Island is not small.
"Shanxi is only 150,000 square kilometers, and Luzon is 110,000 square kilometers. Moreover, it is a tropical area with not only seafood but also copper mines. Rice is harvested three or even four times a year."
Chewing sugar cane and spitting out dregs all over the ground, he boasted happily.
Suddenly, these servants and officers took a breath, my dear, isn't this heaven on earth?
These servants who followed the master made a lot of money. There will definitely be some who stay in the local area and serve as officials.
"Here, this is called sugar cane. Peel it off and chew it. It will be sweet." Mo Zuo asked his men to take out some sugar cane and chop it into one-foot pieces with a fish-head knife.
"You landlubbers, you have never seen the sea. Let me tell you, there are really three-foot waves without wind. When there is wind and waves, they can be as high as ten meters. When there is a typhoon, the waves are as high as mountains." Mo Zhui boasted,
While chewing sugar cane, the juice splashed out.
"By the way, what are you doing? The master said that slave-building is coming. If you don't guard the territory, why are you going on an expedition?" When Mo Zhui saw their posture, it was the posture of the group training for an expedition. It was just right.
I was touched by myself.
They all wore military coats lined with wool and sheepskin and wore Lei Feng hats, clearly equipped for combat.
"Forget it, I'm wiping my butt again." Zhang Geda pulled the grinding table aside and whispered: "Your Majesty doesn't know why he is so crazy. He wants to go to the Guan for a decisive battle with Jian Nu. The three general soldiers outside the Guan have been defeated. Right now.
Running back."
"What? Did I hear it correctly, Your Majesty? The imperial commander personally conquered it!" Mo Zui plucked his ears in shock.
"Keep your fucking voice down, don't let the people in the Beijing camp hear it." Zhang Geda kicked him, "The master is afraid that he will make a mistake, so he asked me to protect him with the team training. If I defeat him, I can at least bring him back.
.Don’t let Jiannu capture you. He has become the second Yingzong.”
"What about Zunhua? Why do I see smoke everywhere?" Mo Zui said, looking in the direction of Zunhua City.
"Who knows, there is probably a mutiny. Since His Majesty came to the throne, mutinies have occurred every now and then. We are all numb. Who knows what it is for this time." Zhang Geda said with an indifferent expression.
Before he could finish his words, he saw a group of royal guards running over.
"The Holy One has decreed that Zhang Gedao, the training envoy of the Xinghe regiment, enters the Jinyi Guard Qianhu. He immediately leads the Xinghe regiment to train the troops and enter the city to escort them, suppressing the rebels along the way. I admire this."
Zhang Geda looked helpless. He had to accept His Majesty's appointment, but he really didn't want to have too much involvement with His Majesty. It's okay for me to say that the two ladies are not easy to talk to.
"Oh, I'm going to wipe my butt again," Zhang Geda said helplessly, hugging Mo Zuo's shoulders. "You are both on a boat and on the march, so hurry up and go to the new city. The regiment training has started, and you happen to be checking into the military camp. I'll give it to you
I want you to give me a warrant and go to the camp manager Lao Huang. Otherwise, your logistics and supplies will not be processed."
Seeing Zhang Gedao leading the cavalry into the city with a sad look on his face, Mo Zhui also sighed. Your Majesty did it on purpose and kept wooing Zhang Gedao, making him very uncomfortable.
It was the first time for these pirates to come to the colorful world of the Ming Dynasty, and they couldn't see enough. But all of them were very honest. Because they knew that those who violated military discipline in the Ming Dynasty would be severely punished.
"If we go further, we will enter the master's territory. I really feel homesick." Mo Zhui looked at the barbed wire fence and trench in the distance and murmured. After passing the trench and reaching the trench, he arrived at the master's territory.
Mo Zuo threw half a sugarcane away and stared blankly into the distance, suddenly thinking of his hometown in Shaanxi. There were still many unresolved grievances there and many old friends he had not yet seen.
The mutiny quickly subsided after the money was received. Those who did not want to go outside the customs immediately stopped making trouble. After the Xinghe regiment entered the city, there was a burst of horse clubs. After beating them hard, the rebels abandoned their weapons and knelt down, holding their heads.
surrender.
The Jinyiwei arrested more than a hundred people who committed robberies, set fires, and murdered people. They were all taken to the vegetable market and chopped up. This incident ended.
Wang Yuanya raised 100,000 taels of military expenses from various mine owners and iron factory owners outside the city, and purchased 200,000 quintals of military rations from the Grain Guild. Now the price of miscellaneous grains has increased to 5 yuan per quintal. Although it is cheaper than Xinghe Supermarket
Corn, but that is not available on the market, you need to have a grain book, and you can rely on grain stamps to supply it.
This food is enough to feed the army for a month.
Liu Ce collected almost all the straw from the farmers, which was considered as horse feed. He also prepared an additional 10,000 tons of soybeans, which were considered as non-staple food rations for the war horses. He fed a meal of soybeans at night to ensure that the war horses did not lose weight.
The next day, the Beijing army set out again. From Zunhua City to the north, it exited the customs directly from Da'an Pass.
Da'an Kou Pass, the Great Wall is about 8 meters high. It is under the jurisdiction of Xixiaying Township, bordering Lengzuitou Pass to the east and Catfish Pass to the west. It is said that the name of the pass was based on the "Da'an" in Zhuge Liang's "Ma Qianke" hexagram.
And named.
During the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty, the pass was built to provide access to the outside world. The main pass and each pier were all accessible to cavalry, and there were 174 officers and soldiers stationed there, 2 horses, and 90 weapons.
About 1,000 meters south of the city is a flat land, which is the "teaching ground" of Da'ankou Pass and a place for military training. There are many temples in the ancient city of Da'ankou, the largest of which are the two temples on the top of the east and west mountains in the south of the city, the Jade Emperor Temple and the
The Empress Temple (Wanshou Temple), in addition to the Three Emperors Temple where the village committee is now, the Bodhisattva Temple and the Fire Temple in the south of the city, the Dragon King Temple in the west, and the Zhou Gong Temple in the middle of the north wall of the city.
Da'an Pass is the main road leading to Xinglong and Chengde. The terrain is dangerous. There is a river flowing straight down from north to south. There is a fort on the east bank of the river. To the east of the fort, there is a stone city with a length of 150 meters and a width of 150 meters south of the city wall.
The interior and exterior are made of bricks and lime mortar.
The entire Guancheng is surrounded by mountains and rivers, making it very dangerous.
Chongzhen sat in the car, pursed his lips, and showed a very determined expression. He was not intimidated by the mutiny, and he still insisted on sending troops to find the main force of the slave establishment outside the customs for a decisive battle.
