Yesterday was my aunt's birthday. I drank too much and there was no update. My wife sent me an announcement saying that I had "taught you a lesson" today. Tomorrow is my son's second birthday. I have to congratulate him a little. I'll update him in the evening. He will probably be able to recover the day after tomorrow.
In the past few days, more than 10,000 words were updated every day.
…………
The big and small Baylors, the Eight Banners generals, and the Han officials and generals were all excited and returned to the sweat tent happily. Before Huang Taiji could sit down, Twelve Baylor Azig sincerely sighed to the people around him: "If only there had been such a red star earlier.
Yi Cannon, even if there are ten more in Ningyuan City, we can defeat them, so how can we injure Father Khan?"
Hearing this, everyone was sighing. Du Du said with a face of reluctance: "No, if we say that we, Dajin, have had this weapon for a long time, when we besieged Beijing the year before last, Chongzhen's son had already been imprisoned, and our Khan King also
I have already sat on the throne of the Son of Heaven!"[
After all, Jierharang was older and calmer than Azige and Dudu. After listening to the two of them talking for a few words with a smile, he suddenly turned around and said to Tong Yangxing, who was looking at Huang Taiji:
"Sir, although the Hongyi cannon is very powerful, there are only two of them, which is too few. Although our army has more than a dozen cannons taken from the Ming army, we are still far away from attacking the strong cities of the Ming Dynasty.
It’s not enough. I still need to put in more effort and make more red barbarian cannons for us, Daijin.”
Degelei, who was really silent, also said: "Yes, my brother-in-law, I think that although the red barbarian cannon is very powerful, it seems to be too heavy at three thousand kilograms. Can my brother-in-law make something lighter?"
, the range does not have to be ten miles or eighty, but only three to five miles. Anyway, the Ming army dare not go out of the city to fight with our Eight Banners in the field, so they will just go directly to the city to blast them with artillery."
After listening to what the two Beile said, Tong Yangxing turned his head and smiled and said: "What the two Beile said is true. The red barbarian cannon is very powerful, but it is a little heavier, so we are also casting some light cannons. In a month or two
, I guess we can see results.”
Upon hearing that Tong Yangxing was already building a light artillery piece, Jierhalang asked hurriedly: "Sir, how much does this light artillery weigh?"
Tong Yangxing said: "It's about five to six hundred pounds, which is very light."
Jierharang said happily: "My brother-in-law has thought carefully and prepared everything in advance. Well, if it weighs five or six hundred kilograms, it is really much lighter. When marching, it can be pulled by two horses."
Moved."
De Gelei even praised out loud: "My brother-in-law is really my number one hero in Dajin!"
Huang Taiji finally spoke at this time and said to everyone: "The power of the Red Yi Cannon is enough to match the three or five elite soldiers of our Eight Banners. In the future, whether it is sieges or field battles, it will reduce the casualties of our Eight Banners warriors.
His achievements are so great that today I will confer Hongyi Cannon the title of God-Blessed and Mighty General!"
Tong Yangxing hurriedly pulled his nephew Tong Tulai to kneel down and express his thanks: "I thank King Khan for this gift!"
Bao Chengxian, the study official who was standing on the side, took a step forward and said: "King Khan, Ming calls the red-haired Western Barbarians "Red Barbarians", but the word "Yi" is also a name used by the Ming Dynasty for non-Han people. It has a derogatory connotation. I think this is a bit unfair.
Inappropriate. The cannon made by Prince Consort is all covered in red clothes, so why not call it the red cannon?"
"good!"
Huang Taiji gave high fives and praised: "Mr. Bao, what a suggestion! In the past, I felt something was wrong when I heard the word 'Hongyi'. After hearing the reminder from my husband, I realized that this was the Ming Dynasty's intention to disparage me."
Khan will change the red barbarians to red clothes today. From now on, no one in our country, Dajin, can call the God-blessed and mighty general 'red barbarians' anymore, to show that our country, Dajin, is authentic and can never be compared to barbarians!"
After saying that, Huang Taiji looked sideways at Mang Gurtai and asked him with a smile: "Third brother, do you think that my consort has made such a great contribution this time, how should we reward him?"
Mang Gurtai still values the Tong family. He had a good friendship with Tong Yangxing's brother Tong Yangzhen back then. Unfortunately, Tong Yangzhen was captured by Mao Wenlong and sent to Beijing to be killed. Out of friendship, Mang Gurtai would not object to awarding Tong Yangxing a reward.
, I was also happy that the Hongyi cannon was made, and said: "The prince-in-law has great merits, and we have clear rewards and punishments. If you have merit, you will be rewarded. How to reward the prince-son, the king of Khan has the final say."
Hearing this, Huang Taiji smiled slightly, nodded, and slowly scanned the crowd. Finally, his eyes fell on Tong Yangxing's face, and he said unhurriedly: "My consort and his family are my benefactors to the Ai Xinjueluo family. I have something to say first.
The Tong family is my great treasure, so I call my husband-in-law Tong Banchao, but Tong Banchao is a false name. I will make my husband-in-law Tong Banchao be worthy of the name today!"
The real Tong Banchao?
As soon as these words came out, all the generals and senior officers in the tent were stunned. They looked at Huang Taiji in confusion. They all thought to themselves: Could it be that King Khan wants to share the kingdom of Jin with his consort in the west room?
Mang Gurtai was even more stunned. Although Huang Taiji was the king of Khan, he set a rule when he succeeded to the throne. He, the king of Khan, must co-govern Dajin with the other three big beile. Although Amin was imprisoned,
He and Dai Shan are still there. Now Huang Taiji is saying that he wants to make the prince-in-law in the west room the real Tong Banchao. Shouldn't half of the country be divided with him? [
How does this happen? Although the Tong family has contributed to Daikin, they are still slaves of the Han people. How can they share the power with their Aixinjueluo family? It is ridiculous! What the hell is the fourth child doing?! I borrowed a Zhenglan flag from me earlier.
Thousands of red armors show off their teeth, ten cows are recorded, and now they have to divide the world for Tong to nourish his nature. What kind of medicine is he selling in this gourd?
Mang Gurtai was confused and confused, but Tong Yangxing was filled with fear. As soon as King Khan said Tong Banchao's words, his head hit the ground. His nephew Tong Tulai on the side did not react. He was startled for a moment before he woke up.
The uncle and nephew said nothing, but their foreheads were covered with sweat.
In the confused eyes of everyone and the frightened eyes of uncles and nephews of the Tong family, Huang Taiji laughed. After the laughter, he raised his voice and said: "I, Dajin, have raised troops since the Thirteen Armors of the First Khan. It is very difficult to start a business. My father, Lai Khan, is very powerful.
The soldiers put their lives to good use, and this is what we have today. Looking at our country, the Jin Kingdom, it covers thousands of miles, has hundreds of thousands of soldiers, and has a population of millions." After a pause, he continued: "Earlier, I asked people to count the population of each banner.
, excluding the Han people who took the initiative to surrender and have already integrated into the banner people, the number of newly surrendered Han people is no less than 300,000, of which the Ming army surrendered nearly 60,000, which is already half of the foundation of our Jin Kingdom. I care about the people of the world.
, treating all ethnic groups as one family, so in order to prevent the bannermen from bullying the Han people, I decided to separate all the Han people from each banner who were not included in the banner, and set up the Han Army Banner, and the emperor's son-in-law would be in charge of the Han military flag and Han affairs. In this way, the emperor's son-in-law in the west room
It is Tong Banchao who lives up to the name of our Kingdom of Jin, but I don’t know what you think?” After he finished speaking, his eyes fell on Mang Gurtai.
Establish a Han military banner? Form a separate army of Han people who have not joined each banner and give it to Tong Yangxing to control?
Mang Gurtai pondered for a moment, feeling that the establishment of the Han Army Banner would not harm his own interests of Zhenglan Banner, and that Tong Yangxing was on good terms with him, so he was happy to see the success and nodded: "I have no objection to the establishment of the Han Army Banner."
"My brother and I have no objections."
Mang Gurtai did not object, and Jierhalang and Azige would not object. Anyway, the establishment of the Han military banner would not harm the interests of the banner, so why bother to be a bad person and make the Khan King unhappy.
Among all the Baylors, only Dege Lei had a vague feeling that King Khan had some agenda in setting up the Han army flag, but for the moment it was not clear what the purpose was.
The Baylors had no objections, so Huang Taiji naturally did not ask the generals of each banner, and waved his hand and announced: "In June of the fifth year of Tiancong, Angbang Zhangjing, Tong Yangxing, the concubine in the west room, supervised the construction of the red cannon and made great achievements. I am grateful.
In his early years, he dispersed all his family members to help us build the country and made great contributions. Therefore, I am specially appointed as the chief military officer of the Han Army Banner, and the prime minister of all matters related to the Han Army Flag and the Han people. I hope that I will be diligent and avoid political affairs, so that I will not be disappointed."
Tong Yangxing's uneasy heart had already dropped, and he kowtowed a little excitedly, choking and saying: "King Khan has entrusted me with such an important responsibility...I am terrified, lest my ability is limited and I will live up to King Khan's trust!"
"My brother-in-law, there is no need to be self-effacing. I know what you are capable of and I will go ahead and do it."
Huang Taiji smiled and said kind words to Tong, and suddenly turned to ask Ning Wanwo who was standing by the side: "Our Dajin Eight Banners each have their own colors to show distinction and facilitate the command of the battle formation. Now the Han military flag should be established like the Eight Banners."
Each has its own distinct color, but I don’t know what color you think the Han military flag should be based on?”
After Ning Wan, I thought about it for a while and then answered: "Since the Qin Dynasty, the Han people have advocated black. The Qin people called the people the head of Guizhou, and the people all wrapped their heads in black cloth. The black in Guizhou is also the black color among the five elements.
Fire and water restrain fire, which corresponds to the five elements restraining each other. Therefore, I think it is appropriate for the Han military flag to be black."
Hearing this, Huang Taiji sighed and praised: "Sir, I have learned a lesson from your lecture. Well, good, as you said, this Han military flag is black as its original color, and the pattern on the flag is the same as the Eight Banners."
Tong Yangxing hurriedly said: "I thank King Khan for the color of the flag!"
Huang Taiji was also in a good mood and said with a smile: "Today is really a series of happy events. First, the God-blessed General Shenwei was born, and then the Han Army Banner was established. This Khan is overjoyed!"
Before the lingering sound dissipated, the heroic hand was already waving towards the south: "God has given me a great golden weapon. If I don't tell you, how long will it take?"
