1635 Han style rises again

Chapter 576
Princess Zhu Yu of Daming Kunxing looked at Ziying who was kneeling on the ground in astonishment. She never thought that this personal maid who had been with her for eight years would have an affair with someone. Now, she came to beg to let her go. People, it is good to achieve a century-old marriage with your lover.

"Ziying, if you can tell me about this matter half a year earlier, maybe I can persuade His Majesty to let you go to the common people and let you marry someone else." Auntie Zhu stretched out her hand and gently helped Ziying up, There was a helpless expression on his face, "Your Majesty has promised me to King Qi, thinking that Ming Qi is married, and as a maid, you will naturally be sent to Hanzhou with me, and become one of the many women in Queen Qi's harem."

Hearing this, Ziying's face paled immediately, and her tears couldn't stop streaming down. In the troubled times, it was so easy to meet a beloved one. Just because of the princess's marriage, she was forced to go to Hanzhou with her, and became the woman of King Qi. Yue Lang was separated at this point, what an unfair fate!
"As women, how can we have our own choice?" Auntie Zhu sighed softly, then walked to the window and stared out.There is still a word in her heart that she has not said, as a daughter of the emperor's family, she has no right to choose.Going to Hanzhou, thousands of miles away, I am afraid it will be difficult to return to the homeland of China in this life.

However, the only thing that made her more gratified was that King Qi had also studied and entered school, so he should be quite polite. In addition, he was in his twenties, so maybe in the future, he could have some words with him.

Yue Zhongwu, who was loved by Ziying, was leading two platoons of marines to cooperate with the officers and soldiers of Denglai Town to clear the Mihe River and clear the wilderness in order to deal with Jiannu's large-scale revenge.

Because Shouguang County is close to Denglai, the Qing army did not deploy too many soldiers and horses, and there were only two or three hundred Han troops in the small county, which only served as a warning.After seeing the officers and soldiers of Denglai Town crossing the Mi River from a distance and dragging their artillery to the edge of the county seat, they simply left the city and turned around to flee to Linzi County behind.

The officers and soldiers of Denglai Town obviously didn't want to let go of the two or three hundred Jiannu Han troops, and a group of more than a hundred cavalrymen immediately chased after them.Over the past few years, with the support of the Qi army, Denglai Town has repeatedly broken Jiannu. Moreover, half a month ago, it raided Liaodong again, broke through the former capital of Jiannu, plundered supplies, and shipped more than a hundred large and small ships. Only two round trips by boat can be transported back.Therefore, when Denglai Town faced the Jiannu army, it was not as fearful as a tiger like the Jiangnan Ming army, and it did not have the situation of being defeated by the Shun army and the Western army. Instead, it had a small psychological advantage.Jiannu is fierce, but only mediocre.

"Brother Yue, if I want to join your Qi army, will you accept me?" Pan Xuezhong stood at the head of the city in Shouguang County, watching the officers and soldiers of the Ming army organize the evacuation of the people in the city, and a continuous stream of horse-drawn carriages came from the city gate. After passing by, along the official road, all the way east, and finally evacuated to Laizhou.

"What's the matter, the commander-in-chief of the Ming Dynasty army doesn't want to be an ordinary soldier in Qi?" Yue Zhongwu asked with a smile.

"I heard that your Qi army has never been defeated since it became an army." Pan Xuezhong said: "You Qi defeated the natives and defeated the barbarians. When you arrived in Daming, you repeatedly beat Jiannu to shame. It can be said to be powerful. Besides, whether you are officers or soldiers, you are paid so generously! As a platoon leader, you are the official position of the general banner of our army. What kind of wartime subsidies and overseas subsidies are added to the military salary? Boss Qian's treatment is even better."

"Old Pan, you want to join our Qi army because you want us to pay you generously!" Yue Zhongwu patted Pan Xuezhong on the shoulder, "But our army has more rules, and the training is more frequent and difficult than your Ming army. Mo We only need to look at our previous achievements and generous pay. In our army, there is such a saying, more sweat on weekdays, less bloodshed in wartime. Our Marine Corps will only stop daily training when we go out to perform military duties."

"This, I know." Pan Xuezhong looked at Yue Zhongwu enviously, "On Changshan Island, when our Denglai Town officers and soldiers were playing and restless, we also saw you practicing three times a day, ten days a day. However, I I think this is what a soldier looks like, and this is the real army that can win battles. I applied for a soldier in Liaodong a few years ago because I was hungry in Shandong. As a result, I almost never fought in Liaodong. Victory. One defeat after another, and later, he was appointed as the general manager of Shicheng Island, and he was lucky, and finally he no longer had to face Jiannu's hacking and killing."

"If it hadn't been discovered by your ships of Qi State a few years ago and took us all to Denglai, maybe we have been huddled on Shicheng Island to avoid the sharp edge of Jiannu. Of course, it is also possible that in a certain place A few days ago, Jiannu attacked the island by boat and chopped us all up one by one. Last year, you said that you were going to raid Liaodong, and you needed a person familiar with the terrain of Liaodong to lead the way. Take you to Liaodong to investigate the situation."

"However, seeing your indifferent expressions and contemptuous eyes, I decided to take your people to Liaodong to die. ... When I really went to Liaodong, I saw that you cooperated tacitly. You are very skillful, and the repeated sneak attack to capture Jiannu Dingkou is really an eye-opener. I follow you to go deep into Liaodong for several times, and as far as Shenyang, I think it is the most heroic thing I have done in my life, enough for me to brag about it for the rest of my life. "

"Half a month ago, we raided Liaodong and broke through Haizhou, Anshan, Liaoyang, Shenyang and other stronghold cities where slaves were built, which made our Ming Dynasty officials and soldiers feel proud. I think that the days of avoiding wars in the past are really special. What a coward. Killing Jiannu so wantonly, slaughtering Jiannu stronghold cities, this is what I, a Ming man, should do."

"So, you want to follow our Qi army and win battles all the time?" Yue Zhongwu restrained his laughing expression.

"I used to be a banker, but I have been a soldier for more than ten years, and I have long since known how to farm." Pan Xuezhong said with a wry smile: "For the present plan, the only way to continue to be a soldier is to continue to receive salary Days. But I have been in the Ming army for many years, and I know some of our details. Regardless of the past few years, Denglai Town has repelled several Jiannu attacks, but if it were not for your Qi army at the critical moment Support, we have long been massacred by Jiannu just like other places in Ming Dynasty."

"Our officers and soldiers in Denglai Town said that your Qi army is good at fighting, but you rely on artillery and muskets. But I have more contact with you, but I know that your army is not only relying on the superiority of firearms to defeat Jian several times. Slave. I think that even with your bayonet assault alone, you can easily defeat our Denglei officers and soldiers. Your training, your discipline, your level of combat skills, and your determination to fight are the best I have ever encountered. to be the strongest in the army."

"I thought, since you want to make a living in the army, you should choose the strongest army. In this way, don't you have a little more chance of saving your life?" Pan Xuezhong said with a smile: "And, I think, you guys The Qi army will not stay in Daming forever, maybe at some point, you will all leave. At that time, I think, if you continue to stay in Denglai Town, you might be beheaded by Jiannu."

"Save your own life." Yue Zhongwu said solemnly: "If you want to join our Qi State Marine Corps, you must first immigrate to our Hanzhou and become a citizen of Qi State before you have a chance to become a member of the army. However, here you come We Hanzhou, even if you can't join the marines, you can still live a stable and happy life."

Since October, the Yongchu imperial court took advantage of the fact that the army of building slaves had not gathered in Shandong, and several groups of troops marched forward. With the cooperation of the Qi State Marine Corps and many township soldiers, they seized more than ten Qing Dynasty sites such as Shouguang, Linqu, Yishui, Yinan, and Linyi. In the frontier of the army, in addition to relocating all personnel and materials to the rear of Denglai, hundreds of thousands of people were also organized to harvest local crops frantically, and even some immature grains were all taken back.

The Qing army stationed in various prefectures and counties in Shandong kept receiving news of the attack on Liaodong. From disdain at the beginning, they gradually became suspicious, and then various rumors from Denglai continued to mention several important towns in Liaodong intermittently. It was breached by the Ming army, and even Shengjing was raided. Many nobles in the city and countless women and children left behind by the Eight Banners were slaughtered by the Ming army.

Despite the forceful suppression of officers and soldiers stationed in the Eight Banners, many Han troops did not dare to publicly discuss the attack on Liaodong, but there were constant whispers in private.Isn't my Qing Dynasty going to sweep the world?The enemies they encountered were all crushed and smashed, and one after another major victories continued to be heard from all over the place. It seemed that the unification of the mainland of China was not far away.

But, why at this time, the back road of my Qing Dynasty, the former capital, was actually breached by the Qi State United Denglaiming Army!In this way, will there be a slight change in the trend of my Qing Dynasty's unification of the world, and can the Ming Dynasty obtain a glimmer of opportunity?
Han Dai, the coach of the Qing army stationed in Shandong, had already heard the news from Beijing about the attack on Liaodong. Apart from being shocked, he was even more hesitant.He knew that Liaodong was empty, but like all the generals of the Eight Banners, he never thought that the Ming army would cross the sea to raid Liaodong, thinking it was unimaginable.

Although Qi State, a vassal of the Ming Dynasty, used the advantage of boats to raid Liaodong twice, but those were just a few strongholds along the coast.My Qing Dynasty moved personnel and materials into the inland. Don't you dare to abandon the boat and land, go deep into the inland, and attack our strong cities and important ports?
However, what I didn't expect was that they really dared to invade the hinterland of Liaodong, and even broke Shengjing!

The king regent was furious, and he had sent a decree to order Shandong to prepare a large army of food and grass. After the troops from the south of the Yangtze River and the Huaihe River were assembled, they would use thunderous force to completely wipe out the Yongchu small court in Denglai.

However, Han Dai had not yet started to search for materials from various prefectures and counties in Shandong. The Yongchu small imperial court in Denglai actually took the lead. Many armies invaded the area controlled by the Qing army. Hundreds of thousands of people harvested grain from all over the country.

They are going to prepare in advance to fortify the wall and clear the field!
