Become the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, Chongzhen!

Chapter 253 Gold Rush

But right now, we can only plan first.

It will take some time before we actually start doing something.

So Zhu Youjian is ready to meet a large number of ronin.

If the ronin at this time is really so miserable that he needs to prove his determination by caesarean section in order to get a job as a diner.

Then they have no reason not to choose a more dignified and promising job.

However, the 40 samurai were reduced to ronin, and the obedience of the ronin warriors did not set off a large-scale rebellion. It is worth asking Zhu Youjian to set aside a piece of land in the outer city of Shengjing for them.

This also helps them form a living circle in which they adapt, which can attract more 'immigrants' over.

"It's a pity that the journey is here. After all, it is a long-term job."

Because they were the first batch to arrive, Zhu Youjian gave this group of warriors the treatment of voluntarily surrendering during the war. Those who wore armor were directly granted the status of Bannermen, and those who did not wear armor were also Banner Reserves. After two months of wartime service, they can become regulars.

There is nothing special about the remuneration, just pay what you want, just give a few words of encouragement and then pay as usual.

Just be prepared to hurry up.

Zhu Youjian felt that a big battle was not far away.

After sending away the few black-flag warriors who were overwhelmed with gratitude, Hao Ya quickly sent the information about the Tongguan battle from Gaizhou.

While flipping through the pages, Zhu Youjian couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded.

"This is indeed a good idea."

Li Zicheng's personal expedition took less than a hundred miles. After stationing the camp in Weinan County, a large number of soldiers from the old battalion under his command went to the Tongguan battlefield.

Zhu Youjian's expected Manchu armored elm cannon commando was used by Li Zicheng's old battalion instead!

After relying on the shield car to approach, the elm cannon became a shoulder-resistant single-shot hand cannon. Suddenly, it came out from behind the shield car and blasted out. Head out from behind the shield car.

Two days after the Shun army advanced and stormed Tongguan, the Qing army was finally forced out of Tongguan. Azig gritted his teeth looking at the elm cannons in the Shun army's old battalion!

Unexpectedly, I can still meet this familiar thing when I go south!
The opposite side is even more ghostly than those savages!

Fortunately, the city wall of Tongguan has been crumbled. It is not that there is no elm cannon in his army.
Before Tongguan turned into a street battle with guns, oh no, it should be the case of guns, because the Ming army has officially approached Xi'an City, and the picture is obvious, so Li Zicheng directly invited the Ming army to join him in attacking the Qing Dynasty. military.

And as long as he retreats first and sends a unit to Henan to show his sincerity, he will send back Prince Daming and Princess Kunxing directly.

Seeing this, Zhu Youjian's face froze.

At that time, he entrusted several eunuchs to send his three sons out of the city, but after the city was broken, the eunuchs sent the eldest and third son to Li Zicheng.

And the time is just right.

It was the day when he hung the white silk and mutated.

There was originally a fourth child, who probably listened to what he told them when they were sent away, parted ways with the eunuch and disguised himself and managed to escape, but neither Zhu Youjian's memory nor the current Longwu court had any confidence.

The Longwu court has already given him a posthumous posthumous title.
"Sure enough, it has become a bargaining chip, and it is still a bargaining chip that has always been valuable."

Li Zicheng used this bargaining chip to delay the Ming army for a day.

That is the day.

Dashun Guangshan Bo Liu Tichun led his army down the Han River by boat, and raided a grain and grass transit point of the Ming army north of Xiangyang, and also controlled the grain road route from Hankou!
The morale of the Ming army was frustrated, and the long-prepared offensive immediately languished. When Zheng Chenggong was furious, Li Zicheng sent a batch of food and fodder. Although it was small, it hit the soul directly.

"This is Li Zicheng?"

After Zhu Youjian saw that the Ming army had moved about a hundred miles to Henan, he couldn't help but let out a low voice.

A set of chains, the crown prince of Ming Dynasty was not handed over, but Li Zicheng used its effect to the extreme.

Shaking his head and putting down the folder that had already seen the head, Zhu Youjian held his forehead in silence for a moment and then returned to working status.

"Guangshi, take the newly arrived Ming blunderbuss and change the paintwork. The three major battalions of Feilei Cannon are divided into five divisions each, and the rest are assigned to three divisions of the Jinyang Military Division, and two divisions are assigned to the Mongolian Cavalry Division.

All the carron cannons were loaded onto the treasure ship, and the Long Xiao guns were still kept in storage at ordinary times, but the training could not be stopped. The firearms battalion and the black banner were still held once a month. In addition, the officers of the three major battalions of Niulu and above were sent out as guards during battles. For personal use. "

As he spoke, Zhu Youjian glanced at the large map of Liaodong and Shuntian hanging behind him.

"There is no news from Sakhalin Island from Black Flag City?"

"Your Majesty, there is still only news of contacting the leaders of the local clans after landing on the island."

"Tell me as soon as you have a letter, by the way, how is the investigation going?"

After Zhu Youjian beckoned to Jiao Boqing to come closer, Jiao Boqing immediately understood, and directly fished out a small square wrapped in white paper from his clothes.

"Yo, is this already produced?"

"Your Majesty, all the minefields have been detected and sealed off. This is the gold sand that was extracted from a trial. Please inspect it, Your Majesty."

The white paper was spread out, and on it was a pinch of more and more gold sand, which made Zhu Youjian very satisfied.

"Let the sticky stick prepare to speak in Daming. It's best to act it out again, so that the people of Daming can also know the good news. In addition"

The land of Liaodong is vast and full of plains, and later generations are mostly famous for its fertile black soil, but in fact the treasures in this land are far more than that.

Jilin Jiapigou Gold Mine and Heihe Gold Mine are among the best high-quality gold producing areas in the entire Chinese land.

And both have one thing in common.

That is, they have all been exploited by foreign enemies.

And after regaining it, it still sits firmly in the first or second place of gold production for a long time.

The most outrageous thing is that Lao Aijia, who started his family here, didn't know about this thing at first.

In the original history, after entering the customs, the wicker borders began to be repaired, and Liaodong was emptied directly. It was not until the Tongzhi period that there was a large gold mine here.

Of course, this is directly related to the limited gold mining technology and the sparse population in Liaodong.

Now Zhu Youjian knows that violent mining when the mining facilities are unreliable is pure waste, and it is no different from predatory mining.

Right now, we can only collect the sand on the surface, and barely support the aggressive Zhenghei Banner.

Besides.

It is to take advantage of human beings' enthusiasm for gold that seems to be in DNA.

Zhu Youjian only cares about the difficulty of mining. In the eyes of people these days, as long as they can see golden colors in a pot of sand, it is enough to make them so ecstatic that they can't breathe.

And Zhu Youjian also sincerely welcomes people of any race to come to help Zhengheiqi mine these golds. After Zhu Youjian solves the problem of mining facilities and equipment, Zhengheiqi will be able to rely on this large gold mine field. There is no need to worry about military expenditures.

A project that drives population growth, and also makes the economy take off, and also speeds up the development of the Liaodong area along the way.

perfect.

"Waguo also releases a little news. I think it will help absorb those ronin warriors, but North Korea needs to be on guard."
