Become the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, Chongzhen!

Chapter 464 Unity is Strength?

The black, red, black and blue flags mobilized a total of [-] troops for the Northern Expedition, of which [-] were from the black and red flags, and most of the rest came from the black and blue flags.

There is half a battalion of take-out firearms battalions, with a total strength of nearly [-] troops.

But along the way, the Black and Blue Banner and the Firearms Battalion left some troops in the rear. Even counting the Mongolian civilians recruited along the way, the army was only [-].

Although the armored men of the logistics auxiliary soldiers can also be regarded as the main combat soldiers, but in front of the [-] troops of Khalkha Mongols that the spies said, and the coalition forces that may increase in the future, they are inevitably short in number.

But with confidence, there are plenty of black flags.

Hearing the strength of the troops, except for the former black and red flag general who was a little apprehensive, the rest of the generals did not respond.

"Has our envoy returned? Is there anything wrong?"

Knowing the power of the black flag firearms, Aimee Zhu felt very at ease.

"If you go back to the master, the emissary team is on the way back, and it will meet my army in about three days."

"That's good."

Zhu Cijiong on Heiqi's side was a little nervous when he heard the [-] army, but showing cowardice was impossible, so he had to control it no matter what.

But Khalkha Mongolia side.

The princes and princes of the Chechen Khan tribe and the Tushetu Khan tribe discussed matters.

The tent was very noisy, and the two sweaters remained silent for a while.

During the conversation, most of the people with good faces on both sides did not know much about Black Flag.

But anyone who understands the national situation of Black Flag this year, the smile on his face is somewhat false.

Especially Chechen Khan and Tushetu Khan, the two rulers.

One side is adjacent to the black flag, and the tribe has had constant business contacts with the black flag in the past few months.

While holding the religious core of the Outer Mongolian Grassland, he has close contacts with Buddhism in Outer Mongolia and Guanzhong. The fighting power shown by the Black Banner and the Eight Banners before the invasion also surprised the Tuxietu Khan tribe, so he has been in the past few months. Search for intel on Black Flag.

Now Tuxie Tuhan Gonpo is holding a short matchlock gun produced by the black flag.

The internal control of firearms in the black flag gradually loosened as Wude began to loosen. Heavy-duty arquebus guns must not be sold in the market, but light arquebus guns such as bird guns and relatively light short guns that are not as stealthy as pistols are official. factories are manufacturing.

After all, on the vast land of Liaodong, the development of Black Flag is still a struggle against nature. The settlements outside the city need firearms to fight against wild beasts, and the farms need firearms to fight against wild boars that harm crops, wolves that carry livestock, etc. .

Therefore, guns are banned inside the city, but not outside the city.

And this exquisite matchlock blunderbuss with traces of industrial mass production, in the eyes of Tuxie Tuhan, naturally represented the strength and martial arts of the black flag.

Chechen Khan was even more shocked.

He had heard about railways.

I didn't believe it at first.

What the hell is spreading the best refined iron on the ground?
But after the merchant's ears were cut off, and several of his slaves had their eyes cut off, they shouted that they were indeed lying.

Chechen Khan was finally sure that what they said was true.

Now the two are sitting on chairs covered with snow-white cowhide, and their gazes are full of meaning and complicated when they look at each other.

At this time, someone from outside was about to come in, making the big tent a little quieter.

"Great Khan, those who escaped from the tribes that were raided by the Black Banner Army of the Qing Dynasty have all asked about it. They didn't see those White Savage Cossacks in the Black Banner Army."

"They were just trying to escape, and what they said was not credible."

"We have to catch a black-flag savage and torture him, so we can know whether the black-flag savage of the Qing Dynasty has colluded with the Raksha Cossacks in the north."

"There must have been, not only when the peace was negotiated! The faces of the Cossacks who were in the savage army before were clearly seen by the fugitives of the Sunit tribe! There are many Cossacks among the black flag savages! "

Just after a moment of silence, there was another noise in the tent.

"Silence! The Khan wants to speak!"

Gonpo and Chechen Khan Shuolei signaled their subordinates to reprimand, then Gonpo looked at Shuolei and said, "Before winter, you didn't know anything about the white barbarians in the north. During winter, your tribe did a lot of business with the barbarians. You It should be to know whether the wildlings have colluded with the Cossacks."

Shuo Lei's eyes twitched, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Isn't your tribe also doing business with savages? But the servants under my tribe did see many Cossacks in Liaodong occupied by savages, and they only know that they have taken refuge in the black flag, Ben Khan I don’t know if the Cossacks will attack us from the rear with the savages in this battle.”

"Beware."

Not intending to collapse the alliance in advance, Tushetuhan sighed and said: "I hope you will stop making deals with the white barbarians. The more deals you make, the more they will understand the grassland, and the more dangerous we will be."

Chechen Khan took a deep breath: "For your sake, I will let the servants below stop."

The difficult situation has made Khalkha Mongolia more united.

Especially in early spring when it is still bitingly cold.

So even though the two khans were extremely afraid of the black flag, their coalition forces still marched southward in an orderly manner to prevent the black flag from invading the Khalkha Mongolian tribes.

While the coalition forces and the main forces of the black, red, black and blue flags rushed in both directions.

Zhu Youjian also received the delayed battle report.

Satisfied with the establishment of the two stronghold cities, he quickly started to determine the business route, and the development of the surrounding cities was also put on the agenda. At the same time, he also began to select the officials who would govern these cities in the future.

At this time, the first battle report from the Black Flag Navy arrived in the capital.

"Since the Zong family has surrendered, let's be incorporated into the Black and Blue Banner, retain the ownership of the castle it owns, and temporarily grant the post of Niu Lu, but order him to assist my Black Banner in the affairs of the Wa Kingdom and govern the residents of Tsushima Island. .”

The leading party is indispensable.

If the Zong family shows some value in the future, then Zhu Youjian can also forget their ethnic identity just like he did with Aikawa Kazuki.

What Zhu Youjian didn't expect was that the official position here was still on paper.

On the other side, Zong Yicheng and his eldest son Zong Yizhen have become Lin Wang's temporary advisers.

On the surface of the sea, nearly 200 large and small warships of the Black Banner Navy lie across the sea. On the opposite side are nearly [-] warships that are weaker in size and configuration, but are better than the large number of Japanese warships.

After all, Tsushima Island is an external port. When the Black Banner Navy arrived, many merchant ships and small boats ran away. It is normal for Japan to react.

The Iki clan was raided before, because the attackers were all Japanese, so the Japanese country is still not sure whether it is the black flag or a group of particularly powerful ronin warriors.

But this time, the feudal vassals under the Hizen vassal got the exact news.

After the news of the black flag's invasion was transmitted to Edo, the Hizen domain quickly responded and gathered a fleet to protect the sea area, so as not to be caught on the island by the black flag.

Perhaps it was due to the development of foreign sea trade, the large number of foreign ships, and the richer Hizen clan's vassals gathered too many warships, which made the samurai very inflated.

Shouting that the Jurchens are the same as the Mongols!

Let's remake the classic!
