Reborn Regent of Ming Dynasty

Fushan's cannons are field cannons, not the kind of artillery used by the Ming army in Liaodong, which weighed five or six thousand kilograms and was very bulky and immobile. They can really hit three miles away easily, but they can't be accurate. There is no guarantee, it all depends on luck.

"General Guohua, how long does it take for the Tartars to manufacture siege equipment?" Zhang Bingwen asked softly as he climbed the top of the city.

"Three or four days, from cutting wood to making shield carts, ladder carts, and rush carts, no matter how many craftsmen are handy, they can't do it in a few days."

Zhang Shouren still felt a faint uneasiness in his heart... But it was definitely not because of the actions of the Qing army in front of him.

Although the Qing army on the opposite side had a large number of troops and began to prepare siege equipment, in any case, it should not be the source of his uneasiness. [

After answering a few words with Zhang Bingwen, Zhang Shouren broke free from the anxiety of the unknown.

Although he smelled a conspiracy, after making a simple judgment, the uneasiness in his heart gradually weakened.

Although there were thousands of troops in front of him, Zhang Shouren was more certain. Although his judgment was not very accurate, his confidence should not be wrong.

All kinds of signs are very clear, the opponent is playing tricks, and it should be something other than the battlefield in front of him.

Even if they broke their teeth, they couldn't break into this strong city.

As the commander of an army, he cannot realize this, and it is absolutely impossible.

"Hey, I want to know, do they want to go south to Yanzhou, or east to Denglai?"

The Qing army in front of us is definitely not the main force!

……

……

"Marshal, the court's messenger has arrived. The governor of the military gate asked the marshal to meet and talk immediately."

In Dezhou City, the original government office was occupied by the governor, and the county government office and government school were divided up by Qiu Lei and Ni Chong respectively.

This city is the main road connecting Hebei and Shandong. Even after a few hundred years, there are several high-speed lines between Beijing and various places in the south, which go to various places in the south via Dezhou.

At this time, Texas is a huge barracks.

The governor's battalion, the two commander-in-chief's battalions, the heads of the battalions directly led by the lieutenants and generals, the strong and brave people in the city, there are more than [-] people in total, the whole Shandong, the elite of the Lu army, has gathered in this city middle.

When there are many soldiers, there are many disturbances. Although the governor is in the city, Qiu Lei has always been domineering. Although Ni Chong is a civilian commander, he is not a good bird. Basically, they are all the same stuff, all of them are incompetent and useless cowards who have lost both military discipline and combat effectiveness.

Coupled with the unrepaired equipment, rusty gun heads, rusty knives that can't chop chicken heads, and tattered military uniforms, the so-called Great Ming Master is nothing but a large-scale mobile group of beggars and refugees.

People in Shandong are used to it. The finance of the Ming Dynasty declared a failure after the benevolence announcement. The next hundred years were nothing more than lingering. Inland military towns like the Lu Army rely on themselves to support themselves. There is no strength in the local finances. It is not bad to be able to maintain such an armed force.

Bad military discipline, poor armament, and disorganized military appearance, these soldiers of the Lu army are a good explanation of what is called a good man and not a soldier. [

However, among the beggars, there are also elders of the Nine Bags. This beggar army... No, there are also battalion heads who have been equipped in the Lu army army, and the military uniforms are a little bit better—that is, the commander-in-chief's relatives and servants .

At this time, Qiu Lei was stationed in the Jie County Yamen, just like all the Yamen at that time. There was a small square outside the gate, followed by Shenming Pavilion and Jingshan Pavilion. As far as the eye can see, they are full of the soldiers and servants of Marshal Qiu in padded armor and helmet.
