Ming Dynasty: Tanks blocked the door and you said to me, "Long live Ming Dynasty"

But what did he see now?

If all the soldiers in the White Spear Army were like this, their legs would be almost broken, how could they fight the enemy? !

Qin Yiming didn't dare to look him in the eye, and said with a guilty conscience: "Your Majesty, when I went back to recruit soldiers, there happened to be an earthquake in Fengdu, and many people were affected by the disaster."

"I couldn't bear to see the people suffer, so I took the military funds on my own initiative to comfort the victims."

"I am guilty, and I will punish you, Your Majesty!"

After saying this, he knelt down again and kowtowed three times.

This Fengdu is not that Fengdu, but a small county located dozens of miles west of Shizhu Xuanfusi, which is the Fengdu County of Chongqing City in later generations.

This answer surprised Zhu Youxiao.

However, this approach is in line with the character of Qin Liangyu's family.

"Have all the people been settled?"

"If you use the military funds to comfort the disaster victims, how can you recruit soldiers?"

Qin Yiming felt relieved upon hearing this, and quickly replied: "Your Majesty, most of the soldiers I recruited this time are from Fengdu!"

"They volunteered not to receive military pay but to join the White Rod Army."

"I have come this far with them by borrowing money from merchants in Sichuan and Chongqing."

Zhu Youxiao immediately looked at Sun Kangwang with an angry face.

"Send someone to investigate!"

"There was an earthquake in Fengdu, why didn't I see the memorial?"

"I just raised their monthly salary, and this is how you fool me?"

"Also, go to the Fifth Army Camp and tell General Qin to prepare good wine and food for these brothers of the White Rod Army!"

"Tonight, I will personally welcome them!"

Chapter 231 Inviting the Queen

The arrival of the White Rod Army forced Zhu Youxiao to end the test of the "Daoli" rocket launcher ahead of schedule.

Although it was only fired twice, it has been confirmed that there is no major problem with the design of the rocket. The only flaw is the gun mount and base.

But this problem can be overcome slowly, and the worst case scenario is just to reduce the size of the gun mount from 48 rounds to 10 rounds or less.

This will not affect the concentrated firepower of the rocket launcher. If one is not enough, two can be used. If that doesn't work, ten or eight can be fired together to make up for it.

The Embroidered Uniform Guard was sent to inform Qin Gongming, while Zhu Youxiao and Qin Yiming went to the Fifth Army Camp first.

When they arrived at the Fifth Army Camp, Zhang Weixian and Qin Liangyu had been waiting outside the camp for a long time.

"I will see you, Your Majesty!"

"No gift!"

Zhu Youxiao waved at them, then looked at Qin Liangyu and smiled.

"How is General Qin these days?"

Qin Liangyu smiled back: "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I am still strong and healthy. Even if I fight for the Ming Dynasty for another 20 years, it won't matter!"

The word "chenqie" is not exclusive to the concubines in the emperor's harem. The wives of officials also have to call themselves "chenqie" or "qishen" when meeting the emperor.

Looking at Qin Liangyu's determined gaze, Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but feel deeply moved.

He really wanted to meet Qin Liangyu's father to see what kind of person he was to give birth to such a heroine.

She has done everything from taking care of her husband and children to being loyal to her country!

Her husband, Ma Qiancheng, was framed by eunuchs and died in prison.

Under such circumstances, instead of feeling resentment towards the imperial court, she took over her husband's position and formed a white-flag army to fight for the Ming Dynasty!

His brother Qin Bangping died in the Battle of Hunhe in the first year of Taichang!

His brother Qin Banghan died in the Battle of Hunhe in the first year of Taichang!

His younger brother Qin Minping died in battle while pacifying She'an in the fourth year of Tianqi!

These are things that have already happened.

And there is still something that has not happened yet!

In the sixth year of Chongzhen in history, that is, five years later, his daughter-in-law Zhang Fengyi died in battle in Houjiazhuang, Henan!

In the 15th year of Chongzhen, his son Ma Xianglin died in battle in Xiangyang!

In the second year of Shunzhi, his nephew Qin Gongming died in the Shapu Rebellion!

In the face of such deeds, even the Yang family generals would be far behind!

After all, the deeds of the Yang family generals are mixed with too much artistic processing, but the deeds of Qin Liangyu and her relatives are based on real historical materials!

Although it is understandable that Qin Yiming and Qin Liangyu's grandson eventually surrendered.

After all, the Qin and Ma families have lost so many people for the Ming Dynasty, so they must be allowed to leave a bloodline for themselves...

Otherwise it would be too harsh.

At this moment, Zhu Youxiao suddenly came up with an idea he had never had before.

Very bold idea!

He turned around and looked at Sun Kangwang: "You go to the palace in person and invite the Queen and Concubine Rong!"

As soon as this statement came out, everyone was stunned.

Zhang Weixian couldn't figure out what he was trying to do, so he asked in confusion.

"Your Majesty, this is a military area. It is inconvenient for the ladies to set foot here, right?"

Zhu Youxiao glanced at him and said, "General Qin can be in the army, why can't they come?"

After saying that, he slapped Sun Kangwang on the back of the head.

"What are you still standing there for? Go quickly!"

"Yes Yes Yes!"

Sun Kangwang didn't dare to hesitate and ran out of the camp with his legs kicked up.

Qin Liangyu was also a little confused and couldn't help asking, "Your Majesty, what are you doing..."

Zhu Youxiao smiled mysteriously and said, "General Qin will know later."

Qin Liangyu and Zhang Weixian looked at each other, and could only suppress their doubts in their hearts and wait patiently.

An hour later, Zhang Yan's carriage appeared outside the Fifth Army Camp.

What was different from the past was that today Zhang Yan put on a phoenix coronet and bridal robe, and looked exceptionally dignified in the afterglow of the setting sun.

In fact, she doesn't want to dress like this because this outfit is very tiring!

The phoenix crown alone weighs several kilograms!

But Zhu Youxiao sent someone to ask her to come, but didn't say what the matter was, so she had to come in a solemn manner.

Concubine Rong supported her and walked out of the team.

Upon seeing this, Zhang Weixian and Qin Liangyu hurried forward to pay their respects.

After some polite exchanges, Zhang Yan walked up to Zhu Youxiao and asked, "Your Majesty, why did you summon me and my sister so hastily? Is there anything you want me to do?"

Zhu Youxiao laughed and reached out to hold her hand.

"We'll talk about it later. Stay with me and wait for the White Spear Soldiers."

Qin Gongming and his team did not keep everyone waiting too long. As soon as it got dark, a neat team appeared in everyone's sight.

When Yang Peicong, who was leading the way, saw the people at the gate of the camp, he was startled, jumped off his horse, and took a few quick steps to salute and pay his respects.

"I pay my respects to your Majesty and the Queen!"

Qin Gongming and others behind him were also shocked when they heard this.

They could never have imagined that the emperor would come here in person to greet them!

So, the 20,000 white-flag soldiers, from the front to the back, knelt down one after another like dominoes.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"

The team of 20,000 people was several miles long!

So much so that the people at the back had no idea what was happening and could only follow the people in front.

Not to mention the common people who heard that a large army was entering the capital and rushed to watch the excitement!

Although Zhu Youxiao had been mentally prepared by Qin Yiming's image, he still felt a lump in his throat when he saw these ragged white-pole soldiers in front of him.

These people have suffered so much!

Zhu Youxiao turned his head, rubbed his eyes, and then spoke to Qin Yiming.

"Take them to the parade ground. I will be waiting for them on the reviewing platform!"

After he finished speaking, he took Zhang Yan's hand and walked towards the camp.

Seeing this, Concubine Rong and Zhang Weixian hurriedly followed.

The 50,000 people from the original five military camps had already finished their training and were staying in the barracks, gazing far away through the windows.

"Even His Majesty came to greet them personally. These white-pole soldiers are so majestic."

"Exactly. Look at their heads. None of them are even as tall as my shoulders. Are they really as powerful as the rumors say?"

"Tsk! You don't even have a musket. Even if you are good at fighting with a broken stick, you will die on the battlefield!"

Several soldiers stood by the window, pointing at the white-pole soldiers with jealous looks on their faces.

A short soldier with a childish face nearby couldn't stand it anymore and stood up angrily to retort.

"Bullshit, that's what they deserve. In the Battle of Hunhe, the White Spear Soldiers fought to the last man and never retreated a single step!"

"If you were facing the Jiannu cavalry, would you dare to do this?"

Those who were criticized by him immediately shut their mouths when they heard his words.

But not long after, someone else jumped out.

"Zhang Nianting, right?"

"Look at what you can do. No matter how powerful those white-pole soldiers were, they all died. Can you guarantee that these new soldiers will be as brave as them?"

Chapter 232 If you have the guts, go talk to the Jiannu about morality

Zhang Nianting, the short man who spoke for the White Spear Soldiers, turned red when he heard this.

"damn thing!"

"How dare you insult the White Spear Soldiers!"

"They are all heroes who killed slaves. How can you blaspheme them?"

He roared and swung his fist forward.

That guy was still feeling proud of his words and never thought something like this would happen.

This punch hit him directly on the bridge of his nose.

There was a clicking sound, and his nose tilted to the side. Two streams of bright red blood instantly gushed out of his nostrils.

He let out a scream, covered his nose, and pointed at Zhang Nianting in frustration.

"How dare you hit me!"

"If I don't kill you today, I'll take your last name!"

After saying that, he pointed at several other people present and cursed.

"Are you all blind? What are you still standing there for? Hit me!"

There were two large kangs in this barracks, accommodating fifty people, which was exactly the staffing of a general flag.
