The end of the Ming Dynasty swept the world

Chapter 792 The Teacher of Justice
Guang Shiheng quickly realized that he seemed to have been touched by someone. He lowered his head and touched it, his face changed drastically: "My purse."

Being an envoy is lucrative, and yesterday Li Weiyou rewarded the three of them with some gifts and taels of silver.

Liu Zongzhou didn't take it, but Guang Shiheng and Zhou Zhong did. When Guang Shiheng came, he brought a big money bag, which was already prepared.

Unexpectedly, he was suddenly touched in the street. He was shocked and hurried to catch up.

Liu and Zhou could only accompany and catch up.

The two of them ran so fast that they soon saw Guang Shiheng chasing far ahead.

After turning a corner, there was no one in sight.

When they found him, Guang Shiheng was stabbed to the ground, bleeding profusely.

This "loyal minister" of Ming Dynasty who told Chongzhen not to run away and was the first to surrender, finally died in a foreign country.

Guang Shiheng was killed by thieves, Liu Zongzhou and Zhou Zhong were furious, and they raged against the court to put pressure on the murderer.

But in a short time, the murderer could not be found there, and there are no cameras in this era.

Zheng Bing randomly found a criminal to replace him and beheaded him.

But the Ming envoy was killed in Thang Long, which is also a major event.

During this period, Liu Zongzhou made harsh remarks many times, accusing them, saying that they are barbaric and unrepentant, and they need to learn more about benevolence and righteousness, and appreciate the great Ming benevolence and righteousness.

It is also necessary for Shenglong to send envoys to the capital to apologize to Daming and explain the situation.

Because Liu Zongzhou also panicked, he brought two people out, and one died when he went back, how to explain to Ding Yi.

Zheng Yan swallowed his anger and was willing to pay a large amount of money, but Liu Zongzhou, relying on his innocence, naturally refused to accept it.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Zhong accepted it in private.

When the court met again, Zheng Bing pointed out that Liu Zongzhou was so angry and angry that he almost vomited blood.

At this point, the two parties had already parted ways, and it was useless to say anything.

Liu Zongzhou is a stubborn person. Zhou Zhong collected money in private, which made him feel ashamed of Daming, and angrily scolded Zheng Bing and Zhou Zhong in public.

This time Zheng Bing also had to lose face, he was also the lord of a country after all, so he was finally angered.

He ordered Liu Zongzhou to be thrown out directly.

Liu Zongzhou was furious when he heard the words, and cursed on the spot, saying that he was a barbarian barbarian and dared to fight against the Ming Shangbang?How rude.

There was a military general in the palace who couldn't stand it, and when he went up, he was a big mouther.

This mission was a complete failure.

Zheng Bing refused to accept the imperial decree of the Ming Dynasty, and blasted Liu Zongzhou and Zhou Zhong out of Shenglong.

At that time, many generals shouted to kill them, but it was still Zheng Yi who refused.

But without the support of the Hou Li Dynasty, the two had no horses, silver or food, and they were struggling.

On the way back, Liu Zong fell ill on Monday and died before arriving in Guangdong.

Zhou Zhong was younger at any rate, and he returned to Guangdong only in mid-April after a near-death experience.

When the news reached the capital, the civil and military officials of the Manchu court in the capital were furious, and the prince was furious.

The barbaric small country beheaded and expelled its envoys, and the majesty of the Ming Dynasty disappeared.

Ding Yi, the North King of Fuzheng Town, said that the world has just been settled, and the people need to recuperate.

However, the "World Affairs" newspaper spread all over the capital, and the process was tortuous and bizarre. It described how Annan humiliated Daming.

The ruling and opposition parties were united, and they all wrote a letter requesting to send troops.

Ding Yi had no choice but to decide in June to send troops to Annan.

But in fact, in May, Li Dingguo cut the flag and sacrificed blood in Qinzhou, and denounced Annan's injustice. He raised 20 troops, claiming to be [-]. , starting from the sea.
-
In May of the 18th year of Chongzhen (1645).

The new governor, Xu Erxian, was standing on a castle at the pier, looking into the distance with binoculars.

Zhao Dashan was sent to fight Yunnan, Xu Er appeared as the governor-general, and Qiu Zhentai was stationed in Luzon.

Living overseas all year round, Xu Erxian is also used to the current life.

Last year Ding Yi sent someone to ask him if he should be transferred back to Daming to serve as the commander-in-chief of the town. Xu Erxian thought about it and decided to stay in Dayuan.

He had three wives, one Han, one from Fan, and he married a Portuguese in Luzon.

But Ding Yi also told him that no matter where he is in the future, those overseas will be replaced every five years, and those in Daming will be replaced every four years.

Xu Erxian is quite happy, at least he can stay for another five years.

The reason why he likes to stay with Da Yuan is that Xu Erxian watched Da Yuan grow step by step and become stronger and stronger.

He remembered very clearly that when he and Master Ding first arrived in Dayuan, there were less than [-] people here, and the territory was not as good as a county.

And now?
Xu Erxian turned around slowly, and slowly moved the telescope from the sea to the inside of the officer.

I saw the continuous flow of water on the sea, and the overwhelming boats were entering and exiting the three alleys of Dayuan.

Because Dazhu is getting more and more developed now, there are too many ships coming and going, and a new port has been built from the previous two ports.

Recently, because of the need to mobilize ships, soldiers and materials to attack Luzon, the ships here are like clouds, boundless, and some ships have to line up for half an hour at the beach to slowly approach.

Dayuan Island is even more densely populated. The territory currently controlled by Xu Erxian alone has a population of about 100 million.

It had been five or six years since Ding Yi left Da Yuan, and he never came again.

At that time, the population of Daxuan was only over 20, and the territory under its control accounted for about a quarter.

Afterwards, Zhao Dashan pressed forward step by step and captured gradually. After five or six years, finally in January of this year, he completely captured all the places of the whole staff.

Now, except for a few survivors who fled into some deep mountains that are difficult to penetrate, and continue to resist stubbornly, the entire army is basically occupied by the Ming army.

The four great plains of Dayuan are all in Xu Erxian's hands.

According to Ding Yi's policy, Xu Erxian moved the Fan people to the plains, divided the land and hoarded it, and organized households in groups, villages, and towns. In addition to the continuous immigration over the past few years, as well as his own reproductive development.

At present, there are more than 60 Han Chinese, about 6 Mongolians and Jurchens, and about 30 original residents (that is, raw and cooked Fans, Xu Erxian and others are now called original residents, and they are not allowed to be called Fans in public to lure them). , There are nearly [-] Europeans in the big staff.

The population of the entire Dayuan has exceeded one million, and three new cities, Yuanbei City (where Tai\North is located), Kelong City, and Nanzhong City, have been newly built. They are all large cities that can accommodate 10,000+ people, and they have not yet been completed.

The rapid development of the staff can be described as changing with each passing day. It is definitely a place where Xu Erxian is proud and even willing to work here for the rest of his life.

"My lord, the Shandong ship is here." Guo Poshi, the newly appointed general of the Tainan General Soldier, whispered to Xu Erxian at this time.

On the other side is Chen Zhimu, the chief soldier of Nanzhong, and quickly pointed to the distance: "Longevity grade, it seems to be new."

Xu Erxian turned the binoculars and took a closer look. In the distance, there was a new third-class Lushun-class battleship with the number 008 on the ship.

Now in Ding Yi's navy, there are three classes of Changsheng class, Jeju class, and Dayuan class, all of which are third-tier battleships.

Represents Lushun made, Jeju made, Daejun made respectively.

But the three third-tier battleships are different.

In fact, they are all the same in the early stage, and they are all called longevity grades, but they began to change after 16 years in Chongzhen, and the current manufacturing standards are different.

The Changsheng class reduces the number of cannons, increases the thickness of the armor, and increases the population load.

The new Changsheng-class three-tier battleship has changed the artillery from 48 to 36, but all of them are 42-pound heavy guns.

The thickness of the hull plate armor has been increased, and the defense is stronger. Many unnecessary things have been reduced in the interior space, and the storage of shells has been reduced. A full load can carry [-] infantry.

The Changsheng class is mainly used for offshore activities, including transporting supplies.

Because the hull is relatively heavy, it is not suitable for high seas. Usually, it is from Lushun to Japan and North Korea, and there are still big people running like this.

The Jeju class has also changed a lot. There are only twelve 42-pound guns, and there is no increase in the hull plate armor. Because the artillery and storage devices have been greatly reduced, it can carry [-] infantry with a full load. It is purely used as a troop carrier, and the speed of the ship Faster than the longevity class.

The ones made by the big staff are still similar to those before. After several years of improvement, the number of artillery pieces has basically remained the same, and they can be used for ocean-going operations.

Traveling to Luzon, or even Europe is no problem.

From the number of artillery pieces, Xu Erxian could tell that a new Changsheng-class battleship was approaching.

Recently, a large number of warships have been running around Guangdong, Dayuan and Quanzhou to transport troops and supplies.

This new longevity class ship should also be here to help.

"I saw General Ruan, let's go and meet him." Xu Erxian saw Ruan Siqing at the bow.

Ruan Siqing is now the chief of the Zhejiang Navy, stationed in Zhoushan and Songjiang.

In recent years, other people have been running the business, Ruan Siqing gradually withdrew, and he seldom came to the big staff.

Ruan Siqing came to be a senior official, usually representing Ding Yi.

Xu Erxian and others hurried to the pier.

Soon, Ruan Siqing disembarked.

"Haha, Brother Xu."

"Siqing." The two are also old brothers, Dayuan and Lu Song are the places where Ruan Siqing runs the most, and they embrace each other.

Ruan Siqing is now in her 30s, becoming more mature and steady.

He is very familiar with the generals.

The soldiers and horses of the officers and horses are rotated every two years, but the commanding generals have not been changed in the front, because the situation here is special and they need to be familiar with the local generals.

Now that the generals have been fully conquered, Ding Yi decided to change the generals of the army every five years, and now is the first year.

"My lord is afraid that you don't have enough ships, so I brought three large ships that have just left the factory to transport people and supplies for you." Ruan Siqing smiled.

"Hahaha, the sea here is full of our ships." Xu Erxian laughed.

They have the boat left by Zheng Zhilong, their original boat, and the boats confiscated from domestic merchants. Recently, thousands of boats have been sailing between Guangdong and Dayuan and Quanzhou every day.

"So much noise? Will Annan know?" Ruan Siqing asked.

"It's useless to know. Our upright soldiers and horses can't be stopped by any conspiracy." Xu Erxian is quite confident in their soldiers and horses.

Now it is not the Yongle period, Ding Yi's soldiers and horses are much better than Zhu Di's soldiers and horses, no matter the equipment or personal quality.

"Xiaomisa's [-] troops have already arrived in Guangdong, and I plan to mobilize another [-] troops to fight mountain warfare. It's better to use them." Xu Erxian also prepared [-] reserve troops, in case the front line is unfavorable, they can be used as reinforcements.

While everyone was talking and walking, Ruan Siqing also asked: "How many troops are there now?"

According to Xu Erxian, there are currently [-] Han troops, [-] Fan troops, and [-] Mongol and Jurchen allied troops on the Dayuan's side.

Luzon has [-] Han troops, [-] Fan troops and local indigenous allied forces.

There are [-] Han troops in Tai O Province and [-] Mongol Jurchen and Fan armies.

There are nearly [-] soldiers and horses in total.

This time when Annan was attacked, [-] Fan troops, [-] Han troops, and [-] Mongolian Jurchen troops were transferred away.

Of the [-] soldiers who fought against Annan, [-] belonged to senior officials.
