Back to the end of the Ming Dynasty to engage in infrastructure construction

Chapter 202
Zhao Cheng didn't expect that these guys would really dare to wear yellow robes.

You know, in this era, if you rebel and become a bandit, there may be a way back.

There are even many people who have been recruited after becoming big...

It is very common to kill people and set fire to gold belts.

But once he becomes emperor, there is no turning back at all, as long as he punishes the nine clans.

Even if he gains power for a while, for generations to come, don't even think about getting the court's approval again.

This is also the reason why many people, no matter how powerful they are, dare not openly rebel.

After all, Miao Xu grew up in Liaodong. From the time he can remember, he was under the rule of the Tartars and lacked respect for the Ming court.

Niu Dali and others are even newborn calves who are not afraid of tigers.

They encouraged each other to do such a reckless and arrogant thing.

If you were an important minister like Xu Guangqi, it would not be so easy to do things like "adding a yellow robe".

"Now is not the time to be emperor."

Zhao Cheng waved his hand to calm everyone down, and he was not in a hurry to take off the imperial robe.

When Miao Xu and the others listened, their eyes lit up, and their faces were filled with uncontrollable excitement.

My lord has said that now is not the time to be called emperor... In other words, my lord also has the intention of being called emperor!

"The Jurchens own the land of Liaodong, and there are [-] to [-] people in the Jurchen Eight Banners alone. They attacked the Mongols and suppressed the Ming Dynasty, so that the Ming army did not dare to go out of the city and fight with them in the field. Even so, Huang Taiji did not Eager to become emperor.

The situation between us and the Jurchens is different.We are one with Daming.If we proclaim ourselves emperor, it is equivalent to directly declaring war on the Ming court.

The Ming court will have no way out, and can only put aside all contradictions and concentrate all forces to conquer us.Although we have nearly ten thousand soldiers, this strength is enough to sweep the Ming army.

But in the war of destroying the country, it is inevitable that people will die.More importantly, although Daming is exhausted now, the centipede is dead but not stiff.There are more than one million brave fighters across the country.

There are not many soldiers who are good at fighting, such as Zu Dashou from Jinzhou, Wu Xiang and his son from Shanhaiguan, Lu Xiangsheng from the Tianxiong Army, Hong Chengchou, the three-time governor..."

Zhao Cheng casually listed them all as famous figures in history.

To be honest, there were still some fierce people in the Chongzhen Dynasty.

The only blame is that Chongzhen is too incompetent and suspicious by nature, which can be seen from the fact that he has changed 52 chief assistants in this dynasty.

Most of those violent people were directly or indirectly killed by Chongzhen.

It is only five years since Chongzhen, and Ming Dynasty still has many troops that can be mobilized, and many generals who can recruit and fight well.

Chongzhen could continue to work for more than ten years before draining the blood of this behemoth and finally crashing down.

There were many reasons for the demise of the Ming Dynasty, but Chongzhen, an incompetent but hardworking emperor, was definitely a great assistant who played a role in promoting it.

"We are not afraid of these Ming troops, we can defeat them, but when we have other options, we don't need to attract all the firepower to ourselves just because of a false name.

What's more, even if we occupy the entire Ming Dynasty, do we have the talents to govern the country now?The Ming court has occupied the world for more than 200 years, and until now, the imperial power still does not go to the countryside.

How far can Emperor Chongzhen's orders really govern?I don't want to sit high on the Dragon Court and be fooled by people like a lunatic. "

When Miao Xu listened, his heart was agitated.

It's not that Zhao Cheng doesn't want to become emperor, it's not that Zhao Cheng doesn't have the ability to conquer the world.

What restrains Zhao Cheng now is only because there are too few talents under him.

Even if the world is conquered, there are no talents who can manage the world.

Miao Xu had also noticed this a long time ago, which was why he was very impulsive. He had not joined the strong army for a long time, so he took the risk of proposing to add a yellow robe to Zhao Cheng.

This is his chance.

He can read and write, and rushing forward, maybe he is Liu Bowen under Mr. Zhao's subordinates!

"We are not emperors now, not because of anything else, but because we don't have a talent system to manage the world, and we don't have enough civil servants and generals. We have to develop slowly. The world will be ours sooner or later.

Of course, we are not emperors, but it is not like doing nothing.We are going to form a new government.

Because we are in Liaodong, but our territory will not be limited to Liaodong.To the north of Liaodong, to the North Sea where Suwu shepherds sheep, and even further north, there is a perennially frozen ocean; to the east, to Sakhalin Island, and even the new continent across the strait...all will be our territory.

Our new government, from the first day of its establishment, is not limited to Liaodong. The meaning of our existence lies in conquest!

Conquer the inherent land of our Han people, conquer all the disobedient lands in the whole world!Therefore, whether our Qiangdi Army or the Huai'an Army, we have all changed their names to the Crusade Army!
Our new government is called the conquest of the military government, or the military government for short.As long as one day, the world has not been completely conquered, and it has not been completely included in our Han system, our conquering army will not change its name for a day.

Conquering the army, all victorious! "

Zhao Cheng raised his right arm and shouted.

Niu Dali and the others were all excited.

As long as the world is not completely conquered, and it is not completely included in our Han system, our conquering army will not change its name for a day...

Listen to this, it's so exciting!
They don't know what kind of ocean is frozen all year round in the extreme north, and they don't know what Sakhalin Island is, let alone a new continent separated by a strait after Sakhalin Island...

But they knew that there were so many new lands waiting for them to conquer, and they followed Mr. Zhao, so they would not be afraid to fight without a fight.

"Conquering the army, all victorious!"

"Conquering the army, all victorious!"

All stood up, raised their right arms and shouted.

From this moment, the Qiangdi Army officially changed its name to the Crusade Army.

Zhao Cheng looked at everyone with a smile on his face, and after the shouts calmed down, he continued:
"We are conquering the military and military government, which is a military-political regime led by the Xianxing Society. The highest head of our military is the Marshal of Bingma; the highest leader of the Xianxing Society is the president. I, Zhao Cheng, am the No.1 Xianxing Society President, now, I propose that I become Marshal Ma of the Expeditionary Army. Please raise your hand if you agree."

As soon as Zhao Cheng's voice fell, everyone immediately raised their hands.

Everyone is already familiar with this form of voting by show of hands.

After Niu Dali raised his hand, he deliberately stood up and scanned the crowd, all of them staring with calf-like eyes.

See what this means, if anyone dares not to raise his hand, they can tear him apart.

However, their worries are clearly superfluous.

Because everyone present worshiped Zhao Cheng as if they were gods, and they all supported Zhao Cheng wholeheartedly.

"Okay! Thank you for your support. I will definitely be the Marshal of the Army and the President of the Advance Society.

Seven days later, the inauguration ceremony will be held in Shengjing, and there will be a military parade at that time! "

Zhao Cheng issued his first order after taking up the post of Marshal of Bingma.

Niu Dali and the others all agreed with a bang.

……

In the early morning, the morning sun has just risen, the grass is still dewy, and the loud horn has already sounded.

Teams of expeditionary soldiers are training hard.

They lined up in a row for morning exercise and running training.

"Whose food are we eating?" an officer leading the team yelled and asked.

"Let's eat Master Zhao's meal!" All the soldiers shouted in unison.

The sound was terrifying.

"Whose clothes are we wearing?" the officer leading the team asked again.

"We wear Master Zhao's clothes!" All the soldiers shouted again in unison.

"Who do we listen to?" the officer leading the team asked loudly.

"We listen to Mr. Zhao!" All the soldiers shouted from the bottom of their hearts.

This is the first principle of training in a strong field. First of all, you need to know whose food you are eating.

What they ate was not the food and salaries of the court, but the food given by Mr. Zhao.

In their eyes, only Master Zhao.

Power grows out of the barrel of a gun.In this troubled world, what Zhao Cheng needs most is a loyal team.

The Crusade Army was the first time that Zhao Cheng publicly declared his separation from the Ming court.

Naturally, their military uniforms are no longer mandarin duck battle jackets, but gray military uniforms with long trousers and jackets. The style refers to the clothing of the Beiyang warlords.

Equipped with an advanced breech-loading rifle, the Lee-Enfield rifle has a magazine capacity of up to ten rounds, a fast rate of fire, high accuracy, and a long range.

There is no need for such an army to wear cotton armor.

Heavy cotton armor is not only uncomfortable, but also consumes one's physical strength, making it inconvenient for long-distance marches, and it will also restrict people's movements.

When Zhao Cheng took out this dusty military uniform for the first time, Niu Dali and others originally refused.

They are used to seeing the mandarin duck battle jacket, and feel that the brand new mandarin duck battle jacket seems to be more powerful.

However, Mr. Zhao took the lead in changing clothes, and he was wearing the same gray military uniform as theirs.

According to Mr. Zhao, the difference is only in the epaulettes...

Since Mr. Zhao put it on first, they naturally have nothing to say.

After putting it on, I did morning exercises and jogging, and it was much easier.

Zhao Cheng looked at the drill team, each team of soldiers, was full of energy and momentum, which made him very satisfied.

boom!
boom!
The sound was loud, but the artillery was training.

Seven or eight people operated a Napoleon cannon, and practiced the shooting process over and over again according to the manual.

"On the battlefield, the rate of fire is life! If you move faster and operate more standardly, you can fire two more rounds of artillery, and the enemy will die.

If you move too slowly, if the enemy rushes over, you will be the ones who die!quick!quick!quick! "

The veteran who was training the recruits roared loudly and kept urging.

"what!"

There was a scream, and the artillery positions panicked.

It was a recruit whose long hair accidentally got caught in the cannon carriage during training.

After firing several rounds of the Napoleon cannon, the barrel was so hot that his hair was ignited, and the recruit was terrified.

A group of people were in a hurry before they were extinguished.

Zhao Cheng rushed over, and after asking about the situation, without further ado, he called the recruit, picked up the scissors, "Crack! Crack!" and cut off the man's hair.

Seeing this, the recruit was stunned for a moment, and the next moment, he knelt down on the ground in horror.
