The Red House starts from Liaodong

Chapter 53 Nine Provinces Control
Whether it was Li Shenghu, Chen Kaiwu, Yu Zhi, Chen Hong and the others, Tang Qing'an had only one request for the ten management teams under him, to listen to him.

This is his current selection criteria, but it is more obscure.

Li Shenghu turned out to be the son of his superior, and he didn't get along very well with him, although the second brother thought that the other party had courage and was a qualified general, so he strongly recommended him.

Considering that the smuggling would pass through Li Biao's land in the future, Li Biao's rough image was actually a sharp one, so Tang Qing'an made an exception and accepted it.

But obedience is the premise.

Maybe the second brother had something to say, after Li Shenghu entered the camp, he carried out his orders meticulously, which made Tang Qing'an a little relieved.

Prince Teng is coming.

From the Jingying Jiedushi to the control of nine provinces, he was sent to the nine sides by order. Now he has arrived at Jizhen, and the next stop is Liaodong Town.

Tang Qing'an's treatment didn't change much, but more and more people sold him well. No matter who they met, they always greeted him with a smile.

It's been a few months, and those who should know about his footsteps know about it. Those who don't know are irrelevant and can just ignore him.

Tang Qing'an was in the camp, surrounded by a group of generals and officers, checking the sent military equipment.

Iron and palladium, knives and sticks, fierce oil tanks, swarms of bees, shocking thunder, ten thousand enemies, bowl-mouth guns... what can barely be used is the three-eyed fire gun.

Surrounded by all the generals, Tang Qing'an shook the three-eyed firecracker in his hand and threw it aside.

In this time and space, the most elite firearm should be the bird gun, which is a firearm highly recommended by Qi Jiguang in history, and it belongs to the most advanced matchlock gun of this era.

The three-eyed gun is also a type of fire door gun, which is very backward compared to the bird gun.

However, northern soldiers like to use it very much, because it is very thick and can be used as an iron rod. Compared with the slender bird gun, it feels more secure.

The messy pile of firearms under the feet, the precise function is to set off a big firework to scare the enemy away.

If we really talk about lethality, there is only the three-eyed firecracker in front of us, which can barely hurt the enemy.

How to describe the lethality.

In the original time and space, after the founding of the Qing Dynasty, it was strictly forbidden for private possession of weapons, but the three-eyed firecracker was not prohibited, which is enough to show the actual effectiveness of this thing.

Three years before he crossed over, he could still find three-eyed guns for sale on a certain treasure, and the rotten iron bumps sold for two hundred yuan, which also explained something.

In the original time and space, Qi Jiguang strongly recommended it. It took a lot of effort and twists and turns to reverse Jiubian's inherent point of view and popularize the bird gun in the northern army.

Now there is no Qi Jiguang, the bird gun is only used by the navy in the Jianghuai area, Tang Qing'an has seen it a few times, although it is also passed from Hongmao's hand, it was first imitated in Fujian.

The three-eyed firecracker can not only fire a gun, but can also be used as an iron rod. The captains of the Donghai Battalion are scrambling for this thing.

As for the other firearms, no one glanced at them.

The Beijing Gunpowder Bureau produces about 8-10 tons of gunpowder every day, which is supplied to Jingying and Jiubian.

The operation is too time-consuming, so Liaodong has long asked the court to build a gunpowder workshop, and the court will supply the required materials and make gunpowder locally.

This made it easier for Tang Qing'an, and he could practice firearms in the camp.

The three-eyed gun is also a firearm, so that the soldiers who have just transferred from the guard to the battalion can get used to it. When the prince arrives, ask him to transfer the bird gun.

But this time, can I see him?

Tang Qing'an was a little apprehensive.

Don't look at yourself as a backup now, but compared to the control of nine provinces, it's still not enough.

The "crackling" sound of the Donghai Camp alarmed Cai Wen, an engineering officer of the Gunpowder Workshop.

"Dude, do you want to embarrass me to death with your practice method?"

Tang Qing'an personally stepped forward, helped Cai Wen off the sedan chair, ignored his complaints, and greeted him with a smile.

"Brother Cai can send someone to inform you, there is no need to come here in person."

"What? I'm not welcome? Then I'll go?"

Just as Cai Wen got off the sedan chair, he pretended to leave, but instead of getting on the sedan chair, Tang Qing'an took advantage of the situation and grabbed the other party's sleeve.

"Today, I just caught a pair of ducks and gave them to me. I asked someone to make roast ducks. Brother Cai and I have a drink."

"It's hard to turn down the kindness, so it's better to obey than to be respectful."

Even the old senior officials in his engineering department had to curry favor, and Chen Ce, who had been promoted to the experience department, now it was difficult for him to curry favor if he wanted to.

The person in front of him is Chen Ce's confidant, and he has a big background behind him. Cai Wen also wants to make friends.

After three cups of wine, Tang Qing'an showed his true colors, the moon is the first to be close to the water, and today must be an autumn breeze.

"The amount of gunpowder has a quota, how can it be allocated to you at will? You can't do it." Cai Wen shook his head and did not agree.

The Gunpowder Workshop has not been officially started for a long time, and the production capacity is far from being raised. The daily output is not even 1000 catties, while Donghaiying has already asked for more than [-] catties.

Liaodong Town is still waiting for the supply from the gunpowder workshop, and Cai Wen dare not continue to promise.

The purpose of his coming to the Donghai camp today is to tell Tang Qing'an that he should save gunpowder, who practiced like him?Unexpectedly, the other party spoke first.

Tang Qing'an was not in a hurry, but had a bitter face.

"Brother Cai, you have also seen that we were raised by our stepmother, and the armaments that were issued were not wanted by others. Originally, the battalions in the army were all newly recruited. If we don't train them, we will end up inferior to others in everything. What's the difference."

Cai Wen still shirked the excuse and asked Tang Qing'an to go to Liaodong Dusi to ask for it.

"No, I have to ask Brother Cai today. Anyway, if you don't agree, I won't let you go."

Tang Qing'an joked.

Cai Wen nodded again and again, put down his wine glass and smiled, "The food in your camp is good. I stay here and eat plain rice every day. If there's anything I can't do, I can't ask for it."

The two of them were joking when suddenly several people came in. One of them, Tang Qing'an, recognized him as an official from the Department of Security.

"The new governor of the nine provinces is inspecting the nine borders. He has received news that he has left Ji Town and will be going to Shanhaiguan soon."

The official was sweating profusely, and stepped forward to pull Tang Qing'an up.

"Someone from the Dusi called you by name and asked you to go to the Shanghai Customs to accompany him to meet you. You should follow me to the Wei Division to explain something to you."

Cai Wen put down his wine glass and looked at Tang Qing'an in surprise.

Liaodong welcomes the new governor of the nine provinces, why call a small backup in front of him?Although he knows that the other party has a big background, but the background is too big.

Tang Qing'an apologized, Cai Wen understood and told him to go quickly, it doesn't matter if he is here.

The officials of the Department of Defense were all waiting for Tang Qing'an.

Commander, Tongzhi and others were silent.

There was nothing outstanding about this person coming last year. Within a few months, all the officials present recognized Tang Qing'an.

An ordinary hundred household, the official fortune is prosperous.

Is it someone sent by Jia's mansion? Jia's mansion, who has not seen him for many years, is still as powerful as before.
