Chapter 115: Qi Yue’s Seven Guns?Seven Dwarfs!
"The recruitment of troops will be completed as soon as possible. When summer comes, the towns under my command will replenish their troops." Sun Kewang said in a deep voice.

"Yes!" Wan Niance and others said respectfully.

Using [-] elite troops to recruit [-] new troops, this project is huge and extremely difficult.

But when Xiying entered Yunnan in the past, there were only [-] remnants.

After the autumn harvest of the first year, Yunnan was ripe and the army was expanded by tens of thousands.

Now, with [-] elite soldiers as the core, it is difficult to organize [-] recruits.

But compared to when I first entered Yunnan, it is still much smaller.

After all, in the past, Xiying had 20 remnants as its core, and it expanded to more than [-] people.

Although Sun Kewang doesn't have as much time now as before.

But firstly, he has a strong capital, and secondly, there are more Han people and fewer mountain people in Guangxi, so it is easier to absorb him.

Thirdly, in the past, we had to cross the river by feeling for the stones, and everything had to start at the beginning.

And now, whether it is the governance of Guangxi or the recruitment of new soldiers, he and the Sixth Administrative Department can be traced.

It's naturally easy to do it.

Therefore, the expansion of the army by [-] did not depend on how bold the people were or how productive the land was.

Rather, it is an ambitious strategic goal based on one's current status.

Although this goal is ambitious, it is not impossible to achieve even if you grit your teeth.

In that case, let’s do a good job!
April of the 12th year of Yongli.

Everywhere in Guangxi is peaceful.

Under the temptation of dividing the fields, it is like Yunnan in the past.

Countless mountain people of all ethnic groups walked out of the mountains and came to various plains.

After receiving the money and rations used to appease people's hearts.

Hard work turned acres and acres of wasteland into fertile farmland again.

And in Taiping, Nanning and Lianzhou.

Countless Han people and mountain people enthusiastically joined the army in front of Lord Sun's food and salary.

He looked like he was going to die for Lord Sun.

Thanks to the numerous grain and salary collections in Guangxi and Annan.

Sun Guozhu gave each selected soldier ten taels of silver and two dan of food.

This made the young men in Guangdong and Guangxi rush towards the recruitment offices set up by Lord Sun one by one.

Of course, most people failed to win, and only a few who were in good health could join the glorious front army.

It is not that simple to get money and food from Lord Sun.

First of all, your height must meet the standard. No matter how you dress, you must be over 1.6 meters and a half.

You must know that Lord Sun's new army is going to fight the Eight Banners soldiers.

If he looks like Wu Dalang, 1.5 meters tall, how can he fight?
You are already 1.5 meters tall. No matter how much Sun Guozhu raises you, can you beat a 1.7 meter tall one?

The Eight Banners is not a fat house, and the money and food are not less than yours. How can a person who is 1.5 meters tall beat a person who is 1.7 meters tall?
So no matter how low you are, your height must be over 1.6 meters and a half.

After all, if you are thinner, you can use food to keep you strong, but if you are not tall enough, you will not be saved.

Of course, after all, it is the average height of Chinese people in the Ming Dynasty. Although it is much shorter than later generations due to lack of nutrition, there are actually quite a few strong men around 1.6 meters and a half, so Sun Guozhu can be confident. So many high-quality soldiers have been selected.

If he were in Japan next door, he would be too clever to make a living without rice, so he could only choose according to the requirement of 1.4 meters.

That’s right, it’s 1.4 meters!
What is a Japanese pirate?Japanese ronin and samurai are shorter than our Chinese people!
The generals and heroes from the Warring States Period, if you take a look at them with their underwear open, you would laugh to death!

Honda Tadakatsu, one of the Three Tokugawa Heroes, the Four Tokugawa Kings, and the Sixteen Tokugawa Divine Generals, is known as the number one in Japan, the Zhang Fei of Japan, and the unparalleled samurai in ancient and modern times. He is 1.4 meters tall.

Takeda Shingen, one of the top three heroes of the Warring States Period and known as the Tiger of Kai, is 1.5 meters tall.

Kenshin Uesugi, the opponent of the Tiger of Kai, the Dragon of Echigo, is 1.5 meters tall.

As for the three people from the world, Oda Nobunaga is 1.6 meters 1.5, Tokugawa Ieyasu is 1.4 meters 1.6, and Toyotomi Hideyoshi is [-] meters.Japan's number one soldier, Yukimura Sanada, is only [-] meters tall.

In addition to these, Ikeda Terumasa is 1.3 meters tall, Yamagata Masakei is 1.3 meters tall, and Tokugawa Tsunayoshi is 1.2 meters tall.

Damn, the big names with good living standards have such crazy statistics, what kind of standard should the people at the bottom with poor nutrition be like!

In fact, the Japanese soldiers couldn't fight. The problem was their height.

In terms of morale, the Japanese have always been quite tough, and there are many people who are not afraid of death during war.

You know, later generations even developed kamikaze attacks and Kaiten torpedoes.

The Japanese soldiers' daring to fight is world-famous at all times and at home and abroad!

But if you dare to fight and fight hard, it doesn’t necessarily work!

You're 1.4 meters long, so what if you dare to beat me?

In North Korea, when faced with a Ming army that was over 1.6 meters tall, they could kill a 1.4-meter-long warrior with only half the pay.

Therefore, being tough and tough is of no use. If you don't have good physical fitness, unless you bully North Korea, the weakest among weaklings, otherwise the Japanese soldiers will be defeated when they encounter a slightly normal army.

With the height of a Japanese, Toyotomi Hideyoshi wanted to conquer China, damn it.

What is the level of the Qiyue Qiben gun he has?
Zhang Sheng, who works under Sun Guozhu, is nearly two meters tall.

Jiyue had seven spears in front of him, the most powerful general in the Western Camp. How could he give him seven spears? The seven dwarves were all the same.

With Zhang Sheng's physique and three layers of armor, he could kill indiscriminately in both the Ming and Qing armies.

If you encounter Japanese soldiers, kill a child with a knife.

Except for the most important data: height.

Before joining the army, physical strength and other aspects must also be tested.

After all, it’s different now than in Yunnan, where as long as the height is up to standard.

You can practice your physique slowly.

And now, the decisive battle with the Qing army will begin in less than a year.

If the body and bones are too weak, Lord Sun’s money and food will not be enough to support him!
Fortunately, the mountain people all over Guangxi are walking fast in the ravines.

There are many people who meet the standards of the front army.

Therefore, the recruitment of [-] new troops went extremely smoothly.

It started at the end of October last year and ended in mid-April this year.

The number of soldiers and horses under Sun Kewang's command gradually expanded to about 10.

The recruitment of one hundred thousand wolf soldiers has been completed.

Money and food from Annan and Guangdong were continuously imported into Guangxi.

The [-] hectares of cultivated land in Guangxi and Gaolian Leiqiong are even more green.

A scene full of vitality and everything is happening.

Next, it depends on whether the training and armament work can be completed in the remaining time.

In mid-April, when Sun Kewang was training the new army in full swing.

Three armies of the Qing army met near Guiyang, and the entire southwest was shaken.

News of the defeat continued to spread back to Kunming, and the entire Yongli court suddenly felt that a storm was coming.

Li Dingguo returned to the court from Yongchang in March, and Liu Wenxiu also obeyed the imperial edict and returned to Kunming from Guiyang.

In early April, Liu Wenxiu, the king of Shu, was accused of recruiting surrender and accepting rebels in Guizhou, with hidden intentions of rebellion.

He had to hand over all his troops and possessions to prove his innocence.

Just after Liu Wenxiu failed politically and was deprived of all power, news came that the Qing army had occupied Guiyang.
