It’s better to buy than to make [please collect, seek order]

: Buy

Fu Kang'an and Guo Shixun must have been loyal ministers of the Qing Dynasty.

The kind that is unspeakable.

After all, one of them is the deputy governor of the Manchu Eight Banners and the other is the bannerman of the Han Eight Banners.

They are all considered "vested interests" of the Qing Dynasty.

Fu Kangan heard that the Ming army had defeated the 80,000 army with 3,000 troops within two days.

The skill of nourishing qi has been broken.

The originally tense face changed drastically.

Now his eyelids are pounding.

As the emperor of the Southern Ku, Guangdong had a lot of troops stationed, which was the focus of the Qing Dynasty's garrison.

Guangzhou's Five Thousand Eight Banners cannot be expected to go to the battlefield, but can only be used as a supervisory team to supervise the green camp to fight - if you really go to the battlefield, you will be afraid.

besides.

After escaping from the battlefield, he met Lin Guoliang again by chance. The two of them took a boat back to Guangzhou from West Borneo together and wiped their tears.

It turned out to be a mortar shell.

Fu Kang'an and Guo Shixun looked at each other, and then Guo Shixun waved his hand and signaled the two to retreat.

"Two lords, the Ming army called this kind of cannon a mortar, which is actually a reduced mortar. The shells enter from the muzzle, and there should be devices such as flintlock ignition at the bottom of the barrel, which ignites the launching medicine and leads, and shoots the shells out and explode after landing."

Lin Guoliang obviously studied it carefully.

He also took out an image of the mortar he had drawn himself.

Thinking of this.

After the two left.

"Shixun, it's better for you and I to report the situation and inform the price of the muskets and cannons."

"The constitutional supervision, the rebels suddenly arose, and Guangdong's defense must be cautious. Moreover, the rebels come from the sea. If there is a defense everywhere, there will be few everywhere. If the focus is on defense in Guangzhou, what will happen to all parts of Guangdong?"

Fu Kang'an pondered when he heard this.

Fu Kangan remained silent when he heard this, but he was complaining in his heart.

The two looked at each other and smiled knowingly.

He knelt on the ground and walked forward a few steps.

In the Qianlong Dynasty, he had outstanding military achievements.

Lin Guoliang hurriedly said, "Take it, take it, and it's just outside. In addition, Bei Zhi also found this from the battlefield."

The troops in Guangdong are really not strong enough.

"Please look, two adults, this shell has a tail wing, which must be like an arrow. The tail wing is used to stabilize the ballistics to improve hit rate and stability. The one wrapped in the iron rod should be the ejection medicine, and the one loaded in the shell is explosive."

The number of Guangzhou Eight Banners soldiers under the jurisdiction of the Guangzhou General was 5,000.

Lin Guoliang was just talking.

Because of this cannon and flintlock rifle, the Qing Dynasty was not unable to build it.

Guo Shixun said.

"oh?"

If the more than 10,000 troops on the Ming army were all such elite troops.

However, the distribution of the Green Camp soldiers is relatively scattered.

But a group of old men who live in a pampered manner in the city.

"I am just thinking that Western artillery is cheap, while the construction office of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is expensive. In this way, it is really better to buy it than to build it."

"purchase?"

Among them, in Guangdong, there were 2,000 Guangdong Governor Biaoying stationed in Guangzhou, 5,000 Guangdong Admiral Biaoying stationed in Zhaoqing, 6,000 Guangdong Navy General Biaoying stationed in Shaozhou, Huizhou, Gaozhou, and Nanxiong cities, 1,600 defenders in Meiguan, Nanxiong, and the soldiers in the counties below were only 500, and at least 200.

The total is about 50,000.

All the Liu family industries were confiscated.

If you want to talk about who is most motivated now, you have to go against Zhu Daohua.

"Yes! Buy!" Weisent said, "The leader of the Niming thief was greedy for finance and opened up arms trade to the countries in the South China Sea. Although we may not be able to buy muskets and cannons directly from Niming Daohuaxing, we can buy them through the Nanyang countries, which is nothing more than more money."

Liu Ganxing was killed.

Buying arms out is indeed a good idea.

Guo Shixun immediately stood up.

He is also considered a man of the military affairs.

Control all the Green Camp troops in Guangdong and Guangxi.

However, Fu Kang'an has not fought any wars. He led his troops to participate in the Battle of Jinchuan, suppressing the Sala Uprising in Gansu, and suppressing the Lin Shuangwen Uprising in Taiwan.

“Can you bring it here?”

But he is Liu Guangliang.

Fu Kang'an is the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi.

A circle of gunpowder was wrapped in cotton cloth on the iron pipe.

What does that have to do with them?

"Two sirs, the biggest advantage of the Ming army is nothing more than the benefits of guns and cannons! We can buy these guns and cannons!"

After reading it, Fu Kangan lost interest.

He was the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, and he was holding an army of 70,000 to 80,000 under his command.

Wescent suggested.

The number of people who can be drawn will not exceed 50,000.

Opened carefully.

I'm afraid it's not the Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi Fu Kang'an.

Liu Guangliang hurriedly said: "Mustgun is not expensive, it only costs 5 Mingyuan, which is equivalent to about 8 taels of silver per musket, and a six-pound cannon costs 300 Mingyuan, which is about 500 taels of silver to buy one."

So cheap?

As he said that, Lin Guoliang raised a burden under his feet.

"Eight taels of silver are not insured. If you can't buy eight taels of silver, wouldn't you and I betray the emperor?"

In Guangxi, there is a green camp with a total number of about 30,000 people.

I can't fight any longer.

"The manufacturing is quite excellent, but it's nothing special. If the Interior Office is willing to pay for it, it can be made." Guo Shixun turned around and looked at it.

He knows very well

The Eight Banners Master is no longer the ruthless man who came out of the mountains and forests back then.

For many forces in Southeast Asia.

I'm already worried.

Deduct the necessary garrisoning forces stationed in various places.

Let the Ministry of Internal Affairs build it?

Don't say whether you can create such a fine one.

But now, it is the national policy of the Qing Dynasty to open up the country and keep the country closed.

"According to the opinions of the officials, we should immediately enter Beijing. On the one hand, we should report the situation to the emperor, on the other hand, we should request the imperial court to transfer green camps from various provinces to help Guangzhou, on the third, we should ask the emperor to allocate funds to build ships, artillery, and on the other hand, and on the fourth. On the other hand, we should suggest that the emperor can purchase arms from the Southern Ocean and Western Yi to strengthen Guangdong's defense."

If the purchase of weapons from outside without authorization is not done by the minister, the emperor is also afraid that the emperor will be suspicious.

Now only the bluffing function is left.

"Sir, my family originally bought a small number of muskets used by the Neiming, which is no different from those used by the Dutch in Southeast Asia. In addition to the mortars, they also use the long-barrel six-pound cannon commonly used by Westerners."

The consumption of gunpowder is more expensive.

If this musket was built by the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Fu Kang'an and Guo Shixun looked at each other.

Fu Kangan nodded repeatedly.

Fu Kang'an's eyes lit up.
