Chapter 85 Acting School

By the way, not everyone is as contented as Yang Feng this winter.

Dorgon was busy showing himself.

After showing the people of Jinan a style of a wise lord and wise ruler, and the mighty and majestic Qing Dynasty royal army, he then went to climb Mount Tai and then went to Qufu to pay homage to the great holy master of Dacheng's supreme saint Wenxuan. This was added to him on behalf of his nephew. Originally, there was neither Dacheng nor Wenxuan. In addition, he also added 100,000 acres of sacrifice fields to Yanshenggong. As for where these sacrifice fields came from, there is no need to say more.

Then the eight deserts of sing the prosperous age.

It is said that in order to show his loyalty to the state dynasty, Yan Shenggong even put on his new clothes. Although he did not shave his head like Sun Zhixi, the minister of the Ministry of War, who had just been appointed, he also took off his old official uniforms of the previous dynasty and wore his new holy dynasty costume to worship his ancestors.

I don’t know if his ancestors can recognize him.

Of course, this doesn't matter.

In short, as Kong Yinzhi changed into the yellow jacket that looked like a monkey, the Qing Dynasty finally gained the recognition of Confucianism and became another example of the barbarians entering China and becoming China.

As for the Emperor of Ming Dynasty...

Let’s play with this kind of king of Jie and Zhou!

There are so many emperors in the world, why do you have to hang yourself on a tree?

Even if you defect to Li Zicheng, you can't join him!

Well, Li Zicheng is also very busy at this time.

He and Dorgon probably had reached a tacit understanding. Anyway, the Shun army did not cross the Yellow River to the north, and the Qing army did not cross the Yellow River to the south. After all, he could not afford Dorgon, and Dorgon's number one enemy is no longer him. It is reasonable for the two to make up for a bachelor's relationship. Nikan led the elite 10,000 Eight Banners and the 50,000 Shun army led by Li Guo, one stationed in Xinxiang and the other stationed in Zhengzhou. They played a protracted confrontation across the Yellow River. Seeing that the situation was ready to continue confrontation. Emperor Yongchang of Dashun, who had no worries for the time being, held high with the banner of the word "Chuang" and rushed south. Then Gao Jie, Liu Liangzuo, and Liu Zeqing all ran away. Shun army rushed to the bank of the Huai River like a bamboo shoot. Li Zicheng soldiers were in Fengyang, Liu Fangliang soldiers were in Huai'an, Gao Yi's heroes were in Hefei, and 400,000 Shun troops drank horses and tigers of the Huai River to look at the Yangtze River.

Yangzhou is in turmoil.

"Wastes are all a group of wastes. Why don't I understand? They want soldiers, generals, and generals. They want money, money, food and food. How can they let a group of bandits beat them up? Hundreds of thousands of troops are piled up there, even hundreds of thousands of pigs, so they won't let the rebellion be in the Huai River!"

Yang Feng said indignantly while taking the map.

Although his sea transportation was cut off, the information was not cut off. He knew the movements of Li Zicheng and Dorgon, but it was not timely enough.

"It seems that Yangzhou is worrying!"

Wu Sangui said worriedly.

This is more than worrying, it is simply no chance. Li Zicheng's three armies marched into an arc-shaped encirclement to compress Chuyang and the two prefectures. The outer edges were nothing more than Hefei, Fengyang and Huaian. One point broke and it immediately collapsed. Fengyang was designated to have no chance. When he heard that Li Zicheng had committed suicide, Ma Shiying and Lu Jiude ran away, leaving only Liu Liangzuo guarding there. Although there was still the Huai River, he was aiming at Liu Liangzuo's past glorious record. It was estimated that Li Zicheng would have to run once he crossed the river. Now it was just because of the Huai River blocking. Li Zicheng was not ready to cross the river.

"Where is Zuo Liangyu? Why didn't he send troops to rescue Hefei?"

Yang Feng said.

Gao Yigong besieged Hefei, but Zuo Liangyu from the upstream did not send any troops to rescue him.

"Zuo Liangyu has always been in a state of disagreement with Huang Degong, who guards Hefei. He will not be enthusiastic about rescuing Huang Degong. He is also very dissatisfied with the king of Tang. In addition, he has always been accustomed to holding troops and respecting Nanjing's orders. It is estimated that this time he wanted to wait until the strength of the rebels was consumed by the four towns, and then he would go down the river with hundreds of thousands of troops of his troops, so that he could reap the benefits of the fisherman, not only to resolve the crisis facing Nanjing, but also to take the opportunity to control the government!"

Zhang Mingzhen said with a sneer.

"I was really blind before, why did I raise such a bunch of wolves and hearts!"

Yang Feng said in grief and anger.

Of course, he was purely acting. He was happy at this time. Is Li Zicheng able to do this just relying on him stab Dorgon in the back? Otherwise, the Qing army would have been driven to Jiugong Mountain, how could he recover so quickly and drink the Huaihe River? Of course, the play still needs to be performed. After all, his country is falling. Although the people in the occupied areas cheered and opened the door to welcome the King of Chuang. Li Zicheng was so powerful that it was largely because the Ming army in Jiangbei was too bad, such as Liu Zeqing and Gao Jie. The military discipline was so corrupt that the people spontaneously organized to defend the city and prevent them from entering. It is conceivable how popular Li Zicheng would be when the King of Chuang came.

As for Yangzhou...

Imagine the spectacular scene of the King of Chuang and torture the Yangzhou salt merchant with a stick. Yang Feng felt that the fall of Yangzhou would be the same.

"What are the good ideas do you have?"

Yang Feng said with a gloomy face.

"Your Majesty, what I can think of is just the army that is transferred to the south, but I can't dispatch many troops to drive out. You can't ignore Your Majesty's safety, right? At most, 10,000 or 20,000 Jiangsu and Zhejiang troops will be transferred back to the rescue. Even if the Jiangsu and Zhejiang troops are transferred back to the rescue, you must wait until the sea thawing and transportation road is smooth. Now all warships are sealed in the port. No matter what you want to do, it is useless. I can only hope that the army in Jiangbei can defend Fengyang and other places."

Gao Di said honestly.

"Oh, then let's do it for now. I'm really exhausted."

Yang Feng said sadly, covering his head.

The ministers quickly retreated, but only Song Yingxing stayed. Then Yang Feng and he went to the military base in Xiluo City with him. At this time, the huge factory was still busy. Although the river freezes, many machinery cannot be used, but they are not impossible to work without these machinery. It is just that the output is affected. The largest iron smelting blast furnace was stopped because the hydraulic blower was frozen, but several small iron smelting blast furnaces that could use livestock blowers did not stop.

It is said to be small, but one furnace can produce more than a thousand kilograms of pig iron.

Because of the use of selected iron ore and the application of desulfurization technology, the quality of these pig irons is far greater than that of previous ones.

The melted iron flows directly into the nearby dough furnace. In the Pudlin furnace that was copied almost as it is, the carbureted iron with high carbon content gradually turned into dough molten iron with extremely low carbon content or low carbon steel. Yang Feng actually didn't understand what it was. It was basically something between dough molten iron and low carbon steel. However, because there was no large blower, the furnace temperature was insufficient, so the molten iron was in a semi-solidified state.

And the molten iron is poured into molds and turned into iron ingots.

This is his steel factory.

These iron ingots also need to be burned red for repeated forging to squeeze out the remaining iron oxide slag. Originally, this work could be done by hydraulic forging hammers, but now it can only be solved by those workers with sledgehammers.

The forged iron ingots become pieces of cooked iron plates that meet the specifications. These cooked iron plates are wrapped around the steel rollers and then welded the joints to the joints. A cooked iron pipe is made like this. Then the second layer of cooked iron is rolled up and turned into a thick blank of the barrel. Of course, there are also a lot of cumbersome procedures, especially the polishing and processing of the barrel inside, which is very time-consuming. The efforts of countless craftsmen can become a qualified bandit gun.

"The key is to manufacture gun barrels. With good steel, these small parts are not hard to work."

Song Yingxing said.

There was also a large row of small graphite crucibles in front of them. Inside these crucibles were molten steel. The small special parts on the Kangke Gun were cast here, including springs, and the molten steel was cast out and then processed in the later stage.

These are all easy.

However, without hydraulic machinery, one can only use animal power. The speed is very slow and it takes several days to drill out one. Fortunately, the emperor provided high-hard steel as tools, otherwise one would have drilled one in a month.

"Don't worry about this, I've solved it for you!"

Yang Feng said.

At the same time, a large number of Jinyiwei came over with thin steel pipes behind him. This was his solution. He could not bear the output of the slaughter gun here, so he simply continued to use external plug-ins. He asked Xiaoqian to get a batch of small-diameter steel pipes. This thing has no problem with strength or smoothness in the inner diameter. The only problem was that the diameter was slightly larger than his slaughter gun. The slaughter gun was 19 mm, and this one was twenty, but he couldn't find the 19 mm steel pipe. Fortunately, the difference was not big, and it was just that the outside of the bullet was thicker.

"That's all!"

Song Yingxing said in surprise.

As for where these steel pipes come from, he didn't even ask about it. It must be rewarded by Taizu. It would be better to have an emperor who can communicate with gods at any time!

"I have given you this gun barrel, and the rest depends on you. My requirements are not high. Before the spring is thawed, every soldier in the new army must hold the bandit gun in his hand. Therefore, you still need to create three thousand pieces in a maximum of three months. If you can complete this task, I will reward you with a viscount. In addition, all the craftsmen here will pay three months of wages, and the Firearms Department will pay three months of salary. But if you can't create it, then you, the Minister of Works, and all the officials of the Firearms Department will deduct three months of salary."

Yang Feng said.

"I will not let go of my holy grace."

Song Yingxing gritted his teeth and said.

That's all. Yang Feng's Bandit Camp has been upgraded to Bandit Camp. The formal organization includes a cannon battalion with twelve nine-pound field cannons, that is, a twelve-pound bronze Napoleon cannon, a cavalry reconnaissance battalion, and four thousand-person infantry battalions. Each battalion has a team of two four- and a half-digit field cannons, which is six-pound cannons. All cannons have been built, but there are only one thousand Bandit guns. A total of two thousand of this thing was built. The Jinyiwei took away five hundred, and Wu Sangui and other generals took away some, only half of them were given to the Bandit Camp.

With another three thousand troops, the brigade will be equipped with one another, and then they can start training.

Use the lives of the Tartars to train.
