Late Ming Dynasty: Conquering the world starting from riding and cutting

"By the way, don't write down what I say next on paper, keep it all in my mind!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone present could not help but be shocked. They arranged each other's clothes and sat upright, waiting for the lecture.

This has always been the case. In order to avoid being written down by historians and leaving a bad name in history a hundred years later, generally sinister things do not need to be recorded. Even if they are recorded, it is still a wonderful work, and the places that should be decorated are modified. Fight to prevent the civil servants from finding any problems.

The two who did the best among them were Li Shimin, who killed his brother and his father, and basically didn't mention it. He wrote a lot about the rule of Zhenguan. If he hadn't been really capable, his reputation as a tyrant would never have been concealed.

The second one is the Qing Dynasty, which was glorious and upright. Even Qianlong's public-funded travel to the south of the Yangtze River to pick up girls and eat and drink was said to be a prosperous scene. It can be seen that the historians at that time no longer recorded their mission.

Many civil and military officials were confused by Qin Hao. Could it be that our lord has done something surprising?

"First, the arsenals and warehousing departments in various places in Keelung should check all kinds of materials. Prepare two copies of grains, various non-staple foods and even dried fruits. You can't have a shortage or an overabundance or a rotten persimmon. The quality and quantity must be good. Grain and grass are important. I won't mention sex anymore. We are all veterans who have been on the battlefield for a long time.

The quantity of other items such as swords, guns, equipment, artillery, gunpowder, armor, flags, medicines, etc. will also be reported to me and the general's office for verification before the expedition. "

"Second, the Military Department and the Army Academy should check the military cadets and check how many battalions can be drawn from the garrison camps in various places. From the battalion officers, team officers to the commanders, and also calculate the two of our army's Let’s see how many soldiers and officers are from Ling’s hometown. We need to do this quickly. Once you find out, report it to me!”

"Third, in addition to preparing to receive refugees, Husi is also responsible for publicity and trying to get the people from Liangling to Keelung to survive!"

"Fourth, your department will dispatch at least 500 people from all levels of Keelung, including village chiefs, town chiefs, township chiefs, etc., and tell them that when two ridges of villages and towns are captured, they can He took office.

During this period, we need to increase their ideological training, so as not to lose the reputation of Keelung after taking office. "

"The same goes for the School Division. You will select two batches of 100 to 200 teachers each in your school, one for Lingnan and one for Lingxi, to carry out cultural and educational activities for local children."

People know very well that based on past experience, if such measures are implemented one by one, starting from the unit and village level, all operational power will fall into the hands of the Keelung Army, while literacy and cultural education will quickly transfer those The ideologies of the educated children and their parents and families are unified under the banner of the Keelung Army, allowing them to become part of the Keelung Army as quickly as possible.

As long as three to five years pass, the imperial power that began with the First Emperor will be completely cut off if he does not go to the countryside, and the gentry group of the Ming Dynasty will no longer be able to control the peasant class. The era when the people are the masters of the country is born!

Soon, nearly half of the people who attended the meeting left the meeting hall in the courtyard of the General's Mansion, each going to do the things Qin Hao had arranged.

The proceedings have also begun to come to the core.

"Now it's time to talk about how to deal with our Lord Governor of the Two Ridges!"

Qin Hao had a ferocious smile on his lips.

Qin Hao wanted to occupy the territory, and he also wanted to clean up those who were against him.

Since February of the first year of Chongzhen, Xiong Wencan has been promoted to the right minister of the Ministry of War and the censor of the right Qiandu, the governor of the military affairs of Liangling, and the governor of Lingnan. He has always expressed some ambiguous attitude towards the existence of the Keelung Army.

Unlike the previous adults, as long as you have money, I don’t care who you are?

But our Mr. Xiong is different. He is different from the previous ones. Not only does he want money more than anyone else, but he is also relatively lacking in character.

From time to time, he would secretly ask his men to visit the Qin and Han merchants in the city, apparently showing concern, but in fact, they would take away a lot of things every time they left.

It didn't hurt at first. Although the Qin and Han merchants reported it, Qin Hao didn't pay much attention to it. Until one time, Xiong Wencan led people to block the dock and robbed all the batch of salt. Soon someone appeared on the road. This incident made Qin Hao and Long Wei furious, and he wanted to kill him.

Good and evil will eventually be rewarded, it's not that they won't be repaid, the time has not yet come!

Now that the opportunity has come, I can’t let it go!

"How many swords and guns are there in the general's warehouse now?"

"Back to my lord, there are more than 15,000 long knives of various types, more than 51,300 spear heads of various types, and more than 5,000 Japanese sword handles."

Qin Hao nodded with satisfaction after hearing the number of old miscellaneous knives and guns captured in previous battles stored in the warehouse.

These knives and guns were looked down upon by the troops when used to equip them. Although they were numerous in number, they were huge in size and far different from the training requirements of the Keelung Army. The logistics pressure was too great and they were completely incompatible with the Qinggang Dao used in the army.

It would be a bit wasteful if they were handed over to the immigrants in various settlements for self-defense. Especially the weapons seized from the Tokugawa shogunate not long ago were all high-quality Japanese swords. It would be a good idea to distribute them to the immigrants in the settlements for use. Voted.

In addition, Taiwan Island has basically been cleared by the Keelung Army. In some places, the indigenous people have either surrendered or disappeared. It is true that they have no use for swords.

In this way, these weapons accumulated more and more in the warehouse.

If it were to be recycled, the Keelung Iron Mine would not look down on this bit of iron, and it would be a pity to lose it. These swords and guns would become a piece of useless material in the eyes of the Keelung Army. Now this piece of useless stuff has been put to great use.

But in his opinion, those who are poor may not be able to afford it.

"Lord, why don't we sell it to those who are powerful and directly fund the small ones so that they can continue to cause trouble?"

"Oh! Yes! You're right to remind me!" Qin Hao seemed to be waking up from a dream. He had to admit that Zhuge Xuan took care of me in every detail.

"Just do as you say."

After hearing the sensational words of the lord and his chief officer, several officials of the Household Affairs Department exchanged glances with each other, their eyes full of sympathy for Master Xiong and his soldiers who were not fully equipped with clothes, armor and equipment.

"These poor people who rose up to resist taxes and grain had no choice but to fight to the death. Now that we have the sophisticated swords, guns and equipment provided by our lord, I am afraid it is the officers and soldiers who went to encircle and suppress them who should say that their lives are suffering!"

But no one expected what would happen next. Before everyone could express their sympathy for Governor Bear, another new trick of the Lord came out.

As soon as this move came out, people immediately looked sad when they mentioned Governor Xiong. They were constantly analyzing in their minds, how did this guy offend the lord, and why did the lord treat him like this?

"At least 300 armor commanders, 100 team officers, and 3 battalion officers were dispatched from Shuntian Camp, Qijia Camp and other camps, and each person brought 50 soldiers with him."

"Lord, why is this?" Chen Hu from the military department seemed to understand Qin Hao's thoughts, but he did not dare to continue thinking.

"How do you think those farmers who have just put down their sickles to cut rice are the opponents of the government troops? So, we have to help them! By the way, let our brothers enter Lingnan ground development earlier."
