Chapter 159: How can there be unbreakable barriers in the world!
Of course, Peiping is still very good. The buildings there are beyond the reach of Taiwan.
The city is tall and magnificent, and the imperial city is magnificent, reflecting the extremely high level of construction engineering technology in the later period of feudal society.
There is a gathering of supplies in Peiping, many merchants, and the level of prosperity is far less than that of Taiwan.
Southeast Mansion only beats the imperial capital in terms of sanitation and cleanliness, but it is incomparable in other aspects.
But, the more you see, the more you feel!
Especially in the capital city, seeing the officers and soldiers slacking off, standing without standing, sitting without sitting, and some openly sleeping when they were on duty, amazed the visitors from the southeast government!
In the Southeast Mansion, when the sentry sleeps on duty, that is a felony of decapitation!
Yan Changwu touched the Dutchman's **** when he started his family, and there is a serious problem of the Dutch sentry negligence. How can he not beware of it, so he has extremely strict military discipline, and his Southeast Mansion sentry dare to do this and will never forgive it!
All the people in the Southeast Mansion discussed in private: "This class of army is still the Beijing army, not even as good as my ordinary soldier in the Southeast Mansion!"
……
Yan Changwu went to several township associations established by Fujianese in Quanzhang and Xia, and gathered some Fujianese who were in the capital, and in the name of the fellow township association, he met with some Fujian officials of grades six and seven. They eat and drink.
Although these guys are low-grade and well-informed, Yan Changwu deliberately or unconsciously inquired about the war in the north. Knowing that Yuan Chonghuan had ascended the throne from the new emperor, he was able to be reactivated. Denglai, Tianjin Military Affairs. Last year, Yuan Chonghuan returned to the capital to make a statement on the military affairs. Zhu Youjian summoned Yuan Chonghuan on the platform. Yuan Chonghuan claimed that he could recover Liao in five years.
Someone sneered and said: "Five years to return to the Liao? The barbarians outside the pass are so easy to pacify, and it will not be defeated by Saerhu!" (The Battle of Saerhu was in 1619, and Nurhachi defeated the Ming army here. The offensive and defensive momentum in the later Ming and Qing Dynasties is reciprocal)
"Don't look at his current scenery, nothing outside the customs, I dare say that sooner or later the barbarians outside the customs will provoke him, see what he does!" Those people see Yuan Chonghuan not pleasing to their eyes, it is best for him to be unlucky, no misfortune, but I don't want him to be unlucky, wild boar Everyone will be unlucky when the army hits the city of Peking!
Yan Changwu asked another person: Sun Yuanhua!
"That guy who believes in Western gods?" The officials disdain him again.
Why did you ask Sun Yuanhua specifically? This person is a first-rate cannon-making master in Ming Dynasty, but because of his religious belief, he was rejected by the officialdom.
Yuan Chonghuan came back and asked Sun Yuanhua to praise the military affairs of Liao Province. He has followed Yuan to the outside of Guan.
After knowing the news of the two people, having read it, and had eaten it, Yan Changwu left Peiping. He took his guard and went out of the city gate. He joined the subordinates outside the city, holding tea, milk candy and rum (so that About a hundred people, such as not going to the city to pay taxes) and medicinal materials, went straight to Shanhaiguan.
Shanhaiguan is located at the eastern end of the Ming Great Wall, the only place where the Ming Great Wall meets the sea. To the north is the western section of the Liaoxi Corridor, with a dangerous terrain, where the ancient Jieshi is located, so historians also call it the "Jieshi Road". Guancheng leans against Yanshan Mountain to the north and Bohai Sea to the south, so it is named Shanhaiguan.
Guancheng was built in the 14th year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty (1381), and has undergone expansion by many emperors. The perimeter of the city wall is more than 4,000 meters, the city is 14 meters high and 7 meters thick. The east wall is the main line of the Great Wall. There are four gates on the east, west, south and north sides of Guancheng. The east gate is the "Zhendongmen", which is the "first pass in the world", the west gate is the "Yingenmen", and the south gate is the "Wangyangmen" "The north gate is the "Weiyuan Gate", and there are gate towers on the four gates. Outside the four gates of Guancheng, there is an urn city, and the gates are opened on the side.
"The first level in the world! Hey!" Yan Changwu sneered: "Where is the world's first level in this world? How can there be any unbreakable pass? What do you think is the most stable?"
He asked Chen Hebin, Chen Hebin was young and intelligent, and cleverly said: "Human heart!"
"Bingo! I won the prize, but unfortunately there is no bonus!" Yan Changwu laughed and said, "How do you know that it is popular?"
"Because of our latest conscription!" Chen Hebin smiled and said: "At that conscription, the people of the Southeast Mansion sent their best children to the army!"
He was talking about conscription every summer and autumn. The conscription starts in July. The people of the Southeast Mansion are actively participating, scrambling to send the best children to the army, and everyone who can come will come for the army to choose.
Of course, the salaries of being a soldier are generous, and the publicity is also very effective, the key is that everyone has a reputation in their hearts!
For a long time, Yan Changwu has been a little lofty, and has little intimate relationship with the people. However, after the Taiwanese people came, they knew that their happy life was tied to this young master!
The hearts of the common people are very bright: "If he falls, everyone will be unlucky!"
Where is the share of the master's two tenants and eight households in the world?
Southeastern Prefecture has it!
The hearts of the people belong to him, and all power is used for him. This is the most powerful pass in the world!
In the past few years, we have also made some achievements.
……
Shanhaiguan’s defense is very urgent~www.wuxiaspot.com~ The security is very strict. The officers and soldiers who are guarding the customs will read and read their customs documents...very solid, from the documents of the Ministry of War of the Ming Dynasty, they will send three hundred flintlocks to Ningyuan Go to the front line to support Ning Yuan's defenders.
The documents are too real. If the intelligence bureau stationed in the capital can't even handle this, the northern branch of the intelligence bureau can be cancelled.
Knowing that they were supporting the Ning Yuan army, the guard officers and soldiers' expressions became much more relaxed, so they let them go, and even sent troops to see them off, but Yan Dashao declined.
As soldiers, they are more aware of the importance of Ningyuan City. If Ningyuan can't keep it, they will face the brutal savages, so it's not difficult to act.
Ningyuan (Xingcheng County, very close to Huludao) is the residence of Supervisor Yuan Chonghuan. It is more than 200 miles away from Shanhaiguan. The more you go north, the fewer merchants and merchants come and go. Moreover, all counties on the road are very depressed, and some small towns are early The city gate was closed, showing that the situation was tense.
Even if Ning Cheng did not fall, the cavalry of the wild men outside the Guan was terrible, and their reputation was far-reaching. Only a hundred cavalry came. If they could enter the city, the small city would be broken in seconds.
Except for the official army, their "caravan" can be regarded as a relatively large caravan. As a result, less than a hundred miles away, they found that they were following the tail.
Two cavalry dressed like Mongols adorned them, and soon disappeared.
After a few more miles, I saw dust rising from the northwest, and a group of Mongolian cavalry with bows and knives came galloping in!
The horse thief wants to rob pirates?
Zhang Shouyun stood up and said, "Ready to fight!"
There was a bang, everyone was ready with four shots!
Yan Changwu smiled, he opened a box next to him and put eight well-loaded pistols for him to use!
My Southeast Mansion is rich in money, boats and guns!
