Chapter 208 Newcomer

The sun had already set, and there were red clouds in the sky, like the thick blood in the city. The killing at the top of the city gradually stopped. Li Mingli was surrounded by corpses, and a lot of the warm blood was thrown on his face and body. He was completely conquered. Even if someone cut him with a knife, he would not be afraid.

There were corpses everywhere, and Li Mingli stared around. There were corpses on the top of the city, and there were corpses under the city, and there were corpses on the streets, including soldiers, officers, people, men, women, old people, children, and corpses were all over the ground. In many places, corpses were piled up, and blood kept flowing on the ground, dyeing the land black and red.

At this time, the Ming army lost its will to resist, and piles of Ming soldiers knelt down and surrendered, but the Later Jin soldiers were killed, and no one paid attention to it. They still used big swords and spears to slash and kill the Ming army row by row.

A woman was injured and crawled in the blood on the ground. A white armor rode her horse over. The woman wailed and asked for forgiveness. But the white armor probably didn't want to raise a disabled woman. He waved the one-handed sword in his hand. Li Mingli seemed to hear a crack in a long distance. He saw the woman's eyes wide open and her head flew high.

Massacres were everywhere in the city, and Li Mingli saw his comrades being slaughtered like animals.

"Ah..." Li Mingli shouted, as if there were blood and tears in his eyes, he roared at the sky. This kind of pain could not be understood by anyone without being there.

The guerrilla generals were killed in battle, and they were not as cowardly as Ding Bi.

The battlefield in Liaodong is like a touchstone, and cowards and good men have been tested.

At this time, the flag guards who were patrolling the city began to appear on the top of the city. They searched for the injured Jurchens in the corpse on the city and carried them down to treat them. Except for a few lucky people, most of them would die.

At the seriously injured Ming army, these flag cows took the sword and cut them down and killed them directly.

Li Mingli stared at him and waited for the last moment to arrive.

"This guy is not seriously injured." At this time, someone held Li Mingli's head with his hands and carefully studied his injuries. Li Mingli roared and scolded, but his voice was hoarse, and people didn't listen to what he was scolding.

"Take it down, pull out the arrow and apply some wounded medicine. Whether he can live depends on his life."

A few Han soldiers came over cursing and carried Li Mingli down the city.

The blood and fire in the city continued, and the Eight Banners soldiers came in on horseback. Xuan Dahan's imperial edict, because of Tieling's resistance, Nuerhaci decided to "kill all the soldiers inside and outside Tieling City" and stationed in the city for three days without a knife. Only a small number of lucky people were taken in by Han generals who were eager to supplement their subordinates.

Under the night, a raging fire burned in Tieling City, screams sounded one after another, and there were also the smug laughter of the Jurchens. Li Mingli was carried away, and tears mixed with blood and tears were shed from the corners of his eyes.

...

In late August, another team of archers composed of about 300 miners rushed to the Daliangshan Inspection Department's headquarters.

From June, Zhang Han started to look for places, then selected addresses, wait for public, literary and seal letters, and officially started construction, then built barracks and workshops, repair training school grounds, and then to eighth

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page) Months, the entire camp is already very similar.

With these new miners, the archer team has nearly a thousand people, and it looks like they are divided into two divisions.

Zhang Han used the excuse that his inspection territory was close to the mountains. In the past two years, there were many refugees and many joined the bandits. The power of bandits is different now, and the number of archers has increased dozens of times to the normal value.

Normally, a patrol inspector must recruit archers. Dozens of people in Taiping are enough, and there are only two or three hundred people who are not peaceful. However, Zhang Han recruited nearly a thousand people.

Li Shouxin put down his package and opened his mouth wide to look at the situation in front of him.

The person who brought them here was Sun Jingting, and some of the studsmen from Yusheng followed along with him to take care of them. The studsmen were all very strong and had very high force, so Li Shouxin and Zhang Chunniu were very envious.

Only when they got here did they realize how shallow their imagination of this camp was before.

The weather was cool and pleasant in the early autumn morning. The miners slept in the wilderness last night. Fortunately, they were covered with blankets and oil cloth under them. When they woke up in the morning, they shook off the dew. Everyone felt very comfortable and did not feel tired.

They walked all the way from Lingqiu, with dozens of people in groups, and the road was fully guided and the road was mainly mountain roads and small roads, which did not attract attention. Occasionally, some people would stop and watch these big-sleeved miners passing by in front of them.

Yesterday evening, they passed by several villages, causing numerous dog barking. Many ordinary people came out torches and asked who they were. When they heard that they were in Daliangshan Inspection Office as archers, many people showed sincere envious eyes.

At that time, Li Shouxin and Zhang Chunniu didn't know why, but now they understand.

Large buildings were built in very Qichu, and the blue brick and tile houses in Yishui were built. On both sides of the road they entered the camp were large grazing areas, with herds of cattle and sheep placed in the wild.

This land was bought by Zhang Han, and the original land in Lijiazhuang was abandoned and alfalfa was planted. This thing is easy to plant and the yield is high. The cattle and sheep raised are mainly to increase nutrition to the soldiers.

The most common ones are pigs. The large pig pens are full of large fat pigs raised in captivity. When the miners came here, they were feeding them. The people hired in the surrounding villages were doing their jobs. There were also some refugees working. In addition to the pig pen, they were also raising a lot of chickens.

The miners didn't know that in addition to these in front of them, there were many fish ponds, and more than a dozen farms around them raised chickens and pigs for them.

Everyone was calling Zhang Han a prodigal son and had never heard of these foods for the soldiers.

There are more than 900 people, and at least three or four taels of meat are guaranteed to be consumed a day. Several pigs and dozens of chickens have to be killed in a day. Without these large-scale farms in front of you, all villages in a radius of ten miles are not enough for the archers here to eat.

"Did everyone drool?" A short black man, wearing a gray robe, and the belt around his waist was very tight, making him look thin and his shoulders look wide. Although he is not tall, he is very energetic and feels very explosive, has great strength, and is very neat.

Such a man is a typical tiger

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page) The back is bee-backed and the body contains incomparable strength.

The expression was also cold and solemn, but there was a little eager light in his eyes, which made people feel that it was not that cold.

"Sun Heizi..."

Li Shouxin subconsciously wanted to scream, but soon swallowed the cry back.

There must be many people among the miners who recognize Sun Yao, and there was a commotion in the team.

The one who came was Sun Yao. He also had a short gray robe, short boots, three copper buttons on his cuffs, and a standard archer uniform. The only difference from ordinary soldiers was that he had the logo of the captain of the flag on his chest. The team officer had a flag gun, and the captain of the flag was a waving military flag, which was easy to recognize and vivid.

The deputy director always has a silver horizontal bar, two hundred and two, the deputy director always has three, and the general secretary of the department is a silver star.

In Zhang Han, these signs must be used to distinguish the upper and lower levels of officers. During training, it has been clearly stipulated that no one can disobey the iron military law when obeying the command of higher-level officers during wartime.

The biggest flaw of the Ming army is that it is not well-trained. In fact, there is also a set of ways to identify generals and officers in the Ming army, but Zhang Han does not intend to adopt it.

During the miners' journey, they have been instilled with common sense of obeying military discipline and identifying officers as much as possible. Li Shouxin has recognized Sun Yao as a flag captain.

"Everyone must have many people recognize me as Sun Heizi." Sun Yao smiled. His face looked even more ugly than not. After laughing, Sun Yao continued: "But this title is a thing of the past. Now I am the captain of the archer and flag of the inspector's department. I can take thirty-seven people under my command. I will take you to the military camp to report first. Remember to raise your head and shout loudly when you name it. No other words are allowed. If the commander speaks, you will only answer yes and not say more unless you are particularly allowed... Do you all understand?"

"There are so many rules..." Zhang Chunniu murmured in a low voice.

There were several people who muttered like him, and most miners answered yes as well as in a neat voice as possible.

"Very good." Sun Yao's eyes flashed across Zhang Chunniu's faces. He was already very powerful. Zhang Chunniu and others couldn't help but become nervous. Fortunately, Sun Yao didn't say anything, nodded and asked everyone to follow him and walk forward together.

"These things, as well as meat, rice and noodles bought from the people, were all bought by our inspector, that is, Zhang Dongzhu of Yusheng. The archer said that it was raised by the inspection department. In fact, the imperial court had never published a piece of money, and our inspector did not ask for it... Lord Zhang, that is, Zhang Dongzhu, has money, you will gradually understand this layer in the future..."

Sun Yao's hands were hanging on the left and right sides of his waist, swinging naturally. Li Shouxin looked at Sun Yao's posture and found that Sun Yao's walking speed was also relevant, and he was almost always moving at a constant speed.

He felt a little nervous. What place was this place? Not only was he dressed in such neat clothes, so he had so much meat to eat, but he also had such a large tiled house for people to live in, just to recruit some archers who could fight bandits? That Zhang Dongzhu's wealth is probably what he meant by this?
