Being able to get into the position of Tai'an prefect, even if his financial resources accounted for a large proportion, is enough to prove that Zeng Cheng's own IQ is not very low.

For example, when it came to inviting the rebel bandits from Huangcaoguan to station in Tai'an, Zeng Cheng was well prepared.

If Agui becomes the captain of Zhu Ni's transportation brigade, then Zengfutai will happily cut his braids and beat gongs and drums to welcome the king's division.

If Agui brought Zhu Ni's head back, then Zeng Futai would have killed all the rebel bandits who entered the city.

Anyway, regardless of whether Zhang Jia and Agui could win, Zeng Futai felt that he would definitely not lose.

People who have similar ideas to Zeng Cheng include Dongchang Prefecture, Qingzhou Prefecture, Laizhou Prefecture, Dengzhou Prefecture in Shandong Province, Weihui Prefecture in Henan Province, Guide Prefecture in Henan Province, and a group of Qingtian lords from Xuzhou Prefecture in Jiangsu Province.

After all, the always-famous Fukang Anfu personally went out to suppress a trivial Bagua sect. Shandong Governor Mingxing and River Governor Chen Tailai led troops to suppress Zhu Xiaosong, but could not suppress him. Later, Chen Tailai rebelled, and his father-in-law

Wang Duoerji and Zuodu Yushi Asiha even broke into the two thousand firearms camp, and the momentum created by the Hubei White Lotus Sect was also quite huge...

The Tatar Qing Dynasty's so-called illustrious military power and Qian De's so-called perfect martial arts, seems to be just that?

Uncle Li once said that if the people's hearts are broken, it will be difficult to lead the team.

The successive failures in suppressing the bandits have made all the prefects of the Qing Dynasty anxious, and the leading generals with poor backgrounds have their own little thoughts.

As a result, before the imperial envoy Zhang Jia Agui, who personally led the troops to suppress the rebellion, had even reached Anjiazhuang, hundreds of his green battalion soldiers had disappeared inexplicably.

This gave Agui, the imperial envoy, a headache.

To counter a rebellion, naturally you have to lead a large army to exterminate the rebels. If the green battalion under his command continues to defect at the current rate, it is estimated that by the time Anjiazhuang is reached, there will be only 30,000 soldiers left in the green battalion under his command.

The sun comes out from the west, and it’s a shame.

When that time comes, no matter how reluctant I am, I have to become Zhu Ni's transportation captain.

Otherwise, Agui could become the chief scholar of Wuying Palace in Tatar. After careful consideration, I really asked Agui to come up with an idea.

With a team of ten people, set up a corps commander, with ten troops as the flood season, with the flood chief, with ten floods as the camp, with a thousand generals, one person defectes and kills the corps commander, one corps defectes, kills the flood chief. In short, it is to implement the responsibility system.

.

For those Green Camp soldiers who had defected before, Agui's approach was to write directly to the government in their hometown, ordering the government to capture those deserters and implicate the three tribes to be punished.

As soon as this method of sitting together came out, everyone from the garrison to the generals to the generals increased their patrols and vigilance, and the defection situation of the Green Camp soldiers suddenly improved.

Agui finally felt relieved and continued to lead the green battalion to Anjiazhuang.

But as they walked, seeing that they were almost arriving at Anjiazhuang, Agui felt something was wrong.

On both sides of the road, there are many large and small wheat straw piles and corn stalks!

As a bachelor who raised the five flags to the three flags, Agui had experienced hard times before and had some understanding of the lives of ordinary people. It was this understanding that made Agui feel from the bottom of his heart.

Something is wrong.

Wheat straw and corn poles are not valuable things, but they are good things for making fires and keeping warm. I haven't seen many of them along the way before. Why are they willing to leave these things in piles here and there in Anjiazhuang?

Throw it on the ground?

Could it be said that the people in Anjiazhuang are rich enough to burn charcoal for heating?

Not to mention that Agui didn't believe this kind of nonsense, he wouldn't believe it even if He Shen and Zhongtang were brought over!

This sudden abnormal situation made Agui wary. Even though the spies sent out before did not report anything unusual, Agui still ordered the army to stop first.

…

Zhu Xiaosong was lying on a pile of wheat straw, carrying a front-loaded rifled flintlock gun in his right hand, and holding a telescope captured from the Tatars' concubine Nawangdorji's army in his left hand, looking at Zhang Jia in the distance from time to time.

Agui's army.

The distance was too far, and Agui happened to be hiding in the middle of the army. With the flintlock gun in Zhu Xiaosong's hand, there was no way to snipe Zhangjia Agui.

But, just because you can't rely on a flintlock rifle to snipe Agui doesn't mean that Zhu Xiaosong can't snipe Zhangjia Agui.

Although the artillery snatched from the Tatar concubine Nawang Dorji has no scope and the shooting accuracy is not very good, it has a single shot and will die as long as it can hit, and the range is relatively long, so it is barely enough.

Can be considered a sniper.

As for the shooting accuracy of the red cannon, it’s too impressive...

Mr. Lu Xun once said that if precision is not enough, firepower must be used.

Although the red cannon uses solid projectiles and its shooting accuracy is similar to that of Mao Xiong's R-2. It relies on faith to increase the hit rate, but more than a dozen cannons and more than twenty cannons are aimed at Zhang Jia Agui at the same time.

, it’s almost like a dozen or twenty blind cats rounding up a dead mouse, one of them must be able to catch it, right?

That's what Zhu Xiaosong thought, and of course that's what he did.

Seeing Zhang Jia Agui on the opposite side ordering the Tatar officers and soldiers to stop, as if they were going to send people to search the wheat straw piles and corn pole piles on both sides of the road, Zhu Xiaosong put down the telescope in his hand, picked up the flintlock gun, and first fired at the people next to him.

Ke Zhiming gave the order to light the fire, and then pulled the trigger.

"boom!"

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

With the sound of a gunshot, Meng Lianggu's "rebels" opened up the stacks of wheat straw and corn stalks, and the red cannons that had been ambushed in advance also revealed their slightly ferocious barrels, and each solid projectile also appeared.

They scrambled to get out of the thick and long barrel and flew towards the green camp led by Zhang Jia Agui.

Zhangjia Agui was horrified. He waved the sword in his hand crazily and shouted: "Meet the enemy! Meet the enemy!"

But before Agui's green soldiers could figure out what was going on, the mines that had been laid in advance exploded one after another.

In order to ensure that the explosion range could reach Agui, Zhu Xiaosong specially ordered people to increase the range of landmine planting.

From Agui's point of view, there was an explosion several miles ahead, an explosion dozens of steps ahead, and an explosion hundreds or even several miles behind him.

The successive explosions immediately stunned Agui's Eight Banners soldiers and green camp soldiers. Any formations to meet the enemy or meritorious deeds in suppressing bandits were all violently exploded and disappeared, even if Agui shouted threats.

The defeat of Green Camp cannot be tolerated.

Therefore, seeing this absurd farce in front of him, even Zhu Xiaosong, who had been mentally prepared for it, was shocked.

Although he had known for a long time that I, Taqing, stretched my crotch, and also knew that Eight Banners and Green Camp were no better than trash, but Zhu Xiaosong never expected that I, Taqing, would stretch my crotch to such an extent, and that Eight Banners and Green Camp were actually like this

……waste?

More than 40,000 Green Camp soldiers, plus more than 10,000 Eight Banners soldiers, and more than 50,000 officers and soldiers were defeated by more than a dozen artillery pieces and hundreds of landmines.

Damn it, using the word "waste" to describe the Tatar officers and soldiers, does it insult the word "waste"?

However, Zhu Xiaosong can understand it to some extent. After all, if we, the Qing Dynasty, had not stretched our legs, we would not have been missed by all the great powers. If our Taqing army had not stretched our legs, we would not have had the Treaty of Nerchinsk first, and then the Qing Dynasty.

The Treaty of Ketu, followed by the Treaties of Maguan, Xinchou and others.

Zhu Xiaosong sighed, pushed aside the corn pole covering his body, and walked towards Agui step by step, holding a ghost-headed sword.

Agui's luck was incredible. Even with the intensity of firepower from more than a dozen red cannons and hundreds of landmines, Agui was only slightly injured.

Looking at Zhu Xiaosong and a group of rebels approaching step by step, Agui wanted to kill the enemy, but his left leg was injured by a mine fragment. The pain was heartbreaking when he moved even a little bit, let alone raising a knife to fight.

Agui endured the excruciating pain and slowly stood up on the sedan chair. He wanted to pick up the knife and fight Zhu Xiaosong, but Ke Zhiming took a step forward and knocked the knife out of Agui's hand, and then retreated to

Zhu Xiaosong was carefully guarding Agui.

Agui suddenly became furious, pointed at Zhu Xiaosong and cursed: "Despicable villain! Today I fall into your hands, whether you want to kill or behead me, please do as you please!"

Zhu Xiaosong laughed loudly, walked up to A Gui, and patted A Gui's face with the knife in his hand: "Look at you, how come you are so ready to kill and cut into pieces? We are good people, neither

I will kill you, but I won’t cut you into pieces.”

After finishing speaking, Zhu Xiaosong told Zhu Erdan, Ke Zhiming and others in a waning mood: "Clean the battlefield and send all the seriously injured Eight Banners gentlemen on their way. Take care of the remaining surrendered and lightly injured ones and take them back to the base area."

After Zhu Erdan, Ke Zhiming and others agreed, Zhu Xiaosong continued to give instructions: "By the way, remember to leave one alive to report back and see who will take over as the next transportation captain!"

Agui became even more angry and was about to rush forward to fight Zhu Xiaosong, but was kicked to the ground by Ke Zhiming.

Ke Zhiming stepped on Agui's back and said to Zhu Xiaosong: "Master, why don't we just kill all these slaves?"

Zhu Xiaosong laughed loudly and asked: "Kill them, and you will dig mines for us?"

"After careful screening, all the men from the Eight Banners will be sorted according to the establishment of the Eight Banners. Later, the men from the upper three banners will be allowed to mine, and the men from the lower five banners will be the foremen."

"According to the sins committed by their ancestors, let them work in the mines for ten years. After the expiration of the term, they will be released without charge. At that time, it is up to them whether they want to stay or return to become slaves."

Ke Zhiming couldn't help but glance at Agui, who had a hopeful look on his face, and the Eight Banners gentlemen around Agui.

These silly things don’t really think that they can be released without charge after working in a mine for ten years, right? What the hell is a mine! Instead of going to a mine to mine, it would be better to be hacked to death by me!

Zhu Xiaosong glanced at Agui again and said, "Let our imperial envoy go as well. We said we want him to be the captain of the transportation team for us, so we have to keep our word."

"As for these Green Camp soldiers..."

After pondering for a while, Zhu Xiaosong said: "Follow the old rules."

Ke Zhiming immediately responded with his hands raised: "Yes!"

The so-called old rule is to drag all the leaders from top to bottom to mine, and the remaining ordinary soldiers who are willing to rebel will first arrange a grievance meeting, and then someone will talk to these soldiers, and then they will learn from Meng Lianggu

discipline, and finally military training.

After a complete set of procedures, these soldiers have basically completed the transformation process.

Just like the original squad leader Li, since this guy chose to join Yuhuang Mountain and went through a whole set of procedures, he is now in the position of squad leader. He has taken the lead in the charge when facing encirclement and suppression by officers and soldiers several times in a row. He also treats the common people in daily life.

If you can fully abide by the three major disciplines and the seven points of attention, you will no longer be a government servant who is a soldier during the day and a bandit at night.

As for those who were unwilling to follow the rebellion against the Qing Dynasty, Zhu Xiaosong did not make things difficult for them. He did not beat, scold, or kill them, nor did he make things difficult for them. It would be fine even if they ran back to the Tatars and continued to serve as soldiers.

They are welcome to continue to be fully armed to suppress bandits next time, and they are also welcome to continue to surrender with their equipment next time.
Chapter completed!
