Chapter 287 Manchu's Musket

What is a coat slave? In fact, this is a characteristic of the Qing Dynasty.

It appeared in Liaodong. These people were defeated Han soldiers, or Han people who were taken over by the Qing Dynasty. They were not qualified to become Manchus and could only be regarded as slaves.

Usually they farm at home or serve their master's family, but when war comes, they have to prepare weapons and follow their master to the battlefield.

Don’t think that these people have the same combat power as the Han people in the Pass. In Liaodong, they don’t know how many battles they have participated in. Their combat experience is no smaller than that of the Eight Banners Iron Cavalry.

After entering the capital, they should go out to fight, but these Qing masters were used to enjoying themselves and were even unwilling to let their slaves go to the battlefield.

If they leave, who will be comfortable to serve them, so they will be left in the capital.

The war situation across the country was very good at that time, and Dorgon was unwilling to offend the Qing Dynasty's relatives because of this matter, but now this situation is no longer possible. If you don't let your slaves go, you will have to go to the battlefield yourself.

"The Regent, I don't have the ability to pull these people out of the palaces of the great princes. Now they are all very shameless. I hope the Regent can help me pull them out."

These people are indeed capable of fighting, but pulling them out of the royal palace would be equivalent to offending a royal palace.

If you want to gather these 30,000 people together, Prince Zheng will offend all the royal palaces in the capital. Even if he wins a battle in Shandong, can he still survive after returning to the court? Don’t these people wear them for Prince Zheng?

Dorgon looked at Prince Zheng's face. If he didn't agree, this old guy might have something else to do.

Although he offended half of the royal palace, Dorgon had to do this, otherwise no one would guard Shandong within half a month, the Ming army would have to enter Hebei.

"You should prepare your own affairs and leave these slaves to me. I will send them to the army on time. Although I have not practiced in the past two years, they have not put down their skills. They are definitely an elite when fighting. In addition, our construction office has also started to make muskets, and I will also bring you some of them, which may help you on the battlefield."

After hearing Dorgon's words, the people below immediately became interested. Of course, they were not interested in how Dorgon captured slaves.

What they are most interested in is why the Southern Ming court was able to beat us? Isn’t it because of these muskets? If we had these things, how would the Southern Ming court be our opponent?

After Duoduo was defeated in Shandong, Dorgon started to do this, but he handed over everything to Fan Wencheng. Fan Wencheng recruited talents in the capital and the surrounding areas, which was to support the Creation Office.

In addition to the drawings left by the Ming Dynasty, several broken muskets were also found from the battlefield, and these people worked overtime to imitate them.

After some research, these people also found a lot of muskets, but they had never tried it, so naturally they didn't know how powerful they were.

When Dorgon said it at this time, the symbolic meaning is greater than the actual meaning, that is, let these people see it, don’t think that only the Southern Ming court has these things, and we also have these things in our hands.

"I wonder how many muskets are there?"

Looking at the musket in front of Dorgon, from the outside, it was quite nice and smooth.

According to Prince Zheng’s original idea, more requirements were required, such as allocating 8,000 cavalry from Ajige’s hands.

But after seeing the muskets on the table, Prince Zheng did not mention this matter. As long as he gave himself enough muskets, what would those cavalry do?

Prince Zheng also had subordinates in the army. When Shandong was defeated in a crushing defeat, his subordinates escaped by chance and described the actual situation on the battlefield in Shandong to him.

So he also knew the power of muskets. If there were enough numbers at this moment, he would definitely be able to compete with the people of the Southern Ming court.

Prince Zheng thought so in his heart. If our muskets can offset their muskets, it means that both of us have reached a starting line.

At that time, they were trying their own real skills, and the advantages of the Eight Banners Iron Cavalry of the Qing Dynasty were revealed. On the other hand, after the Southern Ming Dynasty, their personal abilities were really poor without muskets and cannons.

"It is currently in the experimental stage, and the number is not very large, about a thousand."

After hearing this number, Prince Zheng could not hide his disappointment in his eyes, but it was better to have it than not.

Prince Zheng felt a little uncomfortable. If he had known this was the situation, he would not have established an alliance with Haoge.

Now it’s better. Not only did he not do anything to Dorgon, he and Haoge went to the battlefield first, and there was no way to echo the ones from south and north, so they were isolated by Dorgon.

Even if things were settled.

In the afternoon of that day, Dorgon personally led the imperial guards and took people from house to house to list.

These people were originally old families on the battlefield. Later, they entered the royal palace and became slaves and were also arrogant in the capital.

On the surface, they are slaves in the palace, but outside they are all masters. Now they are asked to go to the battlefield to fight, and there are a few who are willing to go. They have long since worn out their original murderous aura and are thinking about how to enjoy life.

Of course, Dorgon doesn't care about their situation or which royal palace you are behind. Now that he has decided on this matter, no one can come and say goodbye to him.

If someone dared to protect his slave, Dorgon's big sword would not show mercy. In the afternoon of that day, two Beizi's titles were beaten.

Prince Zheng had expected this a long time ago, so he would never dare to give this job next. Dorgon is the regent. Even if others hate him, they have to wait until this guy gets hurt before taking revenge.

Compared with Dorgon, he has to let Dorgon do this.

You should know that Gushan Beizi's title was second only to the prince and Beile in the Qing Dynasty. Some princes were just this kind of hindrance. It is conceivable how much obstacle Dorgon suffered during the recruitment process.
