Chapter 192: The cannon is here

Now on the ground of Dengzhou, everyone understood what they said after Jiang Feng led the two thousand officers and soldiers of Dengzhou camp - or his two thousand Ding Yaowu, his powerful patrol, all of them understood.

In the past, Dong Qianping, Bandenzhou was nothing. Now, the ground of Jiang Feng’s manor is from half of Dengzhou. Many tenant workers farmed under him and ate with him. The soldiers were well-armed, and they were not the kind of cowards who could earn military pay. Moreover, young people knew that they would be well-fed under Lord Jiang’s command, and they would eat well and have a strong momentum.

Even the left guards of Dengzhou were all given nearly two taels of silver in the first day. Where can I find such a good official and powerful general?

Although there was no plan to recruit new soldiers here in Jiang Feng, a young man had an inauguration at the gate of the yamen in the city for the first time. In the past, no one was willing to join the army to eat food.

Dengzhou tiger, these are the private names of Dengzhou military and civilians to Jiang Feng.

The Ministry of War did not mention how Jiang Feng originally managed the Qianhukou in Yantai Mountain. Logically speaking, it was not the Nine-sided Guards, and it was a burden for the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Revenue or the officers.

Dengzhou has poor land, and the more military households, the more it will not produce more harvests. Maybe it will have to pay for the money to buy grain, and no one wants to ask for more, so there is a lot of empty space in the garrison. Jiang Feng didn't know about these things. For him, the more soldiers and the larger the management area, it would be a good thing.

The problem is that he thinks so, and those people in the Ministry of War do not think so. They simply blurred the past, and Jiang Feng was not polite. Since he didn't say it clearly, he was the commander of the left guard of Dengzhou. The Dusi of Dengzhou Camp and the Qianhu District of Yantai Mountain, everyone was confused.

However, the Qianhu Institution of Yantai Mountain is extremely important to Jiang Feng. It can even be said that if it were not for the Qianhu Institution of Yantai Mountain, he would not be able to maintain such a strong army under his command.

Jiang Feng is now the commander of the garrison office and the Dengzhou Dusi, so he naturally has the power to recommend and appoint subordinates. Dengzhou Zuowei vacant had two thousand households, and there were many hundred households, and the general banner position. There were more than a dozen vacancies under the Thousand Household Institute of Yantai Mountain. Jiang Feng did not avoid relatives, and Yang Da and Luo Yi both had the rank of the garrison households, and temporarily served as the Thousand Households of the Thousand Households of the Dengzhou Zuowei.

The most important Yantai Shan Qianhou was under the jurisdiction of Zhang Liang, who was already a class of the general banner. In addition, he was from an orthodox military family, so his order was quickly approved and approved Zhang Liang as the Yantai Shan Qianhou Qianhou. Some people wanted such a useless place. The Ministry of War and the Shandong Commander Command were extremely willing.

Liu Shisan is only a small flag now, but in Jiangfeng Dengzhou Camp, there is a garrison. Although everyone is under the jurisdiction of many military households everywhere, their positions are all in Dengzhou Camp. There are four garrisons under the Dengzhou Dushi, namely Zhang Liang, Luo Yi, Yang Da and Liu Shisan.

Each of these four people was five hundred, while Zhang Liang and Luo Yi were half of the cavalry and infantry each. The men on Weishan Island were all under their command. Yang Da and Liu Shisan were all recruits from the craftsmen recruited by Tianjin Wei. Although there was no suspicion between each other now, they had to be prepared for it.

The Tidings were to be controlled by Jiang Feng himself, so although more than 100 Tidings had official titles on them, they were still directly controlled by him as Jiang Feng’s real guard armed forces, and more than a dozen hunters could not be related to the government for various reasons.

However, I moved into the city and lived around Jiang Feng's mansion. After all the matters were arranged, the "tiger" mentioned by the military and civilians of Dengzhou was in Qianhushou, Yantai Mountain. Jiang Feng did not stay in the city. He basically had to take fifteen days a month with Qianhushou in the garrison.

Leading troops personally is the minimum requirement for a general to control the troops. Although Jiang Feng is ignorant, such things seem to be instinctive and should have known them.

After nearly three months of struggle, the Xia family's fleet finally bought two cannons this time. The soldiers from Qianhu Institute of Yantai Mountain and Xia Cuiyu's friend delivered the news almost at the same time. To be honest, Jiang Feng felt a little lazy and bored after he truly settled in this position in Dengzhou.

In this era, no matter how he evaluates it, Jiang Feng is a very successful general. Not to mention his military achievements, but the many difficulties encountered by the military in the officialdom have never been a problem in front of Jiang Feng. He turns bad luck into good luck and everything goes well.

In just over two years, he went from a small Jinyiwei to a small military camp to command the commander of the guard station guarding Dengzhou. This speed can be called a rocket climb, but it cannot be said that there is a problem, because his military achievements are real and all the likes of the head are proved.

It is natural that he married the daughter of the governor as his wife, and his family is rich and he makes money every day, and he is close to Lu Bing's kind of trapped in advance.

All of this is extremely enviable, but Jiang Feng felt it was a little boring. He had ambitions and he didn't want to enjoy the wealthy life of the Ming Dynasty like this. A young man who was rebellious in the modern legal society traveled to this dynasty with a greater possibility.

Jiang Feng knew what his desires and goals were. What he wrote with his eyes closed was not so much a wish in his heart, but rather a reminder of himself.

But now, after Jiang Feng found that he had been in the position of commander of the garrison station, his path to continue moving forward suddenly disappeared. In other words, he didn't know how to make his position higher and expand his power more.

Jiang Feng, who was originally a rough man, suddenly felt inexplicably that if he was promoted and expanded his power slower, he would at least enjoy the fun of the process. Life would continue. Jiang Feng's daily pastime is to box with Zhang Liang and Liu Shisan in his own yard.

Liu Shisan, who had always been a little dissatisfied, but could not find the opportunity to compete with Jiang Feng, finally realized Jiang Feng's power. After being knocked down by Jiang Feng dozens of times in three days, he was finally convinced and completely understood why a group of tigers and wolves like Tieding were honestly like sheep in front of Jiang Feng.

Is this the cannon of this era? Jiang Feng looked at the two thick iron pipes in front of him, and could not suppress his excitement. Although the two things in front of him looked crude, they represented advanced huge firepower and overwhelming force.

Xia Qingjiao did not follow him this time. The head of the fleet was a middle-aged man in his forties. It is said that he was also an elder of the Xia family. Others called him Xia Wu. He also had the kind of bronze skin that was blowing wind and rain on the sea. Why is he quite gentle? It is quite different from the arrogant Xia Cuiyu reserved Xia Qingjiao.

Seeing Jiang Feng constantly watching the two cannons in the port, Xia Wu said with a smile:

"These two cannons are not easy to get. The third leader of our family has been wandering around Guangdong and Nanyang. Usually, those ghosts are smiling at our Xia family. When they heard that we were going to buy cannons, they all wanted to shake their heads down. They kept saying that it was a cannon that the country would not allow to sell and could not be sold."

Listening to Xia Wu's funny words, Jiang Feng was in a good mood after seeing the cannon, so he asked:

"Then how did you get these two guns?"

Xia Wu took out a gourd from his waist, opened the plug and gulped it a few times. The wine was filled with fragrance, obviously he was so excited that he took a few sips to moisten his throat, and then wiped his mouth and continued:

"Silver was smashed. Xia San's boss gave him five thousand taels at the beginning. Later, when he added ten thousand taels, the captain of the Franchise made the decision at that time. He unloaded two cannons on the ship that night, saying that they were damaged weapons and needed to sink into the sea to deal with them. He also matched them with ten shells, the son of the turtle. If there is any state secret, if the silver is smashed, you are willing to sell anything!"

Jiang Feng remembered clearly that the silver he gave Xia Qingjiao was more than 40,000 taels. Xia Wu said it without any scruples in his mouth and almost swallowed 20,000 taels of silver. However, Jiang Feng was not disgusted with it. If he had no way to do this kind of Western artillery, he would really not be able to do it. It would be a helpless thing to make money by others.

Then he went to the dock with several Xia family members from Cuiyulou. When he heard this, he had a fever on his face and hurried over to remind him that Xia Wu was touched by his juniors a few times and explained in a low voice. This was why he understood that he had said the wrong words. His bronze face had turned purple and turned black. He said without saying anything:

"It's not good to have cannons and shells alone. The third leader is still trying his best to find gunners. The ghosts on the ship are all soldiers. Although they are jealous of our money, they dare not come because of military law. It took more than a month to do so, but they didn't expect that someone would come to us and said they were willing to be artillery masters."

Among the craftsmen in Tianjin Wei, there are quite a few people who have come from the firearm manufacturing industry. This is also what Jiang Feng paid special attention to recruiting soldiers when he asked Tiedan to go to Tianjin Wei to recruit soldiers. If there are any craftsmen in Tieding's family who know how to manufacture firearms, it is the priority. This time, there are several old craftsmen who come to see the cannons, all of whom have cast cannons.

They were also happy to see the hunt. After Jiang Feng retreated, the old craftsmen surrounded him and started to study carefully. Jiang Feng heard Xia Wu's introduction at this time. He thought to himself, how could he have not seen it before, but he did not expect that on the beach behind Xia Wu, a sailor in rags stood up lazyly.
