When Eunuch Wei and Qian Baihua walked out of the palace, they both understood the emperor's thoughts.

Although there is no clear and meticulous plan yet, it has been confirmed that Wu Changchun is the corrupt bone, and he has made good use of it, and the traitor Li Yongfang has been tricked.

"Old Qian, think about it carefully and how to operate it to make the emperor happy." Eunuch Wei ordered with a sharp voice: "This time I was able to steal the credit from the Fufu Department, thanks to the information you obtained in Hechun Tower, which was the major case that was solved."

Qian Baihua bowed and replied: "You can save yourself a lot of money. You have to come up with a solution to share your worries for the long live and be the head of the factory."

Eunuch Wei laughed, reached out to pat Qian Baihua, and said, "The family is optimistic about you. You have also seen it today. The emperor is generous to reward the meritorious ministers."

After pausing, Mr. Wei sneered and said, "Now, besides the war in Liaodong and southwest, the emperor is worried about the corrupt officials below. You have also seen in Hechun Tower, how unbearable the guy on the surface is behind him."

Qian Baihua nodded vigorously and agreed with Wei Changgong's words. He said it was art of elegance, but many people visit prostitutes with low quality and disgusting.

Since the owner of Dong Factory, and Wansui is very attentive to pursuing the officialdom, there is no shortage of opportunities to make contributions, and there is no need to worry too much about the dominance of the sanctuary department.

Qian Baihua also understood the profound meaning of Wei Zhongxian’s promotion this time. As the Jinyiwei of the Fufu Department, although he is now at the Dongchang Factory, he is still separated by that layer.

This is also the limitation of the Dongchang. It is the eunuch who works as the factory owner, but eunuchs cannot be used below, so it is inconvenient to work! It is also a traditional operation of the Ming Dynasty, and the deep meaning of the emperor may be hidden in it.

Therefore, Wei Zhongxian also knew to win over the people below and make contributions to him.

Although he was the governor of the East Factory now, the power and work he had shocked all the officials. But he also knew very well that as a eunuch, all this came from the emperor's trust and gift.

If the emperor replaces him, will the job of the East Factory be paralyzed? The answer is obviously no. The person who really works is the people below, and the same is true if the factory supervisor changes to others.

It is precisely because Eunuch Wei realized that he was not irreplaceable that he worked harder and had the means to win over the people below.

It is normal to be a leader as a leader, and the emperor is not very good at dealing with it; but if you want to make friends with officials, Eunuch Wei knew that the emperor could kill him with just a handwritten letter.

As the governor of the East Factory, he could not cover the sky with one hand in the East Factory. Eunuch Wei had a clear understanding of this. He firmly believed that there must be the emperor's eyes and ears in the East Factory, and loyalty was his only way out.

If the emperor wants to crack down on corruption, he will investigate the assets of those officials clearly; if the emperor wants to fight against officials and businessmen, Eunuch Wei urged his subordinates to investigate and investigate.

He pointed east and pointed west and went west. When the emperor wanted to deal with it, his Eunuch Wei rushed forward like a mad dog and bit him.

Eunuch Wei was not ashamed of this, but instead worked harder. Because he saw through the emperor's temperament, if you don't let the emperor down, the emperor naturally would not let go of the donkey and kill the donkey, and would give you a good end.

Today in the Qianqing Palace, the emperor generously gave him the reward from the governor Yin and Tongzhi, so that he could be more respectful in front of his subordinate Qian Baihua.

Of course, the division of labor between the master and the outside is still unchanged, and the Wu Changchun case was handed over to the Pacification Office. But this is no longer important. Eunuch Wei's purpose of robbing merit was achieved and he won the prize from the emperor.

In the Ganqing Palace, Zhu Youxiao asked someone to summon Luo Sigong, and he picked up Wu Changchun's confession and studied it carefully.

Zhu Youxiao was not so happy after cracking this spy case.

Even if Wu Changchun sneaked into the Ministry of War and received military newspapers, it would be difficult to pass it on in time.

But this guy was able to open the way with money and get the appointment of the Ministry of War in an impersonation, which made the emperor angry.

Ji Yingcheng and others deserve to die. Zhu Youxiao narrowed his eyes and had already decided the fate of Ji Yingcheng and others.

As for Wu Changchun, he will keep his life for the time being, send it to Nalan Zhongming, and reveal the news to the Later Jin Dynasty. It should be able to make things difficult for Li Yongfang, a big traitor?

Zhu Youxiao's calculations were settled, and he showed a sneer and threw the confession onto the desk casually.

I was about to get up and leave the hall to relax, but Zhu Youxiao glanced at the half-opened question book on the desk, and sat back helplessly.

Is the title written by Chen Tingyang or the pros and cons of expanding sea transportation and reducing canal transportation? Obviously, Chen Tingyang has conducted further investigation and research and is more detailed than the last time "Please Advocate a Small Trial of Sea Transportation Memorial".

At the beginning, the court held that most ministers believed that "there is no better than shipping to Liaoning", which means that they agreed to use shipping to transport food and food to Liaodong.

A part of the business volume was divided from the canal transportation, and Zhu Youxiao believed that the goal had been basically achieved. Suddenly stopping the canal transportation was a steadily cut, but gradually reducing it was a stable strategy.

However, Chen Tingyang's re-reported memorial made Zhu Youxiao think deeply and think about whether it would be feasible to reduce the canal transportation. He had to treat it carefully when it involved the jobs of tens of millions of people.

Moreover, to reform the canal transport, we must first start with the canal transport officials, which also involves the prefectures and counties along the Cao Road, and the dethrone or mobilization of a large number of officials.

I am not ready yet! Zhu Youxiao has been thinking for a long time, shook his head, and helplessly put Chen Tingyang's question book away.

As he got up and walked out of the palace, Zhu Youxiao walked down the steps casually, admiring the flowers, plants and trees planted in the yard.

The steps behind her were light, and Fan Xiaohui followed her. She had already received Li Chengcheng's guidance. She knew that the emperor was thinking at this time, so she should not disturb her easily, and just follow her quietly and listen to the instructions.

Zhu Youxiao really didn't care who was following behind him. He walked and stopped, and his eyes seemed to be watching flowers and grass, but his thoughts were already flying outside.

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

The changes in the form of war, the opponents became stronger and stronger. This was what Jiannu felt over the past year, and the generals of the Later Jin army had a clearer understanding of this.

Sahalian narrowed his eyes. The smell of gunpowder blew in the wind was not strong, but it still made him feel uncomfortable. The key was that the battle had been fighting for half an hour, but it made him angry and disappointed.

The smoke was blown by the wind. Amid the dense gunshots, Sahalian saw the twinkling fire again, and saw the people falling down on his side, and heard screams and wails coming from time to time.

In front, three small Ming army formations were distributed within a distance of 100 meters, resisting the wave of Jiannu's attack.

In the distance, the sound of gunfire, the flashing fire, the loud bangs, and the sound of horse hooves showed the fierceness of another battle.

The ability to separate the Ming army that was moving forward was a successful implementation of Jiannu's plan. This was also the plan set by Dai Shan to take the initiative to retreat.

Although the Ming army's chariot formation was strong and the range of artillery was shocking, it was not omnipotent.

Due to the limitations of roads and terrain, it is impossible to complete the task of relying on the chariot array to advance forward in the vast and undulating fields.

Dai Shan also made this idea and divided the troops into several thousand men during the retreat, preparing to take advantage of the gaps in the Ming army's operations to conduct interspersed and divided attacks.

The timing was finally captured by Daishan the next day. Three Ming army squads acted as front-line and advanced forward into this rugged hilly area.

This is also the helplessness of the Ming army. We can’t carry the chariot forward, right?

Of course, the 1,800 Ming army abandoned their chariots and prepared for attack, set up combat configurations with spears and muskets, and dozens of cavalrymen who acted as early warnings.

When the hidden Jiannu ran away and launched an attack, the cavalry sent a warning message and informed the large group of troops behind. The three Ming troops quickly favored the terrain and set up a defensive formation waiting for assistance.

There were no chariots, no artillery, just a few hundred muskets, but they supported them for so long. Although there were quite a few casualties, they caused greater damage to Jiannu.

Because the terrain was not conducive to the chariots, it also hindered the cavalry. The three Ming troops occupied the mounds and the woods were facing Jiannu who dismounted and fought.

Sahalian now suspected that this was a flaw revealed by the Ming army on purpose, luring his own army to siege and take the opportunity to kill and injure the soldiers of this side.

Until now, even if all three Ming troops were eliminated, Sahalian felt that his army was at a disadvantage. It was not the same as the casualties, nor was it the wind and clouds he had imagined.

To put it bluntly, in the plan, the battle was definitely not fought in this way, which was completely beyond Sahalian's expectations and exceeded Daishan's expectations.

Taking up a local military advantage, it should have been to quickly and simply eliminate the isolated enemies, giving the Ming army a psychological shock.

"This must be the elite of the Ming army. The Ming army deliberately sent us to attack?" Sahalian had such a guess, but he was still uncertain. He looked at the generals who hoped to be confirmed.

The general blinked his eyes and said with a guess: "Are you dead soldiers? There is such a possibility."

Boom, boom, boom... As if to confirm Sahalian's speculation, the besieged Ming army used weapons that Jiannu had never seen before.

Under the cover of comrades in front, a row of black and blue smoke-filled iron lumps flew out and smashed towards the enemy group that was attacking in front.

The explosion of fires followed one by one, and the smoke rose, and Jiannu screamed again.

Sahalian's guess is correct. These three teams of Ming army are indeed the most powerful elites in the Ming army. They are not only strong and fearless, but also equipped with hair-pulp grenades that are not large in number.

As mentioned earlier, grenades have been developed long ago, but the Gunpowder Weapons Bureau has never regarded it as the focus of production, which is also what Zhu Youxiao means.

The reason is very simple. The black gunpowder grenade is a bit too heavy and difficult to use if it is not a strong and tall soldier. Although it is easy to defend the city, it is easier to create thunder in the sky.

Therefore, the number of black gunpowder grenades is not large, and it is mainly distributed to Liao Town and Dongjiang Town as a trial-type individual weapon.

Zhu Youxiao thought so, but the front-line officers thought this was good. The key was that it was easy to carry, and grenade vehicles and artillery could not be accompanied by infantry at any time.

Therefore, the Ming army and Dongjiang headquarters both selected tall and strong soldiers to form elite troops based on the use of grenades.

These troops have experienced battle formations, but this is the first time that they have used grenades in actual combat, except for training.

As for the death war, although it sounds bad, it really has that meaning. And this is the cruelty of war, which cannot be said to be cruel and ruthless.

Wars are the only purpose of winning, and it makes sense that the so-called "benevolence is not in charge of troops".

Most of the Jiannu were cavalrymen. Although they could not rush to the Ming army with strict battle formations, they were very mobile and came and went like the wind, which really made the Ming army feel a headache.

Therefore, Kong Youde and Zhang Pan made such arrangements. They used elite troops to highlight, attract Jiannu to attack, take the opportunity to break the deadlock, and break through the line of Xinjin and Hongzuibao.

If the goal is achieved, it can form a front-back attack on Daishan's troops together with friendly troops landing in Fuzhou.

If Jiannu did not move, the prominent Ming army could occupy the mountains in the central part of the New Jin Dynasty and even the northern part, thus laying a nail to help the main force continue to move forward.

Now, while attacking the prominent isolated Ming army, Jiannu blocked the main force of the Ming army to help, both places were fighting fiercely.

Such a result is actually what the Ming army hopes. If the cavalry abandons its strengths and fights with infantry, is it an opponent of the Ming army with a clear advantage in weapons and equipment?

The bodies of the people and horses fell across and out of the Ming army's defensive formation. The Ming army also suffered a lot of casualties, and the formation continued to shrink, but they still resisted tenaciously on their respective positions.

Although they are elite, they also have combat experience. Before the operation, they were still ordered to die by harsh voices and emotions. They would rather die than escape than fight to the end. Otherwise, they would be engaged in military law and implicate their family members.

Of course it is stupid to escape. Can two legs run through the pursuit of Jiannu's cavalry? Surrender is also undesirable. These officers and soldiers from Liao people all know about Jiannu's cruelty and tyranny.

If you work hard, you can also earn preferential treatment for your family without worries about food and clothing, as well as the 100 taels of silver promised by the superiors before the action.

"Let's fire!" Feng Datie blew a sharp whistle. Amid the dense gunshots, Jiannu, who was rushing forward, kept falling down in the splashing blood.

A moment later, another long sharp whistle sounded, and the muskets burst out again, and as the smoke filled the smoke, screams and wailing sounds one after another.

The fast firing rate of the flintlock rifle and the tight arrangement of the team greatly enhance the density and sustainability of the firepower, which was something that Jiannu, who was attacking, did not expect.

"Kill!" The front row of soldiers shouted excitedly, stretching out the spears and bayonets in their hands to block the enemies that had already rushed to the front.

The musket fired for a moment, and a row of grenades flew out again and fell into the enemy's crowd. Another burst of shrapnel was stirred up and smoke filled with smoke.

The close defense of the Ming army narrowed the attack. Although the Jiannu had a large number of people, some of them could not be used, and the number of people was not fully utilized.

However, the Ming army was also constantly paying casualties, and its defensive formation continued to shrink to maintain the density of the musket against the enemy surface and exert the power of the musket shooting.
