The understanding of Liaodong by Huang Taiji is obviously much more than that of Fan Wencheng …
According to the news from Huang Taiji, more than one million Han Chinese have planted grain in the arable land of Liaodong, and these grains can get an unprecedented harvest in two months at most … Even if one person harvests a load of grain, it will be more than ten million loads of grain.
When the time comes, it’s absolutely no problem to get back millions of loads of grain in a short time without saying much about the powerful raid and looting ability of the late Jin fighters … Even if millions of loads of grain are let go, it’s enough for the late Jin to eat for a year.
Of course, if we are lucky enough to build a logistics base of Liaodong Tiger and Leopard Army, the capture can not only meet the needs of tens of thousands of people, but also capture a lot of firearms and equipment that are urgently needed in the latter. After the further expansion, the firearms units of the Jin Army will be prepared for the future counterattack and rise …
This temptation is obviously very big for Huang Taiji. As soon as Fan Wencheng’s voice falls, Huang Taiji’s dim eyes will shoot two things out again.
Then he replied to Fan Wencheng, "We seized weapons workshops on the battlefield, copied them ourselves, smuggled them, and bought them … After that, the 8 Jin Army firearms force has expanded to fifteen thousand people … Three thousand musketeers were equipped on the battlefield, and the latest firearms of the Butch Army were seized …"
"In addition to muskets, each of the fifteen thousand firearms troops is also equipped with five imitation grenades …"
"The artillery army is equipped with more than two hundred and fifty small-caliber guns such as the red cannon and the Buddha Lang machine …"
"Khan can definitely say that in this year, China Khan has put the limited financial and material resources of Xu Jin Guo into this firearms force …"
Fan Wencheng doesn’t know much about this firearms unit that takes orders from Huang Taiji.
So when he listened to Huang Taiji’s introduction, he was directly stunned.
He didn’t expect that Huang Taiji, who has always been riding and shooting, would attach so much importance to the firearms force and equip it with so many advanced firearms …
It can be said that this 15,000-person firearms unit is not powerful enough compared with the Tiger and Leopard Army, and the number of firearms, especially heavy artillery, in the same number of troops has already surpassed that of the Tiger and Leopard Army …
In this way, it is necessary for this firearm unit to have a certain fighting capacity and the ability to fight against the Tiger and Leopard Army in World War I.
If it’s not worth it properly, this firearms unit may be able to directly wipe out several and tiger and leopard musket regiments on the battlefield like the court’s Ganning New Army …
Even before Fan Wencheng could react from the surprise brought by Huang Taiji, the sound of Huang Taiji had reached its ear again …
"In addition to this firearms unit composed of Han people, a large number of Mongols were added. After that, the main force of the flag in the latter Jin army was restored to a total strength of 50,000 people …"
"In addition to the yellow and yellow flags, each flag is 10,000 fighters, and the remaining flag has 5,000 elite cavalry. These cavalry are equipped with two powerful grenades to break through and kill in the battlefield in addition to the original equipment …"
"PSST ….." I heard that Fan Wencheng couldn’t help but gasp even if he was prepared in his heart …
He didn’t think that it was so difficult for Houjin to be blocked. In front of him, he sweated and Huang Taiji still didn’t forget to prepare his horse in just one year … In less than one year, Houjin Army was discovered to be so powerful.
Although there is no threat in front of the powerful firearms force of the fifty thousand fighters and tigers and leopards.
But with this 50,000 fighters, there is one thing that can be done at least, that is, forcing the butch army in Liaodong to spread out and the butch army dare not leave the county to get together.
And this also gives a divide-and-conquer opportunity to the fifteen thousand musketeers of the post-8 Jin Army.
A very bold idea came to Fan Wencheng’s mind at this thought.
After analyzing the feasibility of this bold idea, Fan Wencheng was very surprised to find that the whole layout should be properly arranged without any accident. After 8 Jin J mobilized all the main forces, the whole Liaodong was likely to be looted by 8 Jin J.
In this way, it will be very amazing that 8 Jin Army may get the results in this looting.
Chapter seven hundred and fifty-five Smuggling
With a full face of surprise, Huang Taiji’s face directly reveals a very approved expression and expresses his own thoughts and opinions …
Soon a huge battle plan for Liaodong to Liaodong butch army will appear in front of two people …
Make sure that there are no loopholes in the whole plan, and then Huang Taiji directly decides, "There are still two months before the autumn harvest, so when we attack, we will decide two months later, but we must make full preparations for the war in these two months … Of course, the importance of confidentiality is not much to say. Before the war, we must never let Liaodong butch army notice …"
When Hou Jin did his best to prepare for the expedition two months later.
A seagoing ship docked at Yangzhou wharf directly.
A few people in a large number of people who go on a sea boat will not look at it for a second time. In the eyes of young people, they are taken away by two people and disappear into the vast sea of people.
Half an hour later, these middle-aged people appeared in Yangzhou, a set of ordinary but the courtyard.
See people already in the courtyard, such as a few middle-aged people directly to meet out a face of excitement cried …
"Adult … you finally came back … I don’t know if the conductor has given it to us …"
Walking in the front and looking slightly tired, the middle-aged Han directly affirmed, "Of course, not only there is, but it is also a very good one … I’m sure everyone will get a two-thousand silver reward when this is finished …"
Speaking of which, you should have guessed that these people are not ordinary people.
It is true that the people gathered here are some backbones of Tiger, Leopard and Military Guards who entered Yangzhou City.
Although their pay is much higher than that of the soldiers of the Tiger and Leopard Army than that of some junior officers of the Tiger and Leopard Army, after all, they live a prosperous life. The limited pay and rewards in Yangzhou ensure that there is not much left after they worry about their lives … So when they hear the reward of two thousand silver, everyone’s eyes shoot out two ways full of hot clothes.
Looking at the master in front of him is like seeing a pile of gold ingots.
Just back from Beijing, the master didn’t let them wait too long to meet everyone and look at their hot eyes. He asked thoughtfully, "Everyone has been lurking in Yangzhou for so long. I don’t know if everyone knows the salt price in Yangzhou …"
"Of course …" As soon as the master’s voice fell, a middle-aged man began to answer …
"The price of common sea salt in Yangzhou city official salt is ten pence a catty … the price of refined salt is fifty pence a catty … in addition, Yangzhou market also circulates a lot of smuggled salt … the price is one catty and forty pence a catty … the quantity of smuggled salt is rarely met but not sought …"
The master nodded and continued to ask, "If I buy two pence and ten pence to transport a batch of smuggled salt, is there any way for everyone to sell them …"
"That’s for sure …" The middle-aged man just spoke and answered without thinking …
"I know a lot of smugglers in Yangzhou. Let them sell as little as 50,000 Jin of salt every month … They buy salt at five and thirty articles. We can sell it to them at four and twenty articles …"
For this result, the master is obviously not very satisfied. Everyone looks at a face of serious analysis. "The whole Yangzhou people have a total of 300,000 … According to a person’s one kilogram of salt a month, one month is 300,000 kilograms of salt … Only 50,000 kilograms of smuggled salt is put into the market, which will not have much impact on the official salt …"
After that, the master went on to ask, "If we sell salt to them for three and fifteen pence … how much can they digest in a month …"
"One hundred thousand catties ….. the master’s adult smuggling smuggled salt is, after all, smuggling smuggled salt … no matter how low the price is, it can also be sold in the dark … the hundred thousand catties are already the limit of these smuggled salt vendors …"
When the master’s brow wrinkled up, another department suddenly woke up and said, "If the adult’s price is really so low, we can consider not only a private salt dealer but also a salt merchant in Yangzhou …"
"All salt merchants in Yangzhou City sell official salt to them at the price of seven articles and thirty-five articles in the imperial court. If we can really give them sea salt at the price of three articles and fifteen articles, they will buy salt from us even at the charge of beheading … After all, the interests in it are too great and they can be salt merchants. Everyone has a very big strength behind them. We must have enough interests to attract them. What court and laws will be directly ignored by the special people …"
When the master’s eyes lit up, he quickly asked, "How much salt do you think these salt merchants can help us eat every month …"
"One hundred and fifty thousand catties less …" Just began to speak without thinking and answered …
At this time, the dignified face of the master finally revealed a heartfelt smile. Everyone looked at the big affirmation and said, "Okay, let’s do it … We will go both the smuggling salt dealer and the salt dealer …"
Compared with the excitement of the principal face, many faces are still confused and confused.
