Now Emperor Chongzhen is particularly attentive to this army composed of his brothers and uncles, and at the same time gives them the most generous military salary, he also conducts strict training for them, and gets rid of the rot of the original Ming army, and develops into a strong army, such as this rush to Liaodong, there is also an amazing marching speed that can travel fifty or sixty miles a day in the eyes of other armies, of course, this is still a big difference compared with the Fuliao army, but this is indeed commendable, not to mention that they came directly.
When Zhao Ziqi, the commander of the Beijing camp, arrived, he reported to Lu Hanqiang as soon as possible, asking for his actions, saying that everything was under the command of Lu Inspector.
Lu Hanqiang was very satisfied with the performance of such a veteran soldier, and at the same time he was indeed short of manpower, even if there were 30,000 pigs now, Lu Hanqiang had to find a way to use it, not to mention the 20,000 army, so he notified them of the plan that had been discussed, Zhao Ziqi immediately accepted this plan with joy to earn military merit and preserve strength, but when he was about to leave, he suddenly made a little request to Lu Hanqiang carefully.
"In this marching battle, we are in a hurry, and you also know that now our royal camp has been fully equipped with your muskets, so in terms of gunpowder and lead, we need you to supply some more, otherwise in the big war, we don't have gunpowder and lead, then our muskets will become burning sticks, and we will not be able to help the Governor."
Lu Hanqiang really can't refuse this request.
After the royal family formed an army, it was still ordinary knives, guns and fire copper at first, but after verifying the quality of Lu Hanqiang's musket in Liaoxi, Chongzhen allocated a huge amount of money for the first time to equip all the royal family with Lu Hanqiang's Suifa gun in Liaoxi, and that time, he bought 40,000 rods at one time, so that Lu Hanqiang, who had always only made money for Chongzhen, finally made some money in Chongzhen's hands.
Of course, Liaoxi's guns will use special gunpowder and lead produced in Liaoxi, Lu Hanqiang is still complacent that he can continue to make arms money in Chongzhen's hands, in fact, a really good arms dealer is not to sell you an AK, but to sell you ammunition and parts in a steady stream, in fact, the latter is more profitable than the previous one.
In fact, the musketeers are simpler than the sword and shield soldiers, and even the spearmen who are stronger than Lu Han in training, if the requirements are low, you can complete a gorgeous transformation from a peasant to a murderous soldier in one day, of course, if you want to become an excellent musketeer, you still have to take gunpowder and bullets to feed, this, Chongzhen and Cao Huachun know, so at the beginning, they abandoned the original Daming firearms battalion guns without ammunition, ammunition is a strong supply, in order to achieve the intensity and effect of training, Cao Huachun has come up with a quantitative rule, That is, how much ammunition each soldier must consume a day, if it can't be reached, the military salary will be deducted, so the current consumption of ammunition in Beijing is very large, even when marching, he does not forget to train, which makes Lu Hanqiang very happy, so that he can expand his own arms consumption, and he can make money continuously.
However, at this time, Zhao Ziqi put forward a request to replenish their ammunition, and Lu Hanqiang was more difficult, because now he was far away from the rear, and it began to be difficult to replenish it, and he had to face more than 100,000 enemies of Huang Taiji.
At this time, Zhao Ziqi begged: "Master Inspector, this time, we were sent by the emperor to hone, but you also know that I am an outsider, and the old men under my opponents, speaking of which, they are all phoenixes and dragon grandchildren, don't look at the time at home, they are all starving to death, but starvation is their business, but it is lost here, that is my business, this thing is like this, I am an outsider, there is really no way, so I was not idle along the way, so I strictly asked them to train, After all, you can't train people, and if you really lack training to kill people, that's a fatal problem, so I consumed a lot of ammunition along the way, no, it's almost gone, so, so.
"Zhao Ziqi was very embarrassed and embarrassed: Therefore, the war is about to start, so I cheekily begged the Inspector to add something to us."
Then he said calmly: "With these ammunition, I don't want to be able to help the Governor, but I want to protect these phoenix sons and dragon grandchildren, and I can take some responsibility for you, and I can go back to pay for it." ” This Zhao Ziqi will be an official, and he also understands his status and situation, and what he says can be regarded as a heart-wrenching, and he can't ignore the actual situation in Beijing, so Lu Hanqiang looked at Zhao Sihai.
Zhao Sihai looked at Huang Shengyuan, who had joined the army, so Huang Shengyuan calculated, and then said cautiously: "You can allocate 200,000 copies of the Beijing camp first, and this amount does not have a great impact on us." ” Such a figure had already made Zhao Ziqi's jaw drop in surprise, and then heard Huang Shengyuan say that it would not affect the future battle of the Fuliao army, which showed how outrageous Lu Hanqiang's reserve of army materials was.
Lu Hanqiang nodded to Zhao Ziqi and said, "Then I will allocate you 200,000 shares."
Then he told him very seriously: "The payment for the goods must be accounted for." ” Zhao Ziqi has no objection to me fighting for you and asking me to pay for it, anyway, this money is from the emperor, and he doesn't pay out of his own pocket, but Zhao Ziqi actually shook his hands: "It's too expensive, it's too expensive, although it's Banzai to pay for it, but as a subordinate, you should also save for Banzai, and the emperor's family has no surplus food." ” "I said it was bookkeeping."
Lu Hanqiang is very puzzled, it seems that this arms deal is not really smooth, now Emperor Chongzhen may be really poor and dropped the chain, calculate carefully, Wang Chengen is dead, after the death of the money, Chongzhen's internal money should be spent like flowing water, although he still gives him the same flow of water every year, but he lacks a financial expert, and eventually there will be a shortage of money, Wang Chengen, Lu Hanqiang's evaluation of him is that as an internal minister, he has no means and ability, or he will not be pressed and beaten by hundreds of officials from the outside court, But he is indeed a master of financial management, or definitely a picker. carefully calculated the account for Chongzhen, I don't know how much Wang Chengen left him, but he hasn't spent a lot recently, whether it is the reorganization of the Beijing camp or the battle of Zunhua, the silver has flowed out in large quantities, and it is embarrassing to think about it.
So Lu Hanqiang nodded understandingly: "Then 100,000 copies." "100,000 points, which is enough for each Beijing soldier to put five guns, if he still has inventory in his hand, he can also hold on to a battle with little intensity, as his own rearguard, there is his own top in front, in fact, the battle will not be very fierce, just leave some ammunition for himself.
At this time, Lu Hanqiang's impression of this Zhao Ziqi was a little better, no matter what his purpose was, after all, he didn't hold himself back. t1706231537:
