Outside Beijing, inside the Qing army camp in Tongzhou.Dolgon led a group of Manchu officials, as well as Moose and other Dutchmen, to stand on a high platform.Historically, the Dutch had colluded with the Manchus to form an alliance to attack Zheng Ming, and now they were threatened by Zhao Ming, which brought them together in advance.Around the high platform, there are triangular yellow dragon flags representing each of the eight flags, and tens of thousands of eight flag soldiers are standing in a queue under the stage.Seven years after entering the customs, the comfortable life in the customs has consumed the willpower of the Eight Banners to a certain extent, and the newly incorporated bannermen of the Eight Banners are far inferior to their fathers and brothers who are not afraid of death, brave and good at fighting, but the old bannermen account for the majority of the Eight Banners, so the whole team is still strong.At this time, under the high platform, the Eight Banners Army was neat and tidy, murderous, and exuded a fierce atmosphere.Mousse and several Dutchmen glanced at each other, and couldn't help but nod their heads, the Tatar army in front of him, although most of them used cold weapons, but there were many of them, and they were indeed a worthy object for their cooperation."
Your Excellency the Regent, the Netherlands can help the Qing defeat the Ming, but the Netherlands hopes to sign an alliance agreement and give the Netherlands exclusive trade rights after the Qing victory."
Mousse said in Dutch.Dolgon listened to the interpreter, he didn't care about any of this, or for Dolgon, the promise was nothing, he needed the Dutchman's firearms now, he could say yes, and if he didn't need it one day, he could go back on it at any time.The treaty can be signed, but if I don't recognize it at that time, it won't be signed."
No problem!"
Dolroll was a little anxious and said, "Bring the firearms you brought to demonstrate!"
”Mousse heard the joy on his face, nodded, and said a few words in Dutch.A group of Dutch soldiers, in the shouts of the officers, "Wow!
”With a sound, he stood up straight, and "Wow!"
”With a bang, he neatly put the flintlock pistol on his shoulder, and then walked to the school grounds.Seeing this, Dolgon couldn't help but secretly exclaim: "Good!
”The Dutchman's simple movements, several people like one, and the movements were uniform, surprised Dole roll, and at the same time realized that the Dutch really had two brushes.However, he immediately thought that Zhao Zamao actually beat this group of red-haired ghosts and came to unite with the Great Qing Kingdom, so wouldn't Zhao Zamao be more powerful than the red-haired ghosts."
This king listened to the words of the Qing warriors in the south of the Yangtze River, the Ming army's firearms were powerful, and now he listened to Kong Youde's words, and the Ming army's firearms were sharp.Since the sharp firearms of the Ming army are all imitations of Western firearms, this king wants to see today, how sharp are the firearms of Hongmaoyi?
”Dorgon said in a deep voice.As the regent of the Qing Dynasty, after Dolgon entered the customs, he has been sitting in Beijing, and the Qing army has fought with Zhao Ming many times, and Dolgon has heard the name of Zhao Ming for a long time, but he has never seen the firearms of the Ming army.A group of Dutch soldiers lined up on the school ground, and the Qing soldiers set up a target seventy paces away.At this time, the Dutch officers shouted, and the Dutch soldiers raised their muskets in unison, and opened fire in unison, and a thick smoke of gunpowder rose.With the loud sound of the musket, the projectiles whistled out, shattering and splashing the wooden planks seventy paces ahead, which immediately startled Dolgon and the others who were watching.At such a distance, the range of the Qing army's bows and arrows could not hurt the musketeers, but the musketeers could penetrate the Qing troops wearing armor.In front of the high platform, the Dutch musketeers, shooting in three layers, the guns rang out, the Dutch retreated after shooting, and after retreating and reloading, they stepped forward to shoot, the soldiers were skillful, and they did not worry about exploding the chamber when they shot, and they were not timid when shooting.Through the smoke of gunpowder, Hong Chengchou saw that the wooden target set up in front of him had disappeared under the gunshot, and hurriedly introduced to Dolgon: "Regent Qiqi, this is a flintlock pistol, also known as a self-generated firebolt.The soldiers of the Zhao thief, equipped with firearms, are this kind. ”Dol Roll suddenly understood why the Qing army would lose, this musket was indeed much stronger than the bird gun."
It's a weapon!"
After a long time, Dolgon spoke, and then said expectantly, "What about the artillery?"
”Mousse said a few more words, and another group of Dutch soldiers came out, pulling a three-pounder copper cannon.The gun looks about the same size as the Franc machine, but there is no sub-gun, and the gun carriage has a large wheel on the left and right, which is more suitable for field sports than the four-wheeled frame of the Franc machine.Hong Chengchou continued: "Regent, this is Hongmaoyi's field bronze cannon, the cannonball weighs about three catties, can shoot two miles, and is supported by horses and mules when marching, which is enough to keep up with the actions of the army. ”Dolgon bowed slightly, could shoot two miles, the range was far beyond the Franc cannon, the war was used well, the result was that the field artillery could hit the Franc machine, and the Franc machine range was not enough, so it could only be passively beaten.At this time, the Dutch artillery had been set up and loaded, and everyone on the high platform saw a Dutch soldier lighting the fuse with a torch, and the spark creeched into the medicine room, and then there was a loud "boom", the cannon body retreated, the muzzle of the cannon spewed out cannon flames and white smoke, and the cannonball whistled out, landed a mile and a half away, splashed a cloud of dirt, and then jumped up again.The Dutch showed the Manchus their muskets and artillery, but the Dutch didn't have grenades, so they didn't show them.In this way, two of the three forms of firearms that appeared in the Ming army were displayed in front of Dolgon.Dolgon was overjoyed, and he looked at Mousse and the others: "The Qing Dynasty can form an alliance with the Netherlands, but how are you going to send us muskets and artillery?"
”Mousse smiled and said, "Your Excellency Lord Regent, the company can sell you this flintlock musket and copper cannon!"
”Dolgon listened to the interpreter and asked, "How much can you sell?"
”The Dutchman: "We can sell a thousand flintlock pistols of ten taels of silver each, and thirty guns of five hundred taels each!"
”When the Manchu people heard this price, they couldn't help frowning, and Dol Roll was also angry in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "I have a million Qing warriors, a thousand guns, and thirty cannons are too few.This king can buy these firearms at this price, but you have to teach the craftsmen of the Qing Dynasty to make them!
”Hong Chengchou walked up to Dolgon and reminded in a low voice, "Regent, there are also Hongmaoyi's sea ships!"
”Dolroll reacted, "And you need to build a ship for me!"
”Mousse and the others' expressions sank, Zhao Ming's strength made them vigilant, although the Dutch cooperated with the Manchus, they did not want the Manchus to master the manufacture of advanced weapons, lest after defeating Zhao Ming, the Manchus would deal with them.Mousse said in a deep voice, "No, no, honorable regent, this will not work.If the regent thinks there are too few muskets, we can buy a thousand shots for the Spaniards in Manila, who have an arsenal in Manila. ”Dolgon said firmly: "Two thousand firearms, the Qing Dynasty wants all, and I will give you another 100,000 taels, and you must help the Ministry of Industry to make firearms and warships!"
If you don't want to, my Qing Dynasty will build it yourself, Zhao Manzi can build it, and my Qing Dynasty has a lot of land and resources, so naturally I can also build it. ”Hearing this, Mousse consulted with several Dutchmen for a while, and finally said in a deep voice: "It can help to make flintlock pistols and artillery, but the ships are absolutely impossible, and must be bought with money." ”(Thank you for your support, ask for a monthly pass, recommend, subscribe) ()
