"The teaching bandits have been struggling in Guanzhong for almost a year, and they are not satisfied with just one Guanzhong..."
Fukang'an was on horseback, inspecting the military camp with a group of Green Flag Army officers.
More than 70,000 Green Flag soldiers organized by local gentry from Shandong and Anhui suddenly flocked to Shaanzhou.
Qianlong also ordered the local government in Henan to provide food and grass for these more than 70,000 people, and in addition to recruit 100,000 men to accompany the army as coolies.
Henan has now become the front line of the confrontation between the Qing court and the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.
This is due to the poor military discipline of the Qing army, or it could be said that Fukang'an and other senior Qing army officials deliberately indulged in the frequent robberies.
Here is the heavenly army that may break through the barrier at any time and sweep away all the troops heading north to Beijing.
It seems that the suffering of the people of Henan will not stop for a while.
At this time, one hundred thousand civilians were building fortifications in full swing.
If the army of heaven comes out of Tongguan, this is the place where it must pass.
Relying on fortifications, the army of heaven can be blocked.
on the contrary.
If you want to break into Guanzhong.
There must also be a safe place to store food.
This fortification must be built solidly.
"It's a pity that last year, I was busy fighting Ni Ming, which made this bandit become a climate!" Fukang'an said with a sigh.
"Now that the bandits have gained ground in Guanzhong, they have gained a firm foothold in Guanzhong and are even more difficult to deal with!" Zhang Ruoai said with a frown.
"There's nothing difficult to deal with. It's easier to deal with than having them running around all over the world!"
Fukangan waved his hand and said.
After fighting with the Ming army for two years, he suddenly faced a group of "normal" opponents.
Even though the soldiers of the Kingdom of Heaven who have divided the territory are very difficult to deal with, they have a strong will to fight, and the equipment purchased by these wealthy soldiers is usually very sophisticated.
Whether it is a flintlock gun or various cold weapons, the materials used are quite solid.
But that's about it.
What a solid piece of equipment.
Do they have the firepower of the Ming army?
No matter how sophisticated the armor is.
If you lift the gun and drop it, it will be penetrated.
Although the equipment of the Green Flag Soldiers under Fukang'an was not very good.
But compared with the Heavenly Kingdom Mansion Soldiers, there is no essential difference.
This kind of war seems to be in line with all Fukang'an's previous war experience...
"The Green Flag Soldiers need to reorganize themselves and tell everyone that after entering Guanzhong, you can let go of grabbing and fishing!"
Fukangan said.
These Green Flag soldiers are essentially regiment training organized by hometown and blood ties.
It is similar to the Hunan Army and Huai Army in later generations.
Compared with the green camp soldiers.
This kind of army that is bound by fellow villagers and even fathers, sons and brothers serve together has very obvious advantages.
For example, when the Green Battalion soldiers fight, they often "will not save each other if they are defeated, but will be jealous of them if they win. Even though the entire army is wiped out, no one comes to help."
However, the Hunan army in later generations was often able to rescue each other in battle.
With a little training, they will indeed have stronger combat effectiveness than the Green Camp soldiers.
But again, the motivation for this kind of army to fight comes from the spoils of war.
These local regiment training from Anhui and Shandong, and fellow soldiers led by some landlords and gentry, basically came to seek money-because even if they died in battle, there would be reliable people to help bring the money back to their hometowns.
Later generations of Hunan produced so many talents in modern times.
In fact, it has something to do with the fact that the Hunan army fought abroad and many people got rich. Those poor children in Hunan who had no chance to receive education had the opportunity to study and make progress because their elders made money fighting (looting) outside. Military officers returned to their hometowns to run schools.
After contacting these green flag soldiers.
Fukang'an knew how to inspire the fighting spirit of these soldiers from other provinces.
As long as there is a chance to make a fortune, these green flag soldiers are worthy of use.
Therefore, he made a promise to "go to the prosperous Guanzhong to make a big fortune".
Anyway, on the one hand, Guanzhong is already the territory of the religious bandits, and the land has been divided. If you go to Guanzhong, you are robbing the religious bandits.
on the other hand...
Fukang'an himself must know that Guanzhong is a poor place now.
Didn’t those crazy poor Green Camp soldiers from the Gansu and Shaanxi Green Camps come from this place?
But I don’t know if I can’t stand those old haters from Anhui and Shandong.
After all, this religious bandit ignored Sichuan, the land of abundance, and insisted on making Guanzhong his home, which made Fukangan's statement look quite...convincing.
Therefore, the interest of the Green Flag Soldiers is quite high now.
Just waiting for Lord Fukang Anfu to lead everyone to break through Tongguan and go to Guanzhong to make a fortune.
"There is a lot of commotion in Tongguan. It seems that the religious bandits may leave the pass and enter Henan. The religious bandits are good at coercion and fighting. Shaanzhou and Henan Prefecture must strengthen their walls and clear the country, and gather all the people and food into the pass city!"
"In addition, arrange good people in all the cities where food is stored. Once the bandits break the city, they must sweep up all the edible food! Poison the water source! I will make the bandits starve to death and thirst to death!"
Fukang'an asked the officials and defenders of Shaanzhou and Henan Prefectures to be prepared to strengthen the walls and clear the country.
As long as the army of heaven cannot obtain supplies locally, they will have to fight along a long supply line. In this way, the cult bandits have nothing to fear.
........
"Long live! Long live!"
Tongguan.
Heavenly Kingdom Army Camp.
A total of more than 12,000 soldiers were summoned from various Zhechong mansions, arranged in neat square formations, chanting slogans in high spirits, and accepted the review of the King of Heaven.
Each and every one of these soldiers got a farm. It was a time when they were very proud and at the same time extremely eager to make progress.
After all, the land in this kingdom of heaven is not evenly distributed. Different statuses will naturally have different sizes of land.
From government soldiers to officers at all levels, as well as princes and princes.
There is a strict hierarchy to distinguish.
And this level is not already solidified.
But it can be seen and touched.
For these soldiers who followed the White Lotus Sect to rebel.
It seems like all they have to do is try harder.
You can also get thousands of acres of fertile land and a future for generations of princes.
The Heavenly King Liu Zhixie took the lead, and behind him were several powerful factions from the Kingdom of Heaven, including Wen Wang Zhang Hanchao, Wu Wang Yao Zhifu, Da Guo Gong Wang Sanhuai, Ji Guo Gong Xu Tiande, Tao Guo Gong Zhang Zhengmo, and Qi Guo Gong Nie Jieren.

Since the Earth King Qi Lin was so preoccupied with holding hands with the princesses, he no longer cared about anything else.
His subordinates now all belong to the Heavenly King Liu Zhixie.
In addition, the two princes of the Kingdom of Heaven, Zhang Hanchao and Yao Zhifu, are also on the side of the Heavenly King.
Therefore, Liu Zhixie's strength is definitely the most powerful in this kingdom of heaven.
But at the same time.
People like Wang Sanhuai, Xu Tiande and others.
The strength of his subordinates cannot be underestimated.
This military parade.
In fact, it was a shock.
The Kingdom of Heaven's more than 20,000 soldiers were all directly led by Liu Zhixie's Palace of Heaven.
In addition to his Heavenly King's fiefdom, as well as the soldiers and horses in the fiefdoms of the other three princes.
Liu Zhixie could control more than 60,000 troops.
The total number of the other young masters is probably this number - this refers to veterans who can go into battle to kill the enemy, not just to make up the numbers.
Although the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is known as one million soldiers.
But in fact, most of them are coerced to make up the numbers.
The total force that can really be mobilized into battle.
Only about 100,000.
In fact, this is already extraordinary.
With the ruins of Guanzhong.
It can also afford 100,000 soldiers.
This kind of system is almost like a militaristic system in which the whole society uses the power of the whole society to support the army.
It can burst out powerful power in a short period of time.
But the same thing.
under such a system.
But it must also fight on all sides, otherwise it will backfire on itself. Similarly, once defeated...such a system is also very likely to collapse quickly!
"How about it, with such powerful soldiers, can our Kingdom of Heaven go straight to Huanglong and defeat the capital in one battle?"
Liu Zhixie was so proud that he turned around and smiled at the princes from Heaven behind him.
"How can the Qing Tartars resist such powerful soldiers?"
"The Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty were like this. When we entered Chang'an, we killed thousands of them!"
"The Eight Banners can't do it, and the Green Camp can't do it either! I think the Qing Dynasty is already declining. In the future, the world will be a battle between our Kingdom of Heaven and the Southern Ming Dynasty!"
Several Heavenly Kingdom princes also said happily when they saw the grand military appearance of Gangtian Kingdom Mansion.
"Hahahaha! Although the emperor of the Zhu family has some luck for a while, he is not a hero after all! He already has Jiangnan, but he doesn't know the principle of making great efforts, then failing, and finally exhausting himself! He wasted his time by simply attacking Jiangnan. , actually let Qianlong return to the capital, fearing that there was a small calculation of the snipe and the clam competing for the fishermen's profits! With such a calculation and such a big heart, half of the world would be lucky!"
Liu Zhixie sneered.
He looked like he didn't take Daming seriously.
When all the gentlemen looked at each other.
Zhang Hanchao went on to say: "The emperor of the Zhu family built a lot of construction projects in the south, overhauled palaces, ports, and railways, and took the daughters of the southern big families and surrounding vassal states as concubines. When the country was first established, he was so disrespectful of the people's power, and he was so lustful that he was afraid of life. I have long been addicted to the gentle country of Jiangnan and cannot extricate myself! Jiangnan is not a place for heroes. As long as our Kingdom of Heaven conquers the Central Plains, this world will belong to the Kingdom of Heaven!"
Everyone nodded when they heard the words, and they all thought it made sense.
"Let the Emperor of the Zhu family enjoy Jiangnan for a few more years. When we conquer the Central Plains, we can then go south to level Jiangnan and dominate the world!"
"Yes, yes, yes! In the future, if we take the emperor of the Zhu family to Chang'an and make him a prince, we can say that we are happy here even though we have no choice but to say that we are not thinking clearly..."
"Ha ha ha ha..."
In the midst of everyone's discussion.
Liu Zhixie stretched out his hand, and everyone suddenly became quiet.
"No matter what the Qing Dynasty wants to do during this expedition, we have only one goal!"
"Go north! Go north!! Go to Beijing, fight for the world, and make a fortune!"
"Go to Beijing! Fight for the world! Make a fortune!"
For a while.
Thunderous cheers.
...
Just when the two forces in northern China were about to have a large-scale confrontation.
There is a large fleet.
It has also bypassed the southernmost tip of the South Asian subcontinent, entered the Bay of Bengal, and sailed north.
The Union Jack flag on the fleet shows the identity of this fleet!
This is the British Eastern Intervention Fleet that finally arrived in India after sailing for nearly three months from the British mainland! !
The flagship of the fleet is a first-class sailing battleship with a fully loaded displacement of 3,500 tons.
Aboard the Royal Navy battleship HMS Victory.
Lieutenant General Nelson, commander of the Eastern Intervention Fleet, and Richard Wellesley, the new Governor-General of India of the British Empire who came with George III's new India policy, were sitting in the top cabin with the best view, staring not far away. This huge continent.
"We'll reach Calcutta in three days!"
Richard Wellesley said.
"What are your plans, General?"
After the endless coma, Shi Yu suddenly stood up from the bed. If you want to read the latest chapters, please download the Star Reading app and read the latest chapters for free without ads.

He took a big breath of fresh air, his chest trembling.
Confused, confused, and all kinds of emotions came to my mind.
Where is this?
Afterwards, Shi Yu subconsciously observed his surroundings, and then became even more confused.
A single dormitory?
Even if he was successfully rescued, he should be in the ward now.
And my body...how could I not have any injuries at all?
With doubts, Shi Yu's eyes quickly swept across the room, and finally his eyes rested on a mirror beside the bed.
The mirror showed his current appearance. He was about seventeen or eighteen years old, and he looked very handsome.
But the problem is, this is not him! Download the Star Reading app and read the latest chapters for free without ads.
My previous self was a handsome young man in his twenties who had been working for a while.
And now, no matter how you look, this appearance is that of a high school student...
This change made Shi Yu stunned for a long time.
Don't tell him that the operation was successful...
The body and appearance have changed. This is not a matter of surgery or not, but magic.
He turned into a completely different person!
Could it be...that he traveled through time?
In addition to the mirror placed by the bedside, which was obviously not feng shui-friendly, Shi Yu also found three books next to it.
Shi Yu picked it up and took a look. The title of the book instantly silenced him.
"Essential Animal Breeding Manual for Beginner Breeders"
"Postpartum Care of Pet Pets"
"Evaluation Guide for Interracial Beast-Eared Girls"
Shi Yu:? ? ?
The names of the first two books are pretty normal, but what happened to the last one?
"cough."
Shi Yu looked solemnly and stretched out his hand, but his arm soon stiffened.
Just when he was about to open the third book and see what it was about, his brain suddenly felt a sharp pain, and a large number of memories came flooding back.
Icefield City.
