"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! There are mule soldiers who are against the Ming Dynasty! Let's go!"

at the same time.

The Eight Banners soldiers in the earthen fortress discovered by the Ming army were already in chaos.

This is the forward fortress of the Haicheng group of forts.

Since the Ming army began to dispatch military camps to Liaodong last year.

The Qing Dynasty also began to strengthen Shengjing's defenses.

Centered on Haicheng and Liaoyang.

Attached to the Eight Banners soldiers, Eight Banners bannermen, and Eight Banners Han troops, they built settlements and forts around Haicheng.

There is nothing we can do about the settlement.

Because there is a big war inside the pass now, there is no way to support the war outside the pass. In addition, in order to support the war inside the pass, many strong men from the animal hunting tribe outside the pass have been captured to fill the Sauron cavalry.

As a result, many Manchurian fishing and hunting tribes began to flee.

Manchuria has been desolate for more than a hundred years.

Although the population is not large.

There is no agricultural production.

But the resources in this place are too rich. Even though the Qing Dynasty often captured natives in the northeast to enrich the Eight Banners and established the Sauron cavalry, many tribes' strong men were captured, so that the population of many tribes was greatly reduced. However, after the Qing Dynasty entered the customs Over the past hundred years, the population of Manchuria has been growing.

Based on historical data.

In the late Qianlong Dynasty, the population of more than 1.3 million people covered more than two million square kilometers of land including Outer Northeast and Sakhalin Island.

Among them were 30,000 Eight Banners soldiers, 160,000 family members of the Eight Banners soldiers in Manchuria, and the rest were all fishing and hunting tribes.

To a certain extent, they can be considered relatives of the Eight Banners of Manchuria, but there are many tribes in the Northeast, and many tribes may not identify themselves as belonging to Manchuria or Jianzhou.

In fact, the Manchu and Qing Dynasties did not only defend against Han and Mongolians.

They are also quite wary of the Northeast, a land where the Liao Kingdom, the Jin Kingdom, and even the Qing Dynasty itself had risen.

On the one hand, the Han people were not allowed to enter Manchuria to avoid overpopulation in Manchuria. On the other hand, the strong men of the Manchurian Fishing and Hunting Department were recruited as Sauron cavalry and Ningguta armored men.

After the consumption of war. Exit the transcoding page, please download the app Aiyue to read the latest chapter.

After more than a hundred years of development, the total population of this fertile Liao land has only increased to more than one million people. This population control method of the Qing Dynasty can be considered quite successful.

Know that in the Hereafter.

It took just a few decades for the Qing Dynasty to let go of the border wall.

The population of the Northeast has rapidly increased from only one or two million to more than 30 million. If it were not for the population base of more than 30 million Han people, it is unclear whether the Northeast will still be a Han country in future generations.

However, most of the more than one million natives have fled into the deep mountains and forests. The current population of Liaotu is unable to support tens of thousands of retired troops.

Even the Eight Banners had to carry out farming and farming.

It's the end of August now.

It seems like the harvest has begun in the south.

But spring comes relatively late outside the customs, so the wheat planted now is still green.

The Ming army had no intention of helping the Eight Banners and caring about their crops.

The soldiers of the 33rd Brigade were all recruited from the Liaodong military camp.

There were often small-scale conflicts with the Eight Banners soldiers in Shengjing.

He walked over the crops without any courtesy and set up camp in front of the Eight Banners earth fort called Tieling Tunbao.

The most outrageous thing was a mounted infantry battalion operating with the 33rd Brigade. The horses were simply released to eat young crops.

Hu Song, the co-leader of the Eight Banners inlaid with blue flags inside the fort, could be seen gritting his teeth.

But there is no way, now is the era when the Ming army is invincible in field battles.

Not to mention that Hu Song'e only had more than 1,200 people on hand now. Even if he had 12,000 people, he would not dare to go out and fight a brigade of Ming infantry in the field.

The large and small artillery pieces dragged by the opponent's draft horses are really frightening to see.

But now the Qing army has some experience when facing the Ming army - being beaten is easy to remember.

Therefore, this earthen fortress is very strong.

The outermost layer is densely packed with horse traps.

The function of these horse traps was not only to block the Ming Army's cavalry, but also to block the Ming Army's siege equipment, so that the Ming Army's forward artillery and siege equipment would not be pushed in front of the camp so easily.

After the horse pit, there was a trench more than one foot wide and one person deep. Behind the trench was a low wall, almost as high as a person's chest.

This parapet is convenient for shooting with shotguns and raised guns.

In fact, the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Qing Dynasty can now produce usable flintlock guns - this is all the credit of the British allies.

But of course the output cannot be compared with that of the Ming Dynasty, and the firearms produced must first be closely guarded by the Eight Banners in the Beijing camp. The Eight Banners soldiers outside the customs can only make do with shotguns and carrying guns.

But fortunately, if you don't go out to fight in the field, you have the protection of parapets. If you shoot from a distance, the shotgun and the rifle are actually not much worse than the flintlock.

The role of the flintlock gun is more reflected in field battles.

Without the interference of match ropes, the infantry can be arranged into a tighter horizontal formation. When equipped with bayonets, the denser the formation of the infantry, the more conducive it is to hand-to-hand combat.

Now the Qing army is hiding behind a low wall and shooting with shotguns. When the weather is good, the firing rate of matchlock guns may be higher than that of flintlock guns.

Behind this parapet is a row of sandbag walls with many exits. This is to avoid artillery shells. As long as you hide between the sandbag wall and the parapet, unless the Ming army's artillery shells can fall directly into the trench, it is still quite good. Safe - and according to battlefield experience, the probability of a shell landing directly in a small trench is not high.

Behind the sandbag wall is an earth wall that is more than ten feet high. There are several artillery pieces on the earth wall, which are the latest products of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

A six-pound field gun imitated from the Western six-pounder.

The muzzle of the gun is now pointing forward, which makes people feel reassured.

Hu Song'e gritted his teeth and watched the Ming army in the distance ruining the crops they had worked hard for a year, but he couldn't help but feel helpless.

Which of these Eight Banners soldiers did not grow up hearing about the glorious deeds of their ancestors?

Back then, they, the Eight Banners, went to the pass to rob the territory with great arrogance, while the Ming army shrank in the city and did not dare to go out to fight in the field.

It's better now.

The Ming army came from the south, and a single infantry battalion dared to station itself at the front of a fortress without fear of being wiped out in a surprise attack by the Eight Banners' white-armored soldiers.

But then again, now is the age of muskets and artillery.

Even if the ancestors were still alive, they would not dare to fight in the field easily in the face of the Ming army's explosive ammunition.

What's more, what about these unworthy descendants who are inferior to their ancestors in both martial arts and courage?

So staying in the fort is the right way to go.

If we defend the fort, we might be able to cause some damage to the Ming army.

Hu Song'e was still thinking about defense.

Inside the fort, Lin Guoliang, the leader of the Eight Banners Han Army who was sent from Fengtian to assist in defending the fort, had begun to retreat.

"Sir, retreat, we can't beat them. This is just their vanguard. With this posture, it looks like there are at least tens of thousands of soldiers!"

Lin Guoliang reminded him in Ganghusong's ear.

Lin Guoliang was also unlucky.

It was a guerrilla force from the Guangdong Green Camp back then. If they had surrendered on the battlefield at that time.

Maybe now you can get a battalion commander or something like that in the Ming army.

As a result, he ran away after a thought. This run started all the way north from Guangdong.

First, he was assigned to the Green Camp in the south and fought with Qianlong in the Battle of Northern Jiangxi.

Then he was incorporated into the Eight Banners Han Army. He thought he could be stationed in the capital and enjoy it for a few years.

Unexpectedly, the Ming Dynasty actually established military camps in Liaodong.

Lin Guoliang, a Han soldier from Guangdong, had no foundation or connections in the Eight Banners Han Army, so the drudgery of stationing outside the Pass fell on him.

Said to be the co-leader of the Eight Banners and Han Army.

Outside the customs, they were basically low-class people who were ordered around by the Eight Banners of Manchuria and the Eight Banners of Mongolia.

While in the customs.

The Eight Banners Han Army can still dominate ordinary Han people, and they are not considered to be the lowest.

But outside the customs.

The Eight Banners and Han Army are the lowest existence.

Neither the Manchu masters nor the Mongolian masters could afford to offend.

In addition, the Eight Banners outside the Pass are military and civilian.

Just a low status.

Still have to do farm work.

Said it was the Han army.

In fact, he is the third-class man in charge of production... No, it is the fourth-class man.

The first class is Manchuria, the second class is Mongolia, and the third class is the indigenous people here in the Northeast.

The Han army can only be ranked at the bottom...

Lin Guoliang, the co-leader of the Han army, did not have much power or status at all.

Hu Songer glared at Lin Guoliang sideways.

"Withdraw? Where to withdraw? This is the land of Longxing in our Qing Dynasty, the land of our ancestors. I will not go anywhere. I will coexist and die with the land of my ancestors!"

Lin Guo felt helpless.

You have to fucking protect the land of your ancestors. ,

The ancestral land of Lao Tzu is in Guangdong.

Why should I die here with you?

If I had known earlier, I would have surrendered in Guangdong.

But who knew that the Qing Dynasty was so crotchless.

Unexpectedly, in just a few years, Guangdong and Guangxi were lost, Hunan was lost, and Liangjiang was lost.

Now we see that if Henan cannot be defended, Huainan will also be lost.

In the south, millions of people from the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom wanted to enter Zhili.

There are elite Ming troops in the north sweeping through Liaodong.

It seems that the Qing Dynasty will soon have to blow out the lamp and pull out the wax.

What benefits can you get by surrendering to the Ming army now?

Even eating shit didn't make it hot.

Lin Guoliang thought.

Right now.

Tangma from the north flew in and entered the earthen castle.

He brought an order from Jinchang, the deputy commander of the Xianglan Banner who was stationed in Haicheng.

"Deputy Commander of the Xianglan Banner: Xianglan Banner's Front Association and Tieling Tunbao Han Army Bannermen quickly withdraw into Haicheng and abandon Tieling Tunbao within two hours. After withdrawing, they must set fire to it to prevent it from being used by the enemy... .”

"What? Withdraw?!"

Husong'e immediately jumped up, stared and roared.

"We can't withdraw! This is the land of our ancestors, how can we abandon it!!"

The surrounding Eight Banners officers were also filled with indignation.

They all expressed their intention to fight to the death with the Ming army here.

It looks quite brave.

"We can't withdraw. Apart from other things, we can't lose the hundreds of thousands of acres of wheat around Tieling Tunbao to the Ming army!"

"Yes, this is our life-saving food for winter!"

"Withdraw, I'm afraid people will starve to death this winter!"

starve?

The Qing Dynasty had ruled the world for more than a hundred years.

When did the Eight Banners of Manchuria starve to death?

But now the Qing Dynasty has lost the Huguang grain-producing land, and the grain supply has been cut off.

The food crisis has haunted more than one million Eight Banners.

If I can't dig a little bit on the ground this year.

I'm afraid people will starve to death next spring.

"Everyone wants to fight, so let's teach Ni Ming a lesson in Tieling Tunbao and let them see how powerful our Eight Banners master is!"

Really...

The ignorant are fearless.

These Eight Banners outside the Pass have never fought against the Ming army.

I have no idea how powerful the Ming army is.

Lin Guoliang was thinking, but he did not continue to persuade these ghosts who wanted to die. Instead, he said with a sneer on his face: "Master Xie Ling, then our Han army flag will..."

"Go, go, go!"

Hu Songqian waved his hand with disdain.

Lin Guoliang withdrew according to military orders.

He couldn't say a word "no" either.

This lawsuit was justified even when it was brought before Qianlong.

So Husong'e didn't care about Lin Guoliang and the Han army he belonged to.

Greeting his men.

Start setting up defense.

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.
