Daming pirates

After trying it out, Sea Wolf discovered that these black slaves were indeed much more hard-working than those black-skinned monkeys, and were much more obedient than them. They were also physically stronger, ran very fast, and had excellent jumping ability, so he

With a wave of his hand, Xiaotian ordered the army to recruit two companies of black soldiers.

These black soldiers are endowed with unique abilities. After receiving relatively sufficient food and recuperating for a period of time, they have very good physical fitness, full of explosive power, and are very obedient. When they go into battle, they can be said to be fearless and very brave.

.

Moreover, these black slaves felt that their new masters did not seem to be cruel to them. At least they were much better than the white slave traders who captured them before. Moreover, these black slaves also accepted their fate and were transported to such a distant place.

They can only obey the arrangements of their new masters.

Therefore, they work very seriously and are very obedient. When Sea Wolf uses them up and down, they feel very comfortable, so their treatment is even improved.

The first time Sea Wolf used them on the battlefield, when the gangsters saw these black soldiers for the first time, they were almost scared out of their wits. Although these black soldiers were not equipped with muskets, they only fought with long guns.

Weapons, but they were still frightened to the point of weakness by these black soldiers, and were immediately killed and routed into a rout.

As a result, rumors suddenly spread in Fujian, saying that Yu Xiaotian was extremely powerful and could actually use mountain ghosts to his advantage and charge into battle for him. These mountain ghosts eat human flesh and drink human blood. They are invulnerable and extremely powerful. No one can beat them.

enemy.

After hearing the rumors, Yu Xiaotian couldn't help but secretly feel happy. When any new thing is not understood by others, it will be rumored to be magical and shrouded in a mysterious halo. Most people in the Ming Dynasty have rarely seen it or even seen it.

I had heard about the existence of black people, so I was inevitably suspicious and frightened before the battle.

But this is a good thing for him. The black soldiers of these two companies can be used as one of his surprise troops, allowing them to appear unexpectedly on the battlefield. No matter who they encounter, they will probably be frightened.

Not light.

Generally speaking, in the past two or three years, the Sea Wolf Group under Yu Xiaotian has been making rapid progress in various fields all day long. Not only has it made a lot of money, but it has also gained many other things, making it

The overall strength of the Sea Wolf has increased at least several times or even dozens of times compared to the last years of Tianqi.

The entire Sea Wolf Group has now grown into a behemoth. No one dares to say that they can be easily eliminated. Moreover, the entire Taiwan Island has been almost managed by them into a stable rear base. Here

Not only does it have a large population, but it also owns a large amount of farmland, which has become a base that can provide sufficient food supply to the Sea Wolf Group.

In troubled times, what is most important? It is not money, horses, or weapons. What is truly most important is food, the most basic thing that humans need.

As long as you have food in your hands, you will naturally not panic. As long as you have food, then there will be people who can follow you, work for you, and listen to your orders! Food can be exchanged for tens of millions of soldiers and horses, and it can also create a force.

So at this point, Yu Xiaotian can basically feel relieved and no longer has to worry about his retreat.

In the past few years, history seems to have been controlled by a giant hand in the dark, maintaining the previous inertia and slowly advancing forward.

This huge, dilapidated car of the Ming Dynasty never stopped or yawed, and just rolled forward, heading into the abyss.

The apocalyptic scene of buildings about to collapse has been unfolded in various places in the north. Although Emperor Chongzhen was diligent, he was always controlled by fate and could not change anything. He just continued to make various decisions according to his original fate.

Right or wrong decision.

In the first year of Chongzhen, Yuan Chonghuan, who had been idle because he was not liked by Wei Zhongxian, was finally activated by Chongzhen. Emperor Chongzhen personally summoned Yuan Chonghuan's platform, but was decisively fooled by Yuan Chonghuan.

Yuan Chonghuan didn't know where the confidence came from, but he actually deceived Chongzhen that if he was appointed governor of Ji Liao, he could conquer Liao in five years.

Chongzhen was probably shocked by Yuan Chonghuan's words, or he was really confused about the issue of slave establishment in Liaodong. When Yuan Chonghuan did not come up with any implementation strategy, he actually believed Yuan Chonghuan's words and promoted Yuan Chonghuan immediately.

As Minister of the Ministry of War and the right deputy governor of the capital, he supervises Ji Liao and supervises the military affairs of Tianjin and Denglai. It can be said that he has been given the greatest trust.

Yuan Chonghuan also took the opportunity to speak loudly to the Chongzhen Lion, asking for money, food, soldiers, and power. Chongzhen indeed gave him everything he could.

As a result, the first thing Yuan Chonghuan did when he rushed to Jizhou to take office was to kill Mao Wenlong.

Who is Mao Wenlong? Before Yu Xiaotian came to this era, he was still doubtful. In history, some people said that Mao Wenlong was a loyal minister, but others said that Mao Wenlong was a traitorous minister who respected his troops. Some people said that Yuan Chonghuan was right to kill Mao Wenlong. There were also many

People say that Yuan Chonghuan was killed by mistake.

But after so many years since Yu Xiaotian came to this era, through his own eyes and ears and his intelligence system, he came to a conclusion based on his personal understanding of Mao Wenlong. Mao Wenlong was definitely a loyal minister, and a rare one.

Loyal minister.

It's a pity that Mao Wenlong is a bit headstrong and upright, and he does things unscrupulously. In order to run Dongjiang Town, he really offended many civil servants, especially those in Shandong, who were offended to death by him. In addition, in order to support him, he

A large number of his generals and the Han people in Liaodong actually did a lot of taboo things, such as secretly smuggling and minting private money.

When Mao Wenlong opened the town of Dongjiang, he naturally needed the Ming Dynasty to provide food and salary, but the food and salary the Ming Dynasty could give him was very limited. With this small amount of food and salary, he not only supported his own soldiers in Liaodong, but also supported a large number of refugees from Liaodong.

But with such a limited amount of food and salary, it was allocated to Mao Wenlong's Dongjiang Army from Denglai, Shandong. As long as these officials in Shandong dealt with plucking geese, every time the food and salary were allocated to the hands of the Dongjiang Army, they would inevitably be wiped out.

A large number, 100% went into Mao Wenlong's hands, and it was a blessing to be able to get 60%.

Mao Wenlong led the Dongjiang Army, hanging alone overseas, fighting alone, seeing these life-saving food and salaries being pocketed by those damn officials, how could he swallow this sigh of relief, so he complained to the court frequently.

So naturally he became a thorn in the flesh of those civil servants, who wished they could get rid of him quickly.

Mao Wenlong's character also created his tragedy. He had tens of thousands of troops in the Dongjiang Army and controlled hundreds of thousands of Han refugees in Liaodong. Naturally, in many cases, he seemed a bit too big and not very obedient.

When Yuan Chonghuan was working in Liaodong in his early years, he had some issues with Mao Wenlong. Now that Yuan Chonghuan has become the governor of Jiliao, he inevitably has to deal with Mao Wenlong on some matters. Naturally, Mao Wenlong is not as obedient as Yuan Chonghuan thought, so their conflicts have accumulated over time.

, which aroused Yuan Chonghuan's anger.

So this also led to Mao Wenlong's final tragic end. As expected, Yuan Chonghuan followed the original historical trajectory. After taking office, he cut off the Dongjiang Army's food and salary supply for eight months in various names, resulting in the loss of food and salary to the Dongjiang Army within the jurisdiction of Dongjiang Town.

There was a shortage of food, and people died of hunger all over the place. Then in the name of negotiating salary, they deceived Mao Wenlong to Shuangdao, set up an ambush and killed Mao Wenlong.

For Yu Xiaotian, who was familiar with this period of history, he even thought about saving Mao Wenlong before, but in the end he suppressed his idea and just secretly asked his people in Dongjiang Town to vaguely remind Mao Wenlong,

Beware of Yuan Chonghuan and don't follow Yuan Chonghuan's baton easily.

That was all he could do, but it was obvious that Mao Wenlong didn't care about the hints from Xiaotian's men, and was eventually framed by Yuan Chonghuan and killed.

Regardless of whether Yuan Chonghuan is a traitor and a traitor as some people say, but from his plan to kill Mao Wenlong, it can be seen that at least this person is narrow-minded, arrogant and arrogant, and his self-confidence and desire for power are all under his admiration.

After the emperor's attention, it has been extremely expanded and will never allow anyone within his jurisdiction to challenge his majesty.

Perhaps his original intention was to control the entire Dongjiang Army in his hands, hoping to be able to control the Dongjiang Army like an arm and a finger. However, in this era, he forgot the importance of Mao Wenlong to the Dongjiang Army. Mao Wenlong single-handedly created the Dongjiang Army.

How could the army be without him? As the soul of the Dongjiang Army, if Mao Wenlong is gone, who can control those unruly soldiers of the Dongjiang Army?

Yuan Chonghuan originally wanted to parachute a person to be the commander-in-chief of the Dongjiang Army and control the entire Dongjiang Army for his own use. However, if he did this, even if this person had great abilities, he would not be able to control the entire Dongjiang Army.

.

Therefore, even if Yuan Chonghuan was not a traitor and a traitor, he was at least an overly smart fool. The first thing he did when he took office was to cut off his own arm, completely solving the problem of the Tatars' henchmen.

In fact, he should be able to imagine that Ye Boarpi had said before his death that as long as Mao Wenlong and his Dongjiang Army were there, Houjin would not be able to ignore their home base and would not dare to easily go south to knock on the pass and invade the pass.

But Yuan Chonghuan still did this thing that made his relatives angry and his enemies happy. The reason was just because he felt that Mao Wenlong didn't listen to him.

After Yuan Chonghuan killed Mao Wenlong, as expected, three months later, Huang Taiji led his troops out, invaded the pass, and approached the capital city.

(Wow, wow, wow! I’m going to kneel down! Brother Xiaochunfeng of the Desert gave me a big reward again! And of course, Brother Yingzhiwu! Thank you so much! I’m so grateful!)
