I Build an Aircraft Carrier in the Ming Dynasty

The news of the Ming army's great victory quickly spread back to Suzhou, and when Wu Changqing led 8,000 troops to defeat the 40,000 Qing army, the people all had incredible expressions.

Killing 5,000 and capturing tens of thousands of enemy troops, this kind of great victory, the Ming army can actually do it, is this still the Ming army in everyone's impression?

In the past two years, Daming's army has not fought any victories. If you fight Li Zicheng, you will lose, and if you fight the Manchu Tatars, you will lose. Everyone who loses is getting used to it.

After the surprise, many smiles appeared on the faces of the people. The Ming army was victorious, and they had another happy birthday to live.

More importantly, Wu Changqing is a Han Chinese, and he will never force them to keep their braids. Moreover, judging from Wu Changqing's performance during this period, he is obviously a general who loves his people like a son.

Some time ago, I would rather take the risk of breaking the city than shoot innocent people.

Living under such a ruler is the best for the common people.

When the news of the Qing army's defeat reached Tang Mansion and Liu Mansion, Tang Yu and Liu Shizao almost fell off the stool.

It was really surprising, they never expected Liu Liangzuo to be so useless. Originally, they thought that Liu Liangzuo would definitely win, it was just a matter of time.

But he did not expect that Liu Liangzuo, who had an army of tens of thousands, would be so vulnerable. It was enough that they couldn't capture the city, but they were actually defeated by Wu Changqing.

In this way, they have no chance to seize the soap business, and can only watch Chen Daolin make money.

Of course, this is not the worst thing, the worst thing is that they all had correspondence with Liu Liangzuo before. In the letter, they all expressed their willingness to support Liu Liangzuo, and expressed their willingness to give some help to the Qing army at the right time.

But now, the Qing army's camp has been breached, and Liu Liangzuo fled in embarrassment. Will these letters fall into Wu Changqing's hands?

If those letters were not burnt, it would be evidence of a crime. Wu Changqing could use this as an excuse to kill them and raid their homes.

For a while, both Tang Yu and Liu Shizao were in a state of panic, and there was no more chatting and laughing like they did some time ago.

They can't even escape, after all, their family business is in and around Suzhou.

What to do? What to do? What to do?

Tang Yu sweated profusely on his forehead.

Or, like Chen Daolin, present his family property and beauties?

If an estate of several hundred thousand taels of silver could be saved from this disaster, Tang Yu could only grit his teeth to do so. However, he is just not sure whether Wu Changqing has obtained those letters.

If not, wouldn't that be giving away the family property in vain?

In the Suzhou government office, Wu Changqing summoned his generals to arrange the next military action.

"In the next step, we need to occupy two important places, one is Wuxi, and if we occupy Wuxi, we can resist the Qing army in Nanjing.

Another place is Jiaxing, where the occupation of Jiaxing will be able to guard against Li Chengdong's department in Hangzhou. By keeping these two points, the entire Wusong area can fall under our control. "

Wu Changqing pointed to a simple map and said that the maps of this era are very freehand.

Wu Changqing refers to Wu Song, which is the area of ​​Shanghai and Jiaxing in Suzhou in later generations.

In this era, the development of Songjiang is still very backward, just a small county, but Suzhou and Jiaxing are developing well.

This is all because of the sea prohibition order issued by Zhu Yuanzhang, the Ming Dynasty was not allowed to do business with foreign fleets, and could only smuggle in private.

Under this policy, Songjiang's geographical advantages cannot be brought into play, and naturally it has not been well developed.

Only Wu Changqing understands how good the geographical location of Songjiang is. It has always been the most economically developed city in China and the Pearl of the Orient in later generations.

Now that the West has started a large-scale maritime trade, as long as he agrees with those who come from the West to do business in Songjiang, then this place can quickly become prosperous.

What are the benefits of being prosperous, it is naturally taxation. A very important point in fighting is money. With the continuous expansion of the army, Wu Changqing's financial pressure is also increasing.

If he can't pay his salary in the future, I'm afraid it will be his turn to be betrayed by his subordinates.

The best way to make money is to create taxes.

Songjiang, a barren land that others despise, is a treasure in Wu Changqing's eyes.

Therefore, he is very eager to control this place and make it his base camp.

"The last will be willing to attack Wuxi."

Liu Hansan was the first to say that the current Liu Liangzuo's low morale was a good time to bully them and grab credit.

Others who were slow to react followed suit. Some are willing to fight Wuxi, while others are willing to take Jiaxing.

"Yes, you can bring three thousand people from the headquarters, and then let Wang Dafu support your five hundred flintlock troops to take Wuxi as soon as possible. As for Jiaxing, General Dai and General Li will be in charge together. General Wang and General Dong are dispatched. A small number of troops will go to capture Songjiang and the surrounding areas. Remember, my troops are not allowed to rob and kill people, and once I find them, I will never forgive them.

Wu Changqing ordered.

The entire army was divided into three parts by him. About 4,000 people were deployed to Wuxi, 6,000 were deployed to Jiaxing, and the remaining 5,000 were stationed in Suzhou.

When mobilizing the army, Wu Changqing already felt that the original army structure was not suitable for the current army.

For example, Liu Hansan went to attack

Wuxi, relying on the headquarters alone, has enough troops, but the arms are too single, there is no fire gun army, and there is no archer. It was a bit inconvenient to assign part of Wang Dafu's army to him.

It is imperative to reorganize the army, and Wu Changqing plans to change the army into the establishment of later generations, that is, the establishment of military division, brigade, regiment, battalion, and company.

This system has been tested by countless wars, and countless battle examples have demonstrated the superiority of this system.

Wu Changqing is not a military genius, and he can't think of any more sophisticated system, so he plans to copy it directly.

However, these have to wait for Wuxi and Jiaxing to be won.

After occupying the place of Wu Song, he can finally let go of his hands and feet to engage in construction.

Although he is only 16 years old this year, he has at least 60 to 70 years of life expectancy, but this kind of construction does not happen overnight.

The first industrial revolution in the UK took sixty or seventy years to create a train.

Wu Changqing's systematic help will certainly not take so long, but it is still very difficult to complete the electrical revolution in his lifetime, and even enter the information age.

After having this system, he will want to come up with those advanced things from time to time. Now, he is a little impatient.

He still wants to go online again in his lifetime, and he doesn't know if this will be an extravagant hope.
