Chapter 1457 Hu Zongxian's anger
Closing the pond newspaper, Zhu Pingan frowned for a long time in a daze, no matter how he looked at it, he felt that the pond newspaper was a bit absurd.
There are only 150 Japanese pirates, how can they have such destructive power? ! First massacre the people of Funing Town, then destroy the three thousand coalition forces of Master Liu and Xu Qianhu, the magistrate of Shaoxing, and then kill the old censor Qian and his party who returned home!
Among other things, let's talk about the coalition forces of Master Liu and Xu Qianhu, the magistrate of Shaoxing, with a total of 3,000 people. They couldn't do anything to the 150 Japanese pirates. They failed to kill the Japanese, and more than 600 people were killed. Calculated in this way, on average, each Japanese pirate killed four Ming soldiers? ! And can he leave unscathed? !
This group of pirates are all special forces? ! Or is it that the Shaoxing government concealed the information, and the Shaoxing coalition army did not have 3,000 people, but 300? !
The Shaoxing government may conceal the report, but it will never be this kind of figure. The suppression of Japanese pirates failed. If Shaoxing local officials wanted to cover up their ugliness, they would only exaggerate the number of Japanese pirates and reduce the number of their own coalition forces. If there are many enemies and few soldiers, it is understandable that we will be defeated; if there are few enemies and many soldiers, then the defeat should not be deserved!
Zhu Pingan also knew the current situation of the Ming army. There were many old, weak, sick and disabled, insufficient training, and serious deterioration in combat power, but after all, there were 3,000 trained soldiers. About a thousand people, such a force advantage should be enough to wipe out more than a hundred Japanese pirates.
However, the fact is just the opposite.
If it is really as recorded in the Tang Bao, it can only explain: first, the soldiers of the guards have declined so badly that they are unbearable to fight; This group of Japanese pirates is a special kind of Japanese pirates.
Do such Japanese pirates exist? !
existing.
At least Zhu Pingan believed it, because Zhu Pingan had read a record about Japanese pirates in the Ming Dynasty in modern times. With heavy casualties, it took a lot of effort to encircle and wipe out this group of fierce Japanese in Suzhou.
50 Japanese pirates were able to attack Nanjing City, and they retreated completely!
Therefore, it is not impossible for 150 Japanese pirates to defeat the coalition forces of Master Liu and Xu Qianhu, the prefect of Shaoxing.
This is a dangerous slug!
Zhu Ping'an came to a seemingly nonsense conclusion.
Must pay more attention!
According to the records of Tang Bao, these Japanese pirates disappeared by the Qiantang River. I don't know where their next attack target will be. Calculate the distance. Therefore, we must be vigilant and strengthen our vigilance to prevent this group of Japanese pirates from fleeing to the vicinity to commit crimes.
In addition, the Tang Newspaper also emphasized that all ministries are on standby, and will immediately move out as soon as there is a transfer order.
Although there are a lot of regular troops near Yingtianfu, according to common sense, it is estimated that the militia group of my own will not be needed, but it is not certain, and we must be prepared to be recruited to participate in the suppression of Japanese.
This group of Japanese pirates are not ordinary Japanese pirates!
The Shaoxing coalition army has a total of 3,000 people, and more than 1,000 of them are regular troops of the guard. They can't do anything to this group of Japanese pirates. The 700 militiamen who have only been trained for more than half a month are definitely not opponents.
Need to further strengthen training! So as not to become cannon fodder and affect the overall situation of the Japanese suppression!
"This group of Japanese pirates is extraordinary. We must be prepared to be recruited to take part in the extermination of this gang of tyrannical Japanese pirates. We must further strengthen our training. We sweat more in peacetime and bleed less in wartime. We have to be **** ourselves when we strike iron."
In the afternoon, Zhu Pingan called all the soldiers of the Zhejiang Army at the Taohuaji school grounds, and announced the content of the Tang Bao to everyone in a concise and concise manner, making them ready to be recruited to suppress the Japanese, emphasizing further strengthening of training.
At the same time, in order to stimulate everyone's enthusiasm for training, Zhu Pingan also specially held a solemn flag-presenting ceremony for Zhu Daniu, Lin Ergou, and He Bridegroom.
"Zhu Daniu, step forward to receive the flag! The red color must always be dyed, and the tip of the knife must be sharpened. I give you the sharp knife flag, and I hope you will continue to work hard, and don't live up to the name of the sharp knife!"
"Lin Ergou, step forward to receive the flag! The soldiers are full of courage, and Feidi breaks the wolf camp. I give you the Feidi flag, and I hope you will continue to work hard, and don't let Feidi's name live up to it!"
"Congratulations to the bridegroom, step forward to receive the flag! Tigers wear golden armor in every battle, and they will not return it until they break the enemy camp. Give you the armor-breaking flag. I hope you will continue to work hard, and don't live up to the name of armor-breaking!"
Zhu Ping'an personally awarded the Jiandao Banner, Feidy Banner, and Armor-breaking Banner to Zhu Daniu, Lin Ergou, and He Bridegroom.
"The flag is with the people, but the flag is dead and the people are dead!"
After Zhu Daniu, Lin Ergou and He Bridegroom took over the Wu flag, they led the three Wu soldiers to kneel down and swear.
After the flag presentation, the Zhejiang Army began training. Zhu Pingan increased the intensity of their training. Zhu Pingan ordered everyone in the Zhejiang army to make two small sandbags, and ordered them to tie them to their legs for training.
In addition, Zhu Pingan also added musket shooting training to them, and borrowed 10 musket instructors from the water army camp in Linhuaihou to teach them musket shooting. On the basis of respecting the teachings of musketeers, Zhu Pingan also combined modern experience to hang a brick on the barrel of the gun to strengthen their stability training.
Zhu Ping'an received the pond report, and Hu Zongxian, who was inspecting the "Zhenwei Camp" in the Beijing camp, also received the pond report.
"What?! Old Yushi Qian was killed!"
Hu Zongxian was shocked, sad and angry when he read the Tang newspaper's record that Qian Lao Yushi's family was massacred by Japanese pirates!
Hu Zongxian had been taken care of by Qian Lao Yushi before, and he was grateful to Qian Lao Yushi, so he sent troops to **** Qian Lao Yushi back to his hometown when Ying Tian parted the day before yesterday. Heaven and man are separated forever! More than 100 soldiers and more than 100 escorts failed to prevent this tragedy!
"This group of Japanese pirates is full of evil! I swear to tear you to pieces!" Hu Zongxian slammed the table hard and said angrily.
"Back to the city!"
After reading the Tang newspaper, Hu Zongxian was no longer in the mood for inspections. He hurriedly ended the inspection of Zhenwei Camp, and hurried all the way back to Yingtian Inner City. After entering the city, he went to the Ministry of War non-stop. The second is to meet with Zhang Shangshu to discuss the suppression of Japanese.
Hu Zongxian saw more detailed information about the Japanese invasion in the archives of the Ministry of War as he wished, and saw more details that were not recorded in the Tang newspaper, including the detailed scene description of Qian Lao Yushi's murder. Qian Lao Yushi was stabbed in the body and his head was cut off. , not even a whole body was left, the clothes of the concubines in the same sedan chair were disheveled, and no one in the family survived... The more Hu Zongxian looked at it, the more he hated and killed the Japanese pirates, and he gritted his teeth and swore: "I won't kill you!" This group of Japanese pirates, I'm sorry for the holy majesty, I'm sorry for the people who were killed, and I'm sorry for Qian Lao Yushi
A family of young and old! "
"Master Hu, Master Zhang please." The guard came in to report.
"Thank you!"
Hu Zongxian nodded in thanks, and went to meet Zhang Jing with the guards.
