Chapter 1421

Han Yu strode towards the stockade.

There are watchtowers around the village. After seeing Han Yu, he immediately drew his longbow.

"Who, stop!"

"My own people, don't do it."

Han Yu said quickly.

The people in the observation tower breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that Han Yu's disheveled hair was not Manqing's money rat tail.

In this era, 90% of people who can still grow long hair are loyal to Daming and can be trusted.

However, they still did not relax their vigilance and sent someone to check Han Yu's identity.

A small group of Zhuang Ding came out of the stockade, holding spears and machetes in their hands, and carefully surrounded Han Yu.

"Who are you? Where are you from?"

The leader Zhuang Ding asked.

"Dare to ask who is in charge of Prince Mu's Mansion above Guizhuang. I am the special envoy of His Majesty Daming Yongli. I have important matters and I need to see the owner immediately."

Han Yu arched his hands towards the sky.

Hearing the word Yongli, the Zhuang Dings all became serious.

"You come with us, it's up to the owner to decide whether to see you or not."

The leader Zhuang Ding took Han Yu into the village.

Several Zhuang Ding looked at Han Yu stubbornly from behind, and the spear in their hands was only an inch away from Han Yu's back.

Han Yu didn't take it seriously, and looked at the situation in the village.

There are a lot of people in the village, and they are mainly young and strong, and there are fewer old and young. The clothes on their bodies are all Ming Dynasty style, and they look good. The villages are all double-storey wooden buildings, and pigs, chickens, ducks and other livestock are raised below. , people live on it.

"They are all young and strong, and they are a force that can be used when pulled up."

Han Yu kept evaluating the situation in the village.

Soon, Han Yu was brought to a wooden building.

On the terrace of the wooden building, stood a strong man, in his forties, he could be seen as a member of the army, with an unconcealable evil spirit on his body.

Behind him stood a man and a woman. The man was in his twenties, with a face like a crown jade, a long sword in his waist, and a heroic spirit.

The woman was only sixteen or seventeen years old, she also had a dagger at her waist, and her gestures were very neat.

The three of them are very similar in appearance, it seems that they should be father and son, father and daughter.

"Grandpa." Zhuang Ding quickly saluted after seeing the strong man.

"Master Guo? Could it be..." Han Yu moved in his heart, brushed away his long hair that blocked his face, and raised his head and said, "Grand Duke Qian, don't come here without any problems."

"His Royal Highness!"

Seeing Han Yu's face, the strong man quickly ran down the stairs and knelt down in front of Han Yu.

"Your Highness, I heard that you were brought back to Spring City by Wu Sangui, a gangster. I am gathering troops to rescue you. You..."

Seeing the other party's appearance, Han Yu has already confirmed that the other party is the contemporary Qian Guogong, the master of Mu Palace, Mu Tianbo.

"Duke Qian, didn't you die in the Battle of Mana Water Beach? Why..."

Han Yu asked.

"I'm ashamed to say that I passed out on the battlefield with all my strength. Thanks to a few cronies who picked me up from the pile of dead people and took me back here, I gathered some remnants of soldiers and refugees who didn't want to submit to the Manchu Qing, and felled trees here for Fortress, gather strength and prepare to fight against the Qing.”

"Your Highness, you are back, Your Majesty..."

Mu Tianbo asked.

Hearing this, Han Yu pretended to be sad and shook his head: "Father has already been killed by that dog thief Wu Sangui. I took advantage of their unpreparedness and killed the guards and ran out all the way."

"Your Majesty, all ministers are incompetent."

Although he was prepared in his heart, after learning of Yongli's death, Mu Tianbo crawled on the ground, punched the ground, and cried bitterly.

The surrounding Zhuang Ding also knelt down.

"Governor Qian, please raise your voice. The female cadre is very powerful, and the country is in trouble. It is not the king's crime. Please take care of your body, keep a useful body, and look for opportunities to avenge your majesty, except for that thief."

"I, Mu Tianbo, take blood as my

I swear, I won't get rid of that dog thief Wu Sangui in this life, and I swear I won't be a human being. "

Mu Tianbo cut his middle finger and swore to Tianming.

Han Yu watched for fear that he might get a tetanus infection.

Mu Tianbo is the only general he can point to right now, so there is no room for loss.

"Duke Qian, get up, it's windy outside, let's talk inside."

Han Yu quickly pulled Mu Tianbo up.

"I was negligent, Your Highness, please come inside."

Mu Tianbo let Han Yu into the small building.

"What is Duke Qian's plan for next?"

Han Yu asked.

"Of course it is to gather the remnants of the army, gather the refugees, prepare for training, and assassinate Wu Sangui, the female gangster, to avenge His Majesty."

Mu Tianbo said.

"Just relying on a long spear and a machete?"

Han Yu asked.

"Your Highness?"

Mu Tianbo didn't understand what Han Yu meant.

"Courage is commendable, but now the enemy army is so powerful that it is not too much to say that I am a hundred times a thousand times stronger than me. Only relying on blood and bravery can't accomplish anything. Doesn't Duke Qian understand the battle at Curse Water Beach?"

Han Yu said.

Hearing Han Yu mentioning the cursed water beach, Mu Tianbo's momentum weakened.

The battle at Cursed Water Beach is something he still doesn't want to think about. A large number of robes were wiped out in that battle. Facts have proved that in the face of absolute numbers, blood and bravery alone cannot change the overall situation.

"But, I really have no other choice."

"Since the year of Chongzhen, I have fought and lost many times in Ming Dynasty, which has already shown that the previous tactics are outdated. Now if I stick to the old things, I can only linger on and cannot change the overall situation. I want to overthrow the Manchu Qing and restore my clothes. , we must abolish the old system, reform and establish a new one, and train a new army. Only in this way can there be hope.”

"Your Highness, please give me the method of training soldiers."

Mu Tianbo said hastily.

"Leave aside those who don't teach me, I just have an idea, tell me, is it feasible to ask Duke Qian to help me as a staff officer?"

Han Yu sorted out his thoughts and said.

"Now, the gap between our army and the Qing Dynasty is the huge difference in numbers. This has led to the fact that our number is small, we cannot die, and we cannot afford to die. The death or injury of every soldier is a huge loss to us. Therefore, the training method of the new army is to reduce casualties as much as possible, and at the same time cause as much damage as possible to the opponent."

"Do you want to imitate the elites of the Manchu Eight Banners and wear double armor?" Mu Tianbo asked.

People in the world say that the Eight Banners are unparalleled in riding and shooting, but they are actually bragging. The real strength of the Eight Banners is the heavy infantry wearing double armor, and the heavy infantry is also relied on to compete for the world.

It's just that, later on, I even forgot what I started with.

"Double armor is just a bad strategy." Han Yu shook his head, "No matter how thick the defense is, it's not as good as dodge. No matter how high the defense is, there will be times when the armor is broken. So, what I mean is to make the opponent unable to hit as much as possible. Only if it is less than that, casualties can be reduced, or even zero casualties.”

Although there were some Internet jargon in Han Yu's words, Mu Tianbo couldn't understand them, but he understood the general meaning.

If you can really make your troops have low casualties, or even zero casualties, but can deal a huge blow to the enemy, then what if the enemy is thousands of times stronger?

It can always be consumed little by little.

"What good recipe does Your Highness have? Feel free to ask, as long as it can be done, I will help His Highness realize it even if I am heartbroken."
