All the internal affairs offices in various places were mobilized, and the money flow of money in the money house increased dramatically. The entire Ming Dynasty nobles, merchants and gentry class all participated in this war.

The same is true for the people everywhere, both directly and indirectly, all involved in this war.

Liaodong, Jinzhou.

As the base where the imperial court advanced north this time, Jinzhou is now very busy, all kinds of supplies were taken out of the warehouse, and countless weapons were also equipped.

The granary for storing grain was opened and countless grains were moved out.

Dingguo Duke Xu Wenbi walked on the school ground, and Li Chengliang was accompanied by him. After following the army to Jinzhou, Xu Wenbi stayed. He was here to visit the Liaodong Army today.

The Ming Dynasty's current army is very strong, everyone knows this.

From the Northwest Army to the Liaodong Army to the Ji Liao Army, and finally to the Jingying Camp, it can be said that he was definitely a powerful general. As Duke Dingguo, Xu Wenbi also saw a lot, but this time it was different.

This time Xu Wenbi came to fight, so he was particularly concerned about the Liaodong Army.

"Duke Ding, look, these are the four major military branches of our Liaodong Army!" Li Chengliang pointed to the four teams in front of him and said with a smile: "All of them are fierce soldiers. This time, we must destroy the Taining army in one battle."

In fact, Li Chengliang still felt a little uncomfortable.

His goal is the most powerful Duoyan tribe, because the grassland of Duoyan tribe is the best, but now the emperor asks you to attack the Taining tribe, you can't say that I don't want to attack the Taining tribe, and I want to attack the Duoyan tribe, which is not realistic.

Xu Wenbi was too lazy to care about what Li Chengliang thought. If the emperor asked you to attack Taining's tribe, then you had to attack Taining's tribe, and there was no need to discuss it.

"Come on, General Li tell me about it!" Xu Wenbi pointed to the soldiers in front of him and said.

"Okay!" Li Chengliang nodded with a smile: "Here, the musket soldiers and all equipped coercion guns. Since they were equipped with such coercion guns, our Ming Dynasty musket soldiers have become very strong."

Xu Wenbi nodded, of course he had seen you with the new type of musket.

The fire speed is fast, the range is long, and the firepower is strong. There are many advantages, especially after being equipped with bayonets, the musket soldiers finally got rid of the constraints of incoming battles and completely let go of the reins.

In this case, all the spearmen in the army were abandoned.

"Here, the gun cavalry, they are equipped with not a coercion, but a rotary musket. I heard that it seems to be a rotary wheel made by a man named Xu Guangqi from the Royal Academy of Sciences in Beijing."

"It's the one who made the clock, a very powerful person!" Li Chengliang sighed: "Duke Ding should be more clear, right?"

Of course, Xu Wenbi knew better that Xu Guangqi was deeply trusted by His Majesty, and that clock made him rich. Every time a clock was sold, the Ministry of Internal Affairs would share his share.

As for the price of the seat clock, it can make Xu Wenbi feel a toothache, but it can be imagined how expensive it is.

The key is that there are too many rooms in the house, so you can’t just buy one, right? How could Xu Wenbi not have toothache when he sells it tens of thousands of taels? But the one sold is so good that you can’t buy it for ordinary people.

Xu Wenbi also knew that this type of rotary musket was so expensive.

"General Li, how many gun cavalry do you have here?" Xu Wenbi couldn't help but turn his head to look at Li Chengliang. Since the existence of this type of rotating musket, the cavalry of the Ming Dynasty have basically been gun cavalry.

"Only five thousand people!" Li Chengliang said helplessly.

"I have applied like the court many times, but no one has paid attention to me!"

Xu Wenbi nodded, but was not surprised. It would be right if no one paid attention to you. It would be a lot for you to give you ten thousand wheeled muskets. How many do you want? How many are you so beautiful?

Unlike the long spears of the mesh rope gun, this type of rotary musket is very short.

The length is only the length of the forearm, so that it is convenient to load it on the horse. Each gun cavalry is equipped with two, one on the left and right, and there is a leather holster immediately, which can be easily put in.

Xu Wenbi also had two handfuls, so he put them on his right.

As far as Xu Wenbi knows, there are now 10,000 such gun cavalry in Jiliao, and the largest number of Jingjian camps, with a total of 30,000. Xu Wenbi has never doubted whether he can fight. He has seen gun cavalry performing martial arts.

Although the range of the rotary musket of the gun cavalry is only thirty steps, the cavalry is very fast and can make up for the distance to a certain extent.

The unfolding cavalry rushed over, and tens of thousands of guns fired at the same time, and two guns were fired. Basically, in one round, how many people could be left on the opposite side? Xu Wenbi felt that if he was on the opposite side, he would definitely be too weak.

"Duke Ding, here are artillery soldiers!" Xu Wenbi said, pointing to the soldiers not far away.

In front of these artillery soldiers, there was a small cannon, half a man tall, and a short cannon, and a strange-shaped warhead was placed on the ground next to it. Xu Wenbi knew this thing, which was made by the Wubeisi, and seemed to be called a mortar.

In fact, this thing is far from a mortar. If you have to say something, Zhu Yijun thinks this thing looks more like a heartless cannon.

The focus of improvement is on artillery shells. Now the shells of this kind of mortar are evolved from flowering shells. They are no longer round, so they are more like mortar shells from later generations, with tails, ballistics, and accurate shooting.

Of course, because there is no bottom line, this thing uses the previous inspiration method.

Ignite with a torch and then fire it out. It is considered a semi-finished mortar, which is simply like the mortar of later generations. The shells are put into the cannon barrel and then fired out with a "bang".

This thing needs to be loaded and ignited, but the shells look very much like later generations of mortars.

Zhu Yijun never thought that the Martial Arts could be made, but who would have thought that it would have been made. After the development of this kind of four-dimensional cannon, Zhu Yijun quickly realized the advantages of this thing.

This is the best before the bottom shell is built.

Xu Wenbi has naturally seen this kind of cannon. It is easy to carry, has great explosion power and fast firing speed. It is the best among the field cannons in the Ming Dynasty. Seeing these equipment, Xu Wenbi was relieved.

"General Li, do you have grenades here?" Xu Wenbi asked.

Xu Wenbi was very impressed with the grenade. The thing was quite powerful. He had seen it in the Beijing Camp. As for whether the Liaodong Army was available, Xu Wenbi really didn't know.

"Yes, but not many!" Li Chengliang said directly: "The Military Affairs Office only gave me three thousand pieces."

Xu Wenbi nodded. This was the purpose of preparing for the Northern Expedition. The imperial court had newly allocated it to the past two years, otherwise the Liaodong Army would not have been able to get the grenades.

The grenades in the Ming Dynasty were not high-tech products at all, but earthy grenades.
