Wu Changqing and other generals came to another hall, and Liu Hansan was the first to curse: "The court did not put us in its eyes. We occupied most of the Suzhou Mansion, and a soldier wanted to send us away."

"The Zheng family in the imperial court, have they ever won a battle? Have they killed a Qing army? One by one is either a marquis or an earl, and our general is desperate on the front line. There is actually only one commander, not even a title. "

Li Shaobin is also holding injustices for Wu Changqing, and of course, he is also holding injustices for himself.

Only when Wu Changqing got the high rewards, the rewards of their subordinates could follow the high rewards. If Wu Changqing had only one commander, they wouldn't expect any good rewards.

Wu Changqing motioned everyone to stop first, and then said: "Now that King Tang and King Lu coexist, it is really difficult for us to choose. I personally think that we don't need to rush to accept the reward for the time being, as long as we continue to grow our strength and occupy more territory. At that time, the court never dared to lose our reward."

"Yes, let's accumulate strength first. The present reward is just a title. Anyway, they won't give us reinforcements for a soldier or a grain."

Liu Hansan seconded.

.......

"General Chen, is there any movement from the Qing army in Changzhou?"

Wu Changqing asked.

Chen Shichang, who is in charge of patrolling and guarding, stood up and replied: "Not yet."

"This is weird. Doesn't the Qing court want this Suzhou anymore, otherwise how could it not send troops over?"

Liu Hansan was very puzzled.

At this time, Wu Changqing was beginning to recall. He was relatively familiar with Nan Ming's history, but this period of time was too busy, not deliberately recalling, and some things could not be remembered.

Now that he noticed the abnormality of the Qing army, he recalled it again, and recalled some history.

Wu Changqing felt that if he remembered correctly, Li Zicheng seemed to be dead now, and his subordinates without a leader, it seemed that all of them had returned to Hunan Governor He Tengjiao at this time.

He Tengjiao got the 100,000 army and his strength greatly increased, and then he began to attack the Jiujiang area of ​​Nanchang, Jiangxi. Later, it was Luke Dehun from Nanjing who led his troops to defeat He Tengjiao.

Doing the math, it seems to be at this time.

With the answer, Wu Changqing's mood improved again. The Eight Banners soldiers of Lek Dehun were much better than those of Liu Liangzuo and Li Chengdong.

Now that he went to deal with He Tengjiao, he had more time to develop.

As for Liu Liangzuo or Li Chengdong, he is not so worried now. As long as they dare to come, he can teach these people a lesson.

"It's better not to come, we have more time to prepare. However, we can't be careless, so I am going to recruit another 3,000 soldiers and concentrate on training first. When the war starts later, I can supplement each department at any time.

With Chen Daolin's funding, Wu Changqing is now relatively wealthy and can recruit more troops.

"Actually, recruiting soldiers is easy, and the key lies in ordnance. If there is more fire in the army, our strength will also increase."

Liu Hansan said that he is obsessed with firecrackers now, and very much wants to replace his subordinate weapons with firecrackers.

"There are so many craftsmen, I can't come in a hurry."

Wu Changqing said.

"General, we can send a small group of troops to attack the surrounding small county towns. There is no need to occupy them all. We just need to break through the city, and then bring all the artisans in the city."

Dai Zhijun made a suggestion, which was approved by everyone.

For small counties like Wujiang County with fewer troops, it is easier to attack. The main reason why they don't fight now is because they don't have so many troops to garrison.

But now, Dai Zhijun said, we can just get those craftsmen over without the site.

Wu Changqing thought for a while and felt that the idea was not bad, and then let Liu Hansan, Wang Dayong, and Wu Yi take troops to attack Jiangyin, Xishan, Songjiang and other counties.

In this operation, they don't want a site, as long as the craftsman, by the way, grab the coffers of the county office.

Whether it is weapons or money, the more such things are, the better.

A few days later, Nanjing.

Hong Chengchou received the latest battle report, Jiangyin, Xishan and other places were attacked by Suzhou rebels.

The strange thing is that after the rebels captured these places, they did not stay garrisoned. They just robbed the warehouse and gathered the artisans from the city.

Is this to build a firecracker?

Hong Chengchou quickly guessed Wu Changqing's purpose, because many previous battle reports mentioned that the firearms of the Suzhou rebels were extremely fierce.

Not only the shooting distance is long, but the rate of fire is very fast, and there is no need for a matchstick to ignite.

In several battles, the Qing army suffered from this kind of firearm.

From the battle report, Hong Chengchou still couldn't imagine what that kind of firearm looked like, but seeing that Wu Changqing sent troops to capture the county abductees in order to build these firecrackers, he could also guess that this kind of weapon must be very useful.

"Call Guan Changlin to see me."

Hong Chengchou told the soldiers that he would send someone to arrange some meticulous work to go to Suzhou to find a way to get the secret of this new style of firecracker.

If he can obtain the manufacturing technology of this new type of firecracker, he can summon craftsmen to imitate and increase combat power.

The ancients just lacked knowledge, but they did not lack wisdom.

Elites like Hong Chengchou, who are both civil and military, are very receptive to advanced weapons. He just heard that the new type of firecracker works well, he has already wondered how to imitate it.

This reaction speed is considered very fast.

Of course, he was also forced.

Originally, he wanted to make Lucky a bit harder and personally lead his troops to break through Suzhou.

But no one would have thought that Jiujiang and other places were in a hurry at this time, and He Tengjiao led tens of thousands of horses to attack Jiangxi and Anhui.

He Tengjiao won Li Zicheng's Dashun Army, with more than 100,000 troops, and they are all veterans who have fought. There are only a few thousand rebels in Suzhou, and they are all newly recruited recruits.

Compared with the threat of He Tengjiao, the threat of this small group of rebels in Suzhou is nothing.

Therefore, Leke Dehun did not hesitate, and directly led his troops to Jiujiang. As for the rebels in Suzhou, Luc Dehun said that it would be fine to hand it over to Liu Liangzuo.

After all, Liu Liangzuo also has more than 30,000 troops. Even if he can't attack Suzhou, he still has no problem encircling Suzhou and trapping the rebels in the city.

As long as he solves He Tengjiao, the rebels will not be able to take it at any time.

Naturally, Hong Chengchou agreed with Luc Dehun's strategy. He had already given Liu Liangzuo an order to prepare for war.

Because he was worried about Liu Liangzuo's loss of the firecrackers, he moved to steal the secrets of the rebel firecrackers.

At the same time, he also transferred a large number of old-style firecrackers from the warehouse to Liu Liangzuo.
