The Travelers of the Heavens

Rooster Land, Guangdong Province of the Qing Empire, Humen Fort faces the direction of the land.

Twenty-five thousand Kyushu New Army soldiers built a ring of fortifications. Thirty heavy machine guns have been set up, and the soldiers are ready, waiting only for the Qing Green Battalion to enter the firing range.

Since Chu Bufan, who is in charge of the military project, is a German-Austrian stick, the weapons and equipment of the Kyushu New Army have a German-Austrian flavor to some extent. Their rifles are an improved version of the real-life fast rifle (PS: Austrian Mannlicher rifle) ;The machine gun is a lightweight MG08, but its rate of fire is too slow, only 300 rounds per minute.

When Chu Bufan was in charge of the production work, he changed the bullets of these two weapons to be universal, and they were both 7.92 mm caliber bullets.

Looking outside the position, the green battalion soldiers of the Qing Army quickly rushed towards the position of the Kyushu New Army, holding flags and holding bows, arrows, spears and swords.

At this time, Chi Lian took the lead in firing. As the trigger was pulled, a 7.92mm rifle bullet flew out of the barrel and went straight to the Qing army's horseback riding general on the opposite side.

"With a"pop" sound, the bullet penetrated the head of the Qing general.

The unlucky guy fell off his horse instantly.

Seeing this, the Qing soldiers around him showed signs of fear of fighting. If other generals hadn't reorganized their formations, I'm afraid these thousands of Qing soldiers would have died. To collapse.

Yes, this is a portrayal of the Green Camp of the Qing Army during the Jiaqing era. A few of them were very brave and tenacious, but the vast majority were no longer suitable to participate in combat. They had neither advanced weapons nor new combat guiding ideology. and theory, not to mention the morale and courage that soldiers must have, they became a group of bastards who were not paid.

This state still exists in the Eight Banners Army, and it is even worse. It can still remain relatively stable during the Jiaqing era and even the Daoguang and Xianfeng eras. The only ones with high combat effectiveness and morale were the fierce ancient cavalry from Chahar outside the Pass, but this force was inevitably submerged in the coming wave of invasion by the great powers against the Qing Empire. The

Qing army continued to advance. Suddenly, the Kyushu soldiers opened fire on the position There was a loud noise, and machine guns and rifles began to fire.

The dense bullets covered the Qing Green Camp soldiers on the opposite side like rain.

Many of them were shot to death before they had time to escape. In just a few minutes, all the thousands of Green Camp soldiers were killed. The army was wiped out and there were no survivors.

Chi Lian used a sniper rifle to kill twenty people. She was disappointed with this inefficient weapon. If she used her own magic, it would not be a problem to kill hundreds of people instantly in this battle. But she They did not give up the use of muskets, but only regarded them as toys.

The scene in front of another position was similar. Thousands of Green Battalion soldiers were wiped out under the gunfire of the Kyushu New Army.

The two governors of Guangdong attempted to retake the Humen Fort and Pier. Completely bankrupt.

News of the annihilation of more than 10,000 Green Battalion troops returned to the Governor's Mansion in Guangdong City. Ji Qing was so frightened that he did not dare to fight anymore. He only ordered all Green Battalion and Eight Banners troops stationed in the two Guangdong regions to stick to their respective defense lines and not to fight without orders. , and then sent an urgent message to the capital to ask the emperor to make a decision.

On the other side, the messenger who was rushing on the road also delivered Wang Yu's autographed letter to Emperor Jiaqing.

In the Yangxin Palace."My dear friends, what is this Great Zhou Empire like? Country, have you heard about it? Emperor Jiaqing held up the letter and asked the military ministers and bachelors below:

"Your Majesty, this servant has never heard of this Great Zhou Empire. It must be a small and remote country," Military Minister Qinggui said first.

Zhang Jiaqinggui was a native of Xianghuang Banner in Manchuria and the son of the great scholar Yin Jishan. He was transferred in the fourth year of Jiaqing (1799 AD). Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, co-organizer of the bachelor's degree, joined the Military Aircraft Department, and later became the bachelor of Wenyuan Pavilion

"A small remote country? Look at the contents of this letter." Emperor Jiaqing asked the eunuch to hand the letter to Qinggui.

""Yes." Qinggui responded, took the letter and read it.

"What?! this"Qinggui was shocked when he read the letter. It turned out that Wang Yu boasted in the letter that his troops were invincible, well-equipped, and numerous. He came this time hoping to make friends with the Qing Dynasty.

"Master Dong, what do you think?" Emperor Jiaqing did not respond to Qinggui, but asked another minister.

Master Dong's name was Dong Gao, whose courtesy name was Yalun. He was a native of Fuyang, Zhejiang Province, and the son of Dong Bangda, Minister of Industry. He was elected in the 29th year of Qianlong's reign (AD 1764) , and later won the top prize. In the fourth year of Jiaqing (1799 AD), when Dong Gao was sixty years old, he was promoted to the bachelor of Wenhua Palace, the foreman of the military minister, the chief master of the study room, and was given the title of riding horse in the Forbidden City.

"Your Majesty, during the reign of Emperor Gaozong, the British Empire was provoking quarrels and causing trouble. Now there are those who claim to be the Great Zhou Empire and are invading our maritime borders. I think it is best to mobilize heavy troops to attack them as soon as possible. I don’t know what the emperor’s will is." Dong Gao thinks that the Great Zhou Empire should be invaded. The Zhou Empire's fleet was defeated

"It’s just that the White Lotus Sect and the Tianli Sect are frequently causing chaos in the northwest, which has trapped my 200,000 troops, and it is difficult to mobilize other troops. How can we mobilize heavy troops to attack quickly?" Emperor Jiaqing was also extremely depressed. He thought he was still diligent. There is no bad government that harms the people. He does not seek prosperity, but only peace at home and abroad so that he can be a peaceful emperor. Why is he now suffering from internal and external troubles? Is the script given to him wrong?

"Your Majesty, in this case, why not send someone to Guangdong Province to see what kind of foreigners are coming this time, and then make a decision?" Qinggui said

"Okay, just send Dai Quheng," Emperor Jiaqing responded.

Dai Quheng is in his forties and is also the minister of military aircraft, but he was not summoned by Emperor Jiaqing to come to the Yangxin Hall for a meeting today. However, Emperor Jiaqing took this incident very seriously. Dai Quheng, the military minister, was sent to Guangdong Province to"investigate"

"Yes, I will go and deliver the master’s instructions later," Qinggui said.

""Yeah." Emperor Jiaqing nodded.

But before Dai Quheng could set out, another urgent message came from eight hundred miles away. News came that Wang Yu had landed and occupied the wharf and fort in Humen. Emperor Jiaqing was furious and ordered the two Guangdong garrisons to""Foreigners" were wiped out to demonstrate the unparalleled power of the Qing Empire.

But at this time, Wang Yu did not passively wait for the Qing army to come and die. Instead, he took the initiative to march into Guangdong City and seize the city and the Governor's Mansion.

Heavy artillery roared and gunshots burst out. In just half an hour, the city of Guangdong fell. On the same day, the Kyushu Army captured the Governor's Mansion and captured the two governors of Guangdong, Ji Qing.

"Are you Ji Qing, the governor of Guangdong and Guangdong?"Wang Yu looked at the slightly embarrassed Ji Qing being held by two Kyushu soldiers and asked in Manchu

"Exactly." Ji Qing was a little confused when he saw the man in front of him wearing a red flying fish suit, with his hair tied up in a bun, but talking in many words.

"Don't get me wrong, I just want to express my meaning better," Wang Yu explained.

Here we also have to talk about the language issue between the Zhou Empire and Rooster Land. There is no such thing as Chinese Manchu or other languages ​​in the Zhou Empire, only Zhou language It is also called the Luoyi Mandarin language. The Huns under the rule of the Five Shanyus of the Xiongnu also used Zhou dialect to talk. This language is completely different from modern Chinese or other languages ​​in Gongji Land. The Zhou language or Luoyi Mandarin spoken here is also a language. Foreign language is not an exaggeration at all

"Why do you foreigners openly invade our Qing territory?" Ji Qing asked

"Foreigners? Do you think we look like foreigners?"Wang Yu, Chu Bufan and others joked

"There must be something wrong with his eyes. How do we look like foreigners?"

"Yes, how can we be foreigners?"

Chu Bufan and others also ridiculed

"Maybe because our country is to the west of this big rooster, they mistakenly thought that we were also Westerners, another type of Westerners." After the teasing, Chu Bufan said

"This makes some sense. After all, as long as they are not under the jurisdiction of the Qing Dynasty or a vassal country, they all consider them foreigners." Wang Yu nodded after listening to Chu Bufan's words.

"Ji Qing, I am not here to fight, I am here to make friends with your emperor. To be honest, in your words, I am also a prince, or an iron-hatted prince." Wang Yu gestured while talking to Ji Qing in Manchu.

When Ji Qing heard that the other party was actually a prince in his own country, he was even more surprised. Did he really come to make friends? Then wouldn't my more than 10,000 green camp and several thousand naval officers and soldiers have died in vain?
