Chongzhen, August 1629, Chen Ziwen reported the interception of several letters sent to Fengxin, Jiangxi Province by Bai Zhanying, the factory director of the arsenal. The letters contained scientific and technical secrets concerning the Tianvale Army, such as the application of internal combustion engine tools and the drawing of machine guns.

You know, Bai Zhanmao and Honda Yicheng were his left hand in the field of scientific research, missing a left hand, of course they were sad. Opening the letters of Bai Zhanmao's to examine the contents of the letters, and sure enough, there was a large amount of discussion about the scientific information concerning Zhu Ci's private transmission, and seeing that the recipient's name was Changkang, they asked Chen Ziwen if the Changkang investigation had been made clear?

Chen Ziwen replied, "Changkang is an enemy, surnamed Song, surnamed Ying. Jiang Xi is a Han, and he's around forty-three years old. As for the enemy's background, I'm investigating in the direction of the Embroidered Uniform Guard."

Zhu Ci was startled. He had read about history in junior high school: Song Yingxing, the author of the "Blessing of Heaven". Was this extraordinary person a character of this era? How could I not know? He slapped his thigh and rose from his seat.

Chen Ziwen thought that Zhu Ci was about to give the order to capture the two men, so he immediately stood up straight and saluted.

Zhu Ci couldn't suppress the joy in his heart and laughed out loud. "Send a message to Qin Baisheng ordering him to Xia Men with the highest etiquette: Song Yingxing is invited to be the director of research and development. No matter what, invite him and his family to live in peace." With that, he wrote the military order, covered it up and handed it to Chen Ziwen.

In order to deal with these people, he even called back Yao Xiaoshan from his superior position (Taiwan — Netherlands) and sent him to Song Yingxing's side. From the way the military commander looked, it seemed that this person was very important.

Watching Chen Ziwen go out to pass the order, Zhu Ci once again emphasized that his attitude must be good. He was happy, but had to be a good boy. He obediently went home.

Chongzhen 2, late August 1629, Song Yingxing at the invitation of his good friend Bai Zhan, moved the family down, officially took office in Xiamen, bicycle also officially commercial production.

Chongzhen two years, in September 1629, Tiansuo military factory assembly line internal combustion engine machine, monthly production of high-quality machine guns up to 1,000, Jinmen port to Quanzhou City rail laying completed.

Chongzheng, in late October 1629, under the witness of numerous people, the first train, the Tianvale, was officially commercial, and the head of the weight factory, Honda Shinshiro, was invited to take this century's train and make an important speech. The monster train, which would move on its own, shocked the entire southern part of the Ming Dynasty, but Shuntian, of course, was not in such a good mood to listen to the news, for on October 27, the imperial army split into three roads and attacked Da-an all the way, killing the entire town of the Zhou Dynasty.

Chongzhen 2, November 1629, after the Jin Emperor Taiji personally oversaw the army to avoid Yuan Chonghuan's Ningjin (Ningyuan - Jinzhou defense line), but passed through Inner Mongolia, from the Xinfeng Pass into Longjing Pass, under the guidance of the Karzin Taichi Bulga Mongol, to attack the Hongshan Pass. The other generals led their troops to attack Daankou, forming a siege once the city was reunited. On the fourth day of the month, Zhao led his horse west, marching for three days and nights before arriving at the camp. Zhu Guoyan, the commander in chief, refused to let him in for a rest because he was afraid that spies would sneak into the city. Zhao had no choice but to lead his horse and lead the troops westward. On the fourth day of the battle, Zhao was shot with an arrow and killed in the battle of Zhaozhen, known as the battle of Zhaohua, which ended in the destruction of the whole army. After losing reinforcements, the city of Zunhua fell, the soldiers surrendered, took care of Wang Yuanya, Li Daoming, He Tianpeng, Xu Ze of Zunhua county, Wu Qi of the former county of Zunhua county, and so on. They refused to defend the city, and all those who broke the city died. After the Jin army entered the outskirts of Beijing (Shuntian -- now Beijing), the imperial court issued a decree instructing the king to work diligently everywhere. After that, the Golden Army successively captured Gou'an, Luanzhou and Yongping.

Although Fan Wencheng was a Confucian scholar, he was very handsome and tall. He looked like a tiger general, and he was not afraid of fighting. When he went to war with the army, he fought valiantly, was good at stratagem, and could speak eloquently. Therefore, he made many meritorious deeds, and recruited five cities, namely Pan Family, Ma Yu, Shan Tun Camp, Ma fen Guan, and Da An Kou. The Ming army besieged the city of the Great Ankou, and he went to war in his armor, leading gunners and slaughtering many of the Ming army. On the eleventh of November, Emperor Taiji led the army to attack Yan Jing. He left behind Ying Er Dai, the Rangers Li Si Zhong and Fan Wencheng, as well as eight other troops. This Fan Wenxian was one of the eight hundred soldiers stationed there.

In the same month, Fujian, the arsenal completed the development of machine guns, a total of 80 rounds were fired at a time, a total of 5 holes were turned back and forth, and a new machine tool was set up for mass production. At the same time, the shipbuilders of the largest shipyard in the world did not understand why such a huge shipyard was being built until Director Song Yingxing and others arrived with the famous father of the internal combustion engine, Honda Suo.

Surprisingly, Xiong Wencai, Qin Yisheng, Li Lianjie, and Gongzhi Qinglong received an edict from the Emperor (Chong Zhen had no idea that Zhu Ci had two other teachers).

Chongzhen, two years ago, in November 1629, Zhu Ci was surprised to see Chen Ziwen, Qin Yisheng, Li Lianjie, and Gongzhi Qinglong at the same time in the office of the Meizhou district.

He was in a bad mood, of course, since he had just finished his archery practice in the yard and was sleeping in his mother's arms, and he had to lie to get out of the house. He saw them standing there and said in a bad mood: "What, we are all busy with matters in the military. Are you free?"

Li Lianjie said, "Army Commander, the Golden Soldiers surround Yan Jing and send us an imperial edict."

Zhu Ci lightly knocked on the table and said, "What do you think we should do?"

Li Lianjie said, "This subordinate does not know. I am here to ask for instructions from the commander." The meaning behind those words were obvious, not a doubt.

Zhu Ci looked at Qin Baisheng and Gongzhi Qing Long and asked, "What about the two of you?"

Qin Baisheng and Gongzhi Qinglong shook their heads as they stared at him.

Zhu Chi looked over each of their faces and said, "Then what are you doing here? Do you have nothing else to do? However, it's still the same, training the troops! "

When he finished speaking, the four of them stood there motionlessly, ready to attack.

Qin Wentian drew in a deep breath, as if he was trying to act boldly. He said to Zhu Ci: "Reporting to the military commander, this subordinate believes that Yan Jing is the Great Ming Empire. The military commander has always taught people. If a nation is in trouble, then of course they are responsible."

Zhua Qi sat in a comfortable position on the chair, lifted his calves onto the desk and said: "What, you're so tough now, use the words I've taught you to block me? Alright, you're so patriotic, go to Beijing and save yourself!"

Seeing that the commander was so angry, Qin Baisheng and the rest didn't dare to say a word.

Chen Ziwen saw that the situation had turned cold, and luckily, he said, "Commander, Old Bear is saying that Yan Jing is the capital of Han Chinese. Now that it is surrounded by barbarians, if the city is destroyed, the Han people would lose all their glory."

He stared at Chen Ziwen, wanting to know when this guy got mad. Recently, this guy didn't complain about Da Ming's eight shares of government and sometimes even mentioned that he had no other choice, which made Zhu Ci a little suspicious of him.

Chen Ziwen saw Zhu Ci's eyes staring at him, so he had to lower his head.

If they were ordered to do as they please now, they would do as they said, but they could not help but feel discontent, it seems that the Ming dynasty still held some prestige in the hearts of the people, so they looked towards Gongzhi Qing Long who did not speak, and said: "Qing Long, give me a reason, why must I go to the Otherworldly King, even if I don't go, is there anyone else?"

Gongzhi Qinglong was stunned for a moment, and then he thought, "Because the military commander is the leader of our Sun Moon Cult, and this Da Ming is the leader of our sect. If Sect Leader Zhang was killed by an outsider, the entire sect would lose face, and if everyone was lucky enough to fail to save him, I Da Ming will be in danger!"

Li Lianjie interrupted, "And the soldiers' patriotism is hard to resist. Please grant it, sir." Seeing Zhu Ci staring at him, Li Lianjie felt that he was right, but he did not dare to look him in the eye.

Zhu Chi tapped his finger on the table again and sighed, "It's not that I don't want to save you, but I saved you once and I can't save you that many times. Of course, right now, Yuan Chonghuan is still fine, and our nature is a little different from his. He was appointed by the court and we built him by ourselves, but you guys just watch, Yuan Chonghuan will definitely die at the hands of Chongzhen, and the Zhu Family has been the emperor for so many years.

Everyone heard the military commander talking about Yuan Chonghuan. These days, they had seen him in the military newspaper created by Zhu Ci (Intelligence) and knew that he was highly valued by the military and had been hunted by the Son of Heaven. Hearing the military commander say that this person was destined to die at the hands of Chong Zhen, he felt that it was a little over the top. Chen Ziwen had a strange look on his face as he listened to his comments about Chongzhen and the Zhu family.

Chen Ziwen replied: "If the Chinese were to fight, our Heavenly Valve Army would not help, but if the foreign invaders attack, it would be hard to calm the brothers down."

Seeing that they all dared to force their way into the palace, Zhu Ci said, "Alright, I will help this dangerous Ming once, and the result will depend on his luck. You all have to listen to my orders, muster five hundred falcons, two thousand five hundred machine gun cavalry, and one thousand artillery battalions at Wenzhou City. Under the direct command of the First Division Commander Li Lianjie, I immediately arrived and took charge of the North Working King, ordering Wentworth to transport the rations along the Jinghang Canal, under the supervision of the Second Division Chief of the Navy, Gong Qilong." With that, he wrote down ten military orders and gave them to Chen Ziwen, saying, "Go and do what you need to!"

At the same time, they asked Chen Ziwen to be the leader of a great service team. Everyone's face was filled with joy as they left with Chen Ziwen.

Zhu Ci looked at the back of the generals and thought: No matter how hard you try, you will die in broad daylight.

Just as the Sky Valve Army was mobilizing their Machine Gun Cavalry, Manchu led 5000 cavalry soldiers to the capital to guard the city and stationed them in Shunyi.

Chong Zhen sent his middle officials to comfort them and reward them with ten thousand taels of silver, so that Mangiu and Hou Shilu could be stationed together at Desheng Gate. Not long after that, they went out to fight. Hou Shilu's team was defeated and Manlou fought his way forward alone. He fired cannon from the top of the city wall to assist him, but he accidentally injured the troops of Manchu, and Manchu, too, was wounded, so the emperor allowed him to rest in the city outside the city gates. When Yuan Chonghuan heard the news, he used the road as a way to enter the city. He led his ancestors' birthday party and entered the city to guard the city. As he passed through the cities of Ji Prefecture, Funing, Yongping, Yunan, Fengliu, and Yutian, he split up his troops and stayed on guard. After being informed, Chong Zhen was very pleased and ordered to reward Yuan Chonghuan's subordinates and have him command reinforcements from various places.

Chongzhen Zhu was summoned by the police to see Yuan Chonghuan. He gave him food, wine, and mink fur to comfort him. Yuan Chonghuan was exhausted from the long journey and requested to enter the city to rest. However, he was rejected. Therefore, Yuan Chonghuan was stationed outside the city and engaged in a fierce battle with the Jin Army. Both sides had a clear victor. Yuan Chonghuan ordered Dai Chengen to form a formation at the Guandong Gate, Zu Dashu to form a formation to the south, Wang Chengyin to the northwest, Yuan Chonghuan to the west to prepare for the battle. At noon, the golden cavalry would attack from the southeast, Zu Dasheng would lead his troops and fight back, while Wang Chengyin would retreat to the south to avoid the battle. Yuan Chonghuan sent Ren Shouzhong and five hundred men to blast down the Golden Battalion. The Jin Army temporarily retreated, led by Liu Yingguo, Luo Jingrong and others to pursue and kill the Jin Army which had more than a thousand men behind it. The Ming Army also suffered a lot of casualties. The two armies withdrew to rest and then Zhu Yukou rewarded the army with food and wine.

Qin Liangyu led Qin Yiming to be the king of the imperial court. Chong Zhenju was summoned to see Qin Liangyu on the platform. He rewarded Qin Liangyu's coins and livestock, and gave her poems in recognition of Qin Liangyu's meritorious services. It was at this time that Lu Xiangsheng made his debut. He recruited more than 10,000 people and entered the capital to assist in his defense. He made a meritorious contribution and was named the "Tianxiong Army". Not long after, he was summoned along with Yuan Chonghuan and Zu Dasheng. Emperor Chong was deeply impressed as he untied his shirt and showed the emperor his injuries.
