Yang Feng stood on the top of a hill not far away, using his telescope to look at the fierce battle at Tianjing Pass.
The nearly 400 reinforcements that arrived first immediately stabilized the situation that was on the verge of collapse.
This is the regular army.
Soldiers in full armor, wielding various cold weapons in their hands, fought in melee with the attacking Shenji Battalion on the city wall of Tianjingguan, fighting in the smoke of grenade explosions. Although everyone was actually a guard soldier,
The Shenji Camp belongs to the capital city. Although most of the military households of Ningshan Guard also migrated to the south, they have not had much affection after nearly thirty years. Originally, a few years later in history, they were killed in the same mountains of corpses and seas of blood...
When it comes to fighting, there is no need to think about anything else.
The young men who had been defeated also returned, rearranged their rapid-fire cannons on the hilltop, and then continued to aim their muzzles outside the city.
Xie Cheng is still urging the attack.
There is no other choice in this situation. The brave one wins when faced with a narrow road.
Then based on the people's level of resistance, decide whether to accept their demands.
He only made him the emperor's grandson instead of Zhu Yunwen because he knew about my appearance, so he naturally regarded me as an ally that he could rely on. And because he was young and easy to accept new things, he was influenced by me in daily interactions.
The influence of new ideas established his ruling ideas.
"He will definitely not treat me as a friend.
Zhang Ying said.
He just watched the attacking team suddenly accelerate, then threw off the disguise and quickly rushed out of the dense forest. Each one of them held a three-eyed blunderbuss, taking advantage of the fact that Xie Cheng's Chinese soldiers on the opposite side were unable to defend themselves, and rushed out at the fastest speed.
Fired a salvo. Although the power of this thing was insufficient, its rate of fire was absolutely fast. Hundreds of three-eyed muskets completed the salvo in a very short time. In the thick smoke, the soldiers who completed the shooting shouted and rushed towards Xie Cheng.
Xie Cheng's Chinese soldiers immediately faced the attack, but due to terrain restrictions, his Chinese army did not have many people in front of the assault. After all, this was a ridge. Although hundreds of soldiers were deployed around it, most of them were in the forest.
They naturally believe that the people should kneel at their feet and bow their heads and obey orders.
That’s when the real negotiations will begin.”
In this way, the king of Zhou asked himself to move to Huangzhong.
Zhu Yunxi was the mastermind behind the entire incident.
So the Ming army at this time was really elite!
Secondly, the demands of the people of Shanxi are not many, at least they are not unacceptable, but they just don’t want to start it. Some measures need to be taken, but if only a few measures are taken, this matter is not worthy of a large-scale war.
In other words, let Yang Feng exercise some restraint.
Zhang Ying said suddenly.
He is an emperor.
The soldiers who were originally preparing to pursue them quickly took cover.
That's it now.
He was born to rule all the peoples of the world.
Yang Feng said.
he said with a smile.
Therefore, now we have to let the people resist here until the emperor Taisun is frustrated and understands that if he does not compromise with the people, the price he will pay will be very high.
And with Fu Youde dead, the Jin vassal had no foreign aid they could rely on. With Feng Sheng dead, the Zhou vassal had no foreign aid it could rely on. Relying on the River God incident caused by Yang Feng and the unruly people, the emperor's grandson could almost say
With a little effort, the two powerful vassals currently ranked in the top three were eliminated in one fell swoop. Therefore, the task of the unscrupulous people was completed and there was no need for them anymore. The negotiations were just for the emperor to end with dignity. After all, he could not break his promise, and he had to say it again.
Give Yang Feng a decent ending.
Don't think that he can accept unruly people just because he teamed up with me to use the people to deal with his uncle and get rid of a few important officials who would threaten him.
Note, it is domination.
The topography of Tianjingguan determines that it is a matter of will.
However, the soldiers from the Shenji Battalion in front quickly turned around to provide reinforcements.
At this time, the other swordsmen were also wiped out.
She was lying on the laser pointer at this time.
Of course, to say that death is not a serious problem is that it is normal for old age. After all, he is still in his seventies.
"But if you act like this, what will the emperor's grandson think in the future?
He treats you as a friend."
Once he's used, it's over. Do you think he will really accept a group of unruly people?
Do you think that people like Lai Gong deliberately instigated conflicts without his permission? He is the real mastermind behind the scenes. It was he who asked people like Lai Gong to deliberately bring me in to deal with armed fights and light fires in tense situations.
, creating an excuse for the imperial court to send troops into Shanxi to finish. If my guess is correct, the armies of Chang Sheng, Sun Ke, and Guo Ying have already been waiting at various passes. Once Xie Cheng successfully opens Tianjing Pass, they will
They used the power of Mount Tai to force their way into Shanxi, and then used the threat of victory to force the people to hand over their firearms.
She had just rushed back from the capital. The main reason was that Yang Feng had been playing more and more recently, and the little princess was a little uneasy. Although she was not very worried that something would happen to Yang Feng, the people involved were all her relatives. Yang Feng took action.
In just over half a year, she lost a brother and a nephew...
"If he can't open it, he will continue to increase the pressure until His Majesty the Emperor orders him to stop. A truly large-scale war is what His Majesty the Emperor wants to avoid, so even if Tianjing Pass cannot be opened, armies from other directions will not enter Shanxi. Because God
The failure of the machine camp to open the Tianjing Pass means that the people's resistance is very strong. Even if the imperial court launches a large-scale attack, the result is likely to be a continuous war.
On the mountain road where the battle quickly ended, Xie Cheng was there bitterly kicking the dead body of the swordsman.
Zhang Ying stood nearby and said.
The guards of the vassal king also belong to the court. They are originally paid by the court. The palace is the palace and the guards are guards. In fact, it is equivalent to leaving the King of Zhou in Xining to make a living on his own. Moreover, he is watched by the two guard generals. There is no need to worry about it.
Make trouble.
Yang Feng said.
At least it won't be solved in the short term.
Other soldiers gathered towards the mountain road.
It can be said that not only him, but any emperor will not like me. They can use me and accept the new technologies I bring, and even some new ideas that are beneficial to the emperor, but they will not allow me to cultivate a group of people who dare to fight against the imperial power.
At this point, he is not even as good as his grandfather. His grandfather knows that the rising of the people is terrible, so he will compromise and give in to the people when necessary, but the second and third generations like him have never experienced the rising of the people.
The artillery of both sides was firing at each other, the matchlocks were firing at each other, the sound of gunfire and the explosion of grenades, accompanied by the soldiers' shouts of killing, echoed in the mountains, and the smoke of black gunpowder filled the air, making the entire Tianjing Pass seem like a black mist.
Shrouded in the mist, the firelight continued to shine.
Then, with the title of vassal king, he went to the capital to build a palace for him as an apartment, and gave him the annual salary. In the future, his descendants would not continue to be granted the titles of princes, generals, etc., but would be hereditary titles of the King of Zhou.
Receive a salary from the King of Zhou every year.
The emperor's grandson also believed that the unruly people were of no use anymore and could be killed. It was also impossible for him to accept a group of unruly people who could resist the imperial power and force the imperial power to accept public opinion. In the past, he just used these unruly people to achieve his goals. Now,
The goal has been achieved, the King of Jin is dead, and the King of Zhou has been grasped by him. In fact, there is no longer a threat. He has even found a fiefdom for the King of Zhou, and carved out a piece of Huangzhong in the Xining Guard of Longyou.
It was given to the King of Zhou as a fief, and two guards were retained. The court would not pay any more salary to the King of Zhou.
Anyway, the little princess asked Zhang Ying to come over quickly and keep an eye on her.
Take life and death, live in the world, and become an emperor like his grandfather.
Only then did Yang Feng notice that at the highest point of Tianjing Pass, several flags changed from time to time.
But he also calmed down.
This is quite efficient!
Besides, her father doesn’t seem to be in good health lately…
"This is still under command."
Soon after an hour passed, the attacking team also arrived behind Xie Cheng. They still cautiously approached Xie Cheng's central army along the relatively gentle mountain.
The way is different!
Now even infiltration raids are used.
This is what His Majesty the Emperor wants to avoid. First of all, he does not have much military strength and financial resources. He is fighting wars in Annan and Guizhou, and he also has to build ships to go to America. He also has a large-scale civil war.
The attacker may not be visible even under the cover of lush trees in summer.
So King Zhou took the lead.
In short, after the emperor's grandson succeeds to the throne, all the vassal kings will either receive fiefdoms to make a living on their own, or go to the capital to inherit a hereditary title and become a residence official.
Of course, it’s okay if you don’t want to go.
"There seems to be someone down there!"
It’s not that Ambassador Yang refused to uphold justice for the people of Shanxi, but the thieves were so disrespectful that they beat his old friend Lai Duxian to death in front of him. How could Ambassador Yang be allowed to uphold justice for them? In short, it was all the thugs’ fault.
He just uses them.
Also because of the trees and undulating mountains, they were unable to use bows, arrows and firearms to support them.
Because these people who were obviously wearing disguises were moving towards Xie Cheng's rear under the cover of dense forest. They were walking at the bottom of the ditch below Tianjing Pass, and Tianjing Pass was a ridge with very steep sides. No matter how high the height difference was,
Coupled with the cover of summer vegetation, it was difficult for Xie Cheng to spot them. Yang Feng lay on top and looked at their figures on the passive infrared detector. At this time, the battle at Tianjing Pass continued, and another support force arrived behind the defenders.
They are still military households. They all have iron armor, which can be said to be a great advantage. Most of the young men do not have it. After all, it is originally forbidden to hide armor among the people. Even if they rush to make cloth face armor, it cannot be completed so quickly.
The explosion sounded chaotically.
Indeed, Xie Cheng is going to be in bad luck.
Please withdraw your vassal status.
However, as soon as Zhang Ying arrived, he caught up with Yang Feng and made another big move. He actually instigated unruly people and military households in the guard station to join forces to fight against the emperor's grandson.
Their companions behind realized their failure, and everyone quickly retreated toward the dense forest. While retreating, some soldiers, under the cover of their companions, took out grenades, lit them, and threw them.
Of course, Zhu Yuanzhang would still be given the gift when he was alive.
Then he took a bodyguard adapted from the Xining Guard and a bodyguard selected from the original bodyguard to make a living on his own in the Xining area.
Diao Min is so ignorant!
but……
You can study, take the imperial examinations and become an official, but there is no need to lead troops to fight.
But among the attackers, several matchlock guns were set up, and they immediately opened fire on Xie Cheng.
So we will only attack at Tianjingguan.
And the rest make a living on their own.
Then I can exit gracefully."
Dozens of bare-chested soldiers with long swords in the assault team were extremely brave, and they slashed wildly at the soldiers gathering in front. In a short period of time, they relied on their bravery and fearlessness to cut through the melee team and rushed towards them.
Xie Cheng.
The latter had already mounted his horse and rushed towards the reinforcements of the Shenji Battalion soldiers.
Especially lately I have been worrying a lot.
The Shenji Battalion stormed Tianjingguan and charged against the shotgun shells of rapid-fire cannons. The defenders still held on without fear in the face of countless matchlock volleys and field artillery bombardments outside.
By asking me to follow him, he actually hinted me not to interfere and gave me an excuse to withdraw. After all, those unruly people beat me to death in front of me, and they didn't give me any face.
"This looks like a personal vendetta!"
It’s not that the emperor’s grandson didn’t want to negotiate with them, but the Diao people were too ignorant and killed a censor of Youdu. How could they still negotiate?
"Xie Cheng is going to be in trouble."
Yang Feng said with a smile.
Eventually the rule was restored.
This is not what Yang Feng wants.
It can be said that all the Ming armies participating in the war, no matter which side, showed strength worthy of their reputation of dominating the world and even going straight to the fishing sea.
The attackers appeared suddenly and quickly retreated under the cover of gunpowder smoke. It can be said that the sneak attack was decisive, the retreat was simple, and the advance and retreat were like the wind. However, this should be just a group of ordinary soldiers from a certain Baihutun.
"Then what happens if he can't open it here?"
This thing is multi-purpose, laser pointing, ranging, and of course it also has relatively long-range infrared detection. Yang Feng then pushed her away, lying on it and looking at the forest below. It was obvious that there were a large number of disguised personnel inside.
before, and their goal...
He reacted quickly, then threw down the grass on the side of the road, and then pulled out the knife. The attackers with long swords had already arrived not far away. The soldiers who were arriving tried to intercept them, but in the hand of the long knife, there was one who was obviously brave and unusual.
In a blink of an eye, he chopped down two soldiers and then arrived in front of Xie Cheng. Xie Cheng immediately raised his sword to fight, but the officer from the Shenji Battalion who rode behind him shouted clearly and he immediately fell to the ground. At the same time, the officer raised his flint.
He fired the short gun and pulled the trigger. The long-swordman was shot but did not fall down. He just paused and then swung the sword forward. However, this time was enough. The soldiers from the Shenji Battalion behind the officer took the opportunity to raise their matchlock guns and fired at
A salvo was fired at him from nearly a hundred meters away, and the swordsman fell down under the impact of the bullets.
Immediately afterwards, he ordered to temporarily stop the attack. After all, the current situation was complicated. It was nothing if the people were just being unruly, but if military households also joined in, the problem would be serious.
Gunshots rang out, and Marquis Yongping's horse fell down.
Of course, his escort generals must still have their salaries.
And what do I want?
What I want is that the imperial power must be limited, and the people cannot kneel at the feet of the imperial power and become slaves.
Yang Fengruo said with interest.
It was obvious that those swordsmen wanted to kill Xie Cheng.
"He has been the commander of the Shanxi capital for many years, and also served as the prime minister of the Jin Dynasty. Why hasn't he accumulated hundreds of enemies in the army for decades? If you continue to fan the flames, more people may take the opportunity to seek revenge and lead
Soldiers fight not only because of their friendship, but also because of their old grudges. Since my father returned to the imperial court, there are many generals in the army who are secretly trying to trick him!"
