Chapter 247 If the king wants his minister to die, he has to die.
Author: Mu Yunfeng
Yang Feng looked at these beggars and smiled.
He forgot one thing.
Three generations of Black Firemen completed a landmark end in the history of the Western Regions in Turpan.
His father forced him.
He finishes.
Shamicha is armed with a sledgehammer and a chisel, and he will directly attack anyone who dares to do so.
So this should be the last Gaochang Uighur monk in front of me.
"Leave it to you. I remember that you Mongolians are all Buddhists, right?"
Yang Feng said.
"Well, at least we are."
Kun Timur said.
In fact, their beliefs were in confusion at this time. After all, they were full of miscellaneous people. They were convinced of Buddhism, but there were also a large number of Nestorians. Most of the Khan's court also believed in Buddhism, but the Asut tribe of the Khan's Guards was Orthodox, not to mention a certain religion.
I’ve said it. But the main Mongolian branch, the official direct lineage of Mongolia, is indeed dominated by Buddhists, but they are different, including Chinese Buddhism and Tibetan Buddhism. As for Kun Timur’s branch, they believe in the latter.
"Treat them well. I also respect Buddhism very much. I have been promoting Buddhism in the Ming Dynasty over the years. I helped the Ming Emperor build a temple in Huining and asked eminent monks to preside over it. I also asked the Ming Emperor to send envoys to Delhi to visit the eminent monks."
Yang Feng said with emotion.
There is no need to mention that his eminent monk once killed many people.
People put down their butcher's knives and became Buddhas immediately.
"Ambassador, are you going to Delhi to visit eminent monks?"
Kun Timur said with a strange expression.
"Why, isn't it there?"
Yang Feng said.
"Ambassador, there really aren't any there."
Kun Timur said with a smile.
The Delhi Sultanate actually had frequent trade with the Western Regions.
Of course, Ambassador Yang has not figured out whether there are any eminent monks there. As long as he did this to promote Buddhism in the Ming Dynasty, it has nothing to do with him as to whether there are eminent monks there. In fact, because of this matter, his image has always been in the hearts of the good men and women of the Ming Dynasty.
They are all very brilliant.
Eventually these monks were taken into custody by Kun Timur.
As for the black fire person...
Of course he pretended not to know anything.
Yang Feng and others rushed to their military camp immediately...
Of course in the city.
And there is no need for Hei Huoer to arrange it. The Ming army and Mongolian servants who enter the city will find a place they like. As for food, of course, Hei Huoer will provide it. The Ming Dynasty King is here to protect them from the Oara invasion.
, they should eat and drink as much as they want. Fortunately, at this time, Beishebali City and its surroundings were half-agricultural and half-grazing, and horses and camels could graze outside. The remaining eight thousand people could still barely provide food. Black
Huo'er is now so complacent that he wants to kill people with a borrowed knife and rely on the Ming army to deal with Hudada. Once he truly controls the cities in southern Xinjiang, the gains will be huge, and it is acceptable to pay a little for this.
He can still afford it.
Yang Feng and his entourage took a temporary rest in Bielsbali City.
And their envoys quickly arrived in Hami.
There is a complete post road system from Hami to Jiayuguan.
Although the number is not as good as that in the mainland.
But there is.
Therefore, Zhu Di's memorial, his letter to King Su and Song Sheng, and Yang Feng's letter asking Song Sheng to send troops to Hami were all quickly sent to Suzhou, and then Song Sheng's reply was also sent to Hami, and then forwarded to other places.
Lost eight miles...
He will send troops.
Of course, it was in the name of supporting King Yan.
But we will not continue to advance westward. If we continue to advance westward, it will be subject to the emperor's will.
As for transporting supplies to King Yan, he could only say that he would do his best.
Firstly, the ammunition there is limited, and secondly, transportation is difficult. Anyway, try your best, but this is not important. After all, the grassland is no longer in danger. You can go north from Shuofang, and then go to Yanran Mountain and follow the route of Yang Feng and others. This
The imperial court will find a way to solve it. After all, King Yan's victory is a glorious one. His Majesty the Emperor will find a way to ensure the supplies of this expeditionary force no matter what. Moreover, King Yan is not in danger in Khovd, and he does not dare to fight back after the disastrous defeat in Oara.
There are still a few months to go. Even if we enter the grassland from Shuofang, it will be enough to deliver supplies and even reinforcements before autumn arrives.
However, when Song Sheng sent people to march into Hami, he also brought some sulfur and saltpeter to Yang Feng.
Of course, that includes sugar.
Although the price is extremely expensive, since it is to replenish the ammunition for King Yan, it must be matched even if it is expensive.
In this way, Yang Feng can go to the Hami Guards Qianhu Station and use the craftsmen there to make some.
There are craftsmen there too.
It was very difficult for Qianhusuo to be isolated outside the fortress and supply supplies from the rear, so a team of craftsmen was specially equipped. However, these craftsmen were incomparable to those in the capital, unless Yang Feng personally led them to purify the raw materials and then manufacture them.
.
The quantity won't be too much.
But it's better than nothing anyway. I don't think you need to give it to Zhu Di. It's enough to make up for Zhang Fu.
As for mining, it's easy.
The mining site designated by Yang Feng is in the desert south of Hami. As long as there are people and he can ensure that the miners will not die of hunger and thirst, then he can go ahead and mine.
but……
Shaanxi Xingdusi, or Gansu, will definitely not have anyone.
There simply weren't that many people for him.
In other words, Gansu's current food self-sufficiency capacity cannot support much of the non-agricultural population. Mining requires a lot of manpower. Not only food but also drinking water must be transported there, so transportation also requires a large number of people. These will eventually become Shaanxi
The heavy burden of Xingdusi is not only mining in the interior, but also agricultural areas dozens of miles away, which can continuously supply food. In fact, even mining in the interior is considered a very difficult job, such as the mining workers of Dexing Copper Mine, because
There is no spring water in the local area that is not poisoned by copper sulfate, so many workers can only drink the poisonous water, and a large part of them are mutes who have been poisoned.
This is still Jiangxi.
At least there is still enough rain.
If Yang Feng wants to open a mine in the desert of southern Hami, how many people will die?
The potassium saltpeter mine in Hami is actually close to Lop Nur.
For Song Sheng, it was better for him to transport Yang Feng from the mainland than to go there for mining. Although it was only three to four hundred miles away from Hami, it was a no-man's land of three to four hundred miles, and even herders did not go there.
Of course, he didn't know that Yang Feng wanted this effect.
Take human lives?
He just wants to take human lives!
Don't lose eight miles.
"Mysterious, this is the order of King Yan. King Yan is the beloved son of the Ming Emperor. Now he has led an army of 100,000 to Jinshan. However, the ammunition is insufficient and cannot advance. It has been transported thousands of miles from the interior, so it has to be mined and manufactured on the spot.
This is a big deal. Since Yi Mi is a minister of the king, and the king has ordered 30,000 young men to be dispatched, but Yi Mi blocks it for various reasons, is this a loyal minister?"
Yang Feng looked at Hudaida in front of him.
The latter's roots are in Kashgar. He was the emir of Kashgar, and then also the state minister of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate...
Of course, there is no such position.
His actual official position is that of Emir of the Emirs.
But surrender to the Great Khan.
So sometimes he assisted the government in Beslopali, and sometimes he was in charge of his own territory in Kashgar. All the emirs in the cities in southern Xinjiang surrendered to him. Then he signed an alliance with Beslopali, and he led these emirs to surrender to Dongchahe.
Tai Khan, the Ming Dynasty’s Don’t Lose the Fire of Bali Wanghei.
But he rules over these emirs.
Equivalent to Cao Cao.
Moreover, he was granted the title of King of Wei and added nine tins, so that almost the entire north was considered Cao Cao during the Wei period.
He was shocked after receiving the order from the Black Fire Master.
Why did Your Majesty rebel?
You want to rebel!
Let me recruit 30,000 young men to prepare their own dry food and go to Hami to mine for the Ming Dynasty?
How many glasses of fermented grape juice have you had?
When did you have the right to order me to do anything? You are all supported by me. My territory is almost ten times your actual territory, and the population under my control is almost ten times the population under your control. You actually feel that you have a head on your head.
Can that sweaty hat give me orders?
This is the kind of order that makes me dig my own grave.
South of Hami?
Isn't that a desert?
I will give you 30,000 young men to carry dry food and go to the desert to mine?
All of them will be dead within a month?
"Ambassador, we submit to the Ming Dynasty because the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty is a benevolent king who treats us and other people from foreign lands with sincerity and constant gifts, rather than being a slave of the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty!"
Hu Daoda sneered.
"I understand, when I offer you benefits, you shout long live to the Emperor of Ming Dynasty. When I ask you to do something, you stop doing it. You need to know that since you have surrendered to Ming Dynasty, you must abide by Ming Dynasty's rules.
What is the Son of Heaven?
Life and death are taken.
If you want your minister to die, you must die!
Even if Ming Dynasty wants you to die, you will have to die, let alone if you are asked to do something?
Call someone in!"
Yang Feng said to Kun Timur.
The latter immediately waved outside, and a Mongolian soldier walked in.
Yang Feng threw the sword directly at his feet.
"Stab yourself in the stomach!"
he shouted.
The latter picked up the sword without hesitation, kowtowed to Yang Feng, then turned the sword upside down, and then stabbed it directly into his stomach...
"Look, this is the true loyal minister!"
Yang Feng looked at Husaida and said.
"Carry it down!"
He then said to the Mongolian soldiers waiting outside.
The guy with the sword stuck in his belly even tried to struggle and kowtow to him, but in the end he was carried down by his companions.
"Yimi, this is a loyal minister."
Yang Feng said.
Hudada looked at the Mongolian soldiers who were being carried down with complicated eyes. At this time, he had realized that Yang Feng was difficult to deal with. Although he had not heard many myths about Yang Feng, he only heard from the previous batches of tribute envoys.
He had heard about it, but he didn't take it seriously. After all, his faith did not allow him to accept these strange things.
However, Yang Feng could make a Mongolian soldier commit suicide with just one word, which already means that this person has extremely strong ability to rule.
It can make people die.
It's not easy to deal with someone who can make people die.
"Ambassador, do you have an imperial edict from the Ming Emperor?"
he said.
"No, the distance is too far, and the round trip takes too long. Moreover, King Yan has received the imperial edict and can do everything on his own. He is the fourth son of the Ming Emperor and was even almost elected as the crown prince. There is no need to ask for a separate edict for this."
Yang Feng said.
"I, Bie Shi Bali, am a minister of the Emperor of Ming Dynasty, not of King Yan."
Husuda said.
"But you have an order from the king of your country."
Yang Feng said with a smile.
"Great Khan, this matter needs further discussion. Please withdraw the order temporarily."
Hudada turned around and said to Hei Huo'er.
"Yimi, this matter is of great importance. Since we surrender to the Emperor of Ming Dynasty, we should contribute to the Ming Dynasty. King Yan's army is not far away. Since we can't mobilize our troops and horses to help in the battle, it is our duty to make ammunition for King Yan.
What's more, Wala still occupies Yilibaili. If King Yan's army goes south, we can also take the opportunity to regain Yilibaoli. No matter for the sake of the Ming Dynasty or for ourselves, we should not refuse. My order will not be taken back, although I also know that the three
It is not easy to mobilize Wanqingzhuang, but it is not impossible. There are 24,000 households in Kashgar, and this city alone can produce 8,000 Qingzhuang.
Each of the remaining cities can produce several thousand.
Just thirty thousand.
can do it.
As for the food, the ambassador did not use it in vain, he paid for it."
The black fireman said with a smile.
"Yes, give money, including wages to young people. I have brought enough treasure money."
Yang Feng took out a handful of banknotes and waved them around frantically.
So you just use these printed pieces of paper to exchange our young lives, right? You two are collaborating together, forcing me to send my young people over to let you toss to death, right? We are all thousand-year-old foxes, who doesn’t understand?
! Thirty thousand young men are going to mine in a place where there is no water supply, and there is desert for hundreds of miles around. As long as you don’t give camels, they will have no place to escape. And you will be late to transport water any day.
In a few days, thousands of them would die of thirst, and it was very common for such things to happen even if they were not intentional, let alone intentional.
One day a sandstorm blows and everything is buried inside.
How vicious!
How vicious!
"Great Khan, even if the Great Khan refuses to take back his order, I'm afraid the cities may not be willing to obey."
Husuda said.
"If you dare to disobey the king, you are betraying the king. Since you are betraying the king, you deserve to be killed even if you are all killed."
Yang Feng said.
"Yomi, we have to go to various cities to explain this matter, but Ambassador Yang is right. Since it is an order, they must obey the order. If they refuse to obey the order, it will be rebellion, and they will have no choice but to attack."
The black fireman said.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. Since the King surrenders to the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty has the responsibility to protect the King. The rebellion of the King is also the rebellion of the Ming Dynasty. As long as the King gives the order, the Ming kings here will help the King to fight against the rebellion. Moreover, the army led by Song Sheng is very
We will move to Hami soon, and I want to see who else dares to disobey the king's order."
Yang Feng looked at Husaida and said.
"In this case, I will go to each city and try to persuade them to obey the king's order."
Husuda said.
After saying that, he turned around and left with his guards.
Zhang Fu looked at Yang Feng...
"Don't worry, let him go back. I want to see what he is capable of. He is just the lord of Kashgar City, with 24,000 households? Isn't it just a county in the Ming Dynasty? It's not even a government, it's a small place.
, dare to fight against the Ming Dynasty?"
Yang Feng looked at Hu Saida's back and sneered.
"Yimi, I'll give you one month. If we can't send Qingzhuang over in one month, then Yang will go there with his troops and ask for it. But what we want at that time is not just Qingzhuang, brother.
We have been alone for a long time, so we need some young women, and we need some gold and silver treasures for our thousands-mile expedition, but then you won’t be able to help us."
