Ninety-nine riders! A force of less than a hundred people dared to attack a Mongolian army that was a hundred times larger than itself. How could this man be so courageous? Anu was puzzled, but the noise outside the tent did not sound like there were only less than a hundred people.
Liu Ziguang saw through Anu's doubts and said with a smile: "In addition to my ninety-nine red shirt athletes, I also recruited some nearby villagers, that's all."
"Ninety-nine people... what method did you use to annihilate ten thousand of my cavalry in an instant? You must have drugged the pond. Why were my men and horses poisoned after drinking it, but those Han prisoners were fine?"
The slave continued to ask.
"In my eyes, ten thousand cavalry are nothing more than chickens and dogs. How can they defeat the powerful and heartless cannon? This is the most advanced firearm of our Ming Dynasty. With just one cannonball, all humans and animals within a ten-mile radius will be turned into fly ash.
So you are not unjustly defeated. As for the poison, haha, it took a lot of effort to prepare the potion for you. The poison is lighter than water, so the water in the upper layer is more toxic. The antidote is heavier than water and sinks to the bottom of the pond.
You Mongolians drink the water from the top, which is the most poisonous. War horses drink the water from the middle. Although it is slightly less toxic, the horses drink a lot of water and it is poisonous enough. Only the dirty water in the mud below is safe. Those captives naturally
fine."
The heartless cannon that Liu Ziguang refers to is an oil barrel that shoots bombs. This kind of weapon has a simple source and is very powerful. It can blow up a person's internal organs without showing any scars on the surface. It is really vicious, so
Liu Ziguang named it a heartless cannon on the spot. As for the poisons that are lighter than water, they are the scientific research results of Huangshi Zhenren and Da Wenxi. They started large-scale production last year, otherwise they would not have been produced within a few days.
It was enough to poison more than 20,000 people, so dozens of water trucks and thousands of civilians were used.
After listening to Liu Ziguang's explanation, Anu was still unwilling and continued to ask: "How did you expect that we would camp here and what was the reason for the lightning and the sound of war drums in the sky?"
Liu Ziguang said: "Based on your marching speed and the distance from the last clear water supply point, it is too simple to judge this. Our staff officers have been studying this all day long, and it has little content. As for the lightning in the sky and the sound of war drums, that is
But you can’t even understand the real high technology.”
Anu shook his head and sighed: "The defeat was not unjust. Everything was planned by others. It is God's will that my 20,000-strong army ended up like this. I won't say it anymore. I will kill or scrape you as you please."
Liu Ziguang said: "Don't worry, I won't kill you even if you are kind to the queen."
A spark of hope rose in Anu's eyes. He raised his head and looked at Liu Ziguang with two big watery eyes: "General, we Mongolians admire brave and resourceful men the most. I can't go back to Xixia. If
The general will not give up. I am willing to lead the general's horse and ride on the pedals, serve around him, and when the general goes to attack Xixia, I can also make suggestions and help you."
As she said that, she gently pulled down her gauze dress, revealing her plump breasts to seduce Liu Ziguang. Liu Ziguang was fooled as expected. He smiled and leaned over, stretching out his hands unceremoniously... Anu also cooperated very closely.
Go up.
With a "swipe" sound, Liu Ziguang pulled out the dagger hidden in Anu's chest, and slapped Anu across the face with his other hand, causing her nose to bleed on the spot.
"Bitch! You seduced me just because of your behavior. Have you wiped the shit off your butt? It smells all over you! The knife is very sharp. Are you trying to hold me hostage? Humph, you are still doing this in front of me.
You're too young! Come here, tie it up for me and see how I deal with you."
Anu's plan failed, and she was tied tightly with a cowhide rope. It was still the pig-tying method of putting her hands behind her back and tying her curled feet together. It looked extremely indecent. She still used a pair of vaginal
Staring at Liu Ziguang with stern eyes, he said sternly: "His Majesty Galdan will definitely make you repay a hundred times the humiliation I suffered today!"
Liu Ziguang sneered: "I'll wait and see." At this moment, a soldier came in from outside and said, "Commander, the Queen has invited you." Liu Ziguang then walked away with a flourish.
When I walked out of the tent, it was very hot outside. There were large pots propped up and boiling medicine. Farmers in groups of three or five were holding Mongolian horses and pouring medicine on these animals. From now on, these hard-working animals will be their private property.
Now, how can the farmers not be happy? When they saw Liu Ziguang coming, they all ran over and kowtowed, their eyebrows dancing with joy.
"My lord, are these animals really given to me?"
"My lord, I killed five Tatars with my own hands today, can I get an extra horse?"
"My lord, I also killed three Tartars with a hoe. I don't want animals. Can you recruit my second son to feed me?"
Liu Ziguang responded to every request with a smile. No matter whether he wanted livestock, money, or food to serve as a soldier, he would not refuse anyone who came. The mood of the crowd was aroused, and a large number of people gathered here. The soldiers rushed to maintain order. Liu Ziguang jumped
After getting on the carriage, he pressed his hands in all directions, and there was a sudden silence.
"Fellows, today we defeated the Tatars, and you are indispensable. I announced that in addition to the horses, each family will be rewarded with five taels of silver, plus an quota to eat food and serve as soldiers. Anyone who joins my Red Shirt Army will be rewarded.
, exempt from taxes for three years!”
There were thunderous cheers. The people were happier today than in the Chinese New Year. They had a good battle and exonerated the country's enemies. They also made a big animal. Not to mention the big animal, they also gave them five taels of silver for free.
The money didn't care about him, and every household even gave him an indicator to join the Red Shirt Army! This is a good opportunity that you can't find even with a lantern. Who doesn't know that joining the Red Shirt Army means a new look for the glorious family. In the past, the Red Shirt Army recruited
The county only recruits four or five people, but now it's great. Every household has a chance. If you join the army, you can be exempted from taxes for three years. The good news comes one after another, and the villagers have almost fainted with happiness.
After finally getting rid of the excited people, Liu Ziguang came to the tent where the queen was. At this time, the queen mother had been placed on the bed. Several other girls from the clan were found to serve her. She looked obviously much better. Liu Ziguang kowtowed outside the tent in a polite manner.
Please say hello and come in only after being summoned.
The Queen Mother was still unable to speak, so everything had to be communicated by the Queen Mother. Xu Yuanhui could understand the Queen Mother's gestures and the meaning in her eyes, and asked Liu Ziguang questions according to her instructions.
"My lord, my mother would like to ask you how are you, the eldest princess? How are you, my little lord?"
Liu Ziguang said: "After returning to my mother, the eldest princess is fine. I just miss you a lot. Kuang Kuang is doing well and has gained a lot of weight. She can even call her father and mother, and I even arranged a child bride for him."
When the Queen Mother heard this, she shed tears of joy. Xu Yuanhui helped the Queen Mother wipe away her tears and asked: "What should we do next?"
Liu Ziguang said: "Of course we should return to the capital and reorganize the country."
Xu Yuanhui paused and said in a low voice: "Of course, the Queen Mother is asking...how should the Emperor handle it?"
These words are cruel enough, and the word "disposal" is used. No one is a fool, and there is no need to say those scene words after such a huge change. When Liu Ziguang returns to China this time, he will definitely not let go of the traitors who framed him. Who is this?
Everyone can guess it, but the traitors like Wei Zhongxian, Huang Zongxi and others were obviously under Zhu Youxiao's protection, connivance or even instigation to attack Liu Ziguang. If they want to take revenge, the emperor will be the first to bear the brunt.
The capital has been captured by foreign enemies. We don’t know what kind of chaos it is now. The reason why the emperor is the supreme emperor and the lord of the people mainly depends on the stability of society and the admiration of his subjects. Now the Central Plains is in chaos. The capital that has been there for hundreds of years
He was captured by others, the clan nobles were captured, and the so-called resurgence of the Apocalypse became a complete joke. Who among the people in the world still believes in this emperor? In short, Zhu Youxiao has no support from the people.
Although the Empress Dowager is a woman, she is very aware of the situation in the world. Although these Xixia soldiers have been annihilated, there are still hundreds of thousands of armored men in the Xixia Empire. Galdan is a hero and will never tolerate the Queen being captured.
, and the Manchu Qing Dynasty in the north is also on the verge of resurgence, and the world is probably going to be in chaos.
The world is in chaos and heroes are rising. At this time, whoever has the strongest force and the most popular support will be the boss. The Queen Mother knows her son-in-law very well. He is a real and kind boy who is dedicated to assisting Zhu Youxiao.
, if he wanted to dominate the world, he could have done it two years ago when he had military power. Later, he was forced by his own son to destroy his family and flee overseas. If it hadn't been for the invasion of Xixia this time, he would not have come back. The power of the Zhu family
It was Zhu Youxiao himself who was defeated. Even if his son-in-law now has the idea of taking over the world, it is reasonable.
Even so, as an empress dowager and a mother, she still did not want to see the end of the Zhu Ming Dynasty, nor did she want to see her son and son-in-law fighting each other. If possible, she still hoped that Liu Ziguang could put aside his past grudges and assist her again.
's youngest son.
The Empress Dowager struggled to express her thoughts to Xu Yuanhui, who then conveyed it to Liu Ziguang, and then both of them watched Liu Ziguang's reaction eagerly.
Poor parents in the world, the Empress Dowager's request is understandable, Liu Ziguang was silent for a long time, and finally said: "Okay, I promise you, I will never betray the Ming Dynasty. As long as I, Liu Ziguang, live for one day, this world can only be filled by the descendants of Emperor Taizu."
sit."
Hearing Liu Ziguang's promise, the two mothers looked at each other happily, and their hearts could not be expressed in words. Liu Ziguang then said: "But those traitors who framed my son must be eradicated, and the murderer who killed Wei Guogong must also be brought to justice."
By law!"
It was Yuan Chengzhi who killed Xu Zengshou. Now the Yuan family and his son are in charge of more than half of the country's army. To kill Yuan Chengzhi would be equivalent to fighting a civil war. However, Liu Ziguang has already made a lot of concessions. Those issues need not be considered for the time being. The Queen Mother nodded.
He said there was no problem and motioned Xu Yuanhui to take out a seal.
"Liu Ziguang accepts the seal!" Xu Yuanhui said seriously.
Liu Ziguang quickly knelt down and said loudly: "Your Majesty, Liu Ziguang is here."
"The Queen Mother's decree is that at this time of great chaos in the world, the foundation of our ancestors is at stake. In order to support the Ming Dynasty and stabilize the country, Liu Ziguang is specially appointed as the supervisor of the Ming Dynasty. He will punish traitors at home, drive away the Tartars from abroad, and reorganize the country of the Ming Dynasty." Xu Yuanhui finished speaking.
The brocade box was handed over.
"This is the royal treasure of the Queen Mother. The Duke of the country can use it to command the world. If there is anyone who disobeys, he can send troops to attack him, even...including the emperor." Xu Yuanhui said.
Liu Ziguang was overjoyed. His mother-in-law was kind. If she didn't grant an official position, she would be a prisoner of the country. Even the emperor was under his supervision. This job was very comfortable. With the Empress Dowager Lafayette as his backer, no matter what
He has a reputation for beating anyone. With a serious look on his face, he kowtowed solemnly and took the brocade box containing the jade seal.
The Queen Mother was a little tired and signaled the Queen to see off the guests. The Queen stood up and took Liu Ziguang to the entrance of the tent and said, "Thank you for avenging my brother."
Liu Ziguang said: "No, I also want to avenge my brothers who died in vain."
Xu Yuanhui nodded and said, "I know." After a few seconds of silence, she seemed to have mustered up the courage to say, "Does the Duke really still want to support Li Jinshang?"
Liu Ziguang smiled noncommittally, bowed his hands to the queen, turned around and left.
