Just as Zhou Sheng thought, the reason why Lan Yu suddenly changed his attitude was because of the letter Zhu Han gave him.
In the letter, Zhu Han scolded Lan Yu and reminded Lan Yu of the beating he received from Zhu Yuanzhang before he came to India. He also thought of how he was sitting on the throne of their palace when he was the Sultan of Delhi.
Report it, and Lan Yu will inevitably be in a lot of trouble.
Zhu Han's words had an awakening effect on Lan Yu. Zhou Sheng happened to appear. Lan Yu took advantage of Po Xia Donkey and regarded what he had done in the palace of the Sultan of Delhi as a test for his subordinates. This makes sense.
As for Zhou Sheng, when he is in a good mood, he can accept the supervision of the other party. When he is in a bad mood, Zhou Sheng is just a businessman.
Lan Yu solved Zhou Sheng, and gained Zhou Sheng's trust and further support. She also regarded what she did in the Sultan's Palace in Delhi as a test for her opponent's subordinates.
"Hey, kill three birds with one stone! Kill three birds with one stone!"
Lan Yu touched her chin, her expression showing pride.
Who says I'm not smart enough?
This is not one thing. Did I accomplish three things?
Perfect!
In fact, Lan Yu is not a fool. If he has no ability, he cannot become a military genius. He just has low emotional intelligence and does not have any court wisdom. Therefore, in the Ming Dynasty in another world, he did not end well and suffered many consequences.
Everyone is implicated by him.
But it's different now, because Lan Yu has someone he admires in his heart, Zhu Han, and he can listen to Zhu Han's scolding.
"Someone, please remove the golden chair from the Sultan's Palace in Delhi and transport it back to Yingtian and hand it over to His Majesty!"
Lan Yu waved her hand and moved the throne from the Sultan's Palace in Delhi.
Then he said to his cronies: "Tell your majesty that I, the Ming Dynasty King, have conquered another city!"
"As you command!"
Lan Yu cleaned up the little tail he left in India, and then began to plan the next military operation.
In fact, Lan Yu's big plan is very simple.
parade!
Military parade on the battlefield!
Bring out the spirit of Ming's sergeants, and take out all of Ming's weapons and equipment, so that those who want to go against Ming can see who is the best master in the world!
Lan Yu planned to invite people from the Ottomans, Hungarians and other surrounding West Asian countries to watch the military parade on the battlefield.
This kind of military parade is more like a warning: If you dare to stand in front of Ming Dynasty, you are the enemy of Ming Dynasty!
No matter how tough you are, how can you be as tough as the Ming Dynasty's artillery?
Of course, Lan Yu has not forgotten that his main enemies now are Chen Youliang and Wang Baobao. The reason why he held this military parade was to deter people from other kingdoms and ask them not to interfere in the process of annihilating Chen Youliang and Wang Baobao in the Ming Dynasty.
Otherwise, there is only one way: destroy the country!
Lan Yu was not in a hurry to deal with Chen Youliang and Wang Baobao. He also knew that there was no need to rush, so he just did it slowly. If he could push away a few kingdoms that were in the way, his contribution might be greater.
Just do it!
Lan Yu wrote a letter: Ming Dynasty will hold military exercises and military parades, you all come to watch... Ming Dynasty's Western Expedition is about to happen, I hope you will not miss the opportunity to make good friends with Ming Dynasty.
When writing letters to other vassal states, Lan Yu wrote very impolitely.
All he needs to do is express his attitude: If any of you are dissatisfied, come over and have a chat with me, Da Ming!
After the letter was written, Lan Yu sent someone to deliver it, and then waited in India for them to send envoys.
Those who came may be to find out the strength of Ming Dynasty, but those who did not come must be the enemies of Ming Dynasty!
Lan Yu's way of judging the enemy and ourselves is that simple.
…
Lan Yu is in full swing preparing for war.
At this time, Yinzhou, two oceans away, was moving inwards, purging the internal personnel.
Hu Dahai held a knife in one hand and a gun in the other. Kong Mingde followed Hu Dahai, looked down at Yan Xiangdong lying on the ground, and asked condescendingly: "Yan Xiangdong, do you know your guilt?"
"Convicted! Convicted!"
At this time, Yan Xiangdong was trembling all over. He wanted to humbly beg Hu Dahai to give him a chance, but looking at Hu Dahai with blood on his face, he couldn't say what he wanted to say.
There was no way, Yan Xiangdong had no choice but to turn to Kong Mingde for help: "Brother Kong, the head of the Kong family! General Kong! Please help me plead with General Hu and ask him to spare my life. I will definitely listen to you and never cause trouble in the future.
!”
He said it so confidently that Kong Mingde couldn't help but close his eyes after hearing it.
If I had known this, why would I do it in the first place?
Now that we are overseas, there are only a few Han people. Hu Dahai is cruel to the indigenous people, but he still takes good care of the Han people. But Yan Xiangdong went to his own death. No one can blame him.
The reason is very simple. Yan Xiangdong has a different idea. He thinks that in Yingtian, the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, and he wants to make himself king.
Hu Dahai had long realized that something was wrong with Yan Xiangdong, but he did not take action against Yan Xiangdong. He just asked Kong Mingde to remind Yan Xiangdong not to go too far.
Kong Mingde also reminded him, and spoke to Yan Xiangdong heart-to-heart, telling him to stop in time before he was in deep trouble, so as to avoid further trouble.
However, Yan Xiangdong did not listen to Kong Mingde. While perfunctory with Kong Mingde, he stepped up his plan.
Yan Xiangdong was a very ambitious man. After being exiled by the Ming Dynasty, he once thought that his life was over.
However, after arriving in Yinzhou, Yan Xiangdong discovered that... his life had just begun.
Yinzhou, a place where people drink blood, is a primitive society compared to the Ming Dynasty, and is incomparable to the Ming Dynasty. But in this place, Yan Xiangdong saw hope.
The hope of becoming a king.
Rather than the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix, Yan Xiangdong thought that if he could establish a foothold in Yinzhou and conquer the indigenous people here, he could become his own king.
As for Hu Dahai... Yan Xiangdong doesn't think he needs to take it too seriously. Even if Hu Dahai controls the shipping with Daming, so what?
Even without the Ming Dynasty, wouldn’t the indigenous people here still live well?
In fact, in order to convince himself, Yan Xiangdong even used the allusion of Xu Fu's eastward journey to convince himself. Xu Fu was able to make the eastward journey with 300 childhood virgins. Is he no better than Xu Fu now?
As for Hu Dahai... Yan Xiangdong didn't take him seriously. He thought Hu Dahai was just a rough guy. What could he do to him?
Besides, Yan Xiangdong thinks that he, Kong Mingde, and Zhou Deming are in the same group. The three cobblers are the equal of Zhuge Liang. Can the three of them combined be no better than a mere Hu Dahai?
Hu Dahai is just a rough guy!
Yan Xiangdong thought so, and he was ready to do this.
However, something unexpected happened, and when Yan Xiangdong was actively planning and preparing, Hu Dahai came directly with his people. Yan Xiangdong was not ready to establish himself as king. When he saw Hu Dahai coming, he thought his plan was exposed.
So he had to act hastily.
Therefore, the final result is obvious: Yan Xiangdong was beaten by Hu Dahai, all his loyal men were slaughtered, and Yan Xiangdong begged for mercy in front of Hu Dahai like a dead dog.
However, Hu Dahai would not give him a chance to beg for mercy.
"Yan Xiangdong, I've given you the opportunity, but if you don't grasp it yourself, no one can save you!"
Hu Dahai's words no longer showed mercy for Yan Xiangdong, but became harsh. He put the knife on Yan Xiangdong's neck and said to him: "Wherever the sun and moon shine, it is the land of the Ming Dynasty. You made a mistake and came to Yinzhou.
I asked you to perform meritorious service for your crime, but instead of repenting, you attempted to rebel. No one can save you!"
"I, I didn't rebel, I didn't!"
At this time, of course Yan Xiangdong refused to admit that he would rebel. Seeing that Hu Dahai still had murderous intent in his eyes, he knew that he would die today.
But, how can I be the only one to die?
Yan Xiangdong cast his gaze on Kong Mingde, his eyes flashing with hatred.
Kong Mingde!
How did Hu Dahai know that I was going to rebel? You told him, right?
snort!
You are a villain who betrays your friends for glory. Even if I die, I will not let you have an easy time!
"General! General! I didn't rebel. It was Kong Mingde who wanted to rebel. He was framing me!"
Yan Xiangdong pointed at Kong Mingde. In the astonished eyes of Kong Mingde and Zhou Deming, Yan Xiangdong directly betrayed Kong Mingde: "General, it is Kong Mingde who rebelled, not me. I was wanted, and he is the one who wants to rebel.
"
me?
Kong Mingde couldn't believe that Yan Xiangdong was so shameless in order to have a chance to survive.
This is probably what is called meeting someone unkindly, right?
Thinking that he once regarded Yan Xiangdong as a close friend, and that Yan Xiangdong was exiled to Yinzhou for his own reasons, Kong Mingde felt guilty for Yan Xiangdong. Yan Xiangdong intended to stand on his own in Yinzhou, and Kong Mingde took the initiative to explain to Hu Dahai when he knew that,
And he used his own future as a guarantee to ask Hu Dahai to take a step eastward.
Hu Dahai did indeed do this, but he did not expect that Yan Xiangdong would not repent, but would bite him back at the last moment.
Is this... being unkind to others?
Kong Mingde didn't expect that his good intentions would lead to such an ending.
Know people, know faces, but don’t know hearts!
Zhou Deming patted Kong Mingde on the back and said to him: "It's not worth getting angry for such a villain!"
"I'm not angry, and there's nothing to be angry about."
Although Kong Mingde is said to be a scholar, his experience after coming to Yinzhou has made him more ruthless and decisive. He has shown the utmost kindness to Yan Xiangdong, and now that Yan Xiangdong bites back, he will only become a laughing stock.
It's not worth being angry with such a person.
As for whether Prime Minister Hu Dahai believed what Yan Xiangdong said, Hu Dahai said that he only believed in himself, and that Kong Mingde and Zhou Deming were just outsiders.
It doesn't matter how much the three brothers fight or make trouble, but they must not affect Hu Dahai's battle plan, otherwise no one can save them.
If Yan Xiangdong hadn't messed up Hu Dahai's plan this time, Hu Dahai wouldn't have thought about fighting.
No matter what we do, we are still Han people.
If they were only in the Ming Dynasty, it would be nothing to fight between them, but in overseas enclaves, the sense of belonging between the Han people is highlighted. Unless there is no other way, Hu Dahai will not take action easily.
But as long as the knife is used, it will be the inevitable outcome of death and death.
"Yan Xiangdong, in this life, I have failed you after all, and I apologize to you." Kong Mingde is still deeply apologizing for implicating Yan Xiangdong, but at this point, no matter how much he apologizes, he can't repay:
"In the next life, let us not know anyone."
"..."
Yan Xiangdong's eyes couldn't help but shrink.
This was probably the last thing he wanted to hear, but Kong Mingde said it anyway. This might be the last thing he heard in this world.
The desire to survive made Yan Xiangdong struggle involuntarily. He looked at Kong Mingde: "No, that's not the case! General Hu, Kong Mingde, he..."
Suddenly, Yan Xiangdong suddenly felt that asking for mercy from Hu Dahai was not a good choice. He looked at Kong Mingde again. At this time, Yan Xiangdong had completely forgotten how he framed Kong Mingde just now, and directly begged: "Since you are sorry for me, then
Just beg General Hu to let me go, I...Brother Mingde, you..."
But before he could finish begging for mercy, Hu Dahai couldn't stand it anymore and cut off his head with a knife.
"If you make friends with such rubbish, it shows that your taste is not very good."
Hu Dahai didn't know how to persuade people. He told Kong Mingde in very unpleasant words that Yan Xiangdong's matter was over, so don't think about him anymore. It's not worth it for this kind of person.
Kong Mingde stood there without saying a word. Zhou Deming was a down-to-earth man. When he saw that Kong Mingde didn't speak, he thought that Kong Mingde was still blaming himself for Yan Xiangdong's death, so he advised from the side: "Brother Mingde, although General Hu speaks more
It’s ugly, but what he said makes sense, some people don’t deserve it.”
Although they were referred to by someone else, both of them knew who they were talking about.
"General Hu is right, but he knows Yan Xiangdong who made mistakes."
Kong Mingde spoke in a very soft voice. He stepped forward and put Yan Xiangdong's body and head together: "The former Xiangdong was not such a person. He...it was me who harmed him after all."
Looking at Yan Xiangdong who was still staring at death, Kong Mingde sighed, and then said: "Xiangdong, Xiangdong, you are a smart man, but why can't you understand some things? The King of England spent so much effort to understand the Ming Dynasty's
The territory has expanded to thousands of miles away. How could the Ming Dynasty ignore such an important place? They just haven't had time to take care of it now. Even if you succeed, how many years can you be stable?"
In Kong Mingde's view, Yan Xiangdong's plan will only lead to a dead end in the end, it's just a matter of how long it takes.
Although I feel extremely reluctant to part with you, we will eventually separate. The dead are dead, and the living must continue to move forward.
Kong Mingde said to Zhou Deming: "Brother Deming, there are only two of us brothers left."
Zhou Deming nodded and said to Kong Mingde: "As long as we behave well, we will eventually have a good death, but I don't know...if there is still a chance for the leaves to return to their roots."
If he dies, can he be buried back in Ming Dynasty?
"Will do."
Kong Mingde seemed very confident. He said to Zhou Deming: "The King of England and His Majesty take good care of their ministers. As long as we work hard and don't covet, Your Majesty will see our achievements sooner or later. When the time comes, the King of England will
His Highness will let us go back."
They don't want to take credit, they just want to go home.
