Chapter 340: The Machine of Horses Stepping on the Central Plains [2 More]
"Hahaha, we are saved!"
Under the surprise, even Liu Yangzheng couldn't care less about his manners and couldn't help laughing loudly.
At this moment, an arrow shot through the air and headed straight for one of the guards. A pop was heard and the arrow sank into the body of the guard.
The guard who originally had a surprised look on his face looked down at the arrow that had penetrated into his chest, and then his body went limp and he fell to the ground.
A dozen other guards reacted and drew their swords almost instinctively. Chen Ji, the guard, flew away the arrows in front of Liu Yangzheng, and at the same time shouted loudly in the Tatar language: "Stop."
, we are the envoys of the Ming Dynasty, and we have something to ask to see Chief Boluote!"
Although it was only a blink of an eye, four or five of the dozen guards fell under the wave of arrows.
Although this wave of arrows is not dense, and even looking at the arrows, there are only a dozen people in the dark, but I have to say that the archery skills of these Tatars on the grassland are really good.
If these guards were not all elites carefully selected by King Ning, I am afraid that not many of them would be able to stand at this moment just from that wave of arrows.
After Chen Ji finished speaking, the Tatars hiding around him stopped shooting arrows, and soon a figure appeared in the sight of Chen Ji and others.
This person is one of Borot's guards, and is responsible for patrolling Borot's surroundings when he is resting.
He was the one who discovered Liu Yangzheng and his group just now and took action decisively. If Chen Ji had been there for a while at night, I am afraid that Chen Ji and Liu Yangzheng would all be shot dead by these sharpshooters on the grassland.
The guard stepped forward, staring at Chen Ji and others, and finally landed on Liu Yangzheng and Chen Ji, who were obviously the core of the group.
I heard the guard say in pure Ming Dynasty words: "Are you the envoys of the Ming Dynasty?"
Liu Yangzheng took a deep breath, turned over and dismounted and said: "Exactly, I, Liu Yangzheng, are several ministers of His Highness Prince Ning of the Ming Dynasty. This time, I have been ordered by Prince Ning to come here to pay homage to Prince Boluote!"
Although Liu Yangzheng looked a little embarrassed, the scholar's temperament he had cultivated over the years was genuine. The Tatar guard looked at Liu Yangzheng, nodded slightly and said, "Follow me!"
Chen Ji couldn't help but change his expression when he saw this. He had been ordered by King Ning to ensure Liu Yangzheng's safety no matter what. Now the Tatar wanted to take Liu Yangzheng away. If something unexpected happened, how could he tell Ning
Wang explained.
He subconsciously took a step forward and was about to speak, but the next moment, an arrow shot out and sank into the ground half a foot below Chen Ji's feet.
Chen Ji couldn't help but pause, and looked at Liu Yangzheng with a worried look on his face.
Liu Yangzheng shook his head at Chen Ji and said, "Guard Chen, don't worry. If they really want to kill us, it will be effortless given our current situation."
Chen Ji sighed softly and looked around at the Tatar cavalry who were targeting them with arrows from a distance. Just as Liu Yangzheng said, these people were indeed capable of shooting them easily.
Liu Yangzheng mounted his horse and headed towards the place where Bolot settled under the guidance of the Tatar guard.
On the way, Liu Yangzheng tried to get some words out of the other party, but he never expected that the other party would remain silent, leaving Liu Yangzheng without any news at all.
But soon, Liu Yangzheng saw a stream appearing in front of him, and a tent was pitched beside the shallow stream. Especially when he saw the flags on the tent and the patterns embroidered on the tent,
Liu Yangzheng's eyes flashed with light.
Whether it is the patterns embroidered on the tent or the flags planted, it almost shows the identity and status of the owner of the tent.
When several Tatars saw the Tatar guard bringing a strange Han man, they immediately became alert and stared at Liu Yangzheng.
If Liu Yangzheng had done anything untoward, he would probably face the siege of several Tatar warriors in the next moment.
Balsbort looked at Liu Yangzheng in surprise. Liu Yangzheng's Han costume was really too conspicuous. Although there were many caravans entering the grassland, it was not that Boalt had never seen those merchants before. Absolutely
He doesn't have the temperament of Liu Yangzheng.
Boluo Te had only seen such a temperament in very few Ming people, so he was very curious about why Liu Yangzheng came here.
The Tatar guard stepped forward and whispered a few words in Borod's ear. Borod couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he learned Liu Yangzheng's identity. Apparently he didn't expect that the other party was actually the envoy sent by King Ning of the Ming Dynasty.
The several thousand-household tribes under Borot's jurisdiction are just outside the borders of the Ming Dynasty. They can be said to be the Tatar tribe that has the most contacts with the Ming Dynasty.
So Boluot still has a certain understanding of the Ming Dynasty, but it is obviously impossible to say that Boluo knows King Ning of the Ming Dynasty.
The royal family of the Ming Dynasty had more than one or two princes, and there were probably dozens of princes with just names and surnames.
Even people from the Ming Dynasty may not know how many princes there are in the Ming Dynasty, let alone the Tatars outside the customs.
However, Boluo Te was a little curious. A Ming Dynasty prince sent an envoy to visit him, and what was going on.
Boluo Te waved his hand to let Liu Yangzheng come over.
Borat really wasn't worried about Liu Yangzheng's evil deeds. Just looking at Liu Yangzheng's frail appearance, Borat felt that he could kill Liu Yangzheng to the ground with one hand.
Liu Yangzheng took a few steps forward, straightened his clothes, and then saluted Boluote and said: "Liu Yangzheng, an officer of King Ning of the Ming Dynasty, pays homage to the leader."
Liu Yangzheng only noticed that Boroth's identity might be unusual, but he never expected that the other party was Balsboroth, the Tatar prince he came to meet this time, who was in charge of three large Tatar tribes outside the customs.
Boluote glanced at Liu Yangzheng indifferently and said, "Oh, tell me, why did you come all the way to this prairie?"
Boluo Te asked himself that he had nothing to do with Prince Daming Ning, but the other party actually sent people thousands of miles away to pay homage to him. Bo Luo Te was naturally very interested.
Liu Yangzheng took a deep breath and said: "I have come with a secret mission from His Highness Prince Ning. I can only tell you this when I see Prince Balsboro. Please forgive me, Chief."
Seeing Liu Yangzheng's cautious look, several Tatar families accompanying Borod on his trip couldn't help laughing.
One of the big men bit off the rabbit meat in his hand, then grinned at Liu Yangzheng and said: "Don't be that Han envoy, the prince is right in front of you, but you don't know, hahahaha..."
When Liu Yangzheng heard this, he was stunned for a moment. Then he realized what he was saying and immediately saluted Borod: "I am so blind that I didn't know that His Highness was in front of me. If I am rude, please forgive me."
Boluo Te waved his hand, looked at Liu Yangzheng calmly and said: "Well, now that you know the identity of this prince, can you tell me now why you came to see me?
"
Liu Yangzheng subconsciously looked at the Tatars around him. Borod chuckled and said, "These are my close associates. If you have anything to say, just say it."
Since Borat has said this, if he has any objections, he may offend Borat's subordinates first.
Taking a deep breath, Liu Yangzheng said with a serious look on his face: "Prince Boluo, I have been ordered by His Highness Prince Ning to come here specifically to form an alliance with Prince Boluo."
"An alliance?"
Boluo Te couldn't help being stunned when he heard this, with a strange look on his face. It took him a while to realize what he said: "How do you say this? According to what you said, your prince is far away from the south of the Yangtze River in the Ming Dynasty, far away from this place.
How can we form an alliance when we are thousands of miles away, and what's the point?"
Boluo Te did not directly reject Liu Yangzheng, so he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. With a smile on his lips, he spoke to Bo Luo Te with his sharp tongue: "My prince has the ambition to reach the top and seize the throne of the emperor."
…”
"What!"
Borod almost jumped up. He was shocked by Liu Yangzheng's words. You must know that although the Ming Dynasty's national power has declined sharply, in the eyes of the Tatars, it is still a behemoth.
The Emperor of Ming Dynasty is naturally a noble being, but now Liu Yangzheng actually told them that in the Ming Dynasty, a Ming Dynasty prince actually wanted to rebel.
There was so much joy in Boluo Te's heart. Any foreign race would naturally hope that such a behemoth as the Ming Dynasty would have civil strife. It would be best if the Central Plains would be in chaos and fall apart like at the end of the Jin Dynasty or the end of the Tang Dynasty, so that they, the alien races on the grasslands, could
There is a chance to set foot on the Central Plains.
Boluo Te is a qualified leader, and he immediately grasped what kind of benefits the civil strife in the Ming Dynasty would have on them.
Not to mention anything else, let’s just talk about the plan they are planning to plunder the Ming border town. If they send out a large army to invade the border during the civil strife in the Central Plains, then they might not be able to go deeper and plunder more wealth.
, even occupying many cities in the Ming Dynasty is not impossible.
However, Borot did not express his thoughts, but slowly said: "It is not impossible to form an alliance, but I, the prince, command three large Tatar tribes with 10,000 households, and can easily gather tens of thousands of troops, even if they are ten
If you can raise an army of ten thousand, what strength does your prince have to dare to form an alliance with me?"
Liu Yangzheng stroked his beard and said with a smile on his face: "My prince has the support of the entire Jiangnan behind him. As long as my prince is willing, he can gather hundreds of thousands of troops to sweep across the entire Jiangnan at any time. How come he is not qualified to form an alliance with the prince?"
Boluo couldn't help but narrowed his eyes and stared at Liu Yangzheng, but he didn't quite believe that a mere prince could have such great power in the Ming Dynasty. If this was true, wouldn't the Ming Dynasty have long been in chaos?
?
It was obvious that Boluo Te did not believe that Prince Ning had such great ability. He thought that Liu Yangzheng was lying.
However, Liu Yangzheng looked at Boluote with a calm expression, without any hint of guilt or panic. It was obvious that Liu Yangzheng was not lying.
Boluo Te's expression gradually became serious. If Liu Yangzheng was not lying, then he would have to treat Prince Ning with caution.
A Ming prince who can easily gather hundreds of thousands of troops within the Ming Dynasty, what this means, even Boluo Te knows very well.
An unprecedented turmoil is about to break out in the Ming Dynasty. Maybe after a turmoil, a huge empire like the Ming Dynasty will fall apart. And if the Tatars can take the opportunity to send out a large army, it is possible to occupy the Central Plains.
land.
When he thought that if they could occupy the Central Plains and regain the glory of the Yuan Empire in the past, then Boluo Te would definitely become a Mongolian emperor comparable to Genghis Khan, the Qi Yun Shengwu Emperor of Fa Tian Qi Yun. Bo Luo Te could not help but feel excited.
What kind of person Liu Yangzheng was, Boluo Te's heart was agitated, and he naturally showed some emotions. Liu Yangzheng saw it in his eyes. Although he couldn't guess the specific thoughts in Bo Luo Te's heart, he could more or less guess.
This is heartwarming.
As long as Boluo Te is moved, he will live up to King Ning's instructions. If Bo Luo Te can be persuaded, then when the north and south attack, the imperial court will definitely allocate part of its strength to deal with the Tatar army on the Kou border.
, it will certainly be able to greatly reduce the pressure on Prince Ning.
Boluote glanced at Liu Yangzheng and said slowly: "This matter is of great importance and cannot be decided by me alone. I will not give an answer to the envoy until I send someone to summon my father."
Liu Yangzheng was very excited. The sage Boluote saluted and said: "In this way, I will wait for Dayan Khan's reply."
Beijing
More than half a month has passed, and the original chaos has returned to calm, and the capital has remained the same as before. However, on this day, countless people in the entire capital rushed straight to the execution site.
The results have been obtained regarding the treatment of officials such as Jiang Mian. More than 30 officials headed by Jiang Mian were confiscated and exterminated, implicating nine ethnic groups. However, the remaining nearly 100 officials were treated extrajudicially by the emperor, who only punished their entire family.
Implicate other tribesmen.
But even so, if you do some calculations, including the hundreds of Zhu family members, at least thousands of people will be stabbed at this vegetable market this time.
It can be said that this time will definitely exceed the scale of the previous times. It is almost the first time in a hundred years. Just after receiving the news, there are countless people who flocked to see the excitement.
In order to prevent any accidents, Chu Yi personally mobilized tens of thousands of troops from the capital camp to patrol the streets of the capital, and thousands of troops were deployed around Caishikou to maintain order in the law field.
As the prison cars creaked and creaked one after another, the felons were imprisoned on the prison cars, while their relatives were escorted by officers and soldiers in shackles and shackles.
There was a long line with almost no end in sight. Cursing, crying, and laughter like a madman mixed together to stage a scene of the joys and sorrows of life.
