For example, Kong Kejian, with his nose upturned, asked Fang to arrive three times, rode on Zhu Yuanzhang's head with Zhou etiquette, and shouted loudly, Fengyang Zhu, an upstart.

For example, those scholar-bureaucrats who refused to become officials threatened the imperial court by refusing to become officials. Even though Emperor Taizu Gao killed Xia Boqi's uncle and nephew who had broken fingers and refused to become officials, they still could not let them become officials.

Deng Yuke returned to Huizhou. Zheng Yu, a Confucian scholar and loyal man of the former Yuan Dynasty, refused to become an official. Deng Yu asked three times, but Zheng Yujian refused. After seven days of hunger strike, he hanged himself.

Zhu Yuanzhang went to Suzhou to seek advice from celebrities to govern the country. Ma Yulin, a well-known Confucian scholar in the former Yuan Dynasty, refused to become an official. Both jade and stone are burned. On this day, the news from the Central Plains is still at a loss." He committed suicide by taking poison, and he never forgot the news from the Central Plains when he was dying.

Xu Dake returned to Wenzhou, and the Ming army entered the city. Chen Da, a Yongjia native who was a former scholar in the Imperial Academy of the Yuan Dynasty, failed to commit suicide. Without taking medicine or drinking water, he committed suicide by throwing himself into a well.

They have a unified name, called Yuan Confucianism, Loyal and righteous people, and most of them are advertised as loyal.

Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't understand the reason. He asked Liu Ji, we are all Han Chinese, with tattoos on our faces as slaves. After finally expelling the Tartars and restoring the Chinese clothes, they died with a bun in order to be loyal to the Hulus?

The bun is an oval bun left on the Tianling Gai, with braids behind it, which means that if you die with a barbarian hairstyle, you will not be loyal to Ming Dynasty.

Liu Ji was speechless.

In the end, Zhu Yuanzhang had no choice but to issue an edict: "Families with food and salary are equal to common people, high and low. There is no distinction between gentlemen and savages. It is not the way to persuade scholars to treat virtuous people. Apart from rent and tax, they are exempted from corvee."

Only the scholar-bureaucrats were given privileges, and these scholar-bureaucrats were willing to become officials and govern the country.

Emperor Taizu Gao went on an expedition to Mobei, but returned in defeat. Because the north was withered at that time, the population was sparse, and the logistics supply was not good, so he could only pinch his nose and shout out the country of no conquest, to stabilize the hearts of the vassals.

He suffered these grievances at the time, just not to let future generations be wronged.

At that time, it was not conscripted because of the general situation, and Zhu Yuanzhang could not conscript.

At that time, the Yuan Dynasty was recognized as Zhengshuo, and it was said that the destiny of the real man was in the desert, and he entered China as the master of the world. He said that he suffered that grievance so that the descendants of Ming Dynasty would not be wronged by tattooing as slaves.

Mandulu is not an idiot, he knows that the Great Emperor Ming is suffocating in his heart, and besides the grievances of his ancestors, the Great Emperor also has his own grievances.

As soon as anyone ascended the throne, the capital was besieged before the door was opened, and it would be strange not to feel wronged.

If the Tatars don't know what is good and bad, and insist on what to say about the grassland, I have the final say, then Daming immediately discards the so-called reincarnation of destiny as a shoestring.

The great emperor must have led the army to flatten and round the Tatars again into the shape of Ming Dynasty.

Didn't Emperor Taizong of the Ming Dynasty do just that?

The Ming emperor was reasonable, but only when the grassland people were submissive would they be reasonable.

If the grassland people are disobedient, they will be beaten until their roots are broken.

The incidents caused by the Oirats were settled by themselves. The emperor established a tribute market in Xuanfu and agreed to the tribute market of the Tatars and Ming Dynasty. This is the long-term strategy.

The starting point of Mandulu is the people of Tatar. The starting point of Tuotuobuhua is to weaken the strength of the Wala people, standing up and pawning the Khan. Agadorji saw that the Wala people were weak, so he stopped playing and went home. up.

The Tatar Ministry reached a consensus, expressed their obedience, and survived smoothly.

Mandulu's withdrawal led a group of Tatar kings who jumped left and right to leave the Guanshan discussion table.

The Oirats are completely different. They cannot retreat. If they retreat one step now, they will have to retreat a hundred steps, a thousand steps tomorrow, and even go west to survive.

Ara Zhiyuan took a deep breath and said: "Continue to discuss the matter, the Great Ming Shaobao Yu Qian has issued a letter of war, how should we retreat from the enemy?"

What Ara Zhiyuan didn't know was that when they were discussing how to retreat from the enemy, Shi Heng dragged Daming's General Zhenglu Cannon to Xinghe Suotu City.

Shi Heng patted the huge General Zhenglu cannon, and shouted loudly: "Wufen Camp Shenji Battalion are all commanding? Let's fire his mother's cannon!"

How big is this cannon?

It is about half a ceremonial guard, weighs about [-] jin, and has an aperture of only half a foot. It uses [-] jin of gunpowder at a time, and the shell is [-] jin of lead. It is an experimental product of Wang Gong's factory, and five doors were built.

After it was built, everyone found that this thing couldn't be transported at all. First, it was too heavy. If it wasn't for the cinders to smooth the road, it wouldn't be able to be transported to the front line.Second, it is too wasteful to use gunpowder in this way.

But everything has been created, so can’t it be destroyed?

"waste"

The Tucheng of Xinghesuo became a place for testing artillery.

Wufenying Shenji Battalion commanded people to fill it. This filling is very lengthy. It is different from the General Cannon, especially the wide diameter. Deflagration, resulting in a decrease in power.

After this thing was built, I tried it several times, but there was a loud roar, and the shells flew out of the bore hole less than five steps away, mocking the whims of the Ming people.

However, after trial and error, the cannon was finally able to fire, and it was extremely powerful.

After the gun carriage was fixed, the commander signaled everyone to stay away, because there was too much gunpowder, and the chamber exploded into fragments to hurt people.

Shi Heng had seen this thing explode, so he signaled the others to stay away.

The shattered sides of the gun barrel flew around, more terrifying than arrows.

Huozhezi lit the torch, and the torch ignited Huojian. The commander who lit the fire turned his head and ran away. After more than 20 steps, he stopped at Shi Heng's position, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

The fire twilight continued to burn, and it was divided into six strands from one strand, and then passed through the fire door and sank into the barrel of the gun, and there was no sound.

Everyone present covered their ears.

Yu Qian also covered his ears in a dignified manner. Although he didn't know how loud the sound was, the power of so much gunpowder was obviously not small.

"boom!"

The soundless explosion that resounded through the world suddenly sounded on the grassland, and a shock wave spread around the five General Zhenglu's gun emplacements, scattering the dust on the grassland. bit.

The cannonball was fired quickly, reflecting the sunlight, and slammed into the city wall of Xinghesuo at a very high speed.

"Snapped!"

The shells were embedded in the rammed earth layer, and the rammed earth layer began to crack, as if it had cracked, and collapsed with the shells.

A cannonball flew in the direction of Wufenglou, but there was obviously a slight deviation in the hit, and it hit the gate of Xinghesuo, and there were continuous sounds of collapse, and dust was flying.

Apparently, the Walla people guarding the city had never expected that Daming's artillery was so powerful and hit the city gate so accurately. They stared dumbfounded at the five general Zhenglu cannons, and saw that their city was shot out of five huge guns. The gap in the city, the city gate collapsed, and countless people were buried.

Sadness is everywhere.

Shi Heng took a deep breath and shouted loudly: "The Fifth Army Battalion obeys the order and prepares to attack the city! The Three Thousand Battalion obeys the order and covers the flanks! The Shenji Battalion obeys the order to suppress the defending arrows and firearms with artillery!"

"The whole army obeys my orders!"

"attack!"

The infantry soldiers moved forward steadily, and put wooden planks in the trenches, while Daming's cavalry began to line up and galloped towards Xinghe Station. They did not attack the city, but mounted and shot to cover the infantry attack.

Daming's army pushed the cloud cart and Wu Gang cart as cover, planning to approach the city wall.

The artillery line of the generals in the Shenji Battalion began to roar, and the lead bullets roared towards the top of the city, breaking gaps one after another.

The Oirats were already resisting, but their archers were suppressed by Daming's cavalry, artillery, and lead, so they couldn't probe at all. The city wall was damaged, and they lost their cover, so they could only hide and shiver.

Some people were even scared out of their wits, lost control of their hands, and cried for their father and mother.

Even some of the Wala generals who were supervising the battle were still supervising the battle just now, and when they turned their heads, they were smashed to pieces by shells and turned into a handful of blood mist.

When the Ming army on the cloud car rushed to the top of the city, the balance of victory in the battle had already tilted towards the Ming army.

Shi Heng patted the General Zhenglu Cannon, which was still warm, it was very useful for attacking cities, but in this world, how could there be so many cities for Daming to attack?

"It's too wasteful. More than 100 catties of gunpowder will be gone in one fell swoop. How many shots can be shot." Shi Heng shook his head again and again.

Yu Qian said with a smile: "Your Majesty says every day that the lamps in the household department have only one wick, but they don't know that the lamps in Tai'an Palace also have only one wick."

"Okay, when the cannon fired, you felt distressed with only 150 catties of gunpowder? It turns out that the lamps of the [-]th Regiment Battalion only had one wick."

Shi Heng tried to push, and at least five or sixty people pushed this six-thousand-jin big guy together. He shook his head and said, "Your Majesty is frugal, so we have to save some money, even though we have prepared a lot of gunpowder this time." , but it can’t be wasted like Sun Boring.”

Sun Boring bombed the tomb of King Jili, using three or four thousand catties of gunpowder, and Shi Heng felt distressed for a long time.

"Let's go into the city." Yu Qian reined in his horse, looked at the dilapidated city and shook his head, and said helplessly, "I don't know what to resist. I know that Daming is eager for revenge for this move, so I will definitely do my best. I have to give it a try." try."

"drive."

Yu Qian rode back to Wanquandusi.

In Yu Qian's view, the Oirats have the only chance of victory, which is to attack Wanquan, Datong, and Xuanfu, but Yu Qian is guarding against them in these three places.

The intelligence that Yebu received solved a huge problem that the Ming army had had before going out to fight in the fortress, that is, they could not fully understand the situation.

Yu Qian returned to Wanquandu Division, checked all kinds of information, and picked up all kinds of old slips handed over by the commanding officer.

These things are very interesting, and can let Yu Qian deeply understand the inside and outside of Daming.

Yu Qian picked out some old notes, pasted them, and prepared to send them back to Beijing for His Majesty to read.

At this time, in the Guanshan discussion platform, the Ara Zhiyuan had just gathered up the morale of the army, and planned to fight against Daming to the death, so as to win each other with death.

In the view of the Ara Zhiyuan, Yu Qian was able to push the Oirats into a dilemma. In the capital, the well-trained Oirats should be able to do so.

Ara Zhiyuan stood up, pointed to Kanyu map and said: "Everyone, the Ming army is nothing to be afraid of. We have eaten up 20 Ming troops and 30 civilians in Tumubao before!"

"Da Ming is not invincible, and Da Ming is not invulnerable. They also have weaknesses, and they are also timid. When they lack supplies, they are as timid as prairie foxes!"

"Their generals haven't fought a war for more than ten years, just like domestic dogs in captivity, lacking experience in fighting the enemy!"

"The Ming army is vulnerable!"

"We must cheer up. Once they enter the grassland, we must give them a head-on blow and tell them that the grassland is the world blessed by Changshengtian!"

Ara Zhiyuan took a deep breath, took a step forward, and said loudly: "It's like yesterday, we Wala people repelled the Ming army's attack on Xinghesuo!"

"Victory will belong to us! Hetao will belong to us! The grassland will also..."

Ara Zhiyuan was about to shout the last cry, but the impassioned shout was interrupted by the hurried figure of a messenger.

"Ala Pingzhang, Batut Otoks, the whole army has been wiped out..." The herald ran up to the stage already out of breath, knelt on the ground, and said extremely sadly.

Pingzhang is the position of the Ara Zhiyuan, similar to the prime minister.

Batut is the name of their tribe in Ala Zhiyuan, and Otoke means the tribe, that is, the warriors of the Batut tribe who died in the battle at Xinghesuo.

As soon as this remark came out, the generals on the conference table and some Tatar kings who planned to follow the Oirats to make a fortune immediately seemed to be blown up. They talked loudly to each other, full of anxiety.

On the Guanshan forum, the strategy they discussed was to start an inch-by-inch scramble near Xinghe, spread out all the cavalry, and take advantage of the large number of horses and good mobility to sneak attack the Ming army at any time.

Like a poisonous snake lurking in a cave, it could deal a fatal blow to the Ming army at any time. If they could find the location of Daming's food and grass and burn it, they would naturally force the Ming army to retreat.

But Xinghe Institute... fell, and the speed was so fast.

Ara Zhiyuan raised his hand and stood there for a long time, then he asked in a daze, "What did you say? Xinghe was captured by Ming Dynasty? Wasn't there still a stalemate yesterday? How come today... how come, so fast. "

The herald shook his head profusely with sweat and said, "Ara Pingzhang, we don't know, and we can't find any news. Yebushou is full of Xinghesuo. I only heard from the rout soldiers that it has fallen over there."

"Those rout soldiers acted like they were crazy, yelling strange things like Emperor Zhenwu descending to earth and thunder."

Ara Zhiyuan flicked his sleeves vigorously, and shouted loudly: "Impossible, absolutely impossible, you are greedy for life and fear of death, and want to escape, no, you are a spy of the Ming army! Make noise on this forum and shake your mind. Military spirit!"

Ara Zhiyuan pulled out the scimitar from his waist, kicked the herald to the ground, and made a gesture to chop it down.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible. With all the five thousand defenders in Xinghe, as well as firecrackers and cannons, relying on the city wall, how could it be possible to fall so quickly?"

"Even five thousand pigs, you can't kill them all in one day!"

Several Tatar kings looked at me and I looked at you. They quietly stepped back a few steps, walked out of the conference table, rode fast horses, and sped away.

If he continued to make a fortune, he might even lose his life.

The Ming Army did have a spy at the Guanshan Forum, but it was not the herald, but a man who was responsible for providing information.

In the evening, Yu Qian received the information, and together with Chen Tiao, sent him back to the capital overnight.

The content of those stereotypes is very interesting, and can effectively alleviate the problem of insufficient medical observation objects in Taiyuan Hospital.

Chapter 263 The Emperor's Palace Examination Questions, Great Mathematicians Reference

Zhu Qiyu received Yu Qian's memorabilia, those old notes are indeed very interesting.

It is an undeniable fact that Zhu Di is a great monarch.After all, the vassal king was able to rebel and enter the capital to become emperor. Looking at the long history, this is the only case.

But Zhu Di is obviously not a qualified businessman, this is not a big shortcoming.

The emperors of the Ming Dynasty were not very good at financial affairs, and if they were good at it, they would not be poor.

The emperors of the Song Dynasty were very good at this. For example, Zhao Gou was the dung tyrant of Lin'an City.

What is a dung bully?

[The names of Deshou books are all over the city, and one Ding is worth three thousand Fu.There is no need to ask more about the brocade of lanterns, the flag of Yiyi Palace and the boat of dung. ——Zhou Mi, a man of the Southern Song Dynasty, "Qi Dong Yeyu"]

Deoksugung Palace is the palace where Zhao Gouchan lived after giving it to his adopted son.

Dung is a commodity that is in short supply. Zhao Gou works as a dung bully in Lin'an City to make money, and the dung is turned into fertilizer and sold to the countryside.

Zhao Gou also did a lot of things to get rich, such as real estate, which is one of the myths of getting rich, and he was in Lin'an in the Southern Song Dynasty, doing a lot of real estate.For example, Qingdaoqian, one of the myths of getting rich, is actively engaged in the release of money from the people.
