I am the king of the dead

Chapter 900 Let's meet again, let's talk about peace and war
Shi Heng's battle plan highlighted six words, build a stronghold and fight dull battles. This is based on the extremely abundant supply and logistics. Shi Heng is not an act of cowards. After the civil and natural changes, Shi Heng, Fan Guang, Sun Tong and the others were all people who had fought their lives for Daming. They were not cowards, they were just fighting outside the Great Wall. If they were not careful, they would lose everything.

This is the territory of the Oirats, and the Oirats have a natural advantage.

"Your Majesty's treatment of Yang Hanying is beyond my expectation." Shi Heng was a little puzzled in his heart. It stands to reason that in Yang Hanying's situation, if he doesn't accept the rape at night, he is worthy of the friendship between Yang Hanying and Wang Fuying. , actually left Yang Hanying's life behind, and even gave him a dispatch.

Shi Heng and Yang Hanying were in Shanxi Xingdusi, that is, Jining, Hetao and other areas. They had the nickname of Grassland Shuangsha, and the two had a very close personal relationship. They were also wine and meat friends who ate wine together when they had nothing to do. When they arrived at Hetao, it was Shi Heng who went to pick him up.

Shi Heng didn't want His Majesty to forgive Yang Hanying for the sake of him or to give him face at all. If the emperor gave face to his subjects, especially the general, and this general is the commander-in-chief of the army, at this time, Shi Heng would Be careful to hit 1.

Yu Qian looked at Shi Heng. Shi Heng has not been pampered in the court these years, but he has grown a lot of minds. At least Shi Heng will not be fooled by casual means, which is a good thing.

"Marquis Wuqing is too worried." Yu Qian thought for a while and said, "It's an old story. Master Hu once told a certain old news. During the Jianwen period, during the Jingnan battle, civil servants and generals who recruited troops to serve the king were captured. Guess what? How was it handled?"

"Naturally, it will be unforgivable. This Lord Jianwen lost, and the Yan Mansion won." Shi Heng said without thinking, the battle of Jingnan was a rebellion of the feudal lords fighting for the world, and they were on the wrong team. What will happen to An Neng?

Yu Qian shook his head and said: "No, most of these arrested civil servants and generals have been pardoned. If the inspectors are innocent and mediocre, they will be dismissed and released to their relatives. If the inspectors have no mistakes and are talented, the officials will be reinstated. For example, the minister of the Ministry of Industry Zhang Xianzhong, Yang Lian, the governor of Jiangxi Province, Fang An, the inspector of Jiangxi Province, and even the King Yongqin who had been recruited from Jiangxi Province. When they arrived at Yingtian Mansion, Emperor Wen was enthroned, and they were easily captured alive. In the end, they all returned to their original positions. .”

"There is also our Young Master Hu."

"In the 11th year of Yongle, Emperor Wen issued an edict to forgive the old ministers and their families who were exiled. All the exiled ministers and family members were pardoned and returned to their hometowns. At the scene, the old people asked Emperor Wen, if this is forgiven, wouldn't our desperate Jing Nan become a joke?"

"Emperor Wen said that it has been more than ten years, so we have to look forward, don't we?"

"Ah?" Shi Heng looked puzzled, he didn't understand, is this the rumored tyrant Ming Taizong Zhu Di who killed Fang Xiaoru's ten clans?

Yu Qian looked at Shi Heng's appearance and said with a smile: "The story is just a story. For Emperor Wen, rumors and rumors are insignificant and insignificant. Let them talk nonsense."

"But Yang Hanying's situation is different from that of Yang Lian, Zhang Xianzhong, Fang An, and Hu Shaoshi. He is rebellious." Shi Heng was still a little surprised. Can this Yang Hanying cover up with the righteousness of the monarch and his ministers?
"Yang Hanying took a bunch of people and ran to Oala, and they scattered a lot. After the battle of Jining, the birds and beasts scattered. Yang Hanying didn't give any advice, let alone Xining. In that way, I personally ran to Zijing Pass to open the pass, so Xin Ning went to Jieyuan and sat in a private seat, and Yang Hanying, Your Majesty can still let him live as long as he does not return to Daming." Yu Qian patiently explained the details difference.

Yang Hanying did not cause any bad consequences, but after arriving in Helin, Yang Hanying was very helpful to the event of not accepting the night.

Yu Qian continued: "Your Majesty is also consistent. Liu Pu, the general of Guangdong and Guangxi, and the Marquis of Anyuan, rebelled against the rebellion. After being defeated, he ran to Jiaozhi. In the case of Annan in Daming County, it was very helpful for Daming to march. Even if Liu Pu did not If he hangs himself, His Majesty will not order him to be killed, Liu Pu's heir will still be Marquis Anyuan of Daming, but he will stay in Jiaozhi and never return to court."

"So that's how it is." Only then did Shi Heng understand that he did not participate in the Annan battle in the county. At that time, he was suppressing bandits in Daningwei. When Beijing arrived in Tongzhou, Shi Heng was ordered to meet with him, and Shi Heng was still appointed as the guide. Shi Heng's heart that was raised in his throat was put back in his stomach.

"Your Majesty is merciful. People at the time were bewitched by rumors and misunderstood a lot." Yu Qian said helplessly. Everyone said that His Majesty was violent, but Yu Qian felt that this was wrong. His Majesty was actually very simple.

His Majesty has always had a very clear standard for judging right from wrong, which is to harm Daming's interests or not to harm Daming's interests.

As long as it doesn't harm Daming's interests, it won't be a life-and-death situation, and it's easy to discuss, but if Daming's interests are harmed, then there will be only thunder and no rain and dew here for Zhu Qiyu.

Yu Qian also said very frankly: "From the bottom of my heart, even I didn't have the will to win the battle of the capital. After all, King Jili, who was the emperor, was captured at that time, and there were only two soldiers in the old camp of the capital. Wan, at that time, Chaoyang Gate had specially arranged people, and if things went wrong, they would follow His Majesty to go south at any time, and then make plans."

Civil and natural changes are like the collapse of the sky. If Yang Hanying's defection insists on washing the ground, it can also wash the ground from the perspective of the righteousness of the monarch and ministers. After all, King Jili was captured, and Yang Hanying defected to Wala. Isn't that the righteousness of the monarchs and ministers to follow their own monarch? ?Of course, washing the floor like this is too blunt.

"What does Yu Shaobao think Yang Hanying should do?" Shi Heng was curious about Yu Qian's attitude.

Yu Qian said without hesitation: "Damn it. When His Majesty asked me, I said the same thing. Damn it, but he is not important, just like this place is to Daming. It is not important, but it is beneficial for him to live."

Yu Qian can understand His Majesty's decision, and can even explain one or two things. It just means that he does not object, but it does not mean that he supports this decision. He is a loyal minister. This kind of traitor is punishable by everyone, and Yang Hanying will be left alone for a day. The world is an insult to the word loyalty.

Yang Hanying is not important, and Yu Qian is not guilty of creating a rift with His Majesty for such an unimportant person. If His Majesty wants to kill or keep him, naturally His Majesty has the final say.

In particular, Yang Hanying's life is more useful than death, and Yang Hanying's life is beneficial to Daming, so Yu Qian has no objection to this decision.

In the early morning of the next day, the sky was clear and cloudless, but it was not too hot in Helin. Yu Qian was still wrapped in a big cloak when he went out, and the grassland was windy, so the doctor who accompanied Yu Qian still hung a big cloak for Yu Qian, wrapped it tightly Strictly speaking, the doctor was sent by His Majesty the Emperor, and this is just His Majesty's task.

Yu Qian was wrapped in a cloak, the military flag was fluttering in the strong wind of the grassland, and the artillery camp of Daming was pulled outside the Katumata mountain pass. The long artillery line was endless, and the number of tens of thousands was immeasurable. The artillery of the Shenji Battalion, and the commanding officer riding around passing military orders around, the entire barracks was busy for a while.

"The weakest part of the Shenji Battalion is the flanks. Once the flanks are lost, the artillery and firecrackers are meat on the chopping block, so there must be light cavalry on both sides to support them, and chariots to prevent the enemy's cavalry from rushing into the formation. "Shi Heng explained the layout of the army formation to Qian. For the artillery and firecrackers, the front is purgatory, but the two wings are the breakthrough. How to defend the two wings has become what Shi Heng has been studying.

At the outermost edge is the defense line of light cavalry, followed by the defense line of chariots and hook gunmen. If these two lines of defense are breached and the camp of gunfire soldiers has not even changed direction, then the defeat is over.

Yu Qian and Shi Heng discussed the military deployment of the Daming Artillery, and they discussed a lot. Yu Qian also has military talent.

"General, all the battalions are ready." Several commanders came to Shi Heng and reported the preparations of each battalion.

Shi Heng took two steps forward, turned the tooth flag, and signaled the commander who carried the flag to wave it forward and backward twice. The sign language is two words: fire.

On weekdays, Shi Heng seldom commanded through the tooth flag, but this time the bombardment of Katongta Mountain Pass was for deterrence, so it must be uniform to be more deterrent. Frightening people is a must for military strategists.

After waving the dental flag, the sergeants started to move, and the ten black cannons with dragon patterns in the middle were the black dragon cannons.

This is the artillery with the largest caliber in the Ming Dynasty. During the Northern Expedition, Daming only brought ten of them. A artillery of this size can be used on a ship to give full play to its power. On land, there is only one role of this artillery. That is deterrence.

The Black Dragon Pao was in the Beijing camp, representing His Majesty's will, and the submissive Shi Heng fired the Black Dragon Pao first.

Yu Qian is talented in military affairs. When he commanded the battle for the first time, he said that out of the many firearms invented and created by the Military Weapons Supervisor of the Ming Dynasty, only the mother-child cannon is the most useful. In one sentence, he can see the general trend of artillery. If your Majesty thinks it is a waste, then waste it. During the Jingtai years, the military development of Daming was at the forefront of the world. Everything ahead is unknown. Only a lot of trial and error can we find the result.

Yu Qian deeply agrees with this statement. This is how the Black Dragon Cannon was born. At the beginning, the Black Dragon Cannon could not be fired at all. It was a typical salute. It was pulled out to scare barbarian envoys during the Spring and Autumn Parade. After all, Daming was still weak at that time and needed to scare people. Now the Black Dragon Cannon has become a symbol of His Majesty, a concrete manifestation of His Majesty's will.

"What's that?" Ara Zhiyuan stood on the city gate and looked at the black cannon, feeling something bad in his heart, and asked Yang Hanying beside him.

It's just that Ara Zhiyuan didn't wait for an answer. He turned his head and saw Yang Hanying hurried down the city wall with Agui.

Ran!

Ara Zhiyuan didn't care what that thing was, and immediately took a few steps to catch up with Yang Hanying. Yang Hanying knew Daming Yang Hanying better than Ala Zhiyuan, so this thing was not easy to mess with at first glance.

As soon as Ara Zhiyuan ran down the city wall, he heard a huge impact and explosion, which made his head buzzing, and when he looked back, the Wufeng Tower on the city gate had already collapsed under artillery fire.

Ara Zhiyuan ran away, because this was only the first artillery piece. Besides the Black Dragon Cannon, the Ming Army also had nearly a thousand pieces of artillery ready to go.

"What am I capable of!" When Ara Zhiyuan caught up with Yang Hanying, he was already exhausted, and he was limp by the wall. At the moment when the shell exploded, his legs were so weak, why did he stand dead? , This fear of being blasted into pieces is simply fatal.

"It's so extravagant." Yang Hanying said viciously. He now agrees with what the dead Bo said. The emperor of Ming Dynasty is really insane. This is artillery, just this round of artillery salvo in the morning , is enough to buy the life of Ara Zhiyuan,
Yang Hanying felt even more remorseful. If he hadn't defected back then, how chic would his life in Daming be?Wherever you want to hit, you only need two words, fire.

With this firepower, where in the world is there a strong city that cannot be conquered?

The Yang family of Bozhou highly agrees with Yang Hanying's idea. At the beginning, Hailongwei was a cliff of nearly a hundred feet, and it was bombarded to pieces by Daming's artillery. There must be so many guns, so much gunpowder, so many artillerymen.

"What are you talking about? I can't hear!" Ara Zhiyuan said loudly, his ears were temporarily deaf from the shock, and he couldn't hear anything but humming.

"It's nothing, it's just that the firepower is too strong." Yang Hanying also replied loudly.

But Ara Zhiyuan still couldn't hear a word, only Yang Hanying was opening his mouth.

Shi Heng inspected the results of the ten black dragon cannons and was very satisfied. The volley of ten black dragon cannons had blown up the city gate to pieces. The purpose of deterrence is achieved.

Nearly a thousand cannons fired in unison, and the city gate at Katongta Pass was covered under artillery fire.

"Collapsed?" Shi Heng put down the binoculars, and looked at it again with uncertainty. Under the smoke and gunpowder smoke, a huge gap had collapsed in the seemingly indestructible city gate, and there was no possibility of repairing it.

Yu Qian also said quite confidently: "It's collapsed."

The city gate at the Katotonta Pass suffered firepower it shouldn't have, and it's reasonable to collapse. After all, at the beginning of the design, there was no plan to be fired by nearly a thousand artillery volleys.

"If it collapses, it will collapse. Let's continue to explode." Shi Heng said dumbfounded: "I thought it could last three days, but it didn't last this round."

"Then continue to bomb until it completely collapses." Yu Qian quite agrees with Shi Heng's decision, although there is a gap in the collapse, the city gate is still there.

It is very difficult to attack a fortified city. When the fortified city is not there, the difficulty will not exist, which is very reasonable.

After another round of artillery salvo in the evening, the city wall of the city gate was completely in ruins, and the gourd shape of Katong Tower Pass became a straight cylinder, taking the shape of Ming Dynasty.

Daming's artillery is really too big, and the Katong Tower Pass can't accommodate this firepower at all.

"Ara Zhiyuan has asked for peace." Shi Heng put a pond newspaper on the table, and the effect of the artillery salvo on the first day was better than he thought.

But Yu Qian shook his head and said: "It's too late. The Great Ming laborer mobilized everyone to come here. Did he ask for peace if he wanted to? Tell the Ara Zhiyuan to send his head in a box. When the head comes, we can make peace again." war."

At the beginning, Ara Zhiyuan communicated with Honglu Temple, and said that he wanted to kill him, Yu Qian, so that he could discuss such wild words. Now when it comes to him, Yu Qian speaks wild words, but Yu Qian is standing on the basis of strength. Zhiyuan talked about the head.

In fact, Yu Qian somewhat didn't understand the thinking of Ara Zhiyuan, what's the use of killing him?The backbone of Daming is His Majesty, if not for this, Yu Qian, as the head of all officials, would not be able to come out to supervise military affairs, and went to Hara and Lin Yaowu to show off his power.

The condition of Ara Zhiyuan can be said to have pushed Daming into a corner. There are some unwritten rules in the Ming Dynasty. For example, when talking about the two Songs, especially the Southern Song Dynasty, it is based on historical lessons. With this condition, Daming has no way to retreat. retreat.

The Ara Zhiyuan had to kill Yu Qian to negotiate a peace. This is a fool's dream, but Yu Qian said that he wanted the Ara Zhiyuan to die, so Yu Qian was not the only one who wanted the Arazhiyuan to die.

　Ask for a monthly ticket, woo! ! ! ! ! !
