my days with tyrants

A hundred households in Ningshanwei.

"This is the life of you military households in the future."

Yang Feng said.

Of course, he was in disguise.

The same makeup as no makeup.

Ningshanwei has seen him a lot. After the last Xingzhenyi battle, he came to Zezhou amidst a crowd of spectators, so even though he is wearing civilian clothes, these military households can recognize him unless they are blind. find out who he is.

but……

This is trustworthy!
It's not Ambassador Yang and they still don't believe it!
"Look, what did I say?
His Majesty is still here, yet Chen Baihu dared to trick us into buying his cotton in secret. His cotton was [-]% more expensive than others and it was adulterated. Anyone who would not buy it would deliberately arrange some hard work. Hey, don't dare to go too far, if there is no pressure from His Majesty, why would he not dare?Your Majesty came from a poor background and was sympathetic to military households. Although the emperor's grandson was also benevolent and filial, after all, he grew up in a wealthy family, just like the young master of that rich family, so he certainly would not be as sympathetic to military households as His Majesty.

Don't talk about the grandson of the emperor.

King Jin, King Qin, or even Prince Yiwen, who is as good as His Majesty?
Not to mention being sympathetic to military households, it is common to kill guarding military households at will, even like King Lu.

This is only the second generation, the third generation of the emperor's grandson, and they don't care about the military households. Once they no longer sympathize with the military households like His Majesty, wouldn't Chen Baihu do whatever he wants?We have to listen to him. At that time, I am afraid that it is true as Ambassador Yang said, that no one cares about us military households as slaves. "

Said an old soldier.

At this time, there are three or four hundred young men gathered here, all of them are Zhengbing and Yu Ding from this Baihutun.

Ning Shanwei is currently sitting and watching.

The military households all want to divide the land. Although the generals want to maintain the old system, they dare not do anything when their subordinates are united, so they just restrain their subordinates from messing around with the troublemakers.

I dare not do anything else.

Can't do it either.

After all, they are all sober.

At a time like this, if the military households are forcibly forced to wipe out the troublesome people, the military households might turn against each other. After all, we all fought together and knew each other very well. Who are these military households?They were all the troublemakers in the past, and they were the most troublesome among the troublemakers. They are indeed all responsible people now, but in their bones, they are still the group who rose up and killed the world with blood.

Troubled is not enough to describe them.

These are all rebels.

And under such delicate situation, Ambassador Yang sneaked in.

The other military households looked at each other.

Just now, Ambassador Yang has clearly told them how the military households will be enslaved in the future, and they also know very well that Ambassador Yang cannot lie to them...

What Yang Feng said already existed.

Generals and private soldiers.

Have.

Although His Majesty the Emperor specifically stated and severely punished in the edict, it cannot really change, because this is an extremely common situation. For example, if a general’s family wants to repair a house, it must not be too much to ask some military households to help, right?We are all old brothers, and we can help with this kind of help, but do military households expect military officers to help when building houses?He needs to help repair the house, doesn't he also have to help with weddings and funerals?So is this considered a private soldier?
Of course, there are also deductions.

also punished.

But the general forced the military household to buy the goods sold by his family and then profit from it, so what's the matter?

He did not withhold money and food, but he also took all the money and food from the military households into his pocket.

There are also various relatively concealed, but in fact, still means of squeezing military households.

This is the emperor is still alive.

So what if the emperor is gone?
These generals don't have the coercion of the emperor, so they don't need to be as cautious as they are now. What Yang Feng said will definitely become reality.These military households will have to become serfs of the generals, and their wives and children will starve to death when they go to war, and they will be enslaved by the generals for generations if they don't go to war.

To flee is to desert.

In the end, the hero who fought the world for Ming Dynasty became the lowest-level serf.

And now...

"The opportunity for change is here.

You have to understand that people have to fight for their own good life, and can't count on some holy master. Your emperor is a special case, and there has never been a second emperor like him since ancient times.His descendants will also not be like him, no matter King Yan, grandson of the emperor, or King Guangze, they are all born to be superior.

I won't look down at you.

Unless you force them to bow their heads. "

Yang Feng said.

This one really doesn't need much prodding.

Because the encounters of military households in the future in history have already happened at this time. Isn't the generals following Zhu Yuanzhang just to be a master?Their military positions are hereditary, as long as they don't make serious mistakes, they will always belong to their family. Isn't the military household their private property?
Anything.

Good at killing military households.

Have.

Article No. 14 of the Dagao Military Position, military officers from thousands of households and hundreds of households in six places killed military households for petty crimes.

Withhold money and food.

Have.

Wu Zhi No. 16 records [-] cases of military officers from thousands of households and hundreds of households embezzling money and food all over the country.

Do it like Chen Baihu.

Have.

Military position No. 20, Fei Jin, a thousand households of Haining Guards, under the guise of building a barracks, sent soldiers to cut bamboo and cut thatch, and then hoarded them, and then ordered the military households not to go out to cut firewood. If you want to cook, you have to ask him to buy these bamboo thatch.

Rape a woman from a military household, kill people after the incident, force the military household to pay money and embezzle it privately, intercept the military household who went to Beijing to complain They embezzled it privately, forcing military households to buy their own food, and eventually hundreds of them starved to death.Even a hundred households of Jinwu guards took the navy to the sea to transport grain. The soldiers raised their own money to buy wine and meat for sacrifices in order to pray for safety. Afterwards, the sacrifices were not sent to him. , Even if I die, my son will still be an official.

These are clearly recorded in the Dagao.

It's just that Zhu Yuanzhang was there, and he was found and severely punished.

But what about without him?
Who will sympathize with military households?

The tyrannical King Qin, and the King Lu who cut the eggs of military household children to make alchemy, are they the second generations who are sympathetic to military households?
Not to mention that the emperor's grandson has been three generations.

They are not Zhu Yuanzhang, they have never experienced suffering, and they will not look at the demands of the low-level military households. In their eyes, military households are just numbers.Not to mention them, in fact, the military households had not had a good life during Zhu Di's time. The envoys who paid tribute recorded that military households starved to death outside the capital, but he opened up the outside world and covered up internal problems with external plunder.

After all, as long as you go out to fight, if the Ming army's combat effectiveness is still there, you can supplement it by looting.

And it can be promoted quickly.

This is inevitable.

"Uncle Li, there is a fight at the Tianjing Gate!"

A young man ran in and said.

At this time, the faint sound of cannon has been heard.

This Baihutun was the closest to Tianjingguan, and it was originally used for support. Everyone ran out together to look in the direction of Tianjingguan, and gunpowder smoke had already appeared in the sky.

There were [-] young men from Zezhou and several nearby counties there. They were led by more than a dozen capitals to control Tianjing Pass, and their weapons and equipment were not bad, mainly because of Yi Guoye's full support.This craftsman, one of Shanxi's main government smelters, manufactured a large number of rapid-fire guns for them as quickly as possible, and even amplified and cast real heavy guns after imitating the field guns of the Shenji Camp...

The iron Hongyi cannons used in large quantities on the northern Great Wall line in the late Ming Dynasty were made in Shanxi.

And Zezhou is the main producing area.

Shanxi's unique incense coal crucible steel casting technology.

But these are not regular troops after all.

"Ambassador, can you give me a clear sentence, if the imperial court makes a big attack, will you help us?"

Uncle Li turned around and asked.

"You can rest assured that if Xie Cheng just forcibly broke through to arrest people, then I will not intervene. If the officers and soldiers from other directions also attack, then the River God will appear again."

Yang Feng said.

"That's enough!
You guys, we really can't count on others for the good life of our own children and grandchildren!

What comes out is real. "

Uncle Li shouted.

Immediately afterwards, those young and strong shouted, and then quickly rushed to the armory, directly smashed the door lock, and took out armor weapons from inside, including those Yu Ding, who also quickly armed themselves.But Uncle Li dragged the messenger and asked him to notify the other Baihutun, who left immediately, and soon a team of nearly 400 people assembled.And a few older veterans directly acted as commanders, and they all cooperated with each other for decades, and the young and strong were also their juniors, so it can be said that the reorganization was completed in a blink of an eye.

"Ambassador, please take care of everything!"

Uncle Li saluted Yang Feng.

"You put it down, Yang will live up to his trust!"

Yang Feng said.

The latter didn't say any more, and immediately rushed to the courtyard with these young men.

Yang Feng watched with satisfaction from behind.

"What do you all want to do? Those unscrupulous people are making trouble, don't you want to make trouble too?"

Then Chen Baihu appeared on a horse.

These generals were all hiding, probably because they heard that Yang Feng was coming and knew that nothing good happened, so they ran back quickly.

Uncle Li glanced at him, and then waved his hand bluntly. A group of young men rushed towards Chen Baihu. The latter hurriedly drew his sword, but the moment he pulled it out, Yang Feng appeared in front of him, smiling beside his horse. Looking at him non-smilingly.Chen Baihu struggled with the knife, not knowing whether to attack or not, but the next moment Yang Feng grabbed his arm and pulled him off the horse quickly...

"Baihu, you are such a powerful official, let's go in and have a good talk."

Yang Feng said.

Then he grabbed Chen Baihu's neck and dragged him to the next house.

Uncle Chen took the people away.

Yang Feng simply threw Chen Baihu into the door of the room, and then ignored it. Chen Baihu, who was thrown inside, just struggled to get up, and suddenly his IQ went online, and he lay down there and pretended to be dead.

Patio off.

"These tricksters!"

Xie Cheng, who personally commanded, looked at the retreating Shenji camp with hatred.

Of course, it's not that Shenjiying is not brave.

In fact, the performance of the Shenji Battalion was qualified, field artillery bombardment, mortar artillery bombardment, and then the infantry entered the city with cold weapons under the cover of a row of guns, and even grenadiers threw grenades. With Xie Cheng's experience, it was clear that if it was the past, Basically, it was won in one go.

But it can't work now, because the troublemakers on the opposite side occupy the commanding heights...

Tianjingguan is the top of the mountain.

Because of the undulating mountains along this route, the road actually follows the ridgeline, and Tianjingguan is at the highest point on the ridgeline, and a pass city was built with stones.The commanding height inside is the top of the hill, but now it is full of rapid-fire guns, condescending to shoot continuously with shotguns, especially there is a cannon inside that is obviously larger than the field gun.That one fired more cannonballs, and with one shot, more than a dozen soldiers of the Shenji Battalion fell down.

"No wonder Yang Feng said that the bigger the gun, the better. Our field gun is a baby at best."

Yuan Yu beside him said.

Their field guns are smaller than this gun, and their range is a bit worse.

Therefore, being suppressed by the latter's shells, they can only use slugs to hit back outside the range of the latter's shotgun shells. Coincidentally, in order to cause damage to the defenders.

"What's the use of a cannon if it's not at Tianjingguan?"

Xie Cheng said.

Indeed, the key is not the cannon, but the location of the Tianjingguan. There are deep ditches on the left and right. It is meaningless to attack from the flanks. After all, soldiers cannot be expected to climb a steep hill and still have the strength to attack the towering city wall, and the commanding heights are closed. Surrounded by the city, the cannons were shooting condescendingly. If they wanted to charge, the Shenji Battalion had to hit the city wall hard, with the firepower of this cannon and a large number of rapid-fire guns.

"Lord Hou, I found out that it was the thousand-jin cannon that Yi Guoye cast for them. It was actually [-] catties, but it was not made of copper, it was made of iron. These tricksters didn't know where they got the pattern and method of making, and then Forged iron cannons. Not only Yiguoye, but all iron smelters in Shanxi are making this kind of thing. It is said that the inside is a steel chamber and the outside is iron, which is cheaper than our bronze field cannon."

A general came to report.

"Iron? No matter how good it is, it's iron. Our bronze cannons are all bombed. I don't believe that iron cannons are easier to explode. The ministries take turns to attack. You don't have to rush up, just let these troublemakers keep firing."

Xie Cheng sneered.

He is indeed cunning...

"boom!"

Only a quarter of an hour later, flames exploded from the explosion chamber on the top of the mountain, and the gunpowder barrel should have been detonated. The explosion of a large amount of gunpowder raised a black smoke column there, and the blasted bricks and stones turned into shells and fell in the black smoke.

And the unruly people on the city wall of Tianjingguan were in chaos.

"Attack, all at once!"

Xie Cheng roared.

The soldiers of the Shenji Battalion who had been waiting for a long time immediately shouted and started the general attack. They quickly set up the ladder and rushed to the city wall. fall down.Moreover, the grenadiers also rushed to the bottom of the city, and kept throwing small grenades on the city wall. Although the lethality was not enough, it disrupted the defense of the defenders.Soon the first soldier of the Heavy Armored Divine Machine Battalion boarded the city wall under the cover of volleys of guns and grenades. He knocked down a young man with a small hammer, and then roared at several young men who rushed towards him.

however……

Suddenly an arrow hit his face, and the guy fell straight out, and then fell under the city wall.

"Master Hou, their reinforcements have arrived. They are armored, and they are armored by the imperial court."

The observer on the hot air balloon shouted immediately.
