"Traitor! Do you think you can do whatever you want just because you have held His Majesty hostage?!"
Empress Dowager Li's father, Duke of the State and Junior Minister of Dali, Li Wei, said in a stern voice. However, while he was saying this, he was protecting his son who was at the back of the court and ran away.
call out! ! !
A moon gun instantly pierced through the heads of the ministers who tried to escape. As their bodies fell into the dust of the earth, the devil who decided the life and death of all of them slowly said:
"It's too easy to kill you all here. What will happen if the core of a country is slaughtered so easily by me? Maybe it won't be like this."
"But I'm not here just to kill. In other words, what's the point of just killing you cysts? Since you think I'm not worthy of being the national teacher, then I'll give you this opportunity."
With a wicked smile, Xia Lang stood up and said with a smile
"I'll give you twelve hours to gather the imperial guards near Shuntian Prefecture. Jinwu Guards, Yulin Guards, Yanshan Guards... I don't care whether you are from the Twelve Guards or the Five Military Commandery, I'm too lazy to figure it out, just come to me!!!"
"I will be waiting for you at the gate of the Forbidden City. Bring your supporters and those stinking warriors you look down upon, and try to take off my head!"
Xia Lang pointed at his neck, slowly stroked it, and laughed wildly.
"I have thought of many ways to let you know that I am an immortal, but I think it is too troublesome, too troublesome! It is better to just kill you, killing you is enough!!!"
"Let me break your spine, crush your arrogance, and trample your heads. Come on, come on!!!"
"Time starts now!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xia Lang raised his hand and fired two rounds of the moon gun, killing two ministers in the court meeting. This was like a signal, and as Xia Lang raised his hand again, these ministers in the morning court immediately screamed and fled.
Looking at their humble appearance, Xia Lang laughed with great joy! After the crowd dispersed, only a few people were left standing in the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
"Little Emperor, it seems that not all of your subjects are pure cowards."
Xia Lang looked at Wanli, and the little emperor was already pale and trembling. He smiled and patted Wanli on the shoulder, then jumped out.
As he said, today - to prove the truth with killing!!!
Volume 24: Xia Lang's Various Time Travels: Chapter 23 . [Xiaoao] Kill, kill, kill! Kill through the Imperial Guards!
During the Ming Dynasty, there were a total of 26 imperial guards guarding the periphery of Shuntian Prefecture, which were called the "Beijing Camp" in the Ming Dynasty, namely the famous Five Army Camp, Three Thousand Camp and Shenji Camp, commonly known as the "Three Major Camps".
Among them, the Five Military Camps were composed of elite troops drawn from provinces across the country, with infantry and cavalry as the central army, left and right wings, and left and right patrols, so they were called "Five Military Camps".
In addition to the garrisons in Beijing, the Ming Dynasty dispatched 16 soldiers from Zhongdu, Shandong, Henan, and Daning every year to take turns to the capital to receive training in the Five Military Camps, which can be regarded as the main base for military training across the country.
As for the Three Thousand Battalion, although this unit is called this name, its number of people is far more than three thousand. The reason for this name is that it was initially composed of surrendered Mongolian troops, and the number of people was indeed about 3000 cavalry. Later, after expansion, the number of people could reach up to .
During the Jiajing period, the emperor renamed it Shenshuying. Under normal circumstances, it did not go on expeditions. It was divided into five divisions, each in charge of the emperor's flags, chariots and uniforms, weapons, drums, imperial treasures, etc. It was an orthodox imperial guard.
The last one is the Shenjiying, which is the famous firearms unit of the Ming Dynasty. It is not only the elite of the Ming Dynasty, but also the most technologically advanced army in the country. Its strength should not be underestimated.
The combat effectiveness of the Ming army during the Wanli reign did not decline as quickly as it would a few decades later. Even though the three major expeditions of Wanli were wars of little benefit and not very pleasant to fight, the armaments and strength of the Ming army were not as bad as those during the Chongzhen reign.
But to put it bluntly, that's it.
After all, the problem of the Ming Dynasty's army's combat effectiveness was a legacy from the time of Zhu Yuanzhang. The Wei Suo system implemented by this autocratic beggar emperor who always believed that he could solve all problems for future generations became the source of almost all the military problems of the Ming Dynasty later.
It's not that the Wei-suo system was absolutely rubbish, it's just that it was only suitable for the stage when Zhu Yuanzhang was conquering the world. But this guy didn't allow his descendants to change his own rules, so that the Wei-suo system, a hereditary system in the army, made it almost impossible for the lower-level soldiers to move up, and it also led to the fact that everyone from eunuchs to civil officials, from military generals to nobles took turns to lie on these able-bodied men and drink their blood.
The above information all comes from the free information provided by Haihu Xialang——
Xia Lang (3): So you plan to kill all guards under Wanli at once?
Xia Lang (2): I would like to do that, but it is a bit difficult (laughs). Although it takes ten days to kill pigs, and less than half a day to kill people, I am only one person after all. I guess they will flee after I kill them once.
Xia Lang (3): Wow, I still don’t quite understand what you’re thinking. Do you want to overthrow the Ming Dynasty right now?
Faced with his own questions, Xia Lang thought for a moment, shrugged and typed:
"Why? I'm also looking for the answer to this question."
To be honest, the situation has evolved to this point, and Sharan himself is not sure how the future will develop.
Because he was unhappy with what he saw along the way, he wanted to kill the emperor of the Zhu family because he was unhappy. Because he found that killing the entire palace and the ministers at the court was too easy and not satisfying, so...
Well, if we have to look at it from this perspective, it seems like he is a natural born killer.
We can only say that this is the reason but it is not absolute. Perhaps for Xia Lang, he chose to do so just to further gain the so-called power.
He relies on his invincible absolute power, and as such he can only gain his power by showing off violence.
But what about after he gains power? He actually doesn't have much confidence or plans on how to make the world a better place on his own.
Woo... Anyway, just do it first! Before you decide whether you can do something successfully, make sure you can do it first!
If it really doesn't work, just kill them all after getting the corresponding power - clearing out those who are unproductive and occupy too many resources in society will always make the burden of operation borne by the bottom of society lighter.
Killing is indeed one of the solutions most of the time.
"Well, it seems that the time for small talk is over, it's time to get down to business."
Xia Lang closed the chat group and fell from the city wall on top of the palace gate. What appeared in front of him was an army that had blocked all the roads around the Forbidden City!
There was a distant Shenjiying, equipped with various Western firearms, who had already calibrated Xia Lang. The gunpowder was loaded and ready to fire, and they only needed to ignite the fuse to fire.
In addition, there are various weapons such as the Eight-Ox Crossbow that are aimed at heavy-armored units. Furthermore, these are the soldiers of the Twenty-Six Guards, all equipped with heavy armor, heavy shields and broadswords, standing at the front!
No cavalry was seen, probably because the streets of Shuntian Prefecture were not suitable for cavalry charges.
"You evil thief, my Ming soldiers have arrived! If you don't stop and surrender, you can still be killed. If you resist to the end, you will be in a dilemma of life and death in Zhaoyu!!!"
Leading the 1500 "Tianwu Generals" was the Jinyiwei Commander Liu Shouyou. Wearing a Feiyu robe and an embroidered spring sword, he reined in his horse and shouted angrily at Xia Lang in front of the palace gate:
"Jinyiwei? I'm so scared." Xia Lang looked at these secret agencies of the Ming Emperor jokingly, with a look of pleasure and cruelty flashing in his eyes.
"You speak as if you can tolerate what I do. Never mind. I heard that there are many experts in your Jinyiwei. Don't let me down."
After saying that, he raised his fingers, but the difference this time was that he raised both hands - ten fingers!
Moon Gun——Ten Bursts!!!
Ten moon-white beams of internal energy instantly shot out from his ten fingers, instantly crossing a distance of hundreds of meters and easily piercing through the necks of ten Jinyiwei!
He deliberately did not kill Liu Shouyou, as if it was a cat playing with mouse, or perhaps he wanted to see what outstanding performance this spy chief could achieve.
Ten people were killed in a flash. Liu Shouyou, who was at the front, turned pale! He immediately rolled off his horse and hid behind the heavy encirclement, roaring and ordering:
"Open fire! Quick, kill this lunatic!!!"
With a series of popping sounds, superimposed with the sound of arrows breaking through the air! A large number of projectiles, along with arrows that made tearing sounds in the air, came towards Xia Lang!
Xia Lang's response was simply to cover the three feet in front of his body with his internal force.
But just like that, countless bullets and arrows were directly shaken away by the internal force that solidified into a real state. Xia Lang walked forward slowly, just like strolling in the garden after dinner.
"Sometimes I really don't understand, in a world with martial arts, why can the power of the Central Dynasty still be controlled by you good-for-nothings like you?"
Xia Lang walked forward slowly, chatting casually, and his figure was heard by all the soldiers surrounding him.
"Then let's forget about Zhang Wuji, Zhu Yuanzhang's boss. It's understandable that a man like him doesn't pursue power. But when there are masters, is there really any point for your army of mortals?"
"Like Guo Jing from the previous dynasty, with such martial arts and archery skills, why would he defend a broken city to the death? He would just go out and fight guerrilla warfare all day long. Not to mention assassinating the emperor, if he shot and killed fifty Mongolian soldiers a day, wouldn't their morale be broken in a few years?"
"And you civil officials and military generals are even worse. If you don't have any martial arts skills, those masters can kill you in just one night - how can you maintain such power in the face of a group of little supermen?"
"Hurry up, hurry up!!!"
Seeing that bullets and arrows had no effect on this monster, the anxious Liu Shouyou yelled at the Jinyiwei master next to him, and then seven Jinyiwei masters jumped into the air and killed Xia Lang!
The seven men attacked from seven different directions, using palms, fists, fingers, swords, spears and knives. The remaining one tried to capture and lock Xia Lang.
"Oh? Is this what you rely on? The so-called 'experts' kept by the imperial court?"
Xia Lang looked at the seven masters of the Jinyiwei and said with a joking smile
"Tsk tsk tsk, that's right. Anyway, the martial arts world at this point in time is full of a bunch of losers and drunkards. It makes sense that you can really seize power."
hum! ! !
These seven people attacked together, which was extremely terrifying. They had to stay within three feet of Xia Lang!!!
They felt in disbelief the Qi wall that was as solid as reality and as strong as tempered steel. No matter what skills they used, they could not break it!
"How, how is it possible that such a martial art exists!!!"
The Jinyiwei who tried to hold Xia Lang in a bear hug said in disbelief, everything before their eyes, such martial arts undoubtedly overturned their cognition! !
Of course, it also overturned the perception that Liu Shouyou was such an official and noble!
Of course they knew martial arts, and they also despised the existence of martial arts. These meat-eaters always had their arrogance, thinking that it was better to study the books of sages than to practice low-level martial arts.
Martial arts? What is the use of martial arts? Can a martial arts master defeat their army? Can he defeat their wealth?
What Xia Lang said was right. Throughout the dynasties, at least since the Northern Song Dynasty, the courts of the Central Plains dynasties in this world have lacked the beatings from martial arts masters.
The truly capable masters in the Central Plains either don't care about things or stay away from the Central Plains. No truly capable master would ever think of attacking the imperial court and teach these bastards a lesson one by one!
Perhaps this is the characteristic of Jin Yong's martial arts world. There has never been a true master who can directly control those in power by relying on personal force, and then overturn the government and gain power by force!
"Forget it. If they are all this kind of people, I don't want to waste my time on them anymore."
Xia Lang sighed and slowly raised his hands. It was this pair of crystal white jade-like hands that gave these seven masters great fear!
The next moment, a deep blue vortex surged from Xia Lang's Dantian! Then, the seven Jinyiwei masters screamed miserably, and their internal strength, flesh and blood, and life were sucked away completely in an instant!
Six are slightly lower than Tian Boguang, and one is on par with Tian Boguang, which can be regarded as a small dessert.
"I'm tired of playing."
Xia Lang smiled at Liu Shouyou, who was pale in the crowd, and then spread his hands flat.
"I will send you on your way now."
Dark Dream Fairy Sword!!!
His inner strength was revealed, illusions were born, and in an instant Xia Lang transformed into dozens of sky-blue dark dream immortal bodies, and charged straight into the army!!!
The shield soldiers holding large shields and long swords were almost defeated at the first touch. The sword blade transformed by the internal force of the Dark Dream Immortal Body easily tore open the inferior iron shields and cut their throats!
What’s even more terrifying is that these dark dream immortals can also use Xia Lang’s martial arts!
The continuous firing of the moon gun was like a barrage of sniper bullets in the crowd. Even a full set of armor could not stop the internal force beam that could easily penetrate rocks more than ten meters thick.
The terrifying moon was released forward, and the team of twenty people was immediately pulled by a strong suction force. All the weapons in their hands flew out of their hands, and then they were immediately turned into hedgehogs.
And when Liangliang's moves are about to use up all the internal energy of the Dark Dream Immortal Body, they will, under Xia Lang's control, transform all their internal energy into one move -
The moon collapses!!!
The surging and exploding internal force triggered an effect like that of a high explosive, easily creating pieces of explosions in the crowd! In just a dozen breaths, Xia Lang killed hundreds of the imperial guards of the capital!!!
"This demon has limited internal energy. Use up all his internal energy!!!"
Among the Jinyiwei, it is unknown which expert made a constructive suggestion, and Xia Lang, who was strolling in the garden, saw him at a glance, smiled and stretched out his hand to gently grab him.
Yue Yin easily caught him from the crowd and brought him to Xia Lang's hands. He looked at this young Jinyiwei who seemed to be in his twenties. After the latter struggled frantically and saw that he had no way to escape, he immediately shouted
"Monster! The twenty-six guards of the capital have surrounded Shuntian Prefecture, and you are dead!!!"
"Hmm... Are you right? Even if it was me, I wouldn't have enough internal energy to kill tens of millions of people one by one."
Xia Lang made a thoughtful expression, then laughed and sucked him dry.
"But the question is, aren't you all just blood bags to me?"
"Want to compete? Should all your people die first? Or should I eat you until I get tired of you?"
Volume 25: Xia Lang’s various time travels: Chapter 24 . [Xiaoao] Defeat the entire fucking Ming army by himself!
Looking at the battles between martial arts masters and armies, the reason why it is almost impossible for them to win is nothing more than a simple problem of attrition.
Even for the most top-notch martial arts masters, their internal energy reserves are still limited. It is rare to find a master who can fight his way out of a huge army, let alone confront a large army head-on.
Xiao Feng in Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils once single-handedly killed a large army and helped Yelu Hongji put down the rebellion of the King of Chu. But there are indeed few who can do what he did.
This is because Xiao Feng is one of the rare "traffic monsters" created by Jin Yong. It seems that this guy has never run out of internal energy when fighting with others.
But seriously, when you have a spear that can penetrate everything, a shield that can withstand all mortal weapons, and the ability to appear and disappear at will - do you really need to go head-to-head with an army?
As Xia Lang said, wouldn't it be enough to sneak into those mansions, the imperial palace and the harem, and then just behead them?
There are always people who, because they live in a safe modern age, subconsciously apply the modern government's control over society to the ancient society - please, even in normal ancient times without martial arts, we don't see how much control the government and the court had over society.
In ancient times, even rebellion on the outskirts of the capital was not uncommon. Do you expect these so-called Jinyiwei and Liushenmen to manage every corner of society as thoroughly as the peak KGB?
With this ability, can you still let Li Zicheng overthrow you?
