I Am the Grandson of the Second Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Earning 100 Million Taels at the Beginn

Chapter 186 A war caused by a cow.

"The last general Quguang, Qi Yuan, see Your Majesty, see His Highness Taisun."

As the enemy surrendered, Li Hu reluctantly ordered to stop shooting, control the enemy warship, and gather the enemy prisoners.

He just wanted to fight a naval battle to his heart's content, why couldn't he be satisfied, he was too aggrieved as the chief officer of the navy.

Alas, sometimes being too powerful is a worry.

After the danger was relieved, Qu Guang asked the soldiers to send the injured partner to the hospital ship, while he and Qi Yuan came to the flagship nervously.

The brother who picked them up had told them that the emperor was coming.

The two were chased by the enemy like this, lost two warships, and killed and injured so many brothers, it was a complete embarrassment to Daming.

And more importantly, the cause of the war is still on them.

With the emperor's violent temper, there is absolutely no good fruit for the two of them.

The old man sitting in the first place only nodded slightly, but did not reprimand the two generals.

After all, this is his grandson's subordinate, and he mainly focuses on watching the battle this time, so he will not choose to intervene in the matter of punishing his subordinates.

"What's going on? Didn't I ask you to station there first and build a temporary base for our large troops to come? Why did the fight start?"

Zhu Zhangui looked at the two with a cold face and asked.

The two lowered their heads in shame.

Without waiting for Diguang to speak, Qi Yuan said directly.

"The cause of this matter is all the fault of the minister alone. Please, Your Highness, don't blame General Qu Guang. It is the fault of the minister that implicated him!"

Seeing that Qi Yuan wants to bear all the charges alone, Qu Guang hastily spoke up.

"Your Highness, the order to start the war is given by the minister, and it has nothing to do with General Qi!"

"Your Highness, it's me. It's none of his business. It's all my fault. The ground war was caused by me first. General Qu used the artillery on the ship to support us in order not to let us suffer."

In order to bear the charge, the two argued loudly.

"Oh!"

Zhu Zhangui slapped the table hard, and the two who were arguing about the charges immediately shut up.

The old man glanced at Zhu Zhangui who was standing beside him, patting the table in front of him, his brows twitched, he reached out and pushed Zhu Zhangui's hand aside, and pulled the table aside.

This wooden table was made by him and his great-great-grandson when they were bored on the boat. It was very commemorative. He cared about it very much, and he was usually reluctant to pat it. How dare this kid make such a heavy hand.

The corner of Zhu Zhangui's mouth twitched, he glanced at the many generals who turned their heads to one side, and cast a speechless glance at the old man.

Then he glared angrily at the two people below.

"Let's talk about how the fight started first. I can decide whose fault it is."

In fact, Zhu Zhangui didn't care about the reason. He was angry that since the fight started, he must have the ability to win.

Zhu Zhangui is just like the officers in the army.

The two sides fight, and when they win the fight, they come back to eat and drink, and when they are full, they ask the reason for the fight.

If you lose, even if your side is reasonable, you won't have any good looks.

The two started a war with Ah Sanguo, even if they were at a loss, as long as they could win, Zhu Zhangui would protect them.

But the result in front of him is obviously a loss, and his side may still be the one that is wrong.

This made Zhu Zhangui a little angry.

If you don't have the skills, just hold back and do something stupid.

The matter I found, not only will outsiders beat you, but I will also punish you.

"Return to Your Highness, the matter is like this!"

Qi Yuan quickly explained the reason first.

After Qi Yuan disembarked that day, he started shopping in the local vegetable market.

Their plan was to buy some mutton and go back to satisfy their hunger. Later, when they were buying mutton, they asked a lot, is there any beef for sale?

It is illegal to kill cattle in Daming, but the beef is indeed delicious.

Thinking that these people look very similar to grassland people, there shouldn't be any problem with killing cattle. In addition, they are from other countries, even if they break the law, this foreign country can't control it.

So they moved their minds to buy a few cows and go back, so that everyone can satisfy their greed.

After they asked about the exit, the cattle seller was about to shake his head and refuse to explain the reason, when a luxuriously dressed nobleman said with a smile that he had cattle for sale, and the price was very cheap.

Qi Yuan heard that there were cattle for sale, talked with the other party, and learned that the other party had 10 cows, and they were all healthy and live cattle, and the asking price was only 200 taels of silver per head.

With such a cheap price, Qi Yuan was immediately tempted. After ordering a dozen sheep, he followed the other party to get the cattle.

The cow was indeed bought, and the luxuriously dressed nobleman did not lie to Qi Yuan and others.

However, the other party made a request, saying that there is a custom in their place that the slaughter of cattle must be at a busy street corner, and the sold cattle cannot leave the city alive.

Although Qi Yuan and the others were a little puzzled by such a strange statement, they didn't think too much about it. It is normal for a country to have a custom.

So they took the cow to the intersection where the sheep were sold, rented a few cars, slaughtered the cow on the spot, and then skinned and cut the meat.

Their act of killing the cow made the whole street quiet, and the pedestrians on the street looked at them in shock and anger.

In such a scene, no matter how stupid Qi Yuan is, he knows that he has been tricked.

The translator inquired with the sheep seller, but the sheep seller refused to say anything or explain, and kept urging them to leave quickly.

Knowing that there might be a problem, Qi Yuan didn't hesitate too much, and quickly asked the cart puller to bring the cart over, and was about to leave with the beef.

But the drivers of those rented cars refused their request, and told Qi Yuan angrily that Qi Yuan and the others had offended the gods, and the gods would not let Qi Yuan and others go, if they helped Qi Yuan, they would also implicated by the gods.

Qi Yuan was dumbfounded, didn't I just kill a cow?Although it is illegal to kill cattle in our Ming Dynasty, it is not enough to offend even God.

The coachman was unwilling to pull. Although Qi Yuan was angry, he did not force him. He asked the accompanying soldiers to lead the sheep and put the beef on his own cart.

But they wanted to leave, but the common people on the street didn't want to. They surrounded them one after another, shouting angrily, wanting to hand them over to some kind of temple for disposal.

And when the atmosphere between the two parties was tense and stalemate, the noble young man who sold the cow stood up.

He said to Qi Yuan that what Qi Yuan killed was the zebu, which was the holy beast of the Asan Kingdom, and it had aroused the wrath of the gods. If Qi Yuan and the others were not dealt with, the gods would punish all the people of the Asan tribe.

The noble son told Qi Yuan that it was actually very simple to get away, as long as he was given 10 taels of silver, he could escort Qi Yuan and others to leave.

Otherwise, Qi Yuan and the others will be sent to God to be punished.

Qi Yuan became angry instantly, he understood that they were cheated.

This aristocrat must have seen their generosity and because they were foreigners, so he thought of taking advantage of his own status to cheat Qi Yuan and others.

The sheep seller was hesitant to speak just now, and he refused to tell them the reason because he was worried that this noble son would implicate him.

How could Qi Yuan agree to give the other party 10 taels.

Not to mention whether there is so much money, even if there is, Qi Yuan will not give the other party a penny.

Seeing that Qi Yuan and others didn't want to pay, the noble young master asked his subordinates to fan the flames among the crowd besieging Qi Yuan and others.

The instigated Asan people pointed at Qi Yuan and others, cursed and threw stones at Qi Yuan and others.

The opponent had a large number of people, so Qi Yuan could only choose to restrain himself, telling the soldiers not to care about meat, and rush out first.

But as soon as they planned to retreat, they were discovered by that noble son.

The noble young man yelled, and several short knives flew out from the crowd, stabbing towards Qi Yuan and his party.

The experienced soldiers on the battlefield easily dodged.

But the translation was just an ordinary scholar, whose action response ability was not as good as that of a soldier. He was stabbed in the chest by a short knife and died on the spot.

The people under his command were killed face to face, Qi Yuan finally couldn't bear it anymore, he drew his gun and killed that noble son without saying a word.

Qi Yuan fired the shot happily, but he didn't know that this noble son was the son of the governor of Madras, and he was also the only only son.

Seeing that the young master was also killed, the servants of the young master rushed up angrily and fought for their lives with Qi Yuan and the others.

The racial system in the Three Kingdoms is very serious. If the master is killed and the servants are still alive, they will be brutally killed and buried with the master.

If there is no revenge for the master, then their family members will also suffer the same fate.

In order not to implicate their family members, they risked their lives to kill the enemy.

The nobleman's servant moved forward, and the people of the Asan Kingdom who blocked Qi Yuan and the others also rushed forward.

The scuffle broke out instantly.

Qi Yuan went out to buy things, in order not to cause misunderstanding, he only brought a dozen soldiers with him.

There are at least a thousand of the Asan people surrounding them.

Although Qi Yuan and the others have rich combat experience, a good tiger can't hold back a pack of wolves, and it's hard to beat four hands with two fists.

In the end, more than a dozen soldiers under Qi Yuan risked their lives to protect Qi Yuan and rushed out.

Then Qi Yuan fled back to the ship alone, and a series of conflicts broke out later.

After listening to Qi Yuan's narration, Zhu Zhangui's face turned dark and ugly.

The whole thing started with the killing of a few cows.

Zhu Zhangui knew that Ah Sans worshiped cattle very much.

It seems that the ancient Indians were migrated by the Aryans, and Hinduism was at its peak.

That's why the ahsan worshiped the cow very much. In the previous life, Zhu Zhangui even heard that the ahsan regarded cow urine and cow dung as sacred objects, and even married a cow, which was a very honorable thing.

When the two were dispatched, Zhu Zhangui forgot about this, and did not explain that this matter needs to be paid attention to.

But I didn't expect the problem to lie in this.

Looking at the two men who lowered their heads to lead the crime, Zhu Zhangui was silent for a while.

"Although it happened for a reason, it was also caused by the mistakes of the two of you."

"If I don't punish you, I will feel sorry for those brothers who died in battle."

Zhu Zhangui snorted coldly, "Come on, take it down!"

Several guards stepped forward and controlled the two of them.

Zhu Zhangui looked at the two and shouted coldly.

"Qi Yuan refracted the light, because of the mistake of the two of you, countless brothers died for it, but considering the achievements of the two of you in the past, I decided to give you a lighter punishment."

"The two of them will be sentenced to 50 rods, removed from all positions, and reduced to ordinary soldiers and sailors!"

"You two can accept the sentence!"

"The crime will be punished!"

How can the two of them have any dissatisfaction, and they are already very grateful if they can save their lives.

They knew in their hearts that if it wasn't for the fact that the two of them had been with Zhu Zhangui for so many years, Zhu Zhangui was nostalgic for the past, and this incident, because he didn't understand the customs and was tricked, otherwise the two of them would never have escaped the stabbing in the neck .

"Pull it down, hit!"

Zhu Zhangui let out a low shout, and the guards stripped off the armor on the two of them, dragged them aside and started beating them with their sticks.

The sound of bang bang bang, listening to the other generals having a toothache.

But the two of them were tough enough. Before they passed out, they were silent and carried it down abruptly.

"Your Highness, the execution is over!"

Hu Yu, who was in charge of the prison sentence, came to report after confirming the beating.

Zhu Zhangui glanced at the whole back that was bloody and bloody, and the two who had fainted waved their hands.

"Take it down for treatment!"

After the two were carried away, Zhu Zhangui looked at the surrendered Asan warship, saw that the soldiers were still searching for the prisoners, and it would take a while, so he said to the generals of the surrounding ships: "There is something wrong. Change, let's go to the conference room for a meeting!"

A group of people went to the conference room in a mighty manner, the old man, Zhang Fu who was still a little seasick, and Xia Yuanji and Yang Pu who rushed over from other boats also walked in.

When he came to the meeting room, the old man had no intention of participating. He hugged the little guy who ran over, and sat down at the side, drinking tea and preparing to listen.

He wanted to see how his grandson planned to fight this war.

He's old now and can't take care of anything.

The children are all grown up, if he manages too much, it is easy for the children to become dependent.

Once he leaves one day, the child will suffer a loss if he has no experience in this area.

Now that he is still alive, let the children below do things independently, and he will watch from the side. If there is any mistake, he will point out and correct it, so that the children can accumulate more experience.

After Hu Yu hung up the map provided by Qu Guang and others, Zhu Zhangui held a baton, looked at all the generals and said solemnly.

"Now that the two-sided war has begun, our plans are about to change."

Holding a baton in his hand, Zhu Zhangui pointed to the location of the large island in the southeastern region of the Three Kingdoms on the map behind him.

"It is not a matter of a day or two to take down the Three Kingdoms. We need a garrison and a temporary supply camp."

"Here is an independent island land, which is somewhat similar to our Little Liuqiu Island."

"It is surrounded by sea on all sides, so we can maximize our naval advantages. Using this as our base, we can launch attacks from anywhere."

"We must take this place!"

"Now I order!"

"Whoa!"

All the generals stood up and stood at attention, even Zhang Fu stood up.

The old man has already explained that once the war starts, all military personnel including him, Zhu Zhangui and Li Hai can be transferred at will.

Zhu Zhangui pointed to Jaffna's location, "Han Fei, Ma Xun!"

"To!"

A Navy and a Marine Corps officer responded loudly.

"The two of you lead the troops to launch an attack on this place. After taking this place, build a pier to guard against the other side!"

"As ordered!"

"Sun Xi, Zhang Xian!"

Li Hu's lieutenant general and Zhang Xian raised their chests and responded loudly.

Zhu Zhangui looked at the two, pointed to the location of Colombo and said, "I'll send you two 6 warships with 5000 troops and take this place within 5 days. Are you confident?"

The two looked at each other and said loudly.

"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"

Zhu Zhangui nodded in satisfaction, slipped the baton in his hand, and praised Madras.

"Li Hu!"

"The end is here!"

Li Hu, who stood in the first position in the navy, responded loudly.

Zhu Zhangui looked at Li Hu with a cold expression and said: "Our brother can't die in vain. You take 10 warships and go here and bombard me with all the people on the coastline."

"Your Highness, please think twice!"

Before Li Hu responded, Yang Pu, who was beside the old man, stood up frowning.

Zhu Zhangui and the generals turned to look at him with indifferent expressions.

Yang Pu, who was stared at by so many warriors, had a layer of cold sweat on his forehead.

For the first time, he realized that the military generals had such a fierce murderous aura, why didn't they feel this murderous aura when they met those generals when they were in court.

Zhu Zhangui looked at Yang Pu with a cold expression.

"Scholar Yang, do you have any objections?"

Zhu Zhangui's question made Yang Pu feel pressured.

He has experienced this feeling more than once.

It's just that most of them were faced with the old man and Zhu Yuanzhang back then, but he had never experienced it with the prince and the king of Han.

Unexpectedly, His Royal Highness Taisun, who was young, was no weaker than the emperor and Emperor Hongwu.

"His Royal Highness, he has no objection, but he was a little seasick and dizzy, so he was talking nonsense."

Before Yang Pu could answer, Xia Yuanji who was at the side quickly pulled Yang Pu aside and explained with a smile.

Zhu Zhangui glanced at Yang Pu, who was hesitating to speak, and at the old man, seeing him playing with the little guy, as if he hadn't heard anything.

Then he turned around and asked Li Hu.

"Do you understand the mission?"

Li Hu raised his hand in salute.

"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"

in the corner.

Xia Yuanji pulled Yang Pu to the side, glanced at Zhu Zhangui who continued to assign combat missions, and said to Yang Pu angrily.

"Did you get confused by eating seafood these days? His Majesty didn't say a word. What nonsense are you talking about?"

Yang Pu frowned.

"His Majesty Taisun's heart to kill is too strong. During the Northern Expedition last year, so many slaughtered. If His Majesty hadn't told me to wait and suppress, the Yushitai below would have been turned upside down."

"If you kill them in the north, you will kill them. There is a grassland, and it doesn't mean much to us. It's okay to kill and frighten those grassland barbarians."

"But this time we are in a war of conquest, and we want to take this land into national ownership. If there are too many killings, it will be difficult to rule in the future!"

Xia Yuanji shook his head speechlessly, and pointed to Yang Pu.

"You, what do you want me to say about you? You can think of this. Could it be that your majesty and grandson couldn't think of it?"

Yang Pu opened his mouth.

Xia Yuanji continued: "Your Majesty and the grandson both know, but why do you still do this?"

"This is a foreign country, our language and customs are different."

"Benevolence, righteousness, and benevolent government also need to be divided into people. The people here are relative to our beliefs. If you want to subdue them, you must first subdue them."

"It's like training a dog. Just giving benefits can only feed white-eyed wolves, and using some tricks can train a loyal and honest watchdog!"

After he finished speaking, he patted Yang Pu on the shoulder, "You, you have read too many sage books, you don't understand this conquest, and neither do I."

"Let's just manage the rest of the matter honestly and do our own job well. Let's leave the war to His Majesty and His Royal Highness Taisun!"
