eldest son of Ming dynasty

Chapter 542
"King Qing, you don't have to be afraid. Emperor Taizu gave birth to 26 sons. You and I are from the same branch, and I am your elder. No matter what, I will not harm you."

In the Anhua Prince's Mansion in the town of Ningxia, Lord Qing was taken away. As for his servants in the Prince Qing's Mansion, those who were willing to say "Long Live" were kept, and those who were unwilling had already been killed. Not only Prince Qing's Mansion, but also in the town so.

King Qing was used to fine clothes and good food, and he was timid, so he admitted it without much resistance, so King Anhua was willing to spare his life.

Speaking of which, since King Qing inherited the title from the eldest son, and King Anhua is the fourth son, so when it comes to the sect, it is still Prince Qing.

King Anhua spared his life this time, and there was also a sense of pride in showing off in front of him.

The cowardly King Qing could only smirk tremblingly, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your forgiveness, and I kowtow to you, Your Majesty."

"Hahaha." King Anhua was so happy that he couldn't control himself.

He is such a capable person, he does the work of rebellion and murder, but his mind is still limited to the gains and losses of one family.At this time, I still have the mind to show off these things.

Mainly in the town right now, the main officials of the Ming court were killed, and the rest of the common people had to save their lives, and Meng Bin took care of everything big and small.

Outside the city, he has also selected generals and counselors to guard the north ferry of Lingzhou.

As for the proclamation drafted on the night of the incident, they were going to spread it to all the border towns, but this kind of thing always takes time, and there is no rush.

If there is really any other thoughts, it is that there is one person missing in the palace.

Not long after, when Meng Bin came to report the incident, King Anhua still did not forget to ask, "You can do other things. There is only one thing, hasn't Yang Shu found it yet?"

There is a little more power between the words.

In fact, it was to intimidate his own people, and it was probably some kind of gesture he deliberately put on after he proclaimed himself emperor.And people like Meng Bin will play a role that suits him somewhat.

"Your Majesty, forgive me. I have already sent people to look for him. Normally, he is familiar with many people in the palace. I have already sent people to question him. Since yesterday morning, no one has seen him."

This incident made King Anhua feel a little uncomfortable.

Yang Shu has some skills in his hands and feet, and is very clever, so he still cares.

Most importantly, why did this person suddenly disappear?If it's just that you don't want to follow him to rebel, that's okay, but if it's for some other reason...

In fact, King Anhua was very angry. People around him betrayed him at this time, which made him look stupid and shameless.

"emperor……"

"I see." King Anhua waved his hand with some displeasure.

Prince Qing on the side listened to their conversation, and he was terrified. How could there be two emperors in the world, and the one who rebelled was still in front of him. It was really bad luck. The hot weather made him sweat non-stop.

Although he didn't know much about it, he had heard about the power of Emperor Zhengde in the past few years, and it couldn't be a lie that he beat the Tatars away.

Once the imperial army arrives, what will happen.

Prince Qing's mind is now full of matters concerning the imperial court's army. As the saying goes, he is panicking about what to fear.

A panicked general rushed in from outside the hall. Regardless of the obstruction, he started shouting from a distance,
"Your Majesty! It's not good! The imperial army is approaching the town!"

"The imperial army?!" King Qing stood up suddenly, his upper and lower lips began to tremble, "Emperor... Your Majesty, look, what can I do with this?!"

In fact, King Anhua was also surprised, but King Qing next to him was really rude, as if he had been bitten by a snake on the ass, and the bullet jumped up, which made him dissatisfied, "Why panic?! I am here."

Then he glanced at Meng Bin, and Meng Bin hurriedly explained, "It should have just arrived, and I haven't received the news before."

"Where are these soldiers and horses?"

The panicked general said: "It looks like a soldier from Shuofang Town."

Shuofang Town? !

The faces of King Anhua and Meng Bin suddenly became ugly.

"Absolutely impossible!" King Anhua himself denied first, "Shuofang Town is hundreds of miles away from here, could they have flown from the sky?!"

Meng Bin was still clear-headed, "How many people are there?"

"Eight hundred cavalry!"

"Good time! Your Majesty! The enemy only has [-] cavalry, and I think it's time to go out of the city to fight!"

"Why?"

"The emperor has just won the town, and he is using a big victory to calm people's hearts. I said something that the emperor doesn't like to hear. Many people in the city still miss the little emperor in the capital. If the emperor just sticks to the city, it is inevitable that the enemy's traitors will sneak in. , bewitching people’s hearts, stirring up chaos!”

The normal logic of rebellion should be like this.This is related to people's hearts, people's hearts are grass on the fence, whichever way the wind blows, it will fall.At this time, of course, we must get a good start.

Therefore, Meng Bin's statement is also easy to convince King Anhua, so it is correct.

If it is said that 800 people dare not fight.That's not a problem with Meng Bin's decision-making, it's that the strength itself is not enough.

King Anhua himself was ignorant, he only heard the number of 800, and immediately responded, "Okay! There are only [-] people, Zhang Meng, I will send you to lead a thousand warriors to defeat the invading enemy!"

Zhang Meng was taken aback after hearing this, me?
Originally, he just came to report the military situation.

Meng Bin almost cursed, "Your Majesty! The defeat of the first battle is related to the stability of people's hearts. The so-called lion fights the rabbit with all his strength, and I think that three thousand soldiers from the palace should be sent to fight!"

Zhang Meng felt a little more at ease when he heard these words, as if they were spoken by someone.

King Anhua made sense when he thought about it, "Meng Aiqing is really my son's wife. Good! Zhang Meng, I will hand over all the troops still in the city to you. You must work hard and fight a big victory!"

"Yes! The final general will obey the order!"

……

……

In fact, outside the city, Qiu Yue led [-] warriors to Ningxia town and was still burning their brains.

After all, in order to defend against the Tartars, the Ming army seems to have built the fortifications of these node cities in place. At least things like tripping posts will still cause headaches for the cavalry.

After guarding for a long time, I didn't expect to guard myself.This is also absolutely unexpected.

But even so, there are ways.

Qiu Yue had no brains to use the lives of his soldiers to attack the city. In the end, he only had [-] men, and he couldn't fill much.

He thought, now Anhua Wang has just rebelled, and it seems that he has captured the towns and cities, but it is not known how many of them were coerced by him.

The hearts of the people are uneasy, the army is uneasy, and its main force has already left the city, and there are not many remaining.

In this case, as long as they can find internal support and start an incident at the same time, it will basically be a chaotic situation.Just like an old building, it will become unstable after a few shakes.

Of course, this inner response is not easy to find...

While thinking hard, it belongs to the future report, "General! The rebels are out of the city!"

"What?" Qiu Yue was taken aback.

"Uh, the scouts ahead reported that the rebels have left the city, and the number is about [-]."

Qiu Yue was a little messy for a while, maybe he used some trick?

"General, what shall we do?"

"Go and kill him for a while. But be careful, if the situation changes, don't indulge in fighting, and withdraw immediately! You should remember how the Tatars fought in the past, right?"

"of course I remember!"

"More! Remember to shout that the ferry has been lost during the battle, surrender and not kill."

The general was still surprised, "The general got the news? The rebel army failed to attack the ferry?"

"Stupid! Why bother so much, let the brothers shout like that anyway. Find a few who can speak Ningxia dialect and have a loud voice, and shout loudly. The rebels are not strong-willed. As long as they show a slight defeat, most of them will let go. Save your weapon!"

As for how the Tatars fought, when the elite cavalry fought with the infantry, they rushed at high speed, focusing on cavalry and shooting, and retreated if they couldn't win. Anyway, these people couldn't catch up.

Qiu Yue was more ruthless, and it was because of this that he was appreciated by Yang Yiqing at the beginning and promoted to a guerrilla general.

The military order was issued, all the soldiers got on their horses, and Qiu Yue also put on his armor. He was riding a batch of translucent black horses. The muscles of his legs could be seen with the naked eye, which was very powerful and beautiful.

"The Ming army will surely win!" Qiu Yue lifted a long knife above his head, and the sunlight shone on it, reflecting a dazzling light.

"The Ming army must win! The Ming army must win!"

Subsequently, the 800 people were divided into three teams and quickly attacked under the leadership of the general.This highland is about two miles away from the town. The horses run at high speed, and it takes only a few dozen breaths to see the enemy.

But for Zhang Meng and the soldiers and horses leaving the city, they could hear the sound of rumbling horseshoes earlier, and then saw a cloud of yellow sand and dust flying up.And then there is...

"Kill!!!!"

All eyes are full of soldiers in armor, and the military flag with the word "Shuofang" fluttering high.

Zhang Meng's heart tightened, Shuofang Town, this is the soldiers and horses of Shuofang Town!
"All officers and men obey orders! Follow this general to take over and kill the enemy! Kill one person, and reward you with 50 taels of silver!"

The price is high, and the soldiers all know that King Anhua copied the palace and the treasury of the general army, so there must be money.

So the archers all entered the battle state.

"Release the arrow! Release the arrow!"

The sprinting speed of the cavalry is very fast, and the arrows shot by one or two hundred archers will not cause much damage to the fast-moving cavalry, and everyone is wearing armor.

Besides, the cavalry in Shuofang Town are practicing riding and archery skills every day.

Qiu Yue always felt that the enemy might be deceitful, otherwise he couldn't use such a stupid method, so instead of rushing into the enemy's formation like Han Shierang did, he divided his troops into three groups and circled around from the left, middle and right. , while maintaining a certain distance,
Archery!

The sound of rumbling horseshoes was like an earthquake,
call out!Whoosh! !
Zhang Meng originally wanted to order his generals to charge to meet the enemy, but he didn't expect Shuofang's army to separate. When he came back to his senses, he could hear the sound of arrows piercing through the air.

"what!!"

This is the real combat method of the cavalry. If you don't touch you, you hit me. I am fast, and aiming is useless. It can only rely on luck.But troops who are good at riding and shooting usually need to practice.

If you want to chase but can't catch up, run but can't run away, it's equivalent to hanging up to play.

Beside Zhang Meng, the soldiers in the formation started to fall to the ground with arrows, and even he himself was hiding among the soldiers holding shields. They were supposed to have the upper hand, but they turned out to be like toys.

Qiu Yue's fighting spirit became more and more hearty, but he was still cautious, and did not order the troops to charge, but acted according to the plan.

"The ferry is lost, surrender without killing!!"

Such shouts suddenly sounded, and became louder and louder. Many people even had a confused look on their faces. They were rebelling!
Qiu Yue observed for a long time, and ordered with his subordinates: "Even if the Ningxia soldiers pretend to be defeated, it is absolutely impossible to act so realistically. Order, everyone rushes to kill the rebels! And wait for the opportunity to take down the town of Ningxia!"

"Yes!"

In fact, the arrival of the imperial army itself has already made the soldiers feel terrified. If the soldiers and horses on the way out of the city are still defeated, it is absolutely impossible for them to fight against the imperial court.

It's a kind of despair.

……

……

"Your Majesty!" The battle ahead is unfavorable, panic is spreading faster than the virus, and there is already some chaos in the palace, "Your Majesty! The army is about to attack the city!"

"Impossible!!" King Anhua roared a little arrogantly, "I have three thousand soldiers!"

"It's the real emperor! Those eight hundred Shuofang cavalry are like killing gods! Your majesty, run away quickly."

"Come on, shoot this man for me!"

boom! !boom! !
Suddenly, there was an explosion-like cannonade in the sky.

It was as if the wall had been knocked down!
Fighting was still going on outside the city, but inside the city, more than 80 people gathered in a small courtyard.

The leader is Luo Chenglin, a thousand householder from Jinyiwei Nansi's Internal Affairs Office. He has been hiding for a long time, and now he can finally show up.

"The palace is empty right now, it's a god-given opportunity, let's attack now and chop up that traitor!"

The well-trained Jin Yiwei was still different from the mob. More than 80 people moved in unison, brushed and knelt on one knee, and shouted at the same time, "Yes!"

"set off!"

Luo Chenglin obeyed the emperor's secret decree, when Yang Shu sneaked into the palace, he was not idle, he had already been here two years ago.
