my days with tyrants

Sister Liu's speculation soon became a reality.

Just when eleven vassal kings including Yan, Zhou, Jin, Qin, Qingsu, Liao, Han, and Guning gathered in Kaifeng, Zhu Yunqi suddenly appeared in Kaifeng city, and then cried to these uncles and brothers, saying that his younger brother tried to kill him for an unwarranted crime, and asked everyone The king upheld justice for him.

Of course, it also includes forcing the King of Xiang to death.

The eleven vassal kings who were moved by his tearful cry jointly signed a petition and asked Zhu Yunxi to grant him a vassal.

He also executed Song Zhong who forced King Xiang to death.

Of course Zhu Yunxi refused.

Moreover, he was enraged, and directly issued an order to request all the vassals to return to their fiefs immediately without having to attend the funeral. At the same time, he ordered Xie Gui, the commander of Henan Province, to escort Zhu Yunqi back to the capital, and put him in a prison car if he dared to die or live.Xie Gui immediately went to arrest him, but was blocked by the guards of the King of Qin. Then Zhu Di ordered the accompanying guards to control Kaifeng City.Xie Gui tried to mobilize troops to stop him forcibly, but was captured by Zhu Di's guards. A few days later, he was mobilizing troops to prepare to go east, and then surrounded Kaifeng to force the kings to submit to Chang Sheng. He was assassinated and killed in Xi'an.

The assassin commits suicide.

But it is very likely that he is the dead man of King Qin.

After all, with the advancement of weapons at this time, the difficulty of assassinating such high-ranking generals has been greatly reduced.

Chang Sheng was shot in the head by a flintlock pistol at close range. He rode through the city of Xi'an. The assassin hid in the crowd, and when he passed by, he suddenly drew his gun and opened fire on him, and Duke Kai was killed on the spot.But then when the same party was hunted in the city, Chang Sheng's subordinate Shenjiying clashed with Qin Fan's guards, and then Qin Fan's guards assembled to confront Shenji Ying in Xi'an city on the grounds that folk rumors wanted to cleanse Qin Fan.

With Qin Wangfu as the core, they blocked the surrounding large blocks.

Immediately Zhu Yunxi took Lan Yu as the commander in chief, led an army of [-] troops including Shenji Battalion to the north, and at the same time ordered Beiping, Shandong, and Huguang Sandu Division to send troops to encircle Kaifeng.

At the same time, Xu Huizu, who had just returned to Shanxi, was ordered to lead the Shanxi Army to go south to Xi'an.

"Why is it so troublesome?"

Yang Wen frowned, looking at the imperial decree sent urgently.

This is sent from Liaoyang.

He arrived in Huining on the same day as him, but he went north and went to Huining privately in the name of inspecting the military affairs of Liaodong. After all, Huining is not under the jurisdiction of the Liaodong capital.
However, it can be said that no one cares about the place where the sky is high and the emperor is far away.

As for the imperial decree, it was for Huining Dusi.

If Ning Dusi immediately selects [-] soldiers and horses to go south to accept Yang Wen's restraint, and then guards the guards of the Three Kings of Han in Liaoning, the guards of the King of Han don't matter. The two feudal lords of Liaoning are all really strong soldiers and horses.

King Liao is the richest, and as the little princess's brother, he often asks the latter for all kinds of modern technical information and even military tactics. Anyway, his sister has her own watch, so she asks sister Liu to pass it on to her and let people know. Just copy it down.Therefore, the three guards are equivalent to three new army brigades on horseback. They are all four infantry phalanxes plus a cavalry team and field artillery team. Even the supplies are accompanied by camel teams, which have extremely strong mobile combat capabilities.In fact, if the same number of people fought in the set area, one of his guards could contain an army of Shenjiying. It's easy here.

Although King Ning does not have his strength, he is still the standard camel city of the Ming army.

But he has Mongolian vassals there.

Therefore, the actual military strength cannot be said to be simply three guards. By buying those Mongolian vassals, he can double his strength in a short period of time. More importantly, the main force of the Daning Capital Division is still in the Western Regions.

Not only the capital of Daning, the capital of Shanxi, the capital of Beiping, the capital of Daning, even the main forces of Shanxi and Shaanxi did not come back.

The ones brought by Zhu Di, the ones brought by Xu Huizu, and the follow-up reinforcements to Song Sheng were all drawn from these capitals, but the guards of the vassal kings basically did not move. For example, the guards of King Su stayed behind in Gansu.The actual situation is not optimistic. Taking Shanxi Xingdusi as an example, more than half of the troops are in the Western Regions and have not returned, or are on their way back.If we really counted it, those old and weak people who stayed behind might not be able to fight against the coalition forces of King Jin and King Dai, not to mention that King Gu also had two guards.

"First, it doesn't look like a real rebellion.

If they really rebelled, they wouldn't get together, and they just got caught in the same pot. After all, their strength is not enough to fight against His Majesty, but it is reasonable for each of them to guard the feudal city. Now they are far away from the feudal city. Together, there are no more than 3 people.

What can I do?
Second, at least for now, His Majesty does not want to force them to rebel, but only wants them to go back without having to go to Beijing for the funeral, and the word rebellion is not mentioned in the imperial decree.That is to say, they stayed in Kaifeng on purpose, in order to avoid uneasiness of the guards in the rear, they asked you to dispatch soldiers and horses from all over the place, and just go over and take a closer look.Obviously, His Majesty also tries to avoid using the word rebellion, and don't make it too big, just transfer 3 to [-] people to station in Guangning area in the name of drill, anyway, it is very reasonable for you to lead troops to drill.

But don't excite them.

If they really misunderstood the situation and thought that you were going to wipe them out, but the King of Liao was not around and there was no one to preside over them, and they rebelled impulsively, then it would be your fault in the end.

There's me around here.

Nothing big will happen. "

Yang Feng said.

Of course, he was just using information to coax Yang Wen, because at this time the coalition forces of the kings had already defeated the Henan army trying to enter Kaifeng, and had imprisoned Xie Gui, the commander of the capital of Henan.

But it took at least half a month for the imperial decree to travel from the capital to Liaodong, and it was winter, so it would definitely take longer, but Zhang Ying reported to him directly with his watch.Zhang Ying also had it. She had settled those adopted daughters in Yanzhou, and then hurried to Kaifeng to get first-hand information. Anyway, her identity was not in any danger.But according to her news, Zhu Di still has not made up his mind to rebel. What he wants now is to continue to go to Beijing to attend the funeral, but to bring troops to Beijing with those vassal kings.And use this to negotiate with Zhu Yunxi. The latter disagrees with them bringing troops into Beijing. You must know that these vassal kings add up to more than 2 absolute elites, and Ma He's fleet is still in Taicang at this time.

In addition, the two kings of Chu Min are still in Wuchang, and they have followed King Yan and others to play to ask Song Zhong to be punished.

The king of Chu has many troops.

He actually controlled his old guards in Wuchang, and the guards of the king of Xiang also played for the king of Hunan, so if he led troops to Beijing, he would probably be the guards of the two vassals of Chu and Xiang.

In the final analysis, this matter is being deliberately fueled by the people, and it is completely Zhu Yunxi's fault. It is because he is narrow-minded and cannot tolerate his brother. You must know that what his brother has done the most these years is acting.Especially the gentry like him, and they have been sparing no effort to praise him among the people. The capital may know more, but in other places, especially those far away places, the gentry can't just say what they say.

virtuous king.

Then the tyrant who just brutally suppressed Confucian scholars wanted to kill his grandfather because he was suspicious of his brother, regardless of his grandfather's burial.

Then he was forced to flee.

And another virtuous king, his uncle Xiang Wang, wanted to protect him and mediate the conflict between brothers.

King Xiang's reputation is also very good.

He has a good record in leading troops and fighting, and he is also very talented in writing. He knows how to play piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.Although he may be a little stronger, but this kind of thing depends on his colleagues. Among Lao Zhu's sons, this is a virtuous gentleman.In the end, not only did the tyrant not let go of his own brother, but even his own uncle, he forcibly forced such a virtuous king to death, and the death was so miserable. If the folk gentry exaggerated it, it would become June As wronged as Feixue.

In this case, it is completely what the people want for King Yan and others to defend him.

This is different from the original history.

Originally, his death in history did not arouse any indignation among the people, including the guards. After all, Zhu Yunqi was liked by the gentry at that time, and the public opinion they spread among the people must support the imperial court.

But now Zhu Yunxi is hated or even hostile by the gentry.

Manipulating public opinion as much as possible, of course.

"I will return to Liaoyang immediately, and then transfer troops to practice in Guangning."

Yang Wen nodded.

Indeed, with Yang Feng here, nothing major will happen.

Even if the Liao king's guards were involved in something, it is estimated that Yang Feng would be honest if he yelled in the past. In Liaodong, Yang Feng's words are the most effective. He has hooked up with the Yang family more or less from top to bottom, including those prison guards. And Tusi, they are also the ones who can be said to be most afraid of Yang Feng.

He left immediately.

however……

"Zhang Ying got the news that there was a mutiny in Beiping. Brother Zhu Gaochi imprisoned Guo Ying and controlled Beiping with Yanshan guards."

Sister Liu said.

"Fuck, forget about them."

Yang Feng said.

Indeed, he had forgotten these two.

It is true that Zhu Di has been leading troops away all the time, but Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Gaoxu have been in Beiping. Although Zhu Yuanzhang has ordered the transfer of the feudal domain, of course this kind of thing cannot be completed in a short time. In fact, it has not even started yet.Originally, it was not until the beginning of spring that Zhu Di's family was allowed to go to the Western Regions with a guard. Before that, the three guards of Yanshan continued to serve as the guards of King Yan.Zhu Gaochi's brothers are not here without Zhu Di, these two are not half-children at the beginning, Zhu Gaochi is already in his early twenties, and Zhu Gaoxu is also in his nineteenth year, it can be said that it is the time of bravery, one is cunning and the other is brave.

more importantly……

They don't want to go to the Western Regions!

How great it is to push their father to the throne!
And this is different from the original history. In the original history, few of Zhu Di's guards have been abolished by Zhu Yunqi. Now, except for those who followed the Western Expedition, at least 7000 of his three guards remain in Beiping.

On the contrary, the capital of Beiping has transferred a large number of Western Expeditions and has not returned.

"This is going to be a big game."

Yang Feng said with emotion.

Really played big.

The Zhu Gaochi brothers had planned for a long time. They tricked Guo Ying to the palace on the grounds of asking Guo Ying to intercede for Zhu Di. After he left, he was held down by Zhu Gaoxu immediately.

Although Lao Guo was indeed a titan when he was young, but at this age, he really couldn't stand up to a young man like Zhu Gaoxu.

Zhu Gaochi, who captured Guo Ying, immediately summoned the other generals of the Beiping Dusi, and the latter all went there stupidly, and then Zhu Gaochi simply put his father's gold, silver and jewelry in the hall. You are willing to follow my father to seek greater wealth, Or do you want my brother to kill you now?These generals were in awe of Zhu Di, and under the circumstances, of course they chose to follow Zhu Di to seek greater wealth. After all, Beiping was a frontier fortress at this time, and the generals had no affection for the new emperor in the capital.

Most of them have not even seen Zhu Yunxi.

Peiping was immediately brought under control.

On the same day that Beiping was controlled by the Zhu Gaochi brothers, Lan Yu led his army to Kaifeng.

But the striker was defeated again.

Of course his forward was not the Shenji Battalion, the latter was infantry and needed to walk from the capital to Kaifeng, and there was no water transportation this season, so Lanyu's forward was a cavalry from the Jingying.However, the combat effectiveness of these Beijing cavalry was far behind that of Zhang Fu and Zhu Neng who came back from the Western Regions. Even their war horses had become all Arabian horses, and finally the Beijing cavalry was overwhelmed by them.

This battle is very important.

Because Sapphire's biggest role is his prestige in the army, but this battle made the fear of him in Kaifeng city's armies drop sharply.

Although he didn't play...

He couldn't go into battle either, regardless of his age, the old wound from the bayonet stabbed by Yang Feng also made him unable to charge forward, and few of his bravest adopted sons were reunited at this time Yes, sapphire is still sapphire, but it already belongs to the residual blood, and it is long gone from its heyday.

However, his command ability is sufficient, so he simply ordered to retreat, waiting for the follow-up troops to arrive.

Anyway, the eleven kings add up to more than 2 people. Even with the guards of the original Zhou king who were controlled in Kaifeng, it is less than [-]. ...

Uh, there is no more Peking.

Not only was there no army in Peiping, but the Ming army on the outskirts of Peiping was also unable to move.

Huguang...

There is no more Huguang.

Because the king of Chu cut off the Yangtze River shipping in Wuchang.

Immediately afterwards, the guards of the King of Xiang in Jingzhou took control of Jingzhou in the name of seeking justice for the King of Xiang, and received the support of the gentry in Jingzhou. Therefore, it was impossible for the Huguang armies to go north again, and the Jiangxi armies who were going north for reinforcements did not dare to move.

Fortunately, by this time, neither side had used words such as rebellion or Jingnan.

Yan Wang and others are going to lead troops to Beijing to attend the funeral.

Brother Zhu Gaochi complained for King Xiang and Zhu Yunwen.

Under the banner of the King of Chu, it was the Jingzhou Mutiny. In order to prevent the guards of the King of Xiang from going down the river to raid the capital, he cut off the shipping on the Yangtze River, as if the Jingzhou Mutiny was before he cut off the Yangtze River shipping. Officials and military generals in Wuchang City supported it.At this point, the gentry and civil servants also began to tear off their camouflage. After all, they would not dare to do it alone, but if the vassal king did something, they would dare.
