my days with tyrants

Guangzhou.

Haopan Street.

But at this time, Guangzhou City did not include Haopan Street.

So this is really Haopan Street.

This is the commercial street on the bank of the moat outside Guangzhou.

Due to the development of overseas trade, a large number of merchant ships docked in Guangzhou, and merchants came ashore here first. Therefore, Haopan Street has become a prosperous commercial street outside the city. A large number of shops are gathered on the south bank, while the roots of the city wall on the north bank of the moat have become merchant residences. area, and then connected by a wooden bridge across the moat.

As for under the bridge...

Of course, it is the Huafang of the service industry.

From Haopan Street to the riverside, coolies who came to Guangzhou to make a living gathered.

So on one side are the dancing and singing people on the boat, and on the other side are the coolies in ragged clothes, carrying heavy sacks and moving forward mechanically like worker ants...

"hurry up!"

The overseers cracked their whips and shouted.

A coolie finally couldn't hold on any longer and fell to the ground.

The wooden box on his back fell and shattered on the ground, revealing the bullets inside.

The scholar who was sitting under the parasol drinking tea was so frightened that he threw himself aside as fast as possible, without even bothering to look at what was there. As a result, he suddenly threw himself on a pile of dog shit...

"Master, this thing can't explode."

The house slave next to him quickly picked him up and wiped his body while saying.

A carriage happened to be passing by.

The curtains were opened, and inside there was the same scholar holding the beauty in his arms, looking at him with a smile. The beauty was covering her mouth with a small ball fan, obviously she was also smiling.Of course, just because they wear scholar's robes does not mean that they are real Confucian scholars. In fact, the children of gentry from all over Guangdong will buy a title to facilitate their business.Selling fame was also an important source of income for the Jianwen Dynasty, but it could only be sold up to the scholar level. People still had to take the exams, but these children of the business gentry never thought about taking the exams. They just wanted to wear the robe of a scholar.Having these clothes will make it much easier to deal with the government, especially if you can squeeze in and socialize with those real talents. This is equivalent to an admission ticket to a club...

It's already very advanced.

That is to say, the time is short, after all, it adds up to less than four years.

Give them 40 years and they will probably have a real chaebol club.

If you have fame, you can become an official, if you have fame, you can become a businessman who is as wealthy as the country, and eventually form an interest group that monopolizes the government and wealth. Isn't this a chaebol?
"damn thing!"

The scholar said angrily.

Having just been embarrassed in front of the beauty and his classmates, he walked up to the coolie, grabbed the whip of the supervisor next to him, and whipped it.

The latter screamed and stretched out his hands to cover himself.

"If you dare to destroy the military supplies of the imperial court, you must be dissatisfied with the imperial court. Such a cunning man must be severely punished and dragged to Nanhai County to be charged with being a bandit!"

The scholar shouted.

"Master Li, he is tired from working hard every day these days. Please be merciful and spare him. He really didn't mean to destroy the military supplies of the imperial court. He still has a wife and daughter to support at home. If you send him to the Yamen, his wife All women will starve to death.”

An old coolie next to him quickly knelt down and begged for mercy.

The other coolies knelt down and begged for mercy.

The coolies who lost their land and went to the city to make a living basically had no overnight food and those who made money went to jail. The wives and daughters who stayed outside really had no choice but to sell themselves to survive.

"You don't have to work? I think you are all unscrupulous people. You are transporting military supplies to defend the city. Are you tempted when you heard that the evildoer is dividing the land in Dongguan, and want to deliberately destroy the military supplies to facilitate the evildoer's attack? I'm not afraid to tell you You, the weather in Guangzhou has not changed yet. Look at the cannons on the city wall, look at these soldiers. Not to mention you unscrupulous people, even if the monster comes, it can be blown to pieces. Hurry up and work, or let those The soldiers came and chopped them down!"

Master Li raised his whip and pointed at the coolies in front of him and shouted.

next moment……

"boom!"

A shot went off.

At the same time, his right leg went weak, and he fell to his knees.

Before he could react, he instinctively tried to stand up.

"boom!"

Gunshots sounded again.

Then he also knelt down on his left leg.

Finally feeling the severe pain, he screamed and turned around.

About half a mile downstream on the Pearl River, a large sailing ship was riding the tide.
then……

Gunshots sounded again.

His arm holding the whip was splattered with blood and flesh. "Master!"

The slave finally woke up and rushed to save his young master in panic. But at the same time, with the fourth gunshot, his young master’s remaining arm also hung down amid splatters of blood and flesh, and only his young master’s arm was left. Heart-rending screams.The coolies, supervisors, and businessmen on the dock all looked at the big ship in astonishment. On the deck of the big ship, a woman wearing gorgeous palace clothes stood up, carrying something in her hand.She just stood there so gorgeously, raising the thing in her hand and pointing it this way, then a gunshot rang out, and then Master Li's head spurted out blood and flesh.

At the same time, a centipede boat accelerated forward from behind the big ship, and under the astonished eyes of people, it arrived at the dock.

"The ruler of the Ming Dynasty, Princess Hanshan, has arrived, and the officials, soldiers and people of Guangzhou are waiting to pick her up!"

shouted a man on the Centipede.

Everyone on the shore looked at him like a fool...

"Caomin Quanzhou businessman Li Jin respectfully welcomes Her Royal Highness the Princess of Hanshan!"

A businessman who reacted first fell to his knees and saluted without hesitation.

His men fell to their knees as well.

Immediately afterwards, those Fujian merchants, even local merchants from Chaozhou, Huizhou and other places who had returned to the imperial court, knelt down at the pier to greet Princess Hanshan, the ruler of the Ming Dynasty. Then the coolies also knelt down to greet her with obvious excitement.On the other hand, the officials and soldiers belonging to the Jianwen Dynasty were all at a loss as they watched the big ship getting closer and closer, as well as the gorgeous woman on the big ship.

"Why, am I not the aunt of your so-called emperor?"

The little princess snorted coldly.

The officials immediately woke up.

Indeed, no matter what the current situation is, this is the emperor's biological aunt.

In fact, the civil servants including the Jianwen court knew very well that even if they won in the end, they would still have to serve the little princess. As long as they couldn't kill Yang Feng, they would have to serve the princess as an ancestor.

The officials quickly greeted him with great gifts.

At this time, the city gates of Guangzhou in the north were being closed in a hurry, and at the same time, warning bells on the city walls were ringing throughout the city, and even the defensive soldiers began to climb the city to prepare for the battle.But at this time, people were also shocked to find that there were no soldiers behind the ruling princess. She came in a single ship, and of course, she was followed by a centipede ship that sent orders.But other than that, there was no one following her. The fleet did not follow, and the Beijing camp did not follow. There was only a big ship carrying her, but there must be Ambassador Yang, who was standing on the mast, because his position was too high. It was unexpected, so no one saw him at first.

But soon people saw his colorful figure.

The princess's ship soon arrived at the dock.

This place is almost two miles away from the city wall. Although the heavy artillery on the city wall can hit it, the probability of hitting it is extremely low.

Of course, the main thing is that the ship's bulwarks are enough to withstand any attack...

Don't expect to penetrate even a huge cannon weighing ten thousand pounds.

Because the bulwarks of the Little Princess's ship are made according to the armor of the Dingyuan, which is a three-layer composite armor with steel surface, wrought iron armor, steel plate, wrought iron and hardwood. The thickness is reduced at most. Anyway, there are only sailors and a few sailors on her ship. The maid, that is, she and Yang Feng, do not have to worry about the weight problem caused by this armor.

But it's just the bulwarks, the hull itself is still made of cypress.

The upper structure is also made of cypress.

Even being fully armored wouldn't do it, but in any case, as long as she stood behind the bulwarks, the artillery shells of this era would be unable to harm her.

"Go tell Yunwen and say that I have told him many times. Since he is still stubborn, I will come to talk to him personally today and ask him to come out to see me. If there is anything he can talk to me face to face, even if it doesn't work out, I will I won't detain him. Even if he wants to fight, I will let him go back to the city to continue fighting. This world belongs to the Zhu family, and I am still a Zhu family. He is my nephew after all. If there is anything you can't talk to me in person, I will He grew up with me, doesn’t he even believe in me?”

The little princess stood behind the bulwark and looked at the officials below.

"Exit, I'll go right now."

The latter said tremblingly.

Then he quickly got up and ran towards the city gate behind in a panic.

But at this moment, an artillery piece on the city wall suddenly spurted out flames, and then the shells roared in, and then shot up rubble on the pier.

"Humph, are these the subordinates he trained? All of them have no rules?"

The little princess snorted coldly.

Then she lay on the bulwark and aimed at the city wall...

Although Yang Feng's automatic rifle strictly speaking has an effective range of only 400 meters and a sight range of 1000 meters, and the city wall is more than [-] meters away, in fact it can still kill people at this distance, but it is just beyond the aiming distance.But this is not a problem. If one bullet is not enough, then a magazine is enough. Her Royal Highness Princess Hanshan, wearing a princess dress, directly aimed at the position of the gun, emptied the magazine very simply, and poured thirty rounds of bullets over it. , a seductive soldier who was still lying there watching the impact of the shells immediately fell against the female wall.Then she skillfully replaced the magazine, and just as the two semen-eyed soldiers were taking the guy away, the bullets were splashed again, and then the two men also fell down.

The maid behind silently carried boxes of magazines to Her Royal Highness the Princess, and then handed her new magazines.

There was even another team of maids carrying dozens of rifles waiting for her to spare.

As for Ambassador Yang on the mast...

He was still looking at it with dignity.

Her Royal Highness the Princess below was lying on the bulwark and continuing to shoot at the city wall. She had been fed tens of thousands of bullets. Yang Feng had not shot as many bullets as she had in recent years!And there is enough ammunition around, so there is no need to worry about the barrel overheating. At worst, you can replace it with another one, and the rest is to pour bullets on the city wall as much as you like.

She alone caused chaos on the city wall, and no one even dared to fire.

The coolies and business travelers all looked at Her Royal Highness the Princess in shock on the pier.
