Chapter 407 Purgatory
From the west of Yazhou Prefecture, the terrain suddenly becomes higher.

This is Uszang, which was called Tubo in the Tang and Song Dynasties, and it has been called Uszang since Ban Mita returned to the Yuan court, and it has been more than two hundred years.

Uszang is a Tibetan language. Among them, Uszang refers to the former Tibet, mainly referring to the southern area of ​​Shanshan;

The Yuan court divided Wusi Zang into thirteen households, and together with Narisugulusun Marshal's Mansion, they were all under the jurisdiction of Uszang Narisugulusun Sanlu Xuanwei Shidu Marshal's Mansion.

Marshal Du, the consolation envoy, was the highest official in Uzang and was directly appointed by the Yuan court.

In the Ming Dynasty, it was still called Wusi Tibet. At this time, Tibetan Buddhism began to rise and spread to the Central Plains. Since the Ming court focused its energy on the Mobei grassland, in order to stabilize the situation in the southwest, it canonized King Chanhua as the the local supreme ruler.

However, the social system of Uszang remained unchanged. Lords and lords relied on religious influence to form a feudal aristocratic class, occupying a large amount of land and property.

The people here are not only farmers, herdsmen, but also slaves.

They don't have any rights, they can only obey unconditionally, and they can't even ask anything.

In the land of Central Plains, no matter who the ruler is, how noble his status is, or how many soldiers and horses he has in his hands, as a low-level commoner, when he can't bear it anymore, he can at least shout out, princes and generals, it's better to have kindness!
When a person really can't survive, even if the Jade Emperor came, he would dare to pick up bricks and rise up to resist.

However, such a situation has never occurred in U-Tsang.

Because the Buddha will tell you that your bad life in this life is because you committed crimes in your previous life. In this life, you can be an asshole with peace of mind, let others exploit you, everyone oppresses you, and cultivate blessings for the next life, so that you can have a better identity in the next life. .

Revolt?

nonexistent!

So much so that the lamas in the temple have great power, but the subjects called Mistiel have no personal freedom, and they are burdened with various taxes and corvees, and do hard work all year round.

With the introduction of the New Deal by the Ming Dynasty, the lives of the people at the bottom have been greatly improved. However, Uzang seems to be a piece of imprisoned land, where the serfdom of the lords exploiting and ruling the subjects is still practiced.

All the money you earn is given to you by the Buddha, so you have to hand it over unconditionally.

After paying this year, earn it next year, and then pay it...

What if you can't survive?
Then go to hell!
Here, human life is worthless. There is no difference between the death of a person and the death of an ant.

Today, tens of thousands of troops are stationed here.

Due to the lack of supplies, when the Uzbek army camped, there was almost no protection except for a simple fence.

Because no matter how strong the camp is, it cannot withstand the artillery of the Ming army.

Every time there is a battle, the camp will be devastated.

Simply keep it simple, and save trouble when running.

It was late at night and most people were asleep.

There were only a few soldiers on duty, and they just walked around casually, and found a fire to lean against, waiting for the sunrise.

The cold style of the plateau is piercing. They don't know how long this kind of life will last, and they don't bother to think about it. They just numbly carry out the orders from the higher-ups.

The only thing to do at night is to look up at the stars in the sky.

"Look, what is that?"

Someone was surprised to find that there seemed to be more stars tonight than before.

I don't know if it's because the night wind blows away the clouds, and suddenly there are many more stars above the head.

These stars vary in size from time to time, and seem somewhat different from other stars.

"It's a miracle, a miracle!"

Finally, someone discovered that these suddenly extra stars seemed to be somewhat similar to the flying star that suddenly traveled in the evening.

It's a little small, but there are a lot of them.

"The Buddha is manifested, the Buddha is manifested!"

Everyone knelt down one after another, chanting words in their mouths.

These flying stars seem to have heard people's prayers, and they flew closer and closer, until they reached the sky above the Uzang garrison camp.

laugh……

A button on a Kongming lantern was triggered, igniting the fuse.

The rope snapped, and the bomb burst into flames and fell.

Boom!

In the night sky, there was a sudden burst of light, accompanied by a huge explosion, which was deafening.

The power of these bombs was comparable to that of artillery, and they exploded directly in the camp, and many people lost their lives in their sleep.

Boom!

Boom!

Then came the second, the third...

The sudden explosion caught people off guard. Many people were still praying on their knees, not knowing what happened until their death.

Sang Du woke up so suddenly that he didn't even have time to put on his shoes, and ran out of the big tent with bare feet.

"What's going on, the Ming army attacked?"

No one answered, only the sound of explosions one after another.

"Quick retreat, quick retreat..."

Sang Du hurriedly commanded the troops to retreat. He didn't know when the Ming army came, but he only had one thought in his mind, run!

Suddenly, he seemed to have discovered something, and slowly raised his head.

Directly above, a starlight kept flickering, and under the faint light, it seemed that something had fallen.

Boom!

The bomb exploded above Sandu's head, and the tent of the Chinese army instantly turned into a sea of ​​flames.

Countless people woke up from their dreams. They took up weapons and rushed out of the tent, trying to fight the Ming army, but they couldn't find the Ming army.

In the sky overhead, only black bombs fell from the sky.

Every explosion was accompanied by screams, and some people didn't even have time to scream.

The tents in the camp started to burn. When some people woke up, they found that their bodies were covered in fire, and they cried out for their lives...

Many people were even unable to escape.

They knelt down and prayed loudly, hoping that the Buddha could come to save them.

But all this is in vain.

The war horses in the stables were frightened, rushed out of the fence like crazy, and galloped wildly.

Crazy war horses were running around like headless flies, and countless people were knocked into the air and trampled...

After the first round of bombing, the entire camp has been reduced to purgatory!

However, it's not over yet.

The second round of flying stars is already approaching...

This time, they finally understood that the flying star was not a manifestation of the Buddha, but a symbol of...destruction!
Kongming lanterns are lifeless, and they don't know what mercy is.

They just fly mechanically into the air, trigger the fuse at the predetermined time, drop the bomb, and continue rising into the dark night sky.

Each round of attack is fifty bombs, only half of them hit, that's enough.

After the fourth round of Kongming Lanterns was released, Mei Chun looked at the wind vane on the flagpole and said, "The wind direction is about to change, let's go here tonight!"

Belin nodded, motioning for a stop.

The two of them stood like this, looking ahead, watching the fire and explosions continuously coming from the distant hills.

After a long time, Mei Chun finally couldn't help but said, "Isn't it...too cruel?"
