Chapter 459: The Battle of Annihilation (2)

Empire Shuangbi, whether it is glory, or ambition Few people know what is going on with the imperial Shuangbi, everyone knows that the empire has two guns, one is a high favorite, and the other is Yang Zaixing, but the two of them fought in the north and south on the battlefield, it can be said that they have made great contributions to the empire, what is included in this, the outside world will not see clearly, and no one knows what the imperial arms mean to the Han.

For a long time, Gao Zhong and Yang Zaixing have taken each other as their driving force to move forward, and only defeating each other is the highest pursuit. The two of you, you have been chasing me for more than ten years, and they have grown up one after another, but Gao Zhong is a relative of the emperor, which is destined to have a higher starting point than Yang Zaixing, which is also inevitable and very normal.

Gao Pet has always believed that he is the first in the world and stands alone in the world, but no matter how much credit he has, he is not as good as Yang Zaixing in the hearts of the people. Otherwise, it wouldn't have gotten to such a high position.

To prove himself, Gao Zhong has always wanted to prove himself, but this handsome and beautiful boy has had to meet questions from the outside world since his debut, so he has been questioned and has been working hard.

Today, the emperor of the Han Dynasty has said this, and Gao Chong did not hesitate at all, he said categorically: "Your Majesty's kindness, Gao Chong must use his achievements on the battlefield as a reward, I will be the first to enter the palace and capture the pseudo-Golden Emperor Wan Yan Heng alive." ”

The other protagonist of one of the two walls of the empire, Iron Spear Yang Zaixing, is two years older than Gao Chong, and the military exploits of the two are comparable, but the Lord has always been lower than Gao Chong, he knows that his background is not as noble as the other party, and if he wants to prove himself, he must work harder, especially this time, he is full of strength in his heart, and he wants to be the first to enter the palace and capture Yan Heng alive.

The Son of Heaven waved his hand and said: "Son of Heaven, to have the dignity of the Son of Heaven, Wan Yan Heng must have the death of the Son of Heaven, it does not have to be captured alive, of course, if he surrenders, it is another matter." Among the four marshals who were responsible for the siege of the city this time, Han Shizhong was the only one who defected from the generals of the Han Forbidden Army, the starting point was very low, but he has been working hard, your efforts, I can see, among the four, you are the oldest, this battle, I hope that you, who are known as the reappearance of the soldiers, can make a name for yourself and prove it to the world, you Han Shizhong is my Han Xin, don't let me down. After the war, I personally officiated the marriage of Linglang Han Jinqi and the nineteenth princess, after all, this champion Lang is both civil and military, and he is a rare talent in the empire. ”

"Ministers, ministers, there is nothing to repay, only to take out the real chapter on the battlefield to defend the honor of the Han army." Han Shiwen Taowu strategy, may be slightly less than Yue Fei, but he is more experienced in life, he knows that the other three marshals will participate in the Western Expedition, and he will return to the imperial court, this is probably the last battle in his life, so this battle will be the time to prove his strength, and he must play his true strength in the siege battle.

After the emperor of the Han Dynasty issued the military order, he said with a smile: "Taking Huining Mansion is basically ironclad, I believe that you can still take Huining Mansion without mobilization." But ten days, for Huining Mansion, which has 200,000 elite soldiers, it is still very easy to hold on for ten days, and your pressure is very high, and I emphasize minimizing casualties, so this battle is not easy. In this battle, it was not about the soldiers who used their lives, but about the wisdom of the battle and the command art of the military commanders. Among the Han army, there are the most powerful siege equipment in the world, the most powerful firearms, and Shenwu cannons. How to use it, how to design siege routines, it is your wisdom that is required. Hopefully, before the siege, you will all be able to come up with your own mature plan, rather than rushing forward to attack the city. Today, I will say so much, I will not say more, tell the soldiers below to strictly abide by military discipline, and the reward will be increased by three times, and this part of the money will be paid by myself. As for the improvement of military merits, it is one level higher than in the past. ”

"The ministers will do everything in their power to break the city within ten days."

After the generals dispersed, Liu Zhenglong, the son of heaven, called the princes together, this time not a meeting, but a heart-to-heart talk between father and son.

Although the Nine Dragons seized the heir, although it was quietly subsided under the suppression of thunder means, the princes were definitely not convinced in their hearts, so this time the father-son talk was very important for the princes and for the Han.

Between father and son, this time there is no cup of wine to talk about heroes, but a tea instead of wine, but this time the tea, unlike the previous tea, is a light yellow, slightly bitter, bitter revealing a rich and fragrant substance, the princes don't know what it is, just know that it smells very fragrant, to the mouth is slightly bitter, the aftertaste is fragrant, one by one dare not ask more, quietly waiting for the father to reveal the answer.

What is this, it is the Great Han Emperor Shang painstakingly tried his best, from thousands of miles away, according to the requirements of the Son of Heaven to get back things, the first time only ten catties were transported, but the entire voyage cost has exceeded one million silver, it can be said that every catty is worth a fortune, of course, this voyage, but also brought a lot of originally did not belong to the Han Dynasty, only belong to the distant and ancient South American species, so it can not be measured by money.

Before departure, ten 20,000 stone sea ships, four Han gunboats, thousands of sailors, merchants, men, and 2,000 Han navy, but when they returned, they lost most of them, which was related to the robbery of pirates and the resistance of the local natives, of course, the most important thing was that the route was too far away, almost a year, and the heavy casualties caused by the invasion of injuries and diseases.

The Emperor of the Han Dynasty originally wanted the imperial merchants to tell the deeds of this voyage, but the time was not ripe, so he could only tell the princes himself.

The princes were fascinated by what they heard one by one, and they were all dumbfounded, it turned out that there was such a vast land outside, and there were so many races and so many species. One by one, they talked about the doubts in their hearts.

The Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty didn't plan to talk too much today, but he just kept throwing off the burden, so he just talked about the general outline. In the end, he said: "The Han army is a martial country, and now it is just around the corner to take the Jin country, but why do you still keep 800,000 regular troops, just to conquer a wider land, the world is very big, I want you to go and see it." The world is too big, the transportation is so backward, the communication is so backward, the Han Iron Army swept the world and conquered the whole world, I believe this, and my plan is to conquer the world in 20 years. However, the imperial court cannot rule such a large territory, and more people are needed to rule on my behalf and manage the unknown realm. I am very relieved that I have many children. But. Is it really good that you're all staring at that position, fighting for it, and finally fighting for your head? Dahan's steamship has been mass-produced, and the speed is many times faster than before, even if it is the farthest place from Dahan, it can make a round trip in half a year. There is only one throne, and the matter of Xiao Wall and Nine Dragons seizing the heir, as long as I am alive, it will never be allowed to happen, absolutely not. If it weren't for the fear that your mother would not be able to accept the pain of losing a child, to be honest, then there were many people among them who did not have the opportunity to listen to my teachings. ”

Every word is heart-wrenching, His Majesty has a killing machine, and his father has the idea of killing his son.

The princes knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing and confessing, almost every prince knew that the big man had a shadow, and the father knew the little thing he did, but he didn't have a seizure. Before the big war, being able to mention this incident shows that the father and emperor are very dissatisfied with the matter of the princes competing for the throne, and even said that he has endured it for a long time, and if he does not admit his guilt, maybe what unbearable consequences will happen.

"Get up, I have no intention of punishing you." Liu Zhenglong, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, waved his hand and motioned for the princes to sit down again, and he said helplessly: "You may not know why I have always known that the prince is taking the heir, but I have not paid attention to it. You don't understand why you are obviously better than the crown prince and more suitable to be the emperor, and why your father is blind to your own excellence. I will tell you the answer today. The prince is indeed not as good as me in many places, not as good as you. It is not a generation of heroes, more than enough to keep it, and not enough to enterprising. I have beaten down the country, it is good that he can defend it. As for opening up the world, it is my mission. I want a king who can guard the country, and this is enough for the crown prince. He will do a good job, this is the mission of the second generation of the Han Dynasty. Since Qin Shi Huang unified the Six Kingdoms, there has never been a great unified dynasty for more than three hundred years. There are too many reasons for this, so I won't go into details. But there is one point, that is, the early kings are wise, the later kings are greedy for enjoyment, and finally the dynasty changes. I don't know if the Han Dynasty that I defeated will exceed three hundred years in the future, but I just know one thing, it will not work to build a military country, and a country with poor military force will eventually make a living for the people, anger and resentment, and eventually collapse. As for the previous dynasty of scholars and doctors, it is so weak, I believe you should know very well. ”

The Emperor of the Han Dynasty spoke for nearly two hours in one breath, expounding the selection criteria of the Han monarch in the future, which is almost a national policy. Almost all the founding emperors of all dynasties have set national policies, even if they are absurd, later kings will implement them without discount. Zhu Yuanzhang, the Ming Taizu who had no economic acumen, topped so many national policies without economic acumen, and finally let seventy percent of the world's silver flow into the Ming Dynasty, which has been suffering from a shortage of money. You must know that in history, at the peak of the Southern Song Dynasty, the total annual tax was 160 million yuan, and the emperor of the Ming Dynasty was so poor that in the end, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty couldn't even pay his military salary.

The Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty talked about the fall of the Jin Kingdom, the Yuan Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty, and the Qing Dynasty with the situation of telling the story, and of course there were many revisions in it. Of course, it also talked about the budding capitalism, and also talked about the direction that the Han would eventually go.

The princes were fascinated by this, and one by one they were eager to go to a small country to become kings in order to realize their ambitions.

In the end, the Emperor of the Han Dynasty said: "I have many princes, but the world is very big, and I need you to be kings. It's time to show what you're really capable of. In this expedition to the west, I will take you to fight the world, and according to your performance, I will successively crown the king, guard the place on behalf of the Son of Heaven, and manage the kingdom that belongs to you. If your mother wants to follow, I will let you go. The world is very big, it belongs to the imperial court, and it is also yours. ”

At this point, the battle for the succession of the Han Dynasty has come to an end, and the princes have finally settled down. After all, it is too risky to fight for the throne, so it is better to follow your father to conquer the world, take a look at the outside world, see what kangaroos look like, see what King Kong looks like, and take a look at the outside world.

The world is very big, I want to go out and see, this point of view has taken root in the hearts of the princes, and not only that, but the young talents in the Han Dynasty have set off a fever for going abroad.

There are three kinds of Han going abroad, the first type of soldier goes to war, the military salary is three times that of the country, the pension is ten times that of the country, and the military industry rewards are more abundant. The second type of young talents go abroad, whether they go out to play, or collect style, or as officials, they are protected by the imperial court, and the imperial court comes out. Overseas officials, the official is promoted to one level, which is divided into three years, five years, three-year return plus one level, and five years plus three levels of recruitment. The third type goes abroad to do business, the imperial court lends money without interest, and provides protection, and meets to reduce or reduce business taxes. Not only that, the Dahan sailors did a good job of laying the groundwork, and the royal caravan would form a team to move forward to help the merchants of the Dahan reasonably avoid risks. The Dahan Royal Commercial Security Foundation was officially launched to protect the legitimate rights and interests of overseas businessmen.

Many fields that are prohibited in Dahan can be operated overseas, even gold mines, silver mines, etc., who find out first, who has the right to mine for ten years, only need to pay commercial taxes.

Princes, domestic merchants, and young talents are eager to go abroad and conquer the vast world. And Han Shizhong, Yelu Ma Wu, Gao Chong, and Yang Zaixing want to conquer Huining Mansion.

In the war, when the Han Dynasty was fighting, the generals had a lot of autonomy, and they decided their own tactics according to the conditions of the time and local conditions, and the supervising army would not interfere in any way. Unless it is a violation of military discipline, the supervising army will not interfere with normal military operations.

This battle is easy to fight, and it is easy to fight, with the current state of the Han Iron Army, taking Huining Mansion is just around the corner. After all, in the face of such a big city, it is too difficult to conquer Huining Mansion in ten days, and it is almost an impossible task, for the four marshals, it is a mountain that is pressed overhead, and people are breathless.

Han Shizhong is old, even a year older than the Son of Heaven, but this does not prevent him from wanting to make a meritorious career, for this old general, this is the last chance to prove his ability, after this battle, he will return to the imperial court. Although he had already arranged a position in the staff headquarters, he preferred to gallop on the battlefield rather than return to the imperial court.

How should this battle be fought, to be honest, Han Shizhong himself has no bottom in his heart, but these days he has been studying Huining Mansion and studying the battle plan, and he still has some ideas, but he is not very mature!
