Chapter 306: The Night Emperor

Mobile reading

"Huh?" A pair of well-maintained hands picked up a document from the pile of files, looked at the words on it, it was sent from Annan Province, this person let out a sigh of relief, took it and unfolded it in front of him, and looked at it carefully, "Huang Qiusheng, the governor of Annan?" Well, because of the lack of food, he can't send reinforcements to reinforce the Shanxi Rebellion Camp for the time being......" Seeing this, he snorted heavily, and was about to throw this document aside, but he stopped halfway through his hand, and obviously noticed something different.

The enemy is not cool, and then learn Moyue, my skill grandson

Normally, when officials from all over the country are unable to meet the requirements of the imperial court, they will find all kinds of excuses, and then negotiate with the imperial court to obtain more silver from the imperial court, but now this document envelope sent from Annan is stamped with several red 800 li urgent stamps, and it looks like it has been sent all the way. Huang Qiusheng can be the governor of Annan, naturally he will not be a fool, and it is impossible to send a letter in an urgent manner for 800 miles saying that he cannot fulfill the will of the imperial court. And, as he weighed the letter with his hand, it was evident that it was written on several pages of paper, and he snorted impatiently, and once again unfolded it to look downward.

Before he had time to start looking closely, he noticed that something was wrong, the letterhead on the front page was rough in workmanship, at first glance it was rice paper, soft and lying on its stomach, with a lot of words written on it with a brush, but the next few pages of paper were much harder than rice paper, and the crisp sound could be heard when the paper was opened. He pulled out the following pages and spread them out on the table, which surprised him to find that the following pages turned out to be a kind of paper that seemed to have a glazed surface, and the paper was firm and felt as smooth as skin to the touch. Spread it out and take a closer look, there are a lot of small words lying on it like ants.

These words immediately made him difficult, he was already an old man in his early sixties, although he did not have to read the recital at night every day, but he could not stand the decay of his physiology, presbyopia had already begun to torment him, at this moment these words as small as ants made him almost put his face by the window and could not see clearly, turned a few pages back, and finally saw a few pictures, these pictures seem to be sketched on paper with an ink pen, but they are completely different from the painting style of the Wu Dynasty, the people in it are lifelike, The proportions of each person's head and body are so harmonious that he is amazed when he sees it. Spread them out again on the table, and they showed men who looked like soldiers, each wearing a cardigan with a hem just around their waist. There was a wide belt around his waist, two small straps hanging from his shoulders, and several boxes that looked small on the belt, but it was not clear what it was for. Each soldier wore trousers on his legs, which were tucked up at the legs, and a pair of low-top boots on his feet, made of unknown materials.

The soldiers all held a long bird gun in their hands, which looked longer than the bird pipe of the Great Martial Arts, and there was also a short sword on the mouth of the gun, which together looked like a spear. The soldiers on the screen are kneeling or standing, some holding bird guns in their hands and shooting, while others are stabbing the enemy rushing in front of them with their short swords. Each soldier's face was different, but they were all the same, with the same expression of hatred and hatred.

He couldn't help but put down this painting, closed his eyes and recalled for a moment, he accompanied the Emperor of the Apocalypse Zhu Youxiao to inspect the military camp many times, although the soldiers of the Imperial Forest Army could be regarded as contributing a lot when they drilled one by one, but they were far from the murderous spirit of these soldiers on this drawing, what does this drawing mean? Could it be that Annan trained such an army? That's not right! He closed his eyes again, remembering what he had seen in the Imperial Guards. It is not that there are no firearms in the army of the Wu Dynasty, even the Wu eunuchs in the palace in the Forbidden City of Beijing are also practicing firearms, saying that the firearms of the Wu Dynasty should not be there that he has not seen, but at the moment he has never seen the bird gun in this picture, let alone the custom of the bird gun with a short sword inserted in the mouth, this is a good way, when the enemy is approaching, the fire gun will retreat, and the fire gun in their hands will be useless when it is close, it can only be used as a burning stick, and it must be protected by infantry and cavalry. If you stick a short sword like this, you can use it as a spearman, and you can also pose a threat to the enemy when they are approaching.

There were a few paintings in the back, but the things on them were similar to the ones in the front, except that there was one picture of something flying in the clouds, and he didn't know what it was, but at first glance it looked like it was sitting in a bird. He couldn't help but nodded, this strange bird is very delicately drawn, the wings and body are clear, you might as well take it to the emperor to see, anyway, the emperor likes such "tricks and tricks".

After reading these paintings, it aroused a trace of interest in him, and he flipped through several pages further, but those small words as small as ants still dazzled him, and he couldn't help but sigh. Suddenly, his mind turned, he couldn't read the words written on these smooth papers, just look at Huang Qiusheng in front of him? Anyway, Huang Qiusheng wrote on rice paper with a brush, so he can read it clearly anyway.

So he reopened Huang Qiusheng's letter and read it carefully, there were not many words on the letter, but it was written in detail. It turned out that Annan Mansion was really as they said, they couldn't make up the food and salary, and they couldn't give the money, so the army refused to send troops, and there were signs of making trouble. A year ago, a group of sea visitors came to the junction of Annan and Annan, claiming to be descendants of Chinese Miao who had fled from the pre-Qin period, and now they had returned to Wuguo to serve the imperial court, and established a coastal city in the forest full of plagues, called Oriental Port. They had an army and were willing to lend it to the Wu Dynasty to suppress the Shaanxi and Jin rebellions, but ...... A bit of a small request.

The enemy is far from being cold, the enemy hates Mo, and the lonely enemy Kecha

The enemy is far from being affectionate, the enemy hates and makes trouble by being lonely

These words stunned him, a small request, what a small request? Looking at what Huang Qiusheng meant, they just wanted to borrow troops from these Chinese Miao descendants to help suppress them, and use such a big thing as sending troops to make some small requests? That must not be much smaller, and besides, why should such a powerful army stay in Annan, where the Wu Dynasty is at the end of the world? Why not expand outward? Wait, he was suddenly stunned again, Dongfang Harbor? How do you seem to have heard of this name?

He sat there in a daze, he felt as if he had heard of it, but he didn't know where he had heard it, and after a while, he stood up and shouted, "Someone! ”

He sat there in a daze, a name he felt as if he had heard it, but he didn't know where he had heard it, and after a moment he stood up and shouted, "Someone! ”

Several little eunuchs hurriedly ran in, and when they saw him standing, they hurriedly saluted, "Factory master, slaves and maids obey orders!" ”

"Which people are literate? Come and help me find a word here, Port Orient! Saying that, the man, who was called the factory man, pointed to a large number of pieces on the table and in the cabinet next to him and said, "Hurry up and find it, whoever finds it first will have a prize!" ”

Several little eunuchs looked at each other, since the beginning of the Wu Dynasty, eunuchs have not been allowed to interfere in politics, according to this order, any eunuch who touches the chapter can be killed. Although the factory in front of him claims to be the emperor of the night, they are not! If they are traced down in the future, won't these little eunuchs all have to be beheaded?

Seeing the appearance of these little eunuchs, the factory man couldn't help but sigh and said, "It's okay, if you want to arrest me, it's right to arrest me, the eunuch who is holding a pen, you are just helping me find something, it's okay." He waved his hand. Although the little eunuchs listened to his words and began to search for them in the mountains of music, they were still trembling.

This factory justice is a well-known villain in the old world, the great eunuch is known as the nine-thousand-year-old Wei Zhongxian, this nine-thousand-year-old who died in the old world in 1627 under Chongzhen's hands in the new world because the Emperor of the Apocalypse is still alive, so he is still alive, but in the past few years, although his so-called power has been exerted to the extreme, but after all, he is just a eunuch, the emperor does not think about the government every day, only thinks about all kinds of novel carpentry, so he throws everything related to the government to him for approval, Even if he was troublesome, he directly threw the jade seal to him and asked him to help him deal with the affairs of the court. Thinking about the first time he took over the jade seal, his hands and feet were cold and he couldn't stand steadily, this is directly roasting him on the shelf! Eunuchs are not allowed to interfere in politics, and these little eunuchs know about it, so why doesn't he know? But in the past few years, many things have been approved in his hands, and the major affairs of the court are often only approved by him, and if he can't do it, he will cover a jade seal, and he doesn't know how much he has done to pretend to be the emperor.

He also tried to report all kinds of national events to the emperor, but every time he went to the emperor, the emperor of the apocalypse was always busy at the workbench with all kinds of carpentry tools in his hand, and he always said "Okay, okay!" I know! You look at it. ”

As the saying goes, a companion is like a tiger, but a tiger and a cat are almost the same. As a eunuch, he Wei Zhongxian is active in the harem every day, and he has cut off all the symbols as a man, so there is no need to fight with the emperor for the sake of "reputation". During the day, the Emperor of the Apocalypse sat absentmindedly as his "Emperor of the Day", but he had to give approval to the officials at night. It was not uncommon for the officials to receive an absent-minded reply from the emperor during the day, only to see a completely different reply on the next day's recital, which surprised them, but since most of the replies were more appropriate to meet their requirements, no one ever questioned the question.

But he knows very well that although he says that he is the emperor of the night, he still can't see the light, if it is discovered by outsiders, it will definitely be a dead end if it is passed out, so except for his own godsons, no one else in this ceremonial eunuch is absolutely not allowed to take half a step. However, there is no impermeable wall in the world, and with the rumors in the market during this time, he heard a lot of rumors, saying that he secretly controlled the government, framed Zhongliang, and was ready to rebel. Although he was very annoyed, he couldn't find out who did it, so in addition to asking Dongchang to step up the investigation, he also asked Tian Ergeng to urge his Jinyi guards to inquire about the news and see where these rumors came from.

The ship branch is far from being the only one, and the cold ship is early

"Found it! I found it! With the cry of surprise from the little eunuch next to him, Wei Zhongxian recovered from his reverie, turned his head to look, and couldn't help but be shocked to find that the little eunuch was not holding a chapter, but a report from his subordinate Dongchang, he took it and looked at it carefully, sure enough, it was Dongfang Port, but he immediately remembered what was mentioned in this report. It was last year, and his subordinates reported that they had found very unusual firearms in a new city called Dongfang Port in Annam, which were not only much more powerful than the firearms equipped in the imperial army, but also very fast to load, so the eunuch brought dozens of people and the local active Meideno people to buy some firearms used by the Dongfang Port army by bribing the officers of the Dongfang Port. But before they could gather the guns and leave, they were accidentally discovered, and the more than ten eunuchs fought fiercely with the army of Dongfang Port in a panic, and finally they were outnumbered and all killed. Only a few eunuchs survived because they happened to go out drinking, and when they realized that their identities had been revealed, they quickly left the port of Vostochny and sent the report back.

Seeing the appearance of these little eunuchs, he couldn't help but sigh and said, "It's okay, if you want to arrest me, it's right to arrest me, the eunuch Bingbi, you just help me find something, it's okay." He waved his hand. Although the little eunuchs listened to his words and began to search for them in the mountains of music, they were still trembling.

"Factory, I found it here." There was another call from the little eunuch, he put down the report, took the little eunuch handed it, and took a closer look at it It was another report, saying that a convoy from Dongfang Port was heading to Beijing, preparing to present a batch of gifts to the emperor. However, the informant heard that these gifts were mixed with things that were intended to assassinate the emperor, so the fan decided to attack the convoy. However, because the convoy was fast, even faster than a horse-drawn carriage, and because it had large Kong Ming lanterns that could rise into the sky for reconnaissance and vigilance, it was difficult to track and attack. It was not until almost two months later that they seized the opportunity near Xinye, Henan, and took advantage of the division of the convoy to launch an attack on them, but this attack was a failure, and the firearms used by these strangely dressed men were sharper, and they suffered heavy losses and were captured. When they finally seized the opportunity to storm the enemy, they were forced to flee when they encountered a huge ship that emerged from the sky, and the weapons on the ship were far more advanced and terrifying than those used by these strange people.

"These people are really weird!" Wei Zhongxian said thoughtfully while flipping through the pictures.
