I am not stupid, when he heard that the Ming army was killing the grassland, he suddenly came to his senses, and it was obvious that he had been tricked!

"The cunning and despicable Ming Dog will not let you go!" Altan Khan has never suffered such a big loss in his life, thinking back to the past few days, the guy named Yang Jisheng, with a smile on his face, holding a national letter full of nonsense, shuttled back and forth, deceived himself around, and really believed that the Ming Dynasty would promise Tonggong's nonsense!

"Shame, shame!" I replied angrily, waved the whip in his hand, and whipped it at the Han man beside him, the whip of raw cowhide, and the hatred of the shot, within a few strokes, this guy was beaten to the flesh, embarrassed.

Speaking of this person, he is still a character, his name is Xiao Qin, he is a military family of Datong Zuowei, he joined the White Lotus Sect in his early years, and he is a small leader, with hundreds of people under him.

In the third year of Jiajing and the twelfth year of Jiajing, there were two mutinies in Datong that shocked the government and the opposition. At that time, Xiao Qin fled to the grassland with his subordinates.

The ambitious Altan Khan accepted the defecting Han Chinese, and soon discovered that they were proficient in military service, and that their ability to smelt iron, build houses, and make bows and arrows was very helpful in improving his strength.

From then on, Altan Khan continued to recruit, deceive, and rob Han Chinese to help him.

As one of the more influential, Xiao Qin was gradually appreciated by me and served as a staff member. This time, the plan to attack the capital and force the Ming Dynasty to bow its head was formulated by Xiao Qin.

Negotiating with the Ming court was also done by Xiao Qin, and at this time, Altan Khan vented his anger on him.

……

Just like with pets, when the owner likes it, it will be held in the palm of the hand, when the owner feels useless. will be unceremoniously whipped and even spitned.

Xiao Qin was beaten all over his body, he gritted his teeth and didn't scream, sweating in pain. Intermittently shouted: "Great Khan, the slave was deceived by Minggou, but the slave has the idea to deal with Minggou." Great Khan, let the minions speak! ”

At last he stopped the whip and roared, "Get out! ”

Xiao Qin struggled to get up from the ground, her teeth chattering.

"Great Khan, Ming Dog, they used a delaying tactic to encircle Wei and save Zhao."

"Don't talk about those useless ones, Ben Khan wants to know how to teach Ming Dog a lesson!" I replied irritably.

Xiao Qin hurriedly said: "Great Khan, the border soldiers of Ming Dog have their appearance, and they can't help the warriors of the grassland. You only have 10,000 troops, which is enough to keep the Khan's court alive. Then concentrate all the forces to attack Minggou's capital, loot the surrounding rich cities, and let Minggou know that the dignity of the Great Khan cannot be provoked! ”

Xiao Qin's fierce gaze was better than that of the wolf, completely forgetting that he was also one of the "Ming dogs" he said, and he hated the Ming Dynasty even more than the Mongols.

After listening to Xiao Qin's suggestion, I rolled my eyes. Gladly accepted.

The Mongol army quickly split into two parts, and 10,000 of them immediately left the Great Wall. went to stop the border army of the Ming Dynasty, and the other main force was personally commanded by Alta, and once again killed the capital.

Tens of thousands of cavalry unfurled, the wind swept away, and all the towns and villages along the way were destroyed, and they frantically looted people and materials. Destroy everything you can.

In more than a day, the army of Alta once again slaughtered outside the Desheng Gate and Dongzhi Gate of the Jingshi, and the flags were unfurled, like the ocean. Xiao Qin led his team of traitors and helped me make a large number of ladders overnight. When the sky is still bright. Thousands of Mongol soldiers, dismounted from their horses, carried ladders, and charged towards the tall city walls.

……

Tang Yi had already prepared for his reaction, and even ordered the people of the surrounding villages and towns to be moved into the capital, fortified the walls, burned the houses, filled the wells, and fought a bloody battle with the Tartars with the strong capital.

His actions soon reached the ears of Yan Song's father and son, who fully embodied the nature of fighting insiders and outsiders, being fierce as a tiger at home and soft as a sheep on the outside. even secretly instigated the official to write a letter, saying that the actions of the Tang family's father and son were to attract me to attack the capital, disturb the holy driver, and have ill intentions......

As soon as this song went up, before Jiajing had time to react, the speech officials of the six departments and thirteen provinces launched together, rushed to the house of the colleague who was on the book, surrounded and scolded, bricks and dung, and threw it all over the yard.

The people in the capital were excited, and everyone was vying for words, and they couldn't wait to rush out immediately and fight to the death with me.

Of course, the storm of public opinion is not something that Tang Yi can set off, and the quiet Xu Ge is the real driving force behind the scenes. Obviously, Xu Jie has also bet all the chips, can he get rid of passive isolation and become a giant who competes with Yan Song, in one fell swoop!

Tang Yi and Daddy didn't have the heart to take care of the disturbances from the top, and all their energy was focused on how to deal with me.

"Yi'er, let's fight!"

"Well, it's a fight!"

Tang Shen sent the recruited young men and all the new science and technology scholars to the southeast, east and west, and the real main battlefield still needed experienced soldiers. Tang Shen has been painstakingly selecting in the Beijing camp these days.

Speaking of which, although Jingying is old, weak, sick and disabled, and there is a lot of garbage, after all, there are tens of thousands of people, and there are still available talents in the big ones. Tang Shen selected 3,000 people and trained them himself, not to mention, in ten days, he had a trace of appearance.

But it is not enough to have people, but also to have weapons, although the Tartars are not enough siege equipment, but the bow and arrows are still sharp, and they must be restrained. The first thing Tang Yi thought of was firearms, and when he inquired, there were not a few guns and artillery in the Beijing camp, Tang Yi was overjoyed, and asked people to take out all the weapons and verify them.

When the generals of the Beijing camp heard this, they all shook their heads and waved their hands.

"Why experiment, take it out and keep it when the time comes, let the Tartar fart pee and pee."

Tang Yi looked at their virtues, where did he not understand, he was afraid that there was a problem with the weapon, and he didn't need to speak, Lu Bing rushed in directly with the Jinyi guard, and moved out three artillery pieces and twenty guns from the warehouse.

The soldiers were brought in to shoot, and after a long time of not practicing, the soldiers trembled, and their eyes were so frightened that they closed their eyes when they fired.

Twenty guns, three rounds of fire, five shots do not hit, three shots explode, wounded many of their own people by mistake, artillery is also a virtue, layers of rust on it, the barrel is uneven.

Fighting with these things is a joke with life.

Lu Bing was so angry that he cut down several officials who were in charge of the treasury. Killed someone, and he was also cool.

"What can we do about this, the weapons are useless, in case I attack the city, what can we do?" Lu Bing was in a hurry.

Tang Yi was also speechless at the decay of the Ming army, and he gritted his teeth.

"Lu Taibao, I am afraid that the artillery and firearms cannot be counted on, at most they can scare and scare people. I'll draw a drawing right away, you find the officials of the Ministry of Works, and rush to work overnight, remember to be sure to supervise well, and there will definitely be no problems. ”

What Tang Yi taught Lu Bing was, it was ashamed to say that it was just a simple stone thrower.

With the development of artillery, this weapon has gradually become obsolete, and it is ironic that it is necessary to resurrect it at this time to defend the capital. There is nothing difficult about the stone thrower, and the drawings given by Tang Yi are simplified to the extreme.

It was just a wooden shelf, with a log horizontally, a groove at one end of the long handle, which was loaded with ammunition, and a stone with a counterweight tied to the end of the short handle, and when used, as long as the straw rope was cut and the weight fell, the ammunition would be ejected. It is not much more complicated than the wooden shelves used to dig stones in the salt iron pond.

The Ministry of Engineering quickly took out the sample, Tang Yi felt that the effect was not bad after testing, twenty catties of stones can be thrown out of one hundred and twenty or thirty steps on the flat ground, and if it is placed on the city wall, it is estimated that it can be hit more than one hundred and fifty steps.

Faced with this simple toy-like thing, Lu Bing kept scratching his head.

"I said Xingzhi nephew, can we stop joking, what can this thing do?"

Tang Yi smiled, "Lu Taibao, the kid is fighting against the Japanese in the southeast, using bamboo, the things are not delicate and simple, just work, immediately let the Ministry of Industry drive out 2,000 stone throwers, prepare them in the four gates, and then select and send people to be familiar with the operation." ”

"Cheng, you're not afraid, I'm not afraid, but I want to see what tricks you can play!" Lu Bing gritted his teeth and said.

After arranging the stone thrower, Tang Yi was not idle, how could he kill the tartar with stones alone. He immediately swept through the four cities, specially collected jars that could hold about ten catties, cleaned them, and then ran to Wang Gong's factory.

This is the Gunpowder Bureau of the Ming Dynasty, specializing in the production of gunpowder ordnance, although the gunpowder artillery is not good, the inventory of the Gunpowder Bureau is quite a lot.

Tang Yi didn't have the heart to improve any gunpowder formula, but just ordered Jinyiwei to supervise the craftsmen and step up work day and night, and the more produced, the better.

Then Tang Yi found some jars, filled them with gunpowder, plugged them with wooden plugs, and added a fire rope, and the simplest cannonball was ready, put it on the stone thrower, and tested ten in a row, all of which resounded in the sky, and the twenty big fat pigs that were used as targets were blown up to a blur of flesh and blood.

After Lu Bing watched it, he couldn't even slap it together, although this thing is not as powerful as the range of artillery, but it is cheap and convenient, and there is no need to worry about exploding, the soldiers promise to like it.

Who knew that after Tang Yi saw it, he was still not satisfied, he disliked that the power was too small, he actually wanted to run to the Ministry of Industry, got a lot of iron filings, waste nails and the like, and added them to the gunpowder.

……

Looking at the tide-like tartars, the hearts of the soldiers at the head of the city were tightened, and their palms were sweating.

"Charge!"

With Tang Shen's angry shout, the small jar was placed on the groove.

"Ignition!"

The fire rope sparked and burned.

"Launch!"

The soldiers quickly swung their knives, cut the straw ropes, and drew a graceful arc one by one, falling out of the city, and it happened that the southeast wind was blowing, and the farthest "cannonball" was stunned to hit 200 steps and exploded in the air.

Flying fragments, bursts of iron filings, a deafening roar. It was like ten thousand thunderbolts, which fell on the head of the Tartar together.

In an instant, some people were smashed into their brains, their brains were all over the place, some people were penetrated through their bodies, their internal organs flowed out, and there were stumps and broken legs, and those who bled from the seven orifices, and under the shroud of gunsmoke, it was a completely indiscriminate massacre, and in an instant, at least more than 100 Tartars were killed, and another two or three hundred people were injured, and even the horses of many people around me were frightened, and they turned around and fled, and the people turned on their backs, and injured a large number of people by mistake!
