The saber in his hand "clanged" out of the sheath, crossed a silver arc, held it on his chest, and the boots under his feet stomped on the ground, making a sonorous and powerful sound. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Although there was only a thin layer of armor on his body, Jiang Tie's face was already covered with beads of sweat, but the commander of this hundred battles capital did not move at all, just raised the sword in his hand. Behind him, Wu Chucai also made the same move, and the eyes of the two people looked solemnly ahead.

As the war drums rang nine times, Jiang Tie and Wu Chucai, who were motionless, shouted at the same time: "Hundred battles, array!" ”

Thousands of soldiers straightened their waists at the same time, with the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, the hundred battles capital also changed from the previous Tianwu Army to the current Ming Janissary Guard, because to protect Ye Yingwu to fight the world, so the hundred battles are no longer suitable to maintain the scale of five hundred people, and with the entry of the equipped iron cavalry, the number of the hundred battles soon expanded to a thousand, and then because of the southern expedition, expanded to two thousand.

Among the two thousand people, 1,000 are foot soldiers and 1,000 are cavalry, not to mention the scorching heat in Nanyang, and they need to be transported back and forth by sea, so Ye Yingwu only brought one of the foot soldiers, and even this thousand foot soldiers are the only team in the entire Yizhou Naval Division that can go ashore to fight.

That's enough, though.

"Raise your sword, raise your gun!" Jiang Tie then roared.

In unison, the spearmen in the front row slammed their spears on the ground, while the soldiers in the back row drew their swords at the same time. Spears of the same length were like a jungle of steel, and the swords that flashed with cold light dispersed the hot wind blowing on the docks.

"A hundred battles have been lined up, please give an order to Your Highness!" Jiang Tie Huo Ran turned around, looked at Ye Yingwu who was sitting on the high platform, and shouted with his head held high.

Slowly put down the teacup in his hand, Ye Yingwu stood up, the Lord of Bo Ni and the Lord of Japo on his left hand, and the envoys of the Three Buddhas, Zhancheng, Nanpi, Zhulin and other countries on his right side, looked at the solemn array below, and stood up with Ye Yingwu in fear.

Ye Yingwu smiled and glanced at the lords and envoys on the left and right, but these lords and envoys obviously did not have such a good mood as Ye Yingwu, and the smiles on their faces were very reluctant. The strength of the Ming Dynasty, even if you ignore the dense array of warships on the dock in front, this queue of a thousand people alone is enough to make them shock and tremble from the bottom of their hearts.

Sure enough, the prestige of the Celestial Empire is not a false rumor, after three hundred years of stagnation and inaction, the Celestial Empire finally set its sights on Nanyang again, and everything that wants to rebel against him will be what kind of fate will be, these lords and envoys present are extremely transparent in their hearts.

"Let's get started." Ye Yingwu nodded at Jiang Tie and shouted loudly.

Jiang Tie solemnly arched his hand: "No! Please proofread it by Your Highness! ”

The soldiers standing on both sides of the high platform beat the cowhide drum at the same time, and in the sound of the drum, not only the soldiers of the hundred battles marched forward at the same time, but also the roaring drums came from the sea in the distance, and the warships sailed through the sea in two neat queues, the red battle flags on the masts of the warships fluttered in the wind, the white sails all puffed up with the wind, and the bed crossbows and flying thunder cannons on both sides did not move up, but even so, the huge size of these warships and the majestic posture of breaking the waves, It was enough to make all the onlookers feel shocked from the heart.

The boots slammed to the ground, and rows of armor soldiers marched forward with their heads held high, their arms and legs swinging like a neat wave.

Ye Yingwu looked at the hundred battles that were striding through the audience expressionlessly, and didn't care about the already stiffened bodies of the group of country lords and envoys around him. Zhengbu, which was a compulsory training method for the army in later generations, was still unique 700 years ago.

An army that can kick a straight foot will not necessarily fight, but an army that can't kick a straight step will often not be able to defeat an army that can kick a straight step. This is because Zhengbu has brought discipline and obedience to an army, especially in the past 700 years, when the army mainly relied on cold weapons in its operations, and adopted the form of group advance and retreat, the requirements for discipline became stricter.

At that time, when Ye Yingwu entered Lin'an to praise his merits, he once conquered the entire Lin'an City with his positive steps, and now it is placed in the Nanyang of this small country and widows, which is enough for everyone to see the strength of the Ming army. After all, the positive step is the most shocking of all the army posture arrays.

The masculinity that came to his face, with the murderous aura condensed by the bloody battlefield of the generals of a hundred battles, at this moment, whether it was the lords and envoys of the country, or the Nanyang generals and people who watched the ceremony, they all had a deep sense of fear for the behemoth of the Ming Dynasty.

Ye Yingwu chuckled lightly, and nodded without a trace at Wu Chucai, who was looking sideways below.

Wu Chucai understood, and immediately turned around.

When the queue walked to the bottom of the high platform, Wu Chucai roared: "His Royal Highness King Ming, long live, long live, long live!" ”

The queue of thousands of people turned their heads to look at Ye Yingwu at the same time: "His Royal Highness King Ming, long live, long live, long live!" ”

Ye Yingwu took two steps forward and stood solemnly.

The faces of thousands of soldiers were already red, and there was a burning fighting spirit in their eyes.

And on the sea near and far, the shouts of long live like a wave have already rushed to the face.

Ye Yingwu smiled bitterly and shook his head, Zhang Gui and Wang Da are two guys, but they can be people.

At this moment, Xiao Yangzi ran up quickly and handed the unopened letter in his hand to Ye Yingwu: "Your Highness, the news from the Zhenla Clipper, the battle report from the frontline." ”

Ye Yingwu was slightly stunned, and the surrounding lords and envoys subconsciously set their eyes on the letter. After all, for them, hearing is false, seeing is believing, even if the military power shown in front of them by the Ming Dynasty is enough to make them surrender, but after all, the strongest in the entire Nanyang except for the Ming Dynasty is Zhenla, before the Ming Dynasty shows the ability to defeat Zhenla, these small countries, the best choice is to be a wall grass swaying in the wind.

With a sneer, Ye Yingwu took the dagger handed over by Xiao Yangzi without hesitation, pried the fire paint open, and the thin letter paper slipped into his hand.

Just a hasty glance, Ye Yingwu casually threw the letter to the several lords next to him whose heartbeats had accelerated, sat back in the chair, shook his head and sighed: "The two great victories only wiped out more than 20,000 people in Zhenla, and the Xuanwu Army and the Shenwei Army were quite disappointed this time." ”

"Your Highness," the Lord of the Boni Kingdom hurriedly said in a respectful voice, but he immediately realized something, and took the letter with trembling hands, "What······ What the? More than 20,000 people were wiped out in two wars?! ”

All the lords and envoys reacted at this moment, and they involuntarily slowly knelt on the ground. What is Zhenla, it is the first power in Nanyang, especially when it was invaded by Zhancheng, this country that has not yet developed has the ability to fight back, not to mention the return of Zhancheng, but also swallowed the whole family, and now it is even more in full swing, with 100,000 armor and 200,000 war elephants, is this an empty number? !

The Three Buddhas, located in the south of Zhenla, are usually courteous to this huge country, and the Three Buddhas are already the most powerful among the countries here.

And this Da Ming turned out to be ······ It turned out that there were two great victories just after marching, and there was even one that was ambushed and then fought back, are these people from the Heavenly Empire really all iron!

At this time, the queue under the high platform had turned around, and the warships on the sea had also returned to their original positions, Ye Yingwu's fingers gently tapped the armrests of the chair, and said in a deep voice: "Okay everyone, I think you must have seen this ceremony, I don't care what you feel in your hearts, if you want to talk, you can find this Mr. Yixuan behind me, I am tired, so I will go back to rest first." ”

"Congratulations to Your Highness." Liang Yanwu and Xiao Yangzi hurriedly gave up their hands, and Liang Yanwu couldn't help but glance at Ye Yingwu's back, and secretly sighed in his heart, Your Highness is enough to play prestige, and then hand over all the mess to so-and-so, to say that it is good to train subordinates, and to say that it is not good to say that it is to abuse employees!

Those envoys and the lord of the country were a little shocked, obviously they didn't expect Ye Yingwu to say that he would leave, it stands to reason that the one who covets Nanyang shouldn't be His Royal Highness King Ming, could it be that at this time he suddenly realized that Nanyang is actually just a place at his fingertips?

There was a shudder in his heart, and the lords and envoys of these small countries who were prostrate on the ground didn't dare to look up at Ye Yingwu, but their eyes fell on the paper on the ground, and at this moment, the fluttering page seemed to have a thousand weights in everyone's hearts.

————————————————————

"Now that we have called these lords and envoys together, and specially re-sent the war report that was delivered the day before yesterday, spread out such a big scene, and put on a good show, why don't you talk to them?" Zhao Yunshu carefully peeled off the mango and handed it to Wei'er next to him, and said without raising his head.

Ye Yingwu snorted, tore off his coat casually, and the whole person collapsed on the soft couch: "It's almost hot to death your husband, this outfit is worn on the body, almost not soaked, if those guys from the Ministry of Rites are here, they have to stare at a certain person to change into the crown of the Son of Heaven, and then the twelve will be pressed on the head, and then wrapped in such a thick dragon robe, what is the difference between it and a sauna!" ”

Zhao Yunshu wiped the mango juice from his hands, and said helplessly: "Okay, don't complain from here, even if it's such a life, I'm afraid there are many people who yearn for it." ”

Some bored took a mango on the plate, the mango in Nanyang is indeed better than that in Guangnan, this Ye Yingwu has to admit it, and in this era, Nanyang is his own, and it has nothing to do with family hatred and national hatred, this mango can be eaten without conscience.

"You ask why you threw so many people right there." Ye Yingwu blinked, and said unhurriedly, "I went here today, not to negotiate any conditions with them, because-with such a report of victory, plus the sailor and the hundred battles have been pulled up and taken around, do you think these guys are still qualified to negotiate terms with a certain person?" ”

Twisting up the fruit knife, the shadow of the knife in Ye Yingwu's hand flew over, three times and five divided by two to cut the two pieces of pulp, and in a moment he cut the tic-tac-toe on the pulp, turned the peel over, and handed it to Zhao Yunwei and Hui Niang, who were almost dazzled next to him, and then put down the knife, clapped his hands, and looked at Zhao Yunshu provocatively.

Although I haven't seen a mango for more than a year, let alone cut it, after all, it is a technique that I have been practicing for a long time, and this knife technique is fast, accurate and ruthless, and it doesn't flow juice afterwards. Even if it's rusty, it's better than you stupid girl who spent half a day peeling off one.

Raising his eyebrows, Zhao Yunshu walked over with a smile, squatted down on the side of the soft couch, and stretched out his hand to gently beat Ye Yingwu's legs: "The husband is tired today, the concubine is beating your legs, and the husband can lie down and rest." ”

"Sister, you ······" Zhao Yun swallowed the mango in his mouth with great difficulty, and just wanted to speak, but was grabbed by Hui Niang.

"Be quiet!" Hui Niang chewed on the fine dried mango and pointed to the front, "Watch the play." ”

Sure enough, before Zhao Yunwei could answer, he heard Ye Yingwu exclaim: "You crazy woman, you can twist it again!" Murder of your own husband! ”

"Sister Huiniang, we ······" Wei'er was a little hesitant.

Hui Niang waved her hand, lying on the soft couch and just wanted to close her eyes and sleep for a while, when she heard a loud "poof" sound from the pond next to her.

————————————————————————

"Tell Yang Bao and Li Shuzhang that victory is not arrogant, defeat is not discouraged, and you must not underestimate the enemy." Ye Yingwu floated on the water on his back, the water in this pond is a clear spring on the island mountain that is directly drawn, not to mention cool, and the water quality is very good, the sun is clear, the shadow cloth is on the stone, as if the small stone pond in Yongzhou is reappearing.

Liang Yanwu, who was standing respectfully next to the pond, hurriedly responded, but immediately said: "Your Highness, it is inevitable not to underestimate the enemy, but Your Highness also has to consider that we can't be involved in too much energy by this South Sea, after all, the opponent of the Ming Dynasty is still Mongolia, if Mongolia is really restored, I'm afraid that all the efforts of this year will be in vain." ”

Ye Yingwu was slightly stunned and nodded: "It makes sense, although I know that these two guys will not be passive and slack off, but after all, they are both calm by nature, and it is not impossible for me to drag on from here for a year, in this way, tell the two of them to calm Zhenla before the end of the year, between these three months, no matter what they do, I will not interfere, even if they bask in the sun for two months, I don't care about them when they get up and work in the last month, but in the end, what I want to see is a Zhenla full of Ming military flags." ”

Liang Yanwu asked with some surprise: "Isn't Your Highness planning to start the Northern Expedition in the spring, if Zhenla can be pacified by the end of the year, the transportation of grain and grass and military salaries to and from may be difficult to support the Northern Expedition of the army, after all, this southern expedition, poor mountains and bad waters, we don't get much of the existing benefits, but consume a lot of grain and grass, medicine and gunpowder arrows." ”

"The Northern Expedition may as well be delayed." Ye Yingwu said in a deep voice, "After all, between the Southern Expedition and the Northern Expedition, I still think that the Southern Expedition is a top priority, once we can't solve Zhenla, this guy who is known as the 'No. 1 Power in the South China Sea' will inevitably cause trouble behind our backs, and when the time comes, where will the energy come from to turn around and deal with them. Therefore, I would rather delay the moment of the Northern Expedition than pacify the South Seas······ At the very least, in the event of any sudden war, Nanyang can act as a buffer. ”

Liang Yanwu exhaled lightly, Ye Yingwu's worries were not unreasonable, after all, the Northern Expedition of the Ming Dynasty was the top priority, but a dynasty can stand here, and more importantly, it is more important to ensure its prestige and strength among the common people and officials.

And Ye Yingwu couldn't help but sigh in his heart, although Liang Yanwu was a good staff, but after all, he was from a humble background, and the highest official position he had done before was only a minor official in Lin'an, not even an official, so he was still a little worse in terms of the overall situation.

"What is the attitude of the Nanyang countries?" Ye Yingwu squinted his eyes and said lightly.

Liang Yanwu hurriedly bowed his hand: "Your Highness, except for Bo Ni, who has already surrendered to the land, the rest of the countries have said that they will always be vassals of the Ming Dynasty, and as long as Your Highness is sent, you should serve Your Highness." ”

"They know each other." Ye Yingwu sighed with emotion, "It's okay, after all, you can't deceive people too much, it's true that Nanyang is a good place, but once these monkeys are annoyed, they can still become a muddy quagmire that is difficult to get out of, so we don't need to be in a hurry to annex these countries, but we can't just cheap them." ”

"What does Your Highness mean?" Liang Yanwu was stunned.

Stretching out three fingers, Ye Yingwu said lightly: "First, send capable generals to help these countries train their armies, and instill in them the idea of the supremacy of the Great Tomorrow Dynasty during training; second, to select high-quality talents from various countries, send them to Nanjing Academy for special education, and then release them back to serve as officials in various places; Third, the stationing of elite and heavy troops in the choke points of various waterways in the South Seas serves as a source of influence and surveillance on these countries. ”

Liang Yanwu hurriedly wrote on the paper, and Ye Yingwu thought about it, and then said: "What we want to instill in them is not the idea of making the country rich and strong and fighting for the country, but ······ Life is not equal, Nanyang people are inferior people compared to the Ming Dynasty, only through the dedication of their own labor, can they achieve the same status as the Ming people, before this, their identity, are lowly slaves. ”

His hand shook violently, and Liang Yanwu looked up at Ye Yingwu, but Ye Yingwu closed his eyes, as if he had fallen asleep. (To be continued.) )
