Chapter 32 The City Is Full of Bandits

Zhu Yuanzhang's explanation, in fact, can be said to be full of loopholes, but many times, when people do something, the so-called reason is actually more of an excuse, a reason to make up one's mind or to deceive oneself is enough.

Naturally, it is impossible for Zhu Yuanzhang to be the only one who spread rumors, and the hundred Mingjiao disciples who entered the city in the early days and were responsible for raising prices had already spread to the entire Yuan Capital under Yang Xiao's arrangement.

For the hungry people in the current Yuan Capital City, who have no hope in sight, this imperfect reason has become the last fuse that detonates their sanity.

The contradiction between the Mongols and the Han people has been formed as early as a hundred years ago when the Song Dynasty fell, these hundred years, the Mongols have been reckless in their military force, and they have wantonly exploited the Han people under their rule, without caring about the life and death of the Han people.

Now, this last fuse has been ignited, the flame buried deep in the heart, under the urging of despair and panic, has been stimulated in advance, turned into a raging flame, and quickly spread to every corner of the Yuan capital with the momentum of a prairie fire, at this time, even if the Mongolian court reacts, it can't be stopped, not to mention, those Mongolian rulers who think they are high above don't feel that they have anything wrong, because at this moment, their state is not good, and even many Mongolian nobles are like those people outside, there is no food, They are still hungry, how can they care about the life and death of those Han untouchables.

As a result, a beautiful misunderstanding created by Li Xuan, with the cooperation of the Mongolian rulers, finally ushered in a fruitful fruit.

"County Lord, it's not good!" Zhao Min, who was full of depression, had just returned to the palace to rest for a while, and was about to go to Wan'an Temple when the housekeeper suddenly ran over in a hurry and shouted at Zhao Min with a worried face.

Dai frowned slightly, a little dissatisfied with the housekeeper's gaffe, suppressed the anger in his heart, Zhao Min asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"It's messy! It's messy! It's all messed up! ”

The housekeeper said three times in a row, but he didn't say what was going on, which made Zhao Min even more dissatisfied, frowning and shouting: "Enough, what's the mess?" Explain to me what is going on. ”

"Yes." The housekeeper was snorted by Zhao Min, sobered up a lot, and said with a bitter face: "On the contrary, county lord, the whole city is in chaos, everyone is crazy, those lowly Han people don't know what medicine they have taken wrong, and suddenly they don't want to attack us, as long as it is a Mongol, they will be attacked by them." ”

"What!" A flash of horror flashed in Zhao Min's eyes, and the most worrying thing in his heart finally happened, and he hurriedly asked, "What about my father and brother!?" ”

"The prince and the prince have already led troops to quell the rebellion at this moment, the county lord, the prince said before leaving, let you come back, take all the masters in the palace, and hurry to the palace to defend the holy car, there must be no mistake." The butler hissed, and as he spoke, he could already hear the shouts and roars coming from outside, as well as the sound of weapons colliding and screaming.

"Damn it!" Zhao Min hammered the table with hatred, Huo Ran got up, and said decisively: "Immediately gather all the family members in the mansion, the maidservants, and all of them to pick up weapons for me, notify the second elder of Xuan Ming and Master Ku, and come over immediately." ”

Yuandu, Imperial Palace

Above the court, the Mongolian emperor at this time was the fifteenth emperor after Genghis Khan, looking at the civil and military ministers in the court, who were full of panic, and suddenly felt a wave of anger surging upward, and looked at the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty with cold eyes, and said coldly: "Everyone, who can sue sΓΉ me, what is going on?" Why did the people of the Manchu Dynasty suddenly rebel, and who can tell me now, what should I do!? ”

In the face of the emperor's cold gaze, the Manchu civil and military lowered their heads one by one, not daring to collide with the emperor's gaze, and only a few people were unmoved.

"Uncle Seven Wang, tell me what you think?" Seeing that no one replied, the emperor was even more angry in his heart, looked at the silent Seventh Prince, his face softened a little, and asked in a deep voice.

"Your Majesty, the people of the city rebelled, because now in the Yuan capital, the grain and grass are empty, these people have no food to eat, so they dare to risk the world's disapproval, openly against my court, according to the ministers, the only way to do it now is to take out the remaining grain and grass in the treasury first, and distribute it to these people, with food, these people will naturally not risk their lives again, and go against my court, and in addition, they will transfer grain and grass from the surrounding towns, which has been filled with the treasury." The Seventh Prince stood up and said slowly.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks it's inappropriate." A strong Mongolian man dressed as a military general came out of the ranks, bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, those Diao people rebelled, no matter what the reason, it is a big crime, if we open a warehouse to release grain, how can the majesty of my Great Mongolian Empire remain?" Moreover, now that there is a shortage of food and grass in the city, and there is not enough to supply our Mongolian warriors, where can I get the surplus food for these Diao people, and the ministers think that we should use thunderous means to exterminate these Diao people, so that these lowly Han people know the majesty of our Great Mongol Empire, and they cannot be offended! ”

In the eyes of these people, they are also victims of the change in grain prices, and even many of the ministers present are because the grain was sold too fiercely some time ago, and at the moment the family can't open the pot, all rely on the relief of the imperial court, and now they want to distribute the grain, which is hundreds of thousands of mouths, although they say that they can endure for a few days, and after the grain and grass in the surrounding cities are mobilized, they don't have to starve anymore, but they are Mongolians, why should they use their grain to please those Han people?

In the final analysis, this is the most important reason, the Mongols are arrogant and arrogant, for a hundred years to intimidate the world, and their prestige has even radiated to the entire Eurasian continent, so fierce, they have always been the only ones who take what they want from the Han people, but now they want to let them starve, take out the food that belongs to them to distribute to those Han people, for a hundred years have been accustomed to treating the Han people as ants, grass mustard, for them, this is to provoke the dignity and glory of all Mongolians.

"General Huchier, do you know how many people in the city are involved in the rebellion right now? How many defenders are there in Dadu today? The Seventh Prince looked at the military general with cold eyes, and said in a cold voice: "Most of them have a population of 800,000, and almost all of them participated in the rebellion, but our defenders only have 50,000 or 800,000 people, have you killed them cleanly?" ”

"Hmph." Hu Chier sneered and said: "Back then, Genghis Khan swept the entire steppe with an army of less than 20,000 people, and even destroyed the Song Dynasty in one fell swoop and established our Great Mongolian Empire, the enemy is more than a million, and now it is only 800,000 hungry and crazy, unarmed Han people, even if there are only 50,000 Mongolian warriors, it is enough to kill these damned Han people, the Seven Princes, is it not all these years of glory and wealth, let you forget the pride of being a descendant of Genghis Khan?" I believe that even if Genghis Khan is reborn, he will never tolerate these lowly Han Chinese offending the majesty of our Great Mongol Empire! We will not tolerate our noble warriors of the Mongol Empire to compromise with these ignorant Han Chinese! ”

"Yes, General Huchier is right, we must not compromise!" Many generals have responded to the peace, and with the response of these people, more and more generals and even civil servants have joined the ranks.

The Seventh Prince looked at Hu Chi'er, a fierce light flashed in his eyes, but he didn't say anything more, silently retreated to his position, and said no more.

"Well, in that case, Huchier, from now on, all the armies in the Imperial City, except for the forbidden army, will be under your command, and all the traitors, those who refuse to submit...... Kill! Kill! Kill! Looking at the excited ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, the emperor finally made the most 'wise' decision and said sharply.

"Your Majesty, rest assured, the ministers will let these damned people know the majesty of my Great Mongolian Empire, they have enjoyed peace under the protection of my Great Mongolian Empire for too long, it seems that they have forgotten the power of my Mongolian warriors, and the ministers will let them recall the soldiers of my Mongolian Empire!" After Hu Chi'er bowed down to receive the order, he glanced at the Seventh Prince proudly, and strode towards the outside of the hall.

Looking at Hu Chi'er's back, a sneer flashed in the eyes of the Seventh Prince, in fact, the situation is not as grim as he said before, the food shortage in the capital is only temporary, but in just two or three days, those who are really said to participate in the rebellion are actually far from the point where the city is full of bandits, but with the emperor's order, I am afraid that this capital city will really be full of bandits.

"Retreat!"

The eunuch's shrill voice sounded, the emperor's figure had disappeared, and the seventh prince watched the emperor leave the palace with cold eyes, and the corners of his mouth suddenly flashed a sneer, this time, he wanted to take this opportunity to make the emperor lose his hopes and lose his throne!

With the emperor's order, the Mongol army, which had been guarding the barracks, was like a tiger out of a cage, under the command of generals at all levels, launched a counterattack.

For many years, I have been accustomed to the Han people groveling in front of them, when did they think that the Han people would dare to openly attack the Mongol military camp, these Mongolian soldiers, who had long been holding back a fire in their hearts, after strangling the chaotic people blocking the barracks like a whirlwind, they ferociously pounced on the people in the city.

These people don't care whether you have participated in the rebellion or not, as long as you are a Han Chinese, you will be mercilessly killed by the Mongols, and even many Mongolian soldiers have taken this opportunity to vent their animal desires on the Han women in the city, and the human tragedies continue to be staged in every corner of the Yuan capital, more and more people who are unwilling to be humiliated have joined the ranks of the rebels, and these people who have maintained their sanity have finally given up the last hope for the Mongols in the face of the tragic human tragedy.

Not only did the rebellion not ease with the suppression of the Mongol army, but intensified, the Mongols were invincible, but in this city, there was no room for these Mongol knights to detour, and the cavalry that lost their mobility was even inferior to an infantry, although it was still far stronger than these unarmed civilians, but under the surging crowd, one by one the Mongol soldiers were immediately pulled down by the crowd, and they were instantly overwhelmed by the crowd.

The people who lost their homes picked up the weapons dropped by the Mongols and frantically pounced on the fierce Mongol warriors.
