Chapter 43, Section 3, Nanning Pass Military Exercise
In March 1876 of the mainland calendar, the joint military exercise at Nanning Pass began, with Vice Admiral Li Fei as the commander-in-chief, and Long Feng and I also went to Nanbo Bay in the coastal area, accompanied by Huo Wu.
In order to avoid casualties in the pass, we had to blast the city gate open and then land for the operation, and the Tufan Marine Corps was led by Zhong Bao, who was already a colonel in the army, and his cultivation had reached the seventh level of breaking through the Xuan Realm. The Marine Corps of the Water Rou Country is led by me personally, I don't want accidents, with me, the probability of failure is 1 in 10,000.
In the early morning of 8 March, six battleships lined up, 36 guns were already equipped with sufficient ammunition, and 20 troop transports followed. Five kilometers from Nanning Pass, 50,000 ground troops are ready to go, and there are also sufficient logistical personnel to ensure food supplies and ammunition delivery.
The sky gradually brightened, Li Fei gave an order, more than a dozen artillery pieces were fired in unison, Nanning closed the flames, and the noise became louder and louder, mixed with the roars and wails of people.
Nanning closed the main gate, five artillery rounds bombarded, Nanning Pass gate collapsed, and some people in the city shouted: "Guard the city gate, guard the city gate." ”
The ground troops of Shuirou followed up, the bazookas were fired, the shells flew in from the city gate and wailed, the pistol battalion gradually entered the city, and the city gate was controlled by a round of point shooting, and by noon, Jiao Xingui had been sent to me by the five flowers.
Li Fei's fleet did not stop at Nanning Pass, but went fifty miles south to Linhai City in the Flame Country, and after a round of artillery fire, the generals defending the city abandoned the city and fled, and the five thousand elite marines landed from Linhai Port and quickly took control of Linhai City.
At this time, I was at the temporary headquarters of Nanning Pass.
I looked at Jiao Xingui and said, "General Jiao, Emperor Mu Xifeng of Annam treated you well back then, why did you take refuge in foreign clans?" ”
Jiao Xingui looked lonely: "Your Excellency must be the national teacher, only blame me for the fear of the defeat of Annan and the implication of my family, so I moved all my family into Nanning Pass, I never wanted to be taken advantage of by the Moon God Sect and took away my family, for the sake of my family of fifteen, I chose to surrender, I already knew that there is today, as long as the national teacher is willing, it is easy to take my life, I only hope that the country can read the sake of my garrison at the border for so many years, and leave a trace of incense for my Jiao family." ”
I sighed, "I see, who is in charge of the Luna Sect now?" Are there still many believers? ”
Jiao Xingui replied: "I heard that Lord Yin Tan said that it is now presided over by Lord Zhanliang,"
I didn't understand: "You explain clearly, tell me everything you know, and I will consider your children." ”
Jiao Xingui's spirit perked up: "Lord Yin Tan is the altar master of the Sun and Moon Altar of the Yandu General Altar, Lord Zhan Liang is the guest of the Lord of Qishuo, it is said that the Lord of Qishuo and the Master of the Nine Shadows are good friends, the last time Lord Yin Xiang was drunk, he said that the Lord of Qishuo is ready to cooperate with the Moon God Sect to regain the throne of his ancestors." ”
I let out an "oh" and said, "Is this throne his?" ”
Jiao Xingui continued: "Back then, Taizu's legacy, brother and brother, so Taizu's younger brother Taizong succeeded to the throne, and later Taizong never returned the throne to Taizu, but changed to a hereditary system, and set up the eldest son as the prince, passed down from generation to generation, so Prince Qishuo was dissatisfied and vowed to regain Taizu's foundation. ”
I nodded slowly, this is very similar to the Great Song Dynasty on the earth! Even the name of Taizu Taizong is the same, only the previous Song character is missing, but the change of the throne is much the same, and such a situation is also common.
