Chapter 90 is flat in an instant
Li Dynasty.
"With these muskets and artillery weapons, the army of the Southern Dynasties is nothing more than a chicken and a dog, they are now taking care of themselves, the emperor is waiting for work, they will lose this battle, and when they are frustrated and retreat, I will take advantage of the victory to pursue again, maybe they can attack and plunder." Li Mubai returned to China, and he was shouting proudly at the moment.
Li Shi listened to his sycophants unknowingly.
The weapons sent by Manjinga were nothing more than some arquebuses and arquebuses, these unseen earthen buns, and they thought they were artifacts.
As soon as Annan almost crossed Liangshan, there was no road to go, and the miasma shrouded it did cause a lot of trouble to Wang Shouren's army.
Fortunately, Zhu Houzhao explained in the secret edict that the miasma of smoke generated by rotten leaves is no longer a trouble, not only that, but they would never have thought that the speed of the army marching at night is the same as that during the day, and a few days earlier, they will be able to surround the dragon.
The Li clan arrogantly thought that the shrinking army would fight a decisive battle in Thang Long City, which was no different from a self-defeating situation, just enough for Wang Shouren to come to an urn to catch turtles.
Five days later.
"Report, Zhu Xianfeng has found the Li reinforcements fifty miles away from Thang Long City, and killed three Li reinforcements to clear the way for our army."
Seven days later.
"Report, Zhu Xianfeng has reached Shenglong for ten miles, and found a 3,000 Li cavalry from the seaside, all of which have been wiped out."
Ten days later.
"Zhu vanguard soldiers surround the dragon."
Wang Shouren led the army, and at this time, it was also fifty miles away.
"The air power goes first, supports the vanguard battalion, does not let go of a single person in the city, strictly guards to the death, generals, listen to orders."
Wang Shouren's eyes gradually became serious, pointed in the direction of Thang Long City, and said sharply: "Dinner, General Ben and everyone here are sharing in the city. ”
"Whoa."
These days, the atmosphere in Thang Long City is not only not urgent, but also quite active, from the emperor to the subjects, all of them are full of fighting spirit, as if they have been beaten with chicken blood.
Looking at the thirty cannons, plus five thousand arquebuses, everyone was not immersed in excitement, the weapons of the Ming Dynasty, they also have them now, who are afraid of coming, it feels like the whole world is already theirs.
The cannon of the Royal Manufacturing Bureau is no longer the kind of cannon in the traditional sense, it used to be a little bulky, although it has been improved after Zhu Houzhao's guidance, and the lightest is more than 500 pounds, which is simply cumbersome in a place like Annan.
So when Zhu Houzhao put down Wang Shouren's rebellion in Guizhou, he set out to come up with a more portable mountain cannon, which was different from the simple version of the shoulder-mounted cannon barrel he made, this kind of back-firing mountain cannon was more suitable for mountain combat, not only lightweight, but also suitable for long-range strikes.
And the power is huge, it blooms on the ground, you don't need to be on the right head, as long as hundreds of doors are fired together, it is a proper dimensionality reduction blow, it's really crazy.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, Wang Shouren's army also converged with Zhu Youlu's vanguard battalion.
The army was repaired in place for an hour.
At this moment, no one in Thang Long City found anything abnormal, ten miles away from them, it had been besieged by an army of 150,000, in fact, it was clear that only 5,000 modern elite soldiers were needed to set foot in Ping'annan.
Why did Zhu Houzhao still want Grandpa Mu and Zhu Jianze, as well as Wang Shouren to bring 150,000 horses here, the purpose is actually self-evident.
He took a fancy to this place, which has a climate suitable for growing all kinds of crops, and this alone has a reason for Zhu Houzhao to take this place.
Wang Shouren is definitely going back to Beijing, Zhu Houzhao can't use him in the military all year round, this is a talent, so at the beginning, he was ready to let Zhu Jianze stay here, and the fief would also be here. But Zhu Jianze died.
had to choose someone else, then the Mu family in Yunnan is a good substitute, the Mu family will stay to run Annan, the 150,000 army seems to be too much, in fact, in Zhu Houzhao's view, there is still less.
It is easy to conquer a place, but it is not so easy to govern, not only to face the frequent rebellion of the Annamite people, but also to calm the people's hearts.
When he sent Wang Shouren here, he thought of this, so Wang Shouren would stay here for a period of time and become the ideological educator of the Ming Dynasty in Annan to educate Annan.
As for Zhu Youqi, Zhu Houzhao has his own arrangements, this is the eldest son of the loyal Chongwang Yan, and he can't miss the benefits.
Shen Shi.
Wang Shouren gave an order, and the air and ground troops roared in unison with a burst of artillery fire.
The army of Annam, who was still unvigilant, only saw strange things in the sky that were suddenly dense and showed traces from the clouds.
Looking at the sky, I forgot to react for a moment.
Until....
Boom Boom Boom !!
An earth-shattering explosion sounded, the mountains shook, and the severed limbs and stumps flew sideways, and they cried for their fathers and mothers.
"The Ming army is coming, the Ming army is coming."
Emperor Li was still enjoying the compliments of his ministers in the palace, enjoying the singing and dancing, and enjoying the food.
The loud bang without warning shocked everyone.
"What's going on?"
"Report."
"It's not good, the emperor, the Ming army, the Ming army is here."
Emperor Li was terrified, it was only a short month since he announced that he was the emperor, and the Ming army's reaction was so fast.
The ministers looked at the guard in horror and let out exclamations of disbelief.
"How is it possible, Ming Army, did Ming Army fly from the sky?" Li Mubai said in a panic.
At this moment, he knew how terrible the Ming army was.
The sound of explosions in the city was incessant, and the palace was shaken.
The guard said in horror: "The Ming army appeared from the sky, dense, many, many." ”
When Li Mubai heard this, he immediately thought of something, hurriedly ran out of the hall, looked up, and immediately collapsed to the ground coldly, raised his hand to the sky, and made a gurgling movement in his throat, unable to say a word for a long time.
Emperor Li hurriedly ran out with his ministers, looking at Li Mubai's frightened look pointing to the sky, they couldn't help but look up.
Suddenly, the ministers gasped, and the Ming army really flew over from the sky.
"Your Majesty, the Ming army is too strong, let's go, the imperial city can't hold it." There were loyal ministers of the Lai clan who shouted.
The heaven and earth were flipped in front of him, and his so-called powerful weapons, before they had time to exert their power, were blown into vain under the blow of the Ming army, turning into scrap copper and rotten iron.
This huge contrast between before and after once made everyone at a loss, the Ming army was too strong, and it was not something they could compete with at all.
The Li clan established himself as the emperor, it was simply self-defeating, and the ministers with sinister motives immediately turned gloomy, if the Li clan ran away, what should they do?
No, we must not let the Li family get away with it, otherwise, I will die and have no place to be buried.
Some people secretly looked at each other, and after having a tacit understanding, they quietly approached Li Shi.
Once this idea arises, it is irrepressible, if you don't do it, you won't do it, if you want to do it, you will do it, and let the Ming army see their sincerity, so that you can get a glimmer of life.
The city wall of Thang Long, under the fierce artillery fire of Wang Shouren's army, was just a stick of incense, and this once impregnable city wall collapsed and disappeared.
A fierce roar of slaughter rang out in the city.
"Those who offend my great tomorrow will be destroyed immediately, and the Li clan will be punished for their rebellion."
"Kneel on the ground and don't kill, and those who resist the soldiers of the Great Tomorrow will not be killed."
"Kill..."
Listening to this urging voice, and the terrible screams in the city, they knew that it was over, it was completely over, a month, just a month, and the world was turned upside down.
I knew this was the case, so why bother in the first place.
Li Shi wailed in his heart, Annan is finished.
"Your Majesty, let's go, it's too late to hesitate." There is a minister urging.
Li Shi reacted, glanced at it unwillingly, and shouted: "Go." ”
But now it's too late to leave, and the mutation is prominent.
The guards and ministers around him drew their swords one after another, killed him, and shouted angrily: "The Li clan rebelled against the Ming Dynasty, arrogantly proclaimed the emperor, and the wolf's ambition caused the destruction of my Annan's century-old foundation, and I am a sinner in Annan, don't let him go, catch him, and dedicate it to the Ming Dynasty, my Annan still has a glimmer of life." ”
Hearing him shout like this, someone suddenly woke up and joined the civil unrest.
Seeing the shouts of killing in the city, getting closer and closer to the palace, the ministers did not hesitate any longer, each drew his sword and held his sword, and killed the Li side.
"You, you..." Li Shi looked at these ministers who were still praising themselves just now in horror.
Now he is killing himself like a wolf and a tiger, looking like he can't eat his flesh and sleep on his skin, this is really his good courtier.
There are rebels who want to arrest the Li family, and naturally there are also loyal ministers, who also drew their swords to protect the Li family, and shouted: "The emperor is leaving, I will swear to protect the emperor to the death and kill." ”
Li Mubai is one of them, he is a diehard loyalist of the Li family, and at this time, he naturally has to stand up and protect the Li family.
But the loyal people still don't rebel much, after all, no one wants to die.
Li Mubai, the culprit, is the one who bewitched the Li family, from beginning to end, he is the most damned thief of this courtier.
"Take him down and dedicate it to Daming, it's a great achievement, and the others go to capture the rest of the Li clan, and don't let anyone go." Someone shouted.
Before the Li clan could escape from the palace gate, it was taken down, how could Li Mubai and a few other ministers be the opponents of the military generals, didn't they even see that they were the relatives of the national uncle?
Li Mubai was finally captured, and the entire Li clan was captured, and no one escaped, and was escorted to the gate of the palace.
"The criminal minister, Zheng Ting, meet the Ming Shangguan, this time the rebellious Ming sinners, members of the Li clan, the traitor Li Mubai, etc., were all taken down by the criminal ministers and others, dedicated to Shangguan, the criminal ministers wish the Ming long live, long live, long live."
The ministers behind Zheng Ting shouted in unison.
Wang Shouren rode on a horse, with a sword at his waist, wearing a black armor and red silk armor, and walked out majestically, looking at the Li clan with a face like ashes, he said calmly: "With your little Annan, the land of projectiles, you dare to rebel and claim the emperor, Li Shi, you still have something to say." ”
Li Shi slowly raised his head, looking at the neat appearance of the army in front of him, and the Ming army did not even stain his clothes with blood after killing, he knew that this army was terrible.
He also accepted the cruel reality, calmly looked at the commander of the Ming army in front of him, and said, "I have nothing to say." ”
"Bold, presumptuous."
Zheng Ting was suddenly frightened by his words, and shouted angrily.
Syllable.
Raising your hand is a slap in the face.
Li Shi did not resist, nor did he hide, he has his pride, and he can be called a king or a loser.
It doesn't matter if Zheng Ting instigates him to slap him.
"Take it down, guard it, and escort it into Beijing tomorrow with good news." Wang Shouren commanded very calmly.
The army of the Ming Dynasty did not cheer, nor did it have the joy of stepping on a country, and the whole army did not even have the excitement it should have, some were just calm, as if it was just ordinary to set foot in the south of Ping'an.
It seems that Zhu Houzhao's political and ideological counseling in the military is still very useful.
Wang Shouren looked at Grandpa Mu, as well as Zhu Youluo, and said with a smile.
"Annan has just returned, and I still need two helpers to do my best in the future, wait for the emperor's will."
