Chapter 395: Very bloodthirsty
And they are very bloodthirsty, they specially drill into the wound, the cross that has just been pulled out of the leg, which will be bleeding, which really attracts the favor of small insects, and when they see the blood hole, they will drill into it, and the bite will pierce the heart.
Many soldiers were in a hurry, sitting in the river, with their legs crossed in an attempt to pull the bugs out.
But who knew that this little insect was smoother than a loach, and it couldn't catch it at all, and it screamed in place.
I saw thousands of people throwing away their armor in pain on the shallows and rolling on the ground.
Suddenly there was a sound of killing in the palace.
A squad of elite infantry came out of the palace.
In the face of the Ladakhi soldiers who lost their armor and abandoned their armor, the Guge infantry cut off the heads of the enemy soldiers at the forefront, and the Ladakhi soldiers who had no power to fight back saw their companions being killed, but there was nothing they could do, after all, their legs were bitten by insects, how could they resist, and those who were lightly injured immediately began to flee backwards, and the seriously injured ones kept wailing to avoid the big knives cut by the Guge infantry.
The troops standing on the shore who had not yet crossed the river, seeing that the front army had been beheaded, and that there were still many people sitting in the water scratching their legs and pulling insects on the shallows, immediately rushed up and pushed the soldiers back to try to rescue their comrades who had not yet met the enemy.
But at this moment, the drums of the charge sounded behind him.
The soldiers standing in the Chinese army looked back at the large camp behind them, their eyes full of resentment.
Why is it full of resentment?
A few days ago, although there were not many deaths, but thousands of wounded, according to the rules of the troops, the wounded soldiers should be given preferential treatment, and the two thousand wounded should be sent at least a few hundred people to take care of the retreat.
But the king of Ladakh, who wanted to take the palace as soon as possible, did not have the leisure to take care of those wounded soldiers, and let them fend for themselves in the back mountains, especially those who were burned, and they could not be treated in time, and many people began to develop infections, their skin ulcerated, and it was better to die lying there.
The king of Ladakh, on the other hand, did not allow other troops to send people to take care of them, but sent all his troops to participate in this siege battle.
And at this time, seeing that the former army was bitten by knives and insects in the water, the pain was unbearable, and the Guge infantry in the palace rushed out, cutting melons and cutting vegetables to slaughter the brothers of the former army, the Chinese army should have been rescued, but there was a drumbeat of the charge behind him, where is this human life as human life? Where do you treat soldiers as human beings?
The tripe balloons upstream are still floating downstream, and the worms like ants are still coming downstream, and now they are still charging, isn't it just to die?
As a result, the Chinese army hesitated, although the drums behind them became more and more rapid.
But instead of continuing the charge, they dragged the soldiers in the shallows closer to the shore in an attempt to save them.
Seeing that the Chinese army would not charge, the Overseers in the rear army immediately rushed up with whips and beat the soldiers on the shore, but the soldiers dodged the whips, but still refused to charge.
The Overseer was in a hurry, drew his saber, and beheaded one of the lieutenants of the Chinese army by the river.
This move completely angered the Chinese soldiers, and they only heard a shout: "Sodaliha, Jijizhen." ”。
They began to rebel and began to turn back and slash the Overseers.
When the rear army saw all this, they were also furious, and gradually turned into a mutiny.
More than 10,000 soldiers of the middle and rear armies began to charge in reverse, heading straight for the king's camp.
When the king of Ladakh saw that the troops mutinied and counterattacked the camp, he suddenly panicked.
Hurriedly mounted his horse, and rushed to the back mountain in a panic.
ran out of more than ten miles in one breath, and saw that no one was keeping up, so he took a breath.
An entourage then rode in and stood by to protect the king of Ladakh.
When the king saw that the tide was turning, he was so angry that he took the whip and whipped the horse, and the blood of the horse flowed freely, and he wailed twice, and then lay on the ground, and could not get up again.
The king of Ladakh, Sengnangy, is not tyrannical in his words, he is a very calm and scheming man, but he has a weakness - ruthlessness.
Those who are useful can be used, and those who are useless are discarded, which is his motto as a man.
Just as at the beginning, King Sodafa sent people to collude with him and asked him to lead his troops to attack Guge, promising him a lot of benefits, but when he found that King Sodafa's troops were not strong, he was ready to abandon King Sodafa.
When Tashi Zabad was captured, he took King Sodafa with him.
What are useless people for? For him, it is not at all emotional.
After that, so many soldiers were wounded, with broken legs, broken arms, and burns, and they couldn't go to the battlefield, so they should be discarded and put in a depression in the back mountain, and they would be left to fend for themselves.
Today, although he saw the tragic scene on the shoal, he did not sympathize with the poor soldiers in the slightest, but in order to achieve the goal of the siege, he urged the Overseers vigorously and forced the troops to continue to advance.
His ruthlessness was finally clearly seen by the soldiers.
If dying in battle is still an honor, being injured and abandoned is a soldier's shame.
And for such a ruthless person, if he dies in battle, do you expect him to treat your wife and children well? Dreaming, with such a king, you will die if you fight, and if you don't fight, you will die, it is better to kill you ruthless and cold-blooded guy first.
As a result, the seemingly accidental mutiny and rebellion are actually inevitable, the punishment for the unreasonable.
Senganje himself was mortally wounded by his own hands, but at this time he heard the sound of the troops rushing in his direction.
At this time, there is no need to judge, there is no one of his own, they are all enemies, so they can only continue to run.
Senganjang pulled the guard off his horse, got on the horse and was about to gallop forward, and before he ran, he drew a whip from the guard and scolded: "Ali is a misa, Hani is a big coffee to cut." (Go and get in my way, don't let them catch up)
The guards were about to cry angrily from him, and after the chasing soldiers behind him, you let me block you with my bare hands and alone? Is my life so worthless?
Just listen to "Ahh With a bang, a saber flew from behind him and plunged straight into Sengangje's heart.
Senganje fell to the ground.
When the guard stood in front of the wooden bridge of the palace with Sengnanjie's head in his hand, Chu Fan and his ministers accepted the surrender of the Ladakh troops and welcomed the monks and soldiers who had worked hard in the upper reaches of the shallows into the city.
The battle to defend the royal capital of Guge has officially ended.
Chu Zun Danba was actually not idle in the past few days of the battle to defend the palace.
Except for demolishing the church and building bazookas, nothing in the church was wasted.
Originally, Catholicism was going to develop in the local area, and many crosses were shipped from Europe, ready to be given to believers, who knew that after operating for so long, there were no more than 1,000 believers, so they left a lot of souvenirs.
Chu Fan knew very well that the monks and soldiers outside the city had not fought much, and if they really wanted to do something that should be done inside and outside, those people couldn't do anything.
It's better to let them do handicrafts, so Chu Fan, who quietly left the city, returned to the camp of monks and soldiers outside the city with tens of thousands of crosses.
At first, everyone didn't understand why Chuzundamba asked everyone to sharpen knives with crosses, blow up balloons, and catch ants.
But it wasn't until the last Ladakhi soldiers, who were tormented in the shallows, that they learned that people who couldn't fight still had this purpose.
admired Chu Fan.
On the palace side, at the beginning, the queen handed over the scepter to Chu Fan, and many people were not convinced, and they connected them in private and played to the queen several times, asking to take back the power and not hand over the fate of the palace to an outsider.
But from the first confrontation, everyone shut up.
Later, when they saw Chu Fan's wrist, they were all stunned.
In this battle, the palace lost less than 300 people, and only sacrificed a useless church, which not only withstood tens of thousands of enemy troops, but also obtained the head of the king of Ladakh, Sengnandje, and the god-like operation completely convinced the ministers.
As for the enemy-breaking artifact "Katyusha incendiary cannon." It was the new name Chu Fan gave to the four fireball launchers.
Chu Fan had the idea of developing such a weapon of mass destruction for a long time.
However, due to the immaturity of ironmaking technology in the Ming Dynasty, there was no way to manufacture iron pipes with particularly flat interiors and very high hardness.
As soon as he arrived at the palace this time, he fell in love with the four iron pillars.
The pillar, which was painstakingly transported to Ali from Europe by Catholic missionaries, represents the highest level of ironmaking in Europe at the time.
At this time, Europe was an important time node in the decline of Catholicism and the Renaissance, and people had generally recognized the importance of the development of science and technology, and many people devoted themselves to the study of productive forces.
Although there is still a gap compared to the overall scientific and technological level of the Ming Dynasty, it has surpassed the Ming Dynasty in some individual items, for example, Europe at this time has gradually learned to increase the temperature of ironmaking, adding some special materials to increase the toughness and strength of iron products, as well as glass and other relatively new technologies, which are the Ming Dynasty has not yet had technology.
Yes, although Chu Fan demolished the Catholic church, the contents were not wasted at all.
All the glass was stored, the crosses were pierced, the iron pillars were used to make Katyusha, and the statue of Jesus was taken to the royal palace as a sculpture and placed in the garden.
After bringing the monks into the city, the queen organized the first meeting of ministers and monks.
The topic is very simple, please Mr. Chu Fan to be the king.
Because the former Guge king Tashi Zabad and his younger brother King Sodafa were captured by the king of Ladakh, they did not leave any chance at all, and they were beheaded when they were pulled back, which is really in line with the consistent style of Sengernamgyal.
Now, although the enemy has driven away, the Guge Kingdom is still leaderless.
The Guge Kingdom is said to be two major forces, the imperial court power surrounded by the aristocracy, and the religious power surrounded by the masses.
As a result, the two brothers were originally perfect and controlled the power, but because of mutual suspicion, they eventually committed two crimes, attracting the Ladakh army, and there will be this catastrophe, which shows how terrible the brothers are against each other, and the brothers of the royal family are even more terrible.
Without a political leader and a spiritual leader, Guge saw that he had defeated Ladakh with such a big victory, and there were more than 20,000 troops outside the door.
So the queen and the ministers summed up, how can they also put out a person in power, the throne is still the queen's son, but someone must hold the power.
On the other side, the monks and soldiers are the same, since they defeated the enemy, the monks and soldiers who fled halfway have returned, but their own Dafa King has been killed, this religious leader is not a good one, at this time, there is a powerful person in charge, if you don't want to see Buddhism, and then there is a movement to destroy Buddhism, we can't eat and walk around, so a few old monks discussed, we also have to elect a person to talk to.
Both politics and religion are electing the speaker together, but they coincide and take a fancy to Chu Fan at the same time.
Speaking of which, Chu Fan broke the enemy army and made the first contribution, there is no doubt about it, but everyone also fancied him and their own Xiao Jiujiu.
On the queen's side, the son is still young, if he doesn't want to lose power, there must be someone who can be trusted to take power, but who will be reliable in the palace aristocracy who can't even trust his own brother? No matter which powerful person is allowed to be the minister of life, if you can't keep it, you will turn your face when your wings are hard, and the orphans and widows will not even be able to protect their names at that time. And Chu Fan, in Tibet, has no foundation, no background, and no nepotism, the most important thing is that he shouts to leave all day long, the more you want to go, the more you don't let you go, the more you want to go, the more you want to go, it means that you don't covet the throne of this king, the more I want to use you.
And the queen still has a little selfishness, that is, the edge of the eye. Speaking of which, the Han people do not have the three-dimensional facial features of the Tibetans, they are relatively softer, their skin is slightly whiter, and their behavior is slightly more elegant. Facing a tough guy like Tashi Zabad all the time, he has been tired of it for many years, but he looks at Chu Fan very eye-catching, if he is with such a man all day, wouldn't it be a beautiful thing? If one day he leaves, let him be the king, and my son be the father, and in the future, the throne will be smoothly handed over to my son, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?
On the side of the monks, as soon as the Dharma King died, the five people with the highest status were the four great khenpos and the five people of Zumpadan, and the reason why Chu Fan, a non-monk, could tie for the fifth place was precisely because he saved all the monks in the cave and was grateful to him.
In addition to Chu Fan, these four khenpos are not only the khenpos of Suoda Monastery, which is equivalent to the vice president, but also the temple masters of their respective home monasteries. Each person is in charge of a monastery. According to the reincarnation system of the Gelug sect, although the four khenpos have a high status, they cannot directly hold the leader, after all, you have been reincarnated as another monastery master, what's the matter? Want to be reincarnated?
Then these four Khenpo Jiachu Zun Padan can't become the temple master of Suoda Monastery, and can only find a reincarnated spirit child and train him to grow up, but before this child grows up, who will be in charge?
Five people tied for power? Then there must be a lead, right? It's like the cabinet of the Ming Dynasty, and it has to be divided into a first auxiliary and a second auxiliary or something.
In the end, it was the old monk Jiayang Danzhu who came forward to speak.
Jiayang Danzhu is one of the four major holders of Suoda Temple, and his status is only lower than that of the four great khenpos, and his actual authority is to manage the northernmost Heavenly Temple in Guge, the temple master of Nintendo Temple.
Although the status belongs to the second level, because the old monk is kind-hearted, old, and knowledgeable, he also has a certain prestige.
According to Jiayang Danzhu's meaning, at present, we should immediately find the reincarnated spirit child, and then choose a person with a high status as the spirit child's scripture teacher, take the spirit child in charge of Suoda Temple, and wait for the spirit child to sit on the bed and become an adult, and then pro-government.
Everyone agreed with this proposal, but then Jiayang Danzhu proposed that since all the temples wanted to propagate the Dharma and cultivate spiritual children, in order to be fair to all the temples, it was necessary to choose people other than the four great khenpos and the four great masters as sutra teachers.
Saying this, everyone looked at Chu Fan, who else was there? Isn't this the person with a high status and who is not one of the four great khenpos or the four major champions?
Anyway, whether you Chu Fan wants it or not, all parties have finalized the candidate, and it is you.
In this way, due to the problems of their own interests in all aspects, this foreign Chu Fan was determined to be the regent of the Guge Kingdom and the fourth Suoda Dharma King at this meeting jointly held by the palace and the monks and soldiers, leading the political and religious factions
Chu Fan's luggage was packed, and he was about to take Qin Hong back to the Han District, but he was inexplicably pushed to the highest level of both political and religious factions, making him cry and laugh.
Chu Fan didn't want to be a regent here, let alone a Dharma king, he just wanted to buy a big house, guard his three wives, plant peach trees under the peach blossom nunnery, and then fold flower branches as wine money.
But this will be unbearable to yourself, on this hall, each faction staged an ultimate drama, the little prince bowed to the master, the queen cried bitterly, the monk chanted and did not give way, and so on, scene after scene, Chu Fan repeatedly excused himself, and everyone kept repeatedly.
Originally, those who sought power and usurped the throne generally had to make such a play, they politely refused, everyone retained them, but they couldn't refuse, accepted the will of heaven and the people, and had to ascend the throne.
Who would have thought that Chu Fan really didn't want to do it, but these Tibetans didn't understand, why didn't you want to sit in such a big position? So everyone thought that Chu Fan was acting, okay, since you Chu Fan is acting so seriously, we will cooperate with you, and then I saw the chanting of the entire hall, crying and crying, kneeling and kneeling, so lively.
Gotcha, what's going on? Stay there.
As a result, Lord Chu was forcibly left in this Guge royal capital and became the de facto leader of politics and religion.
As soon as the news of Chu Fan's appointment spread, someone came to visit.
It was none other than the Catholic missionary Antonio de Antonio de Anthord, who had been expelled a few days ago, and at this time the Portuguese Catholic Catholic Church had already established a diocese in Goa, India, and the last time he was invited by Tashi Zabad to preach in Guge, he did not achieve much for several years, and was finally expelled from Guge by the king.
But the perseverance of the Catholic mission is still very strong, in order to find the legendary rich and prosperous "Aurora". They continue to look for opportunities to expand their diocese.
Therefore, he was not afraid of danger and came to Guge again, hoping that in the hands of Chu Fan, the new leader, he would once again promote Catholicism.
Seeing the foreigners coming, Chu Fan was pleasantly surprised, haha, I'm waiting for you.
In fact, he did not come to Tibet only for Tibet, his goal was very large, it was the whole of China.
As a result, he studied Chinese seriously and did his homework in order to preach in the Ming Dynasty in the future.
"Lord Chu, it's time to see you below." Saying that, Ann Dec made a standard gesture.
