Chapter 415: Yunnan Firearms Battalion
The tragic death of King Xiang is undoubtedly a tragedy, and for Zhu Di, he lost another brother. However, the king of Xiang is in the hinterland, his troops are limited, and he is not good at fighting, and it is not surprising that he is a moth throwing fire when he raises troops.
As for the King of Qi, to be honest, Zhu Di is not optimistic, he has fought several battles with this brother, in general, the King of Qi is arrogant, ambitious, brutal, but his brain is not very good, he is in Qingzhou, in addition to facing the soldiers and horses of Shandong, but also to guard against the tiger around him - Geng Bingwen, the Marquis of Changxing, with this old man, the King of Qi does not want to become a climate.
The only one who has hope of success is King Min.
"Yunnan, can we do things together?"
Zhu Di asked about Yunnan, referring to the first major force, Xiping Hou Muchun.
"If the 300,000 people of the Mu family attack together and break through Jiangnan, it will be just around the corner!" Zhu Di stared at Liu Chun fiercely, "You have been in Yunnan for some days, will Mu Chun listen to you?" ”
Liu Chun spread his hands, "There are also many people in the Mu family, he is in a high position, how can he be at my mercy, but ......"
"But what?" Zhu Di asked.
"It's nothing, it's the soldiers under Mu Chun, many of them will listen to me!"
"Quite a few? How much? Is there 30 percent? Zhu Di said excitedly, if there can be thirty percent, it will be enough to ignite a fire.
"It should be less than 30 percent."
"Less than 30 percent?" Zhu Di couldn't help but be disappointed, and lowered his head, but Liu Chun's next words made Zhu Di jump up directly.
"If you don't listen to me, it should be less than thirty percent, and if you count the soldiers and horses of the toast, it will be even less!" Liu Chun said with confidence.
"You! You kid can do it! ”
Zhu Di didn't know what to say, Liu Chun's time in Yunnan was really not too long, he actually put Mu Chun in the air, it can't be described as powerful, it's a demon at all!
Yunnan!
It turns out that Yunnan is also on its side!
Zhu Di felt a kind of joy of picking up the dog's head gold, and a relieved smile appeared on his face, he was very curious, "Liu Chun, can you tell me the truth, how many chess pieces do you still have to take out?" ”
Liu Chun couldn't cry or laugh, "Lord Wang, I have only been to so many places in total, and there are only a few things I can do, and there are really no soldiers and horses." ”
Note that Liu Chun is talking about soldiers and horses, as for other forces, they are not among them.
"In that case, can you let Yunnan do it immediately?"
Liu Chun pondered for a moment and shook his head slightly, "Lord Wang, the soldiers in Yunnan are all selected from the mainland, if they act rashly, their families are easily threatened, not to mention anything else, many of Mu Chun's generals are the sons of nobles, if they rebel, what will happen to their families in Beijing?" ”
Zhu Di groaned, "Indeed, we can't force Mu Chun to be desperate, in fact, Mu Chun can stand still, which is great news for us." Zhu Di said from the bottom of his heart, Mu Ying's ability to lead troops is by no means under Zhu Di, the Yunnan soldiers he trained single-handedly have strong combat power, especially good at using firearms.
Moreover, since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, the forbidden army in Beijing has basically not moved much except for a few northern expeditions, while the Yunnan soldiers are different, they have been fighting almost every day, dealing with all kinds of Tusi soldiers and horses. Liu Chun is also clear about this, when it comes to combat effectiveness and ferocity, even if Zhu Di single-handedly trains the Beiping soldiers and horses, they may not be opponents.
"Lord Wang, it will be difficult to let Mu Chun directly raise troops, but I guess he will definitely make a move, and he is guaranteed to make Zhu Yunwen uncomfortable!"
……
"Master Hou, what should I do, you have to take an attitude."
Tang Zhao stepped on the chair with one foot and shouted loudly: "Zhu Yunwen, this rabbit cub is too inauthentic, don't say anything else, he dares to kill Brother Liu!" Based on this alone, we should raise troops to ask for an explanation! At the beginning, you said that it was difficult to make a sound with a lonely palm, and we were not allowed to make any moves. I've endured it, but now? Do you see? All the vassal kings have done something, so they sent us, what should you do? The brothers are waiting for a decree! ”
Mu Chun was embarrassed.
"I said Lao Tang, not all the vassal kings are reversed, there are also the king of Shu, as well as the king of Ning and the king of Liao, they are all powerful factions. Moreover, although we have soldiers in Yunnan, we have no food and grass, and the terrain is rugged and the road is difficult...... I can promise you if you ask me to raise troops, but the question is where we will start, which road we will take, how much time will it take, and how much food and people will cost. ”
Tang Zhao waved his hand and said unceremoniously: "You said this, they are all in charge of the commanders of the three armies, and my old Tang is only responsible for charging into battle, so I will ask you a word, send troops, or not send troops?" ”
Mu Chun can be regarded as a teacher, and he can't reason with Tang Zhao at all, so find someone who can make sense.
Not long after, Feng Cheng came.
As soon as he walked in, Mu Chun had a trace of illusion, he had been missing for a while, how did his uncle seem to be much younger, if he looked closely, he was not young, but he was more heroic, and he seemed confident, which was not the same as his honest appearance before.
Mu Chun told Feng Cheng about it.
Feng Cheng lowered his head, pressed one hand on his thigh, listened carefully, and then said to Tang Zhao: "Old Tang, don't say anything else, your father Xinguo is still in the capital!" I heard that he had a stroke and his condition is serious, if we do something, what will he do with the old man? ”
Tang Zhao blinked his big eyes, "What can I do, leave it to fate!" ”
"You're not afraid of Zhu Yunwen killing people?" Feng Cheng asked.
Mu Chun also said: "Not only Xin Guogong, but also Song Guogong, there are many people who have a relationship with us, we can't ignore it!" ”
Tang Zhao's face was full of disdain, and he snorted coldly: "That's a nice thing, let me ask you, even if we don't do anything, won't we die?" Don't be stupid! What did Liu Chun do not obey? No, he entered Beijing by will, but he was killed on the way, buried in the sea, and his bones were gone! ”
Tang Zhao knocked on the table and shouted angrily: "Don't dream wishfully, you think that if you don't do anything, you can be safe?" I Lao Tang put the words here, if King Yan can't hold on, the other vassal kings will be wiped out, and Zhu Yunwen will do something to us when he turns around! I will also tell you that the business of Yunnan copper was done by Liu Chun, and the development of Myanmar was also led by Liu Chun. Now it's Zhu Yunwen who hasn't eased up, once he has kung fu, he will smash our jobs. ”
"I can tell you clearly, the brothers have easily lived a prosperous life, if they stop here, and have to live a hard life as before, then it is not that we have rebelled against the court, but that they have jumped out and rebelled against us!"
Tang Zhao don't look rude, but these words are quite insightful!
Having come to this point, there really isn't much room for choice. Anyway, they are all labeled as Liu Chun, even if they don't let go, they won't end well.
But he was really desperate to rebel, but Mu Chun was still unwilling...... And, well, there's another factor in that. The Mu family is already in Yunnan, even if they change to an emperor, can they have higher treatment? At most, how much difference can there be between Hou Ye and his grandfather.
And Mu Chun also knew that in fact, the Fa-changers also advocated cutting the domain, but they advocated it more thoroughly. Even the local heroes and powerhouses have to be cleaned up, let alone the emperor of the soil.
For the sake of the Mu family's foundation, he couldn't help but weigh it carefully.
The more Tang Zhao thought about it, the more he held his breath, he suddenly turned to Feng Cheng and shouted angrily: "Don't pretend to be a dead pig, speak!" Do you want to avenge your nephew? ”
Feng Cheng said with a straight face: "General Tang, everything has to be discussed in the long run, don't worry!" ”
"Planning, how to calculate? Isn't it just to raise troops! ”
Feng Cheng snorted, "How can it be so easy, you say, our treasury has no grain in stock, so let the brothers go hungry to fight?" ”
"Then, find a way to collect food!"
"Where to go for the levy? Those toasts are poorer than us! Where did the food come from! ”
"Then what are you going to do, you can't just be still, right?" Tang Zhaowei shouted.
Feng Cheng had a straight face, but there was a sly smile in his eyes, "We don't have it, but someone has it!" ”
"Who? Is it King Yan? Let's do something with him, he should give him some food and grass. ”
"No!" Feng Cheng shook his head and said: "King Yan is also a poor ghost, I can't count on it for the time being, we still have to count on the imperial court!" ”
Tang Zhao was drinking water and squirted out.
Isn't the surname Feng talking nonsense!
We discussed raising troops to deal with Zhu Yunwen, but that kid was stupid enough to send food over, is there such a ridiculous thing in the world?
Feng Cheng smiled: "Old Tang, you are too impatient, you listen to me and finish." Let's expel King Min from Yunnan first, and let him go to southern Sichuan to eat. Zhu Yunwen will definitely not allow Bashu to lose, so he can only ask us to send troops to help, so that he can ask for food! ”
"Oops! Okay! Lao Feng! You're damaging enough! Tang Zhao took another breath, "Then, what if Zhu Yunwen is not fooled?" What are you going to do? “
"That's even better! Let's let King Min march into Bashu and force the King of Shu to raise troops too! ”
"King Shu?"
"Yes!" Feng Cheng laughed and said: "As long as the king of Shu raises troops, Yunnan, Bashu, and Shaanxi, this will be a piece!" Zhu Yunwen has no other choice but a dead end! ”
Tang Zhao shook his head, thought for a while, and couldn't help but stretch out two thumbs!
exclaimed: "Cheng, Lao Feng, you have two hits now, this trick is called driving the tiger and devouring the wolf, right?" It's wonderful! I'll arrange it! ”
Feng Cheng smiled reservedly, "The small skill of carving insects is not worth mentioning. But I don't need you to send troops this time, I'll come in person! ”
"You? To go to war? Will it work? Tang Zhao sent out a question triple attack, in the past, Lao Feng Ke had always been hiding behind.
"Don't be impressed for three days!" Feng Cheng said with an old face: "You can take a good look at the power of my firearms battalion!" ”
Tang Zhao then remembered that in addition to digging copper mines and selling them for money in Yunnan, Liu Chun also set up an ordnance workshop, and at the beginning, he could only produce some tiger squat cannons.
Recently, I heard that the artillery is getting bigger and bigger, and even the gun has been improved, and the power has increased greatly! No wonder Feng Cheng changed his cowardice and became a militant!
"Lao Feng, I really want to see how powerful your firearms battalion can be!"
