In the evening, Li Xiangjun was sent to Xuzhou by a boat that went down the river. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Hou Xun."

On the main hall of Liu Zeqing's palatial Hou Mansion, Yang Feng sat on the Taishi chair, looked at Li Xiangjun kneeling in front of him, and tapped his fingers on the coffee table next to him with emotion.

He was indeed shocked by the generosity of the former Ministry of Rites, how frustrating it must be to come up with this kind of poisonous plan, which shows that in later generations in addition to the legend that Li Zicheng dug the Yellow River embankment to flood Kaifeng, there is also the official army themselves digging the embankment to flood the Shunjun This statement is not unreasonable, in front of these important ministers of the court, in order to achieve their own goals, it is really not a problem to drown a million pi people, it seems that Hou Sui is also one of the commanders in the official army that reinforced Kaifeng, so it can be seen that this old guy is also familiar with the way.

What is the copper tile box?

In 1855, the Yellow River was diverted from seizing the Huai River into the sea to seizing the economy into the sea, and it was from that place that the mouth of the Yellow River was broken, and the course of the modern Yellow River was basically determined.

For posterity, it's really that simple.

But for the people along the line at that time, it was a catastrophe, after the break, the town of Tongwaxiang disappeared instantly, the next day the gap was brushed wide to 200 meters, and then brushed wide to more than 500 meters, the surging Yellow River water surged out from this terrible gap, a most wide more than 200 miles of the Yellow Dragon rushed eastward, straight to the three provinces of Henan and ten prefectures more than 40 counties a vast ocean. After the disaster, there were more than 2,000 villages that were completely wiped out, and the area around Puyang City was more than 180 miles away and even became a dead place, a complete world of floods and rotting corpses, and the famine caused by the flood made a large number of cannibalistic tragedies in Luxi, the total number of people affected in this disaster exceeded 10 million, and the final death in this disaster was uncountable, it can be said that as long as the copper tile embankment was excavated, then one million people died is the minimum.

Of course, the purpose of those learned scholars was also achieved.

If this scene really happens, then Yang Feng can only withdraw his troops, even if his logistics are not completely cut off by the flood, he will not be able to ignore the tens of millions of victims behind him, and even in the next two years, he will not be able to go south again, after all, he will be entangled in countless troubles next, just relieving those victims can drag him to exhaustion, and the disaster will bring more unknown troubles, in short, those gentry can hide behind millions of unjust souls and continue their good life.

"This is the important minister of my humerus back then!"

Yang Feng looked at Li Xiangjun, who was still kneeling there, and said with emotion: "Their festival is actually not as good as a girl!" Come here! ”

Li Xiangjun hurriedly kneeled forward.

"Raise your head!"

Yang Feng said.

She looked up cautiously.

Yang Feng took out a large leather wallet from his arms, and after opening it, there were two rows of more than a dozen medals of three different styles, after he looked at it, he took one out of the only three identical medals inside, the middle part of this medal is the enamel white sun and yellow moon, the periphery is gold moire, and the outermost is two sinuous golden dragons, he then turned the medal over, engraved Li Xiangjun's name on the back with an engraving pen, and then lowered his head and put it on her chest in her shy gaze.

"I've rewarded you, and you're the first to receive the Imperial Medal."

Yang Feng said.

There are currently three kinds of medals he has established, the highest rank of the Imperial Medal, the second rank of the Emperor's Medal, and the third rank of the Medal of Loyalty, the latter two of which have been awarded to his subordinates for meritorious service, but this is the first Imperial Medal awarded.

Li Xiangjun looked at the thing hanging on her chest a little blankly, she didn't know what it meant at this time, according to the latest version of the Daming Order management system, as the winner of the Imperial Medal, she will receive the equivalent of a first-grade official until her death every month, and her designated heir will also receive the equivalent of the Emperor's Medal until death, and the heir designated by her heir can also receive the six-grade official Yulu equivalent to the Medal of Loyalty and Courage until death, which is the most special feature of the Daming Medal.

It is not only honor, but also the most direct money.

"You're a famous kabuki, aren't you?"

Yang Feng asked.

"Slaves and maids make a living by singing."

Li Xiangjun said timidly.

"Then would you like to go to the palace to teach my palace maids? You are not in the palace, you will still be free in the future, you are only employed by me as an errand, and if you don't want to, you can quit your errand at any time and go wherever you want. ”

Yang Feng said.

"The slave is willing."

Li Xiangjun said hurriedly.

"Take her down to arrange accommodation, and then send an order to the Heavy Cavalry Brigade, the First Cavalry Brigade, the First, Second, and Third Infantry Brigades, and the First Artillery Brigade, and immediately follow me to attack Guide, I want to see what kind of wolf heart and dog lungs that Hou Sui has to do, and can do such a dehumanizing thing!"

Yang Feng said viciously.

As for the copper tile compartment......

Copper tile compartment.

"Kill!"

Han Guang, the sub-division of the Tongwaxiang sub-division of the Prime Minister's river, and the Tongwaxiang garrison glanced at each other, and almost at the same time, he pulled out his knife and pointed forward and shouted loudly.

Then they swung their swords and rushed forward.

Behind them were less than five hundred soldiers of the former Green Battalion, at this moment these soldiers who had already entered the countdown to the retrenchment, but had not yet lined up for their turn, holding Yanling knives and shields and spears, followed their commanders also roared and rushed forward, and in front of them was an arc-shaped defensive line, thousands of soldiers of the Shun Army relied on swords, shields and spears to protect the birds and guns who were constantly shooting behind them, and the bullets flew forward intensively, and the charging Ming soldiers kept falling.

Han Guang and his soldiers did not stop.

Because just behind this line of defense, on the embankment of the Yellow River, those soldiers of the Shun army are constantly digging.

They're going to dig up the dam.

After forty years of working as a river worker, he knew very well what this meant by being appointed by the emperor as the branch of Tongwaxiang, no matter what, he had to prevent the disaster from happening, even if he only had a few hundred soldiers without combat effectiveness, and his opponent was five thousand veteran ruffians who had fought for more than ten years, but he still had to move forward, even if he died, he had to rush over, rush over to block the enemies who were creating a disaster that killed millions of people, and in the wild running, he suddenly felt that his right rib had been hit hard, He lowered his head to look at the blood stains that were spreading on his official uniform, and immediately a sharp pain hit, he gritted his teeth and glanced forward, raised the Yanling knife in his hand and continued to charge.

It's close.

It's close.

The enemy finally appeared in front of him.

But at the same time, a spear pierced into his body, Han Guang grabbed the spear shaft on his chest, took a step forward, and the Yanling knife in his hand stabbed into the opponent's body without hesitation.

And at this moment, the garrison behind him, who was a veteran of the forbidden army, suddenly lit the fuse on his body with his cover, with the burning fire and a full twenty catties of black powder under the cotton armor, with spears stabbed at him, and crashed into the Shun army defense line with a wild laugh. The flames of the explosion suddenly tore through the defense line, dozens of Shun soldiers were blown to pieces, and an obvious gap immediately appeared, and before the Shun army that was blown up could fill this gap again, only less than three hundred Ming soldiers rushed in with a roar, frantically slashing and killing the Shun soldiers who were digging the embankment behind the defense line.

The latter fled in panic.

This was of little use, because the number of the Ming army was too small, and soon the Shun army behind completed the encirclement, and after ten minutes of bloody fighting, the last Ming soldier also fell under the sword.

"These madmen!"

Hou Fangyu's lips trembled.

"Don't get to work yet!"

Originally, the general soldiers and horses of the former Ming army who captured Hongguang and surrendered to the Qing Dynasty in Nanjing in history were meritorious, and he yelled at his subordinates with a gloomy face.

He was actually for money, Hou Sui took out a full 50,000 taels of silver in order to buy him, of course, this silver is definitely not Hou Sui's own, in fact, the gentry in Jiangnan paid for it, and the whole plan was not hastily formulated, when Qian Qianyi and Zuo Liangyu were in Nanjing, Qian Qianyi and Zuo Liangyu instructed it, although Li Zicheng had the final say in Nanjing, but the Donglin Party and the old official and military system headed by Zuo Liangyu had already formed an alliance in private, after all, compared to Li Zicheng, they were the ones who really couldn't afford to lose.

He was entrusted to him by everyone.

Including his garrison Lanyang is also planned by these people behind the scenes, and even his soldiers are all from the south, and they don't even understand the language with the local people, so as to avoid their psychological burden to the greatest extent, it can be said that everything is planned.

Of course, it was not planned to blow it up with gunpowder.

At this time, they did not have such good waterproof technology, and they had to pile up thousands of catties of gunpowder to blow up such an embankment, and digging a hole would seep a lot of water, so they could only take primitive means.

Beside him, a Shunjun soldier who was cut off by the Ming soldiers quickly picked up the pickaxe on the ground, stood on the shaved embankment, bent down and began to continue the work, but when he raised his head again after the first planing, he suddenly froze, and then the pickaxe fell to the ground again.

"Dog, didn't you hear?"

Ma Degong kicked him and shouted angrily.

"Look, General!"

The soldier said expressionlessly, pointing into the distance.

Ma Degong turned his head, and then cold sweat fell down on his face.

And at the same time, the legs of all the soldiers of the Shun army trembled.

Because in the distance, on the green field, a seemingly boundless gray tide was rapidly sweeping, it was countless young and middle-aged people, they wielded hoes and shovels, without any formation or queue, completely like a colony of ants attached to food, surging in a terrifying momentum, even the earth seemed to tremble, and with them was accompanied by the roar like a tsunami......

"Kill!"

"Kill these turtle grandchildren!"

"Kill these turtle grandchildren, don't let them destroy our village!"

……

Ten minutes later.

The cavalry led by Zheng Chenggong and the forbidden army from Changyuan arrived at the same time, but at this time the battlefield was no longer their business, because the total number of furious villagers was no less than 100,000, and Ma Degong and his men had been completely overwhelmed.
