Chapter 73 The Consequences of Yun Zhao's Procrastination
Chapter 73 The consequences of Yun Zhao procrastination
When almost all the bigwigs from all over Lantian returned to Lantian for a meeting, the Ming Dynasty immediately became anxious.
On October 11, the 16th year of Chongzhen, the Wei Ming general of the Wei Ming Dynasty in Shazhou, Suzhou, established himself as king in Shazhou Wei, named "King of Powerful Wu."
On October 23, the leader of the Junggar tribe, Batur, after defeating the Tsarist Russian invasion twice, formulated the Khalkha-Werat Code and formally established the Junggar Khanate.
On October 25, the 16th year of Chongzhen, Tuoba Shi, Hehuang, Qinghai, established himself as the king in Jishi Mountain, named "King of Haixi."
On November 2, the 16th year of Chongzhen, Li Hongji proclaimed himself emperor in Jinan Prefecture, and named Li Jiqian Taizu, and founded the country "Dashun".
On November 3, 16th year of Chongzhen, Zhang Bingzhong proclaimed himself emperor in Nanchang Prefecture, and the country was named "Western Chu".
On November 6, the 16th year of Chongzhen, She Minghua, a descendant of the She family, proclaimed himself emperor in Sinan Prefecture, Guizhou, and the country was named "Daliang".
On November 9, 16th year of Chongzhen, Anda, a descendant of the An family, proclaimed himself emperor in Mengding Prefecture, Yunnan, and the country was named "Da'an".
On November 10, the 16th year of Chongzhen, Zheng Jing proclaimed himself emperor in Ryukyu, and his country was named "Da Zheng"!
The above kings are only kings with names, surnames, troops, and territory. As for what, there are countless kings such as Hengtian, Pingshi, Martian, Geshi, and Yongping.
At the same time, it also marked that the Ming Dynasty's rule on this land had completely entered a period of decline.
This is actually good news for Yun Zhao. The world is full of grass-headed kings, and it is the hero who set out to show his grand goal to kill all the bandits to give the world a good opportunity to safeguard the world.
It has infinite benefits for Yun Zhao to completely inherit the Ming Dynasty from a legal perspective.
However, his subordinates disagreed.
Especially Ma Ping, the captain stationed in Lanzhou Guard, was even more angry.
Although he had only a thousand people under his command, the area of the guards was very large. Within a radius of 500 miles, except for the Baiyin Factory's status that was beyond his jurisdiction, all the remaining places belonged to his military jurisdiction. The Jishishan thief Tuoba Shi was in his jurisdiction.
After first hearing the news of Tuoba Shi's rebellion, Ma Ping couldn't believe his ears.
When the army inspected Jishi Mountain, we knew that this was the source of rebellion in the northwest. The famous Li Hongji and Zhang Bingzhong all left their footprints here.
Therefore, when the army arrived, it came with an attitude of suppressing the rebellion.
But it was Tuoba Shi who showed his transcendent means at that time and was respectful to the army. Not only did he comply with the various instructions issued by the officials of Lantian, he could also further appreciate the national policy of Lantian and rectify a ruined mountain of stones in a short time.
Therefore, the Lantian Government Affairs Department believes that Jishishan has entered a new stage and no officials are needed to be dispatched, and it can be handed over to the locals to manage themselves.
Three months ago, Ma Ping had his men inspected Jishi Mountain. It was the autumn harvest and all the farmers were busy. Tuoba Shi even promised Ma Ping that in another year, there would be no need to accept assistance from Lantian here.
The military secretary even marked the place from light red to a green representing peace after inspecting Jishi Mountain.
First, Tuoba Shi rebelled... and he called himself a bullshit "King of Haixi".
After submitting a document requesting punishment to the Lantian Military Affairs Department and sending an alarm to the Baiyin Factory, Ma Ping took 800 fully armed light cavalry to Jishi Mountain.
At Chumatan, he met Tuoba Shi's official army. Ma Ping was not even interested in taking a look at the precious gifts presented by Tuoba Shi. He raised his hand and shot the messenger who wanted to bribe him with a musket. Then he began to charge violently.
The large number of mobs, under the charge of the elite cavalry of Maping, quickly discarded the wooden fork, hoe, guillotine, and hatchet.
Only Ma Ping and the six guards around him did not charge. He looked at the rebels who were fleeing in all directions or surrendering on their backs. He couldn't understand why they rebelled without thinking.
He caught a seemingly honest farmer and asked him why he rebelled.
The farmer said shyly - give money!
Ma Ping let out a long roar, swung his knife to cut off the farmer's arm and roared, "Do you know that rebellion will die?"
The farmer with his arms cut off rolled on the ground and kept calling for help from his mother, shouting that he would never dare to do it again, which made Ma Ping unable to cut down his second knife.
This scene was both familiar and unfamiliar to Ma Ping. Ten years ago, when the thieves were rampant in Longzhong, his brother had rolled on the ground and begged on the ground. The thieves still shot and shot his young brother's body with one shot. Until his brother was powerless, he still did not move even if he was stabbed by a spear. The thieves laughed and looked for a new target.
Ma Ping believes that these people do not have the intention to rebel. They are just following the simple folk rules that others give money and work hard on their own.
Seeing the farmer who had lost his breath gradually calm down due to excessive blood loss, Ma Ping burst into tears.
"Tuoba Shi, I want to suck your tendons, peel your skin, and dismember your five horses!"
Ma Ping's high-pitched roar almost covered the noisy battlefield.
Ma Ping, whose eyes were red, stepped on the horse, held the knife in his hand, and said to the servants: "Don't let Tuoba Shi go."
So the cavalry gave up pursuing the fleeing farmers and began to pursue the rebels who were on horseback.
It is only sixty miles away from Chumatan to Jishishan.
This is nothing for Lantian Light Cavalry, which is equipped with the best war horses, and it is difficult for those rebels riding horses to escape back to Jishi Mountain as quickly as possible.
They were caught one by one, and finally tied their hands by the cavalrymen who did not want to leave the brigade to take care of the captives, and dragged them behind the horses and ran wildly.
Jishi Mountain is a small place, mainly a dirt city left by the Ming Wei.
When Ma Ping ran to Tucheng in one breath, Tuoba Shi was standing at the top of the city and looking down at him.
A burst of arrows flew over, and the horse retreated beyond the range of the arrow.
"Tell them, only kill the evil ones."
After running for sixty miles, Ma Ping's anger became even stronger.
Because, along the way, he saw three stone beacon towers, and there were wolf smoke burning on each beacon tower. The people on the beacon tower not only closed the gates at the bottom, but even stood on the beacon tower and shot arrows at them...
The grenade exploded the entrance of the beacon tower. Ma Ping was too lazy to confront these people. After igniting the gunpowder bag, he quickly evacuated. The beacon tower was blown off by the gunpowder bag, and those who dared to resist were buried in piles of rocks.
In order to hurry up, Ma Ping did not even clear the battlefield.
The cavalry rode around the Tucheng on horseback and conveyed Ma Ping's military orders to the people in the city over and over again, and the city was silent.
Two heavy wooden boxes were hung from the hamlet, Ma Ping ignored it, and two other alien women in bright clothes were put on baskets and hung down from the city. Ma Ping ordered the siege.
The dense rain of bullets made the people on the city wall dare not appear, and then a cavalry piled up gunpowder bags into the cave of the city gate. After throwing a lit gunpowder bag into the cave of the city gate, the rammed earth gate was split into pieces with a thunderbolt sound.
The cavalry threw out the locks and put them on the broken city gate. More than a dozen war horses pulled them hard, and the city gate collapsed with a bang.
Just behind the broken city gate, a large group of frightened faces appeared. They looked at the ferocious cavalry outside the city, shouted, and fled in all directions.
Ma Ping was not in a hurry to attack. After resting, the cavalry still slowly circled around the city wall. Only a small number of cavalry began to clear the city gates full of dirt, preparing to clear obstacles for the army to enter the city.
Seeing that the obstacles at the city gate were about to be cleared, a group of people rushed out of the other city gate. They were as frightened as dogs. After leaving the city, they quickly fled to the Antelope City (now Cooperative City).
Ma Ping looked at the escaped people coldly and said to the secretary: "You are right, it is indeed a remnant of Tuyuhun."
The clerk frowned and said, "Do these Achai people have no sense of gratitude? How did the Tubo people treat them, how did the Mongolians treat them, and then see how we treat them.
Why do people always overestimate themselves and want to restore the glory of their ancestors?
Now, they can't have any way out."
Ma Ping sneered and said, "Send a message to Lama Gongqiong, the White Sect, the Dharma King of Andokaju Sect, that I want to live Tuoba Shi, and I will not be able to lose a single hair."
The secretary said: "It just so happens that we will discuss the human skin drum with this Dharma King."
Ma Ping was stunned for a moment and looked at the secretary and said, "This is nothing to do with us, everyone is willing to be skinned."
The secretary said angrily: "When I was studying at Yushan Academy, my gentlemen did not tell me that I could stand by and watch when I saw the sufferings of the world."
Ma Ping frowned and said, "Do you know what the consequences will be if you get involved in this?"
The clerk sneered: "I, Lantian, hate evil like a grudge, and the evil spirits and monsters do whatever he does."
Ma Ping sighed and said, "The people here have just settled down..."
The secretary said: "As long as things like the head and the human skin drum still exist, the people here will still be bewitched. In this way, my new Yushan School will not be able to enter Anduo to open up people's wisdom.
I think we can bear the temporary chaos and the temporary losses."
Ma Ping looked at the young and overly registrar and said, "Since there are differences in opinions, report them."
The secretary said leisurely: "Brother Ma, your opinions will not be adopted. In order not to hurt your majesty in the army, I will report them alone. In the report, I will write your opinions clearly and use fire paint after you have read them."
Ma Ping sighed and looked at the people who were driven out of the Tucheng by the cavalry and said, "Anxi will be troublesome from now on."
The clerk also looked at the people and said, "Those who obey me will prosper, and those who oppose me will perish. If I, Lantian, cannot use any means, people will think that we are weak and can be bullied."
