I, Zhu Youjian: the first prodigal son of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 275
The so-called 'ancient country of Loulan', in the mind of the idiot emperor, is nothing more than a legendary ancient country in the northwest that has been destroyed for thousands of years, and it seems to have nothing to do with the Ming Dynasty.

However, looking at the woman in front of him.

He was silent for a long time.

According to this foreign woman, the ancient country of Loulan was once a small country on the ancient Silk Road. It was located in the west of Lop Nur, at the hub of the Western Regions. North to Hami.

More than 1000 years ago, following an unprecedented chaotic war, the ancient kingdom of Loulan was conquered by the countries of the Western Regions and divided up, and gradually disappeared in the long river of history.

"Lop Nur...the ancient country of Loulan...the Western Regions..."

Zhu Youjian muttered in a low voice, scribbling and drawing on a piece of paper, making circles and dots, which made the foreign woman kneeling beside him bewildered.

She was shocked to find that the mountains, rivers and rivers painted by the Ming emperor in front of her, even including some lakes that had long since disappeared on the grasslands, deserts and Gobi Desert, were roughly the same as what she had seen in the murals of her motherland.

Even more detailed.

"Your ancient country of Loulan was originally a small country in the Western Regions. During the Han Dynasty, it sometimes became a vassal of the Han Dynasty, and sometimes became the enemy of the Huns and our Han people;
Swaying left and right in this way, the disaster of destroying the country is inevitable.

However, what I can't figure out is, didn't you destroy the country a thousand years ago?Why did another ancient kingdom of Loulan appear suddenly?This is very unscientific..."

Zhu Youjian raised his head slowly, stared at the foreign woman with a gloomy face, suddenly smiled, and said, "Do you want to restore the country?"

The woman hesitated for a breath or two, and wanted to say nothing, but remembering Zhu Youjian's method before, she couldn't help shivering, and said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, Emperor Ming, what you said...is right.

Our ancient country of Loulan was destroyed more than 1000 years ago. However, there are still remains of our people, and our royal blood has not been cut off. For more than 1000 years, we have been wandering around the Altun Mountains like a group of ghosts. Our biggest dream is It's Restoration..."

The woman's voice gradually dropped.

Zhu Youjian listened silently, tapping lightly on the table with two fingers, seemingly hesitating.

"How did you collude with Hakka Baba?" Zhu Youjian asked suddenly: "You can't tell the distribution of Erut's power in the northwest, so I won't embarrass you.

So, you are of no use to me, so go to hell. "

After speaking, with a greeting, Miss Hongliu walked into the cabin quickly.

"Take her down and bury her in the soil, leaving only her neck and head outside. Then, cut a small opening on the top of her head and pour a few catties of mercury in; then, like a monkey, she will walk out of the pit. Only by jumping out from the inside will I suffer all the suffering in the world and die slowly..."

Zhu Youjian said it very casually, as if he was talking about an old story.

Miss Hongliu fought a cold war.

In her wonderful eyes, there was a look of resentment and resentment in her resentment: "My lord...why is this so?"

Zhu Youjian smiled, and said: "This foreign woman colluded with Princess Hakshi Baba of Erut, and hid in our Daming capital for more than ten years. I don't know how many disasters she has done. Since she doesn't want to talk about it, she can just kill her." She forgets.

Oh, by the way, after she gets out of her stinky skin, you remember to call those idlers in the capital to watch her.

If I have time, I will naturally go and have a look. After peeling off the skin of such a peerless face...

Tsk tsk, it's really exciting. "

There was a weird smile on Zhu Youjian's face, not to mention the foreign woman, even the girl Hongliu couldn't bear it...

"Your Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, the slave family... the slave family has an important military report!"

suddenly the woman cried out.

"Take her down, you're just a stinky skin, how dare you flirt in front of me and release your bullshit and vulgar tricks!" Zhu Youjian scolded coldly: "Hongliu, take her down, and do as I say.

If there is any important military situation, even a little princess of subjugation would not be able to tell why. "

Miss Hongliu hesitated to speak.

However, when she saw Zhu Youjian's two fingers tapping lightly on the table, she immediately understood.

This young master!
Even learned to scare people.

It's really scary, where did this idiot learn it from...

……

So, two hours later.

It's almost dusk.

In the late autumn, the capital is bleak, countless fallen leaves are falling down one after another, and when the cold north wind blows, they will roll up in the dirty streets and alleys, making a noisy noise.

Because of the so-called 'Jiuyuan disaster', the time has not yet entered the midwinter, but the lake has already frozen.

Thousands of miles of lead clouds, the sky is like snow.

On a small solitary peak on the lake, in an unremarkable nunnery, in several brand-new white iron stoves, the coal brought from Datong Prefecture in Shanxi was burning red, making the originally cold Buddhist hall very hot.

Zhu Youjian was wearing a plain mink fur robe, with bare feet, sitting on a Persian carpet, holding a glass cup, drinking slowly.

Beside her leg, the nun with a witty saying lowered her eyebrows, like a little daughter-in-law who was being bullied, pinching her leg for the idiot emperor with some resentment.

There is no shame in eating meat and drinking in the Buddhist hall...

This idiot emperor is simply not human!

However, after thinking about it, some of what he said seemed quite reasonable. He said that the Buddha was in his heart when wine and meat passed through his intestines.

If a person is truly compassionate, he must embrace the fireworks in this world.

It's not like those scholars and monks, who sit upright and serious on the face, but in their bones, they are all fucking bones. The most hateful ones are those scholars, who have evil intentions but no courage, so they drum up some bullshit to make them feel at ease. article……

……

"My son, the subjugated princess of the ancient kingdom of Loulan told me that Erut united with the tribes of Beiman, Yarkand, Turpan, Tumed, Waikalkha, Hasa, and Bukhara, and divided the troops into two groups. Expedition to the west, covering hundreds of thousands of miles;

All the way to the east, trying to break through the Suzhou Guard in the Hexi Corridor, knocking off the Jincheng..."

Opposite the idiot emperor, Miss Hongliu knelt on the carpet, eating meat and drinking generously, while whispering the details of the interrogation.

What the woman of the foreign race said before is really unbelievable, it is all plausible and deceitful words.

However, when Miss Hongliu buried him in the soil, leaving only the neck and head, someone brought some mercury and used a small knife to gesticulate on the top of his head.

The subjugated princess peed in an instant.

I begged bitterly, and started to "confess the problem" in a panic.

"The princess of the subjugated country is very cunning. The questions she explained at the beginning are all specious, half-truths and half-false, and they are not credible at all." Miss Hongliu took a big sip of wine, put her hand on her chest, and gave the idiot emperor a sad look, and continued. said:

"It's all your fault, such a good young master, I don't know where I learned the cruel methods, I feel chilled when I hear it!"

Zhu Youjian laughed loudly, and said: "That woman is charming and charming by nature, and she seems to have a special charm technique, if she doesn't frighten her fox gall, how can she ask some useful words?

Hongliu, tell me, what's going on in the northwest?

Also, what happened to the ancient country of Loulan? "

Miss Hongliu pondered a few times, and said: "The northwest side is not optimistic. Erut was originally a tribal alliance. Although the combat power is strong, it is a mess after all, and it is not enough to cause hidden dangers for me.

However, it is different now. Erutt sweated profusely. Somehow, he was able to communicate with the Changshengtian of Waikalkha directly. Hundreds of northern barbarian tribes united and became a vassal state of Erut.

It is said that the Great Khan of Erut, who possessed magical powers, unrivaled martial arts, and incomparable strength, could ascend to heaven and enter the earth, and was equal to heaven and earth..."

"Okay, okay," Zhu Youjian waved his hand with a smile, and said, "It's just a magic stick, don't listen to people talking nonsense."

He really didn't believe that there would be a person who could penetrate the heavens and the earth in the world.

"I traveled through the historical Ming Dynasty, not the Gaowu Ming Dynasty or the mythical Ming Dynasty. How can there be immortals and gods with great power..." Zhu Youjian muttered, but he didn't take it to heart.

On the other hand, Miss Hongliu and Nun Qiaoyu looked at each other in blank dismay.

'What is crossing? '

"Gaowu Daming, what kind of tall thing..."

"Let's find a way to solve the important matter in front of me. When I free up my hands, I will lead you to the northwest, and beat that shit Khan King to the ground by the way." Zhu Youjian ignored the doubts of the second daughter and continued:
"The subjugated princess who claims to be the ancient kingdom of Loulan should be imprisoned first, so I will be useful in the future; Hongliu, tell me about the Liaodong first, does Mangurtai have any new moves?
Did he send a support army to bypass the Chahar Grassland and move towards Luding Mountain in a detour? "

Miss Hongliu paused and said, "No."

Zhu Youjian: "Huh? No?"

The idiot emperor was stunned for a while.

"It shouldn't be, Mang Gurtai didn't take advantage of the situation to pacify the entire land of Liaodong? The opportunity I created for that old boy is a once-in-a-lifetime chance..." Zhu Youjian frowned slightly and muttered.

Miss Hongliu covered her mouth and smiled, reached into her bosom, took out a roll of paper and handed it over, but it was a newly received "telegram".

"Mao Wenlong, start to send troops out of Dongjiang Town, what the soldiers are pointing at... is Shengjing?"

Zhu Youjian looked at the 'telegram' in his hand with a strange expression on his face.

This Mao Wenlong, what do you want to do?Could it be that you really want to rebel?
He took the opportunity to attack Shengjing. On the surface, he was taking advantage of the good situation in Liaodong to deal a fatal blow to Jiannu, but the problem was... Mao Wenlong was purely an accident in the idiot emperor's dish.

To put it bluntly, it's just adding to the chaos.

"What's the situation with Wu Xiang and Zu Dashou?" Zhu Youjian asked.

"The soldiers and horses are rectified over there. It seems that troops will be sent to attack Shengjing soon." Miss Hongliu said.

Zhu Youjian nodded, pondered a few times, and said, "Pass down an order to Sun Chengzong to order him to strengthen the Shanhaiguan defense line to prevent dogs from jumping over the wall in a hurry."

"In addition, pass the decree to Mao Yuanyi, saying that his chess pieces will soon be used, don't hide in the Xi'an mansion and eat mutton steamed buns, be careful that I will cut his body!"

"Dog jumping over the wall in a hurry?" Miss Hongliu asked: "To prevent anyone from jumping over the wall in a hurry? Under the powerful offensive of Mao Wenlong, Wu Xiang, Zu Dashou and others, the [-] to [-] cavalry in the Jiannu area are simply difficult to resist..."

"It's not Jiannu, it's Liaoxi General." Zhu Youjian said casually.

"Liaoxi general?"

Miss Hongliu was stunned for a moment, and then she realized that it turned out that what this young master was guarding against was actually the "insiders" of Liaoxi generals, not Mang Gurtai who was a slave...

……

Thousands of miles away, on the vast snowfield.

In Lord Jierhalangbeile's large tent of the Chinese army, firewood was burning vigorously. In the tent, the smell of meat and wine filled the nostrils. Several northern barbarian women were dancing before the banquet.

Ji'erhalangbeile sat in the middle, with a majestic smile on his face, and frequently raised his bowl to drink with the leaders, patriarchs, and warriors of the wild tribes in the Jurchen territory of the East China Sea.

From time to time, bursts of laughter came from the big tent.

"Come on, come on, Ben Belle presents you another bowl of wine."

"Please, Lord Belle!"

"I wish Lord Heshuobile a successful start, sweeping away Liaodong, and recovering Luding Mountain!"

"Please!"

After drinking more than a dozen bowls of strong wine, some leaders, patriarchs and warriors of the savage tribe were already drunk, staggering, and couldn't even sit still, but they had to stand up and toast the Lord Baylor who was a slave.

There was a loud crash.

More than a dozen warriors fell to the ground, still urging them to drink loudly.

"Leaders, patriarchs and warriors, you have contributed a lot to the sweep of Liaodong this time. When my emperor Mang Gurtai breaks through the Shanhai Pass, raises his troops to go south, and destroys the Han people's millions of miles of rivers and mountains, you must join my emperor. Advance and retreat, share this splendid world!"

Jierhalangbeile drank the most and looked very drunk. Holding a huge wine jar, he stood up unsteadily.

"Master Heshuo Baylor made the first contribution!"

"Master Heshuo Belle is mighty!"

……

There was a burst of cheers from the audience, which made this Lord Heshuobeile more happy, couldn't help laughing wildly, and lifted the wine jar.

ton ton ton ton

Half a jar of spirits was poured into his belly.

"When we completely conquer Kuwu Island this time, Benbeile will definitely recommend you to be conferred by my emperor Mang Gurtai. From now on, in this land of Liaodong, in Chahar, and in the Waikalka Grassland..."

boom!
Suddenly, there was an earth-shattering loud noise outside, and the earth convulsed.

In the big tent, everyone's heart palpitations.

"What happened? Is it the direction of the Firearms Battalion? These dog slaves, why are they so careless!" Jierhalanbeile, with drunken eyes, threw the wine jar on the ground with a snap, picked up the whip and roared angrily:
"Take down Tong Tubian, the commander of the Firearms Battalion!"

"Fifty lashes, half a year's pay..."

Suddenly, just when everyone was wondering, a scout came galloping on horseback.

"Report!"

"Master Zierhalang Baylor, something is wrong..."
