I will hold high the dragon flag in the world of the heavens

Chapter 34 Shanhaiguan Changes Owners

The artillery flashed deadly.

bang~
A cannonball disappeared with a piercing scream!

The massive artillery shells fell and exploded 50 meters in front of the Shanhaiguan City Gate.

Accompanied by dull loud noises and splashing dust, a deep pit appeared in front of everyone.

The soldiers in Shanhaiguan saw the power of the shelling, and their morale was shaken, which dropped to freezing point.

And the artillery instructor a few kilometers away, after seeing the specific shooting position, scolded his mother directly.

"I've eaten so much food for nothing, and I can go to grandma's house with a cannonball... After the battle today, everyone's food will be halved!"

After scolding people, the instructor continued to wave: "Adjust the parameters and continue to launch!"

"As ordered!"

Hearing the coach's punishment, the artillerymen of the new army grimaced and continued to adjust the shooting parameters, preparing to fire.

swoosh~
The second shell hit the city gate tower smoothly.

The morale of the Shanhaiguan defenders was immediately thrown into chaos when they were bombarded by this cross-age weapon.

After a while, the terrifying artillery began to bombard in turn.

Regardless of the fact that there were only more than 20 shells, they blew up the Shanhaiguan defenders, and their morale was directly blown to pieces.

"God's punishment! It's God's punishment!"

"Woooooo~ Mom~ I want to go home."

"It's the emperor who punished us!"

"Everyone stand shoulder to shoulder with me, General Wu Xiang rebelled!"

Seeing the chaos in Shanhaiguan, the artillerymen switched ammunition mercilessly.

Soon, tear gas and smoke bombs were thrown at the city wall of Shanhaiguan.

The pungent smoke bombs concentrated in front of a section of the city wall in Shanhaiguan, turning a section into an unstoppable Jedi.

The artillery attack caused Shanhaiguan to become chaotic again, and the defending soldiers suddenly lost their combat capabilities.

Chen Mu led five people and started the running mode under the watchful eyes of more than 1000 trainees.

After arriving at the pass, the steel rope danced and jumped up the Shanhaiguan tower.

Da Da Da~
"what!"

"No."

The shouts of killing and the sound of rifle fire immediately resounded through the city tower.

5 minute later~
The city gate of Shanhaiguan was opened from the inside, and Chen Mu and others came out covered in blood.

Shanhaiguan... broken.

Behind them, Wu Xiang who was tied up followed a group of dejected generals.

Afterwards, the newly trained army began to enter Shanhaiguan, controlling all the main roads and gates of the city!
Half a quarter of an hour later, some guards in Shanhaiguan reported to Amway, and began to gather for street fighting, fighting to the death.

"Wu Xiang colluded with Liaodong to build slaves, participated in the conspiracy and put down his arms. We only punish the evil leaders."

"Only kill the villain!"

Chen Mu held up the loudspeaker and continued to shout: "Also, those who captured the Wu family can make up for their crimes and be exonerated from previous crimes."

Many generals and soldiers in Wu Xiang's family were shaken after saying this many times.

But many people choose to die rather than surrender.

Hundreds of Guan Ning cavalry rode towards Chen Mu.

"Kill, avenge the Patriarch!"

"Avenge the Patriarch!"

Looking at the cavalry rushing over recklessly, Chen Mu sighed and shook his head: "You are stubborn, kill!"

With a wave of his hand, three rows of musketeers hit and opened fire.

The firing speed of the new musket was almost equal to that of a bolt-action rifle, and the bullets fired by the three rows of soldiers formed a barrage of death.

Bang!Bang!Bang!
The gunshots continued, and the forward Guan Ning cavalry fell to the ground screaming like they were cutting wheat.

Blood spattered, and countless shrill screams resounded.

This 30-meter-wide street close to the General Wu's Mansion has directly turned into a purgatory on earth!

Soon, hundreds of loyal Wu family's children turned into corpses!

For the first time, the newly trained army showed its fangs.

After winning the first battle, these recruits gained confidence and then acted with each other as a century.

Line up to fire and line up to kill any enemy who dares to raise a knife.

Soon, after the new army killed more than 1000 Guanning iron cavalry and shouted loudly for countless times to kill the evil leaders, calm gradually returned to the city of Shanhaiguan.

Subsequently, Zhang Jin led 1000 new troops to screen the Wu family's children and ordinary soldiers in detail.

Some people buried pots for cooking and gathered the wounded.

In addition, there are hundreds of households and small banners quickly enforcing discipline in Shanhaiguan City.

Kill the bastard who sneaked and smashed in the chaos.

Then, another officer sent an order stating that the money and food owed to everyone would be distributed the next day.

But it is necessary to report whether Wu Jia and Shanhaiguan generals embezzled public funds and military pay.

Of course, the more other crimes, the better!
Many grassroots soldiers in Shanhaiguan were overwhelmed by the name of Great Mingqi and the powerful fighting power of Chen Mu's new army, and soon returned.

General Wu's Mansion.

Chen Mu sat in the first place, and Wu Xiang and other direct descendants of the Wu family knelt below him.

"Wu Zongbing, what a great battle! If you don't respect the Holy Majesty, it's fine to attack the imperial envoys, and you dare to deceive the generals of Shanhaiguan to join Jiannu. Hehe, you can be regarded as a celebrity in the annals of history."

"Pooh!"

Wu Xiang spat, and stared at Chen Mu with hatred eyes.

"Huangkou boy, if you didn't kill my love, how could I be like this?"

Looking at Wu Xiang who wished to swallow him, Chen Mu sneered: "Hey, that means you won't rebel if you don't kill your son?"

As he spoke, he produced a ledger.

"Wu Zongbing, you are really a good general of the Ming Dynasty! You have guarded Shanhaiguan in Liaodong for decades, tell me what you have done?"

Chen Mu flipped through the ledger casually: "Tsk tsk, buying and selling girls are all small, raising more than 2000 families and children, everyone is well-equipped with armor, bows, horses and weapons, but your group of men are you and others! Tsk tsk, and, with Jiannu resells food in exchange for ginseng and valuables, oh, there are also a lot of ironware and salt. Are you saying that these should not be held accountable?"

"If you want to add a crime, why bother!"

"When death is imminent, you dare to quibble!"

Hearing this, Wu Xiang laughed loudly: "Death is imminent? Hahaha... You are the ones who are dying! Hahaha... Anyway, I am not at a loss. As long as you kill me, the world will be in chaos. Hahaha..."

Looking at Wu Xiang who was laughing wildly, Chen Mu frowned slightly.

Is this Wu Xiang crazy, or does he rely on something else?
"Oh, tell me how we ended up dying?"

Wu Xiang just laughed wildly, looked at Chen Mu and the others viciously, and said nothing.

Shen Lian next to him couldn't sit still anymore, he got up and saluted: "Uncle, our Jin Yiwei has a lot of means to let Zongbing Wu try something new."

Chen Mu raised his brows, and then looked at Wu Xiang: "Mr. Wu, you should know the tactics of Zhao Prison and Dongchang Fanzi, right? Do you want to suffer more, or speak out?"

Wu Xiang squinted her eyes, looked at Shen Lian with a bad expression, and then at Dongchang fanzi, feeling chills in her heart.

The names of Zhao Prison and Dongchang Fanzi are like thunder.

He had already heard that he had entered that ghostly place, so he couldn't come out decently.

Wu Xiang quickly figured it out: "Uncle Polu, for the sake of my dedication all these years, give me face."

Afterwards, Wu Xiang told why he had ambushed and attacked Chen Mu, as well as some backhands.

Before Wu Sangui arrived in the capital, he arranged several hidden hands.Just in case something unexpected happened to him, he let his father Wu Xiang know about his safety, and asked Wu Xiang to come up with contingency strategies as quickly as possible.

Chen Mu's manpower is insufficient, and the eunuchs have a lot of bad habits.

Although they sealed off the gates of the capital, they did not block the lowly people who poured night incense every day.

After carefully listening to Wu Xiang's answer, and watching Shen Lian and others record his words in the book, Chen Mu waved his hand: "Okay, I understand. Tell me why we are dying."

Wu Xiang sighed heavily, and began to speak slowly.

The Wu family was originally a Zhongliang family!
But the civil servants of the Ming court were too incompetent.

Intrigue, greed for credit!
If you lose the battle, let Jiangmen take the blame.

Won the battle and snatched the sergeant's credit

Ming officials have done too many unpopular things!

In order to protect themselves and control their own power, the Wu family has done many things that cost thousands of dollars over the years.

Not only the Wu family, but most of the generals on the Nine Sides did this.

It's the difference between doing more and doing less!
The Wu family has been living with their hearts in these years.

A few days ago, Shanxi merchants were suddenly raided, and one-third of the generals at the border were wiped out.This made countless fallen heads put everyone in the frontier army's corrupt generals at risk.

Secretly, a large number of generals guarding Liaodong were secretly united.

And Shanhaiguan is an introduction.

As long as something went wrong on Wu Xiang's side, something unexpected happened.

The other defense areas in Liaodong are bound to be in chaos.

The border defense of Ming Dynasty will also be in danger!

Hearing Wu Xiang's words, the faces of the Daming people present became extremely ugly.

The stability of the border defense is the solid foundation of the Ming Dynasty. With the corruption of the guard system, the elite of the Nine Frontiers is the essence of the border defense of the Ming Dynasty.

If all the soldiers on the nine sides rebelled, then Daming would really be in danger!

"That means all of you unite and join the big family of rebels?"

Wu Xiang nodded: "No, this is called Qingjun side!"

Chen Mu laughed immediately.

"Are you paying off the king's side? Tsk tsk~ Mr. Wu, you avoid the important and ignore the minor. You only said that the soldiers on the nine sides rebelled, but you forgot the most important force?"
