I am the king of the dead

"What's his fourth child! But the crown prince regained the throne. Not only was he disobedient, but he also wanted to attack and kill Gu. The attack failed, and he fled Qinghua, resisted in the corner, and refused to obey the king's order! Let Gu reconcile with him?"

Li Yimin waved his hands and said loudly: "Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

Li Yimin once planned to reconcile with Li Sicheng and make a fortune together. Li Sicheng sent Ding Lie to negotiate. As a result, Mo Zhi, the confidant of Gongbian and Li Yimin's right-hand man, led the guards to attack and kill him, and was killed instead.

Since then, the collisions and frictions between Shenglong and Qinghua have increased day by day, causing heavy casualties. If Li Yimin reconciles with the fourth child at this time, he may be killed in Shenglong City before the reconciliation.

Li Yimin raised his head halfway and said: "Let's take the middle strategy, give up the sea route, and stick to Lang Son."

"Taiwei! How is my preparation for the Dragon Army?"

Liu Pu thought for a while and said, "Everything is going according to plan."

It's just that this plan is Liu Pu's plan to build a palace for the Ming emperor. As for where the Shenglong Army is, of course the Shenglong Army is in Shenglong City.

"That's good." Li Yimin looked at Qinghua and said suddenly: "Liu Taiwei, do you want to go to the imperial conquest and personally suppress Qinghua's rebellion, so as to prevent Qinghua from cooperating with the Ming army when it invades?" ?”

Liu Pu looked at Li Yimin blankly, is this guy serious?

To put down the rebellion of the vassal kings, in the Ming Dynasty, of course, the emperor had to personally conquest, but for Annan, this was too difficult to achieve.

Li Yimin conquered it himself, and then someone entered the palace in Shenglong City and proclaimed himself emperor.Li Yimin's throne is not secure, it is precarious and precarious, and he wants to conquer it himself?

"Inappropriate." Liu Pu said concisely and confidently: "Your Majesty, when the Ming army is defeated, it will not be too late for us to plan to pacify Qinghua. The Ming army is urgent, and Qinghua is light."

Li Yimin said with great worry: "Then if the fourth brother sneaks into Shenglong City, I will be safe... I will not be safe in the Annan King's Capital?"

"Your Majesty, don't worry, the fourth son can't get in." Liu Pu said confidently, "The Holy Majesty is the king of Annan, and the fourth son is just a vassal king who lives in a single family. There has never been a case of rebellion by a vassal king since ancient times."

Li Yimin immediately said: "Isn't Emperor Taizong of the Ming Dynasty a rule?"

Liu Pu's face darkened in an instant. Although Li Sicheng is also the fourth child, what kind of thing is he?On a par with Emperor Taizong Wen, Li Sicheng is also worthy?

Liu Pu was so hung up on saying it directly, that he changed his tone and said, "The Holy One is not Emperor Jianwen."

"That's true." Li Yimin finally nodded in satisfaction, letting go of his worries.

After Li Yimin left Thang Long Imperial City and decided on a strategy, he naturally didn't have to stay in this horrible place.

"Has Lieutenant Liu left?" Li Yimin asked his eunuch, the eunuch looked at the door, then pulled his hem and said with a smile on his face: "Let's go, Liu Taiwei has already left."

Li Yimin straightened up immediately, pointed to a few palace maids and said, "You guys come here and play bowstring with me!"

The terrified scream of the palace maid spread far away, and just reached Liu Pu's ears.

Liu Pu sighed, shook his head heavily, walked out of the imperial city, and returned to Taiwei's mansion.

Yuan Bin and Tang Xing were playing chess under the old willow tree, and the two maids waved big cattail fans to repel mosquitoes.

"You stinky chess player, you always regret your moves, don't play anymore, don't play any more." Tang Xing saw that the game was lost, so he gave up directly, but he still refused to admit defeat.

Yuan Bin put away the chessboard and said to Liu Pu, "You're back? What is Li Yimin doing?"

Liu Pu told what he had seen and heard in the palace from beginning to end.

Tang Xing shivered suddenly, looked at Yuan Bin and asked, "If Your Majesty tied three bowstrings to you and asked someone to play you, how would you treat it?"

Yuan Bin said nonchalantly: "That's impossible, what kind of wise and powerful person is Your Majesty?"

"Besides, Your Majesty is so busy. Your Majesty will only find it boring to torture people. With that kind of time, Your Majesty might as well approve a few memorials."

"If I do something wrong, His Majesty doesn't need to do anything. I will kill myself to thank Your Majesty for His grace."

"That's true." Tang Xing replied cheerfully.

Liu Pu closed his eyes and fell silent. It was the decision he regretted the most in his life to agree to Sun Jizong's participation in the grand event. If he had been loyal to His Majesty from the beginning to the end, how could he be so angry now?Put up with an idiot like Li Yimin?What pleasure should it be to work in His Majesty's hands?

Tang Xing looked at Kanyu map, shook his head and said: "Li Yimin is going to fight Daming in Lang Son, he is really kind."

The deposed prince Li Yimin has always been very courageous, he dared to go to Songjiang Mansion to meet His Majesty as an envoy of the Annan Kingdom, and asked His Majesty to support his Gongbian, and when he returned to Shenglong City, he went straight to Gongbian and became the King of Annan, as always audacity.

Head-to-head with the Ming army, did you ask the opinions of the Wala people?The Wala people didn't even have the guts to go west. Where did Annan have the confidence?

Liu Pu shook out a piece of silk from his sleeve and said: "Lang Son's terrain is complicated, and the mountain roads are rugged. The Ming army came from a long distance, and I am afraid that some places will stumble. I have a defense map of Lang Son here, and Lang Son is marked on it. Terrain, as well as water sources, open posts and secret posts, scout patrols, etc."

"The Daming pier is far away and Hou Han is not afraid of death. As shown in the picture, it can be verified."

Yuan Bin took the picture, frowned and said, "Where did you get this thing?"

Lang Son is a battleground for military strategists. Winning Lang Son is equivalent to winning Annan. This map is a secret among secrets. After a long time of activities, they have not found out where this thing is hidden.

For example, the granary. Daming's Duntai Yuanhou sent dozens of people to surprise the granary of Lang Son's camp. What else did Annan's army in Lang Son fight?

Liu Pu pointed to the place where the seal was placed and said: "Li Yimin didn't know it was taken from Shenglong Palace."

Chapter 778 Obedience and obedience;

"It's so rotten." Tang Xing said with a little emotion.

But Yuan Bin didn't say a word, and he was bored for a long time before he said: "Actually, during the orthodox years, the imperial palace of Ming Dynasty was also like this."

Strictly speaking, Tang Xing was promoted from the Jingying to Jinyiwei after the battle of the capital, and after the emperor accepted Tang Guifei, Tang Xing became the commander of the Jinyiwei who didn't care.

Tang Xing didn't know about the Daming Palace during the Zhengtong period, but Yuan Bin did.

The corruption of the Daming Imperial Palace during the Zhengtong period is no different from the current Shenglong Imperial City, one is bigger and the other is smaller.

"Yes." Liu Pu, as the top nobleman of the Ming Dynasty, nodded in agreement with Yuan Bin's words. What Liu Pu did in Annan Kingdom today was actually what he did when he was in the capital.

"Everyone is digging the foundation. If you dig like this, won't it collapse?" Tang Xing felt unbelievable. He is a relative of the emperor, but he spends most of his time outside freely and rarely participates in internal strife in the court. He faced this This phenomenon is very puzzling.

Yuan Bin said disapprovingly, "Isn't there now? Your Majesty just won't allow it."

"Your Majesty won't let them, so they won't dig?" Liu Pu immediately said, "There are still people digging, but His Majesty found out and punished him by the Ming Dynasty. For example, Hu Lian, the fourth-rank official Jingguan, why don’t you pull out the carrots and bring out the mud?”

Liu Pu was very concerned about the state affairs of Ming Dynasty, and he even knew the news that Hu Lian, the censor of Qiandu, had fallen.

Liu Pu, like Sun Zhong, knew that they were moths, supporting Daming's backbone, not their kind.

Yuan Bin took out the silk and began to copy the geomancy map provided by Liu Pu. This information was extremely important to Daming, and he sent several copies to the Ming army.

"Isn't Lieutenant Liu afraid? If our Kanyu map is intercepted, Li Yimin will guess Liu Taiwei right away, isn't he going to suffer?" Tang Xing asked while looking at the Kanyu map.

Liu Pu said with a strange face, "Don't be afraid, because Li Yimin doesn't know it's me."

"This map was taken out by eunuchs. No one knows who got it. In other words, it could be in anyone's hands. Li Yimin didn't even know who took it out. He never Where to check?"

"Don't worry about giving it away boldly. If it's really not good, it's engraved and printed all over the city. Every household in Shenglong City has this map. How can he, Li Yimin, check it?"

Tang Xing's eyes widened and he asked, "Has Taiwei Liu ever read?"

Liu Pu didn't understand, so he said: "I have read it."

Tang Xing suddenly understood and said, "No wonder, scholars play dirty."

When Yuan Bin heard it, he became happy. He thought of Li Bing, the Japanese envoy. Li Bing was a poisonous man. Liu Pu also smiled and shook his head. Before doing this matter, he had already thought about how to get rid of himself. Relationship.

Do the people in Shenglong Palace really know that they are working for Liu Pu?

Yuan Bin copied the Kanyu map and handed it to Duntai Yuanhou and sent it to Zhennan Pass.

Three days later, Yu Qian, who had already arrived at Zhennan Pass, received this secret report. After Chen Mao asked the army to copy the Chinese documents, he handed it over to the Ye Bu Shou who were active in Zhennan Pass for investigation, and it was accurate.

"This Liu Pu, alas." Marquis of Ningyang Chen Mao held the map of Langshan Mansion in his hand, shook his head and said, "If I knew today, why bother? In fact, His Majesty is even more eloquent than Emperor Wen."

Chen Mao said the fact that His Majesty is easier to speak.

Before the Ming Dynasty, ships with three masts and above were banned. During the Yongle period, Wang Ning, the son-in-law captain, was imprisoned. It was he who privately built sea-going ships, sailed to Japan, North Korea and other places, sold them, and was reported by the King of Korea. Because of this, Emperor Taizong was convicted and imprisoned.

But at the moment, Daming's power is so powerful that everyone goes to sea, who doesn't have a good merchant?

The emperor of Ming Dynasty lifted the sea ban and promoted free trade. As long as he paid six cents of the customs duty, everyone could go to the sea and seek money at will.

With Liu Pu's father, Liu Sheng, dying in the Ming Dynasty, even if His Majesty was worried that Liu Pu and Sun Zhong would get too close and would not entrust him with important tasks, he would not do anything to Liu Pu.

Sun Zhong agrees.

But they wanted to die, and they wanted to start a new stove and clear the king's side by taking advantage of the opposition of the law and the gentry's one-size-fits-all payment.

Yu Qian looked at the Tang newspaper in his hand, nodded and said: "If Liu Pu makes extraordinary achievements, His Majesty will save him from death and make him a Marquis Overseas."

"Your Majesty has been wronged."

For the benefit of Daming, His Majesty gave Liu Pu a chance to reform himself. His Majesty chose to forgive the traitor. Isn't His Majesty wronged by this matter?

After having an accurate map, the Lang Son Battle of Daming finally made up for the last shortcoming.

Lang Son is located in the south of Guangxi Province, about 260 miles from Zhennan Pass and [-] miles from Thang Long City.

The northern plain of Lang Son is a mountainous area in northern Vietnam with many mountains and dense forests;

To the south of Lang Son is the northern plain with criss-cross rice fields and dense water networks, which is not suitable for marching.

Lang Son is not only the transportation hub in the north of Annam, but also the barrier of Thang Long City, so its strategic location is very important.

And stationed in Lang Son is the most elite army in Annan, known as the Jinxing Army, with a total of more than [-] people. The prefectures and counties under the jurisdiction of Lang Son Prefecture have a total of one million people. , In Lang Son, Da Ming will be smashed into the sand.

"Call to Zhennanguan for breakfast, and Nanning Mansion for dinner, they really dare to say!" Chen Mao looked at the terrain on the sand table, full of anger.

Annan's scouts sent a letter to Zhennanguan, saying that they would have breakfast at Zhennanguan and dinner at Nanning Mansion.

The Ming army was still in the stage of investigation. At this time, the main general was enraged and sent troops rashly, which happened to fall into the enemy's trap.

Although Chen Mao held back his anger, he still waited until the Daming scouts returned the news before preparing for the attack.

September has slowly entered late autumn, the weather has become cooler, the mosquitoes flying in the air have finally lost all their vitality, and the miasma that perplexed the Shiwan Dashan has become somewhat cooler due to the high weather.

In mid-September, the long-prepared Ming army began to attack Lang Son Prefecture from Zhennan Pass and Beishan.

During the two tentative attacks, the Daming Army and the Jinxing Battalion guarding Lang Son had several extremely fierce confrontations. Shi Biao and others fought a bloody battle with the enemy in Qiuwen County.

On the Annan side of this battle, piles were laid in the city, and the bottom of the moat was pierced to reinforce the city defenses, and waited for it. However, Daming dispatched a total of more than 300 long and short cannons, three black dragon cannons and fifty general cannons, and the bombardment lasted for three full days. Within a quarter of an hour, the city of Qiuwen County was destroyed.

It took five full days for the two armies of Daming to advance to the city of Lang Son.

And Yu Qian looked at the corpses of the three Ming soldiers in front of him with a livid face, and at the woman who was knocked down on the ground.

The three soldiers of the Ming Dynasty who died were the guards of the Training Elephant Guard. The Training Elephant Guard was a guard station established by the Ming Dynasty in Nanning Prefecture. The original intention was to train the elephant soldiers for the Ming Dynasty to deal with the elephant soldiers in Annan. The soldiers looked fierce, but they were actually useless. Afterwards, they trained white elephants for use by the pilot vehicles.

During Daming’s attack, the three training elephant guards were responsible for escorting Daming’s grain and grass. They were thirsty and went to the farmhouse to ask for water. The old farmer fled over the wall. There is only one woman guarding the house left.

This bowl of water, the woman has poisoned, is aconitum, a plant commonly found in southern Daming and northern Vietnam, the root of which is the most poisonous and has the most bitter taste.

The three training elephant guards were accidentally tricked.

"Kill it." Yu Qian waved his hand and asked the sergeant to drag the woman to behead her.

When he saw the woman's head fell to the ground, he returned to the big tent with a stern expression.

"Yu Shaobao." Chen Mao walked into the big tent. When something like this happened, he had to communicate with the governor of military affairs first. He said with a serious face: "Our sergeants and supply lines have been suffering from the Annan people. Harassment, dead today, three Guangxi guards."

"In my opinion, when fighting abroad, whether it is the frontier army or the Beijing army, it is the Ming army."

Chen Mao has a wealth of experience in cooperating with the local guards. In many cases, the Beijing soldiers in the Beijing camp are uncles, while the guards are looked down upon.

Yu Qian nodded and said, "I know that our Daming Army has excellent military discipline. Similar to poisoning, people are arrested and sent to me before ordering them to be executed, rather than beheaded on the spot in a revenge style."

As the governor of military affairs, Yu Qian affirmed the strict military discipline of the Ming Army.

"Actually, when I was in Guangzhou Mansion, I had disagreements with His Majesty. Now it seems that Your Majesty is right." Yu Qian said with emotion.

His Majesty proved once again that His Majesty was right.

Again, Annan, a county, is not an internal matter, but a foreign matter.

Yu Qian took out a heavy memorial from his sleeve and said: "Your Majesty likes to be lenient with the enemy."

"Your Majesty once said: The meat-eaters always spare no effort to instill a point of view into the exploited laborers, that is, the wealth of the meat-eaters is the common wealth of the big guys."

"Yang Tie is grateful for Yang Xiaoshan's participation in his wedding, and he is honored. When Yang Tie thinks of the food and wealth in Yang Dashan's family, he proudly puffs up his chest. It seems that Yang Tie and Yang Shanren's family belong to the same family. Something to be proud of."

"Meat eaters always have an unrealistic fantasy, hoping that the largest number of workers will be obedient and obedient to the meat eaters; and hope that the largest number of workers will face foreign aggression. The warriors are strong and strong, they would rather bend than bend."

"But there was another grotesque appearance."

"Facing the invaders, a man who is tough will be suspected by the meat-eaters. Since he is so powerful, will he threaten the meat sacs that the meat-eaters have already divided on their plates? The meat-eaters began to suspect, and then began to persecute, I don’t feel at ease until the spine is removed.”

"At this time, in the face of foreign invaders, the meat eaters can only catch them with nothing."

"Your Majesty is talking about Da Song."

Chen Mao carefully figured out the seemingly confusing logic of this paragraph of words. These words seemed to be acting like a watch and erecting a memorial archway, trying to coax the people into becoming a solid shield against foreign invaders, but worried that the people would be close. Together, they will smash the heads of the meat eaters first.

Yue Fei was not a general, he was a farmer who was born and bred in Shaoxing. Ten years ago in Shaoxing, he made great military exploits and finally died in Dali Temple under an unwarranted name.Meng Gong was the second military general who was highly suspected. In the end, he had to resign from office with the words "rebellious obedience is not common", and died in depression.

Yu Qian continued: "Your Majesty also said that it is difficult to fool the people, but there are always a few who are fooled."
