All Heavens: Sharing Talents with Countless Mes
Chapter 202 A distinguished guest is coming! Qi Jiajun’s magic weapon for victory!
The capital is a very interesting place.
In the past, under the emperor's control, it was difficult for outside news to come in. There has always been an atmosphere of singing and dancing here, and not much has changed.
But this time, the news of the emperor's death was still tightly controlled. Before the outside world got the news, the imperial court completed the funeral in a very short time.
But even in this situation where I couldn't get in or get out, an earth-shattering news came from Jinling City, and it spread throughout the capital overnight, making everyone in the city aware of it!
Jinling City was attacked by the demon clan. The wise king guarded the city gate alone and killed two demon kings of the demon clan.
The legendary demon king!
In the consciousness of the people in the capital, the Demon King only exists in the words of elders to scare children, such as "If you don't obey again, the Demon King will take you away."
But now, the Demon King has actually appeared in the newspaper, and it has spread throughout the capital at an extremely fast speed.
People have to believe that the Demon King...is real!
The only thing that can make people doubt the authenticity of Di's report is the information that the wise king killed the two demon kings. This is more shocking than the fact that the demon kings themselves actually exist.
That virtuous king, whose reputation as a playboy was "renowned" in the capital, was actually capable of killing two demon kings?
Brother, are you sure you wrote it correctly?
If people were asked to choose between two news: the real existence of the Demon King and the news that the Wise King killed the Demon King, which one was false, everyone would choose the latter without hesitation.
Anyone who is a local in the capital will, without exception, have strong doubts about this.
According to normal development, after the news comes out, the capital will be in a state of uproar. Maybe someone will go to the palace to denounce the good king for taking credit from others.
But things didn't go in that direction.
Because Qi Jiguang, the general guarding the town of Jinling, entered the capital in full view of everyone, holding a Ten Thousand People Umbrella.
Even the people in the capital who had little information knew who Qi Jiguang was.
A great hero recognized by the entire country and nation!
Even Guo Bujing, who is known as the "giant hero" by the world, is inferior to him. More appropriately, Guo Bujing admires him very much.
It was such a person who came to Beijing to express gratitude on behalf of the people of Jinling City, holding the Ten Thousand People Umbrella.
It is impossible to imitate the Ten Thousand People Umbrella, because it is made by masters of Buddhism and Taoism from the lights of ten thousand families. The so-called lights of ten thousand families represent the most sincere gratitude in the hearts of the people.
The light is the fire of the heart.
This object is the only treasure that can prevent demons from hiding since the great change of heaven and earth. If a demon enters the city, the Umbrella of All Peoples will automatically open and illuminate the whole city with the light of the heart fire.
As soon as they entered the capital, the Wanmin Umbrella reacted, took out of Qi Jiguang's hand, and slowly flew out. Qi Jiguang did not dare to neglect, and led some of the Qi Family Army to follow closely.
Many onlookers followed them from a distance to watch the fun.
……
The weather is nice today, and a side stove is being made in the palace.
Lu Xiaofeng was eating hot pot and singing when she suddenly realized that it was getting dark. She looked up and saw an umbrella floating above her head, still shining...
The chopsticks slipped from his hand, and his eyes were a little dull, "What is this?"
Li Gexiao, who was a former Jinyi Guardsman, had seen the Wanmin Umbrella before. When he was still a member of a hundred households, he had seen the scene in the south where Wanmin knelt down to send their parents off to officials.
It's a pity that the civil servant was killed by a traitor. A good official with a universal umbrella did not die at the hands of a demon, but at the hands of his own family.
This incident greatly shocked Li Gexiao at the time. He didn't even know for a while whether it was the demon or the human being who was more evil.
"This is the Ten Thousand People Umbrella, made from the lights of thousands of families. It can be said to be the most precious treasure in the world..."
Li Gexiao talked about the origin of the Wanmin Umbrella.
"I've heard of it, but never seen it. It turns out this is the Wanmin Umbrella."
Lu Xiaofeng circled around the Wanmin Umbrella in mid-air, almost making Chu Yang dizzy. Fortunately, at this moment, the Wanmin Umbrella slowly closed and fell into Chu Yang's arms.
Lu Xiaofeng and Li Gexiao looked at Chu Yang at the same time.
"My lord, is this yours?" Li Gexiao said in surprise, "Why have I never seen it before?"
"What a coincidence, I haven't seen it before." Chu Yang picked up the Wanmin Umbrella, looked at it, and then said, "I don't know who this belongs to."
Lu Xiaofeng was thoughtful and showed a mysterious smile, "I guess there are distinguished guests coming today."
"Who is it?" Li Gexiao asked curiously.
Lu Xiaofeng, however, kept it secret and refused to tell him.
Call ~
A gust of wind blew through the yard.
"I worked so hard for you that I was as tired as a dead dog, but you guys are here cooking meat and eating it. Do you have my share?"
A ghostly figure suddenly appeared next to Lu Xiaofeng, and her slender fingers grabbed the meat in his bowl.
Lu Xiaofeng, with quick eyes and quick hands, used her chopsticks to use her unique skill to pinch the "meat thief"'s hand with one sharp finger.
"Monkey, don't you know you have to wash your hands before eating? Do you really think you are a monkey?" Lu Xiaofeng looked at Sikong Zhaixing in disgust.
The dusty Sikong Zhaixing seemed to be angry. He used his strength to break free from the chopsticks, and then firmly reached out to dig out the meat in Lu Xiaofeng's bowl.
The two started fighting like this.
The meat in the bowl was swaying like a fishing boat on the sea. It didn't last long before it flew out. Li Ge smiled and had quick eyes and hands. He jumped up to catch the meat and put it into his mouth with chopsticks.
Pingbai picked up a piece of fragrant meat, Li Gexiaomei's eyes narrowed, and he joked: "When the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman benefits."
Chu Yang also smiled and said: "For you, it is true that distinguished guests come to your door, and you can still make money."
"He's a shitty guest!" Lu Xiaofeng said with a sullen look on his face: "How can any guest come in to grab meat?"
Chu Yang became curious, "So the distinguished guest is someone else?"
Sikong Zhaixing rolled his eyes and spoke quickly: "Your Majesty, I know that your distinguished guest is..."
Before he finished speaking, everyone heard the old housekeeper's shout.
"My lord, please come out and take a look. There are many people outside. I'm afraid they are not here to cause trouble for us. Alas, what have you been doing out these days?"
The old housekeeper was angry and anxious, fearing that the people outside the door would attack the palace. There were only a few useless servants in the huge palace, not even a guard, so something would happen.
Chu Yang frowned slightly, stood up and walked towards the gate of the palace.
Li Gexiao and Lu Xiaofeng put down their bowls and chopsticks and followed Chu Yang. Their expressions were different. Lu Xiaofeng had a smile in his eyes, as if he felt something good was happening.
Li Gexiao had a serious look on his face.
Before he even got close to the door, Chu Yang heard the commotion outside. He turned to the old housekeeper and said, "Open the door and let me see what's going on."
The old housekeeper ordered the porter to open the door. The porter pushed the door tremblingly, and with a creak, the palace door slowly opened.
The smell of blood hit his face, and even more fierce was the evil smell of the battlefield, like the icy wind from the north blowing on his face.
Appearing in front of Chu Yang was a big man wearing armor. His face was weathered, his lips were a little chapped, his armor was riddled with holes, but his eyes were bright.
"Last General Qi Jiguang, on behalf of all the people in Jinling City, I would like to thank you, Your Majesty, for your life-saving grace!"
Chu Yang finally met Qi Jiguang, the great hero known by word of mouth.
The opponent's figure is thinner than expected, but he can hold up the armor. His whole aura is like a tiger staring at you coldly.
The eyes are sharp, but not mixed with other emotions, very clean.
If ordinary people looked at each other with such eyes, they would probably start to tremble in their hearts.
"General Qi, there are a lot of people outside. Please lead your subordinates into the palace to have a chat." Chu Yang smiled and leaned forward to welcome Qi Jiguang and the Qi family army into the palace.
"The last general takes orders."
Qi Jiguang bowed and said, leading the soldiers behind him into the palace in an orderly manner.
The gate of the palace was quickly closed again, but the people who were watching the excitement still refused to leave. Not only did the discussion not disappear, but it intensified.
"General Qi has entered the palace. The Wanmin Umbrella really belongs to the wise king!"
"God, I can't see the world clearly..."
"Is the news that the wise king killed two demon kings true?!"
"How old is he this year? Even Zhuge Shenhou doesn't have such achievements! Isn't he the number one martial artist in the world?"
"The King Xian is so talented in martial arts, why did he have to be decadent for so many years? He got a lot of notoriety for nothing!"
"You don't know this, right? I have a brother who works in the palace and heard a secret that King Xian was murdered by other princes when he was a child..."
There are endless rumors, some true and some false, but the people don't care, they just treat them as something to talk about after dinner.
But one thing is for sure.
From now on, the unbearable past events of King Xian will be mentioned less and less frequently, but they will not be forgotten by people. Instead, they will become a deeper "little secret".
When they reach the age of teasing their grandson, everyone will smile and say to their grandson: "Do you know what our emperor was like when he was young?"
……
Chu Yang led Qi Jiajun to sit down in the yard. Looking at them covered in dust, he couldn't help but feel a little distressed and respectful. This is what the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty should be like, not ruffians who only exploit the people.
"You just came down from the battlefield? What's the situation in the south? Did any monsters come to attack the city after I left?"
Chu Yang asked three questions in one breath, which even Qi Jiguang was stunned for a moment.
Seeing Chu Yang's sincere gaze, Qi Jiguang's tone and eyes became serious, "Your Majesty, don't worry, the situation in the south is quite stable. Ever since Your Majesty killed the two demon kings, the demon clan has never appeared near Wanglong City again."
"It's embarrassing to say that all our injuries are the result of fighting with our own family members."
Chu Yang seemed to have expected this kind of thing, and sighed: "How many generals guarding the city in the south rebelled?"
Qi Jiguang replied: "About 70% of them are all standing on their own hills. I feel that the court has too much time to take care of itself and has no spare power to suppress them."
Chu Yang shook his head and said with a smile: "General Qi, don't have any scruples. To be bold, how many percent is it?"
Qi Jiguang clenched his fists and gritted his teeth: "Ninety percent!"
Li Gexiao and Lu Xiaofeng gasped. What is the concept of 90%? It means that almost all the generals in the south have chosen to rebel.
"Pretty much what I thought."
Chu Yang was not too panicked, because strictly speaking, this world was completely different from the Ming Dynasty in history.
Due to the threat of the monster clan, the power in the hands of military generals is very great. They are the real leaders, just like Qi Jiguang's unshakable position in Jinling City.
The people all over the city relied on the general and his soldiers to survive in troubled times. The imperial court was too far away for the local people, so far away that it had no practical significance.
It is almost zero-cost for military generals to rebel, but it has never been necessary. After all, the 800,000 forbidden troops in the capital are there.
Nowadays, the actions of the demon clan have spread throughout the south. These generals are sure that the imperial court is busy fighting against the demon clan and cannot spare any extra troops to wipe them out.
Most people even think that the Ming Dynasty will definitely lose, and they are privately studying what type of demon will be the most cost-effective in the future.
So rebellion became a matter of course.
This is why Chu Yang wants to deal with the south immediately instead of rushing to the aid of Wanli Xuanbing City at the northern border.
The emperor had only been buried for a few days, and they were so impatient.
Chu Yang asked: "Is Jinling City already the target of public criticism at this moment?"
Qi Jiguang smiled and said: "In just a few days, hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses gathered at the city, but they were all beaten back by the Qi army. Now we can rest for a while."
After saying this, the soldiers behind Qi Jiguang all puffed up their chests proudly.
"The Qi Family Army is indeed worthy of its reputation and is indeed the most powerful army in the Ming Dynasty." Chu Yang first praised and then asked: "But since the situation is urgent, why did General Qi choose to enter Beijing at this time?"
Qi Jiguang clasped his fists and said, "In addition to sending the Ten Thousand People Umbrella to the prince, I am also here to escort a batch of newly developed ordnance to support the north."
"The demon clan is heading north, and the situation in the north will soon be the same as in the south. Fighting the demon clan, with weapons, you can get twice the result with half the effort."
Chu Yang couldn't help but be moved.
When discussing decisions in the Hall of Supreme Harmony a few days ago, Sheng Yayu mentioned the weapons of the Qi Army, thinking that they were a weapon to help defend the city at the border, but this proposal was still rejected.
Because from the beginning, Chu Yang's goal was not only to reorganize the mountains and rivers of the south, but also to fight further, the Qi Army's combat capabilities could not be weakened in the slightest.
Now Qi Jiguang personally escorted the ordnance to Beijing to assist the north, even at the expense of weakening the combat capabilities of his own troops.
The dedication for the country and the people is evident.
But his arrival gave Chu Yang a new idea.
Chu Yang asked: "Qi Jiajun's new firearms are famous all over the world. I would like to ask General Qi, are your new weapons still firearms?"
Speaking of new firearms, Qi Jiguang replied excitedly: "Back to your lord, yes, the craftsmen and formation masters of the firearms camp stayed up all night and forgot to eat and sleep for the new firearms, just to let the human race take advantage of it in the war with the monster race. Advantage."
"The greatest threat to the army is often not the big demon or the demon king, but millions of demon beasts, and even larger numbers of beasts!"
"Once they charge into the formation, even if the soldiers take advantage of the power of the battle formation to wait for work, the final result will be heavy losses."
"So before the two sides come into contact, we need to use firearms to reduce the number of monsters and wild beasts, so that they can become chaotic and lose their numerical advantage. It is often difficult for the big monsters to break through the battle formation. It is only a matter of time before the monsters lose the war. "
Use fire suppression to solve the advantage of the sea of beasts. Those beasts with low intelligence do not know how to cooperate and can only rely on instinct to attack. The results can be imagined.
Thinking of this, Chu Yang smiled mysteriously.
"General Qi, I also know a little bit about firearms, why don't we talk about it."
