As a salted fish, I was forced to become the teacher of all ages

Zhao Ren didn't care what he answered, and after a long while, he suddenly looked at Hua Manlou with an extremely fanatical gaze: "Brother, teach me this!"

"...Go play!"

(Happy New Year everyone!)

590 I'm Not Modesty!

Hua Manlou really didn't know much about meteorites.

To be honest, the vast majority of people will never see a meteorite falling from the sky and smashing a big hole on the ground can produce a slight earthquake that is not a crustal movement, so more people understand that meteorites fall from the sky in general. After a certain car overturned the world, a quality clone sent it to the big devil in the hands of a female psychopath, or a certain gambler blind admiral had a certain impression.

But judging from the performance, the speed of Fujitora Yixiao's meteorite skyfall is obviously different from the real meteorite skyfall - in theory, a meteorite of his size will definitely burn violently or even explode directly after entering the atmosphere, and fall to the ground It is estimated that there is no hair left, but can it fall to the ground...

Either the size or the core of the meteorite, in short, it must be different from ordinary meteorites, so when it lands, it will not only produce a violent light, but also produce a shock within a certain range, and finally there will be noise—this is what happened later. I have experienced it all over the building, which proves that light travels the fastest, followed by ground vibrations, and sound travels the slowest in the air... Cough cough, in short, the vibration and noise can be felt more than [-] miles away, it can be seen How violent is the power of this meteorite.

What is certain is that this meteorite has absolutely nothing to do with Huamanlou's expectations. It is just a coincidence...or it may be more accurate to use a miracle, even more miraculous than the history revision of Liu Xiu, the son of the plane. After all, Xiuer brought two If his reaction to the hundreds of thousands of regular troops was normal, he probably didn't think how to destroy the enemy army but how to escape, but Hua Manlou actually said this sentence, so...

"Don't panic! It was summoned by Uncle Xishan!" Zhao Ren stood on the top of the city gate with great excitement and shouted: "The meteor is falling over there!"

Hua Manlou was stunned for a moment and Zhao Ren shouted this out. What's more, many people believed this in an instant. Most people other than the guys have an idea about meteorites falling from the sky, but these days, almost everyone attributes this matter to ghosts and gods, so when someone tells them a plausible reason, they immediately believe it.

That is to say, earlier, many people thought that the miracles created by Huamanlou had touched the realm of the gods. Even in Xishanwei, a large number of people were sure that their chief was a star or a god descended from the earth, so now Zhao Ren With a single voice, it can be regarded as the implementation of this matter, so they became as excited as Zhao Ren and even became fanatical-everyone was excitedly shouting words with unknown meanings, and what the hell is the phenomenon of people passing on. After a while, the whole city of Lanzhou was boiling, and there were voices praising Xishanbo everywhere.

Hua Manlou, who came back to his senses, grabbed Zhao Ren by the neck frantically, and roared, "I didn't summon you! This is just a coincidence!"

Zhao Ren had an adoring look on his face: "Mo Qianqian..."

Hua Manlou went crazy: "I'm not being modest!"

Hua Manlou wanted to explain, and even told Zhao Ren the little knowledge he had accumulated about astronomy, because it was a bit dangerous-this fucking is a feudal dynasty with an autocratic monarchy, and the monarch under normal circumstances I will not tolerate someone who has the means to subvert their own rule, and there is no doubt that summoning meteorites is a matter of course. Who knows if you will suddenly attack the palace on a whim? ?

But the sad thing is that at this stage, there is really no way to explain it, even for Zhao Ren, who comprehended part of the law of gravity by himself, because this thing is really too advanced, at least before the heliocentric theory replaces the theory of the circle of the sky and the earth, it is quite advanced, and Without developing the first astronomical telescope in history, Hua Manlou had no way of proving that what he said was true.

After realizing this, Hua Manlou could only reiterate to Zhao Ren in pain: "In short, this is completely a coincidence, just like Emperor Guangwu's time, the enemy was more unlucky... and it is not sure whether the meteor hit or not. It's on Tummet's head!"

"I know it's a coincidence, but look..." Zhao Renpa pulled Huamanlou's hand that was holding his neck, pointed at the soldiers in the city with a smile, and said, "It only takes one sentence to raise morale and unite the army, and it can also calm them down." How cost-effective is the panic?"

This is very reasonable. After all, any unexplainable things these days will be forcibly explained by scholars, and when it comes to disasters and celestial phenomena, they are more willing to use the interpretation of heaven and man, and use extremely bad This is a reason to attack political enemies or the emperor.Therefore, it is inevitable for ordinary people to panic after seeing these things, so it is quite spiritual for Zhao Ren to attribute this thing to Huamanlou.

But Hua Manlou was taken aback when he heard the words: "You... really think so?"

Zhao Ren looked at Hua Manlou with disgust on his face: "If I hadn't seen your expression, I wouldn't be sure that I would have thought that Meteor was caused by you, but your attitude... Hmph, obviously you know how Meteor works, And its principle sounds very unimaginable, oh, in your words, it’s subverting the three views, isn’t it?”

Hua Manlou said in astonishment: "You..."

"So you see, the two of us have been together for so long, it's like when I wanted to take someone to intercept Tumot, you realized it before I said it, and I understand your behavior style It's so thorough, and I'm not stupid, how could I believe that you summoned a meteor?" Zhao Ren squinted at Hua Manlou, and said contemptuously: "Besides, isn't it just a meteor falling from the sky, so what if you really know it? I'm not sure, but you, hum, you don't have the heart, I said."

Although he didn't speak too clearly, Hua Manlou still understood what Zhao Ren meant by "heart spirit", so the look on his face became even weirder.And what...

He felt that Zhao Ren couldn't be treated as a child from now on—even though he was still a brat, he might be able to see the essence of certain things better than many people, at least he could fully understand that Hua Manlou was an unwell man. Your own salted fish...

"So I won't say anything else, you know. But..." Zhao Ren pouted towards the city: "Is it time to do something now?"

Hua Manlou was taken aback for a moment, and then immediately shouted: "Come here! Let the reconnaissance company get ready... No, send three reconnaissance balloons out, and use the fastest speed to find out the situation at the Tatar camp!"

"Yes!"

"All Xishanwei gather, get ready to go!"

"Yes!"

Regardless of whether the Tatar side was really smashed to pieces by the meteorite, compared to our own side, it is estimated that there is no brat on the opposite side who shamelessly attributes the meteorite falling from the sky to the skill of the general, so even if it is smashed crookedly, Things won't be too good over there.

Therefore, if you don't take advantage of this time to make things worse, can you still be a qualified general?

591. That's all, that's all

Judging from the report from Kinov's team, Tumed is really miserable.

A large camp of more than [-] cavalrymen occupies an area that is not too small - just counting ten people as one yurt, no matter what you do, you need more than [-] camps, plus horses and cattle and sheep to carry, this count... count... ...For the sake of calculation, the old man's mathematics level is not up to the calculation of the area, anyway...

Quite a large area.

The place where the meteorite fell was almost in the middle of the Tumot Camp, and it is said that a large pit with a diameter of more than [-] feet and a depth of four to five feet was smashed out——Hua Manlou couldn't calculate this. How much equivalent the thing can have, but the shock wave generated by the meteorite is not small.

The evidence is that the Tumed camp was in a mess, cattle, sheep, and war horses used as food and grass ran around, and the yurts with a radius of more than one mile around the crater were washed upside down. As for the casualties...

The airships in the sky can’t be seen very clearly, but I don’t think there will be too many of them. After all, what most people bear is not the explosion but the shock wave. It was two hours before the meteorite fell to the ground, but the camp was still in chaos: some cried and wiped their tears, some kowtowed to the big pit and begged for forgiveness from the Changshengtian, some were at a loss and thought they were Dreaming, there are some unlucky ones lying on the ground, visually estimated that they were trampled eight times after being hit by running animals...

Again, in the age of ignorance, people only have fear of unknown ways of thinking.

This means that the generals and chief officers who were supposed to come out to maintain order—of course, Tumet’s expression may be tribal leaders or elders—did not play their due role, because...

Tumed's camping style has always been the plum blossom formation, so the tent of his general, Korchi Khan, is in the center of the camp.And the good news is that after setting up the camp, a meeting of senior generals will naturally be held. These senior generals include not only Korchi himself, but also several of his sons, some tribal leaders, and the envoys of King Yiduan.

So when a meteorite hits the big tent at a speed estimated to be tens of Mach, what are the chances of this group of people surviving?

Take a look, there are still some diggers in the middle of the crater, but theoretically speaking, even after the meteorite hits the ground, it may not be possible to keep many fragments, let alone the people with flesh and blood nearby?

That's right, this meteorite happened to be hit by flowers all over the building, and it happened to hit the center of Tumed's camp, and even more coincidentally, it killed Tumed almost at once. All the generals, including Korchi Khan.So these people can be described as...

Born aggrieved, died absurdly?

Especially Korchi Khan, his lines are not as many as those of one of his envoys, even worse than Tutuo Buhua back then...

By the way, regarding this matter, when the news reached Oala a few months later, Erstum and his master were both rejoicing and afraid—look at the three nomadic countries surrounding Dazhao. After the two countries provoked Huamanlou, the king died not long after. One was killed by his son, and the other was even more outrageously smashed by a meteorite. Can you not be afraid of this?

On the other hand, Wala, fortunately, was only beaten by Huamanlou in a one-sided group fight, and then they shook hands and made peace early, otherwise...

It's a big deal!

Besides, Erstum originally complained a lot about the group fight at the beginning—he actually took a few lead bullets, and these gadgets almost killed him.Although the projectile was dug out later, after the wound healed, the wound was either extremely itchy, or it was terribly sad every time it was cloudy and rainy. After the bones were gone, he didn't even dare to slander.

To be honest, I don't blame him for being cowardly, it's just because he's too evil, he cherishes his life, and his master also cherishes his life, for fear that Huamanlou would throw such a blow at Wang Zhang after seeing them displeased that day...

As for this matter, Huamanlou really has nothing to say, even though his father and his daughter-in-law looked at him with complicated eyes that contained horror, inconceivable, and half-belief after knowing what had happened, each of them hesitated to speak. , I don’t know what to say.

"Whether you believe it or not, I didn't do it anyway!" Hua Manlou turned his head and explained, and then yelled at his soldiers below the city with awe, admiration and fanaticism: "Let's go!" !"

After learning about the situation of Tumote's troops, Hua Manlou naturally wanted to beat the dogs in the water, and in order to complete the battle, he only left 5000 people to defend the city, and brought out the rest.

……

"My lord!"

The ashen-faced Commander of the Xining Guard hurried into King Yiduan's tent, and hurriedly said: "My lord, my subordinates have asked me clearly, it is... God's punishment! Huo Er Chi Khan is dead!"

It wasn't until Huamanlou dispatched troops that Yiduan Wang's camp, five miles away from Tumote's camp, found out what was going on at Korchi Khan's side. Commander Xiningwei himself was terrified, but he still kept thinking as calmly as possible. It is necessary to stabilize Tumed's situation, but who will listen to him talking nonsense at this time?

And at this time, the spies he sent finally found out that the reinforcements from Lanzhou Prefecture had arrived a few days ago, and the leader of the troops was Hua Manlou.

In desperation, the commander of Xiningwei had no choice but to return and inform King Yiduan of all these things.

The candles in the tent flickered on and off, as if the mood of King Yiduan was so obscure at the moment.

After hearing the report from the Commander of Xining Guard, King Yiduan did not make a sound for a long time, but the former felt more and more pressure after waiting for a while, so he couldn't help asking softly: "Wang... lord? Next..."

"This king hates variables," King Yiduan said calmly, as if he hadn't heard the words of the commander of Xiningwei: "But since the big event, there have been variables everywhere."

The Commander of Xining Guard opened his mouth, not knowing what to say, but after a long while, he heard Yiduan's kingly voice: "That's right, since Huamanlou first appeared in my sight, things have gone wrong. My king recently I've always wondered, how on earth did he do it?"

Commander Xining Wei looked at King Yiduan who seemed to have lost weight recently, and didn't know what to say, but said: "My lord, we...we haven't lost yet..."

King Yiduan laughed absent-mindedly, as if he hadn't heard Commander Wei's words: "Guess, what is Hua Manlou doing now? Guess again, what's going on with Yao Zijie in the capital?"

"This……"

"He has traveled thousands of miles to get here, the capital..." King Yiduan laughed even more freely: "It must have been settled by him long ago? Forget it, nothing, it's because he didn't settle the matter for the capital, and This king has nothing to do with it, since this king has not captured the abandoned Lanzhou Mansion from beginning to end, even if the capital is still dragging, so what?"

(I'm back! Update! To be honest, Chinese New Year is more tiring than going to work!)

592. Boil a Pot of Tea...

King Yiduan suddenly realized.

Facts have proved that all his plans have undergone irreversible changes in the face of Huamanlou—in Wang Yiduan's own words, they are called variables, and the variables made him have to try to try his luck first. He had to leave Lanzhou Mansion, and then he had to start the rebellion in advance without accumulating enough strength at all, so the failure was a matter of course.

although……

No one expected that King Yiduan would be defeated in this way - the night before the attack, the friendly army was beaten to pieces by a meteorite, and it is estimated that when the historian writes about this matter, he will not be able to bear it. After a while of ridicule, maybe he will say that he rebelled against his ancestors and colluded with the Tartars, so he was punished by heaven or something, and then he was ridiculed by posterity for thousands of 800 years...

In the final analysis, King Yiduan knew very well that since he stopped lurking and chose to take the initiative to attack, everything was a big gamble, and every big gamble has a low probability of success—the lottery ticket created by Huamanlou is an example Yes, the only difference is that in this gamble, King Yiduan is betting on everything he owns, not ten coppers or two coins.

In terms of the results, he almost succeeded in the assassination in the capital, but with his return to Lanzhou and his final escape, the probability of success has decreased a little bit. King Yiduan had finally played his last card, and he was powerless to recover.

"My lord... my lord?" Commander Xining Wei didn't speak for a long time, as if he was in a trance, King Yiduan tremblingly interrupted his contemplation: "Then...then next..."

King Yiduan came back to his senses, looked blankly at the commander of Xiningwei, and smiled miserably: "Next? If you lose, you have to admit it, and if you are beaten, you have to stand at attention, right?"

"Be... beaten?" Commander Xining Wei repeated a meaningless word blankly, then said with a look of shock: "My lord, we...we still have a chance, we haven't lost yet!"

"Yes, there is still the power to fight for the last time, that's right." King Yiduan suddenly smiled, and his smile was very happy: "After setting off from Xiningwei, and arriving at Lanzhou Prefecture, except for a tentative attack, there is only one attack. When I quelled the turmoil in Wangfuwei, I saw blood on the knife, and then I was chased and beaten by others..."

The Commander of Xining Guard's face was extremely ugly when he heard this: "But..."

"Even so, Xiningwei still has the strength to fight... What do you want to say?" King Yiduan smiled and said with a seemingly crazy smile: "But so what? According to the current situation, apart from relying on blood and courage Fighting with Huamanlou's people, what else can you do?"

Speaking of this, King Yiduan suddenly roared: "What this king wants is the throne, not fighting! This king has already lost completely, and there is absolutely no possibility of making a comeback in this life! If this is the case, why let you wait to fight?"

The commander of the Xining Guard was stunned for a while, then said timidly: "My lord, we... we can take a few people to escape...to..."

"Where did you escape to?" King Yiduan laughed wildly again: "Tumed's territory? Or escape to the deep mountains and old forests, and live incognito for the rest of your life?"

"This..." Commander Xining Wei was speechless for a moment.

"This king said, you have to admit if you lose." King Yiduan glanced at Commander Xiningwei, and suddenly smiled again: "Go, take everyone with you, and take advantage of Tumot's recovery before he recovers. Take as many heads as possible, that's what you should do."

Commander Xining Wei suddenly raised his head and looked at King Yiduan in horror.

As a matter of fact, he was completely hopeless before he got the money - not only because the allied forces were wiped out by an inexplicable meteorite technique, which made the war a complete joke, but also because after the joke, These people will be liquidated - even if he has never come into contact with "Great Zhao Law", he also knows that the rebellion will be beheaded.

Therefore, the purpose of the commander of the Xining Guard to report was not to hope that King Yiduan could solve the problem, but to escape.

Ordinary soldiers may escape punishment and avoid liquidation. After all, they obey the orders of the superiors, but he has no chance of being spared, so his idea is to lead people to fight Xishanwei first, and then take advantage of the chaos The king fled, and after the fighting stopped, it is estimated that no one will be able to find them-in fact, this is also the only way for all rebels...or overthrown monarchs, the difference is that some people Hanging on the old crooked neck tree, some people were pulled out from the hole and hanged, and some people were suspected of suffering some kind of inhuman abuse before being shot...

However, King Yiduan gave Commander Xining Wei another way of thinking—to take the crime and make meritorious deeds, leaving Tumed completely outside the Lanzhou mansion, and fighting for everyone's right to live, rather than a meaningless fight.

And even if King Yiduan didn't say it, the commander of Xining Guard also knew what to do next: after surrendering to Xishan Guard, he led troops to recover Xining Guard under the supervision of Xi Shan Guard, and even recovered the whole territory of Qinghai. Most people in Wei were whitewashed.Even though the imperial court might not retain the establishment of Xiningwei after the war, in the name of Emperor Guangxing's benevolence, there is a high probability that they will let them go, and even let them build a city on the spot and guard the border of Dazhao.

Of course, several conditions are required for this to happen.

Firstly, Xiningwei had to take advantage of Xishanwei before he started attacking Tumote and copied his back road, and achieved certain results in order to show his sincerity; Three...

King Yiduan must sit here firmly, waiting for Huamanlou to sign for the delivery.

In other words, in order to allow more people to survive, King Yiduan had to be sacrificed.

In fact, after the commander of the Xining Guard realized that the general situation was over, he even conceived in his mind to unite a thousand households to capture King Yiduan and offer it to the court to save his life, and he could see that the few thousand households who followed him seemed not difficult Persuasion—it has nothing to do with loyalty, because life is the highest law rooted in the DNA of all living things.

And from another point of view, the soldiers of Xining Guard are more than ten thousand brothers, while the prince... has only one.

However, he did not do so, but King Yiduan himself said it out.

"This king lost, so I am willing to bet and admit defeat." In a moment of oppressive silence, King Yiduan said: "Take someone there, and send someone to tell Hua Manlou that this king is waiting for him here."

For a moment, the commander of Xiningwei just wanted to recruit people in, and ran away with King Yiduan, no matter where he went, he had to survive.

But after he struggled for a while, he suddenly bowed deeply to King Yiduan, and said in a deep voice, "The last general... has orders!"

The commander of the Xining Guard left without looking back. King Yiduan squinted at the door curtain he had opened when he left, sighed silently, and calmly ordered: "Come on."

The palace attendant who had been following King Yiduan walked into the tent, and said cautiously: "My lord."

King Yiduan looked at him and murmured: "Order, if anyone from Xishanwei comes, they will all surrender."

"……Yes."

"Also, let's boil a pot of tea..." After a pause, King Yiduan continued, "Well, let's get some history books by the way."

"Yes."

593. Walking in the mouth
