Daming: I, the emperor who trains the carpenter

"My Mu family has been loyal and good for generations, how can I allow villains to slander me!"

Old Mrs. Song speaks righteously and looks like a decent person.

When the common people saw it, they trusted the Mu family a little more.

Tian Ergeng sneered and said, "Is it true that the commander has no evidence?"

"This command already has the evidence that your Mu family colluded with Annan!"

Hearing this, Mrs. Song's pupils shrank suddenly, and Chen's on the side immediately shouted: "There are traitors in the court colluding with Annan and slandering my Mu family. These Jinyiwei are here to kill people and silence them. Stop them!"

The common people were completely stunned, and they didn't know who to trust, but Tian Ergeng led Jin Yiwei and Mu's family to a stalemate like this, and it was about to start a fight, and a rider of Jin Yiwei rushed over: "My lord, Yuanfu has an order. "

After Tian Ergeng took out the secret letter to read, he glanced at Mrs. Song and Mrs. Chen, and said casually, "Withdraw."

Jin Yiwei turned around and retreated, leaving without delay.

After Jin Yiwei left, Mrs. Song and Mrs. Chen breathed a sigh of relief.

Returning to Duke Qian's mansion, Mrs. Song said, "The situation is not good. The court may have discovered something, otherwise Jin Yiwei would not have come."

Mu Jianbo asked in confusion: "Then why did Jin Yiwei leave again?"

The old lady Song analyzed: "The imperial court should have some evidence, but they can't confirm the authenticity. They want Jin Yiwei to come to my Qian State government to search. Now, seeing that my Mu family has a tough attitude, they retreated."

Chen went on to say: "But we have to make plans early. Now the imperial court must no longer trust us. If it is not possible, we are afraid that we will really plan for the worst."

Hearing this, the members of the Mu family were shocked. Could it be that they really wanted to betray the court?

Mrs. Chen said: "In this situation, do we have any other solutions? At worst, we take Kunming to seek refuge with Annan. Can King Annan give me a prince in the Mu family?"

"There are many mountains in the southwest, how long will it take for the imperial army to reach Yunnan?"

"When the imperial army arrives, the whole of Yunnan will be ours. At that time, we will guard the pass, what can the imperial court do to us?"

Mrs. Song nodded: "Now that things have come to an end, I can only make such a plan."

"Tell the chieftains, gather troops and horses."

"The soldiers and horses of our Mu family must also be ready, maybe we will have to fight against the imperial army for a while."

"Quickly gather our soldiers and horses and block the gate of Kunming!"

The members of the Mu family immediately took action when they heard this. Immediately, the hidden Mu family soldiers and horses from all over the country quickly assembled and stationed in Kunming to guard. The respective chieftains, prefectures and counties then summoned soldiers and horses to guard the city, preparing to wait for the arrival of the barbarians from the southwest and prepare to surrender.

At the same time, the Mu family and the chieftains also sent a secret letter to Annan, expressing their willingness to discuss surrender.

Seeing that the Mu family and the chieftains had to take refuge in him, Annan Wang Li Weiqi couldn't help but be ecstatic. The development of the situation really fit his expectations.

Is it possible that I am really the son of destiny, who can lead the country of Dayue to glory? !
Thinking of this, Li Weiqi couldn't help but burst out laughing: "The Mu family and the chieftain in Yunnan are willing to submit to my Da Yue Kingdom, and my Da Yue Kingdom is indeed destined!"

Annan's ministers also bowed down one after another: "Your Majesty's destiny is the bell."

In Thang Long City, following the gradual victory of Annan's army, the entire Thang Long City was full of joy and laughter. Everyone felt that it was about to succeed, and the future of Day Viet Kingdom could be expected.

Under such circumstances, Li Weiqi ordered another 15 troops to be transferred into Yunnan, and he would use [-] troops to completely incorporate Yunnan into the territory of Day Viet!
The situation in Yunnan is getting more and more chaotic.

The chieftains of the Mu family and Yunnan didn't pay any attention to the burning, killing and looting of Annan's bandit soldiers, they only cared about defending the city, and didn't know whether to guard against the bandit soldiers or the imperial court.

Right now, the entire territory of Yunnan is really resisting the Annan bandits for the comfort of the people, and only Kunming commander Lang Pingning's army is left.

And the people in Yunnan just watched the Mu family do nothing, and watched the chieftains from all over the country just like the Mu family just amassing money, raising food prices, forcing the people to spend more money to buy food, and even bribing the chieftains and the Mu family. The soldiers will not die, and the people of all ethnic groups in Yunnan are angry.

In addition, it is rumored that the Mu family and the chieftain are just to resist the imperial court's policy of reforming the land and sharing the land evenly, which attracted Annan bandits to burn, kill and loot. Be their slaves!
How long did the people live a stable life after the land was divided?

The Mu family and the chieftains colluded with the Annan bandits, and how many people in Yunnan were ruined and their wives were separated?

How did those Annan thieves harm the good families in Yunnan, and how did they burn, kill and loot?
The city is full of bones, burned to the ground, no rooster crows for thousands of miles, and the bones are exposed in the wild. This is not a simple empty talk. It is not a simple number that tens of thousands of people in the city were slaughtered.

When you go to the city that is full of blood and has become dead, and look at the ruins and corpses everywhere, when you see the children die beside their parents, and when you see good families being abused and killed, you can fully understand. , What do these few words on these simple memorials mean?

"Beast! What a beast!"

Qin Liangyu, who was over 56 years old, looked at the corpses all over the city, and her hand holding the whip was trembling. Behind her, her son Ma Xianglin, nephews Qin Yiming and Qin Gongming also flushed with anger. Bullying!

"Where are the soldiers and horses of Duke Qian's Mansion? Why don't they protect the people?" Qin Liangyu couldn't help asking.

Qin Yiming's face was dark: "The Duke of Guizhou summoned the old troops to defend Kunming, and did not send a single soldier. Right now, only the troops of General Lang Pingning, the commandant of Kunming, are resisting the bandits in the whole of Yunnan. There are even more rumors."

Qin Liangyu asked, "What are the rumors?"

Qin Yiming said: "There are even more rumors that the invasion of Annan bandits was brought in by the Mu family and chieftains."

"Humph!"

Qin Liangyu snorted coldly: "Leave some sons to bury the corpses of the people, and the rest follow me."

Qin Liangyu's white soldiers have arrived in Yunnan!

When Qin Liangyu's banner appeared on the border of Yunnan, many people in Yunnan breathed a sigh of relief. The imperial army finally arrived, and Lang Pingning quickly sent someone to contact Qin Liangyu to join him.

After discussion, the two sides did not join forces, but the two armies fought against each other. This is also a helpless place, because there are too many barbarians in Yunnan. They occupy half of Yunnan now, and they have to use troops everywhere. Qin Liangyu It is also difficult to cooperate with Lang Pingning, who learned the tactics of the new army, and the two sides had to fight separately.

At this time, the Annan barbarians had been raging in Yunnan for more than a month, and most of the territory of Yunnan was swallowed up by Annan. Not to mention the shock in the southwest, even the western vassal states were also very surprised. How can Annan's soldiers and horses fight?
Seeing that Annan opened his mouth and swallowed half of Daming's Yunnan, King Thalong of Toungoo, King Ayutthaya of Siam, and King Nanzhang of Laos couldn't help being moved.

For a while, they couldn't help but want to move around, planning to take the opportunity to make a profit. After all, the Yunnan chieftain hasn't responded so far, so they are obviously letting them do what they want.

Such good opportunities are rare.

However, it was at this time that Zhang Haogu's big banner went down the Jinsha River and arrived in Yunnan!
After one and a half months, the imperial army finally arrived in Yunnan. The so-called high mountains and rough roads did not matter to the army. They walked the Yangtze River waters in the early stage, and then went down the Jinsha River when they arrived in Sichuan. The army arrived in Yunnan smoothly.

With the banners of Zhang Haogu, Huang Degong, Han Yaowei, Zhao Yuqi and others appearing in Yunnan, the army set up camp, and the people of Yunnan came one after another, sending their own few grains, picking wild fruits, and game to comfort the army.

The royal master of the imperial court has arrived!
Yunnan is saved!
After setting up camp, Tian Ergeng, the commander of Jinyiwei, also came: "Yuanfu, you are humble."

Zhang Haogu helped Tian Ergeng up with a smile: "It was the pavilion who asked Commander Tian to withdraw, so I don't blame you."

"At the moment, the Mu family simply thinks that Annan is so powerful that the imperial court can't do it. If he wants to crack the earth and seal the king, it depends on whether the imperial court agrees."

"Decree that after a day's rest in Wuding, the army marched into Chuxiong, and ordered Hussar General Qin Liangyu and Kunming Commander Lang Pingning to come to the camp to report on their duties."

The next day, the army marched from Wuding Mansion, entered Chuxiong, and then set up a camp. This time it was not an ordinary temporary camp, but a wartime camp prepared for a long-term war. The camp was built to accommodate 5 people .

The mountains, rivers, sun and moon flags of Ming Dynasty fluttered in the camp.

When Qin Liangyu and Lang Pingning arrived at the camp, what they saw was the scene of soldiers training in the camp and the neighing of war horses. The cold light was sharp and the soldiers were brave.

"It's no wonder that he is the king's teacher of the imperial court's new army, which is extraordinary."

Qin Liangyu was moved, and brought his nephew to the big tent of the Chinese army. After the report was entered, the first thing he saw was a young man, not yet 30 years old, without a bright iron helmet, and a jade hairpin stuck in a bun on his head. , wearing a big red python robe, was looking at a huge sand table with several generals.

This is the current chief assistant of Ming Dynasty?

As a person who has only heard Zhang Haogu's name but never met Zhang Haogu, Qin Liangyu confirmed Zhang Haogu's identity just by looking at the python robe.

This is a dragon robe with two horns on the head, not just a flying fish or a bullfighting suit, except for the current emperor and the chief minister of the cabinet, who else has the honor to wear this four-claw python dragon robe?

"The last general, Qin Liangyu, pays homage to Yuanfu."

Hearing the energetic voice, Zhang Haogu raised his head and looked at the female general in front of him. Although he was 56 years old, Qin Liangyu was still full of energy and vigorous in action. Armor, looks like a majestic general.

Zhang Haogu said with a smile: "General Qin is here, come quickly."

Qin Liangyu stepped forward to look at this sand table. Looking carefully, the mountains and rivers of the entire Yunnan, the direction of the rivers, and the passes and cities are all in it. It is extraordinary at first glance!
As a general, Qin Liangyu naturally knew how rare such a sand table is, which is much more detailed than a map.

At this time, Lang Pingning was on the other side, holding a baton and saying: "Right now, the Annan bandits have occupied Lin'an, Guangnan, Guangxi, Yuanjiang, Xinhua, Chengjiang, Niuwu, Cheli, Menglian, Menggen, Menggeng, etc. The twelve prefectures of Ding and Weiyuan sent troops to the four prefectures of Jingdong, Chuxiong, Yunnan, and Qujing."

"Now the troops of the last general are from Yunnan and along the line of Qujing, and the troops of General Qin are on the line of Jingdong and Zhenyuan."

Zhang Haogu was thoughtful: "This half of Yunnan is in danger."

Huang Degong said: "Yuanfu, the last general thinks that the current battle situation can still be controlled, and the more than [-] barbarians in Yunnan are nothing to worry about. If our army can ignore them, encircle them from both sides, and recapture the pass, we can take it back. They are locked in Yunnan, supplemented by Yunnan soldiers, and gradually erode."

Zhang Haogu looked at Qin Liangyu again: "General Qin is a battle-hardened general, and now he has also experienced the war in Yunnan. Tell me what you think."

Qin Liangyu said without hesitation: "The general thinks it's impossible."

"Now our army is short of troops, and encircling the two sides is like going deep alone. It is too dangerous to rely on our army alone."

"And Annan has many elephant soldiers, rattan shields, and ordinary firearms are difficult to stop them. Cannons are the only way to fight. If they are scattered, the battle situation may be corrupted."

Zhang Haogu said with a smile: "So, the new army might not be suitable for the war in Yunnan?"

Qin Liangyu said: "Yunnan has many mountains and few plains, so it is difficult for cavalry to maneuver, and there are many jungles, so it is difficult to use firearms."

Zhang Haogu nodded: "What General Qin said is exactly the point."

"Look, everyone, this Yunnan plain is mostly near Kunming, surrounded by mountains, complex terrain, rugged roads, and inconvenient for the army to move. Now Annan occupies half of the province of Yunnan. They are familiar with the mountains and forests, and they can walk in the mountains. The army has a lot of baggage. , Difficulty moving forward."

"According to common sense, firearms are inconvenient, and swords are needed."

Qin Liangyu said: "The last general went to Yunnan to fight during this period, and the situation is exactly like this. Swords, bows and arrows are far more useful than firearms."

"Now the last general has [-] soldiers from his hometown under his command. They are good at wielding white spears and marching in formation without fear of bandits. Even if there are tens of thousands of thieves, the last general is also not afraid."

"If Yuanfu trusts him, the final general is willing to return to his hometown and recruit another [-] soldiers to serve the court."

Zhang Haogu looked at Qin Liangyu with emotion, what is a good general, look at Qin Liangyu, and then look at the situation of the chieftain of Yunnan and the Mu family.

"General Qin is loyal to the country and will not lose the good jade of the country."

"Of course, the focus of this battle is not in Yunnan, but in Annan."

Hearing Zhang Haogu's words, Qin Liangyu was puzzled. The enemy in Yunnan hadn't been resolved yet, so how should Annan solve it?

For a while, Qin Liangyu wondered whether Zhang Haogu knew about soldiers, and he would not talk about soldiers on paper, saying that capturing the thief first captured the king, encircling Wei and saving Zhao, right?
Not to mention the current situation, it depends on the terrain of Yunnan and Annan. If you want to encircle Wei and save Zhao, you don't have this chance.

After thinking for three, Qin Liangyu still said: "Yuanfu, when fighting on the battlefield, you need to consider the favorable location and weather. It is the rainy season, and the gunpowder is often agglomerated due to the heat and humidity. The roads are difficult, the water is fast, the mountains are poisonous, and the army It will take more than a month to wipe out the enemy in Yunnan, so how can we talk about solving the enemy in Annan."

"The last general thought that it would be better for the whole army to abandon their muskets and form a formation with swords and shields to meet the enemy, advance slowly, and gradually regain the lost ground. After the enemy in Yunnan is cleared, we can talk about Annan."

Zhang Haogu said with a smile: "What General Qin said is the safest way, but this pavilion doesn't have that much time."

"Three months, within three months, this cabinet will resolve the issue of the Southwest War."

Three months!
Upon hearing the time limit, Qin Liangyu was in trouble.

There are 10,000+ barbarians in Yunnan, all over the mountains and plains, how to solve it in three months?

Although her white-armed soldiers are strong, there is no way to fight against ten with one. There are casualties in war, and soldiers will die from exhaustion. Even with the reinforcements from the court, it will not take ten days to advance step by step to solve the enemy in Yunnan. Things that can be solved in a month, at least half a year or even a year old.

Now there are only three months, how can it be feasible?
Qin Liangyu began to suspect that Zhang Haogu really didn't know how to fight, so he set a three-month deadline, so what if he couldn't do it?
Do you want the soldiers to risk their lives to pile them up?
At this time, a military report arrived, and Zhang Haogu opened it and said, "All generals, go down and rest first, General Huang will stay here."

"Here."

All the generals dispersed, Qin Liangyu returned to his tent with an ugly expression on his face, and his nephews surrounded him: "But what happened?"

"Did the imperial court ask us to increase our troops, or what?"

Qin Liangyu sighed: "Yuan Fu said that the war in the Southwest should be resolved within three months."

"Three months?!" Qin Yiming's eyes widened when he heard that. During this period of time, he led the army to fight against Annan's barbarians. How could he not know how difficult these barbarians are? How could it be possible in three months?

Son Ma Xianglin also said: "Three months is not enough!"

"The enemy in Yunnan has tens of thousands of people, and the court only has a few soldiers. How can it be possible to end the war within three months? This is impossible!"

"Unless the imperial court has an army of 20, how can it be possible to end the southwest war within three months?"

"Does Yuanfu know about soldiers?"

Qin Liangyu glared at Ma Xianglin: "Speak carefully! Can you say that?"

Although he admonished his son, Qin Liangyu was also worried. This Yunnan war was not suitable for using firearms. These firearms were prone to misfiring in rainy days and humid environments. Right now, they had to rely on spears and swords.

But Zhang Haogu didn't listen to her at all, which made Qin Liangyu feel that the situation was dangerous, and the general's insistence on going his own way would probably kill the entire army.

But who made Zhang Haogu the chief assistant and the governor of the four provinces?

As the chief assistant of the Ming Dynasty, leading the prince and grand teacher, the governor of the four provinces, and the title of minister of the military department, who can compete with him?

"Well, right now, I can only hope that Yuanfu won't be too impulsive." Qin Liangyu couldn't help but sigh.

Zhang Haogu didn't care about Qin Liangyu's worries, he was the chief general, and when the military orders were issued, Qin Liangyu and the others only had to execute them.

Inside the big tent, Zhang Haogu looked at the hanging map and asked: "General Huang, I heard from this pavilion that you have specially trained a strange soldier in your Shenji Battalion?"

Huang Degong said: "Back to Yuanfu, in the Shenji Battalion of the last general, a battalion of 3000 people was specially selected to train surprise attacks. The whole battalion is equipped with continuous crossbows and elite firearms, and is good at attacking cities and pulling out strongholds."

Zhang Haogu nodded, Huang Degong saw this and asked, "May I ask where Yuanfu sent this battalion?"

Zhang Haogu slid his finger on the map to Annan and Shenglong: "Here."

"This pavilion wants you to perform a magic soldier descending from heaven in Shenglong!"
