Daming: I, the emperor who trains the carpenter

Chapter 874 Trembling!the Kongs!Your farmer grandpa is back!

Xiaoqi Battalion,
This is the cavalry team specially built by Yuan Chonghuan when he was appointed governor of southern Liaoning in the Tianqi Dynasty.

Most of them are the low-level Jurchen who could not survive under the oppression of Manchu Emperor Taiji and the nobles of the Eight Banners, and those wild Jurchen who did not belong to the Manchu Eight Banners and lived in deep mountains and old forests. Later, these people were used as coaches to train Han cavalry, This is the Xiaoqi Battalion belonging to Daming.

The Xiaoqi Battalion, both men and horses, were all dressed in cotton armor, and they carried a heavy cavalry that was good at assault.

After all, Manchu vests were not as good at hunting as Mongolian cavalry, but short-distance raids and medium-to-short-range strong bows and heavy arrows. In order to deal with Manchu vests, it is natural to create a cavalry similar to Manchu vests. .

Later, when the Datong Party arrived in Liaodong, in addition to reorganizing and reorganizing the soldiers and horses of the towns according to the 12-year system of Tianqi, they also built several artillery and horse teams as reinforcements to support the towns.

Zhou Yuji came to Shandong to bring such a team of cavalry. Don't look at it as a battalion, but it is actually 2000 horses. Putting these [-] horses on the ground in Shandong is an incomprehensible existence, not to mention There are more than [-] Qingqi in the two towns led by Zhou Yuji.

The total of more than [-] cavalry cannot be said to break the [-] army, but in today's battlefield of [-] against [-], it is a force that can make the final decision.

The power of cavalry, until 200 years later, is still the main factor that determines the outcome of the battlefield.

Under the roar of the cannon, the signal was lifted into the air, and the captain of the Xiaoqi Battalion suddenly drew out his saber: "Brothers, the general's signal has arrived, kill!"

"kill!"

Amidst the deafening shouts of killing, the ground began to tremble. Thousands of five hundred cavalry with horses and cotton armor rushed out from the side and rear, directly confusing Xue Lian's army formation. It seemed that Xue Lian was really beaten by Zhou Yuji. Ji hit the chin with a fierce left jab, and was caught off guard by the sudden cavalry.

"Didn't you say that the Datong thieves have more than 2000 rangers in the four cavalry battalions?! Where did the 1000 armors come from?!"

Xue Lian's roars and questions are destined to be unanswered, and the war has already been declared victorious from the moment when the Xiaoqi battalion rushed into Xue Lian's army as if they had entered an uninhabited territory.

The thousands of households in the guard who followed Zhou Yuji saw that they had won the frontal battle, so they drew their knives directly: "Brothers, fame and fortune are at this moment, kill!"

If the eighth uncle Qiu in the guard said that he would die in the battlefield, he would definitely think highly of them, but they have never lost in a downwind battle and bullying others.

Seeing that the Datong Party had already decided the outcome, the Eight Masters of Qiu couldn't help but move, one by one holding swords, shields and long guns, they rushed up desperately, and the charging speed even caught up with the cavalry at one point up.

And Xue Lian looked at the battlefield where the general situation is now gone, and his whole heart was disheartened. He wanted to draw his sword to kill himself, but the sword was quickly snatched away by the soldiers beside him: "Marshal, what is your intention!"

Xue Lian let out a long sigh, ignoring the defeated soldiers fleeing in chaos: "Your Majesty entrusted me with the war in Shandong, and now I am defeated like a mountain, and the situation on the whole front has collapsed. How can I go back?"

"The defeat in the war is not due to the commander in chief, it is because those people in the rear forcibly urged them to ignore the situation on the front line, and most of the ordnance is old and damaged, that's why we lost the battle." The soldiers comforted Xue Lian.

And Xue Lian sighed again, how could he not know this?
But who told him to be the governor of the Shandong war? Now the situation in Shandong is completely rotten. Originally, there were three prefectures and half of Shandong. Now that this battle is over, the whole Shandong will fall into the hands of Datong thieves. Maybe not responsible?
"If the old general doesn't know where to go, why not come and sit in our army?"

Xue Lian turned his head to look, but saw that Zhou Yuji had already rode his horse in front of him.

When the battle at Qingshiguan was extremely fierce, in Jinan City, Shandong Governor Wang Shunyi was drinking tea with a group of high-ranking officials in Shandong.

The governor of Shandong said without thinking: "In this battle, the court should have lost, right?"

"Isn't it good to lose? Everything is clean after losing." Shandong Inspectorate said with a smile.

Wang Shunyi nodded: "Yes, it's good to lose. If you lose everything, you can start all over again. It's a pity for those [-] soldiers. The situation in Shandong is completely corrupted now."

The procurator said with a smile: "The situation in Shandong is corrupt. What does it have to do with the governor and me? It's not that Xue Lian thinks highly of himself, ignores the truth, and forcibly uses the power of the governor to lead an army to a decisive battle with the Datong thieves. Why is the situation in Shandong corrupt?"

The chief envoy said again: "Speaking of which, roughly how much is Shandong's deficit these years?"

Wang Shunyi said: "It turned out that there was 8 to [-] taels, but didn't they make up for it later?"

The chief envoy smiled and said, "That's right, I made a mistake in my memory, and the 8 to [-] taels were made up long ago."

The procurator laughed again and said, "Speaking of which, it's time for us to jointly write a booklet for His Majesty, and refer to Xue Lian for a copy."

The three looked at each other, then laughed.

Let's fight, let's fight, the more intense the fight, the better, and the blood will flow like a river.

Otherwise, how to make up for the huge shortfall of Shandong's seventy-eight million taels of silver.

Otherwise, how will the whereabouts of the hundreds of general cannons in Shandong be resolved.

Otherwise, how can the dirty things in Shandong these years be erased?

The left and right are just sacrificing one Xue Lian, sacrificing more than ten thousand Qiuba, it's worth it, it's worth it!

Suddenly, the chief envoy sighed: "I just pity Yan Shenggong's family, and they will become captives of Datong thieves again."

The inspector said helplessly: "Although the experience of Yan Shenggong's family is indeed worthy of sympathy, under such a catastrophe, we can't care about Yan Shenggong's family anymore."

Wang Shunyi stroked his mustache and didn't speak. He was thinking about how to write notes for his immediate superior.

Soon, a servant rushed in anxiously: "My lord, Marquis Yangwu has been defeated, the [-] army has been completely defeated, and the bandits from Datong have already marched towards Fucheng!"

Wang Shunyi stood up suddenly: "You two, it's time, we should withdraw."

One day later, the news of Zhou Yuji's defeat of Xue Lian at Qingshiguan spread throughout Shandong, and immediately after that, officials and gentry from all over the place dragged their families and ran away with gold and silver.

Yan Shenggong's family in Qufu also wanted to run away, but they were too familiar with the Datong Party.

From the time when this group was still called Xindang, they had no respect for Yan Shenggong, let alone politeness.

Forcing the Confucian family to divide the land, dismantle the Confucian family, have a public trial, and execute them, no Datong party member would dare to do it!
Back then, because of Qiu Ba, Datong party members dared to bombard the Confucian mansion and demolish the Kong family. Now that the Datong party members have come to Shandong again, how can this make Yan Shenggong's family not panic?
No, when they heard that Zhou Yuji had defeated Xue Lian, the hope of the nobles in Shandong, the Kong family immediately fell into chaos.

Some cried out to the world, some wanted to run away, some tidied up their clothes, and some passed out directly. There was no one in the entire Kong family who was not afraid.

"My God, why did God treat the saint like this, what did our Kong family do wrong?"

"Taizu, open your eyes and take a look, this beautiful land of the Ming Dynasty will be wiped out by those rebellious officials and thieves of the Datong Party!"

"We were finally pardoned and restored to our status. It's only been a few years. Are we going to be driven away like pigs and dogs again? This Shengsheng Gongfu is the home of our ancestors for generations."

"Our ancestors have been here in Qufu for generations. From Han Gaozu to Ming Taizu, whoever disrespected saints in the past dynasties, and now Zhang Haogu, a monster in troubled times, will be destroyed in one day!"

"Run, run, when the Datong bandits arrive, no one will be able to run away!"

At the time when the Confucian family in Qufu was in turmoil, a horse team was also rushing to Qufu.

This cavalry team was sent by Yan Fei.

There were two battalions of cavalry in Mali of the Sanxie soldiers led by Yan Fei. He specially sent one battalion this time to rush to Qufu first and surround the Kong family.

As the horse team was on their way, Captain Ma Zuotian couldn't help but recall what his family had said to Yan Fei: "Ma Zuotian, listen to me, the general has an explanation, don't leave the Kong family alone, not to mention one person, just a dog." , even a fly cannot fly out of Yanshenggong Mansion, do you understand?"

At that time, Ma Zuotian patted his chest and promised: "Don't worry, I don't like the stuff in Yanshenggong's mansion. My old horse has long disliked it. Who is it? The ancestor's kindness can last for more than 1000 years, and the emperor and I don't have this Treatment, those people still act like dogs, let's see how my old horse will deal with them!"

But Yan Fei said: "Your task is to surround the Kong family and prevent anyone from the Kong family from getting away. How to clean up the Kong family is not up to you or me, understand?"

Ma Zuotian chuckled: "Understood, obey the orders and obey the command. I have memorized the 54 regulations of Datong's three laws and eight prohibitions by heart. Don't worry if you are in charge!"

Thinking about what I have explained before, Ma Zuotian then looked at his own cavalry. There are 470 and eight cavalry in the whole battalion. Everyone wears cotton armor, sabers at the waist and hips, and firecrackers on their backs. They belong to the most orthodox cavalry of Datong. Fighting with your body, you can dismount and line up to meet the enemy's dragoons.

"Brothers, Qufu is only less than [-] miles away from us. Hurry up and rush to Qufu in one go, and let those masters of the Kong family know that our Datong party members are back!" Ma Zuotian shouted loudly.

The knights of the cavalry responded cheerfully, and nearly five hundred horsemen galloped towards Qufu. At this time, Qufu was already in chaos.

Everyone in the mess in Yanshenggong’s mansion is planning to escape, but outside Yanshenggong’s mansion, the people who have once again become the tenants and slaves of the Confucian family have reawakened hope: the Datong Party is back, and this time the Confucian family will definitely be driven out again. gone.

The common people don't expect anything else, they just hope that the Datong Party can stay for a while, so that the common people can have a few more days of peace.

Now the masters of the Kong family in Yanshenggong's mansion are too busy to take care of themselves, and the people of Qufu are naturally fluctuating, looking at the situation one by one, and secretly considering whether they should take the initiative to rebel.

Just when the people were struggling, someone suddenly shouted: "Datong is here! Datong is here!"

The common people looked around in surprise, and sure enough, the sound of horseshoes in the distance was like thunder, and it was a horse team under the banner of Datong!
This cavalry team looks dusty, but everyone's eyes seem to be shining, they are powerful characters at first glance, and they are all wearing armor and carrying knives and guns. They are definitely cavalry from the Datong Party.

Because Shandong's guards can't pull out elite players of this quality!
"The soldiers from Datong have arrived, hurry up and enter the city, those members of the Kong family want to run away!"

"Yeah, go into the city and stop the Kong family, don't let them escape!"

The common people finally knew why the Kong family had to run away. It turned out that they knew that the Datong Party was coming.

Now that the soldiers of the Datong Party have arrived, the people have confidence. They have reported the news of the Kong family one by one, and they are a little emotional when they enthusiastically let the horse go to the field. This Shandong is worthy of the old territory of the Datong Party. The people are conscious!
"Don't worry, everyone, the Kong family can't escape alone!"

"Brothers, let's go to the city and block Kong's house!"

Ma Zuotian yelled, and the horse team quickly passed the people and went straight to Yanshenggong's mansion.

The people watched the large team of horses flee away, and after looking at each other for a few moments, they suddenly put down their work and followed the horse team with hoes and plows, and rushed towards the Yanshenggong Mansion. To surround Yanshenggong's mansion, they also want to block those masters of the Kong family who never look at others with their eyes!

"Master, master, something is wrong!"

"Mudlegs are rebelling!"

Hearing the servants' shouts, the masters of the Confucian family couldn't sit still: Let the world go, our Confucian family is the master of Qufu, and it has been the case for more than 1000 years. This Qufu is the Qufu of our Confucian family, not the Qufu of the imperial court, Qufu The people here are all slaves of the Confucian family, not the people of the court.

You house slaves dare to rebel now, are you afraid that you don’t want your son-in-law to devour your master? !
The second master of the Kong family immediately jumped up against the case: "Presumptuous!"

"In Qufu, whoever dares to mess with my Kong family, is living too comfortably first, do you want to court death?!"

Before the words were finished, someone suddenly broke into the mansion: "You are the ones who are looking for death!"

The second master of the Kong family looked around and suddenly showed horror: "Yes, it is a Datong thief, a Datong thief!"

"Thief? The Heavenly Soldiers of Datong have arrived!"

Ma Zuotian sneered, walked up to the second master of the Kong family with a saber at his waist in one hand and a whip in the other: "I didn't expect that, we will meet again."

"You, you, you are." The second master of the Kong family looked at Ma Zoutian, feeling familiar but just couldn't remember who it was.

Ma Zuotian kindly reminded: "The man that your Kong family beat to death was my brother, a comrade-in-arms, and a sibling of my class who lived and died together."

"Later, I took part in raiding your home. I was the one who kidnapped Kong Shangming back then."

"So it's you!" Not to mention the second master of the Kong family, those old men of the Kong family couldn't help but get excited when they watched Ma Zuotian.

Ma Zuotian clasped his fists in the direction of Liaodong: "Meng Yuanfu trusts me, Ma Zuotian has grown from a soldier to a commander, and then to a team leader and a leader. Now I am a captain, leading a battalion of brothers."

"This time, I took the initiative to ask my family to take the initiative to accept this task. I just want to see how you hypocrites who have done a lot of evil and claim to be descendants of saints will come to an end."

"Brothers, if anyone dares to escape after surrounding Yanshenggong's mansion, the Fa will be executed on the spot!"

Kong Yinrong couldn't sit still: "You, whose law do you follow, dare to encircle the Shenggong Mansion?!"

"Your Majesty is very respectful to our Confucius family, you dare to use your sword here, you are risking the disgrace of the world, and you will be stigmatized forever!"

"Who is the one who will leave a bad smell for thousands of years? I will know when the time comes." Ma Zuotian is in a very comfortable mood now, and he is too lazy to argue with Kong Yinrong, an old man.

Soon, the news that the Kong family was surrounded by Datong Heavenly Soldiers spread throughout Qufu. Countless tenants and slaves of the Kong family came to watch this scene. It vividly tells how the high-ranking Confucian mansion was smashed, how the land was distributed to the common people, how the noble and indifferent lords of the Confucian family changed their surnames, and how each one of them did not work hard.

Now this scene will soon be seen again.

Soon, Ma Zuotian walked out of the Confucian Mansion. Looking at the crowds of people gathered in front of the Confucian Mansion, Ma Zuotian shouted loudly: "Fathers and folks, I am the commander of the cavalry battalion of the Eighth Township Youxie under the command of the Datong Party." Wei Ma is going to the field, I am here to search the Kong family according to the military order of the commander of our eighth town."

"Fathers and folks, the Datong Party is back. With the Datong Party here, the Kong family can no longer bully the big guys!"

Hearing Ma Zuotian's words, the people burst into cheers immediately, and many even wept with joy.

How many years has it been?

Finally, the Datong Party is back again. It is still the Datong Party that cares about the life and death of the people. Now the emperor sitting in the Golden Luan Palace can't see the suffering of the people at all, and he doesn't know what kind of life the people are living!
Immediately afterwards, Ma Zuotian organized the people of Qufu to set up a public trial platform on the one hand, and on the other hand to state their grievances and the criminal evidence of the Kong family.

Everyone in the Kong family looked at what happened outside the Kong mansion in horror. This scene is so familiar. Back then, Zhang Haogu tore the Kong family apart in Qufu, so that many noble masters of the Kong family had to change their surnames to become mud legs. .

That scene back then is so similar to this one now, this moment is almost like that moment, as if the events of that year had reappeared again.

The same public trial platform, the same people's grievance meeting, the same denunciation of the Kong family's crimes, this time the Kong family can't move, but none of the lackeys and local ruffians can escape.

With the elite cavalry of the Datong Party as their backer, the people quickly uncovered a group of rogues hiding in the crowd who were doing black work for the Kong family. the countryside.

If the Kong family wants fields, they will threaten the people. If the people don’t obey, they will break in at night and beat people, smash the doors, and even plunder directly, forcing the people to sell the fields. Burned the house at night, covered him with sacks and beat him to death.
Not to mention forcing people to pay taxes, forcing people to sell their daughters, opening casinos and controlling brothels
On the surface, the Kong family is a famous family, after a saint, it is an upright family, but in fact, the Kong family is completely rotten, and the rot is clean. There is no Kong family behind what these hooligans do. shadow?

Although the Kong family cannot be tried now, these local ruffians are enough to serve as an appetizer.

"Today, I will be the master for the big guys, none of these local hooligans can escape!"

Following a burst of gunshots like roasted beans, after the smoke rose, the hooligans fell on the public trial platform, causing the people in the audience to cheer and cheer, but in Yanshenggong Mansion, the masters of the Kong family felt chills all over their bodies: today's hooligans , so why not tomorrow's self?

The end of the Kong family is really coming!
The Kong family will not be given any chance to make a comeback. This time, the Kong family is completely finished!
