Chapter 21 Exit the Great Wall, Paul's corpse!

"Oh?" Boyan suddenly became interested, and hurriedly asked, "Which tribe do you belong to?"

Ha Ming replied: "The family ancestor came from the Wuliangha tribe. He was incorporated into the Three Thousand Battalion with Emperor Taizong Jingnan of the Ming Dynasty. When he came to my father, he was transferred to the Jinyiwei. Now a certain one has taken care of my father's vacancy and is still working in the Jinyiwei. "

Boyan asked again: "What is your position in Jinyiwei?"

Ha Ming didn't hide anything, and said bluntly: "No official, no job, just an ordinary captain."

Boyan secretly regretted that such a talent turned out to be just an ordinary school lieutenant. What do Ming officials do for food?
"You come to our department and let you be the commander-in-chief, how about it?"

Facing such lures, Ha Ming remained calm and said, "Thank you General for your kindness. Although I am not talented, I know what it means to be one minister and not serve two masters."

Boyan shook his head again and again, and sighed: "It's a pity, what a pity, it seems that we can only meet on the battlefield!"

Ha Ming grinned and laughed, and said, "It's really enjoyable to fight against General Boyan face to face!"

Seeing the other party's reaction like this, Boyan knew in his heart that it was hopeless to win over.

Thinking of this, he turned around and sat down, with the smile on his face back.

"Tell me, what did the little emperor ask you to do? If you want to ask for peace, you have to show some sincerity!"

Ha Ming also put away his smile, and said solemnly: "As ordered by the Emperor Daming, I will tell you to withdraw from the Great Wall, and Paul will be dead!"

call!
Boyan almost jumped up, and said angrily, "What did you say?"

"Exit the Great Wall, Paul's dead body!"

Neither humble nor overbearing, Ha Ming repeated it word by word.

The muscles on Boyan's face were twitching non-stop, and the anger spurting out of his eyes seemed to melt the person in front of him.

"Do you know where this is? Are you not afraid of death?"

Ha Ming just smiled lightly, but didn't answer.

Boyan was furious, but there was nothing he could do. If he really wanted to kill the messenger, he would really look petty.

However, these eight words were like a thorn, piercing deeply into his heart. This feeling... is worse than death!

"Okay, okay!" Boyan gritted his teeth and said, "Please also go back and tell the little emperor that within ten days at most, I will personally take his life!"

Ha Ming cupped his hands and said, "Our army is camping five miles away, waiting for you at any time!"

After finishing speaking, he turned around and left, but was stopped by the guards in front of the tent.

Ha Ming stopped and said without looking back, "Is this how General Boyan treats guests?"

Boyan let out a heavy breath, waved his hand, and motioned to let him go.

Only then did Ha Ming turn around, clasped his fists in salute, and left.

"General, do you just let him go?"

The guards in front of the tent were very puzzled. These eight words sounded so real that no one could stand the anger.

"So what if we don't let him go?" Boyan shook his head and said, "Killing this one person won't solve the problem, let's see each other on the battlefield!"

"General..."

"Don't talk about it. Although I have lost two battles, I am a dignified General Oara, and I will not compete with a mere messenger."

"no……"

"I know you're all upset, this matter is settled like this, don't say anything else!"

"General!" The guard suddenly shouted, rushing to say, "The Grand Master is here too!"

Boyan was taken aback, and hurriedly got up and walked out of the big tent to meet him.

When Ha Ming returned to the Ming army camp, he first told Boyan's reaction, Zhang Fu and others couldn't help but drop their jaws.

This kind of humiliation can be endured, and you didn't chop your kid on the spot?
It seems that Boyan is also a character, who can tolerate the next moment of anger, this kind of person should not be underestimated.

Ha Ming was even more unbelievable, I don't know how the emperor selected such a person, ran to the opposite camp, humiliated his coach and tens of thousands of soldiers, and was able to retreat unscathed.

Why didn't I know there were such talents in Jinyiwei before...

"Your Majesty, when I humbled myself to return to the camp, I saw that Yexian's army had already arrived, with a total of 8 to [-] people. It seems that they may continue to attack tomorrow."

Chen Ying was the first to panic, and said: "Your Majesty, we don't even have one or two gunpowder now. If Wala attacks again, Shenjiying can only use the firecracker as a stick."

Zhang Fu said disdainfully: "What's wrong with the stick? After all, the firecracker is also forged from fine iron, I don't believe it, it can't kill the Wala people when you swing it?"

"That's what you say, but..." Chen Ying immediately retorted, "After all, firearms are powerful. Everyone has seen the results of our Shenji Camp in the previous battles. If there were no firearms, I don't know how many people would have been killed or injured!"

"okay!"

Zhu Qizhen waved his hand to stop the quarrel between the two, and said: "The tactical status of the Shenji Battalion is very important. This is indisputable. However, without firearms, the battle is still going to be fought. We need to change the battle plan."

Only then did everyone quiet down, waiting for the emperor's instructions.

Zhu Qizhen looked at the rocks not far away, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

As night fell, bonfires were lit everywhere in the Ming army's positions, just like daytime.

Under the leadership of Chen Huai, more than 500 soldiers began to dig soil and mud with their arms bare.

There are more than 500 people, but they are digging mountains and quarrying stones.

There are also 500 people logging around. If you saw this scene without knowing it, you would think that some construction team was going to do a lot of construction here.

Chen Huai was also very confused. How did he become an engineering team?

At first it was digging a horse pit, which is nothing, but what is building a kiln for?What do you do with quarrying and logging?
Could it be that the emperor intends to burn bricks on the spot and build a city wall?
Having said that, it is a good idea to build a city wall, but the problem is that there is not enough time, and it is impossible for the first hundred thousand troops to watch you build the wall!

With his mind full of question marks, Chen Huai worked all night back and forth, built five simple brick kilns, and then burned them with firewood until dawn, which was roughly formed.

Zhu Qizhen went forward to check it out. Although it was a bit crude, it should be enough to deal with the current situation.

Immediately afterwards, he ordered people to move the stones collected on the spot into the kiln, added firewood again, sealed the mouth and continued to roast and calcine.

At the same time, the soldiers were divided into several groups, and the felled trees were made into simple trebuchets one after another.

This thing also has a name, which is the cannon.

That's right, the cannon next to the stone.

This thing has a long history. It appeared in the Spring and Autumn Period and Warring States Period. For example, it is recorded in "Fan Li's Art of War": "The flying stone weighs twelve catties, and it is sent by the machine and travels two hundred steps."

Seeing these catapults, Chen Huai was always full of doubts, and asked cautiously: "Your Majesty, can this thing really defeat the enemy?"

"I want the Wala people to understand a truth."

The corners of Zhu Qizhen's mouth raised slightly, revealing a mysterious smile.

"Science and technology are the primary productive forces!"
