Chapter 449 The power of black eggs

Lin Mao turned his head and found that his second son was pale with fear and his legs were weak. He couldn't help but feel annoyed and kicked him over and ordered: "Why are you standing there? Throw the black eggs! The further away, the better!"

Lin Shan didn't know whether he didn't hear what he said, or he didn't dare to touch the black powder and pretended not to hear. In short, he didn't react.

Lin Shan was frightened and felt cold at the same time. Why?Why is it that everyone knows about this weapon, but he doesn’t?
At this time, he had not remembered that when Lin Mao convened the soldiers to discuss today's affairs last night, he was discussing the strategy of "burning the camp with fire" with his counselors and did not attend that extremely important meeting.

Seeing his son like this, Lin Mao felt embarrassed and didn't bother to care about him. Instead, he went to see the power of black powder.

The enemy came menacingly, lying on the ground in a mess.

Lin Mao laughed loudly, Damn it, Beiyan dared to seize the city of Dashun!I will let you taste the power of the black eggs developed by my daughter-in-law!
Beiyan's soldiers were killed and injured numerous times. They were even scared to death, ran away crying, and abandoned their armor.

Lin Mao shouted loudly: "Chase the enemy! Annihilate the enemy!"

Lin Xiao turned around and walked down the city wall. The vanguard army was waiting at the bottom of the city. When he saw the vanguard generals, they were all excited.

They heard the black powder explosion under the city gate, and they also heard the cheers of their friends on the city wall. It was time for them to take the stage!

The city gate opened and Lin Xiao shouted loudly: "Follow me and annihilate the enemy!"

"Destroy the enemy!"

"Destroy the enemy!"

"Destroy the enemy!"

……

The forward army of [-] cavalry rushed out of the city gate with great momentum and killed the defeated Yan army.

Every soldier of the Lin Family Army knew in their hearts that only by annihilating the main force of the enemy army and scaring them so much that they would never dare to invade Dashun again could Dashun recuperate.

Blood dyed the land outside Jiang City red, and the shouts and screams made the sunset even more blood-red.

From now on, the Lin Jiajun began to bloodbath the Yan Kingdom.

The war flags of the Lin family army were planted in every city in the south of Yan State, all the way to the capital of Yan State.

The Emperor of Yan was so frightened that he ran away, leaving the Prime Minister to negotiate with the Lin family army.

In the end, the Lin family army escorted countless gold, silver and grains, and returned to Dashun with Yan's negotiating envoys.

Many years later, the people of Yan still shudder when talking about that war.

……

Ganzhou.

"Boom!"

Tang Yuanshan stared blankly at the rock that had been blasted open.

Wu Dawan, who had been covering his ears for a long time, poked the world's best master on the shoulder with his elbow and asked, "How is it?"

The black powder sent to Ganzhou was delivered by him in the escort car. He was frightened along the way, fearing that it would suddenly explode. Fortunately, there was no danger along the way.

It took Tang Yuanshan a while to find his hearing and asked, "What did you say?"

Wu Dawan grinned and said, "Her uncle, what are you waiting for? Let's start the war!"

Tang Yuanshan came back to his senses, laughed loudly, and said to his son Tang Yi, who had just returned, "Start the war!"

On the fifth day of the siege with the Tatars, the soldiers and horses of the Tang army suddenly took out black powder. Not only did they blow up the Tatar army to death, but they also blew open the gate of the Tatar country, all the way to the Tatar Khan. The king's account.

From then on, the Tatars surrendered to Dashun and remained vassal for nearly 300 years.

……

Yanzhou.

Yang Chengen sat in the big tent, looking at the sand table with a sad face.

Butler Du, who was wearing armor, was even more worried than Yang Chengen. He said: "Old Duke, our Yang family army only has 16 troops. It is a bit stretched to be stationed in such a large place."

Yang Zhen has already led a large force into the Tubo territory, and the journey was unstoppable. This morning, flying pigeons sent a message, and the Tubo royal family fled collectively, leaving the entire Tubo army to the Yang family.

Soon, Yang Zhen will arrange for the Yang family army to garrison Tubo and incorporate Tubo into Dashun's territory.

Yang Chengen sighed and said: "These soldiers have followed our Yang family through life and death. We can't win the battle, and we let them stay in this bitter cold place."

Guan Du said: "Perhaps, after returning to Beijing, the court can come up with a solution."

There is no problem for the Yang family army to garrison Tubo for one to two years, three to five years, or even ten to eight years.

But we can't let these men stay here all their lives and not be able to return to their hometown!

Yang Chengen sighed again and said, "It is my Yang family that feels sorry for these soldiers!"

Butler Du knew that this was a difficult problem. No one was willing to garrison Tubo. He was afraid that in the end, the soldiers of the Yang Family Army would remain in this bitter cold land.

A messenger came in and handed a flying pigeon message.Butler Du opened it and looked at it. He was stunned on the spot, and then gave the note to Yang Chengen.

Yang Chengen read the note, suddenly sat down weakly and closed his eyes.

His sister, once the only female general in Dashun, the sister who devoted her life to Dashun and the Yang family, died.

Butler Du said softly: "Old Duke, let's... go back."

Yang Chengen calmed down, nodded slightly, and said: "The deputy general will stay at the camp. You call a few people to follow me back to Beijing... for the funeral!"

When Yang Chengen hurried back to Beijing, it had been more than ten days since the new emperor ascended the throne.

As the former commander-in-chief of the Yang Family Army, although Yang Chengen is only a member of the army now, he cannot return directly to the palace, but has to enter the palace first.

Naturally, the Empress Dowager could not embarrass Yang Chengen. After briefly asking about the war ahead, she asked him to return home for the funeral.

When Yang Mu returned to the Yang family the next day, Butler Du told Yang Mu the situation of the Yang family's soldiers.

Yang Mu thought for a moment and said, "Maybe I have a solution for this matter."

Yang Mu found Yang Chengen who was sitting in the mourning hall in a daze. After offering incense to Yang Siyue, Yang Mu spoke.

"grandfather."

Yang Chengen turned around and saw his proud granddaughter. He squeezed out a smile and waved.

Yang Mu sat on the futon next to Yang Chengen and said, "Steward Du told me that the Tubo royal family fled, leaving an empty shell behind."

Yang Chengen sighed and said, "I feel sorry for the soldiers of the Yang Family Army."

Yang Mudao: "Since Tubo is now the territory of Dashun, the imperial court should govern it like other places."

Yang Chengen said: "Tubo has different folk customs from ours. Just sending a general can't suppress them at all."

Yang Mudao: "Not just the generals, but local officials will go with the generals. Let's open up Enke, educate the people, and follow Confucianism."

Yang Chengen was stunned, "Follow Confucianism?"

Yang Mu continued: "The imperial court opened a free school in Tubo to teach the Tubo Dashun script. It also set up rural examinations and government examinations in Tubo. Those who passed the test could also be sent by bus to Beijing to take the Enke Jinshi examination, or they could be my Dashun students. Officials. However, the people of Tubo and Dashun can intermarry and trade freely. Tubo household registration will no longer be established, but Dashun household registration will be unified."

Yang Chengen was stunned for a long time, and suddenly realized something.

This method can completely turn Tubo into a part of Dashun. This is a silent method of moisturizing things.

Yang Chengen wrote notes overnight and reported Yang Mu's method to the Empress Dowager and Empress Dowager Cixi.

After the two palaces read the excerpt, Empress Dowager Cixi was slower to respond, but the Empress Dowager already understood the key point.

After the imperial court agreed, preparations for this policy soon began.

Before Yang Zhen returned to the court, the court had already begun to select talented people to go to Tubo. This is a story later.

Nowadays, the Yang family is in troubled times. After Chen and Yang Mo were buried together, Yang Siyue's funeral will be three days later.

The Empress Dowager and Empress Dowager Cixi were grateful for Yang Siyue's achievements and dedication. After discussion, they issued an edict to bury Yang Siyue with state rites.

This was the only female general from the Dashun Dynasty who was buried with national honors. Although she only had one heroic achievement in saving the country during her lifetime, which was decades ago, her whole life was dedicated to Dashun and she was the one who saved the country. He is a hero, so no one in the whole court opposes him.

The state ceremony was complicated, and the officials of the Ministry of Rites personally performed it with great grandeur, even vaguely catching up with the burial regulations of Emperor Longxing who was buried not long ago.

For such a big funeral, even the Ministry of Rites didn't say much, because the treasury was currently using money from the Bai family, and the Empress Dowager was a relative of the Bai family.

On the day Yang Siyue was buried, white paper money was flying all over the sky, and the funeral procession stretched for more than ten miles.

Some people who had been rescued by the Suzaku Army spontaneously held roadside sacrifices, and the atmosphere was somber.

Tang Jing, who was following Yang Mu on horseback, said: "There was such a funeral once in the previous dynasty, for Princess Qilin who was stationed at Niangzi Pass. I heard that on that day, hundreds of generals saw off the funeral, and the scene was no worse than today."

Of course this princess, Yang Mu, knew that she was not from a royal family, but as a single woman, she kept the peace of the Dacheng Dynasty for decades.

Princess Qilin's daughter later succeeded her mother's title and still stationed at Niangzi Pass, creating a good story.

On the second day after the funeral, good news from the border came frequently. Yang Mu, the great hero who developed black gunpowder, the Empress Dowager and Empress Dowager Cixi issued a decree and were canonized as the Princess Protector, ranking above all princesses. , and was awarded a first-class knighthood.

From then on, Yang Mu became the most noble woman under the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager of the Dashun Dynasty, and she was also the only woman who could stand among the princes in the court.

Originally there were people who were opposed to women going to court, but Bai Zhuo, the new top pick, Su Jinyu, the second top pick, and Lin Yong, the top pick, all came out one after another with bright tongues.

They questioned the opposing courtiers:
Are there any family members in the mansion who have been saved by the Suzaku Army?
Was his life saved by the Suzaku Army?

If there was no Yang Mu in the Sun Palace Change that day, would it be different now?
Without black powder, how many soldiers would Dashun have to die to defend their homeland?

You are able to stand here alive and talk only because of Yang Mu!

The courtiers shut up and said nothing, it was a mistake!
However, the people who went to court today did not know that because of today's silence, because of today's wrongdoing, and because of today's acquiescence, the Dashun Dynasty would be completely different.

As soon as the first woman goes to court, there will be a second and third one!

　The next chapter is the finale, and there will be an extra chapter after that, all released today!
