The First Corrupt Official of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 212 General Ye returned and guarded the country with Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang. The Yanmen defenders collectively discovered the truth!

In the eyes of Zhu Yuanzhang and Mao Xiang, they saw four lines of government servants wearing gilded light armor who had already lined up and were waiting.

At first glance, these government officials, who are as well-equipped as Jinyiwei, number in the hundreds.

In front of them, there were ten light cavalry wearing personal armor and sharp eyes.

Zhu Yuanzhang was very familiar with this look in his eyes, and he was absolutely certain that they were the elites of the Yanmen Special Agent Brigade.

Ten agents pretending to be soldiers were standing in front of Ye Qing, who was getting on his horse.

under the sunset,

On the back of the big white horse of Zhaoye Jade Lion wearing an exquisite vest, a young general wearing Mingguang armor made in the Tang Dynasty was looking straight ahead.

The gold-plated tiger head, shoulders and breastplate reflect the dazzling golden light!
A body of bright silver armor with fish scales also reflects little bits of silver light!

The two colors of gold and silver intersect, and the proportion of gold and silver is perfect. It is really suitable for Mr. Ye, who is rich and has the heart of civil servants!
The people on both sides didn't speak, and there were no shouts to greet the general. They just dispersed on their own initiative to make way for the road leading to Yanmen Pass.

But the look in their eyes at this moment was enough to show their feelings for Ye Qing.

"Why don't you come to my side?"

"Let me try the sense of ceremony with the marshal in front and the deputy general on both sides!"

"If you didn't want to follow, these two positions would belong to Wu Yong and others!"

Ye Qing looked at the two men holding the horses in front of him, as if it would be an honor for them to be his lieutenants.

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't say anything, and he got on his horse with Mao Xiang and went to the positions of lieutenants on the left and right of Ye Qing.

At the same time, deep in Zhu Yuanzhang's heart, he opened the 'Grudge Book' specially prepared for Ye Qing.

He immediately made a note: "Ye Qing's ceremonial guard is like that of a king, which is a crime of violating the rules. Letting the emperor's green leaves stand out with red flowers is a crime of disrespect, which is equivalent to the crime of treason"!
Mao Xiang, who was riding on the right side of Ye Qing, saw Zhu Yuanzhang's gloomy expression and immediately looked at Ye Qing, who was riding a big white horse with his head held high.

He really looked like he didn't know how to write the word "death"!

Not only that, with his winning temperament, it can even be said that he doesn't even know how to write the word "defeat"!
"You'd better not lose,"

"Others are not guilty of a small defeat, but you, a civil servant wearing armor, will lose if you win a small victory. If you lose, you will die!"

"."

Mao Xiang knew Zhu Yuanzhang too well.

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't react to Ye Qing's ceremonial ceremony just now, and he happily accepted Ye Qing's arrangement. It can be said that he didn't react at all.

But precisely because of this, it was enough to show that he was really murderous.

He can be sure that if the result of this battle is not a perfect victory, if those mysterious new weapons have no miraculous effects and are just a bluff, the result of Ye Qing's war will definitely be death!
After half an hour,
The gate of the military camp inside Yanmen Pass,

The troops guarding the middle gate all lined up on both sides, and even the soldiers on the city wall all faced the direction of the city.

At this moment, they were just facing the avenue leading directly from the camp gate to the city gate tower, and they all clenched their right hands into fists and pressed them lightly against their left chests.

This is another military salute in the Ming Dynasty. It can be an oath ceremony or a ceremony to welcome the general.

But Ye Qing has never been their general!

It was obviously the Yanmen Arsenal that he, Ye Qing, opened with his own money, but there was never any production plan to make weapons and armor for him, Ye Qing. If it weren't for this 'legacy' from the Tang Dynasty, he wouldn't even have the armor and armor. There are no weapons!

In the eyes of the soldiers, his ancient Tang Dynasty equipment was so incompatible and unique compared with their Ming Dynasty equipment.

But it definitely doesn’t feel out of place, because this is still the equipment of the Chinese nation, and it represents the equipment they yearn for!
Even after they saw this Mingguang armor and the Tang Hengdao at their waist, they instantly thought of Ye Qing's promise to them back then.

"As long as you listen to me, I will turn this ruin into the prosperous Tang Dynasty Chang'an!"

"."

After the soldiers thought of these words, their eyes suddenly felt hot, and then their vision became a little blurry.

They only saw a general from the Tang Dynasty, riding a white horse, walking on the road heading towards the gate tower of Yanmenguan.

Suddenly, they suddenly had an illusion!
The general from the Tang Dynasty, wearing the official uniform of the Ming Dynasty, brought this border town that had been reduced to ruins by the Northern Barbarians back to the prosperous age of the Tang Dynasty!
Now, he has taken off the official uniform of the Ming Dynasty and put on the armor of the Tang Dynasty again. He wants to lead them, the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, to protect this hard-won prosperity!
At this moment, the Yanmen garrison immediately thought of the origin of Yanmen Pass.

Before the Tang Dynasty, although Yanmen County was an important military town, it only garrisoned troops and never established a pass.

During the Zhenguan period, a general named Ye, under the order of Emperor Taizong, built a pass here, and this is how Yanmen Pass Military Town came into being.

To this day, although the generals who guarded the gate in the past dynasties have built additional buildings, they all built with the architectural ideas of General Ye as the core.

In other words, the generals who guarded the gates of the past dynasties all recognized the defensive ideas of General Ye who built the iron-wrapped gate at the middle gate and the 'Stone Wall Maze Array' outside!

It's just that they don't know why, the story about General Ye has not been published in official history!
They only learned from their ancestors who lived here that the Tang general who built Yanmen Pass had the same surname as Mr. Ye.

Looking at Ye Qing, who was wearing the Mingguang Armor of the Tang Dynasty and carrying the Tang Hengdao at his waist, and imagining this coincidence of having the same surname spanning 700 years, they suddenly had an illusion.

It's an illusion that he's back!
It's an illusion that General Ye, who built Yanmen Pass but is missing from official history, is back!

It is General Ye’s spirit in heaven that cannot bear the decline of Yanmen, so he is reincarnated as Master Ye to rebuild the illusion of Yanmen!
At the same time, it was also the illusion that General Ye put on his armor again and fought for Yanmen and China again together with these young men!
To them, this is an illusion!
But they are willing to take this illusion as reality, at least until the war is over!
"The general is mighty!"

"The general is mighty!!"

"The general is mighty!!!"

Zhu Yuanzhang and Mao Xiang, who were riding diagonally behind Ye Qing, looked at the soldiers standing upright on both sides, looked at the soldiers facing them on the city wall, and listened to the sound that frightened the birds in the mountains and made the streams tremble. .

The sound is really not sharp and harsh, but it is enough to make the eardrums beat and pierce the soul.

They have experienced this kind of scene countless times, but only three times!
The reason why I have experienced it countless times is because I have participated in countless wars in my life, and there is such a scene before every war.

But this kind of formation, from the eyes to the voice, is enough to express absolute recognition of the commander. Counting this time, I have only experienced it three times.

The first time was the battle to unify Jiangnan led by him, Marshal Zhu!

The second time was the battle of the troops led by 'General Xu Da' to march north into the Central Plains to expel the Hulu!
The third time is this Yanmen defensive battle!
It's just that they couldn't figure it out for a while. How could this civil servant who had never had any achievements be recognized by the soldiers from the bottom of their hearts?

Is it because Ye Qing allowed them to eat well, wear well, live well, and have better equipment?
Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang also frowned slightly.

It stands to reason that the defensive battle under the command of this civilian commander who has never had a record has become an unchangeable conclusion. He should be happy to see this situation.

There is no other reason,

Although the experience is worrying, the good thing is that the soldiers are united!
But this kind of absolute recognition from the heart made him even more worried!

If this battle was won, would Ye Qing still be the god in the hearts of the soldiers on this side?
In this way, as long as he, Ye Qing, has an idea for the dragon throne in the sky, these soldiers will be an indomitable vanguard army!In short, in one sentence, he hoped that the soldiers would listen to Ye Qing at this time, but he definitely did not want the soldiers to recognize Ye Qing from the bottom of their hearts!
Thinking of this, he opened the 'Grudge Book' prepared for Ye Qing deep in his heart, and quickly wrote down, 'Ye Qing has gained the military's support too much, which is very worrying'!
At this very moment,
Ye Qing suddenly stopped his horse at the gate of Yanmen Pass.

He turned the horse's head, put his right fist against his breastplate lightly, and shouted with great energy: "The Ming army is mighty!"

next moment,
The four words "Mighty Army of the Ming Dynasty" also echoed throughout the pass.

Because of these four words, Zhu Yuanzhang erased more than half of the account he just wrote down, but he only erased more than half of it!

After a while, the three of them had arrived at the corridor on the third floor of the city gate building.

At this moment, the sunset is about to completely set in the west, and only the blood-stained red clouds are left on the horizon!
Under the bloody red clouds, Ye Qing and the others stood on the corridor on the third floor of the city gate building, looking at the vaguely visible group of white tents opposite.

The expanse of white on the green grassland can be said to be very conspicuous under the bloody red clouds.

But due to the distance, Ye Qing and the others could only see, but not clearly!
Looking at the scene in front of him, Ye Qing didn't have much emotion. He just felt that it was very familiar, the kind of familiarity that was repeated over and over again.

He has been a general for three generations and has fought too many battles with the northern nomads. He is really familiar with it and it is not much different from an industrial assembly line.

It is said that the battlefield changes rapidly, but in his eyes, the battlefield is constantly changing and at the same time very orderly.

For example, he was absolutely sure that the group of white tents opposite would be on fire tonight!
And at this moment,
Zhu Yuanzhang, who was standing on Ye Qing's left, was filled with emotion.

Yes,

In the eyes of Ye Qing and others, he was just Mr. Guo who could talk to the emperor, but he was actually the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang himself.

"This is our first time coming to Yanmen Pass to fight in person!"

Speaking of this, the overwhelming fighting spirit of 'the emperor defends the country' bursts out in his heart.

"personally?"

Ye Qing looked at Mr. Guo in front of him and asked as if he was confused.

Zhu Yuanzhang hurriedly explained: "If we are not injured, we can follow General Zhenglu and participate in the first Northern Expedition."

"Unfortunately"

Speaking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang still looked like it was "a real regret in his life".

When Ye Qing heard this, he nodded as if he had some understanding, because he understood the meaning of the word 'in person'.

At this very moment,
Ye Qing saw from Master Guo in front of him his yearning for the battlefield, a simple veteran's yearning for the battlefield.

Because of this, he, who was actually the oldest veteran, suddenly thought of a question.

"Master Guo, no, General Guo!"

"do you hate me?"

Ye Qing looked at Mr. Guo in front of him, saying he was serious or serious, casual or casual.

When Zhu Yuanzhang faced this problem, he was only serious and not casual.

In fact, he didn't know how to answer Ye Qing. To say that he didn't hate him, sometimes he really wanted to cut him to pieces on the spot!

To be honest, sometimes I wish I could just pack up Ye Qing and take him back to the court!

But if I talk about it at this moment, I really don’t hate it!

Zhu Yuanzhang said seriously: "I don't hate it!"

Ye Qing just smiled and nodded: "Aren't you afraid that I will forcefully pull your body and put you in danger?"

Zhu Yuanzhang not only smiled slightly, but also had a look of confidence in his eyes: "Don't be afraid, even if we are gone, our son can hold up the family, and our family business will not collapse."

"As long as our boss is here, his mother will not be bullied, and those shopkeepers can't bully him as the head of the family."

"As for us, it would be better to die on horseback than to die on the hospital bed!"

Ye Qing could tell that Mr. Guo in front of him was telling the truth.

Especially the phrase 'It is better to die on horseback than to die on the sick bed', which is really what a veteran should say.

At least, at this moment, under this situation, what he said was the truth from the bottom of his heart!

Thinking of this, Ye Qing, a true veteran, couldn't help but secretly praise Mr. Guo in front of him, "You will be formidable in life."

Ye Qing lay on the fence and said in a leisurely tone: "It seems that you have taught your son well. He is indeed someone who has been with His Majesty."

"As soon as I said this, I thought of His Royal Highness. It's a pity."

Having said this, Ye Qing immediately shut up, almost spoiling the future uncontrollably.

But Zhu Yuanzhang next to him frowned and pricked up his ears!

But at this very moment,

Liu Zhong, the guard at the central gate of Yanmen Pass, suddenly ran up.

"Lord Ye,"

"According to your instructions, the standing garrison of the east and west gates, the middle gate, and the three gates have all been assembled!"

Ye Qing just nodded lightly and looked at the sky again.

It's not dark yet, but it won't be long before it gets dark!
Ye Qing decisively ordered: "All standing garrison troops will change defenses with the garrison."

"Everyone goes home for the holidays and returns to camp at the end of Yin and Mao Chu (five o'clock in the morning)!"

When guard Liu Zhong heard this, his eyes could be said to be extremely complicated. It was timely, unexpected, and full of expectations.

You must know that the standing garrison is different from the garrison. Although they are both descendants of Yanmen, the former do not go home for a long time, while the latter often go home.

They must be looking forward to being able to go home before the war.

But if they go home, the newly replaced garrison troops will not be as familiar with the city defense equipment as they are.

The defenders all understand this, and the former 'Marshal Zhu' all understand this.

When Zhu Yuanzhang listened to Ye Qing's confused military orders, the good impression he had on Ye Qing just now made him angry! .
　Please follow up with the support of the officials, please recommend tickets, monthly tickets, and reward support, thank you!
