Chapter 1050 Chaos in the East Xinjiang

There may never be absolutely fair in this world.

For example, the powerful Mongol Wolf riding was invincible on the grassland, but looking at a Yishui could only sigh. The Black Flag Army's naval ship's dominance on the waterway was unshakable. The tactics of building floating bridges learned from the Han people were completely unable to be used under the crushing of the Black Flag Army's naval forces.

The closest success was that the floating bridge built in advance rushed into the river under the lifting of hundreds of people. Unfortunately, because the width of the Yishui River was inaccurate, the floating bridge was so short that it was so short that before the Mongols and Yuan people thought about how to continue, the archers of the Black Flag Army Navy used feather arrows to slaughter the soldiers carrying the floating bridge for a while.

Later, the Mongols changed their ways and forced many Han people to carry the floating bridge into the water. The soldiers of the Black Flag Army did not dare to shoot arrows anymore, but they put down two fire boats from the upstream and directly broke the floating bridge. Then the navy's ships began to save people. Most of the people who fell into the water were rescued.

The Mongols tried every means to get through it.

"Sometimes I feel really helpless."

Da Zizai looked at Mr. Jiu's departure and shook his head: "This world has become different because of the practitioners. What depends on whether a country is strong or not? A powerful army? A rich granary? Or a billion people? It's not... Sometimes even as a practitioner, I want to scold you..."

Meng Ge looked at him with a little contempt in his eyes.

"You are really hypocritical."

He said.

Da Zizai laughed: "It is indeed unacceptable to the people who dominate a country, not a powerful army, especially you, your respected Majesty. If there are no practitioners in this world, perhaps the war will become fair. Now it is just Xiao Yijiu who is blocking this place, so we cannot pass. But then again, even if there are no practitioners in this world, it is not easy for you to cross the river. The gunboats of the Black Flag Army are like beasts of prehistoric times, and there is no dragon-slaying sword in your hand."

He sat down and said, "How is it fair? Is there a fairness in this world? If there is no practitioner, you must devote yourself to developing weapons, just like the current Black Flag Army. After having firearms, the combat power of the Black Flag Army is amazing. In the past, there was an unwritten rule between countries, that is, great practitioners do not participate in wars between countries, but this rule is meaningless. Which practitioner does not take action when he sees his country being infringed?"

Mengge said: "Even the most powerful practitioner can kill all the people in this world?"

Da Zizai shook his head: "No"

Mengge said: "So, it is still relatively fair to have practitioners in this world. When great practitioners are uncontrollable, they may not even protect the lives of the emperor. But when weapons are out of control, they will not protect the world."

“You are already a faithful believer of God.”

Da Zizai smiled and said, "I am happy for you."

Mengge shook his head: "Maybe, I'm wrong."

"Why?"

Great freedom ask.

Meng Ge took a deep breath: "Although I made a decision after going down the mountain from Dalun Temple, I always had a question in my heart that I couldn't understand. What kind of development is the right one... A practitioner will decide the fate of the country? This is not possible, just like the King of Dalun has always suppressed my Kuoke Taimeng family for more than a thousand years. He can decide the life and death of the entire Golden Family at any time. Unless a true great practitioner who can defeat Dalun King of Dalun King of Otherwise, this fate will not change unless Dalun King of Dalun King of Dalun dies."

"However, if the weapon with the ability to destroy the world is in the hands of the emperor, it is more suitable."

Da Zizai said inexplicably: "Didn't you just say that there are relatively fair worlds for practitioners?"

Mengge said: "What I mean is fairness to ordinary people. The practitioners are above all else. Even if they lose control, they will only kill nobles and royal families, and they will not kill innocent people indiscriminately. But after the weapons reach such power, once they are used, they will involve ordinary people. This Eastern Expedition was not a decision made by standing in the position of the Mongol Khan. I am not a god, but my thoughts are different from most people."

"I can't understand."

Da Zizai said: "I thought you made a decision for the rise of the Mongols."

"If it was for the rise of the Mongol Yuan, I would rather develop firearms like the Black Flag Army."

Mengge glanced at Da Zizai: "For the people of the world, my choice is right. Only for the Golden Family, my choice is wrong. I don't know why I made such a decision. When I saw that scene in Dalun Temple, I knew that I had to stop it from happening. At that moment, I forgot that I was the Great Khan of the Mongolian Yuan and forgot that I was carrying the mission of the rise of the Golden Family."

Da Zizai frowned: "You... are really contradictory."

Meng Ge looked over the river and pointed and said, "If you can't kill Xiao Yijiu within three days and then destroy the naval gunboats of the Black Flag Army, I will take my troops back. Now my losses are not too great. After returning, after resting for a while, the national strength of the Mongol Yuan can recover. I have gradually emerged from the mentality of doing this for the people of the world. If there are more setbacks, I will become the original me."

Da Zizai was silent for a while and said, "Okay, in three days, if Mr. Jiu does not come back, even if we four fight to the death, they will not stop Xiao Yijiu from stopping you."

Meng Ge shook his head: "Until now you haven't thought of one thing clearly... In this Eastern Expedition, the Buddha Sect is the main force, and I just took the wolf rider to cooperate. Because your Buddha Sect is the faithful believer and slave of God, and I am not. If you have to separate it, at most I am just a helper of God."

Da Zizai was shocked, and he suddenly thought that he had ignored something.

Mengge did agree to God's pursuit and take action, but Mengge was first a great knight. When he saw the power of the Black Flag Army's firearms, how could he not be moved? Once this great knight felt that the development of firearms was the way humans should take, then this eastern expedition was afraid that it would be abandoned halfway.

Chang'an City

Fang Jie walked on the street without disguising or blocking his face. In fact, not many people in Chang'an City really knew Fang Jie, and even those people on the East Twenty-san Street were not everyone remembered Fang Jie's face. Chang'an City is too big, and most of the people who have never seen Fang Jie are.

He walked on the streets of Xicheng, where he rarely came here, so the people did not recognize him.

At this time, his mood was different from that in Chang'an City when he was walking on the street. When he was in Chang'an City, he looked at Chang'an with a look upward attitude, thinking that this place was too big, even if he was in it, he had the illusion that he was very far away from Chang'an.

Now, he looked at Chang'an's mood and said it was a bit vulgar, like a wealthy businessman walking in the industry under his name.

To put it more majestic and domineering, it means... the emperor is patrolling his territory.

These days, the situation in Chang'an City has gradually stabilized. Those damn people have already killed them. Every day, a group of criminals will be executed. Just like after the rebellion of King Yi and Yang Yin, there will be a scene where a group of people will be lost in their heads every day.

The city has now reached a very delicate balance. Fang Jie needs to kill a group of people to establish his authority, so that everyone can know who is the master of Chang'an City now. The idea of ​​those living court officials is to sacrifice a group of people in exchange for Fang Jie's acceptance. Both sides take their own needs, and the dead are just big waves to wash away the sand.

"Master"

Chen Xiaoru caught up from Fang Jie, lowered his voice and said, "There is news coming from Dongjiang."

Dongjiang

Phoenix Station

This famous border town in the Great Sui Dynasty is now incomplete, with scars on the city walls, and the traces left by artillery shells are shocking. There are not a few battlements left on the city walls, but the red battle flag of the Great Sui Dynasty standing on the city walls is still fluttering with the wind, even though it is so broken.

I have been holding on to this place for a long time, and many people have died here.

Even though the army of the Oplu Empire had powerful firearms, sometimes the perseverance and fighting spirit of soldiers were the key factors that determine the outcome of a war. Dong Chu was easily destroyed. As a close neighbor of Dong Chu, the Sui people showed a fighting spirit that made foreigners respect.

The people who are now responsible for guarding this border town are the men of the Black Flag Army Nalan Dingdong.

He led a hundred thousand troops to leave the foundation, left his familiar hometown, and traveled thousands of miles from the southwest to Dongjiang. Then he began a fierce battle with foreigners for a moment, never taking a step back.

Nalan Dingdong stood on the city wall and looked at the foreigners' camp in the distance, feeling a little uneasy. It has been half a month since Mu Guangling's promised supplies have not been sent over. If this continues, the army will be out of food in ten days. This is still the case when the Black Flag Army has the support of the world.

The foreigners' fleet entered the inland from the estuary of the Yangtze River and then attacked the Sui army's retreat respectively. Because they were a little careless in inquiring about information, the Zhao family army, which came from Jiangdu, was defeated and was defeated by the foreigners' army in one breath. As a result, the situation immediately became chaotic.

Now, the Han army is in front of the Han people and behind it. There are Han people in front of the foreigners, and there are not necessarily those behind. The total number of Han troops in each group is more than one million, but there is no unified command and dispatch, like a pile of sand. Everyone who comes wants to resist the enemy outside the country, but no one accepts anyone.

At that time, Mu Guangling sent six troops to assist the Phoenix Platform, but five of them did not send troops at all. One of them arrived at the Phoenix Platform was a coalition of troops from the green forest roads in the eastern border. As a result, such a team with outstanding combat power but no combat experience had died after only seven days of persistence.

If Nalan Dingdong hadn't decided to bring the Black Flag Army over, I'd be afraid that the Phoenix Platform would have been lost long ago. The reason why Phoenix Platform is so famous is precisely because of its important strategic position. Once Phoenix Platform is lost, the foreigners' team can go straight in. It can be said that the risk in Dongjiang is the two places where Phoenix Platform and Shanhaiguan.

Mu Guangling was very angry about this matter. When convening the meeting, he was furious and killed the five leaders who did not listen to the generals. As a result, he caused conflicts. Before he could fight with the foreigners, his family started fighting first.

"General, Mu Guangling has sent someone to deliver the letter."

The personal soldiers quickly walked behind Nalan Dingdong and handed over a letter.

Nalan Dingdong opened the letter and looked at it, then sneered: "Before I brought the troops, I always thought Mu Guangling was a real hero. But now, his energy has gradually shifted from resisting foreigners to maintaining his position. He asked me to send troops to cut off the Luling Army's retreat, and then swallowed the Luling Army in one bite. At first, the people in the Mu Mansion stood at the front and fought against foreigners with real swords and guns, but now he was planning to preserve his strength. More and more people were rushing to support the East Xinjiang, and Mu Guangling's selfish desires became heavier."

"What should we do?"

Personal soldiers asked.

Nalan Dingdong handed the letter to his personal soldiers: "Hurry up and send it to the Luling Army and tell him that my Black Flag Army will not do anything to hurt friendly forces. The Luling Army can move closer to me. The Luling Army's food and supplies will be replenished, and my Black Flag Army will come out."

"But... our food and grass are almost insufficient."

The personal soldiers said anxiously.

"Mu Guangling thought that holding the granary would hold the lifeline of all the people, so let's take the lifeline back by ourselves."
