The huge grief instantly occupied the body and mind of the two. They even forgot to punish the dereliction of duty and inquire about the tragedy.

Snot and tears flowed, Amin and Jirgalang cried bitterly for the loss of their loved ones. And because of the killing of these three executioners, how many people have tasted such sorrow.

…………………………………

"Boom, boom, boom!" Several piles of gravel on the road suddenly exploded without warning, and a few black smoke rose up, and the gravel shot in the air.

The marching Jiannu was dizzy by the bombing. The injured Zhan Pi screamed and jumped in shock. The injured soldier screamed and screamed, and fell into chaos.

Landmines should have been invented in the Song Dynasty. During the Ming Dynasty, Qi Jiguang invented the earliest trigger mines and used flint steel wheels as fire-launched devices.

However, this kind of trigger mine is expensive and the processing technology is complicated, so it has not been used on a large scale.

This mine attack on Jiannu twisted the leads of more than a dozen sky-burning thunders together and extended. Then, a hollow bamboo pole was used to pass to the hidden ignition site, and the lurking Ming soldiers ignited and detonated according to the opportunity.

Generals who returned to the army after learning martial arts, according to their understanding of the "Infantry Practice" and began to show their skills. The tactical styles of the army in their respective positions also have different emphasis.

Zhang Pan is quite regular, digging fortifications meticulously, paying more attention to the combination of light and heavy muskets and lightning-throwing cars.

Kong Youde focused on training the battle formation, hoping that one day he could defeat Jiannu and chase them and flee in a panic.

Of course, this is related to the generals' personalities and understanding of new tactics. The different focus does not mean that a certain unit can only defend or attack, but it is just that it is better at a certain style of play.

Unlike Zhang Pan and Kong Youde, Mao Chenglu's thinking is more flexible and his ideas are more unique. When he was in martial arts, he secretly went north along the Yalu River and copied the idea of ​​Jiannu's hometown, which may roughly show his character and characteristics.

After conquering Manpu and Changcheng one after another and successfully ambushed the Jiannu reinforcements that rushed to the scene, Mao Chenglu Jianshe set up another ambush on the major transportation route and intercepted Jiannu.

Mao Wenlong agreed with Mao Chenglu's suggestion to defend Manpu and Changcheng with a small number of troops, Yang Jisheng's rear assistant, Mao Chenglu's front assistant and Kong Youde's right assistant successively set up ambushes on the order of danger, blocking them one after another, and attacking the enemy coming to support.

Just as Jiannu was bombed and fell into chaos, waves of roar suddenly erupted from the woods on both sides.

As the white smoke rose, fire continued to flash, and hundreds of muskets shot whistling lead bullets at Jiannu on the road.

At the same time, there were dense muskets roars like exploding beans, and even more deafening explosions. The Jiannu striker who was deliberately released was also hit hard now.

Hundreds of muskets on the hillside kept emitting fire, and Jiannu screamed and screamed, hurriedly avoided, or was hit and fell down.

Jiannu, who was suddenly attacked, quickly made adjustments, and the Ming army seemed to have gradually become sparse due to the slow loading of muskets.

Under the command of the officers, Jiannu suppressed and fought back with bows and arrows first. Infantrymen holding swords, shields and spears climbed up the hillside to attack the enemy who was attacking the attack.

But when Jiannu struggled to climb up the hillside and search, the Ming army had retreated, leaving only simple hidden places for squatting and smell of gunpowder remaining in the air.

Sahalian immediately ordered a team of men to go to the aid quickly to rescue hundreds of forwards who were blocked and under siege.

But the cavalry had only advanced for more than a mile, and there were another fierce and fierce musket attacks on both sides.

Jiannu kept slamming to the ground with his people and horses, screaming and neighing, one after another. The frightened war horses that were not shot and were running and bumping around, adding to the chaos of Jiannu.

"No--" Niu Luezhen Bu Yantu howled in sorrow. He saw his brother's face blooming, bloody and bloody. The warriors of Jianzhou died on the horse.

Blood flowers bloomed brilliantly in the splatter. On the official road less than a hundred meters, the bodies of people and horses were everywhere, and there were wounded moaning and wailing, and the Jiannu who rolled off the horse in panic to find a hidden secret.

Every time a musket was fired, a man or a horse fell down, causing a scream and neigh.

A blood mist exploded from the back of the captain's personal soldiers. He turned around, then knelt on the ground, right in front of Niu Lu'er's true button.

Another lead bullet hit his abdomen, looking down at the bleeding wound, the captain's expression was full of surprise and disbelief. The blood kept overflowing from his fingers, and no matter how he covered it, it would be in vain.

A personal soldier who was so close to him was hit to the ground again. He covered his neck and kept making a sound.

The lead bounced open the armor leaves on his neck, and blood kept spraying out of the wound, and the air was filled with a strong bloody smell.

The gunshots continued, and each volley was like the roar of cannons, causing casualties and a scream.

Niu Lu'er's eyes were red, and the brave and fierce Jianzhou warriors had no chance to perform, so they fell miserably in a pool of blood.

Suddenly, the war horses neighed suddenly, broke free from the reins, rushed forward and backward like crazy, kicked and hit. Another row of muskets came, and Bu Yantu was blocked by a personal soldier, but a severe pain came from his right leg, and he fell to the ground half-kneel in a mess.

The two personal soldiers rushed forward desperately and fled with Bu Yantu.

The fire of muskets became sparse again, and the figures swayed in the mountains and forests, and the Ming army moved their positions again.

There is a tactic that seems to be called blocking in sequence. Simply put, it is to set up multiple levels of positions to allow the enemy to break through.

Ming Jun did not know the tactical name, nor did Zhu Youxiao know it either.

But now it is the way of playing, constantly retreating, constantly ambushing, trying to exert the power of the geography and musket shooting, and constantly killing the enemy.

He was blocked again and rushed up the hillside and rushed into the air. Jiannu had to slow down and sent troops to search along the hillside, while the brigade was moving slowly on the official road.

When the Jiannu brigade arrived at the place where the striker was attacked, what appeared before them was a miserable and bloody scene, like a slaughterhouse.

Hundreds of Jiannu's vanguard troops were attacked by thousands of musketeers, and the entire army was wiped out.

The body was covered with pillows, and the smell of blood spreads in the air. Because of the high temperature, it rises even more intensely.

Blood was still flowing, and even the earth seemed unable to swallow this red liquid, and small blood pots were formed in many places.

The deceased had different shapes and was terrible. There were many craters mixed between the corpses, emitting wisps of white smoke.

Just a hundred meters ahead, two trenches stretched across the official road, and a chest wall trench was as insurmountable as a thick wall.

With the angry eyes of Yuetuo, Sahalian and other generals, the Ming army's flag fluttered in the wind, and their bright red eyes stinged their dog eyes.

Capital, Forbidden City.

Li Chengcheng walked on the road in the palace, holding a report in his hand, heading towards the Ganqing Palace.

She was not very clear about the reason for the sudden summons of the emperor, and thought she wanted to ask about the business conditions of the shop.

Although the emperor should have remembered his name in the shop, she did not dare to have any other extravagant expectations. Of course, if the emperor valued it, it would be very pleasant to be a female official.

Under the shade of the tree in front of me, there was a little girl wearing new clothes. She was not dressed as a palace maid, but she was not as luxurious as a princess.

Li Chengcheng walked closer to watch and found that the little girl was constantly wiping her tears.

Seeing someone coming, the little girl cast a look of hope, and sobbed with her little mouth: "I can't find the way back."

Li Chengcheng squatted down and asked curiously and puzzledly: "Which palace did you come out of and where are you going?"

Zhang Wan'er twitched her little nose, but forgot the name Changchungong. She blinked her big eyes and slapped her long eyelashes. She finally remembered her sister's name and said with a whisper: "My sister's name is Zhang Yu'er, and I came out of where she lives."

Zhang Yu'er, it's the woman who is with the emperor. She should be serving in the Ganqing Palace, but why did she bring the girl into the palace?

Li Chengcheng was a little puzzled. She didn't know that Zhang Yu'er had been named Yu Concubine.

"Do you know my sister?" Zhang Wan'er asked expectantly.

Li Chengcheng nodded, and when he saw the little girl's cute appearance, he really liked it, so he smiled and said, "Then I'll take you to the Qing Palace, your sister should be there."

Well, um, Zhang Wan'er lit her little head hard, stood up and took Li Chengcheng's hand obediently.

Li Chengcheng led Zhang Wan'er and walked towards the Ganqing Palace while chatting.

In the Ganqing Palace, the young emperor had just ordered Liu Ruoyu to draw an imperial edict and sent someone to the cabinet.

I had been holding this imperial edict for a long time. It was not until Li Dan and other maritime merchants went to Nanyang to buy grain and transport it to Liaoning that Zhu Youxiao felt that it could be issued.

Yes, this is exactly the abstention and exemption orders that many gentry and landlords have expected. But even though they have paid the arrears, they still do not include them, which is really a slap in the face.

The first to be exempted were Shaanxi, Shanxi and Henan provinces. households who paid taxes of less than 5 taels of silver will be exempted this year;

The areas that were exempted from half of the taxes include Northern Zhili, Shandong, Sichuan and Guizhou, and the areas affected by the Wenxiang Rebellion and the She'an Rebellion were exempted from all;

No matter which region is exempted, five taels of silver are used as a benchmark, and the landlords and gentry are also excluded.

In cooperation with this governance are the divine decree and the sacred edicts in the Ming Forum.

"Since the rise of the army, the gentry and gentry in the world, inherited the seal officials and famous Confucian officials and scholars, all have different advantages and disadvantages. These people are all wealthy families and have entered the capital. What contributions can they be made to the court and rebel against the sacrificial government of Mongolia?"

"Now, we will discuss the Ministry of Education, Administration, Prefecture, Prefecture, Prefecture, and County. We will exempt the two departments from the previous department of taxes and grains and silvers. This is to eliminate the grace and support the army to promote it, which seems to be not serious."

What does it mean? It is to tell those officials, gentry, Confucian scholars that the country is in trouble, and you bastards are very wealthy, but not only do not pay money and work hard, but also take advantage of the best and exemption with peace of mind. Isn’t you shameless?
