Chapter 2 oath to coexist with Kunming
Zhu Youlang accidentally glanced at the jade seal on the imperial desk and felt itchy.
He thought to himself that since he had come, he might as well cover this jade seal to enjoy the emperor's addiction.
After Siding, Zhu Youlang walked to the front of the imperial desk, held the jade seal tightly with both hands and went heavily to cover a piece of white paper.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, a dazzling white light emanated from around the jade seal, and Zhu Youlang instinctively closed his eyes.
It took him a long time to open his eyes again, and the scene in front of him was shocked.
He was in a showroom, and the room was filled with countless old objects, all of which were guns and firearms from the Prussian Kingdom.
He was very familiar with this place, it was clearly the private Prussian Ordnance Museum he founded!
He collected every old antique with care.
He picked up an old antique grenade and whispered in his palm.
As the museum director, he knows every thing in it!
But why did he suddenly appear here? Could it be because of that jade seal?
Zhu Youlang thought of the dazzling white light again, and he was sure that this must be the reason.
hiss!
Zhu Youlang not only gasped.
It seems that this jade seal should be a medium that allows him to enter the museum space.
In order to confirm this conjecture, Zhu Youlang once again sealed the jade seal.
At this moment, the familiar white light appeared again, and Zhu Youlang took a deep breath and closed his eyes.
Then there was a trembling feeling, and when I opened my eyes, I was already in the bedroom.
His guess is correct. This jade seal is really a medium that connects the museum and the Yongli time and space!
Zhu Youlang was ecstatic, as if he had caught a life-saving straw.
What surprised him even more was that the grenade he had touched actually appeared in the bedroom with him!
Zhu Youlang observed it carefully and took a deep breath in shock. How could this grenade become so bright? It was as if it had just been made.
Is this still an old antique he is familiar with?
Could it be...
Zhu Youlang had a bold idea in his mind.
He once read a science fiction novel, which talks about the distortion of time and space. The degree of newness and old changes of the same object through time and space.
Could it be that these old objects have become new through time and space?
If Zhu Youlang had definitely not believed this kind of thing in the past, but there has been such an inexplicable thing like time traveling through time, what else is impossible?
According to this theory, these old objects originally displayed in the museum have become guns and cannons that can be used directly!
This is simply a gift from God!
If Zhu Youlang guessed correctly, any old antiques he touched would come with him to the Yongli period after he stamped the jade seal. Wouldn't he have added guns and cannons in the warehouse if he said so?
This is simply a killer weapon!
With these guns and cannons, it is not difficult to defend Kunming!
Zhu Youlang thought it was not a solution to just run away, and now he doesn’t want to leave anymore.
Only Yunnan and Sichuan remained in the Ming Dynasty, and it had reached the point where an inch of land was bound to fight for!
No words all night.
The next morning, Zhu Youlang announced at the dynasty meeting that he decided to stay in Kunming and would not move his garrison.
An uproar was in full swing for a moment.
After a night of conspiracy, Ma Jixiang finally came up with a statement to persuade the emperor to move to western Yunnan. The emperor suddenly decided to stay in Kunming. What does this mean?
Even Li Dingguo, who had always been calm, was a little panicked.
"Please think twice. Guizhou has been destroyed now, and Kunming is not a place to stay for a long time."
Li Dingguo was a very proud person. Even he thought that Kunming could not be kept, so the difficulty was naturally conceivable.
However, Zhu Youlang said confidently: "The King of Jin may not know that I sent someone to buy a batch of Taixi firearms a year ago? I have never been willing to use these firearms, but now it is time to use them."
Li Dingguo was stunned when he heard this. His Majesty sent someone to buy a batch of Thai firearms? Why didn’t he know about this?
Of course, this kind of question Li Dingguo could not ask in the court. Wouldn't that put the majesty of the king and father in nothing?
"Since Your Majesty is ready, I swear to follow you to the death."
After thinking for a while, Li Dingguo made a deep statement.
Emperor Yongli was his object of loyalty, and his relationship with the emperor was a relationship of prosperity and loss.
Since the emperor decided to stay in Kunming, he naturally could not abandon the emperor and leave.
He even had some joy in his heart. The emperor, who had always been timid and cowardly, finally showed the courage that a king of a country should have this time.
"Your Majesty, no!"
Seeing that the emperor had lost his mind, Ma Jixiang couldn't help it. He walked out and cried and said, "Your Majesty's body of a thousand golds can't be placed in danger. Now Yunnan cannot be kept!"
Zhu Youlang's face suddenly became gloomy.
He was not the foolish emperor who was originally weak and incompetent and undistinguished from loyalty and treacherous. Ma Jixiang was a famous treacherous minister who was a slander. Poor Emperor Yongli always trusted him. He first appointed him as the commander of the Jinyiwei, and later even directly promoted him to the chief minister of the cabinet.
It seems that Ma Jixiang is doing it for Yongli's good, but in fact he is greedy for life and fears death and dare not fight.
"I have decided, does Ma Aiqing want to resist the order?"
Ma Jixiang's face was pale at once. He really couldn't understand why the cowardly mediocre leader of the past suddenly became arbitrary, and even had the legacy of the second ancestor.
"Since this is the case, my dear friends will no longer need to prepare for the relocation of Shu. I have decided to live and die with Kunming City!"
Zhu Youlang was full of enthusiasm when he said this, which made the already disheartened ministers ignite another glimmer of hope.
Perhaps, this time they can really live to death?
...
...
After resigning from the court, the commander of the Jinyiwei, Wen'an Hou Ma Jixiang, who was choked by the emperor, summoned his brother Ma Xiongfei, and his son-in-law Yang discussed countermeasures.
Ma Jixiang lamented: "I don't know what slander your Majesty believed, but he decided to stay in Kunming. This is simply a desperate situation."
Ma Xiongfei echoed: "Brother, you have fulfilled your duties as a minister. Now that the emperor wants to lead everyone to death, you can't sit still."
Ma Jixiang shook his head and said, "What can I do? You can see the meaning of King Jin. He is standing on the side of the emperor. Although I am the commander of the Jinyiwei, I have the personal army in my hands. Can I still resist the order?"
Yang Zai smiled coldly and said, "There is not only one emperor in the world. Now that Can Ming only has a corner of land, it is only a matter of overturning. Why didn't Lao Taishan make plans early?"
Ma Jixiang's expression changed when he heard this, "What do you mean?"
Since Yang said this, he simply did not stop and said: "The Emperor of the Qing Dynasty is the destiny of heaven. I heard that all ministers who surrendered to the Qing Dynasty can maintain their titles. Isn't Sun Kewang a titled king by the Qing court? If Lao Taishan surrendered, at least he could make a marquis. While Kunming City has not yet been destroyed, Lao Taishan might as well contact the general of the Qing army. When the Qing army attacked the city, Lao Taishan opened a gate to welcome the Qing army into the city. Wouldn't that be a great achievement?"
