Chapter 95: Langmu Mountain retreats from the enemy
The remnant of the Yuan Dynasty, King Liang, was able to take control of Yunnan. Naturally, he was supported by the local barbarian tribes. It was not so much support as it was helpless.
Since the Mongols invaded the Central Plains and various places in the south of the Yangtze River, they have been extremely harsh on the people. When a man marries a wife, the bride's first night must be handed over to the Mongols, commonly known as the "right of the first night." There are countless such things
, the people dare to get angry but dare not speak out when they are bullied. If they make even the slightest false statement, it will be the sin of destroying the nine tribes.
Although Yunnan is a place where all ethnic groups live together and have no conflicts with the world, they cannot escape the trampling of the Mongolian cavalry. In order to protect their own safety, various ethnic groups and tribes surrendered to Yuanting one after another. Therefore, the Liang King sent Valmi to dominate here.
blessing.
The Miao man in front of Da Kui saw that Da Kui was wearing an extraordinary military uniform, but he did not dare to underestimate him. At that moment, he sat up straight on his horse and said, "I am Mao Chi from Jianhe. I heard that old boy Zhu Yuanzhang is going to give me a gift."
The King of Liang gave me a gift and I came here to take over. If you have the sense to put down your things and leave, otherwise...hehe." Mao Chi raised the two machetes in his hands as he spoke.
Dakui couldn't help being surprised when he heard this. Jianhe is a town and county in Guizhou Province. It is true that there are Miao people living there, but why are they so far away?
Jianhe County is located in the southeast of Guizhou Province and in the central part of Qiandongnan Prefecture, bordering Tianzhu and Jinping County to the east, Liping and Rongjiang County to the south, Leishan and Taijiang County to the west, and Shibing, Zhenyuan and Sansui County to the north.
Among the Jianhe Miao people, there are dozens of surnames such as Yang, Long, Wang, Li, Zhang, Jiang, Wu, Liu, Tai, Wan, Peng, Pan, Luo, Huang, and Zhou. But this Maochi is not among them.
Maochi's name is derived from the totem that the Miao people believe in, and they take totem as their surname.
The Miao people, whose surnames and living habits are close to those of the Han people, are commonly known as: Shu Miao. They are hard-working, kind, and good to others. There is another Miao people who are cruel and murderous by nature, but their surnames are also strange. They may be named after ancient clans, tribes and leaders.
The name may be derived from the totem they worship. Or they may be named after their ancestral home. This Miao people are commonly known as Shengmiao.
It seems that this Maochi has sprouted, and Da Kui can't help but feel a little nervous. It is said that the Miao people are good at poison, and the "Poison King of Miao" Fang Jiutian is a master of poison among the Miao people. Da Kui once worked with Fang Jiutian
I had suffered a big loss in my life, so I felt a sense of fear.
Mao Chi was originally a arrogant person who liked to fight fiercely. When he saw the look on Da Kui's face, he couldn't help but laughed proudly and said: "How is it? You're afraid. If you know the wise, leave quickly to save grandpa trouble." He didn't finish his sentence.
As soon as he fell, he saw Dakui charging towards him on horseback. His elbows and armpits suddenly appeared, and Mao Chi couldn't help but be shocked.
The ruthless look on Dakui's face flashed away, and he rushed in front of Mao Chi in a blink of an eye, and swiped the iron gun in his hand. Mao Chi saw that the situation was not good and quickly raised his two swords to fight. The iron and iron black dragon gun carried a fierce wind.
The two knives in Mao Chi's hands hit him. There were two loud "clang rang" sounds, but Mao Chi couldn't resist the two knives in his hands and immediately took off his hands.
Before the Miao people around Mao Chi could recover, Dakui forcibly reined in their horses, and the Hongyun people stood up. Dakui's iron gun returned and stabbed quickly, with a 'pop' sound, it pierced Mao Chi's right shoulder.
Dakui struggled with one arm and shouted: "Get off the horse." Na Maochi let out a miserable cry and was knocked off the horse by Dakui with a shot.
At this moment, the nearly a thousand Miao people around him immediately went crazy. Dakui rode his horse around Maochi in a circle. Wherever he passed, the Miao people all gave way, and no one dared to come closer.
"I am Zhang Dakui, the political envoy to the south of the Yangtze River. I have come to Yunnan with the order of the Ming Dynasty Emperor to recruit Prince Liang to surrender. If there is another minor offender, don't blame me for being ruthless with my gun." Dakui finished this sentence in a loud voice,
The spear in his hand shook and he stabbed towards Mao Chi on the ground. Everyone present was thinking that Mao Chi had given an account today. The gun shot was like lightning and brought wind, and Mao Chi felt that there was no hope of survival and he was frightened and fainted.
.Unexpectedly, the tip of Dakui's spear stopped half an inch away from Mao Chi's throat.
"I, the Ming Emperor, have spread my benevolence throughout the world and wish to live in harmony with the Miao family and other ethnic groups. You can take him away." Dakui said, riding his horse and taking a few steps back. When the Miao people saw Dakui, they did not kill Mao Chi.
He was so happy that two Miao people had already dismounted and ran over to help Mao Chi onto the war horse.
These people came as quickly as they left. More than a thousand cavalry turned their horses and ran back. Before the infantry who came with them could reach here, they saw from a distance that their own cavalry had retreated. Although
I was puzzled, but I could only follow the cavalry and turn around and run back.
When the crisis passed, Lu Bingyan already had a look of respect for Da Kui, and the eyes she looked at Da Kui were not as cold as before. Before leaving, her father had told him that if Mr. Zhang has you in his heart, he will definitely help you when you are in trouble.
Helping. This also proves that he is a brave person. Now when he was having a fierce quarrel with the Maochi, Dakui came to the rescue and killed the Maochi in one round. Isn't this what his father said about him?
Does he have himself in his heart? Isn't he a brave person?
Lu Bingyan looked at Da Kui's heroic figure and fell in love with him for a long time. Unexpectedly, Da Kui rode past her without even looking at him.
When Wang Xiyuan saw the enemy soldiers retreating away, he felt relieved. If the enemy came up all at once, how could hundreds of people on his side be able to withstand the enemy? Fortunately, Mr. Zhang, Wang Xiyuan thought in his mind.
Next, the team packed up their carriages and set off again. Wang Xiyuan went to Lu Bingyan for the second time. Lu Bingyan, who was originally going to lead the team back, actually excused herself and said: "I don't know what risks there will be ahead. Although the little girl doesn't bring many people,
But at least it can be regarded as a helping hand, and it won’t be too late to turn around after passing the Langmu Mountains.”
Wang Xiyuan was a weak man, and he knew that one more person would bring more strength, so he longed for Lu Bingyan's men to send them to Zhongqing City in Yunnan (Kunming, Yunnan).
Zhongqing City in Yunnan was the territory of the Dian tribe during the Spring and Autumn Period. In the 29th year of King Nan of Zhou Dynasty during the Warring States Period (6 BC), Zhuang Qiao, a general of the Chu State, led his troops into Yunnan. Later, he followed the customs and established the "Dian Kingdom". The origin of the Dian Kingdom
According to legend, the city was located near Jincheng in the south of today's Kunming City, which needs to be verified. In the second year of Yuanfeng (109 BC), Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty established Yizhou County, which governed Dianchi County (south of today's Kunming City), and administered 24 counties including Guchang. In the third year of Jianxing of the Shu Han Dynasty, Yizhou County was established.
(225) is Guchang County, which belongs to Jianning County. In the Western Jin Dynasty, it was renamed Jinning County, and in the Sui Dynasty, it was Kunzhou in the early Tang Dynasty. The city of Kunzhou is suspected to be in Kunyang, south of today's Zhongqing City. The Nanzhao Kingdom of the Tang Dynasty was established in 765 AD.
Tuodong City was built on the north bank of Dianchi Lake, and Tuodong Jiedu was established. During the Dali Kingdom of the Song Dynasty, it was Shanchan Mansion. Shanchan City expanded westward on the basis of Tuodong City. In the Yuan Dynasty, it was changed to Zhongqing Road, and in the 13th year of the Yuan Dynasty (1'6), Shanchan City was established.
The "Yunnan Travel to Zhongshu Province" was established in Zhongqing City. From then on, Zhongqing City became the center of the Yuan people's control of Yunnan. Zhongqing City occupied the western part of Shanchan City and expanded northward to Wuhua Mountain. Wang Xiyuan and Dakui's trip was to
Arriving at Zhongqing City, we went to meet with Liang Wang Bazaci Valmi.
"Thank you so much, Miss Lu." Wang Xiyuan cupped his hands as a gift, and Lu Bingyan smiled in return.
At the stall where Wang Xiyuan and Lu Bingyan were talking, Da Kui was busy taking off his armor and robe. The weather was too hot, and it was already painful to wear a robe, let alone more than a hundred kilograms of armor? All the soldiers were wearing short coats, so Da Kui naturally
He would not wear a robe on a hot day just to save face. Wang Xiyuan saw that it was almost noon and then ordered the team to set off again.
When the team marched to Langmu Pass, Da Kui looked at the steep mountains ahead and the dense jungle on both sides of the canyon, and felt a throbbing in his heart for no reason. He thought about the Battle of Anfeng, when the Red Turban Army suffered heavy losses in the battle of Yingzui. This Langmu Mountain
The terrain of the canyon was even more dangerous than that of the eagle's mouth. To be on the safe side, Dakui waved his hand and shouted: "Stop moving forward."
The team of carriages and horses stopped when they heard the sound. Wang Xiyuan raised his voice and asked: "Master Zhang, why did you stop?"
Dakui looked at the canyon in front of him, and then replied after a while: "I'm tired from the journey. It's noon now, so I'll bury the pot and make rice on the grassland by the forest in front. It won't be too late to leave after noon." As he said, Dakui put his feet up.
Knocking the horse's belly, he spurred the horse towards the woodland.
As a pacifier, Wang Xiyuan was only responsible for appeasement matters. After all, Da Kui had been a soldier in the army, so he naturally obeyed Da Kui's instructions regarding the march. The carriages and horses formed a large circle end to end at the mouth of the valley, and several tents were placed in the circle.
.This tent was for Wang Xiyuan and Dakui to rest. Dakui had no intention of resting and gave the tent to Sima Yan and Lu Bingyan.
"Panbu, Wu Ya, you two bring ropes, crossbows and fire starters and follow me." After Dakui gave his instructions, he then said to Wang Xiyuan: "The three of me will go to investigate. If anything happens, we should use smoke to warn you. If
If nothing happens, we will come back."
Wang Xiyuan cupped his hands as a courtesy and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Zhang."
"We are both serving the imperial court, so how can we say that we have no work to do?" After Dakui said this, he led Pan Bu and Wu Ya towards the canyon.
The so-called climbing high and looking far away, Dakui took Panbu and Wu Ya to the bottom of a dangerous peak. This mountain peak is a hundred feet high, and the mountain wall here is steep and steep. When you look at the top of the mountain where the clouds are shrouded in mist, you can see birds flying over it. If you want to go up the mountain from here, you have to have a bad rib.
Wings.
"Master Zhang, are we climbing up the mountain here? Are you kidding?" Wu Ya was already stunned and speechless at this moment.
Dakui smiled slightly and said: "Although this mountain wall is steep, it is not difficult to climb up the mountain."
Panbu stood aside but said nothing. He was born as an Orion, so he was naturally capable of climbing mountains and slopes. This was a hardship for Wu Ya. Wu Ya had been used to living in a privileged position in Gongmen for a long time. Such a dangerous cliff was not suitable for him.
It's said to be a climb, but I've never seen it before.
Dakui turned a blind eye to Wu Ya's panic, and just continued: "I will go first, and you two will follow." As Dakui said, he walked to the right, and Wu Ya looked in the direction Dakui was walking.
It turns out that there is a gentle slope dozens of feet away that leads directly to the top of the mountain.
"Oh, I really thought Mr. Zhang was going to climb the rock with bare hands. It turns out there is a way up the mountain over there." Wu Ya said and smiled at himself. Pan Bu also laughed. It turns out that his adoptive father is also very funny.
Dakui was in front, followed closely by Pan Bu and Wu Ya. The three of them climbed all the way to the top of the mountain. When they reached the top of the mountain, Dakui was extremely powerful in martial arts and was sweating all over. Pan Bu was sweating profusely and panting.
Looking at Wu Ya, he had already taken off his shirt, and his upper body was naked, as if his body had been washed by water. Wu Ya was not so much mountain climbing as mountain climbing. Fortunately, Panbu often gave him a hand, otherwise he would not have been able to climb the mountain.
There is something else to say about the top of the mountain.
"When you reach the top of the mountain, you can see all the small mountains." This is an eternal poem in "Looking at the Mountains" by Du Fu, a great writer in the Tang Dynasty.
Dakui looked at the green mountains from a high place and couldn't help feeling emotional. He praised softly: "It's so beautiful!"
Pan Bu was speechless, but Wu Ya was panting and said: "I'm so tired!"
