There was only one horse standing in front of the post house.
Pei Boxi quickly led the people and greeted him out of the main entrance.
"Your Majesty Pei Boqi..."
Before he could finish speaking, the knight on the horse said coldly, "General Longhu of the Ming Dynasty, the general of the army is safe..."
Hearing this, Pei Boxi was shocked.
This name was very familiar to him.
One of the adopted sons of Emperor Gao, Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, General Su Wei, a trusted confidant of Emperor Yongchang of the Ming Dynasty.
"I have met General Ping..."
"The envoy is exempt from any courtesy!" Ping An's voice was still cold, "I have been ordered to pick you up!"
As he spoke, he suddenly grinned, showing his white teeth, "Go and see my Ming Dynasty Tiger Ben!"
~
Suburbs of Beijing, school grounds.
In the distance, you can see the flags all over the sky.
There was a chilling atmosphere between heaven and earth, as if even the scorching sun had to hide behind the clouds to avoid its sharp edge.
Pei Boxi was also a man of both civil and military talents in Annan in the past. He even took charge of the imperial army of Emperor Chen Shao, the leader of the Chen Dynasty of Annan in the previous generation.
But the moment he entered the military camp, he immediately realized that the Annan Forbidden Army under his command in the past was compared to the Ming Dynasty Tiger Ben now.
It's the difference between a three-year-old naughty boy and a seven-foot strong man.
Looking around, countless armored warriors lined up in neat lines, standing silently under the scorching sun.
Even though the scorching sun heated up their armor, none of the tens of thousands of people moved.
Boom....
There was a sudden sound of gunfire.
The horse under Pei Boqi's crotch seemed to have not been trained by the sound of cannons, and suddenly became restless and agitated.
Law, law, law.....
The war horse neighed, its feet flew into the air, and its body twisted uneasily.
Pei Boxi was about to be thrown off his horse.
But out of nowhere, a hand suddenly grabbed the war horse's mane and pushed it down.
Everything was happening in the blink of an eye, but Pei Boxi saw it very clearly.
Before his horse went crazy, it was forcefully held back by Ping An.
"This beast is not good!"
Ping An smiled coldly, "When I turn around, I will give you two good horses as a gift!"
Pei Boqi couldn't help but comfort the war horse and said, "Actually, I belong to the civil service, and the war horse is dispensable to me..."
"Even if you don't go into battle, you still need a good horse!" Ping An said again, "Otherwise, I will send you back to Jiaozhi the next day... I will walk back!"
Suddenly, Pei Boxi's heart skipped a beat again.
Yesterday, the two most important ministers of the Ming Empire unabashedly expressed their desire to annex Annan in front of him.
And now, this general of the Ming Empire deliberately referred to Annan as Jiaozhi in front of him.
Jiaozhi is a taboo word in Annan.
Because in the eyes of the Annan people, those thousands of years of being enslaved by the Central Plains dynasty were a great shame.
~~
"Ha ha!"
Hearty laughter came from the side, and Li Jinglong came in high spirits wearing a python robe.
"Your Majesty, please come to the stage with me. How about you take a look at my great Ming Dynasty tiger?"
Before Pei Boxi could speak, Zhu Gaochi, who was dressed in a dragon robe, smiled slowly like Maitreya Buddha, "Your Majesty, this kind of dignity is not much!"
~~
It was obviously to show off his martial arts, but he said it was to show off his dignity.
Pei Boxi knew it well, but he was unable to refute it because he knew that from the moment he came to the capital of the Ming Dynasty, he became a puppet.
A puppet at the mercy of the Ming Empire.
The Ming Empire did not need him to cry and complain, and it did not need him to narrate the tragic events of the Annan and Chen dynasties.
I just need him to be obedient....
Help Daming lead the way...
Help Daming calm people's hearts...
~
Pei Boxi's steps were a little frivolous, and he followed the others to the general ordering platform.
From the empty general stand, you can see everything on the school grounds clearly and have a panoramic view.
"start...."
Suddenly, Ping An gave an order.
~~
Dong Dong Dong, Dong Dong Dong.
The cadence is the war drum.
woo woo woo woo..
The long and frightening thing is the horn.
Then, the smoke and dust billowed...
"But the cavalry?" Pei Boxi asked subconsciously.
Li Jinglong stood next to Pei Boxi and said, "The elite cavalry of the Ming Dynasty are all on the nine sides. Among them, Liaodong, Gansu, and Ningxia are the leading ones. The cavalry in the Beijing camp are all Yulin..." After saying that, he paused and smiled again.
He said, "Is it a musketeer?"
Pei Boxi was stunned for a moment subconsciously, and then he saw two phalanxes of five hundred people walking in order in the smoke and dust, walking in front of him in a straight line from side to side.
Then, I heard the horn change.
"Raise the gun..."
boom!
In an instant, there was another uniform movement.
The firecrackers, shining with a dazzling luster, were held on the shoulders by the soldiers.
Annan was good at using firearms, and Annan's army was also equipped with a large number of fire blunderbuss, pellet guns, and small-mouth blunderbuss.
But Pei Boxi had never seen such a firecracker.
He looked greedily at the weapons in the hands of the Ming soldiers, which reflected an almost blue light, and the long barrel... There was also a half-meter-long Mitsubishi bayonet hanging from the muzzle.
....
"put!"
Boom boom boom!
Suddenly, smoke and dust swept across.
Standing on the general stage, my eyes were filled with smoke and faint firelight.
My ears were already buzzing, and my whole body was shaking with the sound of gunshots...
In Pei Boxi's sight, a group of soldiers finished firing their guns, stepped back, and took out the pellets and gunpowder from the leather pouch at their waist...
Another person was standing where the gun was fired, firing continuously.
Then step aside and someone else will fill the empty space.
"Continuous..."
Pei Boxi only had this word in his mind.
Because now, he was trembling all over as if his brain no longer belonged to him.
He knows military matters.
Imagine being on the battlefield with so many firecrackers holding firecrackers and shooting continuously. What would it be like?
Indestructible...
Any enemy facing such a blunderbuss will have only one end.
collapse!
"kill!"
Suddenly, there was another loud shout.
I saw those gun soldiers behind three rounds of muskets, holding the muskets in their hands like spears, charging quickly...
"Hey Hey...."
Immediately afterwards, dozens of artillery pieces were pushed out.
Boom! Boom!
There was another loud noise like the sky falling and the earth falling...
Pei Boxi could no longer think of any words to describe it, because he was already stupid.
The fire was soaring into the sky and the earth was shaking.
Several standing brick walls on the school grounds have turned into ruins...
"This is the Divine Cannon!"
Li Jinglong said loudly from the side, "I used it when we fought against Goryeo. With one shot... the gate tower of Goryeo Royal City was blown down!"
"Yes, you used it when you fought against Goryeo. Then you will also use it when fighting against Annan!"
Pei Boxi felt bitter in his heart, "With such a tiger and wolf army entering Annan, how can Annan be finished?"
In fact, to be precise, he didn't care whether the people of Annan suffered from military disasters.
What he lamented was that once these tiger and wolf warriors entered Annan, they would never leave again!
"Is this the biggest cannon of the Ming Dynasty?" Pei Boxi asked with a bitter smile.
"It?" Li Jinglong shook his head, "This one is about to be eliminated!" He said, looking at Pei Boxi seriously, "When it comes to attacking the Li bandits, the army will be equipped with the latest, the Tianwei Divine Cannon!"
"They even have the army ready!"
Pei Boxi closed his eyes in pain, and when he opened them again, he suddenly saw a few strangers on the refereeing stage.
One of them, wearing a traditional Annan service, was looking at him curiously.
"he is.........?"
Ping An suddenly came over and whispered in Pei Boxi's ear, "You don't know him? Chen Wangsun?"
"He is... fake!" Pei Boqi gritted his teeth and said, "The descendants of the royal family surnamed Chen are still in Annan! If the Ming Dynasty attacks the Li thieves, they should establish the direct descendants of the Chen Dynasty, instead of this unknown origin...
..”
This is the last persistence and fantasy in his heart.
Even if the Ming Dynasty wants to annex Annan, the Ming Dynasty must also recognize the former dominance of the Chen Dynasty royal family over Annan.
Even if he can't help the old owner restore the royal power, he still wants the descendants of the old owner to still be nobles...
"oh?"
From the side, Zhu Gaochi also came over and said with a smile, "So you know where the real princes and grandsons of the Chen Dynasty are?"
Suddenly, Pei Boxi became wary.
Because the other party’s smile is so cruel!
It is a kind of cruelty that wants to kill!
"Your Majesty, please don't say such angry words!" Li Jinglong spoke slowly again, "You and Chen Wangsun have come thousands of miles for the sake of their motherland. Your loyalty is beyond praise!"
"The Ming Dynasty will never sit back and watch the vassal country's legal system be usurped...it will definitely raise troops to attack the rebellion!"
As he said that, Li Jinglong smiled and said, "What you two have done will leave your name in history and be a legend for generations to come!"
Zhu Gaochi also smiled and said, "Now, please, your envoy, please meet Chen Wangsun, the king and his ministers!"
"You two had better hold each other's hands and cry..."
"The harder you cry, the better. I, the historian of the Ming Dynasty, am right next to you and will record in detail the meeting between your monarch and his ministers..."
"This scene of your monarch and his ministers meeting each other will also be written into the campaign against the Ananli thieves..."
