When people face results, they always have random thoughts.
He has tried his best to control his thoughts, but he still can't help but think about it.
If the coffin in the mausoleum really contained the bones of his great grandson, then he no longer knew how to face it.
From the palace to Xiaoling, you can go directly through the back door of the palace and you can arrive there in about an hour.
To Zhu Yuanzhang, this short hour was as long as a hundred years.
When the carriage stopped, Zhu Yuanzhang sighed softly and got off the carriage.
Next to it were hundreds of imperial guards. The entire road from the entrance of the Xiaoling Mausoleum to the tomb of King Yu was under martial law.
When Zhu Yuanzhang was preparing to set off, someone had already informed him to hurry up, and the Xiaoling Guards were also ready.
The careful Xiaoling Guards had even built a simple staircase on the edge of the ten-meter-deep pit.
Zhu Yuanzhang walked down, looked at the tiles above the mausoleum, and walked to the side of the cave entrance.
All the Xiaoling guards bowed their heads, knelt on one knee, and shouted long live the mountain.
After Zhu Yuanzhang finished speaking, he stood up.
"But someone went down to investigate."
After looking at the entrance of the cave, which was still dark under the sun, Zhu Yuanzhang asked Qianhu, the Xiaoling Guard next to him.
Your Majesty is here. The hundreds of households who were guarding the night before are obviously not qualified.
"Reporting to your majesty, except for a few detailed operations yesterday, no one has left yet." Xiaoling Guard Qianhu replied respectfully.
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and ordered: "Now arrange for someone to go down and investigate."
"According to the decree."
Upon hearing this, Xiaoling Guard Qianhu immediately started arranging personnel preparations.
Liu Rixin was hesitant to speak at the side. He wanted to talk about Yang Qi, but when he saw His Majesty's anxious and expectant eyes, he stopped immediately.
After hesitating for a while, he persuaded me again: "Your Majesty, the Sanhetu here was damaged yesterday and may collapse. Please move on."
Zhu Yuanzhang frowned slightly, looked at the ground, and said, "Let's wait here."
Hearing this, Liu He and Jiang who were following him immediately became anxious.
"Your Majesty, this place is extremely dangerous. Please move to the top. The old slave will help your Majesty guard it." Liu He said anxiously.
There are already slight cracks on the ground where Zhu Yuanzhang is standing, and the bottom is bottomless. If this collapses, the consequences will be disastrous.
The surrounding officials such as Xiaolingwei, Liu Rixin, and Qintianjian all tried to persuade him.
"Your Majesty is the sky of the Ming Dynasty. If anything goes wrong, the sky will collapse. Please consider the people of the world and move up to watch."
Jiang knelt down on one knee and persuaded.
Zhu Yuanzhang hesitated for a moment, did not insist, and walked up.
What he was thinking about at this moment was what would happen to his eldest grandson who was living in the wild if something went wrong with him.
Zhu Yuanzhang watched from the edge of the nearest pit.
Several elite soldiers from Xiaoling Guard tied ropes, carried torches, and began to descend into the cave.
Needless to say, the physical fitness of the soldiers who were able to go down was among the best in the army.
After half an hour, when Zhu Yuanzhang was looking forward to seeing what was going on, the Xiaoling guards who had gone down finally came up.
…
Zhu Yuanzhang summoned him directly and asked about the situation below.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, the mausoleum below collapsed, a large hole was opened in the middle, and the main tomb chamber fell down."
"When we continue to look down, we will see a large crack tens of meters deep, and at the bottom is an underground river."
Xiaoling Wei reported.
When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he immediately understood.
The mausoleum of my eldest grandson may have collapsed directly.
After pondering in his mind, Zhu Yuanzhang shouted: "Immediately mobilize twenty general cannons and blast open the mausoleum."
"I obey the decree."
Upon hearing this, Xiaoling Guard Qianhu immediately arranged for personnel to start mobilizing artillery.
This general cannon is the most powerful cannon among the Ming Dynasty cannons today.
Twenty artillery pieces bombarded the mausoleum, which could directly blast all the three-piece soil above the mausoleum into pieces.
The current regular army of the Ming Dynasty has ten artillerymen and thirty fire commanders among one hundred people.
The firearms equipment rate reached 40%.
Xiaoling is a royal mausoleum, and the proportion of firearms owned by the army is as high as over 60%.
That's why I didn't use gunpowder to explode it earlier.
First of all, it is due to the power of gunpowder that it cannot directly explode the mountain and can easily cause collapse. The current powdered gunpowder is not too powerful in actual power.
Secondly, as a royal mausoleum, large amounts of gunpowder are used, which can easily affect the Feng Shui of Xiaoling Mausoleum.
At present, the roof of the mausoleum, which only has a layer of clay, can be blown open most quickly with gunpowder.
Moreover, the underground situation is rarely clear now, so that it will not cause a secondary collapse.
Soon twenty artillery pieces were mobilized.
After Xiaoling Wei Qianhu gave the order.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!...
Suddenly, the entire pit was filled with smoke, and a shocking sound filled the sky. It was the first time that Liu Rixin, as well as the Qin Tian Jian and other officials were seeing such power.
My legs and feet were so frightened that I almost sat down on the ground.
Zhu Yuanzhang's face remains unchanged
