Chapter 153 Breaking the backbone of Jianghu?(1/2)
The cold wind is biting.
It’s already winter again.
This winter is relatively wet and cold.
There is no heavy snow, but there is constant cold rain. This kind of humidity and cold is not much better than the snow-capped mountains.
Because it is wet and cold, wine becomes a good thing. Whether it is a luxury restaurant or a outdoor restaurant, wine has become an important magic weapon to warm up the body.
In this weather, even some Jianghu people who often imitate Lin Pingzhi in drinking tea can't help but have a glass of wine and eat some meat.
"Da da da…"
The roar of horse hooves is like thunder, coming down from the north.
Travel through mountains and rivers all the way.
This is a team of armored cavalry.
Longwei.
The Dragon Guards are the personal guards of the Emperor. They are elites trained by His Majesty himself after the great changes in the world. They are important weapons for the country and are cultivated with the help of the country.
It is also the basis for His Majesty to dominate the world.
Emperor Ming now had this army, which greatly increased his sense of security.
The Dragon Guards are all highly skilled and well-trained, with horses that can travel thousands of miles a day, the best weapons, the hardest armor, and the best resources and treatment, making them the most powerful army in the history of the Ming Dynasty.
With the Dragon Guard, the emperor believed that even if the martial planes were fused together, he could trample all the worlds, destroy the myths of the martial arts, and crush the backbone of the rivers and lakes... What legends of the martial arts, what powerful men from all realms, in front of the Dragon Guard
, all of them will become the tragic protagonist who returns wrapped in horse leather.
The Dragon Guard is divided into three parts: gold armor, silver armor, and iron armor.
There are not many people in gold armor, but they are the strongest, followed by silver armor, and iron armor is the weakest.
The Golden Armored Guards are the emperor's Forbidden City guards. They usually do not leave the Forbidden City. The ones who can achieve unparalleled reputation outside are almost all Silver Armored Guards. They are already elites and are not easily dispatched in ordinary times. The Iron Armored Guards have the largest number, about twenty.
Ten thousand, but it does not mean that they are weak. Their average strength is probably that of the Four Shows of Qingcheng in the original work of Xiao Ao. Regardless of their strength and cultivation, they do not seem to be very strong, but the most important thing for an army to fight is not to rely on one-on-one combat.
It's a team fight.
If there are one hundred people in the same group, the Iron Armored Guards may not be able to win in a one-on-one duel. But if a hundred martial arts men who are one level higher than the Iron Armored Guards fight in a team fight with the Iron Armored Guards, the Iron Armored Guards will definitely win. This is the power of the army.
Even if the opponent is two levels higher than them, they can still fight to a tie.
Today, in the cold wind, 10,000 armored guards marched northward, trying to cross the chess player organization and destroy the Fuwei Escort Agency.
Ten thousand armored guards is the most effective way to send troops. Any more will involve the supply of food and grass. Only ten thousand are sent. They are lightly armed and simple, and they can move quickly. They will arrive in Fuzhou soon and can launch a blitzkrieg. There is no response from the Fuwei Escort Bureau.
When they come over, attack them.
In the eyes of the emperor, no matter how famous Fuwei Escort Agency is in the world, it is just a mob that can be destroyed with a snap of a finger. What the chess players did... is really superfluous. If it threatens the imperial power, it will be broken, and it will engage in so many conspiracies.
what?
He had the right idea.
But the key depends on whether it can be broken through easily.
"Swish..."
Along the way, there was the sound of the hoofbeats of the armored guards, and the collision of fine metal pieces caused by the friction of the armor, but no one spoke. It was like an iron horse coming out of hell, and a chilling atmosphere filled the air.
With such an army of 200,000 elite troops, it is no wonder that Emperor Ming felt safer than ever before.
Like the army of death, they were in black armor and iron clothes, constantly approaching Fuzhou City.
Emperor Ming had no patience with the chess player organization, or in other words... he was a little dissatisfied with the existence of the chess player organization.
It seems that there was some estrangement between the two sides after the appearance of Long Wei.
In the past, the chess-playing organization was the emperor's main force in maintaining stability in the world, and it had great power. It only listened to the emperor's orders. Later, after the Dragon Guard was established, Emperor Ming believed that the behavior of the chess-playing organization was out of date, or
Said...The emperor doesn't want to rely on the strength of the chess player anymore.
In Kyoto.
Different from the wet and cold winter in the south of the Yangtze River, in the winter in the capital, the mountains are covered with snow.
As far as the eye can see, the mountains are white, and so is Kyoto.
Between heaven and earth, there is a vast expanse of light.
Even the splendid Forbidden City was dyed with white snow. White... replaced the brilliant red bricks and green tiles.
The Hall of Nourishing Heart.
There is a gold basin with charcoal fire.
The emperor holds a scroll in his hand, wears a cotton-padded jacket, has a cotton blanket covering his knees and thighs, has a charcoal fire and gold basin at his feet, and is served by eunuchs and maidens on his left and right.
"Your Majesty, are you making too much of a fuss by mobilizing the troops and mobilizing the Dragon Guard to go to the south of the Yangtze River? Small gangster forces such as the Fuwei Escort Bureau will never become a problem. The chess players can organize it to solve it. In fact, it is not necessary for Your Majesty to personally intervene."
The Minister of War asked.
Emperor Ming glanced at it and said calmly: "I just want to make a fuss out of a molehill."
Why.
The officials were puzzled.
"The chess player organization... is no longer a complete product of the imperial power. They are not as loyal and devoted to the imperial court as before. Today's chess player organization is actually... an existence that likes to play tricks and scheming." Emperor Ming paused:
"The reason why I dispatched the Dragon Guard this time is not only to destroy the Fuwei Escort Agency. The small Fuwei Escort Agency is nothing more than a mosquito, so it deserves to die under the iron hooves of the Dragon Guard?"
"I not only want to destroy the Fuwei Escort Bureau, but also want to intimidate the chess players organization and let them know that even without them, my iron hoof is still invincible in the world!"
"Not only can I destroy the Fuwei Escort Bureau at any time, but I can also destroy the chess player organization immediately if I want to?" In Emperor Ming's eyes, the shadow of the Ancestral Dragon flashed.
"But that man named Ye..." Some ministers were worried.
"After all...it's...he came from that place. Wouldn't it be a good idea to anger him?"
"Huh!" The emperor snorted coldly, his dragon eyes moving with majesty.
"Things are not what they used to be. Now that I have Dragon Guard and other important weapons to control the country, why should I be afraid of him?"
"Iron-armored guards can crush the backbone of Jianghu. What's more, I have not only iron-armored guards...but also silver-armored guards, golden-armored guards...hidden guards!"
"He'd better be honest, otherwise... he'll be destroyed too!"
There was a majestic murderous aura in Emperor Ming's dragon eyes.
When an ordinary man is angry, blood will be splashed five steps away. When the emperor is angry... millions of corpses will be laid down!
The emperor's wrath...is more terrifying than that of ordinary people.
"I want everyone to know that this world is Nanming's, it is our Zhu family's world, not that place's world!"
"What your Majesty said is absolutely true!" The ministers remained silent and could only agree.
…
The cold wind is biting in winter.
The Iron Guards have forced their way into Fuzhou.
Ten thousand armored soldiers came crushing down. What a shocking scene it was?
Soon, the news spread in the world.
Seeing the murderous aura of this god-descended soldier, even the powerful Jianghu people felt frightened.
It's like a lion meeting a pack of wild wolves.
Even if a lion is powerful in combat alone, he does not dare to block its edge.
Ten thousand armored guards were like a torrent of steel, advancing across the city of Fuzhou.
Fuwei Escort Agency quickly received the news.
At this moment, the important figures of Fuwei Escort Agency gathered together.
Their expressions were very solemn.
Lin Zhennan, Mrs. Lin...all had pale faces.
"This army is obviously targeting us."
"What should I do?"
"In the past, everything was just a matter of politics and politics. The government never got involved, and we were on good terms with the court. Now... why does the court want to break the rules and send troops against our Fuwei Escort Agency?" Lin Zhennan had a headache.
He had thought about fighting for hegemony among the Jianghu people, but he had not thought about rebelling and going against the imperial court.
Anyone who has read a few books has more or less accepted the Confucian idea of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism. No one will rebel as a last resort...
Chinese people just have this kind of happy-go-lucky mentality.
Lin Zhennan is a typical such person.
"Isn't that because we threaten the imperial rule? Or... our power threatens the imperial rule. Even if we don't have the mentality to rebel, the emperor will not allow it. How can we allow others to snore next to the bed?" Lin Pingzhi said.
To be continued...
