Chapter 775 The return of the soul
From the moment he broke into the enemy's left flank, Prince Yu entered an inexplicable state.
At first he was panic-stricken, looking at the dense enemy cavalry in front of him, thinking that he would be overwhelmed by the crowd in the next moment.
Ma Fang shouted loudly that the fight was fierce, and this idiot actually rushed to where there were more people.
Prince Yu followed him, holding a long sword, his eyes wide open, ready to attack at any time.
But he was surrounded by guards, who protected him at all costs and refused to let him out even when he was surrounded.
The guards were fighting a bloody battle.
Just when Prince Yu couldn't help but want to rush out, cheers came from the front.
That guy Ma Fang, he actually killed his way out.
There was suddenly a void ahead and the pressure dropped drastically.
Although Prince Yu had not personally killed anyone, his entire body felt weak as if he had just gone through a great battle.
He wanted to take a break, drink some water and calm himself down.
Ma Fang turned his horse around and said, "Go back and kill them!"
What?
Prince Yu widened his eyes and was about to ask when Ma Fang had already rushed forward.
Got it!
Prince Yu had no choice but to quickly put away his water bag and follow closely.
Not far away, an enemy soldier was not killed even though his left arm was cut off by Ma Fang. He rode his horse to the front of Prince Yu and raised his long sword.
Prince Yu subconsciously swung his sword and killed.
The enemy's long swords also fell at the same time.
But it's crooked!
Prince Yu slashed his opponent's waist with his sword, and after pulling out his sword, his opponent fell off his horse with a howl.
"Victory!" The guards cheered and looked at the prince with awe as he personally charged into the battle line and killed the enemy.
Charging in a field battle is completely different from fighting to defend a city. In a field battle you need to be more alert, otherwise you will either be shot by stray arrows or killed by enemy forces that attack from all sides.
This was the realization that Prince Yu had just come to.
Ma Fang in front thought of his teacher's instructions during the fight.
——Don’t protect him like a treasure, create opportunities for him to kill the enemy!
In the study room of the Bo Mansion, Jiang Qingzhi was teaching knowledge about the human body.
——A person’s ability to balance is controlled by a small thing in the brain. If there is a problem with this thing, the person will be unable to stand steadily, and when he wants to pick up something, his hand will be far away... For example, if you lose your left hand, you will not be able to adapt in a short period of time, and this situation will occur.
Sure enough, the enemy soldier who lost his left hand swung his sword a lot off target.
Ma Fang raised his lips slightly, raised his knife and shouted, "Kill the enemy!"
"Kill the enemy!"
Prince Yu shouted loudly, and with his confidence increased, he actually rushed out of the protection circle of the guards.
"Guard His Highness!"
The dragon flag followed the happy Prince Yu forward.
In front, Zhu Shitai and his small flag unit were chasing an enemy general.
The enemy general's horse was exhausted, and he whipped the horse desperately and kept looking back.
"It's a thousand households!" Wang Kaoshan said excitedly: "Catch him alive!"
Prince Yu also saw the enemy general and galloped towards him on his horse.
Dozens of guards followed him. Seeing this, the enemy general turned around in despair, shouted loudly, and actually rushed towards Zhu Shitai and others.
fire?
Zhu Shitai shook his head. "Shoot the horse!"
Yang Sheng raised his gun and easily shot the warhorse to death with one shot.
The enemy general fell off his horse and rolled over a few times, landing in front of Yang Sheng.
Without any hesitation, Yang Sheng followed the drill and stepped forward, holding the flintlock with both hands, and roared: "Kill!"
The bayonet pierced the enemy's shoulder and then pulled out. Yang Sheng turned the musket around and hit the enemy's chin hard with the wooden butt.
After being hit like this, the enemy general rolled his eyes and fainted.
Yang Sheng put away his gun.
Everyone in the small flag unit was staring at him blankly.
"Damn you!" Wang Kaoshan said in disbelief, "This achievement...why didn't this enemy general roll over to me? Is there a god helping you?"
"Yes." Yang Sheng looked up at the sky, "Dad, is that you?"
Above the sky, a cloud was blown by the wind and drifted gently to the south.
"Wan Sheng!"
Zhu Shitai raised his arms and shouted.
His men captured a thousand households alive!
When the news reaches the capital, the powerful and noble relatives will be stunned and then become envious.
The Zhu family has produced a talented general!
Prince Yu, who had reined in his horse not far away, nodded slightly to Zhu Shitai, "Do you want to chase the enemy together?"
Zhu Shitai looked down at his shoes that were soaked and stained red by blood, then looked up and smiled bitterly.
Prince Yu raised his eyebrows, "Then I won't wait for you."
"Be careful!" Zhu Shitai shouted.
"I am just about to kill one man." Prince Yu said calmly. Zhu Shitai, who was familiar with him, knew that this guy was showing off.
"Let's go." Prince Yu rode away.
Up ahead, Jiang Qingzhi had stopped chasing.
He looked around the battlefield, feeling an inexplicable sense of pride welling up in his heart.
I changed the fate of the Ming Dynasty!
Since coming into this world, Jiang Qingzhi has been worried about what this butterfly will bring to the Ming Dynasty.
He was even more worried that he would not be able to change anything and that his children and grandchildren would still become slaves of foreign races.
He didn't want his children and grandchildren to live with a pig's tail behind their heads and live in numbness.
I don’t want my children and grandchildren to die at the hands of foreigners.
So he kept putting it off and refused to get married.
After getting married, there was no news about Li Tian's pregnancy. Jiang Qingzhi felt a little regretful, but mostly he didn't care.
If the fate of the Ming Dynasty cannot be changed, then what is the point of having children?
Let him come to this world to suffer?
In the 29th year of Jiajing, Altan Khan went south. This was a test opportunity that Jiang Qingzhi had been waiting for for a long time. To defeat Altan Khan, the bottom line was to block Altan Khan's southward march.
The Ming Dynasty’s national fortune will stop declining!
If he can defeat Altan Khan, it will prove that he, the butterfly, can change everything.
"Cousin!"
Prince Yu is here.
Jiang Qingzhi didn't turn around and asked, "Third Brother, if Altan Khan's army succeeds in marching south, what will happen to the world?"
Prince Yu reined in his warhorse and said, "The capital is shaken, and the whole country is loyal to the king."
“I’m asking about people’s hearts!”
"People's hearts?"
“Look at the impact of something, not its appearance.”
"People's hearts... Father will be depressed."
"Ok!"
"The ministers will feel that it is lucky for the Ming Dynasty to be alive, and they will no longer have the ambition to make progress."
"Ok!"
"Officers and soldiers will become numb and indifferent, and military service will become a daunting task."
"Ok!"
"The people will think... that they can live one day at a time. As for the future of the Ming Dynasty, they will not think about it."
"I have said that the people have signed an invisible contract with the emperor and the officials of the world. They work hard in the fields, work hard, pay taxes to support the emperor, generals, and officials of the world. And what should these people give them in return?"
"Safety."
"Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, Yesen has invaded the capital once. If Altan invades the capital again, in the eyes of the people, I might as well raise a dog to support these people. At least the dog can protect its owner when thieves come to the door."
Jiang Qingzhi looked back at Prince Yu and said, "The meat eaters may think that breaking the contract is not a big deal, but what they don't know is that when people in the world regard them as the ones who broke the contract, people's hearts will be scattered.
When the Ming Dynasty was in danger, they chose to stand aside and watch. Remember the former Song Dynasty? Those people in the north even took the initiative to surrender to the Liao Kingdom. Third brother, remember this. "
Jiang Qingzhi said seriously: "In this world, the people are the ones who have the lowest demands on the emperor. Remember, no matter what, you cannot break the agreement."
Prince Yu nodded seriously. "I remember it."
Jiang Qingzhi patted his shoulder, took out a cigarette, and said with a smile: "Han'er is the smartest person in the world. As long as meat eaters can treat them well, believe me, the power they burst out can change the world!"
In later generations, the Central Plains lagged behind the world for many years and was criticized by the outside world.
But after the Central Plains began to reform, it took only a few decades to complete the development process that took other countries hundreds or even thousands of years.
When the Central Plains once again stood tall in the world, the speed was so fast that the outside world was unable to adapt.
The Central Plains people’s response to this is: You should adapt, and you will become more and more adaptable in the future.
This nation has never lacked courage and wisdom. As long as they don't go in the wrong direction, they will move faster and faster.
What alien race?
What condescending contempt!
When this nation is making an effort from top to bottom, nothing can stop their rise!
This is the future!
It will certainly be like this at this moment!
"Cousin!"
Jiang Qingzhi turned around and Prince Yu handed him the fire starter.
Jiang Qingzhi lowered his head and took a few puffs, then looked up at Prince Yu, exhaled the smoke gently, and said, "Follow me for a walk."
The two men rode their horses slowly.
Prince Yu saw Zhu Shitai and his subordinates, "Uncle, Zhu Shitai!"
Jiang Qingzhi saw it and frowned, "Why don't you chase after them?"
"My lord is here." When the fearless Wang Kaoshan saw Jiang Qingzhi, he put away his arrogance and bowed respectfully.
"Hello, uncle!"
Zhu Shitai glanced at Prince Yu. Prince Yu, wearing armor, looked like a soldier.
"I have met His Highness!"
Everyone then recognized Prince Yu and bowed to him.
"Why not give chase?" Jiang Qingzhi asked.
He didn't think Zhu Shitai was cowardly, except... Jiang Qingzhi saw the enemy general lying on the ground.
Are you satisfied with capturing the enemy general?
Jiang Qingzhi felt that this kid needed some training.
Zhu Shitai pointed to the left and said, "A brother is summoning spirits. I am worried about him... so I stopped."
"spiritualism?"
Jiang Qingzhi and Prince Yu were stunned, wondering who would summon spirits on a battlefield?
The two men dismounted and walked over, only to see a young soldier kneeling there holding a small tablet and kowtowing towards the north.
"Dad, my son Yang Sheng is here."
Yang Sheng?
Jiang Qingzhi vaguely remembered this name.
"After learning that you had died for your country, I started to study martial arts. This time I followed the army to fight..."
"Before you left, my grandmother asked me to come to the grassland to pick you up. I think you would like to see your son come to greet you with his military achievements."
"In this battle, I killed three people with swords and captured a thousand-household officer of the enemy army."
Yang Sheng said, "Dad, is that enough?"
The wind howled across the battlefield.
"Dad, is that enough?" Yang Sheng cried out while sobbing.
"Grandma said that your soul is wandering on the grassland, all alone. Fallen leaves return to their roots, and if they can't find your body, they will take your soul back."
"Dad!" Yang Sheng kowtowed, opened his hands, raised his head, and shouted towards the north:
"The soul is back!"
"In the name of the Ming Dynasty." Jiang Qingzhi looked to the north and said softly, "Let the Central Kingdom that once frightened the foreign races and made them bow their heads. Let the nation that once chased the enemy and chased the north and never bowed its head..."
"The soul is back!"
