Chapter 1 Great Eunuch Wang Chongzi(1/2)
The Great Dragon Dynasty, on the east gate of the imperial capital.
General Junyue Ming looked at the soldiers with heavy casualties with solemn eyes, and a look of sadness and anger appeared on his face.
Seeing Yue Ming coming, many soldiers struggled to stand up, and many people looked puzzled.
The city they guarded has been besieged for a month.
As the imperial capital, there were no crops in the city and there was no large water source, but it had to support millions of people. Within this month, except for war horses, the rest of the livestock were killed. They barely supported for a month and could no longer hold on.
Yesterday, I heard news from the front that the thirty-six provinces and forty-six cities of the Great Dragon Dynasty surrendered to the eunuch Wang Chong.
They can't figure it out.
Really can't figure it out.
Even the blind man could see that the Great Dragon Dynasty was in a desperate situation, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was even arrested. Why is General Yue Ming still protecting this imperial capital without his master?
Is it bad to surrender? Is it bad to survive?
"Half a year ago, the old emperor passed away, and forces from all over the country raised troops to rebel. The eunuch Wang Chong took advantage of the chaos to hold the emperor to order the princes. After that, thirty-six provinces and forty-six cities surrendered to Wang Chong one after another. Now, he has no opponent except ours."
Yue Ming said word by word, holding the sword around his waist tightly in his right hand, and said in a deep voice:
"This is a shame to the empire. I, Yue Ming, will not surrender."
Many soldiers felt a tight heart and a sad look appeared on their faces.
If you don't surrender, you will continue to fight and continue to fight. Facing the current Wang Chong gang forces, which are at its peak, is no different from suicide.
However, no one of these soldiers said the word "no" because they respect Yue Ming.
"Although I won't surrender, you can."
After saying this, he turned his head and looked into the distance of the city tower.
Just across from the moat of the city tower, there were hundreds of thousands of soldiers standing, with a huge crowd of black people all the way, and even he felt envious of the uniform troops.
This is a brave and good army, an army that has never been defeated, and an army that strictly abides by discipline.
Unfortunately, this is not his army, but his enemy, Wang Chong.
"Wang Chong, although you are an eunuch, I admire you because you can train such an army. It's a pity that if you don't serve the two masters, you and I will always be enemies."
Yue Ming whispered, looking at the letter in his hand.
This letter was sent by Wang Chong. The content is very simple. Wang Jin surrendered unconditionally and he could spare all the defenders in it. Otherwise, he would attack the city early tomorrow morning. At that time, all the defenders would implicate the nine tribes and not even let go of the dogs in their homes.
"General, I will not surrender, either." The guard behind me said excitedly.
"Swear to live and die with the general." Another sergeant half-kneeled on the ground to express his loyalty.
"Swear to live and die with the general!" More people half-kneeled on the ground.
Yue Ming smiled, but he shook his head and scolded: "You must surrender, this is an order!"
"I will open the city gate and I will face the battle myself. The rest of the people put down their weapons and are not allowed to take action. If they resist the order, they will be killed!"
Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to do.
"This is my last order!" Yue Ming shouted in a deep voice.
The eight soldiers guarding the city gate did not dare to disobey and began to put down the ropes of the gate.
"Clang!"
The thick iron door fell forward and made a loud noise.
Yue Ming walked down the city gate, rode a war horse, and shouted: "The Great Dragon Confronts the city moat general Yue Ming, who dares to fight with me!"
Facing the dark army, Yue Ming was not afraid of anything.
In front of this group of disciplined troops, a huge "convex" stand was placed, with only two chairs in one large and one small.
Sitting on the big chair was a man in armor. He looked over fifties, but his eyes were not showing signs of age at all, but instead he was as sharp as an eagle.
He is the eunuch who is terrified and ruthless, and he is ruthless, who uses the prince to command the princes, Wang Chong.
However, sitting next to him was a young man wearing a dragon robe, the crown prince of the dynasty, Ang Lee.
"Your Highness, what do you think of this General Yue Ming?" Wang Chong said calmly.
Although Ang Lee was the prince, he did not dare to face Wang Chong at all when talking to Wang Chong. He lowered his head and responded: "Teacher, General Yue Ming is loyal to the dynasty. He wants to die in battle like this."
"Well, do you think this person should be kept?"
"Disciple doesn't dare to say it."
"There is nothing I dare not say. I am trying to wipe out the major generals in the world like this to pave the way for you to ascend the throne in the future."
A sharp light flashed in Wang Chong's eyes, "Although the Great Dragon Dynasty is big, it is precisely because of its greatness that some people with high mountains and far away emperors took advantage of the situation to grow bigger. This time, these forces were wiped out. Who is loyal, who is against, and who is fence-bearing, is clear at a glance, and it has trained the imperial army, killing multiple goals in one fell swoop."
Ang Lee was a little excited. He remembered that since he was very young, Wang Chong, as an eunuch in the palace, secretly controlled the palace.
Later, he became his master. Every time he secretly told him that he would help him seize the throne and start the prosperous era of the Great Dragon Dynasty. He really learned a lot by Wang Chong's side.
Therefore, in his mind, although Wang Chong was an eunuch, he truly regarded Wang Chong as a close relative.
"So, you must stay loyal ministers, and the traitors should be killed." Wang Chong looked at him: "I am fifty-seven years old now and my life is not long. Next, I will depend on you. Remember what I teach you."
"Disciple remember."
"Yes." Wang Chong stood up, walked down the steps, and turned over the horse.
"Master, what do you mean?" Ang Lee asked anxiously.
"This Yue Ming is a rare talent. This person is of great use to you. He is a person who affects the fate of the country and cannot die."
After saying that, Wang Chong rode his horse to the field.
"Eunuch Wang, I didn't expect that you would come here in person, so you wouldn't be afraid that I would kill you." Yue Ming pointed at Wang Chong's knife and shouted in a stern manner.
"Everyone in the world misreads my Wang Chong. You have read the letter I gave you, and I still think I am holding the emperor to command the princes?" Wang Chong shouted: "If I want to kill you, do you think I will come out in person? If I destroy your army, I will not just surround you and not fight."
As he said that, Wang Chong pointed at Ang Lee not far away, "See Your Highness the Crown Prince."
Yue Ming frowned and looked at the place where Wang Chong pointed. At this moment, he believed it a little.
…………
After a stick of incense, under the leadership of Yue Ming, His Highness the Crown Prince and Wang Chong entered the palace.
Seven days later, Ang Lee officially ascended the throne and gave the new country title: King Chong. It means that under the leadership of King Chong, the Great Dragon rebirth in Nirvana.
Wang Chong was granted the title of prime minister and Yue Ming was appointed as the chief marshal of the Dalong Dynasty.
Military, under the advice of Wang Chong, the managers of all provinces are no longer allowed to have their own troops, and only care about economy and public security, and conduct performance assessments every three years. Those who are not satisfied with the assessment will be replaced directly. The commander of the defending army will be directly appointed by Ang Lee.
Economically, under Wang Chong's suggestion, the manure cultivation method was promoted, and manure was poured on the land to increase crop yields, and various agricultural tools were developed to facilitate production. Merchants were built, merchant ships went to sea to trade with other countries, and coal mines, iron ore, and gold mines were successively mined to create harder iron tools to make the latest developed guns and cannons.
In terms of knowledge, under the suggestion of Wang Chong, schools such as crops, chemicals, physics, mathematics, and architecture were established, abandoning the previous imperial examination system, but adopting a three-year compulsory education, cultivating talents from multiple aspects on the basis, and carrying out a vigorous literacy campaign.
It’s not that Wang Chong didn’t want to use nine-year compulsory education. It was because the average life expectancy in ancient times was too short and the labor force was short, so it was impossible to spend nine years to learn knowledge.
Three years later.
Wang Chong is already 60 years old.
For the ancients, most of them could not survive at this age, and Wang Chong was already considered a long life.
On the edge of the hospital bed, Ang Lee knelt on the ground and shouted at the imperial doctor beside him: "Wastes are all wastes, why can't they be cured? What's the use of raising you!"
The eighteen imperial doctors were trembling and did not dare to look up.
"Don't blame them. I said it a long time ago that I can't live 60." Wang Chong said calmly.
"But Master..."
"It doesn't matter if I die. You are still young. Remember the iron law I gave you. No matter how poor you are, you cannot be poor in education. Technology is the primary productive force. To build a harmonious society and a new countryside, the people will support you only if they have enough food. Remember to be honest and honest. The prince breaks the law and commits the same crime as the common people. Do you understand?"
"Disciple, remember."
"Well, just...this is it."
Wang Chong is dead.
A day later, Ang Lee announced that he would hold a state funeral for Wang Chong and be buried in the royal cemetery forever.
