No one expected that the war came so quickly that it was like an autumn wildfire sweeping across southern Xinjiang.
As soon as they entered the border, they broke through several Ming border armies and defeated the eighth, 19th and 36th roadside armies.
The Nuzhen people are unparalleled in the world. The world says that Nuzhen is no more than ten thousand, and over ten thousand is invincible. Moreover, there was no sign of the Nuzhen's invasion to the south this time. The spies and spies of all ethnic groups on the border in the Ming Dynasty knew nothing about it.
It was not until Nuzhen stepped on several cities that the southern frontier army realized that this was not a small-scale border friction, but the invasion of Nuzhen army.
But by this time, the southern frontier army had been divided into three parts, with Songzhou and Tanzhou as the boundary, cutting off the contact between each other, and the whole situation was completely passive.
The invasion of the Nuzhen tribe shocked the government and the public. The Ming Court immediately sent out a pass to the Nuzhen tribe, asking why it violated the territory of the Ming Dynasty.
Although it is known that it is only a form of diplomacy, this time, the Nuzhen people have given a very wordless answer.
According to the envoys of the Nuzhen nationality, a national division and two generals of the Nuzhen nationality were brutally killed in the territory of the Ming Dynasty. This time, they invaded the south to avenge them.
As soon as the news came out, the government and the public were in an uproar.
The Chinese ministers of the dynasty accused the Nuzhen barbarians of being unreasonable. Their generals and national division ran to the territory of the Ming Dynasty for no reason. They deserved to die.
According to the secret intelligence report of the Ming army and the secret report of the royal guards, the Nuzhen clan secretly conspired against LAN Mingyu, the governor of Wuzhou, but was accidentally smashed by Shen Jian, the governor of the royal guards. The brave young royal guards, alone, killed LAN Mingyu first in Wuzhou City, and then stabilized the situation in Wuzhou.
Just after hearing this news, no one believed that the royal guards were the yellow flowers of the past. When did a young hero emerge and have the courage and insight to do such a big thing?
However, after the secret reports of the royal guards came one by one, and even Li Chengliang, the official of the current Dynasty, commented on it in person, the courtiers were convinced and curious about the young royal guards.
At the moment, Shen Jianxin and Zhang Yan are walking side by side on the road to Wuzhou.
Looking around, this road is full of refugees, a large area of black, one after another, with children and girls, and everyone's face is in panic.
"Brother, where are you going? Why are so many people on their way? " Seeing that the situation was not right, Shen Jianxin grabbed a big man who was in a hurry and asked.
The man looked at Shen Jianxin in amazement, shook his head and said, "run! Nuzhen barbarian is coming! Several cities have been conquered! "
"Nuzhen people?" Shen Jianxin was shocked and stunned. The man quickly ran away and disappeared into the crowd.
Zhang Yan frowned and said, "what is the Nanjiang camp doing? Is there no defense? This is the boundary of Wuzhou. How can the Nuzhen people attack here? "
You should know that Wuzhou is already a pivotal town connecting the north and the south in southern Xinjiang. If Wuzhou is also conquered by the Nuzhen people, it is equivalent to giving up the initiative of the Daming gate.
Although Daming's national strength has declined in recent years, no one expected that it would decline to such a degree that even the Nuzhen people, who only have hundreds of thousands of people, dare to enter the country openly.
Zhang Yan doesn't understand what's at stake, but Shen Jianxin knows it very well. As Li Dingguo said, the Daming mansion is about to collapse and the dike is destroyed in the ant nest. The weakness inside is far deeper than the appearance.
LAN Mingyu, the governor of Wuzhou, was subdued by the Nuzhen people, which is a very obvious example.
According to reason, it is almost impossible for a grand Ming Dynasty governor or a feudal official to be sold by a foreign nation because he holds great power. However, if he knows that he will die if he does not surrender, it is hard to say what integrity he has in the face of the threat of death.
The Nuzhen people are powerful and have unparalleled riding strength. LAN Mingyu was sold because she was in southern Xinjiang and knew each other's strength. A big man like Zhang Yan, who had lived in the imperial court for a long time, would never want to get it.
"Let's go back to Wuzhou before we make plans!" Shen Jianxin frowned.
"Good! Wuzhou City has high walls and thick walls. There are soldiers and horses guarding the city. It should be no problem. " Zhang Yan nodded.
As a result, the two people with the flow of refugees, difficult to Wuzhou direction flow.
Fortunately, they had no belongings. They walked at a slow speed. They kept going through the crowd and finally arrived outside Wuzhou at dusk.
Wuzhou city gate, crowded with many people, all clamoring to enter the city.
Wuzhou garrison will block the flow of people outside the city gate, leaving only a small door for only one person to enter and exit, check the identity of the people who come and go, and verify that they can be put in.
In such a process, the speed of entering the city can be imagined.
Shen Jianxin takes Zhang Yan to the front of the city gate and shows the waist tag of the royal guards, which is directly put into the city.
As soon as they entered the city, they felt a sense of killing in the city.
There are many armored and knife wielding taxis shuttling back and forth everywhere. The streets become particularly cold and quiet. Ordinary people have long been hiding in their homes, and shops have been closed for nine times. Business is in a slump.
Shen Jianxin and Zhang Yan go all the way to chengshoufu.
When they arrived at the door, they were stopped by the guards.
"Who?" One of the guards snapped.
Shen Jianxin showed the waist tag of the royal guards and said in a high voice: "who is in charge of Wuzhou City now? Take me to him
When the guards saw the waist tag, they could not help but look at each other.
At this time, a figure rushed out of the gatehouse of Chengshou mansion. Seeing Shen Jianxin, he cried out: "Lord Shen! You're back! "
Shen Jianxin fixed his eyes. It turned out that it was Qu Yang, the grandson of the old couple of royal guards. He didn't know when he was wearing a bodyguard suit, but he still hung up his son and looked like a monkey.
Strange to say, the guards gathered one after another as if they had the backbone when they saw Qu Yang.
Qu Yang exclaimed with a triumphant face: "this is Lord Fu Shen of the royal guards! Yuqianhu is his man! Let me tell you, Lord Shen is very powerful. He killed LAN Mingyu himself, and so did the general Nuzhen! "
Qu Yang's voice made the guards kneel down one after another, claiming that the adults would forgive them!
Zhang Yan said with a smile: "little brother, I didn't expect you to have such a face in Wuzhou City? You are not simple! "
Shen Jianxin laughs. He has no time to listen to Qu Yang's nonsense. He waves his hand and says, "where are your grandparents? Where is yucaiwei? Take me to see them
Qu Yang nodded and said, "good! Good! I wish Lord Shen would come back! I'll take you right away! "
