    Chapter 1050: Chaos in Eastern Xinjiang There may never be absolute fairness in this world.  For example, the powerful Meng Yuan Wolf Rider is invincible on the grassland, but he can only sigh when looking at the Yishui River.  The dominance of the Black Flag Army's large naval vessels on the waterways was unshakable. The tactics of building pontoons learned from the Han people could not be used under the crushing force of the Black Flag Army's navy.  The closest to success was when the pontoon bridge built in advance rushed into the river under the lift of hundreds of people. Unfortunately, due to the inaccurate estimation of the width of Yishui River, the pontoon bridge was so short that it was not possible to wait for Meng Yuan.  When people thought about how to continue, the archers of the Black Flag Navy used feather arrows to slaughter the soldiers carrying the pontoon for a while.  Later, the Meng Yuan people changed their tactics and kidnapped many Han people and asked them to carry the pontoon bridge into the water.  Now the soldiers of the Black Flag Army did not dare to fire any more arrows, but they lowered two fireships from upstream and directly broke the pontoon bridge. Then the navy's ships began to rescue people.  Most of the people who fell into the water were rescued.  The Meng Yuan people tried their best, but they just couldn't get through it.  "Sometimes I feel really helpless." Da Zizi looked at Mr. Jiu's leaving figure and shook his head: "The world has become different because of practitioners. What does a country's strength depend on? A strong army.  ? A rich granary? Or billions of people? Neither Sometimes even as a practitioner, I want to curse" Brother Meng looked at him with some contempt in his eyes.  "You are really hypocritical." He said.  Da Zi Zai laughed and said: "The person who controls a country is an individual rather than a powerful army. This is indeed unacceptable, especially you, Your Majesty. If there are no practitioners in this world, maybe war will  It will become fair. If Xiao Yijiu is here, we can't pass. But having said that, even if there are no practitioners in this world, it will not be easy for you to cross the river.  It's like a wild beast, but you don't have a dragon-slaying knife in your hand." He sat down and said, "How can we be fair? If there are no practitioners, we must devote ourselves to developing weapons.  Just like the current Black Flag Army. After possessing firearms, the Black Flag Army's combat power is amazing. In the past, there was an unwritten rule between countries, that is, great practitioners did not participate in wars between countries.  , But this rule is meaningless. Which practitioner would not take action when his country is being violated? " Meng Ge said: "Can even the most powerful practitioner kill all the people in the world?  "Da Zizi shook his head: "No" "Meng Ge said: "So, it is relatively fair to have practitioners in this world. When the great practitioners are uncontrollable, maybe even the emperor's life is not saved. But when the weapon is out of control, the world will be at risk."  No guarantee." "You are already a loyal believer in God." "I am happy for you." "Maybe, I am wrong." "Why?"  Meng Ge took a deep breath: "Although I made a decision after coming down from Dalun Temple, there is still a question in my mind that I can't understand. What kind of development is correct It is up to the practitioners to decide the fate of the country.  ? This is not possible, just like the Great Wheel Ming King has been suppressing our Kuoke Taimeng family for more than a thousand years, he can decide the life or death of the entire Golden Family at any time, unless a real Great Wheel Bright King is born in the Golden Family.  The great practitioner who defeated him, otherwise this fate will not change unless Lord Dalun Ming dies. "But it would be more appropriate if the weapon with the ability to destroy the world is in the hands of the emperor." Da Zizai said in confusion.  "Didn't you just say that the world with practitioners is relatively fair?" Meng Ge said: "What I mean by fairness is fairness to ordinary people. The practitioners are superior, and even if they lose control, they will only kill the nobles.  The royal family will not kill innocent people indiscriminately. But after the weapon reaches that level of power, it will be ordinary people who will be implicated. I did not make the decision from the position of the Mongolian Great Khan.  I¡¯m not a god, but my thoughts are different from those of most people.¡± ¡°I can¡¯t understand.¡± Da Zizai said, ¡°I thought you made the decision for the rise of the Meng Yuan.¡± ¡°If it was for the rise of the Meng Yuan, I would.  I hope to develop firearms like the Black Flag Army." Brother Meng glanced at Da Zizi and said, "My choice is right for the people in the world, but for the Golden Family and Meng Yuan.  Wrong. I don¡¯t know why I made such a decision, after seeing that scene in Dalun Temple.At that moment, I knew I had to stop it from happening.  At that moment, I forgot that I was the Great Khan of Meng Yuan and that I shouldered the mission of rising the Golden Family.  " Da Zizai frowned: "You are really contradictory.  " Brother Meng looked towards the river, pointed and said: "If you can't kill Xiao Yijiu within three days and then destroy the Black Flag Army's naval gunboats, I will lead my troops back.  My losses are not too great now. After I go back and recuperate for a while, Meng Yuan's national strength can be restored.  I have gradually come out of the mentality of doing this for the world. If there are more setbacks, I will become the original me.  " Da Zizai was silent for a while and then said: "Okay, in three days, if Mr. Jiu does not come back, the four of us will fight to the death to prevent Xiao Yijiu from blocking you anymore.  " Brother Meng shook his head: "You haven't thought about one thing clearly yet In this Eastern Expedition, the Buddha Sect is the main force, and I am just cooperating with the Wolf Cavalry.  Because you Buddhists are the loyal believers and slaves of God, but I am not.  If I have to be separated, then at most I am just God¡¯s helper.  " Da Zi Zai was shocked. He suddenly thought that he had overlooked one thing. Brother Meng did agree to God's Eastern Expedition and put it into action, but Brother Meng was a sweat first. When he saw the firearms of the Black Flag Army  After the power, how can we not be tempted? Once the Khan becomes more and more convinced that the development of firearms is the path that mankind should take, then this Eastern Expedition will probably be abandoned halfway Chang'an City Fang Jie walked on the street, and  There was no disguise or face-covering. In fact, not many people in Chang'an City really knew Fang Jie. Even those on East 23rd Street did not remember Fang Jie's face.  It's so big that most people have never seen Fang Jie. He is walking on the streets of Xicheng. He rarely comes here, so the people don't know him. At this time, he is walking on the streets to see this big city.  , it is no longer the same as before in Chang'an City. When he was in Chang'an City before, he looked at Chang'an with an attitude of looking up. He felt that it was so big that even though he was in it, he felt that it was far away from Chang'an. Now,  To put it crudely, he looked like a wealthy businessman walking in the industry under his own name. To put it more to say, he was powerful and domineering, it meant that the emperor was inspecting his territory. The situation in Chang'an City has changed over the past few days.  It gradually stabilized. Those damn people had been killed, and a group of people would be executed in Caishikou every day, just like after the rebellion of King Yi Yang Yin, a group of people would lose their heads in Caishikou every day.  The city has now reached a very delicate balance. Fang Jie needs to kill a group of people to establish his authority and let everyone know who is the master of Chang'an City. The idea of ????the surviving courtiers is to sacrifice a group of people.  In exchange for Fang Jie's acceptance. Both sides took what they wanted, and the dead people were just washed up in the sand. "Lord" Chen Xiaoru caught up with Fang Jie and said in a low voice: "There is news from Dongjiang.  ¡± ¡­ ¡­ ¡­ ¡­ Dongjiang Phoenix Terrace This famous border town in the Sui Dynasty is now completely incomplete. The city walls are covered with scars, and the traces left by cannonballs are shocking. On the city wall, there are only a few wall stacks left, but they still stand.  The big fierce red battle flag on the city wall is still fluttering in the wind, even though it has been so dilapidated, and many people have died here. Even though the Opuru Empire's army has powerful firearms.  Sometimes, the perseverance and fighting spirit of soldiers are the key factors that determine the outcome of a war. Dong Chu was easily destroyed. As Dong Chu's immediate neighbor, the Sui people showed a fighting spirit that made foreigners awe.  The people in this border town were the men of the Black Flag Army Nalan Dingdong. He left his base and his familiar hometown with an army of 100,000, and traveled thousands of miles from the southwest to Eastern Xinjiang.  The fierce battle with the foreigners began, and Nalan Dingdong stood on the city wall and looked at the foreign company in the distance, feeling a little uneasy. It had been half a month, and the supplies promised by Mu Guangling had not yet been delivered.  If this continues, the army will be out of food in less than ten days. This is even if the Black Flag Army has supplies to go down to support it. The foreign fleets entered the inland from the Yangtze River Estuary, and then attacked the Sui Army's retreat.  Because they were a little careless in gathering intelligence, the Zhao army that came from Jiangdu was defeated and was repelled by the foreign army for nearly a hundred miles. As a result, the situation immediately became chaotic.There are foreigners in front of the team, and there are also foreigners in the back.  And there are Han people in front of the foreigners, and there may be no Han people behind them.  The total number of Han troops from all walks of life exceeds nearly one million, but without a unified command and dispatch, they are like a piece of scattered sand.  Everyone who came wanted to keep the enemy out of the country, but no one was convinced.  Mu Guangling sent six troops to support Phoenix Tower, but five of them did not send troops at all.  One of the troops that rushed to Phoenix Terrace was a coalition of troops from various green forest roads in Eastern Xinjiang.  As a result, such a team with outstanding combat power but no combat experience only lasted for seven days and more than 70% of its troops died.  ¡°If Nalan Dingdong hadn¡¯t decided to bring the Black Flag Army over, I¡¯m afraid the Phoenix Tower would have been lost by now.  The reason why Phoenix Tower is so famous is precisely because of its important strategic position.  Once the Phoenix Tower is lost, the foreign team can march straight in.  It can be said that the most important places for risk-taking in Eastern Xinjiang are Fenghuang Terrace and Shanhaiguan.  Because of this incident, Mu Guangling was very angry. When he convened a meeting, he beheaded the five leaders who refused to obey the generals. As a result, conflicts arose. Before fighting the foreigners, there was a conflict between his own family members.  The fight started first.  "General, Mu Guangling sent someone to deliver a letter." The soldiers quickly arrived behind Nalan Dingdong and handed over a letter.  Nalan Dingdong unfolded the letter and read it, then sneered: "Before I brought the troops here, I always thought Mu Guangling was a true hero. But now, his energy has gradually shifted from resisting foreigners to maintaining his own status.  He asked me to send troops to cut off the Luling Army's retreat, and then swallowed up the Luling Army. At first, the troops of Mu Mansion stood at the front and faced the foreigners with real swords and guns, but now they are thinking about how to preserve their strength.  As more and more people rush to aid Eastern Xinjiang, Mu Guangling's selfish desires become more and more serious. "Then what should we do?" the soldier asked.  Nalan Dingdong handed the letter to the soldier: "Hurry up and send it to the Luling Army. Tell him that my Black Flag Army will not do anything to harm friendly forces. The Luling Army can move closer to my back.  The Ling Army's food and grass supplies, our Black Flag Army is out." "But our food and grass are almost out," the soldier said anxiously.  "Mu Guangling thinks that holding the granary holds the lifeblood of all the horses, so let's go and get the lifeblood back ourselves." Nalan Dingdong turned around: "Let the cavalry prepare and go out with me tonight!"
