At Qian Qianyi's residence in Ningguo Manor.
"Tututu
Qian Qianyi was resting in his room when a sudden knock on the door woke him up.
He rubbed his sleepy eyes, lifted the blanket, and got up to open the door.
"It's so late at night. What can't we talk about it tomorrow?”
When the scout saw Qian Qianyi open the door, he rushed into the room without hesitation. After closing the door and windows, he hurriedly said,"Sir, something bad has happened!"
"Liu Zongmin led 100,000 soldiers to attack the Hui Prefecture at night, but they were ambushed!”
"I heard that the 100,000-strong army was wiped out in an instant. Liu Zongmin is probably dead!”
When Qian Qianyi heard the bad news, his sleepiness suddenly disappeared.
" What?!"
"How is that possible?"
"The spies of the Hui Prefecture said that they only have twenty thousand soldiers left. How can these twenty thousand soldiers fight against Liu Zongmin's hundred thousand soldiers?”
" Is the news really accurate?!"
The scout nodded with a heavy expression." Sir, it's true!”
"I heard that Yang Jing and his gang had already laid an ambush in Jixi County, waiting for Liu Zongmin to take the bait!”
Qian Qianyi was shocked." Cannon?! How did they get the Great Ming Firearms? Do you know where they came from?”
The scout shook his head." I don't know.”
"However, I heard from the scouts that the cannon is extremely powerful, even more so than the Great Ming Hong Yi Cannon.”
When Qian Qianyi heard this, he felt his vision go black. He lost his balance and almost fell. It was the scout who quickly caught him.
He suddenly remembered Yang Jing's surprise attack on the Liaodong Peninsula and his complete victory.
Originally, Qian Qianyi was curious as to why Yang Jing was able to kill hundreds of thousands of people so easily. It was because of the cannons!
This Manchu Qing's Huang Taiji was really too cunning. They deliberately hid the news of Yang Jing's cannons, probably waiting for the day when Yang Jing ruthlessly bombarded Li Zicheng's Great Shun Army!
If Li Zicheng lost 200,000 soldiers, it would be very beneficial to the Manchu Dynasty!
It wasn't a matter of time before they set their eyes on the Great Ming North!
He should never have listened to the Manchu Qing Dynasty and asked for the tiger's skin!
Aiya! He was really careless this time!
The regretful Qian Qianyi hurriedly turned around and put on his shoes and socks, preparing to pack his things.
"Quick, quick, get the car ready!"
"Yang Jing was able to easily wipe out Liu Zongmin's 100,000 strong army. Presumably, wiping out the remaining 100,000 soldiers of the Shun army is only a matter of time.”
"The Ming army at the front line of the Ningguo Manor won't be able to hold on for long.”
"At this time, no prefecture is willing to send troops to support. The Ningguo Manor will soon be lost!”
"Hurry up and run now. As long as there's life, there's hope!”
"Also, don't tell anyone about Liu Zongmin's defeat, especially those old gentry in the Ningguo Manor!”
"Yes, sir!"
The scout nodded heavily, turned around, and left.
However, not long after the scout left, there was another knock on the door.
"Tututu
Qian Qianyi couldn't help but curse angrily," What time is it now? Why are you still knocking on the door?”
"If you have something to say, come in quickly!"
As soon as he opened the door, a black shadow flashed past the door. Qian Qianyi was hit hard on the back of his neck, and he fainted in an instant.
When he opened his eyes again, he saw a completely unfamiliar environment.
In front of him stood a young man who was wearing a coat and looking at him with a smile.
The young man said with a smile, his voice as gentle as jade.
"Elder Qian, nice to meet you.”
Qian Qianyi looked at the young man and was stunned for a moment. He rubbed his head and looked around the room. He had a bold guess about the identity of the young man in front of him.
"You are Yang Jing."
Yang Jing nodded." Yes."
Although he had already guessed it, Yang Jing's frank admission shocked him.
He had thought that Yang Jing, who was scheming and skilled in war, was an old man over fifty years old. He did not expect him to be so young!
Although their positions were different, Qian Qianyi had to admit that the young man in front of him was indeed worthy of the words young and promising.
Qian Qianyi knew that he was already dead, so he sighed and gave up resisting.
He forced himself to lean against the wall behind him and sat up. He stared at Yang Jing with his turbid old eyes for a moment.
Before he died, he still had a few questions he couldn't figure out.
"Where did you get those handguns and cannons?”
"Firearms and cannons are the most important weapons of the country. The Divine Arms Battalion of the Great Ming Dynasty has always regarded them as treasures.”
"This old man has never heard of a blueprint being lost.”
Yang Jing intended to let the old man in front of him die in peace, so he did not intend to hide these things.
He looked at Qian Qianyi and smiled." In this world, the Divine Arms Battalion of the Ming Dynasty is not the only one who knows how to make firearms and cannons.”
Qian Qianyi was shocked.
Muskets and cannons were exquisite firearms. The person in front of him was not even that old, but he could actually master such technology!
He suddenly understood. No wonder everyone said that Yang Jing was a great talent for governing the world comparable to Zhenguan!
He had the foresight to use advanced weapons like handguns and cannons to kill the enemy, so it would be even easier for him to govern a prefecture.
Qian Qianyi sighed and shook his head.
He had a vague feeling that the Manchurian Dorgon had met its true opponent.
Today, anyone with discerning eyes could see that the one who could destroy Great Ming was not Li Zicheng, nor was it Zhang Xianzhong, but the Manchu Qing far away outside Shanhaiguan!
Now, Yang Jing's appearance had undoubtedly broken this balance.
Out of all the forces in the Central Plains, Yang Jing's side was probably the only one that could stop the Manchu Empire.
Thinking of this, Qian Qianyi smiled. He laughed at himself for overestimating his own strength. If he had known that Yang Jing had firearms, he and the Donglin Party of the Yingtian Prefecture would not have underestimated him.
"I still have a question. Mr. Yang, please enlighten me.”
In the end, Qian Qianyi was still a scholar who studied Confucianism. When faced with people whose knowledge was far higher than his, he would sincerely admire them. Therefore, when he faced Yang Jing, he subconsciously changed his address.
"How did you know that I allied with Li Zicheng and prepared to attack the Hui Prefecture at night?”
Qian Qianyi was not a fool. When he heard the news that Yang Jing had defeated 100,000 soldiers, he immediately thought that his plan had been exposed.
From Yang Jing suddenly sending troops to Ningguo Manor to setting up an ambush in Jixi County, all of this could not be a coincidence.
Yang Jing smiled and did not say anything. He raised his hand and lightly clapped his palm. A woman slowly walked over from behind the screen.
Qian Qianyi saw the woman's appearance clearly and was instantly speechless.
