Xianqin Multiverse Empire

His daughter's name will be Zhou Qingyun in the future, and she is also one of the three elites and two clouds appointed by the Emei Sect!
"Brother, do you also want to go to the capital?"
"Yes, the Holy One is extremely wise and filial. In order to avenge the late emperor, he did not hesitate to set off a big case. Even when the Master mentioned the Holy One, he said that the Holy One is the most filial person, but the methods are a bit cruel. But in my opinion , isn't this better?"
"That's right, repaying grievances and revenge, this is what a man should do. If you want me to say it, Your Majesty did a great job!"
They were originally wandering in the land of Qilu, which is not far from the capital, even very close, so the two brothers waited until the end of summer and autumn, when it was only one month before the start of the competition.
The two brothers have practiced martial arts since childhood. Although they haven't cultivated such extraordinary things as inner qi and true qi, they can still be called healthy and powerful. One and the other are 1.9 meters five in height. The land of Qilu, which is generally high, can be regarded as outstanding.
In addition, they have all practiced weapons, so they are more courageous. The two of them went straight on the road with weapons and armor, and they were not afraid of encountering thieves, so they were obviously very confident.
But along the way, the closer you get to the capital, the less confident you are!
When they made up their minds in spring, the two of them still felt that they were expected to be in the top ten, and a house within Beijing's second ring road would definitely be fine.Soaring to the top is just around the corner.
"It's probably hopeless to be in the top ten, so let's go to the top [-]. With the abilities of you and my brother, the top [-] is still possible."
……
The time soon came to the day when the Imperial Contest began. Outside Beijing, tens of thousands of strong men from all over the country looked at each other with confused faces.
It was at this moment that many warriors remembered the conditions for participating in the Imperial Tournament, armed with armor, longbows, weapons, and arrows, and within four hours, they could go hundreds of miles away.
Doesn't the armor cost money?
Don't weapons cost money?
How can people who have no money and no experience participate in today's imperial martial arts competition?
Most of those who dare to come here today have a clue, but there are too many strong ones, right?
It's really not easy to earn a flat in Beijing.
"The saint is coming!"
"Look? Is that the Son of Heaven?"
"Long live!"
"Long live!"
"Long live!"
"I am Chongzhen, and I am also the Son of Heaven."
When speaking, Chongzhen was wearing armor and a helmet. He didn't look like an emperor, but more like a general who was always ready to fight.
Wufu!
The emperor does not love scribes but martial arts!
Son of Heaven, you have changed!
Don't you love me, Your Majesty?
Your Majesty, the warrior has wronged the country!
Your Majesty, why don't you go back to live in the palace?It's been a year, Your Majesty, do you still think about people?Is it time to come back?
Seeing the tens of thousands of armored men in front of him, Chongzhen became more and more delighted!
This is a good family!
During the Han Dynasty, the imperial court only had the Northern Army and the Southern Army. The number was pitifully small, at most tens of thousands, but once there was a need, it could quickly expand to hundreds of thousands, and even the combat power was still very strong. .
Why?
Because during the Han Dynasty, the imperial court had a sufficient number of good families, waiting among the people all the time, waiting for the imperial court's call!
As a result, during the Eastern Han Dynasty, the court did not want Liangjiazi, so Liangjiazi had to vote with their feet!
"Hahaha……"
While laughing, Chongzhen rode his horse and approached the strong men. At the closest time, the distance between them was even less than 100 meters. This distance shocked Wu Sangui, Li Zicheng and others who were in charge of guarding Chongzhen.
The distance is less than 100 meters, so many strong men, if anyone can't figure it out, holding a longbow can even shoot directly at His Majesty!
And after Chongzhen made such a gesture, the strong men's favor for him was also unprecedented, and it instantly skyrocketed to max.
"I announce that the imperial martial arts performance has officially begun!"
when!
Accompanied by the sound of gongs resounding throughout the audience, tens of thousands of strong men entered their examination room in an orderly manner, a road about a hundred miles long that had just finished training this year.
Four hours!
As long as you go hundreds of miles away in full armor within four hours, you will be a member of the imperial warriors and can enjoy a high salary of two taels of silver per month.
This is no middleman, no two taels of silver lost!
In addition, the imperial court will directly give you ten acres of land!
After 20 years of service, if you are still alive, the ten acres of land will be yours!
If you die in battle, the ten acres of land will be yours too!
More importantly, these ten acres of land are located near the imperial city, at the foot of the emperor. Before Chongzhen's head became stupid, it is impossible for officials to do whatever they want on these ten acres of land.
The previous sentence is public, and the last sentence was circulated at some time, but the warriors believed it!Even if I didn't believe it before, but after seeing the Son of Heaven with my own eyes today, I believe it!
Can the emperor still lack the money for my ten acres of land?
Rush!
Rush!
At the finish line, Cao Wenzhao and Cao Bianjiao's uncle and nephew were chatting.
"Uncle, I didn't expect that there are so many warriors in the soft Jiangnan!"
"Hiss, I didn't expect that the men in Jiangnan are all first-rate talkers, who are best at fighting in bed?"
Cough!
Hearing the sound of coughing, looking back, it turned out to be Lu Xiangsheng, a literati who didn't look like a Jinshi master at all.But why is he coughing?Oh, come to think of it, he is from Nanzhili, and he can be regarded as a person from Jiangnan.
"By the way, Mr. Lu, why are there so many warriors in Jiangnan?"
"This is actually a misunderstanding. It is true that culture and education are flourishing in the south of the Yangtze River. Almost every household there can read and practice calligraphy. Every village has a private school. Students will first study and practice calligraphy in the private school in the village. When I am older, I will visit famous teachers, and those who have no money will continue to study hard, enter school, and take the imperial examination."
"The world only sees the previous imperial examinations, and the Jiangnan region has the largest number of Jinshi, but they don't see the efforts of the students in the Jiangnan region."
After sighing, Lu Xiangsheng knew that he was talking nonsense again when he looked at the two people with confused faces. When dealing with this kind of guy, he had to crush the words, break them apart, and speak clearly, otherwise they would not understand.
"In short, there are many people studying in Jiangnan, too many, but the number of scholars and candidates is limited every year. Therefore, the vast majority of people cannot be admitted as scholars or candidates. , and those without talent are even more hopeless."
And there are more small landlords in the south of the Yangtze River, so since the news of the martial arts competition in front of the imperial court was announced, a large number of sons of landlords in the south of the Yangtze River began to practice martial arts, sharpen their strength, and practice archery.
As the sons of landlords, they were well fed and could even afford meat and travel expenses. As a result, strong men from Jiangnan accounted for a full [-]%.However, relatively few passed in the end, and most of them were just one-day tours of the arena.
……
"Your Majesty, there are a total of 260 three warriors in this imperial tournament. They will reach the finish line within four hours and become imperial warriors." Wang Chengen reported the final situation.
"Your Majesty, my old Cao Jue, apart from the qualified warriors before the imperial court, those who insist on reaching the finish line after four hours are also good men. Although they are not as physically strong as the former, they still love the court and His Majesty just as much. They can practice if their physical strength is not good, but they are all loyal and good men."
"Yes, Your Majesty, many men have climbed to the finish line. It's just that when they climbed to the finish line, it was already the fifth hour, or even the seventh and eighth hour. There are even many good men who fainted on the way. Die, or even die from exhaustion." Lu Xiangsheng nodded in agreement.
"Well, yes, those who can persevere to the finish line are all heroes. Pass on my will. Anyone who goes to the finish line with armor and weapons can be a candidate for the Imperial Warrior. Except that they don't have ten acres of land, other treatment is the same as that of the Imperial Warrior. As for Those who died on the road will be rewarded with 50 taels of silver as compensation."
"Long live!"
"Long live!"
"Long live!"
Qi said without clothes?Go with the child.Master Wang Yuxing, repair my spear.Have hatred with the son!
Qi said without clothes?Tongze with the child.Master Wang Yuxing, repair my spear.Work with the son!
Qi said without clothes?Same clothes with the child.Division Wang Yuxing, repair my armor.Go with the son!
The first Imperial Martial Arts Tournament ended in a burst of undressing. The young and old in Beijing were stunned, the nobles were stunned, and the civil servants were even more surprised and speechless!
Tens of thousands of people sang Wuyi together, this moment is truly united!
The soldiers on the nine sides, call them the servants of the emperor!
People in the capital call them house slave warriors!
Although there is a word slave in the name, it's not that the people in the capital look down on them, but they are full of envy, jealousy and hatred!
In the autumn of the first year of Chongzhen, Lin Danhan invaded the grassland.
Lin Dan Khan is a descendant of the Golden Family, a direct descendant of Genghis Khan, and a serious remnant of the Northern Yuan Dynasty. However, he failed as a sweater and was beaten by Huang Taiji before he ran away.
Unwilling to be reconciled, Lin Danhan wanted to enter the Central Plains to recover a wave of blood.
Then he met the dragoons that Emperor Chongzhen had prepared for him, that is, mounted infantry!
Of course, the equestrian skills of these infantrymen are not as good as the Mongolian warriors, but they are not cavalry in the first place. Their weapons are flintlock guns that have been handcrafted by master craftsmen in the capital over the past year, and the quality is guaranteed.
With these flintlock guns, it is still very easy to kill a person with one shot within 20 meters!
No matter how strong this person is, no matter whether this person was a marksman or not, and no matter how prominent this person is, everyone is equal under the flintlock!
Saying that one shot kills you means one shot kills you!
There is no middleman to make the price difference, and everyone will pay for it with one shot!
The tactics of these flintlock knights are also very simple. If you shoot close to the gun, if you have good marksmanship, you can shoot the head with a shot from 50 meters away. If you are not good at marksmanship, it is still possible to hit a horse from 30 meters away.
Never fight head on!
Never charge!
Never close combat!
Run after one shot!
Come back after you've loaded the ammunition!
So much so that the Mongolian warriors under Lin Dan Khan's command denounced these fusiliers and called them black cavalry, which means that they all shoot black guns, and they can only shoot black guns!
But these infantrymen who can only shoot black guns and don't know how to fight immediately succeeded in driving Lin Danhan back to the grassland, and completely left thousands of grassland herdsmen, and even robbed hundreds of cattle and thousands of cattle The sheep come back.
In the autumn of the second year of Chongzhen, the second Imperial Martial Arts Tournament began. This time the warriors prepared for a full year!Compared with the hasty preparation for the first time, this time there are too many warriors who have been training hard at home for a year.
There are even many teachers and fathers who open martial arts gyms, taking the opportunity to launch new activities that increase ten pounds of muscle in three months and twenty pounds of muscle in half a year.
Shaolin Temple, Wudang Sect, Huashan Sect and many other well-known decent sects have responded to the call of the imperial court and followed the trend of the times, offering one crash course after another for physical strength.
The so-called crash course is to train muscles specifically.
Before you came in, you were a skinny man, but after paying the money, you are guaranteed to become a muscular man in one year!FULL MONEY BACK FAIL!
If the conditions are good, I invite someone to come to my home for personal guidance.For those with poor conditions, go to a martial arts gym or a boxing gym, enroll in a study class, and spend a whole year exercising, learning how to use archery and weapons.
In the autumn of the second year of Chongzhen, the second Imperial Martial Arts Tournament was held under the walls of Beijing.
This time, a total of 3 warriors were selected as the imperial warriors, and became a glorious house slave warrior, a new era soldier, and the emperor's servant.This time, more than [-] common people became candidates for warriors.
At the end of autumn in the second year of Chongzhen, Huang Taiji invaded!
This year everything is different, Mao Wenlong is still alive, Yuan Chonghuan is no longer the governor of Ji Liao...
On a certain plain in Ji Town, a decisive battle started unexpectedly, and this decisive battle came sooner than everyone expected!
To the north is Huang Taiji's big camp, which has 20 Manchu Eight Banners, [-] Mongolian Eight Banners, [-] Han Eight Banners, and [-] cannon fodder cavalry recruited by Mongolia.
To the south is Chongzhen's camp, which has 11 imperial warriors, 30 warrior candidates, and [-] dragoons, a total of [-], which is claimed to be [-]!
If you just look at the claims, this is a war between 50 regular troops!
If civilian husbands are added, this is a battle with a total of millions of people!
This battle will directly determine the fate of Hou Jin and Ming Dynasty for the next ten years.If you consider the current environment, this is a battle for supremacy in East Asia!
……
"This battle must be won, and it is still a big victory! Although my Dajin is far superior to the Ming Dynasty in all aspects, but the population is not as good as the Ming Dynasty, so the general of the Khan ordered that in this battle, the heads of the four imperial warrior candidates, Just reward a future, and the heads of the two imperial warriors will also reward a future. Let the servants below do a good job, and this Khan will not hesitate to reward you! Those who have military merits can even directly raise the flag and become bannermen!"
……
"It is passed on to the general order that one post-golden head can make a warrior candidate become a warrior directly, and can also be exchanged for ten acres of land. One post-golden head can obtain the qualification for a 20-year half-price mortgage for small households in Beijing. Three post-golden heads, You can directly get a small house!"
