When the large group of Gyeonggi Guards rushed to a distance of a hundred meters, the fifty cannons deployed by the Lidian Army on both sides opened fire.
The roaring sound of artillery sounded, and the round solid artillery shells plowed blanks in the crowd of Gyeonggi Guards, smashing the human bodies passing by into pieces, and then the solid artillery shells that hit the ground bounced away again. , formed an irregular line, and blood spattered again in the Gyeonggi Guards.
With just one shelling, most of the Gyeonggi Guards were knocked unconscious.
Many soldiers of the Gyeonggi Guard felt that their minds went blank and they only knew how to rush forward. Others were so frightened that they turned around and ran away.
At this time, the prepared arquebusiers fired a volley.
Then, the soldiers in the first row who fired the volley turned and returned to the back of the third row. The soldiers in the second row all stepped forward, squatted down and fired a volley, then turned and returned to the back of the first row.
The soldiers in the third row also squatted forward and fired volleys.
By the time the soldiers in the third row turned around and returned to their original positions, the soldiers in the first row had already loaded their ammunition and stepped forward again to fire a volley.
In this way, in the hands of these soldiers who were extremely skilled in loading ammunition, the matchlock guns continued to fire rows of projectiles weighing 50 grams, beating the rushing Gyeonggi Guard soldiers into falling sieves.
In this way, the previously passionate Gyeonggi Guards suddenly collapsed.
In the end, only more than 50,000 people from the entire 200,000-strong army fled back to the capital.
Later, facing the siege of the Lidian Army, these Gyeonggi Guards, who had long been frightened, turned into deserters in groups.
The extremely strong city wall did not play a role in protecting the capital at all. The Lidian Army only launched a single charge and captured the city gate.
The golden kingfisher flag of the Liedian Kingdom was planted on the wall of the capital of the Qinglong Kingdom in shock. The emperor of the Qinglong Kingdom had to flee in a hurry, which was a huge loss of face.
In the end, under the great victory of the Liedian Kingdom, the emperor of the Qinglong Kingdom, who had fled far away, had to send his important ministers to sign the Jiahai Treaty with the Liedian Kingdom, which was humiliating and humiliating the country.
This treaty not only compensated Liandian for war reparations of 100 million taels of silver, but also allowed Liedian's merchant ships to ignore inspections by the Coast Guard and directly dock for transactions.
In addition, the three ports along the coast of Qinglong Kingdom were separately designated as ports for merchant ships trading in Lidian Kingdom, and no tariffs were allowed!
In this way, the Qinglong Kingdom's reputation as the oldest empire was trampled down to the last drop by the Liandian Kingdom.
The weakness of the Qinglong Kingdom was clearly exposed to the eyes of all the great powers.
Then the great powers such as the Daxiong Kingdom and the Iron Lion Kingdom all sent warships to threaten them and signed the ancillary clauses of the Jiahai Treaty, forcing the Qinglong Kingdom to list the three ports as common tax-free ports for transactions among all the powers.
The compensation of 100 million silver alone allowed the Qinglong Kingdom to increase a lot of tax revenue in various places. In some places, the tax revenue was even increased ten years later.
This is completely squeezing people's wealth.
Many originally wealthy families have suddenly become poor.
As a result, the people of the country were indignant, but at the same time it also awakened the people. Many people began to learn from the knowledge of the great powers and wanted to initiate reforms and change the fate of this old empire.
During this period, there was Meng Xiucai.
However, not long after Meng Xiucai came into contact with the knowledge of the great powers, he saw a book about the spirit of mercy from a foreign country.
Meng Xiucai soon became fascinated by this scripture. At the same time, he felt that the reason why the great powers were strong lay in the spiritual level and in worshiping this benevolent God.
But Meng Xiucai is from Qinglong country after all.
The characteristic of the Qinglong people is that belief in gods must be beneficial. They will not believe in gods without benefits.
And the people of Qinglong are very good at localizing foreign religions.
Therefore, Meng Xiucai quickly used this sacred text of mercy as the main body, tampered with some of the scriptures, wrote his own name on it, and claimed among the people that he was the son of the benevolent God sent to the mortal world to save the suffering.
After three years of development among the people, Meng Xiucai took advantage of the local government's extortion of taxes and donations to launch a rebellious slogan of God loving the world and establishing the kingdom of God on earth.
It must be said that Meng Xiucai was very talented in his rebellion.
In just three months, the Divine Love Alliance he developed killed officials and seized cities in various places, creating quite a momentum. It even frightened the governor of Nandu to abandon the city and flee, leaving Nandu, the second largest city in the Qinglong Kingdom, behind. The big cities were captured.
Subsequently, Meng Xiucai held a grand worship ceremony in Nandu, proclaimed the establishment of the Kingdom of God on earth, proclaimed himself the Son of God, and crowned a group of old brothers who had followed the rebellion as kings and marquises. He also sent several troops to attack.
One of the troops was led by Zuo Wang Zhang Xuanmi, and they reached Quan'an County, which was 300 kilometers away from Donglin County.
At this time, Fang Town happened to be passing through Quan'an County, so it was tragically hit by a military disaster.
This is outside the city wall of Quan'an County.
According to Fang Xiaozhen's memory, Quan'an County at this time had been captured by Zuo Wang Zhang Xuanmi, and the army had already stationed in the county, but some soldiers from the Kingdom of God could still be seen collecting corpses in the distance.
Fang Xiaozhen escaped by hiding in a pile of corpses. Then when the soldiers of the Kingdom of God were preparing to burn the corpses, he crawled out and was forcibly recruited as a slave in the supply camp, thus starting a life of wandering.
This is not surprising. In order to unify the thoughts within the kingdom of God on earth, Meng Xiucai called the court of the Qinglong Kingdom the Demon Court and the officials the Qing Demon!
The green demon who was the magistrate of Quan'an County tried to surrender after breaking the city, but was immediately beheaded by King Zuo, not to mention Fang Xiaozhen, the prime minister who had been in the Hanlin Academy!
Of course he didn't dare to reveal his identity, but it could be seen from his words and deeds that he was a scholar.
I wonder if Meng Xiucai was extremely hostile to scholars because he was a scholar who rebelled.
Therefore, it is not surprising that the scholar Fang Xiaozhen was used as a slave.
Fang Xiaoyue doesn't want to be a slave. That would be a waste of time.
According to memory, after the soldiers collected the corpses on the battlefield, they would go to eat and then burn the corpses.
This is not surprising. If it were you, you wouldn't be willing to burn the body before eating.
So he had a total of two and a half hours before he would be captured and turned into a slave.
Fang Xiaoyue's mind was running rapidly, searching for hundreds of fast cultivation methods.
He quickly chose the simplest method of fast cultivation on the ground.
First, he sat down cross-legged in the pile of corpses, used other people's blood to draw a few complex and weird runes on his chest, then made a bottle seal with both hands, closed his eyes, hypnotized himself for three minutes, quickly fell asleep, and then turned around For lucid dreaming, start practicing meditation while in lucid dreaming.
The key to this practice method is how to quickly enter a lucid dream and use the different flow rates of time between dreams and reality to gain enough practice time.
So when he slowly woke up from his sleep, he had been practicing in the dream for ten days!
