Daming: From the end of Hongwu

253 Chapter 251 - Zhu Yunqi sent troops and Miyun descended

Capital.

It rained last night, and the abundant rain swept away the dryness of the entire Nanjing city. Everything in the world, including humans, seemed to be nourished and glowed with a more energetic state.

Even on the second day, in some low corners of the imperial palace, there were still some small puddles of water. When the wind blows, the cool water vapor will fill the entire sky with the wind, bit by bit. With the hot feeling brought by the sun, it added a humidity to the whole palace.

In Fengtian Palace, when Zhu Yunwen heard that Yan Wang Zhu Di had rebelled, he was so shocked that he almost fell off the dragon chair.

On this day, he was discussing the "Zhouguan" law with Fang Xiaoru and others, intending to make reforms and revitalize the culture and governance, but the sudden news hit him in the head, so he didn't have any thoughts to discuss other things. of.

He looked at the notice written by Zhu Di, and watched Zhu Di one by one in order to help him, Qing Jun side, get rid of traitors, justice can no longer be justice.

Zhu Yunxuan angrily threw the notice on the ground heavily.

"Is there any reason for this? How dare you talk so cleverly. What do you think I am? An ignorant three-year-old child? Do I still need him to come to my side, when I don't know right from wrong, and don't know loyalty?" Zhu Yunwen said angrily. With that, those angers seemed to be burning more and more vigorously.

He already hated someone who would pretend to be his uncle, yet King Yan dared to use his uncle's name against him.

You must know that he is the emperor of Ming Dynasty.

The emperor does not need a few elders to press on his head.

What he needs is for everyone to surrender.

"Don't be annoyed, Your Majesty, it's just a high-sounding reason, how can you make Your Majesty angry." Fang Xiaoru quickly persuaded.

Realizing that he was losing his composure, Zhu Yunqi took a few deep breaths, trying to calm down. After he had suppressed the air pressure, Zhu Yunqi asked Ji Fang Xiaoru and the other three, but his expression still showed his unhappiness.

"In the current situation, how should I act, please speak freely."

Huang Zicheng thought for a while, then stepped forward and said: "The northern soldiers are always strong, if they don't attack them early, the land of Hebei may be lost, and then it will really become troublesome, so I suggest that you send troops to fight against them as soon as possible, and wait until the king of Yan is taken down." Afterwards, just question the crime again, there is no need to talk to King Yan right now."

Qi Tai also echoed: "I also think this is the best way. The King of Yan will rise up to resist, and His Majesty can take advantage of the situation to show the power of the court. The army will directly defeat the King of Yan. This will also deter other kings. There are benefits to this strategy.”

Sitting on the dragon chair, Zhu Yunwen's eyes flashed twice, and then he made up his mind: "Then let the army ask for it."

Afterwards, several people began to discuss how to enter the army.

And when several people's discussions were in full swing, many military generals outside the court were eagerly waiting for Zhu Yunqi's call, but after waiting, they only waited until they were disappointed.

For such military matters, Zhu Yunqi only discussed with a few civil servants before deciding on a strategy. He had no intention of discussing anything with the military personnel at all, as if he only needed the military personnel to carry out.

Soon, Zhu Yunqi and others decided on a strategy.

The next day, Zhu Yunwen took his courtiers to pay homage to the Heaven and Earth Ancestral Temple and Sheji, cut off the affiliation of Yan King Zhu Di in full view, and at the same time issued an edict to show the world.

The general idea of ​​the edict: The family is unlucky, and the relatives and uncles have repeatedly tried to rebel. Last year, the common people of Zhou wanted to do something wrong, and contacted the kings of Yan, Qi, and King Xiang to rebel. I read that everyone is relatives, and stopped the crimes of the common people of Zhou. This year, the king of Qi again I conspired with Zhu Di and Zhu Bo, King Zhu Bo of Xiang burned himself to death in fear of crime, King Zhu Mi of Qi was deposed by me as a commoner, and King Zhu Di of Yan, I think that because I am the closest to me, I am not willing to punish Zhu Di for his crimes. However, Zhu Di raised troops to cause chaos and endanger the clan society. Such actions are punishable by the ancestors of heaven and earth, which is unforgivable. Therefore, I simply sent troops to attack Zhu Di, the king of Yan. Unite with the country, sweep away the adverse atmosphere, and rule forever.

After hearing this edict, the courtiers all looked a little weird, and for a while they all agreed with Zhu Yunqi like "ah, yes yes yes".

After that, Zhu Yunqi began to mobilize troops and condemn generals.

Geng Bingwen, the Marquis of Changxing, was appointed as the general who conquered the captives. Li Jian, the captain-in-law, and Ning Zhong, the governor-general, were the deputy generals on the left and right. They all commanded Sheng Yong, Pan Zhong, Yang Song, Gu Cheng, Xu Kai, Li You, Chen Hui, Ping'an, etc., and marched side by side from Shanxi, Henan, and Shandong.

He set up Pingyan Chief Secretary and Zhending, Shangshu Baozhao was in charge of the affairs, promoted Cheng Ji to be the editor of Hanlin, and served as a military division, with an army of one million, intending to attack Beiping with the power of thunder.

After hearing the arrangement, the courtiers looked weird again.

Is this simply sending troops? !
Question marks popped up on many heads.

The people in the military were looking forward to it, hoping that the court would finally use them, and they would finally be able to support themselves, but they did not expect that Zhu Yunqi had arranged for two civil servants to be military advisers and in charge of affairs.

What the hell is this motherfucker?

Are you saying they don't know how to fight?Still can't trust them?

The purpose of arranging military divisions is to ask them to listen to how civil servants fight wars. The purpose of arranging military divisions is to warn them that if they don't obey, they will be fined.

This is kind of interesting.

Many generals who received the order felt inexplicably upset in their hearts. They didn't expect to encounter such a situation after fighting for a lifetime.

It's fine if you don't discuss it with them, and let them listen to others when you go out to fight. Why don't you just let the civil servants take command.

But regardless of whether they were happy or not, Zhu Yunqi's arrangement was advanced several ways, Bingfeng pointed directly at Beiping, and many people who were inclined to Zhu Di couldn't help but feel worried.

And this is not over yet, the capital of Beiping, Daning, Prince Ning's Mansion, Zhu Quan heard that Zhu Di was rebellious, and the soldiers had already started fighting, and fell to the ground in shock.

"What? My fourth brother turned against my eldest nephew?"

The servants of Prince Ning's Mansion nodded.

Zhu Quan murmured in surprise: "It has to be my fourth brother. He is so fucking brave. He cuts off his head and flips the table if he disagrees. He is not used to my nephew at all. He is a role model for me. A role model."

The subject was a little speechless and Zhu Quan was so funny, he couldn't help reminding him again: "Your Highness, should we discuss how to proceed now?"

Zhu Quan babbled twice, as if he was still thinking about Zhu Di's rebellion, and he didn't come back to his senses until the subject asked again.

He thought for a while and asked, "What's the court's reaction?"

"No news has come yet, but news will come soon."

Zhu Quan nodded, and suddenly thought of some generals in his northern capital, and said, "Our Daning capital commander Bu Wan, what's the situation with Chen Heng and the others?"

Although his fief is in Daning, the army he can control is his Yingzhou Three Guards, and the Beiping capital is also the Daning capital. The other guards are the same as the Beiping capital, and they are all controlled by the capital. Naturally, there is also a capital commander arranged by the imperial court.

In the later period of Hongwu, they were able to control the Dusi. It was Zhu Yuanzhang who was cleaning up the generals in the army. He only believed in his sons, so he delegated power to his sons. .

The subordinates had already collected the actions of the Dusi, and said: "According to the news, Bu Wan is mobilizing soldiers and intends to send troops to Songting Pass to attack Zunhua."

Speaking of this, the subject struggled for a while, and suggested: "Your Highness, let's not talk about the reaction of the court. Song Zhong from Huailai entered Juyongguan, Geng Xuan from Shanhaiguan attacked Yongping, and our Daning's Bu Wan came out of Song Dynasty. Tingguan, as far as the three parties are concerned, the King of Yan is not easy to resist, not to mention that the imperial court will definitely send troops to Xiong County, from the south to the top, if we ignore this matter, the imperial court may blame His Highness afterwards, so Your Highness still needs to consider whether to send troops to help Bu Wan, or just condemn King Yan, His Highness needs to make a decision as soon as possible."

Zhu Quan lowered his eyes and fell into deep thought.

Can you only help the eldest nephew?
No, even if you don't help Zhu Laosi, you must not help Zhu Yunqi.

There seemed to be a wind blowing in the palace, and there was also the faint sound of fighting in iron clothes.

a long time.

Zhu Quan opened his eyes and looked at his subordinates. He shook his head firmly: "Do nothing now, just wait and see."

He stood up and looked in the direction of Beiping. The fourth son has stayed in Peiping for so many years. If the fourth son can't resist the imperial court, then he will stop struggling after the fourth son's downfall and take the initiative to go to the capital to be good to his eldest nephew. But if the fourth child blocks it, he can also take advantage of the momentum to rectify Daning, and then with a hundred thousand troops in his hand, he can also plot the original land.

He is also a descendant of the royal family, and someone like Zhu Yunqi can be the emperor, so why can't Zhu Quan be the emperor.

The subordinates didn't understand Zhu Quan's arrangement, so Zhu Quan's expression was firm and he didn't want to say much.

……

Just when the clouds are moving, it seems that the wind from all over the world is blowing towards Beiping City, and Beiping seems to be just a small sailboat on the vast sea. No one thinks that capsizing is only a matter of time, the difference is only how long Zhu Di can hold on .

Liaodong soldiers leave Shanhaiguan, Daning soldiers leave Songting Pass, Song Zhong Juhuailai will definitely send troops to Juyongguan, and the imperial army marches in parallel. In such a situation, Zhu Di in Beiping is like a teddy dog, surrounded by several golden retrievers, Erha, Samoyed and other big and big people surrounded it, watching the Teddy dog ​​jump and bark.

However, at this time, the generals in Beiping had no time and no intention to care about this. Zhen Wu had already entered Miyun territory with [-] cavalry.

He dispatched scouts widely, set up many military flags, and bluffed to prevent Miyun soldiers from finding out his real strength.

And Miyunwei commanded the yamen.

Zheng Heng was listening to the report from the people under his banner: "Zhen Wu's soldiers and horses have passed Huairou County. Judging from the opponent's scouts, the strength of the troops may not be less than [-]. I ask Commander Zheng to show me how to stop the enemy."

"Stop the enemy?"

Zheng Heng frowned. Instead of answering the question, he picked up the letter that King Yan had issued to the army and civilians in Beiping and scattered around the counties.

He glanced at the generals in the hall and asked: "Have everyone read this? There are treacherous officials in the court who want to kill the King of Yan, and the King of Yan has raised troops to calm the situation. Where should we go? Let's discuss it."

After looking at each other in blank dismay, all the generals in the hall lowered their heads, and no one wanted to speak up.

Seeing the reaction of the generals, Zheng Heng felt amused. He thought for a while, and said again: "Okay, let me ask another question. Now that Zhen Wu is attacking with five thousand soldiers, who will stop the enemy? I I won’t let you fight poorly, but gather 8000 people for you, who will go?”

Still no one spoke.

Who dares to talk about it? Everyone in Miyun knew Zhen Wu relatively early. Some of them fought with Zhen Wu in Gubeikou in the early years. At that time, Zhen Wu was only a hundred households. There are thousands of people, even the soldiers are left behind, they don't care about it, they have to kill the generals, it is really a mess, and later they are dispatched to fight, and they often have contacts with Zhen Wu, and they are even more aware of Zhen Wu's bravery well aware.

And this dog day is so courageous, he is so damn daring.

Not to mention anything else, just saying that Zhen Wu leads thousands of people, he often dares to attack camps with several times his own troops. scattered.

With such a record, who would dare to fight Zhen Wu.

What's more, Zhen Wu brought 5000 people this time.

5000 people.

Take 8000 people and Zhen Wu's 5000 people to fight, you are out of your mind.

I'm afraid it won't be long before Zhen Wu rushes over and chops him down with a knife.

Speaking of which, many people present have a good relationship with Zhen Wu. They used to drink a lot. Some people often went to see Zhen Wu when they went to Beijing. At that time, everyone was glad that Zhen Wu was one of their own. Some get flustered.

But if there is friendship, there is friendship. Whoever talks about friendship on the battlefield can't rely on friendship to say to Zhen Wu after a fight, don't raise fish, the mother will cut it thoroughly.

Thinking of this, everyone present flinched a little.

Zheng Heng became angry, and pointed directly at the next person in the hall, "Old Li, why don't you go?"

When Lao Li heard Zheng Heng point him, he raised his head reflexively and shook his head violently: "Commander Zheng, it's not that I'm trying to shirk, I just don't feel well recently, why don't I let Lao Gu go? Let him be the bravest among us, let him fight Zhen Wu."

Before Zheng Heng could speak, Old Gu jumped up at the side: "Hey, I said Lao Li, what do you mean by that, you are not feeling well, so am I? Can't you pick someone who is healthy?"

"Then who do you say will go?"

"I think Lao Yun can do it."

Lao Yun also jumped up: "Hey, you two are not cowardly, dare not dare, why pretend to be unwell, what should I do if this makes me really uncomfortable? It seems that I am fake, okay?"

All the generals looked at Lao Yun. Lao Yun was held back for a moment, but the next moment he stuck his neck and said with his hands on his hips, "What? Is what I said unreasonable?"

Okay, okay, whoever is shameless is invincible.

Zheng Heng really laughed angrily at this time, he got up and walked out from behind the table, cursing and swearing as he walked: "This is a damn thing, you don't want to express your opinion, I will express your opinion, let's not talk about Lao Tzu and Zhen Wu is almost a good friend of the whole family, just saying that Lao Tzu has listened to King Yan's orders for most of his life in Miyun, so it doesn't make sense to sell his life for others. The year winds come and go, and there is a knife hanging on the head, I can't care so much whether it is death or life, the worst is death, so the love of the general for so many years is not in vain."

Having said that, Zheng Heng glanced at everyone: "Everyone has heard what I mean, those who are willing to follow me to follow the King of Yan should stand upright, and everyone will go to vote for the King of Yan together later, if not, I will also Don’t make it difficult, you disperse on your own, whether you go south or go north, don’t force me to be ruthless, Miyun Gubeikou, I will definitely hold it in my hands, now you express your opinion.”

After Zheng Heng finished speaking, he returned to his seat and sat down again, looking at everyone coldly.

For a long time, no one moved.

"Since no one is leaving, I'll let you think about it. If you have second thoughts in the future, don't blame me, Zheng Heng, for not talking about the love of robes for many years. Now everyone is going to prepare for military affairs and prepare the soldiers mentally. Me, go see The county magistrate's gang will be dealt with if they don't obey, and when Zhen Wu arrives in Miyun, all of you and I will raise the city and surrender the king of Yan." Zheng Heng said.

All the generals bowed down and said yes, and dispersed one by one.

The Miyun area immediately began to rectify. There were two or three people who did not want to follow King Yan, but their number was too small, and because of their past friendship, no one disturbed them. They just left the city secretly. I care about it, just say that everyone has his own ambitions, and then continue to rectify the military.

Under such circumstances, the Miyun area soon gathered unprecedentedly, intending to surrender to King Yan.

When Zhen Wu led the army to the city of Miyun County, Zheng Heng and the people were already waiting for Zhen Wu at the city.

When Zhen Wu saw this situation, his heart was filled with elation. He had been thinking about how to persuade Zheng Heng to surrender, but it was obviously unnecessary now.

"Old Zheng, who is this?" Zhen Wu asked in disbelief with a few soldiers approaching behind him.

Zheng Heng said with a smile: "Accident or not?"

"Accident."

Zhen Wu nodded, without further hesitation, he laughed loudly, and finally said: "But I am even more happy, so that we can all fight side by side again."

After saying this, Zheng Heng and the other generals under him also laughed heartily. After all, it is definitely a beautiful thing to enjoy to fight side by side with a titan.

Tan Yuan, Wang Zhen, and Zhang Wu also brought their personal guards over at this time, and greeted Zheng Heng and others happily when they saw this.

Everyone is in the Beiping military circle, even if they don't have a deep friendship, they know each other, not to mention that Tan Yuan and others are also quite familiar with Mi Yun and others because of Zhen Wu.

For a while, everyone chatted cordially.

At this time, Zheng Heng invited Zhen Wu to eat at the restaurant in the city, saying that it was already prepared, Zhen Wu did not shirk, and after ordering his army to cook and rest outside the city, he took some people to follow Zheng Heng to the city .

Zhen Wu's magnanimity aroused Zheng Heng's novelty, and he asked in bewilderment, "Aren't you afraid of me ambush in the city? You know, without you, I don't care about three or five thousand soldiers."

Zhen Wu glanced sideways at Zheng Heng, and said: "I still understand your old Zheng's temperament, and you can't play with these fancy intestines. Besides, if you don't even have this trust, how can everyone fight side by side in the future, how can you obey Tianjing?" Disaster?!"

Zheng Heng nodded with a smile and said: "I, Zheng Heng, just obey you. I have never been afraid of this word in my temper."

The crowd laughed again.

Then everyone came to the largest restaurant in Miyun County.

During the meal, Zheng Heng planned to serve wine, but was stopped by Zhen Wu, who shook his head and said, "To tell you the truth, I still want to drive to Juyongguan in the starry night, and fight with His Highness inside and outside, and take Juyongguan, if it takes a long time Now, Song Zhongding will send people to guard Juyongguan, and it will be difficult to handle at that time."

Having said that, Zhen Wu saw that everyone was looking at him, he thought for a while, and stood up from his seat.

"Everyone, I, Zhen Wu, have something to say today, so I will tell everyone what is in my heart. It is difficult for His Royal Highness King Yan to raise troops to calm down, but the imperial court will definitely send troops to attack. This situation is not difficult. I will not hide it. , I believe everyone will be aware of it soon, but to be honest with everyone, I believe everyone knows what His Highness is like these years, he is not a stingy person, and many people should have received His Highness's favor."

"So, everyone might as well think about it boldly. If one day I break into Nanjing City, what kind of rewards will everyone get at that time? Everyone, think as boldly as you can." Zhen Wu's eyes were on the crowd. Turn around.

Many people followed Zhen Wu's train of thought, thought boldly, and then jumped in shock, but the shock turned into shock, and soon everyone's eyes lit up.

If there is a day when he invades Nanjing City, Zhu Di will not be the emperor, and everyone here will not agree.

In this case, aren't they the founding heroes!
Then these people don't talk about being knighted, and their positions and remuneration have to go up several levels.

At this time, Zhen Wu's voice sounded again: "The situation is indeed difficult, but the rewards are obviously very generous. This kind of opportunity is rare in a hundred years. Why don't we, as warriors, fight? Once we win the fight, hundreds of years from now, future generations will be able to fight. Benefit from my decision at this moment, even if I lose, I will die at most, and I will exchange my life for future generations with infinite blessings. Those who fight on the battlefield, who would be afraid of death!"

Zheng Heng's eyes lit up, and he said: "If you can do it, you can't do it."

Zhen Wu smiled and continued: "So, this time is only for ourselves, and we need to work together to overcome difficulties. Once we work together, I believe we will definitely be able to enter Nanjing City. I also ask everyone to do it for the future." Prosperity and wealth, and I will never give up and fight endlessly."

All the people present were excited by Zhen Wu's words, shouting that they would definitely not be distracted.

Zheng Heng even said directly: "In this way, I will bring thousands of soldiers and horses to Juyongguan with you, and together with His Highness, he will destroy Song Zhong."

After hearing this, Zhen Wu was a little moved, but the next moment he shook his head and suggested: "You can go, but who will guard Miyun? And you can't bring too many soldiers. Based on my understanding of Miyun, you can at most We can only mobilize two thousand cavalry, and if there are too many clouds, it will be unstable."

After thinking for a while, Zheng Heng nodded and said: "Okay, then I will send 2000 people to go with you. As for Miyun..." Zheng Heng looked at the rest of the generals, and finally chose the old man who had the best relationship with Zhen Wu. Li: "After I leave, Lao Li will take charge of Miyun's affairs and keep Miyun safe."

This is also a show of loyalty.

Zhen Wu understood.

The rest of the people also all understood.

……

While they were eating, Zhu Di fell into a stalemate here.

After he led his troops to Juyongguan, he began to attack fiercely, but after he came to Juyongguan, he rectified his soldiers and practiced strict defense. Not only was it difficult to defeat him for a while, but he practiced while fighting, which brought out his tenacity. .

This made Zhu Di worry that he couldn't eat anymore. If the delay was too long, after Song Zhong led the troops to increase the number of troops in Juyongguan, he would always have to worry about going north, and he would not be able to deal with the imperial soldiers wholeheartedly.

How can this motherfucker be quiet.

Zhu Di didn't expect that he would fall into a difficult situation just at the beginning, but Juyong Pass was already strong and steep, so he really had nothing to do for a while.

It's also fortunate that Song Zhong's skills are sloppy. When he first heard that they were in control of Beiping, he was frightened by them and retreated. He didn't even dare to look at Juyongguan. There are only a few thousand defenders of Juyongguan and some soldiers called temporarily.

Moreover, Huailai, where Song Zhong retreated, was not too close to Juyongguan, which also gave him time to take Juyongguan.

But this time is not long. He must have sent troops to Huailai to inform Song Zhong. After Song Zhong got the news, let alone 3 people from Song Zhong, even if only 5000 people came to stick to Juyongguan, he would completely no temper.

Zhu Di sighed, and couldn't help but look in the direction of Miyun.

There is still his last hope, Zhen Wu.

I hope Zhen Wu can create some miracles and appear in Juyongguan as soon as possible.

But Zhu Di thought about it seriously, Zhen Wu only has 2000 people, so it is really embarrassing for Zhen Wu, unless Zheng Heng of Miyun directly surrenders him, otherwise Zhen Wu wants to hurry over, I am afraid that the chance is not great.

Zhu Di couldn't help but sighed again.

Worryingly, he frowned tightly and couldn't let go at all. He couldn't help thinking, how beautiful it would be if a magic soldier descended from the sky at this time.

　Thank you for the 500 tip from 'I have no deposit', thank you boss.
