Daming heir

Chapter 284

Under the constant bombardment of Ming army artillery.

Even though the city wall of Daluo City was two and a half feet high, the gate tower and the section of the city wall behind the city gate hole were bombed down, and finally couldn't hold it anymore and fell to the ground with a bang.

The entire southern city wall was thus cut into two sections.

The original gate of the city has become a masonry site with a slope.

The cavalry of the Ming army gathered outside the city long ago.

Under the command of a general with a black-faced armor, the horses trampled on the ground, and the thunder rolled like a huge wave smashing against the collapsed city wall.

Da Luo City has already been broken.

There was no possibility of salvation at all, and with the collapse of the city gate, this established the failure of the defenders of Daluo City and the victory of the Ming army.

Thousands of cavalry, led by General Heijia, rushed towards the city wall and the ruins like arrows flying off the string.

"After the army enters the city, search and arrest Chen Yuandan, and kill anyone who obstructs him."

The cavalry general who rushed up to the ruins of the city wall finally lifted off the mask on his face, revealing the face of Zhu Shangbing, the son of King Qin of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Shangbing's face was covered with blood, and he looked at the north wall of Daluo City, which was also in flames.

The fighting over there is more intense.

In the darkness of night, black dots kept falling from the city wall inside and outside the city wall.

The countless buildings with thick walls were all soaked in the sea of ​​flames.

Mars, like stars and fireflies, continuously climbs and circles in the night sky.

Zhu Shangbing, who was on the side of the imperial horse, watched the cavalry behind him rushing down the city from the waste, and said loudly again: "The army must not harass the people of Daluo City, and it is not allowed to trespass on the houses. Directly attack the government offices in Daluo City , the palace, the storehouse.”

After issuing the last order.

Zhu Shangbing gritted his teeth and looked at the city wall on one side.

"Step aside!"

A roar.

Separate the cavalry in front of him.

Zhu Shangbing drove the horse under him and rushed towards the city wall with a gap in height.

War horse Benz.

The neighing continued.

Zhu Shangbing held the reins tightly and raised the horse's head heavily.

The horse's front hooves volleyed in the air, and its rear hooves stomped heavily.

Under the moonlight.

The horses hang in the air, and the generals on the horses are like mountains.

In an instant, the horse had already stepped onto the city wall.

On the horse's back, Zhu Shangbing also had the bumps of the horse, and swooped down from the horse's back to the city wall.

The horse behind him fell heavily to the ground.

Zhu Shangbing held a long knife and rolled on the ground several times before finally stopping his figure.

Before he could catch his breath, there was already a roar of defenders around him.

Zhu Shangbing squatted down, waving the long knife in front of him continuously.

A guard officer and soldier with a broken leg fell to the ground.

"It's the prince!"

"Go over!"

On the city wall, officers and soldiers of the Ming army who occupied a section of the city wall found Zhu Shangbing rushing up the city wall, and immediately shouted loudly.

Zhu Shangbing killed all the enemy soldiers in front of him, and then turned around to make amends to the surviving defenders who fell to the ground with broken legs.

Every knife was aimed at the neck and wiped away.

After doing this, the officers and soldiers of the Ming army who climbed the city wall closest to Zhu Shangbing also killed them.

"My lord, it turned out to be you!"

Who would have thought that Qin Shizi would be able to charge his horse from the ruins of the collapsed city wall to the city wall. ....
Zhu Shangbing didn't have time to talk, he patted the shoulders of the officers and soldiers in front of him: "Where's the grandson?"

The officers and soldiers looked left and right, and then pointed forward.

"It should be in the front."

"Just now there was the sound of Taisun seizing the city and beheading the general."

Zhu Shangbing nodded, his eyes were ruthless, and he gritted his teeth: "I will kill you!"

…………

"Situ! We
Kill it! "

"That's right, Situ, Da Luo City can no longer be defended, let's kill it."

"As long as we kill them, we'll still be useful."

"Go out, return to the lord's side in the south, and drive out the female servant, Li Jiyao. We, Annan, can still be saved and have a way forward."

"Situ, if we don't leave now, we will never have a chance to recover Annan!"

In Da Luo City, in the royal palace that used to belong to Annan's glory, the palace where the lord Chen Yan was supposed to sit, now gathered a group of civil and military ministers who were left in Da Luo City.

There are no eunuchs and maids in the palace in the past.

These people have long been dragged by Li Jishou and taken to the south.

The supporting pillars covered with gold powder and skin were covered with knife marks.Even the former throne above the palace, which was entirely made of gold, was smelted and taken away by Li Jisha long ago.

But at this moment, in the palace, the Annan civil and military officials who were left behind in Daluo City were all surrounded by an old man with white hair and snow-white beard.

This old man stayed in Daluo City after Li Jiyao fled south with the lord of Annan, Chen Min, and entangled with the clan of the Chen Dynasty who left hundreds of officials, soldiers and civilians, the current Situ Chen Yuandan.

All his life, Chen Yuandan lived as the royal family of the Chen Dynasty.

He is a descendant of Chen Guangqi, Zhaoming King of Chen Dynasty, and was initially conferred the title of Marquis of Zhang Su Kingdom.

When Chen Yuzong died, Yang Rili succeeded him.Because he did not have the lineage of the clan of the Chen Dynasty, he was not accepted by the clan and the court.

Dazai Gongjing went to resist, was defeated and killed.

Chen Min, who was still King Gongding at that time, fled abroad and joined King Gongxuan and Chen Yuandan.

At that time, Chen Yuandan was questioned by many people who supported Chen Min's rebellion and regained the status of the royal family of the Chen Dynasty.

Later, Chen Yun overthrew Yang Rili and became the lord of the Annan Chen Dynasty. Chen Yuandan was named Situ for his meritorious service.

After decades of life, Chen Yuandan can be said to have dedicated his whole life to the Annan Chen Dynasty and to the clan.

At this moment, Chen Yuandan, who had gray hair all over his head and had not closed his eyes for several days because of the approach of the Ming army, was haggard and tired.But his bloodshot eyes were filled with the spirit of fighting light, and there were streaks of unknown light.

"Do you all think that I should have been killed?"

Chen Yuandan sighed softly, and asked the surrounding officials calmly.

However, his gaze was already looking outside the palace, and the entire Da Luo City was in flames.

"If you don't leave now, you won't be able to leave, Situ, until the Ming army has entered the city!"

"Dongcheng! The Ming army is now besieging the west city and attacking the north and south cities. Only the east city has no movement from the Ming army."

"If Situ is determined to leave, we can mobilize the army and fight out from the east city."

"As long as we leave the city, the world is vast, and it is impossible for the Ming army to catch up with all of us."...
"As long as we bypass Qinghua City and go to the south, and kill Li Jishou, we can continue to support the king and take back Daluo City!"

The officials surrounding Chen Yuandan have already revealed all their escape plans.

Chen Yuandan sneered, and turned his head to look at the high platform in the palace, where there was nothing left that belonged to the throne of the country.

Then, under the anxious eyes of everyone, Chen Yuandan walked towards the high platform step by step.

The soldiers are all in Situ's hands, and all the defenders in the east city are Situ's confidantes.

Seeing that Chen Yuandan was silent, everyone just wanted to go to the high platform. Even though their hearts were burning with anxiety, they had no choice but to accompany him and follow behind him to the high platform.

From the outside of the palace to the palace, from the outside of the palace to the palace, and to the king's presence, Chen Yuandan walked this path all his life.

He walked past Situ's seat and continued to walk towards the high platform.

first step.

the second……

The third……

Until, Chen Yuandan stood at the top of the empty platform.

Then, under everyone's gaze, Chen Yuandan faced the palace gate and slowly opened his arms.

What is he doing!
Is Situ going to be the lord of the country himself?

With the current situation in Da Luo City, how can he be allowed to be the king.

Seeing Chen Yuandan's actions, everyone had countless guesses in their hearts.

"You all want to escape, don't you?"

Chen Yuandan lowered his outstretched arms and calmly looked down at the officials under the high platform.

A look of embarrassment appeared on the faces of the officials.

They have been trying to get out of Da Luo City to cover up their real purpose of just wanting to escape from Da Luo City and the massacre by the Ming army.

However, now Chen Yuandan lifted the last cover.

Everyone blushed in embarrassment.

But there's also no way to explain their thoughts and purposes.

"If you don't leave now, you really have no chance to leave."

"There is a saying in the Ming Dynasty, if you keep the green hills, you won't have to worry about no firewood."

"As long as we are here, as long as Situ is here, as long as the city's elite are here, Annan still has hope!"

Chen Yuandan waved his hand and stopped the words of these people.

He silently looked at the officials in front of him.

Their rank is not high.

When Li Jishou coerced Chen Min into fleeing Da Luo City, all the slaves and followers in Da Luo City attached themselves to Li Jishou and went south, and all those who did not follow him were killed by him.

Now these officials in front of Chen Yuandan are all dispensable people.

Although they belong to Annan's powerful family.

Chen Yuandan let out a long sigh, feeling that all the strength in his body was being sucked away, and the mental head that had been holding him up in the past was also swept away in an instant.

He slowly supported his legs and sat on the high platform.

Slowly raising his head, the pale Chen Yuandan looked at the crowd: "Have you put away all the gold and silver in your family? Have all your children and family members been hidden?"

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help being overjoyed.

Situ was probably persuaded by them!
What's the matter with death.

As long as they are alive, as long as they are still alive, Annan still has hope.

These talents are the foundation of Annan!

Without Chen Yuandan's urging, everyone opened their mouths. ....
"It's all done!"

"The gold and silver and the family members have been sent to the military camp over there in the east city."

"As long as Situ gives an order to open the gate of the east city and order the guards of the east city to guard, we will definitely be able to kill it!"

They moved so fast.

Chen Yuandan looked at everyone with flickering eyes, and he fell silent again.

In his head, he thought of Qinghua City in the south.

These days, although he has been sitting in Daluo City, news from all over the world has been sent to him.

The people in Da Luo City were all scared away by that thief Li Jishou.

After the arrival of the Ming Dynasty, Chen Qiong, who was also a member of the clan and the lord of Qinghua City, directly surrendered with the city.Afterwards, the Ming army and Tsinghua City Qiu committed no crimes, and drove Chen Qiong to kill all the dignitaries and gentry in Tsinghua City and recall those who fled.

I heard that the people who returned from Qinghua City were allotted houses and fields.

It is even more heard that the Ming Dynasty system has been implemented in Qinghua City today, and prefectures and counties have been established.If those people of the right age who came back were not married, the officials of the Ming Dynasty in Qinghua Prefecture would choose spouses and designate marriages for those people.

Daming is so lucky.

How unfortunate is Annan!

Chen Yuandan sighed in his heart, and finally asked everyone: "When I leave, what will happen to the people in the city?"

Everyone was stunned.

It has nothing to do with the people if they go their way.

Do you still want to bring those people with you?

Someone spoke up on the spot, hoping that Situ could get rid of this idea from his heart.

"Situ, there are tens of thousands of people in the city. If we all bring them with us, our speed will definitely be delayed. Under such circumstances, it won't take long for the Ming army to catch up with us."

"The Ming army prides itself on being a benevolent and righteous army. Thinking about it, they just want to occupy Daluo City, and they probably won't kill the people in the city."

"Situ, let's go!"

"If you don't leave, it will be too late!"

Chen Yuandan smiled, and fixedly swept across the faces of everyone under the high stage.

At this time, there was already a roar of killing in Da Luo City.

You don't need to look to know that the Ming army has really entered Daluo City.

Everyone was burning with anxiety, anxiously waiting for Chen Yuandan's nod of agreement.

Chen Yuandan shook his head: "Wait a little longer! Wait a little longer..."

As he spoke, he looked over the crowd, looked outside the palace, and then slowly turned his head to look at the empty high platform.

Situ must leave!

Everyone under the high platform was determined in their hearts. Looking at Chen Yuandan's appearance, they only thought that this Situ was reluctant to abandon Da Luo City, and could not bear the city being ravaged by the Ming army.

It's just that after waiting for a long, long time, everyone didn't see Chen Yuandan before turning back.

As a result, anxiety and uneasiness continued to breed in the hearts of these people.

"Chen Yuandan!"

"Are you going..."

"boom!"

"The Ming army has come in!"

"The Ming army has entered the palace!"

"The Ming army has killed outside the palace!"

Outside the palace, there was a burst of fighting, accompanied by the sound of firecrackers from Ming army officers and soldiers.

In the hall, everyone's faces turned pale instantly.

"Situ!"

"Situ!"

"Please, let's go!"...
"You can still escape from the harem!"

"Situ didn't want to leave, so he handed over the soldier talisman and let us go..."

Everyone knelt on the ground, begging Chen Yuandan to let them go.

Chen Yuandan may have rested at this time, but he still stood up with some difficulty. He didn't look at the people kneeling under the high platform, but looked outside the gate of the hall where the smell of gunpowder smoke was already coming.

The white-haired old man had a smile on his face: "No...we don't have to go..."

not leaving?
Not waiting for everyone to react.

Chen Yuandan suddenly roared: "Come here! Cut down all the rebellious officials and thieves here!"

In response, the people who were still in a daze saw countless officers and soldiers pouring out from behind the high platform.

These are Chen Yuandan's personal soldiers and generals!

Not waiting for everyone to ask for mercy.

These personal soldiers and generals have already rushed forward, raising their swords like cutting melons, and slashing at these people here.

inside the palace.

The sounds of swinging knives and shouting came and went, which could not stop for a long time.

After a long, long time, when a fat Ming army general in armor appeared at the gate of the hall under the reflection of the fire outside, the killing in the hall was considered to be over.

Those officials who fell in a pool of blood in front of the high platform, unable to rest in peace until their death, couldn't figure out why Chen Yuandan pointed the butcher knife at them until the moment they died.

Zhu Gaochi, who was originally supervising the battle and firing outside the city, only remembered Zhu Yunxi's explanation at the moment the city was broken.

The ones who were in a hurry finally led the people into the city, and after thinking about it for a while, they continued to rush to the Annan Palace in Da Luo City.

It's just that when he rushed to the gate of the palace, he couldn't help being stunned when he saw the corpses scattered all over the place.

A Ming army officer and soldier rushed into the hall from Zhu Gaochi's side.

Before these Ming soldiers could issue a warning, those generals who belonged to Chen Yuandan had already put down their swords and lined up neatly to kneel aside.

"You guys are finally here."

On the high platform, Chen Yuandan finally looked down at the pool of blood.
former colleagues.

Then muttered in a low voice, and walked down the high platform.

His feet stepped on the blood of those people and walked towards the gate of the temple.

Zhu Gaochi frowned, narrowed his eyelids slightly, thought for a while, and finally took a step back to let passers-by.

After Chen Yuandan walked out of the hall, Zhu Gaochi tilted his head and glanced at the other party, then walked towards the platform in front of the hall.

Chen Yuandan followed suit.

The two stood on the edge of the platform, with the chaotic palace in front of them.

Outside the palace, there is Da Luo City, which is ablaze to the sky.

The sound of fighting is still going on one after another at this moment.

"It's not His Royal Highness the Emperor Taisun of Ming Dynasty, nor the founding father who came here." Chen Yuandan looked at the fat young general beside him and said with a smile.

Zhu Gaochi took two steps back, raised his arms and bowed in a bow, and then said: "This is Zhu Gaochi, the son of King Yan of the Ming Dynasty. His Royal Highness the Emperor Taisun of the Ming Dynasty is fighting on the south wall, and the general is also supervising the battle outside the north wall."

"Sir Yan..." Chen Yuandan let out a long sigh: "The grandson of the Ming Dynasty will definitely come to the battle in person, the general will oversee the battle, and the prince's son will go to the city to find the enemy. I, An Nanhe, should perish, and the Ming Dynasty should win every victory."...
Zhu Gaochi wrinkled the bridge of his nose: "The great-grandson and the general hope to see you. My grandpa, I also hope to have a talk with you in Yingtian City."

Chen Yuandan laughed.

Under Zhu Gaochi's puzzled eyes.

The old man reached out and patted Zhu Gaochi's shoulder, and then said with a smile, "There will be no more Annan in this world. I'm just an old man, why should I meet the great grandson of the Ming Dynasty, let alone go to the Great Ming Dynasty to meet the saint."

Something is wrong with this old man!
Zhu Gaochi was about to speak.

But Chen Yuandan had already pulled out a dagger from his sleeve.

Before he could react, he directly plunged into his heart.

"You are bold!"

Zhu Gaochi growled angrily, and then stretched out his hands to support Chen Yuandan, who was bleeding from the corner of his mouth.

But Chen Yuandan, who had a dagger in his heart, had completely lost all the strength in his body. He, who was already an octogenarian, could no longer hold on at this moment. Thanks to Zhu Gaochi's support, he was able to slowly face Da Luo outside the palace. Cheng knelt down.

Zhu Gaochi was about to go crazy, and he couldn't figure out why this person would do this.

But Chen Yuandan reached out and grabbed Zhu Gaochi's arm, and turned to look at him with blood dripping from the corner of his mouth: "Dongcheng Military Camp... Daluo City officials, rich, wealthy and small... are all here..."

Zhu Gaochi's eyes were blood red, and he glared at Chen Yuandan who had hanged himself: "What do you want to do!"

Chen Yuandan smiled slightly: "I only hope that Daming can treat my people in Annan and treat them equally with the people of the Central Plains.

I only hope that Daming can treat the people of Annan kindly, lighten the corvee, lighten the killing.

I only hope that Daming can be king in Annan, and that Annan will not be caught in the flames of war again. "

The old man's voice gradually became blurred and became unrecognizable.

Afterwards, Chen Yuandan's head drooped limply on his neck.

Zhu Gaochi let out a long sigh, and slowly let go of his hands.

However, Chen Yuandan's remains were still kneeling on the ground and never fell down.

Zhu Gaochi sighed again, looked at Chen Yuandan's corpse with flickering eyes, and bowed for a long time.

After he stood up again, he stared solemnly at Chen Yuandan's remains.

"After the public death, there will be no Annan in the world.".
