Father can be an enemy country

Chapter 794
Tangshan, inside the central guard camp of the Fu army.

The heavy rain stopped at dawn and did not delay the rising of the sun.

The sky is blue and cloudless, the morning light is bright and soft, and the mountains and forests are washed green. If it weren't for the faint smell of blood floating in the air, who could connect this picturesque scenery with the killings last night?
Zhu Di quickly walked into the camp and came to the heavily guarded Chinese army tent.

Liu Ying, the gatekeeper, quickly opened the door curtain and whispered: "The Emperor has been waiting for His Highness for a long time."

Zhu Di nodded and walked into the tent, where he saw Boss Zhu and the prince having breakfast.

"Father."

"Yeah." Boss Zhu nodded and swirled the rice into his mouth.

"Sit down and eat together." The prince quickly asked someone to bring him a stool.

The fourth child sat down and finished the meal with his father. Boss Zhu picked up the handkerchief and wiped his mouth and said, "How was it?"

"Go back to my father, the fight against the rebellion is over." Zhu Di quickly put down his bowl and reported back: "All [-] rebels have been arrested. On the rear guard of the government, Mao Xiang and his comrades have also been captured. Er Chen Temporarily disarmed the guards of the government army, prohibited them from leaving the camp, and first ordered the other two guards to keep a close watch."

"Nonsense." Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head and said: "Mao Xiang is Mao Xiang, and the Fu army rear guard is the Fu army rear guard. Don't get confused."

"Yes." Zhu Di nodded honestly.He is very honest in front of the old man, not as explosive as Lao Liu.

"Boss, please go over there later and comfort them." Zhu Yuanzhang would naturally not give this kind of good thing to win people's hearts to others.He looked at the fourth child again and said:
"Remember, if you can trust the people who protect you, be tolerant. If you can't trust them, transfer them away. Don't let them feel resentful. That's just kidding with your own life."

"My son, please remember your father's teachings." The fourth child hurriedly respectfully accepted the teachings.

"What are our losses?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked again.

"More than a dozen with minor injuries, no serious injuries or casualties." Lao Si said with a slightly raised voice.

"That's pretty much it." Zhu Yuanzhang nodded with satisfaction and said, "If he would die in such a battle, we would have to consider whether we should give his family pension."

"Yes, my father knew that the enemy had an opportunity and asked you to enter the urn. Our army is waiting for work. The arms are incompatible with each other. It would be strange to have casualties." Zhu Di hurriedly agreed, looking like a little bitch.

"Let's just say, there is no need to hide here, just stay in the palace. The louder the shouts of death outside, the better we sleep." Boss Zhu complained to the prince:

"It makes people think that we are afraid of them."

"Isn't this just in case?" The prince said helplessly: "The son of a rich man cannot sit down in the hall, let alone the father who has a body of ten thousand gold?"

"There is no such thing as a chance," Boss Zhu shook his head decisively and said, "Hu Weiyong, even if he rebels ten thousand times, he will not succeed even once."

"What about the prisoners? Have you caught any big fish?" he asked the fourth child again.

"This..." The fourth child, who had been a little proud just now, suddenly became discouraged and said: "There are no big fish. Their leader is called Liu Yubao, who was the former general of the Marquis of Ji'an. He was promoted to the commander of the Qingzhou Guard through meritorious deeds. Later, he committed an offense. , was exiled from the army and sent to Guangxi, why did he come back? And he became the leader of the rebels."

"Investigate this Liu Yubao carefully. Someone must be covering him up. The person who is covering up him is probably the one who instigated him to cause rebellion." Zhu Yuanzhang said solemnly.

"Yes, but Liu Yubao has committed suicide." Lao Si whispered hurriedly. "I didn't tell you earlier." Boss Zhu rolled his eyes at him.

"Where are the survivors?"

"Then there is a man named Lin Ping, the son of Lin Xian, the commander of the Ningbo Guard." Lao Si hurriedly said: "Originally he wanted to commit suicide, but his men held him back. They put all the blame on his father and son. , saying that he was just following orders and had no idea that he was here to rebel."

"They will definitely say so." Zhu Yuanzhang snorted: "Then we will not spare anyone, as a warning to others. Unless someone can provide valuable intelligence."

"Yes." Lao Si nodded and continued: "In addition to the five hundred Japanese pirates, the five hundred Ningbo Guard rebels, there are also the remnants of the Fang Chen pirates, and some dead soldiers who refuse to reveal their origins."

"How do you know they are dead soldiers?"

"Because most of them are dead..." Zhu Di couldn't help but smile bitterly: "In the battle last night, we only killed some of them, and some of them committed suicide directly when they saw that they were desperate and unwilling to be prisoners."

This is not a glorious thing, largely because of his notoriety.Last night he heard a prisoner shouting something, "I would rather see the King of Hell than the King of Yan."

"What did Lin Ping say?" the prince asked.

"That kid doesn't know much. He only knows that his father is a member of Hu Weiyong. When he was protecting pirates for smuggling, he got in touch with that...Prince Huailiang of the Southern Dynasty of Japan." Zhu Di said solemnly:

"Later, under the attack of Laoliu City's shipping fleet, smuggling was discontinued. But he has always been in contact with Prince Huai Liang, and there are smugglers who stayed in Japan and became guests in the Southern Dynasties."

"At the end of last year, Hu Weiyong suddenly ordered Lin Xian to contact Huai Liang and borrow troops from them. After the promise is fulfilled, troops will be sent to help Huai Liang resist the Northern Dynasty..."

"Prince Huai Liang? This name sounds so familiar..." Boss Zhu, who was [-]% vindictive, suddenly interjected: "The Japanese king who killed our envoy back then was named Huai Liang?"

What he was talking about was that in March of the second year of Hongwu, as soon as the Ming Dynasty was established, Yang Zai and others were sent as envoys to Japan to deliver credentials and declare the founding of the Ming Dynasty.He also ordered him to "come to the court if it is appropriate for him to go to court, but if not, he will repair his troops and consolidate himself."If he is bound to be a bandit, he will order the general to conquer him and the king will take action.'

Ask the Japanese king to come to court as soon as possible if he wants to surrender.If they insist on being Japanese pirates and harassing China, Ming Dynasty will definitely send generals to conquer them.

The mission landed on Kyushu Island, and after explaining their intention, they were sent to meet Huai Liang, the general of the Southern Dynasties who conquered the west.Prince Huai Liang was furious after seeing the credentials. Instead of surrendering, he killed five people in the envoy and detained Yang Zai for three months before releasing him.Japanese pirates also continued to harass us.

Zhu Yuanzhang was furious after receiving the news, and once decided to send troops across the sea to attack Japan. However, the situation at sea was complicated. At that time, Fang Guozhen and Chen Youding's navy was powerful. In view of the lessons of the Yuan Dynasty's two disastrous defeats in Japan.Liu Bowen and others believed that the risks of large-scale invasion of Japan were too high and the returns were too low.So I tried my best to dissuade him.

In addition, Prince Huailiang also sent envoys to the court to plead guilty in the name of the King of Japan. Boss Zhu temporarily gave up the idea of ​​attacking Japan and concentrated on solving internal and external troubles first.

But Zhu Yuanzhang never forgot the shame of the envoy being killed, so when the fourth brother mentioned Prince Huai Liang, he immediately remembered it.

"It's just one person." The prince replied: "Lao Liu has already figured it out. Japan is now divided into Southern and Northern Dynasties, each with a so-called emperor, but they are all puppets, and the generals are involved in politics. Prince Huai Liang is the Zhengxi of the Southern Dynasties. General, his intention to lie about the Japanese king was to avoid the so-called embarrassing situation of the emperor surrendering to the Ming Dynasty. It may also be his own personal ambition..."

"Hmph!" Boss Zhu snorted: "They are deceitful, cunning and cruel. The Japanese slaves are so despicable. This time they actually dare to openly send troops to assassinate us!"

As he spoke, he slammed the table and shouted angrily: "Even if you are far away, you will be killed!"
