Traveling through the heavens from the prequel of the Lotus Lantern

Chapter 833: Cutting out a gap of more than a thousand feet with one sword? All three thousand troops gathered in Mobei?

Yu Qian resisted the weird thoughts in his heart and said:

"His Royal Highness is not as popular as what is popular in the market."

Yang Jiao answered directly:

"So violent and savage? Or is he an incompetent person who only looks good but relies on his wife to make a living by making wine?"

He patted Yu Qian on the shoulder:

"To be honest, I never take these words seriously. Fame is like a cloud to me. After all, only those who can't think about it are willing to do the hard work of getting up earlier than a chicken and going to bed later than a dog. Do it.”

As soon as these words came out, the people in the tent looked slightly moved, understanding that he was secretly responding to his previous words to sow discord.

"Zhan He, don't be so stupid here." After hearing this, Zhu Gaoxu roared carelessly. "

"Okay, hurry up and let people serve the food. After dinner, there are still other things to do." After Zhu Di took a deep look at Yu Qian, he ordered him to leave.

Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui immediately ordered people to serve meals.

One month later, in March of the 20th year of Yongle, Zhu Di personally conquered the Tatars, and his main force arrived at Jiming Mountain southeast of Xuanfu. Arutai learned that the Ming army was attacking and fled Xinghe at night, avoiding fighting.

In July, the Ming army arrived at Shahuyuan and captured the Tatar subordinates. When they learned that Arutai had escaped, Zhu Di had to issue an order to stop the pursuit and return to the army.

Chinese army camp.

Zhu Di sat on the main seat with a deep expression, and Zhu Gaoxu and others sat in their seats, all in silence. They all knew that the person above was feeling aggrieved because he had returned from the Northern Expedition without success.

At this moment, Zhu Di suddenly spoke:

"Second brother, your boy has disappeared outside the customs for more than a month with the three thousand guards from your Hanwang Palace. Didn't he send anyone back?"

Zhu Gaoxu's expression froze and he smiled:

"Dad, this is really not the case. I said before that I was going to bring 3,000 troops to share the emperor's worries and look for traces of Arutai. But the result is good, no one has been sent back to spread the news."

Zhu Di raised his eyelids:

"Are you so relieved? Didn't you send someone out to look for it?"

When Zhu Gaoxu heard this, he couldn't help but thought:

"That's because you don't know how skilled he is. One of the three thousand guards is as good as ten, and one is as good as a hundred martial arts masters. There is no need for me to worry about him."

Although he thought so in his heart, he said:

"I have sent several teams of scouts to investigate. If we find out anything, we will come back and report immediately."

After saying that, a soldier walked in quickly.

"Your Majesty, a scout has returned to the camp and said that he has found traces of His Highness the Crown Prince. He also said that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has not only captured all the three main forces of the Tatar, Wala, and Ulangha tribes that were divided by the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty, but also captured Yili. Also capture it together and collect all the land in Mobei."

These words instantly caused an uproar in the Chinese army camp.

"Go call the scouts in."

"Yes."

After a while, a young man walked in. After saluting, he was questioned by Zhu Di:

"But lying about military information is a capital crime?"

The young man looked respectful:

"We were sent out by the King of Han to inquire about the whereabouts of His Highness the Crown Prince. We searched all the way and finally found traces of His Highness the Crown Prince near the Wuliangha tribe. We happened to see the scene where His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came to the world like a god and suppressed the Wuliangha tribe. .”

His eyes were full of enthusiasm:

"With one swing of the sword, a gap of more than a thousand feet was cut in front of the two armies. With a twist of the sword, the great Khan of the Uliangha tribe died. The army collapsed without a fight, and they all knelt down and begged for surrender."

"And at that time, the Prince's Palace not only had 3,000 personal guards, but also a slave army of 50,000 Tatars, Walas, and Yili."

"Now His Royal Highness is integrating the main forces of the Ulyanha tribe into the servant army. He will return to the camp in ten days to meet with His Majesty." These words made everyone in the camp look stunned. , it’s really appalling.

Immediately, Zhu Gaosui said in disbelief:

"One sword cut a gap of more than a thousand feet? All three thousand troops were gathered in Mobei?"

He paused slightly and said sternly:

"How many brains do you have, how dare you speak nonsense in front of the emperor? Is this something a human can do?"

The young man replied respectfully:

"Because of this, people such as Tatar, Wala, Ulyanha and others now regard His Royal Highness as the incarnation of the Immortal Heaven and worship him as a god."

"I heard from the Tatars of the slave army that when His Royal Highness stood alone in front of the Tatar army, he glared Arutai to death with just one look, and then used his own momentum to suppress all the Tatars. Even the horses are different."

The more everyone listened, the more outrageous they felt. Zhu Di's eyes flashed and he looked down at Zhu Gaoxu, who was full of excitement and no surprise at all:

"Tell me, what other things have you hidden from the old man over the years?"

Zhu Gaoxu said quickly:

"Dad, what are you talking about? How dare your son hide anything from you? But you also know that Zhan He is as martial as me."

"So, maybe it's because of his good talent and understanding, but somehow, the more he practiced, the better he became. To this day, I never expected that he could actually practice such martial arts."

Zhu Gaosui stared at the boss and said loudly:

"Second brother, you've trained like a god. Do you call this awesome?"

Zhu Gaoxu waved his hand:

"Not worth mentioning, he is just a warrior who is an enemy of ten thousand people."

At this moment, Zhu Zhanji's expression was indescribably pale. He calmed down and couldn't help but ask:

"Second Uncle, I wonder if you have ever practiced Zhan He's martial arts training method?"

Seeing that Zhu Gaoxu could no longer hide it, he said openly:

"I have learned a thing or two from this guy. I have to say that it is a magical secret. I am already in my forties, and my body and bones have become stronger and my strength has greatly increased. With a flick of one arm, I can exert two thousand giants of strength. , can easily defeat the previous ten me."

Everyone's expressions changed slightly. The King of Han's bravery in winning the three armies was not just a boast, but a real battle on the battlefield.

If what the King of Han said is true, then what the scouts said just now is probably true.

After Zhu Di heard this, he immediately guessed that the method of martial arts training was probably the deepest secret hidden by his second son.

Ten days later, when Yang Jiao returned to the place where the Ming army was stationed with millions of cattle, sheep, horses and camels, everyone was finally stunned and completely believed it.

In Zhu Di's tent, Yang Jiao talked with him for two or three hours, and then he named the crown prince of the Han Dynasty the King of Yan, and led the people of Mobei to annex other countries and expand the territory of the Ming Dynasty.

When Zhu Di returned to the capital, the following year, various new types of muskets and cannons appeared in the army, trains were also built, and railroad tracks were laid using slaves who were constantly brought back from outside the customs.

In May of the 23rd year of Yongle, Prince Zhu Gaochi fell seriously ill and died a few days later.

His death did not add a trace of gloom to the Ming Dynasty. As the King of Yan, Zhu Zhanhe successively conquered Goguryeo, Wo Island, Ryukyu and Little Ryukyu, Annan, Champa, Chenla, Siam, Sumatra, Kuala Lumpur, etc. Wow, Huanheng, Baihua, Srivijaya, Boni, and Xiyangxuli were included in the territory of the Ming Dynasty.

At the end of January, the 33rd year of Yongle, the grandson Zhu Zhanji died of illness in the East Palace. In early February, the fifty-five-year-old Zhu Gaoxu finally took the throne of the prince he had longed for.

In May, Zhu Di fell seriously ill and summoned King Yan, who was still fighting in Nanyang, to return to the capital. Three days after King Yan returned to the capital, the seventy-five-year-old Zhu Di died in Qianqing Palace.
