When the emperor comes to modern times, history collapses!
Chapter 277 Zhu Yuanzhang was convinced and would probably have to be his younger brother from now o
Yongle Zhu Di held the exquisite and advanced telescope in his hand, his eyes fixed on the fierce fighting on the battlefield ahead.
From the beginning of the war to the time when the allied forces of all dynasties broke through the city gates and poured into the city like a tide, the entire process took only a quarter of an hour!
However, Zhu Di did not show the slightest surprise on his face at such an astonishing development of the war situation.
You know, during this attack, the hundreds of powerful artillery pieces continuously emitted deafening roars, and the fierce artillery fire ruthlessly bombarded the city walls and towers, and the Yuan army soldiers defending the city were already frightened to death. Even the generals in charge of commanding the battle were instantly turned into countless pieces under this terrifying bombardment.
Coupled with the powerful fire suppression of their own side, the trucks tightly wrapped in solid iron sheets entered the city gate unhindered like steel behemoths. Faced with such indestructible equipment, the arrows shot by the Yuan army were like ants trying to shake a tree, and could not penetrate at all.
Yongle Zhu Di was accompanied by several loyal guards, who rode on fine horses and galloped towards the Red Turban Army's camp at lightning speed.
At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang had not yet recovered from his shock.
Only after listening to the soldiers' reports did I come to my senses.
He frowned, his mind full of doubts, and had no idea what the visitor was doing.
They asked someone to let them pass, and everyone watched quietly as Zhu Di and his entourage gradually approached them.
When the two sides were closer, Zhu Yuanzhang laughed heartily and said, "General Zhu, what are you doing here?"
Yongle Zhu Di laughed and said, "Oh, why call me General? That's too polite! To be honest, I feel very close to you all! We all have the same goal - to overthrow the corrupt and brutal Yuan Dynasty. Since we share the same ideals, why don't we call each other brothers? I'm a little older, so you can just call me Brother Zhu."
After hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang and others couldn't help but secretly complain in their hearts: He is really the same as the previous Marshal Zhu, both of them are very outgoing!
In a short quarter of an hour that seemed like the blink of an eye, the seemingly indestructible city gate was breached so easily! The coalition forces rushed into the city like a surging tide. Such amazing strength was far beyond the imagination of the Red Turban Army.
Witnessing this fierce battle, the generals of the Red Turban Army could not help but look at each other, and then put themselves in the roles of the soldiers defending the city.
After careful consideration, they realized with great pessimism that facing such a powerful and fierce firepower offensive, even if the Red Turban Army was responsible for defending the city at this moment, the final outcome would probably be almost the same!
Thinking of this, everyone was still terrified, secretly thanking themselves for not having any conflicts or frictions with this coalition army before. Otherwise, I'm afraid that by now, the Red Turban Army here would have been wiped out.
This siege was fought so easily that one could not help wondering if the coalition forces turned to attack the Red Turban Army, it would not take too much effort either. Realizing the huge disparity in strength between them, the Red Turban Army's confidence instantly weakened.
Zhu Yuanzhang was measuring the strength of both sides in his mind, and suddenly he burst into laughter and said loudly: "If that's the case, then I'm going to be bold and unrestrained for once! Brother Zhu, you can just call me Chongba or Xiaozhu. I wonder if Brother Zhu has come here to discuss something important with Brother Di?"
Just a simple "Brother Zhu" made Yongle Zhu Di feel relaxed and happy like a spring breeze.
If it weren't for the crowds of people around him, he really wanted to shout out loud on the spot: "Great!"
Of course, Lao Zhu must not know about this, otherwise he will really get beaten.
Yongle Zhu Di had a very comfortable look on his face, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised. He looked so enjoying that it was as if nothing else in the world could disturb his happy mood at the moment.
"Actually, it's nothing serious. I just came here to ask you when I was free. Xiao Zhu, in your opinion, what is the strength of the Ten Thousand Dynasties coalition?"
Zhu Yuanzhang's heart tightened when he heard this, but his face remained calm. He looked at Zhu Di firmly and answered without hesitation: "It is an elite army with strict military discipline, excellent equipment and training. It is rare in the world. With such a strong army in hand, overthrowing the tyrannical Yuan Dynasty is just around the corner!"
Zhu Yuanzhang was not flattering him deliberately, but spoke from the heart. After all, this coalition army of all dynasties did have impressive strength.
Zhu Di heard this, a hint of smugness flashed in his eyes, and then he smiled and asked, "Since our army is so powerful, if we attack your Red Turban Army, what do you think the result will be?"
Before he finished speaking, the faces of all the Red Turban Army generals present suddenly changed. They secretly muttered in their hearts: Humph, if I could really beat you, how could I tolerate your arrogance here? However, although everyone was dissatisfied, they did not dare to show it easily.
After a long silence, Zhu Yuanzhang finally broke the deadlock. He smiled and responded in a dignified manner: "Brother Zhu, you are joking. We are all righteous soldiers. We all rose up to fight against the brutal and cruel Yuan Dynasty because we couldn't bear to see the people of the world suffer. We have the same goal and should work together. How can we kill each other?"
"Hahahahahahaha...big brother is right. We are friendly forces!" Xu Da on the side hurriedly echoed Zhu Yuanzhang, with a flattering smile on his face.
Zhu Di turned his gaze to the young Xu Da, looked him up and down, and suddenly said in a loud voice: "Little Xu, I heard that you have fought in many battles over the years and have made great achievements. You are really amazing! I wonder if you are willing to join our army and create a great cause together?" After saying that, Zhu Di straightened his back. This was the first time in his life that he had the opportunity to act like a big brother in front of his young father-in-law.
When Xu Da heard this, he immediately looked anxious and hurriedly explained: "Brother Zhu, you are joking! How could I know how to lead troops to fight? Even those who talk about war on paper can't do it at all!" As he spoke, he waved his hands repeatedly, as if he was afraid that others would not believe him.
Yongle Zhu Di had a faint smile on his face, quietly watching his young father-in-law's performance. He then straightened his face and said loudly: "Okay, brothers, I will not joke with you anymore. Now our army is preparing to enter the city to fight, do you want to invite you to visit?"
When these words were spoken, Zhu Yuanzhang and others were slightly stunned.
In their hearts, they actually wanted to observe the so-called coalition forces of all dynasties up close. After all, if they really met on the battlefield one day in the future, it would be great to take the opportunity to learn more about the opponent's situation.
However, they couldn't help but have some concerns in their hearts, worrying that they would never be able to return safely after this trip.
Yongle Zhu Di was such a smart man that he could see through everyone's thoughts at just one glance.
He smiled and said comfortingly: "Don't worry, everyone. If I really wanted to completely wipe you out, I'm afraid you would have ceased to exist long ago. With the current strength of your Red Turban Army, it does not pose any substantial threat to the powerful Ten Thousand Dynasties Coalition Army."
After hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang and others felt a little unhappy, but they had to admit that what the other party said was true.
Just by looking at the swift speed at which the other side attacked the city, one can clearly see the huge gap in strength between the two sides.
"Since Brother Zhu has personally invited us, it would be a bit rude if we don't go. Let's go and see how Brother Di's Ten Thousand Dynasties Coalition Army captured the city. If you need my Red Turban Army, just tell me." Zhu Yuanzhang said with a smile. Zhu Yuanzhang led his majestic and battle-hardened generals and hundreds of carefully selected elite soldiers and generals, and marched towards the Ten Thousand Dynasties Coalition Army.
When they finally arrived at the camp of the Wanchao Allied Forces, everyone couldn't help but gasp.
From afar, one could see a murderous atmosphere in the camp of the Allied Forces of All Dynasties.
Zhu Yuanzhang and his companions approached cautiously, wanting to get a clearer look at this mysterious and powerful army. When they really saw the scene before them, they were even more shocked.
The first thing that caught my eye was the soldiers holding muskets. Compared with the muskets used by the Red Turban Army, these muskets were not only more refined in appearance, but also completely uniform in style. It was obvious that this type of musket had been mass-produced, and the number of muskets was staggering.
Looking at the clothes worn by the soldiers, they are also uniform, without any sense of clutter.
Each soldier held his head high, his expression firm, his posture as straight as a pine tree, and exuded confidence and pride. A closer look would reveal that there was not a single old, weak, sick or disabled soldier among them, and they were all strong and healthy, which showed that they must have received extremely rigorous military training on a daily basis.
In addition to muskets, there are also powerful cannons on display.
These cannons seemed able to easily blow down the solid city walls and deal a fatal blow to the enemy.
There were also some things that looked like cannon barrels, but they could be carried on the shoulders of soldiers and moved flexibly, which made Zhu Yuanzhang and others secretly guess that they should be the weapons used to blast open the city gates.
At this moment, dozens of vehicles with strange appearances appeared in everyone's sight.
They are arranged in neat rows, standing there quietly like steel behemoths.
Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes widened, and he pointed at the vehicles in amazement and asked, "Brother Zhu, is this also a car? Why is it so huge?"
The person next to him nodded and replied, "Yes, this is a baggage cart, which is specially used to transport weapons, equipment, food and supplies. It is much more convenient and faster than a traditional horse-drawn carriage."
Looking at the truck that was as big as a small room, especially seeing the truck bed full of food, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but sigh: "Such a large and heavy vehicle must require a large number of war horses to pull it!"
Yongle Zhu Di shook his head slightly and said with a smile: "This kind of vehicle does not need a warhorse, only a skilled driver is enough. Wang Xiaoshan, it's up to you now. First drive around here, and then drive this truck smoothly into the city."
Wang Xiaoshan quickly climbed into the driver's seat with skillful and neat movements. He held the steering wheel tightly with both hands and stared at the front with focused eyes. Not long after, accompanied by the low roar of the engine, the truck slowly moved like a giant beast awakening.
Zhu Yuanzhang and others who were watching from the side were all surprised. They watched the huge truck, which was like a small house, gradually speed up, and finally galloped away at a speed that was no less than that of a war horse, and disappeared from everyone's sight in the blink of an eye.
Xu Da's eyes widened, his mouth opened wide, his face full of disbelief. It took him a long time to come to his senses, and he muttered to himself, "It's really amazing! Such a huge thing can run so fast. The amount of food that this truck can carry at one time must have taken at least hundreds of civilians working together to transport it, and its speed is far beyond human power, it's amazing!"
Emperor Yongle Zhu Di smiled and nodded, expressing his agreement: "What Xiao Xu said is absolutely right. Not only that, if we encounter an attack from the Yuan army's war horses, we only need to fill the truck with mud and then rush straight towards them. With the powerful impact force of the heavy truck, we will be able to easily disperse the enemy's cavalry camp." Ever since Li Jinglong from the kitchen squad successfully used a truck to hit foreign cavalry last time, this type of heavy truck has been developed for a completely new purpose.
After making all the arrangements, Emperor Yongle Zhu Di left 50,000 troops to guard outside the city just in case.
Then, he contacted and communicated with Emperor Wan Chao Zhu Di through the advanced walkie-talkie in his hand, and then led the remaining 200,000 troops into the city in a mighty manner, ready to meet the upcoming challenge.
Zhu Yuanzhang, Xu Da and others followed closely behind him and slowly entered the city.
Looking up, we saw the allied forces of the Ten Thousand Dynasties pouring into the city like a tide, methodically carrying out the operation of clearing out the remnants of the Yuan Dynasty. The soldiers were holding guns, walking firmly and powerfully, and carefully searching every corner door by door.
Seeing this, Zhu Yuanzhang frowned and said worriedly, "Brother Zhu, aren't you worried that these soldiers will take this opportunity to plunder?"
Yongle Zhu Di, who was standing by, heard this and raised his lips slightly, revealing a confident smile: "Chongba, don't worry, just follow and watch, and you will understand. I have something important to deal with, so I will go ahead."
After saying this, Yongle Zhu Di turned and left, leaving Zhu Yuanzhang standing there.
After a brief hesitation, Zhu Yuanzhang came to his senses and his eyes happened to fall on a group of soldiers who were busy searching not far away.
Zhu Yuanzhang was so curious that he followed them. As they got closer, he was surprised to find that the Wanchao coalition army was completely different from other armies he had seen before.
During the search, these soldiers obviously had a unique and effective method.
They were agile yet calm, not missing any place where the enemy might hide, and not harming any innocent people. What was even more admirable was that when they saw people in need of help at home, they did not hesitate to lend a hand, showing their high discipline and good quality.
The same was true when searching the landlords' homes. Even though the landlords offered their money for fear of being robbed, no one accepted it.
Zhu Yuanzhang and his generals were extremely shocked.
The Red Turban Army could never match such strict military discipline.
"I've never been as good as others in my life, but this time, I'm really convinced."
Zhu Ming came over and said, "Let's go. It's time for dinner. I'm sure you haven't eaten yet. Let's go together."
"We have a lot of people, let's go back and eat." When Zhu Yuanzhang came here, he brought several hundred people just in case.
Zhu Ming smiled and said, "Why are you being polite? You are not a stranger." (End of this chapter)
