I, the grandson of the second emperor of the Ming Dynasty, earned 100 million taels at the beginning

On the way back, he kept a sullen face. The old man knew what was going on in his mind, so he ignored him and wanted to let him figure it out by himself.

But the old man didn't know, he thought about this way, not only didn't he figure it out, but his hatred grew stronger.

In the past, he just wanted to win the throne, as long as the eldest family recognized his status, he would let the eldest family live a peaceful life.

But now he has abandoned this idea. In his current thinking, if he wants to ascend to the throne, the first person to get rid of is the eldest family.

Especially Zhu Zhangui, that little bastard, if he doesn't kill Zhu Zhangui, he will never even think about sitting in that position in his life.

Originally, at the time at Alutai, Zhu Gaoxu still thought that he would use the tens of thousands of troops of Zhu Zhangui, a bastard, to deal with the hundreds of thousands of strong troops in the grassland, and there would be absolutely no chance of survival.

In the end, Alutai was like a stupid pig, he lost the battle that could be won, and lost it completely.

Zhu Gaoxu couldn't figure it out, how did Alutai lose in a battle that could be won by a dog there?

The hero who unified the prairie had this strength, and the prairie was too watery.

Fortunately, Zhu Zhangui was seriously injured when he rushed to the battle. On the surface, Zhu Gaoxu looked distressed for his eldest nephew, but in fact he almost flew up in his heart.

I kept shouting in my heart, die, die.

It's a pity that things backfired, this little bastard suddenly came back to life.

At that time, Zhu Gaoxu regretted it a bit. If he had known that this little bastard was so capable, he should have sent someone to get rid of this little bastard when he was recovering from his illness.

Even though he thought so, Zhu Gaoxu also knew that he had no chance.

Ever since Zhu Zhangui was injured, the old man took care of him personally. Even if he went out to do errands, he would leave behind the most loyal guards to guard him.

Who is the old man guarding against?

Zhu Gaoxu knew very well in his heart that he was just guarding against him and the third child.

After missing that opportunity, Zhu Gaoxu didn't sleep well for more than a month.

Two months ago, the old man sent him to assist Zhu Zhangui and let Zhu Zhangui command him. He was very upset.

But after hearing that Zhu Zhangui was besieged, his mood brightened instantly.

Then I didn't know what I was thinking, so I directly declared that I was sick and wanted to recuperate, so I dragged 5 troops to station here.

Anyway, no matter what, if you miss this opportunity, you don't know when the next time will be.

Zhu Zhangui, this little bastard is not dead, he has no chance in the future.

In order to make this little bastard die, Zhu Gaoxu also sent people to various checkpoints, using various reasons, to stop the material troops delivering logistics to the Shenji Operation.

Anyway, the purpose of all this is to let Zhu Zhangui die in the Western Regions, and then use the death of this little bastard to stimulate the boss, so that the boss can't stand the blow of the white-haired man sending the black-haired man, and he also falls down directly.

At that time, send someone to rob and kill Zhu Zhanji who came back from Ah San, and no one will rob him of Daming's country.

Those who can compete are all dead, the youngest is sure not to stand out, and the other youngsters of the old man are still young, so they can't compete with him at all.

With the cleverness of my sister-in-law, she will definitely understand that if she tries to grab the throne again, the whole family will lose their lives.

Moreover, the old man is also so old, and the two most valued grandsons have passed away one after another, and he definitely can't bear the blow in his heart, and it is even possible to walk with the boss.

Thinking of the success of the future plan and the appearance of himself wearing a dragon robe and sitting on the dragon chair, Zhu Gaoxu showed a smug smile on his face, raised his hand and tore off a leg of the roasted whole lamb, and gnawed on it.

Zhu Gaoxu thought he had concealed it well, but he forgot that the old man had two intelligence agencies in his hands.

Although these two departments listen to Zhu Zhangui, the old man is the emperor after all, and there is no conflict between the two of them. As long as it is not related to Zhu Zhangui's secret, these two departments will truthfully report what the old man asks.

"Peng!"

The old man who was cleaning up the remnants in Hulunbuir kicked the eucalyptus away.

"Send me an order to let him march immediately, if you dare to find a reason to delay, I will personally go over and beat him to death."

"Tell him, don't say he's sick, even if he's dead, let someone carry his body to the Western Regions."

"Order the Western Expeditionary Corps, and march immediately when the order arrives. Anyone who disobeys the order, no matter who the generals are, will be chopped off by me!"

The two kneeling in front of the old man were the person in charge of the Jinyi Guard and the Moon Shadow Guard who followed him.

Zhu Gaoxu stayed for two months and did not enter the army. The old man really didn't know at the beginning that he was busy all the time, thinking that his second son had fought with him for so long, and he also knew that time is life for soldiers.

Coupled with his trust in the second military commander, he didn't pay too much attention.

And just two days ago, a vanguard general under the old second hand reported that the army hadn't moved at all, and had been staying in one place for two months. He said that Zhu Gaoxu was sick, and asked the old man what should he do?

How could the old man, who had been playing tricks all his life, believe such nonsense and send two departments to investigate directly.

After several years of development, Jinyiwei and Yueyingwei have been fully deployed, and there are officials from all over the country, from the cabinet to the ordinary county magistrate's home.

As important supervisors, Han Wang Zhu Gaoxu and Zhao Wang Zhu Gaosui had countless spies around them.

Some of them advanced quickly and have become close friends of the two.

What Zhu Gaoxu was doing there, the two sides didn't even send people to investigate, and directly reported the report to the old man.

The reason why they didn't report it at the beginning was because they knew in their hearts that if they reported it directly, the old man would think that Zhu Zhangui had sent his subordinates to trick his uncle.

So at the beginning Zhu Zhangui explained to the two parties that the old man should not report the matter of these two uncles unless he asks.

It was precisely because of this that the old man didn't know the reason at first.

But Zhu Zhangui already knew it.

After all, this is related to the life and death of his boss, and his subordinates dare not delay this news.

It would be fine on the day they received the news. They sent people directly to the Western Regions, and then used the walkie-talkie to tell Zhu Zhangui the news.

Zhu Zhangui didn't say anything about this, but just let them continue to watch.

Zhu Zhangui has the confidence to defend the city. It doesn't matter if the second uncle comes or not. In fact, he can relax a bit if he doesn't come.

Otherwise, it would be tiring to fight with this second uncle while rectifying the Western Regions.

Of course, I said I didn't care, but I still wrote it down in a small notebook.

On a certain day of a certain year, my dear second uncle wanted to cheat me, and I was very upset about it, so I added two catties of firewood.

No one dared to disobey the emperor's order, even if Zhu Gaoxu was reluctant, he could only pull out the camp and continue marching.

But this guy is enough to delay time.

Walking dozens of miles every day, either I have diarrhea or I am hungry, or it is cold or hot, and I find various reasons to delay the time.

It was a short distance from Kebuduo to Turpan, and Zhu Gaoxu walked for two months before arriving at the Turpan camp.

Arriving in Turpan, the first thing Zhu Gaoxu saw was a camp full of wounded soldiers.

Severed limbs, bandaged soldiers like Mu Naiyin, everywhere you look.

"Good guy, this is a bad fight!"

Seeing that the little bastard's Shenji Battalion suffered such a heavy loss, Zhu Gaoxu couldn't help feeling happy.

But it's only psychological. If he had a gloating smile on his face and the old man found out, he would definitely break his leg.

"I have seen His Highness the King of Han!"

The officer in charge of the camp didn't have any surprises on his face when he saw the reinforcements coming, and he calmly walked forward and bowed his hands to salute.

Zhu Gaoxu was also not together, he nodded slightly and asked.

"Where did you hit?"

"Still suffering!" The officer directly answered the current location of the Shenji Battalion without hesitation.

Zhu Gaoxu snorted lightly.

"Your Shenji Battalion still claims to be the first battalion of the three major battalions. A small bitter leader blocked you for two or three months. I really don't know where you got the confidence to call yourself the first battalion."

The officer didn't make any excuses when he heard the words, but felt uncomfortable for a while.

Although we were stopped, at least we were attacking the enemy. As for your uncle, you just walked around for half a year.

If it wasn't for the emperor's urging, your old man may not arrive next year.

Zhu Gaoxu rested in the Turpan camp for two days, and took the army to Kuxian on the third day.

This time he did not slow down the army.

After all, he was already within the monitoring range of the brat's army. If he procrastinated, the brat would definitely be cautious and sue the old man.

The troops rushed all the way and arrived at Kuxian in more than ten days.

Arriving here, the tragedy of the battlefield was presented before everyone's eyes.

The city wall in the distance was bombarded with potholes, and there were corpses everywhere outside the city wall, including those from the Western Regions Legion and the Shenji Battalion.

Although it is now autumn and the weather has turned cooler, the smell of rancid corpses has always been pervasive here.

Zhu Gaoxu covered his nose, looking at Jiang Huai who walked up expressionlessly, and some officers of Shenji Battalion.

"How is the current situation?"

"The enemy is defending the city, and the number of enemy troops far exceeds ours. Our army has attacked several times, but they have returned without success." Jiang Huai reported the current situation expressionlessly.

"How many enemy troops are there?"

Zhu Gaoxu frowned.

Although he wished that Zhu Zhangui would die immediately, but when he was on the battlefield, his soldier nature suppressed all those little thoughts.

This time Jianghuai finally showed his expression, and he replied with a wry smile: "Before meeting them, there were about 7 of them. We annihilated more than 1 people when we lost power. There should be 4 people."

To be honest, Jianghuai really tried his best.

Taking a little more than 2 people to attack a city guarded by 5 people is simply embarrassing.

Coupled with the fact that Kuxian is an important city, the defense can be said to be impenetrable.

The artillery of the Shenji Camp fired from morning to night every day, but it was useless to take the opponent's city.

Later, after inquiring, I found out that this city was built with the help of the construction method of the Central Plains, using the Central Plains Sanhe soil, and its strength is no worse than the cement that has just emerged in the Ming Dynasty.

The shells from the artillery hit the city wall, making a small hole if it was better, but only leaving a trace if it was less lucky.

The four to five thousand shells fired by the Shenji Battalion over the past month were useless against the opponent's city wall.

It's not that Jianghuai didn't think about blasting with explosives, but the other party probably knew the reason for the loss of fork force, and patrolled very strictly at night.

Every once in a while, torches are thrown outside the city.

Even this group of insidious guys secretly sent people out of the city when it was dark, and scattered triangle nails around the city.

These inconspicuous little things have caused hardships to the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion. Many soldiers quit the battle line because their feet were injured and infected.

Just this little thing caused the Shenji Camp to lose thousands of people.

In addition to other casualties in the siege, more than 1500 people were killed in the Shenji Battalion in just over a month, and as many as 5000 were injured.

This is the most difficult battle Jianghuai has fought since joining the army.

When I was overseas, I fought against small countries. Those small countries didn’t have strong walls at all. In addition, those people didn’t understand the characteristics of gunpowder. Once a blast broke through the gap, the army rushed in.

When they came back, they fought against the prairie people. These prairie barbarians had no sense of city defense at all, and they fought head-on in the wild.

When fighting the Japanese kingdom, the cities of those little pumpkins were like pigpens, they could jump over them with a little footsteps, and most of them were made of wood and bamboo. Facing Ming's artillery, they had no defense at all.

The only difficult part was Sakura City. As a result, the city wall was blown away overnight by the Marine Corps before it could play a role.

After many years of victories and battles with the wind, Jiang Huai gradually had the idea that as long as there are artillery and gunpowder, there will be no unbreakable city in the world.

As a result, this time he had a bloody blow to Zaiku, because his lack of siege experience caused heavy losses to his brothers.

This is also due to the discipline and tenacious fighting spirit of the gods. If it was replaced by other troops with such heavy casualties, their morale would have been lost long ago, let alone continue to attack the enemy.

Now he finally understands why Zhang Fu reminded him over and over again when Zhang Fu was teaching him how to fight.

Hearing that the other party still had 4 people, Zhu Gaoxu staggered and stared at Jiang Huai.

"How many did you say?"

Jiang Huai smiled wryly.

"There should be more than 4, plus the people in the city, there should be [-] to [-] combat power."

Zhu Gaoxu had the idea of ​​turning around and going back directly.

7 to [-] people go to attack a city with [-] to [-] defenders, even a fool knows that it is simply impossible.

The law of using troops is to encircle it if it is ten, to attack it if it is five, to divide it if it is doubled, to fight it if it is small, to escape it if it is small, and to avoid it if it is not enough.

That is to say, the principle of using troops is that if you have ten times the enemy's strength, surround the enemy; if you have five times the enemy's strength, you will attack the enemy; To defeat the enemy, retreat if your troops are weaker than the enemy's, and avoid a decisive battle if your strength is weaker than the enemy's.
