First Minister of Ming Dynasty

Afterwards, Hu Dahai paced on the ground for a long time, angrily said to his subordinates: "Give me an order to attack the city tomorrow!"

Chapter 211 Zhu Yuanzhang is accurate in seeing people

Hu Dahai led the army and horses, and it was Zhuji that he wanted to attack.And still stationed in the city is Shi Ma Yisun, the governor of Zhejiang province in the Yuan court.

This person's ancestors were from the Liao Dynasty, and he was the hereditary Deputy Wanhu, who was originally stationed in Chuzhou.

This person may not be well-known, but he has a subordinate who is very good, and that is Liu Bowen!

That's right, this is Lao Liu's boss.

As a result, because Liu Bowen fell into the hands of Zhu Yuanzhang, the armed forces of the landlords in Chuzhou collapsed, and Zhu's army entered Chuzhou. Can temporarily retreat into Zhuji.

Shi Mo Yisun, who was trapped in the isolated city, desperately asked for help and tried his best to escape, but he soon found sadly that the entire Zhejiang province was still loyal to the Yuan court, and he was the only one left.

Looking around, there is no Dayuan Zhongliang!

Fang Guozhen in the east, although nominally accepting the Dayuan Zhaoan, but he and Shi Moyisun are completely different things, and Fang Guozhen is also in flirting with Zhu Yuanzhang. To the Yuan Dynasty, only Lu Bu is as loyal to Dong Zhuo.

Looking further north, Zhang Shicheng's soldiers and horses marched south from Suzhou, already intending to annex Hangzhou, but the road to the north was cut off anyway.

Looking to the west, Jiande and Jinhua are all Zhu Yuanzhang's soldiers and horses. The three major red scarf armies surrounded Shi Moyisun, making it airtight.

This situation is [-] times more dangerous than Jingzhou Guan Erye.

However, Zhu Jiajun did not immediately target Shi Mo Yisun.Xu Da arranged for an army to attack Xinzhou. His goal was to open the door to the land of Bamin.

It wasn't until Xinzhou was captured and Yuan Ting's influence in Zhejiang Province was wiped out that Hu Dahai was dispatched as a vanguard officer to capture Zhuji and eliminate Shimo Yisun.

The entire siege battle had been going on for a while, and Shi Moyisun resisted desperately. In the end, this group of Yuan troops was still quite tenacious, and they turned out to be tough.

Hu Dahai was still a little hesitant, but this letter from Zhu Yuanzhang actually made him make up his mind that he must immediately capture Zhuji, end the battle, and win at all costs!

Hu Dahai seems to be a reckless man, but he is very decisive.

The son committed a serious crime and was about to be beheaded. The superior sent a letter to himself, explaining the situation, and this was for himself.Needless to say who Zhu Yuanzhang is, if such a big thing happened, if the Yuan army in Zhuji could not be solved for a long time, someone would criticize him, saying that he was unwilling to contribute because of his son's death, he was hesitant to move forward, and held a grudge against his superiors... If there is such a legend, then he is in big trouble.

Therefore, no matter what, the battle must be ended as soon as possible to convince the superiors of their loyalty.

If he was lucky, his son might still have a way out, but if he was unlucky... that would be his own fault!

As his own flesh and blood, Hu Dahai couldn't help but feel heartbroken, but with tens of thousands of shi of grain, and making a fortune by brewing wine privately... This little bastard really doesn't want to live anymore!

So much food, can you finish it?

So much money, can you spend it all?

Disobedient son, you deserve to die!

Hu Dahai gritted his teeth, furious, extremely sad and indignant... All the anger was poured into Zhuji County in front of him, no matter what, he had to take it down, and use the blood of these dog tartars to wash away the anger in his heart.

Hu Dahai locked up his second son, Hu, and called him here.

This son looks like a warrior just like him... Hu Dahai put his armor on his son without saying a word.

"Your elder brother violated the king's law and embarrassed our family. You will take the lead in attacking the city tomorrow and be the first to go in. Get your father's face back. Do you hear me?"

Hu Guanzhu was startled, and immediately nodded without hesitation, "Father, don't worry...that, my elder brother?"

"Don't ask!" Hu Dahai suddenly roared angrily: "You go to the city and take the merit of being the first to ascend, then ask me again!"

Hu Guanzhu knew his father's temper, so he didn't dare to speak, so he could only obediently prepare for the battle.

Zhu's army is ready for battle, and Shi Mo Yisun in the city seems to feel that the end is approaching.

Coincidentally, today is his mother's birthday.

Shi Moyisun hesitated again and again, but ordered the subordinates to cook some of his mother's favorite dishes, and then went to visit his mother.

Mother and son faced each other, Shi Mo Yisun felt heartbroken and cried bitterly.

Seeing her son crying before saying anything, the old lady already knew that disaster was imminent, so she didn't need to say anything.

"My son, why should I be so crazy! What happened today was already expected, it's just a matter of days!"

Shi Moyisun wiped his tears, he is a man of great knowledge and talent, proficient in civil and martial arts, he can be regarded as a character, seeing his mother say this, he could only weep and say: "Righteousness is not more important than royal family, food and salary are nothing to worry about." , there is no king; the mother is old and does not serve her, so she has no relatives. Without a king and no relatives, the child is really an unfaithful and unfilial person, how can he stand in the world!"

Shi Moyisun hammered the ground with his hands, weeping bitterly, his grief and indignation reached the extreme, and he also regretted to the extreme.

The old lady saw it and sighed helplessly.She was trembling, helped her son up, let Shi Moyisun sit down, and then said: "I have received your favor for my mother, and I have won the imperial seal. I have no regrets in this life. Now the red thieves are rampant, and the fortune of the Great Yuan is over. Those who surrendered to the bandits , like a crucian carp crossing a river. Few are willing to die for the country and defend righteousness! The former heard that Jin Yi, the chief executive, was martyred on Taiping Road. Now in Zhejiang Province, no official is willing to die for the country. If my son has the will to die for the country Xin, I will only be happy for my mother!"

Hearing what the old lady said, Shi Moyisun was even more shocked, almost crying without tears.

"Mother, the child is not filial, this official, this official has done a lot of harm!" Shi Moyi and Sun Yangtian lamented, if he hadn't been an official of the Yuan court, he would definitely not want to die, let alone hurt his family.

But since he became an official of the Yuan Dynasty and received the salary of the Great Yuan, he had to stick to it for the rest of his life. How could he live up to the grace of heaven?

"Mother, Dayuan is only allowed to betray the child, and the child is not allowed to disobey the Dayuan. The child has made a decision to fight the red bandits to the death and never surrender! A man would rather break the jade than be whole!"

Hearing this, the old lady clapped her palms and laughed, then stretched out her hand to touch Shi Moyisun's cheek, and said with a smile: "My son is loyal and brave, and he really lives up to his family! You just go to fight with peace of mind, as a mother, I will never make things difficult for you! "

Hearing this, Shi Moyisun looked at his mother again, his face full of determination, his heart moved, and he felt a little bit reluctant, so he threw himself on his mother's lap, wanting to say something, but the old lady stood up and took a glass of wine , smiled and said: "Come on, let's spend this birthday with my mother! This year is my mother's [-]th birthday, Jiazi reincarnation, my mother has seen and gone through everything, my son doesn't need to be sad for my mother. In this world, in the end Can't be like grass, trees and mud!"

Shi Moyisun was sad, but he didn't know what to say, so he could only serve his mother with his head down and tears, and passed his 60th birthday.

In and out of the city, final preparations are being made.

But there was one person who couldn't ignore the battle in Zhuji, and that was Xu Da!

He was originally based in Jiande, not far from Hu Dahai.Just before Lao Zhu's letter was delivered to Hu Dahai, a letter in Zhang Ximeng's personal name fell into Xu Da's hands.

It's just that although it was in a private name, the above content scared Xu Da quite a bit.

The superior actually wanted to kill Hu Dahai's son?

Aren't you afraid that Hu Dahai will rebel against Zhu's army in his rage?

For Hu Dahai right now, whether he surrenders to Fang Guozhen or goes to seek refuge with Zhang Shicheng, it is a breeze.

A commander-level general surrendered to the enemy, and the blow to Zhu's army was absolutely disastrous.Ever since the establishment of the Zhu Family Army, I haven't thought about such a thing. Could it happen to me?

Xu Da was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized a problem. Zhang Ximeng mentioned in the letter that Zhu Yuanzhang had already written to Hu Dahai... This is so strange!

Why did Lao Zhu tell Hu Dahai, but Zhang Ximeng wrote a personal letter to him?

Shouldn't I be prepared to try my best to hide Hu Dahai?

Why is it the other way around?

Xu Da was silent for a long time, and suddenly realized the mystery of the matter!

Will Hu Dahai's subordinates follow him to rebel?

It seems difficult!

Xu Da asked himself, would his soldiers listen to him?

It may be possible to fight a war, but don't dream about other things.

Almost all of these soldiers have acres of land given by Zhu Yuanzhang. Their families live and work in peace and contentment, and their food and wages are all very good. Why should they follow you to rebel?

Moreover, Zhang Ximeng promotes literacy in the army, and there are various cultural performances, sports competitions, and activities for reciting military regulations...After this series of events, Zhu's army is no longer a soldier returning home, and the situation is very different.

Of course, can a chief general abduct his subordinates?

If you still can't make an assertion, just say you can't.

If Zhu Yuanzhang wrote to Xu Da and told him the matter... Xu Da had to take action to prevent Hu Dahai from rebelling.

But once Xu Da made a move and asked Hu Dahai to investigate, it might have a counterproductive effect, causing Hu Dahai to do something irrational in fear.

If so, it would be self-defeating.

I have to tell Xu Da, and I can't officially notify Xu Da,

That's why I got Zhang Ximeng's letter, I told it, but I didn't tell it completely!

This method is really delicate!

Then what should I do?

Xu Da pondered for a while, and unexpectedly had an idea.

"Pass my order, immediately prepare [-] shi of military rations, send them to Zhuji, and give them to Commander Hu!"

Thirty-eight thousand stones, is it very little?

Calculated based on the tax level of the Zhu family army, it is almost [-] households a year's tax and grain.

However, in an ordinary county today, there are seven to eight thousand households and 3 to [-] thousand people, which is not bad.

This is the annual tax for most of the counties.Dingyuan is a big county, there are too many counties, far less prosperous than Dingyuan.

If it is used to raise soldiers, when ordinary soldiers are not fighting, they can eat one and a half catties of grain a day, and when they are fighting, they will increase to two catties of staple food.

One stone of grain is enough for sixty days!Thirty-eight thousand shi of grain is enough for thirty-eight thousand people to eat for two months.

Put it there, it is a big mountain!

"I hope Lao Hu won't be confused!"

Xu Da made arrangements to send a food team to Zhuji.

Almost at the same time, Hu Dahai sent someone to deliver a letter, asking Xu Da to send troops to assist him.Xu Da, who got the news, showed a smile, and finally nothing was out of hand.

The superior is really accurate in judging people!

Xu Da personally led the troops to come.

The small town of Zhuji was bustling like never before. Hu Dahai gathered [-] return guns to bombard the city wall... Every projectile, carrying Hu Dahai's anger, crossed the sky and hit the city wall angrily.

After a full morning of angry shooting, the city tower was smashed to pieces, dozens of Yuan soldiers among them turned into corpses everywhere, and the blood stained the blue bricks.

Another crack was smashed into the city wall, accompanied by the bombardment of heavy projectiles, like a giant hammer, one after another... At noon, a section of the ten-foot-long city wall collapsed.

"The tortoise shell has finally been cracked open! Shut it up, I'll fuck you!"

Accompanied by Hu Dahai's furious roar, Hu Guanzhu led the elite soldiers to the gap, ran wildly, and rushed forward without fear.

Chapter 212 Unrewardable

In the spring of the 16th year of Zhengzheng, which was also the spring of the first year of Wu Guo in China, Zhu's army launched an attack on the last remnants of the Yuan court in Zhejiang province entrenched in Zhuji.

After this battle, Jiangnan no longer had the direct subordinate forces of Yuan Ting. Although Fang Guozhen and Chen Youding still respected Yuan Ting, their loyalty to Da Yuan was only Lu Bu's loyalty to Ding Yuan.

As for the Chicken Eating Contest at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, the qualifying rounds in the southern region were almost over.

The final shortlisted players are the three majors and the second junior, Tianwan Xu Shouhui, Huaxia Wuguo Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhang Shicheng at both ends of the first mouse, plus Fang Guozhen and Chen Youding.

The Yuan Dynasty ruled the world for decades.Although it is about to fall apart, there are always some people who are willing to die for the court.

Shi Moyisun commanded the Yuan army and defended the city.

The mother of Shi Mo Yisun in the mansion, wearing the official clothes of the Yuan Dynasty, sat on the middle hall, looking imposingly, staring at her family, arranged firewood around the house, fetched several buckets of fish oil, and poured it on the firewood.

After doing all this, the old lady looked at the servants and said to them: "Go, now that the country is ruined and the family is destroyed, you should find your own way of life, don't follow the old man to die."

These servants were in tears, and they followed the old lady from Chuzhou to Zhuji, escorting them all the way, never leaving.Now that they are dying, they are unwilling to leave.

"Mrs. Tai, let the servants serve you. Even if you go underground, don't separate us, master and servant!"

"That's right, Mrs. Tai, the red thieves go against the laws of heaven and act recklessly, God will accept them!"

"Mrs. Tai, the servants are guarding you. If the red thieves come in, let them fight to the end!"

……

Seeing how decisive the servants were, the old lady felt very happy!

"Okay! Our family has received the emperor's great kindness for generations, and we can only sacrifice our lives to repay it. Your master vowed to defend the city to the death, and you will sacrifice your life to guard the family. With a bone in my body, I will perfect my son and be loyal to the king. Even the broken jade of the whole family is enough to shine through the ages!"

"Go, call your young master and wife over!"

The old lady asked Shi Moyisun's wife and children to be called over.

My wife is less than 30 years old this year, and she has been in poor health. She was homeless some time ago and also contracted a disease, leaving only a handful of bones.The two children were also listless, especially the younger daughter, who kept coughing and seemed to be suffering from asthma.

The old lady looked at the three of them, and couldn't help but angrily said: "The country is ruined and the family is ruined. At this time, are you still thinking of escaping? Freshen up and dress up! Go to the disaster with your husband and father together!" !"

When Madam heard this, her eyes widened and she was terrified. Suddenly, she knelt down on the ground and kowtowed.

"Mother, mother! It's just that the daughter-in-law is going to die, but, but these two children are still too young, no, they shouldn't die with us, please mother, please let them go?"

"Let it go? Where to put it? You are so confused! We are dead, so why don't we let them be the people of the red thief?" The old lady grabbed her grandson and reached out to embrace her granddaughter.
