Daming: From the end of Hongwu

Ten thousand? !

Zhang Yu was taken aback, wasn't it [-], but in an instant he realized that Zhu Di must have wanted to take [-] to fight Juyongguan. This was because he was afraid that he would have few soldiers, so he specially gave him [-] from Zhu Di's own soldiers. In case of accidents.

But in this case, Juyongguan and Song Zhong behind became the most difficult to fight.

Zhang Yu tentatively said: "Your Highness, why don't I take Eight Thousand to fight against Juyongguan?"

Zhu Di shook his head and said firmly, "No, I'll go in person."

Seeing this, the generals stopped talking. If Zhu Di didn't have this kind of self-confidence, he wouldn't have won many battles these years. It's just that they were a little worried about Zhu Di, but Zhu Di was very satisfied with such an assignment.

The most convenient forward general he uses is Zhen Wu. Once he can't attack Juyongguan, he will call Zhen Wu back from Miyun. Besides, maybe Zhen Wu will take down Miyun soon. Once they join forces, let alone Song Zhong. 3 people, 5 people, he is also sure to break it.

Song Zhong, Song Zhong, hum, this name is doomed.

"Okay, that's it, let's go back to rest and prepare. Tomorrow, after the discussion in the hall, we will go directly to the outside of the city to take the oath." Zhu Di said.

All the generals bowed down and said yes, and retreated one by one. At the same time, everyone began to think about how to fight the next battle.

……

On the second day, Zhen Wu and others first went to the main hall of King Yan's Mansion to discuss matters. Zhu Di sat on the throne and promulgated his decrees to all the civil and military officials in Beiping City.

In the name of Zhu Qitai and Huang Zicheng, the year of Jianwen was removed, and it was still called Hongwu 32 years, and he began to pretend to be an official, promoted Zhenwu, Zhang Yu, Zhu Neng, and Qiu Fu as the commanders, and promoted Li Youzhi as Chief Secretary Counseling, worshiping Jin Zhong as Ji Shan.

Zhu Di was a little obsessed with this feeling of not having to care about the court and making decisions on his own.

Zhen Wu was also very pleased. After saying it, he was also in command. Although it was only a letter difference from Commander Wei, there was a big difference in it.

And the rest of the guards also rose. Tan Yuan and Wang Zhen were promoted to guard commanders, Zhang Wu and Xue Lu were promoted to a thousand households, and even the third child was promoted to a hundred households because of beheading the guard of Qihua Gate.

And obviously, these people will jump up like a rocket in a very short time, because there is still a lot of official positions between Zhen Wu, the commander of the capital, and them.

This is also the reason for the lack of soldiers. When there are more soldiers, not to mention Zhang Wu and others, Zhen Wu probably will go up a bit.

Killing and setting fire to a gold belt, if you want to be promoted, there is really nothing better than rebellion.

In the blink of an eye, Zhen Wu jumped from Commander Wei to Commander Du. If this was a normal promotion, it would be enough for Zhen Wu to survive for more than ten years.

Next, Zhu Di ordered that Guo Zi, the former chief secretary, lead Guantong, Tang Yun, and Xie Li to guard Beiping, while the army marched in four directions.

And without further ado, after the meeting was over, Zhu Di led the generals to the outside of the city.

A high platform has already been set up outside the city.

Zhu Di and the others climbed onto the high platform and looked at the neatly arranged soldiers and the flags fluttering in the wind. They were quite touched. In the past, they went out for the imperial court and Ming Dynasty, but now they are for themselves.

Zhu Di took a deep breath to calm down his heart, and then his voice began to echo in the world.

"My emperor's examination of Taizu Gao, Emperor Gao, started from the very beginning. After many hardships and hardships, he established the world and achieved the emperor's career. His old man wanted to pass it on forever, so he divided up the princes and vassals to consolidate the clan. Tai and Huang Zicheng harbored evil intentions and harmed our clan. King Zhou, King Xiang, King Qi, King Dai, and King Min were all taken away in less than a year. When there is such a tragic event in the world, everyone who hears it will beat their chests and stamp their feet with great grief and indignation."

"Now, the elder of the surviving son of my great ancestor, King Zhu Di of Yan, has been guarding Peiping for 20 years. , forcing me to suffer from the cold and suffering, and falsely accusing me of trying to rebel, intending to take my life in Peiping, what a boldness, what a treacherous minister, and what I miss is that Emperor Xiaokang and I have the same father and mother , wait for your Majesty to abide by the way of being a minister like the Taizu, and die calmly."

"However, I thought about it in a blink of an eye. If you want to cut down a big tree, you should cut off the branches first. If the vassal of your relatives perishes, the court will be isolated and helpless. This is not in line with the wishes of treacherous ministers. Wouldn't the country be in danger under such treacherous ministers? How can I ignore the current Majesty and let him stay by the side of wolves, tigers and leopards, helpless?! And "Ancestral Instructions" Emperor Gao said: "There are no ministers in the court, and there are traitors in the court, and they must be punished by soldiers." I want to ask for the evil from the emperor of the Qing Dynasty.” Therefore, I have to raise troops, and I have to lead you to help the Ming Dynasty get rid of those treacherous officials and return the emperor to a safe place. That's what a loyal man should do."

"Today, I, Zhu Di, ask all the soldiers, are you willing to follow my Qing Dynasty and get rid of traitors?" Zhu Di roared out the last sentence.

I don't know who yelled first: "On the side of the Qing emperor, get rid of treacherous sycophants."

All the soldiers in the audience shouted.

The momentum is surging, breaking through the sky.

a long time.

After his voice weakened, Zhu Di suppressed his voice, and said in a deep voice: "Okay, when the matter is over, the names of your loyalty and bravery will be recited by the people of the world through the ages, and I, Zhu Di, will not treat you badly. In order to reward silver and have a bright future, all the soldiers need to fight bravely to win glory and wealth."

"Now, all armies set off!"

Follow Zhu Di's order.

Zhen Wu, Zhang Yu, and Zhu Neng each led their men down the high platform, came to the front of their own soldiers and horses, and started to move with them.

More than 2 troops rushed to the four directions one after another in an orderly manner, trying to build a safe base camp, and all the soldiers were also filled with excitement from Zhu Di's sip of chicken soup, thinking about how to fight hard so as to create prosperity and wealth.

And just as Zhen Wu and the others were leaving.

The news that Zhu Dijing was unable to swear as a master spread to various places in Ming Dynasty, such as King Ning in Daning, King Liao in Liaodong, King Zhou who was demoted to Yunnan, etc., including Zhu Yunqi in the capital, and all the courtiers in the capital.

Those who heard about this seemed to be shocked by Zhu Di.

They all exclaimed at the same time: "Zhu Di, how dare he!!"

……

Chapter 251 - Zhu Yunqi sent troops and Miyun descended

Capital.

It rained last night, and the abundant rain swept away the dryness of the entire Nanjing city. Everything in the world, including humans, seemed to be nourished and glowed with a more energetic state.

Even on the second day, in some low corners of the imperial palace, there were still some small puddles of water. When the wind blows, the cool water vapor will fill the entire sky with the wind, bit by bit. With the hot feeling brought by the sun, it added a humidity to the whole palace.

In Fengtian Palace, when Zhu Yunwen heard that Yan Wang Zhu Di had rebelled, he was so shocked that he almost fell off the dragon chair.

On this day, he was discussing the "Zhouguan" law with Fang Xiaoru and others, intending to make reforms and revitalize the culture and governance, but the sudden news hit him in the head, so he didn't have any thoughts to discuss other things. of.

He looked at the notice written by Zhu Di, and watched Zhu Di one by one in order to help him, Qing Jun side, get rid of traitors, justice can no longer be justice.

Zhu Yunxuan angrily threw the notice on the ground heavily.

"Is there any reason for this? How dare you talk so cleverly. What do you think I am? An ignorant three-year-old child? Do I still need him to come to my side, when I don't know right from wrong, and don't know loyalty?" Zhu Yunwen said angrily. With that, those angers seemed to be burning more and more vigorously.

He already hated someone who would pretend to be his uncle, yet King Yan dared to use his uncle's name against him.

You must know that he is the emperor of Ming Dynasty.

The emperor does not need a few elders to press on his head.

What he needs is for everyone to surrender.

"Don't be annoyed, Your Majesty, it's just a high-sounding reason, how can you make Your Majesty angry." Fang Xiaoru quickly persuaded.

Realizing that he was losing his composure, Zhu Yunqi took a few deep breaths, trying to calm down. After he had suppressed the air pressure, Zhu Yunqi asked Ji Fang Xiaoru and the other three, but his expression still showed his unhappiness.

"In the current situation, how should I act, please speak freely."

Huang Zicheng thought for a while, then stepped forward and said: "The northern soldiers are always strong, if they don't attack them early, the land of Hebei may be lost, and then it will really become troublesome, so I suggest that you send troops to fight against them as soon as possible, and wait until the king of Yan is taken down." Afterwards, just question the crime again, there is no need to talk to King Yan right now."

Qi Tai also echoed: "I also think this is the best way. The King of Yan will rise up to resist, and His Majesty can take advantage of the situation to show the power of the court. The army will directly defeat the King of Yan. This will also deter other kings. There are benefits to this strategy.”

Sitting on the dragon chair, Zhu Yunwen's eyes flashed twice, and then he made up his mind: "Then let the army ask for it."

Afterwards, several people began to discuss how to enter the army.

And when several people's discussions were in full swing, many military generals outside the court were eagerly waiting for Zhu Yunqi's call, but after waiting, they only waited until they were disappointed.

For such military matters, Zhu Yunqi only discussed with a few civil servants before deciding on a strategy. He had no intention of discussing anything with the military personnel at all, as if he only needed the military personnel to carry out.

Soon, Zhu Yunqi and others decided on a strategy.

The next day, Zhu Yunwen took his courtiers to pay homage to the Heaven and Earth Ancestral Temple and Sheji, cut off the affiliation of Yan King Zhu Di in full view, and at the same time issued an edict to show the world.

The general idea of ​​the edict: The family is unlucky, and the relatives and uncles have repeatedly tried to rebel. Last year, the common people of Zhou wanted to do something wrong, and contacted the kings of Yan, Qi, and King Xiang to rebel. I read that everyone is relatives, and stopped the crimes of the common people of Zhou. This year, the king of Qi again I conspired with Zhu Di and Zhu Bo, King Zhu Bo of Xiang burned himself to death in fear of crime, King Zhu Mi of Qi was deposed by me as a commoner, and King Zhu Di of Yan, I think that because I am the closest to me, I am not willing to punish Zhu Di for his crimes. However, Zhu Di raised troops to cause chaos and endanger the clan society. Such actions are punishable by the ancestors of heaven and earth, which is unforgivable. Therefore, I simply sent troops to attack Zhu Di, the king of Yan. Unite with the country, sweep away the adverse atmosphere, and rule forever.

After hearing this edict, the courtiers all looked a little weird, and for a while they all agreed with Zhu Yunqi like "ah, yes yes yes".

After that, Zhu Yunqi began to mobilize troops and condemn generals.

Geng Bingwen, the marquis of Changxing, was appointed as the general who conquered the captives. Li Jian, the captain-in-law, and Ning Zhong, the governor-general, were the deputy generals on the left and right. Commanding Sheng Yong, Pan Zhong, Yang Song, Gu Cheng, Xu Kai, Li You, Chen Hui, Ping'an, etc., from Shanxi, Henan, and Shandong, they went side by side.

He set up Pingyan Chief Secretary and Zhending, Shangshu Baozhao was in charge of the affairs, promoted Cheng Ji to be the editor of Hanlin, and served as a military division, with an army of one million, intending to attack Beiping with the power of thunder.

After hearing the arrangement, the courtiers looked weird again.

Is this simply sending troops? !

Question marks popped up on many heads.

The people in the military were looking forward to it, hoping that the court would finally use them, and they would finally be able to support themselves, but they did not expect that Zhu Yunqi had arranged for two civil servants to be military advisers and in charge of affairs.

What the hell is this motherfucker?

Are you saying they don't know how to fight?Still can't trust them?

The purpose of arranging military divisions is to ask them to listen to how civil servants fight wars. The purpose of arranging military divisions is to warn them that if they don't obey, they will be fined.

This is kind of interesting.

Many generals who received the order felt inexplicably upset in their hearts. They didn't expect to encounter such a situation after fighting for a lifetime.

It's fine if you don't discuss it with them, and let them listen to others when you go out to fight. Why don't you just let the civil servants take command.

But regardless of whether they were happy or not, Zhu Yunqi's arrangement was advanced several ways, Bingfeng pointed directly at Beiping, and many people who were inclined to Zhu Di couldn't help but feel worried.

And this is not over yet, the capital of Beiping, Daning, Prince Ning's Mansion, Zhu Quan heard that Zhu Di was rebellious, and the soldiers had already started fighting, and fell to the ground in shock.

"What? My fourth brother turned against my eldest nephew?"

The servants of Prince Ning's Mansion nodded.

Zhu Quan murmured in surprise: "It has to be my fourth brother. He is so fucking brave. He cuts off his head and flips the table if he disagrees. He is not used to my nephew at all. He is a role model for me. A role model."

The subject was a little speechless and Zhu Quan was so funny, he couldn't help reminding him again: "Your Highness, should we discuss how to proceed now?"

Zhu Quan babbled twice, as if he was still thinking about Zhu Di's rebellion, and he didn't come back to his senses until the subject asked again.

He thought for a while and asked, "What's the court's reaction?"

"No news has come yet, but news will come soon."

Zhu Quan nodded, and suddenly thought of some generals in his northern capital, and said, "Our Daning capital commander Bu Wan, what's the situation with Chen Heng and the others?"

Although his fief is in Daning, the army he can control is his Yingzhou Three Guards, and the Beiping capital is also the Daning capital. The other guards are the same as the Beiping capital, and they are all controlled by the capital. Naturally, there is also a capital commander arranged by the imperial court.

In the later period of Hongwu, they were able to control the Dusi. It was Zhu Yuanzhang who was cleaning up the generals in the army. He only believed in his sons, so he delegated power to his sons. .

The subordinates had already collected the actions of the Dusi, and said: "According to the news, Bu Wan is mobilizing soldiers and intends to send troops to Songting Pass to attack Zunhua."

Speaking of this, the subject struggled for a while, and suggested: "Your Highness, let's not talk about the reaction of the court. Song Zhong from Huailai entered Juyongguan, Geng Xuan from Shanhaiguan attacked Yongping, and our Daning's Bu Wan came out of Song Dynasty. Tingguan, as far as the three parties are concerned, the King of Yan is not easy to resist, not to mention that the imperial court will definitely send troops to Xiong County, from the south to the top, if we ignore this matter, the imperial court may blame His Highness afterwards, so Your Highness still needs to consider whether to send troops to help Bu Wan, or just condemn King Yan, His Highness needs to make a decision as soon as possible."

Zhu Quan lowered his eyes and fell into deep thought.

Can you only help the eldest nephew?

No, even if you don't help Zhu Laosi, you must not help Zhu Yunqi.

There seemed to be a wind blowing in the palace, and there was also the faint sound of fighting in iron clothes.

a long time.

Zhu Quan opened his eyes and looked at his subordinates. He shook his head firmly: "Do nothing now, just wait and see."

He stood up and looked in the direction of Beiping. The fourth son has stayed in Peiping for so many years. If the fourth son can't resist the imperial court, then he will stop struggling after the fourth son's downfall and take the initiative to go to the capital to be good to his eldest nephew. But if the fourth child blocks it, he can also take advantage of the momentum to rectify Daning, and then with a hundred thousand troops in his hand, he can also plot the original land.

He is also a descendant of the royal family, and someone like Zhu Yunqi can be the emperor, so why can't Zhu Quan be the emperor.

The subordinates didn't understand Zhu Quan's arrangement, so Zhu Quan's expression was firm and he didn't want to say much.

……

Just when the clouds are moving, it seems that the wind from all over the world is blowing towards Beiping City, and Beiping seems to be just a small sailboat on the vast sea. No one thinks that capsizing is only a matter of time, the difference is only how long Zhu Di can hold on .

Liaodong soldiers leave Shanhaiguan, Daning soldiers leave Songting Pass, Song Zhong Juhuailai will definitely send troops to Juyongguan, and the imperial army marches in parallel. In such a situation, Zhu Di in Beiping is like a teddy dog, surrounded by several golden retrievers, Erha, Samoyed and other big and big people surrounded it, watching the Teddy dog ​​jump and bark.

However, at this time, the generals in Beiping had no time and no intention to care about this. Zhen Wu had already entered Miyun territory with [-] cavalry.

He dispatched scouts widely, set up many military flags, and bluffed to prevent Miyun soldiers from finding out his real strength.

And Miyunwei commanded the yamen.

Zheng Heng was listening to the report from the people under his banner: "Zhen Wu's soldiers and horses have passed Huairou County. Judging from the opponent's scouts, the strength of the troops may not be less than [-]. I ask Commander Zheng to show me how to stop the enemy."

"Stop the enemy?"

Zheng Heng frowned. Instead of answering the question, he picked up the letter that King Yan had issued to the army and civilians in Beiping and scattered around the counties.

He glanced at the generals in the hall and asked: "Have everyone read this? There are treacherous officials in the court who want to kill the King of Yan, and the King of Yan has raised troops to calm the situation. Where should we go? Let's discuss it."

After looking at each other in blank dismay, all the generals in the hall lowered their heads, and no one wanted to speak up.

Seeing the reaction of the generals, Zheng Heng felt amused. He thought for a while, and said again: "Okay, let me ask another question. Now that Zhen Wu is attacking with five thousand soldiers, who will stop the enemy? I I won’t let you fight poorly, but gather 8000 people for you, who will go?”

Still no one spoke.

Who dares to talk about it? Everyone in Miyun knew Zhen Wu relatively early. Some of them fought with Zhen Wu in Gubeikou in the early years. At that time, Zhen Wu was only a hundred households. There are thousands of people, even the soldiers are left behind, they don't care about it, they have to kill the generals, it is really a mess, and later they are dispatched to fight, and they often have contacts with Zhen Wu, and they are even more aware of Zhen Wu's bravery well aware.
