I want to be a grandson

Chapter 102
After all, Yuelu Timur was only the commander of a guard, and he didn't have a lot of ammunition reserves.

Coupled with the fact that Qu Neng kept venting gunpowder on the top of the city, the Hongwu cannon spewed out dense shells as if they didn't need money.

Once Yuelu Timur's cannon entered the range, it would be blown to pieces immediately, and even the gunner was smashed to pieces.

Yuelu Timur tried several times, but he couldn't push the cannon forward, nor could he send the shells to the top of the city to cause damage.

Not to mention destroying the artillery on the city wall.

Therefore, on the first day of the battle, the two sides were almost equal to artillery fire, and there were not many close-up firefights.

Yuelu Timur knew that he couldn't afford to wait, he couldn't spend his soldiers and horses here, and once the soldiers and horses in Sichuan were assembled, he would attack them.

At that time, I will either retreat, or I will desperately take down the city and capture the emperor and grandson.

Time is running out!

So he must take this place immediately, and take prisoner the emperor and grandson who disturbed his peace!
Therefore, in the second day's battle, Yuelu Timur ordered the soldiers to attack under the cover of artillery, and the musketeers and archers attacked.

Of course, artillery cover is better than nothing!
Qu Neng was not in a hurry, he placed on the top of the city, besides the Hongwu cannon, there were also large and small artillery, which were just able to carry out medium-range strikes.

Therefore, Yuelu Timur's soldiers and horses paid a lot of casualties before they came close.

However, Qu Neng had been prepared for a long time. The close-range artillery attack, coupled with the condescending shooting of the gunners, still prevented them from getting any advantage!
And fortunately, the weather these days is very good and there is no continuous rain, so it is a great help for the court soldiers and horses with complete firearms.

The fight between the two sides was very lively, and the smoke from the ignited gunpowder permeated the battlefield thinly.

However, soldiers who are used to the smell of gunpowder have long been accustomed to it.

The sound of the booming artillery spread far away, even the birds in the forest did not dare to drop the branches, they fluttered their wings in panic, hurriedly identified the direction, and ran for their lives in a hurry.

But at this time in the capital, in the East Side Hall of the Wenhua Hall of the East Palace, which is also the Benren Hall.

Huang Zicheng is teaching Zhu Yunqi, but the content he is teaching now has nothing to do with schoolwork.

Huang Zicheng lowered his voice slightly and said, "Your Highness, now His Highness has received the emperor's order to put down the Jianchangwei rebellion. Once he is put down,

Then he will come back with credit, and in this way he will win the Sacred Heart, His Highness must pay attention at this time..."

Zhu Yunqi asked nervously, "Mr. Huang, is the Jianchangwei rebellion easy to put down?"

Huang Zicheng thought for a while and replied, "In terms of soldiers and horses alone, Jianchangwei's rebel army only has more than 1 soldiers and horses, so it is not difficult to put down..."

Hearing what he said, Zhu Yunqi became even more nervous, and his hands could not help but clasped tightly together.

Huang Zicheng went on to say: "However, Jianchangwei is located in an important road, the terrain is steep, and there are many other tribes around. Yuelu Timur is very powerful in the local area. As long as he can't hold on, even if he has [-] troops Difficult to capture..."

"Isn't it difficult for Yunxi to calm down?" Zhu Yunqi asked with some joy.

Huang Zicheng nodded and said: "It's really not easy to capture Jianchang Guard, and after the Third Highness arrives in Sichuan, he still needs to mobilize the local Guard's garrison, prepare food, supplies, artillery and ammunition, and it will not take several months. It's hard to calm down..."

"Then he won't be able to come back for several months?"

"Indeed!"

Huang Zicheng instructed: "Your Highness, you should take advantage of this time to perform more filial piety in front of His Majesty. As long as His Highness's filial piety is done well, it can offset the merits of the Third Highness!"

"I need to know what Jane is in the Emperor's Heart! As long as you win the Sacred Heart, no amount of credit will help!"

Zhu Yunqi nodded solemnly and said: "Mr. Huang, please rest assured, I will definitely visit the emperor's grandfather more often, so as not to let him be alone..."

Only then did Huang Zicheng show a smile of approval on his face: "Your Highness is very filial! I admire you very much!"

Zhu Yunqi saluted and said, "Thank you, Mr. Huang, for your teaching!"

"Your Highness, you are welcome..."

……

At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang was dealing with government affairs in Jinshen Hall.

But at this time, he was a little absent-minded, and he had not dealt with much official business for a long time, and the progress was very slow.

"Ugh……"

Zhu Yuanzhang sighed, put down the brush in his hand, looked up at the sky outside the window, and was full of thoughts for a while.

Qingtong brought a bowl of tea to his side and put it down carefully.

"My lord, drink some tea to moisten your throat..."

Zhu Yuanzhang came back to his senses, reached out to take the tea bowl, but stopped in mid-air.

He whispered, "Qingtong, do you think the third child has arrived in Chengdu now?"

Qing Tong calculated the time, and replied: "If you go back to the emperor, according to the time, the Third Highness should arrive in Chengdu by now to meet the King of Shu."

Zhu Yuanzhang frowned again and said: "You said why he was so anxious, he left with his guards, and we were still thinking about teaching him how to fight and how to suppress rebellion, but it turned out that he had already set off... "

His face was stern again, and he said displeasedly, "Do you think he is conceited and self-righteous?"

"He, a grandson of the Taiping Emperor who has never even been out of the capital, still knows how to fight wars and put down rebellions?"

"Snapped"

Zhu Yuanzhang slapped his thigh, and said regretfully: "We shouldn't let him go! Those rebellious thieves are easy to deal with, they are vicious and murderous... He is really going... In case he is scared stupid, If we are defeated...wouldn't it be a shame for us..."

He said with an annoyed look again: "Qingtong, do you think he will stay with the King of Shu and wait for our counter-insurgency army to be assembled before going to counter-insurgency?"

Zhu Yuanzhang babbled and said: "But he left in such a hurry, it's really worrying... I don't know if the King of Shu can control him... This child is wild now, our son of the King of Shu, is he still I really can't hold him down..."

"The commander of Sichuan's capital is Qu Neng... um...he is a strong general, and there should be no hindrance for him to lead the army to suppress the rebellion..."

He rubbed his brows again and said, "The commander-in-chief should sit in the rear and make arrangements to deal with it. Can't you go to the front line? That's what the vanguard generals do..."

"This bastard doesn't know if he understands it. He has learned the art of war before, right?... Yes, we have someone teach them... But that's just talk on paper, it might not be practical..."

"Qingtong, do you think we should issue an imperial decree to let him stay in the Shu Palace and not act rashly? By the way, we have to give orders to Qu Neng and Xu Huizu,
Let them watch him carefully, and don't listen to him... If... if we lose the battle, wouldn't it be a shame for us..."

Qingtong was laughing in his heart, but he didn't dare to laugh out loud.

He said like an old man talking: "My lord, you didn't show a good face when the third highness was in the palace. Why are you so worried about your highness just after leaving for a few days?"

Zhu Yuanzhang stared, pretending to be strong and said: "Who is worried? We are afraid that he doesn't understand military affairs. If he loses the battle, won't it embarrass us and make our face ugly..."
