Daming: From the end of Hongwu

Chapter 259 - Chapter 257

In Zhu Di's room.

Zhen Wu slept quite heavily this time. When he woke up, he felt that the fatigue of the past few days was gone, and he became energetic again. Jumped out of bed.

Not far away, Zhu Di, who had been studying how to fight after going south, glanced up, then looked down at the map and the court's dynamic military newspaper again, and just said something faintly.

"woke up?"

Zhen Wu glanced back at the bed he was sleeping on, and recognized that it was Zhu Di's room and Zhu Di's bed, and he was a little embarrassed.

This…

Having slept in the same bed with Zhu Di, I don't know if it counts as unlocking an achievement.

Zhu Di probably guessed that Zhen Wu would be embarrassed, so he chuckled twice: "You and I are welcome, anyway, if the Zunhua matter is not resolved, I won't be able to sleep, just squint on the table, but you are so tired, Wouldn't it be reasonable for me to wake you up? Let someone put you on the bed, and you can sleep more comfortably, but if you don't wake up, I will have to wake you up. The soldiers have already rested, Going to march now."

With that said, Zhu Di began to simply pack up the military newspapers on the table.

Seeing this, Zhen Wu stepped forward to help tidy up, and at the same time thanked: "Thank you, Father, for taking care of me."

"Thank you, we are all a family. Besides, you should be able to tell that I have always treated you differently from other sons-in-law. I really treat you as my son, not much different from Gao Xu and the others."

Zhu Di waved his hand, what he said seemed natural and casual, and he didn't know if it was really out of love, or if he deliberately poured this kind of emotional chicken soup on Zhen Wu.

But the next sentence made Zhen Wu sweat for a moment.

Zhu Di patted Zhen Wu's arm and said: "Your Majesty is so sick, and Gao Xu's temper is quite reckless, only you can make me feel at ease, so even if you want to do more for me, you should also pay more attention to your body, after all This battle is not going to end overnight."

hiss.

The son is so sick, you should encourage the copy of it?
That's not a damn good thing to say.

The problem is that he doesn't need Zhu Di to paint big cakes either!
Zhen Wu's hand trembling accidentally when he was packing up the military newspaper, he hurriedly concealed it, packed the military newspaper in a hurry, put it in the box, and said seriously: "Your Majesty is resolute and intelligent at the same time. Gao Xu is unparalleled in courage and leadership, and Zhen Wu is just a bit reckless, but the three of us must encourage each other to help father Wang Jing achieve success."

Zhu Di hummed, but his expression didn't seem to like Zhen Wu's seriousness, as if he had told the pigs his surging emotions, so he waved his hand and said, "Okay, you don't need to put a high hat on them, since you Wake up, go down and take your soldiers."

"Yes." Seeing that Zhu Di told him to back down, Zhen Wu hurriedly backed out with fists in his hands.

After he went out, he breathed a sigh of relief, but he couldn't help thinking in his heart, did he try to stay away from this family after he got the title? Regardless of whether he was involved or not, just from an emotional point of view, he didn't want to see the two brothers part ways.

Moreover, this family is not a simple character. After parting ways, when they fight, those who can fight will come and go, but Zhu Di doesn't know what's on his mind, and he is happy to watch the fun.

Ugh.

Zhen Wu sighed, maybe Zhu Di would also like to watch his excitement, what will happen when the day comes?
In this world, how can people really do everything according to their minds.

Forget it, don't think about it for now.

Zhen Wu shook his head, found Cao Xiaoman and the others, and hurried back to his generals.

Now they have more than 3 soldiers.

In addition to Zhu Di's personal command of more than 2 troops, Zhen Wu, as a deputy general, unified the ten thousand troops as the front army and vanguard. His subordinates Tan Yuan and Wang Zhen were divided into left and right, each leading 3000 infantry troops, while the remaining [-] cavalry Military equipment is directly controlled by Zhen Wu.

Zhang Wu, Xue Lu, Gu Ming, Liu Sheng and others all served thousands of households in the cavalry army, and they were in charge of the soldiers.

Their right guards are basically filled in this ten thousand army, and they belong to Zhen Wu Zheng'er's team.

After Zhen Wu returned to the front army, he called Tan Yuan, Wang Zhen and others to find out what had happened while he was away, and ordered Xue Lu and the cavalry to send scouts to scout the way.

After some careful arrangements, the army moved again and headed towards Zunhua.

After a quick march all the way.

When it was dark, they finally arrived at Zunhua City. After the two armies joined forces, the strength reached 5 people, which made everyone on both sides look happy.

In the evening, Zhu Di called all the generals to discuss the matter.

Only then did Zhen Wu realize that the soldiers of the Daning army on the opposite side had withdrawn and headed towards Songting Pass. Zhen Wu and Zhu Di looked at each other with excitement in their eyes, guessing that the plan should be going well.

The rest of the generals didn't know Zhen Wu's plan, they were still discussing the intention of Daning's soldiers excitedly. Zhen Wu glanced at Zhang Yu, and followed Zhang Yu's example, pretending to listen to everyone's speech, but he said nothing. Don't say anything.

Zhu Di also had the same thoughts. Before the plan was completely successful, it would not be easy for too many people to know.

Therefore, everyone discussed livelyly for a while before Zhu Di made a decision, waiting in full force and watching the changes.

After the meeting ended, Zhen Wu immediately went to find the third child.

When he saw Lao San, he found that in just a dozen days, Lao San seemed to be a little darker, but his whole person's energy was more capable.

The third child was also very happy to see Zhen Wu. He smiled and told Zhen Wu how powerful they were, how they marched, and how they broke through Tongzhou, Jizhou, Zunhua, etc. The third child was a little elated, like A kid showing off his abilities made Zhen Wuting feel relieved, and couldn't help but feel a little proud of the third child.

Zhen Wu patted the third child on the shoulder and said hello repeatedly.

"Do you miss home?" Seeing that the third child was tired, Zhen Wu asked. This was also the first time that the third child had been away from home for such a long time.

The third child poked his neck and said: "Man, how can you be homesick? When we finish the war and return home in a good mood, then we can be with your mother, Xiaoliu Xiaoqi, and... my wife, please talk about it." .”

Zhen Wu smiled, and just about to say something, suddenly a soldier came over, saying that Zhu Di asked him to go to discuss things, Zhen Wu nodded, and looked at the third child again.

There was a look of reluctance on the face of the third child, but he also smiled freely and said: "Brother, since His Highness is looking for you, you should go there first. I will go talk to Tan Zhong and the others. I haven't seen the fourth and fifth brothers-in-law for a long time."

Zhen Wu nodded, then patted the third child's arm heavily, then turned and left.

The third child looked at Zhen Wu's leaving back, and was inexplicably dazed. He talked happily with Zhen Wu, but this time he faced the battlefield directly, and realized how dangerous it was. Starting from the Qihua Gate, his body Minor injuries have never been broken, which shows how many crises Zhen Wu has encountered in the army for ten years.

He seems to have never shared anything for his eldest brother.

The elder brother just carried the family on his shoulders and walked a long, long way without saying a word.

In the past, he used to proudly show off to others that his eldest brother was invincible and always the first in every battle, but now after he saw Zhen Wu, he couldn't help but think of how impoverished his family was after his father passed away, and how his eldest brother was always helpless. Gu De stepped into the army.

Be a soldier.

As long as you have experienced the battle.

The sound of brutal fighting would keep echoing in the ears, often disturbing people's sleep at night.

At this time, someone suddenly patted the third child on the shoulder: "Hey, what are you thinking, so engrossed."

The third child was startled back to his senses, turned around and saw that it was Zhang Fu, quickly hid the inexplicable weakness in his heart, let a smile echo on his face again, and said: "It's nothing, let's go, let's take you to meet some friends, When I was young in Beiping City, those few people often gambled with me and other guards on horse races."

Zhang Fu became interested: "Let's go."

The two talked and laughed to find Tan Zhong, and Wang Tong went.

And Zhen Wu had already met Zhu Di at this time.

Seeing Zhen Wu coming, Zhu Di said to Zhang Yu, "Shimei, tell me, you should know the specific situation best."

Zhang Yu, courtesy name Shimei.

The word is the extension of the name, jade, the beauty handed down from generation to generation.

And there are words, which means that Zhang Yu is not from a grassroots background like Zhen Wu. It is said that before Zhang Yu came to the Ming Dynasty, he was an old Yuan official to the Privy Council Zhiyuan, and the Privy Council was the highest military institution in the Yuan Dynasty. The Privy Council was the largest, but generally The crown prince took up his post, and further down was Zhiyuan, a serious minister of the second rank, similar to the left and right governors of the current five armies' governor's mansion.

This can also explain why Zhu Di thinks highly of Zhang Yu.

After Zhang Yu heard Zhu Di's words, he nodded and told him how to implement the letter after he received the letter to Bu Wan. Then, he paused and said again: "There was something wrong with the Daning barracks this morning. In my panic, I seemed to deliberately sell a loophole to lure me to attack, but after thinking about it, I didn't move lightly. Since the letter said that Bu Wan wanted to lead troops to join us, if I rushed out, it might not be appropriate , Sure enough, at noon, seeing that we hadn't moved, they slowly began to withdraw their troops, panicked but not flustered, presumably Chen Heng must have made progress."

Zhu Di nodded and said: "It's right not to move, maybe it's Bu Wan and Liu Zhen's probing move, so that Bu Wan can prove that he has nothing to do with me."

After finishing speaking, Zhu Di stood up and walked a few steps: "Looking at it now, we can only wait for news from Chen Heng. Once Chen Heng has good news, we can move south to fight against the imperial army."

Zhen Wu also agreed at this time: "What Your Highness said is very true. Now we are within three or five days. Zhu Neng has also conquered Xiong County. Let's fight for three to five days, but Songting Pass has to be cautious, we should wait until Chen Heng's news arrives, wait for him to grasp the situation and ensure that the Daning Army will not leave Songting Pass again, and then we move."

Both Zhu Di and Zhang Yu nodded in agreement.

In the Daning barracks, Liu Zhen was also discussing with Chen Heng.

Liu Zhen said angrily: "I deliberately sold a flaw to Yan Jun in the morning, but Yan Jun was unmoved, and Yan Jun Zhang Yu dared to use [-] troops to fight our [-] troops, which is enough to show how confident he is, so judging from the letter The content of the content should be true, and Bu Wan really intends to help King Yan."

Chen Heng nodded and said: "Yes, I never thought that Bu Wan is such a person. He is paid by the imperial court, not from King Yan, so why would he want to help King Yan? It's really embarrassing to do so. I, Chen Heng, are ashamed to be with him."

This statement made Liu Zhen agree very much, and looked at Chen Heng, as if looking at a like-minded person, feeling very cordial.

At this time, Chen Heng's face became tangled and he said: "But we are the lieutenants after all, and the chief general is tied up. Although it is understandable, it is not reasonable. Do you think we should quickly explain this matter to the court? And we It is also necessary to bring the army back to Songting Pass as soon as possible, or else wait for the Yan army to react, maybe there will be another moth."

Liu Zhen nodded again and again: "Yes, you are right. According to your words, let's do this, so that you can order the entire army to evacuate at an accelerated rate, and I will write the memorial, and add your name eight hundred lijia at that time." Send it to the court urgently."

"Okay." Chen Heng agreed happily.

Then, the two moved together.

……

The messenger traveled day and night, and a few days later, the imperial court received an urgent letter from Chen Heng and Liu Zhen.

Zhu Yunqi threw the memorial to the ground angrily in the study, and said angrily: "Bu Wan dares to conspire with Yan thief, ten thousand deaths will not stop my hatred!"

After Huang Zicheng picked up the memorial from the ground and looked at it, he stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, I don't mean to be angry. It's better to think about countermeasures as soon as possible."

He is very calm.

Zhu Yunxuan snorted and said: "What do you need to think about? I plan to dismiss Bu Wan from all positions, put him in prison, and first ransack his home. After the war is over, I will deal with him properly."

Huang Zicheng thought about it for a while, and this disposal is also appropriate. If the Daning Army joins forces with the Yan Army, the troubles caused by Zhu Di will increase exponentially. Thinking of this, Huang Zicheng asked again: "Then, Your Majesty, Your Majesty. How does the Ning army pawn act?"

Zhu Yunwen's eyes flickered a few times and said: "Order Chen Heng, Liu Zhen, and the soldiers to strictly control the soldiers, not to go out of Songting Pass. I have soldiers and horses from all over the world. I don't need this kind of soldiers with two hearts. "

Huang Zicheng nodded, agreeing with Zhu Yunqi's words.

Their consciousness is surprisingly consistent with Zhu Di and the others. The Daning army can just stay still, but the difference between the two sides is that Zhu Di and others are trying to gain time. The result is that they have ten times as many troops as Zhu Di, and they don't need Daning soldiers at all.

very confident.

This is also a good thing.

Suddenly, Zhu Yunqi asked again: "What happened to the Liaodong soldiers? Why have Geng Yu and Wu Gao in Shanhaiguan not moved yet?"

Huang Zicheng specially worked overtime these days to get acquainted with the border map of Ming Dynasty, and he could really say a few things about it, so he pretended to be confident and said: "Your Majesty doesn't know, the Shanhaiguan guards alone are not enough to go out to help the battle. Assemble the soldiers and horses of the Liaodong Guards. However, most of the Liaodong Guards are border guards. The assembly needs to be cautious, and the troops must be left to guard against Mongolia. Moreover, Liaodong is deep and wide, and the only way to enter the army is the Shanhaiguan Road. Therefore, whether it is assembly or marching , it will take a little longer.”

Zhu Yunwen listened to Huang Zicheng's words clearly and logically. Although he was very dissatisfied, he could only nod his head irritably.

He muttered a few words, King Ning, King Liao, thinking that these two kings are vassals in charge of the northern border, and they are not a small threat. Once they conspire with Zhu Di, the chaos will be too great, and he feels a wave of pain in his heart. He said cruelly: "In this way, pass an order to King Ning and King Liao to cut down their three guards' rights, and let them enter Beijing quickly without any mistakes."

"Follow the order." Huang Zicheng leaned over to accept the order.

Now that Zhu Di had mobilized troops, then King Ning and King Liao also arranged for the grass to beat the rabbit, and there was nothing wrong with it.

……

Several orders from Zhu Yunqi hurriedly spread to the north.

When the king of Liao received the order, he threw down the three guards and horses in fright, and rushed to the capital. He was in Liaodong, and most of the generals would not listen to him, so he had nothing to do. However, when King Ning received the order, Throwing the imperial decree on the ground, he snorted disdainfully.

"Let me go back to the capital. Why didn't the old man let me go when he died? It's too late now, and he still wants to cut off my third guard. If the third guard needs my authorization from the imperial court to command the movement, the king will be killed directly on the pillar. When I spent all these years in vain."

King Ning's confidant, a little worried, said with a bitter face: "Your Highness."

"What's wrong?"

King Ning raised his eyebrows and said, "If you want to go to the capital, you can go. I won't stop you."

This sentence seemed to make the cronies unhappy.

King Ning suddenly showed a smiling face again, and coaxed: "Are you kidding, why am I willing to let you go to the capital, but you have to know, will I have a good life if I go to the capital? Cut me, you can see his heart, so the capital really can't go, it's better to stay in Daning, he still sends troops to beat me, if you really push me, believe it or not, I will directly raise troops and turn against him like the fourth brother, and make a big fuss Isn't it better than being insulted by him?"

The cronies also know King Ning's temperament, so they don't want to say anything when they see this, but they just go down and ask people to write to the court. King Ning is seriously ill and can't go, so as to delay time.

At this moment outside Songting Pass, Zhu Di in Zunhua City finally received a secret letter from Chen Heng, in which Chen Heng described Zhu Yunqi's will in detail.

Zhu Di laughed out of joy.

This is really a way to beat him to death with a stick, but if he doesn't use it, then don't blame him and Zhu Yunqi for a few tricks.

Zhu Di quickly called the generals of Zhenwu and told them the good news.

All of a sudden everyone cheered.

These days, their life is really difficult, even if it is still difficult now, but at least they can breathe.

Zhen Wu also breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that before the news was uncertain, no one was worried, but now it is all right, at least the Peking Mansion is out of crisis in a short period of time, and he can fight with the imperial army with all his might.

Zhu Di was equally touched at the moment.

He looked at the generals and thought of the 20 days since the army was raised, and his confidence suddenly doubled. Who would dare to believe that he, Zhu Di, was able to integrate the Beiping Mansion in just [-] days after he raised the army in a hurry.

It even dispelled all the crises in Beiping Mansion, and even sent troops to take the initiative to go south.

After all, it is Jing Nan who takes the initiative, or else it is called Jing Nan, but it ends up being beaten at the door of the house, that would be too shameful.

Zhu Di waited until all the generals had calmed down a bit, then got up and ordered: "There is no crisis in Beiping Mansion now, all the generals will follow me south to Jingnan, and meet with the imperial army for a while."

All the generals stood up to take orders, everyone's faces were a little excited, even if there was only a little room for people to breathe, it was enough to make the generals, all of a sudden, high-spirited.

Afterwards, Zhu Di asked people to disperse and ordered all the generals to go down to prepare, but Zhu Di left behind Zhen Wu, Zhang Yu and other core generals until they were the only ones left in the room.

Zhu Di opened his mouth and said: "The old monk asked me to write a letter to show weakness, to win the sympathy of some people in the court, and to let those people help us beat the side drums. I will keep you here to discuss how we should write this letter of weakness. "

"Didn't the old monk write a letter?" Zhen Wu asked curiously.

This matter was discussed by a group of big bosses, which is somewhat unreliable. Even if Zhu Di has been educated since childhood, it is no problem for you to let him wield knives and guns, but if you want to write a memorial with brilliant writing, don't talk about it.

Zhu Di said unhappily: "The old monk said, it's better for me to write it myself, so that the feelings are more sincere, but you also know me, I don't have that literary talent."

Zhen Wu and Zhang Yu looked at each other and shook their heads together.

"Your Highness, it's not that we don't help you with ideas, but Your Highness, it's better to listen to the old monk. What the old monk said is quite reasonable."

After Zhu Di thought for a while, he angrily waved back a few people.

Next, Zhu Di kept himself in the room for a whole afternoon, and only then did he write a small composition of less than [-] words.

Zhen Wu originally thought that he would write about nothing, but fortunately after seeing it, he found that smart people can basically do well in everything they do.

In this short composition, I don't talk about literary talent, but Zhu Di expressed what should be expressed. Not only did he say that he was pitiful, but he also made Zhu Yunwen yin and yang.

The beginning of the article is your grandfather, how did my father start a business, and how he wanted to have more sons, but in the end you wanted to kill your grandfather's son as soon as you came to power. I don't blame you, I just blame the treacherous officials.

Then Zhu Di started to have a relationship with Zhu Yunqi again, saying that we are uncles and nephews, this relationship can stand a knife on the battlefield, don't let others affect our relationship and so on.

In the end, the voice changed, and it was written that there is an old saying that a trapped beast is still fighting, why, because I was afraid of death, and I, Zhu Di, was also afraid of death, so I had to rise up and resist. You have to take pity on your uncle who is getting old, for this sake Please forgive your uncle, so that your uncle will save his life and the generals of the Yan army will no longer be afraid of death, and we will return to Beiping obediently. This is the luck of Ming Dynasty and the Zhu family.

Zhen Wu's eyes lit up when he saw the last sentence, and the last sentence would be a bit interesting, and it will depend on how Zhu Yunqi answered it.

Doesn't Zhu Yunqi claim to be kind?

Zhu Di begged for mercy, but you will not forgive him.

……

Afterwards, when Zhu Di led his army to the south gradually, his memorial to show weakness was also sent to the court by the fast horse.

Sure enough, as Daoyan expected, some people in the court who did not agree with Zhu Yunqi's use of troops appeared at once, and they all pleaded with Zhu Yunqi for helping Zhu Di, trying to make the two make peace.

Zhu Yunwen retreated angrily, even after returning to the study, his anger was hard to dissipate, and he didn't calm down until he smashed it.

Make peace? !
Make peace with shit.

He has the upper hand, so why should he make peace?So much food and grass have been consumed, is it possible to say no to farming at the end? !
Once his army moves, Zhu Di can be crushed to death in less than two months.

Let him let go now? !

Huang Zicheng looked at Zhu Yunqi still panting heavily, and persuaded with anger: "Your Majesty, don't care about what those people say, the decision to send troops is right, we just need to implement it firmly, and wait until King Yan's soldiers and horses are defeated." After falling, naturally some wind noises will be reversed."

Zhu Yunwen tried to calm down and nodded.

However, after thinking about it for a while, he said, "I know Zhu Di's intentions. Isn't he just trying to take the opportunity to make people criticize me? You will go down to preach the will in a while, and say that I read it for the sake of family affection, let the soldiers treat King Yan kindly on the battlefield, don't let me bear the name of killing my uncle, this is enough to show my benevolence."

is it enough?
In Zhu Yunxuan's heart, Zhu Di raised troops and caused chaos. His words are tantamount to a great kindness. After the world hears about it, who can not praise him for his benevolence and compassion.

Huang Zicheng thought about it for a while, and felt that this would really help Zhu Yunqi's reputation, so he nodded his head.

However, at the next moment, Zhu Yunqi spoke again and stopped Huang Zicheng.

However, this time his tone was full of viciousness and insidiousness.

"Zhu Di has the name of my uncle. I can show mercy, but others don't have to. Even if I spare his life, I will make him suffer for the rest of his life." Zhu Yunwen said fiercely, with a sharp light in his eyes and said: " Last time, didn’t you say that Yong’an Junma’s hometown is in Wuji? Yongping Junma’s family is also in the capital. You inform me and have them arrested for me. I want to see how his sons-in-law betrayed him. What do you think?"

In Zhu Yunwen's heart, under the threat of his relatives, how could Zhu Di's son-in-law not return to the court, and how could Zhu Di not be emotionally damaged when his son-in-law was stabbed in the back.

In the study, Zhu Yunwen had a sneer at the corner of his mouth, even if the sun shines on his face, there is not much kindness.
