Chapter 513 Helpless and Dangerous

The prince of Ming Dynasty is in the capital.

Many Han officials were more shy and did not dare to go to see Zhu Cihong immediately.

Few people who want to try to commit crimes against the wind to meet the prince can't find a way.

That is why Hong Chengchou was able to kneel in front of the prince, showing just the right amount of shame and determination on his face: "Your Highness, the commander of the Zhenwu Battalion of the Ming Dynasty and the supervisory censor, Guo Weijing, Minister of the Ministry of War, asked to see him."

Just in time, the two flags returned to the capital, and the army slowly dispersed in Changping Prefecture. A group of Ming generals who vowed not to surrender were also carefully brought to the capital.

After learning that the prince of Ming Dynasty was in the capital, they didn't want to die. After a short period of despair, Guo Weijing discussed with the generals.

Go to the capital to pay homage to the prince, and then
It is not bad to die in the capital.

"So that His Highness knows that Guo Weijing and others have never met His Majesty, and they don't know the inside story of my Qing Dynasty, so..."

Hong Chengchou knew it.

People want to live longer.

At the same time, they also wanted to use their lives in the capital to warn Zhu Cihong, admonishing him to commit suicide and not to become a political tool of the savage Tartars, adding shame to Ming Dynasty.

The two are not in conflict.

Zhu Cihong had a thorough look at the current situation of the black flag these days, and there was also a record of Zhu Youjian's re-meeting with Hong Chengchou and Zu Dashou.

So he shook his head solemnly: "See you tomorrow, my third brother and Aimee will have a reunion tomorrow, and I will call them again then. Is this feasible? Father, will he agree?"

"Your Majesty said to let His Highness entertain them."

That's OK.

"Then please send someone to report this matter to them, but don't say that the third younger brother and Aimee are also there, so as not to worry them."

"Your Highness cares about your subjects, and I have thanked Your Highness on their behalf. In addition, His Majesty's handwriting will be handed down to your ministers. Your Highness, please accept it."

Hong Chengchou shouted, and Zhu Cihong immediately knelt down: "Saint Gongan."

After sending the letter, Hong Chengchou resigned, saying that he had to deliver letters to his younger siblings.

And Zhu Cihong returned to his residence in the Hall of Martial Arts with the handbook. Before he opened it, he thought it was Zhu Youjian's order, what he did, and the political arrangements for the captives he entertained.

Open it up and take a look.

Instead, he asked him if he had a woman he liked, and if not, he could start looking for one.

He also mentioned the marriage that Zhu Cihong made in Shunguo a few days ago, Li Guo's daughter was not impossible in Zhu Youjian's opinion, and asked him if he had seen her and how she looked.

Zhu Cihong was at a loss for a moment.

And with the return of the two-flag army to the court, it was a bit more lively, and it wasn't just just lively for a while.

The concubines of Emperor Fulin of the Qing Dynasty have all been settled, and the queen has not yet been established, but the day of marriage will be next month.

At the end of this month, it will be the time for the wedding of the master of the black and red banner.

The capital was full of jubilation, but Tianjin, which was only two hundred miles away to the southeast of the capital, was bursting with gunfire, soldiers were constantly wandering, and tens of thousands of troops were tossing about on a small piece of land.

On a hot day, the gunner was shirtless, holding the fire to light the cannon fuze timidly.

Originally, the gunners of the black flag were well paid and paid high, so they were usually arrogant and walked with wind.

But yesterday, when a cannon was blown up, two of the gunners were lost on the spot, and the other one had more air intake and less air output at the back. It taught many gunners and soldiers a new lesson, and it may last for half a month.

At the point of the fuse, the gunner backed away in a hurry.

The eight-pound gun that was blown up yesterday, if this 50-pound gun was blown up, it would depend on God's will whether people within a radius of [-] meters could survive.

Fortunately, the cannon fired steadily, and the shells went straight to the defense line of the Tianjin Weiming Army, and exploded on the top of the trenches.

But the Ming army under the trenches has already experienced.

Just shrink and you're done.

Waiting for orders in the hiding cave, gossiping for a while.

It didn't take long to blow up today. After dozens of cannons were fired on all fronts, they were taken away. The higher-ups didn't let them go out to fight with gongs and drums. Instead, they ordered them to cook on the spot.

This has been going on for a few days.

It is said that it is a savage's strategy, and the savage will rush over when he gets used to it.

In fact, these cannons were shown to Gao Jie.

"That's all!? You kid, don't take it for yourself!"

"Don't talk nonsense, it's just a small amount after sending it out, if you can't do it, you can find it on me yourself."

Pushing the crotch to the crotch and opening the crotch, the Ming army who went to fetch food grinned and said.

"Hibachi! I cut your eggs and cooked them all in one pot!"

"Calm down! I'm afraid I won't even have to drink porridge in the future."

Then it's really a one-pot stew.

A pot of porridge with particularly conspicuous rice grains was obviously not worthy of the threat that existed behind the rumbling cannon before.

Comparing the two, no matter how stupid a soldier is, he can know how serious the situation is today.

Gao Jie naturally knew it too.

With his gray beard and hair and the appearance of a veteran, he can be regarded as a veteran of the Ming Dynasty. Now he is worried about the situation of the army under his command. He looks forward to a reply from the south every day, but all he has received recently is bad news.

Those who walked by land were captured by savages.

Those who walked by water were also captured by wildlings.

Now Gao Jie has [-] troops under his command, and many people in Tianjin Weizhong are eating horses, and the treatment of their troops is not good. There are too many troops, which makes transportation difficult, and there is not much food in stock.

It doesn't take a month to run out of food.

Heiqi showed off his force every day and sent several letters to persuade him to surrender, the meaning of which was very clear.

Just wait.

Gao Jie couldn't fight again.

There was no news from the south, and no one came to rescue.

Either be hungry enough to eat people and be defeated, or surrender voluntarily, and maybe it will end well.

But Gao Jie is well aware of his character and reputation, so it is impossible to turn his back on Daming like this.

Daming treats him well.

Therefore, in Zhu Youjian's eyes, Gao Jie, who persisted for at most a month, threw the letter of persuasion into the brazier again in front of his generals, gritted his teeth and drew his knife to cut off the table in front of him.

"Anyone in the army who dares to surrender to the Qing will be executed!"

With this roar, the dust in the room shook off, and all the generals bowed their heads in promise.

He was born as a bandit in Shaanxi.

It is also because of his background as a bandit that he still has a sense of loyalty in his heart.

But they didn't know that at this time, the Ming court didn't care about him at all. Only Huang Degong had been sending a small group of troops to infiltrate north, into the territory controlled by the black flag, and try to obtain information about Gao Jie.

Zhu Linyuan, the eldest son and only heir of Emperor Longwu Zhu Yujian, was assassinated.

When I was studying with the lecturer, the eunuch who was hiding in the dark climbed the wall and attacked with a blowing arrow. Fortunately, the prince was reciting the text at that time. I just squinted at the side and found it just in time!Protect yourself!With a flick of his sleeve, the blow arrow was knocked down and it survived.

But the eunuch saw that he couldn't do it for himself, and then he took poison and committed suicide.

Afterwards, Jin Yiwei took poison and used it on poultry, and died in an instant.

After checking the identity of the eunuch, it turned out that he was not a member of the palace, but sneaked into the palace with the eunuch's clothes and a fake Yufu badge.

It's good not to mention the news, but Zhu Yujian, who was already very angry when he said it, wobbled all over his body.

The Nanjing Imperial Palace lacks repairs and is small in size. Over the years, it has gradually been repaired, but it has not been expanded. In this way, people from outside the palace have come in!

Although the place where the prince studies is not a heavily guarded place!

"The people in my palace can come and go whenever they want!?"
