Daming: I can’t kill such a greedy prince-in-law?

Chapter 286 Beiping City can throw Ouyang Lun away, but Ouyang Lun must die! (Please subscribe!!)

Fu Youde and Lan Yu looked at each other, and Fu Youde smiled and said: "To be honest with Song Guogong, the Grand Master did give me a lot of advice when we set off."

"Oh!" Song Guogong Feng Sheng said quickly: "You two should talk quickly, so that I can know what to do next!"

Fu Youde said: "Your Majesty, this is a good time for us to eradicate Ouyang Lun!"

Ah!

Feng Sheng was startled and said quickly: "You two, this is a national crisis. Do we still want to attack Ouyang Lun? If His Majesty finds out about this, none of us will survive!"

Lan Yu said at this time: "My lord, have you forgotten how far Ouyang Lun has pushed our Huaixi Party!"

Feng Sheng said solemnly: "Of course my father-in-law has not forgotten this, but now that the Beiyuan army has broken through the Great Wall, it is the duty of us generals to protect our homes and the country. If there is internal strife at this time, I am afraid it will give the Beiyuan people a chance! It’s better to wait until this battle is over. After all, as long as we defeat the Beiyuan army, with this achievement, we will punish Ouyang Lun severely to His Majesty!"

"My lord, you are confused!" Fu Youde shook his head.

"My Lord is confused? Why do you say that, Youde?" Feng Sheng asked quickly.

"Your Excellency, we have experienced so many trials and hardships together, and we are all members of the Huaixi Party. I will speak out what I think today!" Fu Youde said in a deep voice: "The last time we marched south to Yunnan, His Majesty originally favored Yunnan. It's me and Lan Yu, but just because we are holding on to Ouyang Lun, His Majesty would rather be replaced by King Zhu Di of Yan and King Zhu Bai of Xiang to hold Ouyang Lun."

"Since then I have seen that Ouyang Lun's status in His Majesty's mind is much higher than mine!"

Song Guogong Feng Sheng frowned and said: "This Ouyang Lun is your Majesty's son-in-law, and he has really achieved results. Your Majesty wants to protect him. This is normal!"

"Your Excellency, Your Majesty treats Ouyang Lun much better than an ordinary prince-in-law!" Lan Yu said: "According to the information from my dead men, Your Majesty has privately agreed that Ouyang Lun will marry a grassland tribe woman!"

"I agree with the prince-in-law to take a concubine... tsk tsk... This is a very rare thing in the past dynasties!"

"So...can't you see how much His Majesty attaches great importance to Ouyang Lun?"

"This..." After listening to Lan Yu's words, Song Guogong Feng Sheng stood there blankly.

"Your Excellency, given the importance your Majesty attaches to Ouyang Lun now, even if we defeat the Beiyuan army this time, it is still impossible to get rid of Ouyang Lun!" Fu Youde said solemnly.

"If this is the case, what should we do?" Feng Sheng asked quickly.

"The first thing the Grand Master said before we left was for us to take advantage of this opportunity to kill Ouyang Lun!" Lan Yu growled.

"Killing Ouyang Lun is easy to say, but to put it into practice, it is harder than reaching the sky!" Feng Sheng shook his head and said: "Now Beiping City is probably surrounded by the Beiyuan Army! We can't get in at all. !”

"Unless the Beiyuan army directly attacks Beiping City, Ouyang Lun, as the chief envoy, will most likely be killed, which saves us the trouble..."

After speaking, Feng Sheng happened to see Fu Youde and Lan Yu looking at him thoughtfully.

"Wait a minute, do you two really want to leave Peiping alone and be defeated by the Beiyuan army?"

Feng Sheng asked hurriedly.

"If His Majesty finds out about this, none of us will survive!"

Fu Youde nodded, "If His Majesty really knows that we are delaying on purpose, we will naturally not survive, but what if we are not delaying on purpose?"

Lan Yu added: "Although Beiping has been defeated, if we defeat the Beiyuan army and use this great achievement, will Your Majesty still kill us?"

"This" Feng Sheng fell into deep thought.

"My lord, do you still remember your Majesty's decree for us?" Fu Youde continued to ask.

"Your Majesty ordered me to be the chief general and you two to be the deputy generals to repel the Northern Yuan army and support Peiping!" Song Guogong Feng Sheng said solemnly.

"That's right, 'repulse the Beiyuan army and support Peiping', repel the Beiyuan army in the front and support Peiping in the back. It is clear at a glance what is the main task and what is the secondary task, and there is even an imperial edict as evidence. " Fu Youde said with a smile.

"Besides, it's not that we won't support Peiping, it's just that we're delaying some time. If Ouyang Lun can't wait for us to arrive, we can only tell him bad luck!" Lan Yu sneered.

Hearing this, Feng Sheng fell into thinking again. After a moment, Feng Sheng had already made a decision, "It seems that the Grand Master has made a comprehensive plan. You can just tell me the specific plan!"

"Bring me the map!"

Soon, a march map was opened.

Fu Youde took a step forward, pointed to a point on the map and said: "This is where our army is currently. According to the original plan, after Lan Yu and I arrived, the army was divided into three, and each of the three of us commanded one. Ministry, I will lead the army into Shanxi, and Lan Yu will enter Beizhili from Shandong and go straight to Shanhaiguan. Your Excellency, you will go to Peiping to support."

"What the Grand Master means is that once the army is divided into three, the strength will be dispersed. Shanxi and Shanhaiguan are okay. Wang Baobao has more than 35 troops in his hands. Sir, you lead an army of 200,000 people. It’s hard to predict whether we will win or lose!”

Feng Sheng nodded, "I have also thought about this issue. In order to defend the Great Wall, Xu Da and Tang He would not be able to send too many troops back to Peking City, and even if they sent troops, they would probably be intercepted by Wang Baobao's troops, and Peking There are at most 10,000 defenders in the city. Even if I rush there, I will at most confront Wang Baobao and be unable to repel him."

"Yes, Master Taishi also analyzed it in the same way. Once Wang Baobao knows that you, Lord Duke, have arrived with his army, he will definitely give up attacking Beiping City and attack you instead. Without the city wall to defend, facing Wang Baobao's 300,000 With the above army, we have a 70% chance of defeat!" Fu Youde continued: "Not only can't we repel Wang Baobao, but we may also be involved in it. The only gain is that Ouyang Lun can live longer!"

"Instead of doing this, it is better to give up the reinforcements to Peiping. I will still lead my troops into Shanxi, sweep away the Beiyuan army, and recapture Huyu Pass. Lord Guogong and Lan Yu will join forces and attack Shanhaiguan, first with Xu Da Let’s defeat the Beiyuan Third Army outside the Great Wall Pass together, and then kill Wang Baobao with a carbine!”

"When the time comes, Wang Baobao will be surrounded by us and will not be able to escape!"

"As for Ouyang Lun, he is incompetent and can't defend Beiping City. What does his life and death have to do with us?"

Lan Yu nodded excitedly, "In this way, we not only captured Wang Baobao, but also recaptured Beiping City, and also used Wang Baobao's hand to kill Ouyang Lun. It can be said that we killed three birds with one stone!"

"Is this the Grand Master's attention?" Song Guogong Feng Sheng asked seriously.

"Of course, such a plan. How could Lan Yu and I come up with it?" Fu Youde said with a smile: "Your Excellency, this opportunity must not come back again. As long as we kill Ouyang Lun, we can at least live in peace. ten years!"

"My lord, please don't forget that Ouyang Lun and the Prince Consort are threatening us. We must not be soft-hearted at this time!" Lan Yu said loudly: "If you are worried that His Majesty will blame you later, you can simply claim your illness and command the army. Leave the power to me, Lan Yu, and I will bear all the consequences!"

"Beiping City can be thrown away, but Ouyang Lun must die!"

"When did my Lord become afraid!" Feng Sheng said in a deep voice, "I was just thinking about what else I haven't considered!"

"But since this plan was planned by the Grand Master, there must be no problem, so I just did it!"

"The general's order was sent to me. Fu Youde led 50,000 troops to help Shanxi. Lan Yu and my prince went straight to Shanhaiguan! All officers and men are not allowed to disobey!"

"The last general takes orders!"

Fu Youde and Lan Yu immediately raised their hands and said.

Tread-

Five miles outside Peking City. A huge cavalry force is moving rapidly towards Beiping City.

Judging from the attire and flags, this cavalry unit is the 300,000-strong Northern Yuan army led by Wang Baobao!

On a hillside.

A burly man wearing the Northern Yuan King's uniform and braided hair was looking at the city in the distance.

"Your Majesty, Beiping City is ahead!"

"According to reports from spies, there are only 10,000 defenders in Beiping City at the moment, and our army has a full 300,000 people. We can take it overnight!"

The general next to him said to Wang Baobao.

"Are you sure there are only 10,000 people?" Wang Baobao asked with a frown.

"Prince Wang, it is absolutely true!" the general said with great certainty: "These information are the results of our spies who have been stationed in the city for many days. There are only so many troops in Beizhili, and most of them are now contained at the Great Wall. The Great Wall The reinforcements sent from the border were also blocked by us, and Shanxi and Shandong were unable to support us. The city of Beiping is ours, and the day when we can regain the capital is just around the corner!"

Wang Baobao nodded and continued to ask: "Have you found out who is guarding the city in Peiping? Xu Da? Or Tang He?"

The general shook his head, "No, Xu Da is unable to escape from the Great Wall now, and Tang He is not in Beiping City. The one staying at the Great Wall is Ouyang Lun, the chief envoy of Northern Zhili."

"Ouyang Lun? Is that the guy who presided over the construction of the Great Wall?" Wang Baobao said in surprise.

"Yes, this Ouyang Lun is the son-in-law of Ming Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang. He was originally unpopular. He was just the county magistrate of a small peripheral county. In recent years, he has been promoted continuously. He became the chief envoy before he was thirty. He was promoted through connections. , probably has no ability, and has never led an army, so just because he wants to defend Beiping City, it is undoubtedly a dream. From the perspective of his subordinates, Ming Dynasty is well aware of the power of my army and has already given up on Beiping City!"

After listening to the general's words, Wang Baobao frowned, "I have the opposite opinion than you. We have stayed in Beizhili before, but since entering from Shanxi, I have discovered many different places. The roads are flat and wide, and the fertile fields are fertile. I don’t know how much more there is!”

"It seems that Ouyang Lun does have some abilities. Even if he has never led troops to fight, we cannot take it lightly!"

"Yes!" the general said, cupping his hands.

"What's going on with the Ming court?"

"Back to your lord, according to the news from An Tan in the Ming capital, Emperor Ming Zhu Yuanzhang has received the news that our army has broken through Huyu Pass, and has sent Feng Sheng, Fu Youde, and Lan Yu to command 300,000 troops. Three groups came to support, but it will take at least half a month to reach Beiping City! And it will take us at most half a day to capture Beiping City." In this general's mind, half a day is more than half a day to capture Beiping City, and an army of 300,000 will attack an entire city. For a city garrisoned by only 10,000 people, one or two hours is enough.

"Ah."

Although Wang Baobao attached great importance to Ouyang Lun, he did not think that Ouyang Lun could hold back his 300,000 troops with 10,000 people.

"Go ahead with the order and always pay attention to the movements of Feng Sheng, Fu Youde, and Lan Yu in the Ming Dynasty to support the army."

"Yes!"

"And Xu Da also has to be watched by me. When I take Beiping City, he will be the second to deal with it!"

"Yes!"

"The last thing is that after we capture Beiping City, we are not allowed to harm the people, and Ouyang Lun must be captured alive as much as possible! If capable ministers who can build the Great Wall and govern can be used by my Yuan Dynasty, why worry about our Yuan Dynasty not being able to revive!"

"Yes!"

Peking City.

Chief Secretary Yamen.

The roof of the "castle", on the shore of the lake.

Ouyang Lun was lying on the rocking chair, with a total of twenty fishing rods beside him, ten on each side!

“I’m using so many fishing rods this time, and I’m afraid you won’t take the bait!!”

Just at this time.

Xu Liang ran in in a panic.

"Sir, it's not good! It's not good! Sir!"

Ouyang Lun frowned hard after hearing Xu Liang's words.

Jump up and start scolding!

"Bastard Xu Liang!"

"I'm very kind! If you don't curse me for a day, you'll feel uncomfortable, right?"

After being scolded by Ouyang Lun, Xu Liang quickly explained: "Sir, I don't mean to be a lower official. It's really a big deal!"

"Are those unscrupulous people going to run away again?"

Ouyang Lun said angrily.

"No, just after your speech at the city gate last time, few people in the city want to leave, and they are all actively preparing to defend the city."

"I just received news that Wang Baobao's army has appeared five miles away from Beiping City. It is estimated that Wang Baobao will arrive at the city in half an hour!"

Xu Liang said quickly.

"When it comes, it comes. I've made a defensive plan so many times. I'm afraid of him!"

"Have you made all the preparations I asked you to make?"

Ouyang Lun asked calmly.

"Everything is done, and many things need to be prepared. However," Xu Liang said with a worried look on his face: "Sir, there are only ten thousand of us in total. Even if there are all the people in the city tied up to defend the city, they must be thirty Wan Dajun! Is this really okay?"

"It's already this time, and you still ask me this question. Are you stupid or am I stupid?"

"Our goal is to defend Beiping City, not to rush out and fight Wang Baobao. As long as you, Xu Liang, don't sell me and Beiping City to Wang Baobao, this city will not be broken."

"Ahem, sir, you are aware of this! I, Xu Liang, am loyal to you and the Ming Dynasty, and I will never have any second thoughts!" Ouyang Lun's words frightened Xu Liang to his knees.

"Hey, why are you kneeling down? I didn't say that you really have second thoughts, it's just a metaphor." Ouyang Lun said angrily: "Hurry up and call all the officials above the fifth rank in Peking. Let's just be a Mobilize before war!”
