King Luhuang of the Ming Dynasty: My father, Ming Taizu

Chapter 202 Am I cheating on you? It's obviously you who took the initiative to get slapped in the face!
When Zhu Xi heard this, his expression also changed!
Too much!
One million taels of silver, even if I scrape the land in Xi'an for several years, I won't be able to earn that much!

damn it!
One hundred thousand taels of silver may be able to scare others, but to Zhu Tan, it's a drop in the bucket!
However, Zhu Xi could not lose face at this time.

He said with a gloomy face: "One million taels is one million taels! Tenth brother is so confident."

Hearing this, Zhu Tan smiled and said: "Since the second brother praises me so much, then I will be more confident! The bet is two million taels! Does the second brother dare to follow?"

Zhu Xi's face changed wildly, and he almost slapped himself in regret.

Two million taels!

Even if I sell the palace, I won’t be able to make up this amount!
Damn it, Lao Shi!

He said angrily: "You took out 200 million taels so lightly? My father always taught us to be frugal, how could you be so wasteful!"

Zhu Tan said with a smile: "Second brother, don't worry, this money is nothing to my younger brother! Second brother won't be able to get even this little money, right?"

My younger brother heard that you raided Xi'an Mansion so much that the local people went to the Prince of Qin's Mansion to beg the second brother to reduce their exploitation. Unfortunately, the second brother was so hard-hearted that he arrested them and beat many of them to death!
The second brother is working so hard to make money, won’t he be out of money? "

Now there are not only two vassal kings, King Qin and King Lu, but also King Yan, King Zhou, and King Qi!

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but shake their heads.

Everyone in the world behaves in a manner that is considerate and forgiving.

Listening to Zhu Tan's sarcasm, Zhu Feng said angrily: "I will not be like you and associate with merchants regardless of the royal family's face!"

Not long after, the bet was delivered to Zhu Tan and Zhu Xi!
Zhu Tan signed the signature quickly, dipped his hand in ink mud, and pressed it on the bet.

The words are already extremely harsh for this reason.

As soon as the army set off for the expedition, there was internal strife. Even if Feng Sheng had nothing to do with him, as the commander of the army, he could not escape the responsibility.

Of course, Feng Sheng had no choice but to do so.

Everyone looked at this with speechless faces.

Seeing that Zhu Tan was so neat and everything seemed premeditated, Zhu Xi could not help but murmur in his heart.

With that said, Zhu Tan shouted: "Counsel Xu! Write down the bet between me and His Highness the King of Qin. If I lose, my wife will win two million taels of silver. This must be written clearly!"

As a result, Zhu Xi, who had not yet become a vassal, was transferred to Kaifeng.

Hearing this, Zhu Tan secretly shouted that Zhu Laosi was not a good person!

These three are not fuel-efficient lamps.

After the words fell, Zhu Ping no longer hesitated.

It’s better to lose people than lose the formation!
What's more, he may not lose!
The combined soldiers of Lan Yudai and King Lu's guards only numbered 10,000, while Yuan Meng's army numbered 30,000!
They defended the city and fought three against one. Even if they had 30,000 pigs, they wouldn't lose in half a day, right?

Lu Wangwei has summed up many strategies for cavalry in countless discussions with soldiers.

Wudinghou Guo Ying sighed.

"Your Highnesses, this is just this once, and it won't be the same in the future! I will definitely report what happened today to Your Majesty!
If your Majesty has any instructions, no wonder he is so handsome!

Seeing Zhu Ping's troubled look, Zhu Di also felt secretly relieved.

He snorted and signed the bet neatly.

"Please ask my second brother to establish a written document!"

It’s obvious that Lao Shi is trying to trick King Qin to death!

Others don't know Lu Wangwei's strength. Guo Ying has led Lu Wangwei for so long, so he naturally knows it.

Think of this.

As for now, I'm afraid that Tongzhou City has been destroyed for a long time, and maybe the messenger will come soon.

Zhu Tan smiled and said, "If the second brother is scared or doesn't have that much money, he just needs to admit that he was wrong. There is no need to take a gamble."

Zhu Fang gritted his teeth and said: "It's only two million taels of silver, what can't I get out of it? I'll take this bet!"

He turned to Zhu Tan and frowned: "Tenth brother! That's it! Where did the second brother get so much money to bet with you? Aren't you bullying the second brother?"

When they saw the bet, everyone began to hesitate.

There were already civilian officers in the marching tent, and pens, inks, paper and inkstones were all readily available.

As a result, Lao Zhu thought about it. After all, Suzhou was the financial center of the country and was too close to Yingtian, so it was really not suitable as a fiefdom.

Although it is disgraceful to associate with merchants, at least the damage is not that great.

For example, Zhou Wang Zhu Ji was originally named King of Wu, and his vassal territory was in Suzhou.

Song Guogong Feng Sheng frowned and looked at Zhu Xi and Zhu Tan.

Next, if there is any conflict again, I will have to invite the two His Highnesses back to the court and put them under His Majesty's control! "

He patted the table hard.

Not to mention the King Lu Guards who now have sharper firearms, even the King Lu Guards who had not changed their uniforms before could still beat the 30,000 Mongolian Yuan cavalry to pieces.

On the surface, he said this to reprimand himself, but in fact, it made Zhu Feng unable to step down!
After hearing Zhu Di's words, Zhu Ping's face suddenly became even more embarrassed.

Zhu Tan was quick and snatched the bet away.

King Qin offended all the people in Xi'an!

Although Kaifeng is a pretty good place, compared with Suzhou, it is in the sky and on the ground.

As a result, Zhou King Zhu Xi vented his dissatisfaction every day in the vassal territory. The local government could not control it and could not afford to offend him, so he could only keep asking the court for help.

Not to mention Qi King Zhu Yan. The original vassal territory was in Qingzhou. On the surface, he came to Qingzhou because of a dispute with King Lu, but in fact, King Qi's misbehavior in the vassal territory had long aroused Zhu Yuanzhang's dissatisfaction!

He killed four or five third-grade officials alone!

Think again of King Zhu Di of Yan.
Previously, Wei Guogong Xu Da sat in Peiping and taught Zhu Di by words and deeds, so Zhu Di was relatively stable.

But Zhu Di’s biggest problem is his bellicosity!

The kind that makes you go crazy when you encounter an enemy!

This time, he also wanted to compete with Lan Yu for the vanguard position. Feng Sheng comforted Lan Yu for a long time before giving up.

Think of this.

Feng Sheng suddenly had an even greater headache.

He would rather fight out two Naha than lead these vassal kings!
Tired of heart!

Zhu Feng snorted coldly and said: "It's almost half a day away now! I want to see if Lu Wangwei is an expert in civil war and an outsider in external war!"
He fought fiercely with Lan Yu's personal guards, as if he was so powerful, but when he met the Mongols, his feet became weak! hehe."

When King Yan Zhu Di heard this, he couldn't help frowning and said: "Second brother, this is not how the bet was made, right? This place is still an hour away from Tongzhou City. Even if Lu Wangwei captured Tongzhou City and reported victory, he should not It takes exactly half a day to capture Tongzhou City, but it should be delayed by an hour!"

Zhu Xi glanced at Zhu Di coldly and said: "Do you want to favor Lao Shi? Huh! I know that Lao Shi gave you a batch of muskets! You show off to your subordinates every day! You even organized a Little Musketeers!
Haha, you are indeed my good fourth brother!
Just flatter anyone who has money, right?
The dignified King Yan, his eyelids are so shallow! "

Zhu Di was furious when he heard this.

Zhu Xi said this as if he wanted more muskets to please Zhu Tan!
But he clearly said something fair!
Zhu Di shouted angrily: "Second brother! Are you slandering me! How could I care about such a small firearm! I just said some fair words, who cares about firearms! What a joke!

Not to mention that Lao Shi no longer has any firearms in his hands. Even if he did, even if they were delivered to me, I wouldn’t even bother to take a look! "

When Zhu Tan heard Zhu Xi's words, he also sneered and said: "Fourth brother! Why bother with him! Don't you like firearms? I will write a letter right now and ask Yanzhou Prefecture to send another batch to the front line! All the expenses will be paid I'll give this batch of firearms to you, Fourth Brother, so that Yanshan Guard can also build a firearms camp!" Zhu Di's face changed wildly, he looked at Zhu Tan and said ecstatically: "Is this so embarrassing? Fourth brother already said, I'm not coveting your igniter!
Hmm. I guess your transport team won't arrive that soon, right? If you write a letter, you can have the transportation team transport it to Daning!

I heard that the Guild of the Song Dynasty briefly repaired in Daning before heading north!
By the way, what is the approximate scale of your shipment? I will arrange for Zhang Yu to select sergeants suitable for using firearms!

Also, if that batch of firearms arrives, you can’t just send them over without discipline!

You need to send at least a hundred soldiers who are proficient in the use of muskets and artillery to teach those idiots! "

Everyone:.
Zhu Xi snorted coldly.

"As expected! You useless fourth child!"

Zhu Di said happily: "Second brother, stop talking. If you also give me a batch of firearms, I will have no future if I have no future! Haha."

at this time.

It's not yet noon.

suddenly.

A sergeant walked into the camp.

"Report! General! Yongchang Hou Lanyu and Lu Wangwei command the envoy safe and sound!"
Tongzhou City has been conquered. Saiin Timur, the peaceful king who guarded Tongzhou, and three Pingzhang soldiers led 10,000 Mongolian Yuan remnants to surrender!
In this battle, Lu Wangwei made the greatest contribution and killed the enemy without any calculation. Marquis Yongchang said that he was convinced and convinced! "

The words fell.

Everyone fell into a deathly silence!

Subsequently.

Everyone looked at Zhu Xi with sympathy.

I had previously made a bet that it would take half a day for King Lu’s Guard to capture Tongzhou City. Who knows, it’s not even half a day yet, and all the people who reported victory in King Lu’s Guard are back!

Inside and outside, Tongzhou City was captured nearly two hours ahead of schedule!
Five thousand people defeated thirty thousand!

Even Yongchang Hou Lanyu said he was convinced!
At this time, Zhu Xi looked more like a victim!
I rushed to lose 200 million taels of silver to Zhu Tan!

The most critical question is, can Zhu Ping get so much money?
Zhu Tan raised the IOU in his hand and said with a smile: "Second brother! Your Highness, King Qin, what do you say? It's only 200 million taels. I guess the second brother must have sold all the royal family's fields and the palace, and borrowed a large amount of money. Is that enough?”

Zhu Ming's face turned livid and he said angrily: "Old Shi! How dare you trick me! Did you already know that this would be the result?"

Zhu Tan looked at Zhu Xi inexplicably and said, "Yes! I have known this result for a long time, and I also said it! Do you not believe it yourself?"

Zhu Xi:.
"You! Bastard!"

Zhu Tan sneered and said: "Stop talking nonsense! Pay back the money! Here is the evidence, your majesty, the King of Qin, will not default on the debt, right?"

Zhu Xi's forehead was covered with cold sweat.

But he can only be helpless and furious.

Everyone looked at Zhu Xi with sympathy.

In fact.

If Zhu Ping really defaulted on his debt, Zhu Tan probably wouldn't be able to do anything against him.

But his reputation was completely ruined!
But what if Zhu Ping were asked to cash out the reward with 200 million taels of silver?

This matter is not easy!

It is estimated that as Zhu Tan said, he would have to sell all the property in the palace, including the palace, and borrow a large amount of money to pay off the debt.

Zhu Ping's face turned livid and he said, "I will pay you back when I return to Xi'an!"

Zhu Tan smiled.

"It turns out that the second brother has no money. How dare he play such a big game without money! My brother admires me!"

Zhu Feng said angrily: "Old Shi, if you hurt people like this, you will be punished sooner or later!"

Zhu Tan was stunned and couldn't help but said loudly: "It's obvious that you are the second brother and you have nothing to do to cause trouble. I said that I, King Lu Wei, have unparalleled combat power, but you have to jump out and look for a slap in the face yourself, and now you are saying that I am the one who is harming others?

Where did I trick people?

If there is a trap, it is because some fools who overestimate their capabilities jumped into the trap on their own! "

The words fell.

Zhu Feng couldn't be angry anymore, he snorted angrily and walked away!

Feng Sheng frowned and said to a general beside him: "Send a few people to follow His Highness King Qin! At the same time, keep an eye on King Qin's guards. If there is any abnormality, report to me as quickly as possible!"

After Qin King Zhu Xi left the military tent.

The atmosphere suddenly became lively!

"Congratulations to His Royal Highness King Lu!"

"King Lu's guard is truly unparalleled in battle! Even Marquis Yongchang praised him so much!"

"Haha. Five thousand people versus thirty thousand, they were all wiped out in about an hour! Such fighting power is really terrifying!
Having His Royal Highness King Lu here is really a blessing to my Ming Dynasty! "

"Tenth brother, fourth brother congratulates you! Don't just stand there stupidly now. Write to Yanzhou quickly! Brother, I have already arranged the firearms camp of Yanshanwei! You said, why is the name of Yanshanwei's firearms camp called Shenji Camp? Like? Haha, isn’t it very majestic?”

After winning the first battle.

Feng Sheng, Duke of Song Dynasty, hurriedly wrote a letter of victory and sent it to Yingtian in a hurry for 800 miles.

At the same time, Feng Sheng led many vassal kings and generals to see Saiin Timur.

At this time, Saiin Timur's face was full of decadence, and when he saw Feng Sheng, his face was even more desperate.

According to Zhao Ning's analysis, he was defeated so miserably in this battle that he might not be able to escape the fate of being cannon fodder in the future.

Maybe even worse than cannon fodder!
For example, being assigned as a slave?

This is how Dayuan dealt with prisoners back then.
Of course, there is also the possibility of beheading all the prisoners.

However, the Ming Dynasty was never that cruel, so Saiin Timur was not worried about this.

Feng Sheng looked at Saiin Timur and other Yuan Meng surrendered generals, smiled, and then took out an imperial edict.

"Emperor Hongwu of the Ming Dynasty has an edict, and you will receive it!"

When Sain Timur heard Feng Sheng's words, he looked around at the Ming army soldiers with majestic faces and strong armor. His knees weakened and he knelt on the ground.

"The guilty minister accepts the order!"

Feng Sheng said loudly: "I inherit the destiny of heaven and lead the heavenly army to attack the unjust and carry out the king's way!

The Ming Dynasty follows the orthodoxy of the Yuan Dynasty, and all my people, whether Han or Mongolian, are my people! I feel sorry for your situation and am determined to pardon your previous sins. I, the Ming Dynasty, will properly accommodate you, and once they are stable, you will still be allowed to herd horses and sheep on the grassland and live freely. If he intends to join the army, he can also join the heavenly army and guard the northern border, becoming a vassal forever! Admire this! "

The words fell.

Sain Timur's lips trembled.

Face full of excitement!
Tears fell from the corners of my eyes!
