Ming Dynasty: A hundred-year-old immortal cultivator, Zhu Yuanzhang’s biological father

Chapter 361 Is there a traitor?

"Somebody come!"

"Catch those two little bastards back for us. If you can't catch them, you can just withdraw."

"Yes!"

The Imperial Guards immediately set out to search for the Zhu Xiongying brothers.

........................

In an alley on the street.

Two little heads popped out of the two baskets.

"Brother, Grandpa Huang seems to be really angry."

"What should we do?"

Zhu Yunhuan couldn't help feeling a little worried when he saw the streets full of Jinyiwei.

Zhu Xiongying also frowned. Now that Li Jinglong and the others were not there, there was nowhere to hide.

Suddenly an idea came to my mind!
"Yunxun, do you dare to go to the battlefield?"

Hearing this, Zhu Yunhuan's eyes suddenly lit up and he nodded repeatedly: "Brother, I dare!"

"I have wanted to go to the battlefield for a long time, but my father has always refused to let me go, saying that I am still young."

"Going to the battlefield can easily leave psychological trauma, but I'm not afraid at all."

"I have secretly followed the Bad People to carry out several missions."

"It's not like I haven't seen dead people before!"

Zhu Xiongying looked at him in surprise. He didn't expect that he had carried out missions at such a young age.

"Yunxun, although you have carried out missions, the battlefield is not the same as the mission battlefield."

"The degree of horror here is beyond your imagination."

"Are you sure you still want to go?"

"I'm going!"

Zhu Yunhuan nodded firmly.

"it is good……"

"Then I'll take you there!"

"Let's go to Liaodong and look for my uncle and his family."

"okay!"

Although Zhu Yunhuan was a martial arts expert, he was still young and his psychological endurance was stronger than that of his peers, but the battlefield was different.

This time, Zhu Xiongying planned to train him and let him see the world, and at most not let him go into battle to kill the enemy.

Let him watch from a distance!

Just do it!

The two brothers found a place to hide and contacted Yuan Tiangang and others.

As soon as they arrived, they slipped out of Yingtian at night and headed north to Liaodong.

................................................

Liaodong!

Ming army camp!

Li Jinglong ran into the central military tent in a hurry.

"Blue handsome blue handsome!"

"What's wrong, girl? What makes you so happy?"

"Master Lan, the bad guys have brought the trap map."

Upon hearing this, Lan Yu immediately stood up, walked up to Li Jinglong and took the map.

Open it and take a look!
"Hahaha……"

"It really is a trap map!"

"The bad guys are really good at this!"

All the generals gathered around and were delighted to see the trap map in Lan Yu's hand.

"Now that Coach Lan has this trap map, can we launch an attack?"

"Ok!"

"Pass the order down, draw a few more maps of the two traps, and give a copy to the team leaders."

"Begin to encircle the group of savages. Let's see what they will do this time."

"If we trap them at one point, even if we delay until spring, we can still kill them."

"Let's all get ready!"

"Yes!"

All the generals went down to prepare!
A few days later, the Ming army began to march, and wherever they passed, the traps on the road were destroyed.

Gradually they began to encircle the Jurchens.

..............................

Handori Department!

Inside the big tent!

"Great Khan, the latest intelligence, the Ming army has begun to take action."

"And the speed is very fast. They are gradually closing in on us."

When these words were spoken, everyone in the tent was shocked.

"How can this be?"

"Didn't we set up many traps?"

"How can they be so fast?"

Brother Meng frowned, having a very bad feeling.

"I'm also wondering about this. The Ming army seemed to know that there were traps there. Most of the traps we left behind are gone."

"They had no casualties at all, not even a scratch."

Yao Guangxiao frowned, and soon he realized something.

"Khan, do we still have the map of our trap?"

"Yes!"

"what happened?"

"Hurry up and get it."

Although Meng Ge was confused, he still asked someone to bring it.

Soon the trap map was brought over. Yao Guangxiao looked at it again and again and found that it was indeed his own trap map.

Nothing is lost.

Suddenly, a feeling of fear enveloped my heart. I kept looking around and my forehead was covered with cold sweat.

"Sir, what's wrong with you?"

Meng Ge was even more confused when he saw Yao Guangxiao so nervous and frightened.

"this is too scary!"

"Khan, we are being watched, and have been watched for a long time."

"Sir, what do you mean by that? I don't understand."

Not only Mengge didn't understand, even the generals didn't understand, and they all looked at him with puzzled eyes.

"Great Khan, the Ming army evaded all the traps we set. What does this prove?"

"It proves that they already knew where the trap was. Otherwise, how could they not suffer any casualties?"

"Sir, that makes sense!"

Everyone nodded.

Yao Guangxiao paused and continued, "If you want to know where the traps are, you must have a trap map."

"How else would it be so clear? Even for us, we have to look at the trap map to know where it is."

"But the trap map has not been lost, and the Ming army does know where the traps are."

"What does this mean?"

"It means someone took a copy of the trap map in your hand, Khan, and sent it to the Ming army."

“And we knew nothing about all this.”

"If the Ming army hadn't taken action, we would have discovered it. Otherwise, we might never have discovered it in our lifetime."

When Yao Guangxiao said this, everyone was shocked.

"Sir, are you saying that there is a traitor here?"

"Not bad!"

"And this traitor is of a high rank among us. He may be close to the Khan, or someone close to the Khan."

"How else would we know where you, Khan, put the trap map?"

"To be able to enter the Khan's tent unobserved."

"This group of people are the most suspicious because they have the best chance of stealing the trap map."

Hearing this, Mengge nodded.

Brother Meng looked around at everyone.

"Sir, who among them is most likely?"

Mengge's words shocked everyone present.

Everyone in the tent knelt down immediately, with cold sweat on their foreheads.

"The Khan, sir!"

"I am loyal to the Khan and will never do anything to betray the Khan or the Jurchens!"

"Please enlighten me, Great Khan!"

"Yes, Khan!"

"We are loyal to you and will never betray the Khan."

"..."

Everyone expressed their loyalty.

"Great Khan, I don't know who it is at the moment."

"But we can rule it out. For example, who knows where the Khan's trap map is placed?"

Mengge nodded when he heard this and glanced at the crowd. Most of these generals didn't know.

They were all leading the troops and had no idea.

Most of the people were excluded immediately, and those who were excluded felt relieved.

The rest knelt on the ground and trembled!
"What remains for the Khan is the freedom to come and go from your tent."

This excludes some people.

The rest are some people who serve Mengge.

"Khan, it wasn't me!" "I didn't steal the trap map. I wouldn't dare to do it even if I had ten times the courage!"

The man kneeling on the ground hurriedly explained.

"What do you think, sir?"

"Khan, it is better to kill the wrong person than to let anyone go. The only one who knows your trap map is the one who can get out of your tent."

"Kill them all, otherwise we will be in danger of being destroyed. Don't show mercy."

Yao Guangxiao's words meant that Mengge's concubines would also be killed.

Mengge frowned, as his beloved concubine was among them, and he felt reluctant to leave.

Yao Guangxiao seemed to see Mengge's dilemma and said, "Khan, as long as we conquer the world, you can choose any woman in the world."

"We must put the overall situation first! We must not lose sight of the big picture because of small matters!"

Mengge looked at Yao Guangxiao closely, as if he had made some kind of decision.

"kill!"

Brother Meng raised his hand and immediately led his men downstairs. Soon, screams were heard outside.

Mengge closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

"Sweaty..."

Yao Guangxiao wanted to say something but was interrupted by Mengge.

"Sir, you don't have to tell me, I know!"

"If you want to achieve great things, you must be ruthless. I remember I told you that Emperor Gaozu of Han, Liu Bang, also threw his wife and children out of the car."

"He was able to escape Xiang Yu's pursuit and finally establish the Han Dynasty, which lasted for 400 years."

"I want to be a person who surpasses Liu Bang and create a world that will last longer than his."

Brother Meng clenched his fists tightly, his eyes full of ambition.

"All right!"

"Now that the traitor has been dealt with, let's talk about what happens next."

"The Ming army is now beginning to encircle us. How should we respond?"

“If we are surrounded by them, the consequences will be disastrous.”

Everyone nodded. The most urgent task was to solve this problem.

Everyone subconsciously looked at Yao Guangxiao, who had long become their think tank.

"Great Khan, move now before they can surround us."

"Or find their weak point, launch a surprise attack, and then leave."

Mengge nodded. After all, the Ming army had better equipment and more people than them, so a head-on confrontation was not a solution.

"Sir, your method is indeed the best one at the moment."

“But in the long run, it’s not a solution.”

"We can't hide forever. If we keep hiding like this, how long will it take for us to stop?"

A general below couldn't help but speak.

As soon as this statement was made, it was recognized by everyone. It made a lot of sense. Hiding from the status quo was not a solution.

"Hehehe..."

"You make a lot of sense. Soon we won't have to hide anymore."

"Ok?"

??????????
Everyone looked at him in confusion, including Meng Ge.

"Sir, do you have a way to defeat the Ming army?"

"Great Khan, the most powerful weapon of the Ming army is firearms. If they have it, we can have it too."

"Sir, do you have a method for making firearms?"

Yao Guangxiao shook his head.

"Then what do you mean?"

"Although I don't have the method to make firearms, we can buy them."

"purchase?"

"Sir, you don't want to buy it from the Ming army, do you?"

Yao Guangxiao smiled and nodded.

"Sir, isn't that a good idea?"

"How could the Ming army possibly sell it to us?"

"I'm not stupid."

"you do not say!"

"Sir, you are so..."

"..."

Everyone said it was impossible, even Meng Ge next to them.

"Hehehe..."

"Everyone, just because the Ming army is unwilling to sell doesn't mean those civil officials are unwilling to do so!"

"These civil servants are more greedy than each other!"

Meng Ge looked at Yao Guangxiao in surprise: "Sir, are you serious about what you said?"

"Great Khan, you don't know that the salaries of officials in the Ming Dynasty are pitifully low, even the lowest in all dynasties."

"Although new policies have been implemented in recent years, Zhu Yuanzhang is so stingy that the price won't increase much."

"It has increased a lot. As long as we offer a high enough price, who would complain about having too much money?"

The corners of Yao Guangxiao's mouth rose slightly, as if he had long seen through the character of those so-called scholars.

"Sir, that's true, but we're not rich either!"

"If those people ask for too much, what will we eat?"

"Yes, sir!"

"I've heard that all those civil servants are greedy guys, and I'm not rich."

"I'm afraid it won't satisfy their appetite!"

"..."

Everyone was worried.

"Everyone, everyone!"

"You can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a lamb. We can use the money to buy weapons and defeat the Ming army."

"After conquering the world, are you still worried about having no money?"

"I promise you that once we conquer the world, you will have a headache because you have too much money and where to put it."

A big pancake was thrown down, and everyone suddenly became quiet.

Meng Ge at the side also stood up and said: "Sir, you are right. Although we are not rich now."

"But once you conquer the world, don't worry about money. You can choose any woman you want."

"What did you want back then? You got whatever you wanted."

Hearing this, everyone suddenly became excited, as if they had already seen themselves lying on a mountain of gold, hugging a beautiful woman and drinking fine wine.

"All is subject to the Khan's orders!"

Mengge nodded when he saw this scene, and was very satisfied.

"Sorba, you are the one who will do this. Bring the money and enter the country. Our hopes all rest on you."

"The future of the Jurchen people depends on you, please don't let us down!"

"Don't worry, Khan. I will complete the task."

Solba is the most eloquent among them and has the best business sense.

"Sorba, remember to disguise yourself and don't let others know that you are a Jurchen."

"Understand?"

"Understood sir!"

"Go!"

Solba nodded, turned and left!
"Great Khan, let's do it too!"

"Leave after the fight, don't linger in the battle!"
