Chapter 401: Soldiers are coming to the city
Zhu Di crossed the river.
The situation has reversed abruptly, and now it has become that King Yan has a ship and the court has no ship.
Sheng Yong's troops deployed along the river watched as the northern army crossed the river.
In fact, with the strength of Sheng Yong's defense along the river, it can still be a battle, after all, for an army that has rushed to land on the beach, another army that has already built many fortifications on the shore has the upper hand, and the most powerful cavalry of the northern army is not needed, but the fighting spirit of the southern army has disappeared, no matter how the three armies of Sheng Yong galloped horses, how to shout and inspire, the soldiers did not have the courage to fight at all.
They held spears and bows, eager to try, just waiting, waiting for the moment when the northern army camp, that moment, was the opportunity for them to shout, break free from the shackles of the generals, and flee to the east and west.
The building will not be in the air, and the practice has been dispersed first!
The first team to rush ashore to meet Sheng Yong's lineage troops arranged at the front, which is also his most loyal troops, if he can repel an attack of the northern army, or can also save the morale of the three armies, however, good steel is used on the blade, and the stormtroopers arranged by Zhu Di are only 800 people, but they are 800 Arhats!
As soon as the ship landed, many monks wearing gray monk's robes and two rows of scars on their heads jumped out of the ship.
This is when Zhu Di hit Henan, holding a letter from Master Daoyan, climbing the Shaolin Temple of Songshan Mountain, and visiting Master Daoyan's friend Jiekong Abbot to get a team of monks and soldiers of only 800 people, but all of them are superb in martial arts, and at the critical moment, they can play the effect of King Yan's 3,000 Yan iron cavalry charging into battle.
This is the first time since the thirteen stick monks saved the Tang King, the Shaolin monks appeared on the battlefield of the two armies again, a dragon and a tiger fierce monk wielding a ring knife, a whistle stick, a convenient shovel, two sleeves puffed up a strong wind, like a harrier into Sheng Yong's Chinese army, Yan Wang's brigade followed, only a pillar of incense time, Sheng Yong's unbreakable Chinese defense line collapsed.
Immediately, as if the most important cornerstone on the tower was removed, the entire defense line collapsed, the southern army collapsed, and those who had no time to flee raised their weapons and surrendered.
"Your Highness, shall we go straight to Jinling?"
Qiu Fu, Zhu Neng and other generals guarded Zhu Di to the shore and asked excitedly.
"Nope! Zhenjiang is the throat of the emperor's capital, if you go straight to Jinling, you must prevent it from covering up and killing, there are still tens of thousands of elite soldiers there, we must take Zhenjiang first, and then surround Jinling", when his feet stepped on the south bank of the Yangtze River again, Zhu Di's confidence also increased sharply, he knew that the most dangerous time had passed, and the threat from the Ming army of Huai'an Meiyin and Zhongdu Fengyang no longer existed, and success was within reach, so the tone was extremely calm and firm.
Zhenjiang Shou will be Tong Jun. Seeing Zhu Di's army coming violently, Tong Jun was at a loss, and then, the Yan army stopped under the city, and several letters were shot into the city, which were all letters from Yangzhou, Gaoyou, Tongzhou, Taizhou, Jiangzhou, and Chen Xuan, the governor of the navy, these generals either had a very personal relationship with Tong Jun, or they had also dealt with them, they showed up to say that they persuaded him to surrender, Tong Jun was as good as a stream, and immediately disarmed and surrendered, Zhu Di's soldiers took Zhenjiang without blood, and the soldiers and horses fought until Longtan, relieved their worries, and then turned to Jinling.
Hearing that the king of Yan had crossed the river that could be used as a hundred thousand soldiers, Zhu Yunpo was so shocked that his soul was not possessed, and he sought advice from all the civil and military forces, but no one offered advice at all, Zhu Yunfen had no choice but to send Li Jinglong, the prince of Cao Guo, Ru Chang, the military department, and Wang Zuo, the governor of the army, to the Yan army camp to negotiate peace again. Among these three people, except for the governor Wang Zuo, the other two are the leaders of the peace faction, the Yan army is coming to the city, Zhu Yunant really wants to negotiate peace this time, he would rather cede half of the Jiangbei country, only ask the fourth uncle who was annoyed by him to withdraw his troops quickly.
Zhu Di was dressed in military uniform, and before the tent was erected, he met them in the army. Ji Jinglong's expression was calm and unflustered, he had already surrendered Zhu Di, and now that Zhu Di's success was imminent, he only had joy in his heart, how could he panic, but although Ru Chang was his ally, he had not yet surrendered, and the governor Wang Zuo was the main battle faction, and he was sent to be his deputy, but he actually monitored them, and he didn't dare to say anything in person.
It's just that when he saw Xia Xun standing beside Zhu Di, Li Jinglong glanced at him deeply, his eyes were full of gratitude, yes, he was very grateful to Xia Xun, if it wasn't for Xia Xun's rebellion, how could he be today, once King Yan won the world, he was from the dragon's work, so kind, the mustard caused by a woman and Xia Xun in the past has long been swept away.
Zhu Di rode on a horse, looked at the three court envoys kneeling in front of him, and sneered: "Why are you here to be here?" ”
Ru Chang glanced at Li Jinglong, and saw that he didn't speak, so he had to bow his head in a panic and say: 'The ministers are ordered by the emperor' to come to ask His Highness for peace, and the emperor is willing to follow the previous proposal, harm the land north of the Jiangbei, and share the north and south of the Yangtze River with His Highness, and rule the world together. ”
Zhu Di looked up to the sky and laughed, and before the laughter stopped, he glared at the tiger and said awefully: ...... I Zhu Di was not at fault before, but the emperor added guilt for no reason. The emperor examined me to seal the Beiping domain, but the emperor was provoked by the traitorous ministers, not only wanted to seize my fiefdom, but also turned me into a prisoner under the steps, Zhu Di Fengtian Jing, all he asked was to get rid of the traitor, the previous Qingcheng county lord came, this king has given the 'traitorous list' to His Majesty, as long as His Majesty is all the traitors in the list, Zhu Di immediately retreated, if it can't be done, then Zhu Di will follow the words of the world when the Emperor is in trouble, and go to Jinling in person to eradicate the traitor! ”
"Your Highness......"
Before Ru Chang could say more, Zhu Di brushed his sleeves and said: "Go! ”
The three of them didn't dare to say anything more, but they stood up, Li Jinglong stood up, and glanced at Xia Xun with some anxiety, Xia Xun smiled at him quickly, and nodded without paying attention, Li Jinglong's heart suddenly settled down, and he was busy making a panicked look, and retreated back with Ru Chang and Wang Zuo.
Watching the three of them walk away, Xia Xun pulled his horse to Zhu Di and said: , I am afraid that Your Highness has to enter the city here, has Your Highness ever thought about how to face the emperor? ”
You must know that King Yan raised troops in the name of the Qing monarch's side, so what should he do when he arrives in Nanjing and kills those ...... "traitors" who show the world? Isn't it a slap in the face to replace the Son of Heaven, Zhu Di can fight with the Heavenly Army in the name of Jingnan, rightly and confidently, not afraid of criticism behind people's backs, but if he kicks his nephew off the throne, it really can't be said.
At present, Zhu Di's most difficult thing is this matter, the matter has come to this point, after getting rid of Fang Xiaoru and others, he will really return to Beiping? That's impossible, the white idiot won't do that, if you don't die if you fight the snake, there will be endless troubles, will you wait for the emperor to recover and make it difficult again? What's more, the times have changed, and today, the throne is at his fingertips, in the past, he dared to think but didn't dare to do it, but now as long as he wants, he can replace him at any time, how can he not be tempted by the throne?
But what gave him a headache was that he had no name, in the face of a henchman like Xia Xun, Zhu Di naturally didn't have to hide his ambitions, as soon as he heard this, his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked: "How does Wen Xuan want to stay?" ”
Xia Xun said: "The minister wants to sneak back to Jinling before His Highness's army, and see the opportunity to do something."
Zhu Di is a smart person, he knows the meaning of the strings when he hears the strings, and it is inconvenient for him to say some things clearly, so he just nodded and said: "Okay, you go and arrange it yourself, what cooperation you need from this king, just explain it one by one." ”
Xia Xun smiled and arched his hand: "Your Highness, how to fight here, there is no need to have any scruples, as long as the minister enters Jinling City, he can mobilize the power of the flying dragon, this is not a confrontation between the two armies, with them, it is enough." ”
Li Jinglong, Ru Chang, and Wang Zuo returned to Nanjing City and said this, Zhu Yunant's face turned pale, once upon a time, Zhu Di, the king of Yan, retreated step by step, handed over the military power, handed over the three guards of Yanshan, handed over his three sons as hostages, and ran to the streets of Beiping to pretend to be crazy and stupid, just begging him to give up the pursuit, who would have thought that today, he would not be able to get half of the country if he wanted to harm half of the country9
Seeing Zhu Yunfen's bleak expression, and the civil and military forces were silent, Fang Xiaoru had no choice but to bite the bullet and say: ...... Your Majesty, in order to show the emperor's sincerity in seeking peace, no... Then ask the kings to negotiate peace for His Majesty, the army of the kings of all walks of life is still on the way, the general trend may not be impossible, as long as it can be delayed for some time, the battle situation may change again......
Zhu Yunpo now has no idea at all, like a puppet, as soon as he heard Fang Xiaoru's suggestion, regardless of whether he is useful or not, he immediately complied, and then issued an edict, ordering Zhu Wen, the king of the valley, Zhu Ying, the king of An, and other princes to go to the Yan army camp to sue for peace, I heard that the brothers were coming, Zhu Di opened the camp tent to greet them, invited them into the tent, set up a banquet, and entertained them warmly.
As soon as Zhu Sui, the king of the valley, explained his intention, Zhu Di laughed and said: "Brothers, please think about it, is Your Majesty telling the truth?" ”
Zhu Yude stubbornly said: ...... Brother Mingjian, it seems that His Majesty does have a discussion and sincerity to ......"
Zhu Di smiled and said: "Zhu Di waved his army to the south, only to capture the traitorous ministers in the court, and now the traitors have not been obtained, if he retires, how can Zhu Di explain to the world?" How to explain to the countless loyal soldiers who have been bloodstained on the battlefield for four years......"
Zhu Yude wanted to say more, Zhu Di stared at him and said: "Nineteenth brother, we are brothers and sisters, the emperor was bewitched by traitors and ministers, forcing your eleventh brother's whole family to burn themselves, and it was miserable to see that your fifth brother, seventh brother, and twelfth brother are still in prison, if it weren't for my unbearable and unbearable rebellion, would you and my brother still be able to eat and drink here today?" Maybe you and I have long been locked up in the high walls of Fengyang, and we can't see each other. ”
Zhu Di was silent when he heard this, Zhu Di glanced at his younger brothers again, and said: "Brothers, think about it, since the emperor ascended the throne, has he had a trace of flesh and blood affection for our dear relatives?" Today the emperor wants you to come to me to negotiate peace, but what did he do to you yesterday? In the past four years, you have been in the capital, under his nose, with your tail between your shoulders, and you are especially afraid that Your Majesty will poison you again.
Today, if you want to relieve the siege for the emperor, as soon as the dog army withdraws, and the army of King Qin goes to Beijing, who will relieve the siege for me? When Zhu Di is exterminated by the imperial court, at that time, the emperor's butcher's knife will be on your head, who will relieve you from the siege? The traitors you want to protect today? They only hate me for being a member of the Zhu Ming royal family, and they can't die just to death! ……
When the kings heard this, they were silent, and Zhu Di raised his glass and said, "Brothers, for my brother's words, you should think about it." Okay, you and my brother have a rare reunion today, today is only about brotherhood, not to discuss military affairs, the military banquet is simple, let's accommodate it, and wait for the next day in Jinling City, our brothers will drink at the same table! ”! ~!
