Chapter 225: General Mobilization Before the War

The army from half of the Ming Dynasty had gathered in Jiangxi at this time, and Zhu Yunwen ordered the mobilization of the Beijing camp, and Zhu Di, the king of Yan, came with the army.

Involving the life and death of millions of people in Jiangxi Province, Zhu Di was also anxious, and rushed to Jiangxi with Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui's two sons.

"Zimin, you were the secretary of the Ministry of Industry earlier, and you will arrange the specific command matters."

In Shangrao County, Zhu Yunwen instructed the establishment of a "flood control headquarters," and the reason why Shangrao County was chosen was because Poyang County was too close to Poyang Lake, and in consideration of safety factors, although Zhu Yunwen was unwilling to return to Nanjing, he could only move to Shangrao County in Guangxin Prefecture.

The so-called flood control headquarters is definitely the temporary organ with the greatest power in the Ming Dynasty at present, and in order to make every effort to ensure the success of the flood control in Jiangxi, the flood situation will be transmitted to an expedited period of 800 miles, and anyone who obstructs the flood and disobeys the command will be punished.

In addition to Jiangxi, several surrounding provinces under the jurisdiction of the flood control headquarters will also be subject to unconditional command, and the official warehouses of the provinces will be fully opened up and ready to send grain and straw to Jiangxi at any time.

Because the current Jiangxi has an army of 700,000 in the Ming Dynasty!

Among them, in addition to more than 200,000 elite Beijing battalions, there are more than 400,000 military households from five provinces!

"Once the embankment bursts, then Jiujiang Mansion, Nanchang Mansion, and Raozhou Mansion will be the largest disaster areas in the north, and at the same time, once the Yangtze River floods, as a tributary, the Ganjiang River running through the north and south of the river will also make a fuss."

In front of Jiangxi's Kanyu map, Yan Zhen was sweating profusely: "Your Majesty, the prospect of flood control will be very grim. ”

At present, the water level of several waterlines in Jiangxi that are prone to flooding is far faster than the speed at which embankments are being built, and even if hundreds of thousands of troops are added, they will not be able to work at all.

Moreover, as the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, under the heavy rain in Jiangxi for several days, Zhejiang and Nanzhili also began to report flood conditions, but it is much smaller than Jiangxi, and it is completely within the controllable range.

The concentration area of this rainstorm falling from the sky is still in Jiangxi.

"Now there are 300,000 people guarding the Yangtze River, 200,000 people guarding Poyang Lake, and 100,000 people guarding the Ganjiang River."

Yan Zhenzhi didn't close his eyes for two days, and his eyes were bloodshot at this time: "Once you can't hold it, Jiangxi Province will be over!" ”

Zhu Yunwen looked at the map silently, and only after a long time did he speak: "Hold on." ”

After that, Zhu Yunwen stood up and walked out of the tent, as the emperor's guard, Geng Xuan hurriedly greeted him.

"The whole army is assembled."

There are still 100,000 people in the Chinese army, who are responsible for guarding the emperor Zhu Yunwen, in addition to these 100,000 Beijing battalion soldiers, there are also nearly 5,000 people under the jurisdiction of the Imperial Front Division, such as Jinyi Guard, left and right Jinwuwei, etc., all of whom stayed in Shangrao, which was too wasteful.

On the high platform, in just half a cup of tea, the soldiers of the 100,000 Beijing battalion completed the assembly, and quietly raised their heads to look at Zhu Yunwen who had changed into a military uniform.

"The sky is beautiful, and today there was a rare stop to a burst of rain."

Looking up at the sky, under the dense clouds, it seems that more rain is brewing.

But Zhu Yunwen still pretended to be relaxed and said: "It seems that the so-called dragon king is angry, and he is also afraid of the sharpness of our Ming soldiers." ”

Under the high stage, 100,000 athletes had a look of pride on their faces.

"My memory is always good."

Zhu Yunwen stretched out his finger and pointed to a hundred households in the front row who were about thirty years old: "I remember that you were a soldier in Beiping earlier, and you were the personal guard of King Yan. ”

Seeing that the emperor could remember his name, the hundred households knelt down on one knee excitedly: "Long live my emperor!" ”

"When I went to the southwest in person, I also saw you."

Zhu Yunwen said, looking around: "I look familiar with many other people, although I can't remember all the names, but I know your past."

Some of you fought with the grassland people in the north in your early years, some fought in the southwest, and some of you were born in Fujian and Zhejiang.

Some of you have fought from the north to the south and from the south to the east in your life, fighting horses for more than ten years, fighting dozens of battles large and small, and making contributions to our Ming Dynasty.

Your opponents have been steppe people, Koreans, pirates, and rogues, and all of your former opponents have been defeated and conquered by you.

You are the most powerful and elite army under this firmament!

I am proud of you, Daming, proud of you! ”

The 100,000-strong army was full of pride and responded in unison: "Long live my emperor!" ”

"From today onwards, you will have a new adversary, an even more formidable enemy."

Zhu Yunwen said in a deep voice: "An enemy that has never dared to resist by ancestors for thousands of years, that is the sky and nature!" ”

Heaven and earth seemed to be quiet at this moment, and the faces of the 100,000 army were much more solemn.

"Heavy rain fell from the sky, more than ten months in a row, the river water rose sharply, and the flood of the embankment was only in the evening, once the embankment burst, in an instant, millions of people were displaced, and tens of thousands of hectares of fertile land were submerged."

Zhu Yunwen's tone became higher and higher, and green tendons appeared on his face.

"Since ancient times, no ancestor has ever defeated the heavens and nature, therefore, floods are frequent, and our ancestors can only watch the flood raging, watching the flood starve all over the wilderness, and change children to eat!"

The knuckles clutching the railing are unnaturally pinched and white.

"Tell me, do you want to see this?"

"I don't want to!"

"Tell me what your duty is!"

"Defend the family and the country!"

"That's right."

Zhu Yunwen affirmed: "To protect the family is to defend the country, and to defend the country is to protect every home!" Do you still remember those two sentences I wrote in Jingying? ”

"A soldier takes obedience to orders as his duty and defends honor as his duty!"

Zhu Yunwen said solemnly.

"I know that many of you are not from Jiangxi, you are from all over the world, but today, you are all gathered in Jiangxi.

You will go to every flood danger river embankment port, in order to protect the people of Jiangxi, and similarly, in your hometown, there are many athletes like you who criticize my Ming armor and fight bloodily to protect your family.

I hope you will not be afraid of the Flood Beast, which is no more terrible than the sword on the battlefield.

I believe you can defeat it, conquer it, just like all the enemies you have conquered! ”

The 100,000 athletes were full of enthusiasm, and they were greatly encouraged by the affirmation and encouragement from the emperor.

"Beat it! Conquer it! ”

"In history, there has never been such a high fighting spirit as my Ming soldiers today."

Zhu Yunwen clenched his fists: "When the day you triumph, your name will be forever engraved in history, a thousand years, ten thousand years, future generations will remember you, remember your achievements, remember your honor, remember this day!"

Because on this day, you have conquered the heavens and nature! ”

Conquer the sky and nature, and the history will last forever!

Taking over a military flag, Zhu Yunwen pulled out the sword of the Son of Heaven at his waist, and in the disbelief of everyone, he slowly cut through his palm, sprinkling blood on the military flag.

"My blood is on this banner, and wherever you go, the banner will be there, and I will be there! I am always with you.

Long live Daming, Daming Erlang, long live! ”

Under the clouds, there were 100,000 excited faces, a roar that could move for nine days.

"The Ming Dynasty will win, long live my emperor!"

Seeing that the morale and fighting spirit had reached its peak, Zhu Di saw the eyes sent by Zhu Yunwen and took a step forward in understanding.

"The life and death of the people and the interests of the country are above all else! We are all soldiers, and from the day we put on our armor, we have no choice but to die to protect the Yangtze River embankment, the Ganjiang River embankment, and the Poyang Lake embankment! Today, our generation of soldiers should be determined to live and die with the embankment and Jiangxi! ”

"Swear to live and die with the embankment, and swear to live and die with Jiangxi!"

Turning to face Zhu Yunwen, Zhu Di solemnly took off his helmet: "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, the embankment, you can hold it!" ”
