"Kill!" Cao Minxiu took the lead, leading thousands of people to escort Zheng Mengzhou and others to the city gate, and the defenders in front of the city gate were also killed by surprise in a hurry, but they quickly occupied the city gate, and then the city gate was opened, and the two were preparing to escape from the city.

According to the plan agreed between Zheng Mengzhou and Jiang Zheng before, the Ming army will meet them outside the city, and then they will support Wang Xing as the king of Goryeo, so that they will have the capital to confront Li Chenggui, but Kaesong can no longer stay, after all, Kaesong is Li Chenggui's lair, so they plan to protect Wang Xing to Jianghua Island, and then call on the forces that resist Li Chenggui from all over the country to work together with the king.

However, what Zheng Mengzhou never expected was that as soon as they opened the city gate, Zhu Di, who had been waiting outside the city for a long time, took the lead in entering the city, and the 3,000 people behind him were all selected elite soldiers.

This unplanned situation made Zheng Mengzhou and Cao Minxiu all stunned, didn't they just say that they were just responding, why did the Ming army suddenly enter the city, did they want to rely on this little force to occupy the entire Kaesong?

In fact, Zheng Mengzhou really guessed correctly, and at this time, he saw Jiang Zhen find Zheng Mengzhou helplessly and said: "Zheng Shizhong, the plan has changed, Kaesong is the capital of Goryeo, whoever occupies this place will occupy the orthodoxy of Goryeo, so you must not give up here, you go back with our army and drive Li Chenggui out of Kaesong!" ”

"How can this be, our plan was not like this before, and with only our little strength, how can we defeat Li Chenggui?" Zheng Mengzhou was also very annoyed when he heard this, in his opinion, the Ming army was simply too arrogant, even if their army was elite, but Li Chenggui's army was not bad, and there were tens of thousands, and in the face of several times the enemy, they had no chance of winning at all.

"I can't help it, this is a decision made by His Royal Highness King Yan, so we can only follow it!" Jiang Zhen said helplessly again, he changed Li Jie's plan, and as a result, Zhu Di also changed his plan, but if they can really occupy Kaesong, it will definitely be a great thing for them.

"King Yan? Are you talking about the Yan King in Beiping? He's here too? Zheng Mengzhou was also taken aback when he heard this, he went to the Ming Dynasty many times, made friends with the officials in the Ming Dynasty, and of course heard of Zhu Di, the king of Yan.

"Exactly, the one who rushed into the city gate first just now was His Royal Highness King Yan!" Jiang Zhen nodded, and as he spoke, he turned his head to look ahead, only to find that Zhu Di had led his army to the street corner in front of him, and had engaged the pursuers sent by Li Chenggui.

"Oops! He is a prince, how can he be in danger? You...... You guys are such nonsense! Zheng Mengzhou was also frightened when he heard this, because he thought that if something happened to Zhu Di in Kaecheng, the Ming Emperor who was protecting the short would definitely go crazy, and when the Son of Heaven was angry, they would probably have to go thousands of miles to the ground, and they might even be completely wiped out by the Ming Dynasty!

Thinking of the serious consequences of this incident, Zheng Mengzhou didn't care about anything else, and immediately ordered Cao Minxiu to lead his troops to support Zhu Di, now he has forgotten the victory or defeat of this coup, and now the most important thing is to save Zhu Di's life, and he must not let him have an accident in Goryeo, otherwise no matter who wins between him and Li Chenggui, there will be no good end in Goryeo in the end!

However, Zheng Mengzhou still underestimated Zhu Di too much, and when he and Cao Minxiu led their troops to support, they found that Zhu Di had defeated Li Chenggui's pursuers, and then fought back all the way, and Li Chenggui's army was almost like paper in front of him, and it was simply vulnerable.

In fact, this situation is also normal, Goryeo was originally at the end of a dynasty, the army had long been decayed, plus it was ruled by Meng Yuan before, and it was even cut off by Meng Yuan's castration, and even after Meng Yuan's destruction, they couldn't defeat the remnants of Meng Yuan.

In contrast, Zhu Di's elite soldiers slaughtered the Mongols, whether it was experience or equipment, and even their morale far exceeded that of the Goryeo army, so these Goryeo people were like three-year-old children in front of them, and they had no power to resist at all.

Zheng Mengzhou didn't expect that Zhu Di, His Royal Highness the King of Yan, would be so brave, which made him suddenly increase a lot of confidence, according to the development of this situation, they might really be able to control the entire Kaesong.

Thinking of this, Zheng Mengzhou also decided to fight, he immediately wrote some letters by hand, and then sent people to the hands of some ministers and generals in the city, these people were all neutrals before, although they did not support him, but they did not fall to Li Chenggui, now that his side is attacking rapidly, he can win over these people, maybe someone will see that the situation is not right and stand on his side.

Zhu Di was not surprised, although he was irascible, but he was a natural commander, which he inherited from Lao Zhu's military talent, as early as Jeju Island, he had already let people collect the situation of the Goryeo army, in his opinion, the Goryeo army was the same as their dynasty, it had long been decayed, as long as a light push would completely collapse.

The fleeing Goryeo army in front of him also confirmed Zhu Di's guess, as soon as he fought with the Goryeo army, Zhu Di was very keenly judged that his decision was correct, although he only had 3,000 people in his hands, but he could definitely defeat Kaesong, and with the help of Zheng Mengzhou, it was not difficult to take over the capital of the Goryeo people.

At the same time, Li Chenggui and Li Fangyuan, father and son, also led troops to the palace, and they just sent people to hunt down Zheng Mengzhou and others, because compared to Zheng Mengzhou, controlling the king of Goryeo was the first task.

However, as soon as Li Chenggui and the others arrived at the palace, before they could control the king of Goryeo, they saw someone running in in a panic and shouting: "It's a big deal, Ming...... The Ming army is coming into the city! ”

"What?" Li Chenggui's face changed when he heard this, they had guessed that the plan to assassinate Zheng Mengzhou was leaked from Da Ming, because in addition to him and his henchmen, only Da Ming knew that although there was no evidence, Li Chenggui had secretly decided not to let the Ming army enter the city, but he didn't expect the other party to kill him.

"I don't know if it's the Ming army, Zheng Mengzhou and Cao Minxiu also led the troops to follow, it looks like they should be in a group, and now they have killed the pursuers and are killing here in the palace!" Someone came to report again.

Li Chenggui's face also changed when he heard this, the chasing soldiers he sent were already the elite of his subordinates, but he didn't expect to be killed by the Ming army so quickly, and the Ming army did it directly, obviously confirming their previous speculation, Zheng Mengzhou and Da Ming really colluded together.

"Mobilize troops and drive the Ming army out of the city for me!" Li Chenggui yelled in annoyance, originally the Ming army was a reinforcement he invited, but he didn't expect it to become an obstacle to himself now, he knew this, of course he shouldn't have agreed to Li Jie.

Thinking of Li Jie, Li Chenggui was even more angry and wanted to kill someone, he used the entire Jeju Island to exchange a promise to Li Jie, but he didn't expect that the other party was playing with him at all, instead of helping, he also helped Zheng Mengzhou and these people to deal with him, which was too deceitful!

"Father is angry, it's too late to regret it now, why don't I personally lead the troops to meet these Ming troops for a while!" Li Fangyuan saw his father's thoughts, and immediately persuaded him first, and then took the initiative to ask for help.

"It's okay, you go and teach those Ming troops a lesson, as far as I know, the number of Ming troops should not be much, and they dare to take the initiative to kill in the city, it's just looking for death!" Li Chenggui also nodded when he heard this, he didn't know that the Ming army was led by Zhu Di, and he didn't know that the Ming army was extremely combative, and it was not certain who would win or lose now.

Li Fangyuan took the order and left, and soon mobilized an army of tens of thousands of people, and then rushed to the direction where the Ming army was coming, but the two sides met unexpectedly on the main road of Kaesong, and then a fierce battle broke out.

Li Fangyuan originally thought that he had the advantage of troops, even if he couldn't defeat the Ming army, he could easily stop the other party, and when other reinforcements in the city came, under the attack from several sides, the Ming army was undefeated and defeated.

However, when the real battle was engaged, Li Fangyuan was shocked to find that the Ming army in front of him was extremely elite, especially the 1,000 cavalry in front, which was even more unstoppable, and his front line was easily torn apart by the other party, and then the foot soldiers in the rear swarmed up, and his army was killed and retreated, and he couldn't even organize a decent counterattack.

What's worse is that although this main road is wide, it still can't accommodate too many people to fight head-on, Li Fangyuan can only send more than 1,000 people forward at a time, so the advantage of troops in his hands can't be brought into play at all, but the cavalry of the Ming Dynasty galloped across the streets, slashing and killing the Goryeo soldiers along the streets, which was even stronger than the Mongolian cavalry of that year.

"No wonder even the mighty Mongols are no match for them, when will we have such an army in Goryeo?" Li Fangyuan looked at his subordinates who were retreating and was also heartbroken, and then he suddenly found that in the face of absolute power, the scheming that he was proud of before was completely vulnerable.

"Block it for me, who dares to take a step back, cut!" Li Fangyuan roared again, and after speaking, he sent his own soldiers forward as the supervising team, and whoever dared to retreat was immediately executed, so that the army would not collapse for the time being.

However, Li Fangyuan knew that under the charge of the Ming army, the army under his command would not last long, and if they were defeated and retreated, the Ming army would probably really have to kill the palace, and then his father and the king of Goryeo would fall into the hands of the Ming Dynasty.

Thinking of this, Li Fangyuan also immediately made a decision, he handed over the command to his henchmen, and then rode back to the palace alone, and immediately shouted when he saw his father: "Father, the Ming army is sharp, I'm afraid that the city is about to be lost, let's quickly escape from the city with the king, so that there will be a chance to make a comeback in the future!" ”

"What!" Li Chenggui never expected that Li Fangyuan would suddenly run back, and persuaded him to abandon the city and flee, could they not even stop the Ming army of a few thousand people?
