"Your Majesty, this is the Chu Palace."

Although Hong Chengchou ordered people to demolish the city wall of the royal city of the Chu Wangfu, the main building of the Chu Wangfu was basically preserved.

It's just that Li Dingguo was obviously a little embarrassed when he said this.

Back then, he followed his father-in-law to fight in the south and the north, and when he reached Huguang, he naturally inevitably plundered.

After conquering Wuchang, they plundered for three days.

Although these are all things in the past, they still leave a deep imprint.

Although the Son of Heaven doesn't say it, there must still be a mustard in his heart, right?

"Although I don't know the king of Chu, I still hope that the Chu domain can have descendants left, at least to continue the incense of this vein."

Zhu Youlang paused and said, "Spread my will and search for the descendants of the Chu Domain in Wuchang City." ”

Although he knew that there were few chances of finding the queen of Chu, Zhu Youlang still wanted to give it a try.

This can be regarded as a gesture to appease the people of Chudi.

"Obey the order!"

Li Dingguo hurriedly responded.

Your Majesty, this is an opportunity for him to make meritorious contributions, he must seize it!

"Please also ask Your Majesty to go to the palace of the King of Chu to rest first, and then return to Your Majesty after the ministers control the whole city and exterminate the remnants of the Eastern Captives."

Zhu Youlang nodded and said, "Where are the remnants of the Eastern Captives gathered now?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, most of the Dongyu fled to the Snake Mountain, trying to resist stubbornly."

Li Dingguo clenched his fists and said: "But Your Majesty, please rest assured, before sunset today, the minister will lead his troops to take down Snake Mountain and cut off the head of the thief." ”

Zhu Youlang nodded with satisfaction: "I am waiting here for the good news of King Jin!" ”

...

...

The Qing army, under the command of the Wuchang General Army, built several simple lines of defense on Snake Mountain.

In fact, they also knew in their hearts that Snake Mountain could not be defended at all.

Even a fortified city like Wuchang can't hold it, let alone a mountain?

But ants still steal life, let alone people?

It is a moment to live, and no one wants to be cut off and buried in the ground until the last moment.

Even if you really want to die, you have to pull a few cushions.

Otherwise, wouldn't it be in vain?

"Lord Commander, this stone path is the only way up the mountain, as long as we set up an ambush here, we will definitely make the thieves suffer heavy losses."

"Hmph, if you want Lao Tzu to die, you have to take your life."

His heart was now full of anger and resentment, Hu Quancai, the dog thief, who left them and ran away alone, completely ignoring their lives and deaths.

A sense of humiliation of being treated as an outcast filled his heart.

There is nowhere to vent this evil fire, and those who hold it are bored.

Since it is destined to see blood, let's fight to the death!

...

...

"Brother Xuzi, you can rest for a while."

When Li Shishi saw Zhao Xu, who was covered in blood, his heart was inexplicably sour.

"Sit down and take a break for a drink."

The two eat and live together, which can be described as a fateful friendship.

Although he knew that Zhao Xu did not have any fatal injuries on his body, it was still very uncomfortable to see him like this.

"It's not tight, it's all some skin trauma, just treat it and bandage it simply."

Zhao Xu grinned, and he was in a very good mood.

Although the process of attacking Wuchang was a little difficult, it was finally taken.

Just take it down, and it won't be in vain for them to fight hard.

"But if you want to say Brother Xuzi, you can give us a long face this time. Our Tiger Ben Army has always been suppressed by the Jin Dynasty's army. Although His Majesty didn't say it, he was definitely unhappy in his heart. This time you're the first to go up to the top of the city, and we'll all be wiped out with you. ”

"Haha, it's just a little luckier."

Zhao Xu said a little embarrassed.

The two were chatting and laughing, and at that moment a man dressed as a chamberlain came on horseback.

"Phew!"

He tightened the reins of his horse and flipped off his horse.

"Which one is General Zhao Xu?"

He asked, glancing aloud.

"It's down there."

Zhao Xu arched his hand.

"Ah, General Zhao!"

The chamberlain squinted his eyes and smiled at Zhao Xu: "That's the case, General Zhao, Your Majesty heard about your bravery and specially summoned you." ”

Zhao Xu was stunned for a moment, and said in surprise: "Your Majesty wants to summon me?" ”

"Yes, you are the first warrior to climb the head of Wuchang City, and Your Majesty said that he will reward you heavily."

Zhao Xu said in horror: "How can the minister be so virtuous, so loved by His Majesty!" ”

"Hey, General Zhao, don't thank you here. If you want to thank you, you should be in front of Your Majesty. ”

The waiter took Zhao Xu's arm and was about to go out.

"Your Majesty is still waiting there, General Zhao, don't delay."

Zhao Xu shook his head and said, "How can I face the saint with this appearance?" According to the etiquette system, the saint must not bathe and burn incense before changing clothes? ”

"Hey, General Zhao, hey, I'm not so particular at this time. Your Majesty is waiting in the palace. If you bathe in incense and change clothes, how can it take half an hour, right? It's not appropriate, right? ”

Zhao Xu thought about it in his heart.

But wouldn't it be disrespectful to the Son of Heaven to face the blood stain of his current body?

It's a real headache.

After thinking about it, Zhao Xu said in a deep voice: "Why don't I go and change my armor first, and then face the saint with the envoy?" ”

The waiter's head shook like a rattle: "How many times do we have to say it to General Zhao before we understand?" Your Majesty is in a hurry to see you now, it doesn't matter what you are dressed in, it is only important to enter the palace quickly. ”

Li Shishi pulled the corner of Zhao Xu's clothes and gave him a look.

It is not a good choice to go against the envoy, otherwise if the envoy slanders in front of the Son of Heaven, a good thing will become a bad thing.

"Okay, I'll follow the envoy into the palace."

Zhao Xu finally nodded.

"That's right, as long as Your Majesty is happy, anything can be done!"

"Lead the horse!"

Zhao Xu said that, Li Shishi hurriedly brought the horse and personally helped Zhao Xu to get on the horse.

Zhao Xu threw a grateful look at him and said, "Thank you, brother!" ”

"Look at your brother Xuzi, why are we two brothers still seeing each other like this? You have been summoned by the Son of Heaven to the brothers, and they are glad for you. ”

Zhao Xu was still a little embarrassed in his heart.

The great contribution of the Tiger Benjun is not the credit of him Zhao Xu alone, but the credit of all the soldiers.

How good is he to take all the credit for himself.

No, this time he must ask for credit for the brothers of the Tiger Ben Army!

However, it was said that Zhao Xu and the lieutenant envoy beat their horses and whipped and went towards the palace of the king of Chu.

There were guarded Ming soldiers all the way, and Zhao Xu nodded secretly in his heart.

Whether it is Li Dingguo's subordinates or the soldiers of the Tiger Ben Army, the military discipline is maintained very well, and they can do nothing against the people.

This is important.

The common people have suffered from the tyranny of the East for a long time, and when they encounter such a lenient army and emperor, they will naturally rejoice in their hearts.

Those who win the hearts of the people win the world, this is not a lie.

Only with the support of the people of Wuchang and even Huguang can the Ming army gain a firm foothold in Huguang.
