Chapter 56: Outside Beiping
The arrogance of the bandit leader made Zhu Di's heart tighten, Zhu Di stared at the bandit leader, he never expected that his identity could not even deter the little bandit, but made him more arrogant, he did not dare to act rashly, the bandit seemed to be more arrogant than the Sichuan rebels he had encountered in Yunnan before.
"Hurry up and get out of the car! Lao Tzu can't wait to see what the prince of Daming is like..."Before the bandit leader finished speaking, he stared at the black pipe coming out of the window of Zhu Di's carriage in a daze, and before he could press the trigger of the firearm.
"Noise!" The child's crisp voice sounded, and with a loud bang, the bandit leader who was arrogant and domineering before fell to the ground, like the dead guard, his face was also full of disbelief, the bandit leader had a bloody hole in his head, the wound was slightly burned, and there were a few wisps of green smoke from Zhu Di's carriage window.
"Hey, I didn't want to do this, who told you to touch him?" Ma Sanbao opened his mouth and said, how can Zhu Di be coveted by this group of bandits? Ma Sanbao regards Zhu Di as his backer, who is this? The future emperor, this group of bandits wants to ask for benefits from the future emperor, don't even think about it.
With the fall of the bandit leader with the firecracker, the bandits were in chaos, although they had the firecracker, but they had it in the hands of the leader, and the other bandits did not have the firecracker, seeing that their leader was dead in vain, they also knew that Zhu Di's convoy also had lethal weapons similar to firecrackers, and as soon as the bandit leader died, the bandits were naturally leaderless.
"Toast without eating and drinking! Destroy them all! Zhu Di said coldly, "Bury that brother!" ”
For a while, the crowd was furious, the guards who had tripped down immediately broke free, pulled out a sharp blade from the bandit's waist and stabbed into the thief's chest, Zhu Di's guards were all veterans of the army, they had been on the battlefield for a long time to kill the bandits, and the bandits were not the opponents of Zhu Di's guards at all.
The bandit leader never thought that he would kick the iron plate until he died, and the idea of the Ming royal family was doomed.
"Still want to escape? Wen He and I will destroy the enemy personally! Black Wind Village, right? Wait for the master, I'll go and kill the mouth! Zhu Di spoke, he stepped out of the carriage, looked at the fleeing bandits, and longed to go on the field to exterminate them. I have heard of the murderous name of Heifeng Village, Nanjing City, but this group of bandits is cunning, and every time they hear the news of the officers and soldiers, they do not move, and Zhu Yuanzhang's focus is now on foreign wars, and he is not so concerned about the affairs of the bandits, which also increases the arrogance of the bandits, Zhu Di and Zhu Yuanzhang are different, the bandits have broken ground on their heads, and he naturally does not want to let go of the Black Wind Village.
"Bah, Your Highness, you want to go up on yourself, you really want me to go to the thief's cottage to exterminate it, I won't go, even if I have an AK, I won't go, this is to die! Or AK to you, you go, I'll wait for your good news in the car! Ma Sanbao said to Zhu Di seriously, Zhu Di was also a rare person to see Ma Sanbao's serious look, and the child who used to play treasure in front of him suddenly became serious, which made Zhu Di understand the seriousness of the matter.
The fourth prince touched his head, and suddenly felt that he did think too much, and went to the bandit's lair to exterminate the bandits, and he and Ma Sanbao did not have enough troops to go, it was indeed to send them to death, after all, two fists are hard to beat four hands, and the heroes can't stand the crowd, and he also knows that the gun in Ma Sanbao's hand is not endless, once all the bullets in the magazine are finished, it needs to be reloaded, and it takes time to reload, maybe there is another fire gun in the bandit's lair, and he is completely sent to death.
The fire gun on the ground attracted Zhu Di's attention, for the death of the guard, Zhu Di was not too touched, after all, for him, the guard is just a guard, but Ma Sanbao is different, Ma Sanbao, who has been influenced by socialism, is most unaccustomed to the shackles of feudal thought, and the thick burial is also proposed by Ma Sanbao, otherwise as far as Zhu Di is concerned, he will not be too concerned about a guard.
"Sister Medicine Fairy, it's okay." Ma Sanbao walked to the carriage of the medicine fairy, but he sealed the curtain of the medicine fairy, not letting the medicine fairy poke out his head, and now the casualties were tragic, there were Zhu Di's guards, there were also bandits, most of them were the corpses of the bandits, Zhu Di's guards were killed by the fire gun before, and there was a serious injury, and other doctors went to treat it, such a bloody and tragic scene, Ma Sanbao didn't want the medicine fairy to be scared.
"No one was hurt?" Inside the car, a soft voice came, there had been bandits who had approached Yao Xian's carriage before, but fortunately, Zhu Di's guards stopped him, otherwise if Yao Xian was discovered by the bandits, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"It's just one person, and a doctor has already gone to treat it, so my sister can rest assured, just don't be frightened." Ma Sanbao said that there were only two people he couldn't let go of in this group of people, Zhu Di and Yao Xian, after all, Yao Xian was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen, and he didn't want the woman he fancied to be hurt.
"That's good." Yao Xian spoke, Ma Sanbao insisted on not letting her get out of the car, she didn't force her to get out of the car, Yao Xian sat in the car understandingly, but her calm appearance made Ma Sanbao a little puzzled, why Yao Xian didn't panic at all when the thieves were clamoring for a woman before.
The medicine fairy was fine, which made Ma Sanbao lose his breath, and after probing the other maids and attendants, he silently got into the carriage and waited for the attendants and guards to clean up the mess.
"It's really unlucky, I just set off and met a bandit, maybe I will encounter something in the future! Wenhe, can you have enough ammunition for this magic weapon? "Don't look at Zhu Di's calm appearance, in fact, his heart is beating faster, the previous bandit leader had a fire gun pointing at him, if it weren't for Ma Sanbao's AK being faster than the fire gun, maybe he would have died in Huangquan, he Zhu Di is still young, but he is in his early twenties, he doesn't want to die so unexplained, maybe this will be the first prince in history to die in the hands of the bandits.
"Don't worry, the ammunition is absolutely sufficient, and a lot can be built in Nanjing City!" Ma Sanbao is telling the truth, he has built tens of thousands of bullets in the industrial park, and now they are all in the carriage behind, even if it is Zhu Di's carriage, there are four magazines prepared, and he is not afraid of the situation of insufficient bullets, if it weren't for the AK reload, it would be too troublesome, he didn't have the ability to unlimited bullets, otherwise he could really go with Zhu Di and the two to exterminate the bandit cottage of Heifeng Village.
Seeing that the bandits were far away from their sight and could not even observe the movements of the bandits with binoculars, Zhu Di's convoy set off, and they soon came to the nearest city to Nanjing, Zhu Di sent the local officers and soldiers to customize a coffin, and sent the body of the dead guard back to Nanjing City quickly, and at the same time, according to Ma Sanbao's request, gave the guard's family a large amount of burial expenses.
Nanjing City to Beiping, if there is a bullet train can be reached in just a few hours, unfortunately, this group of people in Daming does not have such a means of transportation, can only use the carriage, from Nanjing to Beiping, take a carriage and travel fatigue, it takes three days to arrive, fortunately, there is a city along the way to rest, Zhu Di as a prince into the city will naturally not be hindered by anything.
Along the way, because of the bandit attack of Heifeng Village, Zhu Di's guards were extremely vigilant, even if there was wind and grass around, they could attract everyone's attention, they didn't dare to slack off, they just left Nanjing City and a brother died, they were all a lot more vigilant, even ordinary people they would stare at the people away from the convoy before letting down their guard.
At the beginning of the first month, Beiping was covered with snow, and along the way, except for the bandits of Heifengzhai who did not have long eyes, there were no other bandits who stopped the convoy of Zhu Di and others. Outside the city of Beiping, there was no snow on the road leading to Beiping, and when he learned the news of Zhu Di's arrival in Beiping, the yamen of Beiping swept away the snow in front of the door very well and let Zhu Di's convoy go.
In the distance is the magnificent Great Wall, Beiping and Nanjing City are a little different, in terms of area, Beiping is a little bigger, from the city, Beiping is even more magnificent than Nanjing City, it is no wonder that in Ma Sanbao's cognition, Beiping will become the national capital after Zhu Di changed the name of Beijing.
The city gate of Beiping is close in front of you, the weather is cold, even the moat is covered with thin ice, in terms of weather, Beiping is a little colder than Nanjing City, Zhu Di and Ma Sanbao couldn't help but wrap their clothes tightly.
"Welcome to the Fourth Highness Lord Zhu Di to Beiping!" The officials of Beiping said respectfully that there is no imperial palace in Beiping, and in Beiping, the status of the yamen is more authoritative than the yamen of Nanjing City in the eyes of the people, and there is less of the constraints of such a behemoth as the imperial palace, and the official government of Beiping is the largest institution in the whole of Beiping.
The battle to welcome Zhu Di in Beiping was not small, most of the officials stood outside the city gate of Beiping, standing in a row in the order of official positions, and even the prefect of Beiping came to the outside of Beiping to welcome Zhu Di's arrival.
If Zhu Di came to Beiping as a prince, the prefect may not appear in front of Zhu Di, but now it is different, Zhu Di came to Beiping City in the name of the general of Zhenbei, which naturally attracted the attention of the prefect, the identity of the general of Zhenbei is much more noble than the identity of the vassal king, this is an identity worthy of friendship, a leader in the war, the status of the prince in the future will also be improved, the prefect also took a fancy to Zhu Di's potential to come to Beiping outside the city, otherwise with their identity, the general well water does not violate the river water.
"I heard that His Royal Highness is going to Beiping this time to open an industrial park about the same size as Nanjing City, and the minister has already prepared this point, and even the title deed has been prepared for you." Just came to Beiping City, the prefect of Beiping gave Zhu Di a big gift, and the bright red mark on the title deed attracted the attention of Zhu Di and Ma Sanbao.
