Zhu Qipai listened to Zhu Jianwen's words, and said suspiciously: "Seeing and hearing, this" Zhu Jianwen winked at Zhu Qipai, Zhu Qipai didn't say much, and watched his son turn the tide and turn the tide.

Zhu Jianwen sighed again before he said: "You are now gone, we are like a lonely boat in the sea, if you want to surrender, I will not stop you, now you can surrender with the white flag high, how can you only obey the destiny of heaven in the future, you cherish." Saying that, Zhu Jianwen pulled out the sword hanging from his waist and shouted: "If you don't want to surrender, follow me to the city wall, go to the position and hold it desperately, and wait for Qu Xiangtian's reinforcements to arrive." ”

Zhu Jianwen walked out with his head held high, Zhu Qi was stunned and walked out, a sense of sadness arose in the hearts of the generals of the vassal kings, they may have made a wrong bet, this is a bet that must be lost unless the heavenly army comes, or Qu Xiangtian can quickly break the barrier of Nanjing and come to support,

Zhu Jianwen walked out of the courtyard, turned a corner and stopped waiting for Zhu Qipai to catch up, sure enough, Zhu Jianwen just stopped with his front foot, and Zhu Qipai chased after him, Zhu Qipai asked in a low voice: "Seeing and hearing, what the hell are you doing." Zhu Jianwen replied with a mysterious smile: "Father, don't worry, if I don't say this, and carry out the previous order of the fleeing and surrendering to the enemy, maybe they may be confused for a while and tie us up to ask for merit from the imperial court, but after I just said that the lonely city was besieged, I was giving them a way to live, at this time they will think about what will happen if they surrender, naturally everyone is not stupid, and they will definitely know that if they surrender, they will not be able to escape the purge in the future, at this time, They will all work together with us to fight the enemy, but this is a risky move, and I don't know if it will succeed. ”

"In this way, what you said earlier is that the three armies have formed a situation of encirclement against us, and they are deliberately deceiving them." Zhu Qijian asked, Zhu Jianwen smiled bitterly and said, "That's true, otherwise how could I be forced to come up with this strategy of putting death and resurrection." ”

Zhu Qi was stunned and said, "Is this skill successful?" "I don't know, Father, you see, it's done." Zhu saw and heard that he pretended to walk towards the city gate, only to see the vassal kings and generals from the courtyard come out one after another, and shouted in his mouth: "Swear to live and die with King Wu." As Zhu saw and heard, everyone in the courtyard just now thought about it, and then looked at each other, and suddenly understood that since they had rebelled, only by fighting to the death could they have a glimmer of life.

A day later, the army that everyone "looked forward to" finally besieged the city, the first battle was the trenches and arrow towers on the southern periphery, Zhu Jianwen personally went into battle, greatly boosted their morale, Henan Beicao Army attacked, but helplessly the original Beicao Army was a second-class army, plus it was defeated many times by the Qinwang Army, so it was a little timid, after the two sides rushed each other several times, but drove the Henan Beicao Army out of seven or eight miles, Qinwang Army did not take advantage of the victory to pursue back to the trenches, but the military prestige greatly boosted everyone's confidence,

On the second day, the Shandong Beicao Army on the west side also launched an attack, although the Shandong Beicao Army is also a second-class army, but because of the actual combat experience gained in the war between the capital and Wara, and was transferred to several capable generals, so the attack was much more orderly, and soon captured the peripheral positions on the west side, Zhu Jianwen confronted the enemy in the south, and had no time to take care of the west side, Zhu Qijiao personally went into battle, and rushed to the lost position, this day both sides were robbing each other of the positions on the west side of Jinan Mansion, and the casualties were as many as thousands back and forth, It was not until the evening that Zhu saw and heard that the troops came to the rescue and completely regained the position, although this day was extremely difficult, but it was also basically a victory, and it was a great joy.

On the third day, the Shenji Battalion and the 3,000 Battalion located in the north of Jinan Prefecture still did not attack, they had been here for a day, but they had been doing a wait-and-see attitude, at noon, the two armies on the west side of the south launched an attack at the same time, this time the attack was more violent, which was also mixed with ghost attacks, Zhu saw and heard that he saw that the five ugly and one vein had helped the south of his defense, and it was reported that the west should be the lone wolf vein of Mongolia,

In order to prevent the rout of the whole line Zhu Jianwen decisively ordered the withdrawal of the army back to the city, at this time the Shenji battalion and the three thousand battalions launched an attack, which was also mixed with this beast drive, all kinds of beasts went crazy and rushed towards the soldiers, the retreating sergeants suffered heavy casualties, Zhu Jianwen withdrew to the city, and reflexively led the troops to rescue the north, after a fight, he snatched back some people, after returning to the city, he hurriedly ordered the number of people to be counted, and found that after three days of fighting, his own losses were more than 8,000 people, and the wounded were as many as tens of thousands. There were only 100,000 casualties, and among them were a large number of believers who believed in Wu Tianshi, who were loyal but poorly trained.

Jinan Mansion is a small city, 100,000 people crowded in the city is slightly crowded, but at this time Zhu Jianwen is not enough soldiers, will not be enough, there is a moat on the edge of the city of Jinan Mansion, there are four bridges on the river, Zhu Jianwen blew up three of the bridges, leaving only one facing the north, Zhu Jianwen overnight configured the secret medicine of the Zhongzheng pulse into the moat, the whole moat suddenly became a poisonous river, but Zhu Jianwen did not learn the combination of these drugs, at this moment some books to use the time to hate less sigh, the moat through Zhu Jianwen's poisoning, Although it will not kill if it gets wet, it will burn the skin and cause great pain, which is enough.

There are a lot of spring veins in Jinan Mansion, even if the moat is poisonous, it does not affect the drinking water in the city, which can be bitter for the Ming army attacking outside the city, the rivers are poisonous and can only be drilled to get water, fortunately, there are a lot of underground spring veins around, and it takes no effort to dig out a few streams of water,

Zhu Jianwen sent 10,000 people to guard the Lishan Gate, and sent 10,000 people to guard the Luoyuan Gate, and 10,000 people guarded the Huibo Gate, 20,000 people were dispatched in the center, and the remaining 50,000 people were all crowded in the Jichuan Gate in the north.

Not only that, Zhu Jianwen also continued to send people to strengthen the city wall near Jichuan Gate, in just one day, the city wall was increased by one zhang, and the thickness was also amazing, Zhu Jianwen looked at the Ming army gradually gathering in front of him worriedly, and his heart was uneasy, looking forward to the early battle and a duel, and looking forward to the other party's later attack to make more preparations and wait for reinforcements, but is there really any reinforcements, this question even Zhu Jianwen himself does not know,
