Chapter 239: Fight, Xungui!
Songjiang genius named Luo Dagong and his friend, Zhang Huangyan and Zhang Xuanzhu of Yinxian County, soon knew that Huang Zongxi, Huang Taichong, who was praised by Emperor Chongzhen as a "loyal minister", said that Zhu Cihong's seven deadly sins were not all lies.
At least there must be homicide!
Otherwise, how did these salted, but still foul-smelling Tartar heads come from? There were nearly 3,000 ironclad cavalrymen, and each cavalryman carried a horse pistol with a hideous human head hanging on the tip of the spear!
Could it be that the Dagukou victory that killed 3,000 Tartars is really a thing? Even if it's true, you don't have to take 3,000 heads all the way from Dagukou to Jiangnan, right?
Stinky and scary......
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not only thirsty for killing, he is simply a perverted murderer!
In addition to the thirst for murder, there are also sins of delusion!
Because of these 3,000 iron cavalry, as well as the infantry, officials, family members, and righteous servants who came with them, they were all shouting in unison all the way: Emperor Taizu Gao is reincarnated, long live, long live!
Obviously, there are rumors that Zhu Cihong claimed to be the reincarnation of Emperor Taizu Gao! And not only self-proclaimed...... It is very likely that many soldiers of the New Army who have overcome difficulties believe in this false theory of reincarnation.
If this kind of thing is too big, it will be suspected of being a cult! The sin of deprivation is light.
As for greed, needless to say, there is no one more greedy than him among the emperors of the Ming Dynasty! In Huaiyang Erfu alone, not to mention the salt tax, not to mention the millions, but also copied four salt generals, and confiscated the land of eight Wei!
Imperiousness and unfilial piety are also certain! A prince who claims to be the reincarnation of Emperor Taizu Gao, is this not arbitrary, nor is it unfilial?
Five of the seven deadly sins have been fulfilled, and only cunning and fornication remain...... I guess I didn't run!
I really didn't expect the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty to be such a wicked person! It seems that in the future, if you become the official of the crown prince, you should be careful and be less greedy......
Just when Grand Duke Luo and Zhang Huangyan were shocked by Zhu Cihong's seven deadly sins, the last group of ironclad cavalry had passed in front of them, and they shouted loudly as they advanced: "His Majesty the Emperor and His Royal Highness the Prince of Fujun have arrived, and the officials and the people kneel down to greet them!" ”
It turned out that Zhu Cihong and Emperor Chongzhen's car was about to arrive!
Emperor Chongzhen and Empress Zhou shared a carriage, which was a very gorgeous carriage. And Zhu Cihong actually didn't take a car, but rode in, walking in front of the formation of the last ironclad cavalry, and walked side by side with Wu Sanmei and Wu Sanfu.
Seeing the scene of the people of Nanjing fleeing and bowing down, Zhu Cihong was quite proud. Wu Sanfu on the side smiled flatteringly: "With today's shock, if you want to come to Nandu Shilin, you will definitely know how powerful the Chitose Lord is!" ”
Zhu Cihong said with a smile: "Where is this?" Nanjing is called Liudu, but in fact, it has long been no longer under the shroud of imperial authority, otherwise the finances of the imperial court would not be so tight...... Look at it, there will definitely be people who will jump out and look for death! ”
Wu Sanfu smiled cruelly: "If there is really something that can't open your eyes, the ministers will clean it up for the Chitose Master!" ”
Zhu Cihong smiled, "The Qilin Gate has been taken?" ”
"Take it, it's all under control!" Wu Sanfu said.
"That's good!" Zhu Cihong smiled, "Later, we will camp in the Qilin Gate, and tonight we will let the nobles of Nanjing know how powerful we are in overcoming the new army!" Sanfu, you take someone to set up the Chinese army in the Qilin Gate! ”
"Order!"
Zhu Cihong then raised his voice again: "Feng Sizhong!" ”
"The last general!" Zhu Cihong's foreman guard Feng Sizhong rode forward.
"You go and bring Zhang Shenyan, Zhao Zhilong, and Han Zanzhou to the Chinese army in the main palace inside the Qilin Gate!"
"Command!"
Only then did Zhu Cihong turn his head and smile at Wu Sanmei: "Third sister, we're almost home!" This is our new home! ”
......
Nanjing Inner City, Dagongfang.
This famous mansion handed down by Xu Da's old man's family finally has a little bit of a killing aura at this time. Dressed in neat arrow suits, carrying swords and well-made bird guns, the Xu family lined up from the open main entrance of the Dagongfang all the way to the front of the grand lobby, all of them with straight chests and protruding bellies, which really looked like the same thing.
Xu Hongji's brothers and nephews also came, all wearing their respective official uniforms, holding swords in their hands, standing under the hall in a big way, so majestic!
In the courtyard in front of the lobby, I don't know when a big flag was erected, with four big characters on it: "King Fengtian Qin"!
Xu Hongji, who has been sick and crooked for many years, looks at Xu Hongji, who is about to die, at this time, he actually gives people a sense of glory, and he doesn't cough much, and there is a little blood on the face of a dead man who is yellow. The red python robe was worn on the body, and it covered the torso that it was so thin that only a handful of bones remained, giving people the illusion of majesty.
His sons Xu Yunjue and Xuzhou Jue, cousins Xu Yongji and Xu Mingji, as well as the fugitive Funing Marquis Zhu Guobi, as well as a few marquises, earls, and lords who obviously had no strength and preferred to touch in the troubled water, all sat on both sides of the hall.
As the Xu family who reported the news came in and out, these guys were all overjoyed.
Sounds good!
The prince did not bring many soldiers and horses, perhaps less than 20,000 people, and there were a large number of officials, family members, and ordinary people following, so he knew at a glance that he was not ready for a tough battle.
In addition, the Xu family, who inquired about the news, also reported that there were countless carriages in the prince's army! Some of these vehicles looked quite heavy, and there were a large number of brocade guards and ordinary soldiers around them, obviously some valuable things, which must be the gold and silver treasures that the prince had looted along the way.
If King Qin's matter succeeds this time, will this batch of gold and silver treasures have a share?
Everyone has donated money for this great cause......
"Grandpa, it's not good! Oh no! ”
A leader of Xu Hongji's cronies suddenly ran over and shouted outside the lobby.
"Come in and talk!"
Xu Hongji frowned, but still beckoned this person into the lobby.
The voice of the leader of this Ding was a little quieter: "...... Grandpa, the prince's men and horses entered the Qilin Gate. ”
Xu Hongji laughed: "I just want him to come in!" ”
Coming in to inform the family Ding shook his head, his face was extremely solemn, and his voice lowered by two points, "Guogong, the prince sent 3,000 ironclad cavalry into the city, and, and ....."
"And what?" Xu Hongji's eyebrows were raised, and he already faintly felt that something was wrong.
"And they all have a stinking Tartar head on the rifle they are carrying!"
"Tartar head? What's that? "Xu Hongji is also a descendant of Xu Da, but he didn't understand what a Tartar head was?
"It's the head of a Tartar!" The guy made a head-killing gesture and pouted, "That's how it was cut off!" ”
"Fake!" Xu Hongji waved his hand violently, "If there are three hundred Tartar heads, the old man Xu will believe it, three thousand...... Hehe, how is this possible? When did we have such a powerful general? It's impossible! ”
"yes, yes!"
"What the Guogong said is extremely true!"
"How could it be ......"
The family Ding looked at the Da Ming Xun Gui in the lobby and shook his head with disdain, and only sighed softly, and didn't say much-how could Da Ming not have a large number of soldiers who could cut off the heads of Tartars? The ancestors of all of you here are that!
Xu Hongji smiled at this time and asked again: "Where are the prince's men now?" Are you coming to Chaoyangmen? ”
"Nope." The family shook his head and said, "The prince's soldiers and horses are now guarding the Qilin Gate and the Crane Gate, and they are encamped between the two gates. Now east of the Qinhuai River, it has been completely controlled by the prince's soldiers and horses! ”
The Qinhuai River is a meandering river that flows downstream into the Yangtze River on the west side of Nanjing's inner city, while the upstream originates near Zhongshan. In the eastern part of Nanjing's outer outline, near Qilin Gate and Xianhe Gate, it shows a north-south trend.
"What?" Xu Hongji was stunned for a moment, "They occupy the east of the Qinhuai River, which ...... Is this going to fight us? ”
"I'm afraid so......" the guy nodded.
Xu Hongji laughed dryly: "So what? We have a geographical advantage, the number of people is several times larger, there is still the inner city of Nanjing to rely on, and the soldiers of the general of the thief will be able to arrive soon...... We have the chance to win, and we are foolproof! ”
