In the early morning of May 6 in the second year of Jianwen, Beiping.

Although the east was already white, the people inside and outside the city did not notice, they only saw the fire, the fire, the fire that soared into the sky. The palace caught fire, the political envoy's yamen caught fire, the inspection envoy's yamen caught fire, and some fang markets were also burning. The people of the city were in a panic, and there were many people fleeing, fighting fires, looking for relatives, and crying.

Zhang Fu inspected the city, assigned the soldiers and civilians to fight the fire, and returned to the palace with the remaining 1,500 soldiers. Seeing that there was a noise in front of the palace, almost all the fire armor in Beiping was concentrated here, busy fighting the fire, but the fire was too big, and everyone could only take the method of isolating the fire to clean up the surroundings of the Yin'an Palace that caught fire to prevent it from spreading. In addition, there are nobles from the palace gathered at the door, such as Zhu Di's daughters such as Yong'an, the county lord of Yongping, and Zhu Di's third son Zhu Gaosui and so on.

Zhu Gaosui is sixteen years old today, and he is violently reprimanding a middle-aged man in his forties, wearing a blue regular suit, with messy hair and covered in dust, he pointed to the other party's nose and said, "Ge Cheng, have you fucking eaten shit?" The good palace is on fire, and it burns the father's Yin'an Palace, wait for the father to come back, and see if he doesn't pick your skin! ”

Ge Cheng knelt on the ground and begged for mercy again and again: "Little prince, the lower official is guilty, please punish the little prince." ”

"It's useless to punish you," Zhu Gaosui raised a kick, kicked Ge Cheng to the ground, and pulled out his sword: "I'll fucking kill you!" ”

Ge Cheng was so frightened that his soul was not possessed, rolling all over the ground, Zhu Gaosui originally just wanted to scare and scare Ge Cheng, but when he saw him dodging, he was furious, raised his sword and slashed indiscriminately, and the servants next to him hurriedly came up to stop Zhu Gaosui: "The little prince is angry!" The little prince is angry! ”

Seeing this, Zhang Fu also hurriedly stepped forward and stopped Zhu Gaosui: "Little prince, please calm your anger, now that the city is on fire, it is the time to employ people, or Lord Zhun Ge should make meritorious contributions." ”

"Okay, Wen Bi, according to your words," Zhu Gaosui was just reckless, but he was not stupid, when he was stopped by everyone, he knew that he had gone a little too far, and now that there were Zhang Fu's steps, he pretended to change his mind with hatred: "Get out, go and arrange firefighting, if something happens again, you can wipe your neck yourself." ”

Ge Cheng agreed again and again, and left with a salute.

Zhang Fu looked at Ge Cheng's back, sighed, arched his hand towards Zhu Gaosui, quickly caught up with Ge Cheng, and said in a low voice: "Lord Ge, be patient for the time being, just wait for the prince to come back, tonight's incident must have been done by the eagle dog of the imperial court, but it's a pity for the people of Beiping." ”

The muscles on Ge Cheng's face twitched, and he glanced at Zhang Fu with a smile: "Wen Bi, do you think Beiping can still hold it?" ”

"What did you say?" Zhang Fu was shocked, subconsciously glanced around, and held down the sword at the same time, only to find that he had been unconsciously taken by Ge Cheng to the east wing of the palace, and now the people in the palace are either busy fighting the fire, or watching the excitement outside the door, so the wing room is empty.

Zhang Fu said in a low voice: "Master Ge, you are crazy! ”

Ge Cheng smiled slightly, walked to the door, said a few words, then closed the door, then walked to the back room, took out a servant, brought it to Zhang Fu, and said in a deep voice: "Wen Bi, this is Lord Zhang of the imperial court!" ”

"Huh?" Zhang Fu looked fixedly, looked at the other party's featureless face, his brain flashed, and blurted out: "You are Zhang He?" ”

"That's right, General Zhang, it's been a long time, and the Humble Investigation Division is a thousand households Zhang He!"

Zhang Fu stepped back a few steps in shock, and sat on the stool, no wonder the whole city couldn't catch this Zhang He, it turned out that he was hidden in the palace by the head of the palace, even if the whole city was searched, it was impossible for anyone to dare to search the palace. And there are thousands of servants and subordinates in the palace, no one will pay attention to more or one less servant, and more importantly, the people in the palace are not allowed to go out at will, and they are not allowed to spread rumors, and they don't know much about Zhang He's affairs.

Even so, Zhang Fu was still shocked by Ge Cheng's audacity, this was simply crazy, although the most dangerous place was the safest, but there were few people who dared to do this. If he had changed himself, Zhang Fu would not dare to ask himself.

Looking at Zhang Fu's appearance, Ge Cheng and Zhang He looked at each other and smiled, Ge Cheng took a step forward and said in a deep voice: "General Zhang, the lower officials know that your heart is towards the imperial court, now that Beiping is in chaos, the soldiers in the city are under your control, as long as you ascend to the heights and shout, Beiping is at your fingertips, and if Beiping is a while, the rebels outside the city will be in chaos without a fight." ”

"In this way, the first contribution to countering the rebellion must be the general!"

Zhang Fu looked at the two people in front of him, although he was moved, he hesitated, and his face was cloudy. Seeing this scene, Zhang He took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Zhang Fu: "This is a handwritten letter from Lord Wang of the Military Aircraft Department, and I have never had a chance to hand it over to the general, please take a look." ”

Zhang Fu opened the letter, and there were only four big characters in it: Make a decision immediately!

Zhang Fu's body was shocked, he held his forehead and calculated, seeing Zhang Fu close his eyes, Ge Cheng was a little anxious, and was about to urge, but was stopped by Zhang He, he believed that Zhang Fu would make the right choice, the opportunity had been given to him, if he couldn't catch it, then don't blame himself for being ruthless.

After a while, Zhang Fu slowly opened his eyes and stared at the two: "Okay, I'll do it, please ask the two adults to order." ”

"Good!" "Great!"

......

At this time, Sheng Yong under the city was in danger, and the reinforcements of the two large battalions on the left and right had not yet arrived, but his own battalion was kicked open, and 20,000 cavalry rushed in, led by Zhu Gaoxu, the king ------of Gaoyang County, who should have wandered between the rivers and robbed grain. Zhu Gaoxu saw that the fire was on fire in the city, so he couldn't care much about it, and after hurriedly defeating the reinforcements of the left and right battalions, he led the army to kill Sheng Yong's camp.

Sheng Yong urgently ordered Zhuang De to lead the army to encircle and annihilate Zhu Neng, and personally led the rear army to encircle Zhu Gaoxu, Zhu Gaoxu's subordinates were all Mongols, and they liked to rob the camp in this dark light, so the guards arranged by Sheng Yong to guard in the back were quickly defeated and fled in all directions. Zhu Gaoxu didn't care about those stragglers, but raised his knife and fought hard, shouting: "Fight to the death to survive, victory or defeat in one fell swoop!" The Mongols shouted and swarmed up.

Looking at Zhu Gaoxu, who jumped out of the firelight like a fierce god, and the black-pressed cavalry behind him, Sheng Yong was timid in arranging the first line of defense and was quickly defeated, but the Yan army did not stop, but drove straight into the middle army of Sheng Yong.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Sheng Yong immediately ordered Chu Zhi to lead the only 5,000 cavalry to launch a counter-charge to buy time for his entire team.

Chu Zhi received the order to get on the horse, did not flinch, and led 5,000 armor soldiers to launch a decisive charge against the Yan army. The Yan army also fought bravely, Zhu Gaoxu shouted, rushed to the front, and the morale of the Mongolian army was like a rainbow, just like the tip of a needle to Maimang, killing an inseparable.

When Zhu Neng saw the reinforcements coming, he shouted happily: "The prince's reinforcements are coming, the enemy is in a plan, follow the general, kill !!! The morale of the Yan army was shocked, and Zhuang De launched an attack, Zhuang De couldn't attack for a long time, so he took off his helmet suddenly, looked up to the sky and roared: "Kill Yan, in one fell swoop!" The army shouted in unison: "Destroy the Yan!" "Kill Yan!"

When the fierce battle between the two armies under the city was in full swing, the head of Beiping suddenly shouted in unison: "Beiping has been broken, and the rebels will surrender early!" "Beiping has been broken, and the rebels have surrendered early!" "Beiping has been broken, and the rebels have surrendered early!"

What the? The two armies under the city stopped fighting almost at the same time, and looked at the city in unison, and saw that Zhu Di's "Yan" character Wang flag had been cut off and was falling from the city.

Zhu Gaoxu was extremely angry, Zhu Nengru was struck by lightning, Sheng Yong, Zhuang De, Chu Zhi and others were overjoyed, and shouted in unison: "Kill Yan!" The morale of the Yan army immediately plummeted, and they were unable to fight back, and they were unable to form an army. At this moment, the sound of horses' hooves was heard in the south and east, and Xu Huizu and Geng Xuan finally arrived.

The die is cast!
