On the avenue leading to Thang Long City in Haiyang City, a huge Ming army team is slowly moving forward, in front of 50,000 cavalry, banners like a forest, majestic and majestic, behind is 50,000 infantry, the lineup is neat, the momentum is like a rainbow, in the middle of thousands of brocade guards under the protection of layers of guards, a huge dragon chariot carried by thirty-two people looms, it is the emperor Chongzheng of the Ming Dynasty to drive in person!

At this moment, Zhu Cijiong was sitting on the dragon chariot with a pale face, and there was no joy after the victory at all.

Thang Long City was taken, but the Tianxiong army was almost disabled, a total of 10,000 artillery, casualties, a total of 40,000 infantry, casualties, a total of 50,000 cavalry, casualties of tens of thousands, this is the first class army of the Ming Dynasty, the elite of the elite, attacking a small Thang Long City was beaten so miserably, according to the development of this situation, if you want to take the entire South Seas, wouldn't all the legions of the Ming Dynasty be disabled!

He is not the anger of the main general Lu Xiangsheng, Lu Xiangsheng has done his best, personally led the army to attack the city, took the lead, fought for nearly two hours, and finally was seriously injured and fell into a coma, what else is there to say about such a general, he is angry with himself, angry with the Dutch, angry with Annan Zheng.

If he sent an army of 400,000 to besiege him on all sides, how many casualties could the Annan army in Thang Long City inflict on the Ming army, no matter how powerful it was.

It was the Dutch who were too insidious and provided so many muskets and artillery to Annan that the Ming could not give full play to their superiority in weapons and was caught off guard.

There is also Annan Zheng's family, I heard that the reason why the Annan army is so desperate is that they are forced by them, it is that they sent a team to supervise the battle, not only to kill the deserters, but also to threaten to kill the deserters' whole family, so majestic, so evil!

Just as he gritted his teeth and thought about how to retaliate, there were about a thousand elite horsemen in front of the team slowly approaching, looking at the flag, it should be Cao Wenzhao, the main general of the Guanning Army, who came to greet him.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for the Guan Ning army commander to come to the left side of Long Yuan by beating his horse through the heavy guards of the Jinyi Guard, bowing and saluting: "Weichen is late to take over, please forgive the emperor." “

Zhu Cijiong waved his hand and said: "No courtesy, I just asked you to come to ask, not to let you come to escort you, there is no delay, how is Jiandou now?" “

Cao Wenzhao accompanied him while beating the horse, and replied: "If you go back to the emperor, Lord Lu is fine, the bullets on his body have been taken out, and there is no major problem, but his movement is a little inconvenient." “

Bullet? Zhu Cijiong only knew that Lu Xiangsheng was seriously injured, and he really didn't know how he was injured, so he was curious: "Didn't I have someone create a pair of steel armor for him, didn't he wear it?" “

Cao Wenzhao reported truthfully: "Lord Lu wore it, but he was hit by some bullets in his arms and legs, but he didn't hurt the vital point. “

Zhu Cijiong asked, "Some?" How much are some? “

Cao Wenzhao replied with some shame: "The emperor forgives the sin, it was too hurried at the time, and Weichen didn't let people count carefully, about more than 20 rounds." “

When Zhu Cijiong heard this, he couldn't help but take a breath, with more than 20 bullets in his body, he could still fight bravely to kill the enemy, this Lu Xiangsheng was really not ordinarily fierce!

At this time, Thang Long City was still in sight, Zhu Cijiong was not in a hurry to enter the city, he turned his head and asked, "Are all the fallen soldiers buried?" “

Cao Wenzhao replied respectfully: "Back to the emperor, Weichen is arranging for people to converge and check names, and it will be buried tomorrow at the earliest." “

Zhu Cijiong nodded and sighed, "Take me to have a look." “

The army began to turn to the east of the city and came to the original camp of the Tianxiong army, at this time all the tents had been put away, and the corpses of the Ming soldiers were neatly lined up on the ground.

Zhu Cijiong looked at the fallen soldiers all over the ground, his face became more and more gloomy, and the desire for revenge became stronger and stronger, at this time, he happened to see an altar in the front, many Ming soldiers spontaneously came to pay tribute to their comrades, incense and candles were almost inserted into the offering table, and paper money was almost scattered all over the ground.

He got off the dragon chariot and slowly walked towards the offering table, and the accompanying brocade guards hurriedly turned over and dismounted, lined up on a wall, and isolated the soldiers who came to pay tribute, and the soldiers present knew that it was the emperor who came in person, and the soldiers along the way suddenly knelt down one by one, Zhu Cijiong came to the offering table with a gloomy face, took out a handful of incense, and lit the candle slowly.

Cao Wenzhao hurriedly bowed forward and persuaded: "Your Majesty, you can't help it, they can't afford it." “

Zhu Cijiong waved his hand and said coldly: "The dead are great, what can not be afforded." “

After that, he raised the good incense, bowed respectfully three times, and then inserted the incense into the stove of the offering table, and then he picked up a handful of white paper money and sprinkled it into the sky, and said loudly: "Daming warrior, go all the way." “

The soldiers of the Ming army, who were kneeling around, hurriedly returned the salute for the fallen soldiers: "Thank you to the emperor, long live my emperor, long live long live." “

Zhu Cijiong raised his hand to suppress it, stopped the growing mountain cry, and turned to Cao Huachun and said: "Spread my will, the salary of the soldiers of the Tianxiong Army will be doubled, and the pension of the fallen soldiers will be doubled, and the military department will sort out the list of the families of the fallen soldiers and hand them over, and all the businesses of the royal family must be hired as appropriate." “

When Cao Huachun heard this, he nodded solemnly, indicating that he remembered that on this occasion, he really couldn't write the holy decree, so he had to wait until he entered the city to write it.

Zhu Cijiong said to Cao Wenzhao again: "Where is Jiandou now? “

Cao Wenzhao immediately replied: "Lord Lu is recuperating from his injuries in the city. “

Zhu Cijiong nodded, turned around and returned to the dragon chariot, and then gave the order, drove into the city, and went to see Lu Xiangsheng.

Seeing Lu Xiangsheng who was wrapped like a zongzi, Zhu Cijiong's face became more and more gloomy, he patiently comforted Lu Xiangsheng a few words, then turned around and walked out, he felt a wave of anger burning in his heart, no matter how he pressed it, he couldn't suppress it, just at this time Cao Wenzhao came up again to report: "Your Majesty, the Li Shenzong of the Li Dynasty after Annan has been found, do you want to see the emperor?" “

Zhu Cijiong said coldly: "This is not in a hurry, what about the people of the Zheng clan in Annan?" “

Cao Wenzhao replied cautiously: "The more than ten officials under Zheng Jie, the head of the Zheng clan in Annan, have all been arrested, do you want to bring them over?" “

Zhu Cijiong said coldly: "Why did you bring it here, I don't want to see this kind of rebellious ministers and thieves who collude with foreign countries to commit rebellion, so I dragged them all to the east of the city and cut them down to pay tribute to the Ming soldiers." “

Cao Wenzhao hurriedly replied: "Weichen obeys the order." “

After saying that, he was about to retire, but Zhu Cijiong's eyes flashed, as if he had thought of something.

He raised his hand and said, "Wait." “

Cao Wenzhao hurriedly stopped and bowed and said, "What else does the emperor have to order?" “

At this time, Zhu Cijiong's face was already full of anger, and he gritted his teeth and said: "You go, lead the army to surround all the mansions of all the Zheng clans in the city, and all the Zheng clans will be arrested, dragged to the east of the city and cut down by me, I will punish him for the nine clans!" “
