Born on the Loess Plateau, Liu Zongmin also has the stubbornness of a Loess Plateau man, in this life, the army is fighting with the Ming Dynasty bloodily, so even if he is at the end of the road, he will once again kill the capital of the Ming Dynasty, so that the Ming Emperor can see the blood and courage from the peasant army.

He is also the most difficult road to walk, bypassing Poyang Lake, all the way to capture Chizhou and Taiping, forcibly crossing several big rivers, it is simply a split of blood, continuous vicious battles can be killed, so he was the first to launch a forbidden army to Nanjing, but it was the second to arrive, and it was only a day away from the third Mao Jue's troops.

But history is so cruel, although he is the most courageous one, but it is still too late, and the price of this late is probably permanently insulated from victory!

Zhang Pu was not as arrogant as Lu Daqi and Gao Hongtu, his 90,000 or so troops were completely shrunk behind the strong Nanjing city defense, relying on the city wall for defense, and on the solid masonry battlements, a musket from the Dutch support poked out gloomily, and a cannon was aimed at it.

But these are not the most discouraged, on the city wall, a newly embroidered black Maozi banner fluttered violently with the wind blowing from the nearby Yangtze River, and the fiery red Mingzi flag was also replaced by the Xuanhei Ming Banner from the north.

After looking around twice with the binoculars, Liu Zongmin was like a trapped beast and a bull, and with a loud sound, he smashed the telescope in his hand to the ground and smashed it.

…………

A few years ago, when Mao Jue's army was about to cross the river, Zhang Pu, who was a scholar, even organized a rural guerrilla force, intending to fight Mao Jue to the death, but now, the sea is up and down, and after several wanderings, not only Zhang Pu is no longer the radical leader of the Restoration Society, Jiangnan is not the Jiangnan it used to be.

According to their political attitude, it is impossible to cling to the Fushe and fight to the death with the enemy from the north, in terms of strength, Zhang Pu also has no strength to defend Nanjing, and at the same time deal with the blows of the two families, so between destruction and surrender, the high-spirited leader of the Fushe chose the latter.

However, Liu Zongmin was shocked a little early, just when the city of Nanjing was full of banners of the Northern Ming Dynasty, in fact, Zhang Pu was still in Mao Jue's camp, talking about surrender.

After fighting for so many years, Mao Jue is the first time to lose his temper like this, such a light army is adventurous, even if he is sitting on the dragon chair of the Chinese army's big tent, his eyes still seem to be mixed with a scarlet, and the gloomy gaze is like a mountain, and Zhang Pu can't raise his head.

For the first time, he felt what it meant to be a king.

But Mao Jue, who was fierce and frightened Zhang Pu, was full of remorse at this time, and he was also a step too late!

"So, Gao Hongtu, Qian Qianyi, Lu Daqi, and Jiang Yueguang are all dead!"

Full of murderous intentions, he personally rushed straight to Ying Tianfu, just to use the sword in his hand to release his anger in person, but when he arrived, all these people who made him angry had already been splashed with blood on the execution ground and died, and a target for his revenge did not exist, and the feeling was like a powerful fist, but it was smashed on cotton, which made Mao Jue uncomfortable and wanted to vomit blood.

Holding back the trembling and not kneeling down, Zhang Pu's voice was still trembling, and he replied tremblingly.

"Back to Your Majesty, the money thief, the Lu thief and others committed suicide in fear of crime, and the high thief, Zhang thief and others have also been awarded the head by the law, and their first subordinate has been brought here and dedicated to Your Majesty."

When people are dead, what's the use of heads? Quite excited, Mao Jue suddenly became weak, Mao Jue lay on the dragon chair, but waved his hand boringly.

"Find a place to bury it!"

"Your Majesty is merciful, and we admire you! My subordinates are here to surrender to Your Majesty on behalf of His Royal Highness King Fu, and my Lord is willing to take the initiative to go to the emperor and join His Majesty's command......"

"You don't have the right to negotiate terms with me!"

Before Zhang Pu's words could be finished, he was suddenly interrupted by Mao Jue, raised his head in shock, and a pair of scarlet eyes poured into his eyes with murderous aura.

"Go back and open the gates of Yingtian City, welcome my army into the city, and leave your fate to me to decide, otherwise, I will kill you completely!" There are many schools in my empire, and the most important thing is to rap scholars!"

Now and the early years of the Ming Dynasty is completely different, Zhu Yuanzhang's era, culture is in the hands of the Confucian family canonized under the rule of the Yuan Dynasty, in charge of the Qian Valley needs to be literate, the governance of the place needs to be proficient in literature and ink, and the prison literacy also needs to be knowledgeable, so in order to seize the world, Zhu Yuanzhang must cooperate with these landlord classes, dress himself up as a thirsty appearance, and the entire Ming Dynasty except for the Hongwu period, almost all of the emperor controlled the world, but the family monopolized the cultural model.

But now, Jiangnan is not the Jiangnan of a few years ago, thanks to the infighting of the Donglin Restoration Society, the Jiangnan family has been hit hard by cannibalism, in response to Uncle Li's words, people's hearts are scattered, the team is not easy to bring, the snake's head has been cut to more than half, as long as Mao Jue does not do anything to shave his hair and is not comfortable, those small and medium-sized landlord families no longer have the strength to bewitch the farmers under their hands to find trouble for Mao Jue.

As long as Mao Jue chokes the import and export channels of several ports in Hangzhou and Quanzhou, and threatens to ask him for Zhang Pu's head, Zhang Pu believes that there is no need for this Northern Emperor to mobilize troops, or it won't be long before the impoverished Southern Merchants will chop off their heads and send them to Mao Jue.

The businessman is unrighteous and usually called so contemptuous, but at this time it has become a naked reality.

The breath was completely relaxed, and he couldn't raise his head because of Mao Jue's aggressive breath, and Zhang Pu finally threw himself on his knees at once.

"Your subordinates obey!"

When he walked out of the Chinese army, Zhang Puzhi felt that his back was already soaked, and he was depressed, he didn't know what kind of camp he had left in Molingguan in Beiming, until again, when the green city bricks of Nanjing City came into view, he came back to his senses, full of bitterness, and shook his head helplessly.

"Prime Minister for a day!"

…………

At the end of September, in Liu Zongmin's hesitation, the sixth corps of the Jingshi Suwei Corps was the first to enter Yingtian City, followed by Mao Jue's follow-up army also successively drove to Moling Pass, and entered Yingtian City, October 15, Liu Chong, who pounced in Nanchang City, also rushed up with his cavalry in a hurry, and on the other hand, walked more than a month by sea. The 1st and 2nd Corps of the Lushun Army of the Northern Group Army also completed the landing in Hangzhou Bay, and the northern army that had successively gathered in the south of the Yangtze River had reached 26 corps and 200,000 troops.

On October 18, in front of Liu Junchao, who was afraid of being beaten in the Battle of Shanhaiguan, the emperor's first Praetorian Guard composed of 8,000 people escorted Mao Jue, who came from the northwest and swaggered to the north gate of Yingtian.

The only time in history to unify the north from the south is the Northern Expedition of Zhu Yuanzhang, the Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, but unfortunately the history here is not repeated, there has already been a Ming army into the city to respond, creaking wood rubbing, the gate of the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties to the northern army under Mao Jue roared open, and then, a large group of people dressed in linen clothes, cloaked in lost souls to greet out.

Walking in the front is Zhu Yousong, three days ago, he was still Hongguang Emperor Zhu Yousong, a day ago, he was still the blessed king Zhu Yousong, now he is nothing, just a Zhu Yousong, dragging a fat body, kneeling heavily on the loess that was paved last night, but it was no longer paved for him, grinning with sharp slag, sweating on the head, this lucky fat man kowtowed his head with great anxiety.

"Long live the sinners to see the emperor, long live!"

A few years ago, I have been thinking about this turquoise land where the tiger is dominating the dragon, but at this time, looking at this group of guys with their butts facing the ground and their heads facing the sky, Mao Jue has a feeling of being in his heart, although he has everything he wants, but it is through a series of accidents, not the brilliant and fierce battles he imagined, and the bloody struggle was captured, which was somewhat lacking in meaning.

In private, he also folded Luo Ning, but he didn't even have this chance to take revenge!

Some couldn't arouse interest, Mao Jue bowed his hand happily, didn't say a word, and rode directly around the group of ministers who died on horseback, kneeling on the ground, obviously not used to this identity, Zhu Yousong was still a little stunned and stunned there, but Zhang Pu had already stood up in a hurry, and followed Mao Jue's horse with everyone from the Fuhui Society.

Zhu Yousong's story has come to an end, but they haven't yet! Without the noble status in the Southern Dynasty, in the New Dynasty, a group of official fans still expect to have a good future!

This time, the people who followed Mao Jue were a little special, the big shopkeeper of the five southeastern countries, the new imperial concubine Luo Yu, Jiangnan Jiangping, in the next stage, the five central and southern countries will become the main game arena of the Ming Dynasty, so it is necessary to emphasize her identity here and release this special political signal to all forces.

Since the special wedding in Xiangyang, she has been rushing back, and she happened to participate in this special ceremony to enter the city, but like her strange husband, Luo Yu is also a little absent-minded, and she still remembers Zhongnan.

Just walked into the city like this, just walked through a cluster of castles, entered the outer city of Nanjing, on both sides of the road, under the guard of the Praetorian Guards, a figure kneeling on the ground in the farthest place met her eyes coldly, in a moment, Luo Yu suddenly came back to his senses, but in his cunning pupils, there was a ruthlessness.

"Your Majesty!"

"Oh?"

"He's not dead yet!!"
