Chen Luyao took his henchmen Ma Jin and Zhang Dalei, and a group of more than ten people took a shortcut, quickly stepped up, crossed the Yangtze River before dawn and entered the city of Nanjing, and then under the leadership of Wei Guangdong, the commander of Ying Tianwei, he met with Ruan Dacheng, the squire of the military department.

"Report to Ruan Shilang, Lin Zhenjiang set off last night after receiving the holy decree, came to the capital to offer the ironclad car, and ordered the villain to meet him at the north gate."

Chen Luyao gave respectful salutes and informed Ruan Dacheng of the good news.

Ruan Dacheng was overjoyed and clapped his hands: "Great, this is really great news, I will inform Ma Ge to get old!" ”

Chen Luyao laughed: "The villain is willing to serve Ma Ge Lao and Ruan Shilang, and he will never give up!" ”

Ruan Dacheng had no beard, pinched his chin with his slender fingers, and said, "Chen Qianhu did a good job, this official and Ma Ge Lao will never treat you badly." You continue to serve in Yangzhou, and report every move of Shi Kefa and Lin Zhenjiang at any time. ”

After a pause, he said, "How fast is this ironclad car?" When can I arrive in Beijing? ”

"Lin Zhenjiang walked half an hour earlier than the villain, and the speed of this ironclad car is much faster than riding a horse, so it stands to reason that he should have arrived at the Yangtze River long ago." Chen Luyao also looked puzzled.

Ruan Dacheng instructed Wei Guangdong: "Prepare a big ship immediately, and when the ironclad car arrives at the river, it will be transported to Jiangnan immediately, so as not to make Lin Zhenjiang change his mind and regret it." ”

Wei Guangdong received the order to return to the camp, and sent two thousand households to lead his subordinates to cross the river by boat to the north of the river to find Lin Yu, and he mobilized several large ships to wait at Wumadu on the north bank of the Yangtze River.

After leaving Gujiazhuang and walking south for sixty or seventy miles, Lin Yu and his party came to the bank of the Yangtze River.

Lin Yu drove the tank to Taoyedu first, and screamed in fright at the merchant travelers and ships, and couldn't figure out where this behemoth came from?

Lin Yu had no choice but to let Li Wei stand on top of the tank and shout with a loudspeaker: "Don't panic, folks, this is the ironclad car that broke the Jiannu, and it was driven by Lin Zhenjiang's general soldiers to face the saint!" ”

The panic of the people dissipated, and they all pointed to the huge and mighty Merkava tank and discussed, "It turns out that this is the ironclad car of the Great Broken Tartar, it is really daunting!" ”

"I heard that the person who drove the ironclad car to defeat Jiannu is named Lin Zhenjiang, and he is the nephew and son-in-law of the Shi Pavilion Department, and he can be regarded as a hero if he can make such a great achievement!"

Lin Yu quietly clicked on the screen in the palm of his left hand to check, and saw that the gold coins he owned were growing rapidly, and more than a dozen were entered into the account every second, and after walking five or six miles east along the Yangtze River, there were nearly 10,000 more gold coins on the account.

The villages on both sides of the Yangtze River are densely packed, and in addition to the merchants and travelers who come and go at the ferry, the people living in the nearby villages and towns have also taken to the streets to see the style of the ironclad chariot, and they are all shocked.

Lin Yu was worried about how to cross the Yangtze River, and a thousand households with soldiers greeted him, and he made his intentions clear from afar: "The one in the ironclad car is Lin Zhenjiang's general soldier, and he came to meet you to cross the river under the order of the Wei commander." ”

Lin Yu stopped the tank, got out of the car and greeted the other party: "Dare to ask how Commander Wei learned that this official was offering a car today?" ”

"It was Chen Qianhu who informed the Wei commander."

The Qianhu replied respectfully, "At this moment, Chen Qianhu is waiting for the general with the Wei Commander in Wumadu. ”

"Chen Luyao really colluded with Nanjing, it seems that the whistleblower is this person nine times out of ten!"

Lin Yu muttered to himself in his heart, ordered the front to lead the way, turned around and got into the tank and then tailed.

Taoye Ferry is a civilian ferry, specially for business and ordinary people to come and go, and Wumadu is a military ferry, there is a naval army under the jurisdiction of Ying Tianwei stationed here on weekdays, and there is a dock for mooring warships on the riverside.

At this moment, the flag was waving on the shore, and Wei Guangdong, with his subordinates, his colleagues, and Chen Luyao, were waiting and watching.

"It's coming, it's coming!"

Chen Luyao's eyes were sharp, and he saw the huge chariot coming from a distance, and immediately shouted flatteringly.

Wei Guangdong raised his eyes and looked into the distance, and when he saw the face of Lushan in this ironclad car, he couldn't help but gasp: "Hiss...... It is really a divine weapon, with the help of such a behemoth, it is no wonder that Lin Zhenjiang was able to repel the Tartars and make a shocking achievement! ”

Chen Luyao echoed angrily: "That's not the case, he Lin Zhenjiang is just lucky!" Got Taizu to dream, found the ironclad chariot, defeated the Tartars, and was promoted from the deputy garrison of the sixth grade to the fifth level, and became the general soldier of Guangling of the fourth grade, which is simply shit luck! ”

Next to him, a thirty-five or sixteen-year-old military attaché, eight feet tall, with a Chinese face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a short beard, snorted coldly: "Chen Qianhu's words are unfair, if you give you the ironclad car, will you control it?" Are you sure you can fight off a hundred thousand Tartars on your own? ”

Chen Luyao turned his head to look and found that the person who spoke was Ying Tianwei's commander and acquaintance Xu Gongji, knowing that he couldn't afford to offend, he hurriedly laughed and said: "General Xu's lesson is that General Lin still has merit, how dare he compare with his humble position." ”

"Xu Tongzhi, why should he have the ambition of a son-in-law and extinguish our prestige?"

As soon as Xu Gongji's voice fell, Zhu Youliang, the young and vigorous commander next to him and wearing armor, quit, and stood up and sneered: "I think what Chen Qianhu said is right, he Lin Zhenjiang just took shit luck!" It's just a son-in-law of the Jiang family, what ability does he have to defeat the Tartar? It is not because of the dream of our ancestors that we have made this earth-shattering achievement! ”

Chen Luyao turned his head to look and found that it was Ying Tianwei who commanded Zhu Youliang, who was also a master he couldn't provoke.

The Emperor of the Apocalypse is called Zhu Youxiao, the Chongzhen Emperor is called Zhu Youzhen, and the current Hongguang Emperor is called Zhu Youxiang, and his name is Zhu Youliang, so there is no doubt that he is a relative of the royal family.

Zhu Yuanzhang was a good ancestor, he endured a lot of hardships when he was a child, and later became an emperor determined to take good care of his children and grandchildren and no longer let them suffer.

Zhu Yuanzhang stipulated that the sons born to him were all princes, and the eldest son born to the prince inherited the title of prince, and the other sons were named county kings.

The eldest son born to the king of the county succeeded to the king of the county, and the other sons were canonized as the general of the town state. The eldest son of General Zhenguo inherited the title of General Zhenguo, and the others were canonized as auxiliary generals.

Auxiliary generals and so on, there are also Fengguo generals, Zhenguo lieutenants, auxiliary lieutenants, all the way to the lowest rank of auxiliary lieutenants, and then they will not be reduced. All the sons of the lieutenant of the auxiliary state can inherit this title and enjoy the benefits of the imperial court.

This is better for the royal family than the Han Dynasty's Tui'en Order, no matter how bad it is, it can be mixed with an auxiliary lieutenant and raised by the imperial court, if Liu Bei was born in the Ming Dynasty, it will not be mixed to the point of weaving mats and selling shoes.

Of course, Zhu Yuanzhang's original intention was good, in order to prevent his descendants from suffering, but later it became one of the important reasons for the demise of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Yuanzhang felt that he only had twenty-five or six sons, and the Ming Dynasty could afford to raise them, but he did not expect that after his death, after more than 200 years of development, in the Wanli period, the descendants would develop to a million dollars.

At the beginning, the treatment of the Daming clan was quite good, even the lowest-ranking auxiliary lieutenant had an annual salary of 200 stone of grain, and you must know that the annual salary of a seven-rank county order was only 170 stones.

But by the time of the Jiajing period, the descendants of the Zhu family had multiplied explosively, and the number of clans had reached more than 100,000 people, and Yulu alone accounted for a quarter of the national treasury.

In the Wanli period, the Ming Dynasty was worried about internal and external troubles, and the Mingshen Sect saw that it could not afford to raise so many "Zhu", so it greatly reduced the income of these clans, and stipulated that the auxiliary generals and below would no longer enjoy the imperial court, so you should die for yourself!

Due to Zhu Di's usurpation, the emperor who succeeded to the throne later was very wary of the vassal king, stipulating that the clan could not engage in "Shinong industry and commerce", and could only obediently be the local lord and enjoy the benefits of the imperial court.

Wanli is so tossed, the royal clan relatives who can't engage in Shinong industry and commerce are miserable, those who have land and money are better, and those who have no land and no money can only live on the streets, eat and wait for death, and have a royal title.

Mingshenzong saw that this was not good, so he simply turned a blind eye, and the auxiliary generals and below did whatever they liked, as long as you didn't rebel and didn't ask for money from the imperial court, so later there were descendants of the clan who joined the army.

Zhu Youliang is the twelfth descendant of Zhu Yuanzhang, and the same generation of Zhu Youzhen who hanged himself in the coal mountain.

However, because Zhu Youliang has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, he is brave and good at fighting, and he climbed the big tree of the first assistant Ma Shiying, so he was promoted and appointed as the commander of Ying Tianwei, and Wei Guangdong and Xu Gongji are known as the "Nanjing Three Tiger Generals", and they are jointly responsible for Gongwei Jingshi.

Although there are already many "lieutenants in Fengguo", there are not many people who climb to the fourth rank as a royal clansman, so Zhu Youliang thinks very highly of himself on weekdays, and there is no one in his eyes, and he has long been famous in Ying Tianwei.
