"Then watch hundreds of thousands of Chaozhou soldiers and civilians fall to death and ignore it? Lord Zhang, please, save the military and civilians of Chaozhou! ”

The three ragged soldiers shed tears, forgetting their lives and going through hardships to come to Guangzhou for help, which was also a helpless move, and they all knew in their hearts that the chances of Guangzhou sending troops were very slim. Zhang Hongfan besieged Chaozhou with more than 100,000 heavy troops, and was not in a hurry to break through the city, just waiting for Guangzhou to send troops to support, even a spoonful of stew with food and drink.

"The Yuan army is a large number of generals, to say that sending troops and fighting in the field with Yuan soldiers is tantamount to throwing ourselves into a net and killing a dead end, we can only stick to the city at present, it is impossible to send troops." Wang Daofu, who had not spoken on the side, directly denied the statement of sending troops and made a round for Zhang Zhensun.

Zhao Tianyou said: "According to the current situation, Zhang Hongfan has been staying in Meizhou for a long time, and he has been casting cannons, and Chaozhou City is his first stop to test artillery. ”

"So what to do? There are more than 100,000 people in the city! ”

No one can answer this question, which is as strong as Hong Kong Island's current strength, and it is impossible to dispatch a firearms battalion to fight a field battle, especially if it takes the initiative to attack an enemy who is more than ten times its own, which is tantamount to killing oneself by hitting an egg with a stone.

Able to defeat Li Heng and Lu Shikui's army, the unexpected appearance of the Hongyi cannon played half of the role, just like that, the Hongyi cannon thundered the new firearms of the thunder to participate in the battle, and also let the Yuan soldiers attack the city wall for a short time, it is conceivable that if there were no these cannon firearms, the city of Guangzhou would have been planted with the banner of the Yuan soldiers.

"In this way, we will send a team of cavalry scouts to investigate the dynamics in the direction of Chaozhou as soon as possible, and we must quickly return the news if we encounter the enemy. Take the opportunity to contact the township soldiers and militia groups in various parts of Panyu, and if Zhang Hongfan's army attacks, persuade them not to be defeated and withdraw to Guangzhou as soon as possible. ”

Zhang Zhensun's method was also helpless, the enemy army pressed the border, and there was nothing to be done about Chaozhou seeing that the city was about to be broken, so he could only send more scouts to ensure the smooth transmission of military information.

All the civil and military officials were ordered to retreat, and in the hall of Nuoda, only Zhang Zhensun and Zhao Tianyou remained.

"General Zhao, let's eat some game here in the evening, today they have sent a deer and a few pheasants, the kitchen is being cleaned up, and the officials are invited to come and have a few drinks together in the evening." I also invited Jiang Maotong, hoping that they could read my kindness and take this opportunity to uncover this festival. ”

Zhao Tianyou laughed, shook his head and said, "Lord Zhang, don't you know what he wants?" It is basically impossible to resolve the conflict with just one meal. In fact, I also hope that you can unite with the outside world, and soon the Yuan soldiers will come again, if the contradictions in the city cannot be resolved, it is easy to have bigger problems, Lord Zhang, you should be cautious. ”

Zhang Zhensun nodded, got up and poured tea and water for Zhao Tianyou.

Zhao Tianyou was uncertain, still thinking about the affairs of the Danyang Taoist, the two of them drank tea in a muffled voice, and after a while, Zhao Tianyou got up to say goodbye, and made an appointment for the evening banquet to go directly to Zhang's mansion for the banquet.

Jiang Maotong sat on the chair with red eyes, Qian Kang shook a folding fan in the cold, and kept walking around the hall, the expression on Jiang Maotong's face became more and more hideous.

"Brother-in-law, send the old cat to ambush him at night, cut his neck directly while he was drunk, go to his mother's Zhang Zhensun, and deliberately humiliate us like a dog!"

Qian Kang snorted and said, "Kill him and it's over?" There are so many officials in Guangzhou, and we have so many soldiers and horses, how can we suppress them! The military power is not in his hands, and killing him will only bring him to power with a more difficult official, so it is better to let this nerd sit. ”

"Our dignified minister was humiliated by them like this, how can you swallow this breath, how can Master Zhang's entrustment be completed? That teahouse was deliberately designed by them, and the woman in red was also in a group, all arranged by Zhang Zhensun in order to humiliate us, hehe, don't let the uncle have to find a chance, let me kill you. ”

Jiang Maotong was stimulated today, and was held hostage by the patrolling soldiers for a time, sweeping away the prestige when he first came, and even his prestige in the forbidden army was a little swept away, how could his heart not be full of hatred.

After Qian Kang turned around dozens of times, he stopped, turned around and went to the back room to take out a package, and took out a blank holy decree that was not stamped with a large seal.

"Boy, you see that your brother-in-law has prepared properly, and we will ...... with this Hey, hey, hey! Qian Kang laughed for a long time, but he overestimated his brother-in-law's IQ, and looked at the holy decree and stared at him for a long time without understanding, which really gave him a headache.

"Brother-in-law, there's nothing written on this!"

Qian Kang said with a straight face: "I don't know how to write, I directly appointed you as the Yin of Xianglong Mansion and the GD system to replace Zhang Zhensun, what do you think?" “

"Oh, brother-in-law, this official is not small, but I'm afraid that I won't be able to do it well, and Zhang Zhensun won't do it, there is no jade seal on our holy decree, it will be recognized as fake!"

"You're a wreck, are you scared if you give you a first-class official? Look at the scared you, didn't you say that you were going to kill Zhang Zhensun, tonight he invited us to drink, you brought the old cat in, and ordered him to take Zhang Zhensun's head tonight.

I will get the holy decree in a while, and wait for the news of Zhang Zhensun's death tomorrow, I will lead people to beat the drum and ascend to the church, gather the officials in the city to ascend to the church, and read the holy decree in public. ”

"Brother-in-law, you let me think about it, this matter, this matter is a bit big, I'm afraid I won't be able to bear it."

"****** waste, if you don't resist us, you will have to be played to death by them, when Zhang Shijie and Zhang Daren's army arrives, we have not completed the task, it is also a dead end, you can think about it for me!"

In the hall of Zhang Zhensun's mansion, seven or eight servants and attendants were busy with their busy work, adding tableware and cold dishes on six large round tables, and on the huge charcoal stove in the middle, a whole wild deer had been roasted with the aroma of golden meat.

Today, Zhang Zhensun invited officials of all sizes in Guangzhou, plus Jiang Maotong and Qian Kang and his party, saying that it was to celebrate Zhang Zhensun's early recovery from a long illness, and also to make up for the reception banquet for Jiang Maotong. With the successive officials seated, the atmosphere in the venue slowly became lively, and the charcoal fire in the atrium was raging, and the entire spacious lobby was warm.

Jiang Maotong took Qian Kang to the table, accompanied by two captains in the forbidden army, and the entourage guards who came together, and were arranged to have another banquet in the side courtyard. The six forbidden soldiers entered the side courtyard, found a corner and went to a small table, sat down to eat silently, and the short man with small eyes and black face in the middle quietly left after eating for a while.

When Zhao Tianyou arrived at Zhang's Mansion, the banquet had officially begun, regardless of the civil and military generals, they were very open today, and you toasted each other back and forth. He waved his hand to signal a few familiar officials not to greet him, and chose a large table near the edge to sit down, right in front of Jiang Maotong and Qian Kang's table.

"Brother-in-law, the old cat has been brought in, if you want to say that he can't fight hard, if you want to say that he is a yin person, he hasn't missed it yet!"

Jiang Maotong looked at Zhang Zhensun on the main seat, his eyes flickering a little.
