The third day of the third month of the twenty-fifth year of Jiajing. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Chen Di, the governor of Zhejiang, went out of Beijing and went south to the southeast to fight against the Japanese.

Jin Yiwei commanded Lu Bing and 100 capable horsemen from Nanzhen Fusi to accompany the boat.

The Cao Gang's fleet traveled day and night, and finally arrived in Suzhou on March 15.

As soon as he arrived in Suzhou, Chen Di immediately took Lu Bing and Hai Rui to the Flying Tiger Army station.

Zhu Houjun, the commander of the Flying Tiger Army, Zhao Zigao, the commander of Tongzhi, and Qian Qiyun, the commander of the servant, led a thousand remnants of the Flying Tiger Army to meet Chen Di.

As soon as he entered the camp of the Flying Tiger Army, Chen Di had a gloomy face. More than 1,000 remnants of the Flying Tiger Army were demoralized, and the soldiers had no previous spirit at all. All the soldiers were armed with red tassel spears and waist knives.

Chen Di ordered the account to be raised.

Zhu Houjun, the commander of the Flying Tiger Army, said: "Chen Butang, please come to the big tent of the Chinese army!" ”

Chen Di said coldly: "This time the account is raised, a thousand soldiers of the Flying Tiger Army and all the generals must be present!" I'm afraid that there are more than 1,000 people standing in the big tent of the Chinese army, so I will choose the school field when I look at the place of discussion! ”

Zhu Houjun snorted coldly: "This general has led the troops for many years, and I have never heard of a promotion in the school field!" ”

Zhu Houjun is a close relative of Emperor Jiajing, and when it comes to seniority, Chen Di, a concubine, still has to call him "uncle". Even if he, a relative of the imperial family, lost the battle, his attitude was still very arrogant.

Chen Di said: "The headquarters will say it again, all the soldiers will go to the school and discuss the account!" ”

Zhu Houjun glared at Chen Di: "Since Chen Butang insists on doing so, the officers and soldiers of the Flying Tiger Army can only obey their orders." ”

After the remnants of the 1,000 Flying Tigers lined up in the school field, Chen Di asked loudly: "The veterans who participated in the battle of Haichenggang and the battle of Beipo Town stand up!" ”

More than two hundred Flying Tiger veterans obeyed the order and stepped forward to stand up.

Chen Di is distressed! The Flying Tiger Army, which was built with Tang Shunzhi, Yu Dayou, and Qi Jiguang, defeated the Japanese twice in Haicheng Port and Beipo Town. Up to now, of the 3,000 veterans who participated in the two wars, only 200 remain!

An army with low morale cannot be expected to win more with less, and turn defeat into victory.

Chen Di ordered loudly: "All veterans, sing me the military song of the Flying Tiger Army!" ”

Zhu Houjun said: "Chen Butang, the army of the Ming Dynasty is not a Kunqu opera team!" The general has ordered that the Flying Tiger Army is forbidden to sing any military songs。。。。。 ”

Chen Diqi's face turned blue! Zhu Houjun, a pig, has so many words after losing the battle. He shouted: "Commander Lu, please give the Longquan Sword given by the emperor!" ”

When Lu Bing heard this, he asked a Nanzhen Fu Si Tiqi to hold the Longquan Sword high and stand beside Chen Di.

The Longquan sword of the Ming Dynasty was the emperor's royal thing. The emperor gave the Longquan Sword to the minister to hold it on his behalf, and the minister was the Heavenly Patrol! Seeing Chen Di show off the Longquan Sword, Zhu Houjun finally shut his mouth.

Chen Di ordered loudly again: "Two hundred veterans, sing the military song of the Flying Tiger Army!" ”

"Daming, restore my rivers and mountains.

Blood will not be shed, death will not be truce!

There is a Ming Dynasty in the east, such as the sun rising!

Ten years of national hatred, the sea is difficult to peace!

The world is in turmoil, how can Corning!

There are sharp warriors, who competes! ”

More than 200 veterans of the Flying Tiger Army shed tears while singing the military song of the Flying Tiger Army! At the beginning, the Flying Tiger Army repeatedly defeated the Japanese Invaders, how proud were these soldiers? But now, under the leadership of Zhu Houjun, the straw bag emperor, almost all the troops were wiped out by the Japanese invaders, and the veterans were all on fire in their hearts!

Chen Di asked: "Zhu Houjun, let me ask you, what about the Flying Tiger Army's guns and those Furlong fast guns?" ”

Zhu Houjun replied: "Those firearms are all strange skills and tricks passed down from the West. If you fight a war, you still have to fight hard with real knives and guns! The general had already ordered those firearms to be sealed in the warehouse in Hangzhou City! Now that Hangzhou has fallen, presumably those useless firearms have fallen into the hands of the Japanese invaders. ”

This Zhu Houjun still pretended to be an uncle after losing the battle. Chen Di can't wait to cut it with a thousand knives at this moment!

Chen Di said: "Okay! Very good! Zhu Houjun, let me ask you again, why was the 9,000 Flying Tiger Army defeated by the Japanese Bandits, and only these 1,000 remnants remained? ”

Zhu Houjun said a word, almost crooked Chen Di's nose: "This is to ask Chen Butang!" ”

Chen Di held back his anger and asked, "How do you say this?" ”

Zhu Houjun replied: "There are 100,000 people who attacked Zhejiang this time!" Originally, there were 70,000 or 80,000 guards in Zhejiang, but when Chen Butang was the political envoy of Zhejiang, he abolished all the guards and troops! This led to the Flying Tiger Army fighting against the 100,000 army of the Japanese with 9,000 men! Nine thousand against one hundred thousand, it is reasonable that the Flying Tiger Army is outnumbered! ”

When Chen Di heard Zhu Houjun's words, he was already moved to kill.

Chen Di said with a smile: "So, is it because I was stupid and dismissed Zhejiang's Weisu Army, which led to the fall of Zhejiang?" ”

Zhu Houjun died before he put away his arrogance: "Hmph, Ben Jiang didn't say that." After all, it is the emperor's will to dismiss the Zhejiang Weisuo Army! It's just that if Zhejiang's 70,000 or 80,000 guards are still there, handed over to the general's command, and have a deal with the Japanese invaders, presumably Zhejiang will not fall so quickly! ”

Chen Di said: "In this way, the fall of Zhejiang is my fault!" Where is Hai Jui? ”

Hai Rui knelt down and said, "The lower official is here!" ”

Chen Di said: "The emperor ordered the headquarters to control the southeastern armies!" The headquarters naturally has the right to appoint and dismiss the officials of the Flying Tiger Army! Yu Shi Hairui of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the headquarters ordered you to be the superintendent of the Flying Tiger Army! ”

Zhu Houjun interjected again: "In my Jiajing Dynasty, the supervisors of each army were appointed by the public servants appointed by the celebrant supervisors, also known as the eunuchs of the supervising army. I've never heard of the Imperial History of the Metropolitan Procuratorate as a superintendent. ”

Chen Di didn't answer Zhu Houjun's words, but just asked Hai Rui: "Haijian Army, let me ask you, in the Ming military system, what is the crime of leading generals to lose their land in battle?" ”

Hai Rui replied, "Lord Yubutang, the crime should be beheaded!" ”

Chen Di said loudly: "Okay! The headquarters held the Longquan Sword on behalf of the commander, controlled the southeast military, and today he had to act according to the law and behead Zhu Houjun, the commander of the Flying Tiger Army! ”

When Zhu Houjun heard Chen Di say that he wanted to kill him, he was stunned at first, and then laughed: "Chen Di, don't be embarrassed!" The emperor ordered you to be the governor of Zhejiang, what account did you come to the Flying Tiger Army to discuss what matters, I have already given you enough face! You're going to kill me? I'm the emperor's cousin! If you talk about seniority, you still have to call me uncle! I still have the title of Duke of Ningguo on me! If you want to kill me, it won't be your turn! The emperor decreed that only the record of the Zongren Mansion can cure my crimes, understand? ”

Chen Di said to Lu Bing: "Take Zhu Houjun down!" ”

Lu Bing hesitated. Jinyiwei is a vicious dog raised by the royal family, which can bite hundreds of officials, but cannot bite the emperor's relatives!

Chen Di saw that Lu Bing had been delaying giving orders to his Ti Cai, so he simply ordered the two hundred veterans of the Flying Tiger Army: "Take down Zhu Houjun immediately!" ”

To put it bluntly, the Flying Tiger Army used to be Chen Diyang's private army! Chen Di's order was like a holy decree to the soldiers of the Flying Tiger Army! In addition, the soldiers of the Flying Tiger Army have long been dissatisfied with Zhu Houjun, the straw bag general who can only lead them to defeat the battle, Chen Di ordered, and several veterans immediately stepped forward and held down Zhu Houjun!

Chen Di asked loudly: "Where is the flag of the Flying Tiger Army?" ”

A hundred households took out the flag of the Flying Tiger Army from his arms: "Zhen Haibo!" Commander Zhu said that the army of the Ming Dynasty has never had any military flags. It has long been ordered to burn the Flying Tiger Banner. The last general was reluctant and secretly hid the Flying Tiger Army Flag. Today, I heard that Zhen Haibo was back in charge of the Flying Tiger Army, and he specially hid the military flag on his body and brought it. ”

Chen Di said: "Okay! Raise the flag of the Flying Tigers! The headquarters is going to behead Zhu Houjun and sacrifice the flag! ”
