Chapter 188: Gao You

It's no wonder that Zhang Jiusi and others don't dare to touch Zhu Eighty-one Tiger Whiskers, half-day Ke Baoying, Zhu Xiang Fan Shui, this combat power, how many people in the world dare to go against it? Even Zuo Cheng Qi Zhedu, who had confidently vowed to capture Zhu Tuhu alive outside Gaoyou City, was completely confused after getting the news. Sitting in the yamen every day, I was as nervous as an ant on a hot pot.

"The thief army is menacing, why doesn't Zuo Cheng ask Yangzhou for help? Please ask the king of Zhennan to come to the rescue? The two sides joined forces and fought with Zhu Butcher. Is it better than staying in the city and being attacked by the Zhu butchers one by one? At this moment, the prefect Li Qi also lost his confidence, and when he saw that Qi Zhe was frowning, he came to his side and whispered.

"Yes, yes! The thieves are powerful, adults should make plans as soon as possible! Qi Zhedu's confidant and favorite general, and the Hui person Na Tingding also stepped forward and whispered to Li Qi to help.

Of the three lines of defense, the first two lines of defense were pierced by the Huai'an red scarf, and the expected fierce general Dong Junxiao was still on the south bank of the Yangtze River and didn't know where to go. If you don't hurry up and find someone to come over to help, when the Zhu butcher arrives with soldiers and horses, there is a chance that everyone will be dead.

"Alas, you don't know what to expect!" Mengyuan Henan Jiangbei Province Zuo Cheng Qi Zhedu sighed, shook his head and said, "If you can join forces with Zhennan Wang Polo, why should the old man ask Dong Junxiao for help across a big river?" Let's go down and go about our own business, this idea, don't mention it again! ”

"This?" The prefect Li Qi's mouth moved, and he swallowed the words he wanted to say back into his stomach. As far as he knew, the Zuo Cheng Qi Zhedu in Henan Jiangbei Province in front of him was a rare person who understood. Not only proficient in the art of war, familiar with government affairs, but also magnificent. It is not a person who ignores the country's major affairs because of small grievances.

"Zhennan King Polo Buhua and Timur Buhua who guarded Luzhou are uncles and nephews, and Timur Buhua and Weishun King Kuanche Buhua who guarded Wuchang are brothers." Seeing that everyone's faces were full of confusion, Zuo Cheng Qi Zhe of Henan Jiangbei Province sighed, and added in a low voice, "Five years ago, Jiqing was stolen, and Polo didn't spend money to settle it. Then he and Weishun Wang Kuanche did not spend money to beg the thief Wu Tianbao in Jingzhou, and there was no reward in the court. Last year, the thieves Ni Wenjun and Chen Youliang attacked Wuchang, but the imperial court did not send a single soldier to rescue them. This year, because Kuan Che did not spend money, he lost Wuchang, seized his throne, and sentenced his son and monk to prison. Thanks to Kuan Che who didn't spend money and went through the queen's door, he was spared a death and changed to make meritorious service in front of the guilty army. ”

"Shhhh Li Qi and Na Tingding gasped in unison, unable to say a word for a long time.

This court is too harsh on the Zhennan Wang's family. Even if he is a demote, he has never seen such ruthlessness. If you win a battle, you will not be rewarded, and if you lose a battle, you will be held accountable to the end. It's no wonder that Zhennan Wang Polo didn't bother to watch Zhu Eighty-one toss in Huai'an, but as if he had nothing to do with him, he didn't want to give out the slightest strength.

was secretly sighing in his heart, but he heard Qi Zhe say quietly, "Your Majesty was turbulent when he was young, so it is inevitable that he will be more wary of people. And in the early years, there have been rumors that Prime Minister Boyan has always favored Polo Buhua. And after careful calculation, Polo does not flower, Timur does not spend and Kuanche does not flower, and they are all the descendants of His Majesty Xià! Alas! ”

"Shhh Li Qi and Na Tingding gasped again, and for a long time, they couldn't close their mouths.

In terms of position, they can also be regarded as four-grade members. But when it comes to royal anecdotes, I rarely hear about them, and I don't have the courage to inquire indiscriminately. And today, I never know whether it was because of his confusion or for the purpose of wooing, he actually brought out the secrets between the Mongolian royal family without reservation.

The most ruthless imperial family. This sentence is used by almost all ethnic groups in the East and the West. Therefore, there is no need to think carefully, Li Qi and Naradin know that it is impossible for Yangzhou to come with a single soldier. And with the morale and strength of the defenders at the moment, it is tantamount to a fool's dream to hold on until Dong Junxiao arrives.

"You two don't have to worry too much!" Knowing that Li Qi and Naradin didn't want to be loyal to the country so early, Zuo Cheng Qi Zhedu of Henan Jiangbei Province smiled miserably and said in a low voice, "The old man has already sent his henchmen to prepare a ship at Ximen. In case something happens, the old man will retreat from Gaoyou Lake with you and the others. Even if he was punished by the imperial court, the old man had to take out the reason why the thief army broke the city so quickly, so that the local government could be on guard as soon as possible! ”

"I'm waiting, I'm willing to fight to protect my lord!" Li Qi, Naradin and others were moved and sad at the same time, bowed down, and responded loudly.

Before Zhu Bayi, no one had ever been able to attack as sharp. Breaking the city in one day and one night, breaking the city in half a day, breaking the city with a stick of incense, from Huai'an to Baoying and then to Fan Shui, the city defense that used to be a headache for the attacker, in the eyes of his Zhu butcher, it seems that there is no zài at all. It is understandable if Huai'an City was breached because of the negligence of the defense of drainage ditches. Baoying and Fan Shuizhai are both a little unbelievable. In those two places, since the fall of Huai'an, countless iron cage gates have been installed on the drainage canal as soon as possible, even if he Zhu Butcher has a peerless divine weapon, it is impossible to cut all of them in the blink of an eye.

Obviously, in addition to artillery, the surnamed Zhu has also drummed up a new weapon to break the city. No one has ever seen it before, and there is no record in history at all. The defeated soldiers who fled back from Baoying City didn't know what it was, but said that the thief army had dispatched a large, sturdy ironclad cart that could walk on its own. And what is hidden under the ironclad car, and why it will make the east wall of Baoying City collapse like tofu, no one can understand.

It wasn't necessarily gunpowder. After Suzhou was breached, the news reported by the remnants of the defeated generals was seen by Qi Zhedu with his own eyes. According to them, the city wall of Suzhou City at that time flew into the air with a loud "boom". And this time, according to the rout soldiers who fled back from Baoying City, Baoying City was destroyed in a series of muffled thunder. And the walls collapsed on their own directly below, instead of flying upwards. The impact was limited to the wall between the two horse faces, and within a foot of the wall. Farther away, not even the slag was splashed.

"Demon law, Zhu Butcher is using demon law! Humble duty, humble duty can swear to heaven, see Zhu Butcher on the stage with his own eyes, step on the seven stars, "The centurion who ran back to report the news turned pale and swore an oath.

"Push it out, cut it!" Before the other party could finish speaking, Che Zhedu ordered the man to be executed.

He doesn't believe in gods and Buddhas, so he doesn't believe that there are any demons in this world. Even if there were, he had to see the spell casting process of the demon Zhu Butcher with his own eyes, and then report it to the imperial court, so that the imperial court could find a virtuous monk to find a way to solve it. So he can accept a strategic defeat, or he can abandon the city and flee for his life. But he couldn't allow himself to run away without even fighting Zhu Butcher.

He has to fight, even if he knows that he can't fight, he must fight Zhu Butcher once. After figuring out the true details of the other party, he can leave Gaoyou. This was his duty as a courtier, and it was also his pride as a Mongol. Genghis Khan swept thousands of miles back then, but he didn't rely on those wretches in the city who were lying on the merits of their ancestors and eating soft rice. There is no Mongolian smell in those people. And he has not forgotten the glory of his ancestors, and he still firmly engraves this pride in his heart.

"Oh no, the red turban thief is here, and the Zhu butcher is here to attack the city!" Suddenly, there was a panicked shout from outside the door, which caused the tragic atmosphere in the room to collapse in an instant.

"Ahh The prefect Li Qi immediately went to the weapon rack to grab the sword. Deputy Wanhu Na Thorn Ding drew his scimitar and stepped forward to protect Qi Zhe Du behind his back, "Don't panic, my lord, I will take you out in the end." Julio, Toha, you two get ready outside the door at once! Harakin, you go and control the west gate. ”

"Yes!" The three sons of the deputy Wanhu Natin agreed in unison, and ran out. Before he could run to the gate of the mansion, he made a "bang" and collided with Lu Shouyi, the commander of the thousand, who was rushing in.

"Great, sir!" Commander Lu Shouyi didn't care about standing up, and lay on the ground and reported loudly, "Zhang, Zhang Shicheng, Zhang Shicheng is back." Zhang Shicheng came back with the team and asked to enter the city just outside the east gate! ”

"Zhang, Zhang Shicheng? Are you talking about Zhang Ninety-four? It took a lot of effort for Qi Zhedu, who had already prepared for the worst, to hear which one Zhang Shicheng was coming. Frowning, he asked in a low voice.

"Yes, it's Zhang Jiusi!" Lu Shouyi took a few breaths and continued to report loudly, "There is also Li Bosheng, Zhang Jiusi's younger brother Zhang Shide, that is, Zhang Jiuliu, as well as Lu Zhen, Pan Yuanming, Qu Qiming and others, all back!" Also, with more than 5,000 brothers! ”

"Ahh Hearing this, Zuo Chengqi Zhe of Henan Jiangbei Province was stunned, sad and happy.

As the saying goes, at this critical moment, even the Mongolian officials in the city secretly packed their luggage and were ready to take a small boat to Yangzhou to escape for their lives. Zhang Shicheng, as a recruit who has only been in the army for more than two months, actually gathered so many soldiers and horses to come back to help in the war, how can this loyalty not be touching?

But in the heart of the prefect Li Qi, he was more cautious than Qi Zhedu. Before the other party ordered the city gate to be opened, he stood up and asked loudly, "Which direction did Zhang Shicheng come from, can the army be neat, and behind him, can there be chasing soldiers?" ”

"Nope!" Commander Lu Shouyi thought about it and shook his head vigorously. "Lord Qiqi, Zhang Shicheng ran back from the northeast, the line dragged on for a long time, and there were no chasing soldiers behind him!"

"Hmm!" Qi Zhedu immediately realized what Li Qi was reminding him of, frowned, and muttered in a low voice. Before he could decide whether to accept Zhang Shicheng's loyalty or not, a soldier more than eight feet tall rushed into the door. "Poof!" knelt on the ground, crying, and crawling forward, "My lord, my lord, please be gracious, save my two brothers." The last general, the last general is willing to follow the adults forever with the two brothers in the family, and he will never regret his death! Grace, my lord! ”
