Chapter 63: The Third Prince of Zhu

"Prince, we can't fight like this in this battle!"

Just as Yang Feng was admiring his war machine, in the yamen of the Ningbo prefect, Zhao Hongcan was kneeling in front of Yinren, pleading bitterly with a bloody heart.

Two days.

The 100,000-strong army continued to attack for two days.

Not to mention the breakthrough of Zhenhai, not even a single one climbed the city wall, but the dead bodies of the Qing army were once again covered under the city of Zhenhai, and the dead bodies of 10,000 soldiers, a whole 10,000 soldiers, were piled up on the bones and slag of the Qing army that were poured oil and burned by the Ming army after the last battle. Moreover, more than a dozen officers at or above the division level in Guangdu were killed, the general soldier of Jinhua Town was blown up by a cannonball, and Lan Ai, the chief soldier of Kinmen Town, was blown off a large tui, and he was still lying in the barracks howling at this time!

Such a battle can't be fought, even if he doesn't care about the lives of his soldiers, he knows that if he continues to fight like this, the army will collapse in a few days, and now there are already a large number of deserters.

Yinren, who was drunk, squinted at him, and suddenly smashed the wine glass in his hand in his face, and then stood up all of a sudden, rushed to him while bringing down the table, raised his foot and kicked him to the ground, kept kicking like crazy, and scolded like a roar: "Waste, it's all a group of waste, it's all a group of dogs, you are a dog, your father is also a dog, your family is all dogs we raise, what qualifications do you have to point fingers at me?" Do you really think of yourself as a human being? You are a dog, you have to do whatever I want you to do, you have to attack if I want you to attack, get back immediately, continue to attack, until Zhenhai is defeated, everyone there is killed, no chickens and dogs are left, don't tell me how many soldiers died, I just need to take down Zhenhai, I only need to defeat Zhenhai! ”

Zhao Hongcan, a very big northwest man, was kicked by him so that he held his head and didn't dare to fight back, so he could only keep rolling and wailing on the ground, and all the officials and generals on both sides were silent one by one.

"The holy decree has arrived, and the prince Yinren has received the decree!"

At this moment, a long shout came from outside the door.

Yinren stopped suddenly, and immediately after reacting, he knelt on the ground with those officials and generals, along with Zhao Hongcan, who was kicked into a pig's head.

Walking in was Prince Gong Changning, the content of the holy decree he brought was very simple, he commanded the armies as a messenger, Yinren immediately returned to Beijing, and the Hangzhou general Dandai who lost Zhenhai and escaped from the battle was beheaded, and his family sent Ningguta as a slave, as for Yan Baoyi, who had bewitched him to escape, that directly Ling Chi was executed and punished by the nine clans.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, please return to Beijing quickly!"

After reading it, Chang Ning handed the holy decree to Yinren and said.

Yinren suddenly laughed wildly, as if he had watched the most comical performance, and then took the holy decree very lightly, looked at it in his hand, and continued to laugh behind his back without thanking.

Chang Ning lowered his head in the back, looked at his nose, nose, mouth, and heart, pretending not to see anything.

Although Yinren was tortured by Yang Feng, the outside world is not very clear, but the news of his capture has already spread all over Beijing, as for who spread this, needless to say, anyway, the Admiral of Jiumen took dozens of people and did not stop the flood of news, in the eyes of those nobles in Beijing who are extremely politically sensitive, the abolition of the prince is already a certainty.

As Yinren's only existing uncle, he also has some pity for this nephew, after all, he is not a fool, and he has already seen what his third brother had in mind.

After Yinren left, those officials and generals hurriedly surrounded him to see the new Qincha, especially Zhao Hongcan, who was holding a pig's head, and looked at him with hope on his face.

Chang Ning looked at him, sighed and patted him on the shoulder and said, "General Zhao, the prince is in a bad mood, don't take it to heart as a courtier!" ”

"The lowly position is only loyal to the saint and the prince, and there is no resentment, even if the prince wants to die in the lowly position, the lowly position will never hesitate, but in the current situation, the prince, this battle really can't be fought like this. The sharpness of the thief's firearms is simply unheard of, as soon as the cannon is released, there is no living person within a dozen zhang of the landslide and the ground cracks of the cannonball, and the gun can hit hundreds of zhang away, and there is no missing bullet in dozens of zhang, and our soldiers are only killed in vain, and they are killed without waiting to get close to the city wall. This time, after two days of fighting, there were already more than 10,000 dead people, and there were several layers of dead bodies under Zhenhai City, which was really like a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, and it wouldn't take a few days to fight like this, and our men and horses would all be piled up under the city. ”

Zhao Hongcan said with tears in his eyes.

"Lord Zhao, Ling Zun Yongguan three armies, you are also a general in the field, we also worked together when we conquered Geerdan, why are you still so ignorant? Don't you know the consequences of the thief's occupation of Zhenhai? They occupy Dinghai at most and it is not a sea disaster, but once they gain a foothold on land, the entire south of the Yangtze River will be shaken, not to mention the wealth of Zhejiang, once the whole country is restless, no matter what the price is, Zhenhai must be recaptured. ”

Chang Ning said with a straight face.

"Lord Wang, the lowly duty does not mean that you will not fight, the lowly duty is just to say that you will slow down, and the thieves will have limited firearms in the rainy season in the coming year, and you will fight again when the wind and waves hinder sea transportation."

Zhao Hongcan pleaded.

"Don't say it, there are still a few months until the rainy season, does Lord Zhao dare to ensure that Jiangnan will not change in these months? Does Lord Zhao dare to protect those traitors who were not killed back then from being incited by Yang Feng to raise troops? ”

Chang Ning glared and shouted.

"Huh?!"

Zhao Hongcan shut up, he didn't dare to guarantee, he really didn't dare to guarantee, he knew very well how deep the hatred of the people in this place was for the imperial court, Suzhou, Jiading, Jiaxing, Kunshan, Haining, Jinhua...... The bloody names are all around here, the hatred will not disappear, but it is pressed in the bottom of his heart, Yang Feng is indeed difficult to make those people full of hatred move at sea, but it is completely different when he sets foot on land, once he ......

"Report!"

At this time, suddenly a Qing army officer rushed in, looked at the surrounding boss, knelt in front of Chang Ning of the Tuanlong Buzi with great eyesight and said: "Lord Qiqi, the thieves of Dalan Mountain called the third prince of Zhu to gather people to make trouble, break through the stream mouth and loot the military rations!" ”

"Third Prince Zhu? Why did a third prince Zhu emerge again? ”

Chang Ning said in amazement.

"Third Prince Zhu? Really? ”

Yang Feng asked the person in front of him.

This person was sent by the Zhang family brothers of Dalanshan to contact him, and the latter is said to have invited the third prince of Zhu, so he waited for Yang Dashuai's soldiers and horses to fight over and then joined forces.

"Really, absolutely true, the third prince has been hiding from the people before, and he lived in Yuyao, those were all fake before, and our village owner also learned about it by accident, so he specially invited him to preside over the overall situation, the third prince has officially named you the generalissimo of the soldiers and horses of the Great Tomorrow, just waiting for your army to fight over."

The man patted his chest and said.

It seems to be true.

Yang Feng looked at him a little entangled, Zhu Cihuan definitely couldn't get it, this old man is nothing, a lot of people don't have that heart for a long time, but he has a bunch of children and grandchildren, and these people are inevitably a little ambitious. Although Yang Dashuai is confident that these people will not be able to escape from his Wuzhi Mountain, it will be a trouble after all, but he has to send someone to send a letter to the Qing army, which is also a little unbearable, but there are still a few seedlings left in the orthodoxy of the old Zhu family, and it is too cruel to kill them.

"If it is really the third prince of Zhu, of course the marshal will be entrusted with his inheritance of the unification, but at this time, it is too hasty to rely on your words, you first insist on Dalan Mountain, my army is about to break the Tartars and recover Ningbo, at that time, we will distinguish the truth from the false, if it is true, there is no need to say anything, if it is false, it is indispensable to put him on a crime of counterfeiting!"

Yang Feng thought for a while and said.

Around him, including Huang Baijia, everyone also nodded yes, this kind of thing must be confirmed.

In fact, Zhu Cihuan's identity is also known to some people on their side, but Yang Feng refused to take it over on the grounds that he did not have a stable base and it was not appropriate to rashly expose his identity, and now this reason is a bit reluctant, so the solution of this problem is also imminent, after all, Yang Feng is now holding the banner of Daming, and the vast majority of his subordinates are still rushing to oppose the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty.

The man didn't say much, and was invited to rest.

After he left, Huang Baijia immediately said to Yang Feng: "Dashuai, why are they playing the signboard of the third prince of Zhu now?" Now that the Tartar army of more than 100,000 people has gathered in eastern Zhejiang, it is impossible for them to do anything, and they will be wiped out by sending an army casually. If there was no name of the third prince of Zhu, the Tartars might not pay too much attention to it, but now that they have this name, the Tartars will definitely send a large army to encircle and suppress it, why can't they endure it and wait for our army to capture Ningbo and then play the banner? ”

Isn't that simple? Now show the signboard of the third prince of Zhu, they can rush ahead of us, set up the court team first, and seal any important official positions by themselves first, when we go again, at most, they will be the kings all the way, and they are the core of the court. But if we fight this third prince Zhu again, then this court will be built by us, to put it bluntly, it is still that bit of power and profit, alas, didn't Nanming ruin this bit of things back then? Why don't you have a long memory at all, and the Tartar hasn't done much, so he intrigued first. ”

Yang Feng said with a sneer.

"Then let them wait, anyway, the third prince of Zhu doesn't know if it's true or not, how should we fight and how to fight, everything will be said after Ningbo is defeated!"

Huang Baijia said.

"But what if it's really the third prince of Zhu? Lord Chongzhen is just this bloodline. ”

Yan Hongkui said.

"If it's really the third prince of Zhu, let's take it personally, even if they can't insist that we take Ningbo, and the third prince of Zhu falls into the hands of the Tartars, it's a big deal that I will break into the enemy camp single-handedly, even if he is caught in Beijing, I will take him back."

Yang Feng said very heroically.
