"Report! Dongzhimen has been won! ”

In the imperial palace in Nanjing, a herald ran fast, wishing that he could grow two more legs, and quickly spread the news to Zhu Yunwen's ears.

This news is like growing wings, and it spreads quickly in the palace, because once the Dongzhi Gate is broken, it means that the army of the imperial court can enter Beiping City without hindrance, even if the other eight gates are firmly defended?

"Haha! Ha ha! ”

When Zhu Yunwen heard the news, he was overjoyed, and in order to show his happiness, he even called Hu Ye from the academy to the palace to share the good news with him.

"Boy, what do you think? I don't think you're going to need those people you mentioned. ”

Zhu Yunwen handed over the military report to Hu Ye's hand and said with a laugh.

"Exactly! Precisely! There is Cao Guogong's 500,000 army in front, once the Dongzhi Gate is broken and the imperial army enters Beiping City, Zhu Di's lair will be over, and Zhu Di will only be captured. Qi Tai also followed Zhu Yunwen and laughed loudly.

"Congratulations to the Emperor! Congratulations to the Emperor! Now that the rebellion of King Yan has been eliminated, the emperor's great cause can be accomplished! ”

Huang Zicheng was also very excited, once Zhu Di fell, no vassal king would be able to stop Zhu Yunwen from advancing, and he, Qi Tai and others would be able to become great heroes, and their achievements would be comparable to those of the founding heroes, isn't this what their generation of scholars dreamed of?

"What? Boy, why don't you speak? ”

Zhu Yunwen looked at Hu Ye curiously.

"Your Majesty, Weichen has nothing to say."

Hu Ye glanced at the military newspaper and handed it to Zhu Yunwen, to be honest, he couldn't figure out the authenticity of the military newspaper now.

Beiping in history was indeed besieged, but the result was that Li Jinglong besieged it for two months, and he was stunned and did not attack it, and finally was repelled by Zhu Di and his army.

But Hu Ye knows the history. There are big discrepancies in the current history, for example, Zhu Yuanzhang did not die in May in history, and it is very likely that Li Jinglong really broke through Beiping.

"Nothing to say? The emperor succeeded in quelling the rebellion this time, don't you have the meaning of congratulating at all? ”

Qi Tai said coldly.

"Lord Qi, did you see Cao Guogong break through the Dongzhi Gate with your own eyes?" Hu Ye asked rhetorically, but Qi Tai was speechless.

"This ...... This Cao Guogong's military report has returned! Can there be a fake? ”

Qi Tai roared angrily, feeling questioned by a little doll, which was disrespectful to him.

"Your Majesty, I think it's better to send someone to confirm."

Yun Zichen also had some doubts about the authenticity of this military report, after all, it was less than a day since the last military report. Could it be that Beiping City can't hold out even for a day? was broken by Li Jinglong? You must know that when Xu Da attacked Dadu back then, he didn't go so smoothly, not to mention that Zhu Di had been operating in Beiping for more than 20 years.

"What? Do you doubt it too? Zhu Yunwen looked at Yun Zichen.

"Your Majesty, Weichen is not suspicious, he just thinks that seeing is believing." Yun Zichen replied.

"There's no need to go, if you really have broken through Dongzhimen, you will definitely capture Beiping City soon, and then Cao Guogong will naturally send an army back. If this statement is false......" Zhu Yunwen's eyes flickered, and he could see the chill in it. Immediately, a cold sweat broke out on my back.

"Alright, that's all for today's meeting, you all go back." Zhu Yunwen waved his hand, and then gave an eviction order.

Walk out of the Fengtian Temple. Hu Ye looked up at the sky, the sky in November was already bitterly cold, even if the sun was shining, it was still a little cold. A cold wind blew, and I couldn't help but shiver.

"Boy, do you really think that Cao Guogong lied about the military situation?"

Fang Xiaoru walked over slowly. Asked Hu Ye in a low voice.

"Master Fang, I don't dare to say that, that's Guogong." Hu Ye shrugged his shoulders, he didn't dare to put this hat on his head, "I don't doubt Cao Guogong's command ability, it's just that I have been to see the Dongzhi Gate in Beiping, and it will definitely not be so easy to capture it in a short time." ”

"Do you think the siege of Peking will be a long thing?" Fang Xiaoru understood what Hu Ye meant.

"That's what Master Fang meant, I didn't say it." Hu Ye spread his hands, and then left the palace, preparing to go back to the academy to check the group of students' actual reports on buoyancy.

"This kid."

The corners of Fang Xiaoru's mouth twitched, and after cursing, he also left the Fengtian Palace.

"Zichen, if you send a trustworthy person to Beiping to have a look, I'm a little relieved."

When everyone left the Fengtian Palace, Zhu Yunwen said to Yun Zichen.

"Your Highness, go to the waist Weichen in person, if there is an accident, it's okay to ......"

"No, it's not time yet."

"Then Weichen will do it."

Yun Zichen nodded, and went to find someone to go to Beiping.

"Beiping, Beiping, fourth uncle, you had an opinion on me as the emperor's grandson back then, but I didn't expect you to be able to endure it for so many years, but now you want to expose the rebellion, don't you think that I have no one in the court?"

Zhu Yunwen held Li Jinglong's military newspaper in his hand, muttered, and then came to the desk and began to write hard, and soon wrote a letter, followed by two copies.

"Come on, send these three letters to Sheng Yong, Tie Xuan and Ping'an respectively, and let them strengthen the defense of the garrison, and don't take it lightly." Handing over the three letters to the eunuch, Zhu Yunwen breathed a sigh of relief, sat on the chair, and took a deep breath, "Cao Guogong, Cao Guogong, don't live up to my expectations." ”

At this moment, Li Jinglong, who was worried about Zhu Yunwen, was furious, because when he sent the military report of the good news back to Nanjing, Qu Neng told him that Dongzhimen had not been able to capture it for a day, and he had lost nearly 1,000 people.

"Rubbish! Rubbish! There are 50,000 people, and they can't even capture a small Dongzhimen! ”

Li Jinglong pointed at Qu Neng is stinking scolding, if it weren't for everyone in front of him, he would have kicked Qu Neng's feet.

"General, it is snowing heavily, the roads are slippery, and the attack of the army is blocked. And the city wall is not like what the general said, there are only a few hundred people, as far as the last general can see, there are thousands of people, otherwise it would not be possible to cause so many losses, I think the general's intelligence is wrong. Qu Neng replied loudly.

"You're saying I deliberately tricked you!"

Li Jinglong was furious.

"The last general will not dare, but he will tell the truth."

Soon, the troops from the rest of the directions also sent people to report that the troops defending the city had suddenly increased a lot, as if they appeared out of thin air, and according to the estimates of the generals, the total number of people defending the city was thirty or forty thousand.

"Bastard, how can there be so many more people!"

Li Jinglong was furious, pulled out a long knife from the weapon rack, and slashed down at the table before his death.

Obviously, he didn't have enough strength to cut the table in half, but the long knife got stuck on the table.

The generals wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, and they were very uncomfortable.

"Starting tomorrow! The nine city gates will attack me at the same time, and I must take down Beiping! Otherwise, you will come to see you! ”

In order to hide his embarrassment, Li Jinglong could only be even more angry, and gave death orders to the heads of the major city gates.

"General, now God..."Qu Nenggang wanted to talk about the weather, but was rudely interrupted by Li Jinglong.

"Don't make excuses! Even if the snow closes the city! Attack me tomorrow too! ”

Li Jinglong was very annoyed, he originally thought that Dongzhimen would definitely be able to be taken, so just after giving Qu Neng the order to attack the city, he had already sent a military report to Nanjing.

As soon as he thought that his military report might have reached the hands of the emperor now, and Dongzhimen had not yet been taken, he was very hard, if he couldn't take Dongzhimen tomorrow, he might not be able to escape the crime of bullying the king.

Thinking of this, Li Jinglong was very angry and said loudly, "Wang Tong! Tomorrow you don't have to attack Desheng Gate, lead 30,000 horses, and cooperate with Qu Neng to attack Dongzhi Gate, if you can't attack it, tomorrow I will take your head to sacrifice the flag! ”

"General, do you want to mobilize the people like this?"

Wang Tong was puzzled, isn't it just a Dongzhimen? Even if it snows all day, you can't afford to ask 80,000 people to attack, right? 80,000 people were able to fill the empty space outside Dongzhimen, and the pile of people was also piled up.

"What? Do you have an opinion? Li Jinglong's face turned cold, and Wang Tong immediately shut up, this person who is both a prince and a general, it is better not to provoke.

"Alright, I'll get ready." After Li Jinglong finished speaking, the generals all left the barracks and returned to their barracks.

And after a day of hard fighting, Dongzhimen was already a piece of mourning, there were only more than a thousand remnants, after this battle, hundreds of them had been lost, and Gao Ren's head couldn't help but get bigger.

"The commander, one hundred and thirty have been lost, and another hundred have lost their combat effectiveness."

The military doctor soon came to report the casualties to Gao Ren, and Gao Ren's brows furrowed when he heard this.

"Do your best to treat the wounded, send people down to clean up the battlefield below, they are all from the Ming Dynasty, and they can't be left in the ice and snow like this." Gao Ren muttered, already thinking about how to defend tomorrow.

"How do I clean it?"

The military doctor was a little dazed, he used to follow Zhu Di on the expedition, and he fought all the Mongols, and cleaning the battlefield was to loot the spoils. But now on the opposite side are the troops of the imperial court, all of whom are from the Ming Dynasty.

"Gather all the arrows, and as for the corpses, gather them all together, and place them all on the east bank of the moat, and let them dispose of them." As for our corpses, they were all brought into the city and buried properly. ”

"I'll do it."

The military doctor answered, and then walked down the city wall, and then with a group of soldiers, under the light of countless torches, began to clean up the corpses, and it was his own people, and carried them into the city gate, and the corpses of the enemy, and carried them to the east bank of the moat.

Looking at the scene outside the city gate, Gao Ren sighed, he wanted to think about something else, but his task now was to guard the Dongzhi Gate, and nothing else could be considered, this was the duty of a soldier. (To be continued......)
