Chapter 369: Three Visits to Nanjing City [1 Update]

Chu Yi's side relied on the height of the boat and the large number of men and horses, and was stunned to crush the side of King Ning's rebels, only to kill these King Ning army's troops in a hurry, and fled in a hurry.

Standing on top of the huge warship, Chu Yi looked at the chaotic scene in front of him.

The collision of rivers and even the sea is not as good as that on land, even if it is the elite on land, if it is not water-permeable, once it is on the boat, I am afraid that it will be difficult to exert some combat power.

Fortunately, Jiangnan has been peaceful for a long time, even if King Ning tried his best to come up with such a sailor, but it was much worse than the sailor created by Chu Yi when he had already prepared.

It can even be said that if it weren't for the fact that some of the soldiers in King Ning's army were provided by those maritime merchants, it would be impossible for King Ning's navy to hold out under the impact of the imperial army.

I have to say that among the Ning Wang Sailors, the strength displayed by some very few warships is still quite amazing, don't look at the large number of troops brought by Chu Yi, but if the Ning King Sailors are all of that kind of combat power, I am afraid that in this water battle, the final victory or defeat is not yet known.

Although many people in Jiangnan Maritime Merchants chose to support King Ning, the strength of these people's support is obviously very limited, and it is obviously impossible to let them do everything they can to support King Ning.

That is, Chu Yi wants to cut their flesh and bleed on them, forcing them to have no choice, otherwise, in the eyes of these people who only have interests in their eyes, what does King Ning's rebellion have to do with them.

That is, it is advantageous for King Ning to oppose them, so they will choose to support King Ning.

If one day, King Ning endangers their interests, I believe that these people will not hesitate to choose to abandon King Ning and choose someone else.

A floating corpse on the surface of the water and a burning warship, dozens of Ningwang sailor ships, most of which were directly captured, some were destroyed, and a few boats also escaped first.

However, with the few boats that escaped, unless King Ning was able to gather another group of sailors in a very short period of time, it would not be able to stop the imperial army led by Chu Yi from appearing outside Nanjing.

How to deal with the prisoners and how to settle those captured warships didn't need Chu Yi to bother at all, but after more than an hour, the fleet set sail again.

On the second day of King Ning's enthronement ceremony in Nanjing, Wang Shouren, who had broken down Zheng Qi's rebels, attacked Nanchang City with all his troops and horses, including thousands of rebels who had been captured.

The entire Nanchang City suddenly seemed to be crumbling, looking like it might be attacked at any time.

Zhu Gongjiao, the king of Yichun, personally appeared on the city wall and sat in the town, and even several times the imperial army that attacked the city was killed in front of Zhu Gongjiao, but under Zhu Gongjiao's crazy counterattack, the imperial army was blocked from Nanchang City.

From morning to evening, the tragic siege battle did not stop at all, Wang Shouren seemed to have made up his mind not to take Nanchang City and never give up, his more than 20,000 soldiers and horses were divided into several parts, and then took turns to attack the city, without giving the rebels in the city a chance to breathe.

Although it is said that King Ning's rebels rely on Nanchang City to a certain extent, these horses under King Ning are really good and bad, and the soldiers and horses left in Nanchang City are a group of rabble.

If it weren't for the large number of people and the fact that there is such a city as Nanchang City as a support, I am afraid that the defenders of Nanchang City would have collapsed long ago.

If the defenders in Nanchang City are elite soldiers and horses, tens of thousands of defenders can not fight against more than twice as many siegers in the case of defending the city, it is simply not too easy. And why is it like now, the city is crumbling, and it may be breached at any time.

Zhu Gongzhu was dressed in armor, standing on the city wall under the protection of a group of guards, looking at the endless siege of the imperial court soldiers and horses, his eyes flashed with jealousy: "Crazy, Wang Shouren, he is a madman, this has been a full day, the imperial court soldiers and horses have been killed and injured at least four or five thousand, he is not afraid that if this continues, his soldiers and horses will collapse?" ”

Zhu Gongzhu almost scolded angrily, who let Wang Shouren attack wholeheartedly, did not give them time to rest at all, and refused to stop even after paying a lot of casualties.

It is almost two miles away from Nanchang City, which is the place where Wang Shouren's soldiers and horses are stationed, and Wang Shouren stands on a high platform and looks at the direction of Nanchang City.

Wang Shouren's whole person stood there like a statue.

Seeing that a wave of soldiers who had finally rushed to the city wall were driven down by the rebels again, killing and wounding hundreds of people, Wang Shouren couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

If he could, Wang Shouren was naturally reluctant to choose the next step of forcibly attacking the city.

It's a pity that no matter what the quality of the defenders of Nanchang City is, but this Nanchang City is really built by King Ning.

Several persuasions had no effect, and Wang Shouren's idea of wanting to break up Nanchang City's resistance from within was completely cut off.

As King Ning's lair, King Ning naturally put a lot of effort into it, so for a while, it was naturally a little unrealistic for Wang Shouren to attack Nanchang City from the inside.

Standing beside Wang Shouren, Wang Wu secretly glanced at Wang Shouren and opened his mouth.

With a light sigh, Wang Shouren seemed to notice Wang Wu's small movements and said, "It's almost time, pass my general order and order everyone to attack the city together." ”

Wang Wu couldn't help but exclaim when he heard this, and looked at Wang Shouren in astonishment, obviously not expecting that Wang Shouren would give the order to order the whole army to attack.

However, after Wang Wu reacted, no matter what he thought in his heart, he instinctively accepted the order.

Soon, under Wang Shouren's order, in addition to the soldiers who were damaged in the battle, more than 10,000 soldiers and horses were gathered and headed towards Nanchang City like a tide.

Zhu Gongjiao, who had originally repelled a wave of attacks from the imperial court, suddenly saw the dense army below, and his heart was shocked.

Realizing that this might be Wang Shouren's blow, Zhu Gongjiao couldn't help but scream loudly and shouted: "Everyone quickly go up to the city wall, if anyone disobeys the order, there will be no forgiveness!" ”

Zhu Gongjiao was wearing silver armor and roaring with all his might, and he saw a group of soldiers rushing up the city wall, looking at the black and oppressive army below with a little fear.

A series of ladders were erected on the city wall, and the number of ladders was more than double that of before, obviously in the process of attacking the city before, the imperial court had hidden some strength, but now it put all its strength out.

"Kill, kill, kill......"

Zhu Gongjiao led his guards to roam around the city wall, slashing and killing a soldier who rushed to the city wall.

I have to say that Zhu Gongjiao's own ability is not bad, at least he dares to appear on this city wall to kill the enemy, not to mention anything else, at least this courage is not something that ordinary people can have, but it is no wonder that King Ning will hand over the defense of Nanchang City to Zhu Gongjiao, not the prince of King Ning.

Yao Yao watched Zhu Gongjiao attack everywhere on the city wall, killing many imperial court soldiers and horses who rushed to the city wall, Wang Wu, who followed Wang Shouren, couldn't help frowning and said: "My lord, this Yichun King is really not simple, if he wasn't in charge, I'm afraid that Nanchang City would have been broken a long time ago." ”

Wang Shouren glanced at Zhu Gongjiao, the king of Yichun, lightly and said: "Zhu Gongzhu is the backbone of Nanchang City, as long as Zhu Gongzhu is dead, this Nanchang City will be broken!" ”

Yes!

Wang Wu couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, and at this moment Wang Shouren stretched out his hand to take the bow and arrow that straddled the horse, and then bent the bow and arrow.

There was only a loud thud, and an arrow broke through the air.

Zhu Gongzhang, who was commanding the soldiers on the city wall to resist the imperial soldiers and horses rushing up the city wall, suddenly felt a little chill in his heart, and subconsciously looked under the city wall.

At a glance, Zhu Gongzhuo couldn't help but shrink his eyes, instinctively wanting to dodge, but unfortunately he was a step slower.

saw that an arrow accurately sank into Zhu Gongjiao's chest.

Zhu Gongjiao's body was weak, his hands were the city wall, his eyes fell on Wang Shouren under the city, and the two looked at each other across the void of more than ten zhang.

The corners of his mouth showed a little bitter smile, Zhu Gongjiao's eyes darkened, and the screams of the guards came from his ears, and he sighed lightly in his heart, Nanchang City is over!

"King Yichun is dead, King Yichun is dead!"

A shout sounded, and the rebels who had barely held the city under the leadership and encouragement of King Yichun suddenly heard that King Yichun had died in battle, and everyone naturally couldn't believe it, and subconsciously looked in the direction where King Yichun was.

After all, for a long time, King Yichun has been urging everyone to resist the imperial army on this city wall, and everyone can know whether King Yichun is alive or dead.

But when everyone looked, they didn't see the silver figure in armor, and even the flagpole on the top of the city tower representing the banner of the Yichun King Shuai didn't know when someone shot it with an arrow.

"King Yichun is dead, everyone run!"

"The city is broken, escape!"

Especially at this time, several waves of imperial soldiers and horses rushed to the city wall again, without the encouragement of King Yichun, coupled with the psychological impact caused by King Yichun's death on these rebels, I don't know how many rebels were stunned for a while.

Suddenly, there was a loud shout, and the soldiers, almost instinctively, dropped their blades and fled.

Even the King of Yichun was killed in battle, how could they be able to defend Nanchang City.

It was under the influence of this idea that almost half of the rebels abandoned the defense of the wall, and as a result, a large number of imperial soldiers climbed the wall and occupied a section of the wall.

As these soldiers who climbed the city wall stabilized the situation, a steady stream of soldiers also rushed up, and finally the situation on the city wall was reversed.

It was only a cup of tea after Zhu Gongjiao, the king of Yichun, was shot by Wang Shouren, and with the sound of squeaking, the gate of Nanchang City was opened, and the imperial army rushed into Nanchang City excitedly.

Wang Wu followed closely beside Wang Shouren and laughed excitedly.

The news of the city's destruction was too sudden, before Zhu Gongjiao was shot, the city was stable, although it was said that he was attacked on the city wall several times, but he was driven down again and again.

Although the prince of Ning, who was in the palace, said that he had never dealt with Zhu Gongzhuo, he was not completely stupid, he knew very well that if he wanted to defend Nanchang City, he must rely on Zhu Gongzhuo, so he let go and handed over the task of defending the city to Zhu Gongzhuo.

Being in the palace, Prince Ning couldn't help frowning when he heard the faint sound of shouting and killing, glanced at Wan Rui and said, "Manager Wan, do you say that King Yichun can keep Nanchang City?" ”

Wan Rui smiled slightly and said: "Although the King of Yichun has a somewhat arrogant temperament, he still has the ability, otherwise the prince would not have handed over Nanchang City to him to guard." ”

King Ning sighed lightly and said, "I hope he won't disappoint his father!" ”

While he was talking, a commotion came, and Prince Ning couldn't help but be shocked and said, "Manager Wan, quickly send someone to check, what the hell is going on!" ”

This sudden uproar, don't say that it is the prince of King Ning, even Wan Rui can't help but shrink his eyes, he doesn't need to be ordered by the prince of Ning, Wan Rui immediately ordered an attendant next to him to check.

Before the chamberlain left the palace, he saw a general rushing into the palace in embarrassment, and said from a distance: "Shizi, Shizi, the big thing is not good, the king of Yichun was killed by Wang Shouren with an arrow on the city wall, the army is in turmoil, and the imperial army is ...... The imperial army has entered the city! ”

"What!"

Ning Wang Shizi was shocked when he heard this, his face showed a look of horror, and after reacting, Ning Wang Shizi was like an ant on a hot pot pulling Wan Rui and said: "Manager Wan, King Yichun is dead, Nanchang City is broken, how is this good, how is this good!" ”

Wan Rui took a deep breath and said sharply: "Your Royal Highness, the old slave will escort you out of Nanchang City, and we will go to find the prince!" ”

As if grasping a life-saving straw, King Ning Shizi said again and again: "Yes, yes, go to find your father, and when you get to your father, everything will be safe!" ”

Soon, a team of palace guards escorted King Ning Shizi out of the palace and went straight to another city gate.

At the same time, the imperial army also invaded Nanchang City, and the entire Nanchang City fell.

In front of King Ning's mansion, a general said to Wang Shouren with a respectful face: "My lord, the last general and others are one step late, and the prince of King Ning has already fled first, but the other sons of King Ning have not had time to get out, including Princess Ning and others, have already taken them all." ”

This general was very excited, originally everyone did not have much confidence in breaking through Nanchang City, but under the leadership of Wang Shouren, everyone was stunned to capture Nanchang City.

King Ning is the anti-king, this Nanchang City is his old nest, whether it is King Ning's princess and other relatives, or the relatives of his ministers, military generals, most of them are in Nanchang City.

Taking Nanchang City is definitely a great achievement, but even if the generals who accompany Wang Shouren do not make other military exploits in the future, this military merit alone is enough to win the reward of the imperial court.

Wang Shouren nodded slightly and said to Wang Wu beside him: "Wang Wu, pass on my general order, all soldiers will strictly enforce military discipline, but anyone who disturbs the people will be severely punished!" ”
