All the civil and military people present are not fools, what Yang Tinghe said, in fact, they are very clear in their hearts, but they are a little unacceptable in their hearts for a while, after all, it directly involves their own families, and they would rather deceive themselves.

Li Shishi sighed lightly and saluted King Ning and said: "Your Majesty, retaking Nanchang City will not be able to recapture many civil and military families in the court, so the first thing Your Majesty needs to do now is to stabilize the morale of the army and stabilize the overall situation." ”

King Ning nodded slowly and said, "Please also ask Mr. to teach Gu how to stabilize the army's heart." ”

Li Shishi's eyes narrowed and said: "Your Majesty should reward all the generals with gold, silver, and beauties, and seal their official positions, so that even if the news of the fall of Nanchang City spreads, the army's morale will not be in chaos, as long as the army is not chaotic, my new dynasty will not be chaotic." ”

Liu Yangzheng stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, what Lord Li said is very true, for today's plan, we should stabilize the morale of the army!" ”

No matter what the other civil and military officials were thinking at this time, seeing that Yang Tinghe, Li Shishi, and Liu Yangzheng were all kings of Quanning, they put the overall situation first, and everyone also advised King Ning.

King Ning sighed lightly: "It's all strange that the lonely person is unknown, if it weren't for the negligence of King Yichun, Nanchang City would not have fallen......"

Yang Tinghe said: "Your Majesty don't blame yourself, as long as Your Majesty can defeat that Chu Yi, and then personally raise the army to the north, break through Beijing City, and win the world, in the meantime, even if it is some sacrifices, it can be bearable." ”

Many people couldn't help but look at Yang Tinghe angrily when they heard this.

Yang Tinghe is alone, but there are no family members left in Nanchang City, but they are different.

In order to make King Ning more at ease with them, they took the initiative to leave their families in Nanchang City as hostages, which can be said to be a tacit understanding between them and King Ning.

But now that Nanchang City has fallen, all their relatives have fallen into the hands of the imperial court, which makes them how to accept it for a while.

Now Yang Tinghe actually said that even if he paid some price, it was not impossible, but it was not clear that he had directly abandoned their relatives?

It's just that no matter how angry they are in their hearts, they can't say it directly, it's okay to be angry, but once they say it, they will inevitably be seen by King Ning, and then King Ning will definitely have a mustard in his heart, that is to lose his wife and break his army.

King Ning looked at everyone's expressions and reactions, and said slowly: "Don't worry, I will send someone to discuss with Zhengde Xiao'er, no matter what the price is, I will definitely save everyone's relatives." ”

Although he said that he didn't report any hope, but King Ning said this, at least there was a glimmer of hope, in case Zhu Houzhao was mediocre, he really returned his family to them!

King Ning, who was in a depressed mood, was about to go back to the harem to rest, but before he could open his mouth to let everyone disperse, he saw a chamberlain walk into the hall with a little panic and said, "Your Majesty, General Zu asks to see you!" ”

King Ning's face couldn't help but change when he heard this, Zu Jiang was the admiral of the navy appointed by him, responsible for the defense above the river, and it could be said that it was the outer barrier of Nanjing City.

At this time, Zu Jiang came to ask for a meeting, something must have happened.

"Biography!"

Soon, the embarrassed Zu Jiang entered the main hall, bowed down in front of the hall with a puff and said, "Chen Zu Jiang greets Your Majesty!" ”

Looking at Zu Jiang's embarrassed appearance, King Ning inexplicably had a bad feeling in his heart, looked at Zu Jiang and said, "General Zu, get up quickly!" ”

Zu Jiang still knelt on the ground and said: "The minister is guilty, please punish Your Majesty!" ”

When King Ning heard this, he suddenly chuckled in his heart, and suddenly got up and looked at Zu Jiang and said, "General Zu, what happened, don't come quickly!" ”

So Zu Jiang led him to inspect the river, but he encountered the imperial court reinforcements led by Chu Yi, and after a big battle, the news that the water division was almost wiped out came out one by one.

King Ning said with a look of surprise: "What, Chu Yi has arrived near Nanjing, he ...... Didn't he stay in Huai'an City all the time? ”

Although it was very shocking to say that Chu Yi suddenly appeared outside Nanjing, fortunately, King Ning was only slightly shocked, after all, he had ascended the throne and claimed the emperor, Chu Yi, as Zhu Houzhao's number one confidant, had to come to quell the rebellion even if there were many reasons.

Facing Chu Yi was nothing more than a day earlier and a day later, and now that Chu Yi had arrived near Nanjing City, it also made King Ning's heart fall.

Since you have to face Chu Yi sooner or later, it is better to face it sooner rather than later. The only thing that made King Ning a little sad was that the sailor he had managed to get together was destroyed in a battle.

Looking at Zu Jiang who was kneeling on the ground, King Ning said: "I forgive you for your innocence, General Zu and get up!" ”

Zu Jiang's face showed a little relief, and he slowly got up after thanking King Ning.

Looking at Zu Jiang, King Ning said in a deep voice: "General Zu, since you have already fought with Chu Yi, in your opinion, what is the strength of the imperial court's soldiers and horses?" With our strength, can we stop the soldiers and horses of the imperial court? ”

Zu Jiang said in a deep voice: "The soldiers and horses of the imperial court can be called elite, but the strength of our army is not bad, Chu Yi only brought a mere 20,000 soldiers and horses to come, does Your Majesty think that Chu Yi wants to rely on those 20,000 soldiers and horses to break through Nanjing City?" ”

Hearing what Zu Jiang said, King Ning was stunned for a moment, and then laughed, and said while laughing: "What Aiqing said is very true, but I want to see how he Chu Yi can deal with me with an army of 20,000." ”

I have to say that the army of more than 100,000 under the command of King Ning is where King Ning's confidence lies.

Originally, King Ning had nearly 100,000 soldiers and horses, and after breaking through the city of Nanjing, tens of thousands of imperial soldiers and horses in the city naturally surrendered to King Ning, and now King Ning has almost 150,000 troops under his command, which is not unimpressive.

One is 20,000 and the other is 150,000, a difference of several times, and King Ning is really not afraid of Chu Yi.

General Li Zhen's eyes narrowed and said, "Your Majesty, the last general is willing to lead the troops to meet that eunuch for a while!" ”

Hearing this, King Ning looked at Li Zhen, and said with a deep smile: "Okay, I promised you an army of 50,000 to behead Chu Yi for me!" ”

Li Zhen was overjoyed, 50,000 against 20,000, this is clearly the credit of sending to the door, if he can kill Chu Yi, then this great merit will belong to him.

Thinking that he would be able to leave his name in history by killing Chu Yi, and the world would sing about it, Li Zhen couldn't help but feel the joy in his heart.

However, Li Zhen did not forget a little, looked at King Ning and said: "Your Majesty, that eunuch's kung fu is unpredictable, and the last general asked himself if he could exterminate Chu Yi's army, but he was not sure that he could kill Chu Yi's eunuch, so please ...... Your Majesty."

King Ning's eyes narrowed, and he nodded slightly: "General Li, although rest assured, I will send someone to assist General Li, and someone will entangle Chu Yi at that time." ”

Hearing what King Ning said, Li Zhen was in high spirits and said: "The last general will definitely live up to Your Majesty's expectations and dedicate Chu Yi's head to Your Majesty." ”

Outside Nanjing, in the previous battle, King Ning's sailors were almost wiped out, even if they escaped a few big ships, they were hiding in the harbor at this time, where did they dare to risk their heads and die.

So in this case, the 20,000 troops under Chu Yi landed smoothly and set up camp.

Chu Yi looked at the dragon and tiger capital city in front of him from afar, and couldn't help but sigh.

The city of Nanjing in the Ming Dynasty is worthy of being the largest city in the world, and with the scale of Nanjing City today, even if it is the city of Beijing, it is slightly inferior.

You must know that the Ming Taizu set the capital of Nanjing City, but Nanjing City expanded a lot.

A Nanjing city from the outside to the inside will be divided, the outer Guo, the capital, the imperial city, the palace city, not to mention the capital, just say that the outer Guo is more than 50 kilometers long, the Zhongshan Mountain, Xuanwu Lake, Shogunate Mountain and other large areas are encircled into the outer Guo City.

You can imagine how huge the whole city of Nanjing is.

At this moment, Chu Yi's army was stationed a few miles outside the Qilin Gate at the southernmost tip of Waiguo, on the verge of the river.

The whole outer Guo is dozens of miles long, most of them are piled up by loess, although it is not comparable to the brick and stone city wall, but looking at the city wall made of high loess, in a condescending situation, if you want to break through the city, the besieging side is naturally at a disadvantage.

Just when Chu Yi was looking at the city near the Qilin Gate, Li Zhen, the general who received the order of King Ning, personally led 50,000 soldiers and horses through the Shangyuan Gate, Xianhe Gate, etc., and out of the Qilin Gate, tens of thousands of troops set up a formation in the open space outside the Qilin Gate.

Backed by the Qilin Gate, a continuous city, and in front of it is an open field, far away from the military camp of Chu Yi's army.

Looking at Chu Yi's 20,000 army, and then looking at the 50,000 army behind him, Li Zhen couldn't help but be full of confidence, and said to several generals beside him: "Everyone, let's go with this general to meet this powerful eunuch for a while!" ”

Several generals couldn't help but laugh when they heard this.

Although they said that they had always heard of Chu Yi's reputation, they had never seen Chu Yi, they only knew that although Chu Yi was not young, he was favored by the Son of Heaven, and his hands were covered with blood, so they were naturally very curious about Chu Yi, and now they are very interested in hearing about it.

Li Zhen drove forward immediately, about two miles away from the place where Chu Yi's army was encamped, and stopped, and saw a herald drive forward, and said before the camp: "Chu Yi listen, my general has something to say to you, don't come out quickly!" ”

Chu Yi, who had just returned to the camp not long ago, looked at Qi Hu and the others, and said with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "Oh, you said that a team of people came out of Nanjing City, and its lord is going to see the governor?" ”

Qi Hu frowned and said, "Overseer, if you let your subordinates go and behead that person, the province will make noise here!" He didn't want to think about his identity, and how could he see the Overseer if he wanted to......"

Chu Yi put down the book in his hand and said with a slight smile: "This governor wants to see who has such courage!" ”

While speaking, Chu Yi slowly got up, and the two little eunuchs hurriedly stepped forward to serve Chu Yi and changed into python clothes, tied up their hair crowns, and walked out of the big tent wearing a dark color, turned over and rode straight to the camp gate surrounded by a crowd.

[Well, three more thousand words, big guys, double the monthly pass, it's the end of the month, see if the monthly pass is still available, smash it, the fleas will be ......]
