Compared with the previous times when the reinforcements set off in a hurry, this time Yu Bohong had two more days to prepare.

It's not that the emperor is lenient and calm, but that it takes this time to transfer troops.

The previous 20,000 troops were defeated by the Tartars without doing anything, and it is said that the estimation of the strength of the Tartars is wrong, then it is obvious that the number of people at this moment is far from enough. Since they can't compete with each other in terms of environment, horse speed, and experience, they can only look for advantages in numbers and equipment.

The emperor did not intend to keep it.

This time he wants to raise more people.

Beiying is Yu Bohong's painstaking efforts for many years, he personally trained it, and it is also the most elite army in the Great Zhou. This time, the emperor intended to make the Beiying Forbidden Army the main force. In this way, the soldiers will work together and be invincible, and there will never be another miss.

However, the previous several increases in Gyeongnam and a large part of the troops led by the prince actually came from the northern camp. Therefore, the total strength of the North Battalion at this moment is only about 60,000.

The emperor planned to keep 20,000 troops in the capital, and transfer all the remaining troops in the northern camp to Yu Bohong, and then transfer another 20,000 troops from the Davids in Gyeonggi to gather 60,000 troops and hand them over to Yu Bohong in two days.

The emperor even handed over the control of the armory to Yu Bohong, and ordered that as long as General Yu needed it, he must do his best to provide supplies within two days.

The emperor also personally assumed the responsibility of supervising the axle weight of grain and grass, saying that he would not let him have any worries......

Yu Bohong has barely slept in the past two days, preparing everywhere.

In addition to all kinds of external affairs, in the house, he took into account Rong An's previous concerns and the emperor's repetition, and he also made arrangements before leaving.

After getting the emperor's signal earlier, Yu Bohong has always arranged a trusted forbidden army in the general's mansion, and later after Chang Rufei moved in, he got the emperor's permission to add a group of forbidden army covert protection.

Before leaving Beijing this time, he invited Liu Mingyuan, the commander of the Beiying Forbidden Army who stayed in Beijing this time, to have a meal, accompanied by Yu Tong, and there was a lot of sensationalism during the banquet. Just because he leaves, Liu Mingyuan will be the largest official in the army in Beijing. Yu Bohong felt that these Beiying brothers were the most reliable.

Liu Mingyuan was personally promoted and elected by Yu Bohong, and the general had the grace of knowing him, and after a few glasses of wine, he patted his chest and swore that after the general went out, if the Yu Mansion was in need, he would not say a word to help.

Yu Bohong nodded, this is what he wants.

Yu Bohong also took Yu Tong to the left and right neighborhood. The old mansion of the General's Mansion was given by Emperor Taizu after the founding of the country, and the neighbors on the left and right were also once glorious generals, and many of the family members practiced martial arts, and the guards and defenses were good. He opened his mouth to ask for help from the left and right to take care of it, and everyone understood the concern for the family when they went out to fight, so they naturally responded, saying that the Yu family would try their best to help if they were in trouble.

Yu Bohong also went to Shuntian Mansion in person, greeted the soldiers and horses, and went to the Hao family and other military generals who had a good relationship, and finally told the forbidden army guarding the Second Prince's Mansion, which basically relieved his heart.

He also arranged for a group of cultivated secret guards to pretend to be slaves to enter the general's mansion, and kept all the guards he had cultivated over the years. After that, he gathered everyone in the General's Mansion and handed over all the rights of the General's Mansion in the next few months to Rong An and Yu Tong.

At this point, the defense force of the General's Mansion has almost 500 people. plus the dark, plus the minions, it is more than six hundred.

"Dad, I'm still upset. You come back early. But even so, Rong An still felt uneasy.

"Originally, Dad wanted Yu Tong to take him to the training, but because you were not at ease, Dad Yu Tong stayed, and Dad explained everything about defense to Yu Tong. Dad has greeted Jingwei, and he will have very little work in Jingwei in the future. If you have any problems, look for him. The father of the Ge family also arranged for another team of people to go over. Rest assured. ”

Yu Bohong stroked his daughter's head again: "Your body is heavy, don't worry too much, take care of the fetus." When Zhu Chengyi comes back, this is a big surprise! Daddy will try to come back before you give birth! ”

The words are all right, but Rong An's anxiety has not been alleviated.

Zhu Yongze's troops in Qingnan were not enough before, so he transferred troops. Later, Liaojiang was short of troops, so he transferred troops. Then Yan An said that the troops were empty, and he transferred troops twice.

So the current strength of the capital is ...... It's not empty, but it's not much better. If something happens, where can troops be transferred to Beijing?

She just felt like one link after another, as if all the purpose was in the moment.

Transferring troops and transferring troops, it was not only elite soldiers that were transferred, but she found that the people around her were also transferred. Zhu Chengyi is not there, Hao Yan is not there, Chang Rufeng is not there, and Zhu Yongze is not there......

What about the emperor and the imperial court? It's about the same situation, right?

The generals who can fight in the imperial court are gone.

It's like talking about the emperor.

The suspicious emperor didn't have many people to trust, but now? Dad, the head of the northern camp, the commander of the forbidden army is about to go on the expedition, Mingwei General Hao Sheng, the commander of the Royal Forest Army Kan Xin, the deputy commander of the forbidden army Yan Peng, the general Yin Yuan, the chief of the secret guard Luffy, and the chief of the personal guard Gao Gao...... These high-ranking generals are not in Beijing......

Can this heart not panic?

"Dad, how many troops are there in the capital?"

"Beiying 20,000. The total number of officers and soldiers in the capital is at least 20,000. Gyeonggi is not far away, and if you really have something, you can get there in a day. ”

"But these guards in Gyeonggi have been transferred several times, haven't they?" I'm afraid there aren't many troops left.

"It's been a few transfers, but at least there are about 5,000 people in each guard. No matter how small the number of troops in the entire Gyeonggi region is, it will not be a problem to gather 60,000. With this amount, it is no longer something that ordinary forces can shake. Don't think nonsense, since the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty, there has never been chaos in the capital.

There is no choice at the moment. The mountains in Gyeongnam are high and the roads are far away, and the whip is beyond reach, so I won't mention it first. But Liaojiang and Yan'an had to be pacified, and if there was a mistake in those two places, the capital would be in danger. So don't think too much, the situation is forced to do so! ”

Yu Bohong looked at his daughter solemnly.

"Take good care of your family, don't run around when you're fine, be nosy, and don't go out unless necessary. If the sky falls, if there is no one to top, you will hide. Hide with your family. Daddy handed over your mother and your brother to you. Thank you for your hard work. Can it be done? ”

Rong An nodded repeatedly.

"Daddy, too. If there is a problem in Yan'an, don't be overly obsessed, no matter what the situation, remember that your family is waiting for you. As long as there are people, there is no time when the mountains and rivers are exhausted! ”

Yu Bohong smiled and nodded: "Dad promised you!" ”

Rong An took a purse and stuffed it into his father's hand.

Yu Bohong opened it and took a look, there were several peace charms inside, and he couldn't help laughing. He and Rong An didn't believe this, but he still hung his purse on his body in front of Rong An.

"Come back early."

Rong An just sent Dad Yu away......

knew that when the news of his father came back, he would have to wait for at least a few more days, so Rong An found something to do.

In order to make it easier to take care of her, she simply placed all the people in the palace, including the guards, to the general's mansion. Only a few people were left in the palace to guard the door. In this way, the strength of the General's Mansion has increased a little, and Rong An is finally a little more down-to-earth.

Thanks to the fact that the General's Mansion has always had few masters, there are large places, so it is simply placed, and there are also places.

The next three days were uneventful.

The Yan'an army in Liaojiang has all been put in place, the Tartars have retreated, and the army is preparing to recapture Fengcheng......

In the past three days, Yan An has received letters every day, and the content is almost the same: he is trying his best to find the prince, but he has not found it. The crown prince is still nowhere to be found.

The longer it goes, the less bad news it is.

At this time, if the Tartar gets the prince into his hands, it must not be silent, and he must either kill it to boost his power, or use it to manipulate or negotiate. So there is no news to at least prove that Zhu Yongxing did not fall into the hands of the Tartars.

That's fine.

As soon as Yu Bohong's army arrives, after launching a carpet search, the prince will definitely be able to be found! ……

While Rong An was waiting for news from his father, he was also waiting for Zhu Chengyi's reply. She hadn't heard from him for more than a month.

This time, she waited.

A letter from Gyeongnam said that the battle situation had begun to favor the side of King Gyeongnam and Zhu Yongze. And Qingnan's letter contained a letter from Zhu Chengyi to Rong'an.

It's still a few simple words, mainly to report safety.

After reading it a few times, Rong An put the letter in the drawer.

Looking at the two identical letters in the drawer, she felt a little relieved.

But after a breath, something flashed through her mind. Hot Books

That's not right!

Exactly the same envelope stationery?

Didn't it mean that Zhu Chengyi and the others had already joined up with Hao Sheng's army?

He has experienced this trip to the south, and after the army returns, there are many people with higher status than him in the army, and he should not be busy!

His living conditions should be good at the moment.

Take a step back, even if he is busy, he will always have his own leisure time!

But the two letters, both of which are concise and to the point, are only a few words...... The opportunity to deliver the letter is not easy, and he has not seen him for almost half a year, so he should have a lot to say.

At the very least, he should have asked about the child!

But neither.

Rong An opened two letters again.

The handwriting on the top is all scribbled.

It's a feeling of rush.

Why do the two letters feel so similar?

Rong An gasped and folded the two pieces of letter paper neatly together.

The point of the first letter and the end of the letter are forced to penetrate the back of the paper. This is Zhu Chengyi's habit of writing.

After careful observation, she found that the focus of the first letter had left a faint ink mark on the same place on the second paper. So, when the first letter was written, it was clear that the letterhead from the two letters was next to each other. That's why the ink that was blurred earlier will be left on the next piece of paper!

However, there was a gap of more than a month between these two letters!

More than a month has passed, and he has never used paper? Do you still have the stack of paper you used earlier? Can you still find it?

Zhu Chengyi is a careful person, when he writes, if he is not in a hurry, how can he not put a paper on it? After a month of writing, how could he not take away the paper with ink marks?

Therefore, although he wrote both letters to report safety, they must have been written in a hurry in a very unstable situation!

Rong An made a careful comparison and found that even the ink color was exactly the same. The smell of ink is also exactly the same.

She couldn't help but guess that the two letters were not written a month apart, or at the same time. Only in this way may these doubts be explained.

Rong An didn't understand again.

What is Zhu Chengyi doing?

She was very sure that it was written by Zhu Chengyi himself. She was sure that there was nothing strange about the letter, that there was nothing hidden in it. So, is it just to reassure yourself?

After this discovery, her heart panicked even more!

Rong An also went to find Yan Feiqing.

Feiqing also received Hao Yan's letter. Hao Yan is not good at words, but he also wrote three pieces of paper.

"I ...... Can you take a look at that recent letter? Rong An asked.

"As long as you don't make fun of me, you can." Yan Feiqing blushed and handed over the letterhead.

Sprinkled and chattering, although it is full of warmth. At the end of the letter, Hao Yan also expressed his thoughts carefully and even sandwiched a small red flower inside......

"What's wrong? What's wrong? Yan Feiqing found that Rong An's face became more and more ugly.

It's inappropriate. But it's not himself, it's not Hao Yan, it's Zhu Chengyi.

Hao Yan is a big old man with a tendon, but he can talk nonsense on three pieces of paper in a row, and take the initiative to express his thoughts, and he also has a casual mood with dried flowers, which shows that they were not busy in the army in the days when they wrote the letter, at least they had enough leisure time, right?

So what's going on with Zhu Chengyi?

They should be together! ……

Rong An went to Chang's house again.

The Chang family also received a letter from Chang Rufeng. Rong An also watched it.

It is also three sheets of paper full of warmth.

Rong An's face became even more ugly.

Mrs. Chang naturally asked.

Rong An expressed his doubts.

"I was worried that he was going to do something dangerous, and I was afraid that I would be worried, so I wrote a few letters in advance. At this moment, it is very likely that someone else is on a mission, or something has already happened, so Gyeongnam took his previous letter and came out to deal with it first. ”

When Rong An said this, Mrs. Chang's brows also knotted.

"Don't scare yourself!"

Although the old lady did not understand, she still gave some comfort.

"The identity of the prince is sensitive. He is going to Gyeongnam, compared to General Hao, Hao Yan, and my grandson, it must be safer. If there is danger, General Hao will definitely not let him go. Everyone will protect him. Since Gyeongnam sent a letter saying that they have joined forces with General Hao, you don't have to worry. What's more, you are sure that it is written by the Son of the World, and he has no intention of asking for help between the lines......

King Gyeongnam and him are not ordinary. Ru Fei is even better with him, and it's not that no one is available, they won't let him have an accident, and they won't let him take risks. Besides, something really happened to him, who would dare to hide it? will only send him back to the capital immediately! Don't worry! The march is out, and there are many conditions, which is not something you can or I can guess. ”

Mrs. Chang smiled and stroked Rong'an's pregnant belly.

"When you're pregnant, it's easy to get cranky. You have to relax, otherwise the child will become ugly and will have a bitter gourd face. The old lady changed the subject. Can the imperial doctor cut out the boy and girl? ”

"Nope. But I think it's a girl. ”

"Hello girl. Have an intimate pimple by your side, and look at it with joy. ”

"That's what I thought too."

Rong An stayed at Chang's house for a while, and told the old lady and Mrs. Chang about Chang Rufei.

While he was talking, a visitor was reported outside.

Rong An took his leave.

Although she talked and laughed with Mrs. Chang, the worry in her heart was still the same. She is worried about this and that, and there is more Zhu Chengyi at the moment. Is......

As she went out, she happened to see the carriage.

It's from the palace.

It's a father-in-law who came.

And when she arrived home, the general's mansion also parked a carriage in the palace.

"Princess, someone has come to the palace."
