However, Zhu Yuanzhang thought about it, the generals under Xu Da's command are not vegetarians, Xu Da's army is one of the strongest combat forces in the army, if these generals refuse to obey their orders, the loss will be greater than the more than 100,000 soldiers in Chuzhou.

Zhu Yuanzhang quickly calmed down from his anger, and the current situation is not up to him. Outside, there are Han King Chen Youliang's people sloppy eye, and there are more than 100,000 Chuzhou generals outside Yingtian City, whose current whereabouts and stays cannot be determined, this is an extremely important matter, and these things are already extremely tricky for Zhu Yuanzhang. Zhu Yuanzhang didn't want anything wrong with him at all, if there was some turmoil in the army, it was very likely that he would not be able to resist the attack of Chen Youliang, the king of the Han Dynasty.

This point is very important, and the officers and men in the army must not be separated from morality, and Wu Guogong has already understood this matter in his heart. In any case, you can't order these generals under Xu Da to be arrested, if you really do this, it is very likely to make the soldiers in the army think that you have gone too far, after all, Xu Da has been put under house arrest now, if you blatantly ignore the generals under Xu Da's command, it is very likely that this group of people under Xu Da's command will immediately rise up and riot, Yingtian's elite men and horses have already let Chang Yuchun take Chang Yuchun to the front line to confront the Han King Chen Youliang. If the generals under Xu Da's command instigated the soldiers to rise up and resist, I am afraid that Ying Tian would not be able to suppress this tiger and wolf army at all.

Zhu Yuanzhang is not a stupid person, so he naturally understands that the current situation cannot be done to the generals under Xu Da, but Zhu Yuanzhang also knows that if the news of Xu Da's disobedience spreads, it will damage his prestige.

Glancing at the herald kneeling on the ground, Zhu Yuanzhang lowered his voice and said: "I already know what you have just reported, and I can't tell anyone about this matter for the time being, if I find out that you tell anyone else about this, be careful that I want your head."

An icy chill rushed to the hearts of the heralds kneeling on the ground in an instant, and from the low and cold tone of Zhu Yuanzhang, the Duke of Wu, the herald had already felt a solemn taste.

The Wu State Guild would not order him to be killed, and thinking of this, the herald's body couldn't help but tremble.

Zhu Yuanzhang saw the situation of the herald's trembling, and he already understood in his heart that the soldiers in front of him would not dare to leak this matter easily, so he let go of the idea of killing the herald, and said to the kneeling soldiers in a slightly soothing tone: "The matter is already here, then forget it, you should not have been under Xu Da, if you can go in the future, I am sending you over." But there is one thing you must listen to clearly, no matter what the future may be in this matter, you are not allowed to reveal half a sentence to anyone without my order, do you understand? ”

"Wu Guogong, please rest assured, such a confidential matter will be taken care of by his subordinates." The herald was full of soldiers.

Although Zhu Yuanzhang, the Duke of Wu, did not say to the herald that if you leaked your tone to others, you would kill him, but from Wu Guogong's expression and tone, the herald had already sensed this very obviously. For the herald, he naturally didn't dare to say anything, for fear that if he accidentally angered Wu Guogong, Wu Guogong would change his mind and kill himself to cover up the news.

Zhu Yuanzhang did have such an idea in his heart, but in view of the current situation, Zhu Yuanzhang felt that it would be useless to kill this person, if he let people know that the herald actually died because of this incident, I am afraid that there will be more trouble in the future.

After Wu Guogong finished speaking, he was still thinking about how to deal with the fact that the generals under Xu Da's command did not listen to the dispatch, so he didn't speak again for a long time.

The herald quietly glanced up at Wu Guogong, and saw that Wu Guogong seemed to be in deep thought, without any sign of orders, so he cautiously asked: "I don't know if Wu Guogong has anything to explain to his subordinates, if not, his subordinates will retire first." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang was awakened from his contemplation by the voice of the herald, and after a little thought, he opened his mouth and said to the herald: "After going down, you must remember the words of your father, and you should understand the truth of the misfortune." ”

As soon as the herald heard Wu Guogong say this, he hurriedly kowtowed to Zhu Yuanzhang of Wu Guogong on the ground and said: "Although the subordinates are stupid, but what Wu Guogong said, the villain must remember it, and he will not dare to forget it for a while, and he will not disobey the order." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang waved his sleeves and said, "Since that's the case, you can go down." ”

Hearing this, the herald kowtowed to Zhu Yuanzhang a few times like a death row prisoner hearing the amnesty for the first time, then stood up and walked out of the room quickly.

Zhu Yuanzhang also couldn't sleep all night, and the matter of Xu Da's subordinates was really a very heartwarming thing for Zhu Yuanzhang, the Duke of Wu. The dignified Wu Guogong is actually going to be coerced by the soldiers under his command, if this kind of thing is spread, it will inevitably hurt the prestige of Zhu Yuanzhang, the Duke of Wu Guogong, but the reputation is still damaged, if this matter is not handled well, it is very likely to bring the danger of destruction to Ying Tiancheng, which is extremely unwilling to see for Zhu Yuanzhang.

So when he got up in the morning, Wu Guogong Zhu Yuanzhang was in a bad mood, and when a little guy was serving, he accidentally broke a teacup, and Zhu Yuanzhang was angry and let the little guy drag him out and beat a lot of sticks.

After a stick was served, the little guy was beaten twice and drenched in blood, and everyone who saw it was heartbroken. When the other little maids in Wu Guogong's mansion learned about this, they all trembled and deliberately did things carefully, for fear that one would be bad and do something wrong, which would make Zhu Yuanzhang, the Duke of Wu unhappy, and he was also beaten so violently.

If it is the anger of the other, it is really too wrong. It was because Wu Guogong's mansion seemed to be shrouded in a miserable fog and gloom, and some of the maids who saw the opportunity had already gone out of the house to buy things and avoided it.

However, there are people who dodge, and naturally there are also people who accidentally crash into the door.

At noon, the city defense officer of Ying Tiancheng hurried to Wu Guogong's mansion and said to the guards that he wanted to see Wu Guogong.

After the guards inspected the person's token, they let the person enter Wu Guogong's mansion, and a small servant guided him in front of him, and led the city defense officer to Wu Guogong's daily official signing room.

Zhu Yuanzhang received the city defense officer with a gloomy face.

"What is the important thing to come here today?" Wu Guogong Zhu Yuanzhang asked at a glance.

"Qi Wu Guogong, my subordinates came to see Wu Guogong today because of a strange thing." The city guard spoke.

Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned for a moment and said angrily: "Didn't my father say that he didn't believe in strange forces at all, how could he say anything strange to me." ”

The city defense officer, who originally thought that he might be appreciated by Wu Guogong when he came to see Wu Guogong today, couldn't help but feel a little lost when he heard Wu Guogong's tone like this.

However, even so, he didn't dare to reveal the slightest hint of such a meaning, and still said humbly to Zhu Yuanzhang, the Duke of Wu: "Duke Wu, when my subordinates saw Duke Wu today, I didn't want to talk about anything strange, but my subordinates saw a strange thing in the city today, so I came to inform Duke Wu." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang said with some unhappiness: "When is it, you hurry up, don't play dumb riddles with your country." ”

"This, this matter is related to the generals in the army, and I can allow you to take a step to speak." The city defense officer glanced at the little guy and said to Zhu Yuanzhang, the Duke of Wu.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at this person's state and already knew that this person must have something important to tell him, but he didn't want anyone to be there, so he couldn't be known by others.

Zhu Yuanzhang waved his sleeves at the little guy who was waiting on the side, and said to the little guy: "You go down first, no one is allowed to enter this room without the order of your father." ”

The little guy was stunned, and immediately understood that Wu Guogong must have something important to discuss with the city defense officer, but because he was by his side, he couldn't speak freely.

Zhu Yuanzhang in the house heard the footsteps of the little maid disappear, then turned back to the city defense officer and asked: "You came to see your own government today, what do you have to discuss with your own father." ”

The city defense officer hurriedly excused himself and said: "Wu Guogong, here's the thing, when his subordinates routinely inspected the city tower today, they found that there were many people gathered outside the city, no less than tens of thousands, but the distance was a little far, and the subordinates were afraid that Chen Youliang, the king of Han, would send troops to attack, so they sent a few probe horses to investigate. ”

When Wu Guogong heard that it might be the Han King Chen Youliang who sent troops, he hurriedly asked; "How's the return of the horses?"

Zhu Yuanzhang knew that Chang Yuchun and Tang He had already gone to fight against Chen Youliang's Han army, and if Chen Youliang, the king of Han, had a strange army, even if the number was small, it might shake the people in Yingtian City. If people's hearts fluctuate, even if Ying Tiancheng can hold it, it may be extremely dangerous.

Besides, Chen Youliang's attack on this matter was arranged extremely secretively, although Zhu Yuanzhang arranged some eyes and ears in Hanyang City, but he actually came to Chen Youliang to leave the palace and go to the front line to supervise the news that he did not find out.

Zhu Yuanzhang was extremely worried in his heart that Chen Youliang's painstaking arrangement hid a conspiracy that was still indistinguishable to this day, because when he heard the city defense officer say that it was very likely to be the Han army of Chen Youliang, the king of Han, Zhu Yuanzhang of Wu Guogong naturally asked urgently.
