Chapter 929: Desperate

Zhu Youstew is already incomprehensible to His Royal Highness the Father.

Although he lives deep in the palace, the strategy of the imperial court has always been stubborn, and it is understandable to stick to it, at least the civil and military officials are unanimously agreed.

But now, Zhu Hu suddenly asked for a personal expedition, which really made Zhu Youstew a little unexpected.

It's just that today's Zhu Hu has changed his gentle impression, and he said with a straight face: "Your Majesty, this world belongs to Your Majesty, and Weichen has a word, I don't know if Your Majesty is willing to listen?" ”

"But...... But it doesn't hurt to say that. At this time, Zhu Youstew was already completely messed up, and when he heard the royal driver's personal expedition, it was obvious that his face was very unsightly.

Zhu Hu said coldly: "Now, the main force of the Langshan army has surrounded Jiujiang, and in a few months, it will be able to reach the city of Jinling, when hundreds of thousands of Langshan troops and Hao Fenglou's headquarters will gather together, why should Jinling resist and rely on what to hold?" So far, the only way to do this is to take risks, Your Majesty has done its best to make Jinling elite, drive the expedition in person, race against time, besiege Zhenjiang, annihilate the enemy of Zhenjiang, and hold Hao Fenglou, one of which is to boost the morale of the three armies, and the other is to catch Hao Fenglou, so that the thief is afraid. It is difficult for Taizu to create a foundation, and our descendants are not good, but this country must not fall into the hands of a different surname......"

"Weichen deliberately did not move the Xu family before, not because of the benevolence of women, one of them is just to stabilize the hundred officials. And the second is to do everything possible to stabilize Hao Fenglou, so that they have the illusion that Wei Chen is just an indecisive and benevolent person, for this reason, Xu Jingming came back, whether he is a meticulous work of the Langshan army, or he is really a loyal minister of the imperial court, in fact, it is not important at all, the important thing is to misjudge the Langshan thief. As for Hao Fenglou's revision of the book Empress Dowager Xu, I asked the Empress Dowager Xu to reply to the letter to discuss peace. The same is true for this reason. ”

And now, there are all kinds of signs that the thieves in Zhenjiang really made a wrong judgment. They didn't expect that such an indecisive person as Weichen, or that a person who has illusions and is eager to seek peace, would actually take risks, know himself and the enemy, and be invincible. Boost the morale of the three armies, hundreds of thousands of troops crushed a Zhenjiang, this battle will be won, take Zhenjiang, all the military horses in the world, will be deeply encouraged, at that time, His Majesty to Hao Fenglou as a threat, ordered Langshan thieves to retreat. Or calmly order the remnants of the Jiangxi battalion to first drag the enemy in Jiujiang, and then exhaust the elite and daring men of Jinling, advance by land and water, and encircle and suppress them. Is there any reason for this thief to be unreasonable? ”

"What does my father mean that Xu Jingming is a fine work?" Zhu Hu's words impressed Zhu Youstew too deeply, and he never expected it. Just when his father was currying favor with him like a spring breeze, a layout had quietly unfolded. Even he, the Son of Heaven, was kept in the dark.

Zhu Hu smiled and said: "Actually, whether Xu Jingming is meticulous or not, what does it matter?" ”

Zhu Youyou stewed for a while. fell silent.

The risks taken in the royal expedition can be imagined, he is not a person with courage, and he has to think about this matter again.

Zhu Hu said: "Why is Your Majesty silent? ”

Zhu Youstew smiled bitterly: "Will my father go with me?" ”

Zhu Hu shook his head and said: "When Jinling is empty, I am afraid that someone will plot against him, and Weichen must sit here to prevent Xiaoxiao." And Your Majesty is the Ninth Five-Year Honor, if it is a pro-conscription, it will also be able to boost the morale of the three armies, so that the soldiers are willing to move forward bravely, although the officials and soldiers of the imperial court are boasted of hundreds of officials, it seems that everyone is loyal and brave, but Your Majesty must understand that compared with the bandits, the morale of the officers and soldiers has always been unstable, only Your Majesty appears in Zhenjiang, so that the soldiers can move forward bravely, Your Majesty, now the society is in danger like a tired egg, and those who want to achieve great things, which one should not take risks? The rebellious ministers and thieves are in front of you, can Your Majesty still sit high in Jinling? ”

Zhu Hu couldn't help but show a little hideous at this time, and continued: "The Son of Heaven defends the country, and the king dies, this is a matter of course. Your Majesty ......" Zhu Hu didn't say a word, and fell directly to the ground.

When Zhu Youstew saw it, he immediately panicked, stepped forward and helped Zhu Hu up, but he still didn't let go: "It's just that it will take at least half a month for the elite to go hand in hand and arrive in Zhenjiang. ”

Zhu Hu smiled slightly: "Weichen has asked the King of Qi and the King of Zhao to lead the headquarters to attack Zhenjiang, and in a few days, they can reach Zhenjiang City, although their guards are not elite, but they barely have some combat power, among which there are many cavalry, there are more than 4,000, Weichen has instructed them not to have a decisive battle with the enemy of Zhenjiang, if the thief army goes out of the city to fight, they can retreat dozens of miles, but if the enemy of Zhenjiang wants to retreat, then immediately pursue the tail, even if the bandits want to withdraw, but it is not so easy. ”

Everything was suddenly clear.

This is a plan carefully arranged by Zhu Hu, on the one hand, he began to show weakness and did not move the Xu family, which was to prove to Hao Fenglou that the division in Jinling was extremely serious, so that the dignified King Zhou did not dare to make a move on the Xu family, which means that the power of the Xu family is still there, which undoubtedly gave Hao Fenglou a wrong idea, that is, he could sow discord and achieve the misjudgment of surrendering without a fight.

In addition, he made every effort to stick to Jinling and build fortifications everywhere, so that the Langshan thieves thought that the king of Zhou was cautious and determined to stick to the enemy, so as to paralyze Hao Fenglou.

And more importantly, Zhu Hu instigated the Empress Dowager Xu to repair the book and discuss peace, which brought Zhu Hu's 'cautious' character into full play, and all this is just an illusion, and the real battle has just begun.

Seeing that the Son of Heaven was still embarrassed, Zhu Hu finally smiled, smiled very coldly, and said in an unquestionable tone: "Now, it is no longer for Your Majesty to weigh the pros and cons, Your Majesty, everything is ready, only the east wind is owed." ”

After saying that, he turned around directly and stepped out of the warm pavilion.

Coming out of the warm pavilion, a eunuch waited for a long time, Zhu Hufeng glanced at him lightly, and said word by word: "Empress Dowager Xu, closely monitor, as for Xu Jingming, immediately ask someone to take it down." ”

"Yes."

Outside Zhenjiang, a military horse suddenly appeared.

It's the Ming Army.

When the scout came to report, Hao Fenglou was suddenly a little stunned, there were 20,000 people in this army, although the number was small, but they were all elite, because their cavalry army was as many as 5,000.

You know, this horse is a rare thing, Lang Son army also wanted to form a cavalry, but the scale has been limited, the reason is nothing more than that horses are very expensive, not as affordable as firecrackers, and more importantly, the consumption of horse material is also a large expense.

Raising one cavalryman, and even spending money, is higher than more than five foot soldiers, and now, five thousand cavalry actually appeared.

This made Hao Fenglou not naΓ―ve to think that these were just small groups of harassment troops, this was an elite.

And the other party obviously couldn't let such a military horse come to die, the only possibility was that this was a vanguard of the other party, so Hao Fenglou began to be cautious, he suddenly noticed something unusual, so he immediately called the generals to start discussing.

In the end, it was concluded that the court had made a big move, and in order to judge the intentions of the other side, two battalions of Lang Son troops began to attack, but soon, they returned in vain, because the scouts of these guys immediately sent a warning signal when they saw the Lang Son army attacking, and immediately after that, they ran away.

That's right, he ran away from the wind, ran faster than a rabbit, ran for dozens of miles, and the festival was shattered.

But when the two battalions returned in vain, they began to advance again and ran back.

You must know that this kind of person is the most disgusting, but these disgusting people make Hao Fenglou keenly feel that something is going to happen, something is going to happen.

A huge controversy began to take place within the military.

Almost everyone has already judged that the actions of the imperial court after this must be even more staggering, because the Ming army outside the city is obviously just an appetizer, and their purpose is also obviously to monitor the Lang Son army, or rather, delay the Lang Son army to prevent the Lang Son army from retreating.

Then, it is highly likely that the coming will be the elite of the imperial court, then...... What should the Lang Son Army do?

Retreat and return to Changxing, this is of course good, you can get rid of this army and prevent them from pursuing, then it is necessary to send thousands of men and horses to break the rear, and once these thousands of men and horses wait until most of the Lang Son army escapes to the sea, they will be isolated and helpless, and the whole army will be annihilated, and resolutely hold on, what will you face next?

The military attachΓ©s of the Langshan Army, the vast majority of them are adventurers, this is not taught by Hao Fenglou, in fact, these people follow Hao Fenglou, I don't know how many victories they have fought, because they have always despised the officers and soldiers, so in the following discussion, the vast majority of them resolutely oppose the stubbornness, let them break their wrists, and abandon the robes of thousands of brothers, it is obviously better to give the Ming army outside the city a head-on blow to make their blood boil.

And in the midst of this controversy, Hao Fenglou also began to hesitate, it was not that he couldn't make a wise judgment, in fact, the Ming army was only a small-scale attack, so he immediately abandoned an elite army and fled to the sea, for fear that it would greatly affect morale and even make his prestige fall to the bottom.
