Chapter 573: Cornered Arutai

Zhu Yunwen is gone after all.

Early in the morning, no one was paying attention, riding a horse, bringing with him a knife and a jug of wine.

In addition, the military arsenal clerk also prepared a bow, a crossbow, and a gun for him, a total of sixty bows and arrows, and sixty crossbow arrows.

Fortunately, the horse that Zhu Yunwen rode was very powerful, and with these equipment, the war horse did not feel tired when running.

Because of the rebellion in Taiyuan City, there are few people on the official roads outside Taiyuan City.

Zhu Yunwen walked on the official road to the north in the sunshine at noon after such a snow.

No one sent him, and no one hindered him.

It's just on the gate tower of the far gate of Taiyuan City.

There were a few people standing quietly behind the city wall, silently watching the one on the official road outside the city.

Zhu Yunxi changed his clothes, the indigo blue trolling was draped in a pure black coat, his hands were holding a hand to warm the stove, surrounded by several people, his eyes calmly looked at Zhu Yunwen who was traveling north.

Jin King Zhu Li frowned.

He didn't agree to let Zhu Yunwen go north alone and go to the vast grassland to find Liu Zongsheng and others.

Not to mention the size of the grassland, where can the enemy be found.

is Zhu Yunwen alone, if he meets Liu Zongsheng and others, how can he take revenge.

Gao Yangzhi had some admiration in his eyes.

The things that were originally worried didn't happen, and the wasted people didn't have a grudge against the grandson because of the lost child, and they didn't have any bad influence on the clan at such a stormy time, which was the best result.

Gao Yangzhi stared at the back of Zhu Yunxi, who had reached the end of the official road and was gradually moving away.

He chanted in a low voice, his expression solemn.

"Persuade you to have a glass of wine, and there is no one in Yangguan in the west."

Wang Xinling, the young governor of the General Political Envoy Department, tilted his head and looked sideways at the senior who was also young but was already in the cabinet.

Gao Yangzhi looked sideways, and a smile appeared on his face: "If he can return to the Central Plains safely, I will add another posture to the supreme glory of the Ming Dynasty." ”

Wang Xinling nodded as if he didn't understand.

There has never been a shortage of heroic stories and heroic feats in the Central Plains.

Zhu Yunwen went out alone to seek revenge.

No matter what the outcome is, as long as he can come back, he will become a hero of the whole world.

Zhu Yunxi sighed lightly, held the stove and turned his arm.

Zhang Hui, the official of the hundred households of the Jinyi Guard, who was waiting on the side, immediately bowed forward and carefully took the stove handed over by the imperial grandson.

Suppressing Sun Cheng and secretly guarding Tian Mai, because they failed to block Liu Zongsheng and other White Lotus Sect rebels in Taiyuan City, they are also rushing to the border pass now.

The decree of the Taisun cannot be changed.

Before these thieves were found, it was probably impossible for the two of them to return to Taisun.

It is precisely because of this that Zhang Hui temporarily got the opportunity to work beside Zhu Yunxi.

Sending out the stove, Zhu Yunxi sighed lightly: "Lonely, I only hope that he can not leave." ”

"Your Highness is merciful, but now it is like this, but it is also the best result."

Gao Yangzhi whispered comfort.

Zhu Yunxi smiled: "I don't know if I'm lonely, it's just ......"

He was rarely shown to be indecisive.

Zhu Li snorted coldly, raised his hand and patted Zhu Yunxi's shoulder, glared and said, "This is Brother Wei'er's own choice." Let's say that at the moment, there are still many things in Taiyuan City and Shanxi Road that you need to preside over, so you must not linger too much. ”

Zhu Yunxi nodded and looked at Gao Yangzhi: "Is everything going well now?" ”

Gao Yangzhi immediately replied: "There are hundreds of households in the yamen of Taiyuan City who are interrogated with people, and there are no officials in the city who have missed the net. The officials accompanying the Northern Tour also began to take over the affairs of the yamen of various departments, and they thought that they would be able to get started in a few days.

The Jin merchants and gentry who participated in the rebellion in Taiyuan City have also been confiscated one by one, and the people of the household department are counting the money, money, grain and grass everywhere. Because the amount is large and widely distributed, it will take a few days to sort out. ”

"What about the Taiyuan City Garrison?"

Zhu Yunxi asked another question.

Compared with the officialdom of Shanxi Province and the confiscated Jin merchant gentry's money and grain, whether the soldiers, horses, and soldiers of Shanxi Province can stabilize is a more important matter.

This is a matter for the military, Gao Yangzhi closed his mouth and looked sideways at Cao Zhen, Marquis of Jingchuan, who had been silent for a long time.

Cao Zhen immediately stepped forward and clenched his fists: "Back to Your Highness, with the assistance of Wei Ben, the commander of Shanxi Daodu, the commander of the envoy, the people in the Taiyuan City Garrison who have anything to do with the thieves have been found out and handed over to Jinyi Wei for interrogation."

Wei Ben also handed over the list of Shanxi guards who he knew in the past few years and had dealings with anti-thieves. As for the rest that he didn't know, there were Jinyi guards who tracked down through the interrogation of existing people. ”

Zhu Yunxi frowned and pondered, his fingers gently turning the white jade wrench on his thumb.

After half a ring, he spoke again: "Let the soldiers and horses of the guards of the Taiyuan Mansion change the guard with the Henan Provincial Guard." Tell Yu Ma to control these soldiers and horses of Shanxi Province first, and when the Jinyi Guard finds out, he will take them down one by one.

ordered Xiping Hou Muying, and led the troops and horses to return to Beijing in turn. The three guards of the Zhou Wangfu and the Qin Wangfu were transferred into Taiyuan, and when the Shanxi army was not stable, it was still necessary for Zhongliang to sit in the town to deter Xiaoxiao. ”

Gao Yangzhi and Cao Zhen glanced at each other, and the two bowed at the same time.

"The minister commands."

Zhu Yunxi said again: "Fate, Jiaozhi Daobu Political Envoy Division, open this year's autumn grain, go straight to Beiping, and hand it over to the Beiping Metropolitan Division to transfer Datong Mansion." ”

After several fatwa orders in succession, the latest Taisun fatwa made everyone present hesitate.

Gao Yangzhi raised his head, and his eyes looked at the young but mature and experienced imperial grandson in front of him with some solemnity.

Cao Zhen looked excited.

Zhu Li rubbed his hands.

If everything is not wrong, when the grain and grass of Jiaozhi Road arrive in Datong, and when the spring of next year begins, and the road is solid after the snow melts outside the pass, it is time for Zhu Yunxi to personally lead the troops to the north to conquer the grassland and expel the remnants of the Yuan thieves.

There was the emperor's original will, and no one could make an objection.

Even, a few people faintly knew it in their hearts.

After this northern tour, Taisun is about to officially take over the military and political affairs of the empire.

On the Jingshi side, the emperor is rarely seen in the palace newspaper recently, and all the affairs of the imperial court are handled by the prince on weekdays.

No one is sure that the emperor will suddenly announce to the world that the emperor will be the crown prince on a certain day.

When that time comes, the crown prince in front of him will naturally become the crown prince.

The prince is in the middle palace, and it is easy not to leave.

And before that, this northern tour can be said to be Zhu Yunxi's last chance to act outside so aggressively.

Stabilizing the Wara Department and Conquering the Tatar Department is the most important reason for Zhu Yunxi's trip to the north of Beijing.

Just when everyone is thinking differently.

Officers and soldiers rushed over from the city tower, all the way to Zhu Yunxi, and knelt on the ground.

"Your Highness, there are people from the Tatar tribe who claim to be envoys, and they want to ask to see His Highness and discuss the matter of the western expedition to the Warat department."

The officers and men did not know what had just happened on the castle tower.

When it's finished.

Including Zhu Yunxi, everyone had strange faces.

The Tatar people said that they would go west with the Ming to conquer the Warat.

What a joke.

Not to mention, at this time in Taiyuan City, there can still be a group of Tatar envoys.

Zhu Yunxi looked at a few people around him.

Zhu Li immediately sneered: "This time, there is a group of outsiders who invaded the palace, I think these people can't escape, so in order to protect themselves, Yang said that they were envoys." ”

Gao Yangzhi was also a little surprised: "If it is really an envoy, the border gate should have reported early." ”

Cao Zhen said succinctly: "Your Highness, you ordered, the minister will go and cut off the heads of these thieves!" ”

Zhu Yunxi shook his head and waved his hand.

He walked to the inner side of the wall and looked down from above.

I saw that under the tower, there was a group of Tatars guarding two men.

With a sneer on his face, Zhu Yunxi never looked back, and asked in a low voice: "The thieves in the city, can they all be found out and convicted?" ”

Gao Yangzhi stepped forward and replied: "Da Ming Law, everything involves rebellion and rebellion, regardless of the master and slave, all will be killed." ”

Zhu Yunxi nodded with satisfaction: "Then invite these 'Tatar envoys' to the school field in the city." ”

Gao Yangzhi was stunned for a moment, and then reacted immediately.

He immediately said: "The minister receives the order, which makes people escort the rebel to the school field and behead him for crime." ”

Zhenyuan Gate downstairs.

Arutai and his son Ab were the only two of them, and they waited uneasily on the side of the street, guarded by the last remaining warriors of the tribe.

From time to time, the two looked up at the towering tower.

And half an hour ago.

Somewhere in Taiyuan City, it was a remote and dilapidated mansion where Arutai and others were hiding.

People kept coming back from outside, informing them of the movements of the officers and soldiers in the city.

Arutai's face was solemn, and he sat on the main seat in front of the hall, and he didn't say anything for a long time.

Abu was full of anxiety, clenching his hands and pacing back and forth in front of his father Arutai.

"Lord, we have less than twenty men left in the city."

"At present, there are officers and soldiers of the Ming Court everywhere in the city, and there are officers and soldiers patrolling the streets, so I can't find a way to escape from the city......"

An attendant rushed back, whispering in a deep voice.

Abu's face became more and more anxious, and he looked back at his father, who was silent, and then turned his head to look at his entourage, and asked, "What is the government doing now?" Where is the imperial grandson of the Ming court now? ”

The attendant replied: "The people of the government are checking the houses and courtyards everywhere, and if we don't leave, we will soon find out." As for the imperial grandson of the Ming Court, it seems that he is now taking people to the Zhenyuan Gate. ”

Abu's heart was beating faster, and he waved his hand at his entourage irritably.

When his retinue left, Ab turned around and walked in front of his father, Arutai.

"Father!"

Ab called out in a deep voice.

It's just that Arutai has always been silent and does not say a word.

Abu was anxious in his heart, and his tone was aggravated: "Father! If we don't make a decision, we will definitely die in this Taiyuan city today!

Whether you go or stay, you have to make a decision! ”

Arutai was still silent, not even moving.

After half a ring, when Ab was about to lose his patience.

Arutai slowly raised his head at this time, and his eyes calmly stared at Ab I in front of him.

Abu immediately said urgently: "Father, there are less than twenty people left now, and the people from the Ming Court Mansion are about to find out here, we should flee from here." ”

Arutai's brows furrowed slightly: "Abu, do we have a way to escape from Taiyuan City now?" ”

Abu only shook his head hesitantly: "No." ”

Arutai's face showed a hint of unwillingness.

"Mingren, Mingren, why do they always have such good luck.

Obviously, everything is ready, and those Ming people in Taiyuan City are also fully prepared, why can't it be done? ”

Abu was also disappointed in my heart, and I only felt that the current Daming was like a huge and boundless dark cloud, pressing on the entire grassland, making everyone breathless.

Abu only whispered, "Father, can we still have a chance to recapture the Central Plains from the hands of the Ming people?" ”

Arutai shook his head: "I can't see it...... The Ming people are no longer like two-legged sheep when they were ruled by the Great Yuan. ”

Ab took only two steps back and sat down in a chair beside him.

The father and son were silent for a long time.

Suddenly, Abu stood up again, his eyes wide.

"Father, do you still remember the original Duoyin Wendu'er's Wuliangha Thousand Households, Taizhou and other places of cowardice and compassion in thousands of households, and Gray Yi'er and other places of cowardice and mercy?"

Arutai turned his head to look at Ab Jime.

"Wuliang Ha Sanwei?"

His brow furrowed, a little confused.

The three thousand households that Ab only said were the Wuliang Ha Sanwei in Arutai's mouth, which is the famous Duoyan Sanwei.

Abu only nodded: "Yes! Since the Ming Dynasty is now in full swing, it is irresistible. Father, why can't we follow the example of the original Wuliang Ha Sanwei, surrender to the Ming Court, and join the Ming Court.

At the beginning, the Ming court accepted the three guards, but it was a lot of generous gifts.

Now that we are trapped in Taiyuan City, it is difficult to escape, why not surrender to the Ming court and bring the tribal people to join the Ming Dynasty.

According to the arrogant nature of the Ming people, it is impossible to say that his father can still be awarded the title of a prince.

How the tribe has been doing these years, my father knows best. The Ming court sent troops to recruit every year, what did the ghost force Chi Khan do?

If you can't recapture the Central Plains, why can't you vote for the Ming court. When the time comes, we will still be able to enjoy the appearance of the Central Plains. ”

Abu only continued to persuade him, and the more he spoke, his eyes widened and widened.

He felt like he had found another way.

In such a desperate situation, if you take the tribe to join the Ming Court, it is not the best way.

Arutai's eyes widened, and anger grew in his eyes.

"You want me to surrender to Akito?!"

"Do you know what you're talking about!"

He stared at Ab Yi standing in front of him.

If it weren't for the fact that the other party was his own son, if it weren't for the fact that he was also desperate right now, he would definitely kill him with his own hands.

But the anger in his heart, the unwillingness in his heart, and the pride of being an immortal heavenly citizen, made Arutai always unwilling to agree to this method.

Abu was only a little afraid.

His father's strictness in the past made Abu a little nervous.

But when I think about the current situation.

Abu still insisted and said, "This is the only way now!" If my father thinks that it is humiliating to descend to the Ming people, it is a big deal to wait for us to relax and return to the grassland, and then bring the warriors of the tribe back! ”

Looking at his father with an angry face.

Abu only said again: "Father wants to die at the hands of the Ming people now!" ”
