The day before the Yan army arrived at Longtan, the people on the periphery of Yingtian City were moved into the inner city one after another, and the Beijing army strictly guarded the thirteen city gates, not even a fly was allowed to enter.

It was the scorching summer, and the people in the city were crowded under the trees, arranged by the Beijing army, and hid in the inner city with their burdens.

The people had not yet settled, and the young and middle-aged men between the ages of fifteen and thirty were forcibly monitored by the Beijing army and went to the outer city to demolish the houses of the people, and the bricks and stones were transported into the inner city one after another.

"Hurry the, inkblot!" Officers and soldiers waved whips, urging the coolies to be sharper in their hands and feet.

The stone slabs in the city were hot, the people's straw shoes were hot, and the bricks and stones were sweating under the scorching sun, and many people suffered from heat stroke and fainted in the grass by the roadside.

No one cares about this matter, after all, the Yan army has been operating dozens of miles away, and the officers and soldiers are afraid that the Yan army will rush in.

Many young laborers who had died of heat stroke were dragged to the outer city by the officers and soldiers in ox carts, and when the wind blew, the dust covered the peasants' backs.

The people looked at the demolished houses and the smashed shops of the merchants, but they could only sigh silently, and they didn't even dare to scold.

Some of the people did not enter the inner city, they packed up their belongings and ran to other cities to escape the disaster.

King Yan, the victim of Jinan Mansion, was not embarrassed, and now everyone knows that King Yan's purpose is to get rid of the traitors in Tiancheng, and the people are not afraid, so they flee out of the city one after another.

Liu Dazhui and the others deliberately carried their burdens and dangled around the officers and soldiers, and several officers and soldiers came over to ask them what they were doing.

He was forced by the officers and soldiers to take knives into the inner city, and said to them: "The swallow thief is here, but he wants to eat your meat, go into the city and hide." ”

Liu Dazhui said with a bitter face: "Is it okay if we don't go into the inner city?" ”

"Huh?" The officers and soldiers drew the knives in their hands: "There is an order today, go back to defend the city!" ”

Liu Dazhui and a few brothers from the Axe Gang looked at the officers and soldiers, and followed in with a daze.

The city was full of people, crowded and chaotic, and Liu Dazhui took the opportunity to blend into the crowd and disappear.

Near Longtan, there is a teahouse.

Zhu Di sat at the table drinking tea, looked at the mountains and rivers in the south of the Yangtze River, and said to Cheng Yuan: "I didn't come when my father left, but this time I came, but this Yingtian City has changed." ”

Zhu Neng and Zhang Yu squatted in front of the earthen stove in front of the teashed to boil water, choking on the smoke and coughing, the owner of the teahouse had gone to other prefectures, leaving an empty teahouse.

"Lord Wang, how do you feel today?" Cheng Yuan poured a bowl of tea, poured it in and looked at Zhu Di.

"This king didn't expect that the war that had been fought for many years would end in less than two years, and you should remind me all the way south, otherwise this king will return to Beiping after a few fights, and the time will be delayed."

Today, they finally killed under Yingtian City, the overall situation is about to be decided, and the Yan army is full of momentum, just waiting to attack the city.

Not far away, dozens of Yan army flags were hunted by the wind, the camp tents were connected, and the momentum was also extremely powerful, so that the soldiers at the head of Yingtian City did not dare to look directly.

"Lord Wang, do you want to be the emperor!" Cheng Yuan is straightforward and exciting.

Zhu Di was stunned, looked at Cheng Yuan and had nothing to hide, and said: "I think, I thought about it in my dream before, and this time I want to think about it in the blue sky and daylight." ”

Like Zhu Yuanzhang, he does not hide his inner desires at all, and even kills people without finding a reason to directly admit his heart.

Cheng Yuan shook his head: "Lord, it's not enough to be an emperor, we have to create a genuine and prosperous world, and create a tomorrow!" ”

"My wish is to hope that the people of the Ming Dynasty can have enough to eat, and the Ming soldiers will walk all over the north and south of the world to see the other side of the sea."

Cheng Yuan said with a smile.

Zhu Di bathed and changed his clothes in the teahouse, changed into his vassal king clothes, wore a black Yishan crown, wore a vermilion python dragon robe, with a cross-collar and narrow sleeves, and a jade belt around his waist, and was ready to inspect the Yan army under the gaze of the generals.

Later, Zhu Neng and Xu Zengshou sent a cyan brocade robe, and also a black crown hat, with a disc collar and narrow sleeves, and a belt also chosen by Zhu Di, which fits very well.

When Cheng Yuan wondered how this dress fit so well, Zhu Di glanced at it and said, "My family An Cheng made it for you, can it fit?" ”

"Cheng Yuan, if this king ascends the throne, in the future, only you can wear a cyan moire brocade robe, and whoever dares to transgress the courtesy, I will be cut off for the crime of rebellion."

"Thank you, Lord Wang!" Cheng Yuan looked at the clothes on his body, the cloud pattern embroidered with silver thread, with the azure color, was very powerful.

"This is the honor that this king has given you."

Zhongshan is like a crouching tiger coiling dragon, the mighty river flows eastward from under the Jinchuan Gate, Zhu Di rides a war horse, and the vermilion python dragon robe is blown by the wind.

Cheng Yuan's moire brocade clothes, the war horse under his crotch is still the green arrow, and he is in front of the army with Zhu Di.

Xu Zengshou, Zhu Gaoxu, Zhu Gaosui, Zhu Bai, Zhu Quan, Zhu Neng, Zhang Yu, Yuan Rong, Li Rang, Qiu Fu, Gu Cheng, Zhang Bao, Zhang Xin and other generals were also behind.

The three guards are alone in the west, arranged in a horse formation.

Everywhere everyone looks, is the heart of the Ming Dynasty, these days, the heavy snow in Beiping City, the outside of Daning, the refugees in Dezhou and Jinan, the victory in Dongchang City, Pei County......

From the slashed prince step by step to the Ming Yingtian City, Zhu Di glanced at Cheng Yuan and the soldiers behind him, and said: "This king can have today's victory, you follow me, the imperial court army did not block us, the Yangtze River did not block it, and this Ying Tiancheng could not stop it!" ”

……………………

Ying Tiancheng, the military generals of Wenchen are like panicked ants, their hearts are like fire, at this moment, no one will believe that the court wins.

The capital is strong, but no matter how strong the city wall is, people have to defend it, Zhu Yunwen doesn't know who else can be asked to fight Zhu Di to the death, even if he is in the city, he can't boost the morale of the three armies.

The talented Xie Jin and Hu Jing touched their wine glasses and said, "Come, drink." ”

Many talented literati sat together, and they all thought that Jinling City could not be defended, and the happiest should be Hu Guang.

Hu Guangdao: "Whether this Ying Tiancheng can be defended or not, the Ming Dynasty or the Ming Dynasty, Jianwen and King Yan are the same as the Son of Heaven, they are all descendants of the first emperor."

If King Yan becomes the emperor, he will always need people to govern the world for him, and we didn't follow Huang Zicheng and they advocated cutting Tibet, and the dozens of people that King Yan threatened to kill didn't have the name of me Hu Guang and you Xie Jin, what are you afraid of. ”

Xie Jin shook his head, he didn't have a good impression of Jianwen in his heart, he was sent to the far north, it was Jianwen, the dog emperor, and now that he has returned to Jiangnan, he encountered King Yan's attack on Yingtian.

He doesn't care, he is full of talent and learning, and he doesn't want to use Jianwen with ambitions, Xie Jin firmly believes that his talent Emperor Jianwen can't play.

And big and small things, even the edict was done by Fang Xiaoru for Jianwen, and Scholar Fang is still engaged in Zhou Li, and many civil officials do not agree.

……………………

At this time, there was another person, that was Li Jinglong, who was crying after drinking some wine, and he pulled Yang Xianzhi to scold Zhu Yunwen.

"Huang Zicheng, Fang Xiaoru, this dog thing is really too deceitful, they said to kill me today, do you know that the five horses are divided, Brother Yang Xian, these people are too ruthless."

Li Jinglong poured his wine.

Yang Xianzhi said: "I heard it, Cao Guogong is really pitiful." ”

"I don't want to die, I have to find a way, Brother Yang Xian, the girl you gave me is really fascinated by me, I remember your goodness."

But the Yan army has already arrived outside the city, and the capital will undoubtedly be broken. Li Jinglong sighed: "King Yan will definitely not let me go." ”

"Not necessarily! It's man-made, maybe you can be a high-ranking official. "Yang Xian's way.
