Chapter 4 All parties are guilty, and sin is bowing
In just half an hour, the army had been assembled.
Zhu Qizhen stepped forward immediately, raised his eyes, and saw that 80,000 soldiers were neatly lined up in the gust of wind, waiting for the order to attack.
Standing in the front row are the commanders of the battalions, British Gong Zhang Fu, Taining Hou Chen Ying, Pingxiang Bo Chen Huai, Xiangcheng Bo Li Zhen, Sui An Bo Chen Xun, Xiu Wu Bo Shen Rong......
This expedition, a total of 52 Wenchen military generals accompanied, most of these people had followed Emperor Taizong and Emperor Xuanzong to conquer Annan and conquer Mobei, and repeatedly made military exploits, which can be said to be the mainstay of the entire Ming Dynasty.
What is surprising is that such a strong lineup has completely failed!
It is said that Wang Zhen misled the country, could it be that Zhu Qizhen played a good hand of cards and could get rid of it?
Although the second emperor Renxuan reigned for only ten years, in the past ten years, the whole country has recuperated and recuperated, and the national strength consumed by the southern and northern wars during the Yongle period has been restored, and it is a strong Ming dynasty that has been handed over to Zhu Qizhen.
There is food to be eaten, soldiers to be served, generals to be generals, and the firearms unit of the Mongolian cavalry, such as the Shenji Battalion.
However, the outcome of this battle was that the main force of the three battalions with a total of 200,000 troops was wiped out overnight, the emperor was captured, and the door was called everywhere.
Zhu Qizhen closed his eyes and thought silently in his heart, if it was just a dream, it was time to wake up!
The north wind hunts, blowing on the cheeks, like a knife cutting a needle, and it feels real and intense.
This is not a dream, I am the orthodox emperor Zhu Qizhen, the shame of the Ming Dynasty......
No!
I don't want to be a doorman!
Since God has given you a chance to start all over again, history must not repeat itself!
Zhu Qizhen's eyes were resolute, and he slowly pulled out the dragon pattern sword at his waist and held it high above the top.
The soldiers immediately quieted down, and 80,000 pairs of eyes stared at the emperor in front of the battle, this time the Northern Expedition suffered defeats one after another, and there were only two words in everyone's hearts, womb!
I thought that the emperor's personal expedition would be majestic and powerful, but I didn't expect that I didn't even see the shadow of the emperor along the way, and even the battle orders were issued by a eunuch.
Of the 200,000 people, only 80,000 remained, nesting in the mountains of Tumubao, and the water source was cut off by the Warats, and all of them had chapped lips, so they could only lick them constantly to relieve their body's thirst.
"Soldiers!"
With Zhu Qizhen shouting, everyone raised their spirits, and the emperor personally went into battle to supervise the battle, which undoubtedly rekindled the hope of the soldiers.
"I am your emperor, today, under the banner of the Ming Dynasty, under the illumination of the sun, moon, mountains and rivers, I will fight to the death with the main force of the enemy army with you!"
The scene was surprisingly quiet, except for the echo of his own shouting, only the whistling wind.
"I know that you are aggrieved in your hearts, because you have suffered a lot of defeats along the way, and this is my dereliction of duty!"
The British public Zhang Fu's expression changed, and he hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, please kill the traitor Wang Zhen with the heart of the army!" ”
At this time, even if the emperor is wrong, he can't be wrong!
The war is imminent, and the image of the boss directly affects every soldier, so the fault can only be Wang Zhen!
Immediately afterwards, Kuang Yu, the secretary of the Ministry of War, Chen Ying, the Marquis of Taining, and others petitioned one after another: "Please kill Wang Zhen!" ”
The military attaches present all hated these dead eunuchs and began to shout: "Kill Wang Zhen!" Kill Wang Zhen! ”
Seeing that the emotions of the soldiers were high, Zhu Qizhen pointed forward with his sword.
"Take Wang Zhen!"
Fan Zhong had already prepared, and with a wave of his hand, the two guards carried Wang Zhen to the front of the formation, and threw him to the ground, Wang Zhen fell directly to the ground, trembling all over.
He knew that his time of death was coming, and he wanted to beg for mercy, but he felt that his teeth kept chattering, and he couldn't say a word.
But why?
The emperor also asked himself yesterday for advice on the trend of the war situation and coping strategies, and accepted his proposal, and promised to negotiate peace with him first, why did he wake up and suddenly change his temperament?
Why, exactly......
Zhu Qizhen pointed at Wang Zhen with his sword and said slowly: "I believe Wang Zhen's slander, causing 120,000 soldiers to lose their lives. ”
With that, he suddenly stretched out his left hand and pulled a strand of hair from his forehead, then raised his right hand.
"Your Majesty, no!"
Zhang Fuzheng wanted to dissuade him, but saw that Zhu Qizhen had already raised his knife in his hand, pinching a strand of broken hair fluttering in the wind.
"Today, I cut my hair and act as the head, and I encourage you all!"
Since the Han Dynasty, Confucianism has become the mainstream, and Confucianism pays attention to the body hair and skin, the parents who receive it, dare not destroy it, and the beginning of filial piety.
Sure enough, when the soldiers saw the emperor's will, they were shocked.
At this moment, the emperor in their eyes is no longer the willful young man who is ignorant of the world before, but a real emperor, responsible, courageous, and even many veterans have re-felt the determination and momentum of Emperor Taizong to sweep Mobei before he set out.
Zhu Qizhen slowly let go of his hand, and his broken hair disappeared into the wind.
"Before sunset today, many people will die in battle, are you afraid?"
The morale of the soldiers was high, and they shouted in unison: "Don't be afraid! ”
Zhu Qizhen's eyes were like torches, and he said loudly: "My last will, if you see me fall off the horse, don't be sad, don't stop charging, follow the military flag closely, fight bravely to kill the enemy, and swear to die!" ”
"Swear to the death!"
"Swear to the death!"
"Swear to the death!"
The chorus of 80,000 soldiers echoed in the valley, and the aftermath continued.
"Today, I will use the blood of traitors to comfort the loyal souls of the Ming Dynasty who died in battle!"
The soldiers' mood was already extremely excited, and they roared like wild beasts: "Kill! ”
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
Fan Zhong's eyes were full of excitement, and he personally operated the knife, and with a click, Wang Zhenren's head fell to the ground.
The first generation of eunuchs in the Ming Dynasty came to an end.
Zhu Qizhen raised the sword in his hand again and gave the last command.
"Listen to my orders, the whole army will attack!"
The army of 80,000 attacked like a tide in the direction of the Fushui River.
Zhu Qizhen took the lead, and the dragon flag fluttered behind him.
Once upon a time, this dragon flag expedition to Mobei, all the way to the bank of the difficult river, the Mongols all fled in despair.
Today, let this banner revive the glory of our ancestors!
…………
The army was in such a hurry that the camp had no time to be dismantled, so it was simply left behind.
In a small, inconspicuous tent, there was a man huddled in a corner, shivering.
Hearing the footsteps outside fade away, he came out trembling and looked around, where the camp was already empty except for himself.
This person is Wang Zhen's most proud godson, the second person in the ceremonial supervisor, Wang Xi.
Wang Xi's real name is Ning Xi, in terms of age, he is more than ten years older than Wang Zhen, and he entered the palace earlier than Wang Zhen, but to do a good job in the promising profession of eunuch, the most important thing is to be shameless.
Today's situation really scared him.
Even Wang Zhen, a powerful eunuch who covered the sky with one hand, was killed with just one sentence, and his fate can be imagined.
The capital must not be able to go back, think about it, it is better to go to the first place, read that you have contributed to providing information, maybe you can also reward an official and a half-position.
After making up his mind, he tried to find his way and fled westward.
