Chapter 527: Is It Diehard or Foolish?

Zhu Zhanyan didn't come with his son this time.

Before King Wu withdrew from Shuntian Mansion, it was not only because Zhu Zhanyan was advancing by retreating, but also because he didn't want to continue to work hard in this situation where the benefits were small and the risks were high.

Anyway, he still has time, take a step back and let go of Sun Ruowei and Zhu Qizhen, anyway, he knows how narrow the vision of this girl is, and when the time comes, he just needs to wait for the last to come and pick up the ready-made.

Even if things are unexpected and Zhu Qizhen becomes a talent, Zhu Zhanyan can still firmly control the areas south of Yunnan and even south of Liangguang.

These places are important now that the Xiaoice Age is approaching.

However, now that the facts have proved that Zhu Qizhen is still the mud that can't support the wall, Zhu Zhanzhen will not be polite in the slightest.

This time, he brought Chen Xun and Xia Xuan and others over, and the people he took out of Shuntian Mansion back then are either coming back directly, or they are like Xia Xuan who inherited his father Xia Yuanji's position and returned on behalf of his father.

In just three days, Zhu Zhanyan returned to the Shuntian Mansion, and almost all the people in the entire court were replaced, Xiao Weizhen, Xu Youzhen and other people promoted by Sun Ruowei were all replaced, and those who were tainted were directly brought to justice.

After confirming that Chen Xun and the others had firmly controlled Shuntianfu as they did back then, Zhu Zhanyan set off again and led his army in the direction of Ningxia Zhongwei.

This time, he won't miss it again.

Back then, Zhu Gaoxu said that he was lazy, that he was unfounded, and some people even said that he wanted to be the emperor and didn't want to have a bad reputation.

For these comments, Zhu Zhanyan chose to laugh it off.

In Zhu Zhan's view, his achievements are already very high, so high that most people in this world can't reach it in their lifetime.

It's not that he can't go further, but if he chooses to go further, it will inevitably have some bad effects on him, so there is no need.

However, it was all based on the fact that it was up to him to fight for it, but if everything was like now, and the opportunities were forced into his hands, then why not choose to go further?

……

"Zhu Ling, where are you?"

When thinking of this, Zhu Zhanyan was a little irritable, and couldn't help but open the curtain of the carriage and ask outside.

"His Royal Highness Hui Shizi, we have already arrived in Taiyuan Mansion, and then as long as we go south to Pingyang Mansion and cross the Yellow River from the ferry port of Pingyang Mansion, we will be able to see Yan'an Mansion."

Zhu Zhanyan nodded when he heard this.

When you arrive at Yan'an Mansion, it is equivalent to arriving at the door of Ningxia Zhongwei, and at that time, you can't just patronize and bury your head in the road, you have to be vigilant and prepare for war at all times.

Merely......

"Zhu Ping? Where's your brother? Only then did Zhu Zhanyan react, and the person who replied was not Zhu Ling, but Zhu Ping.

"Back to His Royal Highness, my brother went to the front, and he was not very relieved." Zhu Ping replied with his head down.

"You also know that according to the information obtained by the imperial court, the imperial army's army has almost been wiped out, and the imperial court's weapons are also very likely to fall into the hands of the enemy."

"It's nothing else, but when we left Shuntian Mansion back then, there were still a batch of white phosphorous eggs that had not been made by the Military Bureau and the Ordnance Bureau, and they were finally taken over by the imperial court."

"Since then, the imperial court has not been at war, nor has it used this batch of weapons, if this batch of weapons is brought this time, it is very likely that it will also fall into the hands of the enemy, and then I am afraid that Ningxia Zhongwei will not last long."

"If the Ningxia Central Guard is lost, then we will have to reconnoiter the enemy situation in advance when we cross the Yellow River in Yan'an Mansion or even in Pingyang Mansion."

"My brother is worried that the soldiers of Xiangzhou Mansion have not fought any decent battles over the years, and the enemy this time is the grassland that has been pressed by our Ming Dynasty for nearly forty years, I am afraid that the soldiers will take it lightly and there will be problems."

Zhu Zhanyan nodded slightly when he heard this.

Indeed, he knew about the batch of white phosphorous eggs left in Shuntian Mansion back then, because this batch of white phosphorous eggs was specially left by him.

When King Wu evacuated Shuntian, Zhu Zhan sent people to take away all the craftsmen of the War Bureau and the Ordnance Bureau, and left a batch of semi-finished white phosphorous eggs to the imperial court.

It is said to be a semi-finished product, but in fact it is almost assembled.

This can be regarded as a little compassion on Zhu Zhanyan's part, if he can, he actually doesn't want the civil engineering change and the defense of the capital division to happen, because then the damage to Da Ming will be a little great.

But as it turns out, you can never put your hopes in a lump of mud.

But fortunately, Zhu Zhanyan still had a heart, and all he left was white phosphorus eggs.

Although the white phosphosphere egg is a big killer of war, it is useless for the grassland, because there is almost no phosphate ore in the grassland, and the phosphate ore of the flower growers in later generations is mainly in Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan, Hubei and other places, which occupy more than 96% of the phosphate mineral value of the flower planters.

Therefore, even if the white phosphorol is in the hands of the grassland, it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice.

Thinking of this, Zhu Zhanyan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Ningxia Zhongwei lost it, and the defeat so far will not have much impact on the Ming Dynasty, at least it will not affect the final trend of the war.

At the very least, the imperial court may not be Warat's opponent, but it will not.

However, what Zhu Zhanyan didn't know was that he still missed one thing this time, but he missed this thing...... Actually, he can't be blamed.

……

Ningxia Zhongwei.

Zhu Zhanyan probably couldn't have imagined that Zhu Ling, who was in Zhu Ping's mouth and went to the front to investigate, had actually reached the edge of Ningxia Zhongwei.

Here, there is a distance of thousands of miles from Zhu Zhan's army!

And the reason why Zhu Ling was able to arrive here when the army was only around Taiyuan Mansion was not only to advance at the fastest speed and recklessly, but also because he set off earlier than the army.

Even Zhu Zhanyan didn't pay attention, when he entered the Shuntian Mansion and entered the palace, dealing with the officials promoted by Sun Ruowei, and helping Chen Xun and them to regain control of the cabinet and the six ministries, Zhu Ling had already set off.

For more than 30 years, Zhu Ling and Zhu Ping have been Zhu Zhan's guards since childhood, and they are two people that Zhu Zhanyan can trust without reservation, so when he was in the palace, Zhu Zhanyan didn't think too much when he found out that Zhu Ling was not there.

Even, Zhu Ping revealed a lot of flaws when he was covering for Zhu Ling, and Zhu Zhanyan also found that something was wrong, but he didn't care.

Because in his heart, Zhu Ling and Zhu Ping are always credible.

……

Zhu Ling took a deep breath and watched the dust in his field of vision grow from far to near, but he still didn't make any movement.

Not only Zhu Ling, but also the more than ten princely guards behind Zhu Ling.

"Who's coming?"

The scout of Warat grabbed the reins and asked aloud.

Zhu Ling tugged on the reins and said loudly: "The prince of the Ming Dynasty is coming!" Let your master come out! ”

……

A short sentence made the Warat scout in front of him lose his voice.

Zhu Zhan's name, until now, is still easy to use.

Seeing the Warat scout surround himself and the others very vigilantly, and watching the person who opened his mouth pull the reins and turn the horse's head, and immediately turned back to report the news, Zhu Ling's face showed a smile.

"Brothers......" Zhu Ling looked into the distance and said without looking back.

"The feng shui here is good, we ...... Here it is! ”

"Good!"

The more than ten princely guards behind Zhu Ling spoke at the same time, although there were only more than ten people, but their voices soared into the sky, frightening the Warat soldiers who surrounded them to lose their minds.
