Wei Guan, the prefect of Suzhou, thought that the remnants of the Zhang family were named Japanese Kou, and they were menacing. When the city is closed, wait for the reinforcements sent by the imperial court to rescue. And Ru Taisu thought that his generation was willing to be thieves, and he must be mainly robbing. Now that we know that the thieves are coming, we should send a large army to annihilate them before they land. As for the city of Suzhou, only a small number of troops are needed to defend it.

The views of the two were agreed by some people, and for a while, the two groups of people insisted on their own words and disputed with each other.

Zhu Su was also frowning and pondering, and when he saw that the fourth brother Zhu Di beside him had a bright eye, he seemed to want to stop talking, so he said, "What does the fourth brother think?" ”

"Why hide it, just say it directly!"

"Ahem, then I'll be blunt." Zhu Di cleared his throat, and the eyes of everyone in the hall converged towards him. He stood up, followed Lao Zhu's usual example, put his hands behind his back, and walked in front of Ru Taisu:

"This king wants to ask Ru Yushi, you said that you want to intercept thieves on the coast."

"But my Daming coast stretches for thousands of miles, where can't the thieves land? Could it be that Ru Yushi could not predict the prophet and know in advance where the thieves would land from? ”

"You can set up wolf smoke on the shore, and the soldiers will be stationed in separate forces." Ru Taisu explained. "If you see a thief ship somewhere, you only need to light the wolf smoke, and the horses will come from all directions......"

"Nope." But it was Zhu Su who shook his head. "There are many tidal flats along the coast, and you can't go fast. Moreover, we do not yet know the reality of the enemy, and if we have to fight on the shore, we will only take advantage of the advantage of 'waiting for work at ease'. ”

"If you rashly divide the troops and join forces again when you see the wolf smoke, the soldiers will rush to the road, and even the advantage of 'waiting for work with ease' will be gone." Ru Taisu obviously doesn't understand military affairs, and anyone with a discerning eye can see this method, but it is obvious that it is just a rigid method from the north to prevent Meng Yuan from going south, and it will not work at all.

Emperor Yongle is not very broad-minded, these four brothers are deliberately targeting Lao Ru, in revenge for the old man's impeachment of him and the second brother last night......

Ru Taisu's face darkened, in all fairness, he didn't want to listen to the opinions of these teenage "hairy boys" on these military affairs. But he also understands that he really doesn't know anything about military affairs.

And the other two princes are fine, but Zhu Su, the fifth highness, is indeed a little less intelligent than his peers.

Although he is a little more stubborn......

Since he also spoke up against it, it seems that his "clever plan" really can't work.

It can only be said that although Ru Taisu has a bad temper, he is still too reliable compared to the civil officials, eunuchs and military supervisors who blindly commanded in the Ming Dynasty.

"Then sure enough, we still have to close the city and defend ourselves...... Wei Guan said.

Although Ru Taisu's face was a little ugly, he still spoke: "But how can I be sure that the thieves will definitely come to attack Suzhou?" ”

"If that Zhang Ren is captured by us and the others, it's fine. As Zhang Ren's brother, Zhang Li is reasonable, and he will inevitably come to save his brother. ”

"But now Zhang Ren is ......dead," he said, glancing at Zhu Fan and Zhu Di with some resentment.

"Can you falsely claim that Zhang Ren is captured by us and lure that Zhang Lilai to attack?" Someone suggested.

"No, it doesn't. That night, the remnants of the Zhang family also ran out of the city. Those people saw Zhang Ren's death with their own eyes. They will definitely go to Zhang Li and inform Zhang Ren of his death. Ru Taisu shook her head, and looked at Zhu Fan and Zhu Di with resentful eyes.

Zhu Fan was a little weak-hearted, Zhu Di was a little annoyed, when he and his second brother entered the city that night, they saw a group of people rushing towards them, and heard the officers and soldiers calling behind, so in a hurry, they didn't even think about it......

Thinking about it now, if Zhang Ren was really captured at that time, I don't know how much trouble I would have saved. Even if you don't get caught alive, if you deal with it well, you won't be left alive......

"Ru Yushi, don't blame my second brother and fourth brother." Zhu Su interjected. "At that time, they had just entered the city, and they didn't know the situation, and the guards must have given the first priority to protect the safety of the two princes. At least, he didn't run away from Zhang Ren, the thief. ”

"Moreover, if those widows are really controlled by Zhang Li, their whereabouts are not difficult to predict."

"Oh?" Everyone on the field was in high spirits, and Zhu Di was pleasantly surprised: "Old Five, is it the ...... in the history books"

"Ahem, did you expect all this?"

Zhu Su glanced at Zhu Di. This thing definitely thought that he was going to use the traverser's "Great Prophecy Technique" again.

Although this matter is not seen in history, it is not difficult to guess if you bring yourself into Zhang Li's perspective. He opened his mouth and said, "Dare to ask you, what are you thinking about this Chen Yu's sin after he has wasted so much energy?" ”

"What do you think?" Everyone looked at each other. This time, it was Zhu Fan who snorted and said, "Hmph, what else are you thinking?" It's nothing more than wishful thinking, wanting to restore the power of their fathers, and then fight for the world of our Ming Dynasty. ”

"What the second brother said is right." Zhu Su nodded towards Zhu Zhang. He continued, "This is the difference between them and ordinary pirates. Ordinary widows are only for money, but they are fantasizing about restoring the glory of their ancestors. ”

"Although those people are stupid, even the three-year-old children on the street know that if they want to fight for the world, can they have a city where there is no trouble?"

"If it's just like those ordinary widows, a gust of wind comes, and a gust of wind goes. What's the use of looting a huge amount of wealth? ”

"However, now that Zhang Ren is dead, they have disrupted my Suzhou Mansion City, and their plan to cooperate with the outside has failed...... Will they still come to attack Suzhou Mansion? Ru Taisu said.

"Maybe it's not Suzhou Mansion, but he, Zhang Li, will definitely not just loot, he must come to fight a city." Before Zhu Su could speak, Zhu Di over there had already taken over thoughtfully.

"There are three reasons: first, that Zhang Li is just the second son, and now that Zhang Ren is dead, he should be the one who wants to provoke the Zhang family."

"In this case, he must first avenge his brother, or make some meritorious deeds that can serve the public, otherwise how can he serve the public?"

"Second, since the Zhang family wanted to take Suzhou before, the troops required must be a lot. These troops, relying only on the family foundation left by Zhang Shicheng, I am afraid that it is not enough. ”

Then they must borrow the power of others...... In my opinion, it is likely that they gathered other bands of thieves and robbers to take the city together. In this case, he must promise the thieves enough benefits. In addition to seizing the city and plundering some small markets and towns, where is such a small profit enough for them to talk to other thieves? ”

"Third...... They are now poor. The young Zhu Di sat on the chair with his butt and crossed one of his legs. A pair of eyes flashed: "Zhang Ren is dead, his plan is broken, it can be said that there is no other way now." ”

"If I were to give him a gift, at this time, I would definitely make a lone bet. If it succeeds, if it can gain a firm foothold in the next city, the situation will naturally open, and all the previous failures will become a thing of the past. ”

"If you fail, it is just hopeless, and you will also suffer death. But if they don't do it at this time, they will definitely have no chance later: now they can barely gather an army. When the news of Zhang Ren's death and the uprooting of the hidden forces in Suzhou City spread, how many people were willing to do it with their heads under the panic of the people? ”

"Old Five, am I right?" Zhu Di finished talking, and suddenly turned his head to ask Zhu Su.

“…… Right. Zhu Su nodded in approval. It's just that I always feel a little weird in my heart.

Are you Zhu Di talking about Zhang Ren? How do you sound like you're talking about yourself at the time of the martyrdom?
