Chapter 485: This Little Beast

Darza was a little panicked at the moment, because Zhu Jinghong was rapidly approaching.

Zhu Jinghong brought a number of dead and wounded wherever he went, and it seemed that the trajectory was coming at him, how could Darza not feel worried.

Seeing that the army was already dispersing, although Darza was unwilling, he also knew that it was time to make a decision, whether to hold on to himself or withdraw immediately.

Darza was very entangled, he had lost so many people this time, and he would have no face to lead the troops if he returned in vain.

"Kill ...... me"

Apparently Darza was still going to give it a go, and he still had unrealistic illusions about victory, a state of mind that could become paranoid.

"Lord Wanhu, the Ming army has arrived, please withdraw quickly!" Darza was reminded by someone's side.

"I'm going to be afraid of him? Rush with me! Darza roared.

"Thirteenth Master, the other side is rushing over!" Zhang Zhongxiang yelled.

"The commander of the enemy army, it's a good time...... Capture the flag with me! Zhu Jinghong shouted.

From the beginning of the rush to the present, he has killed many people, and because of his super force value, he has been ignoring dishes throughout the whole process.

This feeling is similar to his previous life playing "riding and chopping", but now the effect is better, so he has more fun.

He slashed down a few more people with his sword, and he was able to pass the crowd and see Darza's face in front of him.

I saw him draw a spear from the ground and throw it at the opposite side with all his might.

The galloping spear made Darza hurriedly dodge sideways.

It was also thanks to his timely dodge that he was able to get the spear past his shoulder, and if he had almost been pierced.

However, as soon as this danger passed, another rush came head-on.

Zhu Jinghong's tall and mighty figure made Darza involuntarily afraid, but he still mustered up the courage to face the battle.

"Die ......"

This sentence was shouted out by Darza, but the next moment, he was pierced by Zhu Jinghong with a riding gun.

That's right, even Darza was wearing heavy armor, and under the impact of Zhu Jinghong's huge force, he died completely after he shouted the last two words.

And as Zhu Jinghong stabbed Darza to death, the guards who rushed with him also began to clean up Darza's guards.

After a few breaths, Darza's flag fell, and a chain reaction ensued.

The Dzungar army began to break and flee one after another, and in such a tragic situation of casualties, even the Overseer team could not stop them.

What's more, the Dzungar overseers, when they saw the banner falling, they themselves were already unstable.

The situation of the battle immediately took a sudden turn, and more and more people fled from the Dzungar army, which finally caused the collapse of the entire front.

"My lord, the enemy army has broken ......"

"Pass my general order, and the whole army will pursue!" Fan Changchun shouted, this is to expand the results.

Chasing them will have the greatest damage when the enemy is fleeing, but be careful not to chase them too far.

Fan Changchun knew that his subordinates understood, so he didn't go with him, but turned around and rushed to Zhu Jinghong's place.

He wants to confirm whether this master is injured as soon as possible, which is much more important than expanding the results of the battle.

When Fan Changchun arrived, Zhu Jinghong was already waiting for him in the same place, and under his horse was the dead Darza, and the spear was still stuck in his body.

Seeing that Darza died so tragically, Fan Changchun felt sorry for this enemy for two seconds, and then jumped off his horse and ran in front of Zhu Jinghong.

"Thirteenth Master, you're okay!"

Taking off the blood-stained iron, Zhu Jinghong reached out and held the riding spear, picked Darza together, and then shook his hand and threw it to the ground.

"I'm so good!" Zhu Jinghong smiled.

…………

When the time came to the afternoon, the left and right divisions of the Ming army had come close together, forming a huge cavalry corps.

If the Dzungars did not press up with all their troops, it would be difficult to pose a threat to the Ming army, so the critical situation was alleviated.

At least today, the possibility of a large-scale battle breaking out is unlikely, but the Ming army has not relaxed in the slightest, and all departments are on high alert.

On the Junggar side, the vanguard army was crippled, and thousands of households were killed, which dealt a heavy blow to morale.

This made the commander of the army, Zero, very angry, but the main person responsible, Darza, was dead, and his anger could only burn himself.

As a qualified general, Zero quickly controlled his emotions and ordered all his ministries to rest on the spot, and at the same time recruited all the generals to his tent to discuss matters.

If this decisive battle is not fought, how can it be fought...... Decisions need to be made based on the existing facts, and Zero also needs to listen to the opinions of his subordinates.

On their side, they were deliberating, and on the other side of the Ming army, Zhu Jinghong also convened the generals to discuss the matter.

At this moment, the generals of all the ministries had already arrived, and they were privately whispering about the morning's battle.

And one of the hottest topics is Zhu Jinghong's legendary record of taking the lead, leading the guards to charge in person, and stabbing the opponent's 10,000 households with one shot.

In fact, when it comes to the level of general or commander, there is very little behavior of personally charging, and Fan Changchun is forced by the situation to fight today.

But what is Zhu Jinghong's identity, such a noble person as him, he actually carried a gun to fight on the battlefield, which is definitely a very rare miracle.

It's just a matter of killing the enemy in battle, Zhu Jinghong also achieved a very outrageous record, in addition to killing Darza with his own hands, there were hundreds of enemy soldiers who died under him.

stabbing people neatly and neatly, this is what Zhu Jinghong can do, so it is easy to count his records.

Therefore, at this time, none of the generals present disagreed with this master, admiring his courage in going into battle to kill the enemy, and appreciating his courage in seizing the opportunity to turn things around.

The generals all have such a mentality, and the soldiers and officers at the bottom are even more full of reverence for Zhu Jinghong.

Originally, he was very popular, but as this matter spread, he will only gain more military support.

"The Thirteenth Master Arrives ......"

With a shout outside the tent, the discussion inside the tent stopped abruptly, and everyone stood up one after another, and their eyes swept to the door of the military formation.

Zhu Jinghong has changed his armor, and at this moment he is wearing a black embroidered dragon round-necked robe, showing his majesty in simplicity.

Behind him, followed by Fan Changchun, the commander of Zhenwei Zhongwei, Yang Longshan, the commander of Qinghai Xingdu, and Zhou Quanhui, the commander of Anxi Xingdu.

"See the Thirteenth Master!"

"Hmm...... Everyone, please rise! Zhu Jinghong said in a calm tone.

Although everyone was as deferential as ever, Zhu Jinghong still felt a little different from the past.

Returning to the main seat, Zhu Jinghong motioned for everyone to sit down, and said, "Everyone...... The morning is not over yet, so let's move on! ”

How to distribute the forces and how to alternate the retreat after that really still need to be discussed.

Ye Hemingen of the Jurchen Department below got up and asked, "Thirteenth Master, now that our army has won a big victory, do you want to retreat?" ”

Originally, he was quite panicked before, but now that he has won such a big victory, he feels that he can touch the Dzungars.

And Ye Hemingen's question also asked the voices of many generals.

Of course, these people did not want to encounter the Dzungars, but felt that they could continue to confront them, and tried not to retreat if they could.

After all, no matter what the reason, there is a risk of punishment for retreating, not to mention that there is a big victory now.

"Ladies and gentlemen...... Could it be that all the departments under your jurisdiction are as brave as Zhenwei Zhongwei? ”

Just one sentence choked everyone.

"The victory in the morning can't change the situation that the enemy is strong and I am weak, so it is naturally better to withdraw later!"

"The minister's words!" Ye Hemingen immediately pleaded guilty.

And Zhu Jinghong just waved his hand and motioned for him to sit back in his position.

After about half an hour of deliberating, all the matters were finally agreed.

After the assembly, the orders have been issued, and it stands to reason that this time should be dispersed.

However, Zhu Jinghong didn't speak, and everyone had to sit and wait.

"Previously, Governor Ning had ordered Anxi to go south, but until now they are still trapped in Zasak and other ...... of the Three Kingdoms."

"I mean, cancel Governor Ning's previous military order, and the Anxi Xingdu Division is still focused on pacifying Zasak and other countries!"

"What do you think?" Zhu Jinghong's gaze swept towards everyone.

The main reason for letting Wang Ziteng continue to pacify Zasak is that it is impossible for him to join forces, and secondly, to serve Zhu Jinghong's thousand-mile battle.

If the prince stabilized Zasak and other states, especially the Tushetu Khanate, he would be able to provide a stable flank for his strategy of turning the war, and in this way, he would be able to deliver a steady stream of supplies.

From this point of view, on the contrary, the main force of the Northwest Army moved north to achieve the result of a joint attack by the divisions.

Everyone did not object, which was equivalent to recognition, so Zhu Jinghong didn't ask more.

"General Zhou......" Zhu Jinghong's gaze swept towards Zhou Quanhui.

"The minister is here!" Zhou Quanhui hurriedly got up.

"In this matter, you personally go and tell Wang Ziteng, so that he must stabilize the situation and focus on the counterinsurgency on the Tushetu Khanate!"

"Thirteenth Master, if the minister leaves, the northern front departments ......" Zhou Quanhui grasped the crux of the problem.

The northern front tribes, mainly the Mongol and Jurchen tribes, combined with nearly 15,000 troops, are now under the command of Zhou Quanhui.

"The words of the northern line ......" Zhu Jinghong made a thinking appearance, but he actually had a plan in his heart.

"Let Sun Shaozu keep an eye on the northern line!"

Zhu Jinghong's words surprised everyone at the scene, after all, this Sun Shaozu is just an idle job now, how can he be directly placed in such a high position.

Even Sun Shaozu himself, who was in attendance, felt that this matter was too outrageous.

He does have merit, and it is a great credit for bringing Zhu Jinghong to power.

But these are things that cannot be seen, and if you really want to talk about it, you will not only be treasonous, but you will also be cut off from the noble group, and no one will be able to protect him.

Even Zhu Jinghong, who benefited the most, would draw a line with him as soon as possible, and even directly execute him.

Every time he thought of this, Sun Shaozu tossed and turned, only to feel a chill in his back.

Today, I was promoted several levels in a row because my ability was recognized...... Sun Shaozu thought secretly.

Although he really wanted to get this position, Sun Shaozu knew that he should be humble.

However, before he could leave, Zhu Jinghong continued: "He was originally the commander of Yongningwei, the capital of Anxi, who had been at the forefront for many years, and knew Dzungar well......

"Let him command several armies on the northern front, I think it is more than enough!"

Zhu Jinghong withdrew his smile and swept his gaze to everyone present: "What do you think?" ”

Everyone lowered their heads, but it was Ye He Mingen of the Jurchen Department who spoke: "What the Thirteenth Master says, the ministers and other countries just listen to it, why do you need to ask these words!" ”

His remarks attracted a response from Su and several people, but instead formed a situation of "approval".

"General Zhou, what do you think?" Zhu Jinghong looked at Zhou Quanhui.

If you want to take people away after dismissal, to be honest, Zhu Jinghong is really not very kind.

"Command!" Zhou Quanhui was helpless.

"After you go back, you tell Wang Ziteng, just say my words...... It's up to you to lead the troops to pacify the Tushetu Khanate! ”

This can be regarded as a stick to give a sweet date, Zhou Quanhui knows Zhu Jinghong's grand strategy, so he understands the important role of pacifying Tuxietu.

If this matter is done well, it will also be a great contribution of his Zhou Quanhui, provided that Zhu Jinghong's strategy can be effectively implemented.

"The ministers will live up to the trust of the Thirteenth Master!"

Nodding, Zhu Jinghong looked at Sun Shaozu again, and then called him by name.

Sun Shaozu came out in response, and then stood in front of Zhu Jinghong with his waist hooked.

"From now on, you will take over the command of Zhou Duzhi!"

"Command!" Sun Shaozu bowed respectfully.

His previous highest substantive position was only the commander of the first guard, and he was two levels behind Zhou Quanhui.

When he reached the senior military attaché, it was difficult to be promoted at every level, but he Sun Shaozu was promoted two levels in a row, which made him more determined to hug his thighs.

At this time, he also knew very well that although he was being promoted two levels in a row at the moment, in essence, he was only relying on Zhu Jinghong's promotion, which was a temporary expedient measure.

If he wants to really sit in a firm position and get the approval of the imperial court, he has to fight a few beautiful battles.

"Today's deliberations, that's the end of it, let's disperse!"

So everyone left one after another and began to implement Zhu Jinghong's strategy.

…………

On August 18, the capital was banned.

In Kunning Palace, the emperor and queen are dining, enjoying the peace between the husband and wife.

"By the way, do you remember the incident in the Jia family?"

"Hmm!" Zhu Xianming responded.

"The child has recovered, and the Jia family has expelled him from the house, so they are still knowledgeable!" Yang Qingyin said calmly.

The "child" she is talking about is Jia Baoyu, who was really beaten so badly that he could only go to the ground for a month.

When the incident first happened, although the East Palace and the Xiangwang Mansion were suppressed, they were still informed by the Rui Wangfu, and there was a lot of turmoil later.

Ning Rong's second mansion had no choice but to go outside the Qianqing gate to ask for guilt, and Jia Jing and Jia Yu knelt outside the door and fainted to death, before being sent back to the mansion by the palace people.

Then Zhu Xianming issued an order, on the grounds that the Jia family was not strict in governing the family and had negative holy will, and the title of Rongguo Mansion was cut by one level again.

Jia Yu changed from the original first-class son to a second-class viscount, and the rank officials were even more miserable and demoted by six levels, and the first-rank Shenwei general became the second-rank Anguo general.

And this result, Zhu Xianming took into account the weakness of the prince, so he did not clean up the Jia family too ruthlessly, otherwise it would be very unfavorable to the court situation to make the prince's mentality collapse.

The emperor decreed, and the matter was settled.

As for the culprit Jia Baoyu, even if Jia's mother maintained it, it still failed to avoid the result of being swept away.

At this moment, the whole Jia family is full of hostility towards him, and they can't wait for him, the mourning star, to die immediately.

"According to my original intention, such people who don't know the height of the sky should be strangled!" Zhu Xianming said indifferently.

Yang Qingyin persuaded: "If they really die, it will be difficult for the thirteen families to meet with the crown princess, so the result will not make it difficult for them!" ”

"That's why I said that the fourth daughter-in-law is short-sighted and can't see through the general trend, so she ...... even a lot."

At the end, Zhu Xianming stopped abruptly, but Yang Qingyin knew what he wanted to say.

"Even what? Can't even give up a sibling brother? Yang Qingyin said angrily.

"The daughter-in-law of the thirteenth old, even her brother can reprimand and punish her, and she can be disciplined so that she understands the rules and knows how to advance and retreat, and now she can serve the imperial court!"

Whether it was Baochai retreating from the hidden land, or teaching Xue Pan to take the right path later, or even ordering someone to scold his brother with a rod a month ago...... Zhu Xianming knows all these things.

At this time, Yang Qingyin didn't want to quarrel with Zhu Xianming, so he changed the topic and said: "Now that you are satisfied with the thirteenth daughter-in-law again, you wanted to abolish her princess at the beginning!" ”

"This girl understands things, compared to ......"

Before Zhu Xianming finished speaking, Cheng Ying's voice came from outside.

"Your Majesty, the Northwest Governor's Office is urgent!"

"Bring it!" Zhu Xianming put down his chopsticks.

The northwest has to send back military information every day, but not all of them are called emergency military information, and every time they encounter Zhu Xianming, they will deal with it in time.

After receiving the letter from Cheng Ying's hand, Zhu Xianming read it carefully.

After a few breaths, seeing that Zhu Xianming's expression changed greatly, Yang Qingyin hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"Ning Huanxiang is dead and ...... Attack and kill, no bones remain! ”

"What about the front line? How is the battle going? Yang Qingyin asked the most important question.

Zhu Xianming turned the page and looked down, and then his expression became even more exciting.

Seeing Yang Longshan's resignation, Zhu Xianming sneered: "Yang Longshan is a little self-aware......"

But when he saw what was next, he couldn't laugh.

"This little brute...... How dare he! Zhu Xianming was furious.
