When Xiao Wuxian left that day, he had said that he would come back in a month at most. Before leaving, he discussed with Yu Ziqian and Zhu Youzhang. And King Ning's attack on the capital was also expected by them, so they had already prepared for the worst long before Xiao Wuxian left.

"Now that the rebels are in the city, we can't sit idly by, we believe that Innocence will return. But we must also be completely prepared ourselves, and we must do our best to win this battle," Zhu Youzhu said with a firm expression.

Although the current Ming Emperor is not him, he has an unshirkable responsibility. Since he was a child, he has been determined to benefit all people, and today is the time for him to contribute to all people, so he is ready to die in battle.

Hua Liuliu's dream since he was a child was to do business, so his mind was always only on making money, but at this moment he also felt that the blood in his body was boiling, like a tiger about to break out of his body. He is behind the general, with the blood of a soldier flowing in his bones, and at this moment the blood of a soldier has been revived in his body.

All these days he has been feeling guilty for not being able to follow his father on the battlefield to kill the enemy, and he feels very incompetent. But at this moment, he has to take on his responsibilities like a man. Since he can't go to the front line to fight, then today is his chance, and he must not be ashamed of his father.

The hands of the three of them were only clasped together, and the three great gentlemen had already grown to a new realm. Today made the most important decision at the most critical moment, they never cared about their reputation, but today they decided to impress the world, even the gentleman has his own passion.

Outside the city, King Ning had already prepared the last military mobilization meeting, and at the same time, Yu Ziqian in the city was also holding the last military meeting.

The meeting was attended by the main ministers of the imperial court and a number of military commanders, and it was a depressing meeting.

Because everyone knows what they are going to face, now that the enemy army has come to the city, only by defeating the enemy can we keep the imperial capital, the Ming Dynasty, and the national fortune.

There is no other way.

Therefore, this battle can only be won, not defeated!

It was in this atmosphere of suppressed tension that the meeting began, and the first thing to discuss was the question of how to fight. Luo Jin, the commander of the forbidden army, believes that the strength of the enemy army is stronger than that of the Ming army in the current situation, and if you want to retreat from the enemy, the best way is to clear the wilderness, stick to the city, and when the enemy is tired, you will naturally retreat.

There is no doubt that defending the city is the best policy, when the enemy is outnumbered. The Ming side had to rely on the city to fight, which was also the only advantage of the Ming Dynasty. Since ancient times, it was far more difficult to attack a city than to defend it, because they had to climb high and climb the ladder.

The city wall can be regarded as a natural barrier, so as soon as Luo Jin's words came out, they were unanimously agreed by everyone. However, most people do not include one person, that is, only one person is against it.

According to the principle that the minority obeys the majority, Luo Jin's proposal should also be adopted. But this time is different, even if there are more people who agree, it is useless, because this person who opposes is the current supreme military commander, Yu Ziqian, the secretary of the military department.

Although Emperor Shenzong was the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, he gave this matter to Yu Ziqian. Of course, this decision was unanimously opposed by many ministers of civil and military affairs, and this was not aimed at Yu Ziqian.

But no matter from which point of view, in the eyes of the ministers, Yu Ziqian does not have such qualifications, and Yu Ziqian is just a hairy boy who is less than twenty years old. He has been an official for less than two months, and he is still a civil official, and he has never fought a war, so Yu Ziqian is not suitable in any respect.

However, Emperor Shenzong Zhu Yujun overrode public opinion and handed over the entire responsibility to Yu Ziqian's hands amid many objections. He has also been on the battlefield, galloping on the battlefield, and he is at the helm of the Ming Empire, he believes in his own vision. Just as he valued Ling Jing from thousands of troops, this time he believed that he would not be mistaken.

At first, everyone was still unapologetic about Ziqian, but in the following series of events. People gradually began to admire this newly appointed supreme military commander, because Yu Ziqian's series of orders were to the point, even those real soldiers could not compare.

If it weren't for Yu Ziqian's age, they would definitely think that Yu Ziqian was a battle-hardened general. In the exclamation of everyone, Yu Ziqian gradually established his prestige.

He presided over and convened this military conference, and he was also the convener of the conference. At this meeting, everyone can express their opinions and speak freely, but the only person who can really make a decision is Yu Ziqian.

Looking at the people around him, he stood up and said his opinion, "Zhu Yuzhen led the army to come, all the way like a bamboo, unstoppable, and very arrogant. If you blindly stick to it, it will only fuel their arrogance even more, I have been open for nearly a hundred years, Taizu Buyi is still able to dominate the world, Jingchen Mobei, how can my generation weaken in front of the little rebels today"

At this time, Yu Ziqian was murderous and awe-inspiring, like a decisive general, which was terrifying!

In fact, Yu Ziqian said this on the one hand to boost momentum, and on the other hand, Luo Jin's strategy is simply not advisable. King Ning's rebellion this time can be said to be in the right place at the right time, and he has been planning for decades and has been extremely well prepared. It is not at all like what Luo Jin said that they can treat the enemy weakly, they are well fed and well prepared, if the war drags on for a long time, it will be detrimental to the Ming Dynasty.

The most important reason is that the capital has now become an isolated city, without foreign aid, and not only people's minds have changed over time. Even the morale of the army will be affected, so not only can we not retreat in this battle, but we must take the initiative.

So Yu Ziqian looked at the generals, paused, and gave his first order sharply:

"All the troops are out of the city, and they are arrayed to meet the enemy!"

Everyone was silent, and they all looked at him in amazement!

They really don't need to say anything, they know they don't count anyway. You can do it yourself, and we can only obey orders.

So, Yu Ziqian went on to issue his second military order: "The gold-clothed guards stay in the city to inspect, but anyone who finds that there are armored soldiers who do not go out of the city to fight, will be killed!"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone was shocked. The commander of the Jinyi Guard made Zhu Jinwen even more surprised, whether it was Wenchen or the general, they all felt that a killing god was standing in front of them at this time.

Where is there still the appearance of a half-point gentleman, Yu Ziqian, who looks full of ruffians on weekdays, is so strong, and the military orders are so strict, unheard of, even the veterans who are used to bleeding on the battlefield are shocked.

But before they could recover from the shock, Yu Ziqian's murderous voice sounded again.

"The army all drove out of the city, and the gold-clothed guards remained at the city wall to stand by. The nine gates are the gateway to the capital, and the generals are now assigned to guard them, and if they are lost, they will not be forgiven!"

A series of orders were conveyed, and the eight gates of the capital had already assigned generals to defend, and suddenly Yu Ziqian listened. But everyone's nerves did not relax, but became more nervous, because there was another gate that was not said, and it was the most important portal among the nine gates - Desheng Gate!"

Desheng Gate is the most important gateway among the nine gates, because he is the main gate to the north of the capital, and it is facing the army of Zhu Yuzhen. Once the war starts, this will inevitably become the battlefield of the rebels' main attack, so it is also the most dangerous place among the nine gates.

Everyone knew that this was definitely not a good place to go, but everyone didn't wait long, because Yu Ziqian quickly said the town guard:

"Deshengmen, Yu Ziqian, Zhu Youzhang"

He looked at everyone with a determined look that told them that this was not a joke, but his own command. In the end, his eyes fell on Zhu Youjiao's body, he didn't see the slightest fear in Zhu Youzhang's eyes, but what he saw was a strong fighting spirit and a firmness to see death as home.

Originally, he was the only one who guarded the Desheng Gate, but Zhu Youzhu took the initiative to find him and asked to participate in this battle.

"Tomorrow we brothers will fight side by side in a war, one world, two brothers, do not seek to be born in the same year, the same month, and the same day, but wish to die in the same year, the same month, and the same day. If we lose the battle tomorrow, you and my brothers will go to Huangquan together, and if we win, you and my brothers will achieve immortal achievements together."

Zhu Youjiao's words are still lingering in his ears loudly, one world, two brothers. Although he was not far from Zhu Youzhu to take risks, once the army was defeated, Zhu Youzhu would still be unable to escape death. But if the battle is won, Zhu Youzhu will definitely be famous all over the world, and this immortal feat will be the most brilliant stroke that helped him ascend to the throne of God.

So he agreed to Zhu Youzhang's request, and did not even tell the emperor about it. Zhu Youzhang's identity is special, although he was not taken seriously, but no one dared to ignore his identity, no matter how he said it, he was also a prince, and his joining was also an encouragement to morale.

The civil and military ministers saw the expressions of Yu Ziqian and Zhu Youjiao, without the slightest joke. They were all shocked, but what shocked them even more was still to come, because Yu Ziqian then issued another order that they had never heard of and was full of murderous energy.

"All soldiers who go out to battle will fight bravely to kill the enemy, and when they fight together, it is the time to fight to the death!"

"Before the battle, those who will retreat first regardless of the army will be killed immediately!"

"When the battle is in battle, the army will not care about those who will retreat first, and the rear team will cut the front team!"

This is a famous military battle in the war, hearing this murderous language, everyone seems to be in the battlefield of white bones, murderous atmosphere, straight to the sky, deeply shocked everyone's heart.

It seems that they are meeting the youngest military secretary in front of them who has not yet reached the age of two years, and the Ming Dynasty. Just two months ago, he was still a good-for-nothing kid in people's mouths.

However, today they recognized a new Yu Ziqian, who was calm and decisive. His steadfastness has given everyone faith, and he has grown into a strong-willed and decisive battlefield commander.
