Volume 3 Chapter 145 Negotiation
Chapter 145: Negotiations
The rapid sound of the horn shook everyone in Daning City, and the most anxious was Dao Yan, Zhu Di led the troops to strictly follow the military system of the Ming Dynasty after arriving in Daning, and only brought hundreds of guards into the city, and left the main force of the Yan army to camp outside Daning City. Of course, the reason for this is not only to comply with the military system, but also for a more important purpose. First, it was necessary to form a horn with the Daning defenders, in order to echo with the Daning defenders to jointly defend against the Mongol army; second, the most important thing was to gain Zhu Quan's trust so that he could carry out the next move. This is based on the common practice in the army, which is understandable, but now the worst thing is that Zhu Di fell into the hands of Tiemu Ge'er's uncle and nephew, making the army ownerless, if the Mongolian army really wants to attack the city at this time, the first to bear the brunt will definitely be the Yan army outside the city, and now without Zhu Di in the army, the consequences are really unimaginable.
Although Dao Yan was anxious, he really couldn't think about it in the face of Brother Temu, he couldn't beat it, and even more on the precautions of Temu Dudu and Longmu several people, he really didn't dare to grab it, "Throw the mouse bogey! Throw the mouse bogey!" At this time, Dao Yan could only repeat only a few words in his heart.
"Master, what should I do?!" Zhu Gaoxu, Zhu Neng, Zhang Xin and others gathered around Dao Yan, all staring at him with fiery eyes, hoping that this old monk, who had always been a god, could come up with some clever plan to resolve the crisis in front of him.
Dao Yan glanced at Zhu Di, who was tightly grasped by Tiemu Dudu, and said with his eyebrows locked: "Please ask the prince and several generals to hurry back to the camp to stabilize the morale of the army, and now we must ensure that there are no more accidents in the army." ”
Although Zhu Gaoxu and the others were a little reluctant, but thinking that they were all generals in the army, it could be said that they were not convinced by anyone who went into battle to kill the enemy, but they were really not their forte at saving people in front of them, and even if they were forced to stay, they would not play much role. In the end, the few people had to glare at the uncle and nephew viciously, and reluctantly agreed.
But just when Zhu Gaoxu and the others were about to turn around and leave, Dao Yantu said again: "Please go and invite His Royal Highness King Ning as soon as possible, and ask him to preside over the affairs of the enemy, I will stay here, and now I am fighting for my life, and the old monk will definitely find a way to rescue His Highness safely." ”
Zhu Gaoxu glanced at Dao Yan vigilantly, and said in his heart: "At this time, please ask King Ning to preside over the whole army, this old bald donkey doesn't want to change the court!"
Dao Yan is a person with exquisite thoughts, and when he saw Zhu Gaoxu's eyes, he couldn't read the meaning, and immediately said with a firm expression: "Don't worry, prince, although I, Dao Yan, have no heart, I definitely know the word 'shame'." ”
Zhu Gaoxu nodded noncommittally and said: "The master is too careful, my father and son can definitely trust the master, and please ask the master to find a way to get out of my father quickly, and I must ensure the safety of my father!"
"The virtuous nephew can rest assured to preside over military affairs, and this king will definitely rescue the fourth brother safely. As he spoke, he saw Zhu Quan walking anxiously from the army surrounded by dozens of guards, and he said as he approached: "The virtuous nephew quickly goes to the army to prepare, and the Mongols must not be allowed to break the city, if the military camp outside the city cannot be defended, the virtuous nephew will bring a large army into the city, and we will resist the Mongols together." ”
Zhu Gaoxu couldn't help but scold in his heart: "You only got out when the Mongols attacked the city, it's been a night of trouble, what did you do earlier?!" Zhu Gaoxu was so anxious that he forgot that Zhu Quan** was his own grandmother (Zhu Di and Zhu Quan are brothers of the same mother). But Zhu Gaoxu also understood in his heart that at this time, the enemy was really inseparable from Zhu Quan, especially now that Zhu Di was captured, he suppressed the anger in his heart, bowed to Zhu Quan and said: "My nephew, please ask Uncle Wang for everything, and I must ensure the safety of my father." ”
Zhu Quan ignored Zhu Gaoxu's strange expression, and only nodded at him and said, "Don't worry, nephew, go to the camp to prepare, I am here." With that, he turned to look at the situation in the field.
Dao Yan waited for Zhu Gaoxu and the others to leave, immediately approached Zhu Quan, bowed slightly and said: "Your Highness, I look at what Brother Temu is doing today, he doesn't seem to have the intention of hurting King Yan, and I also ask His Highness to promise to let their uncle and nephew leave this place, I think he will definitely be released back to His Royal Highness King Yan." ”
Zhu Quan glanced at Dao Yan from the corner of his eye, as if he wanted to see the true intention of Dao Yan's words.
Dao Yan suddenly felt bitter in his heart, and said secretly: "It seems that the descendants of the Zhu family have really inherited Zhu Yuanzhang's suspicion very well. But he had to say again: "Your Royal Highness King Ning, now that the military situation is urgent, please be sure to ensure the safety of King Yan, otherwise the army's heart will definitely be unstable......"
Dao Yan wanted to say more, but Zhu Quan waved his hand to stop his words, frowned and said: "Master doesn't need to say much, my fourth brother and my mother will never abandon the fourth brother." Saying that, Zhu Quan suddenly raised his hand high, and heard a rumbling footsteps in the Ming army's formation, and the great array changed immediately, and the sword and shield men and pikemen withdrew to both sides, and immediately revealed the endless archers in the array, including thousands of people.
The sound of the bowstring twisting sounded, and nearly a thousand archers aimed their bows and arrows at the same time. With so many archers aiming at several people at the same time, once an attack is launched, the density of the bow and arrow will definitely not be able to fly out.
The sudden change couldn't help but make everyone present gasp. Brother Temu'er's eyes suddenly flashed with a cold light, and he stared at Zhu Quan tightly. In fact, with his martial arts, he would not take these archers in his eyes at all, but Temu Dudu and others couldn't, and such a dense bow and arrow shooting would definitely not be able to escape alone. He stared at Zhu Quan with burning eyes, just to see if he was willing to give up Zhu Di, if Zhu Quan really dared to do it, he would definitely bring back the heads of the two brothers.
The fastest action was Mi Tu, he rushed to Han Jing'er without thinking of an arrow step, blocking her behind, at this time Han Jing'er was still standing with Temu Dudu and others, and the Ming army's attack naturally would not exclude her.
Han Jing'er's heart was excited, his eyes were slightly wet, he grabbed Mitu's big hand tightly and stood side by side with him, and rebuked softly: "Fool, why are you standing in front of me! You can't do something that reassures me." ”
Mitu looked back at Han Jing'er, his eyes were full of warmth, and he smiled slightly: "Jing'er is the treasure in my heart, so naturally I want to stand with you all the time." ”
Han Jing'er's shoulders trembled slightly, and her jade hand held Mitu's big hand tightly, at this time, her heart was like a warm winter sun, and her whole body was infinitely warm, as for the life and death crisis in front of her, she didn't care at all.
Zhu Quan was extremely surprised by Mitu's actions, he couldn't understand how the two sides who were still life and death enemies just now, how Mitu could stand with each other again in the blink of an eye, but at this time he didn't have time to delve into this matter. (To be continued.) )
