Chapter 178: Decision


is still the same sentence, Zhu Di can defeat Jianwen and succeed in counterattacking, his own efforts are still a secondary factor, and the opponent must be stupid enough to go against the grain. otbnkotgt With such a boss, hundreds of thousands of troops fell mold for eight lifetimes, and the whole army was wiped out It is said that even a blind man should see that this thing is more cheating than Zhao Kuo, but Huang Zicheng, an idiot, turned around and suggested sending Li Jinglong to lead the troops to fight Beiping, and I don't know how many benefits the surname Li gave him, and Jianwen's trust in Huang Zicheng has reached the point of no return, so he agreed again.

People say that the same mistake cannot be made twice, but Emperor Jianwen does not believe in evil, but this time Li Jinglong refreshed the lower limit.

When he arrived in Beiping, he was so frightened by Zheng He that he fled, just flee, and he didn't say a word to his subordinates, leaving 600,000 troops on the periphery of Beiping in the ice and snow to drink the northwest wind Just such a criminal minister who defeated an army of millions, in any dynasty, it was enough to die a hundred times, but in the merciful Jianwen, he was unscathed.

But compared to Jianwen's love for Zhu Di, this is nothing, from the beginning of the siege of Yanwangfu, until the start of the Jingyan Battle, three years ago, Emperor Jianwen objected to his generals, don't let me bear the charge of killing my uncle As soon as the emperor Chrysostom opened, Zhu Di has since become invulnerable, it is simply open, since he learned of the care of his good nephew, Zhu Di naturally wants to use this kindness to the extreme.

Every battle must be charged ahead, the imperial army can only avoid its edge, the Yan army is often overwhelmed, and the tide of the war is often reversed.

In addition to playing tricks on the battlefield, Zhu Di also used it to hit the morale of his opponents.

After the First World War, he only took more than ten horsemen and slept all night in front of the camp of Sheng Yong, the general of the official army.

Early the next morning, Sheng Yong's men and horses eagerly surrounded King Yan.

King Yan's face did not change, and he blew nonsense towards Sheng Yong, and then calmly passed through the armor array, and walked away, Sheng Yong did not dare to stop him.

Please, it's a fart like this, the morale of the officers and soldiers is depressed to the extreme And the myth of Zhu Di was cast, and even if he encountered failure and difficult situations, his soldiers firmly believed that His Royal Highness King Yan, who descended from heaven like a god, was the true son of heaven of the Ming Dynasty and would definitely bring them the final victory Emperor Jianwen, a benevolent and erudite young emperor, had never experienced a day of battlefield baptism, and under the staff of a group of 25 Confucian scholars, his military orders were scattered, rewards and punishments were excessive, and he was politically at a loss.

At the most critical moment of the battle between the two armies, Emperor Jianwen actually committed suicide by being injured in the palace concubine, unable to help himself, living in a simple house, and having no intention of being in the government.

The court was detached, and pessimism and disappointment quickly spread Finally, in the fourth year of Jianwen, Zhu Di adopted Yao Guangxiao's suggestion to avoid the city and go straight to the capital.

Li Jinglong, who was able to survive under the special grace of Emperor Jianwen, betrayed the emperor without hesitation, and opened the city gate with the king of Gu to welcome the Yan army into Beijing Zheng Tang's thoughts were deep and long, and in the past ten years, he had not reviewed that period of history so carefully, because he was afraid that he would be crushed by boundless frustration, and he would no longer have the courage to support it until the day when Emperor Jianwen reinvigorated At this time, the chanting stopped, and the incompetent and benevolent emperor, the melancholy and compassionate monk, slowly opened his eyes and said softly to him: "Old man, I have caused you trouble. ” Hearing this, Zheng Tang came back to his senses, even if he had more opinions on Jianwenjun, whenever he saw these melancholy eyes like a lake, they all disappeared, and he kowtowed respectfully and said: "The old minister visits the emperor." ” "Why should the old man be polite," Jianwenjun shook his head slowly and said: "Luotuo Jianghu is not a gentleman, get up and speak quickly." ” "Your Majesty."

Zheng Tang sat on the futon opposite him, his eyes lowered slightly, so as not to be humble.

"I'm sorry."

Jianwenjun looked at Zheng Tang and said apologetically: "The ominous person has brought great disaster to the Zheng family and Pujiang. ” "How can you complain about the emperor" Zheng Tang shook his head and said: "There is no disaster in the world, and mediocre people take it for themselves."

If it weren't for the collusion between the evil son and the Ming Sect, how could the imperial court target Pujiang and finally incur His Majesty's exposure?"

"Ling Lang is loyal and righteous, after accompanying me to leave the Beijing Division, he has been running around, begging for the restoration of the country, how can he blame" Jianwen Jun said.

"The emperor is benevolent, now that the imperial army is pressing, the county town has been occupied by Mingjiao, a big war is about to break out, and there is no place in Pujiang to be safe."

Zheng Tang got into the topic and said: "Old minister, please ask the emperor what is the holy will?"

"That's why I'm here for you."

Jianwen said with a troubled face: "My own thoughts, of course, are that I don't want to bring more pain to the people, so I would rather surrender to Uncle Huang."

Because the widow has been meditating and reflecting on the past for many years, he has already known very well that he is not the opponent of the emperor's uncle at all, but the courtiers have now taken action, and if I escape, they will be poisoned by the court.

Even if the court opens up and spares their lives, they will not be as good as death, which is really unfair to them."

Listening to the emperor's words, Zheng Tang sighed lightly: "Your Majesty always thinks about others like this."

After a pause, he said in a deep voice: "If Your Majesty wants to go to the county seat to join the Ming Church, the old minister will immediately ring the alarm bell, gather two thousand soldiers, and swear to follow Your Majesty to the death."

"What can you do if you go to the county seat" Jianwen's eyes were full of confusion and said: "Is it really as they said, half of the country is obedient, and the allied forces of the provinces will recover the capital?"

"This" Zheng Tang said in a low voice: "Impossible." ” "Hmm" Although he knew that there was little hope, Jian Wenjun was still a little frustrated when he heard the old man be so categorical.

"Your Majesty, the old minister thinks there are three reasons."

Zheng Tang said in a deep voice: "One, if Zhejiang's army is still dealing with the Japanese at sea, we still have a chance to take advantage of it, but now, Tang Yun's army has surrounded Pujiang, once we raise the banner of His Majesty, he will definitely attack the city at any cost, Pujiang County is low and narrow, easy to attack and difficult to defend, I am afraid that the provinces will not have time to respond, we will destroy the city first." ” "Two, Zheng Qia's activities in the provinces, the old ministers are quite clear, and they know that the people who deal with them are civil officials and vassal kings.

However, the experience of ten years ago tells us that if you don't have to fight the world's officials, you still have to rely on military generals.

However, Zhu Di's prestige in the army is extremely high, and most of the provincial officers rebelled against him, not only is it impossible to stand on our side, but once something happens, he will spare no effort to eliminate us like Tang Yun.

Your Majesty thinks about it, with the brave and righteous army of the townspeople pulled up by the civil officials, it can deal with those officers and soldiers who can fight well, but I am afraid that when the provinces will rise up, it will be the day when the loyal ministers will suffer."

"The time is not right.

If something happened before yesterday, Lao Chen can still see some hope, when Zhu Di marched north, Zheng He went south, Zhang Fu was in Pingjiaozhi again, the army was thousands of miles away, the country was empty and undefended, and the people were squeezed and miserable.

At that time, the difficulty of the incident was smaller, and the number of people who responded was more.

But now that Zhu Di and Zheng He's army has already returned to Beijing, only there is a war in Jiaozhi, and the people can breathe again.

When we start an incident at this time, the time, the place, and the people are not occupied, the difficulties are multiplied, and the hope is slim."

"Alas" After listening to Zheng Tang's words, the last trace of luck in Jianwen's heart was completely shattered, and after a pause, he said quietly: "But there has been an incident in the county, and I am afraid that the provinces have also taken action."

"It is the people of the Ming Sect who occupy the county seat," Zheng Tang said senran: "The Ming Sect is a cult appointed by Emperor Taizu, if Your Majesty mixes with it, what orthodoxy and righteousness can there be?"

paused: "As for the provinces, Your Majesty can rest assured, the biggest problem of civil officials is that they look ahead and look backwards, and they rarely have the courage to move forward."

Not sure if His Majesty really appeared in Pujiang, they would not act. ” "Hmm."

Jianwen nodded and said: "What about the Zheng family, the imperial court knows that the widow is hiding in Pujiang, and it will not let go of the Zheng family."

"The Zheng family has long put life and death aside, Your Majesty doesn't have to mind."

Zheng Tang said lightly: "What's more, we are the filial piety family inscribed by Emperor Taizu himself, and without real evidence, the court can't move us." ” Zhu Yuanzhang is really powerful, wrote a few words, and let the Zheng family risk his life to protect his grandson.

"Alas, you have been miserable by these words" Jianwen sighed faintly: "The Zheng family is loyal and righteous, I can't let you suffer."

Why don't you tie me up and sacrifice me, and change my life. ” Zheng Tang looked at Jianwen suddenly, and saw that he was serious when he said this, not a joke, and couldn't help but be secretly moved, although this is not the Ming Lord, but Renjun, he is also worthy of allegiance.

He shook his head categorically and said: "If this kind of buyer wants to live, my Zheng family will be spurned by the world, and it is better to die for 10,000 years."

"Alas" Jianwen thinks about it, for a family like the Zheng family, honor is above all else, including life and death.

"That old man has another way" "Your Majesty doesn't need to worry too much, this matter is left to the old minister."

Zheng Tang nodded and said: "It's just that Your Majesty has been wronged here for a few days now, and when the time is ripe, there will naturally be a way." ” "I can stay anywhere," Emperor Jianwen held Old Man Zheng's hand and said sincerely: "I also have to count the descendants of the K family, because I will lose the whole family" "Your Majesty rest assured" Zheng Tang said in a low voice: "Several grandchildren and great-grandchildren of the old man have gone to Fujian":
