Outside Puzikou City, corpses were everywhere, and snowflakes floated on the messy corpses, extremely solemn and desolate.A big flag on the ground, the Ming character on it is blurred in the mud and snow.
A soldier with a wide-brimmed hat ran desperately in the snow, accidentally kicked a corpse and fell to the ground.
He immediately turned over and stared at the roaring iron horse with his terrified eyes. He pressed his hands on the snow behind him, kicked his feet, and moved his body backwards.
The big flag with the words "King Gaoyang" was floating, and a big brown horse was on the way, and Zhu Gaoxu, who was covered in iron armor, stabbed the soldiers on the ground with a cherry gun.
But the cherry gun suddenly stopped, and Zhu Gaoxu shouted loudly on the horse's back: Surrender, you can avoid death!
General, please spare your life!The soldiers finally shouted out.
Zhu Gaoxu then took away the cherry gun.The soldier turned over from the sitting position, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed: Thank you for your kindness of not killing, thank you for your kindness of not killing!
Zhu Gaoxu said: I am the Prince of Gaoyang.
There were shouts of people coming from the dark and crowded in the distance: King Gaoyang is mighty!King Gaoyang is mighty...
Zhu Gaoxu looked back and frowned slightly.
The round-faced man next to him said: The prince’s achievements can be seen by the soldiers!The army was not in a good way in the morning, and fortunately, a prince defeated the elite cavalry of the official army. Otherwise, how could the king's army surrounded and attacked Sheng Yong from all sides?
Zhu Gaoxu said nothing and stopped pursuing the defeated soldiers, so he withdrew his troops and headed towards the central army formation.
Not long after, King Yàn came immediately with a bloody Ming sword slapped. Zhu Gaoxu stepped forward and clasped his fists and said: Father, all Sheng Yong's army has collapsed, and the horse teams are still chasing!King Yàn sighed: My son made great contributions in this battle!
Zhu Gaoxu immediately said: It’s because our father and son are united, and the father is in charge of the central army and the sons are fighting in battle. This is why the Jingnan Army beats the official army and the father wins Sheng Yong!
King Yàn looked at him and nodded with great satisfaction.
Several generals came one after another and congratulated King Yàn on Dasheng. Zhu Neng opened his mouth and shouted: After this battle, there is no one in the official army!
King Yàn rode his horse for a while, turned to look at the vast river.
At this time, Zheng He said in a deep voice: Last year, King Gaoyang and his servants and others were unable to make an appointment in the capital and did not see Chen Xuan.But at that time, people were everywhere in the city, and they were searching with portraits of King Gaoyang.Chen Xuan will definitely be able to guess what is going on and understand our sincerity.Prince, don’t worry, Chen Xuan should come to surrender!
As soon as they finished speaking, everyone saw sails on the distant river surface, and large swaths of ships came towards Jiangbei.
In less than half an hour, a military general came to report: The prince, Chen Xuan, the deputy general of the official army, led the Dajiang Navy to surrender!
Hahaha... King Yàn suddenly laughed to the sky, his eyebrows stretched out, and there was a celebration around him, "My teacher can cross the river when he defeats the sun!"
After laughing, King Yàn turned his horse's head, patted Zhu Gaoxu's shoulder twice, and said, "If it weren't for Gaoxu, how could I cross the river?"
Everyone seemed to think that Zhu Gaoxu would be proud at this time, but Zhu Gaoxu responded sincerely: If the son is not the son of his father, he will not know where to sell straw sandals now!How can the grace of the world be compared to the grace of the parents?
Hahaha!The generals burst into laughter again.
King Yàn pointed his sword at the sky, spreading his arms as if embracing the entire river, and his hesitation was written on his face.
What he was about to embrace was not only the river, but the whole world, more than a dozen governing officials, more than a thousand counties, and billions of subjects.
...Chen Xuan led the navy to surrender, and the river was no longer dangerous to defend, and the government and the country were shocked.
The Censor Lian Ying impeached the left governor Xu Zengshou: he was good at Chen Xuan and colluded with him.Xu Zengshou was in court to defend himself, but the furious emperor Zhu Yunwen picked up the sword and stabbed Xu Zengshou to death in the temple with his own hands!
Xu Zengshou covered his stomach with his hands, and blood came out from his fingers, lying in a pool of blood, looking at the golden roof of the hall with a reluctance, struggling for a long time, his eyes still couldn't close.
When the ministers left the imperial city, outside the Donghua Gate, Fang Xiaoru handed the reins of a child and walked towards Lianying.Only then did Lian Ying realize that the person who led the horse was not a child, but a dwarf.
Fang Xiaoru glanced at Lian Ying, then turned his head with his eyes, clasped his fists and said: He is my adopted son Fang Zhongyi.Then Fang Xiaoru praised: The Censor is strong and loyal and frank, which is very admirable.
Lian Ying said: Just plan your politics in his position!Since I am the censor, Isn’t it my duty to impeach evil ministers in the court?How can you be afraid because of who is in a high position?
At this moment, a voice filled with indignation said: There are really many people who are afraid now!If all ministers abide by their duties, why does the country have this?
Lian Ying looked at it and found that it was Jing Qing, the Censor.Lian Ying said: If the country is in trouble, it is just death. Why are you afraid of it?
good!What a fear!Jing Qing said, if the country is in trouble, I will die with Duke Lian to repay the emperor’s kindness!
Fang Xiaoru also hurriedly said: I'm the only one.
The three of them immediately looked generous and bowed each other to show their admiration.
……
The Yàn army crossed the river, and the defenders of Zhenjiang and other cities surrendered without fighting.
Sheng Yong gathered the remaining troops to resist the enemy in Gaozi Port.
Zhu Gaoxu led 10,000 cavalry to rush out and found that the official army could not resist the rush. The iron cavalry rushed over. Before he reached the front of the formation, many soldiers of the official army abandoned their swords and ran away!
In less than two minutes, Zhu Gaoxu divided Sheng Yong's formation forward, backward, left and right, and Sheng Yong's army was defeated.
By the time the main force of the Yàn Division arrived at Gaozi Port, the official army had become a chaotic soldier.
I encountered some sporadic resistance along the way, but the Iron Cavalry of the Yàn Division was unstoppable and was unstoppable.
On the Lantern Festival in the fourth year of Jianwen, the Yàn army crossed the river for only ten days and had already arrived at the capital. More than 200,000 troops gathered near the outer Jinchuan Gate.
This festival is destined to be without a peaceful and prosperous atmosphere.
The cold wind mixed with snowflakes whistling in the air. Among the hazy snowflakes, the majestic city towers stand like mountains, and the continuous tall walls block the front, leaving no end and end.
King Yàn took a list from the general, looked at it, and handed it to Zhu Gaoxu next to him.
Zhu Gaoxu also looked down and it turned out to be a "Self-Sinning Edict" issued by Emperor Jianwen. He roughly looked at the important parts: the four-way chief ministers, the governors, the inspectors and civil and military officials of the various prefectures. When the country was in trouble, they led the respectful, righteous and brave men to the vassal to serve the king to support the clan society. As for the merits and rewards, I have no stinginess...
Some soldiers of the king came one after another, but before the Yàn division arrived at the capital, they defeated them one after another.The only one who can truly block the elite of Master Yàn is the wall in front of him.
Zhu Gaoxu handed the guilty edict to another military general and said to King Yàn: My son promised Zhao Hui, a thousand households in the outer Jinchuan Gate, to let him be his son-in-law.Li Jinglong also wrote the document.As long as they are still guarding the outer Jinchuan Gate, the city gate should be opened.
Well... King Yàn was still staring at the city gate.The surrounding troops were like a sea of people, and the flags were like clouds everywhere. As long as the people on the city were not blind, they could see the arrival of the Yàn master.
But the city gate had not opened yet, time passed by little by little, and King Yàn's expression became a little anxious.
The construction of Nanjing City is huge, large and strong. If you really want to defend yourself, you can’t just rely on more than 200,000 troops, and you really don’t want to take it down easily. You don’t know how long it will take to attack the city just!
What's more, the Yàn Division fought continuously, and now the troops were exhausted. At that time, more soldiers and horses were coming, and if there were generals in the court, they would have to fight bloody battles under the capital...
After a long time, suddenly, a heavy sound came from the outer Jinchuan Gate, and the city gate slowly moved.
The thick gate gradually opened, and a cheer sounded from the Yàn teacher.
King Yàn immediately led his army to rush over.At this time, Li Jinglong, Gu Wang, Zhao Hui and others came out of the city with messy soldiers, and there was blood on Zhao Hui's face.
Li Jinglong and others dismounted and knelt on the ground, saying: King Yàn, Zhang Qianhu, the guard of the outer Jinchuan Gate, was on duty, led the army to block the door, and did not listen to the control.We didn't win a battle, and the reinforcements of the court were coming.The situation was very critical, and fortunately, the personal soldiers around Zhang Qianhu suddenly stabbed him to death from behind!
After hearing this, King Yàn asked: Who is the name of the personal soldier?
Li Jinglong said: Yao Fang.
King Yàn then dispatched troops to control the outer Jinchuan Gate first, and then advanced towards the inner city Jinchuan Gate.
The army was approaching the inner city gate, and the city gate had quietly opened. The capital's last defense surrendered without fighting... Starting from the city gate corridor, it stretched all the way to the street, with civil and military officials kneeling on both sides.
King Yàn personally led the iron cavalry and rushed into the city gate with a swagger.
At this moment, a shout suddenly came from the air: "You are the minister and the uncle and the nephew are the violent and rebellious ones!"
Countless soldiers wearing strong and stalked sharp soldiers turned to the right following the sound. On the empty street, the sound of horse hooves came. A civil servant was wearing a bright red official uniform, holding a long sword in his hand, and rushed over alone to slap his horse!
Everyone was stunned. Zhu Neng took the lead in blocking the right side of King Yàn. Waiting for the civil servant to approach, Zhu Neng gently patted the cherry gun in the waist. The civil servant screamed and fell off his horse.
Suddenly, all the soldiers rushed forward, picked up swords and guns and slashed at the people on the ground, and their blood was thrown everywhere.
King Yàn pointed to the remains of the ground and asked the official kneeling beside him, who is this person?
One person replied: When you say something to King Yàn, this person is the supervisor of the censor Lian Ying.
King Yàn looked murderous and snorted.At this time, he said again: Gao Xu, lead the army as the vanguard and go to the imperial city immediately!
Zhu Gaoxu clasped his fists and said: I got the order!
Zhu Gaoxu then greeted the soldiers who had just entered the city, snapped the horse and left.He crossed the pool of blood on the ground and turned to look at the fuzzy appearance of the civil servant.
At the beginning of the Jingnan Battle, Zhu Gaoxu was always looking forward to the arrival of the day of victory. However, this day really came, but he did not feel the ecstasy in anticipation.
The cold air and the smell of blood in his nose made him vaguely feel... terror and killing have just begun.
A soldier with a wide-brimmed hat ran desperately in the snow, accidentally kicked a corpse and fell to the ground.
He immediately turned over and stared at the roaring iron horse with his terrified eyes. He pressed his hands on the snow behind him, kicked his feet, and moved his body backwards.
