Daming: From the end of Hongwu

"Because sir wants us to understand the principles of ethics."

Wang Xing nodded: "That's right, the heaven and the earth are orderly, everything has an order, and only when you understand the principles of ethics can you act in a normal way. But now the king of Yan is raising troops to cause disasters, ignoring the flesh and blood of the monarch and his ministers, regardless of the disasters of the people all over Hebei, and the current emperor is also Don't talk about the feelings of uncles and nephews, a large-scale crusade against nephews, and even Dezhou, and the officials of the cities and ponds in Hejian are looking forward to the swallows and surrendering. Where did you go?"

While talking, Wang Xing's eyes shed sad tears, as if he was completely disappointed in the people in this world.

Some of the students were still young, although they didn't quite understand why Wang Xing was sad, but seeing the teacher crying so pitifully, they all burst into tears for a while.

Wang Xing tried his best to suppress his tears, looked around at the students again, and continued: "The teacher called you here today because he is afraid that you will be affected by this world, and the teacher is afraid that you will become people who disregard ethics in the future, so, The teacher is using his life today to help you erect the spirit of loyalty in the scholar's heart."

As soon as these words fell, Ji Gang felt bad in his heart.

But he didn't have time to stop him, Wang Xing had exhausted all his strength, and bumped his head against the pillar in the school.

Blood spilled out from Wang Sheng's forehead, congealing his high hopes for the future.

Ji Gang's heart was shaken, but the next moment he suddenly yelled in his heart that it's not good, Wang Xing died like this, what about his errands?What should Zhu Di think of him? !

……

At the same time, Wang Jing, the wife of Zhou Qifeng, the head secretary of Jimo County, suddenly sat up from the hospital bed, and Zhou Qifeng hurried over to care for her.

"What's wrong? Are you having nightmares again? Don't worry too much. Although the Yan army broke through Dezhou, Yue Zhang may not have any accidents. You see, you are so frightened that you lie down on the hospital bed Come on, why are you still unwilling to be a little relieved, besides, Yue Zhang is always a great Confucian of the generation, and if he declares it outside, the King of Yan will definitely not take Yue Zhang's life."

Wang Jing shook her head and covered her mouth, the tears in her eyes had already flowed out, covering her entire palm in a short while.

As a daughter, how could she not know her father's temperament.

She swallowed even more and said: "Husband, let's send a few more people to Jiyang to investigate. I'm afraid that something bad happened to my father, and I want to send some more people there."

"Okay, okay, don't worry, I'll send some people there right now, and then invite father-in-law back and stay with us for a while longer."

Wang Jing was like a helpless person, tightly holding on to her husband's sleeve and refusing to let go.

a few days later.

When Wang Jing waited for the men and horses who came back from Jiyang, apart from the original team, there was only one more corpse in the car.

Wang Sheng's body.

As a daughter, Wang Jing suddenly burst into tears.

She had already guessed the ending.

For her, the most painful thing in the world is knowing the ending but not being able to change anything.

……

Chapter 290 - Shi Leng, who has been offline for a long time

Most people live in a muddle in the world.

But there are also some people who have their own opinions and project their own expectations to the world. Even if such people die, the death will be heavier than Mount Tai.

Just like Wang Xing, Sheng Yong, Tie Xuan, Gao Wei, etc., they are all sticking to their own ideas, and in this chaotic era, they shine a different light.

And in this era, Zhu Di, who has already bloomed the brightest light, is listening to Ji Gang's embellished report of Wang Xing's suicide.

Ji Gang's words looked fair, but every word made it clear that those scholars would not agree with Zhu Di's meaning.

After Zhu Di heard this, his brows immediately twitched with anger.

orthodox!

orthodox!

He also wanted orthodoxy, and wanted to inherit everything Zhu Yuanzhang left behind in a legitimate way.

But Zhu Yuanzhang refused to give it to him.

What can he do?

Originally, he wanted to endure it, but the problem was that his nephew didn't even want to leave him the throne, so what else could he do?We are all descendants of the royal family. It makes no sense for the grandson to eat meat, and the son can't even drink soup.

This matter is placed in ordinary people's homes, which grandson who has taken over the family business, dare not give his uncles a bite of food, and even force him to death.

If there is a grandson who dares to do this, Zhu Di can guarantee that all the people in the world will spurn that grandson.

Why is this matter on him, and the world is full of criticism and condemnation?

Is it really because he is a royal? !

Well, even though he is a royal and has the duty of being a model in the world, it is not too much for Zhu Di to ask everyone not to help each other. If there is no outsider to intervene, if he does not beat Zhu Yunqi's shit out.

He is not his fourth uncle!

Zhu Di's fists were clenched suddenly, and he hammered the table angrily.

Ji Gang sneaked a glance at Zhu Di, and was relieved to see that Zhu Di didn't complain that he was disadvantaged in his job. He valued this opportunity very much, so he didn't want Zhu Di to label him as incompetent.

At this moment, Zhu Di didn't pay attention to Ji Gang's little thoughts, and he didn't care about Ji Gang's little thoughts. After thinking for a while, he suddenly stood up, angrily conveyed the military order, and swung his army again to start going south.

When Zhen Wu received the military order, he was dazed for a moment, but he didn't hesitate too much, and immediately started to move south with his army, but while walking on the road, Zhen Wu couldn't help laughing when he heard that Zhu Di was stimulated by scholars again.

As an old man, he doesn't know what to worry about.

In the future, they will still have to fight with those scholars.

This time, the southern army advanced several ways. When they arrived at the city of Jinan, Li Jinglong displayed an army of 60 troops, trying to fight them again, but the Yan army was invincible all the way, from Zhu Di Zhenwu to ordinary soldiers. The [-] army has been defeated, who would be afraid of Li Jinglong's current [-] army.

Immediately the two sides fought.

In the evening of the First World War, when Li Jinglong's army was exhausted, Zhu Di personally led the fine cavalry, circled around and attacked them, and once again sent Li Jinglong a defeat.

The [-] troops of the Southern Army, crying for their fathers and mothers, fled again, and Li Jinglong was even more forced to flee directly towards Huai'an, not even daring to stay in the Shandong border.

Seeing this, Tie Xuan, Sheng Yong, and Gao Wei in Jinan City all sank a little bit in their hearts.

The reputation of the Yan army as good at fighting is really not a false rumor.

However, this also made them psychologically prepared for a hard fight.

On the second day, when the Yan army was resting, Zhu Di planned to shoot a letter of persuasion into the city, trying to capture Jinan City without bloodshed. Zhen Wu volunteered, took the letter of persuasion written by Zhu Di himself, and rode towards the city of Jinan.

Jinan City, the top of the city is magnificent, and Zhen Wulema is looking at it with fascination.

In the minds of Zhu Di and others, even if the city of Jinan is strong, but there are no reinforcements from outside, and the city is overwhelmed by the Yan army, it will be broken sooner or later. Then the defenders of the city, as long as they have some knowledge, can do nothing but abandon the city and flee south. Only surrender all the way.

Now that Zhu Di gave them a step down, there was no reason for Jinan City to obediently go down.

But Zhen Wu knew that the defenders of Jinan City chose the third way, defending Jinan City to the death, not hesitating to destroy the city.

But in the original history, Tie Xuan and Sheng Yong really had to create their own miracles. Not only did they prevent the Yan army from advancing, but they also successfully guarded Jinan City and continued for two years for Zhu Yunqi. years of life.

They were very dazzling in the original history. Among them, when Zhu Di attacked Jinan City for a long time, and Jinan City was about to be destroyed, Tie Xuan shamelessly took out Zhu Yuanzhang's tablet and hung it on the top of the city. His father's tablet was a rat attack, and he didn't dare to attack again, so he had to return to Beiping in the end. Sheng Yong took advantage of the Yan army's return to Beiping and sent troops to recover Dezhou all the way.

This performance made them stand out directly from the defeated Southern Army.

After Zhu Yunqi learned about it, he not only appointed Tiexuan as Minister of the Ministry of War, but also pushed Sheng Yong to the position of the third commander-in-chief of Pingyan. In the next two years, Sheng Yong lived up to Zhu Yunqi's entrustment and put Zhu Di in the Hebei area. There is no way.

In the end, Zhu Di still learned that the capital was empty, bypassed Shengyong in Shandong, and fought all the way to the city of Nanjing regardless of the back road, which was considered to drive Zhu Yunqi from power.

Zhen Wu doesn't know much about the details of these histories, but he has generally heard about them, so he naturally didn't do nothing about the extremely important Jinan City. He stretched out his hands to Jinan City in his early years and arranged Shi Leng He entered Jinan City, but now he looked at the defenders on the top of the city, but he couldn't guarantee that his previous arrangements would work.

After all, the number of people he has is limited, and most of them can't escape Zhu Di's sight. If he wants to arrange people in Jinan City, he must at least have a plausible reason, otherwise he is afraid that Zhu Di will arrest him and study him. Research whether there are gods in the world.

At present, the identity of the son-in-law is not easy to use when things like prophets are unknown.

Therefore, Zhen Wu only allowed Shi Leng to take root in Jinan early, and on the surface, he wanted to open up business in the Shandong area, and Shi Leng's business was indeed doing well, barely counting in Jinan City.

But even so, how could the businessman help him attack the city?Even if Shi Leng had a lot of Escort personnel that he secretly trained around him, these personnel might not be of much use in front of the regular army.

As for the point of arranging people to defend Jinan City, Zhen Wu also thought about it, but he really couldn't do it.

Who would know which troops Sheng Yong led to garrison Jinan City?What's more, all military households are registered and have regional restrictions.

He spent half his life in Beiping, and people in other places didn't like him at all, and he couldn't believe it.

Therefore, at the moment, Zhen Wu can at most look forward to whether Shi Leng has bought some of the original defenders of Jinan City.

thought here.

Zhen Wu sighed, and he slowly looked away from Jinan City. Shi Leng is the eldest brother of the third daughter-in-law, and he could enjoy happiness in Beiping City, but because of his words, he came to Jinan City bitterly, and never had anything. To lay a foundation, now I don't know if it can start to work.

If it didn't work at all, and they were still unable to attack for a long time, and returned to Beiping City in despair, it would be too much for Zhen Wu.

And the probability of this seems to be very high.

Speaking of which, after the war broke out, there was a lot of inconvenience in the north-south transportation, and now he didn't know whether Shi Leng was noticed by Tie Xuan or the others.

Zhen Wu couldn't help but sighed again. He pondered this point and guessed it shouldn't be. After all, Zhu Di was not a swallow thief at the time. The new identity he applied for back then was the first time in so many years. Who would have the heart to find out? .

It's just that Shi Leng has often had business contacts with Peiping's own family in recent years, which may attract some attention.

Cao Xiaoman looked at Zhen Wu from the side, not understanding why Zhen Wu would sigh every once in a while. Is there anything to sigh in Jinan City?They fought all the way here, could it be that they were stopped by Jinan City? !

"General right?" Cao Xiaoman reminded Zhen Wu.

Zhen Wu suddenly came back to his senses, and then he stopped thinking about it. He took out the letter of persuasion written by Zhu Di and tied it to the feather arrow, then bent his bow and set the arrow. up.

The strength was so strong that the arrow tail trembled endlessly.

Zhen Wu put down his bow, clapped his hands, then turned his horse's head and led Cao Xiaoman and others back to the camp.

……

A day later, Jinan City responded, and it was indeed as recorded in history. Tie Xuan Shengyong and others had no intention of surrendering to Zhu Di at all. Seeing this, Zhen Wu also gave up his mind, determined to break Shi Leng with all his strength. Jinan city.

At this moment, Zhu Di looked at the letter from Jinan City, but suddenly burst out laughing.

"Good literary talent, really good literary talent. After reading this "On the Duke of Zhou Fu Chengwang", it's really like drinking ice cream. It's a pity that you are mocking me. Otherwise, it should be better, it should be better!"

No one among the generals cares about whether the literary talents are good or not.

Zhu Neng immediately asked in doubt: "Will the city of Jinan surrender?"

Zhu Di nodded and said: "If you don't surrender, it doesn't matter. There is no reason why the mere city of Jinan can't be destroyed. The generals will go down in a while and get ready. The attack will start tomorrow morning. On the day of breaking the city, I will catch this scholar. I want to take a good look at it." This brilliant talent."

"Yes." The generals took orders.

Zhen Wu was a little speechless to Zhu Di. Ever since he defeated Li Jinglong and Zhu Di accepted Ji Gang again, Zhu Di began to think about scholars in his heart.

There is nothing to worry about.

The next moment, Zhu Neng asked, "Your Highness, what is the name of this scholar?"

Only then did Zhu Di come to his senses, read the letter again, and said, "It's called Gao Xianning."

This name is as indifferent to the generals as Zhang San Li Si.

It's just that all the generals have silently recited it twice in their hearts, for fear of forgetting, but Zhu Neng still opened his mouth firmly, as if the city of Jinan could be broken, and said: "Remember, when the city is broken, we will definitely arrest it for His Highness." Come here."

But for Ji Gang who was standing by the side, this name shocked him so much that he was restless.

Gao Xianning is one of the few friends he admits, and even the most important among all friends.

He couldn't help but feel a little worried for Gao Xianning.

But for some reason, he was worried, but an inexplicable feeling of jealousy rose in his heart.

Gao Xianning was taught by a famous teacher since childhood, what about him?He was kicked out of the school by his teacher, but now he risked his life to stop Zhu Di rashly, and finally got a little appreciation from Zhu Di, but Gao Xianning also walked into Zhu Di's heart with only a small essay.

How unfair? !

Ji Gang's mind was muddled for a while, with mixed feelings. He felt that the cruelest thing in the world might be a good friend who treats you very well, but the good one makes you jealous, and then you have to pretend to be magnanimous to congratulate he.

But... Ji Gang also has soaring ambitions!

How can he accept the fact that he is more mediocre than others.

……

After the meeting was over, Zhen Wu began to prepare for the siege. Siege is not a simple task, it requires a lot of equipment, the common ones are ladders, rush carts, hook carts, eight-ox crossbows, artillery, and Xuan chariots. Wait, these instruments all have their own uses, some are used to hit doors, some climb walls, some break walls, and transport soldiers safely to the city.

The ancients were thorough in the study of war.

Every link has equipment to help you achieve your goals.

Gradually it got dark.

Silent all night.

Soon, the sky appeared, and as the barracks became more and more lively, when the soldiers had finished their meals, the army marched to the city of Jinan, and began a brutal siege battle.

one day.

Two days.
