dawn.

The sky is turning white, a glimmer of light rises, the cold wind is howling, and when the sky seems to be dark, it is the coldest time, so cold that people can't stop shivering.

crackle~

The burning bonfire made a sound, and the heat wave hit, seeming to drive away the chill, but it was half cold and half hot. Only you knew the feeling best.

"I don't know what is happening to the remnants of the rebel army that are chasing us."

In a bonfire, Zhu Yujian, who had not slept all night, looked up at the rising sun in the sky, glanced at the drowsy Zhu Changzi, Zhu Youdong and his party, and said to Zhu Youjian sitting next to him.

"It's time for results."

Zhu Youjian looked back and said in a low voice: "The imperial team sent by the emperor's brother is very strong. It is several times larger than our own rebel army. They suppressed it at the beginning of the battle."

"Even under the cover of night, it still bursts out with extremely strong combat power. Let alone chasing down a group of remnants, such a strong army will definitely be able to fight against the rampant rebels on the battlefield. To defeat the enemy."

"That's for sure!"

Zhu Yujian said with some excitement: "If our Ming Dynasty can have more powerful troops like this, not to mention the rampant rebels, even the Mongolian Tatars in northern Xinjiang and the chieftains in the southwest can be suppressed!"

Thinking of the battle last night, Zhu Yujian couldn't hide his excitement. The battle lasted only a quarter of an hour when the imperial team sent out someone to send back news, indicating that the rebel army that harassed the emperor showed signs of defeat.

All the civil and military personnel waiting in front of the emperor, including Sun Zushou, who had been on the battlefield for a long time, were all shocked after hearing this. This was a night battle, not a battle during the day. It is simply unbelievable that the imperial team that went out to fight could perform like this. .

You must know that in this era, due to the scarcity of materials, people are no different from blind people at night. Night blindness is very common in the Ming Dynasty.

Therefore, night battles rarely occurred during this period.

Whenever there is a night battle, even if the invading enemy can be defeated, the losses to the subordinates will be great. There is no way, fighting during the day and fighting at night are two completely different concepts.

Therefore, for battle-hardened warriors, unless they are forced into a desperate situation, they will never choose to fight at night, because night fighting is often directly linked to uncontrollability.

For military commanders, uncontrollability is directly linked to failure. Anything can happen on the battlefield, and accidents always occur inadvertently.

Under such a situation, Zhu Youxiao issued a decree not to let anyone go, and then the rebel army that harassed Shimen Town was beaten and fled in all directions, and the imperial troops who went out to fight came out to pursue them.

It was a long night for many.

"Your Majesty, please come into the tent and have a rest."

Outside the imperial tent, beside a bonfire, Lu Jiude looked worried, looked at Zhu Youxiao, who was wearing a big cloak, and whispered: "You haven't slept all night, I'm afraid the dragon body can't bear it, Your Majesty... "

"No problem."

Zhu Youxiao stretched out his hand to light the fire and said with a very calm expression: "I'm not sleepy. I have to wait for those boys to return in triumph. Are the breakfasts ready for them?"

"Ready."

Lu Jiude hurriedly said: "When those guys return in triumph, they will have hot meals."

"Ah."

Zhu Youxiao responded and said nothing else.

That night, Zhu Youxiao thought a lot. In addition to firming up what he had thought in the past, how to ensure absolute loyalty to the strong army he created.

This is what Zhu Youxiao thinks about the most.

This time I left Beijing to patrol the border, but did not go to Sanhe, Jizhou and other places. I arrested and executed a group of people in public trials, which caused so much trouble.

The above experiences made Zhu Youxiao understand that he wants to do more. As long as he touches more interests, all kinds of nasty things will happen one after another!

What about the emperor?

In this era of collapse of order and chaos, if the emperor cannot control the power of Xiao Xiao, the end will not be good! !

"His Majesty!!"

While Zhu Youxiao was thinking, a voice sounded, which attracted the attention of many people, and they saw Sun Zushou with a serious expression walking quickly towards the imperial court.

This made Zhang Qingzhen, Wei Shitai and others who had been standing around look at Sun Zushou approaching with vigilance. The successive assassinations made their hearts tense.

"Did you identify it?"

Zhu Youxiao stood up slowly, looked at Sun Zushou walking towards him, and said calmly.

At this moment, not only Zhang Qingzhen and others gathered in front of the imperial court, but Zhu Youjian, Zhu Yujian and others, Shen Tingyang, Li Yan and other study ministers all got up and walked towards the imperial court.

They all wanted to know what kind of audacious person actually dared to assassinate the emperor! !

"Identified."

Facing the countless gazes, Sun Zushou said with a serious expression: "A group of these traitors who were killed by the imperial elite were members of Dongsheng Right Guards."

A word stirred up a thousand waves.

Everyone who heard this said was shocked. Although some people seemed to have the answer in their hearts, but when these words came out of Sun Zushou's mouth and were verified, the situation was different.

"I have inspected Dongsheng Youwei before."

Sun Zushou frowned and said: "I was ordered by the Liaodong Economic Strategy Office to clean up the garrison around Jizhou Town. I know some people from Dongsheng Youwei. Among those who were killed, there was one from Dongsheng Youwei." The famous commander Qian Shi, and several thousand households, hundreds of households, the ministers also repeatedly identified..."

When talking about this, Sun Zushou stopped.

This thing is simply too shocking.

A guard station under the jurisdiction of the Ming Dynasty actually dared to send troops to assassinate the emperor of the Ming Dynasty. The key is that it is not afraid of such treasonous actions. If this spreads out, God knows what kind of storm will be caused.

"Sure enough, it's just as I guessed."

Zhu Youxiao smiled and said with sharp eyes: "It seems that I did the right thing this time when I left Beijing to patrol the border. The imperial court spent so much food and salary, but I didn't expect that a bunch of traitors would come out."

"Okay, that's great."

"It seems that the things discovered in Sanhe and Jizhou are not limited to Sanxie 12th Road under the jurisdiction of Jizhou Town. I'm afraid other places won't be much better!!"

Upon hearing this, all the civil and military officials standing in front of the emperor showed complicated expressions.

"Brother Emperor~"

"Your Majesty~"

Zhu Youjian and Zhu Yujian wanted to say something, but were interrupted by Zhu Youxiao.

"Two studies!!"

"I'm waiting here!"

Shen Tingyang, Li Yan and other ministers from the two study halls all came forward to bow to him.

"Give it to the capital, to the cabinet, to the Ministry of War, to the Rong government, to the Ji Liao Governor's Mansion, to the Liaodong Economic and Strategy Mansion, and to the world!"

Zhu Youxiao's eyes were sharp and he said: "Write down for me exactly what happened when I was assassinated by traitors while patrolling the border. I want to see who is so bold and daring to despise me and the court. Such a treasonous act!”

"The ministers obey the order."

Shen Tingyang, Li Yan and others responded one after another, but at this moment, everyone knew that the matter was getting serious, and the emperor was going to investigate thoroughly! !
