Gou in Daming, I was overheard by Zhu Yuanzhang

Jiayuguan City Head.

Chen Ping, the commander of the Ningxia Zhongwei, said with a sullen face: "General Zhu, General Gu, what do you mean?"

Zhu Neng laughed: "General Chen, we are ordered by King Yan to take over Jiayuguan."

Chen Ping said angrily: "The order of King Yan? It is His Highness King Qing who is guarding Jiayuguan! King Yan is far away in Beiping, is he stretching his hand too far?"

Zhu Neng pointed at the sergeant with his horsewhip: "The name of the king of Yan is powerful in Mobei! As soon as our army appeared, Mu Zha'er fled in anticipation of the wind! Jiayuguan must not be lost, and it is the best policy for our army to take care of it. .”

"General Chen, I advise you to go back to Ningxia with King Qing."

"Autumn is here, you have to prevent small groups of enemies from going to Ningxia to attack Grass Valley."

Chen Ping's temperament is relatively peaceful. Seeing Zhu Neng being so arrogant, he couldn't help getting angry: "If it is His Majesty's order, I, Chen Ping, will leave now. Let me go, King Yan doesn't have the right yet!"

Zhu Neng said: "You King Qing agrees!"

Chen Ping became suspicious, King Qing agreed?
There is such a possibility!
King Qing stayed in Jiayuguan for a while, and when he heard the news that [-] Ming soldiers had died in the desert, his face turned pale with fright, and he was about to cry.

Immediately, he ran to Ganzhou City with Shi Zhou Jishi, the right chief of the palace, and lived in Wu Wangfu.

Thinking of this, Chen Ping felt that it was not worth staying here!
Staying here means planting someone else's land and leaving your own field uncultivated.

Another point is that King Qing and King Yan have always been very good, and there is no need for him to tear himself apart with King Yan's subordinates.

Chen Pingdao: "I'm going to Ganzhou, please celebrate the king's order. Jiayuguan, please leave to General Zhu for the time being!"

"let's go!"

Chen Ping cupped his fists, turned his head and left.

"General Chen is indeed straightforward, and I will speak kindly for you in front of His Royal Highness Yan!" Zhu Neng stood on the top of the wall full of ambition.

Just today, a sea holly flew over from Beiping, bringing with it an order from the King of Yan: control Jiayuguan, strangle the east-west traffic, and do not allow any living things to pass through!

After receiving the order, Zhu Neng went straight to Jiayuguan without waiting for Wu Kaishan and others to return.

Just in time, Zhu Neng got the help of another thousand attached troops.

Wu Bozong and Guqina are back.

Wu Bozong asked for a thousand fine horsemen to escort a magic weapon to Peiping.

As long as this magical weapon is delivered to King Yan, no one in the world can stop it, and the situation will be settled immediately.

Zhu Neng felt that the matter was of great importance, so he allocated [-] elite horsemen to Wu Bozong, including [-] of his own guards.

Chen Ping led his men to gallop to Ganzhou, and met King Qing at Wu Wangfu.

When King Qing heard the news from Chen Ping, he was very pleased.

He said to Shi Zhou Jishi, the right-hand chief of the palace, who was standing by the side, "Jishi, this matter has been done very well!"

After King Qing learned that [-] Ming troops were trapped in the desert, he asked Zhou Jishi to pass the news to King Yan so that King Yan could prepare early.

Who would have thought that the news would reach King Yan so quickly!

King Yan actually let Gu Qina, who came to help the war, take over Jiayuguan. King Yan was indeed King Yan, and he acted vigorously and resolutely without procrastination.

Zhou Jishi is also extremely efficient!

Zhou Jishi was a little confused, Yan Wang actually sent troops to take over Jiayuguan!

The news sent to King Yan that day was delivered quickly, no matter what, it was impossible to arrive within two days!
The message to the capital that day was delivered by flying pigeons, which was of course faster than horses.

At this time, the news should have not reached the capital, so why did King Yan in Pingbei receive it?

too weird!

King Qing said: "Let the people of King Yan guard Jiayuguan, and we will stay in Ganzhou for now."

Chen Ping wondered: "Since the people of King Yan are allowed to guard Jiayuguan, why should we stay in Ganzhou? This is King Wu's territory."

King Qing said: "Don't worry, Prince Wu's Mansion will soon become Prince Qing's Mansion."

In King Qing's view, the world will soon belong to King Yan.

With the merit of reporting the letter, King Wu's fief will definitely be his own when the time comes!
Zhu Yunxi's army slowly advanced towards Hami City.

When there was still a hundred miles away from Hami City, Xu Huaijin proposed to hold a pre-war meeting.

Zhu Yunxi agreed that if this meeting was not held, others would doubt his ability to control.

Don't look too clumsy either.

Ping An, Chang Sheng, Chang Sen, Lan Shou, Mao Yi and others all arrived.

Zhu Yuanzhang also sat in the tent.

"Let's all talk about it. Everyone has a speech, about the judgment of the situation, the preparations for the siege, the coordination of the troops, etc." Zhu Yunxi said.

Ping An said: "I thought our army would encounter the biggest difficulty since the Western Expedition. According to the news from the scouts, Hami City is very difficult to attack."

Everyone has heard the news.

Hami City is the largest city after leaving Yumen in the west.

In the past, it used to be a transfer station, trading station, and supply station for various ministries in the Western Regions to pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty.

Merchants, envoys, fakirs, missionaries, etc. of all skin colors and languages ​​gathered in this city.

In the city, there are barracks and horse farms, post houses, inns, restaurants and foot shops, etc., which are very prosperous.

And the city of Hami is divided into four gates.

There are many nomadic peoples in the Hami Basin. They are all born warriors, and they can fight with a sword on their horses.

There is no shortage of soldiers for the guards of Hami City.

The Ming army, like before, lacked large siege equipment and enough arrows.

And there are several weapons shops in Hami City, and their arrow branches are completely sufficient.

Although the Hami Basin is rich in water and grass, there are no big trees, and even a ladder cannot be built.

Lan Shou said: "I think we are still optimistic. We always feel that the barbarians will defend the city. Their strength is not to defend the city, but to attack in the wild."

"Perhaps when we reach the city of Hami, they are already in formation outside the city."

Mao Yi said: "General Lan, I thought they would not dare to go out of the city to fight us. Because they have already experienced the power of the Firearms Battalion."

"Unless they figure out a way to counter our segmented fire."

Chang Sen said: "It would be great if there were a few more excavators."

Lan Shou laughed and said, "The Huren's excavator was probably built by the whole family. It ended up being thrown to us."

Xu Huaijin said: "Without siege equipment, we can postpone the siege."

Xu Huaijin pointed to the map and said, "We have to make a long-term plan. If we can't attack for a while, we will besiege them!"

Siege?

"I suggest that 4 people guard the four city gates and cut off the supply of the Hu people outside the city. The firearms battalion should be deployed at the main gate."

"The remaining 2 people cut off the water source in Hami!"

"There are two rivers passing through the city of Hami, one is the big Liutiao River and the other is the small Baiyang River."

"Block these two rivers."

"Even if there is food in the city, it won't last for a few days without water."

"If the Hu people can dig wells, when the water accumulates to a certain level, they can open the gates and release the water, flooding Hami City!"

Everyone looked at each other, and Master Xu's method was the safest one.

If the Hu people rush out, we have the cooperation of the firearms battalion and the cavalry, and the Hu people will not dare to come out.

If the Hu people stay in the city, then use Xu Junshi's method to surround them!
Look at the map again, it is very feasible.

After discussing the plan, everyone had a plan in mind, and they headed towards Hami confidently.

Soon, a majestic city wall and tower appeared.

"Look, Wuna Shili is standing on the tower." Xu Huaijin said.

"It seems that Wu Nashili has been prepared for a long time." Zhu Yunxi laughed.

Xu Huaijin thought to himself, it's no wonder Wu Na Shili was unprepared!

The distance from Heifengchuan to Hami City is nearly 20 miles, and you, King Wu, have been walking for [-] days!

No matter how stupid Wu Nashili is, no matter how stupid he is, he should know that you, King Wu, led an army to arrest him!

If people are not ready, are they waiting for you to catch them?

Chang Sheng picked up the binoculars and exclaimed in surprise, "My God, Wuna Shili is dead!"

Zhu Yunxi was taken aback, no way, Wuna Shili at the top of the city is dead!
Wu Nashili died, and the Western Expedition ended here!

At most, Hami was occupied, and the task entrusted by His Majesty to capture Wu Nashili had not yet been completed.

Want to occupy and control the Western Regions?I lost my guide!Lost transport captain!All the soldiers will also lose the motivation to go west!
