eldest son of Ming dynasty

Jizhou, Zunhua City.

Jizhou is an important town to the east of the capital, and Zunhua is a fortress in Shanhaiguan. Thanks to Zhu Houzhao himself, after he ordered Yang Shangyi to station in Jizhou, he also allocated funds for the repair of the city.

In the current Zunhua City, the city wall is one foot five high, and there are towers on top of the towers. There is also a urn city inside the towers, and a moat is built around the city. Probably something happened recently, and the tripping posts were also moved out.

But now it's a freezing season, and the moat is frozen.

There are a lot of woods along the way, but they are all bare without a single green leaf, only a lot of withered yellow leaves are mixed with the soil after the road surface has melted.

In winter, it is always desolate.

Especially after the mutiny, many high officials in the city were killed. During the turmoil, the soldiers robbed food and silver and caused disasters again. At this time, it already looks like a dilapidated city.

A team of 300 people came up from the official road all the way, and entered the city without encountering any obstacles.

This is the person Yang Shangyi assigned to take over Zunhua City, and his main force has followed Jin Yiwei's intelligence and followed the rebels to Qianxi County.

In accordance with the principle that the guards will not move temporarily, Yang Shangyi has issued an order that the castles and cities in Qianxi and Yongping are not allowed to open their doors to allow the rebels to enter the city!

One is to prevent these restless soldiers and horses from living together, and the other is to make these rebels not even have a turtle shell to hide in!Yang Shangyi is also furious for causing such a big incident!
Xingzhou Zuo Tunwei was stationed in Qianxi County, and the commander of the guard station was named Shi Minghe. After receiving the order from the General Army Mansion, he was terrified, so he hurriedly ordered, "Hurry up! Send our left guards to horses." Call them all back to the city, and then close the city gates!"

Everything was normal in the morning, but it suddenly changed in the afternoon.

It turned out that the two thousand households in Zuo Tunwei had already received the news from Chen Dabao, they wanted to see the attitude of the commander again, but seeing that he carried out the general order to the letter, they knew in their hearts that it was no longer possible to persuade him possible.

Ever since, when Liu Zhong, Chen Scarzi, and Sun Xiong led 5000 people to shout under the city, there was a sudden commotion in Qianxi County.

Shi He refused to surrender, so he gathered hundreds of soldiers and horses to guard his mansion and resolutely refused to surrender.

Chen Dabao was furious, and led a group of people through the now desolate and empty streets to the outside of the mansion, shouting, "What the hell, how many doors are there, and so much effort is required for such a high yard?! Come on with me! I still need to find some dry firewood to burn this bird gate!"

His style is open and close. In fact, this group of soldiers is not a victorious elite. The people inside resist fiercely. Who wants to be the first to die?

But then the wooden door was still burned.

Commander Shi merged two thousand households and more than a dozen hundred households to fight in military uniforms, while outside was the chaotic army rushing in.

But the officers and soldiers arrived faster than they expected.

Firstly, the imperial court had already made preparations, and secondly, with Jin Yiwei leading the way, Yang Shangyi has now arrived ten miles away from Qianxi City.

After a short rest, the [-] troops he led quickly began to encircle the small border town.

This swiftness still shocked the group of rebels. Chen Dasc couldn't care about Shi Zhai and hurriedly found Liu Zhong and Sun Xiong.

"I heard that the officers and soldiers are outside the city?!"

He pushed the door open and entered, his eyes were suddenly flashed by a strong light, and he took a closer look and found that it was a table of gold ingots! !
Around the table, Liu Zhong and Sun Xiong showed some smug and complacent smiles, "With these, even if you and my brothers go far away, it is enough to live the life of a rich man."

"Where did it come from?!" Chen Dabao was also stunned. He laughed again, but couldn't believe it was real. He grabbed a piece and held it up in front of his eyes as if he saw his own mother. "It's real gold!"

Liu Zhong wrapped his arms around their necks, lowered his head, and placed his three heads in front of the gold, "Brother, what am I talking about? Wealth can be found in danger! If you don't take this step, where will you make this wealth?" !"

"Wait, wait." Chen Dabao came to his senses first, "Brother Liu, if you report outside, the officers and soldiers will arrive. That Yang Shangyi has already arrived!"

"I know, ten thousand soldiers and horses."

"Then we?"

Sun Xiong went to the side again, opened two wooden boxes, pointed to the silver inside, and said, "There are five big boxes in total, three big boxes were taken away, and all of them were distributed to brothers. Money touches people's hearts, and only with us can we have silver." Hua, are you afraid they won't die?"

"Then let's have a fight according to what you two want?"

Liu Zhong is not a weak person, on the contrary, he usually has a hot temper, loves to show off his strength, and is also very courageous, otherwise how dare he make trouble this time, "I know that Yang Shangyi, he has three thousand cavalry, we can't escape, Just occupy the city and fight against it!"

"Then these gold..." It was really the first time Chen Dabao saw it, and he couldn't move his eyes.

Why did they fight this battle? In fact, it was not the other two who convinced them, but the red and white things in front of them. If they don't win, how can they run with this thing?Only when you win the battle can you transport it away calmly.

"Come back and watch after you win."

What Sun Xiong said about carrying out the three big boxes of silver is indeed true.

It was opened with a clang in front of thousands of soldiers, and many people's blood was boiling at the sight.

"One head for a silver ingot! If you kill someone and protect yourself, then the silver is ours. If you can't kill or defeat, all these must be sent to the capital for the little emperor to enjoy alone! Brothers, what do you think we should do? ?!”

"kill!"

"kill!"

"kill!"

In recent years, the winter has become colder and colder, but the cold weather can't freeze the fragrance of silver. With this thing to open the way, 3000 people guarded the four gates of Qianxi City's southeast, southeast, north, and west.

The city walls are covered with ice, plus walking in a hurry, it is easy to fall, it is really a goddamn weather.

"Ouch!!"

"Don't come up if you are too old, or you will fall to your death!"

Liu Zhong took down the original Ming army flag and temporarily put up a "tiger" flag, which was a bit thin.

But the outside of the city is different. The neat and orderly army is divided into left, middle and right armies. There are cavalry in front, infantry in the back, and the commander is in the middle.

Bang!
Bang bang!

At some point, rhythmic drumming began.

Offensive!
Rumbling shouts began to resound through the world, and the arrows that rained all over the sky seemed to fall from the sky.

Some soldiers who hadn't fought for many years saw the arrow getting closer and closer until it fell, and their faces were already pale.

"what!!!"

Liu Zhong poked his head out from the middle of the shield and found that the infantry was charging collectively below. He ordered, "Throw the stone!"

This kind of collision seemed to be very violent, as if there were corpses all over the place in the blink of an eye.

As expected, Jizhou cannot avoid this day!
……

……

In the capital, the news of the military chaos was brewing for a day and a night, and finally, with the appearance of a more intense imperial decree, it immediately caused a shock as soon as he was born.

Several personal guards guarding the imperial city stepped up inspections, and the [-]th Regiment Battalion also took over the gates of the capital. The entry and exit of merchants began to be affected. The day before was fine, but the next day they would start to be questioned.

From time to time, a group of armored warriors could rush out of the streets and alleys. According to the imperial decree, the imperial court must first send [-] soldiers to Jizhou. [-] is an approximate number, basically six guards.In addition to these, there must be a food transport team of thousands of people, as well as horses and vehicles.

There is Jingcang near the capital, which was built for this time.

In addition, there are domestic funds. Zhu Houzhao also took out the 300 million taels of sea trade silver he had saved in Zhengde for three years and four years. It is uncomfortable to help corrupt officials defile him.

"Qi Chengsui, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, is familiar with military affairs and has great talents. He can lead troops to go out to obey the king's orders. Chang Fei, commander of the left guard of Tengxiang, and Wang Xuan of Weining Bo, can serve as lieutenants. The veteran believes that as long as the imperial army is together, the chaos will be inevitable. Instantly vanished."

There was a precedent for civil servants leading troops in the Ming Dynasty. Wang Yue and Wang Shouren were actually civil servants.So Zhu Houzhao didn't think it was impossible.

Qi Chengsui has fought several battles with Yang Yiqing, and he is familiar with military affairs. This is not nonsense. The main reason is that this battle is not a decisive battle between large armies, so he should be more than enough.

After Yang Yiqing finished this paragraph, he waited quietly for the emperor's voice.

Zhu Houzhao just thought about it for a while, and soon agreed, "Let's draw up an order."
