Great Eunuch of the Ming Dynasty

"But why does Qianhu always provoke Wang Zongzhen with his words?" Ding Yuyu asked the doubt that had been pent up in his heart for a long time.

"Hahaha, because I just like others to see me as unhappy and act like I have nothing to do. You don't know how enjoyable that feeling is, hahaha!" Ding Bubulu laughed.

Chapter 48 Supreme Fall

Chapter 48 Supreme Fall

The wind in Mobei was blowing, and the soil was blowing up and the grass seeds were all over the sky. Tens of thousands of cavalry were slowly marching towards the south in the wind and sand.

A big man in red chain mail rode a black horse and galloped from behind to a red horse in the middle of the team. He stopped the horse. The big man clasped his fist at the old man in a bamboo hat and armor on the red horse, and said : "My lord, let's pay homage to the Supreme Lord first!"

This old man turned out to be the Supreme, so this old man with a pale but dark complexion is the Supreme Zhu Di. Zhu Di said to the chain armored man, "I'll do it first. What can you do with me? Isn't it a well-established plan?" Are you planning to go to the target Yumu River and go home?"

"My lord, it's a crime to do the soil first! If it wasn't for the minister's advice to the lord to conquer Mobei, our 10,000+ army wouldn't have wandered on the grassland for more than three months without finding anything! A war without spoils is simply It is not considered a victory, please the supreme minister to commit the crime of slander!" Ye Xiantugan cupped his fists again on the horse and begged bitterly.

"Hey~ It's not your fault, this Beiyuan is torn apart, even if you can't find the remaining forces of Beiyuan this time, at least it will give them a certain deterrent, you see, they know that they can't deal with my Daming The army was so frightened that they hid themselves, hahaha! Why did you do it first?” Zhu Di laughed, and took out a elixir from his bosom, and swallowed it.

Eunuch Haishou, the young supervisor of the Imperial Horse Supervisor, hurriedly took off the water bottle from his saddle, handed it to Zhu Di, and said, "Your Majesty, drink some water!"

Zhu Di licked his chapped lips, shook his head and said, "I'm taking the elixir handed down by Emperor Zhenwu, how can I just drink it with water? It's unreasonable!"

"Please be restrained, my lord. None of the lords who have swallowed elixirs since ancient times can truly live forever. This is an eternal truth!" A thin old man in a Confucian long robe riding a white horse next to Haishou persuaded.

"Yang Rong, Yang Rong, as the chief assistant of the cabinet, you are in charge of the country's government affairs. Don't you have so little knowledge? Don't talk too much. I have deep meaning in refining alchemy." Zhu Di looked at Yang Rong and said seriously .

Yang Rong, as a scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion and the chief assistant of the cabinet, can be said to be a big boss. Seeing that the Supreme Being couldn't be persuaded, he could only shake his head and sigh, and bowed his head in silence. His old body wanted to go north to Mobei, so he didn't intend to follow him, but Supreme told himself that it would be a good way to relieve work pressure after dealing with government affairs for a long time, so he followed Supreme to eat on the grassland. The sand and dust that has been there for more than three months is simply terrible.

While a group of people were talking and laughing, a group of about 1 Tatar cavalry hid here under a hill not far away.

"Captain Wan, how long do we need to hide until we are tall? If a man is going to wander in the desert for a year, should we hide here for half a year?" A commander asked Wan Fu.

"Hide for what? The high priest said, there is no need to hide this time, listen to my orders for a while, and start the whole team to attack the men's army. Just run in all directions after charging once. Be sure to run in all directions, so that the men will not chase us. , This is what the high priest said, let’s just do it.” Although the words of the commander-in-chief were not very understandable to the commander-in-chief, the strict hierarchy of the Tatars made them strictly follow the instructions of their superiors. perform tasks.

When the Ming cavalry troop climbed a hill, the long troop was divided into two by the hill, and the Tatar cavalry hidden under the hill launched a charge against the first half of the Ming cavalry.

"Come on! Kill all the men!" "Kill all the men! Take revenge for your people!" The Tatar cavalry shouted the slogan of revenge and rushed towards the exhausted Ming cavalry.

"Enemy attack!" "It's the Tartars! Kill the Tartars!" The well-trained Ming cavalry responded quickly, and began to charge towards the Tatar cavalry, brandishing their horses and spears. ,

The vigorous Tatar cavalry had great strength, and the impact of the horses was also great, while the cavalry of Ming Dynasty had been riding for a day, and the cavalry and horses were very tired.When the two groups collided, blood spurted, limbs and broken arms flew all over the sky, and the broken gun shafts and curly swords were trampled on the ground by the horses' hooves, sinking deep into the soil and turning into a part of the grassland.

"Damn the man, kill him!"

"Damn the Tartars, kill them!"

The interweaving of blood and sweat formed a huge picture on the ground. The red-eyed Tatar cavalry had forgotten the order of Captain Wan, and slashed and killed the Ming cavalry frantically.But Ming's cavalry knew that Zhizun was behind them. If they retreated, Zhizun would be in danger. They could only fight back with exhausted bodies and spirits.

"My lord, the front cavalry was attacked by Tatar cavalry and urgently needs reinforcements!" A messenger came to Zhu Di's horse and said anxiously.

At this time, without waiting for Zhu Di to speak, Haishou, the young supervisor of the imperial horse supervisor who is the supervisor of the Northern Expedition, hastily said: "The rear army presses up and reinforces the front!"

"Yes!" The messenger went down to pass the order, and then the rear army began to speed up the hill and charged towards the Tatar cavalry.

Seeing this, the Tatar commander hurriedly shouted: "Retreat! Retreat!"

The soldiers of the Tatar Commander-in-Chief dispersed, went to each thousand-man team and shouted: "Retreat! Retreat! Scatter and retreat according to plan!"

Seeing the tragic battlefield in front of him, Zhu Di felt a little dark in front of his eyes, and asked Ye Xiantu, "How about the casualties of the former army?"

Yexian Tugan looked gloomy, and replied: "Qi Your Majesty, the former army probably suffered about half of the casualties."

The Tatar cavalry finally retreated, and Haishou was about to order the Daming cavalry to chase after him when he heard Yang Rong's shout from not far away: "My lord! What's wrong with you, my lord?"

Haishou hurried over and saw Zhu Di lying on the ground with a trace of blood on the corner of his mouth.Haishou scrambled down from his horse, knelt down in front of Zhu Di, supported Zhu Di's upper body, and called out, "My lord, my lord, what's wrong with you?"

Zhu Di slowly opened his eyes, looked at Yang Rong and Haishou, and said with difficulty: "Ai Qing is right, it is better not to take this pill, I guess it will not work, the supreme position is passed on Prince Zhu Gaochi, I hope that Aiqing can help with all her heart so that the people of Ming Dynasty can live a good life." After speaking, looking at the statue of Emperor Zhenwu on the top of the hat and helmet next to him, he lost his breath.

"Supreme!!!" Everyone fell to their knees and wailed.

After a while, Haishou issued the military order, and the whole army hurried to Yumuchuan, and made a decision after arriving in Yumuchuan.

Chapter 49 Reporting

Chapter 49 Reporting

The Daming barracks in Yumuchuan occupies a very large area, and the equipment inside is very complete. It can be said to be a very high-end barracks. After all, the barracks owner this time is Supreme himself.

The infantry team returned to the camp a month ago under the leadership of the old cabinet minister Jin Youzi and General Wu'anhou Zheng Heng. After all, the infantry was very tired after sweeping the grassland for more than two months.

Today is the day when the cavalry troops return to the camp, Ge Lao Jin Youzi and Wu'an Marquis Zheng Heng waited outside the camp early, intending to wash the dust off for Supreme, and sweep away his fatigue.

As a result, after waiting for a long time, the cavalry did not come back. Zheng Heng, Marquis of Wu'an, couldn't help becoming anxious, and said, "Old man of the Golden Pavilion, it's already this hour, why hasn't the cavalry army returned to the camp yet? Weird, weird!"

"Marquis of Wu'an, don't be in a hurry, maybe something has delayed you on the way?" Jin Youzi stroked his beard and shook his head.

Zheng Heng, Marquis of Wu'an, was about to speak when he heard the sound of horseshoes coming from the north.

"Finally back! But why is the sound of horseshoes so urgent?" Marquis Zheng Heng of Wu'an listened carefully for a while, wondering.

"It's probably because seeing Daying is emotional, so I can't help but quicken my pace!" Jin Youzi analyzed.

When the figure of the Ming cavalry appeared in the sight of the two, their expressions became very ugly.

Half an hour later, in the camp's handsome tent.

"Supreme! Why don't you let the old minister see you for the last time!" Jin Youzi wailed as he knelt in front of a simple coffin, tears from the corners of his eyes fell on the lapel of his clothes.

"This Marquis will let the whole army wear mourning and pay homage to the Supreme!" Wu'an Marquis Zheng Heng said in a low tone with a melancholy face.

"No! The Fall of the Supreme must not be spread, don't be messed up by someone with a heart!" Yang Rong said solemnly.

Hearing this, Jin Youzi also nodded, and said: "The feudal lords from all over the world are a little cautious, and the princes are also very concerned about the position of supreme, so we have to guard against it!"

"My lords, why don't we let our family go to Beijing to report the funeral of Prince Zhu Gaochi, so that the prince can make thorough preparations!" Eunuch Haishou, the young supervisor of the Yumajian, looked around at the few big men in front of him, and said Said.

Yang Rong and Jin Youzi looked at each other, nodded, and said, "That's the only way to go. I hope that Eunuch Hai can inform His Royal Highness as soon as possible, otherwise our Ming Dynasty will not be able to withstand the turmoil of the supremacy dispute."

"My lords, please don't worry, our family is ready to go!" Hai Shou is also a resolute character, he immediately cupped his hands, then came to the supreme coffin, kowtowed a few times, got up and turned his head towards the outside of the big tent go.

After a cup of tea, there was a sound of horseshoes fading away outside the big tent. Haishou led more than a dozen eunuchs and eunuchs and galloped towards the direction of Beijing city.

After half a month of running around, Haishou and others finally arrived outside Beijing overnight.

"Drive! Drive!"

The general flag on duty above the city gate shouted down: "Who is it? It's not yet dawn! The city gate can't be opened for the time being, let's wait until dawn!"

"Our family is Haishou, the young supervisor of the Imperial Horse Supervisor. This is our family's token and emergency documents. Open the city gate quickly!" Under the light of the torch, Haishou's face looked very hideous and terrifying, which made unfamiliar People are a little scared when they see it.
