Daming: I asked you to hang yourself, but I didn’t ask you to rebuild the Ming Dynasty

Zhu Youjian sneered: "Li Zicheng has no time, and Yuan Zongdi, as one of the five camp leaders under Li Zicheng, will always follow Li Zicheng no matter how he rises or falls. Therefore, as long as he gets the news that Li Zicheng is about to fail, he will inevitably Return to rescue Li Zicheng!"

Everyone was stunned.

His Majesty told them that the Donglu from the north had gone south, but Wu Sangui had already colluded with the Donglu.

They had deduced in detail that if Li Zicheng only had the few soldiers and horses in his hands, he would not be able to defeat Wu Sangui and Donglu.

"Your Majesty, do you mean to tell Yuan Zongdi about the Donglu invasion?"

Zhu Youjian nodded: "As long as he knows this news, Yuan Zongdi will definitely go north to rescue Li Zicheng!"

This is what Yuan Zongdi did in history.

After he put down Liu Hongqi, drove Zuo Liangyu away, regained Nanyang again, and helped Bai Wang stabilize the situation, news of Li Zicheng's defeat happened to come.

So Yuan Zongdi did not bother to kill Zuo Liangyu, and immediately returned to the north to participate in the Shaanxi War...

In other words, as long as the news of Li Zicheng's imminent defeat is revealed to Yuan Zongdi, then he will return to the savior. In this way, their game of chess will be alive.

Of course, the premise is that Zhu Youjian must hurt Yuan Zongdi and let him know that he will not be able to defeat the Ming army for a while.

Fang Yuegong stood up: "Your Majesty, please go to Yuan Zong's camp!"

Since His Majesty is sure that Yuan Zongdi will go north, then he is willing to be the envoy!

"No!"

Zhu Youjian waved his hand: "Eat the first part of Yuan Zong first, and then wait until it hurts Yuan Zongdi!"

He sneered: "Although war is just a continuation of politics, if there is no victory in the war, we will not get what we want at the negotiation table!"

Zhu Youjian pointed to the north:

“Yesterday morning, we got the news that Yuan Zongdi entered Zijingguan.

According to time calculation, by this time, most of Yuan Zongdi's troops had already left the ancient Shangyu Road!

But it is difficult for merchants to travel on ancient roads, and their food and grass..."

Qiyu Town at the exit of Xichuan, Nanyang, the ancient business road

Fan Jingwen's eyes lit up: "Your Majesty, do you mean to seize Yuan Zongdi's food and grass?"

"Old Fan Ge is too arrogant!" Wang Jiayan raised his eyebrows: "Even if his food and grass are burned, Yuan Zongdi will not be able to jump up!"

"Of course!" He suddenly smiled: "If we can seize the opportunity to seize Wuguan, we will probably flatten him and round him up!"

Fan Jingwen pointed at Wang Jiayan's nose:

"How dare you, Shilang Wang, to say that I have a big heart. You are not a small heart either!"

"Ha ha!"

The crowd laughed.

Niu Chenghu and Niu Wancai were the first to say:

"Your Majesty, we are willing to go and win the battle!

Yuan Zongdi had camped in the Dengzhou area before and was relatively familiar with us. Most of the generals under Yuan Zongdi knew us.

As long as the two of us go under the original banner, we will definitely take the opportunity to seize Wuguan! "

Zhu Youjian nodded, patted the two of them on the shoulders, and said seriously:

"You two gentlemen, please be careful in everything you do. If it doesn't work out, there's no need to force it."

Zhu Youjian took a deep breath and said with a sincere expression: "The safety of these two generals is far better than that of ten martial arts passes!"

"There are so many inns and checkpoints along the ancient Shangyu Road, you two can just grab any one!"

When Niu Chenghu and Niu Wancai saw His Majesty showing his true feelings, their eyes couldn't stop feeling sore and they almost shed tears.

Your Majesty attaches so much importance to them, even if you die, you will be satisfied!

Zhu Youjian continued:

"As long as the two generals can capture one pass and one post, I can get benefits from Yuan Zongdi!"

Politics is nothing more than blowing the pair of mistresses in your hands into king bombs, and then pretending to be a mistress with four twos...

Zhu Youjian whispered a few instructions in the ears of the two of them, and Niu Chenghu and the other two were stunned...

The cold sweat on my forehead couldn't stop falling...

The emperor is so evil...

Fortunately they surrendered, otherwise, they would have been killed!

Waving to the two men to select soldiers and horses, and setting off immediately, Zhu Youjian looked at the ministers.

He continued: "It's not enough to just seize the ancient Shangyu Road. Who is willing to burn Yuan Zongdi's food and grass on my behalf?"

There are only two ancient Shang-Yu Roads. One is along the Danjiang Waterway and enters Nanyang via Zijingguan. The other is the dry road through Qiyu Town in Xichuan.

Yuan Zongdi's food and grass are very easy to find!

Wang Guo stood up excitedly and said: "Your Majesty, in terms of arson, who else can have as many tricks as us, apart from us, the Imperial Guards?"

Although investigating hundreds of officials is a major task for Jinyiwei, spying on intelligence from enemy countries, assassinating people, and setting fires are also compulsory tasks for Jinyiwei!

When Emperor Wanli was fighting against the Japanese, their Jin Yiwei did a lot of good deeds!

Although the Jinyiwei have not been taken seriously over the years, and His Majesty has even eliminated some of them, the ability of the Jinyiwei to take care of the house has never been forgotten by those of them who have been Jinyiwei for generations!

As Wang Guoxing stood up, Li Ruogui and Gao Wencai also stood up.

Killings and arson, who else would be left without my royal guards?

The craftsmanship passed down by our ancestors cannot be thrown away!

The five Zhang family brothers and others also stood up, shouting that they also wanted to go.

Zhu Youjian thought for a while and decided to leave it to a few people from Jinyiwei to do this job. To be safe, he asked Zhang Luofu, a marksman, to follow him.

At the same time, he ordered several people to take away all the people within five miles of the surrounding area and ten miles to the north from here.

And he specifically stated that only threats are allowed, no actions are allowed!

After the arrangements were made, Zhu Youjian's troops were divided into three parts and left separately.

Except for Zhu Youjian's headquarters, the other two departments walked along the dirt road on the top of the high hill for several miles.

It had just rained a few days ago, and it was not the busy farming season, so there were no heavy vehicles passing by.

These loess roads have long been exposed to the sun and become as hard as iron!

The war horses trampled on the hard loess road, leaving no trace at all.

But Zhu Youjian turned west and went straight to Laohekou in Hubei Province in later generations.

At this time, it was called Guanghua County.

This place is located at the end of the southern branch of the Funiu Mountains, a branch of the Qinling Mountains, and on the edge of the Nanyang Basin. The terrain is high in the north and low in the south, sloping from northwest to southeast, with several "chicken claw"-shaped hills extending to the southeast.

Three types of terrain are formed: hills, flat hills and plains.

The place Zhu Youjian was going to was a remnant of the Qinling Mountains near the Han River.

This is the place where Laohekou and Danjiangkou meet in later generations.

There, rocky mountains run parallel to the Han River, but the mountains stand tall and towering on the alluvial plain beside the river.

The impact plain between the two is only a few dozen feet at its narrowest point!

Nearly ten miles long!

The corners of Zhu Youjian's mouth raised with an intriguing sneer.

But it really is the best place for an ambush!

……

Yuan Zongdi led his men to chase them all the way. Looking at the horse's hoof prints that suddenly turned to the west, his brows furrowed slightly.

Emperor Ming went straight to the Han River?
