The eldest grandson of Emperor Ming Dynasty!

Chapter 568 The Irritable Zhu Yuanzhang
This may be the most difficult moment in Zhu Di's life.

At the same time, Zhu Di also felt somewhat regretful.

The early campaign was too smooth, which also made Zhu Di want to go deeper and achieve greater success.

It's just that he has forgotten that the grassland is not his home field, and there is nowhere to hide from the endless plain.

The falcon in the high altitude of Beiyuan is like a maggot attached to the bone, and there is no possibility of getting rid of it.

Perhaps in the era of Genghis Khan, there were bows to shoot big eagles, but now everyone uses light bows, and the shooting range is completely out of reach.

This also made Falcon even more unscrupulous.

"This falcon is really a good thing. In the future, this king will definitely raise a few."

While escaping, Zhu Di said with a sigh.

Zhang Yu looked sad, and looked back from time to time, and could vaguely see the Mongolian cavalry chasing them.

"My lord, I will not be able to follow you around in the future."

Zhang Yu's eyes flashed brightly, and he said with a bit of sadness in his tone.

Zhu Di immediately understood Zhang Yu's meaning, and said in a deep voice, "My king forbids it!"

The current Zhu Neng has already lost an arm. If Zhang Yu breaks it here again, it will mean that his left arm and right arm are gone.

This will really hurt Zhu Di's vitality in the future.

If there are no soldiers, you can practice again, but if you want to have such a general, it will be extremely difficult.

"But."

"No but!!!"

The wind was roaring, and Zhu Di interrupted Zhang Yu's words almost in a roar.

"They don't dare to do anything to this king. Even if you delay for some time now, it doesn't make any sense. With a hundred horses, you can block a few breaths."

"With a few breaths of effort, can this king be able to put on wings and fly away?"

"If they are captured, they will be captured together. With this king around, they don't dare to do anything to him, and they have to serve him with good wine and good meat."

"This king is here, so your life is naturally safe."

"Don't forget, Bei Yuan also came from the Central Plains, they are not savage prairie people."

Zhu Di knew very well that under the current situation, Bei Yuan and Yu Daming were at a great disadvantage.

After he was captured, he also used it as a bargaining chip in negotiations with Daming.

Although it was a bit of a loss of face, his father taught him since he was a child that failure on the battlefield is not terrible, what he is afraid of is being knocked down.

People like Zhu Di have a firm heart and a strong will, and Bei Yuan will not say that there is anything he would neglect.

At most, he was used to discuss the embargo with Daming.

Moreover, he is the fourth eldest child and is just a vassal king. Even if he kills himself, what's the point?

When Zhang Yu heard what the prince said, tears filled his eyes and his heart choked up.

And at this time, the speed of Zhu Di's war horses had already slowed down after a long period of running around.

On the Mongolian side, one person and two riders, still maintaining a very high posture, quickly surrounded them.

"Put down your bow and arrow."

Zhu Di stopped his horse, and then gave instructions to the guards next to him.

At this time, there is no need to do unnecessary struggle.

Thousands of Mongolian cavalry quickly surrounded Zhu Di's hundred cavalry regiment, but they just watched and didn't intend to approach.

Obviously waiting for the commander behind to come over.

Although Zhu Di was surrounded, he had a calm demeanor without the slightest sense of decadence or frustration. He looked at the surrounding Mongolian soldiers with arrogance as before.

As the vassal king of Ming Dynasty, he has the confidence.

Soon, a path was opened among the densely packed Mongolian cavalry.

A Mongolian dressed in light armor and the clothes of the Northern Yuan Dynasty walked over slowly on horseback.

"Haba, Minister of the Ministry of War of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, has met the King of the Ming Dynasty."

Haba sat on the horse and said to Zhu Di from afar.

At least in terms of etiquette, there is nothing wrong with it. It is not the attitude of a winner at all, but more like a friend.

Zhu Di shook his hand and said, "Go to Haba Shangshu's tent?"

Haba bowed slightly, and made a false gesture with one hand: "I invite King Yan to come here."

Without removing his armor, Zhu Di just rode his horse like a guest, following behind Haba.

Zhang Yu wanted to follow behind, but was stopped by Mongolian cavalry.

Haba paused for a while and said: "Our servants here may be a little ignorant, King Yan can just bring three or five servants."

Hearing this, Zhang Yu handed over the weapons on his body to the guards next to him, and then led two people to follow behind Zhu Di.

At this moment, Haba's mood was unmatched.

Not only Haba, but all the Mongolian cavalry and generals were extremely excited.

This is the vassal king of the Ming Dynasty, and among the many vassal kings of the Ming Dynasty, they are all extremely high.

Ordinary Mongolians naturally don't understand, but Bei Yuan understands these things too well.

Who would have thought that such a day would really appear.

Haba's name will be thoroughly spread throughout the Beiyuan Grassland.

No one would have thought that King Yan of the Ming Dynasty was actually captured by Bei Yuan.

This news, in just three days, has completely spread throughout the grassland border.

The army thundered.

All the soldiers belonging to the guards at the border were summoned.

There were still some smuggling vendors, but at this time, all of them were completely cut off.

But any general or commander with a little brain knows what it means at this time.

If one is not good, there will be a decisive battle of unprecedented grandeur and scale between Beiyuan and Daming.

Seven days later, the news reached the capital.

The capital shook.

This is Yan Wang Zhu Di.

To become a prisoner of Beiyuan is to slap the entire Ming Dynasty in the face, and at the same time it is to slap the entire Da Ming army in the face.

No one thinks that Zhu Di, king of Yan, is easy in terms of military ability, and too many records are enough to prove his ability.

But that's how it is now.

On Fengtian Temple.

Zhu Yuanzhang sat on the dragon chair again, and the previous curtain was lifted, which meant that Emperor Hongwu returned to rule again.

Zhu Ying was the same as before, standing quietly in front of the dragon chair.

All the civil and military officials below were trembling, not daring to make the slightest movement.

In fact, most of the ministers are very clear that although King Yan and His Highness Taisun used to have some quarrels, among the many princes, apart from the prince who has passed away, King Yan is the most favored by His Majesty.

If it wasn't because King Yan was the fourth eldest child, or because he was the second eldest child, he might have been established as the new crown prince after the crown prince passed away.

But such King Yan has now become a captive of Bei Yuan.

For His Majesty, this is definitely a matter of extreme anger.

"We have fought in the South and the North for many years, and we have dealt with Bei Yuan a lot, but we, Daming, have never suffered such a big loss."

"Are our soldiers getting old, or are the new soldiers useless? In places like the grassland, such a thing can happen."

"It's useless to pursue these things now, and we don't bother to care about them anymore."

"Let's have a good discussion and see what to do now."

Zhu Yuanzhang's voice was calm with a bit of anger. If it had changed from the past, a large number of heads might have fallen to the ground.

Now in terms of temper, it is because of Zhu Ying's relationship that he has restrained a lot.

It's just that, which minister dares to take the blame.

If this answer is not good, it must be the end of the head moving.

For a long while, the entire Fengtian Hall was quiet, no one spoke, and even the sound of breathing was extremely subtle.

Hundreds of ministers, like sculptures, did not move at all.

Such an atmosphere made the entire Fengtian Hall terribly quiet.

"Why, our son was taken away. None of you courtiers who usually say that you want to show your ambitions and ambitions dare to speak up."

"Isn't there anyone who can give us advice? Then why should we keep it for you? They are all just for nothing."

Zhu Yuanzhang's roar echoed continuously in the entire Fengtian Hall, and everyone in the entire hall could hear it very clearly without the need for eunuchs to pass on the message.

At this moment, all the ministers immediately fell to their knees.

Zhu Yuanzhang stood up from the dragon chair, then looked coldly at the several ministers kneeling in front of him, and finally his gaze fell on the minister of the Ministry of War, Ru Yu.

"Ru Yu, come and tell us what we are going to do now."

Hearing His Majesty's personal roll call, Ru Yu naturally couldn't say no, bowed slightly, and then said: "My Majesty, Bei Yuan is now under a complete embargo, and the lives of the grassland people are miserable. Naturally, I want to use His Highness King Yan as an example." quality, and then negotiate with us, Daming."

Zhu Yuanzhang snorted coldly and said, "Of course we know what you said."

"But the anger in our heart can't go away, you have to find a way to let the anger in our heart go down."

"Since the establishment of our Ming Dynasty, there has never been such a thing. This is a disgrace to our Ming Dynasty!"

After listening to His Majesty's roar, Ru Yuan didn't dare to stop for a moment, for fear that His Majesty would come to punish her if she was a few breaths late.

Immediately replied: "Your Majesty, I believe that at this moment, it is time to mobilize the troops at the border and give Bei Yuan the greatest counterattack, so that they can clearly understand their own situation. This way, they can also protect King Yan very well." Your Highness's safety."

"It can also let Bei Yuan know that the current Daming is no longer the former Daming, and is an existence they can't afford to provoke at all."

Hearing these words, Zhu Yuanzhang nodded slightly, and said with a little anger: "Don't kneel down there one by one, what we want is that you can solve our problems, not tell us what happened. Just kneel on the ground."

"We Ming Dynasty, did you courtiers kneel down? We led millions of soldiers to punch out inch by inch."

"If there are any major events in the future, you will just kneel like this one by one, then all of you should retire. It is useless for you to waste rations."

"The books I have read for so many years are all in vain."

Zhu Yuanzhang was really disappointed with these ministers.

It seems that there are no capable ministers in the entire Fengtian Temple.

In fact, such a situation is also a reflection of the imperial power's suppression of courtiers.

At the beginning, such a situation rarely happened. At that time, no matter what happened, there would be talents like Li Shanchang, Hu Weiyong, and Liu Bowen who would stand up and give advice.

And as they passed away one by one, all of them have been completely suppressed by Zhu Yuanzhang in today's court.

When encountering something, the first thing that comes to mind is not to deal with it, but to protect one's own life first.

Zhu Yuanzhang killed too many ministers in the court before, which also caused many ministers to sometimes weigh the pros and cons instead of thinking about how to deal with this matter.

Of course, if you force it, you can think of a way.

Ruyu is a good example.

In fact, Zhu Ying never thought that Zhu Di would actually be captured alive.

In fact, the possibility of Zhu Di being caught is very slim.

After all, on the vast grassland, 8000 to [-] people seem to be a lot, but the movement of tens of thousands of troops is more obvious.

Although the falcon is magical, unless the enemy is directly discovered, there are many ways to evade it.

Strictly speaking, the reason why Zhu Di was captured alive is actually inseparable from Zhu Ying.

It's not that Zhu Ying deliberately let Zhu Di be captured alive, but that Zhu Di's progress on the grassland is not so smooth, and it can open up a better situation.

I just didn't expect such a situation to happen.

Of course, in a sense, the current situation is very beneficial to Daming.

It sounds a little confusing, but in reality, it is relatively simple.

Regarding the conquest of the grassland, most of the soldiers at the border gates were actually not very happy in their hearts, because the grassland was a tough bone for Daming.

The main manifestation here is that the grassland is too vast, and the grassland tribes migrate frequently and do not have a fixed residence. It is more difficult to completely eliminate this threat.

The infantry didn't have a strong sense of presence on the grassland, so they had to stick to the border and greet the battle more passively.

Now that Zhu Di is captured alive, he is stronger in name.

At least the commanders of these border guards knew very well that at this time, they must not be passive and sabotage, but must really exert their strength.

Otherwise, if it reaches His Majesty the capital, no matter who he is, there will be absolutely no room for mercy.

As for the current border, after Zhu Yuanzhang's decree arrived, all the guards were completely mobilized.

The gates of the border gates were opened one by one, and a large number of soldiers began to go into battle, directly advancing towards the depths of Beiyuan.

This gave Bei Yuan a great deterrent, but all the tribes who received the news immediately began to migrate.

No one wants to face a furious Daming.

Anyone who stands in the way in this regard will be forcibly destroyed.

This news was also quickly passed on to the Northern Yuan court.

Zhu Di immediately became a hot potato.
