Jingtai Fengyun: The First Absurd Emperor of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 636: The southern Ming army attacks Siam and the northern Ming army fights against the Japanese invaders
Zhu Wenfang deliberately made Zhu Qiyu angry: "If you don't pass it on to me, don't pass it on to me. Then I can go in and play with the head office?"

Zhu Qiyu shook his head: "That won't work, Lingyu Palace is your mother and I's love nest, and it's full of things that are inappropriate for children.

Besides, think about it, although I am very ridiculous, according to the rules of past dynasties, the prince cannot visit the emperor's harem. "

Zhu Wenfang smiled and said: "Dad, you just said that we cannot be restricted by the rules of etiquette and law, and we cannot be controlled by the red tape prescribed by Confucianism.

These words still ring in my ears, why are you just slapping yourself in the face? "

Zhu Qiyu slapped his face twice: "I slapped myself in the face, what's wrong? Why do you know so many idioms at such a young age? What words are still ringing in your ears, but I still broke my words and gained weight."

After that, Zhu Qiyu handed Zhu Wenfang to Huang Qi, and then ordered: "Send Brother Fang back to Changle Palace, and let the imperial concubine take care of him."

Huang Qi quickly agreed, and then ran away with the prince in his arms.

Zhu Qiyu returned to the Hehuan Hall, and as soon as he lay down on the couch, Ningxiang handed over the military report.

Zhu Qiyu waved his hand: "I don't want to read anymore. Just tell me what happened."

Ningxiang replied: "Liu Xiang reported that the Xinyi Guard composed of Miao people, together with the Champa Guard and Jing'an Guard commanded by Yang Xinmin, attacked Siam from east to west.

When the army arrived, every city watched the wind and descended; the people of Siam ate pots of pulp to welcome the king's army.

Based on the situation on the front line, it is estimated that Siam will be captured this year. "

Hearing this military report, Zhu Qiyu was a little surprised: "What does it mean to eat a pot of pulp to welcome the king's army?"

Ningxiang smiled and said: "Husband, do you want the slave family to explain this idiom to you? No way, I'm afraid even Brother Fang knows what it means to eat teapot pulp to welcome Master Wang."

"You little girl are about to become a narrow-minded person. Stop trying to pretend to be confused. I want to ask, why do the people of Siam eat pots of pulp to welcome Master Wang?"

"The slave family is just teasing you, because wherever Master Wang goes, he will collect the land from the local powerful and powerful and distribute it to the people. From the date of the land distribution, all the people will be exempted from taxes, taxes, and corvee for five years.

If you were an ordinary local citizen, you would also eat pots of pulp to welcome the king's master. "

Zhu Qiyu praised: "People like Xu Youzhen and Yang Xinmin are really good at playing. Fortunately, they are civil servants. If military generals win over the people like this, I will not be able to sleep.

What about Wang Ji? What is Wang Ji doing recently? "

"The Duke of Jingguo wanted to return to the capital and hand over the fiefdom to his son to manage. In the recent Battle of Siam, Wang Ji did not participate, nor did his old subordinates.

The only people responsible for attacking Siam from the western front were Miao King Wei Tonglie and his Xinyi Guards.

In addition, both Liu Xiang and Gao Ping had secret reports, requesting their husbands to send more eunuchs to supervise the army and guard the troops.

The territory they conquered was so huge that the two eunuchs couldn't supervise it at all. "

Zhu Qiyu nodded: "We bought a group of young eunuchs from North Korea. You can choose some with gentle temperament and good quality to send over."

Ningxiang asked again: "After destroying Siam, is this the end of the war in the south?"

Zhu Qiyu shook his head: "Good morning, these are the appetizers in front, and the hard-to-beat Manraka and Majapayi are still behind.

What I really want is to control the Strait of Malacca, thereby firmly grasping the chokepoint of Western trade.

That is to say, knock down the original old port, and then collect tolls, foreigners' tolls, and pirates' tolls.

Once this foreign war is over, we will be able to live a happy life counting money until our hands cramp.

Taking advantage of these good days, I will send Zhu Qizhen to meet my father-in-law, so that their family can be reunited and harmonious.

After that, they will destroy the Tatars, Oaras, Eastern Chagatai, Timur Empire, and the Golden Horde.

In fifteen or six years at most, regardless of whether these people are dealt with or not, I will abdicate on time.Let Zhu Wenfang take over as this broken emperor. I want to enjoy the blessings of the whole family comfortably in Lingyu Palace. "

Ningxiang nodded and praised: "Yes, it would be great if we could live a small life behind closed doors. My husband has so much to worry about every day, it makes me feel bad to see it."

"Hey, never mind, I'll torture you first and then I'll talk."

After saying that, Zhu Qiyu got on his horse, and a charming voice sounded in the room.

...The weather is getting colder and calmer.

In the blink of an eye, November 21st arrived.

The Japanese army besieged Anbian for more than a month. After continuous and violent bombardment, the southern city of Anbian was finally destroyed.

The Japanese troops poured in along the gap and started street fighting with the Ming army.

Since the Ming army had already deployed various defensive methods in the streets and alleys, there were countless traps in the Japanese army.

After more than ten days of close combat, the Ming army suffered more than [-] casualties and the Japanese army suffered more than [-] casualties.

Fang Ying led eight thousand Ming troops to break out and retreat north to Xianxing.The Japanese army followed them all the way, vowing to destroy this Ming army.

The Korean people in Hamgyong Province ate pots of juice to welcome the king's army and helped the Japanese army to block the Ming army.

On December [-], after paying a heavy price, Fang Ying finally led his army to retreat to Hamhung City and joined the three thousand Ming troops stationed in the city.

On December [-], the Japanese army pursued them to the gates of Hamhung City despite the severe cold.

At this time, there were still more than 3 Ming troops and [-] Japanese troops.

The enemy was outnumbered and we were outnumbered. Fortunately, the Japanese army advanced quickly with light troops and did not bring heavy artillery.

However, the common people, gentry, and powerful people in Hamhung City had strong aspirations towards North Korea. On the night of December 21, they gathered in chaos, attacked the Xicheng defenders, and opened the city gates.

The Ming army was exhausted and at the end of its war effort.

After finally holding on until dawn, there were less than 3000 people left, so they had no choice but to hold on to the government office.

Seeing that the situation was over, Fang Ying couldn't help but look up to the sky and sigh: "I regret not listening to Zhang Ning's words. If we had captured Seoul with all our strength earlier, how could we have been defeated today."

The trusted lieutenant general advised from the side: "Master Marquis, the green hills are still there, and we are not afraid of running out of firewood. The last general will lead the main force to hold back the Japanese army, and you will lead hundreds of soldiers to break out of the city.

As long as you return to Pyongyang and gather your troops to fight again, it will be a matter of time before you defeat Japan and North Korea with the strength of the Ming Dynasty. "

Fang Ying shook her head firmly: "How can I be a general who abandoned the city and ran away because of the emperor's favor in my life? Today, I will live and die with this Xianxing City.

Once the government office is breached, the only option is to fight to the death to serve the country. "

In the next two days, the Japanese army attacked urgently.

It was Hatakeyama Yoshitsune who led the main attack again.

Hatakeyama Yoshiyuki's inner excitement was beyond words.Once this Ming army is completely wiped out and the Ming Nan and Marquis are captured alive or beheaded, then their own achievements and prestige will be great.

Not only is there no problem in inheriting the family business and becoming the governor of the Hatakeyama clan, but there is also great hope in competing for leadership in the future.

Hatakeyama Yi thought more and more, and led his retainers to charge desperately, and finally broke through the government office at noon on December 24.

The next step is to go all out and launch the final blow against the Ming army.

Fang Ying and the remaining Ming troops were furious and were ready to die to serve the country.

At this moment, only a mile away from the government office in the north, gunfire and cannons were heard, and loud shouts of killing were heard.

The excited Hatakeyama Yoshitsune was held tightly by the soldiers who came from outside to report the news: "Master, it's not good, reinforcements from the Ming Dynasty have arrived. The commander has ordered the whole army to retreat."

"The leader is really as cowardly as a mouse! What kind of reinforcements and how many people there are are just a bluff by a small Ming army. Why retreat?"

The soldier replied: "It's not a small Ming army, it's a force of [-], well-equipped and well-trained. They are unstoppable all the way, and we really can't hold it anymore."

Hatakeyama Yoshitsune looked in disbelief: "Thirty thousand troops? Where did the thirty thousand troops come from?"

The soldier shook his head: "No one knows where they jumped out. We can only see them holding high the banner of the Ming Dynasty God Wuhou."
