Daming Greedy Wolf Star

Chapter 526

Historically, there were many factors that led to civil wars.

For example, Xuande Emperor Zhu Zhanji changed his foreign strategy from suppressing with force to convincing people with virtue, which gave Oara and other forces a chance to recuperate.

For example, there was corruption within the Ming Dynasty. For example, a group of traitors such as the family of Guo Jing, the senior eunuch of the Four Dynasties, and the young daughter of Datong commander Li Rang leaked the border defense situation of the Ming Dynasty.

For example, the border guards smuggled food and even weapons to enemies such as Wala.

For example, the young emperor who grew up in a deep palace compound in Zhu Qi Town did not know what war was, and he only prepared for the battlefield for a mere two months.

Another example is that people like Wang Zhen are so favored that they can even intercept and change the decisions of military commanders.

But in the end, all this has to be blamed on the rulers, because it was the rulers' ineffective handling and supervision that ultimately led to the Civil War.

Compared with history, the situation today has changed greatly, but Oara eventually moved south, and this time it was even more difficult to deal with than in history, because this time Oara also united with the Eastern Chagatai Khanate.

But Zhu Qizhen would never have imagined that in his first personal expedition, not only did he not defeat the enemy army like his great-grandfather and father, but he was surrounded by the enemy army.

And the place where he was surrounded was also very special: Liangzhou Guard.

Back then, when Zhu Zhanhe rushed back to Shuntian Prefecture from the European battlefield, he walked overland. He started from the Syr Darya River in Europe, crossed the entire Eastern Chagatai Khanate, came out from the Seven Guards of Kansai, and finally went all the way to Shuntian Prefecture. .

When Zhu Zhanhe did this, the entire Eastern Chagatai Khanate did not dare to make any move or even take a breath. If they were not afraid of Zhu Zhanhe misunderstanding, they would probably send troops to personally escort Zhu Zhanhe there. Shuntian Mansion.

But when leaving the Seven Guards of Kansai, Zhu Zhanhe encountered an ambush.

That ambush was the result of the alliance between Emperor Xuande and Wala. For this reason, Emperor Xuande even gave some of the Ming Dynasty's long artillery to Wala in order to prevent Zhu Zhanhe from ever reaching Shuntian Mansion.

At that time, the place where Zhu Zhanhe was attacked was the Liangzhou Guard.

It may be a coincidence, or it may be destiny. With the permission of Emperor Xuande, Wala entered the Liangzhou Guard through the gap of Yibula Mountain and intercepted Zhu Zhanhe. The leader of the team was Ma. Hamu's son had sex.

In the end, Zhu Zhanhe, who held the white phosphorus egg in his hand, won. Mahamu's son Tuohuan was also captured in the battle and was eventually executed in Shuntian Mansion.

Now, he first retraced the path his father had taken, heading south from Yibula Mountain, passing through Liangzhouwei to Ningxia Zhongwei. The gap caused by the special terrain surrounded Zhu Qizhen here.

Looking at the soldiers who were in chaos around him, then at Wang Zhen who looked panic but still managed to calm down next to him, and finally at the servants and guards who had fled in all directions, Zhu Qizhen was a little confused.

How did things... come to be like this?

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"

Just when Zhu Qizhen looked panicked and at a loss, Fan Zhong hurried into the tent.

"Your Majesty! The Wala people have artillery! Our Shenji Battalion was washed away before we had time to level the position! A swarm of rockets could not be loaded! The artillery was also beaten to pieces!"

"The general has already sent people to rush out with the white phosphorus eggs! When the time comes, we will fight a way out for His Majesty! Please take the people away quickly!"

Zhu Qizhen looked at Fan Zhong in front of him blankly, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Before setting off, his mother told him that there were two people who could not be trusted during this expedition, one was Zhang Fu and the other was Fan Zhong.

According to his mother, Zhang Fu was old and frail, and was still a helpless person. When the King of Wu's lineage occupied Shuntian, Zhang Fu did not make any move and directly submitted to the court controlled by the King of Wu's lineage.

Fan Zhong, on the other hand, followed Zhu Zhanhe to fight in Europe for more than a year, and later stayed in Europe for a long time. He may have betrayed and switched to the King of Wu.

Therefore, before setting off, his mother warned him that under normal circumstances, he could listen to the opinions of these two people, but if something unexpected happened, these two people would be the most untrustworthy.

However, the reality was completely different from what his mother said.

When the army arrived at the southern end of Yibula Mountain, the Wala ambush troops suddenly burst out of Yibula Mountain, catching the Ming army by surprise. Not only was the Shenji Battalion dispersed, but even the battle formation was disrupted.

Almost all the people his mother sent to protect him ran away.

Menda was the person arranged by his mother to replace Sehazhi as the commander of the Jinyiwei after King Wu's line withdrew from Shuntian Mansion. As the Jinyiwei of the Zhili Emperor, Menda quickly disappeared without a trace shortly after the attack.

Menda's confidant, Jin Yiwei's commander, Lu Gao, who was also brought up by his mother, also disappeared with Menda.

Among the generals, Shi Heng and others also expressed their intention to clear a way for the emperor immediately after the attack, but there is still no trace of them until now.

As for the civil servants... I won’t mention them. They are usually delicate and frail, but at this time they can run faster than anyone else.

On the contrary, among the two people his mother had repeatedly warned him not to believe, Zhang Fu rushed out as soon as the army was attacked, stabilized the soldiers as much as possible, reorganized their formation, and launched a counterattack.

Fan Zhong, on the other hand, loyally guarded around the Chinese army's tent to protect the safety of his emperor.

"Your Majesty! We can't hesitate any more! If we hesitate any longer, it will be too late!" Seeing Zhu Qizhen's blank expression, Fan Zhong was filled with anxiety, but he could not get angry.

"Time waits for no one! Opportunities are fleeting! You can't stay here!"

……

"Want to leave!? Where to go!?"

While Fan Zhong was still earnestly persuading Zhu Qizhen to leave, a group of people broke into the Chinese army's tent, and the leader looked at them with ridicule.

"Your Majesty, let's go!"

Seeing that the enemy had already come to kill him, Fan Zhong jumped to his wits and kicked over the stove in front of Zhu Qizhen.

The stove fell to the ground, charcoal fire rolled everywhere, and soon ignited the cloth tent. Fan Zhong had no intention of caring about anything else at this time, because he had to rush forward to stop the Walas, otherwise Zhu Qizhen would be It is absolutely impossible to escape smoothly.

"Your Majesty! Let's go quickly!"

Unlike in history, Fan Zhong had no chance to kill Wang Zhen this time because the Wala people came so fast that he did not have the time.

Zhu Qizhen looked at Fan Zhong who was rushing towards the Wala people, then looked at the mess around him, and then looked at Wang Zhen who was pulling him away with an anxious look on his face.

Zhu Qizhen suddenly had a feeling, a feeling of being alone and having no one he could trust.

Although Wang Zhen did not leave him, he believed that if he had no chance to escape, Wang Zhen would leave him without hesitation. The reason why he did not run away now was just because he was the emperor and no one could escape except him. Give Wang Zhen the kind of glory and wealth he had before.

At this moment, Zhu Qizhen was suddenly in a trance.

He was suddenly confused. Why did his mother, whom he had trusted for 18 years, tell her everything wrong?
