Back to the end of the Ming Dynasty when the emperor

Chapter 376
The emperor personally went deep behind the enemy to spy on the military situation, and only brought two female bodyguards, such a thing is unique.

All the generals lamented that Zhu Yousong was daring, or that he was daring, but they complained more. Their majesty is good at everything, but sometimes he is too stubborn and insists on going his own way. Come back, but they resent in their hearts, how dare they say more?

Before leaving, Zhu Yousong passed down another decree. After he left, Lu Jiude would be the supervisor in the camp, and all the people and horses in each camp must obey Lu Jiude's control.And tell them that Dorgon is cunning, Fan Wencheng is a ghost, they are not idle people, Zu Dashou and Wu Sangui's fraudulent defeat is not accidental, they must be playing some kind of conspiracy, the generals should not take it lightly.If the Tartars come to attack, you must guard the camp well, and you must not fight against the waves of the enemy.

Lu Jiude and all the generals agreed to obey the order in unison.

This Eunuch Lu, who is the admiral of the East Factory, is Zhu Yousong's most loyal servant. Although he is not a complete man, he has been in battle for a long time, is proficient in soldiers, and has rich experience in commanding troops. Zhu Yousong handed over the affairs of the camp to him. Don't worry about him too.

After all the arrangements were made, Zhu Yousong took Ma Jinhua and He Xuanjiao to rest early.

It was the first time for two beauties to serve the bed at the same time, but for Zhu Yousong, it was not the first case to have two girls in one night. Let the second concubine go to bed at the same time, of course, the excuse is that it will be easier to get up early and act tomorrow.

Although Ermei was a bit uncomfortable or couldn't get rid of it with coquettishness and anger, she didn't dare to resist the order, and she thought that she was already the emperor's person, and she was husband and wife when she went to bed, and that's the way things between men and women are.Therefore, the two daughters slept in the same tent with Zhu Yousong that night.

There was no need for the internal supervisor to call, Zhu Yousong woke up early the next day, because he had already developed the habit of dancing to the sound of chickens, and the function of the biological clock was more accurate than the alarm clock used by us web writers to get up and type.

Ma Jinhua and He Xuanjiao helped him to dress and rinse his mouth. After eating and drinking, the three of them began to put on their helmets and armor.

They all wear heavy armor, saying that the so-called heavy armor is two layers of armor, the inner layer is a layer of soft armor made of cowhide, and the outer layer is metal armor.

Due to the limitation of smelting technology, there were several kinds of army armor in Ming Dynasty.The most valuable thing is metal armor, mostly iron helmets and armor.Then there is leather armor, which is mostly made of cowhide with animal skins.

The worst kind of armor is no armor, and these unarmored soldiers wear uniforms made to order.

Most of the unarmored soldiers are peasant troops. Of course, there are also armies of various regimes. The Ming, Qing, Dashun, and Daxi all have a considerable number of unarmored soldiers in their armies.

Zhu Yousong and the two concubines were neatly dressed, flew on horses, brought bows, arrows, knives, long and short sharp blades, some fruits, dry food and water.

After the fourth watch, the three of Zhu Yousong left the Ming army camp without knowing it.

Zhu Yousong urges to turn on a lamp that flies like an arrow, Ma Jinhua congratulates Xuanjiao, and follows closely from left to right.Three horses galloped forward like arrows under the night.

The stars in the sky are like gemstones on the black curtain, the night wind is whistling in the ears, and the rocks and trees on both sides of the road, like black and white landscape paintings, flash to the rear quickly.

I don't know how far he ran, but when Zhu Yousong felt that the mountain wind couldn't blow away the sweat on his body, the night faded, and everything around him gradually showed its true colors.

Seeing the beautiful scenery here, with green trees and red flowers, overlapping mountains, and a gazebo, Zhu Yousong reined in his horse and heard a few birdsong before Ma Jinhua and He Xuanjiao rushed up.

The three jumped off the horse, loosened the saddle and the girth of the horse, and let the horse breathe.Zhu Yousong and Ermei sat down in the gazebo, ate a few mouthfuls of dry food and fruit, drank a few mouthfuls of water, and continued on their way.

At this time, the fiery red sun climbed up the hillside, and the three of them galloped against the rising sun.

According to the time of later generations, Zhu Yousong arrived at Sanhe Town on a flying horse at around nine o'clock in the morning.

Sanhe Town was originally a big town, with nearly a thousand families in the town.But now it's Li Zicheng's Dashun army first, then the Tartars, and now Zhu Yousong is stationing troops nearby, not to mention the other thieves and grassroots bandits.

In one or two years, this place has always changed owners, and there are always wars. Either you beat me, or I beat you. The common people are scared of being beaten. How can they live and work in peace?Because no matter who wins or loses, there are always ordinary people who are unlucky.

Especially when the Tartars came, they sent troops everywhere to rob, rape and kill, and did all kinds of evil.

As a result, all the people in the town had already run away, the shops were closed, and the stalls were all empty. less than.

The three horses stepped across the quiet street, left the town, ran a few miles, and climbed up a high slope. Immediately on the high slope, looking around, there was a piece of wormwood, wild trees, and reeds in front of them. Dang, and then forward, is a galloping river.

There are three rivers converging into one larger river here, so the place is named Three Rivers Town.

This big river is a natural barrier to the west of Daming Mansion. Now it has entered the flood season, and the river is soaring. From a distance, there is a vast expanse of whiteness, and Daming Mansion can be seen across the river bank.

Zhu Yousong came for this river, because it had been marked on the military map.But what is done on paper is always superficial, and I know that this matter has to be done.

"Jiaoer, your father's injury should be healed?" Zhu Yousong asked He Xuanjiao, looking at the water situation here and the situation on both sides of the river.

He Xuanjiao said: "Go back to Your Majesty, it's been done long ago, Your Majesty means to send the navy to cross the river from here, and attack the Daming Mansion from north to south?"

Zhu Yousong shook his head and said: "Jiao'er is only half right. You see, this river flows through the Daming Mansion, and the moat must be connected with the river. The navy does not need to mobilize large-scale troops, just pick a thousand strong and sneak in along the river through the moat. In the city, if you open the city gate, the inside should be closed, and the Daming Mansion can be broken."

"Dive across the big river without a warship?" Ma Jinhua's eyes widened in shock.

Zhu Yousong nodded with a smile: "If a large number of naval warships come over, they will be easily spotted by the Qing army."

"Your Majesty, where can I find so many people who can dive? This big river is turbulent. It's no joke." Ma Jinhua, who had never participated in the Battle of Jiujiang, found it inconceivable.

"What is this river? The Yangtze River and Poyang Lake are nothing to worry about!" He Xuanjiao glanced at Ma Jinhua and said disdainfully.

"By the way, Jinhua forgot, sister's skills are all in the water. But how many water ghosts like sister are there in the world?" Ma Jinhua joked with a smile.

"That's too much. There are many such heroes in our naval battalion, and there are two of them in front of us." He Xuanjiao said and glanced at Zhu Yousong.

Zhu Yousong smiled, "That's right, I didn't pay attention to this big river. When I acted, if necessary, I would be one of them. I went down the river to hit the water for three thousand miles, and killed hundreds of thousands of Tartars. It's a pleasure! It’s not in vain to come here, and the Daming Mansion will be broken just around the corner.”

Zhu Yousong finished speaking enthusiastically, and walked back with Ermei Pegasus.

At this moment, a cannon rang, and ambushes broke out everywhere.
