Daming: the Bear Child of the Yongle Family

"At that time, we suddenly fell into an ambush in Dongying, and the team was scattered in a panic. We just wanted to protect the prince, and didn't think so much."

Zhu Gaojiu watched him carefully, and put his expression in his eyes. His eyes were already a little suspicious. He hadn't noticed before. The man's face was injured and some bloodstained, plus some dirt, which covered his original appearance.

Only then did Zhu Gaojiu realize that this person's face was very unfamiliar.

Probably because his eyes were a little sharp, the man looked rather unnatural, he subconsciously looked away, and said a little embarrassedly: "What are you doing looking at me like this?"

"Why have I never seen you before."

The man smiled embarrassingly, "There are so many soldiers in the army. Your lord, you have a distinguished status. How could you possibly have seen each of them, not to mention that the last general is just an inconspicuous soldier."

It's okay to say this, but Zhu Gaojiao has more or less impressions of the people around him. He has seen the existence a few times, but the one in front of him is really tight.

It is said that caring is messy. Previously, he was too worried about Zhu Gaojiu's safety. This will ease his mind. After careful consideration, this person who came to report the letter is a little suspicious. After thinking about it, there are occasional loopholes in his words.

That person may have also realized that Zhu Gaojiu was suspicious, he looked around quietly, and then smiled at Zhu Gaojiu, interrupting his thoughts.

"My lord, let's hurry up, the King of Han is still waiting for us."

In the end, Zhu Gaojiu's danger prevailed, and Zhu Gaojiu had no concrete evidence, so he had to suppress his doubts and secretly raised his vigilance.

He whispered to his confidant: "Pay more attention to the person in front, and send the order to the whole army to be on guard."

However, Zhu Gaosui's vigilance came too late.

The soldier gestured to the side secretly, only to hear a "whoosh", and a cold arrow brushed past Zhu Gaojiu's head.

"Be careful! There is an enemy attack!"

At the moment when the voice just fell, countless dark arrows shot over, and many people fell down instantly without being prepared.

Zhu Gaojiu's neat team was scattered, and everyone fled in embarrassment, or slashed down with swords, only to hear screams, Zhu Gaojiu looked closely, and his eyes were almost split.

It turned out that they were taken to a meadow by the man, and there were many traps with the size of a tiger's mouth hidden under it. Before that, the grass that was half a person tall was hidden and did not find it.

· · · Flowers · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · ·???????

The sharp iron teeth flashed with cold light, like the bloody mouth of a fierce beast, waiting for the prey to step into it, it was frightening to watch.

Now everyone was scattered by the arrow formation, and many people stepped on it. The huge bite force instantly broke their leg bones, fell to the ground, and lost their ability to fight, like lambs being slaughtered.

"Damn it, we've got a plan!" Zhu Gaojiu slashed the cold arrow that came over. The person who had led the way had already disappeared in the chaos, and there was nothing he didn't understand when he saw this scene.

He was sent by Dongying at all!

"Crush! Kill!"

Not far away, they shouted to kill into the sky, and countless Dongying people rushed towards them, making Zhu Gaoyu's face as black as charcoal, and he almost yelled in anger.

They only brought some men and horses on their hands, and some remained in place. In addition to the arrow rain and animal traps, they lost a lot of people. Now they are not enough, and they are obviously not the opponents of Dongying soldiers.

"My lord, let's retreat first. We've already lost a lot of people in the ambush just now. If we don't leave, we'll have to explain all of them here. If we join forces in the same place, there may be a possibility of another battle."

Zhu Gaojiu was very angry. He wanted to come to fight for so many years, how could he ever be calculated like this.

"let's go!"

Even if he hated his teeth, he had to bow his head to reality, intending to integrate the army, and it would not be too late to kill him with a carbine, but what they didn't know was that the situation in the rear was not optimistic.

......

Sun Ming and others were worried that they would be discovered by the Dongying people. They were cautious and spared a lot of roads along the way, so they wereted some time, but they did not know that this was the reason why they gave the Dongying people a chance.

Maybe if they arrive sooner, they will be able to expose the tricks of the Dongying people, but it is still too late. Who would have thought that Dongying and the others would be so cunning, step by step, and set up a series of evil tricks to defeat the king of Zhao and the king of Han one by one.

At this time, Sun Ming still didn't know what happened here with Zhu Gaojiu, and he expected him to bring Zhu Gaojiu to rescue after he brought the letter.

"The front is the place where the prince and the others agreed-"

Sun Ming's voice stopped abruptly, and he saw the ground not far away in a mess. It was obvious that a fierce battle had just happened, and his heart suddenly froze.earth.

Chapter 271

"What's going on, General Sun-"

Since Zhu Gaojiu has been ambushed by Dongying and trapped in prison, how can there be no guarantee that everything will be fine on Zhu Gaojiu's side? Just now he wanted to report to King Zhao so that he could move rescue troops to rescue him, but he didn't even think about this issue on the way.

At this time, Sun Ming felt a vague sense of unease. The knife marks on the ground and various bloodstains had been cleaned up in a hurry, but it was not difficult to see that there had been a big battle here.

"General Sun, look!"

The person beside him lowered his voice, and saw a few figures appearing in front of him, wearing Daming's clothes impressively. He couldn't help showing a surprised look. He was about to say hello, but was pressed down by Sun Ming.

Sun Ming made a silent gesture. With the lessons learned, he no longer dared to take it lightly this time, "Let's take a look at the situation first and then talk about it."

They were ambushed in the grass that was more than half a person high, with a natural shelter. If you didn't look carefully, you wouldn't know there was someone hiding there. Sun Ming and the others fell to the ground, gently pushed the grass away, and secretly observed what was going on in front of them.

I saw the mouths of those few people opened and closed, as if they were discussing something, and when these people approached, it was clear that they were speaking Dongying dialect!

These people are clearly Dongying people disguised as Daming soldiers!

The so-called knowing oneself and knowing the enemy can win a hundred battles. Sun Ming has dealt with Dongying before, so he is familiar with Dongying dialect, at least there is no problem in daily conversation.

Thinking of those few people's words, Sun Ming's complexion suddenly turned ashen, and various thoughts flashed in his mind.

I'm afraid that Zhu Gaojiu will also encounter an accident here. The best result is to escape and ascend to heaven, and the worst result is to be in danger like Zhu Gaojiu.

After these few people had completely gone away, it took a long time to make sure that there was no one around. Sun Ming and the others were like birds in a panic, and then their heads emerged from the grass.

"General...what should we do now."

The few soldiers around were downcast and couldn't help showing despair. They didn't think that they had come to rescue the soldiers. Who would have thought that there was a problem with King Zhao here.

Sun Ming's face didn't look any better either. Now that Zhu Gao's Mud Bodhisattva crossed the river, he couldn't protect himself. It was obviously unrealistic to rely on him. He gritted his teeth and said decisively, "Let's go back to Beijing!"

Everyone looked at each other, and things can only be like this now, and the information here must be reported to the capital as soon as possible.

......

On the other side of the capital, everyone did not know that a storm was about to sweep.

Zhu Di was sympathetic to Zhu Gaoyu, and when he saw him returning from the chaos in the southeastern coastal areas, he immediately threw himself into the track construction project.

Now that the track is on the right track, although the grassland side realizes the seriousness of the situation and is ready to make a move at the border, but due to the majesty of Daming and the fact that he has not fully recuperated, he only dares to secretly do things in secret.

He let Zhu Gaoyu have a good rest, and even waived Zaochao, which shows his love for him.

Zhu Gaoyu walked cats and dogs in the palace so leisurely, and occasionally Zhu Zhanji came to play games with him.

"Little uncle is having a good time. I don't know how the second and third uncles are doing."

When Zhu Zhanji came, Zhu Gaoyu was teasing crickets and was in high spirits. He didn't raise his head and said, "You are worried about their situation."

"If the support for Gaoli this time is successful and the Dongying soldiers are driven back to their old nest, then they have made a great contribution. Isn't the little uncle not worried?"

Of course Zhu Zhanji was worried, but he was worried that King Han and King Zhao would swell and gain Zhu Di's love, thus threatening the position of the prince.

You must know that after so many years, even after the First Battle of the Grassland, their ambitions have never been extinguished, and they have only grown day by day, so why not make him vigilant.

Zhu Gaoyu held Twig's hand for a while, and understood the meaning behind the words, "You are too much."

Although Zhu Di has an old illness now, after his last recuperation, he should have no problem living for a few more years, and he is not a fainting emperor.

The crown prince is the foundation of the country. Once it is replaced, it will inevitably cause many disasters, causing turmoil in the court and even the whole country.

What's more, the prince didn't make much mistakes. During the supervision of the country, he only handled things in an orderly manner. Whoever was not praised by the civil and military officials, although his personality was slightly flawed, he was still a wise prince.

"Uncle, you're still too young." Zhu Zhanji sighed and looked at Zhu Gaoyu's face that was not fully open. Although he was so intelligent, he didn't know enough about this kind of thing... .

We never know that once a person is tainted with power, he will never be willing to let it go. Even the kind-hearted person will lose himself after being exposed to power for a long time, not to mention King Han and the others are already ambitious.

Zhu Gaoyu was hesitant to say anything, because the combined age of his two lifetimes was much older than Zhu Gaoyu.

"Eldest nephew, you have too little experience and not enough experience."

Looking at Zhu Gaoyu, whose head has not yet reached his chest, it will be Zhu Zhanji's turn to be speechless, "You will be joking, little uncle."

Although he said that, Zhu Gaoyu knew a little that Zhu Di would not easily replace the prince, but King Zhao of Han was obviously not the one who would give up easily, otherwise he would not be so active in leading the battle this time.

The capital in Beijing looks calm, but it is actually a turbulent undercurrent.

What's more, there are all the grassland ministries that are eager to move at the border. If they don't solve it in one day, it will be a big problem for Daming's confidants. Sooner or later, they will make a comeback again. It's just a matter of time.

"I don't know when the second uncle and the third uncle will be able to return. According to their marching speed and ability, it is estimated that it will only be ten days, maybe not so long."

It's no wonder that Zhu Gaojiu and Zhu Gaojiu underestimate the enemy, not to mention them, even most people in the capital think so, and they don't take Dongying in their eyes.

After all, Goryeo's letters said that there were only tens of thousands of troops, and Daming sent [-] troops. It was not a sure win against them.

Right at this moment, Sun Ming and the others had been busy all the way, avoiding all kinds of siege and blocking in Dongying, and finally came to the foot of the capital without any danger.

"Report to His Royal Highness King Liang—"

Someone outside the door hurried to report, "General Sun Ming is back."

The teacup in Zhu Zhanji's hand trembled slightly, and looked surprised: "King of Han and King Zhao, they are back?"

He was extremely shocked. He had to know that it was only a few days ago that King Zhao of Han had returned to the court. This speed was unparalleled, and he couldn't imagine how they would be rewarded by Zhu Di.

"No, there are only a few of them back..."

Zhu Gaoyu's expression changed. .

Chapter 272

Zhu Di looked at Sun Ming, who was kneeling below, his armor was damaged, and the whole person was in a state of embarrassment.

"Why is it only you, King Zhao and King Han?"

Sun Ming raised his head in grief and indignation, his expression full of tiredness. He was on the road all night, and he didn't even dare to close his eyes, for fear that if he took a short rest, he would be overtaken by the soldiers of the Eastern Empire, or delay the best time to rescue King Han and King Zhao.

Fortunately, the Dongying people thought that their plans were flawless, and never thought that there would be so few small fish that slipped through the net. In addition, Sun Ming had learned from the past, and no matter how careful he was along the way, he actually returned to the capital without any danger.

"In order to attack Dongying as soon as possible, the king of Han and the king of Zhao planned to outflank them from the front and back, split them into two sides, and annihilate them in one fell swoop. Who would have thought that there would be an accident in the middle of the road, Dongying had already discovered our whereabouts, and made preparations in advance, and even Send someone to impersonate me as a Ming soldier."

"Now King Han is deep in the canyon, and King Zhao's army is trapped on the other side of the river. Almost half of the army has been damaged and cannot return. Please send troops to support quickly!"

As soon as the news came out, all the courtrooms were shocked.
