The Most Powerful Man in the World

Even if King Ning rebelled, even if he recaptured Nanjing City one day, as long as Xu Fu could return to Nanjing City, it wouldn't be long before, relying on the century-old operation of Wei Guogong's lineage in Nanjing City, the custody of Nanjing City would once again fall into Wei Guogong's lineage. in control.

Of course, this control is not the complete control of Nanjing City, but the influence of Wei Guogong's lineage on Nanjing City.

If this was the case in the past, even the emperor would not be able to break the rules and transfer Wei Guogong's line to the capital. After all, Wei Guogong's lineage stayed in Nanjing City, which was a rule that was established when he became an ancestor.

Later generations of emperors also acquiesced one by one to the family of Wei Guogong as the hands of the nobles of Nanjing, and sat in Nanjing for the Tianjia.

But people's hearts will change. After hundreds of years of development in Nanjing City, the family of Wei Guogong has already been integrated into all aspects of Nanjing City, and its influence on Nanjing City is really too great.It can even be said that it has surpassed the influence of the royal family on Nanjing City.

It would be a lie to say that the Son of Heaven never thought of transferring Wei Guogong's line out of Nanjing City.

It's just that if there is no reasonable reason, it is not so easy for Wei Guogong's line to be transferred out of Nanjing City.

And right now is the perfect opportunity. The direct line members of Wei Guogong's line were forced to leave Nanjing City. It was the best time to transfer Wei Guogong's line from Nanjing City.

Unless Chu Yi's head was flooded, he would never give Xu Guo a chance to return to Nanjing City.

And Xu Huo obviously realized that once their Xu family left Nanjing City, they would never regain their former prosperity, so they begged Chu Yi to take him to Nanjing City with them.

Even if he knew that there was a certain risk, but for the future of the Xu family, Xu Chu couldn't care so much.

It's a pity that Chu Yi is not a fool, so he didn't give him this chance at all.

Seeing Chu Yi's determined appearance, Xu Chu couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Glancing at Chu Yi, Xu Chu said to Chu Yi, "Forget it, since this is the case, the old man went to the capital to ask His Majesty's guilt. The governor is here to quell the rebellion, but he has to be careful of those Jiangnan nobles!"

As an old fox who was used to seeing all kinds of intrigue, Xu Huo dared not say that he had seen through all of Chu Yi's calculations, but he could vaguely grasp it.

Therefore, Xu Tuo reminded Chu Yi that it could be regarded as a gesture to Chu Yi.

Chu Yi felt the sincerity in Xu Chu's words, and smiled slightly: "Old Prince, don't worry, Chu must go here and ask those rebels to know what the strict laws are and the laws of the country."

No matter what Xu Chu thought in his heart, it was necessary for the Duke of Wei's line to go to the capital anyway. Finally, the Duke of Wei and his line left Nanjing City and did not take it to the capital. Chu Yi felt sorry to God.

I originally thought that Xu Chu might welcome King Ning into the city, but I never thought that Xu Chu was not old and confused, and he seemed very rational in the face of King Ning's rebellion, and he was firm in his own position.

Aside from other things, Xu Chu might not be a true loyal monarch, but at least he did not choose to betray the court. For this alone, Chu Yi would not be able to do anything to Xu Chu.

His eyes fell on Fan Heng.

To tell the truth, Fan Heng is the important person in Chu Yi's control of Nanjing City. Although it is impossible for Chu Yi to have only Fan Heng as a nail in the entire Nanjing City, Fan Heng is definitely the most important one.

Fan Heng saw that Chu Yi's eyes fell on him, and he pondered about the various arrangements he had made in Nanjing City.

Xu Chu, who was sitting beside him, was shocked when he heard Fan Heng arrange them one by one.

If Fan Heng did not lie, then just by listening to Fan Heng's various arrangements, it can be seen that the fall of Nanjing City was as early as Chu Yi's expectations, and even to say something outrageous, the fall of Nanjing City, Chu Yi, the great The manager is absolutely irrelevant.

At the same time, Xu Chu's heart was also filled with turbulent waves, and even when he guessed Chu Yi's ultimate goal, Xu Chu had a faint cold sweat on his back.

Looking at Chu Yi's eyes, he couldn't help showing a bit of fear and jealousy.

Being able to make Xu Chuan, an old fox, feel jealous of Chu Yi, it can be seen that Xu Chuan was definitely not lightly shocked.

Chu Yi nodded in admiration at Fan Heng and said, "This time, there is Director Lao Fan. If Jiangnan can be pacified this time and return to the rule of the imperial court, Director Fan has contributed greatly."

Fan Heng hurriedly said, "Our family is just acting according to the instructions of the overseer, how dare we take credit!"

Although there was news from Jin Yiwei, Chu Yi still asked Fan Heng and Xu Chu one by one. Combined with the news brought by the two, Chu Yi had a clear understanding of the current situation in Nanjing City.

Hundreds of large ships set off from Huai'an and went straight to Nanjing along the Grand Canal.

Huai'an is hundreds of miles away from Nanjing City. As long as there are no accidents on the Grand Canal, troops can approach Nanjing City in at most two days.

Several days have passed since the Nanjing city was broken, and King Ning ascended the throne in Nanjing city yesterday with the support of hundreds of officials.

Afterwards, King Ning gave him a reward. Except for dozens of officials who refused to obey King Ning's edict and were thrown into prison, the entire Nanjing court really had a bit of a new dynasty.

"Report, Nanchang urgent report!"

A fast horse carrying a messenger galloped past Nanjing Long Street.

At the same time, on the mighty canal, dozens of large ships carrying the rebels stopped in front of the hundreds of large ships of Chu Yi. With the order of Chu Yi, hundreds of large ships rushed up directly. The sound of the last scream.

The artillery banged against each other, the fire guns rang in unison, and the small boats carrying the brave soldiers shuttled between the big ships to find an opportunity to board the big ship.

The big ships collided with each other, but it was just a cup of tea, and the situation became clear in the water battle.

[The third one is sent, there is a monthly ticket, but there is no reward, hum hum ......]

Three hundred and sixty-ninth chapter three Lin Nanjing City [1 more]

Relying on the height of the ship and the large number of people, Chu Yi's side was stunned to overwhelm King Ning's rebel army, only to kill these hasty King Ning's naval forces and flee in a hurry.

Standing on the huge warship, Chu Yi looked at the chaotic scene ahead.

The collision on the rivers and even the sea is no better than that on the land. Even the elites on the land, if they cannot understand the water, once they get on the ship, I am afraid that they will not be able to exert any combat power.

Fortunately, Jiangnan has been in peace for a long time. Even if Ning Wang tried his best to come up with such a sailor, it was far worse than the sailor created by Chu Yi when he was prepared.

It can even be said that if some of Ning Wang's navy's soldiers were not provided by those marine merchants, Ning Wang's navy would not have been able to hold on for a few battles under the impact of the imperial army.

It has to be said that among the naval masters of Ning Wang, the strength displayed by some very individual warships is still quite astonishing. Regardless of the large number of troops brought by Chu Yi, if the naval masters of Ning Wang are all that kind of combat power, I am afraid that the final outcome of this water battle is still unknown.

Although it is said that many people from the Jiangnan Sea Merchants chose to support King Ning, the strength of these people's support is obviously very limited. As for them, it is obviously impossible to support King Ning with all their might.

That is to say, Chu Yi wanted to cut their flesh and blood on them, forcing them to have no choice. Otherwise, in the eyes of those who only see interests, what does King Ning's rebellion have to do with them.

That is to say, it is beneficial for King Ning to oppose them, so they choose to support King Ning.

If one day, King Ning endangers their interests, I believe that these people will choose to abandon King Ning and choose someone else without hesitation.

There were floating corpses on the water surface and warships burning with fire, dozens of large ships of the Ning Wang Navy, most of them were directly captured, and some were damaged in a bad way, and there were also a few ships that saw the opportunity and escaped first.

However, with the few ships that escaped, unless King Ning can gather another navy team to come out in a very short period of time, otherwise, it will not be able to stop the imperial army led by Chu Yi from appearing in Nanjing City. outside.

How to deal with the prisoners and how to arrange the captured warships did not need Chu Yi to bother at all, but after more than an hour, the fleet set sail again.

On the second day of King Ning's enthronement ceremony in Nanjing City, Wang Shouren, who had collapsed Zheng Qi's rebels, devoted all his troops, including thousands of captured rebels, to storm Nanchang City.

The entire city of Nanchang suddenly seemed to be crumbling, as if it might be breached at any time.

Zhu Gongxu, the king of Yichun, appeared on the city wall in person, and even the imperial army that had attacked the city several times even killed Zhu Gongxu in front of him. Keep it out of Nanchang City.

From morning to evening, the tragic siege had no meaning to stop at all. Wang Shouren seemed to have made up his mind not to take Nanchang City and never give up. More than [-] soldiers and horses were divided into several groups by him. Then take turns to siege the city, without giving the rebels in the city a chance to breathe.

Although it was said that King Ning's rebels had a certain amount of support in Nanchang City, these men and horses under King Ning were really mixed, and the soldiers and horses who stayed behind Nanchang City were even more of a mob.

If it weren't for the large number of people and the presence of a city like Nanchang City as a basis, I am afraid that the defenders of Nanchang City would have collapsed long ago.

If the defenders in Nanchang City were elite soldiers and horses, the tens of thousands of defenders would not be able to fight against twice as many siege troops while defending the city. It would not be too easy.Why is the city crumbling like it is now, and it may be breached at any time.

Zhu Gongxu, in armor, stood on the city wall under the protection of a group of personal guards, watching the continuous stream of imperial troops and horses attacking the city, with a look of fear in his eyes: "Mad, Wang Shouren is a lunatic, this is all It has been a full day, and at least four or five thousand soldiers and horses have been killed or injured, so he is not afraid that if this continues, his soldiers and horses will collapse?"

Zhu Gongxu was almost angrily scolding, who let Wang Shouren attack with all his heart, and did not give them time to rest at all, and even refused to give up even if they paid a lot of casualties.

About two miles away from Nanchang City is the place where Wang Shouren's troops and horses were stationed. Wang Shouren stood on a high platform and looked in the direction of Nanchang City.

Wang Shouren stood there like a statue.

Seeing that a wave of soldiers who finally rushed to the city wall was driven down again by the rebels counterattack, with hundreds of casualties, Wang Shouren couldn't help sighing in his heart.

If possible, Wang Shouren would naturally be reluctant to choose the under-the-radar strategy of forcibly sieging the city.

It's a pity that no matter what the quality of the defenders of Nanchang City, the top and bottom of Nanchang City are really invincible by King Ning.

After several attempts to persuade him to surrender, they did not have the slightest effect, and completely cut off Wang Shouren's idea of ​​dissolving Nanchang City's resistance from within.

As King Ning's old nest, King Ning naturally put in a lot of effort, so it is naturally unrealistic for Wang Shouren to break through Nanchang City from within for a while.

Standing beside Wang Shouren, Wang Wu secretly glanced at Wang Shouren and opened his mouth.

With a light sigh, Wang Shouren seemed to have noticed Wang Wu's small movements and said, "It's almost time, pass my order and order everyone to attack the city together."

Wang Wu couldn't help exclaiming when he heard the words, and looked at Wang Shouren in amazement, obviously not expecting that Wang Shouren would order the whole army to attack.

But after Wang Wu reacted, no matter what he thought, he instinctively took command.

Soon under the order of Wang Shouren, in addition to the soldiers who were damaged in the battle, more than [-] soldiers and horses were assembled and headed towards Nanchang City like a tidal wave.

Zhu Gongxian, who had repelled a wave of attacks from the imperial court, was suddenly shocked when he saw the densely packed army below.

Realizing that this might be a blow from Wang Shouren, Zhu Gongxu couldn't help screaming loudly and roared, "Everyone hurry up to the city wall, if anyone disobeys the order, they will be killed without mercy!"

Dressed in silver armor, Zhu Gongxu roared with all his might, and saw a group of soldiers rushing up the city wall, looking at the black army below with a bit of fear.

A number of cloud ladders are placed on the city wall. The number of these ladders is more than double that of the previous one. Obviously, during the previous siege of the city, the court side hid a bit of strength, but now it is the All the strengths are displayed.

"Kill, kill, kill..."

Zhu Gongxu led his personal guards to walk around the city wall, slashing and killing a soldier who rushed to the city wall.

I have to say that Zhu Gongxu's own ability is not bad, at least he dares to appear on the city wall to kill the enemy. If nothing else, at least this courage is not something ordinary people can have. It is no wonder that King Ning will take Nanchang City's people. The defense was handed over to Zhu Gongxu, not Prince Ning.

Looking at Zhu Gongxu on the city wall from afar, he attacked everywhere, beheading many court soldiers and horses that rushed to the city wall, Wang Wu, who followed Wang Shouren, couldn't help frowning and said: "Sir, this King of Yichun is really not simple. If it wasn't for him, I'm afraid Nanchang City would have been breached long ago."

Wang Shouren glanced at Zhu Gongxu, the king of Yichun, and said, "Zhu Gongxu is the backbone of Nanchang City. As long as Zhu Gongxu dies, Nanchang City will be broken!"

Ah!

Wang Wu was stunned when he heard the words. At this moment, Wang Shouren reached out and took the bow and arrow that was straddling the horse, and then bent the bow and arrow.

With a thud, an arrow pierced through the air.

Zhu Gongxu, who was commanding soldiers on the city wall to resist the imperial troops and horses rushing to the city wall, suddenly felt a little chill in his heart, and subconsciously looked under the city wall.

At a glance, Zhu Gongxian couldn't help shrinking his eyes and instinctively wanted to dodge, but it was a pity that he was a step behind.

I saw an arrow accurately sinking into Zhu Gongxu's chest.

Zhu Gongxu's body softened, and he put his hands on the city wall hard, his eyes fell on Wang Shouren under the city, and the two looked at each other across a space of more than ten meters.

There was a bit of a wry smile at the corner of his mouth, Zhu Gongxu's eyes went black, and the screams of the guards came from his ears, and he sighed in his heart, Nanchang City is over!

"King Yichun is dead, King Yichun is dead!"

A burst of shouts sounded, and the rebels who had barely defended the city under the leadership and encouragement of King Yichun suddenly heard that King Yichun had died in battle. Naturally, everyone couldn't believe it, and subconsciously looked in the direction of King Yichun.

After all, King Yichun has been urging everyone to resist the imperial army on the city wall for a long time. Whether King Yichun is alive or dead, everyone can see at a glance.

But when everyone looked, they didn't see the silver figure in armor, and even the flagpole representing the Wang Shuai flag of Yichun on the tower did not know when it was shot by an arrow.

"King Yichun is dead, everyone, run!"

"The city is broken, escape!"

Especially at this time, several waves of imperial troops and horses rushed to the city wall again, without the encouragement of King Yichun to supervise the battle, coupled with the psychological impact of the death of King Yichun on these rebels, I don't know how many rebel soldiers were stunned for a while. .
