Great Ming: I, Zhu Di, Declare My Intentions to Seize the Throne from the Start!

Northeast Gaizhou.

Polo pot.

An army composed of more than 10,000 people, wearing various clothes and weapons, marched slowly.

Zhang Yu was riding a horse and standing on a hilltop, looking far into the distance...

After a long time, he returned his gaze and fell on his army.

I couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Boarded the pirate ship of Gui Lao Si!

He was a dignified judge of the Privy Council, but he listened to the deception of the fourth ghost and became an important part of the plan to raise the bandits.

Now, throughout Liaodong, people in the Ming-controlled areas call him Zhang Dakou!

The Yuan Control Area also calls him Zhang Dakou!

Some Han colleagues in the royal court finally sent him letters.

It is said that everyone in the royal court also calls him Zhang Dakou.

I don’t know when this big bandit’s identity will be cleared.

Ta-ta-ta...

The sound of rapid horse hooves sounded.

A bright big head stands out at the front.

Soon, Bald Head approached with several followers.

The retinue stopped outside the security circle for Zhang Yu's personal soldiers.

The big bald man approaches on horseback.

Zhang Yu glanced and saw that this was Zheng Shilong, the bald boss Gui Laosi and the others captured from Shandong.

This guy claims to have his hair shaved off.

If you don't look good, you won't grow your hair.

It is one thousand households among his thousands of cavalry.

Command two thousand troops.

He is also considered a confidant.

Brother Lushan was too weak and died in a battle not long after following them from Xining Fort.

Of the three Shandong horse bandits, only the bald and one-eyed ones are left.

"Zhiyuan." The bald man came up on horseback and saluted on horseback.

Zhang Yu glanced at him and said, "Why don't you lead the troops in front and why do you come here to me?"

"I have a thousand households, so I won't be in the way." Bald-head Zheng Shilong waved his hands in a slightly changed Shandong accent. He came close to Zhang Yu and whispered furtively, "Zhiyuan, after we grab the jade seal, we really want to To the little emperor of Yuanting?"

Zhang Yu glanced at him with a smile and deliberately asked, "Then what do you think we should do?"

Zheng Shilong suddenly became more energetic, "Of course the Zhiyuan should be taken as our own! If we pass on the national jade seal, we will be recognized by heaven. Let's seize a city in Liaodong, the Zhiyuan will be enthroned and proclaimed emperor, and all the brothers will be granted the title of marquis and prime minister, and then To conquer the world, take Liaodong first, then map the Central Plains, and compete with Emperor Zhu in the Central Plains..."

The bald man became more and more excited as he talked, spitting and shaking his head. His big head was so shiny in the bright sunshine that it was a bit dazzling.

The corners of Zhang Yu's lips twitched fiercely.

Take Liaodong first?

Picture the Central Plains again?

Competing with Emperor Zhu in the Central Plains?

No wonder, this bastard, except for a brief period of glory at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, became worse and worse and continued to decline. ☟

This IQ is really touching!

The Ming Dynasty and the New Dynasty were vigorous and full of vigor.

After the war in the late Yuan Dynasty, the people of the Central Plains settled down.

As long as the people can survive, they will never follow external forces to overthrow the Ming Dynasty.

Therefore, he understood very early that Wang Ting's so-called counterattack was a joke, as long as the people of the Central Plains did not follow external forces.

The unified dynasty in the Central Plains would be difficult to defeat.

The only chance for the Royal Court is to control the decline, maintain the current strength, and carry out drastic internal reforms and rectification.

Reluctantly forming a stalemate with Ming Dynasty.

Unfortunately, when he observed the royal court, he did not find a talented person who could take on the responsibility of reform and rectification and control the decline.

In the early years, Wang Baobao had this trend.

Unfortunately, the Ming court also saw Wang Baobao's ability, so it carried out a series of actions such as surrendering and attacking Wang Baobao.

In the end, Wang Baobao, who was unwilling to surrender, died on the battlefield.

The current royal court is just a bunch of wine bags and rice bags, leading a plate of loose sand.

So they retreated to the grassland, relying on the advantages of the nomadic people, allowing Yuanting to barely survive.

The crisis of Ming Dynasty is actually no longer external.

And inside!

The next fifty years will be crucial.

With the great power of the new dynasty, a group of upstarts have risen, and new rules and systems have been established. While adapting to the rules, the upstarts are all competing for interests.

In the future Ming Dynasty, even if there is civil strife, the source of power for the civil strife will never be the common people.

It must be a war within the Ming Dynasty where the interests of the top elites are unevenly distributed.

The nature of the two wars is completely different!

"Shut up!"

Zhang Yu couldn't stand listening any more, so he shouted angrily, interrupted Zheng Shilong, and said angrily: "You hold the jade seal, occupy a city, and then ascend the throne and proclaim yourself emperor, make a marquis and worship the prime minister, you are not conquering the world, you are singing a show!"

"I will find a good home for my brothers. If you let me hear your stupid words about advocating for me to be the emperor again in the future, don't blame me for being rude!"

The subordinates need to be trained.

If the training is not good, it doesn't matter now, and it doesn't matter if you go to the Royal Court. Anyway, the current control of the Royal Court is very loose.

But when he returns to the Ming Dynasty in the future, these bastards will definitely give him trouble!

hey-hey……

The bald man sneered, responded, and left with his followers.

Zhang Yu smiled helplessly, "Where is the fourth ghost now?"

After passing Boluocheng, he can reach the vicinity of Gaizhou in one day.

…

Ximucheng.

Naha led tens of thousands of elites and secretly hid his troops here.

Inside the pure white dome.

Naha stared at the scout and said in surprise: "Zhang Yu? Are you sure it's Zhang Yu?"

The scout who reported the news was very sure: "Your Majesty, it is definitely Zhang Yu!"

snort!

Naha snorted slightly. Feng Sheng predicted that the fourth prince of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Di, would pass by. Instead of Zhu Di, he waited for Zhang Yu. new igh.𝑐𝑜𝑚

He had long noticed that the relationship between Zhang Yu and Daliao River Guard seemed a little unusual.

Every time he sent troops to deal with Zhang Yu.

Zhang Yu couldn't defeat him, so he ran to Daliaohewei's territory.

Now it appears again, Feng Sheng predicts the marching route Zhu Di will take.

There is no magic in this!

Nahachu frowned, a little embarrassed.

According to the plan, as long as Zhu Di passed through Boluocheng, he would immediately send troops from Ximu City to block Zhu Di's retreat.

But now Zhang Yu arrives, but Zhu Di is nowhere to be seen.

Zhang Yu can still take his time to deal with it and capture or kill the fourth prince of the Ming Dynasty, but there is only one chance!

Where did Zhu Di go?

"Your Majesty, Li Fangguo, the second son of King Li Chenggui of Korea, wants to see you."

The voice outside the dome interrupted Naha's thoughts. He frowned slightly and said with some displeasure: "Bring him in!"

In the past, the kings of Goryeo were as obedient as sheepdogs.

But now, the Mongols are in decline, and he has to be courteous to Li Chenggui, a powerful figure in Korea.

Goryeo is close to him. If Goryeo cooperates with the Ming Dynasty and the east and west attack him, it will be very detrimental to him.

When Naha was feeling melancholy, Li Fanguo was brought in. He pressed his chest with one hand and bowed in Mongolian etiquette, "Li Fanguo pays homage to the prince."

Naha came to his senses. He knew Li Fanguo. He forced a smile and asked, "Why did your father send you here?"

"My father didn't send me down to see the prince..." Li Fanguo immediately told Naha what happened.

new

At the end of the sentence, he sneered and mocked: "The 'King of Liaodong' of the Ming Dynasty wanted to cover up his generals, so he wanted to put the blame on the prince."

"I came to the prince just to deal with Feng Sheng. After my Li family does business in the interior of the Liaodong Ming Control Area, I can spy on the prince for information."

…

Li Fangguo glanced at Naha.

He also has to thank the Ming Dynasty’s ‘King of Liaodong’.

In this way, the Li family can avoid offending both sides and benefit from both sides.

"Wait, you mean, it was Feng Sheng who asked you to come to this king?" Nahachu suddenly interrupted Li Fanguo.

Li Fangguo glanced suspiciously and nodded, "Yes, I guess Feng Sheng just wants to take the blame..."

"Stop talking!"

Naha was a little irritated and interrupted Li Fangguo who was chattering.

He stood up and walked around muttering: "Feng Sheng, Feng Sheng..."

Only a noble from a small country like Li Fanguo would use such narrow subjective consciousness to speculate on Feng Sheng.

But he won't!

He has been dealing with Feng Sheng for so many years.

Feng Sheng would never go to such trouble for such a trivial matter.

Feng Sheng must have a big plan for doing this!

How could a small local noble like Li Fangguo see through the plans of a Central Plains dynasty prince?

Boat!

Yes, boat!

At a certain moment, Naha's eyes lit up.

Ha ha……

Then he threw his head back and laughed.

Li Fangguo was confused and looked at Naha Suspiciously.

Even if he agrees, there is no need for Naha to be so happy once the Li family is doing business in the interior of the Ming-controlled area and helping to spy on intelligence, right?

The next second, Naha walked quickly to the Qionglu. In front of the hanging map of Liaodong, he drew a circle on the coastline near Gaizhou with his thick fingers and ordered: "Hurry up and go to Fuzhou. Send an order to the navy to rest in Fuzhou. All were dispatched, some blocked the entrance to the Daliao River, and some went straight to the waters near Gaizhou and in Liaodong Bay. All the ships they encountered were sunk by me!"

The fourth prince of the Ming Dynasty!

You really have something, you actually thought of attacking Gaizhou by land and water!

Nahachu turned his head and glanced at Li Fanguo. If this Korean hadn't gone to Feng Sheng to complain.

I'm afraid this time, he and Feng Sheng will watch helplessly as the fourth prince of the Ming Dynasty seizes the imperial seal and flies away!

This is destiny!

The God of Immortality is favoring him!

"Send another order, Ximu City will divide 30,000 troops to cut off Zhang Yu's retreat!"

Coupled with the navy attacking Fuzhou.

In this way, he completely blocked all the escape routes for the fourth prince of the Ming Dynasty.

This time, he will solve it together with Zhang Yu!

No no no...

And Puda is unreasonable!

He swore to the Immortal God that after the deed was accomplished, Gaizhou would be the pasture of the Puda Lunli clan.

But if Puda loses his mind, he will not survive until the matter is accomplished.

His oath naturally doesn't count.

He would not remind Puda that he was unreasonable and that the fourth prince of the Ming Dynasty was planning to attack his Gaizhou by land and sea.

This time, he wants to kill three birds with one stone! Make a lot of money!

Ha ha……

Li Fanguo's mind was full of confusion. He approached Nahachu and asked suspiciously, "Your Majesty, is he going to fight?"

Thirty thousand troops were divided at once, and the scale of the war was not small by any means.

But seemingly, he observed that the entire Liaodong Ming-controlled area, except Daliao River Guard, was very peaceful, with no sign of preparations for war.

Hearing the sound, Naha turned around and looked at Li Fanguo with a half-smile. He patted Li Fanguo on the shoulder and said with a hearty smile: "Now that you are here, don't leave in a hurry. I will show you how I can surround and kill the Ming Dynasty." The Fourth Prince!"

"The fourth prince of the Ming Dynasty must have arrived in Gaizhou on your boat..."

Li Fangguo's face gradually turned pale.

What role did Feng Sheng play in it?

No, no, no, it doesn’t matter what role Feng Sheng played, he indirectly participated in the siege and killing of the fourth prince of the Ming Dynasty!

Once the Ming Dynasty occupied the entire Liaodong, Goryeo became a vassal and paid tribute to the Ming Dynasty.

What should the Ming Emperor do if he pursues the case?

No, we will definitely pursue it!

This is a direct prince of the Central Plains Celestial Dynasty!

‘You can’t stay here. If you stay here, you will have settled everything! ’

In just a short moment, Li Fangguo's face turned pale and she was sweating. After regaining consciousness, she hurriedly bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I would like to wish you a successful victory. I still have something important to do..."

"No matter how important the matter is, you have to stay and watch the hunt for the fourth prince of the Ming Dynasty!" Nahachu interrupted Li Fanguo coldly.

Li Chenggui was the powerful man who held military power in Goryeo.

He must force Li Chenggui, the powerful man, and there is no way out!

Someone in Goryeo wants to attack him from the east and west of the Ming Dynasty. He must first ask Li Chenggui if he agrees!

"If you capture Zhu Silang alive, I will ask you to take Zhu Silang back to Korea for a parade. If you kill Zhu Silang, I will ask you to take Zhu Silang's head back to Korea!"

Plop!

How could Li Fangguo not understand Naha's purpose? He could no longer hold on and fell to the ground...

It shouldn't be like this... It shouldn't be like this...

He originally wanted the Li family to move between the Ming Dynasty and Naha Chu to reap the benefits, but why did it end up like this?

…

the next day.

evening.

A small boat came from the direction of Gaizhou.

After the boat docked at Lianyun Island, Zhu Di quickly went up to meet it, "How is it? What's going on in Gaizhou?"

Zhang Qi glanced at Zhu Di suspiciously.

Tan Yuan shook his head first: "No, there is no movement at all. The entire Gaizhou City is on standby, as if they already know that we will sneak attack Gaizhou."

Zhang Qi didn't know what news Zhu Silang was waiting for.

But he knows.

They have been waiting on the island for two days.

He and Zhang Qi went ashore every day to inquire about news.

But there was still no movement from Zhang Dakou.

Gaizhou was suddenly ready.

It was probably Zhang Dakou who was exposed.

Zhu Di frowned and suspected that his eldest brother Zhang Yuxing was exposed.

Then he asked: "How is Gaizhou's defense situation?"

Zhang Qi said, "On the seaside side of Gaizhou, the defense is relatively loose. Not many troops have been deployed. There are only about a thousand people. The other three sides have about 3,000 people each."

Puda was unreasonable and only had a piece of land in Gaizhou.

There are not many tribes, and they can only gather ten thousand people, including some strong women who can bend bows and shoot arrows.

The other three sides are heavily armed, while the seaside side is thin.

Zhu Di was more certain about this troop layout, and his eldest brother Zhang Yu was discovered.

The only thing that puzzled him was, even if he discovered it, why didn't his elder brother attack?

Originally, they were waiting for the eldest brother to launch an attack, while they were waiting for the mantis to catch the cicada.

But now...

They don't know where the eldest brother is.

There is no way to contact him, and he can't wait in Lianyun Island for a long time.

Food is fine.

In the past two days, merchant ships have passed by. They were well hidden and were not discovered.

It’s been a long time, but I can’t tell for sure.

After thinking for a moment, Zhu Di gritted his teeth and said, "Let everyone have a good rest. We will land tomorrow night and launch a sneak attack at night!"
