Please ask me to be the emperor

Just as slave uprisings were in full swing across the south of the Yangtze River, "Emperor Longwu" Zhu Yujian and "Supervisor" Lu Yihai suddenly couldn't sit still.

If the previous struggle for hegemony was still about the competition between the old Zhang family and the old Zhu family for family property, then after the slaves joined in, the nature of the current hegemony has changed.

It turns out that the old Zhang family leads a group of slaves, not only to overthrow the old Zhu family, but also to replace the old Zhu family's housekeeper, purchaser, mother-in-law, maid, etc. with their own people. Is this okay?

"what is that?"

"Ships, lots of boats, lots of big boats!"

On this day, fishermen and boatmen on the Yangtze River were fishing and ferrying as usual.

However, just when everything was going as usual, suddenly in the distant east, facing the morning glow, large tracts of sails appeared.

The sails were getting closer and closer, and gradually some people recognized the flags on the sails.

"Zheng?" Which general is this?

"Boom, boom!" Just as everyone was looking at each other, suddenly the cannons on the ship rang loudly, and everyone was frightened and immediately turned around and ran away, "No, no, the pirates are coming!"

"What, Zheng's fleet?" When Zhang Shun got the news, he was immediately surprised.

"Zheng Zhilong, Zheng Zhilong, what is his relationship with Zheng Chenggong?"

"We have only heard that Zheng Zhilong was given the nickname Rijia, a small form of Yiguan, and was also known as Feihong. We have never heard of anyone named Zheng Chenggong!" Wang Duo and Qian Qianyi couldn't help but look at each other, and then looked confused. replied.

"Forget it, it's not important!" Zhang Shun shook his head and thought to himself: Could it be that this guy changed his name later?

Previously, Sun Chengzong and Li Zicheng had tricked themselves with their names. He was somewhat of a warrior.

However, the other party is finally standing on the opposite side of him. No matter who it is, I'm afraid he can only see the truth under his hands.

"In this case, Wang Ding is ordered to prepare to leave the city to meet the enemy!" Zhang Shun thought briefly and couldn't help but give the order.

"Ah, Your Highness?" Wang Duo and Qian Qianyi were shocked when they heard this, and couldn't help but hurriedly persuade them, "The thieves are very powerful, so it's better to defend the city first and then make calculations."

If you can win, just fight. If you can't, just defend. It's no big deal.

Although Wang Duo and Qian Qianyi don't know how to fight, they still have some brains.

"I know how to fight, and I eat more salt than you. Why do I need you to teach me how to fight?" After hearing what these two people said, Zhang Shun was almost angry with them.

However, thinking that both of them had good intentions, he explained: "As the saying goes: the beauty of application lies in one intention."

"In the art of military use, avoid rigidity and rigidity!"

"This Nanjing city has ten miles and nineteen steps, and twelve gates. How many soldiers and horses are needed to board the city to defend it?"

"They come from the south and are good at water but not at land. They don't know the elite of our northern troops."

"When they see that I have few soldiers, they will abandon their ships and take advantage of me. I can defeat them with a single blow!"

What does it mean?

Zhang Shun just said that the city of Nanjing is too big and has too many gates. No matter how divided the few troops I have are, there is no way to defend it.

In that case, I might as well take the initiative.

When the opponent sees that I have few soldiers, they will definitely abandon the ship and come to fight on land, which will be enough to defeat the opponent in one go.

Not to mention Zhang Shun's calculations, Zheng's fleet sailed up the Yangtze River and quickly arrived outside Nanjing.

"What a beautiful place, a place of royal aura!" The leader of Zheng's fleet looked up and couldn't help but praise it.

It turns out that the leader is none other than Zheng Zhilong's younger brother Zheng Zhifeng, who is slightly inferior to Zheng Zhilong.

Now Zheng Zhilong is sitting in the base camp, so Zheng Zhifeng is sent to lead the troops.

The city of Nanjing, surrounded by mountains and rivers, was so majestic that it really shocked Zheng Zhifeng.

"Fire!" Zheng Zhifeng pondered for a moment and finally gave the order.

He came here this time for two purposes.

One is to show off his power and scare the "submissive thieves"; the other is to join forces with the "heavenly soldiers" to jointly attack Nanjing.

Now that he has rushed outside the city, for some reason the "Heavenly Soldiers" have not arrived, so he has to achieve his first goal first.

"Boom, boom, boom!" Along with the deafening blasts of cannons, heavy iron bullets hit the thick Nanjing city wall hard, but each one bounced back into the water.

"This" Zheng Zhifeng couldn't help being shocked when he saw this. He had never seen such a scene since the Zheng family started.

"Dang Kouhou, this city is also known as Stone City. Its walls are so strong that they have never existed before. How can they be broken down in an instant?" At this point, Zhu Dadian, who came with the boat, couldn't help but smile.

"Oh? That's it!" Zheng Zhifeng was stunned when he heard this, and suddenly felt that things were getting tricky.

"We are not looking for casualties in this battle, but we are looking for a show of force, which will be enough to demoralize them!" Zhu Dadian explained with a smile.

"That 'thief chief' was very good at using troops. I don't know how many heroes in the world have been defeated and died at his hands."

"If he hadn't lost his mind this time and insisted on making some kind of "abolition of slavery" order, even this old man from Yangtze River would not agree to the general's entry."

"How can you raise other people's ambitions and destroy your own prestige?" Unexpectedly, Zheng Zhifeng suddenly became angry after hearing Zhu Dadian's words.

He has achieved both civil and military status, and has countless warships and cannons under his command. How can he be afraid of those mud-legged people?

Thinking of this, Zheng Zhifeng couldn't help but laugh and said: "Supervisor, look at this cannon!"

"In the past, when I passed by Jieyang Port, I saw rays of light on the bottom of the sea. I suspected there was a treasure. I made people dive to see it. It was this cannon."

"This cannon is engraved with Far Western characters. It can fire twenty-four kilograms of iron bullets and shoot four to five miles."

"In all the cities in the world, there is no one who can control them. Commander, please be patient and wait and see how I can break them!"

After speaking, Zheng Zhifeng ordered his soldiers to load gunpowder and projectiles, and then bombarded the city of Nanjing.

After two blasts, the gate of Shangyuanmen suddenly opened, and a general came out and shouted loudly: "What a thief, but he bombarded our city with cannons, and he was huddled in the boat."

"If you are brave, do you dare to go ashore and fight me for 300 rounds?"

"Ignore him and continue to beat him!" Zheng Zhifeng frowned and couldn't help but order.

After beating like this for half an hour, someone came out and shouted again several times.

Zheng Zhifeng still ignored him and continued to beat him.

After such a blast for most of a day, the city of Nanjing remained motionless.

Until this time, Wang Ding couldn't help but appear on the city wall, laughing loudly: "What are you capable of? It turns out that you can only tickle my city wall!"

As soon as Wang Ding said this, everyone in Nanjing burst into laughter.

It turned out that the big families, gentry, merchants and ordinary people in the city were frightened to death when they heard the sound of cannon for the first time.

But I never expected that after hearing it over and over again, I got used to it, and then I realized that this thing was "loud with loud thunder and light with little rain", and I suddenly lost my awe.

"Damn it!" Zheng Zhifeng was old in military affairs. When he saw the laughter, he immediately understood that going too far was not enough. This time, the action of showing off his power was a complete failure.

Now he had two choices before him, one was to launch a fierce attack immediately, and the other was to wait for the "celestial soldiers" to arrive and attack Nanjing City together.

"Dang Kouhou, we can't do anything. It's better to leave early!" At this moment, Zhu Dadian's voice rang out at the right time.

"Leave?" Zheng Zhilong picked up the telescope, looked at it seriously for a long time, and suddenly laughed, "That's impossible to leave!"

"Thieves are ignorant and don't know the power of my telescope."

"I used this object to observe carefully for a long time just now, and I saw that except for some armored soldiers, the rest were all strong men in the city."

"I predict that the 'submissive thieves' will have few soldiers and cannot defend them face to face. If I attack from the east and attack from the west, they will not be able to defend!"

"This is a great merit given to me by God. If I don't take it now, I will suffer disaster in the future!"
