Chapter Forty-Three(1/2)

Li Geng made a good decision, but the prince did not blame him, but instead rewarded him.

Shortly after the prince fainted, he woke up in a cup of tea and repelled the doctor and maid. He hurriedly asked someone to call Li Geng in front of him: "Send the order to hold a banquet in my name to summon the generals of the army in various places on the north bank of the Yellow River, just saying that there is something big to discuss. Let the brothers be prepared, and as soon as the generals leave the garrison, they will seize power immediately!"

When Li Geng heard this, he breathed a long breath, a hint of relief flashed in his eyes, but he bowed to the end and claimed the crime: "Your Highness, please forgive Li Geng for his crime of making arbitrary claims."

The prince said strangely: "Why is the crime of making a proposition?"

Li Gengcai said that he had made arrangements.

When the prince heard this, he not only did not blame him, but laughed and got up from the couch and helped Li Geng up: "Good done! Good work!"

He sighed, "It's urgent, so you should follow the power. If Xiao Wang doesn't wake up for a few days, wouldn't he have ruined a big deal? Not only are you innocent, but you have great achievements!"

I was so relieved that I didn't mention it.

Li Geng said: "Don't worry, your highness. According to the original plan, there should be no omissions. General Zhao Shen and General Wang will definitely not make any mistakes."

He paused and frowned slightly: "It's just that Sun Chuanting's subordinates have also sent letters on behalf of His Highness, but they are afraid that he will respect false edicts and will not respect His Highness. After all, the cabinet department has occupied the righteousness. Once Sun Chuanting's troops are withdrawn, the pocket formation will be broken, and if the thief flees to Guanzhong..."

"This is also something Xiao Wang is worried about."

The prince sighed secretly, but cheered up and said, "These are the top priority to seize military power on the North Bank. There are 50,000 or 60,000 soldiers on the North Bank. Although they are useless and cannot attack, they can be competent for defense and siege."

"What does Your Highness mean?" Li Geng's eyes lit up: "Have the military power seized, divide the troops?"

“Yes.”

The prince nodded: "For the sake of the present, there is only this way to go. The north bank line, after all, there is a natural chasm of the Yellow River, and there are more than 50,000 or 60,000 troops. You can divide half of it and you will lead it to the Luoyang line, replacing Sun Chuanting's troops, and you will be the one who will rush."

"Such a pocket array is still a pocket array!"

The prince nodded again: "That's right. The war is fast and urgent, and the changes in the court cannot be delayed. Therefore, after seizing military power tonight, you must set off immediately."

Speaking of this, the prince was a little confused: "I just hope General Zhao Shen and General Wang can react quickly."

Li Geng nodded seriously: "General Zhao Shen used his troops very quickly, so your highness doesn't have to worry. I believe that at this time, the troops and horses of General Zhao Shen had left Bozhou and headed north to Kaifeng. As for Ding Qirui's troops, the troops and horses arranged near Xiangyang and Nanyang were arranged with General Wang's methods, so there would be no trouble."

"Hope..."

...

As Li Geng guessed, Zhao Yu's troops had indeed set off their camps and headed north and ran to Kaifeng.

Fengyang Prefecture borders Guide Prefecture, Guide is close to Kaifeng Prefecture, and Bozhou is located in Fengyang and Guide border. After leaving Bozhou, it is Guide Prefecture, and only a few dozen miles westward is within Kaifeng Prefecture.

Zhao Yu's use of troops is of great speed. Whether it is going south of Liaodong, breaking Shouzhou, Huoqiu, attacking Ge Zuo, and exchanging the bandits, they are all extremely fast. The army set out from Bozhou, divided into four groups, in a fan shape, and rushed to Kaifeng City to encircle it.

The central army of Zhao Yu's troops had 18,000 troops. This way, they passed Guide Prefecture and went north through Chenzhou, Kaifeng. The destination was Zhuxian Town, southwest of Kaifeng's suburbs.

Zhuxian Town is where Yue Wumu’s last battle was! Today, Zhao Yu also wants to go here to attack the thieves and assist Kaifeng!

The other three routes were all 10,000 soldiers, two routes to the east, one by one, and one by one, aiming directly at Lanyang, which was in the east of Kaifeng. He also passed by Suiyang, but rushed to Qi County and rushed directly to Chenliu in the southeast of Kaifeng.

On the west side, I went to Chenzhou with Zhao Yu's army, but passed through Fugou and Weishi, and detoured to Zhongmu, west of Kaifeng.

In this way, except for the front line of the Yellow River north of Kaifeng, Zhao Yu actually wanted to use his army to siege the thieves from the outside!

Such a plan was the result of Zhao Yu's careful consideration.

The prince's pocket formation is good, but Zhao Yu knew that because the quality of the armies of all parties was uneven, it was difficult to advance and retreat together. If you could not advance and retreat together, there would be a slight tactical omission, and there would be a flaw in the pocket formation, and it would be difficult to destroy the thieves with one blow.

It is better to use your own strength to give the thieves a cruel one first. The faster the better. It is best to kill Li Zicheng in one battle and destroy his leader. As long as his army loses its leader and is dispersed, then all the troops of the official army rushed forward and extinguishing the thieves would be easy.

The key is to be fast.

Li Chuang couldn't react in a good way!

After all, the army of various robbers are quite powerful. No matter the tens of thousands of troops arranged by the prince on the north bank of the Yellow River, Sun Chuanting's army in Luoyang, or even the army of Ding Qirui in Huguang, the trespassers can imagine. The prince's army is brightly on the north bank, and unless he is blind, he will not be unable to see it.

The Sun Chuanting's troops who came after Guanzhong were originally commanded by Yang Sichang and had fought with Li Chuang, so Li Chuang would not be confused. The same is true for Ding Qirui's troops in Huguang. Zhang Xianzhong fell into the hands of Zuo Liangyu, who was controlled by Ding Qirui, and then he entered Li Chuang, Henan. Li Zicheng must have expected it.

Only Zhao Yu came from Liaodong and headed south. He defeated the thief Ge Zuohe Xian in a few days. The speed was so fast. Even if Li Chuang was as capable as a famous general of ancient times, he would not have expected Zhao Yu to be so fast and suddenly came from the south! Besides, this thief did not have the ability of a famous general of ancient times?

It was just about to catch him off guard!

Otherwise, if Li Zicheng was slow to detect and contacted the three government troops in the north, east and southwest, how could he not see the imperial court's plans?

I must run away!

It was because he didn't know that Zhao Yu had troops along the way, and because he knew that Fengyang had Gitou and the Xian thief from the east, and had a way out, that Li Chuang dared to arrange tens of thousands of troops on the line on the north bank of the Yellow River. He looked down and dared to continue to besiege Kaifeng.

Zhao Yu didn't know the prince's plan, but he would never let the great opportunity he created slip away from his eyes. He could not control the troops on the north bank of the Yellow River, and Sun Chuanting and Ding Qirui. Even if he could control them, Zhao Yu would not have hope.

He only has confidence in himself.

In a day, Zhao Yu led 18,000 troops and horses to pass through Guide Mansion and arrive in Chenzhou, Kaifeng.

It was at this moment that the prince had a letter to him.

Zhao Yu ordered Yang He to arrange the army to repair the matter, but he opened the books and silk from the prince in the big tent.

With a look of ten lines, Zhao Yu's eyes gradually narrowed.

After reading it, he shook his hands and the books turned into powder.

"I used to put the prince's great affairs first and for the time being, but I did not expect to do such a bad thing." Zhao Yu murmured.

Zhao Yu went to Liaodong to dispatch troops and was poisoned on the way. Zhao Yu knew who was behind the scenes. He knew very well. He originally returned to the capital overnight and killed the thieves one by one because of his character. However, because of the prince, he was concerned about the prince's affairs, so he suppressed his nature and planned to come and deal with him after the prince took power.

But unexpectedly, he did such a careless thing!

Although the books and silk are short and the words are concise, the changes that have occurred in the court can be clearly explained. Those scholars always say that people are traitors who are traitors who are traitors who are traitors who are traitors who are traitors who are traitors who are traitors who are traitors who are traitors who are traitors who are traitors who are traitors who are traitors who are traitors who are traitors who are traitors who are traitors who are traitors who are traitors who are traitors!

How dare you assassinate the Emperor!

He is really bold, even Zhao Yu has to say the word "convinced"!

Weiwei Xu breathed out: "It seems that my concern is right. It is time to pierce the thief and first seize the thief, then take the victory, return to the court, make trouble, and beat the thief in one go!"

"And... the faster the better..."

...

In the 14th year of Chongzhen, at the end of the autumn, the prince left the capital and supervised the army to suppress the thieves.

As the general Zhao Yu of the sergeant, he transferred 50,000 troops from Liaodong and headed south. He arrived in Fengyang for half a month. One day, he defeated Shouzhou and killed the bandit leader He Yilong, Lin Yangcheng, and defeated all his troops. He entered Taihang alone, defeated the bandit leader He Jin, and Liu Xiyao's troops thief, and killed the bandit leader He Yilong, and killed the bandit leader He Jin, and killed the bandit leader Liu Xiyao's troops and killed the bandit leader He was killed.

Another day, he went north to Bozhou and killed the thief of Xian Zhang Xianzhong, and destroyed all the thieves in his troops.

Zhao Yu divided his troops into four groups, and the speed was three days. The army reached Lanyang, Chenliu, Zhuxianzhen, and Zhongmu, and the outside world surrounded the Kaifeng thieves. The general Zhao Yu led a hundred cavalry and bravely rushed into the thieves' camp, killing Li Chuang, Liu Zongmin, Li Guo and other thieves, and horses stepped on the camp, causing chaos in the thieves!

The siege of Kaifeng has been resolved.

That night, within a radius of fifty miles, there were endless shouts of killing, just like thunder. The army of the prince's troops on the front line of the north bank settled in the opportunity, drove the camp south, and fought with the bandits.

Another general Wang Yisheng, who was in charge of Huguang's troops and led his troops northward, arrived in another two days.

Sun Chuanting's troops remained unmoved.

The gang general Zhao Yu killed Li Chuang and other thieves and disappeared without a trace.

However, in seven days, there was a major change in Beijing!

The general Zhao Yu suddenly returned to the capital alone. Overnight, the four auxiliary ministers of the Pavilion, the heads of the six divisions, civil and military officials, and hundreds of dead!

There are also imperial guards in the army, and tens of thousands of people were killed!

Subsequently, the Empress Zhou issued an imperial edict to expose the plot of the cabinet's auxiliary ministers assassinating the emperor and turning the world around. He also ordered the general Zhao Yu to seize the troops in the capital and suppress the riots.

The generals were ruthless and ruthless. Three days later, thousands of Juren, Jinshi, and scholars were slaughtered. Tens of meritorious nobles and their families were destroyed. Millions of people in the capital were all trembling.

Another month, the prince wiped out the bandits and returned to the court.

On the third day, he ascended the throne and became Emperor Tianyuan, and was appointed Emperor Tianyuan. Li Yuqing was appointed as the prime minister and Li Geng assisted him. Wang Yisheng was appointed as the general and commanded the troops of the whole country. He also appointed six ministers and ministers. In just three days, he sorted out the government affairs.

Then, General Wang Yisheng was appointed as the commander general and the killing god Zhao Yu as the vanguard. He led his troops to fight east and west, gathered troops from all over the country, and suppressed rebellions from all over the country.

The prime minister Li Yuqing, the second assistant Li Geng, the minister of the Ministry of Revenue Zhao Gongming and others ordered people's livelihood management, tax exemption, and followed the army's advance without leaving any loss.

As a result, the world was chasing for five years!

Emperor Tianyuan promoted Zhao Yu to the great general of Shenwu, and was given the title of Duke of the County. He also gave more than ten women including Dong Xiaowan as wives and concubines. He invited Taoist Qingyun as the national teacher and Taoism as the national religion.

In the next five years, cultivate and nourish.

In the next five years, Emperor Tianyuan led 100,000 troops with the Duke of Shenwu Zhao Yu, completely defeated Jiannu, defeated Korea, and destroyed Mongolian tribes. He attacked three thousand miles north, and as for the North Sea Ice Ocean.

With the great general of Yuanwu, Wang Yisheng, he led 100,000 troops to destroy the countries in South Vietnam and reach the shore of the South China Sea.

In another five years, the world was well-off and another 300,000 troops were launched to march westward to the Western Regions and continental China, spreading the glory of the Han civilization all over the world.

The twenty-third year of Tianyuan.

It has been more than three years since the Arrogant Ming Dynasty conquered the world.

Liaodong, Ningyuan, Daxing Fort, Shenwu Duke's Mansion.

Since conquering the world war, Zhao Yu has stepped down all military positions. No matter how Emperor Tianyuan tried to keep him, his intention to leave was decided. Emperor Tianyuan had no choice but to order the Ministry of Works to build the Duke's Mansion in Daxing Fort in Liaodong, and gave countless gold and silver and countless beautiful maids, and rewarded them with great grace.

Shenwu Duke Zhao Yu accepted everything, but never refused.

Three years have passed, this day.

In the Duke's mansion, Zhao Yu was furious.
