Chapter 168 A show of force

When he heard that the Eighth Route Army King Qin and his horse from the Ming Army camp in Tongzhou were heading towards Miyun, Abatai was not worried but was happy:

"It's a good idea that the dogs are here. Let them bury him with my son. I'll report back later!"

"twitter"

Abatai doesn't care about those Qinwang troops at all. They run away as soon as they are hit, and are defeated in one blow. They are all useless!

As long as the East Palace Guards under the command of the Prince of Ming Dynasty are not available, Abate will not pay attention to other armies at all.

King Qin's troops gathered together and set up camp ten miles outside Miyun City.

They did not dare to approach Miyun City, fearing that Jiannu would misunderstand that they were attacking Miyun and launch a sudden attack.

In fact, this is a sign of incompetence and stupidity. You are already ten miles outside Miyun City. Can Abatai think that the Ming army is here for sightseeing?

After King Qin set up camp, he started to light a fire and cook, waiting for the crown prince to arrive. However, he waited and waited but never saw the crown prince arrive.

Gao Qiqian began to play the drum in his heart. It was much closer to Miyun from Huairou than from Tongzhou. Why didn't the Crown Prince arrive for a long time? Was he robbed by the slaves on the way?

Gao Qiqian was not the only one who had this idea. Almost all the generals had this idea. They did not think that the old soldiers from the Beijing camp under the Crown Prince had any abilities.

As for the East Palace Guards' victory over Jiannu outside Changping and Deshengmen, they didn't believe it at all.

Based on their understanding of Jiannu, it is a big lie that one thousand Donggong Guards defeated 30,000 Jiannu troops.

To be more precise, it should be that the emperor saw that he could not control King Qin's troops and deliberately pushed the little killer star to the front to check and balance them.

Killing so many Tatars is even more nonsense. It is just killing good people and taking credit.

I just feel sorry for the civilians who were killed. When it comes to killing good people and taking credit for their merits, these Ming soldiers certainly have a say.

That is their specialty. Two days ago, Wang Pu sent his men to hunt down innocent people.

In fact, Zhu Cihong's National Guard Army had already arrived in Miyun, and they were all hiding in a woods five miles away from the Ming Army's camp.

Zhu Cihong wanted to see King Qin's troops camped a few miles outside Miyun City, and secretly see if they dared to attack Miyun.

When he learned that the Ming army was camped ten miles outside Miyun City, Zhu Cihong was very happy.

The order he gave these people was to attack Miyun, and what was the implication of setting up camp ten miles away?

In order to make these people suffer some more, Zhu Cixiang rested in the woods for another hour before ordering the army to move out.

The National Guard Army was about four miles away from the Ming Army camp. Ming Army scouts finally discovered them and immediately rushed their horses back to the camp to report to Gao Qiqian:

"Master Supervisor, the National Guard Army under the Crown Prince is about four miles away from the camp!"

"It's finally here. What's the difference between marching at this speed and crawling like a turtle, and defeating the 30,000-strong Jiannu army? You're lying to a fool!"

This is the thought in the minds of most of Qin Wang and his lieutenants.

But he is the crown prince after all. No matter how many thoughts they have in their hearts, at least most of them still dare not openly confront him.

What Zhu Cixiang wants is for these incompetent people to feel unhappy and openly confront them in anger. Otherwise, how can he gain authority in the army if they all just obey him!

Ordering the army to set up camp next to the camp, Zhu Cixiang led more than fifty generals above guerrilla level and twenty personal guards, including Cao Huachun, Zhou Yuji, Sun Yingyuan, Zhang Shize, Yue Yang, and Hu Bao, to the Chinese army camp.

Regardless of the small number of national troops, there were many generals. The original East Palace Guards had at least two hundred guerrilla or above generals. Zhu Cixiang did not bring all of them with him. They were all wearing bright armor and looked majestic.

As soon as they arrived outside the Chinese army's camp, Gao Qiqian led all the generals and deputy generals to come out to greet him.

Everyone was even more disappointed when they saw the crown prince. A child of seven or eight years old actually commanded the country's troops. The emperor was joking about the Ming Dynasty...

Although they were secretly complaining, the generals and deputy generals from all walks of life still stepped forward and bowed to salute:

"The slaves and supervisors rise and dive, see the young master!"

"General Zu Dalue, the commander-in-chief of Shanhaiguan, please see your highness!"

"The last general in Shanxi is as fierce as a tiger, please see your highness!"

"Li Chongzhen, the last general in charge of Miyun, comes to see His Highness!"

"The last general..."



Zhu Cixi suppressed the anger in his heart and tried his best to smile:

"Generals, you have worked hard to kill the enemy, no courtesy!"

After Zhu Cixiang said that, he walked straight into the Chinese army tent and sat down at the main seat. The position just now belonged to the supervisor Gao Qiqian.

Standing on Zhu Cihong's left and right were Yue Yang, Hu Bao and twenty East Palace guards with AK47s. Cao Huachun, Zhang Shize, Sun Yingyuan and others stood under Zhu Cihong.

The supervisor, Gao Qiqian, had been standing high just now, but now he no longer had a position and could only stand beside a deputy general.

The generals believed that their status was higher than that of the generals of the National Defense Army, and were unwilling to be positioned too far back and wanted to squeeze forward.

But the general of the National Protector's Army ignored them at all. They couldn't squeeze in front of them even if they wanted to, so they could only stand angrily behind the guerrilla general of the National Protector's Army.

Zhu Cixi saw all this clearly from the corner of his eye, but did not express his opinion.

It was not that Zhu Cihong was nepotistic and protective, he knew very well that the generals of the National Defense Army were the future of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Cixiang did not know these generals and lieutenants present. They introduced themselves to each other during the ceremony, and it was impossible for Zhu Cixiang to remember their names one by one.

If one of these Qinwang men is the most famous, of course it is Jinzhou General Soldier Zu Dashou, but Zhu Cixiang did not seem to have heard this name just now.

He glanced at the faces of the generals and asked:

"Who is Zu Dashou?"

Zu Dale, the commander-in-chief of Shanhaiguan Pass, handed over his hand and said:

"Reporting to Your Highness, the military gate is guarding Jinzhou to prevent Jiannu from taking the opportunity to enter. They are not among the King's troops this time. Your Highness, please forgive me!"

Zhu Cixi nodded:

"It is true that Zu Dashou guarded Jinzhou to prevent Jian slaves from taking advantage of the situation. What if Jian slaves avoided Shanhaiguan and Jinzhou and other places and destroyed the city walls again to enter? Wouldn't Jinzhou and Shanhaiguan exist in name only?"

Zu Dale did not expect that the crown prince could say these words at such a young age. Wasn't this a blatant slap in the face of the Liaodong general?

Zu Dale did not dare to openly contradict the crown prince. He was so embarrassed that his face flushed red, and it took him a long time to say one word:

"this……"

Zhu Cixi waved to him:

"I'm just asking casually, please step back!"

"Here"

Zu Dale lowered his head and stepped back. At this moment, he felt that the young crown prince in front of him seemed not as simple as he imagined, and his way of speaking and tone were completely unlike a seven-year-old child.

In fact, Zhu Cihong knew very well that Zu Dashou did not dare to come to Qinwang. After his old boss Yuan Chonghuan was killed, Zu Dashou retreated to Jinzhou overnight. Until the fall of the Ming Dynasty, he never entered the capital.

The reason why he said this in public today was not to humiliate Zu Dashue, but to warn Zu Dashou and the other Liaodong generals.

Of course, Zu Dashou is still good compared to Hong Chengchou, Wu Sangui and other traitors.

He repeatedly surrendered to establish slaves, which not only deceived Huang Taiji, but after the fall of the Ming Dynasty, Zu Dashou himself did not contribute to the establishment of slaves.

Father Chongzhen did not blame Zu Dashou, it was because he really did not dare to offend the generals of Liaodong and was worried that they would all lead their troops to surrender and become slaves.

But it doesn’t matter to Zhu Cixiang. No matter who it is, as long as he dares to betray the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Cixiang will definitely crush him to ashes, confiscate his family and exterminate his family. If you don’t accept it, you can give it a try!
