At the end of March of the third year of Jianwen, when spring is warm and flowers are blooming.

Tie Xuan stood on the wall of Jinan City, looking to the north.

"It's spring, and the army of King Yan is coming soon."

There was a man standing next to Tie Xuan. This man was considered an old acquaintance of Tie Xuan and served as an official in Liaozhou, Shanxi.

After Zhu Di's army arrived in Liaozhou, they quickly occupied Liaozhou. When Liaozhou officials surrendered to Zhu Di one after another, he was the only one who was the only one who left Liaozhou alone. When Tie Xuan gathered the defeated soldiers, they met.

.

Gao Wei is also a literati and advocates integrity, so when he and Tie Xuan reunite, the two hugged each other and cried bitterly. He and Tie Xuan are the same kind of people, and they are willing to give themselves to the country for their sake.

In addition to Tie Xuan and Gao Wei, there was also a general standing on the left side of Tie Xuan, who was the emperor's personal guard Sheng Yong.

Originally, Sheng Yong was ordered by Emperor Jianwen to rush to help Li Jinglong with his troops and food, but he didn't expect that after he arrived in Shandong, Jinglong had already run away without a trace. There was no way, so I couldn't have been Lord Tiexuan

Two civil officials, including Lord Gao Wei, were stationed here in Jinan, so Sheng Yong also stayed.

Gao Jian looked at Sheng Yong and asked, "The Holy General and his daughter saw that the Yan Wang Army set out from Peiping. How long will it take to arrive in Shandong?"

Sheng Yong thought about it and replied: "The Northern Army has always been a name for cavalry to fight. The cavalry is very fast. It can arrive in about two days, and the infantry should be slower, but it will be around five days.

The food, supplies and supplies will be replenished within ten days in the future.”

"I guess this winter, the King of Yan should have prepared very sufficient food, grass, weapons, and supplies. The next thing we have to face is a fierce battle."

Tie Xuan smiled when he heard this.

"No matter how many soldiers he came, if the soldiers came to block the water and soil, I, Tie Xuan, don't believe it. Is the King of Yan really invincible?"

"Send the order to keep the whole city on guard and prepare for war! When the King of Yan arrives, we will start war immediately!"

...

Tie Xuan, Sheng Yong and Gao Wei had a good guess. Before the spring could be in full swing, Zhu Di couldn't wait to lead his troops out of Peking City and pointed directly at Shandong.

Although there were two more people fighting in the army this time, Zhu Di's second son Zhu Gaoxu, as well as his younger son Zhu Gaosui, and his eldest son Zhu Gaochi fought in Beiping to defend the city. Zhu Di performed very much, so Zhu Di put the Beiping city and the food and supplies.

All were handed over to Zhu Gaochi.

Zhu Song knew that Zhu Di attaches great importance to Zhu Gaochi now, because the two armies fought, sometimes the troops were not the only factors to win, and sometimes they were not the most important factors to win. The most important thing was logistics, especially the Ming Dynasty and the Northern Yuan Dynasty.

The national war.

Why did the Ming Dynasty win just because Zhu Di and Lan Yu were too brave and good at fighting at that time? Not entirely, because the Ming Dynasty had sufficient logistics supplies at that time, and with national strength, how could the Ming Dynasty be invincible?

Now Zhu Di can no longer be summarized by suppressing the rebellion. Zhu Di has now almost captured the entire northern part of the Ming Dynasty. After taking Shandong, he will point his sword at Ying Tian and be condescending. Ying Tian is trying to push the front line.

Going back, pushing it back to the north is as difficult as climbing to the sky.

At that time, the Ming Dynasty would be like the Southern Song Dynasty at that time. Yanyun's Sixteen Prefectures stayed in the hands of others for so long and had no troops to regain it. Being rich is rich, but without any attack, I want to maintain it.

There is only compensation, compensation or compensation.

So whether to seize Jinan and capture the entire Shandong will become the top priority of the Jingnan Battle, and it can even be said to play a turning point. If it cannot be taken down, it will always be a suppression of the rebellion.

If Shandong is taken down, that is the real national war.

Inside the tent of the King of Yan.

The King of Yan led a group of generals to surround the sand table.

"I have sent someone to inquire. There are now two guards in Jinan Prefecture. The first one is an old acquaintance. His name is Sheng Yong and his personal guards around Jianwen. It seems that there is no one around Jianwen.

, even my own guards were taken out to save the venue?"

After hearing this, the generals laughed and the King of Yan continued.

"As for this second person, his name is Tie Xuan, from Henan, as far as I know, he was a civil servant in Shandong before and was in charge of transporting grain, grass and weapons to Li Jinglong. Jinan can only rely on a personal guard around the emperor.

There is also a civil servant who comes to guard the city. You can imagine how cramped Yingtian is now."

"I feel sorry for my eldest nephew. It would be a big pain to let him be the emperor."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

The soldiers laughed, and Zhu Song smiled slightly beside him to show his gregarity. Zhu Song knew that Tiexuan would be the most troublesome opponent Zhu Di encountered since his rebellion.

This time the strategy set for Jinan also changed Zhu Di's past style. Zhu Di's previous battles have always been elusive. To put it bluntly, it is timid.

But this time Zhu Di decided not to use his previous tactical style. This time he wanted to prove to the whole world that he would conquer Jinan City with an absolutely powerful style, so that most of the Ming Dynasty would surrender to him, and he wanted to prove to everyone in the world.

I am the one who can replace Emperor Taizu Gao.

The other generals took their own orders and continued to perform their duties, and now the only ones left in the camp are Zhu Di and Zhu Song.

Zhu Di looked at Zhu Song and said to him: "Twentieth brother, this time, four of you take the lead, you will be in charge of the central army, and the safety and retreat route of our camp will be fully delivered to you, although I have never liked to make retreat before the war begins.

route."

Zhu Song bowed to Zhu Di and said, "Fourth brother, don't worry, I will definitely be optimistic about my home, and the retreat route will be handled well. The logistics and supply are too long. I have asked Gao Chi to use the logistics supply through Dezhou.

Send it from Texas again.”

Zhu Di nodded and praised.

"It's so good. As long as I go through this battle, I can be condescending and despising Jianwen."

Zhu Song thought about it carefully, and after thinking about it, he decided to say to his fourth brother.

"Fourth brother, I have no other intentions. I just want to remind me that Sheng Yong has been in contact with him. When he came to Kaiyuan, if it weren't for the bitter trick I used, I'm afraid I wouldn't have

Then get out of here.”

"I have watched him marching and formation quietly, especially when he led his troops to Kaiyuan City, I saw it more clearly. This person is indeed not simple. At least he is better than Li Jinglong in terms of war.

More.”

"As for Tie Xuan, although I have never seen this person, I have also heard of his reputation. Although he has only participated in politics in Shandong, he is very loyal. Although he has never led troops to fight a war, he advocates integrity. If it is true
