734 Another draw from the bottom of the pot
Sure enough, Ruan Jun really had to retreat when he had a great advantage.
Zheng Zha was also a character. After careful observation, he couldn't help but be overjoyed and immediately asserted: "This is a true retreat, not a fraud. It seems that there has been a major change in the rebellion of the Ruan family, otherwise it would not be possible. It is really God helping me, God helping me!"
He didn't know that Nguyen Phuket had happily shouted "God helps me", but the result was "God destroys him".
At this time, Zheng Za was so excited that he immediately convened a military convention and began to deploy a counterattack.
Ruan Jun is now in Zheng’s territory, and the terrain and so on. Of course, Zheng Jun knows it better.
So, Zheng Za issued a heavy reward order, and the Ruan army took advantage of their geographical advantage to start counterattacking the Ruan army.
The most difficult point in the war is to withdraw troops safely when the enemy's main force is not destroyed.
On the side of Ruan Jun, Ruan Phuc was eager to go back and take back his lair, and was anxious. In this way, Ruan Jun naturally could not have no flaws in withdrawing his troops.
So, Zheng's army seized the opportunity and defeated the Ruan Army in Nanding and Jianping.
Ruan Jun's retreat finally turned into a retreat, and it was flooding thousands of miles away.
When Zheng Za heard this, he was overjoyed and gathered all his troops himself. Taking advantage of the victory to pursue him, he thought of taking this great opportunity to destroy the Ruan family.
In fact, whether it is the Ruan tribe in the south or the Zheng tribe in the north, their strength is equal, which means that there will be a decades-long battle between the north and the south.
If there is a problem with Zheng's family in the north, the Ruan family in the south can take advantage; similarly, if there is a problem with the Ruan family in the south, the Zheng family in the north can take advantage.
Before, Ruan Army could fight to the north, occupy the Xidu, and even reach the city of Dongdu. Now it is natural that it is extremely difficult to escape back. After being chased by Zheng Zao, countless casualties can be said to be killed and injured.
Not long after, Zheng Za recaptured Xidu and stood on the head of Qinghua City. He was full of energy and caught up with the previous Nguyen Phuc.
He saw him looking at the corpses everywhere outside the city, waved his hand boldly and said, "You must kill the snake when you hit it. Take this great opportunity to quell the rebellion for many years in one fell swoop, capture the Ruan tribe, and sacrifice to the Taimiao!"
"The prince is wise!" After hearing this, his ministers flattered them one after another.
Zheng Za was named King Xiding, and there was a puppet emperor on it. Therefore, the ministers still called him the prince, but they were actually the emperors from the north and south.
"The prince is a genius who is rare in the Great Li Dynasty. The rebellion of the Ruan clan will only be pacified in the hands of the prince!"
"The prince was ordered to quell the rebellion of the Ruan clan in times of crisis. He is indeed the true dragon emperor and deserves the throne!"
"The people of my Li Dynasty all obey the prince. This position of emperor should abdicate to the prince!"
"That's right, the prince is the true dragon emperor!"
“…”
He wears everything but does not wear flattery. Zheng Za himself feels that he has done what his ancestors have not been able to do and will soon quell the rebellion of the Ruan tribe in the south. Should he really consider the position of emperor and go further?
Having laughed, he immediately passed the order, ordering his troops not to stop, and to chase and defeat the retreating Ruan Army and kill the snake!
So, his army rushed to chase and killed the retreating Ruan Army, and he recaptured the Xidu, and in the hall where Nguyen Phuc once celebrated the capture of the Xidu, he also celebrated the restoration of the Xidu.
Singing, laughing, cups and cups intertwined, and there was a festive atmosphere in the hall. Everyone flattered Zheng Za, as if Ruan Jun had been destroyed.
Suddenly, there were rapid footsteps outside the hall, which was so loud that the ministers sitting at the door could hear it very clearly.
At this time, any urgent report can be reported, it is nothing more than the front-line military information.
Now that Ruan Jun's defeat has been decided, it is impossible to have the art of turning the world back.
Therefore, the minister quickly heard loudly at Zheng Zha: "Prince, I'm afraid there will be another good news. Maybe the rebellious Ruan Phuc is on the verge of beheading!"
After he said this, the others naturally heard the rapid footsteps coming from outside the hall when they were quiet.
Therefore, they naturally did not want to fall behind and started to flatter Zheng Za. Anyway, they just took some saliva and could win the favor of the prince. Maybe they could get greater benefits when they ascend the throne.
"It must be a great victory, otherwise, if you win an ordinary battle, why should you be so anxious!"
"Can it be that Nguyen Phuket was captured alive? The empress suggested that this beast be cut into pieces to serve as a warning!"
"No, no, no, I think it's time to cut him off and let him enter the palace to serve the prince!"
“…”
Zheng Za laughed loudly when he heard this, and stroked his not-so-long beard, and was very proud.
At this moment, a figure appeared at the door. As soon as he appeared at the entrance of the hall, he rolled in "thump".
"Prince, it's not good, Prince, it's not good..."
Hearing this, the hall immediately became very quiet. No one expected that it would be a good news!
Suddenly, Zheng Za's face turned pale, and he slapped the table in anger and shouted loudly: "Who was defeated in such a good situation? I want to kill him!"
When he thought, there was only one bad news, that is, when a general was chasing Ruan Jun, he was defeated by Ruan Jun. He made up his mind to kill such a pig-like general.
"No...No..." After hearing this, the person who reported the news finally returned to normal. Although he was still a little stuttering, he could point out the key points. He only heard him report in panic, "It was the Ming army... the Ming army went up the sea and attacked Shenglong Mansion!"
"What?" Zheng Za was so scared that he stood up and confirmed in disbelief, "Ming Army? Why did the Ming Army come to Annan?"
The Ming army only came to Annan more than two hundred years ago. But after being repelled, for so many years, no matter what Annan was like, the Ming Dynasty never cared about Annan.
That is, the traitor Mo Deng gave Annan to the Ming Dynasty when he saw that he was defeated. At that time, the Ming Dynasty interfered in Annan in name, but it was not as good as sending troops.
Why did the Ming army suddenly send troops at this time? His first reaction was that he couldn't believe it was true!
"It is said...it is said..." The messenger replied, "The Ming army was talking about suppressing the rebellion, saying that the Annan thief army was dissatisfied...it was dissatisfied with Wang Hua, wars...it was endless, and the people...it was not busy with their lives. The Xuanwei Office was changed to Annan Province!"
The words were a bit illogical, and they were inverted, but the people in the hall heard the meaning clearly, which was the meaning of the Ming Dynasty to re-occupate Annan.
Suddenly, everyone's hearts were cold!
If the Zheng army did not lose its troops during the confrontation between the north and the south, then Zheng Za still had the confidence to resist the Ming army's invasion. But now, his father first led his troops to attack the Ruan tribe and returned; then he was attacked by the Ruan army and was also defeated, even angering his father to death.
The loss of troops was unprecedented. In a sudden turn of opportunity, he led all his troops to chase Ruan's army. Suddenly, at this time, the Ming army suddenly rushed from the sea to Shenglong Mansion. This was a kind of killing him and he was unable to resist at all.
Zheng Za believed that in addition to the Ming army at sea, there must be another Ming army in the north who would also enter Annan. This was obviously a long-planned Ming army, and it was absolutely impossible that there was only one force in the whole line.
"Why, why, why did the Ming army come here at this time?"
In the hall, Zheng Za's roaring sounded that the dust on the roof of the hall was falling, but no minister spoke because they could not answer this question.
With a "slam" sound, Zheng Za swept all the wine and food in front of him to the ground, making a scattered sound.
At this time, Zheng Za suddenly understood why Ruan Jun suddenly retreated. It was probably because Ruan Feng encountered the same problem as him and was attacked by the Ming army!
In addition, he could not imagine any situation that would allow Ruan Jun to withdraw his troops suddenly when he had all the advantages.
If the Ming army also raided the rear of the Ruan army, everything would be explained. Moreover, the reason for the Ming army to send troops was consistent. For the Ming country, the Ruan family was also rebellious!
After venting, Zheng Za calmed down and left and issued a military order, requiring all front-line troops to stop chasing Ruan Jun and immediately contact Ruan Jun. He wanted to negotiate with Ruan Feng in person.
Zheng Za thought it very clearly that in this situation, it was obviously impossible to resist the Ming army by relying solely on his own strength.
Therefore, under the predicament of the enemy, he decided to temporarily put aside his grudges with Nguyen Phuc and join forces to have hope of confronting the Ming army.
Zheng Za believed that with the talent shown by Nguyen Phuc, he should be able to understand this truth. Only by uniting together to fight against the great powers from the north is the only way out.
Then, sometimes, imagination is beautiful, reality is skinny.
Zheng Jun and Ruan Jun fought one after another, and the dog's brains were all out. Now Zheng Zu and Ruan Phuc are both wanting to negotiate, but the people below may not be able to turn this corner in a row.
In the war between the two sides, how many people died, including comrades, relatives, friends, etc., died at the hands of each other. Those who fight to the common people will only recognize their grudges, and who will take care of the overall situation?
Just when you are about to turn defeat into victory, you are about to take revenge and not fight. Who can be happy?
Therefore, although Zheng Za's military orders were passed on, it was impossible for the execution of the following orders to be implemented at all. If it is really possible to retreat to Shenglong Mansion, it is impossible to almost be destroyed.
Later, the news could not be controlled. After all, the Ming army went up the river to attack Shenglong Mansion, and there were so many people who saw it.
Therefore, although Zheng's army did not pursue Ruan's army, new situations emerged.
The power of the Ming Dynasty was deeply rooted in the hearts of every Annan person. Now that the Ming army has launched a large-scale attack on Annan, who is not afraid? Not to mention, many people's homes are in Shenglong Mansion, and they are even more panic under their families.
Therefore, under this situation, it was not so easy for Zheng Za to quickly shake hands with Nguyen Phuc and join forces to resist the Ming army.
