"The general is mighty, the southern expedition is invincible all the way, and the old man is desperately hurrying to catch up with the army!"

"In the face of the Zheng thief elephant array, this battle is even more instantaneous, admire! Admire! ”

In the big tent of the Ming army, Mo Jingyu's old face was full of red light, and he was desperately patting Li Dingguo on the main seat.

Li Dingguo just smiled at him as a sign of politeness.

Mo Jingyu was thick-skinned and didn't feel embarrassed, and turned to Mu Tianbo, the Duke of Qianguo, and praised him, saying that the Duke of Qianguo deserved to be the founding minister of the Emperor Ming, the hero of the Mu family, and the pillar of Yunnan!

Mu Tianbo greeted each other with a smile, and the two politely praised each other, each satisfied.

Among the generals in the tent, Mu Tianbo was the most excited.

Since the Ming army entered the territory of Annam, several battles have been won at a very small cost, which filled Mu Tianbo's heart with joy.

For the first time, he felt that it was so cool to fight!

"Report!"

The tent door opened, and a man with a pennant in his hand came hurrying in.

"Speak!"

Li Dingguo ordered loudly, and the eager atmosphere in the tent suddenly quieted down.

"General! The forward army has swept away the battalions of the Annam Army on both flanks of Thang Long, and our army has suffered 20 casualties......"

"Good!"

Li Dingguo was overjoyed when he heard this, and ordered: "Order the whole army to march to Thang Long in an hour!" ”

Thang Long Fortress, the capital of Annam, is tall and sturdy, and if you want to attack it, you have to pay a lot of price.

What Li Dingguo has to do now is not to give Zheng the slightest chance to react! them directly!

......

Thang Long Palace.

On the throne, Zheng Jie, who closed his eyes and recuperated, remained motionless, as if he was about to ascend to heaven.

Two days ago, the Ming army's overwhelming offensive made him faint on the spot and he was in a coma for two days.

A palace guard came with small steps and said softly: "Great king, the prince is asking to see him outside the palace again, saying that he has an urgent matter to report. ”

Zheng Jie said unhappily: "There is an urgent matter again? Let him in! ”

In recent days, Zheng Jie has been very unhappy with the performance of the son, and has a faint idea of changing the son and letting the second Zheng Qiao succeed him.

Now Zheng Qiao is guarding Cishan, if he can defeat the Ming army with the elephant array, his prestige will inevitably rise, and it is a matter of course to change the prince......

In the middle of his thoughts, the prince Zheng Zheng hurriedly came, and said in a frightened tone: "Father, something is wrong!" ”

"What?"

Zheng Jie opened his eyes angrily and waved his hand to order the attendants beside him to go down.

"Father, the Ming army has attacked outside Thang Long City!"

Zheng Zheng was out of breath, he didn't take a breath, and said in a trembling voice: "Their troops are coming to the city and preparing to attack the city!" ”

Zheng Jie slapped the table angrily and shouted: "Nonsense! Your second brother Zheng Qiao is still guarding Cishan, Cishan is not broken, how can the Ming army reach Thang Long? ”

The old man is really angry, the prince seems to be stupid by the will of the Ming Emperor, and he preaches every day how strong the Ming army is, but today he goes crazy to show that the army is coming!

Could it be that the Ming army can fly? Bypass Cishan and kill Bensheng Dragon?

Zheng Zheng said with a crying voice: "Father, the son didn't lie to you, you can go and see for yourself!"

The prince didn't believe it at first, but when the guard dragged him up to the castle tower to take a look, he was stupid.

The day before yesterday, I also received a report from the second brother Zheng Qiao that the Ming army was coming to Cishan, but the second brother who was good at fighting promised in the letter that the Ming army could be defeated with an elephant array, and if it failed, it would be okay to hold Cishan for a month!

But in less than two days, the Ming army broke Cishan?

If it weren't for the fact that he saw dozens of elephants in the Ming army, the prince would not believe that the heavily armed Cishan was gone!

Zheng Jiehu looked at Shizi suspiciously, and suddenly asked, "You let this king go to the city tower?" Do you want to force your father to abdicate? ”

The prince always wanted to meddle in state affairs, and he was quite close to the generals defending the city, so Zheng Jie had to guard against it.

After all, the ***** usurpation of the throne is not uncommon in Annan.

Shizi was stunned at first, and then cried on the spot.

He was already disappointed in his father's way of doing things, and if it weren't for the Ming army, he really wanted to contact his cronies to launch a coup d'état and take the throne of this old thing!

Zheng Jie stared at Shizi closely, and when he saw that he was crying more and more, he said, "Come on, bring Li Weiqi!" ”

Li Weiqi, who is also the current Li Huang, is the chess piece of Zheng Zhu to order Annan, and Zheng Jie has always held this chess piece in order to prevent changes.

Lord Zheng hereditarily controlled the government from generation to generation, killing or deposing Emperor Li at will, but he did not dare to rashly depose Emperor Li and establish a new dynasty.

The reason is that the influence of the royal family of the Li Dynasty in Annam is extraordinary, and the Li Taizu Li led Annam to get rid of the rule of the Ming Dynasty in the north and established the independent Dayue Kingdom Li Dynasty, which broke the fear of the Vietnamese people for nearly a thousand years of fear of the Northern Celestial Dynasty, and the people still remember the great cause of the Li Dynasty Taizu.

Therefore, the Li Emperor Zheng Juju system, this dual system of one emperor and one lord in history continued until the fall of the Li Dynasty.

After a while, the guards came to report, but Emperor Li did not come.......

Zheng Jie was furious and scolded: "Shameless traitor, fall into the well!" Did he want to resist when he saw the Ming army coming! ”

He walked back and forth angrily, pointed to the guards and said, "Go find Bai Aya and let him hang himself!" ”

Zheng Jie's logic is very simple, forty years ago, this king's father could force your father to hang himself, and today this king can force you to hang himself!

Disobedient people, what do you keep them for? There are many puppets of the Li family!

Moreover, the original cause of this incident was that the Li Huang family designed to release the second prince Li Weixi behind their backs and go to Daming to complain!

After Emperor Daming issued an edict, Zheng Jie already had the idea of killing Emperor Li!

"Father's ......."

The prince was stunned, and hurriedly persuaded: "Father, this is a critical moment, don't add to the incident!" ”

"Shut up!"

Zheng Jie pointed at him and shouted: "This king will go up to the city tower with you now, if you coax this king, don't blame me for not being merciful, and even you will be dealt with together!" ”

After a quarter of an hour, Zheng Jie's father and son slowly walked out of the palace and went straight to the city tower.

In the middle of the king's drive, Zheng Jie also faintly heard the chaotic sound of the surrounding streets and alleys, but the street had been completely emptied by the palace guards.

He was very puzzled in his heart, but he still didn't believe that the Ming army appeared under Thang Long City.

When the guard saw Wang Jia, he hurriedly came to meet him, and presented a letter from the Ming army: "King, the Ming army issued an ultimatum, they threatened that if the king does not surrender today, they will kill the Zheng family!" ”

When Zheng Jie heard this, he saw that the guard general did not seem to be lying, and when he opened the letter, his face was immediately pale.

"Father, are you alright?" The son wanted to come up and support his father.

Zheng Jie broke free from the hands of the prince, hurried to the city wall, and looked down.

I saw the Ming army flag fluttering in the field, and the dense Ming army lined up outside Thang Long City, and a big flag in front of the formation was particularly conspicuous, and it was written: The Southern Army Governor's Mansion was ordered to rebel!

"How is this possible....... How can it be! ”

Zheng Jie's eyes widened in horror, and then he coughed desperately, his face turned blue.

He roared angrily: "What about Zheng Qiao? What about Zheng Qiao! Didn't they guard Cishan? Where is he! ”

Shizi said: "Father, the second brother was defeated and captured!" ”

"Ahh

When Zheng Jie heard this, he bent down in pain as if he had been struck by lightning, and then fell straight to the ground.

Seeing that the situation was not right, the prince quickly stepped forward, helped his old father, and shouted in panic: "Father, what's wrong with you?" ”

But I saw that my father's face was blue, his eyes were white, and he was already out of breath.

The stunned son was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly cried out in grief: "Father is dead! ”
