Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    With the arrival of spring, the ice and snow begin to melt.

    In this season of revival, we can finally see a little bit of greenery.

    Green buds began to sprout on the birch branches on both sides of the road, but Zhao Hongyu was not interested at all.

    "Modern society is better. Why is the road in this era so difficult?"

    At this time, Zhao Hongyu was constantly complaining about the people around him.

    Yes, the roads of this era are not as smooth as the cement highways of another modern time and space.  Because of the arrival of spring, the roads that were originally very solid due to the cold have become very muddy.

    Zhao Hongyu led Jay Chou¡¯s 25,000 troops on their way to Liaodong, and they had a thorough understanding of the road characteristics of this era.

    It is very difficult even for war horses to walk on such muddy roads, let alone people.

    The artillery in the army is even more difficult to move.

    Even though Zhao Hongyu had made complete preparations and purchased a large number of mules and horses, it was of no avail.

    ¡°Isn¡¯t that right? Dozens of the hundreds of artillery pieces in the center of the army were already stuck in the mud.

    This greatly delayed the march of the army.

    But Zhao Hongyu really has no other way to solve this problem besides complaining.

    Jay Chou followed Zhao Hongyu with an expression of deep understanding and approval on his face.

    "Your Highness, this is the seventeenth century after all, and there is nothing we can do about it. Spring flooding in the north actually happened in another time and space. It would have happened even during the Republic of China. So, we just have to endure it.  ."

    After listening to Jay Chou¡¯s words.  Zhao Hongyu let out a long sigh.

    Because what Jay Chou said is right.

    Zhao Hongyu turned his head and looked at Jay Chou, with a half-smiling expression on his face, which made Jay Chou roll his eyes.

    Because Jay Chou knows that his Highness will definitely use his name to make trouble next time.

    ¡° Sure enough, as soon as Zhao Hongyu opened his mouth, Jay Chou¡¯s judgment was confirmed.

    "What about that, Jay? Anyway, the army is building those artillery pieces right now, and the speed is not very fast. Take advantage of this moment to sing a song for us all, "Riding Li Xiang Oh no, it's Qili Xiang."

    Jay Chou pretended not to hear what Zhao Hongyu said, but the soldiers and guards around him couldn't help but laugh.

    Yes, after the siege of the capital was resolved, Jay Chou met Zhao Hongyu.

    When Zhao Hongyu listened to Jay Chou¡¯s introduction.  I was immediately shocked by his name.

    Therefore, no matter what happens, Zhao Hongyu will always make fun of Jay Chou.

    Fortunately, Jay Chou is also a genetic person with a modern thinking mode, so he doesn't care at all about such jokes.

    If you were a person of this era, if you didn't do this, it would make people feel rebellious.

    "Your Highness. Although my name is Jay Chou, I can tell you for sure that I am not a star from another time and space."

    Jay Chou, who pretended not to hear Zhao Hongyu¡¯s teasing, looked out of the corner of his eye and found that Zhao Hongyu had no intention of letting him go.  So he had no choice but to accept the conversation.

    "However, he didn't sing Qili Xiang.  Instead, he explained to Zhao Hongyu again in a dumbfounded manner.

    "Haha, just kidding, when I think of your name, I always think of that guy in another time and space."

    Zhao Hongyu and Jay Chou joked not once or twice, but Jay Chou really couldn't laugh or cry about this.

    To be honest, having such a name sometimes makes him really embarrassed.

    But this name was not something he wanted to have. It was a name that was automatically generated when Zhao Hongyu cultivated them. There was nothing he could do about it.

    You know, there is a guy named Huang Xiaoming over there in Jiuzhou.

    "You guys, send another team to help the artillery. We are very close to Datong now. If we work harder, we can reach Datong. If we always waste time like this, how long will it take us to reach Datong?  Arrive at Shanhaiguan."

    Jay Chou changed the topic.

    The reason why Jay Chou said he arrived at Shanhaiguan is because the city and land Zhu Shangwu took out as mortgage are located in a place called Jincheng outside Shanhaiguan.

    This place is very close to Shengjing in Houjin, so it can be said to be a special place.

      Originally, this place had been abandoned by the Ming Dynasty.

    However, it is now being used as collateral.

    In this regard, Zhao Hongyu was indifferent when he arrived.

    Because of the special geographical location of Jincheng, it was at the border of the Ming Dynasty, Goryeo and the Hou Jin Dynasty. In addition, it was abandoned by the Ming Dynasty, so it actually became a place of no concern for a period of time.

    Houjin is not interested in taking over this place yet, and their energy is focused on the annexation of Eastern Mongolia.

    Therefore, the people of Jincheng will have a relatively stable life during this period.

    However, because it is very close to Shengjing, it is inevitable to be harassed by the Houjin Eight Banners.

    Therefore, most of the people in Jincheng have left this place and gone to other cities to make a living.

    And those who stayed did so because they considered that their land was here and they would be reluctant to leave.

    ¡°To arrive at Jincheng, you must first arrive at Shanhaiguan.

    However, Datong is in the northwest of the capital, while Jincheng is in the northeast of the capital.

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????? Because we have to go to Datong to receive a group of soldiers who are awaiting punishment, this is the prerequisite for receiving the mortgage.  Therefore, Zhao Hongyu could only take a long detour and arrive in Datong first.

    ¡° Jay Chou, as a senior executive, is very clear about this.

    "Your Highness, do you think that the Ming Dynasty has such a troop of soldiers and horses by our side? In addition to monitoring us, do you have any other ideas?"

    For example, Sun Chuanting and the five hundred Ming troops, as well as the so-called criminal soldiers who were about to be received in Datong, were obviously staying in Jincheng with them.  To monitor them.

    Even an idiot can see this.

    but.  Zhao Hongyu did not refuse.

    Because having such a Ming army around, it is beneficial to quickly take over the Ming people in Jincheng and let them return home in a short time.

    Otherwise, as an outsider, it will be very difficult for the people of Ming Dynasty to accept you.

    You know, Akito is also quite repulsive to others.

    "No matter what they think, it won't have any impact on us. Does Zhu Shangwu think he can pay back the money within the scheduled time? What a joke!" Zhao Hongyu smiled evilly.  "He will only owe more and more money. So Jincheng is destined to become our base."

    ¡° Jay Chou has no doubt about this.

    ¡° Taking into account the current tax revenue of Ming Dynasty, it would be a terrible thing to pay back the more than 10 million taels of silver that it currently owes.

    ¡°And His Highness will definitely keep digging holes for the Ming court and that weird emperor to jump into.

    So, what Jay Chou said to Zhao Hongyu.  That is a deep belief.

    Zhao Hongyu continued at this time: "And Zhu Shangwu made it clear that Sun Chuanting and the Ming army here in Datong mainly follow us to fight, and we can do whatever we want. With Zhu Shangwu's will, do you think they can still  What kind of big wave is coming?"

    Jay Chou rolled his eyes and a smirk appeared on his face.

    "Your Highness. It seems that you already have a countermeasure in mind for this."

    Zhao Hongyu nodded.

    "Having Sun Chuanting and the others is actually a good thing for us. At that time, the security of Jincheng will be left to them. As for the defense of the territory, it will be left to you. There is no need to worry about you being distracted.  It¡¯s a distraction, isn¡¯t it?¡±

    Yes.  After all, Jincheng is too close to Shengjing.

    From time to time, they were robbed by the Eight Banners soldiers of Houjin.

    So, I accepted such a mortgage.  If you don't want to suffer too much loss, then you must take good defense.

    "They have a good plan. It seems they want to use us to take the lead and fight against the Jinba Banner."

    Jay Chou also saw through some of the truth behind this.

    After listening to Jay Chou¡¯s complaints, Zhao Hongyu waved his hand indifferently.

    "It doesn't matter. With your reinforcements of 25,000 people, I don't think there will be any danger in a short period of time. As long as we arrive in Jincheng, I will mobilize a group of reinforcements from Kyushu, then  Don¡¯t worry about Hou Jin¡¯s Eight Banners soldiers.¡±

    In Zhao Hongyu¡¯s plan, he planned to mobilize troops from Kyushu to increase his strength.

    Of course, he could not mobilize imperial soldiers, but wanted to mobilize a group of Japanese soldiers.

    hey-hey!

    Let the Japanese soldiers and the Eight Banners?It must be very interesting to think about it.

    At this time, all the artillery pieces stuck in the mud at the rear have been lifted out.  The army began to advance slowly again. After Zhao Hongyu and Jay Chou got the news, they mobilized their horses and started to move with the army.

    "Your Highness, the number of imperial soldiers in Kyushu is not very large. If you mobilize too many troops, it will cause Kyushu's defense to be empty. What if"

    Although Jay Chou has not finished what he said, Zhao Hongyu also understands what kind of problem Jay Chou is worried about.

    Aren¡¯t we just worried that if Kyushu¡¯s troops are insufficient, the Japanese will have the opportunity to rebel?

    ¡°After all, to the Japanese, Zhao Hongyu and the others were considered invaders.

    Actually, Jay Chou has such worries because he has not been to Kyushu to see the situation there.

    If he had gone to Kyushu, he would not be so worried about this aspect.

    "However, you can't say that Jay Chou's worries are unreasonable.

    "It's just that Jay Chou doesn't know Zhao Hongyu's real plan.

    Therefore, seeing Jay Chou expressing worries in this regard, Zhao Hongyu felt that it was necessary for him to explain.

    Therefore, as soon as Jay Chou finished speaking, Zhao Hongyu explained: "Jay Chou, I understand your concerns. But the ones I want to mobilize are not imperial soldiers, but Japanese soldiers recruited."

    When talking about his plan, Zhao Hongyu was really excited.

    "Think about it, how fun it would be if the Japanese soldiers and the Eight Banners soldiers fought to the death"
