Hongdu.
Half a month ago, King Ning Zhu Chenhao passed through Nanchang Prefecture, killed generals, and went straight to Hongdu City. After 130,000 troops were stationed in Hongdu, King Ning planned to continue his efforts and go straight to Anqing, the gateway to Nanjing.
The reason why it went so smoothly was that Prince Ning¡¯s rebellion had been planned for ten years, and Prince Ning¡¯s family had been accumulating strength for 150 years.
The Zhengde "Clothing Edict" brought by Cao Zhengchun and Liu Jin only gave King Ning a good excuse. He would rebel if it had or not.
From the very beginning, King Ning's plan was to raise troops from Nanchang Prefecture, capture the city of Nanjing as quickly as possible, and then use the natural dangers of the Yangtze River and Nanjing's natural advantages of tigers and dragons to accumulate strength and fight against the imperial court on the river. rule.
In the past ten years, King Ning has used money to clear the way and bribed many county magistrates. Therefore, he came all the way from Nanchang Mansion to Hongdu City with almost no resistance!
But since entering Hongdu City, King Ning has never had a good day!
Because of that damn Wang Shouren!
Wang Shouren is the governor of southern Jiangxi. Originally, when King Ning raised his troops, he was the first to kill the guards. However, for some unknown reason, the news leaked and Wang Shouren escaped!
Originally, King Ning didn't care about the little Wang Shouren, thinking that he had no soldiers and power, and he couldn't make a big splash!
But soon King Ning knew that he was wrong!
Some people, even if they are completely different, can still make huge waves!
Since entering Hongdu City, rumors have been flying in the streets and alleys. Soon it was said that the imperial army had gathered in Nanjing.
After a while, they said that the "Edict on Clothes and Belts" in King Ning's hand was a forgery!
After a while, he said that the imperial court had mobilized border troops to launch a surprise attack on Nanchang Mansion.
After a while, the imperial court gathered another 180,000 troops and was preparing to attack Hongdu City.
These rumors were naturally the work of Wang Shouren. Prince Ning knew they were false, but Wang Shouren said they had noses and eyes.
Where the imperial court dispatched the anti-rebellion army and which general led it, there is no flaw in even the slightest detail.
King Ning doesn¡¯t believe it, but he can¡¯t bear the belief of his subordinates!
What¡¯s even more disgusting is that among the rumors, there is also a surrender letter from the imperial court, saying that Liu Yangzheng and Li Shishi, the top advisers under Prince Ning, have been ordered to peace by the imperial court, and they are also asked to persuade Prince Ning to attack Nanjing quickly!
It was such a coincidence that when rumors spread, Liu Yangzheng and Li Shishi cooperated very well to persuade King Ning to abandon Hongdu and attack Nanjing quickly!
What do you want Prince Ning to think?
Therefore, King Ning was stationed in Hongdu City for half a month, working hard to organize defense positions, waiting for Wang Shouren's counter-rebellion army.
But half a month later, the imperial court did not wait for the 180,000 rebels to be quelled, but King Ning waited for the news that Lin Li came to Nanjing to take over the Nanjing garrison!
At this time, if Prince Ning doesn¡¯t know that he is being tricked, then he will be a pig!
Immediately, King Ning turned over the table and greeted all the eighteen generations of Wang Shouren's ancestors!
The regents of the Ming Dynasty have arrived in Nanjing. Is it still far to quell the rebel army?
King Ning wasted the best opportunity to attack Nanjing. Now it will be ten times more difficult to attack Nanjing City!
What made King Ning even more blind was that spies from the rear reported that the abominable Wang Shouren had somehow managed to get hold of Wu Wending, the prefect of Ji'an, and was recruiting troops to form a 100,000-strong rebel army, preparing to attack his home base of Wuchang. Mansion'.
This time it¡¯s not a rumor. Wang Shouren¡¯s 100,000 rebels are almost at Wuchang Mansion. King Ning is so anxious that he jumps to his feet!
Whether to return to aid Wuchang or attack Nanjing became a difficult question before King Ning!
King Ning immediately summoned his confidants, Liu Jin and Cao Zhengchun to discuss!
"We should concentrate all our efforts to attack Nanjing. As long as we capture Nanjing, we can rule the north and south of the imperial court and compete with each other!"
Cao Zhengchun¡¯s attitude was very obvious. As soon as he heard that Lin Li had arrived in Nanjing, what was there to say? Just attack Nanjing! It's best to beat Lin Li to death!
But Liu Yangzheng and Li Shishi, under King Ning, had different opinions!
"Nanjing is the old capital of the Ming Dynasty. The city has high walls and thick walls. Now that the regent has arrived in Nanjing, the imperial army must be ready to counter the rebellion. If we attack Nanjing now, I am afraid that we will be fulfilling the regent's wish. He is waiting for work in leisure, and our army will inevitably suffer heavy losses. !¡±
King Ning nodded and agreed with Liu Yangzheng¡¯s opinion!
Liu Jin said impatiently: "You don't have to be afraid. Now the main force of the imperial army has been scattered by the Japanese pirates in Northern Mongolia and the southeastern coast. There are not many troops to suppress the rebellion. The 'Tiedan Shenhou' should only have 50,000 standing garrison troops in Nanjing!"
theBut now, neither Liu Jin nor Cao Zhengchun recognized Lin Li, the newly minted "regent."
Liu Yangzheng said to King Ning: "But most of our soldiers are from Nanchang. Now Wang Shouren leads an army of 100,000 to attack Nanchang. Those of us who stay in Nanchang may not be able to defend it.
Once Nanchang falls into the hands of the imperial court, our soldiers will definitely not be willing to fight with all their heart, so how can we talk about taking Nanjing! "
King Ning said with a headache: "This is also what I am worried about. In this expedition, we will bring out all the elite troops in Nanchang. There are not many troops left in Nanchang, and there is no way to stop Wang Shouren!"
Cao Zhengchun said at this time: "But we are in Hongdu, too far away from Nanchang, so we may not be able to rescue them in time. On the contrary, the city of Nanjing is right in front of us.
If we make an all-out attack on Nanjing, Wang Shouren might rescue Nanjing and abandon Nanchang! "
Li Shishi said anxiously: "This is worse, then we will be attacked from both sides. There are the Nanjing garrison of the regent in front and Wang Shouren's rebel army behind!"
These words finally made King Ning stand up, walked to the map, thought about it for a long time and said:
"We may not be able to rescue you if we return to Nanchang, and if we attack Nanjing, we will be surrounded by enemies from both sides. Where should I go now?"
Liu Yangzheng and Li Shishi were direct descendants of Prince Ning, and their families were in Nanchang, so they naturally had selfish motives for rescuing Nanchang.
But King Ning also has selfish motives, because his whole family is also in Nanchang!
On the other hand, Cao Zhengchun and Liu Jin were alone and had no worries. Naturally, they had no other thoughts. They just wanted to go to Nanjing to seek revenge from Lin Li!
So, Cao Zhengchun and Liu Jin also have selfish motives!
????????????What can a group of selfish people come together to discuss?
¡¡¡¡
Anji County, the headquarters of the rebels!
Wang Shouren looked at Nanchang Mansion on the map and fell into deep thought!
He also has a difficult problem now, whether to attack Nanchang or support Nanjing!
This is not decided by him, but by Prince Ning¡¯s choice!
"If they attack Nanchang, but King Ning attacks Nanjing, Wang Shouren's rebel army will be busy in vain.
If the rebels abandon Nanchang and return to Nanjing, they may fall into King Ning's trap again!
Now Wang Shouren is betting on King Ning¡¯s choice!
If the bet wins, then Prince Ning¡¯s rebel army will be wiped out. If the bet loses, the Ming Dynasty will lose half of its country!
At this time, Wang Shouren didn¡¯t know that Lin Li had arrived in Nanjing. He was in Anji and the information was lagging behind!
But when a scout came to Wang Shouren's tent and brought him a pigeon!
Wang Shouren immediately ordered the entire army to march towards Nanchang!
Wang Shouren looked at the note in his hand. There were only three words and a seal on it.
The three characters are "Poyang Lake", and the seal belongs to the regent! (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
