Chapter 477 – The Sacred Sun
Hearing this, Yiluoha did not dare to hesitate. Immediately hurried away.
In fact, he was actually confused himself.
This is the palace, the rules are strict in the palace, which person would dare to be so bold? Not to mention that His Majesty is angry, even when His Majesty is in a good mood, he would never forgive such a thing.
Thinking of this, he also can not help but be angry, a smoke out of the temple, a face of murderous anger, is about to teach people to catch.
Looking from afar, there was indeed a man flying and riding, followed by a number of eunuchs trotting along.
Yiluoha turned toward the guards on duty, “Quickly, take it down.”
The forbidden guards were also a bit disoriented, after all, they had never encountered such a thing, at that moment, they all pressed their swords and rushed forward at a quick pace to meet them.
But something magical happened.
As soon as these forbidden guards approached the man, they actually immediately loosened the hilts of the swords at their waists, and then without hesitation, they fell aside in obeisance, and then the man strangled his horse and continued on his way.
Wherever he passed, no one even dared to block him.
Yilostha looked out desperately, and that’s when he saw the familiar figure.
Suddenly, his heart was shocked, and he no longer cared about Zhu Di’s decree, but was busy jogging forward.
And at this time, Zhu Zhanji has reached the door of the temple not far away.
Yizhuoha eyes with tears, nat head to worship, buttocks pouting high, head deeply buried, said:” slave girl has seen your highness, your highness you …… ”
Zhu Zhanji is in armor, the whole person is dusty, but it is in high spirits, only nodding towards Yiluoha, at this time finally dismounted, and then majestically walked with a tiger’s footsteps.
Actually press the knife, long body into the temple, the eunuchs who passed, have bowed down, the atmosphere does not dare to come out.
Zhu Di was in the palace, hearing the sound of hoofbeats stop, but his mood did not improve in the slightest.
He scanned the crowd a glance, grimly said: “Today brewing trouble, is that I’m not strict under the emperor, the palace, Henan and Guanzhong all so, so that the area of the vermin, dare to be so rampant. As for the local state and county officials, no action, and even suspected that some people and thieves in collusion, today’s minister left a mouth to pacify, right a sentence to think twice, my grandson …… is still at stake, and what to pacify, but also think twice about what?”
As he spoke, Zhu gritted his teeth, his tiger’s eyes rounded, and his murderous aura was evident.
At that moment, there was the sound of footsteps.
Zhu was instantly alerted, his thick eyebrows deeply furrowed.
Zhu Di is what he is, long in the army, this is the most sensitive.
The eunuchs in the palace wore only cloth shoes and walked noiselessly, fearing that they would make noise and disturb the Holy Spirit.
But there is a kind of boot that makes a characteristic sound when it knocks against the copper bricks in the temple, and this boot sound is exactly what military boots make.
At this time, there are people wearing military boots, and footsteps in a hurry, so that Zhu Di premonition of the visitor is not good.
Subconsciously, a glint swept through Zhu Di’s tiger eyes.
His tiger’s eyes lifted and his gaze was like a sword as he looked toward the door of the temple.
However, at this moment, he actually saw an unfamiliar figure, wearing a suit of armor, appear in front of the temple door.
The man in front of me, a military outfit, can also be described as a tiger’s back, slightly dark skin color, taut face, a closer look ……
In a matter of moments, Zhu actually seemed as if his body was fixed all of a sudden.
The face of the visitor, really too familiar, why not like the young Zhu Di? Only this person is more energetic, a pair of eyes, especially have a kind of indescribable tiger gas.
The hundred officials felt surprised that there was suddenly an uninvited guest, thus they all looked over in dismay.
To know, the appearance of the young man can be said to be one year a kind, especially after Zhu Zhanji experienced some things, that once fair complexion, but now it is gray, and the whole person’s temperament has also undergone a radical change, so that many people only feel that this young man’s face is very familiar, but for a moment they can not recognize who is the person.
Right at this moment, Zhu Zhanji said aloud, “Sun Chen has met his Imperial Grandfather.”
Chu: “……”
The temple was violently quiet.
Zhang Anshi, on the other hand, after seeing Zhu Zhanji, he was so excited that his body trembled with excitement.
Only to see Zhu Zhanji salute as ceremoniously bowed down, kowtowed and said, “Sun Chen misses the imperial grandfather, rashly intruded into the palace, is really the crime of ten thousand deaths.”
Zhu Di that because of days of worry and tense face, like in vain relaxed, then only realized that everything in front of him is not in a dream.
And the hundred officials were already in an uproar.
Zhu fiercely wanted to open his mouth to say something, but the old eyes could not help but be moist, like what was blocked between the throats all of a sudden.
He took a step down the hall, as if he was afraid that the person in front of him would suddenly disappear, his eyes didn’t dare to blink for a moment, and he looked straight at Zhu Zhanji.
Even when walking, there was some hobbling in his steps.
Until the line to the side of Zhang Anshi, Zhu Di suddenly bellowed, toward Zhang Anshi: “Do something, there should be priorities, into your mother, do things without a trace of proportion!”
“Ah …… this ……” Zhang Anshi was a bit confused.
Yang Rong and the others, coldly looked at the disoriented Zhang Anshi, but only Yang Rong had a look of understanding.
If the imperial grandson has a mistake, Zhang Anshi may not suffer chastisement, because His Majesty has a number in his heart, the imperial son, the royal grandson, should have been defending a side, when the emperor was the king of Yan, he also defended Beiping, and if there is a thief coming to offend, it will never compromise.
So in essence, the Emperor thought that Zhang Anshi had done the right thing, and no matter how much other people impeached Zhang Anshi, His Majesty would never reprimand him.
Because once His Majesty rebukes, then the hundred officials will surely think that there is an opportunity to take advantage of it, and then the wall will fall down and push everyone to push, which will surely put Zhang Anshi in a desperate situation. With His Majesty’s long-standing defense of Zhang Anshi, he would never want to do that.
But now it’s different, now that the royal grandson has returned safely, then the nature has changed.
Since the royal grandson back, the crisis is lifted, then fear so many days, to His Majesty’s temperament, you Zhang Anshi this brain missing a tendon of the guy, somehow teach the royal grandson a railroad division of the deputy envoys to fight thieves, you this is not the brain into the water?
At this time, of course, if you want to scold! Cursed you also have to suffer, anyway, the crisis is lifted, but also just scolded.
But Zhang Anshi is aggrieved!
He drooped his head and was tempted to argue and tell Zhu Di that it was your lackluster grandson who did this ……
But in the end, he didn’t dare to say anything and could only look aggrieved beyond measure.
After Zhu Di scolded, but the pace towards the Zhu Zhanji, stood in front of the Zhu Zhanji, fixedly looked for a while, before a hand will Zhu Zhanji help up.
And carefully scrutinized some, seems to have a thousand words want to say, but in the end, to the edge of the mouth, only a sentence: “Junji, you actually came back?”
“Yes, Imperial Grandfather, Sun Chen is back.” Zhu Zhanji said with a tiger’s face, decisively.
Zhu Di at this time has long since lost the appearance of the original Jingdan Vassal King, the great general. Just like all the old people who love their children and grandchildren, grasping the arm of Zhu Zhanji’s hand can not help but tremble, lips mumbling, wet eyes up and down to measure Zhu Zhanji, the line of sight can not move away from a little bit, the heart seems to not know that there are many of the gratification.
Then he said with a few heartbreaking tones, “Good, good, it’s great to be back, this way to escape from the crowd of thieves, I’m afraid it’s not easy.”
Zhu Zhanji said, “It’s easy to come back, but it’s true that it’s a bit hard to kill the thieves.”
“Kill a thief?” Zhu Di looked at Zhu Zhanji in dismay.
Zhu Zhanji said, “Sun Chen got the authorization from A Uncle ……”
Zhang Anshi eyes a sheet, winced, grudgingly glanced at Zhu Zhanji, he hated ……
I Zhang Anshi wasted his life, the only important love and righteousness, to his nephew, but also as their own son, who would expect that in the end, but also for him to take this black pot.
Outrageous, this guy lies without blushing.
Zhu, on the other hand, raised an eyebrow and said, “And after that ……”
Zhu Zhanji said: “Guanzhong military people, has been natural disasters, and suffered man-made disasters, it is not easy to live a few days of peace and quiet, but also encountered the thieves chaos. The thieves rampant, rape and pillage, no evil. Sun Chen will follow the uncle’s secret instructions, recruiting people, Sun Chen’s banner, so as to attract the attention of the thieves.”
“These thieves, also know that they can’t last long, once the imperial court’s army arrives, it will surely devastate them, and at that time, it will be the time when they die without a burial place. Because of this, Sun Chen has put up a banner, but taught them to see the hope of survival, they must think that only by breaking through Chang’an County and taking down Sun Chen, will they have the leverage to blackmail the court.”
Zhu Zhanqi said with a felicitous voice.
But Zhu Di and the hundred officials were shocked to hear it.
Reason is so reasonable, but take yourself as a bet, to attract the Guanzhong rebels, this a bold, but ordinary people dare not to imagine.
Zhu Di listened attentively, he had been in the military for a long time, so he could naturally distinguish the truth in Zhu Zhanji’s words.
Zhu Zhanji added, “In order to protect the border and secure the people, Sun Chen took this opportunity to make secret preparations.”
Zhu said, “Make preparations for what?”
Zhu Zhanji said: “The so-called heaven and earth, heaven and earth, people and harmony, heaven and earth is not to be said, Sun Chen to wait for the labor, occupying the geographical advantage. And Sun Chen led the army and people, none of them do not want to crush the thieves, so that Guanzhong, as well as their wives, children and children safe, this is the people and. Sunchen judgment, first …… of all, the thieves are bound to be tired from a long distance, but they are forced to launch an attack in haste, because the time is not waiting for him, once delayed, the court’s reinforcements will arrive, they will definitely lose.”
“In addition to this, they also have a huge weakness, that is, these thieves, hastily gathered in one place, but in reality, did not integrate, if the good times are okay, once to the adversity, it is extremely easy to fall apart.”
Zhu listened and kept nodding his head.
These judgments are right! He looked at the tiny Zhu Zhanji, never expecting that this youngster in front of him, could see the weaknesses of the thieves at a glance.
Zhu Zhanji was talking on the spur of the moment, so he continued, “After understanding their weaknesses, we should know their strengths. They have a lot of people, especially a lot of war horses, come and go like the wind, so they can quickly rally, and the number is Sun Chen is ten times. What’s more,…… they know they have no way out, so they formed the momentum of breaking the boat, once they launch an attack, they will definitely do their best, after all,…… if they can’t take Sun Chen, they will lose everything.”
“Sun Chen then took advantage of the effort to wait for the effort, with the help of the terrain, selected the location of the duel, and ordered all the soldiers and civilians, organized, building fortifications, Sun Chen’s soldiers and horses are small, but the Model Battalion has a powerful firearms, and strict military discipline, of course, the bad thing is that the consumption of ammunition is only difficult to sustain.”
“To that day, the thieves launched an attack, their momentum is indeed not small, and the number of people, has been a fierce battle until the imminent darkness, see the ammunition consumption is getting bigger, and the thieves seem to know that they have no retreat, but still keep attacking ……”
Zhu Di frowned as he listened.
In fact, marching and fighting, the most afraid of encountering is this kind of no retreat enemy. Two armies fighting, the defeated can still escape, the big deal is to escape back to their own borders, but these thieves, in a sense, formed the so-called military often said the so-called broken kettle sinking boat effect.
And once as soon as they were allowed to have a breakthrough in one of the defenses, these people could quickly break through with the advantage of being outnumbered.
By that time …… glued together with each other, firearms will instead be of little use.
At this time, Zhu Zhanji said, “Sun Chen, however, seized the moment.”
Zhu Di obviously to bring up a strong interest, busy, “What timing?”
Zhu Zhanji said, “They are still hanging on to their last breath and the timing of the day is getting late.”
Zhu Di listened, pondered, raised his eyes, at this time, Zhu Di, like a chess player, with a heavy mood, and the game of the people to climb: “Then you will choose how to do?”
Zhu Zhanji said calmly, “Take advantage of this opportunity to make a direct counter-charge!”
Zhu Zhanji decisively said, “Sun Chen’s leadership can guarantee the morale, the model battalion’s order is forbidden, will certainly be the first, the rest of the army and the people are inspired, will be as strong as a rainbow. On the contrary, the thieves, they fought a fierce battle for a day, already physically and mentally exhausted, and the casualties are very great, at this time for them, the only hope is to be able to hold on for a little while, break through Sun Chen’s line of defense only!”
“And once the counter charge is made, they are firstly caught off guard and unprepared, and secondly, their morale is bound to hit rock bottom, and they will inevitably flee, and geographically, Sun Chen is on the high ground, creating the momentum of a fierce tiger descending from the mountain, so how can they resist?”
Zhu Di heard, can not help but fierce mood cheerful up, constantly nodding, one side said: “right, should be so, just …… say simple, do is not easy, before it is the thieves to break the boat, but this move, it became the official army to break the boat, the momentum is like a bamboo. ”
Zhu Zhanji said: “Sun Chen did this, not just want to win this one, but according to the enemy situation to judge, Sun Chen just said, although the thieves are powerful, but just a group of no retreat of the thieves cohesion, there is no clear leader, divided into a lot of the Department of the crowd, to say, they are just a group of no retreat, trying to rely on a deadly battle to live the rabble! They are just a group of people who have no way to retreat and want to rely on a deadly battle to survive. This counter-charge, no matter how many people on the other side, will be enough to finalize the victory.”
“Sure enough, these thieves began to appear defeated and fled, and then, among themselves, began to scramble and trample, no one at all restrained, one by one, such as the birds of the bow, Sun Chen then led the people all the way to chase and kill, not a night, they will be ashes and smoke.”
Zhu Di took a deep breath, he couldn’t expect that Zhu Zhanji would have such scheming.
You know, to make an analysis is easy, but to make a judgment is very difficult, more difficult is to make an analysis of judgment, but also can make use of these, and decisively to carry out, which already has a general of the necessary factors.
Zhu Di sized up this grandson of his with a strange look.
In the eyes of Zhu Di, although Zhu Zhanji has grown up a lot, but after all …… still treat him as a child.
Although there were times in the past when Zhu Zhanji would say some sensible words, to Zhu Di, who had experienced the world, it was still nothing more than a child who had learned some knowledge.
But now, he realized that this grandchild …… of his has far exceeded his cognition without realizing it.
So Zhu said, “How do you judge that the thieves just hung on for dear life?”
Zhu Zhanji said, “This is easy, just get to know them.”
“And how are you going to find out?”
Zhu Zhanji said, “When people see more, they understand.”
Chu: “……”
Zhu Zhanji smiled and said, “This is the so-called experience that Uncle often says. Sun Chen in the East Palace, do not even bother to consider, how others will think, what the people around …… daily thoughts.”
Zhu Zhanji said here, paused, and then said: “But in Taipingfu, no matter what duties, can not be so, because to negotiate, because to negotiate, if still empty-handed, arrogant words, even as a grandson of the emperor, may also encounter perfunctory. At this point, it is necessary to think, this matter, what is their interest gain or loss, do these, what is good for them, what are the disadvantages. How much energy can they muster, why is there pushback, and how can they be enabled to do their best!”
Zhu Zhanji said: ”Royal grandfather, don’t look at my grandson as an official in Taipingfu, but in fact, in these years, my grandson didn’t suffer a lot, didn’t encounter a lot of setbacks. This is all in the errand, their own slowly realize and figure out. For example, those thieves, what they fear, what they expect, how to take advantage of their weaknesses, to defeat them, how to seize the moment, all these kinds of things, if you do not plan in advance, how can it be possible to get things done.”
When Zhu Di heard this, his jaw actually dropped.
Zhu Zhanji’s words really surprised him.
Yet it was also a blessing to him.
At this time, even Zhu Di realized the difference between a talented person who governs the world and a dim-witted person.
Reason …… everyone understands, to be honest, throughout the dynasties, can be the emperor and the princes, which one is not the best education in the world, know the reason that others do not know?
But when you think about it, the difference among these people may be this.
Zhu seemed to have, all of a sudden, come to some sort of realization.
He looked eagerly at Zhu Zhanji, then said, “And after that?”
Zhu Zhanji said: “Sun Chen after breaking the thief, there is no point check the results of the war, but …… kill the thief seven or eight thousand, there is always! As for the other vermin, certainly has fled, but has been the wind, but a group of lost dogs, has been insufficient to worry about, the order of the various prefectures and counties can be pursued, so Sunchen afraid of the emperor to worry about, it is unauthorized to come back to the capital, naturally …… the aftermath of the matter, the Sunchen also have some arrangements and arrangements … …”
Zhu Di kept nodding his head, so elated that his almost moist eyes were about to fall into tears, almost dancing with his hands, proudly saying, “I have this grandson, it is a blessing for the society and the people of the world’s army and people!”
