Chapter 1403 Father, you are already old(1/2)

Zhu Wen was suddenly startled and felt his heart beating violently. His prediction would not come true so soon, would it?

"Tell me, what's going on?"

He asked quickly.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Prince went out of the city to fight and sent Iron Buddha to attack the enemy. However, the enemy actually launched a weapon that can rise into the air and hit the ground... I don't know what it is."

The general said anxiously.

"What's the result?"

"What's the result?"

Zhu Wen asked anxiously.

"The result was a disastrous defeat for our army, the iron pagoda was completely destroyed, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince led his troops to evacuate..."

"The Thirty Thousand Iron Pagoda is gone?"

"It should be... gone."

Hearing these words, Zhu Wen staggered and almost fell down.

What was the most accomplished thing during his reign? It must be the creation of such a heavy cavalry, and this is also the most direct proof of Liang Wu's resurgence!

Only strong national power can support it, because the Iron Pagoda is entirely made of money!

In addition, they must have good relations with other countries. Southwest horses do not have this condition. The war horses used by Tiefutu and even other Tianxiong armies are imported from the Dayue clan in the Western Regions!

Dakang has a Zhenbei Army.

Zhu Wen will build a more powerful cavalry!

The Iron Buddha is the biggest trump card of the Liang Kingdom and serves as the ultimate weapon. Its rarity is naturally indescribable.

Now, the thirty thousand iron pagodas are gone!

This kind of loss is greater than the death of 100,000 soldiers!

Zhu Wen was swaying, but Feng Yuan quickly helped him sit on the dragon chair.

"waste!"

He couldn't help but cursed.

"Why did he give up so easily? How could he be willing to give up the Iron Buddha Tu if he was so powerful?"

"Even if we fail to fight out of the city, why bother to withdraw directly? There are still nearly 100,000 defenders in the city. It is not easy to hold on for several months."

Zhu Wen started to curse.

But he has no idea what Zhu Zhen has been through?

Even modern people cannot withstand such violent bombings, let alone people of this era?

The dimensionality reduction attack is not just talk. Zhu Zhen didn’t collapse, so it’s pretty good.

"I know!"

Zhu Wen stood up holding on to the armrest of the dragon chair.

"I know what he is afraid of!"

"He is afraid that the Crown Princess will be snatched away by Emperor Yuanwu!"

Zhu Wen immediately guessed what Zhu Zhen was thinking. This was related to his reputation and dignity. The war could be lost, but face must be saved.

As long as there is a possibility that the princess will be snatched away, he will be afraid and panic.

"waste!"

Thinking of this, Zhu Wen scolded him again.

He was also furious and didn't save any face for Zhu Zhen at this moment, so he started scolding him in public.

Many civil servants and generals were quite embarrassed to hear this. Isn't this exposing the truth?

Isn't this also the reason why His Royal Highness the Crown Prince went out of the city to fight?

The general who came to report was extremely anxious. He bit the bullet and said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has led the army to withdraw. The enemy is pursuing us from behind. Please send troops to support us."

"waste!"

Zhu Wen also has a very bad temper and has already called three pieces of trash in just a few sentences.

Don't blame him for being angry.

But he knew very well that holding on to Daze might be the last chance for Liang Jun to confront Daning and have a chance to win.

After this, I am afraid it will be very slim, how can he be willing to do so?

Qi returns to Qi, but it cannot be ignored.

"Li Chengliang!"

"The end will be here."

"You immediately lead the troops to rescue the prince. If you don't want to fight, you can successfully return to the city."

"The final general's decree!"

Li Chengliang took the order and left in a hurry.

Ba Cheng sent troops to respond. This was not necessary, and Zhu Zhen did not want to look embarrassed.

But the Northern Army of Daning Town came after them.

All those evacuating on our side are infantry. How can we compare with the cavalry no matter how hasty the march is?

Zhu Zhenke is well aware of the abomination of the Zhenbei Army. Although there are not many troops, they will not fight you head-on. They will only hang at the back and harass you from time to time, making you tired of dealing with the loss of troops and generals.

This is shamelessness taken to the extreme!

Zhenbei Army is good at this kind of tactics. Liang Jun has suffered countless losses?

Zhu Zhen didn't know how to respond, but he didn't want to lose his troops, so he could only slow down his march, increase his vigilance, and ask Ba City to send troops to respond.

After more than ten days of tossing along the way, the army finally returned to Ba City. Although it didn't take long, it still suffered a lot.

The soldiers were all haggard and depressed, and it was obvious at a glance that they were a defeated army.

All the generals left behind in Ba City came out of the city to greet him, but Zhu Wen did not show up.

"How is your Majesty feeling?"

No one else spoke, silence is an attitude.

Zhu Zhen understood in his heart.

He has many cronies in Ba City, and His Majesty's scolding words have already reached his ears.

"Get the soldiers settled and give them a full meal."

"Your Highness, don't worry."

"Fan Cang, Zong Wuji, Liu Huai... you will come with me to see His Majesty."

Zhu Zhen named a few people.

Their role is to explain the situation at that time, not to curse people without understanding anything.

Zhu Wen was not an extravagant monarch, he lived in a military mansion.

After Zhu Zhen and others arrived, they had to be notified, and they could not meet in person until they agreed.

But I didn’t expect that I had to wait for an hour!

Zhu Zhen looked ugly.

He knew that his father did this on purpose, just to make him look bad and embarrass him.

"Prince Xuan has an audience!"

Just when Zhu Zhen was impatient, he finally got the answer.

When he brought people in, there were many civil servants and generals in the military mansion. They had been discussing military affairs here before, but they did not let him, the prince, in. What did this mean?

Zhu Zhen looked calm on the surface, but there was a coldness in his heart.

"My son, I bow to my father."

"How is your Majesty's holy bow?"

"Is the holy bow okay?"

Zhu Wen said directly: "How can I be safe?"

"I ask you, why did you leave the city without authorization to fight, and why did you evacuate without authorization and abandon the defense of the city?"

There was a lot of questioning when I came up.

Zhu Wen became even more angry. He had learned the truth. During the evacuation, most of the food and grass had not been taken away in time, and he finally set it on fire.

How big should this loss be?
To be continued...
