A middle-aged man was taken away, his face was dark except for his eyes, and his armor was in tatters.
But he was fine. Lin Jianhuo was tied up like a rice dumpling.
"Hey, what's going on? General Lin is a guest from afar, how can he be so rude and still not let go!"
Wang Zhonghou quickly went to untie the opponent's rope. Lin Jianhuo looked at Zhu Youde and moved his feet. Wang Zhonghou blocked Lin Jianhuo's way.
"His Majesty, General Lin, treats you so favorably, not to let you have other ideas!"
"..."
Zhu Youde smiled and said: "Old Wang, step back and get a chair for the general!"
As soon as there was a chair, Lin Jianhuo sat down. He was middle-aged and tall. He looked very embarrassed now, but he was full of momentum.
"Your Majesty, if you want to kill, just kill, why bother talking nonsense!"
Zhu Youde smiled and said: "Am I so bloodthirsty? I always thought that I was a scholar!"
Wang Zhonghou quickly smiled and said: "Your Majesty is extremely elegant!"
Lin Man also nodded, and whatever the emperor said was whatever he said.
Lin Jianhuo looked at Zhu Youde in confusion, with great disdain on his resolute face. "I failed to attack the capital in a sneak attack and was captured. Please give me death!"
Zhu Youde shook his head: "The general's courage in attacking the capital is commendable. I admire him. There is no need to seek death. I have long heard of the general's reputation. He is good at fighting and brave in battle. He is really a good general. It is easy to get a lot of gold, but hard to find a general. Daliang is the one
When employing people, the general can give more thought to them."
"Old King"
"My slave is here!" Wang Zhonghou said quickly.
Zhu Youde took off the jade pendant from his waist and handed it to Wang Zhonghou: "Give it to the general. The jasper is flawless to commend the general's character. I heard that in ancient times there was a gift to persuade surrender, and a jade biscuit should be used as a matchmaker. I don't have a jade bi today, so I will use the one I carry with me."
Jade pendant, the general is willing to surrender!"
Lin Jianhuo looked at the jade pendant in his hand and looked at Zhu Youde speechlessly.
He was attacked by a sneak attack. Zhu Youde was indeed shameless and bombarded him with artillery along the way, but now he surrendered himself according to ancient etiquette!
This was the emperor's personal persuasion to surrender. The standards were so high that he had to be moved.
"I am grateful to your Majesty for your kindness, but I am from the Tang Dynasty and have sworn to serve the king. I am a loyal minister who will not serve the two masters. Please forgive me!"
"Well, it's me who has no virtue!" Zhu Youde's eyes turned red when he was moved, "It doesn't matter, my lack of virtue is not enough to convince the general. It's my fault. Old Wang, prepare some silver coins and give them to the general, and order the soldiers and civilians along the way.
Don’t embarrass General Lin and let him return to the Tang Dynasty smoothly!"
Lin Jianhuo quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed fiercely!
Wang Zhonghou took a bag of silver and put it in the other person's hand. Lin Man wanted to speak, but immediately saw Zhu Youde's dagger-like eyes.
He was so frightened that he quickly backed away!
If you dare to ruin my affairs, I will punish you to death later.
Lin Jianhuo took the silver and stood up from the ground, looked at Zhu Youde as if he wanted to remember him, then sighed deeply, turned around and left.
"Your Majesty really let him go!"
"Am I someone who breaks my word?" Zhu Youde laughed.
Lin Man said: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid the tiger will return to the mountain!"
"You know nothing!" Zhu Youde said.
After seeing Wang Zhonghou, he also looked at himself and thought for a while and said: "Can I let him go, what about those people in the Southern Tang Dynasty? Five thousand cavalry died under real artillery. The Southern Tang Dynasty's sneak attack on the capital was so secretive, Monk Xiao would not
No matter how much you think about it, even if he believes it, the courtiers of the Southern Tang Dynasty, if five thousand cavalry were killed, someone always needs to be responsible for this!"
"Monk Xiao is the commander-in-chief of the Navy of the Southern Tang Dynasty, guarding Xiangyang. The Southern Tang Dynasty court will not embarrass him, but a deputy general..."
Zhu Youde didn't need to say anything anymore, Wang Zhonghou and Lin Man understood that the court of the Southern Tang Dynasty would definitely take action against Lin Jianhuo.
"When fighting a war, don't look at the immediate outcome, but look at the long term. After the battlefield is the temple. Lin Man remembers it!"
"Yes, I will keep your Majesty's teachings in mind!"
"You performed well this time, go back and lead the imperial army!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
After saying that, Zhu Youde looked at Lin Man and waved. Lin Man came over quickly. Zhu Youde whispered: "I already knew about the erotic pictures. Please check for me, which bastards in the Royal Forest Army are secretly smearing me?" , I found out that one person and one hundred military sticks will teach me a lesson!"
"I must find those people and teach them a lesson!"
"Whoever asked you to teach you a lesson, just give me a hundred military sticks, and then take back those erotic pictures from me. The erotic pictures are the key!"
"..."
Looking at Lin Man who was speechless, Zhu Youde patted him on the shoulder and said, "You are young, you are young after all."
Isn’t it surprising? Isn’t it surprising?
Those erotic pictures leaked out by the Royal Forest Army were sold for thousands of taels in the Qinhuai River. Although it was only because of his name that they could be sold at such high prices, Zhu Youde was very unhappy.
He has never seen the real thing.
Didn't I say it was drawn according to his posture? I haven't seen it before. This is intolerable!
Wang Zhonghou has become accustomed to Zhu Youde's amazing speaking skills. This is very emperor!
The emperor has always had this style!
Apart from that, I have no other hobbies.
Lin Man feels very hurt. I am full of passion and want to sacrifice my life for you, but this is the result?
My loyalty is not as important as a few erotic pictures.
I'm so upset.
Zhu Youde didn't care at that time. He was the emperor. After the whole army was stationed, Zhu Youde went to rest.
The next day, the army continued to move toward the capital in secret. If they met some bandits along the way, they would kill them immediately.
Three days later, Zhu Youde's army had arrived and lurked in the suburbs of the capital.
Zhu Youde immediately asked Lin Man to lead 500 people to replace the defenders at the south gate of the capital.
"Your Majesty's southern garrison and five hundred soldiers have been replaced!"
In Dulin Village outside the capital city, Wang Zhonghou and Zhu Youde reported.
"Then just lurk."
Zhu Youde did not enter the city immediately. The capital seemed very calm. He decided to wait and see. One of the city gates was already in his hands. It was enough.
"Is there any movement in the city?"
Wang Zhonghou shook his head: "As usual, Your Majesty, will the thief know that Your Majesty is back?"
"How can it be!"
Zhu Youde thought for a moment and suddenly laughed: "In this way, tomorrow night you will lead five thousand troops to attack the city outside the city!"
"ah!"
"Ah, what? I forgot about Lin Jianhuo's five thousand cavalry. The people in the city must be waiting for those soldiers and horses to come to attack the city before they take action. How dare people in the city take action if they don't come!" Zhu Youde laughed.
After thinking about it for a while, I felt that it was right, and this should be the reason.
Thinking of the five thousand Southern Tang cavalry, Zhu Youde thought of Monk Xiao. It was a pity that this guy ran away.
He also wanted to meet this monk.
After the arrangements were made, Zhu Youde went out for a while to experience the sufferings of the people. However, he saw that the local villagers knew that they were the imperial army, and every household had cooked meat.
What a shitty experience, there are some soldiers whose hometown is here, the army is stationed here, and the local soldiers have gone home to eat.
