Chapter 889 Zhu Di’s cruelty! Let’s start the war!
"Everyone," Zhu Han's voice sounded again, his tone full of determination and confidence, "Our trip is not only to expose Zhu Di's crimes, but also for the peace and stability of the Ming Dynasty. Let us work together to overcome the difficulties.
Contribute our strength to the Ming Dynasty!"
The generals responded in unison and their morale was high. Zhu Han looked at them and felt a warm current in his heart.
At this moment, a scout hurried into the camp and reported nervously: "Your Majesty, there is an urgent military situation! The enemy seems to have made some changes and is gathering troops, with unknown intentions."
Zhu Han frowned slightly when he heard this, but he quickly regained his composure. He turned around and said to the generals: "It seems that Zhu Di can't hold himself back any longer. However, this is exactly the result we want. General Zhang, please lead the investigation team immediately
, closely monitor the enemy's movements and report immediately if there is any situation."
General Zhang took the order and left, while Zhu Han continued to deploy defense work.
At the same time, in Zhu Di's mansion, the old counselor was reporting to him the latest situation on the border. After hearing this, Zhu Di raised a sneer at the corner of his mouth: "King Han, King Han, you have indeed come to the border. But this is not you.
A place that is easily controllable.”
He turned around and said to the young counselor beside him: "Send the order and ask the generals on the border to increase their offensive. We must let King Han know how powerful we are. But remember, don't hurt his life. I want him to live to see you."
How it led to failure step by step."
Zhu Han was intensively deploying defensive strategies with his generals in the military camp on the border. At the same time, a conspiracy against Zhu Han was quietly brewing in Zhu Di's mansion.
Zhu Di was sitting in the study, playing with an exquisite jade ring in his hand, with a calculating light in his eyes. He looked at the old counselor beside him and said in a deep voice: "How is the situation over there on the border? Has King Han noticed it?
To what?"
The old counselor bowed and replied: "Back to Your Highness, according to the news from the border, King Han and his party have stepped up their vigilance, but it seems that they have not yet fully seen through our layout. However, the scouts he sent out are active, and we need to be more cautious in our actions."
.”
Zhu Di nodded slightly, with a sneer at the corner of his mouth: "King Han is indeed not simple, but this time, I will make sure he never comes back. Send the order, let the generals on the border add another fire, no need to hide their strength, directly
Launch an attack, but remember to capture King Han alive, I will personally interrogate him."
When the old counselor heard this, a trace of worry flashed in his eyes: "Your Highness, capturing King Han alive is extremely risky. If we fail, I'm afraid it will anger His Majesty and be detrimental to us."
Zhu Di waved his hand with a firm look in his eyes: "Risks and opportunities coexist, and I have my own sense of proportion. You just need to act according to my orders."
The old counselor had no choice but to accept the order and leave. Calmness returned to the study room again, but Zhu Di knew that under the calm there was an undercurrent and a storm was coming.
In the military camp on the border, Zhu Han was discussing countermeasures with the generals. A scout hurried into the camp and reported nervously: "Your Majesty, the enemy suddenly launched a fierce attack, and our defense line is in a hurry!"
Zhu Han frowned, stood up quickly, and said in a deep voice: "Send the order, the entire army will enter combat mode, and must stick to the defense line and wait for reinforcements to arrive."
The generals took the order and left, and the military camp suddenly became busy. Zhu Han stood on a high place, looking at the smoke-filled battlefield in the distance, secretly thinking about how to deal with this sudden crisis.
At this moment, a guard hurriedly ran over and reported breathlessly: "Your Majesty, there is an urgent report from the capital. Your Majesty has learned that the border war is urgent and has ordered the dispatch of a large army for reinforcements."
Zhu Han felt relieved after hearing this. He looked at the generals beside him and said in a deep voice: "Reinforcements are coming, we must hold on until the last moment. Send the order to let the soldiers know that their families are in the capital looking forward to their triumphant return."
And return."
The generals responded in unison, and their morale was greatly boosted. Zhu Han knew that this battle was not only a test of their military capabilities, but also a test of their will and belief.
At the same time, in Zhu Di's mansion, the old counselor hurried over and reported solemnly: "Your Highness, there is news from the border. King Han has learned that reinforcements are coming and is defending with all his strength."
Zhu Di sneered, with a flash of sternness in his eyes: "Humph, so what if we defend to the death? Send an order to the border, so that the generals do not have to hold back, and must push King Han into a desperate situation before reinforcements arrive."
When the old counselor heard this, he frowned and said worriedly: "Your Highness, is this move too risky? If King Han is really forced into a desperate situation, it may arouse His Majesty's anger and be detrimental to us."
Zhu Di sneered, and a flash of determination flashed in his eyes: "Old counselor, when did you become so hesitant? Those who achieve great things do not stick to trivial matters. If King Han is really capable, he will be able to escape from this desperate situation. What's more, I am sure that he will be completely
Before despair, let him see my methods."
The young counselor echoed from the side: "What your Highness said is absolutely true. Although King Han is brave, he can't beat four hands with two fists. If the border generals can work hard, they will definitely be able to force him into a corner. At that time, Your Highness will use the name of reinforcements.
A timely 'rescue' can not only demonstrate His Highness's benevolence, but also make King Han feel grateful to His Highness. Wouldn't it kill two birds with one stone?"
When the old counselor heard this, although he still had concerns, he had to admit that what the two young counselors said was reasonable. He had no choice but to nod: "In that case, the veteran will go to the border areas to send orders to the border areas, asking them to be careful and not to let King Han notice.
Get a clue."
Zhu Di nodded with satisfaction, waved the old counselor to retreat, and then turned to the young counselor: "You should start preparations immediately. Once good news comes from the border, we will launch an offensive in the court and completely destroy King Han's foundation in the court."
The young counselor bowed to accept the order and was about to retreat, but he seemed to remember something and turned around and said: "Your Highness, those noble people in the court and the courtiers who are loyal to the prince are eyeing us and we must be on guard."
Zhu Di smiled slightly, with a cunning light in his eyes: "I have my own thoughts on this matter. You only need to act according to the plan, and I will make arrangements for the rest."

He stood alone in front of the window, staring into the distance, secretly planning the next step in his heart
every move.
At the same time, in the military camp on the border, Zhu Han and the generals were nervously deploying defensive strategies. A scout hurried into the camp and reported nervously: "Your Majesty, the enemy's offensive is becoming more and more fierce, and our defense lines have reached many places.
Urgent!"
Zhu Han frowned and said in a deep voice: "Send the order and tell the soldiers to stick to their positions. Reinforcements will arrive soon. At the same time, General Zhang is ordered to personally lead a team of elite troops to bypass the enemy's rear and cut off their supply lines. They must give me
Buy time!"
The generals took the order and left, and the military camp suddenly became busy. Zhu Han stood on a high place, looking at the smoke-filled battlefield in the distance, secretly praying that reinforcements would arrive as soon as possible.
At this moment, a guard hurriedly ran over and reported breathlessly: "Your Majesty, there is news from the capital. Your Majesty has ordered the deployment of a large army for reinforcements. It is expected to arrive within three days!"
When Zhu Han heard this, he felt calm in his heart and showed an imperceptible smile on his face.
"Send the order," Zhu Han said in a deep voice, "Let the soldiers know the news of the approaching reinforcements. They must boost their morale and hold on until the last moment!"
The personal guards took the order and left. Zhu Han's eyes swept across the busy soldiers in the camp, and he felt a surge of pride and ambition in his heart.
"Your Majesty," at this time, a staff member who looked like a middle-aged scribe hurriedly walked into the camp, with a bit of worry in his expression, "The situation on the border is becoming increasingly tense, and we must be fully prepared."
Zhu Han turned to look at him and nodded: "What Mr. Li said is absolutely true. The enemy's offensive is fierce, but our will must be firmer. Pass on the order and strengthen night patrols to prevent enemy night attacks."
Mr. Li bowed in response, and then said: "Your Majesty, I am still worried about the situation in the DPRK. Zhu Di has huge power in the DPRK, and there is no guarantee that he will not take the opportunity to cause trouble in the capital to contain our troops."
Zhu Han frowned slightly, thought for a moment and then said: "Mr. Li is right to remind you that things in the DPRK do need to be paid attention to. You should immediately write a letter and send it back to the capital as quickly as possible, so that Zhao Shenjun can strengthen intelligence collection and ensure the stability of the capital.
"
Mr. Li took the order and retreated, while Zhu Han continued to stand in front of the camp, staring at the battlefield in the distance.
At this moment, a scout hurriedly entered the camp, knelt down on one knee and reported: "Your Majesty, there is a strange movement in the enemy's rear, and there seems to be signs of large-scale troop mobilization."
When Zhu Han heard this, a glint flashed in his eyes: "What a good Zhu Di, he is indeed cunning. He wants to cut off our supply line and force us to retreat."
He turned around and said to the generals beside him: "General Zhang, you immediately lead your elite cavalry to detour behind the enemy's rear. You must find out their troop deployment and look for opportunities to destroy their supply lines. Remember, you must be careful and don't be too eager to fight."
General Zhang took the order and left, while Zhu Han continued to deploy other defensive measures.
At the same time, in the capital, Zhao Canjun was anxiously waiting for news from the border. Suddenly, a messenger hurried in with an urgent and secret letter in his hand.
Zhao Shenjun received the secret letter, quickly opened it and read it, his face became solemn. He immediately summoned several close aides to discuss countermeasures.
"Everyone, the war on the border is tense, and Zhu Di is ready to make a move in the court. We must strengthen intelligence collection to ensure the stability of the capital." Zhao Shenjun said solemnly.
A staff member said worriedly: "Sir, Zhu Di has great power in the court. How can we ensure the accuracy of the intelligence?"
A trace of determination flashed in Zhao Shenjun's eyes: "We must be more cautious. Immediately send more scouts to sneak into Zhu Di's sphere of influence to collect intelligence. At the same time, strengthen contact with other courtiers to ensure unimpeded information flow."
All the staff took the order and left one after another, while Zhao Shenjun stayed alone in the study, secretly thinking about how to better support the war on the border.
In Zhu Di's mansion, he was also anxiously waiting for news from the border. A confidant hurriedly walked into the study and reported nervously: "Your Highness, there is news from the border that King Han's reinforcements are about to arrive. Our army
The offensive is blocked."
When Zhu Di heard this, he frowned. Once he failed, it would be a huge blow to him.
"Send the order," he said solemnly, "so that the generals on the border do not have to hold back and must give King Han a fatal blow before the reinforcements arrive. At the same time, strengthen the defense of the capital to prevent King Han from sending troops for a sneak attack."
The confidant and counselor followed the order and left. Zhu Di stood alone in front of the study window, staring at the sparse stars in the night sky, with mixed feelings in his heart.
Soon, a gentle knock on the door came from outside the study, interrupting Zhu Di's contemplation. He came back to his senses and said in a deep voice: "Come in."
The door slowly opened, and the young counselor who was responsible for liaising with the courtiers came in. He looked slightly anxious, walked quickly to Zhu Di, bowed and saluted, and said eagerly: "Your Highness, there is news from the court that the Qingliu people and
The courtiers who are loyal to the Crown Prince are gathering in secret to discuss how to further support His Highness King Han, and the situation is quite unfavorable to us."
Zhu Di frowned, and a coldness flashed in his eyes: "These noble people usually pride themselves on being noble, but at critical moments they become Zhu Han's help. Send the order, strengthen surveillance on them, and be sure to find their meeting place."
and time, but remember not to alert the enemy.”
The young counselor nodded in agreement and was about to retreat when Zhu Di added: "Also, we must use their influence in the court to create some rumors that are not good for them and make them busy. Remember, rumors must be cleverly designed.
, making it difficult to distinguish between true and false.”
A hint of cunning flashed in the young counselor's eyes, and he bowed and said: "Your Highness, don't worry, I will act with caution, and let the pure people mess up their positions."
After the young counselor left, Zhu Di looked out the window again, thinking about the next move. At this time, the old counselor slowly walked into the study, with a bit of solemnity on his face.
"Your Highness, the situation on the border is becoming increasingly tense. Although our army is attacking with all its strength, King Han's defense line is impregnable and reinforcements are about to arrive. I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to achieve a breakthrough in a short time." The voice of the old counselor was low and powerful.
Zhu Di turned around and looked at the old counselor with a deep look: "What the old counselor said is true, but we can't give up just now. He ordered the border generals not to attack by force, but to adopt the strategy of siege without attacking, which would consume King Han's food and grass and
Strengthen our troops, and at the same time strengthen intelligence collection, we must find the weakness of King Han."
The old counselor nodded, with a flash of admiration in his eyes: "Your Highness is wise, I will make arrangements immediately. However, we still need to be prepared for King Han's counterattack in the court, especially he may use the power of Qingliu people to launch public opinion attacks on Your Highness."
Zhu Di sneered: "Public opinion attack? Humph, those noble people are just a group of scholars who talk nonsense and harm the country. There is nothing to be afraid of. As long as we hold real power in our hands, what can they do to me? However, you are right to remind us, we can also
We cannot take it lightly. Strengthen the construction of the intelligence network, be sure to keep track of their movements, and act immediately if there is any sign of trouble."
The old counselor took the order and left, and calm returned to the study room again. Zhu Di stood alone in front of the window, but his heart was as if the river was turning upside down.
At the same time, in the military camp on the border, Zhu Han was also discussing countermeasures with the generals. A scout hurriedly entered the camp, knelt down on one knee and reported: "Your Majesty, our scouts discovered a secret granary behind the enemy's rear.
, it is heavily guarded, but if it can be destroyed, the enemy army will collapse without a fight."
