Zhu Gaoxu was not stupid, he was just too lazy to think, so he looked really stupid.

Do you know what Zhu Gaoxu did when he was summoned by Zhu Yuanzhang to study in Yingtian?

Zhu Gaoxu had to fight with people every day, and the reason for the fight was that a group of royal children loved to bully Zhu Gaochi, the little fat man.

To be honest, Zhu Gaoxu really doesn't like Zhu Gaochi, the eldest brother, and it has nothing to do with the position of prince. He simply thinks that this eldest brother is too cowardly, and he also looks at some things. The two brothers have too different views on some points of view.

However, even though Zhu Gaoxu didn't like Zhu Gaochi, he still couldn't stand others bullying his elder brother. He had a lot of fights with royal relatives on the spot, and there were even more private appointments outside the classroom.

Their younger brother, Zhu Gaosui, plays a sinister and cunning role. He is a rude person to complain, and he is also very good at making perjury.

The three brothers gradually became the leader among Yingtian and his royal children. However, later Zhu Yunwen became the crown prince, which changed the situation of the three brothers.

Later, Zhu Yuanzhang appointed Zhu Gaochi as the prince of the Yan King, and Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui returned to Peiping.

"You look like me." Zhu Di didn't know what he thought of, so he said something suddenly.

Zhu Gaoxu was stunned for a moment, grinned and said, "I am my father's son, I don't look like anyone else."

Zhu Di raised his beard and his mouth also curled up. Overall, he looked in a good mood.

This time, the father and son, one of the speakers was unintentional, and the listeners didn't think much about it.

Zhu Neng, who was nearby, stared at Zhu Gaoxu thoughtfully and kept looking at him, thinking to himself: "Yes, the second young master looks like the prince in all aspects. As for the prince... from his figure to his personality, he doesn't look like the prince at all."

At this time, the generals and schools among the court who were blocked outside the city gate were discussed and selected the candidates to meet Zhu Di, expressing their willingness to surrender.

"I won't drive you to attack the city, and I won't disrupt your organization. I will work hard under my command in the future. You will understand the rewards for merit, punishments, military rules, and principles. Don't I need to say more, right?" Zhu Di said.

The people elected by the surrendered army did not need to turn around and attack the city immediately after hearing this. They could retain their organization and then listen to the principles of rewards and punishments, and their mentality immediately stabilized.

He asked, "Prince, that..." He was talking about Lu Yang. He wanted to say that the methods were too shady, but he paused and changed to a wry smile and said, "The methods are really powerful."

Zhu Di was not angry and said, "You haven't seen any more powerful methods."

From an evaluation perspective, Zhu Di felt that at least in terms of logistics scheduling, Lu Yang would compete with famous officials of ancient times.

If Zhu Di was comforted and made various promises, the representatives of the surrendered army would not believe anything.

In addition, Zhu Di would scold and joke, which made the representatives of the surrendered army truly feel at ease.

After all, literati may not know what kind of person Zhu Di is; unless the news of the military is too closed, how could he have never heard of Zhu Di as a prince with a martial spirit?

To be honest, the soldiers of the court were neither good nor bad about Zhu Di's senses, and were simply obeying orders to go north to fight.

What do the military think about Zhu Yunwen and his ministers' repeated mischiefs? They just because of the relationship between the monarch and the ministers. Not to mention what they like, there is no mutiny in various places, which is considered that Yu Ze left by Zhu Yuanzhang to protect Zhu Yunwen.

Zhu Di then ordered a retreat, and the army stationed ten miles away from Zhending City.

Confirmed that the Yan army had withdrawn ten miles away, Geng Bingwen asked the bodies of soldiers who killed each other and trampled on each other, and after he ordered the matter, he told everyone not to disturb him, but he was writing a letter of guilt.

"As I expected, the court will punish me. I wonder who will replace the commander of the army?" Geng Bingwen knew that he was finished. Whether he could be exempted from the crime depends on whether the court would win or lose the battle against the Yan army in the next battle.

The emperor is a Confucian believer, right?

All the important positions in the court were held by great scholars, right?

Can you expect them to judge the situation correctly? If you have a sip of wine and food, you will not be drunk like that. You must not expect Confucian believers to understand military affairs!

Telling something that may be cruel, but it is definitely not a fabrication. Wen Tianxiang's sentiment at the end of the Song Dynasty was extremely great, and his military literacy was unimaginable. If he could understand some military affairs, even if it was just some military common sense, so many people would respond after the call to resist the Yuan Dynasty, even if he could not turn the world around, he would not have been sent to the death again and again, right?

Confucian classics are absolutely top-notch in philosophy. There is no book that can be used to teach people how to understand military affairs. So any Confucian person who understands military affairs must be a spy hidden in Confucianism by hundreds of schools of thought, or they would be "false"!

Considering that after the Confucianism was solemn, many schools of thought needed to survive by wearing "Confucian skin", and later Confucianism was also absorbing the knowledge of hundreds of schools to enrich itself, how could it be completely ruled out that there is a "spy" in Confucianism?

Therefore, Geng Bingwen thought about it and knew his possible outcome. The emperor and ministers did not understand military affairs. The new commander could win. The things he lost would be turned into big things and small things; once the commander was defeated, he would inevitably be impeached and attacked like a storm. At that time, he would still commit suicide early, so as not to drag down his family.

Geng Bingwen was not willing to be defeated in this battle. He felt that if he set up defenses in Hejian Prefecture and relied on layers of resistance to consume the spirit of the Yan army. If he could slowly drag down the Yan army, victory would definitely belong to the imperial army. How could he have thought that the emperor who did not understand that he had absolute advantages would have the kind of decree that would be beneficial to the enemy.

While Geng Bingwen was sighing, Yan Jun was holding a meeting to discuss what to do next.

"Although this battle was successful, Jianwen was in frequent chaos. After this defeat, Jianwen learned a lesson and became cautious?" Zhu Di liked to express his ideas at the meeting and see if anyone could add it.

Zhang Yu said: "Even if the court is newly defeated, the monarch and ministers will be shocked. Even if hundreds of thousands of troops head north, the Southern Army has not fought for many years, and there will be any acts of the court's chaos in politics, even famous generals cannot command it. Our army can take advantage of the victory and seize Baoding first, and gain this advantage."

Everyone understood that Zhang Yu meant to continue to take the offensive while he was winning a new victory, and he could capture Baoding, becoming the Yan army with a geographical advantage, and could attack and retreat or defend.

Seeing Zhu Di's eyes turned over, Lu Yang knew that he was going to say something again, so he said, "Prince, everyone, there are still tens of thousands of enemy troops in Zhending City, and the general of the enthronement is there. Will the court allow the army to be destroyed?"

Is that needless to say? The group of troops brought by Geng Bingwen is known as 300,000, but there is actually about 150,000. It is still the "Beijing Army" that protects Yingtian. How could the court give up casually?

Zhu Di said: "It is difficult for our army to attack the city."

"It's not a siege." Lu Yang knew that siege would be stupid, especially when reinforcements from the court would come over at any time. He glanced at everyone, wondering why no one had ever thought about surrounding the points to attack the points, so he told the suggestion of surrounding the points to attack the points.
