Rise From the Humble - Chapter 1826 confrontation in front of the city

  Chapter 1826 Confrontation in front of the city

In the howling cold wind, the forward cavalry of the Zhejiang Army appeared more than a mile away from the east gate of Suzhou City. After approaching the city gate, the forward cavalry of the Zhejiang Army pulled the reins of the horse, slowly reduced the horse's speed, and then spread out left and right. Surrounded by Liu Dadao and others, Zhu Pingan, who was in the second echelon, rode his horse forward more and more.

  When there were still 200 meters away from the city gate of Suzhou, Zhu Ping'an raised his right fist high, and the Zhejiang army behind him all restrained their mounts.

   This is why Zhu Pingan came from modern times. Influenced by the military parade of flower growers, in addition to strict military discipline, he also has strict requirements on formation.

  In terms of military discipline and military formation alone, the Zhejiang Army under the leadership of Zhu Ping'an has already left behind the other armies of the Ming Dynasty by a large margin.

  At the city gate of Suzhou, Shang Zhifu and a group of officials and soldiers saw the scene where the Zhe army stopped under Zhu Ping'an's hand, and they were all stunned.

   "Ordinances and prohibitions, the posture of a strong army! Among other things, Mr. Zhu is still good at training soldiers, and the Zhejiang Army can be called a strong army."

   "That's right, the Zhejiang Army has a well-organized formation, which is beyond the reach of ordinary troops."

  A few officials were shocked by the neat formation and discipline of the Zhejiang Army, and couldn't help saying a few words with emotion.

   "What's the use of just having a well-organized army formation? It's not about being orderly in war. Don't let the silver-shaped pewter heads look good."

   "Master Zhu puts more emphasis on firearms than weapons. If he relies too much on firearms, he will suffer a lot in field battles."

   After hearing this, a few generals murmured in dissatisfaction.

First, they were really dissatisfied. Just now those officials said that the Zhejiang Army was beyond the reach of ordinary troops, and they were despised invisibly; second, they were dissatisfied because of General Wang. According to reports, he called General Wang to vote for the Japanese, and slapped their chief general in the face, making them dissatisfied.

  Shang Zhifu looked at Zhu Pingan and the Zhejiang Army outside the city with a complicated expression. To be honest, he really admired Zhu Pingan.

  A young man from a poor family, the number one scholar in high school, offended Mr. Yan Ge, and was relegated to the magistrate of a small county in Jingnan, which was in danger.

  This is not something ordinary people can do.

  In addition, Zhu Pingan won the first prize in Wenke, and Wu also made military exploits many times. If nothing else, let's talk about the battle before the Fengqiao camp a few days ago. At least thousands of Japanese pirates were awarded the first prize, which is enough for Zhu Pingan to be promoted again.

However, although Zhu Ping'an is far ahead of himself in the way of martial arts, after all, he is a monk halfway, young, and lacks experience. The imperial guards or the frontier army and the armies of the Davids, and even the Japanese pirates across the south of the Yangtze River, did not rely so much on firearms, and the proportion of firearms was at most 30 to 40%.

  However, Zhu Ping'an not only relies heavily on firearms, but also is very stubborn, unable to listen to persuasion.

   This aspect makes Shang Zhifu not so relieved.

   Today, General Wang attacked at the east gate, and Zhu Pingan, who was ten miles away, decided that General Wang had thrown himself into the Japanese.

  Although the intention of the Japanese pirates to lure the enemy out of the city is very clear, I have also reminded General Wang many times that General Wang would have to raise his house before he dared to go out of the city to pursue them. Couldn’t the Japanese pirates be allowed to steal chickens without losing money and return in triumph? !

  Furthermore, the Zhejiang army shouted with great fanfare, "General Wang has surrendered to the enemy, and the Japanese pirates entered the city at the east gate", which could easily arouse antagonism and confrontation. If it is not handled properly, it may even lead to mutiny and mutiny.

  When the Japanese pirates approached the city, the defenders mutinied and mutinied. What does this mean? !

  Zhu Ping'an is still immature and lacks experience.

Of course, the main reason is that Zhu Ping'an is still young, and he is not yet at the age of a weak crown. Of course, he lacks experience. I believe that in time, when he has more experience and experience, he will surely soar into the sky, and he will definitely have a place in the court. There is also a great possibility.

   It's just that it's still a little immature now.

  Shang Zhifu looked at Zhu Pingan who was surrounded by the Zhejiang army outside the city, and various thoughts came to his mind.

"This Zhu man is really difficult to get along with. Not only is he good at using firearms, but he is also good at leading and training soldiers. How can his soldiers and horses be so forbidden?! It seems that the Zhejiang Army has only recruited soldiers for a few months?! "

  Outside the city gate, Xu Hai watched the Zhe army stop neatly two hundred meters away, and he added a little more caution to Zhu Ping'an in his heart!

  Under the watchful eyes of Shang Zhifu and others, Zhu Ping got off his horse and walked forward slowly under the protection of Liu Mu and others.

   Zhu Pingan felt a little relieved that there were more than a thousand disguised Japanese pirates outside the city who were banned from entering the city, but when he saw the city gate that was still open, Zhu Pingan couldn't help sighing in his heart and shook his head slightly.

  My voice is hoarse

  "Master Shang" Zhu Ping'an hoarsely, saluted Shangzhi's mansion on the city wall from afar.

"Lord Zhu, you are safe and sound. You have to confirm with Master Zhu about General Wang's surrender to the Japanese that Master Zhu called out." Shang Zhifu saluted on the city wall, and was about to ask General Zhu Pingan about the surrender of the Japanese. He heard a commotion at the city gate, and then saw General Wang leaving the city angrily.

   "Zhu Ping'an, Master Zhu, you and I have no grudges in the past, and no enmity in recent days. Why are you spitting blood and framing me! Said that I surrendered to the Japanese pirates, and said that the soldiers who followed me in triumph were Japanese pirates. What is your intention, Master Zhu?!"

  General Wang walked out of the city gate angrily, stood in front of the crowd of fake Japanese pirates, pointed at Zhu Pingan from a distance, and asked through gritted teeth.

   "That is, I followed the general from birth to death, chased the Japanese pirates, suffered many injuries, and finally won the victory. Master Zhu turned black and white with a blank sentence, calling us Japanese pirates?! Why did you treat us like this?!"

   "My family has been loyal for generations, Master Zhu actually said that we are Japanese pirates, which made my ancestors and ancestors restless. If Master Zhu doesn't give us an explanation, today I will crash to death on this city wall and wash my innocence with blood."

   A group of fake pirates also clamored loudly, each of them behaved like Dou E who had suffered an injustice.

"General Wang, no, you are no longer worthy to be called a general. If you surrender to the Japanese pirates and cooperate with the Japanese pirates to swindle Suzhou City, you are making enemies of hundreds of thousands of Li people in Suzhou City, the Holy Lord, and Ming Dynasty! My shoulders It is the responsibility to protect Suzhou, the responsibility and obligation to expose the conspiracy of you and Japanese pirates! Keep Suzhou City safe!"

  Zhu Ping'an spoke hoarsely, looking at the stern General Wang with burning eyes, and said loudly.

"Fart! What nonsense! It's all yours!" General Wang cursed, gnashing his teeth and said, "The truth of the matter is clearly that you are jealous of my achievements in destroying the Japanese, lest my achievements will overwhelm you, in order to keep your first and first achievements. , Unscrupulous, deliberately slander and frame me for voting!"

   "Oh, you are not worthy." Zhu Pingan looked at General Wang contemptuously, twitched the corners of his mouth, and sneered.
