Chapter 652 The Crown Prince is often ill; you should encourage him!

Lin Ke continued, "However, Judy's subsequent actions caused another contradiction in the history of Ming."

According to some historical records, the Yan army gathered at Puzikou. Sheng Yong, who had fled ahead, or Xu Huizu, fought against each other, and Sheng Yong won.

"At the critical moment, it was the Prince of Han who led his men to save the Prince of Yan and ultimately turn the tide of the battle. It is said that Zhu Di was very moved at the time and said the famous words to Zhu Gaoxu: 'The heir apparent is often ill. You should encourage him.' This made the Prince of Han extremely excited."

The sickly heir, Zhu Gaochi: "..."

In another Hongwu era, everyone looked at the Prince of Yan and thought to themselves: The Prince of Yan's heir must have had a tough time back then!

The Prince of Yan, the person in question, retorted angrily, "These are all fallacies from scholars; we never said anything like that!"

"From a geographical perspective, the Yan army marched down from Yangzhou to Puzikou, while Sheng Yong fled to Gaozigang before crossing the river northward and engaging the Yan army in a situation of initial victory followed by defeat."

"Following this, the naval force sent by the imperial court, led by Chen Xuan, failed in its attempt and instead surrendered with its men, allowing the Yan army to gain control of the warships and navy."

"However, Puzikou is west of the capital, but General Sheng Yong did not retreat to the capital. Instead, he retreated to the original Gaozi Port, which is to the east and not close at all."

"After winning so many battles, the Prince of Yan was practically at his doorstep. Instead of entering from the west, he let Li Jinglong open the gates, crossed the river north, circled around to the east, and then launched his attack. Wasn't that just asking for trouble?!"

Upon hearing this, Li Jinglong reappeared online, pledging his loyalty: "It must be some Jiangnan scholar who made it up at will. Prince Yan, just wait for me, open the city gates!"

Hearing this, and seeing his proud expression, Old Zhu couldn't stand it and kicked him again: "You think you're so great!"

Zhu Di patted Li Jinglong on the shoulder and praised him, "We have received the Duke of Cao's heart!"

Others: We can't bear to watch!

"Just listen to this part and forget about it. Zhu Di has no shortage of navy or warships right now. He's not in a hurry to surround and attack his nephew. He just wants to beat a dog when it's down and take down Sheng Yong from Gaozi Port to Zhenjiang."

"So Judy, who had no worries about the navy, set up the battle formation and made a pre-battle speech, saying that because of the treacherous ministers, in order to survive, she chose to cleanse the court of corrupt officials and secure the country."

"The Yan army was fully prepared to set off, and Sheng Yong naturally also lined up to meet the enemy. Both sides had naval warships, and a naval battle was about to break out. However, no water operations took place throughout the entire battle because there was no naval battle at all!"

In the Hongwu era, everyone was repeatedly shocked. The warships had been arranged for so long, and then you tell me there was no naval battle?!

No way, no way, Sheng Yong's only skill is running away?

"The Prince of Yan, as everyone knows, is a gambler, but at the same time, he is extremely cautious. He is about to clear the Jingnan dungeon, so there's no reason for him to get cocky at this point. Why would he play a game of naval warfare, which he's not good at, instead of using what he's best at?"

"Naval warfare is difficult to control. Many people who lost were nearly burned to the ground, and this story has been passed down to later generations. The Yan army, not counting those who surrendered, consisted mostly of northerners who were not good at naval warfare. What if they lost?"

Cao Cao: You might as well just say my name! What does the Ming Dynasty's naval warfare have to do with me?!

"So, following the usual tactic, a portion of elite cavalry again sneaked out and circled around to attack Sheng Yong's army."

"Just like that day, the imperial army collapsed as soon as they charged, without any pressure. That kid Sheng Yong used his skills again and escaped on horseback."

"Sure enough, Sheng Yong was able to put up a fight on the escape route. The remaining naval forces, seeing this, were speechless and immediately defected to the Yan army."

"The Yan army won easily. What natural defenses does the imperial court have now? What soldiers do it have? It's all because you were so reckless back then!"
