Chapter 647 Judy: Ancestor, we're here!
On the screen at this moment, Zhu Di's ever-changing face is reflected. His descendants reveal his future and his ending, which serves as both a reminder and a warning.
Upon hearing this, the generals who were about to fight at the Baigou River looked worried and said one after another, "Now that the younger generation has explained it in detail, the court will probably have to re-examine its strategy. Your Highness, this is not good for us!"
Zhang Yu said in a deep voice, "With Your Highness here, since we were able to defeat them once, even if the court finds out in advance, we can defeat them a second time!"
Zhu Neng chimed in, "That's right! Everyone's playing their cards openly, so what's there to be afraid of? We'll attack wherever His Highness points!"
Zhu Di, who had just been feeling melancholy because his younger brothers were dwindling in number, said: Well said, I'll say it again next time!
.......
The live broadcast continues.
"That's why Zhu Di was so ruthless; the grain and provisions were originally seized from the imperial army to reward the captured soldiers."
"When he was a soldier, he didn't get any food, but now that he's a prisoner of war, he's receiving relief rations from the imperial court! I really wonder what Zhu Yunwen thinks about this?"
Zhu Yunwen: Don't mention it.
During the reign of Emperor Jianwen of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yunwen was furious. As later generations said, he, the Prince of Yan, was a wise and valiant ruler, while I, Zhu Yunwen, was mediocre and incompetent.
With the help of his descendants today, and so many people in the court wanting to defect to the Prince of Yan, how can he possibly win if morale is low and people's hearts are unsettled?
But in the end, he was unwilling to give up and admitted defeat.
"Actually, the treatment of these captured imperial soldiers was quite good. They drank and ate meat. Zhu Laosi even released some of them. They were much luckier than those who fell on the battlefield. At most, they just changed bosses and continued to work."
"The Southern Army even did some propaganda, mainly saying that the Yan Army had won again and that the main force of the Imperial Army had suffered a terrible defeat."
"With generals like Chen Hui and Ping An, who are at the commander level or above, being sent back to Beiping, the Jianwen court is truly on the verge of collapse. Does Zhu Yunwen still have any generals and soldiers left to fight against him?"
Judy: My nephew's soldier, we'll gladly accept him!
"After defeating He Fu, the Yan army continued to advance towards Sizhou, which is close to the Huai River and also very close to the Ming Ancestral Mausoleum."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhu Yuanzhang's heart skipped a beat. Could this rebellious son really rebel and go to worship his ancestors?
Lin Ke, unaware of the close bond between Zhu and his son, continued, "The Ming Ancestral Mausoleum is the tomb of three generations of Zhu's ancestors. It was built up until the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, when the filial grandson who changed Judy's name to Emperor Chengzu and moved the tomb to Zhu Gaochi was here."
Zhu Houcong: There's no need to explain it so clearly!
"Although the Ming Ancestral Mausoleum was flooded during the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty due to the Yellow River changing course and affecting the Huai River, Old Zhu (Zhu Xi) was relieved, as it is now a protected site."
Zhu Yuanzhang: (??? д ???)!!! Explain yourself!
"Back to the Jingnan Campaign, Zhu Di has already come here, so it's normal for him to pay respects to his ancestors. He didn't rebel, so he has a clear conscience. He was just following his father's orders to quell the rebellion!"
"So, Zhu Di not only sent people to pay respects to his ancestors, but also met with the elders and folks in the surrounding area, showing that he had also gone among the people. Everyone would say, 'This grandson of the Zhu family is quite capable!'"
"However, Zhu Di's purpose was certainly not just to worship his ancestors and file a minor complaint, because it was located near Xuyi County, where the Ming Dynasty's Huai River Navy was stationed."
“Judy can’t cross the Huai River without it. Besides, Sheng Yong, who ran away from Lingbi last time, took some soldiers and defected to the Huai River Navy. He really knows how to run away.”
