Zhu Yuanzhang remembered the city wall of Jinling. He had not personally inspected it. As the leader of the rebel army, this really shouldn't be done.

In Zhu Jianhua's original memory, Chen Youliang's Han army ships were very powerful.

However, many things have two sides. It is easy to turn around when the boat is small, but it is not easy when the boat is big.

Zhu Yuanzhang came to the city wall of Jinling. At this moment, the city was already filled with lights from thousands of houses.

At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang felt full of accomplishment. In troubled times, his life was at risk, and it was not easy to have a place to stay.

Jinling City is commonly known as Stone City.

There is a poem by Zhu Dunru in Song Dynasty.

The west tower of Jinling City is leaning against Qingqiu. Thousands of miles of sunset falls on the ground, and the great river flows. The Central Plains is in chaos, and the hairpins and cherry blossoms are scattered. When will they be collected? The sad wind blows tears, passing through Yangzhou.

Expelling the Tartars and restoring China was Zhu Yuanzhang's mission and his destiny.

That night, Zhu Yuanzhang wandered around Jinling City for a long time.

Just when Zhu Yuanzhang was thinking about something, someone spoke to him, "Uncle, what are you doing here so late?"

Listening to the voice, Zhu Yuanzhang knew who it was. This was his nephew Zhu Wenzheng. He was his adopted nephew. Because Zhu Yuanzhang liked him very much, he asked him to change his surname to Zhu.

If someone said that Zhu Yuanzhang was nepotistic, looking at Zhu Wenzheng, he was not wronged.

Zhu Yuanzhang did not tell anyone about the situation of his father, mother, second brother and third brother. After all, there was nothing he could do if Zhu Yuanzhang did that.

Although Zhu Yuanzhang is now very powerful, he thinks it is better to be careful.

"Wenzheng! Do you think the city wall of Jinling is stable?" Zhu Yuanzhang pointed to the wall above and said.

Zhu Wenzheng took a look and said, "Although it is important to stabilize the city wall, it is even more important to stabilize the people's hearts."

Zhu Yuanzhang was very satisfied with Zhu Wenzheng's statement. As the saying goes, soldiers and people are the foundation of victory.

Since Zhu Yuanzhang occupied Jinling, relief measures have been implemented for those people in need.

This approach won Zhu Yuanzhang a lot of hearts, and many people praised Zhu Yuanzhang's army as a benevolent and righteous army.

"Wen Zheng! You are right. If someone leads a hundred warships to attack Jinling City, how many days do you think Jinling can hold on?" Zhu Yuanzhang said thoughtfully.

This was exactly what Zhu Yuanzhang was considering. Although according to records, such a thing did not happen in history, Zhu Yuanzhang still had to prepare in advance.

After all, it was an accident that he came to this era.

Since he could come here, Zhu Yuanzhang felt that others might be able to come here.

Especially Chen Youliang, this Chen Baldy rose like a comet. This made Zhu Yuanzhang very suspicious about where this Chen Baldy came from.

Generally speaking, it is very unlikely for an ordinary citizen, or a normal person, to be so murderous, and this Chen Tuzi is such a person.

He seems to have no sympathy for people of this era at all. Could it be that he also traveled through time?

Really, Zhu Yuanzhang was becoming more and more suspicious at this moment.

That's why he came to Jinling City late at night to inspect. After all, if there was any problem here in Jinling, he would be dead.

Therefore, the safety of Jinling City cannot be compromised. Today, only a small assassin came to Jinling City, which already made Zhu Yuanzhang feel very uncomfortable. dream life

If someone secretly sent a team of hundreds or thousands of people to Jinling City to directly attack Zhu Yuanzhang's commander-in-chief's residence in Jinling, how would he respond?

Zhu Yuanzhang must be very fully prepared. Everything will be done in advance, and failure in advance will lead to failure. Zhu Yuanzhang now feels very clearly about this.

"Wenzheng, if you were asked to defend a city, what would you do? If you only have 20,000 or 30,000 soldiers and horses in the city, and there are 600,000 soldiers and horses outside the city, and they also have hundreds of large ships, you How will you face it? Can you hold on for three months?"

When Zhu Yuanzhang said this, he did not look at Zhu Wenzheng. He seemed to be whispering, as if talking to himself. The two of them were now facing the Yangtze River.

"If my uncle asks me to defend a city, then I will live and die with the city. If the city is there, I will be there. If the city is broken, I will die. But before the city is broken, I will also make the enemy pay 10 times the price. Of course. I will also take certain measures to prevent the enemy's large ships from taking advantage." Zhu Wenzheng said with confidence.

After Zhu Yuanzhang heard Zhu Wenzheng's words, to be honest, he was very pleased.

His nephew is really great. Really, Zhu Yuanzhang was really reluctant to let him defend Hongdu City.

However, there is no way. Zhu Yuanzhang must prepare this matter now.

Because the historical records are very clear, Chen Youliang was traveling down the river. He could have bypassed Hongdu City and directly invaded Jinling, but for some unknown reason, he launched an attack on Hongdu City instead.

"Zhu Wen is listening to the order!" Zhu Yuanzhang said in a deep and unquestionable voice.

"The general is here!" Zhu Wenzheng said.

"I order you to lead 30,000 elite rebel brothers and secretly sneak into Hongdu City. You will be fully responsible for the task of defending Hongdu City. Be careful and remember to keep it confidential!" Zhu Yuanzhang issued a secret order.

"Got the order!" Zhu Wenzheng immediately went to carry out Zhu Yuanzhang's military order.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the rolling Yangtze River on the opposite side, and then at Zhongshan in the distance.

He ordered Zhu Wenzheng to defend Hongdu City, so he would personally defend Jinling City.

Jinling City is the home base of Zhu Yuanzhang's power, and he must step up preparations.

Tomorrow he will order people to prepare some measures to prevent those large ships flowing down the river from attacking Jinling City directly from the ships.

If they cannot get close to Jinling City, then their big ships will lose their mobility.

When those soldiers got off the ship, they were just ordinary soldiers and not worth thinking about at all.

No, Zhu Yuanzhang decided to let people prepare now.

"You invite Li Shanchang and Xu Da here."

I don't know if Li Shanchang's letter to Liu Bowen has been written yet. Thinking of what Li Shanchang said about Liu Bowen, Zhu Yuanzhang smiled very rarely.

He is too nervous and should relax.

The way of civil and military affairs is relaxed and relaxed.

As long as he is fully prepared, no matter who comes to attack Jinling City, Zhu Yuanzhang will make it impossible for them to come back.

This is his territory now, and he will build his country's capital here in the future. How could he let others destroy every plant and tree here?

That is an impossible thing.

How can you allow others to snore and sleep on the side of the couch?

When Zhu Yuanzhang took Jinling, he did so out of wit, and the city of Jinling was not damaged in any way.

"Come on! It's so late. What's going on?"
