Go to the study.
Zhu Yuanzhang looked ferocious at this moment, his eyes were bloodshot, and he roared angrily:
"Hepu County was attacked, where is our mark?"
"Damn Li Jin, let him be the magistrate of Qinzhou. Why can't he just stay in Hepu County and have to provoke Annan?"
"If there is a large army garrisoned, how can the chieftain and those people break through the defenses of Hepu County?"
"If something goes wrong with our standard, we will cut Li Jin into pieces!!"
"Where's Fu Youde? Where's Fu Youde? Didn't we ask him to return to his native land with a hundred thousand troops as the standard and escort him?"
"Why did Hepu County fall now?"
"They all deserve to be killed! If Biao'er loses a hair, we must let these people be buried with our Biao'er!"
At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang was overwhelmed by anger, and was yelling in the study room as if he had lost his mind.
The commander of the Jin Yiwei made Mao Xiang crawl on the ground sweating profusely, feeling terrified in his heart.
Just now, Mao Xiang heard the report from his Jin Yiwei that Hepu County was attacked, the city fell, the chieftain occupied the county government office, and the prince was missing.
Although Zhu Biao had left Hepu County in advance, Jinyiwei's manpower in Hepu County was seriously insufficient, and it was not clear when Zhu Biao left Hepu County.
In addition, the chieftain's attack was so sudden that many Jinyi guards were trapped in the city by the chieftain before they had time to evacuate, and were eventually killed by the chieftain.
The Jin Yiwei who reported to Mao Xiang was the Jin Yiwei stationed in Guangdong. He also heard what the businessman who had a chance to escape said. After sending someone to confirm, he reported the matter to Mao Xiang.
Before reporting the matter to Zhu Yuanzhang, Mao Xiang knew that Zhu Yuanzhang would be furious. He was the crown prince of a country, the heir whom Zhu Yuanzhang had trained with great pains and painstaking efforts.
If it really falls in Hepu County, then the sky of Ming Dynasty will probably collapse.
"Send someone to sneak into Hepu County immediately. We want to see Biao'er return safe and sound."
Zhu Yuanzhang looked gloomily and said in a cold tone:
"You take people there in person. If you don't bring them back, then you don't have to come back!"
"do you understand?"
The cold murderous intent enveloped Mao Xiang's whole body, making his hair stand on end, and a chill rushed from the soles of his feet to the sky.
"I understand the humble position!!"
After saying that, Mao Xiang gave Zhu Yuanzhang a big gift, and then carefully exited the study room.
After Zhu Yuanzhang waited for Mao Xiang to leave, he was still anxious and walked around the room non-stop.
After a long time, Zhu Yuanzhang issued another decree:
"Pass the message for Mu Ying to come and see us!!"
Soon, Mu Ying was hurriedly brought to Zhu Yuanzhang by Xiao Huangmen.
"See the Emperor."
"Get up!"
Zhu Yuanzhang didn't have time to chat with Mu Ying. He told Mu Ying straight to the point about Zhu Biao, and then ordered:
"Ying'er, there is no time to waste. You go back and clean up quickly. After tomorrow, you will lead your army south. You must rescue your brother!"
Mu Ying did not expect Zhu Biao to be in danger, so she immediately stopped hesitating and declared that she was right.
Then Mu Ying couldn't help but ask:
"Your Majesty, why did His Highness appear in Hepu County?"
“Isn’t it because of that bitch Li Jin???”
When Zhu Yuanzhang mentioned this matter, he gritted his teeth angrily. If it weren't for Li Jin, how could Zhu Biao, as the prince, appear in Qinzhou, that corner of the country?
"Li Jin? The magistrate of Shanghu County? The murderer who ordered the massacre of 300,000 Japanese?"
Although Mu Ying did not care about politics, she had heard of Li Jin's evil reputation in the military camp.
Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, he was the only commander who massacred a city, and he was a ruthless man who massacred 300,000 people at one time. Rumor has spread among the army.
Everyone thought Li Jin was dead, but they didn't expect that he actually ran to Shanghu County.
"it's him!"
Zhu Yuanzhang seemed to have thought of something, and said to Mu Ying:
"After you go south to put down the rebellion this time, escort that bitch Li Jin back to us!"
"yes!"
Mu Ying said nothing more and turned to leave.
Then Zhu Yuanzhang looked towards the south and murmured:
"Biao'er, if something happens to you, we will never let anyone involved go."
...
One hundred thousand mountains.
After Ruan Xiufeng evaded the pursuit of the Ming army in embarrassment, he finally reached the entrance of Shiwan Mountain after going through all kinds of hardships.
Looking at the endless mountains in the distance, Ruan Xiufeng's embarrassed face finally showed a long-lost smile.
"It's finally safe."
"As long as we pass through the mountain pass ahead, we can get rid of the Ming army's pursuit, and then we can go home."
Ruan Xiufeng said to Ruan Xiulin beside him:
"The terrain of Shiwanda Mountain is steep, the mountain roads are rugged, and there are deep mountains and old forests everywhere. The Ming army will definitely not dare to pursue them."
"If these people really dare to chase into Shiwanda Mountain, they are looking for death."
"The mountains are densely covered with trees, blocking the view. The Ming army's firearms cannot exert their power inside. Without those firearms, they would not be our opponents at all."
"When the time comes, we can avenge our dead brothers!"
Ruan Xiufeng became more and more excited as he talked, but Ruan Xiulin was not so optimistic. He said with some worry:
"Brother, we offended Meng Xiao from Qingxiu Mountain last time. This time when we enter Shiwan Mountain, will we be blocked by Meng Xiao?"
"Hey, who is Meng Xiao?"
Ruan Xiufeng looked disdainful and said contemptuously:
"Give him face and call him Brother Meng. If you don't give him face, I will put him in the coffin!"
"He Meng Xiao escaped before the battle. If he knows what's going on, we can leave him alone. If not, we will directly unite with the tribes of Shiwandashan and destroy Qingxiu Mountain."
"After we go back this time, we will move as a family. When the time comes, we will enter the Hundred Thousand Mountains. These Hundred Thousand Mountains will be our Ruan family's world."
"Meng Xiao had better not come here to cause trouble, otherwise he will look good when the time comes."
Ruan Xiulin sighed in his heart, he always felt that entering the mountain this time would not be so easy.
However, seeing Ruan Xiufeng's confident look, Ruan Xiulin could only nod helplessly and suggested:
"Brother, let's go into the mountains quickly. The Ming army is chasing us. Let's go into the mountains early to avoid long nights and dreams."
Ruan Xiufeng puffed out his chest and scolded:
"What are you afraid of? There are hundreds of thousands of mountains ahead. We can run away at any time. Why are we afraid of the Ming army?"
At this moment, bursts of gunfire rang out not far behind him, and Ruan Xiufeng's waist, which had been straight just now, suddenly bent.
"Let's go, let's go now, let's go now!!"
Ruan Xiufeng no longer dared to brag and immediately led the people to escape to the mountain pass.
He thought he was escaping, but he didn't know there was a big net waiting for him.
