Chapter 64 Zhu Yuanzhang: Are you kidding me? This is not it!
After a simple packing, Xu Huizu prepared to leave Hesong Town.

He has already lost, so there is no point in staying in Fengyang.

Of course, he could stay and watch Li Jinglong make a fool of himself, waiting for Zhu Yunhuan to defeat and capture Li Jinglong for the second time.

However, those were just his words to tease Li Jinglong.

With more than 400,000 soldiers and horses at his disposal, as long as Li Jinglong plays it safe, he has no idea how Zhu Yunhuan will win.

"Sir, are we just leaving like this?" The guard looked unwilling.

"What? You dare to disobey His Majesty's order?" Xu Huizu said lightly.

The guard's expression changed and he lowered his head, not daring to speak again.

"People can't be compared." Xu Huizu shook his head, his heart filled with bitterness.

At this moment, he was also very angry.

Although in the eyes of many people, including himself, he came to Fengyang purely to pick up credit, but it should be said that while he was picking up credit, wasn't he also helping Li Jinglong clean up his mess?
Unexpectedly, now that he is no longer needed, he is kicked away.

His face is really disgusting.

"Duke Wei, please drive slowly." Li Jinglong walked over with Chen Xuan and Zhou Meng, with the corners of his mouth raised and a strong smile on his face.

"Hmph!" Xu Huizu's face darkened, and he jumped on his horse: "Gee!"

He didn't want to see Li Jinglong's smug face for even a second.

"Tsk, this mentality is too weak." Li Jinglong looked at Xu Huizu's back and couldn't help shaking his head.

Yingtianfu, small courtyard!

Jiang Li told Zhu Yuanzhang everything about how Zhu Yunwen asked Xu Huizu to take action and how he recalled Xu Huizu after Li Jinglong was released.

"Isn't this nonsense? How could Yunwen do such a stupid thing?" Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned and a little bit unbelievable.

Changing generals during a battle is a major taboo in military strategy.

Zhu Yunwen treated war as a joke. He appointed whoever he wanted as the commander-in-chief. It was ridiculous.

Jiang Li thought for a moment and said hesitantly, "Your Majesty, the relationship between Emperor Yunwen and Duke Cao is deep, so I understand why he made this choice. I think Emperor Yunwen may want Duke Cao to defeat Emperor Yunhuan personally to avoid leaving a shadow in his heart."

Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand and said, "Right is right, wrong is wrong. You don't need to excuse Yunwen. He was wrong in this matter. However, things have come to this point. Let it be wrong. I hope Li Jinglong will not betray Yunwen's trust."

"Your Majesty, don't worry. Duke Cao has already suffered a loss once, so there will definitely be no problems this time." Jiang Lin said.

"I hope so!" Zhu Yuanzhang rubbed his swollen temples, feeling helpless.

Things have already happened, and now that he has handed over the Ming Dynasty to Zhu Yunwen, he should let go appropriately.

Although what Zhu Yunwen did was extremely inappropriate, as long as Li Jinglong could defeat Zhu Yunhuan, the result was barely acceptable.

Of course, for Xu Huizu, no matter what he did, it would be extremely unfair.

Black Pine Town!
After experiencing the failure last time, Li Jinglong was obviously much more cautious this time. He did not act rashly, but made a detailed plan.

However, in order to thank Zhu Yunhuan for releasing him last time, he thought about it and asked someone to call Chen Xuan.

"Sir, are you looking for me?" Chen Xuan came to Li Jinglong.

"Chen Xuan, go to Fengyang and tell Emperor Yunhu's grandson that I will launch an attack tomorrow." Li Jinglong said.

"Sir, doesn't this allow the grandson of Emperor Yunhu to be prepared? In this way, it will be many times more difficult for us to capture Fengyang." Chen Xuan looked hesitant, somewhat puzzled by Li Jinglong's actions.

Telling the enemy in advance that I am coming to fight you, what the hell is this thinking?

"What? Are you questioning my decision?" Li Jinglong raised his eyebrows and said lightly.

"I dare not!" Chen Xuan shook his head quickly.

On the battlefield, the commander-in-chief had absolute dominance. If he disobeyed Li Jinglong's orders, who knew whether Li Jinglong would find a reason to chop off his head.

He didn't dare to gamble on such things. If he lost, he would lose his head.

"Go quickly and come back soon!" Li Jinglong waved his hand.

"Yes, sir!" Chen Xuan nodded, bowed and left.

"Grandson of the Emperor Yunhu, this is the limit of what I have done. I have done my utmost." Li Jinglong said softly.

No matter what, he would eventually defeat Zhu Yunhun. The only thing he could do was to avoid sneak attacks and let Zhu Yunhun lose in a decent manner.

Fengyang, County Government Office!
Zhu Yunhuan looked at the declaration of war in front of him and said with a smile: "It's really hard to believe that Fourth Uncle and Li Jinglong are both disciples of Li Wenzhong, and Li Jinglong is his biological son."

It's no wonder that he felt so emotional. The gap between Zhu Di and Li Jinglong was really too big.

It's like heaven and earth.

Soldiers who, deception also.

The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit.

The process is not important, what is important is the result.

It is obvious that Li Jinglong did not grasp the essence of fighting.

"Sanbao, go call the second brother over." Zhu Yunhuan shook his head and stopped sighing.

Since Li Jinglong took the initiative to express his goodwill, he had to accept it. It was just a good opportunity to test Zhu Gaoxu.

Apart from Zhu Laoer's other abilities, he definitely inherited Zhu Di's ability in fighting, and he was extremely fierce in battle.

Historically, if Zhu Zhanji had been able to properly deal with Zhu Gaoxu, the situation of the Ming Dynasty might have been very different. At that time, the Battle of Tumu Fort, which broke the backbone of the Ming Dynasty, might not have happened at all.

"Yes, Your Highness!" Ma Sanbao nodded and turned to leave.

As someone who served Zhu Yunhuan, he could feel the imperial aura of Zhu Yunhuan more and more recently. That aura could not be seen or touched, but it was very obvious in his every gesture.

It didn't take long.

Ma Sanbao called Zhu Gaoxu over.

"Brother Hun, what do you want to talk to me about?" Zhu Gaoxu asked.

"Second brother, sit down!" Zhu Yunhuan waved his hand.

Zhu Gaoxu came and sat next to Zhu Yunhuan, looking at Zhu Yunhuan.

"This is the declaration of war that Li Jinglong just sent. How about you go and meet Li Jinglong on my behalf?" Zhu Yunhuan picked up the declaration of war and threw it to Zhu Gaoxu.

"War letter?"

Zhu Gaoxu was stunned at first, then his face was full of disbelief: "Brother Hu, you want me to lead the troops to meet Li Jinglong?"

"What? Didn't you always say you would help me? Now the opportunity has come." Zhu Yunheng said with a smile.

Then, he said meaningfully, "Besides, isn't this why Fourth Uncle asked you to come here? I know your fighting ability well. It would be a waste of talent to keep you unused like this."

"What's going on?" Zhu Gaoxu was a little confused.

"Okay, go down and get ready, we'll be leaving the city soon." Zhu Yunhuan waved his hand.

Zhu Gaoxu stood up and left in a daze.

He found it a little hard to believe that the opportunity to lead troops that he had been seeking so hard for so long suddenly appeared. This situation made him feel a strong sense of unreality.
