Chapter 516 This is the battlefield
Jiang Pengju and more than a dozen people stopped the pirates. A platoon leader took advantage of this opportunity to organize the team and started shooting again.
At this time, the pirates finally lost the courage to fight. Just now, Zhenhailong used coercion and temptation to organize more than 100 people. Now the musket sounded again and completely shattered the pirates' courage. The remaining fifty pirates scattered like birds and beasts, fleeing into the mountains.
Jiang Pengju, covered in blood, returned to his team. The wave of pirates just now caused great losses to his side. Jiang Pengju glanced at more than a dozen brothers lying down. Jiang Pengju found Zhu Jiang in the crowd and saw that Zhu Jiang was covered in blood, but was not injured. Jiang Pengju breathed a sigh of relief, as long as the master was fine.
The blood on Zhu Jiang's body was not his. During the melee, a pirate rushed into the queue. Maybe he saw Zhu Jiang's tall and big horse, and he felt like he was a veteran, and he had a knife at Zhu Jiang.
Zhu Jiang joined the army for less than two months. He had seen this formation and was frightened when he saw the pirate running to him. Just as the pirate's knife was about to slash Zhu Jiang, Song Li rushed out from the side and blocked the fatal knife for Zhu Jiang.
Seeing Song Li lying in his arms, Zhu Jiang hurriedly hugged Song Li. Seeing this knife split Song Li from his shoulder and split half of his body. It seemed that Song Li could not survive anymore.
Zhu Jiang grabbed Song Li's hand and didn't know what to say. Unexpectedly, a friend who had just made a month ago could sacrifice his life to save him at a critical moment.
Song Li grabbed Zhu Jiang's hand and said, "Your Majesty the King of Qin, my subordinates are secret spies in the army. I have finally completed the order!"
Zhu Jiang didn't expect that he would have the eyes and ears of his father in a place like a pig farm, and asked: "Song Li, what did you say? Did you send it from his father?"
Song Li smiled and whispered: "Yes, I can die, but the King of Qin cannot die. This is Your Majesty's order! If the King of Qin is in trouble, my whole family will be buried with the King of Qin! Now, I'm dead, my family will finally not have to die!"
"Song Li! Song Li! You can't die, your family is there, I want to give them money!"
Song Li's words just now have already returned, and now that she has exhausted her strength, Song Li has already died.
Jiang Pengju came over and grabbed Zhu Jiang, looked up and down and saw that it was fine. Jiang Pengju breathed a sigh of relief. Then he said to the deputy company commander: "These pirates are exhausted. You can use the power of the musket team to eliminate them!" The deputy company commander took the order to lead people down to clear out the remaining pirates. At this time, a platoon leader came over and suffered several knife wounds on his body, but he didn't care, but said with a smile: "Sir, now that he has the great contribution of extermination of pirates, you can restore his post!"
Jiang Pengju sighed, looked at Zhu Jiang who was sitting aside, and said in his heart: The hope of resuming his post will still be with this King of Qin!
Zhu Jiang was frightened by Song Li's death. He didn't expect that an unfamiliar person could save him without hesitation. Why?
When Zhu Jiang woke up, he had been sitting here for half an hour. The soldiers around him did not disturb him after receiving Jiang Pengju's order. Now that he saw Zhu Jiang awake, he said, "The fourth platoon commander, the company commander said, "When you wake up, you ask you to go to the beach!"
Zhu Jiang nodded, stood up and walked through the woods and came to the beach.
The beach has now become a slaughterhouse. The deputy company commander has captured more than 200 pirates. They are now kneeling on the beach. Their company commander Jiang Peng raised his shirtless, holding a guillotine in his hand, and was cutting the pirates' heads one by one.
Jiang Peng raised his sword and cut off a pirate's head, stepped on the pirate's shaking body with his feet, causing blood to squirt to the beach. This way, Zhu Jiang remembered that they killed pigs in their pig farm, but one was to open the crane and the other was to behead the head.
More than 200 pirates on the beach have been cut down more than 100 people, and more than 50 have not been cut down. They are crying at the side and begging for mercy.
When Jiang Pengju saw Zhu Jiang coming, he grinned: "Your Highness, have you woken up? How about it? You try beheading your head too? It's very good!"
Zhu Jiang suppressed his disgust and shook his head, asking, "These pirates have surrendered, why should they kill them?"
Jiang Pengju frowned, put down the guillotine, waved to a row of long men standing beside him, and sent a bamboo tube full of water. Jiang Pengju drank it all, and then said to Zhu Jiang: "Your Highness, this is the battlefield. Our brothers were killed by these guys more than ten times. If they don't kill them, how can I explain to the dead brother? One of your friends, isn't that named Song dead to save you?"
When Jiang Pengju mentioned Song Li, Zhu Jiang said angrily: "He is the spy of his father. If he doesn't save me, his whole family will die. He doesn't save me because he is really for me, but because he is afraid of my father!" After Zhu Jiang said that, he squatted down and cried.
When Jiang Pengju saw Zhu Jiang like this, he waved his hand to let the ranks stay away. Jiang Pengju also squatted down and said, "Your Highness, you have not been an ordinary person since the day you were born. Do you think you left the military camp and gave the prince a look that he would not fight for the throne in the future? Can the prince let you go? Can the prince let you go? Your mother, your uncle, your grandfather, do you think the prince can let them go? Save your name Song Li, do you think he will be unlucky if you have any trouble? Me! My family! Zhang Bao! Zhang Bao's family! We all want to be buried with you. Do you know how important you are? You are still as arrogant as a child. Do you know how many people are unlucky with you when you return to Guangdong to be the Prince of Taiping?"
Zhu Jiang didn't expect that he would be so involved in his idea of going back to be the Prince of Taiping. He asked, "What does it have to do with you when I go back to Guangdong to be my prince?"
Jiang Pengju shook his head and said, "Your Highness, do you think this is a house? If you haven't come out to join the army, it's nothing. You continue to be your Prince Taiping, but you have already boarded the boat and you have already acted like you want to fight for the prince. This road is not something you can retreat if you want to retreat. Your Highness, you have studied a lot, look at the failure of the fight for the prince. So since you have walked the beginning of this road, it's not something you can end if you want to end!"
Zhu Jiang stood up and wiped his tears, and asked, "Jiang Pengju, why do you want to help me?"
When Jiang Pengju heard Zhu Jiang’s question, he knelt down on one knee and said, “Your Highness, the prince is supported by the second master of the Ma family. He is surrounded by literati, but I am a military man. I used to be a military household in Henan. I know how low the status of these military households were during the Taiping period. Back then, we were our garrison masters. I would kneel down and kowtow when I saw a juren. I don’t want us military officers to have no status as before after the prince ascended the throne, so I hope Your Highness will ascend the throne and give us military officers justice!”
After hearing Jiang Pengju say that, Zhu Jiang also thought about it. In ancient China, brothers could all take action to fight for the throne. Since he had already taken this path, he had to go on.
"Jiang Pengju, how many people in the military can support me as the prince?"
"Your Highness, I have only contacted a few people now, one of Zhang Bao, one of our division commanders, Zhao Guodong, and the others are in contact!"
When Zhu Jiang heard Jiang Pengju say this, he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, since that's the case, I will go to the end with you and see who can laugh to the end!"
When Jiang Pengju heard Zhu Jiang agreeing to him, he was happy and stood up and said to Zhu Jiang: "Your Highness, since you want to join the army, let's practice your courage first!" After that, he handed the guillotine in his hand to Zhu Jiang and signaled him to kill the pirate in front of him.
The pirate originally thought he would not have to die, but when he saw the appearance in front of him, he couldn't escape. He was so scared that he kicked his bound feet and hands, hoping to stay away from these two murderers.
Zhu Jiang was so scared that he was so scared that he was urinating. He gritted his teeth and pointed it at the pirate's head. Zhu Jiang had no idea about the trick at the first time. This guillotine did not cut the joint of his neck, but was cut to the back of his head. The pirate's entire head was chopped and his white brain flowed all over the floor.
Zhu Jiang could no longer control this and lay on the side and vomited loudly. Jiang Pengju originally wanted Zhu Jiang to practice his skills, but when he saw that he called a platoon leader and asked him to help Zhu Jiang back. However, Zhu Jiang pushed the platoon away and picked up the guillotine and rushed to the second pirate.
In ancient China, all promising monarchs had to go through a bloody storm when choosing heirs. The main reason was that they were too excellent. These emperors knew that their country was hard-won, so they had high requirements for second-generation heirs. However, people are different. Some people like to be emperors, and some people don’t like to be emperors. This naturally cannot satisfy the emperor. Therefore, the second-generation monarchs in the ancient Chinese unification dynasty had to go through a struggle.
. Needless to say, the Qin Dynasty died in the second lifetime; the Han Dynasty killed Empress Lu's family after Liu Bang's death; Yang Jian of the Sui Dynasty had such a great talent and strategy to make mistakes in his heirs; there is no need to say much about the Xuanwu Gate Incident in the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin could kill his own brothers; the sound of the candle shadow and axe of Emperor Taizong of Song Dynasty; the prince Zhen Jin of Kublai Khan in the Yuan Dynasty was executed by him; the Jingnan Battle in the Ming Dynasty; the Nine Dragons' battle for the throne in the Qing Dynasty even brought the battle for the throne to a new height.
It is precisely because Zhu Hongsan knew these stories that his favorite son Zhu Jiang did not make his favorite son compete for the throne. But Zhu Hongsan forgot that the children also had to grow up. They were all born by a father and naturally had the right to inherit. I am no worse than you. Isn’t it just that Zhu Hai was born a few months earlier than me? With this kind of thought, and some ministers with various purposes were fueling the fire, the issue of the heirs of the Shenwu Dynasty must be rich and colorful.
When Zhu Jiang and Jiang Pengju reported to Nanjing for the victory of destroying the pirates, Zhu Hongsan was very happy for his son. After all, as a father, he also hoped that his son would become a talent. So Zhu Hongsan promoted Zhu Jiang to battalion commander with a stroke of his pen and became an intermediate officer. Jiang Pengju was reinstated and was transferred to the newly formed 10th Division as deputy commander. The commander was Zhang Bao from the Logistics Department of the Second Division, and he was also considered their old acquaintance.
