Chapter 137 How can you cheat the third prince Zhu like this?

The meaning of Xiushui River and the Broken Bridge Scheme is actually very simple. It is to ask King Zhu Tian to send troops to set up an ambush on the east side of the only wooden arch bridge on Xiushui River, and to place thunder bombs on the bridge pier. When Shang Kexi's front team crossed the bridge, the bridge was bombed and the ambush attacked.

This is actually a standardized tactic for the Jinyi pro-military army - because of the emergence of a series of weapons that use sweet gunpowder as combat charges, many of the previous tactics have been eliminated. Zhu Hechan, who knew some later war forms, and the military advisor's mansion, the Youth Hall, and the young artillery leader, worked together to study several new tactics of using grenades, hammer throwing guns and sugar bombs to raid ambush, including the Broken Bridge Strategy.

King Zhu Tian should have known about this broken bridge scheme, because the Military Advisor's Office sent him a document specifically introducing several new tactics, including the broken bridge scheme.

But the Heavenly King Zhu seemed to have forgotten... Maybe he didn't watch it at all!

Su Yong, general and senior secretary of Jinyiwei Bei Town, also received the same document, but he carefully read it word by word. When he met a character he didn't know, he even asked his son Su Zhanshan and nephew Su Zhanhai for advice.

However, Su Yong did not speak up to teach the King Zhu at this moment - he felt that he should give the King Zhu some face. The King of the State and the former Grand Secretary of Ru, how could he know nothing like a fool?

Besides, he was not very close to the king Zhu, so he followed Daboling up the mountain. If Daboling hadn't insisted on staying on Danan Mountain to be the female gentleman of the cannon Zhu, he would have gone down the mountain long ago.

Now that he became the head of the Su clan with the support of Zhu Hezang and Daboling, he labeled the Taisun Sect, so he could not be too active in front of the Third Prince Zhu.

Zhao Zhongyi also knew how to use the Broken Bridge Scheme. He was the admiral of the four sects and was in charge of the six leaders of the "Sect Army". Of course, he had to master the latest tactics. However, he did not tell King Zhu that he planned to secretly tell King Zhu that this was what his confidant did.

Zhuge Sanhe's son Zhuge Zhengyang of course knew how to use the Broken Bridge Scheme, but he didn't say it... He was a "child" and adults didn't say it, how could he say it? How could Zhuge so ignorant of the truth?

So there was silence in the lobby!

This is a bit embarrassing!

Prince Zhu San held a trick but didn't know how to use it.

And he, the governor, did not pay much attention to it. He didn't know how to hold a small meeting to study it behind closed doors, but wanted to ask the four guests who visited. Oh, these four are not guests, they are all former Confucian Grand Secretary! In the future, everyone will discuss how to revive China and spread Confucianism. Now it's okay to discuss the tricks.

So the third prince Zhu smiled and asked, "Mr. Chen, monk Jinzhong, Bada Shanren, Mr. Shunshui, you are very knowledgeable and must know what the Broken Bridge plan passed down by the Zhuge family is, right?"

These four great masters are of course knowledgeable, and are happy to give advice on the cause of the anti-Qing Dynasty.

The first thing to come up with the idea was the old man Zhu Zhiyu. The old man was a great scholar who spreads Confucian truth in Japan. However, the Japanese samurai in the Edo period liked military talks related to Chinese history, that is, stories and novels about Chinese history and military. Among them, "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is of course the first place in the "best-selling list". While telling the students about Confucian righteousness, Mr. Zhu also wanted to talk about the Three Kingdoms... So when he heard the "broken bridge plan", he remembered the allusion of "Zhang Fei drank and broke the Dangyang Bridge".

So he said to Prince Zhu San: "His Royal Highness Ding, the plan of the military advisor Zhuge to break the bridge, will it refer to the allusion of Zhang Fei's drunkenness and breaking the Dangyang Bridge?"

"Mr. Shunshui's words are reasonable. Military Advisor Zhuge's clever plan must be related to the affairs of the Three Kingdoms." Qu Dajun, the monk of Jinzhong, nodded and agreed, "The most famous allusion of the Broken Bridge in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" seems to be Zhang Fei's Broken Dangyang."

Bada Shanren also picked up his beard and said with a smile: "I have heard about the military advisor Zhuge in Jiangxi... It is said that a general under the Tartar Emperor picked up a magic weapon chamber pot that had not exploded on the battlefield and took it to Beijing to offer treasures. The little Tartar Emperor also issued an edict to ask Zhang Tianshi of Longhushan to Beijing to study the chamber pot. This matter has spread throughout the Jiangxi Daomen Sect! Your Highness Ding, with the assistance of this military advisor Zhuge, our Ming Dynasty seems to be hoped for revival!"

"There is still this matter..." Prince Zhu San touched his five long beards and thoughtfully, and then he muttered, "Zhang Fei drank the Dangyang Bridge? But in Jieyang City today, who can drank the Xiushui Bridge?"

"Of course it's Your Highness, Your Highness," Chen Yonghua said with a smile, "You are the ones in Jieyang City who are loud and powerful, holding a Guan sword in your hand, and you are just waiting for thousands of horses and thousands of troops!"

"Is this a bluff?"

The third prince Zhu is educated, so he has read "Romance of the Three Kingdoms". Of course, he remembers this passage, so he asked a few subordinates: "Brave Su, loyal Zhao, Xiao Zhuge, do you think that the lonely family can scare Shang Kexi's army by himself?"

He is so brave that he really plans to go out. He is worthy of being the "barbaric version of the third prince" who has been a bandit for many years.

The brave Su, Zhongyi Zhao, and Xiao Zhuge were all stunned and said, "It turns out that if you have a son, you will have a father!"

"able!"

"It must be!"

"It must be possible!"

These three are all full of confidence! Although Shang Kexi has an army of 50,000, and they only have 600 standing troops on hand, they still have the confidence to win!

"Master," said Xiao Zhuge, and took off the grenade hammer hanging on his belt. "We have this... we will win! Although we can't beat Shang Kexi's main force, there is no problem with the vanguard who severely attacks them. As long as they can severely attack their vanguard, Shang Kexi's old turtle will definitely make progress. Once he slows down, the general trend will be on our side. As long as the prince wins Macau, we will definitely win!"

"What? Fight Macau?" Chen Yonghua was shocked when he heard Xiao Zhuge's words and jumped up from the chair. "When did it happen? Why didn't you discuss it with us?"

Seeing Chen Yonghua's reaction, Zhu Tianwang, brave Su, Zhongyi and Zhao were also very surprised, and Xiao Zhuge simply didn't dare to speak.

King Zhu Tian smiled and said, "It has been a few days since I sent troops... I guess there will be a victory report in the next few days."

"Good news? How is this possible?" Chen Yonghua shook his head repeatedly, "How many of you are? How can you beat Macau? Moreover, the Macau's turret is stuck in the Haojiang Waterway, and your ships cannot enter the port."

"The Scared Boy borrowed three thousand soldiers from his father-in-law, and also hijacked the Great Oriental of the British East India Company, preparing to sneak into Macau Port..."

"What? You guys actually..." Chen Yonghua said this, his face suddenly changed drastically, and he muttered in a low voice, "Big Boss Hui..."

It turned out that the boss Hui concealed the two things that Zhu Hetang borrowed troops and hijacked the Dadongfang from the Yanping Mansion.

This is no small problem!

This is a matter of taking sides!

The boss Hui probably wanted to surrender from the Yanping Palace to the Jieyang court... If the Jieyang court really conquered Macau, the boss Hui would not think that he would surrender to the Jieyang court.

After all, his relationship with Prince Zhu San was good. His daughter also married Prince Zhu San, and his son and Prince Zhu San were also good brothers for many years. This is all "three good things". If Jieyang has greater power, why should Qiu Hui still follow the Yanping Mansion, which has no future?

Thinking of this, Chen Yonghua had already put away his surprised expression, regained his calm smile, and said to Zhu Tianwang: "Your Highness, Shang Kexi's army is suddenly advancing. It is very likely that he learned that the prince's success in Macau. So if you want to send troops, it is best to hurry up, so as not to let Shang Kexi's soldiers occupy Xiushui Bridge first.

In addition, I have long heard that Jinyi's personal army can fight well, so I also want to witness them use grenade hammers to defeat the Shang family's soldiers."
