Chapter 57

The arrogant arrogance of the bandit leader made Zhu Di feel nervous. Zhu Di stared at the bandit leader. He never expected that his identity could not even shock the little bandit, but instead made him even more arrogant. He dared not act rashly. The bandit seemed to be even more arrogant than the Sichuan rebels he had encountered in Yunnan before.

"Get out quickly! I can't wait to see what the Ming Dynasty prince is like..." Before the bandit leader finished speaking, he stared blankly at the black tube emerging from the window of the carriage where Zhu Di was, and had not yet waited for him to press the trigger of the musket.

"Noisy!" The child's clear voice sounded. With a loud noise, the bandit leader who had been arrogant and domineering before fell to the ground. Like the dead guard, he looked in disbelief. There was a blood hole on the forehead of the bandit leader, and the wound was slightly burnt. A few wisps of blue smoke were emitting from the window of Zhu Di's carriage.

"Hey, I didn't want to do this, who told you to touch him?" Ma Sanbao said, "How could Zhu Di be coveted by these bandits? Ma Sanbao regarded Zhu Di as his backer. Who is this? The future emperor, these bandits want to seek benefits from the hands of the future emperor, so don't even think about it."

As the bandit leader with the musket fell down, the bandits were in trouble. Although they had muskets, the leader had them. Other bandits did not have muskets. Seeing that their leaders died inexplicably, they also knew that Zhu Di's convoy also had lethal weapons similar to muskets. Once the bandit leader died, the bandits naturally had no leader.

"If you don't want toast, you will be punished! I will wipe out all of them!" Zhu Di said coldly, "Do you have a grand funeral!"

For a moment, the crowd was infuriated. The guards who had been tripped off immediately broke free from their restraints and pulled out sharp blades from the waist of the bandits and stabbed them into the bandits' chest. Zhu Di's guards were all veterans who had retired from the army. They were naturally able to kill the bandits for a long time. The bandits were no match for Zhu Di's guards at all. After a few strokes, most of the bandits were wiped out. The bandits who were still arrogant were immediately like cabbages and ran around.

The bandit leader never expected that he would hit the iron plate and take the idea of ​​the Ming Dynasty royal family, which would destiny.

"I still want to escape? Wenhe and I personally destroy the enemy! Heifeng Village, right? Wait for me, I'll silence me!" Zhu Di said, he walked out of the carriage, looked at the bandits running around, and wished he could come on the stage to wipe them out. Heifeng Village's evil name, Nanjing City, has heard of it, but this group of bandits cunning, and every time he heard the news of the officers and soldiers, there was no movement. Zhu Yuanzhang's current focus is on foreign wars, and he is not so concerned about the bandits' affairs, which has also increased the bandits' arrogance. Zhu Di and Zhu Yuanzhang are different. The bandits have all made ground on their heads, so he naturally doesn't want to let Heifeng Village go.

"Bah, Your Highness, you want to come on your own. If you really want me to go to the bandits' village to wipe out it, I won't go. Even if I have a kid, I won't go. This is a death sentence! Otherwise, I will give you a kid, and I will wait for your good news in the car!" Ma Sanbao said to Zhu Di seriously. Zhu Di was one of the few who saw Ma Sanbao's serious expressions. The child who used to play tricks in front of him suddenly became serious, which made Zhu Di understand the seriousness of the matter.

The fourth prince touched his head and suddenly felt that he was thinking too much. He went to the bandit's nest to wipe out the bandits. Without enough troops, he and Ma Sanbao were indeed going to die. After all, two fists could not defeat four hands, and the hero could not resist many people. He also knew that the gun in Ma Sanbao's hand did not produce endless bullets. Once all the bullets in the magazine were fired, it would take time to change the bullets. It was impossible to say that there was another musket in the bandit's nest, and he was completely killed.

The muskets on the ground attracted Zhu Di's attention, and Zhu Di did not have much impact on the death of the guard. After all, for him, the guard was just a guard, but it was different to Ma Sanbao. Ma Sanbao, who had been influenced by socialism, was most disgusted with feudal ideas. The grand funeral was also proposed by Ma Sanbao. Otherwise, as far as Zhu Di was concerned, he would not be too concerned about a guard.

"Sister Yaoxian, it's okay." Ma Sanbao walked to Yaoxian's carriage, but he sealed the Yaoxian's carriage curtain and prevented Yaoxian from poking his head out. At the moment, the casualties were tragic. There were Zhu Di's guards and bandits, most of them were the corpses of the bandits. In addition to being killed by muskets before, Zhu Di's guards were seriously injured. Other doctors went to treat them. In such a bloody and tragic scene, Ma Sanbao didn't want Yaoxian to be scared.

"Is no one injured?" A gentle voice came from the car. A bandit had approached Yaoxian's carriage before. Fortunately, Zhu Di's guards stopped him. Otherwise, if Yaoxian was discovered by the bandits, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"It's just one person, a doctor has already come to treat him. Sister, don't worry, don't be frightened." Ma Sanbao said. There are only two people he can't let go of in this group, Zhu Di and Yaoxian. After all, Yaoxian is the most beautiful woman he has ever seen. He doesn't want the woman he likes to be hurt.

"That's good." Yaoxian spoke. Ma Sanbao insisted on not letting her get out of the car, but she did not force her to get out of the car. Yaoxian sat in the car understandingly, but her calm appearance made Ma Sanbao a little confused. Why was Yaoxian not panicked at all when the bandits shouted for a woman before?

Yaoxian was fine, so Ma Sanbao lost his breath. After investigating the other maids and servants, he quietly got into the carriage and waited for the servants and guards to clean up the mess.

"It's so unlucky. I just set off and encountered a bandit. Maybe what else would I encounter later! Wenhe, can you have enough bullets for your magic weapon?" Although Zhu Di's calm appearance, his heart was actually beating rapidly. The leader of the bandit had a musket pointing at him. If Ma Sanbao's ak was not faster than the musket, he might have died. Zhu Di was still young, but in his early twenties, he didn't want to die so unclearly. Perhaps this would be the first prince in history to die at the hands of a bandit.

"Don't worry, there are absolutely sufficient bullet preparations. A lot of them have been built in Nanjing City!" Ma Sanbao said the truth. In the industrial park, he built tens of thousands of bullets, and now they are all in the carriage behind. Even Zhu Di's carriage has four magazines prepared. He is not afraid of insufficient bullets. If it weren't for the fact that AK's ammunition would be too troublesome, he would not have the ability to unlimited bullets, otherwise he and Zhu Di could really wipe out the bandits of Heifeng Village.

Seeing that the bandits were far away from their sight and could not even observe the bandits' movements with telescopes, Zhu Di's convoy set off and they soon arrived at the city closest to Nanjing City. Zhu Di sent local officers and soldiers to customize a coffin and sent the dead guard's body back to Nanjing City at a rapid pace. At the same time, according to Ma Sanbao's request, the guard's family was given a large amount of burial fee.

If there is a high-speed train from Nanjing to Peiping, it will take only a few hours to reach it. Unfortunately, this group of people did not have such means of transportation in the Ming Dynasty. The only way they can use is a carriage. From Nanjing to Peiping, it takes three days to get there by carriage and a hardship. Fortunately, there are cities along the way to rest, so Zhu Di will naturally not be hindered from entering the city as a prince.

Along the way, Zhu Di's guards were extremely vigilant because of the attacks of the bandits in Heifeng Village. Even if there were any movement around, they could attract the attention of everyone. They did not dare to slack off. A brother died when he left Nanjing City. They were much more alert. Even ordinary people would stare at the people who stayed away from the convoy before they let go of their guards.

At the beginning of the first lunar month, Beiping was covered with snow. Along the way, except for the Black Wind Village bandits who were not eye-catching, no other bandits stopped Zhu Di and others' convoys. Outside the city of Beiping, there was no snow on the road leading directly to Beiping. When they learned that Zhu Di had arrived in Beiping, the yamen in Beiping knew that they had swept away the snow in front of the door and let Zhu Di's convoy go.

The magnificent Great Wall is a bit different from Nanjing City. In terms of area, Peking is a little larger. From the perspective of the city, Peking is even more grand than Nanjing City. No wonder in Ma Sanbao's perception, after Zhu Di, Peiping became the name of the capital renamed Beijing.

The city gate of Peking was close to me. The weather was cold, and even the moat had thin ice. In terms of the weather, Peking was a little colder than Nanjing. Zhu Di and Ma Sanbao couldn't help but wrap their clothes tightly.

"Welcome to Beiping for the Fourth Prince Zhu Di!" The officials in Beiping said respectfully. There is no imperial palace in Beiping. In Beiping, the status of the yamen is more authoritative than the yamen in Nanjing City in the eyes of the people. Without the constraints of such a huge object as the palace, the government in Beiping is the largest institution in the entire Beiping.

There was a lot of situations in Beiping to welcome Zhu Di. Most of the officials stood outside the city gate of Beiping and stood in a row according to the order of official positions. Even the prefect of Beiping came outside Beiping to welcome Zhu Di's arrival.

If Zhu Di came to Peiping as a prince, the prefect might not have appeared in front of Zhu Di, but now it is different. Zhu Di came to Beiping City as the general of Zhenbei, which naturally attracted the attention of the prefect. The identity of the general of Zhenbei is much more noble than the identity of a vassal king. This is an identity worth making friends with. With military achievements, his status among princes will also be improved in the future. The prefect also took a fancy to Zhu Di's potential and then came outside Beiping City. Otherwise, with their identity, the well water will generally not violate the rivers.

"I heard that the Fourth Highness went to Peking to open an industrial park similar to Nanjing City. I have prepared all this and even prepared the land deed for you." As soon as I arrived in Beiping City, the prefect of Peking gave Zhu Di a big gift. The bright red mark on the land deed attracted the attention of Zhu Di and Ma Sanbao.
