At this time, Gu Baichuan appeared on the deck, saw where Zhong Jinwei was, and went over to submit a confession: "Master Hou, those two traitors have revealed everything about the matter, and it's all in the confession."
Zhong Jinwei was the first to call out the word "traitor". Everyone felt it was appropriate and unconsciously used this term.
Zhong Jinwei took the confession from Gu Baichuan and saw that it was quite thick. He couldn't help but smile and said: "He has done a lot of bad things!"
After he finished speaking, he went into the cabin to read the confession. It was impossible to read it on the deck. Although the wind was not strong, it was still at sea. If the confession was accidentally blown into the sea, it would be troublesome.
Most of Zhong Jinwei's guards also followed the cabin, but the fourth child was not there. With Zhong Jinwei's permission, he ran to find Zhang Xianzhong.
Gu Baichuan stood not far in front of Zhong Jinwei, watching Marquis Zhongxing read the confession.
To be honest, when he knew what these traitors had done, he gritted his teeth with hatred. Many things happened at the hands of these traitors. If he had relied solely on Jianlu, the situation would have been such a big one.
Gu Baichuan thought that Zhong Jinwei would have the same emotional changes as him after reading these confessions. He also prepared his words to persuade Marquis Zhongxing that it was not worth getting angry with these traitors, and that he could just kill them with a knife.
Unexpectedly, Zhong Jinwei smiled when he looked at the confession. This made Gu Baichuan a little surprised. He didn't know how Zhongxing Hou could laugh?
After Zhong Jinwei read everything, he closed the confession, looked up at Gu Baichuan and laughed, which made Gu Baichuan puzzled.
When the other guards saw him, they were also a little curious. They gathered around and looked at Zhong Jinwei, wondering if the Marquis was angry and laughing.
At this time, Lu Xiangsheng just finished his inspection and returned to the ship where Zhong Jinwei was in a depressed mood.
Zhong Jinwei happened to see Lu Xiangsheng walking into the hatch, and immediately laughed and said: "Jiutai, it's so good of you to come. I will write a memorial to thank you!"
Not only were Zhong Jinwei's guards surprised, but the person involved, Lu Xiangsheng, was also looking at Zhong Jinwei in surprise. What happened to Zhongxing Hou? He looked quite normal. No signs of mental illness were found?
Zhong Jinwei was immersed in his own thoughts, and it was only then that he noticed the surprised expressions on Lu Xiangsheng and others' faces, and then he understood. He smiled and said to Lu Xiangsheng: "Let's go to the dock, I have something to say to the soldiers.
"
After he finished speaking, he walked out of the cabin door first. When he arrived at the door, he found that Lu Xiangsheng was still there, so he urged: "Why are you standing there, hurry up and leave."
Zhong Jinwei stepped off the ship with a smile on his face and headed towards the center of the dock where the Ming army was located.
When he reached the middle, he found a high place to stand, then looked up and around.
Denglai Mingjun saw Zhongxing Hou walking all the way, and some people were already paying attention. But more people lowered their heads in depression and did not see Zhong Jinwei coming among them.
Zhong Jinwei took in the situation all around him, then took a full breath and said loudly: "The soldiers of Denglai..."
When Gu Baichuan was on the ship, he had been ordered by Zhong Jinwei to speak, so he had arranged for a row of soldiers with loud voices to stand under Zhong Jinwei and spread Zhong Jinwei's words far away.
As soon as Denglai Mingjun heard someone talking, he looked up and saw that it was Marquis Zhongxing who had rescued them. He didn't know what he wanted to do, so he temporarily forgot the grief in his heart and paid attention to Marquis Zhongxing.
"You are all heroes. The Ming Dynasty is proud of you. I will write a memorial to the emperor on your behalf and ask for your credit!"
As soon as Zhong Jinwei said these words, the jaws of the people around him dropped. Fortunately, the soldiers who were transmitting the message were used to this job, and it did not affect their transmission.
At this time, everyone was stunned. Maybe there was something wrong with Hou Zhongxing's brain, or he was extremely dissatisfied with the defeat and said something ironic.
No matter what, Zhong Jinwei's words attracted everyone's attention.
"I know what I'm talking about now. Don't worry, my mind is very clear and there is nothing wrong with me."
When the soldiers of the Ming army heard Zhong Jinwei express their suspicions, they couldn't help but smile a little sheepishly. Unknowingly, the sad and depressed atmosphere began to weaken.
Some who wanted to hear Marquis Zhongxing speak with their own ears moved forward, leading others to move together, and moved closer with Zhong Jinwei as the center.
"Why should I say that you are heroes and ask for credit for you?"
After Zhong Jinwei finished speaking, he saw a trace of doubt in everyone's eyes and looked at him without blinking. He continued: "Because Jianlu told me that they are afraid of you. Yes, you heard it right.
Jianlu is afraid of you and the power you will show under the leadership of Lu Zhongcheng."
"I'm telling you, Jianlu tried his best to destroy you because of fear, but they didn't succeed!"
Everyone's curiosity was aroused by Zhong Jinwei. How could Jianlu tell Marquis Zhongxing these things?
"According to the traitor's confession, Jianlu had already started his plan to achieve his goal. First, he bribed General Zu Dalue, and then dispatched the Four Jurchen Banners, the Eight Mongolian Banners, and more than half of the Jianlu's troops participated, just to eliminate them.
you."
"There are traitors inside and a powerful Jianlu army outside, setting up a huge trap. Who has ever experienced this kind of treatment, and which army has enjoyed this treatment? Only you, because you made the Jianlu soldiers afraid!"
Zhong Jinwei's words made Denglai Mingjun slowly raise his chest, with a trace of pride on his face.
"But what Jianlu didn't expect was that under the leadership of Lu Zhongcheng, you fought bravely against the enemy, resisted to the death, and would rather die in battle than surrender. Jianlu did not leave you all behind despite all his efforts."
When Zhong Jinwei said this, he slowly looked around, staring at the Ming army soldiers in front of him, and secretly sighed in his heart, they are all good men of the Ming Dynasty.
"I don't deny that many of our comrades have died in the battle. However, you are still standing here and will continue to fight under the leadership of Lu Zhongcheng. As long as you are here, the revenge of our comrades will eventually be avenged. As long as you continue
Fighting, Jianlu will continue to be afraid and trembling! They have tried their best this time but failed, will there be another chance to succeed in the future? "
Zhong Jinwei's speech made the soldiers feel as if they had not lost the battle, but on the contrary, they had won a battle. They never thought that their power was so powerful that they had to force Jianlu to mobilize most of his troops.
Trying hard to surround and annihilate them.
"I, Zhong Jinwei, Marquis of Zhongxing of the Ming Dynasty, here represent the imperial court and the people of the Ming Dynasty to pay tribute to you, the heroes of the Ming Dynasty."
After Zhong Jinwei finished speaking, he solemnly raised his hands in a new military salute.
No need to explain, all Denglai soldiers knew what that expression meant. Everyone looked at Zhong Jinwei solemnly. Some young soldiers knelt down on one knee first, straightened their upper bodies, and shouted loudly: "War!
!”
Then more and more soldiers knelt down and shouted "fight!"
In the end, except for the group of soldiers who carried the message, everyone, including Lu Xiangsheng, knelt down on one knee, faced Zhong Jinwei, and shouted loudly: "Fight!"
At this moment, a passion surged in Zhong Jinwei's chest. He raised his arms and shouted: "The Ming Dynasty will be victorious!"
