After occupying Tongzhou and letting the soldiers vent their anger, Yehedodo left behind five hundred cavalry to guard the prisoners and the city, and he led a brigade to chase the canal.

Since all the soldiers and horses in the capital were transferred to the Shenjing City, the Yuan soldiers were not blocked in pursuit, and even a few county towns, some soldiers and horses did not move rashly.

After all, the will to move the capital has been spread, and officials either cannot escape, or they have ulterior motives, so how dare they stop the cavalry of the Yuan Dynasty?

As a result, Ye Heduoduo became much bolder and faster. He only took five days to catch up with Texas.

At this time, Emperor Chongxing's imperial carriage and ministers who fled south were on the canal a hundred miles away.

Emperor Chongxing, who went south, did not know the situation behind him. After all, those who escaped with him and those who did not understand military affairs naturally would not inquire about the situation.

However, the cunning Chu Zhongping has been paying attention to the war, so he received the news in advance.

"Everyone, the Yuan Dynasty cavalry appeared a hundred miles behind him!"

Knowing that the Yuan Dynasty cavalry was chasing, Chu Zhongping immediately summoned several backbone members of the Zhejiang Party to discuss countermeasures.

"Gei Master, the Yuan soldiers are really catching up with you, how could it be so fast?"

Yan Mingze, the assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice, asked nervously.

The other officials also looked at Chu Zhongping, with some unbelievable and a little scared look in their eyes.

These people have always believed that they were moving south very quickly, and logically speaking, the Yuan soldiers should not catch up.

"Will I lie to you?"

Chu Zhongping spoke coldly? His expression was also a little bad.

"What should I do?" Yan Mingze spoke again? He looked very nervous because the Yuan soldiers arrived? They were about to become prisoners.

"Gei Master? Should report to the emperor immediately and let the escort army prepare to face the enemy!"

An official made a suggestion, but the rest? But he looked at him with a fool's eyes.

Because of the army that protected the south? Although there were thousands, no one thought that these people could block the cavalry of the Yuan Dynasty.

"Can the army that protects the emperor block the Yuan soldiers?"

Chu Zhongping asked again? Then he changed the subject: "I'm looking for you guys? It's because they are all colleagues, so I'll help you!"

When the rest of the officials heard Chu Zhongping say this, their eyes lit up.

Yan Mingze even asked directly: "Gei, you have a way!"

"The Yuan Dynasty cavalry? They came for the brigade. As long as we disguise themselves, we will disguise ourselves as soon as we can get off the boat tonight and go south by land? We should be able to escape this military disaster!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the other officials immediately understood? One by one, they all showed relief expressions.

But the official who spoke before? There was still a bit of loyalty: "Gei Master? Did you notify the emperor!"

As soon as the words were finished, the other officials looked at the official with a fool's eyes again.

There are very few fools here who know that if they inform Emperor Chongxing, the matter will not be kept secret.

Without Emperor Chongxing as bait with the team of troops, the chances of these people escaping were much lower.

As a result, the other officials naturally did not want to do so. After all, these Zhejiang parties are selfish and never do good things.

The reason why no one refutes is that they often shout slogans of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism, and some words that are difficult to say publicly.

"The emperor should have his own plans, so we don't have to worry!"

After a while, Chu Zhongping responded.

It made the officials breathe a sigh of relief.

The person who spoke also knew that the words just now had been taboo, and did not refute them, and finally revealed this.

At this time, Yan Mingze spoke again: "Gei Master, the lower official has a lot of family members and many items. If you get off the boat at night, it will be very inconvenient. Should you find a reason to get off the boat during the day?"

As soon as Yan Mingze finished speaking, officials immediately agreed. After all, these people are all backbone of the Zhejiang Party, each of them has many family members and a lot of property.

But this request made Chu Zhongping extremely angry and cursed himself in his heart. A group of idiots were still thinking about money at this time. If I hadn't used you, how could I care about your life or death...

The Zhejiang Party is a big party and there are also internal struggles, so Chu Zhongping found a few backbone to go with him.

After all, if all these people are finished, he will go south alone, which is like a commander who is alone, and will soon lose his power and be replaced by others.

"At this time, I still think so much, don't you want your life anymore!"

He said coldly, and then changed the subject: "You can leave with your legitimate son in your family. As for the others, let them leave it to fate!"

Chu Zhongping's words calmed down several officials and never dared to mention this matter again. After all, they were very smart and could figure out many things.

When night fell, several small boats quietly docked, and then more than twenty black shadows got off the boat and disappeared quickly.

However, not only Chu Zhongping, the smart people who found the pursuit, were secretly disembarked in other parts of the canal.

These people are light and simple, and are very careful, afraid of disturbing others. It seems that they are the same as Chu Zhongping, wanting Emperor Chongxing and the large group of troops to attract the attention of the Yuan Dynasty.

Since there were not many people leaving and no one noticed any abnormality, the next morning, Emperor Chongxing and others continued to go south.

But at noon, when Yehedodo led the cavalry to catch up, the monarch and ministers who fled south were completely stunned.

"What, Yuan soldiers are catching up!"

On a large ship, Emperor Chongxing asked in surprise, his face was extremely ugly and he was a little scared.

"Emperor, Yuan Dynasty cavalry, will arrive soon. You can make an idea, what should I do!"

Xiao Dezi asked in a panic, looking very nervous.

"I, I..."

What could Emperor Chongxing have to do? After a long time, he spoke: "Call the ministers and discuss countermeasures!"

Emperor Chongxing's answer almost made Xiao Dezi vomit blood, because after the Yuan Dynasty cavalry caught up, the canal was completely in chaos.

"emperor……"

"Swoosh swish swish..."

Just as I was about to say something, there were sounds of breaking through the air, and more than a dozen arrows shot into the cabin.

"Protect the Emperor!"

After swallowing the words from his mouth, Xiao Dezi ran a few steps and came to Emperor Chongxing.

The guards on the boat also surrounded them and formed a human wall.

But the situation was very dangerous, because the boat made by Emperor Chongxing was the largest on the canal, and there was a dragon flag hanging on it, which naturally became the main target of the cavalry of the Yuan Dynasty.

Waves of arrow rain flew in, and many people died in the cabin soon.

On both sides of the canal, Yehedodo was very excited to command the attack, but the war horses could not enter the water, and the only effective method was bows and arrows.

Even so, the Ganchao army, who was accompanying the guards, had no strength to fight back. After all, the destruction of the Beijing camp and the imperial court moved the capital to flee south, which left these troops with no morale left.

The fleet on the canal was completely in chaos. With the attack of the Yuan Dynasty, everyone rushed to escape. Many ships collided and leaked and sank.

Because Emperor Chongxing's boat was too obvious and was taken care of by the Yuan Dynasty, the chaos in that area became even more serious.

In a panic, several ships crashed into Emperor Chongxing's boat one after another, causing the ship to gradually sink.

A few days later, a news spread all over the world. On November 22, the first year of Chongxing, Emperor Chongxing, who was fleeing south, was chased by Yuan Dynasty cavalry and fell into the water and died.

Except for a small number of civil and military officials who followed the south, who died in the canal, the rest surrendered to the Yuan Dynasty.

On the third day of December, hundreds of warships appeared on the sea surface of Hangzhou Bay.

The ship sailed directly into the navy's headquarters, and then the army of kings heading north came down from the ship.

Since meeting with the people from the Yongning Marquis' Mansion, He Yuansheng withdrew his troops to return south the next day.

After all, the Yuan Dynasty's troops retreated ten miles away and were not in battle, and it was meaningless to continue to stay.

However, shortly after we got ashore, the army had not been resettled, and the spies sent a message.

After seeing it, He Yuansheng's face changed slightly and he immediately returned to Hangzhou City.

"Congratulations to the Marquis for returning safely!"

In the city, Chen Rui rushed to the inn and met He Yuansheng.

"How is the situation in Nanjing?"

Emperor Chongxing died in the canal, and He Yuansheng received the news immediately, but at that time he was on the sea and naturally had no time to take care of him.

However, the death of Emperor Chongxing retained the last bit of face for the Dagan Dynasty royal family, so the Gan Dynasty would not be completely finished.

Emperor Yongchang, Xiao Jing and others who fled south in advance immediately saw the opportunity and rushed to Nanjing as soon as possible to prepare for restoration and wanted to ascend the throne again.

However, Zhao Wenyu and Chu Zhongping and other court officials who escaped strongly opposed this matter and were ready to establish a new king.

This made Emperor Yongchang anxious. After all, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If he cannot ascend to the throne again, his Supreme Emperor will completely become a past tense.

But the current Emperor Yongchang has no soldiers or power in his hands, and he cannot resist the court officials.

There was no other way, and he was stunned and actually issued an order to lead Gao Jinzhong to lead his troops eastward to Nanjing.

This move made Chu Zhongping and other Zhejiang Party officials anxious. They all knew what Gao Jinzhong was and naturally wanted to stop this.

So before He Yuansheng came ashore, the troops from the five southeastern provinces had already begun to be mobilized, with the obvious intention, that is, not to allow Gao Jinzhong to come to Nanjing.

"The situation in Nanjing is very chaotic. The Supreme Emperor and the Zhejiang Party officials refused to give in to each other. It was Gao Jinzhong's side. I don't know what the reason is that they have not yet advanced eastward."

Since Emperor Yongchang and the court officials came south, Chen Rui has been paying attention to the situation in Nanjing, so he knows it very much.

"It seems that I want to wait for the price!"

He Yuansheng said disdainfully, and began to think about what he wanted to do.

Now He Yuansheng has more than 100,000 troops in his hands. He can be said to be a vital figure and can naturally affect the situation.

Therefore, when discussing the establishment of a new king, he must get involved in order to gain more rights.

The only thing that worries him was that Emperor Chongxing or the Zhejiang Party were his enemies.

They arrived in Nanjing so quickly, and their minds were very clear, just to set the throne before He Yuansheng came back.
