First Minister of Ming Dynasty Chapter 103

Hot recommendation:

In October of the fourteenth year, Tuotuo led an army of 400,000 to go south, known as a million, with flags thousands of miles, gongs and drums, and the prosperity of the masters was unprecedented!

At this moment, it seems that the Mongol Empire, which swept Europe and Asia and destroyed the country forty, is back again.

The heroes of the Central Plains were all trembling and uneasy.

Liu Futong, who was the first to raise the flag of uprising, was trapped in Henan by the Yuan army at this moment, trapped in a double siege by the Yuan army and the landlord's armed forces, and was struggling.

Xu Shouhui, the Emperor Tianwan, who has already been called the founding of the nation, was also unhappy. He failed in his attack on Hangzhou and the army strategist Peng Yingyu was killed in the battle.

There are very few people left in the first uprising.

Even Guo Zixing in Huaiyuan has become ill, and his health is getting worse every day.

At this moment, the eyes of the world fell on the land of Lianghuai.

If you can hold it, there is still a chance for the Red Scarf Uprising. If you can't hold it, the massive Red Scarf Uprising will just disappear.

Luo Guanzhong, carrying gold, carrying the letter of Cheng Wang Zhang Shicheng, shouldering the hope of the world, once again set foot in Chuzhou, and begged to see Zhu Yuanzhang.

At this moment, Old Zhu is dealing with autumn grain matters in Chuzhou, and the old friend is here again, see or not? Do you want to join forces with Zhang Shicheng?

Zhu Yuanzhang once again convened several civil servants to discuss countermeasures.

All were in attendance, including Jialu, the big guy was very heavy, and couldn't find a smile on his serious face. After all, hundreds of thousands of army, rolling in, that is a Mount Tai, hitting you, any flesh and blood body will be turned into dust.

This is not something people can stop!

"My lord, since everyone is unwilling to speak, let me just say that for Zhang Shicheng, we can only rent, never buy. If I want to say how to deal with Zhang Shicheng's request, it is that we give all support except help! "

All support except help is no matter what!

It took a long time for the big guy to react, did we understand it right?

Zhang Ximeng directly threw a crit, even if even Jia Lu sounds stupid, isn't this kid frightened? Why are you just talking nonsense?

"Tuotuo attacked Gaoyou, once let him succeed, Zhang Shicheng was pulled out, and the next one was us. The reason for the coldness of the lips and teeth is obvious." Jia Lu didn't go any further, but everyone could hear the accusation.

Zhang Ximeng smiled slightly, "Speaking of the truth, it is true that the lips are dead and the teeth are cold, but can we be considered as dependent on the lips and teeth between us and Zhang Shicheng? Is this person reliable? He had accepted Yuan Ting's surrender at the beginning of the army. He later rebelled against being a junior officer. Now he is crowned king in Gaoyou, facing the Yuan army to go south, and he is in danger. He sent envoys to beg us, really can be trusted? What if we send troops over and be sold by Zhang Shicheng?"

Cooperating to fight against the Yuan army is true, but what Zhang Ximeng said is also true. Is Zhang Shicheng a trustworthy person?

Both sides are pregnant with ghosts, and if they work together, can they contend against the Yuan army?

Maybe because of mutual suspicion and unable to cooperate tacitly, the Yuan army defeated each other and gave people food.

Zhu Yuanzhang thought over and over again, but he was not as hot as he was at first, but he still couldn't make up his mind.

"Mr.'s statement is reasonable, but now the Yuan army is so powerful that Zhang Shicheng can't hold it, and we will definitely be implicated..."

Zhang Ximeng smiled, "Lord, Zhang Shicheng was born as a private salt dealer. He has a flexible moral bottom line. He was condescending before and asked us to obey, but now he is praying for alliance with a heavy gift. He turned his face like a book. Such a person will not kill him unless he is forced to a corner. We promise to form an alliance. Instead, he will play tricks and scheming to push us to the front and cause trouble. If you don't form an alliance with him, let him hang out. On one side, forcing him to go all out to fight the Yuan army, maybe he will be able to burst out the will to survive and really defeat the Yuan army!"

After listening to Zhang Ximeng's words, Jia Lu felt incredible, unless it was a miracle, Zhang Shicheng had no chance.

Moreover, when analyzing the battle situation earlier, Zhu Yuanzhang had already set the policy of going all out to deal with the Yuan army, and Zhang Ximeng was the main advocate.

Now facing Zhang Shicheng's prayer, Zhang Ximeng's words are quite different and contradictory!

"My lord, what I mean is this, how to prepare for war, or how to prepare for war, and what strategy should be used. We and the Yuan Army will definitely have to separate life and death, but we will not cooperate with Zhang Shicheng."

Zhu Yuanzhang can't help but fall into contemplation. It stands to reason that if someone wants to cooperate with a strong enemy, it is naturally best to keep each other warm!

But Zhang Ximeng opposed cooperation and wanted to go it alone.

Fortunately, Zhang Ximeng has always expected things like a **** and made no mistakes, otherwise no one would listen to him.

What should I do?

Faced with this stalemate, Zhang Ximeng suddenly said: "Lord, how about this? Call Xu Da and the others to discuss together!"

Let the generals come over?

They are also worthy to talk about military affairs?

Li Shan raised his eyebrows, but hesitated and didn't say anything, so Zhang Ximeng made you toss, what should you do if you play it?

Lao Zhu thought for a while, and agreed. After all, Xu Da are confidants. It doesn't hurt to listen to their thoughts.

Not long after, thousands of households, headed by Tang He and Xu Da, came to the lobby and briefly talked about the situation of the discussion. It was up to their opinions.

Unexpectedly, Xu Da and Feng Guo used the two to stand up on their own initiative, "Superior, Mr. Zhang speaks highly, let him go!"

Lao Zhu asked calmly, "Why do you say that?"

Xu Da and Feng Guoyong took a look, and Xu Daxian said: "The superior, the Yuan army has too many soldiers and horses, how many soldiers and horses we sent, once we enter the Gaoyou realm, we will only hit the rocks with pebbles. Even if Zhang Shicheng is not wicked, we can do nothing. Yuan Army. On the contrary, only in Chuzhou, Hezhou, our own territory, can we decisively fight against Yuan Army! After all, my heart is in my heart!"

Feng Guoyong also nodded vigorously and said: "Please think about it, if Zhang Shicheng can hold Gaoyou, he will send a partial division to attack us. If Zhang Shicheng can't hold it, we will form an alliance with him, and Zhang Shicheng will retreat with the defeated soldiers. When we arrive in Chuzhou, shall we pick up or not?"

"If Zhang Shicheng is accepted, Yuan Bing will be chased and killed. If not, it will ruin the friendship of allies. Even if we take a step back, even if the Yuan Army defeats Zhang Shicheng, it may not necessarily come to beat us. There is really no way. We can still make peace with Yuan Ting and delay time! Yuan soldiers are many and powerful, but the stronger the man, the more he eats. Don't look at this time to take off the troops of the country, and to smooth the red scarf in one fell swoop, I dare say He is idiotic about dreams! Yuan Ting has enough food and salary, why wait until today?"

Feng Guo's words made everyone suddenly clear.

Xu Da also added: "Yuan Ting has assembled a lot of soldiers and horses from the Western Regions. I learned from Wu Datou that these soldiers and horses are afraid of the heat. It is now in October, and after March and April next year, they will not be able to continue fighting. , We must retreat to the north to escape the heat. If Zhang Shicheng can withstand two or three months, our pressure will not be so great. Just beware of the Yuan army in the south of the Yangtze River." Gu

The views of the two generals are not the same as those of the literati, and even Zhang Ximeng is very different from them. In their view, in order to delay time, it is possible to make peace with Yuan Ting.

This is very military.

Only focus on the battlefield, don't think about other things, anyway, how to get the advantage.

In their view, Zhang Shicheng can be pushed to the front and consumed by the Yuan army first. When necessary, you can even show favor with Yuan Ting, confuse the enemy, and buy time for yourself.

In the eyes of literati who do not stand between Chinese and thieves, these ideas are unscrupulous and deviant.

Sure enough, Wufu has no virtue!

But thinking about it, it might not be a solution.

Zhu Yuanzhang took longer to think about it before, and he did not immediately draw a conclusion.

Instead, he said: "Xu Da, Feng Guoyong, and Tang and you, when there is a major military situation in the future, you will also discuss it!"

The generals have gained a right to participate in decision-making. Although these thousands of households still don't understand what it means, they are in a good mood.

And among the civil servants, only Mr. Zhang agrees with them, so he naturally feels that Zhang Ximeng is more kind, and the husband is really amazing!

Although Zhu Yuanzhang didn't finalize the strategy here, no one paid any attention to Luo Guanzhong. He threw him aside and no one paid attention to him.

Is Luo Guanzhong, who lives in the inn, very sad?

On the contrary, his happy outsiders could not even imagine.

He had a huge sum of three thousand taels of gold in his hand. If Zhu Yuanzhang did not see him, he would naturally not be able to send it out, so he could only become his small vault.

Eat whatever you want, drink whatever you want.

Luo Guanzhong wrapped up a yard in one breath, and also found two girls to accompany him by the way.

Red sleeves add fragrance, writing books all night.

With fragrant tea and beauties, the night is quiet, and the writings are springing up, Luo Guanzhong only feels that all the art bubbles in his body have been sublimated. The teacher wrote "Water Margin", and he definitely surpassed the teacher and wrote an even more remarkable book!

Luo Guanzhong went out to the theater during the day, and he chased Wu's troupe, wherever he acted and saw, he regarded it as a show.

Then I went back to write a book at night, and I even joked with the beauties when I was free. Even if I live this life, even Platinum is envious and coveted!

What Cheng Wang, just treat him as non-existent.

It's just that there are some things, even if Zhang Ximeng can't predict it... "The superior, the big thing is not good, Zhao Jun used this thief to surrender Yuan Ting!"

"what?"

Everyone in Chuzhou was taken aback by the news, including Zhu Yuanzhang, who had been calculating the strength of the Yuan army and thinking about how to deal with it, but they had never thought that Zhao Junyong could betray the Red Scarf and join the Yuan Ting.

"Is the news reliable?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked.

Guo Ying explained: "Superior, this is a message sent by Zhao Junyong with an **** by his side. He said that Zhao Junyong is willing to serve as a forward for Yuan Jun, and his younger brother also led Timur to lead an army of 100,000. Behind him. They plan to divide the troops to attack the Chuzhou Red Scarf, that is, us!"

The Yuan army actually wanted to attack Chuzhou and Gaoyou at the same time!

Also first Timur is Tuotuo's younger brother ~www.mtlnovel.com~Yuan Ting's Yushi doctor.

He dominates 100,000 soldiers and horses, and his combat power is definitely not to be underestimated, and he can also echo Tuotuoyao and advance together.

The pressure it brings can be imagined.

Whether it was the civil servants who advocated an alliance with Zhang Shicheng, or Zhang Ximeng who advocated sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight, as well as a few generals, none of them expected that the Yuan army would be so big and directly divide the troops and advance!

Speaking of it, Zhu Yuanzhang developed too fast. He pursued the strategy of eliminating tycoons, which touched the interests of some big households. They desperately sent letters to the Yuan court, hoping that the court would send troops to destroy Zhu Yuanzhang.

When Tuotuo received the news, it coincided with the great momentum of the Yuan army, and Zhao Junyong surrendered, so he simply asked his brothers to send troops and eliminated Zhu Yuanzhang by the way.

It's just a walk and a pass, and it takes no effort.

In an instant, all the pressure fell on Zhu Yuanzhang.

What is a family leader is the one who makes the final decision!

Regardless of whether it is life or death, any consequences must be carried on his shoulders!

Zhu Yuanzhang, what should I do?

Snapped!

Lao Zhu slapped the table and stood up suddenly. He looked around, then laughed loudly, and said to everyone:

"In the battles that have always defeated the strong by the weak, all the strong are arrogant and complacent, thinking that they will win! Now that they are free from self-reliance and the strong, they have separated a team to destroy Chuzhou. He seeks his own death, and we will make him perfect!"

A few words filled with confidence by Lao Zhu immediately reversed the big guy's worries.

And his attitude makes the big guys feel excited, including Zhang Ximeng, this kind of ability to see opportunities in danger is the style of the founding father!

Zhang Ximeng immediately had a thought, "Master, since Zhao Jun has become Yuan Ting's running dog, we will kill this dog first and give the Yuan army a prestige!"
