Through Yitian: Mingzun Zhang Wuji

Chapter 495 How can I know if Sai Weng loses his horse?

Hearing that Yang Xiao kicked the "ball" to Wudang.Zhang Wuji then asked: "Then what did my teacher say?"

Yang Xiao replied: "After seeing Xu Shouhui's memorabilia and his subordinates' autographed letters, Zhang Zhenren said, 'First the public and then the private'. The old man said that since Chen Youliang has taken refuge in Xu Shouhui's command, and he is against the great cause of the Yuan Dynasty. You have merit. If you kill him at this time, I'm afraid it will chill the hearts of righteous people in the world."

"So Zhang Zhenren and Song Daxia planned to put public affairs first after discussing with Song Daxia, so he allowed Chen Youliang to 'take the blame and make meritorious service'. Although Chen Youliang was the chief culprit of Song Qingshu's death, he was somewhat to blame. If Chen Youliang really changed his past, he would really help in the future The rebel army expelled the Tartars, this is a righteous act for the country and the people, and Song Qingshu's blood debt can be set aside."

"So we followed Zhenren Zhang's instructions and truthfully passed the news to Xu Shouhui. Since then, Chen Youliang has also become a member of our rebel army."

Zhang Wuji asked: "Then when did Xu Shouhui die?"

Yang Xiao continued: "It was about a year ago. At that time, Xu Shouhui had already grown his wings. Although Xu Shouhui had already had the heart of disobedience and called himself Emperor Tianwan, he only called himself the Emperor in private. But just before his death, Within a month, he blatantly proclaimed himself emperor and announced that he would leave our control."

"Oh? Didn't expect him to be so impatient and want to rebel?" Zhang Wuji sneered.

Yang Xiao nodded and continued: "Yes. However, Xu Shouhui has also used our name to recruit soldiers over the years. He announced that he would break away from Mingzun's control and establish himself as emperor, which also caused dissatisfaction among many people. And Chen Youliang took advantage of everyone's respect for him. Dissatisfied, Xu Shouhui was trapped and killed in Caishiji. After that, Chen Youliang replaced Xu Shouhui and inherited his foundation."

Zhang Wuji couldn't figure it out a bit, so he asked: "Yang Zuoshi, I don't understand something. Although Chen Youliang can murder Xu Shouhui, how can he stabilize the inside of the regime? At least I know Zhang Dingbian, Zhao Pu If you win, you won’t obey him so easily.”

Yang Xiao smiled wryly after hearing the words and said, "This is because Chen Youliang has our support."

"Ah!?" Zhang Wuji was surprised, "What? We actually support him? What's going on? What happened during my absence?"

Yang Xiao replied: "That's right. After Xu Shouhui's death, the internal instability of the Tianwan army was indeed caused. But Chen Youliang wrote a letter to us and declared that he was trying to set things right, and that Xu Shouhui was a traitor. .”

"After discussing this matter, we decided to accept Chen Youliang's appointment as a minister. First, if Tianwan's regime is in chaos, it will be disadvantageous for the rebels in the south. At least the Dayuan Liang King who is rooted in Yunnan and Guizhou is eyeing Jiangnan. If Tianwan is in chaos at this time If the foundation is laid, it will only benefit Zhu Yuanzhang and Yuan Liang Wang."

"Secondly, Chen Youliang is willing to provide us with a large amount of food, grass and military equipment, and treat us as the master. After discussing with Mrs. Liu, Mrs. Zhu, and the Eagle King, I feel that the advantages of accepting Chen Youliang's surrender outweigh the disadvantages. So we made a deal with Chen Youliang. An imperial edict to 'call security'."

"It is written in the edict that Chen Youliang was granted the title of King of Hanyang. He was in charge of Xu Shouhui's old troops. After Chen Youliang received our canonization, he also gave us a large amount of military equipment and food in a face-saving manner. He also ceded the border of Xiangzhou where Wudang Mountain is located. give us the city."

After Zhang Wuji heard the words, he nodded and said: "Yes! So, this kid Chen Youliang knows the current affairs."

Yang Xiao smiled wryly again, and he said: "It would be great if this kid can keep up with current affairs. At first, Chen Youliang really put Feng Mingzun as the first priority, and he was quite attentive to us. But then rumors of Meng Yuan spread. "

"At this time, Chen Youliang took the opportunity to turn against him. Not only did he fight without declaring it, but he sent troops to occupy the Xiangzhou land ceded to us before, cutting off our escape route to the south. He also opened his eyes for Meng Yuan, saying that we murdered Ming Dynasty. Honor, set up another puppet."

"And Zhu Niangniang is indeed a fake, and we don't have the invincible strength of the leader. Later, we were defeated by Wang Baobao and Tuotuo, and even lost the capital Bianliang. Even if this matter is fake, people in the world It became real in my eyes.”

"So Chen Youliang took the opportunity to proclaim himself emperor, named 'Big Han'. He also bewitched the soldiers who had been loyal to Mingzun to attack us and Zhu Yuanzhang. Because in his lies, Mingzun had already been murdered by us."

"He inherited the throne of Emperor Mingzun and took over the banner of anti-Yuan. It was the destiny of heaven. And we 'murdered' Mingzun is an unforgivable crime. And Zhu Yuanzhang knew that Mingzun was a fake and returned the order of the emperor, and it was Sima Zhaozhi who asked the Quartet Heart. Under the banner of avenging Mingzun, he has gathered many capable and righteous men under his command. Now he is the biggest prince in the world."

Zhang Wuji nodded after listening.

Although Chen Youliang's strength has reached the level where he can wrestle with Meng Yuan, Zhang Wuji also noticed a key point.

That is, Chen Youliang used his fame to attack all kinds of rebels in the name of avenging Mingzun and punishing fake Mingzun to expand his power.

In this way, many soldiers under Chen Youliang's command still recognized Ming Zun, and even regarded Zhang Wuji as their spiritual pillar.

Zhang Wuji now has his own ideas, since the soldiers under Chen Youliang still respect him.Well, as long as I show up in front of these soldiers and clarify all the facts, maybe these soldiers will turn against him.He can even directly incorporate Chen Youliang's forces for his own use.

After much deliberation, Zhang Wuji felt that this ready-made "peach" would not be picked in vain.If he can take down Chen Youliang's 60 troops, and then annex Zhu Yuanzhang and destroy Zhang Shicheng, then he can directly face south and north, using the Yangtze River, Han River, and Huai River as barriers to fight against Meng Yuan.

Now Chen Youliang proclaims himself emperor, Zhu Yuanzhang coerces the emperor to make the princes, Zhang Shicheng is not on his side.

Now he has legitimate excuses for all the princes in the south of the Yangtze River.

Right now is the best opportunity to eliminate them, unify half of the south of the Yangtze River, and completely integrate the rebel forces.At that time, he will lead his people to gather strength for the Northern Expedition, and Fan Yao will send troops from Xiliang to the pass.Attacked from both sides, Meng Yuan can be broken in no time.

Now Zhang Wuji is sighing with emotion, it really is "a blessing in disguise will be a blessing in disguise".Although he lost Bianliang, he felt a little distressed when he lost his basic disk.But the closest relatives are safe and sound.

And the princes from all walks of life committed suicide, which gave him an excuse to eradicate them.And talents like Liu Bowen and Lu Chang did not follow Zhu Yuanzhang because of the butterfly effect of Tuotuo who was not dismissed.

Today is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and there are virtues without a master.

I went to Persia for a walk, but I didn't expect to have so many unexpected gains.
