Comprehensive martial arts: Summon Li Chungang and ask Wu Zetian for advice

Chapter 116 If you go, you will die, if you don’t go, you will die!
Facing such a situation at this moment, Ba Shiba, as a living Buddha, was a little helpless at the moment and sighed: "Your Majesty, we are now riding a tiger and we must find a way out as soon as possible."

"Not to mention the Ming Dynasty's compensation, even this cold winter is difficult to survive."

His words made Kublai Khan even more gloomy.

The hidden dangers in the past are all in the future and out of reach, but the cold winter in front of us is urgent.

Since ancient times, in the deep winter season, Dayuan people have had the habit of going south to cut grass and go for a walk in the autumn wind.

This is a custom formed because of Dayuan's strong nature, but more importantly, it is because Dayuan is located in the grassland, and it is difficult for the cattle and sheep to survive the harsh winter.

Therefore, they would go south to the Ming Dynasty border every year before winter to plunder food to survive the winter.

The Ming Dynasty's national power was weak before, so it was no problem for the Yuan Dynasty to fight against the autumn wind on the border of the Ming Dynasty.

But now the Ming Dynasty is no longer what it used to be, and the Yuan Dynasty has suffered losses in the Ming Dynasty. Wouldn't it be courting death to harass the Ming Dynasty's border at this time?

But if we don’t go south to catch the autumn wind, I’m afraid many people will freeze to death and starve to death in this cold winter.

In that case, not to mention the Ming Dynasty's attack on the Yuan Dynasty, the Yuan Dynasty would internally fall apart and the country would be devastated.

At that time, he, the Mongolian King, had reached his end.

It can be said that he is now in a dilemma, either starve to death, or take the initiative to attack the Ming Dynasty and avoid future troubles.

Although Dayuan does not have an advantage in terms of land and heavenly beings, in terms of military strength, Dayuan has an overwhelming advantage.

However, if you want to attack the Ming Dynasty, you must form alliances with other countries.They would not just watch the Ming Dynasty be occupied by them.

Thinking of this, his face was also full of melancholy. He sighed and said sadly: "Living Buddha, I am already thinking of a way. Now I just hope that the appetites of other countries will not be too big..."

As time passed slowly, the major vassal kings of the Ming Dynasty also received the decree to enter the palace to meet the saint.

It's just that Zhu Houzhao's tough attitude left them with not many choices.

They also know that they have a lot of troops and they are very local, so entering the palace is probably a grand banquet.

Once they enter the capital, I'm afraid they will never have the same power as before, which is equivalent to placing their lives on Zhu Houzhao's kindness.

But what if they knew?

Is it possible to just start a rebellion regardless of the situation?

The lessons learned from King Ning and King Pingnan were not clear enough?

King Ning and King Nanping rebelled because they had Dayuan's support. What about them?
Not to mention that Zhu Houzhao is now at the height of the sun, and there are three terrestrial gods. Wouldn't rebellion be courting death?
They had no choice from beginning to end!

……

Prince Lu's Mansion.

"That Zhu Houzhao is really hateful!"

"Aren't you afraid that we and other vassal kings will rise up to attack you?"

When King Lu looked at the information in front of him, he immediately became furious and said angrily: "Do you really think that he can be arrogant just because he is at the height of his power?"

"My lord, your majesty suddenly summoned me this time, I'm afraid you have bad intentions!" the confidant on the side said with a deep expression.

"Humph!"

When King Lu heard this, he immediately glared at the man and said angrily: "Do you need to say this? I am not a fool!"

"The most important thing now is to find a way to avoid this Hongmen Banquet."

"Your Majesty, why should you be so pessimistic? As long as the prince is still in the fief, everything will turn around!" said a trusted eunuch on the side.

"Are you planning to disobey the decree and push me into a pit of fire?"

After hearing this, King Lu became even more furious and shouted loudly: "If you disobey the decree today, I am afraid that the head on my neck will appear in front of Zhu Houzhao's desk tomorrow!" "What about that human swordsman?" Is it a waste of fame?"

"My lord, if you go, you will die, and if you don't, you will die!" The trusted eunuch on the side also frowned and said bitterly: "Do we still have a choice now?"

"Eh!"

After hearing this, King Lu couldn't help but sigh, his face was extremely melancholy, and he felt very depressed in his heart.

As rumored, they had no choice in the face of Zhu Houzhao's power.

Zhu Houzhao is no longer the incompetent emperor he was before. The entire Ming Dynasty has long been unknowingly in his hands.

It's just that the system of feudal lords is an ancestral system established when the Ming Dynasty was founded, and it can never be changed like this.

In that case, not only them but also their descendants will never be as powerful as they are now.

However, he also understood that Zhu Houzhao's power had reached its peak now, and resisting with his own ability was tantamount to blocking the car with his arms and destroying himself.

Thinking of this, he narrowed his eyes and said in a deep tone: "Go, pick one or two treasures from the treasure house, and come with me to Beijing to meet the Holy Spirit."

"There are also messages sent to other vassal kings to find out their voices."

After the eunuch left, he called his confidant general and gave him some instructions.

This time he had to be prepared. Although Zhu Houzhao was invincible, it was not that easy to cut down the vassal.

……

Prince An's Mansion.

When King An got the news, his face became even more angry, and he shouted angrily: "Damn it, damn it, Zhu Houzhao, you are going too far!"

Intimidate!
This is simply blatant intimidation!
What kind of family relationship in the ancestral temple is clearly a Hongmen banquet, trying to reduce the vassal status.

"Huh, since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, emperors who want to cut down their vassals have not had a good end."

King An's eyes were cold, his face was as gloomy as water, and he said in a stern tone: "Go and send a message to the other vassal kings. If you want to cut down the vassal, I, King An, will be the first to refuse."

"If Zhu Houzhao wants to cut down the vassal clan, we have to see if he has the strength."

"My lord, this..."

When the eunuch on the side heard this, his face suddenly turned pale and he was frightened.

You must know that if this word spreads, it will be the death penalty of beheading!

But King An smiled contemptuously and said nonchalantly: "Just do it. The anger in their hearts will not be less than mine."

"They used to do all kinds of evil and exploit the common people. Now that they are being reckoned with, they will not just sit back and die."

He sneered and said, although he was apprehensive about this Hongmen Banquet, he was not that afraid.

Although King Ning and King Pingnan met a disastrous end, as long as they united, it would be enough to make Zhu Houzhao use the rat weapon.

In this way, they would also have the capital to negotiate with Zhu Houzhao, and in that case everything would still turn around.

If Zhu Houzhao insisted on cutting down the vassal vassal, they would not mind appointing a new emperor to represent their interests and recreate the battle of Jingnan in the past.

The actions of King Lu and King An were also a reflection of other vassal kings.

In order to protect their interests as vassal kings, they almost unanimously united.

They may have been fighting each other before, but now they have a common enemy, and that is Zhu Houzhao.
