First Minister of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 112: Stand up, don't kneel

Hot recommendation:

It's not that Zhang Ximeng didn't want to intervene, because he really didn't have the strength.

The 400,000 yuan army came over the sky, unstoppable and unmatched.

Tutuo defeated Zhang Shicheng's soldiers and horses one after another, and then a large army besieged the city. At the same time, they swept the surrounding areas, and Yancheng, Xinghua, and Taizhou fell one after another.

Zhang Shicheng has been compressed to Gaoyou City, and his life is hanging by a thread.

The Majesty King Cheng was desperate, so he decided to surrender.

That's right, Zhang Shicheng surrendered!

He secretly dispatched an envoy, with a personal letter, to see Tutuo.

Zhang Shicheng's attitude is extremely humble. As long as the Yuan court can give him a way of life, he is willing to submit to the court, surrender the city, and act as the court's forward to help kill the Red Scarf Army.

All in all, as long as Tuotuo Dad nodded, Zhang Shicheng is your good son.

Zhang Shicheng at this time perfectly interprets how desperate a person in despair should be!

Ten thousand against four hundred thousand!

One city fights the world!

How is it possible to win?

Please beg the court, give me a chance to be a dog!

Facing this letter, if he nodded, Gaoyou City would be broken in no time, and Zhang Shicheng would surrender. Not surprisingly, he would be like Chahan Timur, Li Siqi and others, as the executioner of the Red Turban Army.

Zhu Jiajun, who is next to him, will become the first victim.

The overall situation of the world, the rise and fall of the dynasty, and the historical trend all fall between the thought of freedom at this moment... In the face of this letter of surrender, the civil and military prime minister said lightly, "No surrender!"

Not only is it not allowed to surrender, Tuotuo added, "When the city is broken, there will be all the massacres, not one left!"

The messenger returned to Gaoyou in embarrassment with a free answer.

How desperate it is to not even surrender!

Zhang Shicheng was not a tenacious person as Zhang Ximeng had expected, but he was not allowed to surrender. The last way was broken and he had to die!

In that case, there is only one living to death!

Our last name is Zhang!

Zhang Shicheng didn't conceal it. He directly told the soldiers and people in the city about his attempt to surrender, and he also told the big guys Yuan Jun's answer.

"Guys, brethren! It's not that Zhang Shicheng is the big guy! It is Yuan Ting deceived too much! If I cut off Zhang Shicheng's head, I can get a life for the big guy, I will screw my head off now!"

Zhang Shicheng was full of grief and indignation, "Yuan Tanzi is not a human! They are determined to slaughter the city and kill all of us! Nothing else, stretch your head and shrink your head, please follow Zhang Shicheng to death!"

Zhang Shicheng in desperate situation broke out completely.

Similarly, the military and civilians in Gaoyou were also angered.

These people, like weeds, don't care who is the master of Gaoyou City. Even if the Yuan army comes and the crush is a little bit harder, they can accept it. Anyway, they are lingering and panting!

But who could have expected that someone would not accept the surrender and just want to kill everyone!

In that case, we will fight you to the end!

The grass is weak, but also tenacious. The wildfire can't burn clean, let alone take it off!

"Fight! Fight with Tanzi!"

"I don't know who is dead and who is alive! Fight to the end with Yuan Danzi!"

"Cheng Wang, don't be afraid, we will definitely win!"

...

The desperate Gaoyou, unprecedented unity, the army and the people, put everything aside, and went all out.

Zhang Shicheng finally breathed a sigh of relief. Who would have thought that he would rely on Tutuo's help to stabilize the morale of the army.

Immediately in the following days, the Yuan army raided the city frantically, and Zhang Shicheng personally went to the city to supervise the battle. The "eighteen poles" who had lifted things with him at the beginning also went to the city to supervise the battle. Gaoyou soldiers and civilians desperately resisted Yuan Ting's offensive.

For days of fighting, corpses piled up in the city, and the canal next to it was stained red with blood.

Facts have proved that no matter how powerful an army is, when faced with a city with a united mind, it will be passive and passive.

Gaoyou City survived the initial attack in the storm!

Tutuo wasn't a fool either. He soon realized that the hope of conquering Gaoyou in one fell swoop had been shattered, the war had entered a war of attrition, and it had become a competition of internal forces!

It depends on who can't hold it first!

At this moment, Tutuo seemed to hesitate a little. If he agreed to Zhang Shicheng's surrender, would it be easier?

This thing is ironic, Tuotuo is recognized as an all-rounder in civil and military, with first-class ability and character.

The army was overwhelmed, and Zhang Shicheng had nowhere to go and surrendered to Yuan Ting. This was a matter of course. As long as a normal person directly agrees, everything will be over, so why bother!

Even if Zhang Shicheng pretends to surrender, he can hold him tight first.

Why did Tuotuo lose his wits, have to kill Zhang Shicheng, and it is not enough to kill one Zhang Shicheng, and even threaten to slaughter the city. This is because it is too easy to attack the city. Do you want to find excitement for yourself?

Even after the resumption, people only found two reasons. First, Zhang Shicheng had surrendered to Yuan Ting in the early days, but he rebelled after surrendering. His character was worrying and he was not worthy of trust.

Secondly, he thinks he must win. In order to deter the Red Scarf, he intends to slaughter Gaoyou, deter the world with hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians, and completely suppress the momentum of the Red Scarf.

In fact, these two reasons are very pale, because these two statements are analyzing why Tuo Tuo did this, but they didn't make it clear why Tuo Tuo had to do it.

Faced with the overwhelming tide, the people in it have little choice. Even if you are the commander of the three armies and the prime minister of a country, there is not much leeway to escape.

Because he did not dare to accept Zhang Shicheng's surrender!

The governor of the world, carrying the king's command to go south...to get rid of must have a hearty and hearty saint, only in this way can he explain to the emperor and the people of the world, and can suppress those who oppose him.

The victory is not big enough, and the record is not brilliant enough.

He will all be labeled as laborious.

If he accepts Zhang Shicheng's surrender, and Zhang Shicheng rebels again, a serious crime of raising the bandits' self-respect and plotting wrongdoing will fall on him.

In the Yuan Court, those political opponents of Tutuo have already sharpened their swords, and they must attack Tutuo from any angle.

Sitting in a position to escape, even the emperor in most of them didn't trust him.

Tuotuo rode on the tiger's back and had no choice. Only victory and cruelty could suppress those messy sounds. It takes hundreds of thousands of heads to reshape the majesty of the prime minister.

The enemy in front of him is Zhang Shicheng, and the opponent behind him is Pingzhang Zhengshi Hama, countless Mongolian dignitaries, and the emperor on the dragon chair!

The situation of getting rid of it was finally figured out after Zhang Ximeng obtained the record of the Metropolitan Yuan Ting and conducted a comprehensive review.

The last hope of this great Yuan, the choice is really too few.

After being frustrated by directly attacking Gaoyou, Tuotuo had to change his tactics. After swept around Gaoyou, he immediately set his sights on a county seat.

That is Liuhe!

This is a very inconspicuous small city. Tuotuo didn't take it seriously. Which of Yancheng, Xinghua, Taizhou is not bigger than Liuhe? None of these cities could stop the Yuan army's soldiers, let alone the small Liuhe.

Tutuo knew that the Six Mergers were not under Zhang Shicheng's control, but under the control of a man named Zhu Yuanzhang.

Zhu Yuanzhang?

never heard of that!

There is no such person at all.

There are a lot of Red Scarf Thieves who are kings in the two-Huai area. Peng Da, Zhao Junyong, Zhang Shicheng, and Marshal are even more of a feather, more than a certain brand of potato chips...

In front of so many powerful predecessors, Zhu Yuanzhang only dared to claim to be the ambassador of the town.

What an official position, what a military power this is!

Not surprisingly, Tuotuo underestimated Zhu Yuanzhang.

He dispatched two Mongolian households to attack Liuhe, intending to take Liuhe lightly as soon as he passed by, completely sweeping away all the cities outside Gaoyou, and then concentrated his forces to besiege Gaoyou.

Capture and kill Zhang Shicheng, right in front of you!

It was Tutuo's younger brother who was in charge of attacking Liuhe, also Timur.

As brothers, the elder brother was the prime minister and the younger brother was the doctor of the censor. The two brothers cooperated tacitly and really maintained a rare peaceful time.

First Timur's highlights happened to Liu Futong.

After the rise of the Central Plains Red Scarf Army, Timur was appointed by his elder brother to lead the army to kill Liu Futong... Everything went well at first, with successive victories, but suddenly Timur was defeated before Timur, and he was very defeated. awful.

The reason is simple. The previous record was also played by Timur's vanguard general Gong Buban. As a result, in a raid, Gong Buban was killed by the Red Scarf, and then Timur was frightened. In the big defeat, all the recovered cities were thrown to Liu Futong.

If you stop here, that's all. You can Thuotuo's partial love to his younger brother, and he has sent a lot of soldiers and horses, a total of 300,000 people, and continue to fight Liu Futong decisively.

A funny scene appeared. Liu Futong made a tentative night attack, but it caused a mutiny in the barracks of 300,000 people, and Timur was so scared that he ran away.

Made the same mistake twice!

The unknown Yuan army trampled on each other, 300,000 people, and only 10,000 were left, and they retreated in a hurry.

The Battle of Shahe was also a turning point in the early Red Turban Army. After this battle, Liu Futong leaned against the Dabie Mountains and fought against the Yuan Army with the Yellow River and Ruhe as the defensive line.

Encouraged by this, the Red Turban army from various places has sprung up like bamboo shoots after a rain... Sesame Li, Bu Wangsan, Meng Haima, and Guo Zixing are all figures that emerged during this period.

As a criminal minister, Timur was not beheaded because of the escape from the asylum. However, his failure had a great impact, and even affected the current battle of Gaoyou.

Why did Tuotuo want to mobilize the soldiers and horses of the Western Regions all the way? It's not that good brothers have lost all the elite of Yuan Ting, and can only transfer troops from the distant Western Regions.

But even so, Tuotuo is still very good to his younger brother, and he still grants military power.

Not long ago, Timur also supervised the soldiers behind Zhao Junyong and tried to invade Chuzhou.

But Zhao Jun was defeated at once.

Obviously 20,000 people, such a big tuft, are in front of you, why are they gone?

Timur was so scared that he didn't dare to attack, so he waited.

Later, Peng Zaozhu sent someone over and sent him a letter, telling him about his father’s feud with Zhao Junyong, and expressed his willingness to return to the court.

First Timur, and then asked many things about Chuzhou, inquiring about the truth.

Finally, Luo Guanzhong's opportunity arrived. He picked up a large pen and began to write-Hu compiled information.

This Mr. Luo can really write about everything from food, clothing, shelter, personal preferences, to the situation of his subordinates, to military discipline and military regulations... He has compiled a complete set.

There are tens of thousands of words, just like a novel.

After Timur received it, he got more and more excited, and he forgot to sleep and eat when he read.

It's really interesting!

Zhu Yuanzhang was a little monk in his early years and he was begging for food. He had never eaten good things. His favorite was the roasted centipede. The centipede was half a foot long. It was roasted on the fire and it was crispy and fragrant. He could eat more than 100 roots in one meal. .

In order to satisfy the appetite, Zhu Yuanzhang launched his hand to look for centipede, and some people were bitten by it. The people of Chuzhou called Zhu Yuanzhang General Centipede...

And Zhu Yuanzhang was afraid of his wife, he relied on his wife's power to have what he is today.

But Ma was jealous, and Zhu Yuanzhang was not allowed to take a concubine. Zhu Yuanzhang was furious and sharpened his sword for a day and wanted to kill Ma... But at this moment ~www.readwn.com~ Ma suddenly came and asked him why he sharpened his knife.

Zhu Yuanzhang immediately replied: Seeing the wife was thin, kill the sheep for her!

This interesting description made Timur first smile. Zhu Yuanzhang, a vulgar, fearful, and ambitious Zhu Yuanzhang, appeared on paper.

This person is also worthy of being an enemy of the Yuan Dynasty?

As long as the army rushes over, it may scare him to death!

First Timur was unscrupulous. Wherever the Yuan army passed, the people fled and mourned. Thousands of people ran to Liuhe, praying for protection from the Zhu family.

At this moment, due to the reorganization, Feng Guoyu, who was originally stationed in Liuhe, is not there, only Geng Junyong and Geng Bingwen and his son are present, and the soldiers and horses are also very limited.

The two men went to the city in person, and saw the people kneeling outside the city. Their scalp was numb and their palms were sweating.

"My son, what do you think?"

Geng Bingwen gritted his teeth, "What else can I do, fight with the dog Tarzi!" The young man leaned over the crenel and looked at the crowd outside.

"Guys, Yuan Tanzi slaughtered lives and sins are serious, they don't give people a way to survive! If you want to live, don't kneel down and beg us! Take up weapons and fight with Tanzi! Protect yourself!"

"Stand up, don't kneel!"

"If you have the courage, you will go to the city to get weapons and fight with Tarzi! If you have the courage, I will arrange someone to send you back!"

In fact, Geng Bingwen had also read books under Zhang Ximeng for several months, and his eloquence was very good.

After some encouragement, about seven or eight hundred people stood up angrily, willing to help defend the city.

Geng Bingwen sent these people into the city and waited for them. The rest of the elderly, weak, women and children, along with the elderly and children in Liuhe City, were immediately sent away.

Geng Jun used to mobilize the army and the people, race against time to dig trenches, reinforce the city walls, prepare defense equipment, and wait for the arrival of Timur...
