125. One-two-five

Later history books will call this battle the first clarion call to resist Mongolia and the Yuan, Ming Tai-Zu Zhu Yuanzhang in this battle for the first time, and the famous is the Yusheng who was recognized as the mission of heaven to slay the dragon in hand.

After that, Yusheng was constantly deified, more and more people defected to him, and all kinds of literati and warriors gathered together, and they simply strangled Dayuan, although the foundation was not very stable, but it could still hold on for decades in advance.

But that was all later, and after pulling the time back to that initial battle, Yusheng was very busy. The doctor was a scarce resource in this righteous army that had just been gathered, and Yusheng had to go down in person to rescue those seriously wounded, and also take the time to instruct the preparation of one or two gold sore medicines.

Zhu Chongba had attracted nearly 1,000 people before, but only one-third of them were actually young and middle-aged, and the rest were all old, weak, women and children. And there are thousands of Yuan soldiers who came to encircle and suppress them, Yusheng doesn't want to be presumptuous, but I have to admit that this is very unusual, but the enemy is at present, most of the people in the righteous army have been killed by the Yuan soldiers, at this time, seeing the huge gap in strength between the enemy and us, I have the idea of fighting to the death. At that time, no one thought that they could escape under the siege of this group of tigers and wolves, they just wanted to pull a cushion on their backs, which could be regarded as revenge for the family members who had been killed, and even if they were under Jiuquan, they could have the face to see their relatives again.

When everyone rushed towards Yuan Bing with such an indomitable momentum, it still looked very bluffing. What's more, the Yusheng who led them in front of them was still not moving, and he was already moving, and he could definitely be called a big killer. After the thief captured the king first, and after killing the leader with an arrow, Yusheng rode around the Yuan army a few times on a horse, and quietly sprinkled a few handfuls of medicinal powder.

Although that medicinal powder is not as powerful as the ten-spice soft tendon powder, it can still make people soft in their hands and feet and slow in their reactions.

It also turned out later that Yusheng made this hand very necessary.

The image of the fierce and mighty Yuan soldiers has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, but no matter how deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, it is not as good as catching up with real swords and guns, when they feel that the Mongols who died in their hands are not so terrible, this rebel army really has a backbone.

"This group of soldiers is not coming in the right place." After settling the dead, settling the wounded, and appeasing those who survived, Hua Manlou took the lead in raising doubts at a small meeting of the three.

"They came too early and there were too many people." Under the encouragement of Yusheng's gaze, Zhu Chongba, who saw blood in the day and let go of himself, said, "When I was wandering around before, I didn't see people who resisted, but if this kind of thing doesn't make a big fuss, there are few people who take the initiative to pursue it." We are only cutting down forests and building villages in the mountains now, and we have not done anything, according to common sense, it is impossible to be taken into account by the imperial court, let alone send troops to encircle and suppress them. ”

"Unless someone deliberately released the rumor, which aroused the vigilance of Yuan Ting." Hua Manlou agrees with Zhu Chongba's statement. It's just that along the way, they have provoked many people in the rivers and lakes because of the dragon slaying knife, but if they compare their hearts to their hearts, the people in the rivers and lakes of the dragon slaying knife may take it very seriously, but in the eyes of the imperial court, it is not enough. And the people in the rivers and lakes have no ability, or no scheming to collude with the court.

"Mongolians believe in Buddhism, right?" Yusheng suddenly opened his mouth faintly.

"Do you suspect the first monk we met after coming out of the desert?" Hua Manlou quickly reacted.

"Don't say you didn't notice something was wrong." Yusheng doesn't have any evidence, but as soon as he meets a monk, he habitually throws the pot, and this problem probably can't be changed in a short time. Moreover, he also trusted his instincts, and there were eight achievements in this matter that were done by the monk. "The rumors about the Dragon Slayer Knife were normal at first, and the people in the rivers and lakes suspected that I had unlocked the secret of the Dragon Slaying Knife, so I was able to kill all sides. But then the rumors turned sour, and it would be strange if no one was in it. ”

The rumors have developed so far, and it has become the one who has won the dragon slayer to win the world, if this Yuan Court can still endure it, then it is strange.

"If so, this man's intentions are not small." Hua Manlou's complexion was also stern. A person with superb martial arts, first escaped into the empty Shaolin to study medicine from scratch, and on the other hand, he was mixed with Yuan Ting. This is not Daqing, and there are no six doors as a hub to regulate the relationship between the imperial court and the rivers and lakes. Even in the Great Song Dynasty, when Zhan Zhao had just served Kaifeng Mansion, Nanxia's reputation became a joke. At this time, the imperial court was dominated by foreigners, and it was difficult for Hua Manlou to think about the good side.

Zhu Chongba was confused when he heard it, and only understood that today's encirclement and suppression was a ghost made by a monk. Yusheng saw the blankness in his eyes, and regardless of whether his guess had a factual basis, he directly told Zhu Chongba. In the current team, the importance of Zhu Chongba is undoubted, Yusheng doesn't want to be careless, and this good cabbage is arched by pigs.

As it turned out, Yusheng was very prescient. It was precisely because of his advance reminder that Zhu Chongba had a clear position and was not turned on a fork in the road.

This matter has to start with Cheng Kun.

As a paranoid conspirator, he can blame all the faults on others, and he can also do all the evil things for his so-called hatred, and even so, no one will see through his true colors and treat him as a good person. His apprentice respected him like a master and a father, but in order to split the Ming Sect, he raped and killed his apprentice's daughter-in-law, and killed all the thirteen members of the apprentice's family, and he was stunned to create a demon for the rivers and lakes.

And this poor and hateful devil is Xie Xun, the golden lion king who has been recognized as a dead man in the rivers and lakes today.

Cheng Kun is ambitious and ruthless enough. Xie Xun is alive, he uses people thoroughly, and when he hears the news that Xie Xun is dead, he still thinks about how to use the bones and slag. Of course, what he valued most was the dragon slaying knife that was snatched away by Xie Xun a few years ago. Cheng Kun is not a detached person, so he is very interested in the secrets of the Dragon Slayer Knife.

As for the result, well, almost beaten into a dog.

Even the apprentice who was very filial to himself could not bear to be sacrificed, a jade sheng who completely offended him ruthlessly, and then he could not be described as Cheng Kun's determination. Over the years, Cheng Kun has stayed in the Shaolin Temple, and he has also worshiped the elders of the senior rank as teachers, and he has paid great attention to his words and deeds.

He doesn't have all the good qualities that a chivalrous person should have, and those backbone positions have come to naught. He threw himself into the palace of Ruyang, the king of Ruyang, as a prince with heavy troops, not to mention his power, the key is that he also has a pair of smart children, he just mentioned a few words, and the little county lord who was very favored and had a lot of ideas couldn't sit still. Cheng Kun just pretended to persuade a few words, and then watched the little county lord go to the prince, and then the summons to send a thousand yuan soldiers were issued.

Regardless of whether he could hit that Yusheng hard or not, Cheng Kun prepared a back hand, which was enough for him to avenge the day's revenge.

The result should have been nine out of ten, but when the result came back, it just made him feel ridiculous.

A ragtag army of a few hundred people that was temporarily pulled up wiped out a thousand Mongol soldiers, isn't this a joke? However, Cheng Kun couldn't laugh, and no one in the Ruyang Palace's mansion who knew the news and confirmed it was correct couldn't laugh.

If they only regarded the Heavenly Lord as a dispensable joke before, and now that they have been slapped in the face, they have to start thinking carefully - is that rumor true?

Nowadays, it no longer matters whether it is true or not, what matters is that they cannot tolerate a group of such brave fighting forces standing on their opposite side. After vetoing the possibility of recruiting An, they all thought that they should destroy this group of thorns in one go.

Cheng Kun, however, offered the opposite. After fading the impulse of the beginning, his true nature emerges and proposes another Jianyì. Cheng Kun really likes to play with people's hearts too much, instead of fanfare to say that he attaches more importance to Yusheng, it is better to stab him in the back.

The little county lord was the first to agree: "That's right, raising soldiers is not an easy task, and countless financial and material resources are spent. Moreover, marching and fighting is not just an individual, once one side is unbalanced, it is difficult to unite again. If there is external oppression, they will unite under this pressure, but if they lose the external force and destroy one or two internally, they will become a puddle of loose sand. ”

Cheng Kunxiao's relief was tinged with a hint of flattery, but he kept calculating in his heart. Looking old at the age of three, the little county lord now knows how to play tricks, and he won't have much room to play in the future. But no matter what, the little county lord is only seven years old now, and he still has a long future, and the immediate priority is to solve the jade sheng and get the dragon slaying knife.

Cheng Kun quickly left Dadu and lurked near where the rebels were. He thought that after a fierce battle, he would see a tired, sad and resentful rebel army, but he did not expect him to sneak in cautiously and find that except for a few patrolling prime men, the rest were old and weak women and children.

What's going on? Cheng Kun felt strange at the moment, and he didn't dare to act rashly for a while, and when he returned to the city to find the beggar gang disciples, he found a fact that shocked him: three neighboring cities had been quietly occupied.

This greatly exceeded Cheng Kun's imagination. He decided that he wouldn't do anything until he figured out what was going on here.

Zhu Chongba was very excited, although Yusheng and Hua Manlou had told him that the so-called Lord of Destiny was a rumor deliberately spread by someone, and they did not deny it in order to recruit more talents, but what was going on, as their own people, they still had to know in their hearts. Although both of them had warned Zhu Chongba like this, in his heart, he had already decided that this was the truth, just like the rebels below.

Otherwise, how could this qiē progress so smoothly?

Not only did Zhu Chongba think so, but Yusheng also muttered in his heart.

He never thought that the rebellion was so simple, and it seemed like it would come naturally, and it didn't take much effort from him at all, it just started and ended naturally. When he came back to his senses, he also had the confidence to dare to claim that he was also a force with more than 10,000 soldiers and horses.

This is just a drop in the bucket compared to the hundreds of thousands of troops that Yuan Ting claims to have, but when you think about the time and speed at which these people gathered, you can know how amazing it is.

"This time we picked up a bargain, but the foundation has been established, as long as we work steadily, we will definitely be able to make a difference." Hua Manlou is also a novice when it comes to rebellion, but he is thoughtful and thoughtful than Yusheng. At this time, he tapped the map that was spread out, and analyzed it slowly, "As long as we go down to these two cities and have the Lushui River as a partition, our territory will be stable." ”

"I'm afraid these two cities will not be easy to take." Yusheng must admit that it is already a big luck to be able to win three cities. If it weren't for the fact that the people who ordered him to besiege him did not directly send troops for a while, but transferred them nearby, and evacuated the main camps of those three cities, they didn't know if they wanted to get to this point today, they wouldn't know if they would have to wait until the Year of the Monkey.

"Didn't you make a new batch of drugs?" Hua Manlou said very frankly. "It's better to be able to fight without blood."

Just when Yusheng wondered that Hua Manlou seemed to be a little black-hearted, Zhu Chongba, who had been eating and living in the barracks these days, ended his day's patrol and prepared to go back to his room to rest. As a newly appointed general, he had the right to be in a room alone, but as soon as he entered the house, he was occupied. Wide-eyed, I found that someone had come in the room at some point.

Baldness! It's a monk!

Remembering that Yusheng once said that there was a monk who was particularly bad and had been calculating them, Zhu Chongba's vigilance rose to the highest point.

What is he going to do? Do you want to hurt me or the lord? I've finally followed the right lord, am I going to die here today?

Although there were a bunch of messy thoughts in his heart, Zhu Chongba had already experienced it, and he looked fearless and upright.

The bald monk, that is, Cheng Kun, became more and more satisfied, and after he figured out why the rebel army attacked the city so quickly, he set his eyes on Zhu Chongba, a young general who was in the limelight. He thought he knew such people very well, and he would do anything as long as he had the opportunity to get ahead, and he was very happy when he thought that the people among Yusheng were rebelled against by him.

So, Cheng Kun spoke: "You and I have a master-apprentice relationship, why don't you apprentice today, I will teach you a skill, I wish you great success." ”

Zhu Chongba: ...... Is there a disease in the braincase?
