Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to take the counties of Tongtai first, cut off Shicheng's elbow wings, and then focus on the western part of Zhejiang, but was finally disrupted by Chen Youliang's attack from the northwest, and had to stop the crusade against Zhang Shicheng.
Despite this, Jiande Road has been Zhu Yuanzhang? Drop, Zhang Shicheng wants to go west will face the danger of attacking Jiancheng, and at this time, Zhu Yuanzhang has also expanded from tens of thousands of soldiers and horses at the beginning to 100,000 well-equipped soldiers at present, and the return of Shang Yu made Zhu Yuanzhang feel the importance of Li Shanchang and Shang Yu.
Taiping Road is in a hurry at this time, Zhu Yuanzhang heard that Shang Yu has returned, can he not be happy?
This time Shang Yu returned, in addition to returning to Anxian County to manage the county government and take care of his mother, it was to step up the firearms that Zhu Yuanzhang needed, and now the Yuan court sent hundreds of soldiers with firearms in the north to kill tens of thousands of righteous soldiers in the border area with Chen Youliang and fled, which caused Zhu Yuanzhang to panic.
It is not easy to make and maintain firearms, especially the gunpowder is easy to get wet in the south of the Yangtze River and therefore fails, but Zhu Yuanzhang does not just want to occupy the land in the south of the Yangtze River, his goal is to drive the Yuan court back to the prairie that originally belonged to them, the number of firecrackers in the Yuan court is not rare, if you go to the north, you must be able to face the Yuan army with strong lethality in the hands of the firecracker, so Zhu Yuanzhang stayed in Shangyu in Yingtianfu for a day, and then took a boat to send Shang Yu at the Yingtianfu water gate.
"Brother Xian, this time you return to Lai'an County, you must complete the production of the firearms that our army needs as soon as possible, I want to use it to unexpectedly pacify the two thieves Chen Youliang and Zhang Shicheng, and the post of county commander of Lai'an County will be resigned on the day you complete the firearms, I want you to respond to Tianfu to help me rebuild the city, do you think it's okay?"
With Shen Fuxiang's gift of one million taels of silver tickets, Zhu Yuanzhang, who has always lacked money, became a nouveau riche like a beggar, and immediately wanted to implement the plan to rebuild Yingtianfu, as long as the strong city is formed, then Yingtian will be the cornerstone of a large number of military supplies, and will become the largest commercial town in Jiangnan, Yingtian will replace Pingjiang (Suzhou), Yangzhou, Hangzhou three state capitals of Jiangnan commercial town status, Yingtianfu has this unique conditions, land and waterway are more convenient than other regions, Zhu Yuanzhang still thought very thoughtfully.
"Big brother, now is not the best time to repair the city. You should give up attacking Zhang Shicheng at present, although this person is based for thousands of miles, but he is not enterprising, he just wants to be in a corner of peace, the eldest brother should not take Chen Youliang first, this guy killed his master Ni Wenjun first, this time he actually captured Taiping City, it is advisable to send secret soldiers into the country to buy Chen Youliang's subordinates, and use the trick to take it, if Chen Youliang is defeated, Zhang Shicheng is really afraid, Xiao Yu will inevitably step up the production of firearms when he returns to Lai'an. Shang Yu said slowly.
"Brother, what you said is exactly the same as Liu Ji from the Shang League, this person has also been thrown into our army since the Yuan Court, it has been more than two years, if it weren't for the Lu League's Lord to order him to reveal his identity, I didn't know that he was a Jinshi favored by the Yuan Emperor, this person has been lurking in the Yuan Court for many years in the Shang League, and now he is also very insightful about the general trend of the world, right! Your mother's righteous daughter Xianglan'er heard that she is still Mr. Liu Ji's daughter-in-law, and I heard that he intended to strip Xianglan'er from the door wall, saying that the Lord of the Lu League intended to make you marry her, do you know about this? ”
"Big brother, Xianglan'er is just my mother's daughter, and Xiao Yu has no other intentions for her. Ay! Big brother, you should know that Lu Wan is the woman who has been engaged to me, but she has become an enemy with me by mistake! If she and Zhang Sanfeng get into trouble in the future, I hope you don't ask, see if it's okay. "Zhang Sanfeng's Wudang faction is a secret chess piece of Zhu Yuanzhang in the north, which is regarded as a nail planted by the Shang League for Zhu Yuanzhang in the north, Shang Yu naturally knows about this, and when he heard that Zhu Yuanzhang actually wanted him to marry Xianglan'er as his wife, Shang Yu will naturally think of Lu Wan, who has become a monk.
If it is said that Xiang Lan'er, Shang Yu is not unmoved, Xiang Lan'er knows how to answer the gift, and the blog is strong, it can be said that if it were not for Liu Xingbao forcibly instilling him with no mathematical knowledge, Shang Yu would not be as good as Xiang Lan'er at all.
Xiang Lan'er is beautiful and knows how to get along with people, which is several times stronger than Lu Wanlai, but Lu Wan is arrogant and willful, but Shang Yu has never forgotten all kinds of scenes with Lu Wan since he was a child, especially when he was chased to the cliff by Quanzhou Persian volunteers, the scene made him never forget.
"Brother, Na Lu Wan is the young lady of the Lu family, a branch of the Shang Alliance, and I know this very well! I will tell Zhang Sanfeng not to hurt her! It's just that this woman is too radical, and she has already become a monk, but the so-called people who have left Hongchen do not forget the hatred that does not exist, her mother is completely to blame, and she committed suicide, no wonder Master Zhang Sanfeng. That Miss Xianglan'er actually abandoned her identity as the lord of the Yuan Court and was willing to serve your mother, it makes no sense for you not to marry such a woman, do you still want to marry a nun who has already become a monk? After Zhu Yuanzhang heard Shang Yudi's words, he said such a long sentence of persuasion in a serious tone.
Shang Yu couldn't help but count silently after hearing this, then raised his head and said, "My mother is in charge of this matter, Xiao Yu is here to say goodbye to the eldest brother first!" A few months later, the younger brother would personally deliver a large number of ground firearms to Ying Tianfu, hoping to break the danger of Chen Youliang's attack on our army. Although he knew that it would be difficult to get together with Lu Wan again, Shang Yu was still a little sad that Lu Wan actually took down the uncomfortable Buddha name of extinction for himself, to represent the separation from the world, and had the intention of exterminating the Iron Shirt Gate.
"Good! This glass of water and wine will be given to you for your brother, and you will come back after drinking! Zhu Yuanzhang said that, he picked up a glass of wine from the tray held by the attendant next to him, and handed it to Shang Yu with a smile.
"Thank you, big brother!" Shang Yu happily took the wine glass and drank it all.
"It's really Yu'er, you're finally back!"
"Mother! Xiao Yu is back, you have always been a good old man? Looking at his mother's gray hair, Shang Yu knelt down in front of Shang Mei's body with trembling hearts and wept bitterly.
"Xiao Yu, if it weren't for Lan'er accompanying her mother, and she has been comforting her mother and saying that you will never have an accident, your mother may not have been able to wait for the day when you come back." Shang Mei said with tears in his eyes on Shang Yu's face.
Although Shang Yu was crying again, he still turned his face to look at Xiang Lan'er on the side, only to see that Xiang Lan'er's face was also much thinner, and her eyes were full of tears, but she looked at him with tenderness, and her eyes were full of joy.
"Lan'er, thank you for taking good care of your mother......" Shang Yu said gratefully to Xianglan'er in sobbing, he felt so gentle and considerate for Xianglan'er at this time, but Lu Wan's figure still floated in his heart.
"I'm my mother's daughter, I should have taken care of her old man's land, Xiao Yu, you don't have to be polite!" Xiang Lan'er finally couldn't help crying at the end.
In the first period of Shang Yu's disappearance, Xiang Lan'er seemed to have lost her soul, if it wasn't for taking care of Shang Mei's family, I am afraid that Xiang Lan'er would also collapse mentally.
For a while, the three people in the room lost their voices and cried bitterly.
And Zhao Qing, who was standing outside the alley, sighed at this time, and thought in his heart: "Lan'er is obviously concerned about Shang Yuxian's brother, it seems that I haven't been able to make Lan'er take me to heart for several years, it seems that I should give up Lan'er!" Maybe that's how it should end. ”
