Chapter 245: Loyalty and Courage

If the news of the loss of Yingzhou is like a glimmer of fire in the dead wood, then the news of the fall of Xuzhou can be called a spark of fire.

As far as the Northern Red Turban Army represented by Liu Futong is concerned, this is a great opportunity to boost morale.

Fang Guozhen on the southeast coast continued to involve the energy of the imperial court under Wen Xuan's instructions, Peng Yingyu and Xu Shouhui in the south had begun to attack the Yuan court, and now Han Lingyue on the northeast side had seized the land of Xuzhou, and the various departments of the Red Turban Army in the north immediately came out of a state of worry.

The clouds of the river are rising and the sun is sinking, and the mountain rain is about to come, and the wind is full of buildings.

The Red Turban Army continued to expand its power, and the Yuan Army began to dispatch elite soldiers to suppress and encircle and suppress in an organized manner, and a new war was about to start in the Central Plains.

Even if Timur delayed the fighter, but the soldiers under his command had already set out on the expedition, on the other hand, Liu Futong's side, because Du Zundao took Han Lin'er in his own hands, so Liu Futong had to swallow his anger and charge into battle as a marshal, running around.

Marshal Liu, who was pinched seven inches, first defeated the official army in early September, killed the Yuan army's Wanhu Duo'er, and Qianhu Gao'antong, captured Runing Mansion, and then successively broke the light and Xi'er Prefecture.

Then the official army came to suppress, Liu Futong led his troops to fight fiercely with the official army in Bozhou, killed the commander and made the bald army, captured the Yuan army's baggage innumerable, and the people from all over the country looked forward to the wind to vote, and for a time its troops were as large as 100,000.

Liu Futong gave enough support and affirmation to Han Lingyue's new identity as a saint - he did not support the idea that Du Zundao and others wanted to separate the Red Turban Army from the Ming Sect, on the contrary, Liu Futong believed that all military positions in the Red Turban Army should be held by key members within the Ming Sect.

After Liu Futong conquered Runing Mansion, he used it as his own outpost and led his troops to garrison it, while Du Zundao continued to sit in Yingzhou.

Now hearing the news that the Yuan army is moving out again, Du Zundao gathered many people to gather in the Yingzhou Marshal's Mansion to discuss countermeasures.

"Since Marshal Liu is far away in Runing Mansion, the affairs of the army should be decided by Du Junshi." Sheng Wenyu looked at the middle-level generals such as Qianhu and Baihu newly recruited by the Red Turban Army in the field, and said slowly.

In the past six months, Sheng Wenyu has shown a new face - that is, a loyal supporter of Du Zundao.

He has done a lot of things that he would do if he didn't do Du Zundao, for example, when Liu Futong was not there at this time, he had to win the hearts of Du Zundao as much as possible to win his deeper and deeper trust.

The prestige in the army is what Du Zundao lacks, after all, in the hearts of the military and the people, they will not remember the name of the logistics chief, and Liu Futong, who is invincible and flees from the Yuan soldiers, is the hero in their hearts.

Therefore, if Du Zundao wants to replace Liu Futong in the future, he is bound to start accumulating his prestige, and Sheng Wenyu has already seen through this, so he took the initiative to undertake this task.

After Sheng Wenyu made his statement, a group of real doglegs began to echo:

"That's nature."

"But it's up to Du Junshi to decide."

"Everyone's okay!"

Most of the Red Turban Army were poor people, few capable people, and the promotion of generals was entirely determined by the superiors, so it was inevitable to develop a wind of clinging, and split into various factions with each other, and on the surface they were harmonious, but secretly they were constantly fighting petty battles.

Most of the people present at this moment are people who have been personally selected and promoted by Du Zundao, of course they have no opinion!

Because only when Du Zundao's power becomes greater, their status will rise, and they will be qualified to compete with some altar masters and deacons who are the backbone of Mingjiao.

Du Zundao sat at the head and groaned with a smile, and controlled Han Lin'er by himself, he looked complacent everywhere.

After years of painstaking deliberation, he was finally able to suppress Liu Futong, and this pleasure of achieving his goal made every pore of him feel comfortable, and every bone was extraordinarily hard.

But just as he wanted to pretend to excuse himself, someone in the corner made an extremely objectionous voice.

"It's so shameless!"

Everyone followed the prestige, and said who was so bold, and they all fell silent when they saw his face.

The person who angrily reprimanded Sheng Wenyu is Liu Futong's current right-hand man Han Yan'er, although he is only one of the vast thousands of households in the Red Turban Army, leading people to guard Shangcai County, but after all, he was Han Shantong's trusted henchman, if you talk about seniority, Du Zundao should also call him Brother Han.

Such a Mingjiao veteran, only the presence of veterans like Liu Futong and Luo Wensu can be deterred, and a group of Mingjiao newcomers present naturally did not dare to offend, so he stood up and scolded angrily, and the audience immediately fell silent.

Sheng Wenyu was dismissed, his face suddenly turned cold, and he said coldly: "This is the place for deliberations, and Han Qianhu is not allowed to rely on the old and sell the old here." ”

After all, Liu Futong was not present, and Li Wu and Cui De, who were also his descendants, knew that they should not quarrel with Du Zundao at this time, so they immediately whispered dissuasion on the side, fearing that Han Yan'er would suffer a loss.

Han Yan'er broke away from Li Wu's hand that was tugging at his sleeve, and said proudly: "Everyone here may not know that although Hall Master Han was killed, he had already announced that Brother Liu was the marshal of our rebel army before his death. ”

Then he pointed to Du Zundao, who was sitting in the first place, and said to the others: "And what kind of thing is he Du Zundao?" It's just because Marshal Liu loves talent that he enshrines you as a military advisor, and now the Yuan court wants to send a large army of soldiers and horses to fight, how to deal with it is bound to be decided by Marshal Liu, where is our turn to decide without permission? ”

"You...... You're so bold! ”

Although these words really slapped Du Zundao's face, if they were more true, they were indeed reasonable, Sheng Wenyu pretended to be indignant and pointed at Han Yan'er, wanting to refute it, but he couldn't think of a good reason for it for a while.

Han Yan'er had already decided in her heart that Sheng Wenyu was a treacherous person who tended to be inflammatory, so she snorted coldly and ignored it.

After Sheng Wenyu pretended, he stopped saying anything, and went to see Du Zundao's face and act at the opportunity.

The people present immediately talked about it, and they didn't know what to do.

How do you know that Du Zundao is not angry but happy, his heart is happy, and he thinks in his heart: "Okay, you Han Biter, I don't want to trouble you, you can't hold your breath first, just take you today!" ”

So he got up and raised his voice: "What Han Qianhu said is indeed reasonable, how to plan the war should be decided by Marshal Liu. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone including Sheng Wenyu was a little surprised, how could Du Zundao's ambition and strategy be willing to miss this opportunity to increase his prestige?

Sheng Wenyu persuaded: "Du Junshi's words are wrong, the battlefield is changing rapidly, if we delay time because of this, we can't afford to delay the military plane!" ”
