Although there were constant battles in the city of Haozhou, it did not prevent these people from dealing with the Yuan soldiers, Jia Lu led tens of thousands of troops to launch many attacks, but failed to achieve significant results, but it was several counterattacks by the Red Turban Army in the city that caused heavy losses to the Yuan soldiers.

The two sides clashed again and again, until the Yuan soldiers were unable to besiege the city, and Wen Xuan and the three of them also left Haozhou.

Before leaving, Mu Chong deliberately left the gun head he got from Li Hongyao to Mu Ying, and taught Mu Ying the essence of the Mu family's marksmanship that he had studied.

During this time, Wen Xuan and Mu Chong had already set up a new stronghold of Night Shadow in Haozhou City, and had successfully re-established contact with Su Sheng in the distant capital.

After learning of Su Sheng's complete plan of action, Wen Xuan decided to go to Jiangnan in person, and Han Lingyue and Mu Chong also happily walked together.

Wen Xuan and Mu Chong re-entered Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and their mood was very different from when they quelled the Qinglongtang rebellion, especially after they finally left the Henan battlefield, their mood also improved, and they just accompanied Han Lingyue to relax.

As soon as Wen Xuan entered Jiangnan, he was immediately greeted by Shen Fu's subordinates.

Shen Fu is now a figure in the rich Jiangnan, whether it is an official of the Yuan Court or a hero of the green forest, there are countless people who have been bought by him, but it is a pity that the first battle in Hangzhou was too rash, otherwise Wen Xianzhong and Peng Yingyu's plans are very likely to be realized.

Wen Xianzhong did not give up on his plan, the old man's health had already improved, and he was about to use the power accumulated by Shen Fu in Jiangnan to personally plan to raise the anti-Yuan banner, but he had no choice but to make people by providence, just as he was about to act, Zhao Wanpu, the descendant of the Zhao family, suddenly had a strange illness and died mysteriously.

Wen Xianzhong was heartbroken, knowing that his hope of reproducing the glory of Zhao Song was now completely shattered, so he gradually let go of the obsession in his heart, and turned to worry about his son's marriage, and kept sending letters urging Wen Xuan to take Han Lingyue back to the island to complete the marriage.

Although Wen Xuan was a little distressed about this matter, she also secretly sent a sigh of relief and replied that she would help Yue'er avenge it as soon as possible.

Within a few days, Shen Fu came to meet Wen Xuan in person, and handed Wen Xuan a golden key after the banquet, saying that he had secretly accumulated a shocking fortune.

Wen Xuan did not accept the golden key, but told Shen Fu to put this thing away, and after the world was unified, this thing could save the lives of his whole family.

Shen Fu can have today, all thanks to Wen Xuan's secret help, and he obeyed his words, so he didn't mention this matter more, but helped Wen Xuan study how to complete Su Sheng's strategy.

According to Su Sheng's idea, the fight between the two powerful ministers of Hama and Tokhtar is only the first step, and if he wants to completely overthrow Totok, he needs to completely lose the trust of Emperor Zhizheng.

Su Sheng thought of the death of a generation of famous generals Yue Fei, as long as he found a way to let Tokhtar control the military power that was enough to subvert the Yuan Court, and there was Hama behind him, then even if Emperor Zhizheng trusted Tokhtar again, he would definitely attack him just in case.

If you want to let Tokh go out in person again, it is very difficult to do it with the current Red Turban Army of the North and the South, so Su Sheng will set his sights on Jiangnan, which is the richest place in the world, and even most of the food is supplied by Jiangnan.

Shen Fu has been operating in Jiangnan for a long time, and he has secretly funded many righteous people who raised anti-flags, but most of them have been quickly suppressed by the Yuan soldiers, and they have not been able to make any noise so far.

Wen Xuan had a plan for this matter, since Zhu Yuanzhang and Chen Youliang had already been born, then Zhang Shicheng would naturally not be far away...... So Wen Xuan smiled and told Shen Fu that there was no need to be anxious, what should come will always come, just be patient and wait.

Time passed day by day, and before I knew it, autumn went to winter, and it was the end of the twelfth year.

Before the arrival of the New Year, Wen Xuan received two important news.

First, the Yuan court encouraged Li Chahan and others, who had repeatedly performed miraculous feats, and named Li Chahan as Daru Huachi in Runing Prefecture, which undoubtedly represented the powerful combination of the Yuan court's army and the private armed forces in various places, and the landlords and clans who had eaten the sweetness would definitely stand more firmly on the side of the Yuan court and help it suppress the Red Turban Army.

The second is that the Nanzo Red Turban Army under the leadership of Meng Haima actually succeeded in sneaking up on Xiangyang, but unfortunately the answer to the loss of Badulu is not an idle person, and soon Xiangyang was recaptured again.

Wen Xuan knew in his heart that once the two rebels were unable to make waves again in Xiangfan, then Badulu would definitely point the finger at the Tianwan regime next!

Wen Xuan sighed again and again in his heart, he only hoped that Meng Haima could hold on for a little longer...... It's best to make it to the Jiangnan side.

This year's wax moon passed in a low tide of the Red Turban Army, and there was no joy on everyone's faces.

In the first month of the thirteenth year of Zhizheng, the good news that Wen Xuan and others were looking forward to finally came.

On this day, Shen Fu suddenly ran into Wen Xuan's room in a hurry, and Wen Xuan saw that his face was full of joy, so he immediately asked, "But what is the good news?" ”

Shen Fu took a breath and nodded: "There is a group of righteous men in Taizhou, and they actually captured Taizhou in one go!" ”

Wen Xuan's heart moved when he heard this: "Do you know what the name of the leader is?" ”

Shen Fu replied: "The leader is a family of four brothers surnamed Zhang, the eldest is called Zhang Shicheng, the second is called Zhang Shiyi, the third is called Zhang Shide, and the eldest is called Zhang Shixin!" ”

Sure enough, it's them! Wen Xuan was overjoyed, and immediately called Mu Chong and Han Lingyue, and the four of them immediately led people to Taizhou.

Wen Xuan and his entourage acted vigorously and resolutely, needless to mention, and said that Taizhou was in chaos at this time.

Due to the corruption of the Yuan court, the financial side could not make ends meet, and after the change of money failed, in order to make up for the expanding government expenditure and military expenditure, it could only increase the salt supply in large quantities, and constantly increase the price of salt, and the salt industry in eastern Zhejiang gradually became the main source of income for the state finance.

Although the price of salt is constantly rising, the salt farmers engaged in the salt industry on the southeast coast still have no security in their livelihood and are oppressed by local officials, such as Fang Guozhen and others.

The situation of Zhang Shicheng's family is somewhat similar to that of Fang Guozhen's family, the Zhang family is a pavilion household in Baijuchang, Taizhou, in order to support their families, the four brothers of the Zhang family have to be like the villagers since childhood, operating boats to transport salt on the official salt boat in Baijuchang, relying on selling coolies to earn a meager income to subsidize the family.

In addition, Taizhou is located on the southeast coast, and in the middle of summer, it will always encounter the invasion of a typhoon at sea, causing the tide to pour into the field, so that after the typhoon, the sea water recedes, and the fertile land that has been reclaimed has instantly become saline-alkali land, so the life of the Zhang family is also very poor.
