Chapter 206: A Gathering of Heroes
Wen Xuan and Han Lingyue did not stop after leaving, and went down the mountain overnight to rush back to Henan.
A few days later, many people came to the cloudy villa one after another, and they gathered in the conference hall one after another, as if waiting for the important moment to come.
Peng Yingyu changed into a clean monk's robe on this day, stood up from the second seat and said to Xu Shouhui: "The failure of the Yuanzhou uprising led to the unfortunate death of my eldest apprentice Zhou Ziwang, all because of my lack of preparation, which led to isolation and helplessness. ”
"Since then, I have been planning day and night, carefully preparing, and it is bound to overthrow the Yuan court in one fell swoop. You are all my right-hand disciples, in order to achieve a great cause, I sent my right-hand disciples to scatter everywhere in advance to develop, just wait for this moment, together to unveil the rod and catch the Yuan Court off guard! ”
Xu Shouhui and Ni Wenjun also stood up and waited for Peng Yingyu to introduce everyone in the room one by one.
"His name is Li Pusheng, and the villagers mostly call him 'Li Patou', he is very good at water kung fu, and his ability to turn over rivers and seas is unmatched."
"This is Zhao Pusheng, because of his good double sword, he is nicknamed 'Double Sword Zhao', and his martial arts are the first of my disciples."
"Xiang Puluo, I have learned a lot of my skills in the art of war, so that he can lead the soldiers of one side."
"Ou Puxiang, a good practitioner, can be a craftsman, if he conquers the city, he can see his strengths."
"Chen Puwen, I don't forget to read the book, I can't forget ten lines at a glance, the big thing is about to start, and the dispatch of household registration money and food can be paid to him."
"Ding Pulang, brave and resolute, there are few opponents on the field, if you are a pioneer, you will definitely be able to smash Huanglong."
"Yang Puxiong, a descendant of the Yang generals of the Northern Song Dynasty, is loyal and brave, both civil and military, and it is not a problem to defend one side."
"Zou Pusheng, who is familiar with astronomy and geography, and knows the number of yin and yang, if you talk about strategizing, his ability is not inferior to me."
"As for Guo Putian, although his talent is average, unlike his juniors who are proficient in one, but he can learn from the strengths of others and make up for his own shortcomings, which is most similar to me."
After listening to Peng Yingyu's introduction of the nine proud disciples on his side, Xu Shouhui hugged his fists and said: "I have heard your names for a long time, and I will rely on you more in the future." ”
Ni Wenjun echoed: "Since you are here, everyone is a brother, but don't be restrained!" ”
Xu Shouhui couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw that Peng Yingyu had such precise preparations and brought many good players. After greetings, he shook his hand and said, "With the help of Peng Zu and all the brothers, why worry about the great cause?" If it weren't for Peng Zu's reluctance to accept a stupid apprentice like me, Xu would have wanted to worship under Peng Zu a long time ago, and learn a skill like all heroes. ”
Peng Yingyu smiled, squinted her eyes and said, "I have something else to give you." ”
Xu Shouhui was a little surprised and asked, "Oh? I don't know what Peng Zu is talking about? ”
Peng Yingyu was not in a hurry to answer, and stated the situation of the Mingjiao in the north: "Han Shantong died unexpectedly, but the Mingjiao in the north did not collapse because of this, but under the leadership of Liu Futong and Du Zundao, it became stronger and stronger, starting from Yingzhou, breaking the Asu Guard, and giving the Yuan court a head-on blow. ”
Xu Shouhui agreed: "Yes, Liu Futong does have the talent to lead the troops, and he can make the Red Turban Army have such momentum in such a short period of time." ”
Peng Yingyu retorted: "Although Liu Futong is not an ordinary person, the rapid development of the Red Turban Army is not his own work. Although Mingjiao seems to be quite powerful, it is actually full of crises. ”
Ni Wenjun also knows the situation of the Red Turban Army very well, obviously he has broken the Yuan Army, and the morale is high, how can there be a crisis? So he asked in confusion, "How do you say this?" ”
Peng Yingyu knew that he would ask this question, and analyzed: "Although it seems that Liu Futong had to raise troops quickly because of Han Shantong's death, the time was also after Han Shantong completed all the major events, and during this period, it coincided with the failure of the Yuan court to change money, and forcibly recruited the people to govern the river on a large scale. “
"Han Shantong is indeed a hero, Mingjiao chose to start an incident in Yingshang, Henan, occupying the lifeline of the Central Plains, the banner of righteousness is held high, and the righteous people from all directions will inevitably be like-minded, which is geographically advantageous."
"In recent years, famine, plague, locust plague, and flood have occurred at the same time, and the people have no way out. On the other hand, the Yuan soldiers did not grow an inch of grass wherever they passed, and they did all the work of robbers! This is for people and. ”
"In the dark, Liu Futong will occupy the time, place, and people, and the defeat of the Yuan army is inevitable."
After hearing this, Ni Wenjun was even more puzzled, and asked: "In this case, shouldn't they have an advantage in the face of the Yuan Court?" Why is there such a crisis? ”
Peng Yingyu smiled and continued to explain patiently: "Everything is mutually reinforcing, and luck and timing are changing all the time. The Yuan court was able to suppress the Han people for so many years, and it had its own heritage, how could it be so easy to be destroyed? Liu Futong did his best to win this victory, but the Yuan court has never really taken it seriously. ”
"Now that they occupy the important places in the Central Plains, they have no ability to defend them, if the Yuan soldiers suppress them on a large scale, attack from all sides, and take them step by step, what should they do then?"
"Although the number of the righteous army is large, but the combat power is still too far behind the Mongolian iron cavalry, if the Yuan court changes the effective general to command, with the incomplete armor of the people's army, how to deal with the officers and soldiers with sufficient food?"
Everyone thought that the situation of the uprising was very good, but after listening to Peng Yingyu's series of analysis, they realized that there were so many hidden dangers, and they all had a sense of crisis, and they all fell into contemplation.
Only Xu Shouhui was quite calm, and said loudly: "Since you want to overthrow the behemoth of the Yuan Court and return the people to a bright future, you will inevitably have to gamble your life, what is there to fear about this difficulty?" ”
He immediately raised his eyebrows and looked at Peng Yingyu and said, "Since Peng Zu has seen this difficulty, there must be a way to solve it, right?" ”
Peng Yingyu nodded and said: "I have said many times in the past few days that if you want to complete the great cause of restoring the Han Dynasty, you must let all the forces join forces, otherwise you can only be defeated by the Yuan Court one by one." ”
Xu Shouhui assured: "Peng Zu rest assured, this matter is all up to your decision, and we will join forces with Liu Futong." ”
Peng Yingyu said with a smile when she heard this: "Since this is the case, as long as the stakes are considered clearly, these crises are not a good thing for us." ”
Xu Shouhui said respectfully: "Please also ask Peng Zu to teach." ”
Peng Yingyu turned her head sideways and asked the apprentices: "The official army is defeated, and the situation in the court is bound to be turbulent. ”
"Carefully select generals and recover the captured county!"
"Stop the river?"
"Find a way to appease the people!"
