After the victory in Hengjian Mountain, Zhu Yuanzhang began to carry out drastic reforms of the army!

From this time on, Zhu Yuanzhang's troops began to change in essence.

He changed the previous way of blindly expanding the number of people, but used it only and chose the best.

From the outside to the inside, it was different from the rabble of the peasant rebels.

From this time on, Zhu Yuanzhang's troops had begun to gradually break away from the essence of the peasant army and began to transform into a regular army!

After the victory in the first battle, Zhu Yuanzhang did not stop there, and he did not have the grand ideology and feelings of the old man who painted the mountain as the king when the grass fell into the grass.

In addition to stepping up the reorganization and cultivation of the army, he also set his sights on one place.

That place is a battleground for soldiers.

After a period of recuperation, Zhu Yuanzhang, who felt that the time was ripe, decided to do it.

And his next target: Chuyang (now Chuzhou, Anhui) in the south.

The soldiers are well trained, the soldiers and horses are assembled,

Everything is ready, and we are ready to go.

Halfway through the attack on Chuyang, an unexpected figure stopped the advance of the army.

This person's name is: Li Shanchang (the founding prime minister of the Ming Dynasty).

Name: Shanchang Li;

Font size: 100 rooms;

Population: Han Chinese;

Major achievements: Founding father of the Ming Dynasty;

Highest official position: Zhongshu Zuo Prime Minister;

Born: 1314;

Died: 1390;

Place of birth: Dingyuan (now Anhui);

Knights: Duke of Xuanguo, Duke of Korea;

Li Shanchang is well versed in Legalist doctrine, is extremely wise and strategic, and most of the things he plans are in line with the facts, so he is known as an elder in the township.

Li Shanchang's defection was far beyond Zhu Yuanzhang's expectations, and this was also the first time Zhu Yuanzhang really came into contact with a scholar, so he was naturally respectful.

In addition to joy, he appointed Li Shanchang as the secretary in charge (equivalent to today's secretary), and asked him for advice on future plans.

Li Shanchang fully demonstrated his outstanding lip service: in today's world, the brave and courageous heroes have risen up, but those who can really achieve great things must rely on the sages and people in the world.

As far as I can see, there are only a handful of men who can really treat the wise well, and most of the outstanding advisers are ostracized or ruined by the sword of a reckless man.

During the political turmoil of the Qin Dynasty, Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, rose from the common people. He was open-minded and generous by nature, knew people well, recruited sages from all over the world, and did not kill people indiscriminately, and it only took five years to achieve the foundation of the emperor.

Now the Yuan Dynasty has often been chaotic, compared to the Qin Dynasty, and the country at this time has existed in name only.

If you can follow the example of Han Gaozu, Bao Xian, and kill to a certain extent, isn't it easy for the world to be pacified!

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the person in front of him in surprise, under the ordinary and ordinary appearance of this person, he would say such an extraordinary truth.

This person is not simple, definitely not simple.

At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the person in front of him again, and he was no longer the weak scholar in his eyes at this moment. turned into an ambitious wise man who killed the world.

At the same time, Zhu Yuanzhang also began to change his thinking.

Yes, what Pavilion Chief Liu can do, why can't I do it?

It was from this time that Zhu Yuanzhang's ambitions swelled sharply.

At this time, he can no longer look at the gains and losses of a city and a pool.

His goal is to set his sights on the world.

This is the only belief in his heart that he has strengthened after talking with Li Shanchang, and it is also his ultimate goal.

When I was a child, since I could play the game of the emperor killing his courtiers, why couldn't I take it seriously?

Even if the final goal is not achieved, and the head is different, so what's the matter, at least I have struggled once, and this life is in vain.

If that's the case.

Even if you die, you can have no regrets.

Even if I lose, I am still glorious.

In order to win the world, fight hard.

For the throne, kill the world.

……

Now that the goal has been set, there is no need to hesitate.

Now the first obstacle in front of his eyes, Chuyang.

There's not much more to say.

Kill him and take the first knife with him in order to win the world.

Same beginning, different goals, but absolutely the same slogan.

Success, not failure.

The war is imminent, Zhu Yuanzhang's army ordered the general Hua Yun to be the pioneer of the way, leading more than 1,000 cavalry to attack Chuyang, and the wolf-like Zhu army should have been instructed by Zhu Yuanzhang before the war, so it was full of strength at the beginning of the war.

In front of the Zhu army, which was like a mountain of murderous intent, where was the opponent of this group of waste dim sum stationed in Chuyang, even if the Yuan army, which occupied mountains everywhere and had favorable terrain, still could not resist the Zhu army's almost wolf-like crazy attack.

The Yun army was defeated, and Zhu Yuanzhang captured Chuyang in one fell swoop.

After capturing Chuyang, Zhu Yuanzhang met three unexpected people who came to take refuge.

They are: nephew Zhu Wenzheng, nephew Li Wenzhong and orphan Mu Ying.

Everyone must remember these three names, because in the following wars, these three names will resound on the side of the earth, like thunder in the great war, and like Yan in the eyes of the enemy.

In order to get closer to each other, Zhu Yuanzhang adopted these three children as adopted sons and changed his surname to Zhu.

Later, Zhu Yuanzhang adopted more than 20 sons.

They have also made endless contributions to Zhu Yuanzhang's victory in the world.

After these three people, with the defection of people from all sides, Zhu Yuanzhang's people also expanded to 30,000.

The 30,000-strong soldiers will create an extraordinary era in the long river of history.

Its name is: Ming Dynasty.

After capturing Chuyang City, Zhu Yuanzhang began to rectify military discipline and recruit all parties to come and take refuge in his heroes to prepare for his next offensive target.

At this time, in Haozhou City, which is not far from Zhu Yuanzhang in Anhui, Zhu Yuanzhang's father-in-law, Guo Zixing, was in dire straits and could not extricate himself.

Because after Zhu Yuanzhang led his troops out to set up another portal, Guo Zixing's army was like a plate of scattered sand, lacking real leadership, and the current Guo family army has existed in name only.

For this army, which is like a shrimp with muscles and bones, it is like a pig with skin peeled, and there is no combat power to speak of, the other forces are not in sight.

If Zhu Yuanzhang is still there, Guo Jiajun's combat effectiveness is like a bear and a jackal and a tiger, and if any of them wants to move him, they have to weigh their own weight, and because of this, in the small city of Haozhou, several forces can barely maintain a rare balance, but no one would have thought that Zhu Yuanzhang would lead the crowd to separate, and the reason for Zhu Yuanzhang's escape, which they feared the most, was his father-in-law.

In other words, the results of Guo Jiajun's ability today are caused by their marshal Guo Zixing.

At this time, Guo Jiajun was like scattered sand, and there was no combat power at all, so there was no need to worry at all.

There's an idiom here that couldn't be more appropriate.

That is: cocooning oneself.

And at this moment, Sun Deya, who has always regarded Guo Zixing as a political enemy, saw this opportunity.

This opportunity is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for him.

Guo Zixing, who had always enjoyed glory before, also lost his most important backer because of Zhu Yuanzhang's separation.

In the past, it was up to Zhu Yuanzhang, the deep-seated owner, to beat the dog.

Now Guo Zixing, the lost dog, no longer has the protection of the owner, and he can open the door to bully, and he is no longer afraid of retaliation.

At this time, another bad news came, and the only little hesitation in their hearts disappeared.

For Guo Zixing, this news is like a bolt from the blue.

In 1359 (the seventeenth to nineteenth year of Emperor Yuan Shun), Peng Erpeng Zaozhu died unexpectedly because of the fire with Zhao Jun.

After this news was confirmed, Sun Deya had no worries.

He quickly united with several other marshals to carry out a crazy attack on Guo Zixing.

In the four-to-one struggle between the left and right factions, Guo Zixing fully demonstrated the fine style of the lost dog, like a rat crossing the street, in this situation where the manpower and financial resources are far inferior to the other party, he was bullied and excluded everywhere.

Especially Sun Deya, who has an old grudge against Guo Zixing, his old man hates Guo Zixing so much that his teeth itch.

In the past, when Zhu Yuanzhang was still serving under Guo Zixing, Zhu Yuanzhang's ability was thriving, and he was better than him, so he could only choose to forbear, and let him be in the future.

But now that Zhu Yuanzhang has been driven away by this second goods, this is equivalent to Guo Zixing personally driving away his biggest backer, and as soon as the backer leaves, Sun Deya no longer needs to hesitate.

Torture him, hit him, and as long as you don't kill him, nothing big will happen.

At this time, Sun Deya finally showed his hideous fangs, and soon after Zhu Yuanzhang left, he contacted the other marshal forces to squeeze and persecute Guo Zixing.

And after Peng Zaozhu died, Zhao Junyong, who had always held a grudge against Peng Zaozhu and Ma Shou Shizhan, but did not put himself in his eyes, naturally did not care about Guo Zixing's life or death.

This is tantamount to acquiescing in the efforts of the Quartet to fight Guo Zixing.

In this case, Guo Zixing's life will not be even better.

The dog that loses its home is punished by everyone.

His own army has no combat effectiveness, he is unreliable, his son Guo Tianxu and brother-in-law Zhang Tianyou are completely a second ancestor, more useless than themselves, these two people are even more unreliable, Peng Zaozhu's son who took over the military power after his death is difficult to protect himself, let alone deal with Guo Zixing's.

Zhu Yuanzhang, who was once his only backer, was also driven away by himself.

At this time, Guo Zixing must have regretted it, he really felt the dilemma of calling the sky not to call the earth spiritual.

In this kind of day of eating around and being humiliated, Guo Zixing can only choose to endure and live a difficult life in the cracks, and there is no other way.

Soon after, the good news from Zhu Yuanzhang fell into Guo Zixing's ears.

Guo Zixing, who has been suppressed for a long time, seems to have grabbed a life-saving straw.

Because of this, he couldn't wait to write a letter.

And use this letter as the last bargaining chip for himself to turn over and become a landlord.

After writing this letter, Guo Zixing was full of apprehension and hope in his heart, and waited for the other party's reply in the struggle.
