In the twenty-sixth year of Zheng, after a year of hard fighting, Zhu Yuanzhang, who had cleared Zhang Shicheng's forces north of the Yangtze River, began to shrink his forces.

He began a strategic shift to prepare for his next goal.

This is also his second step plan.

He first ordered Xu Da, Chang Yuchun and others who were fighting abroad to return to Yingtian.

Then he ordered all the soldiers who were fighting outside to start the strategic convergence and assemble at Yingtian.

When Xu Da and Chang Yuchun led the Zhu family army back to Yingtian, Zhu Yuanzhang summoned all the generals to summon them.

There is only one purpose.

Meeting.

Discuss specific countermeasures against the stubborn forces of Zhang Shicheng in the south bank of the Yangtze River.

When the offensive plan was decided, two different opinions emerged within the Zhu family's army.

For Zhang Shicheng, a mountain artillery, Chang Yuchun looked down on him in his heart, so as a victorious general, he first put forward his own opinions.

He thought that Zhang Shicheng, who had always taken arrogance and stubbornness as his life criterion, was not worth being afraid of at all, so he suggested directly leading his troops to attack Zhang Shicheng's hometown of Pingjiang.

It's the same strategy as killing Chen Youliang.

Lead the soldiers and horses to raid his hometown directly!

After serving his nest, he will clean up the other forces scattered around him.

He believes that this method is simple, effective, and most importantly saves time.

Spend the least amount of money and get the best results.

In the face of this suggestion, Li Shanchang, the right prime minister as the head of the civil ministers, stood up and expressed his opposition.

Although Zhang Shicheng should have been conscripted a long time ago, his current power is not as good as before, but don't forget that this guy has money, this guy has money, he has not done anything else since he took Pingjiang in the past few years, he is bent on making money, so he must have a lot of savings in his hands now, and more importantly, he is not only rich but also he occupies fertile land, so he must also have a lot of food, for this guy who is both rich and well-stocked, I personally think that we should wait for the opportunity to do it!

There should be no rush.

Regarding Li Shanchang, a literati, a completely conservative opinion, Xu Da and Chang Yuchun, who have always been the main battle, stand on the same front.

He thinks that Zhang Shicheng, who has both money and power, is arrogant and extravagant, and those people under him are also very arrogant, they are completely a nest of filthy villains, they support their own troops, and they are even more rich and unkind.

We don't need to be afraid of these bastards who don't shit in their pits.

Now this opportunity is that God wants to let him perish, and we should seize the opportunity to kill him in one go!

In the face of the two factions of the main battle and the main peace, Zhu Yuanzhang showed his consistent offensive proposition in front of everyone. The opinions of Xu Da and Chang Yuchun were adopted directly at the meeting, and a specific action strategy was finalized, first attacking Pingjiang, and then cleaning up the remnants of the enemy in Huzhou and Hangzhou.

After the plan was decided, Zhu Yuanzhang, who seemed to have all the major events finalized, ordered everyone to adjourn the meeting.

When everyone left in a swarm, Zhu Yuanzhang was the only one who stayed.

The two of them didn't do anything at all to clear their own boss and leave him behind, especially Chang Yuchun, who looked like a blind bear, muttered in his heart, because he had a hot brain a few days ago and couldn't control his desires, so he was honored to make another mistake.

And the mistake made this time was forbidden by Boss Zhu three times.

What is the boss going to do when he stays behind?

I haven't had time to write the check that I made a mistake last time, so I won't let me write the check again this time!

Thinking about it, Chang Yuchun, who was sweating in his head, hid behind Xu Da, but looked at Zhu Yuanzhang head-on.

And when everyone left, and only the three of them were left in the originally crowded lobby, Zhu Yuanzhang changed his previous gentle tone.

He rehashed the previous question.

How do you think we should fight this battle?

Chang Yuchun, who was completely blinded by Zhu Yuanzhang, still took the lead in standing up and repeated his previous views.

He led his troops to Pingjiang, and then cleaned up the remnants of the enemy in Huzhou and Hangzhou.

But at this time, Zhu Yuanzhang changed the resolution that had been determined before, directly rejected Chang Yuchun's views, and expressed his opposition.

He believes that although Zhang Shicheng's current power is not as good as before, it is definitely not to be underestimated. For Zhang Shicheng, who was born as a smuggler of salt, robbing homes and extorting money was a common business in the past.

This group of people are outlaws.

But all the outlaws in the world have one of the greatest advantages, that is, they emphasize unity and righteousness.

Our good brothers, righteousness!

This is the standard equipment of their group, and it is also their mantra, and the blade knife and axe are their standard weapons.

For this group of outlaws, if we go straight to Pingjiang now, the other subordinates entrenched in Hangzhou and Huzhou around Pingjiang will inevitably come to our aid, and then we may encounter the dilemma of being attacked by the enemy.

So to be on the safe side, we should first clear out the forces entrenched around him and isolate Pingjiang.

After killing all the surrounding soldiers and horses, we will launch a final attack on Pingjiang.

In the face of responsibility and power, Zhu Yuanzhang, who has always been a leader, obviously has an advantage.

In the face of Zhu Yuanzhang's approach, Chang Yuchun quit.

He felt that according to Zhu Yuanzhang's approach, it was completely redundant.

At the same time, he also thinks that it is not interesting to fight a group of thieves, and it is convenient and fast for him to directly copy his nest.

After the fight, you can go home with your hands clapped directly.

Go back to your own home, find your own mother!

For Chang Yuchun's rebuttal, Zhu Yuanzhang, as the boss, must be unhappy.

He put on a face, pulled his face and said a word.

You animal, don't think you have done anything good in Taizhou, I don't know!

Dare to argue with me!

If the first attack on Huzhou fails, I am responsible. If you attack Pingjiang first, if something goes wrong, you are responsible!

In terms of the division of responsibilities, Chang Yuchun has no capital to compete with Zhu Yuanzhang at all.

Chang Yuchun, who touched a gray nose, shrunk his neck and didn't squeak again.

At this time, Xu Da, who had been standing by the side and watching the play, finally stood up and raised his own questions.

Boss, since you have already thought about fighting Huzhou first, why didn't you notify everyone in advance when everyone was there before?

Zhu Yuanzhang turned his long and flat donkey face, looked at Xu Da, and said a name under a gloomy smile, Xiong Tianrui.

This person's current boss is Zhu Yuanzhang.

And his previous boss was Chen Youliang.

The previous boss was Xu Shouhui.

This guy seems to be a job-hopping champion, he won't do too long every job, as long as he feels that the current boss is dying, and he will jump ship in advance.

When he changes jobs to the new boss, he will also sell a lot of confidential information of the previous boss.

It can be said that this guy is a commercial spy through and through.

For this kind of goods, Zhu Yuanzhang also made his choice.

He had to send himself a letter personally.

A word of mouth.

A message that made Zhang Shicheng 100% believe it to be true.

I can't say this taste myself, and Chang Yuchun and Xu Da can't say it either, because none of them will believe Zhang Shicheng if they say it.

But Xiong Tianrui would be different if he passed the word.

Zhu Yuanzhang, who is the mastermind behind the scenes, also believes that some other people who were present before can also testify for Xiong Tianrui.

As long as there is a message from these people, this originally very nonsense news can't help Zhang Shicheng He doesn't believe it!

This reply Xu Da was obviously obedient.

Xu Da, who has always been only in charge of military affairs and not government affairs, has no idea about the previous occasions and the identities of the previous participants.

And Chang Yuchun, who is firmly controlled by Xu Da as the second-in-command, is also obedient, and he is not afraid of anyone in the world, just the bald monk standing in front of him.

In this world, he is not afraid of the heavens and the earth, but he is afraid of this bald donkey.

Only this bald donkey could subdue him.

Only this wild ass could subdue him.

He's afraid of him!

Fear him from the bottom of your bones!

Well, the goal is completely determined.

Then it's time to get the real hands dirty!

Before leaving, Zhu Yuanzhang handed over all the 200,000 soldiers and horses assembled to Xu Da and Chang Yuchun for command.

And before the battle, he ordered Xu Da to be the general and Chang Yuchun to be the deputy general, leading the 200,000 soldiers and horses to crusade against Zhang Shicheng.

When everyone was leaving, Zhu Yuanzhang, as the commander of the first army, called everyone together.

As the supreme commander, Zhu Yuanzhang stood in front of everyone, looking at the current group of heroes on one side of the war, looking at this group of people who were like wild horses that had escaped as long as they were released, and the four donkeys could not be pulled back.

Standing in front of everyone, Zhu Yuanzhang's fiery eyes looked at Chang Yuchun, who was standing at the front of the team but didn't dare to look directly at him, staring at the bastard in front of him who looked about the same as a blind bear, and his tone was a little unkind, because he learned from a special channel that after this bastard took Taizhou not long ago, he gave the order to slaughter the city without anyone's consent.

Zhu Yuanzhang, who is the boss of this news, is very unhappy.

He didn't expect that Chang Yuchun, a bastard, slaughtered the city, not only did not change, but it became even worse.

For this bastard with an absolute heavy taste, he had to criticize by name!

For this bastard who dared to overstep his authority and slaughter the city, Zhu Yuanzhang had to give a key warning.

After educating Chang Yuchun fiercely, and disobeying the warning, Zhu Yuanzhang gave the order to go out.

For Zhu Yuanzhang, the battles of Pingjiang and Huzhou no longer need him to do it himself!

One Xu Da and one Chang Yuchun are enough!

As long as you kill Chen Youliang, the world will basically be in hand!

Zhang Shicheng, the idiot, will leave it to Xu Da and Chang Yuchun to deal with, the basic route has been finalized for them, and the rest will be left to them!

Play whatever you want!

Just make things beautiful, and you're good to go!

I don't care about anything else!

Of course, in order to cooperate with Xu Da and Chang Yuchun to fight, Zhu Yuanzhang also had to make a show and send another team of men and horses to feint to attack Pingjiang.

And the real focus is all on the capture of Huzhou and Hangzhou!
