Chapter 198: Xu Shouhui Becomes Emperor

And the words were divided into two ends, just when Gong Buban was hesitant in Xiangcheng and did not dare to march, on the other side, he was also the first and Wei Wang Kuanche Ge was leading the large soldiers under his command, and they were killing in the direction of Runing Mansion. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

I have to say that after there are more troops, it is really extremely courageous. At least his current courage is full, and at this time he doesn't know about the defeat of Gong Buban, so he is really confident about going south to beg for thieves.

After all, the army he commanded reached 70,000 troops. You know, 70,000 people are now equivalent to the entire population of two medium-sized counties in the south. When 70,000 horses were marching, the team alone stretched a distance of ten miles.

Moreover, this army not only has a large number of troops, but also the quality of its soldiers is extremely high. Among these 70,000 people, there are tens of thousands of guards selected by the north, and there are also the famous A-Ma Tatar army and the Asu army of the Son of Heaven's guard.

Everyone already knows about the Aso Army, and I won't talk nonsense here. The Aima Tatar army can also be seen by its name, and this army is the same as the Aso army, which is the elite northern army. Let's not talk about the combat strength of their two armies, just talk about their appearance, these two famous armies are absolutely glamorous.

With such an army of thieves, he didn't think that he would not be able to exterminate that group of ant thieves.

"Lord Marshal, there is Fugou City in front, and when you arrive here, the army will be able to reach the land of Chenzhou, which is occupied by the red turban thieves, according to the marching speed of more than 30 miles a day, and after walking for three days." A scout soldier, kneeling on one knee, pointed to Fugou City not far ahead, and said to the thief commander first.

And when he heard this first, he also nodded and said: "In this case, you give Ben Shuai and me an order to go down, let the army camp here to rest, and the next morning, and then give Ben General me a camp and march." ”

Hearing this, the scout retreated, after singing a fat promise. And after watching the scout retreat, he couldn't help but gather the generals among the generals and discussed with these people the next step of the thief plan.

Under the auspices of Brother Kuanche, who did not have any commanders, they naturally had no bright spots in the plan they discussed to deal with the thief. But even so, they decided on a city that they needed to attack first, and that city was the most cutting-edge city in the north of Chenzhou-Xihua City, which could provide them with great water conservancy convenience.

Xihua City is a county town built in the upper reaches of Yingshui, so it can be said that if you take a boat from Xihua to the south, you can directly take the waterway to Yingzhou, the place of Liu Futong's uprising.

Of course, after all, it is located in the north of the Huai River Basin, and the waterway is far less convenient than the Yangtze River Basin in the south. With such a waterway, it is already very reluctant to transport food to the 70,000 troops under the command of Yexian, and as for letting the 70,000 people under the command of Yexian go south by boat and attack Yingzhou directly, it is obviously impossible at all.

This is not only a problem of not having so many ships, but more importantly, at this time, the river in the upper reaches of Yingzhou does not have such a large transportation capacity, which can carry 70,000 troops at once.

Therefore, the priority of attacking Xihua City is only a consideration for them in terms of logistics and supply.

After all, in this year, when the army went on an expedition, the food and materials needed by the army were all transported over long distances with little manpower. If the civilian team transporting military rations is allowed to travel by land, then the cost of this journey is unimaginable.

Anyway, during the important period when Jialu was repairing the Yellow River, it was impossible for the people on this side of Bianliang Road to take on such heavy labor again.

Therefore, in his plan, in the next few days, he will lead the army under his command to attack Xihua directly, and after taking Xihua, he will lead the army under his command to attack Wanqiu, the seat of Chenzhou. Then, after attacking Xiawanqiu, he will divide his troops here, one is led by him to attack Zhenshui and Nanton, and the other is led by King Wei to attack Xiangcheng in the upper reaches of Yingshui.

And after both of them succeeded, Gong Buban should also attack the three cities of Ye Xian, Wuyang and Xiping as agreed. Therefore, when the time comes, they will join forces in one place, and they will directly take Shangcai, the northern gateway of Runing Mansion, and then take Ruyang Mansion City directly after taking Shangcai.

In real history, such an offensive plan was indeed successful at first. At least in real history, he did successfully attack Shangcai Chongzhen and captured the Red Turban General Han Yan'er, which dealt a great blow to the Red Turban Army in the entire Runing Mansion.

But now, with such a variable as Zhang Shihua, the plan set at this time is obviously not working.

However, the current Yexian did not know that Gong Buban had suffered a heavy blow in Nanyang, so early the next morning, Yexian was still the army under his command, and went straight to Xihua City, which was occupied by the Red Turban Army.

And the words are divided into two ends. Just when he led the army under his command and slaughtered towards Xihua City. In Qizhou Road, which is almost thousands of miles away, Xu Shouhui, as the Red Turban Army in the south, also led his troops, defeated the Yuan Dynasty's Weishun King Kuan and retreated in one fell swoop, and drove straight into one fell swoop to capture Qishui Xian City, which occupied the key points of the waterway.

This place of Qizhou Road is located in the south, with abundant precipitation and abundant land. In addition, a hundred years ago, this place belonged to the Southern Song Dynasty court, and the people of the southern country were good at farming. Therefore, the population of this place on Qizhou Road is very large. In terms of land area alone, Qizhou Road is only one-fifth of Nanyang Province, but its total population is even twice as large as that of Nanyang Province.

Therefore, the place of Qizhou Road is definitely "narrow and densely populated".

Therefore, although Xu Shouhui has only attacked most of the Qizhou Road and the small half of the Huangzhou Road, the army under his command has still expanded to nearly 100,000 people.

Yes, nearly 100,000 people. This is not an imaginary number, but a real 100,000 soldiers and horses.

So now, if you just compare the troops, Xu Shouhui is actually not much worse than Liu Futong. After all, in the two narrow and densely populated places of Qizhou Road and Huangzhou Road, there are too many people who can't eat enough because of land annexation. ”。

Of course, most of them are actually a rabble. The combat effectiveness of this group of guys is definitely the lowest in today's world, because even if they are fighting with this group of imperial court soldiers and horses in the south who have not heard the sound of soldiers for decades, they still need to rely on numerical superiority to win.

However, Xu Shouhui did not have a clear understanding of this. Now, after defeating the army of the imperial court and attacking the rich Qishui Xian City, he only thinks of two words in his mind, that is, to be the emperor.

Yes, after a smooth battle, Xu Shouhui, the leader of the cult, really swelled his ambitions to the extreme.

With 100,000 soldiers and horses, he is no longer satisfied with being only a so-called sect leader, and he is not willing to be such a dignified Southern sect leader, and he has to succumb to Liu Futong, a halfway monk, so after attacking the rich Qishui Xian City, Xu Shouhui, who wanted to be the emperor and wanted to go crazy, couldn't help but start preparing for his enthronement ceremony.

……

"Sect Leader Qi, the dragon robe that you asked King Weishun to withdraw from the group of tailors in the family has been made, please take a look." An old soldier under Xu Shouhui, holding a golden dragon robe in both hands, knelt down on one knee and said.

And after seeing the golden dragon robe, Xu Shouhui's eyes couldn't help but become straight, obviously all his attention at this time had been attracted by the golden dragon robe.

And after a while, Xu Shouhui, who finally came back to his senses, couldn't help but take a deep breath, gently picked up the golden dragon robe with trembling hands, and stroked the dragon robe with his hand. Looking at the extremely obsessive look on his face, I didn't know that I thought he was really touching his lover.

"Good, good, hahaha." While stroking the dragon robe, Xu Shouhui, who was a little crazy, couldn't help but look up to the sky and laugh.

And hearing Xu Shouhui's crazy laughter, the old man who took the dragon robe for him couldn't help but bury his face on the ground, knelt on his knees, and bowed his head to Xu Shouhui in the madness and said loudly: "The last general will see His Majesty the Emperor, long live my emperor." ”

Hearing this soldier's words, Xu Shouhui grabbed the dragon robe with both hands, and his laughter couldn't help but become even more crazy.

……

A few days later, that is, on the first day of the tenth month of winter, Xu Shouhui took Qishui as the capital, the country name was Tianwan, and he was called the emperor, and he changed the Yuan Zhiping, making the water of the troubled times more turbid and complicated.

And after Xu Shouhui became emperor, Xu Shouhui, who had changed his identity greatly, couldn't help but become complacent all of a sudden. Therefore, after being proclaimed emperor and vassals, Xu Shouhui couldn't help but issue an edict of appointment issued by him to Xuzhou Zhima Li, Runing Liu Futong and others.

In the edict, Liu Futong was officially appointed as Pingzhang of Jiangbei Province, and Li Li Er of Sesame was appointed as the governor of Jiangbei Province. However, his two appointments were treated as waste paper by Liu Futong and Sesame Li. Sesame Li didn't even see the messenger sent by Xu Shouhui, so he drove him out directly.

And Liu Futong directly split the body of the messenger sent by Xu Shouhui.

Looking at the edict of appointment written in imitation of the holy decree of the Song Dynasty, Liu Futong, who was commanding the battle on Anfeng Road, couldn't help but be angry, and tore the edict of appointment to shreds with both hands.

"Xu Bu Dealer An dares to bully me!" After tearing up the bullshit edict again, Liu Futong stared at him and couldn't help but shout hoarsely.

"Xu Bu is a stupid donkey, he thinks he is something, after pulling a group of monks, plus a group of rabble, to occupy a palm-sized territory, he is really the emperor. This idiot is completely looking for death. still wants Marshal Ben to be his courtier, and he doesn't pee and look at himself as something. ”

The city is very deep, and most of the time, Liu Futong, who has never been happy or angry on his face, knew that Xu Shouhui was the emperor and received Xu Shouhui's immeasurable appointment edict, but he couldn't help but scold angrily in front of his subordinates.

And seeing Liu Futong like this, Du Zundao, who knew why Liu Futong was angry, couldn't help but show a wry smile on his face.

Because as early as when Liu Futong captured Runing Mansion and received the news of the uprising of Sesame Li and Xu Shouhui, they had discussed that in the future, after attacking Xia Anfeng Road, they would use military power to form an anti-Yuan Red Turban Army alliance with Sesame Li and Xu Shouhui.

After all, the Yuan Dynasty was too powerful, and for the Great Yuan Empire, which had a state capital of hundreds of dollars, even Liu Futong was only a disease of scabies for the Great Yuan. Therefore, if you want to resist Dayuan's next attack, these three rebel armies can only win if they form a group and unite together.

But I never expected that there would be such a pig teammate as Xu Shouhui in my team. It has only been a month since the uprising, and a group of rabble has just been gathered, and they can't wait to claim the emperor and build the country.

You must know that in China, "there are no two heavens and no two earths", which is equivalent to the law of heaven. You Xu Shouhui called the emperor the founding of the country, and he looked extremely majestic, but in fact, he opened a super-large-scale ridicule, putting himself in an embarrassing position that was the enemy of the world.

Not to mention that the leaders of the rebel army like Liu Futong and Sesame Li, whose strength is equal to him or even stronger than him, will disagree with him. Even the Great Yuan Empire, which originally regarded Xu Shouhui as a disease of scabies, would regard Xu Shouhui, a pseudo-emperor, as a thorn in the flesh, and he couldn't wait to get rid of it quickly.

What will happen next, Du Zundao can guess without thinking about it.

After knowing the news that Xu Shouhui was proclaimed emperor, the Great Yuan Court would definitely draw a southern army to attack Xu Shouhui. And because of Xu Shouhui's proclamation as emperor, Liu Futong completely lost the possibility of forming the Red Turban Army anti-Yuan Alliance.

In the future, the rebels in various places could only fight on their own due to internal reasons. In this way, the possibility of the Red Turban Army's uprising winning is undoubtedly reduced.

So it's no wonder that Liu Futong is so annoyed and angry, because Xu Shouhui, the guy who called the emperor and founded the country, not only sabotaged his plan to form an alliance, but also made his possibility of developing to the south come to naught.

Because after Xu Shouhui became emperor, Liu Futong went to the south again, and there were only two possibilities. The first is to be the enemy of Xu Shouhui and the two forces of the Yuan and Mongolian courts, and the second is to nominally submit to Xu Shouhui and respect Xu Shouhui.

These two possibilities are obviously impossible for Liu Futong now.

Because he can't do it properly, he can't respect a guy who is not as strong as himself. So after the rage, Liu Futong could only let out a long sigh helplessly.
