"Whoosh! Boom!!!! "Huge rocks and cannonballs like meteors smashed on the thick walls of Nanchang City with unstoppable power.

And the rubble that shot out because of this couldn't help but rush in all directions with unrivaled power.

"Xiangye, be careful!" Regardless of the superiority and humility, one of the guards hurriedly threw the fire standing in front of him to the ground.

Then, when a loud noise was heard, a boulder the size of a human head was immediately followed by the body of a personal guard behind the two of them, and the huge force that was difficult to match was immediately smashed into a ball of meat sauce.

"Xiangye, hurry up and go down to the city. Above the city wall, it is too dangerous, if the gentleman does not stand under the dangerous wall, you can go to the Tengwang Pavilion to command the battle, and the city wall is enough to hand over to those generals. ”

"Good, good. Let's go downtown! "I was almost smashed into meat sauce by a flying stone, and I was afraid of the fire in my heart, and naturally I didn't want to stay on the city wall for a long time.

Therefore, after being pulled up from the ground by his subordinates, a group of hundreds of people hurried down the city wall and rushed towards the Tengwang Pavilion located at the northwest end of the city.

"Bang, boom!!!!" Suddenly, there was a loud noise like the sky was falling.

"This ......" Hearing this earth-shattering loud noise, Huo Youchi and the others turned their heads to look, and a shocking picture couldn't help but come into their eyes.

At the northeastern end of the city, the tall and sturdy thick city wall, which was more than four zhang high and nearly two zhang wide, was smashed into a huge gap by the endless cannon stones of the Chu army.

On the city wall, the thousands of soldiers who were still fighting were buried in the rubble weighing tens of thousands of catties in an instant by a terrible scene like a natural disaster, and disappeared.

"Make meritorious contributions, get promoted and make a fortune, and you will be in the present day. Brothers, kill!!!! Outside the city, seeing such a scene, the soldiers of Chu who were like a black wave suddenly couldn't help but be inspired by the scene of the almost collapse of the sky.

One by one, roaring like this, thousands of Chu soldiers and soldiers couldn't help but rush towards this side like wolves asking about the smell of blood.

"Hurry, go, go!!" Seeing this, Huo Youchi can no longer care about any so-called majesty. At this time, he was like a water duck chased by a hunting dog, shouting as he walked.

And at this time, the direction of the hundreds of people in Huo Youchi's group was naturally no longer the Tengwang Pavilion in the northwest, but turned around and began to flee south.

After all, at this time, it is obviously impossible for Nanchang City to hold on. If at this time, you have to rush to the high-profile Tengwang Pavilion, it is simply looking for death.

"Pass on my military order, in this battle, anyone who can capture and kill the pseudo-prime minister and fire you red, whether they live or die, will be promoted to the third level and rewarded with a thousand taels of silver!"

Outside the city, looking at the soldiers under his command who were like a tide, from the gap that was two feet wide, poured into Nanchang City like a torrent. As the leading marshal of these hundreds of thousands of troops, Guo Yudang couldn't help but issue such a military order.

Huo Youchi has been the prime minister of Jiangxi for too long, and a few years ago, he killed Peng Yingyu, almost single-handedly, he beat the Tianwan regime that was rampant in Jiangnan into a lost dog, and his prestige in Jiangxi Province is too high.

If he escapes, the difficulty of pacifying the west of the Jiang will undoubtedly be doubled.

"Kill, catch the fire, you red, don't let go of this dog Tartar!!" On the front line, when Guo Yu's order was conveyed by the heralds as soon as possible.

During the long-term siege of the city, the soldiers of the Chu army, who had completely killed the red eyes, couldn't help but rush around in Nanchang City like a group of bloodthirsty beasts.

Furiously hunt down the city's routs and resistors as far as they can see.

For a while, the entire Nanchang City couldn't help but turn into a hell on earth. Wails and flames filled almost the entire city.

Some of these crazy soldiers even wanted to burn down the Tengwang Pavilion where Huo Youchi and the others were the headquarters.

Fortunately, such behavior was stopped by the generals in time, otherwise the entire Nanchang City would probably be turned into a sea of fire under the help of the monstrous flames.

However, even so, after the war, there were still tens of thousands of innocent casualties among Nanchang citizens. As the prime minister of the Yuan Dynasty, Huo Youchi was also able to take advantage of this opportunity to lead hundreds of horsemen and provincial ministers to flee south to Fuzhou Road.

……

"Nanchang City fell, and Longxing Road was finally outside my palm. It's just a pity that the thief escaped and didn't do his job. ”

On the eighth day of the first month of March, Zhang Shihua looked at the battle report sent by Guo Yu, and while he was satisfied, he couldn't help but feel a little pity.

After all, Jiang [] Xixing Province has a vast area and a large population, and you will not die if you are red, so to occupy Jiangxi Province, you will have to spend a lot of money.

But that's not a big deal. Now, provincial centers like Longxing Road have fallen. Without the head of Longxing Road, it was only a matter of time before other prefectures and roads in the west province of Jiang [] were conquered by the Chu army.

Therefore, Shi Shiran put down the letter in his hand, and Zhang Shihua instructed Zhao Ziyu, the official commander of Dachu, to give appropriate rewards to the front-line soldiers according to the system, and at the same time, he couldn't help but give an order to Zhao Wei, who was leading the army, to pursue the victory.

……

"The edict of the king: Longxing Luke, tens of thousands of Tartar soldiers and horses were wiped out in one battle, and they were all the work of the marshal. Yuan thief fire, even if you flee from the sky, under the defeat of the army, he will also be frightened and have no will to fight. Therefore, I hope that the marshal, take advantage of the courage to advance, and do not miss the opportunity.

The marshal's father, mother, wife, son, family relatives, this king has taken care of the marshal on behalf of the marshal, and hopes that the marshal "should chase the poor with the remaining bravery, and don't want to sell his name and learn from the overlord." On his day, pacifying the west of the Jiang, the day when the marshal led the army to return triumphantly, the king congratulated the marshal! ”

"Thank the king for his reward and thoughts, and the minister will do his best to serve the king to death. My king Chitose, Chitose, Chitose!! ”

"My king Chitose, Chitose, Chitose!!" On the top of the main hall, the generals who greeted the holy decree together also chanted in unison.

Seeing this, Li Chongshan, who also led the royal envoy, couldn't help but smile and solemnly handed the edict of the king in his hand to Zhao Wei, who was kneeling on the ground. and stretched out his hands to help Zhao Wei up from the ground.

"The marshal can have this heart with all the soldiers, and he will break the thief every day, and it will be effortless to think of it."

"Hahaha, then thank Li Xiangji. Lee Sang, please! Solemnly put away the edict, and Zhao Wei couldn't help but invite Li Chongshan to the upper left position after himself.

In this regard, Li Chongshan, who had just been officially promoted by Zhang Shihua to the right minister of Jiangxi Province, naturally did not refuse, nodded slightly, and sat there.

"Chang Xiqiao Chang Lord, because of his merits, has been transferred to Jiangling by the king and served as my Great Chu to participate in politics. And I'm here, speaking of which, I can be regarded as taking over Chang Adult's class. I just came, and I don't know a lot of things, so in the future, I hope that the marshal will give me advice! ”

"Hahahaha, where did Li Xiang say. Li Xiang rest assured, as long as Li Xiang's affairs are in the future, I Zhao Wei can help, and I will definitely go all out for Zhao Wei! ”

"In this case, thank you Marshal." The two of them laughed and laughed, and it seemed that the relationship between the number one leader in military affairs and the number one leader in government affairs in the westward province of Jiang [] could be regarded as a happy one.

So seeing this, the generals above this hall couldn't help but let go of their hearts, which were originally still hanging.

After all, Li Chongshan is also an old man who has long followed his own king, and this time, Li Chongshan still came on the king's order. If he wants to compete with Zhao Wei for power, then these generals and marshals in the palace must be the most uncomfortable.

Because whether it is Li Chongshan or Zhao Wei, in terms of identity and status among Great Chu, it is obviously not something that these military marshals and Ming Yuzhen, the newly attached Marshal Zuo, can provoke.

Therefore, after seeing that Li Chongshan did not express the idea of competing for power with Zhao Wei, at the next reception banquet, these generals who led the troops also showed their goodwill and respect for Li Chongshan, and the situation was extremely cheerful and harmonious.

However, compared to the cheerfulness and harmony of Da Chu, at this time, Huoyouchi, who was far away in Fuzhou, and the Yuan Court officials on Fuzhou Road, were not in such a relaxed mood.

"Yan Zeshan, the governor of Linjiang Road, led the city to surrender thieves, and more than 10,000 officers and soldiers on Linjiang Road also surrendered to thieves, and there is no barrier in the west and north of my road!"

The manager of Fuzhou Road desperately reported all this to Huo Youchi, but the expression on Huo Youchi's face at this time was blank.

Under the attack of tens of thousands of troops of Great Chu, as soon as Longxing Road, as the leader, fell, it immediately caused a bad impact that was almost dominometric.

One city after another chose to surrender to the Chu army, and one defender after another chose to mutiny.

Even if he fled to Fuzhou Road and temporarily saved his life, in such a situation, Huo Youchi could not gather any strength that could resist the Chu army.

And what is even more desperate is that at this juncture, the 30,000 Chu army soldiers and horses composed of the remnants of the Tianwan army are also killing towards Fuzhou Road non-stop.

The situation has reached such a point that the fire you are also desperate.

Even if the Fuzhou Road now includes the soldiers who fled from the Longxing Road, there are only more than 10,000 soldiers and horses.

Of course, Fuzhou Road has a large population. If you forcibly recruit young and strong people into the army, you can easily pull up 350,000 soldiers and horses in a short period of time.

But the peasant soldiers who were forcibly recruited in this way had no effect at all except for gathering numbers on the battlefield. And without soldiers and horses, what can you do to resist the unstoppable Chu army.

Therefore, the fire you are also desperate. And in despair, it is natural to break the jar.

It is at this juncture that you can't help but be like a 'why not eat minced meat' anointed supposing children, who only know the beauty of alcohol every day, and sit and wait for death.

……

However, what is interesting is that at this time, compared to Huo Youchi, who gave up on himself out of despair and only knew the beauty of alcohol, the Yuan Emperor Tu Timur, who had always only known indulgence and pleasure, miraculously showed extraordinary composure when facing the crisis of life and death.

Even in March this year, Mao Gui, who continued to have enough strength, finally took the barrier town "Jizhou" that guarded the capital of Yuan in one fell swoop, and pursued it with victory, and with extremely high morale, he took down Miaozhou, which was less than 200 miles away from the capital of Yuan, in one fell swoop.

It was only 200 miles, and the rapid march lasted only three days.

This distance, for the 100,000 Northern Expeditionary Army under Mao Gui's account, is completely equivalent to putting the sword in his hand on the neck of the Yuanmeng Empire. It seems that as long as Mao Gui and them use a light force, they can destroy the head of the Yuanmeng Empire in one fell swoop, and set up a heroic hegemony that can be passed down through the ages.

It was a group of generals of the Northern Expeditionary Army led by Mao Gui, whose eyes were undoubtedly red without being tempted by such prospects. I can't wait for these two hundred miles to come from morning to night, conquer the capital of Yuan in one fell swoop, capture the Tartar Son of Heaven under the tent, and burn the Tartar Ancestral Hall in front of the horse.

Compared with the high morale of Mao Gui and other generals of the Northern Expeditionary Army, it is as if the dignitaries and nobles living in the capital of Yuan were held by people with swords around their necks, and it is naturally self-evident how anxious they are in their hearts.

This kind of mood is even more prominent, especially when the privy deputy envoy Da Guozhen led tens of thousands of Beijing troops and died in Linzhou, the capital city only more than 150 miles away from the capital of Yuan.

Therefore, at this time, a group of high-ranking officials in the capital, led by Wei Sijian, also came to the palace and asked to move the capital.

However, at such a critical juncture, Emperor Yuan, who usually only knew great joy, strongly refuted the proposal of the ministers to move the capital at this time.

At this time, it was just in time for the general Liu Ha to lead the troops from the land of Jin and Hebei, so Emperor Yuan couldn't help but seal Liu Ha and Buhua as a flat chapter, and ordered him to lead the army in the willow forest one hundred and twenty miles away from the capital to block Mao Gui's seemingly unstoppable Northern Expeditionary Army.

The result of this battle process naturally does not discourage the author from saying more.

The lone army went deep and did not establish a perfect logistics supply, and finally lost in the army without food.

The hungry Northern Expeditionary Army was killed by Liu Ha and took advantage of this opportunity to be killed, so he had to give up Changlu, Cangzhou and other places, and returned to the east of the mountain with unwillingness.

The rout of the Northern Expeditionary Army on the Eastern Front naturally made the Northern Expeditionary Army in the middle of the route, which attacked Jin and Hebei to assist the Eastern Road, also suffered heavy defeats under the depth of the lone army.

At this time, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Northern Expedition set off by the Red Turban Army has little hope of success.

Therefore, in this month, for the world's righteous army, the good news can be counted as that Zhu Yuanzhang in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Zhejiang is in the middle of the month, taking advantage of the victory to attack the Jiangsu, Zhejiang Jiande Road next to Hangzhou. At the end of the month, the Chu army took Fuzhou with victory, and captured and killed the important ministers of the Yuan court, Dao Tong, Huo Youchi, as well as An Qian, the governor of Fuzhou, and Dalu Huachi Wankeer.

Therefore, the hope of destroying the Yuan could not help but shift from the north to the south again.
