vs 30 The Central Plains is changing dramatically and is turbulent
Section 30 The Central Plains has changed dramatically, and the waves are turbulent
Time has passed, and more than a year and a half have passed since Xie Wuji occupied the Eastern Chagatai Khanate. Today's Beshbali City has undergone earth-shaking changes.
In terms of scale alone, it is more than 4 times larger than before. Moreover, the city wall is more than ten meters high, and it is made of huge stones, which is by no means a star and a half compared to the original loess wall. From a distance, it looks like a fortress of war. It is like a beast of the wilderness, which will devour all the enemies that come to it.
And in terms of prosperity, it is even more difficult than before. The old Beshbali City, as the royal city of the Beshbali Khanate, was also one of the largest city-states in the entire Eastern Chagatai Khanate, and was naturally luxurious and lively, but due to the tyrannical expropriation of the degenerate royal family and nobles, few merchants dared to come here to do business. Today, the city of New Beshbali is crowded with Han Chinese, Uygur tribes, Kazakh tribes, Kirgiz tribes, Mughal tribes and other tribes, and all ethnic groups coexist peacefully without any barriers. Not only that, all kinds of shops on the street come and go, and there is an endless stream of businessmen coming and going, calling for buying and selling, which is completely a mirror image of prosperity and prosperity.
To this day, this kind of scene not only exists in Beshbali City, but also in the entire Eastern Chagatai Khanate, large and small city-states, are quite prosperous and lively. Of course, this is all due to the painstaking governance of Xie Wuji and others.
In the past year and a half, the Eastern Chagatai Khanate has gone from being uneventful at the beginning to completely ushering in a wave of emigration. Since Zhuang Zheng and others returned to the Central Plains, they personally sat in the town and presided over the relocation of Han people. Thousands of miles away, trekking through mountains and rivers, the Han people who migrated came in waves. Among them, there is naturally the credit of Zhuang Zheng and others, and the efforts of the Five Elements Banner, but the biggest reason is also due to the erosion of the Yuan Court. In today's Central Plains, under the tyrannical and brutal rule of the Yuan Court, the people are struggling to make a living, and the hungry people are everywhere. And migrating to the Western Regions, although it is not far away, the road is not easy to walk, but as long as you can eat enough, as long as you can survive like an individual, how can those hungry people who have no way to live let go of this may be the last chance? Simply, along the way, all the prefectures, cities, and counties have the Five Elements Banner and each branch of the altar, or other anti-Yuan organizations to respond, although this road is difficult and difficult, most of them still managed to survive, and successfully migrated to the Western Regions, the Eastern Chagatai Khanate ruled by Xie Wuji.
At this point, the population of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate swelled dramatically, and the ratio of Han people reached a terrifying level of three to one. Coupled with Xie Wuji's high-pressure and Huairou governance policy, this forced other alien races to coexist peacefully with the Han people, or even initially merge with them. Of course, in the process, there are naturally some die-hard racists who try to break this harmony. And for this kind of person, Xie Wuji will never be merciful, and cut through the mess quickly, so that these people who eat the ancient will never see the sun the next day.
Under Xie Wuji's governance, coupled with Liu Kievzuo, who is a talented prime minister who can govern the world, the Han Kingdom of Eastern Chagatai has developed rapidly, and it can even be said that it is changing day by day.
And the Eastern Chagatai Khanate became more and more prosperous, which naturally attracted foreign races from other surrounding khanates. In other khanates, however, there were still many alien races who lived a life of hunger and cold, and even slaves inferior to pigs and dogs. These alien races who have become slaves are naturally very willing to migrate to live in the current Eastern Chagatai Khanate, and they will work hard to actively integrate into it, and dare not make any moves to pick quarrels and provoke trouble.
At this point, the wave of immigrants from the Han Kingdom in Eastern Chagatai became more and more prosperous. With the influx of foreign races, the proportion of Han people has decreased, but it is still two to one, and Han people are still dominant. This is precisely the most ideal state in Xie Wujili's mind.
The rapid growth of the population not only brought an opportunity for rapid development and prosperity to the Eastern Chagatai Khanate, but also brought more intuitive benefits to Xie Wuji, that is, it created the preconceived conditions for large-scale conscription.
Today, under Xie Wuji, in addition to the original nearly 5,000 elite soldiers of the Five Elements Banner, there are also a full 30,000 more troops, which are commanded by Xu Da, Chang Yuchun and Deng Youde. Although these 30,000 troops have only gone through less than a year of assault training, they are far from reaching the invincible elite division in Xie Wuji's mind, but they have also formed a good combat power. In the middle, there is naturally the credit of the scientific training plan formulated by Xie Wuji, as well as the personal experience of Xu Da, Chang Yuchun and Deng Youde, and the efforts of the sergeants to eat and live together, and share the joys and hardships, of course, it is not without the reason that these 30,000 troops are from those who have experienced hardships and hardships, or the reason why they are elite alien slaves, as long as they are willing to give them a glimmer of hope, they will definitely go all out.
Let's say that the days of Xie Wuji and others in the Eastern Chagatai Khanate naturally lived a spring breeze and horseshoe disease, but far away in the Central Plains, it was turbulent and full of changes.
Regarding the relocation of the Ming Sect's Five Elements Banner from various provinces, it was naturally impossible for Yuan Ting not to be unaware. Although the Yuan Court was corrupt and its treatment of the Han people was even more brutal and bloody, this was just a means for them to enslave the Han people, and how could they not know that the Han people, with a huge population base, was the foundation of their dominance, and there was absolutely no room for error. If the Mingjiao Five Elements Banner was just a small fight, Yuan Ting might not bother to pay attention to it at all, but looking at the posture of the Five Elements Banner, it was not the case at all, and Yuan Ting couldn't ignore it if he wanted to.
In this regard, Yuan Ting immediately took corresponding countermeasures, and launched a series of strikes against the Five Elements Banner and even the entire Ming Sect.
The mobilization of troops and horses may be the most direct and effective measure to stop the large-scale relocation of the Five Elements Banner, but in terms of time, it is obviously a little slow.
As a result, Yuan Ting first adopted the simplest and most brutal, direct and rapid measures. That is, to send those evil masters they recruited and enshrined to attack the sub-altars of the provinces of the Five Elements Banner. This may be effective, but it's definitely not a good idea. Yuan Ting also knew very well that this move was a double-edged sword, and while hurting the enemy, it was likely to hurt himself.
For a long time, there has been a potential relationship of checks and balances between the evil masters recruited and enshrined by the Yuan Court and the entire Central Plains martial arts, whether it is a famous and decent sect headed by the six major sects, or a perverse Ming sect known as the Demon Sect. Between the two, there is a red line that cannot be seen or touched, but both sides are well aware. Once either side crosses this red line, it will inevitably usher in the resistance and attack of the other side. The result will be a situation that neither side wants to see. Lose both! Maybe that's the only result, right? And now, this move taken by Yuan Ting is stepping on this red line. What will be the end result? Maybe only God knows.
In this way, the evil masters sent by the Yuan Court at the beginning can be said to have achieved a lot of results, and in just half a month, they destroyed the three sub-altars of the Three Elements Banner in one fell swoop, which made the three sub-altars suffer heavy losses, and then the matter of the relocation of the Han people in the three provinces had to be stopped.
Zhuang Zheng and the five people naturally did not sit idly by, and immediately responded, and personally went out to snipe the evil masters of the Yuan Court. It's a pity that the effect is not satisfactory, although Zhuang Zheng and the others successfully stopped some of the actions of the Yuan Court evil path masters, and caused them certain losses, but Zhuang Zheng and the others are lonely after all, and they are powerless for the large-scale actions of the Yuan Court evil path masters. Far from alleviating the terrible situation, the situation has worsened.
Fortunately, in the matter of fighting against the Yuan Court, the Ming Sect is still unanimous with the outside world. The first to strike was Wei Yixiao, one of the four major guardian kings, the "Blue Winged Bat King", and the five scattered people; After that, Yin Tianzheng, one of the original four guardian kings of the Heavenly Eagle Sect, who had already announced his withdrawal from the Ming Sect and created the Heavenly Eagle Sect, and other masters of the Heavenly Eagle Sect; In the end, even Yang Xiao, the right envoy of light, and even the four gates of heaven and earth, wind and thunder, who guarded the top of light, all took action. At this time, although the Ming Sect was far inferior to the two immortals who were in the world when the sect leader Yang Dingtian was alive, the two immortals who were left and right by the light, and the peak of the four major guardian kings, it was definitely not to be underestimated, and it was still a big force that could barely compete with the six major sects of the righteous path. Now that the Ming Sect is going all out, it has naturally achieved a lot of results, and the arrogance of those evil masters in the Yuan Court was immediately suppressed.
But unfortunately, Yuan Ting was not a vegetarian, and sent more evil masters to participate in the battle at the first time. Even a group of masters under the command of the king of Ruyang, Chahan Temur, have already been dispatched. Among them, the most famous is the two elders of Xuan Ming who have been hidden for many years. No one thought that the two most famous demons would secretly take refuge in King Ruyang and become the lackeys of the Yuan Court. In addition, there are also Tibetan tantric masters, masters of the Western Regions Vajra Gate, and so on. This time, Yuan Ting was really desperate to send out the foundation he had accumulated over the years.
All of a sudden, the situation changed drastically, and in the face of the menacing coming of the Yuan Court, it was indeed impossible to resist it with Mingjiao alone. After all, at this time, the Ming Sect really did not have a top master who could make a final decision, just like the invincible peerless master of the sect leader Yang Dingtian back then. And in the face of the group of evil masters who poured out of the Yuan Court, the Ming Sect was defeated and retreated, and even Xie Wuji, who was far away in the Western Regions, was shocked.
And when Xie Wuji planned to suspend his plan to continue to expand in the Western Regions and rush back to the Central Plains to help, although he knew that even with his help, the situation would be a drop in the bucket, he still did not hesitate. Those famous and decent families in the Central Plains martial arts did not continue to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight. After all, against the Yuan Court, they are also duty-bound and unyielding.
The first to strike was the Wudang faction, and the six heroes of Wudang came down the mountain one after another to join the battle. The five heroes Zhang Cuishan have been missing for many years, so naturally only the six heroes of Wudang are left.
Now that the Wudang faction has made a move, the Shaolin Temple, which is also known as the Beidou of Taishan in the Central Plains, is naturally not to be outdone, and the masters of the empty character generation have also gone down to Shaomu Mountain and joined this war.
Subsequently, the remaining four of the six major sects, the Emei faction, the Kongtong faction, the Huashan faction and the Kunlun faction, also took action one after another, sending all their masters out of the mountain to fight against the Yuan Court.
At this point, the entire Central Plains martial arts worked together to resist the Yuan Court, which made the unfavorable situation suddenly alleviated. All of a sudden, a situation of stalemate was formed for a short time.
And this situation, although it was not the most ideal, also calmed down Xie Wuji's anxious mood. As the saying goes, there are two sides to everything, and although the situation in the Central Plains was tense, it also made the Yuan Court no longer have time to take care of anything else, but it also gave him a great opportunity to continue to expand.
The situation between Yuan Ting and the Central Plains Martial Arts is easy to say in a short time, but after a long time, Yuan Ting really can't hold on to it in the first place. The evil masters enshrined by the Yuan Court, after all, were only recruited, and in the final analysis, they were all outsiders, and it was impossible for everyone to be of the same mind as the Yuan Court, and they would be willing to die for the Yuan Court without hesitation. It is even said that among them, the vast majority of people have more or less other careful thoughts.
In contrast, the situation of the Central Plains Martial Arts is the opposite. After all, the Central Plains is their root, and they have no way to retreat, unless they are willing to surrender to the Yuan Court. Unfortunately, this is simply not possible. Therefore, even if they have more or less selfish intentions, they have to fight to the end. The longer the time dragged on, the stronger their determination to fight to the death.
This stalemate situation, finally after half a year, Yuan Ting first couldn't hold on and had to be forced to launch a decisive battle. The Central Plains martial arts were naturally not to be outdone and brazenly attacked.
This battle lasted for seven days and seven nights, and the battle was so fierce that it could be said that the heavens and the earth changed color, as if the end of the world. Speaking of which, since Kublai Khan conquered the Song Dynasty and established the Yuan Dynasty, both sides have been very restrained from each other, and even if there is friction from time to time, they have been controlled within a small range.
The result of this decisive battle, it is self-evident, naturally there is no way out, it can be said that the Central Plains Martial Arts won the final victory in the last battle. Although, it was only a pyrrhic victory.
In terms of martial arts in the Central Plains, whether it is a famous and decent sect headed by the six major sects, or the Ming Sect, they have suffered heavy losses, and the masters have lost a lot. But on the Ming Sect, the master of the four gates of heaven and earth, wind and thunder, three dead and one seriously injured, the only one who survived the wind Wanli, will also die half a year later. Perhaps, only the Wudang faction and the Shaolin Temple barely retreated, but the masters who fought were all injured and needed to recuperate for at least a year and a half.
As for the Yuan Court, the evil masters recruited and worshipped were as high as seventy percent of the casualties, which could not be said to be a heavy loss. Whether it is Tibetan Tantra or the Vajra Gate in the Western Regions, the masters have lost a lot. It is only the Ruyang Palace, perhaps because he sent all the masters, so although everyone was injured, there were no casualties.
