The remedy of the Yuan court is just to cover people's eyes and ears, the heroes are gone, and the rule of the Xiao'er Zhijin family in the Central Plains will soon come to an end, and it seems that the Yuan court will not be able to calm the anger of the Miao army. Yang Tongzhao, Yang Tongtai, Yang Zhengren and other generals had thoroughly seen through the sinister intentions of the Yuan court, resolutely raised the banner of anti-Yuan, openly confronted the imperial court, joined Zhu Yuanzhang's Ming army, and made great contributions to the fall of the Yuan.

The story of the loyalty and patriotism of the nine generals of the Yang Tongguan family gradually spread on both sides of the Yangtze River with the Miao army's southern and northern wars.

Yang Tongtai, Yang Tongzhao, Yang Zhengde, Yang Zhengren and other cadres of the Yang family will completely break with the imperial court and lead nearly 200,000 horses to Yingtianfu (now Nanjing). Zhu Yuanzhang, the Duke of Wu, did not know the situation, so he hurriedly gathered an army of 300,000 and ordered Xu Da, Fu Youde, Chang Yuchun, Zhao Jizu, Hu Dahai and others to meet the battle.

Miao Jun striker Zhu Yuming took Yang Tongtai's name letter, which was related to the life and death of Miao Jun, and he couldn't afford to delay, so his one went the fastest. The vanguard of the Ming army was led by Chang Yuchun, and they reached the Straw Shoes Gorge outside Yingtianfu, where they encountered Zhu Yuming's troops. The two armies were less than two miles apart, and Chang Yuchun's brother-in-law Lan Yu and Zhu Yuanzhang's adopted son Mu Ying (formerly known as Li Wenying) were also in the army at that time.

When Lan Yu saw Miao Jun, he was furious, and he wanted to rush up and slash and kill, but Mu Ying stopped him: "Brother Lan, don't be reckless, I'll ask." ”

Lan Yu thought about it, it was right, if the Miao army was here to join the Ming army, he would attack indiscriminately and hit the enthusiasm of the Miao army, Wu Guogong would blame it, and he would not be able to eat and walk around: "Okay, just listen to you!" ”

Mu Ying left the army alone, rode a war horse and walked forward fifty steps, and stopped: "Brother opposite, you are the army of the Yuan Court, what are you doing in Yingtianfu today?" Although Mu Ying has lived in Anhui for seven or eight years and speaks Haozhou dialect, his Chengbu accent cannot be changed from the bottom of his bones.

Zhu Yuming is strange, this fourteen or fifteen-year-old young general can't be Zhu Yuanzhang's adopted son, right? He raised the name in his hand and said: "Young General, I am the general of Yang Wanzhi in Chishui Mountain, Chengbu Village, Yuan Ting harmed Yang Wan, and I came to join Wu Guogong on his orders!" ”

Mu Ying said: "Could it be that Your Excellency is Zhu Yuming, the four capitals of Chengbu Village?" ”

Zhu Yuming said: "It is under the line, presumably the general is the young hero Li Wenying?" ”

Mu Ying said: "Now I don't call Li Wenying, just call me Mu Ying." ”

Zhu Yuming said: "Good name, Mu Ying." He got off his horse, walked forward for more than fifty steps, and when he came to Mu Ying, he presented his name with both hands.

Mu Ying opened it and browsed carefully, and was overjoyed: "Okay, good!" The Chengbu Yang family is considered to have found the right person today, you come with me, and I will introduce you to it. Mu Ying also got off the horse and walked side by side with Zhu Yuming, chatting about family life as they walked, and after a while, they arrived in front of Chang Yuchun's army.

Lan Yu didn't wait for Mu Ying to greet him, he also followed, and said with a big grin: "I am Lan Yu of Fucheng Mountain, and this is my brother-in-law, General Chang Yuchunchang." ”

Mu Ying said: "General Chang, Zhu Yuming, the pioneer of the Miao army, came to join our army, and I would like you to take a look at it." ”

Chang Yuchun is a very humble commander, in order to show his sincerity, he immediately dismounted after reading the nomination, and said to Zhu Yuming: "General Zhu, and this life is ruined, the emperor has no way to persecute Miao Jun." You have come to take refuge in obedience to the will of Heaven. Please bow down to me! ”

Zhu Yuming hurriedly helped Chang Yuchun up and said, "General Chang doesn't have to make such a big salute, the Miao army will arrive in an hour." ”

Chang Yuchun said: "General, I have to change my mind at this moment, the Miao army is the Ming army, and the Ming army is the Miao army." ”

Zhu Yuming said: "What General Chang said is extremely true, yes, it is the Ming army. Is there a man named Yang Jing in the army? ”

Chang Yuchun said: "Yes, Yang Jing is now the deputy commander of the pro-army, and he and you are old friends?" ”

Zhu Yuming said: "An old friend who hasn't seen him for many years, I can't imagine that the Yang family will be so awesome in Haozhou." ”

Chang Yuchun laughed: "The Yang family of Haozhou and the Yang family of Chengbu will be of the same origin, divided into two, and the soldiers will meet each other, all thanks to the Yuan Court, and they will be together for a long time." ”

Zhu Yuming said: "It's all over, from today onwards, the Yang family will be the same family and belong to the Ming Dynasty." ”

Lan Yu said: "Brother Zhu, the reason why my Ming army continues to grow is because of the one hero and five tigers in the army. ”

Zhu Yuming said: "Oh, you might as well tell me about it-"

Lan Yu is a rough man, and he can't hide any secrets: "Yijie, it's the general Chang Da you saw just now." The Five Tigers are more complicated, and it's a long story......"

Chang Yuchun said: "Lan Yu, don't always wear a high hat for your brother-in-law, I'll talk about the Five Tigers." Does Yang Liulang know, General Zhu? ”

Zhu Yuming said: "Isn't it Yang Yanzhao, the eldest son of Yang Ye, Yang Linggong of the Northern Song Dynasty?" ”

Chang Yuchun stopped and said: "No, the Yang Liulang I am talking about is Yang Jing, the eldest son of General Yang Zheng." He has three sons, Yang Jing, Yang Chang, and Yang Zhu, and two nephews, Yang He and Yang Fang. The six are all descendants of the Yang family, when Yang Liuzong failed in the uprising and was moved to Haozhou, all of them are strong in martial arts, brave and good at fighting, Yang Zheng is a master, and his nephew is five tigers. ”

Zhu Yuming nodded and said: "I am lonely and unheard, and today I heard what General Chang said, and I knew that there is a sky outside the sky." ”

Lan Yu smiled and said, "Brother-in-law, aren't you a master in the army?" Why did he suddenly become Yang Jing's father? ”

Chang Yuchun patted Lan Yu's head: "Boy, learn a little, it's not advisable to brag about yourself, it's good for you to be humble." ”

Lan Yu replied as if she didn't understand: "Thank you brother-in-law for reminding me." ”......

An hour later, Yang Tongtai, Yang Tongzhi and other leaders of the Miao army led a large army to arrive, and they could not see the end from the beginning. Lan Yu had never seen so many Miao Jun, so he hurriedly crashed into Chang Yuchun's camp: "Brother-in-law, there are a lot of guests from our hometown-"

When Chang Yuchun heard this, he knew that it was Yang Wanzhi's subordinate who had arrived, and he was overjoyed: "Quick, prepare the horse!" Lan Yu took out the war horse, Chang Yuchun tidied up his outfit a little, got out of the camp tent, jumped on the war horse with an arrow step, and slowly walked towards Yang Tongtai and Yang Tongzhi.

"General Chang is heroic and majestic, it's really better to see than to hear." Yang Tongtai saw that the person who came was strangely looking, Shen Yi was resolute, and he was holding a tiger's head and a golden gun, so he knew that he was undoubtedly in spring.

"General Yang has won the award." Often meet the spring road.

"General Chang calls himself Chang 100,000, not in vain. Every time he fights with the enemy, General Chang is the first to go out, and he is the queen of the palace, and he has not tasted defeat, but he is a hero of the world! Yang Tongzhi said.

"The leader should be like this, so that he can win a victory thousands of miles away. It was because Yang Wanzhi broke away from the army that he was plotted by Zhang Shicheng. "I often meet the spring road.

"My uncle's loyalty can be seen from the sun and the moon, and suddenly the changes in Hangzhou, Zhang Shicheng and Dazhi Ti Mu are internal thieves, and they can't be prevented!" When Yang Tongtai talked about Yang Wanzhi's death, he couldn't help crying.

"The Yang family will suffer this accident, there is nothing wrong with the use of soldiers, and the fault lies in the imperial court. I, Chang, am also half a city step person, and this revenge must be avenged! Chang Yuchun said impassionedly.

"Thank you General Chang, I've worked hard to take refuge." Yang Tongtai and Yang Tongzhi said in unison.

"If the family doesn't talk to the two families, Wu Guogong is not happy, so how can he refuse." ......

Zhu Yuanzhang personally went out of Yingtianfu twenty miles to meet the arrival of the Miao army, and gave 100,000 quintals of grain and grass, countless burdens, especially Yang Tongzhi as the imperial striker, and the rest of the people were rewarded with 3 taels of silver each, which deeply moved the soldiers of the Yang family general group. He also swore that he would avenge Yang Wanzhi, just by virtue of the Miao army's thousands of miles of surrender, but he had to solve Chen Youliang first.

Since then, in all the battles to conquer Chen Youliang, the Yang generals who surrendered to Cheng were the first to take the lead, invincible, and Chen Youliang was defeated and retreated. Zhu Yuanzhang's strength is like the sky, growing day by day, and his territory is getting bigger and bigger, and he has become a real local tyrant.

Zhu Yuanzhang relied on Weide soldiers to get 200,000 Miao troops from Yang Wanzhi, Zhang Shicheng and Chen Youliang were frightened and hated, and what they both wanted to do was taken by Zhu Yuanzhang.

Chen Youliang and Zhang Shicheng were the top five princes in the rebel army at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, in contrast, Chen Youliang occupied the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, with hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers, countless warships and ships, and there was no shortage of civil and military generals under his command, who were ambitious, and more threatening and lethal than Zhang Shicheng.

Zhu Yuanzhang weighed it again and again and decided to defeat Chen Youliang first and isolate Zhang Shicheng. The two tigers fought, Zhang Shicheng couldn't grasp who was slightly better, he had always been cautious, he didn't dare to make a move easily, and Zhang Shicheng would not do anything to deal with the Ming army with Chen Youliang. Later, when Chen Youliang went west, Zhang Shicheng really did not take advantage of the fire to rob, and Zhu Yuanzhang's risky move worked.

In May of the twentieth year of Zhizheng (1360), Chen Youliang adopted the strategy of "capturing the thief and capturing the king first", and led hundreds of thousands of naval troops to directly attack Yingtianfu, the base of the Ming army, and launched a fierce battle with the Ming army in Longwan in the northwest.

Zhu Yuanzhang used the weak to resist the strong, so he designed an ambush to lure the enemy deeper, and the generals Chang Yuchun and Feng Guosheng led 30,000 people of the five wings army in front of the tent to set up an ambush, as long as Chen Youliang came in, he would close the door and beat the dog. Chen Youliang's army, which landed in Longwan, was arrogant and rashly advanced, when suddenly a salvo of artillery fire and shouts of killing shook the sky, and the Han army's position was suddenly in chaos. Chang Yuchun and Feng Guosheng waited for work, and led the Yang family to rush back and forth to kill the soldiers, and the Han army suffered heavy casualties, collapsed, and desperately fled to the water.

Chen Youliang ordered the entire line to retreat, but the river was ebbed and the tide was low, the water in Longwan was shallow, and more than 100 huge ships were all stranded, and they could not advance or retreat. Zhu Yuanzhang took the opportunity to command the land and water armies to advance together, but Chen Youliang was defeated and fled. Longwan was victorious, Zhu Yuanzhang turned the corner and disabled Chen Youliang's army.

In February of the twenty-fourth year of Zhizheng (1364), Zhu Yuanzhang sent Liao Yongzhong's troops to Wuhan to besiege Wuchang City.

Chen Li arrived at Yingtianfu, and Zhu Yuanzhang named him a candidate for virtue. A few years later, Zhu Yuanzhang sent Chen Li to settle in Goryeo out of a "sense of security".
