In March, spring flowers bloom.

On the city wall of Suzhou City, there stood a few dozing soldiers crookedly. Yuan Bingjia yawned, and when he was sleepy in spring, he suddenly saw a large number of black-clothed troops suddenly appear on the plain in the distance. Yuan Bingjia thought he was dazzled, and hurriedly wiped his eyes. When you look closely, the black force seems to be getting closer. Yuan Bingjia woke up several soldiers next to him in a panic.

"Don't sleep, everyone, there is an army outside the city, and it seems that the flag is not the army of our Yuan Dynasty, you all get up and take a look."

"Really?" Several other soldiers hurriedly stood up and watched carefully. I saw that the leading general was wearing a silver armor, holding a spear in his hand, and a white-maned horse under his crotch, and he was majestic. There is a big 'chapter' written on the handsome flag next to it, which is Zhang Sheng.

The Yuan soldiers watched for a while, and finally confirmed that the army outside the city was not from their Yuan Dynasty, so they shouted: "Enemy attack, pass quickly, ah....." However, before the gate was closed, it was shot down by the bow and arrow troops of the black-clothed army. The city walls suddenly fell into chaos and noise. The soldiers began to drop their weapons and flee for their lives, and few of them held their posts to resist.

At this time, it can be seen what kind of state the army of the Yuan Dynasty has become, and at this moment, the first thought of the soldiers is not to defend the city, but to quickly drop their weapons and flee for their lives.

Zhang Sheng, who was in the lead, couldn't help but show a trace of contempt, such a Yuan soldier is still worth going out in person? Just send a regiment of the First Army and clean it up. It's just the first battle, to win the beauty, to show the world the strength of their Ten Thousand Worlds Alliance. Therefore, the capture of Suzhou still sent the main force to come, but I didn't expect the Yuan soldiers to be more vulnerable and vulnerable than they imagined.

"Overthrow the Yuan and Mongolia and restore China. Kill me! ”

"Kill..... Kill...."

Zhang Sheng pointed forward, and the First Army under his command was like a black torrent that drowned the few Yuan and Mongolian troops who were still resisting, and the First Army quickly occupied Suzhou City.

On the other hand, the Second Army outside Yangzhou City and the Third Army outside Hangzhou City also played all the way, and easily occupied Yangzhou City and Suzhou City without encountering any decent resistance.

After occupying these cities, Li Xiaoye quickly ordered people to post notices at the city gates. Inform the people that the army of the Wanjie Alliance will not oppress the people, but will divide the land equally among the peasants, and open warehouses to release grain to relieve the people who have no food on the roadside.

In the beginning, the people did not believe, where did the ruler come from would give the land equally to the poor peasants, and also give free relief to the poor people? But later, as time went by, the people gradually discovered that there were really warehouses near the granary to put grain, and some landless farmers were also allocated land, so one by one the people were grateful to the Wanjie Alliance. The law and order in these cities also quickly stabilized.

Li Xiaoye didn't feel much pride in quickly winning these cities, because this was something that had been expected. The Wanjie Alliance has been operating in these places for so many years, if you can't even take these cities, then don't rebel, just go home honestly and wash and sleep.

After resting for two days, Li Xiaoye ordered people to recruit troops on the spot to replenish the troops, while leaving only a small part of the regular army to defend the city, and on the other hand, he asked the three major armies to use these three cities as a base to continue to conquer the surrounding areas and occupy the entire Jiangnan as soon as possible. The conquest of the Ten Thousand Worlds Alliance was unstoppable along the way, and the Yuan soldiers fled one after another. Coupled with the brothers of the dark hall who had already been ambushed and the various rudders of the Ming Sect, it was only a matter of time before the city was broken. In less than a month, the troops of the Wanjie Alliance had occupied most of Jiangnan.

It wasn't until a month later that the news of the loss of the Jiangnan region reached Dadu. The entire government and the opposition were shaken, and the emperor was furious, and urgently summoned the king of Ruyang and the lord of Minmin to the court to discuss the crusade.

Above the court, the emperor Long Yan was furious. The ministers bowed their heads and remained silent, for fear of angering the emperor. At this moment, the eighth prince took the lead in standing up and speaking.

"Your Majesty, this traitor is powerful, and it has been premeditated for a long time. Therefore, I implore Your Majesty to send troops to suppress it as soon as possible, so as to ensure the eternal existence of our Great Yuan country. ”

"Well, the Eighth Prince is right. I wonder which Qing family is willing to go to the Jiangnan region to conquer the traitors? The Emperor nodded and said.

"This ......" The generals looked at each other and lowered their heads. No one dared to take the initiative to take the post of generalissimo of Pingnan. Everyone is not stupid, and it can be seen that the traitor is menacing this time. It is rumored that there are more than 100,000 traitors this time. I haven't trained well in many years, isn't it sent to death when I go up?

The emperor saw that this group of military generals under his command were not angry, and they raised troops for a thousand days and used them for a while, but now when it was time to fight, they were all scared and shrank their heads, what is the use of asking them to be these generals? If it weren't for the fact that these generals were representatives of various tribal forces, killing them would probably cause civil strife, and the emperor would have taken these useless guys to feed the dogs.

Zhao Min couldn't help but feel gloomy when he saw that these generals in the DPRK and China were useless. couldn't help but compare them with Li Xiaoye, and found that the gap was too big, and it was not on the same level at all.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the king of Ruyang has been quelling rebellions all year round, and he must have enough experience in dealing with the rebels. Therefore, the minister felt that it was more appropriate to send the king of Ruyang. The lord of Minmin County is quick and intelligent, and is known as the female Zhuge in the army. Therefore, the minister believes that the lord of Minmin will definitely be able to join forces with the king of Ruyang to break the enemy, quell the rebellion as soon as possible, and return the Great Yuan Dynasty to peace. ”

The eighth prince is an understanding person, and it can be seen that only the military generals of the Manchu Dynasty can be relied on by the people of the Ruyang Palace, so he recommended the king of Ruyang and the lord of Minmin.

The Emperor pondered for a moment, then nodded. said: "In this case, I will make the king of Ruyang the generalissimo of Pingnan, in charge of all the military affairs in the south of the Yangtze River. The lord of Minmin was a military advisor, and assisted his father, King Ruyang, to fight against the traitors together, and set out on the same day. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." King Ruyang and Zhao Min knelt down at the same time to receive the order.

"Report ...... Urgent military intelligence. "When the king of Ruyang had just received the holy decree, there was an urgent military situation from a herald outside the palace gate.

"What's the matter, report it quickly."

"Your Majesty, recently, popular uprisings broke out in Lingnan, Gannan, Liangzhou, Shuzhong, Qinchuan, North China and other regions at the same time. Now the military camps everywhere are asking for help, asking to suppress the Mingjiao uprising. ”

Although he had long expected that it would not be a good thing, when he heard the news, the elderly emperor felt a surge of qi and blood rushing to his brain, and he almost fainted directly. The Emperor took a deep breath and stood up suddenly, his hands and feet trembling a little. Such a strong judgment broke out everywhere, and it was impossible for the emperor not to know what it meant. Could it be that the rivers and mountains of the Great Yuan Dynasty are about to end in my hands?

"Your Majesty, the dragon body is safe." Seeing that the emperor was a little shaky, the surrounding ministers hurriedly surrounded him.

"Hmph, give me a step down, I don't need someone to help me yet." The emperor shook off the hand of the little eunuch beside him. He sat back on the dragon chair.

"King Ruyang, the rebellion in Jiangnan will give you 100,000 troops, and the rebellion will be quelled within half a year, do you think it is feasible?"

As soon as Zhao Min wanted to say something, he was stopped by King Ruyang with his eyes.

"Yes, Your Majesty, the minister will take the order." The respectful command of the king of Ruyang.

Seeing that King Ruyang had accepted the order, the emperor nodded with satisfaction. As for the rebellion caused by the remaining Mingjiao rudders, leave it to your own eldest prince and third prince to quell the rebellion. It is just a good test of their ability to deal with things, and whoever handles it well will be the future emperor.

After the next court, Zhao Min, who returned to the mansion, couldn't help but complain to his father: "Dad, Your Majesty gave us 100,000 troops, and only gave us half a year, how can this be able to quell the rebellion?" There were more than 100,000 rebels in the Jiangnan area, and after they occupied the cities in various places, they continued to recruit troops, and the number of troops was conservatively estimated to be more than 200,000. How can we win? ”

"Minmin, don't you see it, Your Majesty is secretly tricking us into the Ruyang Palace. Previously, I suggested to His Majesty that the whole army should go to Jiangnan as soon as possible to prepare for the war, but His Majesty rejected it in the name of building a palace. Now that the incident has happened, it is tantamount to slapping His Majesty in the face, do you think Your Majesty can arrange anything good for me? ”

King Ruyang continued: "Later, Your Majesty sent the eldest prince and the third prince to different places to quell the rebellion, making it clear that they wanted to test the two princes. When is it all and what prince are you still choosing in this way? Doesn't Your Majesty know that you should send good conscriptors to quell the rebellion in time and stabilize people's hearts? At this time, this kind of trick is still played. Alas, the king's heart is unpredictable. ”

Looking at his dejected father, Zhao Min's heart couldn't help but feel a little gloomy: Is this your means, Li Xiaoye, do you want to turn your hands into clouds and cover your hands for rain, so that the world is in your hands?
