Chapter 20: Strife

Xu Da walked up to Chu Liuyan, and Chu Liuyan said with some embarrassment: "Brother Xu, you are also here." ”

Xu Da nodded slightly and said, "Liuyan girl, I was looking for you, but I never saw you." Now, it just so happens that I have something to say to you. Xu Da said that he couldn't say anything, and Chu Liuyan was helpless, so he had to nod. She thought to herself, if she hid like this, there was no way. Rather than that, it's better to talk about everything.

Xu Da glanced at Chu Liuyan and said, "Liuyan girl, I don't know why you have been avoiding me since you came back from this trip to Zhejiang, could it be that I did something wrong to teach you not to be happy?" ”

Chu Liuyan thought for a moment before saying, "Brother Xu, it's not like this. It's just that after this time, I suddenly felt that the love and love in the world, and the love of children and daughters, are all very illusory things. I just feel uncomfortable and don't want to be disturbed. ”

Xu Da looked at Chu Liuyan's face and said, "Liuyan, don't think like that, everything in Zhejiang is just an accident." No one wants that to happen. ”

Chu Liuyan smiled bitterly: "If you don't want it to happen, can't it happen?" All in all, Miss Liu Yiyi Liu died because of me, and whenever I think of it, I feel uncomfortable in my heart. My father died because of me, my mother disappeared when I was a child, and those close to me met with misfortune. I am destined to be a lone star, destined to be lonely for the rest of my life. Brother Xu, what I want to say, do you understand? ”

Xu Da only felt a little cold in his heart, but despite this, he still said: "Liuyan, didn't I say it?" Everything was just an accident. If you have to take it on yourself, it will be very unfair to yourself. ”

Chu Liuyan smiled miserably and shook his head. She originally just wanted to persuade Xu Da to leave her, but she didn't want to talk about it, thinking of the previous things, she really felt sad in her heart. She was originally a very strong and resolute person, but despite this, she was always a girl's family, and when she encountered emotional things, she would inevitably think clearly.

"Okay." Xu Da finally said slowly: "Don't think about it so much, you have to think about everything." As long as you promise me, I won't bother you again in the future. ”

Chu Liuyan didn't speak, she nodded vigorously.

Then, Xu Da left. When Xu Da's figure disappeared into the arena, she had the urge to cry for the first time. Between her and Xu Da, they are like lovers and friends, but now, even such a person has been lost.

After Zhu Yuanzhang's army expanded, he soon captured Chuzhou. At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang divided the soldiers under him. Zhu Yuanzhang was originally the generalissimo, he named Xu Da as the deputy marshal, Chang Yuchun and Lan Yu as the left and right pioneers, and Zhou Dexing and Feng Guosheng, who came to defect, as the deputy vanguard. Chu Liuyan is a female military division in the army, when she captured Chuzhou, she made suggestions and contributed a lot to Zhu Yuanzhang, and the whole army respected her very much.

On the first day of the capture of Chuzhou, Zhu Yuanzhang's army was celebrating when someone suddenly came to report that Guo Zixing had come to take refuge with his family and thousands of scattered troops. When Chang Yuchun heard about it, he said angrily: "Guo Zixing, an old horseman, still has the face to take refuge!" I think that he tried all the poisonous tricks at the beginning, and tried every possible way to kill the generalissimo, but now he has no room to fight back when he is beaten by Sun Deya and the Yuan army, and he wants to take refuge again, he thinks it is beautiful! ”

After Zhu Yuanzhang heard about it, he was also ambiguous in his heart. And the soldiers were almost one-sided, so they said that no matter what, don't accept Guo Zixing. Guo Zixing is unreliable, maybe one day, he will take revenge. Rather than that, it's better not to provoke.

Zhu Yuanzhang pondered for a while and asked Ma Xiuying: "Xiuying, Guo Zixing is your father, I don't know what you think?" ”

Ma Xiuying's expression was faint, and she said: "The so-called marriage to my husband, since I have already married the marshal as my wife, I naturally want to think about what the marshal thinks, and I am anxious about what the marshal is anxious about!" The meaning of the concubine is also not to let my father enter the city. Otherwise, I'm afraid it will lead to disaster! ”

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and said, "Since everyone thinks so, then send someone to send Guo Zixing." Chang Yuchun immediately stood up and said, "Generalissimo, I'll go!" ”

At this time, someone suddenly said indifferently: "No." Everyone looked at that person, and it was none other than Chu Liuyan who spoke.

Chu Liuyan said: "Marshal, you can't drive Guo Zixing away. Guo Zixing is the marshal's father-in-law no matter what. He is now defeated and defeated, but the marshal refuses to cabotage him to enter Chuzhou City. If this matter spreads, I am afraid that it will be detrimental to the reputation of the marshal. ”

"What do you say, girl?" Zhou Dexing asked.

Chu Liuyan said slowly: "Guo Zixing's army was defeated and defected to the marshal, if the marshal does not accept it, I am afraid that if it is passed out, the people of the world will laugh at the marshal, saying that the marshal is so small that he can't even tolerate his relatives." When such a talented person in the world hears about it, who will come to the marshal? Guo Zixing is a person who is arbitrary and alone, and it is difficult to become a big weapon, so what can the marshal do if he lets him in? Such unpopular people will always find it difficult to achieve great things. ”

When Li Shanchang heard this, he immediately echoed: "Girl's high plan! In my opinion, since it has been done, it is better to do it more simply. The marshal might as well give up the position to Guo Zixing, so that the people of the world will praise the marshal even more as a person who can tolerate people. There will be more people who come to defect to the marshal, and the benevolent chief promises that the soldiers will come from the clouds at that time. ”

In the war to capture Chuzhou, Li Shanchang was a strategist, but he did not make any efforts, but many strategies were all made by Chu Liuyan. In his heart, he couldn't help but feel a little jealous of Chu Liuyan. Hearing that Chu Liuyan put forward this strategy in front of Zhu Yuanzhang, he wanted to make up for his mistakes, and immediately took this strategy for his own use, wanting to win Zhu Yuanzhang's favor.

Li Shanchang was originally a good person, and he was also a gangster with Zhu Yuanzhang at the beginning. He is also a resourceful and talented person, but in the military camp, as a strategist, he is not as respected as Chu Liuyan, which can't help but make him feel very unconvinced and a little jealous.

Zhu Yuanzhang listened to the words of Li Shanchang and Chu Liuyan, and immediately said: "Okay, good strategy!" Just do as you say. In this way, everyone in the world knows that I, Zhu Yuanzhang, am the teacher of benevolence and righteousness, and everyone will come to defect, and when the time comes, the strength will be even more expanded, and there is nothing to worry about! ”

"Marshal, never!" Xu Da took a few steps forward and admonished: "Marshal, don't do it!" According to what the last general can see, Miss Chu's strategy is indeed feasible. Mr. Lee's strategy is not clever. Please think about it, even if Guo Zixing is incompetent, if the marshal wants to regain military power, how easy is it? Guo Zixing has always been a person who has been dispatching troops for many years, how could he give up the military power to the marshal so easily? At that time, even if more people come to defect, it will not be the marshal's people, but Guo Zixing's people! Please take the marshal's opinion from Miss Chu Liuyan Chu and give up Mr. Li's opinion! ”

Because this is a discussion, Xu Da opened his mouth to call Chu Liuyan Miss Chu and Li Shanchang as Mr.

"Marshal! I think what the deputy marshal said is really unfair, although this strategy was indeed said by Miss Chu at the beginning, but it is not necessarily that what Miss Chu said is completely right, why does the deputy marshal have to adopt Miss Chu's opinion and not consider my suggestion? Guo Zixing, when he was in power, had repeatedly thought of a plan to kill the marshal, but he didn't succeed, not to mention, today, he is just a lost dog. Isn't it easy to deal with him? And if you want to win a reputation for benevolence and righteousness, I am afraid that if you miss this village, there will be no more this store. Li Shanchang said aggressively.

Zhu Yuanzhang originally considered Xu Da's opinion, but when he heard Li Shanchang say that Xu Da only listened to Chu Liuyan's words and refused to listen to others, he couldn't help but feel a little angry in his heart. He originally had a love for Chu Liuyan, and Xu Da did not hesitate to argue with Li Shanchang in front of everyone in order to defend Chu Liuyan, isn't this clearly selfish?

Therefore, Zhu Yuanzhang said: "I think what Mr. Li said is still reasonable. Think about it, Guo Zixing tried his best to plot against me, and once locked me in a haunted house and starved for a month, but in fact, Ben Shuai was not safe and sound. At that time, it was in Guo Zixing's territory, and now, it is in Chuzhou, which was beaten down by Ben Shuai and the soldiers, I don't believe that Guo Zixing can play any tricks here. And how many of the reputations of benevolence and righteousness can be obtained throughout the ages? If you miss this opportunity, you won't have a next one. ”

"Please think twice, marshal!" Xu Da clenched his fists and pleaded.

"Please think twice, marshal!" The soldiers have always believed Xu Da, and when they saw Xu Da say this, they felt that it was very reasonable. Therefore, I also asked with Xu Da.

And when Zhu Yuanzhang saw it, he was even more angry. He even suspected that Xu Da had wrong intentions, otherwise, why would all the soldiers be on his side? Could it be that Xu Da already has different ambitions for himself? Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang's face couldn't help but become very ugly.
