Chapter Ninety-Seven: Mandate of Heaven?! (Please follow up!) )

Muzhou Pheasant Mountain Zitong Yuan.

This is not the first time Fang La has come to Zitongyuan.

For the relics left by Chen Shuozhen here in Zitongyuan, "Tianzi Ji" and "Wannian Building", Fang La is also too familiar to be familiar with it.

But this time, Fang La's mood was different from the past.

Because, Fang La felt that the "Tianziji" and "Wannian Building" that were close at hand were really very close to him, as long as he waited for a while, and waited for the Song army and the Tiger Ben army to defeat the other, he could lead a million army to destroy the other side with a thunderbolt, and then he could dominate the two Zhejiang regions, ascend the throne and become the emperor, and then he led a million army to sweep the entire Jiangnan, cultivating for ten years, no, maybe it won't take 100,000, he can kill the Central Plains and completely defeat Zhao Song and dominate the world!

Bao Kang, who was very close to Fang La, saw Fang La's chest rise and fall violently, and knew that Fang La was dreaming of spring and autumn again.

The corners of Bao Kang's mouth showed a hint of sarcasm.

Since Bao Kang persuaded Fang La to be as strict as Li Cun in spring ploughing, and couldn't put all his thoughts on grabbing land and money, Fang Layang Fengyin disobeyed, Bao Kang has completely broken with Fang La, who is very talented and talented.

Now, the reason why Fang La takes Bao Kang with him everywhere he goes is to let Bao Kang see how beautiful he is now, that is, to tell Bao Kang, if I had listened to you to go to the Jingxiang region where birds don't, how could there be such a million male soldiers and the land of Kyushu?

And Bao Kang also wants to see Fang Laqi Zhu Lou, see Fang La's banquet guests, and see Fang Lalou collapse.

Therefore, Fang La and Bao Kang have formed a tacit understanding, and it can also be said that the two are completely competitive, they both want to see how far Fang La can go to fight the world according to his own ideas?

Hong Zai also saw Fang La's excitement, and he proposed: "Why don't you go upstairs and sit on that dragon chair?" ”

Fang Lamian smiled confidently and said, "Don't worry." ”

Yes.

Fang La is not in a hurry.

Fang La, who is still patient.

Fang La also firmly believes that he can achieve the ultimate victory.

At that time, he Fang Lajiang will walk up to this "Tianzi Foundation" and "Wannian Building" in a dignified manner, become the emperor, and complete his lifelong dream.

Seeing that Fang La was unwilling to climb the "Tianzi Base" and "Wannian Tower", Hong Zai did not persuade again, but said: "Holy Father, now my Yongle Dynasty has a million soldiers, and even if the Song Army and Li Cun have joined forces, they are not as strong as my Yongle Dynasty soldiers. ”

Fang La was very moved by Hong Zai's proposal, but he still shook his head firmly.

Fang La wants Hangzhou and Wu Di very much, but he can't touch Hangzhou yet, even if he knows that Hangzhou now has Li Cun snatching countless gold, silver, jewelry, grain, and grass from the entire northern Zhejiang region, as long as he takes Hangzhou, he may have three years of food and clothing, and at that time, he doesn't have to worry about what he persuades farmers to cultivate.

Hangzhou is Li Cun's base camp, as long as Fang La dares to touch Hangzhou now, Li Cuntie will definitely come to his aid.

If that's the case, there will be no one to help Fang La block the 500,000 Song army.

Speaking of this, Fang La was also secretly lucky.

Fortunately, Li Cun went to Hangzhou first, and then led his troops north non-stop, otherwise once the Song army crossed the Yangtze River, it would be really troublesome.

It was not until not long ago that Fang La learned that 500,000 Song troops were heading south, gathering in the Yangzhou area, and confronting the Tiger Ben army across the river, that Fang La finally believed that what Li Cun had repeatedly sent to tell him before that the Song army had gathered 150,000 elite Western Army in Beijing's Daimyo's Mansion may be true.

In this regard, Fang La was only more sure that he could be the emperor, and did not have the slightest gratitude to Li Cun.

- Fang La felt that the reason why he was able to escape this catastrophe was because the destiny of heaven was him, and he was destined to be the emperor, so even if any disaster came, someone would help him stop it, and Li Cun was the one sent by God to help him prevent the disaster.

As for the west?

Fang La didn't believe it, the 500,000 Song troops brought by Tong Guan did not have the 150,000 elite Western Army who were ready to go in the Daimyo Mansion in Beijing as Li Cun said.

See.

It seems as if all the difficulties may have fallen on Li Cun's head.

And Fang La, as long as he quickly conquers the city and conquers the land, constantly gathers his own strength, and when the time comes, he will lead a million heroes to sweep the world.

Compared with Li Zheng's hollowing out mind to press his life and fight with the Song army, Fang La can develop freely, grow rapidly, and change with each passing day, which is really not smooth.

Therefore, in Fang La's view, people's lives are destined by heaven, and they are not up to anyone, Li Cunjiao is too smart, but he doesn't know that people are not as good as heaven, in the end, this world has to be his Fang La's.

Fang La rejected Hong Zai's proposal with a smile: "Hangzhou is destined to be the capital of the Yongle Dynasty, and I borrow Li to save for a while, so what's the matter?" ”

Fang La said it magnificently, but he was saddened.

Where is Hong Zai really giving advice to Fang La, he doesn't want to be trapped in Chuzhou anymore, otherwise he will always have to rely on Fang La's snort.

But now the situation is here, Li Cun and Song Jun are fighting each other, Fang La just needs to lie quietly to win, unless his head is kicked by a donkey, he will attack Li Cun at this time.

If Hong Zai forcibly persuaded Fang La to attack Li Cun, it would be easy to arouse Fang La's vigilance.

There was no way, Hong Zai could only follow Fang La's words and say: "That's right, if you anger Li Cun and ask him to go to the Song Dynasty, it will be a disaster or a blessing for my Yongle Dynasty." ”

Fang La nodded: "That's exactly what I'm thinking about." ”

Just when Hong Zai thought that he had come to see Fang La in vain this time, Fang La suddenly said: "I want to win Xinzhou and Raozhou, and then send troops to Hongzhou to prevent the Song army from advancing eastward, Hong Aiqing is willing to take on this important task?" ”

Fang La was reluctant to go to the Jingxiang region, but this did not mean that Fang La would do nothing and let the Song army in the west enter the Liangzhejiang region eastward, even if Fang La did not think that Zhao Song could send a large army from Jingzhou to the Liangzhejiang region in a short time.

In order to prevent the Song army from advancing eastward, Fang La had to march west to seize the two important military towns on the Jiangnan West Road, Jiangzhou and Hongzhou, that is, Jiujiang and Nanchang in later generations.

Jiangnan West Road is the Yangtze River and Turning Yang Lake in the north, the hills in southern Anhui in the northeast, Wuyi Mountain in the east, Da Yuling and Jiulian Mountain in the south, and Luoxiao Mountain, Jiuling Mountain and Mufu Mountain in the west.

Under such terrain, if the Song army wanted to enter the Liangzhejiang region through the Jiangnan West Road, there were only two roads to take, one by water and one by land.

The waterway is along the Yangtze River into the Suhu Plain, and then from the Suhu Plain into the Liangzhejiang region.

On this waterway, Jiangzhou is located at the western boundary of Jiangdong, as long as Jiangzhou's special geographical location is well used to fortify the defense, it can prevent the Song army from entering the Liangzhejiang region by waterway.

If you want to divide the Jiangdong region, Jiangzhou will be its upper-class military town without exception.

Once Jiangzhou cannot be held, Jiangdong will be in danger.

Historically, the Sui Dynasty destroyed Chen, and the Northern Song Dynasty destroyed the Southern Tang Dynasty. At the beginning of the Southern Song Dynasty, Li Cheng was entrenched in Jiangzhou, scared the frightened small court of the Southern Song Dynasty half to death, and wanted to take it back at any cost. In addition, in the last years of the Yuan Dynasty, Chen Youliang in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River controlled Jiangzhou, posing a great existential threat to Zhu Yuanzhang in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River.

Fang La handed over the task of defending Jiangzhou to his fierce general Lu Mai, and prepared to use Lu Mai's department as the backup of Fang Qifo's department, once Li Cun and the Song army divided the victory and defeat, Lu Mai could lead his headquarters to go south by water into the Suhu Plain, and cooperate with Fang Qifo to seize Jiangning Mansion and Zhenjiang.

The land route is through Fuzhou, Yingtan, Shangrao directly into western Zhejiang.

This road is the famous Zhejiang-Jiangxi corridor.

The western boundary point of the Zhejiang-Jiangxi corridor is Hongzhou.

Fang La felt that Chuzhou was an important area to encircle Hangzhou, and it could cut off his territory, so that he could not take care of each other, once Hong Zai, who was not absolutely reliable, defected to Li Cun, his situation would be passive, so he wanted to transfer Hong Zai away from Chuzhou, let Fang Wuxianggong sit in Chuzhou, and let Hong Zai, who was not weak, go to guard the entrance of the Zhejiang-Jiangxi corridor.

This is Fang La's plan to kill two birds with one stone.

Hongzhou is not only the entrance to the Zhejiang-Jiangxi corridor in the east, but also the entrance to Jingzhou in the west.

Jingzhou is a treasure land of Longxing, Fang La is reluctant to go, and Hong Zai is hungry and almost hungry to death.

Let's put it this way, if Fang La hadn't blocked Hong Zai's road to the west, Hong Zai would have gone to Jingzhou a long time ago.

What Hong Zai never expected was that this pie would fall on his head so easily.

Hong Zai, who was trapped in Chuzhou and could not continue to develop, almost died of joy when he heard that Fang La asked him to go to Hongzhou to station, so he returned to Chuzhou on the same day, and within a few days he took his men and horses to the west......
