Chapter 136: Surrender to help the battle
"Old gang leader Hong really deserves to be the number one gang leader in the world! Not only is he a great figure in the rivers and lakes, but he is also a rare hero among my Han people!" After the burial stopped, He Wenhui and the others immediately stepped forward to offer their condolences. Seeing this, Yang Dingtian, who was extremely desolate in his heart, had no intention of saying more, and then stepped forward to worship for a while, and then returned to the camp with everyone. After Hong Qi's death, his deeds were spread; people not only built a mountain of rocks here, piled up a 'Beggar's King Mountain', but also built a 'Beggar's King Temple' in his burial place to worship from time to time! Just as people wished, after the completion of the 'Beggar's King Temple'; not only were there often rumors of Hong Qi's appearance, but also there were supernatural things happening here from time to time. This is a digression, so I won't go into too much detail here.
also said that Yang Dingtian and others who returned to the camp. At this time, after an astonishing investigation, I found out. Thousands of men and horses of this remnant of Fang Guozhen actually went to the sea overnight and fled without a trace! Yang Dingtian had no intention of fighting between the two armies, but when he saw that Hong Qihou had already settled everything, he said his intention on the spot after hearing the report. But when Hu Yanrui and the others heard that Yang Dingtian was leaving, where were they willing to do it?
Knowing that the two of them were worried that the Tieguan Daoist would come to make trouble again, they thought that they would do their best for Hong Qihou's affairs, and Yang Dingtian had to promise to linger for a few more days before leaving. Seeing that Yang Dingtian nodded in agreement, Hu Yanrui and the others were overjoyed, so while serving carefully, they stepped up their efforts to probe the treasures of that country in order to win a victory. But after a period of time, except for encountering and destroying some remnants of Fang Guozhen, he has never been able to find the slightest trace of him.
"Could it be that this Fang Guozhen escaped into the Dragon Palace?" That is, just when Hu Yanrui and the others were feeling anxious, on this day, they suddenly heard that Fang Guozhen actually took the initiative to find the door. After learning that he was here to have an important interview with Yang Dingtian, Hu Yanrui did not dare to slack off, so he arranged for the two to meet at that time. After Yang Dingtian met him, he asked the reason for this, and after Fang Guozhen touted it wantonly, he took out a letter and enshrined it.
Yang Dingtian took it and took a look, only to see that at the beginning of King Wu's shengyue, the following gist said: The minister heard that the sky is all-encompassing, the earth is all-encompassing, and the king is the law of heaven and earth, and he is all-encompassing to people. For a long time, the minister has received the grace of the Lord, and he has not dared to do anything to cut himself off from heaven and earth. Therefore, a show of foolish loyalty. The minister was originally a mediocre person, and in the face of this eventful season, he raised troops and islands, and he had neither the help of his father and brother, nor the ambition of the emperor to act on his own. Now, if the Lord does not remember the old evils, I will look at the afterglow of the sun and the moon, and look at the afterglow of the rain and dew. And the lord is honest and sends me to garrison the township, just like Wu Yue before, the ministers will abide by the treaty and dare not make any more troubles. As for this war, it was only caused by the cousin's irritable temperament and secretly sending troops to provoke. I trembled in my heart, so I sent my defenders to meet him. However, it eventually floated into the sea. Why? The filial son accepts the punishment of his father if it is a slight rebuke with a rod. If it is a heavy rod, it will escape, and the situation is similar to that of the minister. I wanted to tie myself up immediately and go to the court to plead guilty, but I was afraid of being punished with an axe. In this way, if the world does not know about my past sins, they will say that the Lord cannot tolerate the ministers, and will not this affect the great virtues of heaven and earth?......
"Ah? It turns out that this is a letter of surrender to Zhu Yuanzhang!" After reading a letter of surrender with extremely sincere words, Yang Dingtian couldn't help but feel compassion in addition to being moved. But looking down further, I saw that Ming Guozhen was written on the inscription, and I couldn't help but feel surprised. When asked the reason, Fang Guozhen immediately said something.
It turned out that since he saw that the Tieguandao people were defeated that day, Fang Guozhen knew that he was not the opponent of Zhu Yuanzhang's army, so he immediately led his troops to flee to the sea to avoid his edge. But after falling to his feet, he later thought that it was not a long time to dodge, and at that time, Fang Guozhen had the idea of asking for peace. But when he thought of the incident with Zhu Yuanzhang back then, he was worried that he would retaliate for his revenge if he had accumulated too much resentment, and he couldn't help but hesitate immediately. At this time, after learning that Zhu Yuanzhang was not only a disciple of the Ming Sect, but also that it was the current Ming Sect leader who defeated the master and apprentice of the Tieguan Daoist that day, Fang Guozhen was ready to send a letter and came to ask to meet Yang Dingtian...... 'I see! I believe that what the general said is the truth! But how can such a major event easily change his name and surname?' After hearing these words, Yang Dingtian, who had a jaw in a row, blurted out.
"The Yang Sect Master is powerful and mighty...... no one in the world," Fang Guozhen replied categorically, and said, "In the next place, I intend to ask the Yang Sect Master to say on my behalf! But in order to be able to get the protection of the Ming Sect for a long time in the future and avoid being an outsider, I changed my surname to show my loyalty to the Ming Sect." After finishing speaking, Fang Guozhen's face immediately showed a look of determination.
It turns out that you just want to become a disciple of my Ming Sect, but you can't be careless in the slightest about what you are doing! You still need this, like this...... Looking at Fang Guozhen's expression, after he had made the entrance ceremony, Yang Dingtian should go up and teach the opportunity. So after rewriting the descending book, Yang Dingtian sent someone to Zhu Yuanzhang.
A few days later, when Zhu Yuanzhang received the surrender letter, he learned that Fang Guozhen had become a disciple of the Ming Sect; It was precisely because of his identity as a famous disciple of Yangding Tianji that Fang Guozhen became the only one among the leaders of several rebel armies at that time who was able to die a good death after surrendering.
After getting the news that Fang Guozhen had been properly settled, he saw that things were over here, and Yang Dingtian immediately returned to Mingjiao. But after returning to Guangmingding, not long after that, he received an invitation from Zhu Yuanzhang. Seeing that the words in the letter were quite earnest, Yang Dingtian did not think much about it, so he rushed to Yingtian (now Nanjing) with a group of brothers.
After coming to the palace to meet Zhu Yuanzhang, he asked the reason for this, and Zhu Yuanzhang said something immediately. It turned out that although Zhu Yuanzhang had previously destroyed Chen Youliang, Zhang Shicheng, and other separatist forces in succession and occupied the Jiangbei region; he was worried about the situation in which most of the Central Plains and most of the land south of the Yangtze River were still under the control of the Yuan Dynasty; he put forward the program of 'expelling Hu Lu, restoring China, establishing Chen Ji, and relieving the people,' in order to completely overthrow the Yuan Dynasty and unify the world! During this period, he learned that there were immortal deeds circulating in the southwest and Shuzhong in Yangdingtian, and he succeeded in one fell swoop in order to seek the help of Mingjiao; Zhu Yuanzhang specially issued an invitation......
"Although General Zhu's idea is good, after all, we are only a sect of rivers and lakes! What kind of strength can we do?" After hearing these words, Yang Dingtian immediately became alert. "The disciple did not dare to make the sect master personally driven! I only asked the sect master to send a powerful person to echo the disciples in the sect here; in this way, great things would definitely be accomplished!" Seeing Yang Dingtian's displeasured face, Zhu Yuanzhang explained in surprise. Yang Dingtian just wanted to say more, but he heard Yang Xiao next to him answer, and said, "What Zhu Yuanzhang said is good! Just our Mingjiao name can be worth his millions of male soldiers! It will definitely make the Yuan soldiers frightened!
Hearing the words and looking at the situation, Yang Dingtian couldn't help but look around and dodge. "There is no need to hesitate to the sect leader!" this Tartar has been oppressing our Han people for a long time, if we can overthrow them, why not establish a Han court?" As soon as these words came out, Yang Dingtian couldn't help but think secretly. Since the Yuan Dynasty was in charge of the world, the Han people were not only oppressed by it from time to time, but they also had all kinds of industries abandoned and closed everywhere! In this way, it is indeed a matter of great ...... to be 'Thinking of this, Yang Dingtian decided on the spot to send Yin Tianzheng and others, Yang Xiao and Fan Yao to assist.
After the two phases were decided, they saw that there was nothing else to do, and even though Yang Ding Tiandang said goodbye to everyone, he hurriedly returned to Guangming Ding. Soon after that, Zhu Yuanzhang really recovered the south, advanced into the Central Plains, and began the Northern Expedition. At this time, Yang Dingtian received a notice from Zhu Yuanzhang, who was personally in command, and saw that he had leisure, so he went to Bianliang to meet him.
Traveling all the way, he came to the back of the former capital of the Great Song Dynasty; looking at the post-war scene that was bleak and withering everywhere; he didn't want to see more, Yang Dingtian immediately went to Zhu Yuanzhang's handsome tent. Although the place where this military tent was set up was the imperial palace of the Northern Song Dynasty, it had changed hands several times, and the imperial palace, which had endured hundreds of years of war, not only did not have the slightest royal unattainable momentum, but was also damaged and dilapidated!
After a while, after browsing around, Zhu Yuanzhang immediately introduced Yangdingtian into the Chengtian Hall and took a seat. After the greeting stopped, Zhu Yuanzhang gave a general account of the previous battle situation. After listening to the narration, he asked about his future plans, and it was not too early to see the time, so Zhu Yuanzhang immediately ordered someone to set up a banquet to personally entertain Yang Dingtian. During the banquet, when he heard that Zhu Yuanzhang had now occupied Shaanxi, Shanxi, Guanzhong, Gansu, and Tongguan, and that he would soon be in charge of the Jin army and restore the Han people, Yang Dingtian could not help but be very interested.
As he spoke, he inadvertently saw a large palace in the distance, so he immediately inquired. This place is called Tianyi Palace, which was originally built by Song Taizu for his mother, Empress Dowager Du. It is not only the living place of the lord of the harem of several generations in the Northern Song Dynasty, but it is also said that Zhao Weiming, the patriarch of Liugong Island, was also born here...... and a person immediately got up and introduced. 'Ahh Seeing this, Zhu Yuanzhang and everyone led Yang Dingtian to watch closer. "This place is indeed worthy of being the residence of the lord of the harem of the Northern Song Dynasty!" After entering, he looked at the vaguely recognizable luxurious decoration in the house;
