Zhu Yuanzhang's account......

"Marshal, good news-" Chang Yuchun got the victory of the battle ahead, and rushed into the account excitedly for the first time, reporting the battle situation to Zhu Yuanzhang.

Zhu Yuanzhang seems to have been waiting for something, and he has not been engaged in military affairs much today, but has been closing his eyes in the camp to recuperate. It wasn't until Chang Yuchun heard the sound of good news that Zhu Yuanzhang opened his eyes and asked, "Is it good news from Tengzhou?"

"Yes, Marshal-" Chang Yuchun said excitedly, "General Xiao Tian, entrusted by Han Zheng, only led 500 men and horses to seize the whole city of Tengzhou, and killed the defenders of the city, Shanzhu Waru and Chen Xuan, and won a great victory, and his remnants Yang Zhiyuan led the remnants of the defeated army to abandon the city and flee to the desert-"

"Is this true?" Zhu Yuanzhang continued to ask with a look of expectation in surprise, "General Xiao Tian under General Chang's account, with only five hundred men and horses, took down Shanzhu Waru, who was good at defending the city against the enemy, and Tengzhou, which was guarded by Chen Wei?"

"That's right, General Xiao's clever plan to convince the generals and ......soldiers of the army," Chang Yuchun added, "It's just that I heard General Han Zheng's cronies say that General Xiao said that he was ordered in danger, and his military exploits were all divided among Han Zheng's cronies, and General Xiao Tian returned the military power without trying to reward ...... at all."

"This is a hero!" Zhu Yuanzhang stood up excitedly, and said without hesitation, and then said, "General Chang, why hasn't such a good general been reused under your account before?"

"This ......" Chang Yuchun was also a little hesitant, and then said, "General Xiao is extremely low-key. rarely shows military talents, and there are five tiger generals under the last general's account. Therefore, the last general failed to discover the talent of General Xiao, and asked the marshal to forgive him......"

"Be low-key and ......" Zhu Yuanzhang retracted his expression slightly. muttered to himself, and then asked, "The generals in the world are all heroes based on their military exploits, but General Xiao Tian does not." Not only no, but even the merit reward is not half a point, like a noble person who does not touch the fame and fortune of the world...... But in this world, especially in troubled times, there are few such good generals and noble people. Zhu hasn't seen him for many years, but now he has one of them, this is a real hero!"

Chang Yuchun thought for a while, recalled his understanding of Xiao Tian, and then continued to add: "Marshal, I have heard that General Xiao Tian, General Tang Zhan and the Army Division are all friends, and they are all martial arts people. Since it is from the rivers and lakes, its people must be loyal and righteous and virtuous. General Xiao Tian can have such a noble quality, I am afraid it has something to do with it......"

"From the rivers and lakes?" mentioned "rivers and lakes", Zhu Yuanzhang's nerves became sensitive.

"Yes...... Chang Yuchun continued, "I happened to hear about his cronies. Before General Xiao Tian entered the camp, he was a well-known 'Canglong Hero' in the rivers and lakes, and he made a lot of waves in the martial arts......"

"Cang, Dragon, Great, Hero......" Zhu Yuanzhang muttered word by word. With his right hand lightly resting his chin, he paced slowly. Then he said, "Those who can be called 'heroes' in the world." All of them have both civil, military, and moral integrity...... The Tang family's disciple Xiaofeng Daxia is not only Zhu's life-saving benefactor, but also the enlightener of Zhu's hegemony...... Zhu has always been a heroic and righteous man in the rivers and lakes, and the hero of the wind is the beginning of me, and now this 'Canglong hero' may be another person who died in Zhu......"

Hearing the rare emotion in Zhu Yuanzhang's army, Chang Yuchun didn't know what he meant, and stood below without saying a word, waiting for Zhu Yuanzhang to say what he meant.

Zhu Yuanzhang paused, as if he had decided something, and then turned around and asked, "Is General Xiao Tian still in General Han's camp at the moment?"

"It should still be there - after all, the last general divided the army and ordered General Xiao Tian to accompany General Han Zheng to attack the city, and then there was nothing else to ......," Chang Yuchun said calmly.

"Okay-" Zhu Yuanzhang was excited, and then ordered, "Order, order all the generals in the army to take care of the camp, and the commander will personally go to General Han Zheng's camp to meet General Xiao Tian!"

"This ...... Is what the marshal said true?" Chang Yuchun asked in surprise.

"Of course-" Zhu Yuanzhang had already begun to pack his bags, and couldn't wait to say, "General Xiao Tian is a good talent in our army, I don't want to miss such a heroic general because of delay!"

"Okay, the last general will prepare immediately and go with the marshal......" Chang Yuchun Ying said, it seems that he plans to go with him.

Zhu Yuanzhang was halfway through the preparation, as if he remembered something again, turned his head and asked, "By the way, is there any news from General Xu Da's troops?"

"Oh-some ......" Chang Yuchun only then remembered that there was still a military report to be reported, so he continued, "General Xu Da's main force has rushed to Yidu, its momentum is unstoppable, it is only a matter of time to take Yidu, maybe there will be good news today......"

"In the order of division of troops, Yidu strategy, the vanguard army seems to have generals and retinues...... Who is this person?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked casually.

Chang Yuchun truthfully reported: "Marshal Hui, is the first fierce general in the vanguard battalion under the last general, 'flying cavalry general' Zhao Zichuan -- this person is good at martial arts and command, every time he kills the enemy and rushes to the front, it is said that the Northern Expedition has advanced all the way, and his prestige of 'flying cavalry general' has spread all over the north and south ......of the Yellow River."

"So powerful? It seems that it is still the head of the five tigers in the pioneer camp......" Zhu Yuanzhang sighed, and then chuckled and said, "But in the eyes of Ben Shuai, only General Xiao Tian is a real hero, Ben Shuai will go to ...... for a while now"

So after a few simple questions, Zhu Yuanzhang and Chang Yuchun packed up and prepared to go to Han Zheng's military camp......

On the other hand, in the Battle of Yidu, Xu Da's army was indeed overwhelming, and the cavalry led by Zhao Zichuan was unstoppable, and the defenders of Yidu Mengyuan collapsed almost in one day......

"Flying cavalry Zhao Zichuan killed-" In front of the gate of Yidu City, Zhao Zichuan single-handedly jumped up, killing the Mengyuan defenders and retreating one after another, and retreating to the city pass.

"Ah-" "Ah......" The screams continued, and wherever the flying horses went, the Mengyuan soldiers were lying with countless corpses and horses, and the tiger generals shocked several enemies, and the Mengyuan defenders did not dare to stop them.

"General Zhao, we're here to help you-" Behind Zhao Zichuan, Li Xian and Li Gong had already led the cronies of the vanguard battalion to kill, and the main force of Xu Da's troops followed. Face the shattered city of Yidu. It looks like it's right in front of you......

"Hurry up and block it for me!-" The commander of the Yuan army in the rear did not seem to intend to give up, and was still commanding hard. Ordered the troops to defend the city gate with iron buckets.

However, the disparity in strength between the two armies was too great, and this time the attack was successful. Xu Dake sent the main force of elite soldiers, and the battle has come to this point, in fact, everyone knows in their hearts, the final victory or defeat.

"Kill-" "Kill-ah......" is just an order, and all the soldiers of Meng Yuan have to obey, still riding horses and waving swords and rushing forward.

But standing in front of them was Zhao Zichuan, Zhao Zichuan's eyes were certain, and the two swords in his hand waved out. "Driving-" Zhao Zichuan shouted at the war horse, and his horse galloped and jumped. It's like the vast sky.

"Flying cavalry Zhao Zichuan killed-" A charging command, as soon as the words fell, Zhao Zichuan and his people had already flown behind Meng Yuanzhong's horseman. I felt that the yellow-green sword light flashed in an instant, and before I could see the sword path moves, the screams didn't have time to shout, and Meng Yuan's people had already pierced their chests with their swords and fell off their horses.

"Zhao, Zhao Zhao...... Zhao Zhao...... Zhao Zichuan -- "The garrison command post of Meng Yuan saw that Zhao Zichuan was majestic in all directions, and he was already frightened when he was defeated by ten thousand horsemen. Zhao Zichuan led the troops to fight the Northern Expedition and was invincible. All the way to the prestige, the people of Mengyuan were terrified...... Now that they have seen it with their own eyes, the soldiers know its power very well, and they will definitely be defeated. Frightened, the army's hearts collapsed, and they all fled for their lives.

"Run, ah......" Sure enough, Zhao Zichuan broke the enemy all the way. The Mengyuan army saw its might with their own eyes, and they all dropped their armor. Flee in a panic......

"Whoosh-" There was a burst of fire in mid-air, and a "shocking thunder" came from Xu Dajun. Heading towards the gate of Yidu.

"Boom-" There was a loud bang, and the earth-shattering thunder and flames splashed everywhere, instantly blasting the city gate open. The soldiers defending the city suffered numerous casualties, and the defense of the city gate collapsed in an instant......

"The generals will follow me to kill in-" Zhao Zichuan held two swords, and the imperial horse shouted an order, still leading the charge to the front.

"Kill-" The soldiers behind him followed Zhao Zichuan closely, and the vanguard troops rushed into Yidu Chengguan like a tide......

Xu Da's main army is in the middle of the formation......

"General, General Zhao Zichuan has led his troops into the city, and the enemy army has been crushed, and they have disarmed and surrendered-" The soldiers in front came back as soon as possible and reported the situation to the main general Xu Da.

Xu Da nodded, affirming Zhao Zichuan at the same time, it seemed that there were important things to mention, so he immediately asked: "When the army invaded the city, did you find that Xuanwei made Puyan not flower?"

Puyan Buhua is the Shandong propaganda envoy set up by the Mengyuan court, although he is a civilian official, he is in charge of the affairs of the whole army in Shandong. Now attacking Yidu at this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang is trying to capture Puyan Buhua, so as to curb other military defense forces in Shandong.

"No, General—" replied Soldier Fifteen.

"I didn't find it, it means that he himself is still in the official mansion......" Xu Da's eyes wrinkled slightly, and then said, "I have heard of this person's virtuous name, and I admire his loyalty and righteousness, but he has sent people to summon him three times, but he ignored all of them...... In this way, you send someone to order General Zhao, if you find Puyan Buhua in the official mansion, you must summon him with courtesy, and you must not make things difficult for him......"

"Yes, my subordinates will do it—" The soldier received the order, and then turned and ran towards the "ruined city......

Zhao Zichuan led his troops to take Yidu, and almost all of the defenders of Yidu surrendered. In this battle, Zhao Zichuan was the first to charge forward, deterring the enemy army, and taking the city was naturally indispensable...... But there was no news of Puyan Buhua, who Xu Da had always wanted to see, and Zhao Zichuan got a military order to send Li Xian, Li Gong and a few people to the official office in the city to recruit An......

The shattered Yidu City, the official land is also in ruins, not only is there a mess everywhere, but even the guards of the Mengyuan soldiers are all around the corpses, and their appearance is miserable......

"Find a few people to help clean up this place...... Zhao Zichuan did not forget to feel pity when he was in the army, and ordered his subordinates to tidy up the "dilapidation" around the official office.

"Yes, General Zhao-" His subordinates received the order and arranged for several people in the army to tidy up the "mess".

Zhao Zichuan led his cronies and walked straight into the official office. In the main hall of the official office, the door is open, and in the main hall, there is still a person sitting upright. This person is dignified and upright, although he is a man of Mengyuan, he does not lose the spirit of a righteous man admired by the Han people.

Zhao Zichuan softly ordered his subordinates to wait outside the door, and he stepped into the hall lightly, looking at the person sitting in front of the hall.

This person also looked at Zhao Zichuan squarely, and there was no fear in his eyes, as if he had expected that there would be today......

"Your Excellency, but is Shandong Xuan's consolation envoy Puyan Buhua?" Zhao Zichuan asked directly to the point.

"Knowingly—" the man replied succinctly. It seems that it is a consolation that makes Puyan not spend money.

"Why don't we run away when our army enters the city?" Zhao Zichuan asked again.

"Thousands of iron hooves are pressing the realm, and the momentum is like a bamboo. Whether you run or not is a matter of success or failure, but it is a matter of life and death-" Puyan said in righteous words.

Zhao Zichuan looked at Puyan Buhua with admiration. continued: "The overall situation has been decided, and I hope that the Lord will choose to do things clearly, and follow me to recruit peace-"

"Hmph......" Pu Yan Buhua smiled softly, and then said, "General Zhao is heroic in the north and south, so he knows the importance of loyalty and righteousness, how can he not know what I choose?"

The answer is obvious, Puyan will not choose to surrender if he does not spend his life vowing.

Li Xian couldn't stand it outside the door. I was also very impetuous after the battle, so I couldn't help but say: "General, why talk nonsense with him, just let me tie him up and take him to General Xu Da!"

Pu Yan Buhua listened, and scolded angrily: "I am a Jinshi of the Yuan Dynasty, the official is the best, and the ministers are their masters, how can they be willing to do two surnames!"

"General Lee. Don't be rude!" Zhao Zichuan immediately stopped Li Xian's words and deeds, then turned around and continued to face Pu Yan Buhua.

Pu Yan Buhua slowly pulled out the knife in front of the case and looked at Zhao Zichuan's equally resolute face. Unswervingly said: "General Zhao, I respect you as a hero, if you can afford it, you can afford it." Just give me a good time!"

Zhao Zichuan's eyes were certain, and he turned his head and prepared to turn around and say, "You are a hero." I respect you! I, Zhao Zichuan, have never killed heroes, so forget it......" Zhao Zichuan unexpectedly turned around, wanting to leave here and let Puyan go without flowers.

But Puyan Buhua would not be reconciled, he slowly raised the knife...... Suddenly, Puyan Buhua swooped in from behind Zhao Zichuan, vowing that even if he died, he would die with dignity and backbone.

"General Zhao be careful!-" Li Gong shouted in front of the door.

Zhao Zichuan turned around and looked back, lowered his head and easily dodged Pu Yan Buhua's knife attack. Immediately, Zhao Zichuan turned around and kicked Puyan Buhua to the ground. Pu Yan didn't spend any martial arts, and after falling to the ground, he was lying down for a long time, although the knife in his hand was still clenched......

Li Xian, Li Gong and others wanted to lead troops to break in, but they were stopped by Zhao Zichuan with a gesture...... Immediately, Zhao Zichuan turned his head to face Puyan Buhua, and asked loudly: "Is it worth it to waste your dignity and backbone at the expense of the declining court of the people of the world?"

Pu Yan Buhua fell to the ground injured and smiled softly: "Hmph, I'd rather die with dignity than live in peace, it's worth ...... Worth...... General Zhao, you are a descendant of the royal family of the Song Dynasty, in order to save the people of the world and expel tyranny, and I Puyan is not a man of the Mengyuan Dynasty, loyal to the court all my life, loyal to the two - both of us are heroes, and no one is wrong, but God is destined that we can only be enemies......"

When Zhao Zichuan heard this, he couldn't help but feel sad in his heart.

Pu Yan Buhua slowly exerted force in his hand, and used his last strength to say: "Since General Zhao is a hero and can't do anything, then don't bother the general......" After speaking, the knife edge was heading towards his neck.

"Don't-" Zhao Zichuan wanted to fly to stop him, but it was too late......

Puyan didn't spend a knife to see blood, and finally killed himself and martyred his country......

Zhao Zichuan stood in front of Puyan Buhua's body for a long time and refused to leave, and Puyan Buhua's words before his death have been lingering in Zhao Zichuan's heart......

"General Zhao, the bodies of several women at the mouth of the well have just been found in the backyard......" In the midst of deep pain, a soldier who was searching in the backyard of the official office ran over and reported to Zhao Zichuan in a sad tone, "According to the soldiers, they are Puyan Buhua's wife and younger siblings...... Later, the bodies of several children were found to have fallen into the bottom of the well, apparently they had thrown their children into the well together and died......"

When Zhao Zichuan heard this, he was even more shocked in his grief - Puyan Buhua was loyal to the minister, and would rather die than give in, and the family staged a tragic scene, which can be described as full of loyalty!

Zhao Zichuan closed his eyes and was silent for a long time, then slowly opened his eyes, and ordered his soldiers in a sad tone: "Puyan Buhua is the hero of the country...... Order, after informing General Xu Da of his grief, he ordered someone to bury Puyan Buhua's family properly, which is an act of loyalty......"

"Yes, general......" may be a sad rendering, and the soldier's tone is much sadder.

Zhao Zichuan took back his weapon, and after a period of silence, he led his subordinates to leave this tragic place......
