Chapter 167: The Great Zhou Dynasty

With the Tushen cannon, the 100,000 army fought with the regular army of the Yuan Dynasty, ending in victory, and then also accelerated the speed of crossing the river, and after transporting everyone across the Yellow River that night, the 100,000 army did not divide the troops, but went straight to the nearest city, but did not give the Yuan Dynasty a chance to buffer at all!

When 100,000 people arrived at Hengshui City, which was closest to the Yellow River, under the Tushen cannon carried by the 100,000 army, the tens of thousands of Han soldiers left by the King of Ruyang did not play a blocking role at all.

At this time, the 100,000 army is far away from the capital of Beijing, and there is only the last city, Baoding!

......

"Your Majesty, the anti-thief artillery is really fierce, and the cavalry under the ministers can't get close to the anti-thief at all, please punish the emperor!"

The king of Ruyang has returned to Dadu with the rest of the soldiers, and has visited the emperor, and just after the report, the next moment the emperor is angry and speaks!

"Bastard, can't my Dayuan Iron Cavalry even exterminate a thief?"

Although the Emperor Dayuan on the high platform was angry, he also knew that King Ruyang was one of the few remaining good generals in the imperial court, and he would have to rely on him when the thieves came in the future, so he didn't punish the crime now, but he left it for later, and then the new emperor set his eyes on the prime minister and asked hopefully!

"Tokhta, how is the artillery built?"

"Your Majesty, the artillery body can be replaced by a return cannon, but the power of gunpowder is not as good as that of stone, and it still needs to be studied. ”

"However, there is a return to defend the city, and those thieves don't want to take the city. ”

After Totoh finished the first sentence, he carefully looked up at the emperor whose face became more ugly, and hurriedly added another sentence, the emperor's face was a little better, but at this moment, an old eunuch ran in in a panic and knelt down, and as soon as he spoke, the emperor's face sank completely!

"Your Majesty, the city of Hengshui is broken, and the thief army has marched to Baoding!"

After the old eunuch finished speaking, the court suddenly became silent, this is not because the officials of the court are disciplined, but the news completely stunned them, the southern thieves have been in their impression, they have been operating in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, it has been less than seven days since they got the news, how can they all hit the door?

"It's... How is this possible?"

It took a long time for the emperor to react, staring at the old eunuch with his eyes, and asked in disbelief!

'Bang!'

"Your Majesty, the minions don't dare to deceive!"

Under the emperor's gaze, the old eunuch knocked his head with a bang, and then shouted loudly with a raised voice, which completely eliminated the possibility of the old eunuch's slip of the tongue!

"Don't worry about the emperor, the capital city is several times thicker than the Hengshui city, even the return cannon is difficult to break, as long as the city gate is strengthened, and then rely on the return cannon to defend the city, you may not be afraid of those thieves, as long as you hold it for a few days, and when the food and grass of those thieves run out, we will send troops to chase and kill, and we will be able to eliminate the thieves in one fell swoop and recover the lost territory!"

When the panic was about to be further infected, the prime minister of Tokhoff hurriedly spoke, in terms of meaning, it was somewhat similar to the proposal of the civil officials in the south, they were all based on defense, and after safety, they would talk about attack, but at this time, it was not like when Xianning held a meeting, and some people retorted, and now the Yuan Dynasty can be said to have been beaten to the doorstep, and the two dispatches ended in failure!

At this time, Tokhtar said this, which was to give a group of panicked and desperate people in the temple a life-saving straw, and they grabbed it to the death, how can there be any reason to refute it!

"Okay, just do what Totok said, do your best to defend the capital and strengthen the city gate!"

It was not only the ministers who grabbed the straw, but also the emperor, who opened his mouth to issue the order after Tokhtar finished speaking, and the Mongolian nobles in Baoding were abandoned without knowing it!

A day later, Baoding, who was waiting for the rescue of Dadu, fell under the offensive of the Tushen Cannon!

On the second day, the army approached Dadu, under the attack of tens of thousands of earth cannons, what strengthened the city gate, what was several times thicker than Hengshui, all became false, gunpowder broke the city gate, countless soldiers guarding the city wall were all killed, the emperor's ministers in the palace, before they could react from the loud noise outside, the southern army rushed directly into the palace, and there was no chance to escape, and the emperor's ministers were caught!

This battle, which was known as the unification of the Great Zhou Dynasty in later generations, ended unexpectedly quickly, less than a month, only ten days, in the time when all the forces, including the Yuan Dynasty, could not react, it was all over, making many forces hidden in the Yuan Dynasty and the south couldn't help but regret it, and a small part was finally incorporated into the south, and they were all mixed up after the establishment of the dynasty in the south!

But more people, the idea is still left in the mode of fighting for hegemony in the world, in the south to recover the remaining territory that has not yet been controlled, they have occupied the city to dominate, want to turn the rhythm of southern unification into a mode of princes fighting for hegemony, but the southern army with the earth god cannon in the face of a group of peasant soldiers with sticks and bamboo, is crushed without accident, a month later, the whole country is unified, a new dynasty is established, under the order of Ren Yingying, named Da Zhou!

And the location of the capital is not Beijing, after the civil officials discussed this for a long time, but there was no result, Ren Yingying was troublesome, and directly set the capital in Xianning, although the civil officials wanted to oppose it, but with Ren Yingying's current prestige, to decide one thing, no one can really resist!

In the end, Xianning was the capital, the country was called the Great Zhou, and a lot of ceremonies were carried out to call the emperor, and Ren Yingying became the emperor under the support of the ministers, and was called the Empress of the Great Zhou!

However, after becoming the emperor, Ren Yingying didn't notice anything, but countless post-war problems were all gathered in Xianning, Ren Yingying, who was dressed in a phoenix crown and dressed in a phoenix crown, looked at the hundreds of folds presented by Gao Li, and couldn't help but think of abdicating, after all, the Yuan Dynasty was destroyed, and her wish was fulfilled, and there was no need to stay here anymore to be a good emperor!

However, Ren Yingying's final idea was still not reached, Ren Yingying asked Gao Li to take over as emperor, no one else was convinced, and it was not okay to identify others, after all, most of the people in the court were Ren Yingying's students, not to mention Ren Yingying's admiration, that is, Ren Yingying, the founding emperor, had only been in office for a few days, and their subordinates would not be too ugly to take over!

In the end, the abdication plan was unsuccessful, but a method of approval was also discussed, that is, a cabinet was established like the Tang Dynasty, which was held by the largest people in the court, and Ren Yingying stipulated that each emperor would serve for five years, and after five years, he would leave the throne anyway, and the next emperor would be the one who handled government affairs best from the cabinet!

The rules were set, and the Great Zhou Dynasty began to operate!
