Chapter 222, Zhu Yuanzhang’s reliance, gambling on the future with his life
After the generals were ordered to leave, Zhu Yuanzhang put on his armor and left the general's residence, then mounted his horse and went straight to the military camp.
Although he doesn't know what Yuan Shi is going to do now, he wants to fight this battle!
Want to fight very much!
The Mingjiao has occupied Bozhou for a long time, and it has completely gotten rid of the Yuan Dynasty.
At this time, he needs soldiers and food in his hands.
When Haining came to Bozhou, the soldiers were not at peace. Although the King of Ruyang said that he used troops like a god, he was not afraid at all.
He, Zhu Yuanzhang, has been fighting out step by step until now.
Originally, he was still a little worried about the arrival of Qi Mu and others, but now all problems are gone.
This King of Ruyang is very good, very good!
…
Someone in Bozhou noticed the situation in the Marshal's Mansion and knew something big was going on.
Whether it is Zhu Yuanzhang or other generals, there must be something wrong in being in such a hurry now.
There is an inn not far from the Marshal's Mansion.
There was a person by the window on the second floor who was always paying attention to the situation in the Marshal's Mansion.
When the man saw Zhu Yuanzhang wearing armor and riding a war horse, his eyes focused.
After thinking for a while, he quickly walked out of the inn.
…
In a village not far from Bozhou.
Qi Mu, Liu Bai, and Zhang Cang gathered together, eating meat and drinking wine.
Zhang Cang looked at Qi Mu and said, "Old Qi, what's going on with Mingjiao?"
"It's not right to just say that we can't defeat us now."
"The higher-ups of Mingjiao have bad tempers."
Qi Mu took a sip of wine, with his signature naive smile on his face: "Whatever."
"Have they ever beaten us?"
"It's best to stay out of the way, otherwise we'll beat them to death."
Liu Bai glanced at Qi Mu strangely. He could tell that the top management of Mingjiao was abnormal this time, and it was impossible for Lao Qi not to know.
Lao Qi's behavior this time... was not right.
"What are you going to do?"
"Talk about it."
Just as Qi Mu was about to speak, flying pigeons appeared in the sky to send messages.
The homing pigeon flew in front of several people's eyes.
"A letter came from Bozhou." Qi Mu smiled: "Zhu Yuanzhang should know that we are coming."
"That guy Chen Youliang must have told Zhu Yuanzhang."
Zhang Cang, Liu Bai frowned slightly: "Chen Youliang will say?"
"In other words... Chen Youliang guessed it."
Qi Mu smiled: "Our current status."
"When we return to the Central Plains in person, it is nothing more than Mingjiao and Wudang."
"Wudang... we just need to send a message if we have something to do. If Wudang can agree, we can agree. If Wudang can't agree, there's nothing we can do about it."
"But Mingjiao is different. If Mingjiao doesn't agree, we can force it."
"Our purpose is not difficult to guess."
Zhang Cang, Liu Bai's eyes darkened slightly.
Although they had a token from the Mingjiao leader Zhang Wuji when they came back this time, Zhang Wuji was not there after all.
And the top management of Mingjiao is not here either.
As the saying goes, you will not be able to accept your fate in the future.
Zhu Yuanzhang is now in great power, and Tang Yang, the leader of the flood flag, has been completely ignored.
As for the other Five Elements Flags, they don’t have much real power.
The people in power now are Zhu Yuanzhang's cronies, or people promoted by Zhu Yuanzhang.
"If Zhu Yuanzhang doesn't leave Bozhou, we can't take action." Liu Bai expressed his concerns.
"We want too many things this time, and Zhu Yuanzhang definitely doesn't want to give them."
"There are many generals in the Central Plains Uprising now, Zhu Yuanzhang and Chen Youliang are the two biggest ones."
"Once Zhu Yuanzhang meets our conditions, Zhu Yuanzhang will inevitably decline for a period of time."
"In that case...Zhu Yuanzhang will miss a lot of opportunities."
"He won't give it a try!" A sneer appeared on Lao Qi's lips.
"Give him face."
"I dare to kill the top leaders of the Mingjiao, but he is nothing."
"The Mingjiao chaos has nothing to do with me."
Zhang Cang was silent for a moment: "Zhu Yuanzhang is dead, and the people below may rebel."
Qi Mu glanced at Zhang Cang strangely: "Rebellion? What are they rebelling against?"
"A bunch of frogs in a well, they think they are a bit of an army?"
"What are they fighting against?"
"Avenge Zhu Yuanzhang? Looking for me?"
Liu Bai and Zhang Cang didn't say anything. The result could be huge.
Although they are not afraid, if such a situation occurs, problems will arise in the Central Plains.
"I'm waiting for them in Mongolia, do they dare to come?" Qi Mu saw Liu Bai and Zhang Cang's concerns and smiled disdainfully.
"As long as they dare to march into Mongolia, hehe..."
"I'm sure that before they reach Mongolia, the people in the Central Plains uprising will directly eat them and take advantage of them."
"In today's Central Plains... soldiers are the capital to compete in the world. Who would give up such a good thing?"
"Even if they negotiate good terms with other rebels in the Central Plains, they will come to Mongolia."
"They came to Mongolia to try."
"I can't kill them."
"They come step by step and I play with them."
"If you use tricks and don't care about the Central Plains...hehe!"
"I just slaughtered them all."
"The most we can do is stay in Mongolia for a while."
"And then take some notoriety."
"Reputation...Liu Bai, do you care? Zhang Cang, do you care? Or does someone else care?"
"I don't want any dogs."
Liu Bai and Zhang Cang knew what Qi Mu meant, but once they did that, things would become big.
At least... the Central Plains will be pacified many years later.
They actually don't care about this, but they are worried that Young Master Song Qingshu does.
The young master has been busy with matters in the Central Plains.
"Master, it's hard to explain to Young Master Zhang Wuji."
"Now that the Mingjiao army is strong and capable of fighting, this situation is what countless people expect to see."
"This is also the reason why Zhu Yuanzhang gained power."
"If you really make trouble like this, something will really go wrong."
"Zhu Yuanzhang was indeed a rare handsome man. His death... is a pity."
Hearing this, Lao Qi did not respond, but looked at Zhang Cang and Liu Bai with a smile.
"so what……"
"What do you think Mingjiao wants to do?"
"The higher-ups of the Mingjiao knew that we were looking for Zhu Yuanzhang, but they refused to come directly and admitted that they were defeated by us."
"They don't protect Zhu Yuanzhang at all. They don't know that Zhu Yuanzhang is a rare talent."
Liu Bai and Zhang Cang were suddenly shocked, and all their previous doubts were immediately solved.
"The Ming Cult wants us to take over!"
"Damn! These old guys are really good at calculating."
"I also said that they didn't want to have a conflict with us, but now it seems that it's all my own fault."
"Grandma's... these old yinbi."
"shameless."
"I bother……"
At this moment...a child from a distance ran over quickly, holding a tambourine in his hand and making a banging sound.
"Uncle, uncle, I have your letter." The child came over with a smile as he ran.
Liu Bai walked over with a smile, took out some honey and gave it to the child, while touching the child's head.
"Let's play."
The child took the honey and sweetened it, with a look of joy on his face: "Thank you, uncle."
"Thank you uncle."
Then, he jumped away.
Qi Mu and the other three looked at the leaving children with deep feelings in their hearts.
The uprising in Bozhou was successful, and the lives of the people here got better.
Live and work in peace and contentment... This is the hope of countless people.
Many old people in this village are former members of the Sky Eagle Sect or are family members.
"Zhu Yuanzhang moved." Liu Bai showed a hint of surprise in his eyes after reading the letter.
"This guy knows we are coming, how dare he leave the Marshal's Mansion?"
"Looking for death?"
Qi Mu and Zhang Cang looked at the contents of the letter, with some doubts in their eyes.
If Zhu Yuanzhang was prepared at the Marshal's Mansion, they would be in some trouble.
But outside of Bozhou... it would be too easy.
"Something must have happened." Qi Mu frowned slightly.
"But at this point in time, is there anything worth risking for Zhu Yuanzhang?"
"This guy can't be that stupid."
"I can guess that the higher-ups of Mingjiao want me to replace Zhu Yuanzhang. It's impossible for Zhu Yuanzhang not to guess."
"Now Zhu Yuanzhang should be thinking about how to talk to me or save his life instead of leaving Bozhou."
Liu Bai continued: "Unless something happens, Zhu Yuanzhang has to do it."
"The benefits are so great that he has to give it a try!"
Ming...
Ming...
Just when everyone was confused, a black hawk appeared in the sky and kept circling in the sky, as if looking for something.
Qi Mu focused his eyes, jumped up and stood directly on the treetops.
In the air, Black Eagle, who was about to leave, saw Qi Mu and swooped down.
"Lao Liu, come and get some meat." Qi Mu shouted to the bottom.
Liu Bai also knew the Black Eagle's love, so he directly found the best piece and threw it up.
call out……
The black hawk passed by in a flash and directly took the meat in its mouth. At the same time, it wandered around and stopped on Qi Mu's arm.
Qi Mu took down the letter, pointed to the meat on the table below, and spoke with a smile.
"Eat less, be careful not to get beaten."
Black Eagle glanced at Qi Mu humanely, swooped down, picked up the largest piece of meat, and quickly disappeared into the horizon.
Qi Mu sat back, opened the letter, and rubbed his temples while reading.
There was some embarrassment on his face.
"There is a letter from the old leader, White-browed Eagle King, right?" Liu Bai and Zhang Cang laughed.
Although Lao Qi didn't say anything, they had already guessed a lot.
With their current strength and background, there are only a few people who can make Lao Qi so embarrassed.
Young Master Song Qingshu indulges most of them and will never interfere as long as there are no big problems.
Let them make trouble.
One of them is Wudang Yu Erxia, their mentor.
Yu Erxia rarely contacted them. After all, Yu Erxia didn't know many things, and even if something happened, Wudang could handle it.
The last one is the old leader, White-browed Eagle King, and King Yin Ye.
"Yes." Qi Mu took a sip of wine and handed the letter to Zhang Cang and Liu Bai.
"There is movement in the Yuan Dynasty. King Ruyang is in Haining personally supervising the army to march against Bozhou."
"Many military camps in Yuanshi are moving."
Zhang Cang and Liu Bai did not respond, but looked at the letter.
They didn't pay much attention to King Ruyang's dispatch.
This should be the reason why Zhu Yuanzhang left Bozhou.
King Ruyang is the Dinghai Shenzhen in the Yuan Dynasty.
King Ruyang went out in person, and Zhu Yuanzhang had to come out, otherwise he would not be able to explain to the people below.
The two of them were more concerned about the content behind the White-browed Eagle King's letter.
Although the White-browed Eagle King didn't say anything, the meaning in his words was obvious.
The Central Plains is too bitter.
Even if the battle between Zhongyuan and Yuanshi ended one day early, it would be Zhongyuan's luck.
At the same time, he also expressed his own thoughts. No matter what they did, the White-browed Eagle King would support them. If there was any trouble, send a message directly and he would immediately come to the Central Plains.
No matter the reason!
The White-browed Eagle King obviously guessed that their visit to Zhu Yuanzhang this time was not an ordinary matter.
Moreover, there is the shadow of Song Qingshu behind him.
As their old leader, White-browed Eagle King knows everyone's temper very well.
These people don't care about reputation at all, and they have no concept of family, country, and world, as long as they live.
In addition, the young master Song Qingshu is now asking them to do things, so they must only pursue their goals and not care about anything else.
Zhu Yuanzhang is now arrogant to them... and is seeking death!
"Do you think the White-browed Eagle King will send a message to Zhu Yuanzhang?" Liu Bai said in a deep voice.
Now the old leader, White-browed Eagle King, has spoken.
If they really killed Zhu Yuanzhang, or killed all the Mingjiao generals who could fight.
After that... they really don't know how to face the White-browed Eagle King.
"No." Zhang Cang shook his head slightly: "This matter... the White-browed Eagle King cannot tell Zhu Yuanzhang."
"If Zhu Yuanzhang listens to the advice, why should we kill him?"
"Zhu Yuanzhang is very proud now."
"Ten thousand steps back. Although the old leader, White-browed Eagle King, cares about the world, he will not trick us for an outsider, Zhu Yuanzhang."
Qi Mu and Liu Bai nodded.
No matter whether the White-browed Eagle King sent a message to Zhu Yuanzhang or not.
But one thing they were sure of was that the White-browed Eagle King would not harm them.
"The old leader, White-browed Eagle King, wants me to figure out how to do it." Qi Mu sighed.
"If I really kill Zhu Yuanzhang, he wants me to take over."
"It's best not to kill..."
"This should be what the higher-ups of the Mingjiao meant, it's just the old leader speaking."
"Although the old leader says he cares about the world, he also thinks about us."
"The old leader knows our character very well."
"This letter is more of an exhortation for us to talk if we can and endure it if we can."
"Zhu Yuanzhang is dead. The peace of the Central Plains will have to be postponed. Moreover, we will also have troubles in the future. We can just be patient and get over it. There is no need to make too big a fuss."
"The top management of Mingjiao has a good idea. They want me to replace Zhu Yuanzhang."
"But they don't know the importance of the layout behind the Young Master. That is the foundation for stabilizing the Central Plains."
"At the same time, they don't know that I can't participate in the battle between Zhongyuan and Yuanshi."
"Even if I kill Zhu Yuanzhang, I can't take over the Central Plains."
"When I take over the Central Plains, the Central Plains martial arts community will face fifteen people practicing the [Long Snake Sutra] in the Yuan Dynasty. At least half of them will die."
"That way...the Central Plains martial arts world will be over."
"Now that the top management of Mingjiao is making such a fuss, not only the top management of Mingjiao want Zhu Yuanzhang to die, but the Yuan Dynasty also wants Zhu Yuanzhang to die."
"The Yuan Dynasty knows very well that I cannot take on the Central Plains army."
"Zhu Yuanzhang's death will be very beneficial to the Yuan Dynasty."
"If my guess is correct, King Ruyang will come here in person to force Zhu Yuanzhang out of Bozhou."
"The reputation of King Ruyang is too great, Zhu Yuanzhang has no choice at all."
"The Yuan Dynasty is giving us a chance to kill Zhu Yuanzhang."
"We have conflicts with Zhu Yuanzhang within Bozhou. It may not be easy to take action, but we can leave Bozhou."
"When the two armies are fighting, and the top martial arts masters are now going to Emei to attend Zhou Zhiruo's leadership ceremony, at this time, we want to kill Zhu Yuanzhang just like killing a chicken."
Zhang Cang, Liu Bai's face felt strange.
This Zhu Yuanzhang is so unpopular that the whole world wants to kill him.
"What should we do?" Zhang Cang was a little confused at this time.
Liu Bai felt helpless for a while, this was too messy.
If they kill Zhu Yuanzhang at this time, the Bozhou army will be leaderless. Maybe Bozhou will be captured by the Yuan Dynasty.
Even if they don't break through, Mingjiao will still suffer a big loss.
Don't kill Zhu Yuanzhang. According to Zhu Yuanzhang's performance in recent days, this guy is really arrogant.
It’s definitely not easy to talk about.
What's more, now that the two armies are fighting, as long as they kill Zhu Yuanzhang, the Mingjiao will be defeated.
They can't take over the Central Plains.
As a result, they could only watch the Mingjiao army die.
Not only that, Mingjiao generals who can fight are expected to die a lot.
Yuanshi will not let go of this opportunity.
Even if the surrounding uprising armies help, the Mingjiao will suffer heavy losses this time.
Zhu Yuanzhang must be aware of his own importance. Perhaps this is Zhu Yuanzhang's confidence.
Zhu Yuanzhang knew very well that even if they had the ability to take over the army, it would be absolutely impossible when the two armies were fighting.
"Zhu Yuanzhang's grandson, are you betting that we won't dare to kill him?" Liu Bai touched his chin and showed a meaningful smile.
He found that Zhu Yuanzhang was much more thief than what Lao Qi said.
"That's why he was so anxious to join the war."
"He wants to take a gamble and defeat King Ruyang!"
"King Ruyang... This is a high mountain that weighs on the hearts of countless Central Plains people."
"As long as Zhu Yuanzhang wins this game, his reputation and prestige will reach its peak."
"At that time...no one in the Central Plains knew about Zhu Yuanzhang."
"If that's the case, it seems we can only do it secretly. Even if we kill Zhu Yuanzhang secretly, the morale of the Central Plains will be greatly reduced."
"This is a great loss to the Central Plains."
"Morale is too important. The Central Plains has just started to improve and cannot withstand such troubles."
"As for being upright, that may not work anymore. If King Ruyang is defeated, the people of the Central Plains will regard Zhu Yuanzhang as their savior."
"We people don't care, but Wudang, Young Master Song Qingshu will be implicated by us."
"We really can't mess around."
"Zhu Yuanzhang is gambling on the future with his life."
"interesting."
"The courage is really good."
