Such fierce men have a bizarre origin. Before Ni Wenjun gave birth to him, his mother dreamed of a white tiger in her arms. Ni Wenjun was so physically strong and invincible that he was known as a barbarian!
At this time, judging from his record since he started the army, he can be given a more resounding title: Strong Man!
The main opponent Ni Wenjun encountered was Kuanche Puhua, the Weishun King of the Yuan Dynasty.
The two of them were old enemies. They had fought against each other when the Red Scarf Army first started fighting. At that time, Ni Wenjun won a great victory.
Four years later, the old rivals clashed again. Kuan Chepuhua assembled more than 40 large ships and let his three sons lead the troops. In order to show his determination to burn the boat, he put all his family members and concubines on the ship to fight Ni Wenjun.
life and death.
In the past, if Kuan Che Pu Hua hesitated, he would be defeated. This time, he changed his habit and attacked decisively. However, his decisiveness was still in vain!
Ni Wenjun ambushed Kuan Chepuhua's fleet in the shoal, burned Kuanche Puhua's ship, killed one son, captured two sons, and captured all other family members.
What's funny is that Kuan Chepuhua was ready to risk his life, but when he saw the army was defeated, he abandoned his family and fled to Shaanxi.
I have remarried my daughter-in-law and am working hard to have more children.
It's a bit funny to talk about the universalization of justice, but King Weishun has been guarding Wuchang for thirty years. He has a deep foundation and is arrogant. He is an out-and-out local snake... but was eliminated by Ni Wenjun in one fell swoop. Then he conquered Hanyang, Xiangyang and other places.
, single-handedly created the resurgence of Tianwan.
When it comes to fighting skills, Ni Wenjun is definitely top-notch.
But just like Lu Wenhou, he is too politically idiotic.
Ni Wenjun wanted to climb up, but there were Emperor Tianwan Xu Shouhui and the old men of the Peng Party above. They were all obstacles that Ni Wenjun could not avoid.
Then this guy came up with a bad idea. He planned to surrender to the Yuan Ting, get Zhao'an, and then use the Yuan Ting's banner to eliminate Xu Shouhui and get rid of Zhao Pusheng and others.
But Ni Wenjun was careless and leaked it.
Faced with this situation, Xu Shouhui felt extremely embarrassed. He just wanted to say, Wenjun, you are becoming more and more like Xiao Fengxian.
Although Xu Shouhui was the mascot introduced by Monk Peng, after Monk Peng's death, Xu Shouhui also pulled up some of his own forces. After all, in this era, being able to survive is a manifestation of ability. Xu Shouhui secretly contacted important ministers, and directly
Win over Chen Youliang and prepare for a great drama to eradicate powerful officials.
It's just that Xu Shouhui didn't expect that compared to Ni Wenjun, who was rough in work, Chen Youliang was more qualified to be a junior Wen Hou.
He held the heads of the Kuanche Puhua family members and knelt in front of Ni Wenjun, with tears streaming down his face.
"General, I, Tianwan, have been trying to overwhelm Yuan Dynasty since the founding of the country. Now that the Yuan Dynasty has been defeated like a mountain, Liu Futong has raised his troops for the Northern Expedition, and even Zhu Yuanzhang has called for expulsion of the barbarians. I, Tianwan, were the first to revolt and founded the country.
He was the first to proclaim himself emperor. He was the leader of the rebel army. How could he be so hesitant and collude with Yuan Tatar? Wouldn’t it chill the hearts of the soldiers and be looked down upon by everyone in the world?"
"The last general is incompetent and is good at making decisions. He killed Kuanche Puhua's family to calm people's hearts and tell all the soldiers that I, the whole world, are incompatible with Yuan Tatar. We will die or die!" Chen Youliang raised his head and cried.
: "The general is devoted to the general. The matter is urgent, so he will be killed first and then reported. If the general feels that the general is at fault, the general is willing to kill him! He only wants peace and order in the country. We must not ruin the good situation!"
After Chen Youliang finished speaking, he lay on the ground with his butt raised high, as if he was obeying everyone. His heart was beating wildly. Ni Wenjun was known as a barbarian, cruel and violent, and he could indeed kill someone in a rage.
However, Chen Youliang wanted to take a gamble and bet that Ni Wenjun would not dare to kill him.
Time passed by minute by second, Ni Wenjun was condescending and said nothing. Sweat flowed down Chen Youliang's cheek, and gradually, it turned into two puddles.
Chen Youliang's body was trembling slightly, and he could hardly hold on.
At this moment, Ni Wenjun suddenly laughed and stood up.
"Old Chen! Who did you listen to who said that we must surrender to the Tatars? A war is never tired of deceit, don't you understand?"
Chen Youliang was shocked and turned pale. He kowtowed and said, "The general is confused and really doesn't understand. Please give me some advice, general!"
Ni Wenjun laughed and said: "Now that Liu Futong is on his Northern Expedition, I am pretending to be in contact with Yuan Ting to appease Yuan Ting and let them focus on fighting Liu Futong. We are going to go eastward along the Yangtze River and go straight to Yingtian to kill Zhu Yuanzhang. Do you understand?"
?”
"I understand! I understand! The great general has such a clever plan that I will be ashamed of myself!" Chen Youliang almost fell to the ground, his heart beating wildly.
Ni Wenjun looked at him, then at Zhang Dingbian who came with him, and said with a smile: "You don't even believe me, and you even killed Kuan Chepuhua's family... But it was just a matter of killing, and I didn't bother to talk to him.
Yuan Ting is resorting to tricks. Send an order and tell the whole army that we and the Yuan Tartars are at odds with each other!"
Ni Wenjun took a deep breath and said, "Furthermore, Chen Youliang committed suicide without permission. I will remove you from your official position in Jiangxi and temporarily station you in Huangzhou. That's it!"
Chen Youliang immediately kowtowed, and then respectfully exited the General's Mansion. Zhang Dingbian followed behind him. He was still a little unconvinced and wanted to apologize for Chen Youliang's injustice.
Ni Wenjun's words were obviously lies. Why did he take away Chen Youliang's military power in Jiangxi?
"Marshal! Don't be discouraged. I will find a way and tell the Prime Minister..."
Before Zhang Dingbian could finish speaking, Chen Youliang stretched out his hand to stop him, and a proud smile appeared on his originally frightened face.
"What Ni Manzi! That's quite ordinary!"
Chen Youliang wiped away the dejection just now... Ni Wenjun didn't dare to kill him, so he had already lost. All the nonsense he said later was just to save face for himself.
All said and done, Ni Wenjun lost this time.
He wanted to disobey his superiors, but in the end he was slapped in the face by his subordinates. He didn't dare to do anything to his subordinates... From Hongdu to Huangzhou, it seemed that Tianwan Capital was still standing closer.
It seems that our Tianwan tradition is to do the following!
With this time, there will be a next time.
And next time we will be better prepared and our attitude will be stronger!
Ni Wenjun, just wait for me.
…
The internal turbulence in Tianwan seemed to be uneventful, except that Chen Youliang was guarding Huangzhou and Ni Wenjun personally led the army down the river and entered Jiangxi, preparing for a decisive battle with Zhu Yuanzhang.
But just as Chen Youliang thought, the seeds for lowering the upper limit have been planted in Tianwan.
Originally, Ni Wenjun was not a strong emperor, but now the generals are surging undercurrents, and the situation is turbulent. The temporary calm is just to accumulate energy for the next explosion.
Just wait until the time is right, explode all of a sudden, fly into pieces, and the sky will collapse!
Although Tianquan's overall condition was good, the situation on the battlefield in Jiangxi was much worse.
During the time when Chen Youliang left, it can be said that the entire war situation took a turn for the worse.
Hongdu is located on the east bank of the Ganjiang River and is built near the water. Because it guards the lanes of the Ganjiang River, commerce is prosperous and passenger ships are constantly coming and going.
Although Hongdu City is not big, it has eight city gates alone, and there is also a water gate.
So many city gates mean that it is difficult to defend and there are loopholes everywhere.
Therefore, when Hu Tingrui saw that the Zhu Jiajun did not attack the city immediately, he focused all his energy on strengthening the city wall, and even built a urn city inside Fuzhou Gate to resist the Zhu Jiajun.
"It is truly a fortified city!"
After Zhu Yuanzhang took Zhang Ximeng to see it, he couldn't help but admire it. He suddenly smiled and said: "Mr. Zhang, if we take Hongdu, how should we defend the city?"
Zhang Ximeng was slightly startled and said, "Please give me some advice, my lord."
"We will first demolish the city wall in the west near the Gan River."
"Why?" Zhang Ximeng asked curiously.
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said, "When we were in Jinling, we watched the rise and fall of the river and the rolling torrents. If there is enough rain and the river surges, and we use large ships to carry soldiers and horses, we can instantly board the city. What will we have to defend the city?"
Zhang Ximeng couldn't help but nodded. Lao Zhu's idea was indeed brilliant, but even if he captured Hongdu, he probably wouldn't be able to defend the city by himself. He couldn't help but look at Zhu Wenzheng and Li Wenzhong who were following Lao Zhu, and found that these two people were listening to
They were all very careful, Zhang Ximeng couldn't help but nodded.
"Your Majesty, it's just that we don't need to cross the Gan River to attack the city. It's relatively easy."
Zhu Yuan nodded, "Yes! In fact, this situation reminds us of Haozhou back then. At that time, Haozhou was backed by the Huaihe River. We were responsible for garrisoning the west gate. We were also facing the main force of the Yuan Dynasty. Mr. Jia was not fooling us.
Less tricks!"
Thinking of the previous battle, Zhu Yuanzhang became more and more interested, and said to Zhang Ximeng: "Sir, remember, it was the first time we saw Lu Gongcha at that time. Fortunately, you recognized it, otherwise Haozhou would be in danger!"
Zhang Ximeng couldn't help laughing and said: "My lord, you are too polite. In fact, with my lord's bravery, it is not difficult to protect Haozhou. I am just the icing on the cake. At first, I thought those backfires were more terrifying! If it hadn't been for Yuan Ting's urging.
, arrange it calmly, and use the lethality of the returning artillery. Sooner or later, we will be able to blast away Haozhou!"
Zhu Yuanzhang believed this, because although there were some return artillery pieces in Haozhou at that time, they were all left behind by the Yuan army. They did not know how to make them. If they tried hard to consume them, they would definitely fail.
It's a pity that the Yuan Dynasty didn't trust the Han officials and lacked food and grass, so it couldn't support it. By the time of the Battle of Gaoyou, even the Mongols didn't believe it...
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled slightly, "Yes, we couldn't say what happened at the beginning, but today, we seem to be able to verify it!"
Zhang Ximeng was slightly surprised, but also had a trace of hope... It turned out that just when the Zhu Jiajun was calmly building the city and blockading Hongdu, a batch of newly manufactured return artillery was delivered. Not only were there artillery, but there were more
Gunpowder, flower shells.
With the current grain and grass reserves, material supplies, and soldier training of the Zhu Jiajun, it is indeed possible to implement the strategy that Jia Lu did not implement at the beginning without any constraints or surprises.
"I really didn't expect that we would become our former rivals!" Lao Zhu looked up to the sky and sighed, full of relief and relief.
Zhang Ximeng whispered: "The means may be reasonable, but our original intention remains unchanged, and our desire to protect the people remains unchanged... Therefore, we must win!"
Zhu Yuanzhang's pupils shrank, he clenched his fists for a while and said: "Yes, we will win!"
