However, there is a saying that before the world is in chaos, Shu will be in chaos, and the world has been governed, but Shu has not been governed.
In other words, this land of abundance with its natural moat barrier has never been peaceful and prosperous.
Chengdu, Palace of the Prince of Shu.
One of the most splendid palaces of the Ming Dynasty, it was built based on Nanjing City and covers an area of nearly forty hectares. However, it has now changed its owner. The surname was changed to Zhang instead of Zhu, and the palace has also become a royal palace.
Oh, to be precise, it is Daxi Palace. Although many historical trajectories have changed due to the butterfly effect caused by Chang Yu's time travel, Zhang Xianzhong in Pian'an Mountain has hardly been affected at all, at least not now. On November 16th last year
Japan was proclaimed emperor, the country was named Daxi, and the Yuan Dynasty was changed to Dashun.
Last year, Zhang Xianzhong entered Shu. Zhu Zhishu, the 13th generation king of Shu, gave 30,000 silver to reward the Chongqing garrison and 20,000 to the Chengdu garrison. However, after Chongqing was defeated, this guy was not willing to give out a penny.
He just wanted to escape, but his brother Zhu Zhiyi, the king of Neijiang, and Liu Zhibo, the governor of Sichuan who was in danger at that time, tried to persuade him no matter how hard he tried. They forced him to act rogue: "There is a lot of money and food in the treasury, but there is only one Chengyun Palace. The old man and others demolished it and sold it for payment."
"The Chengyun Hall is the office building in the palace. Liu Zhibo cursed after hearing this. No one can afford this hall, except Li Zicheng!
The words came to this point, but the master wanted money rather than his life and couldn't listen anymore. Then the murderer king rushed into Chengdu Mansion, and Zhu Zhishu committed suicide by throwing himself into a well... The unofficial official history says what happened next.
Well, the murderer king was very capable of killing people, so the people of the Zhu family were the first to be killed.
The Shu Prince's Palace naturally became the Daxi Prince's Palace, just like the Qin Prince's Palace in Xi'an became the Dashun Palace. However, the Qin Prince's Palace at least left some traces and thoughts for future generations. The fate of the Shu Prince's Palace was a bit disappointing.
People were very sad and speechless.
Historically, Zhang Xianzhong burned part of the palace buildings when he fled Chengdu. During the Manchu and Qing Dynasties, it was set up as a tribute courtyard. Although it was severely damaged by wars for hundreds of years, it did not disappear and became the current Sichuan Science and Technology Museum.
Of course, the palace is not only as big as the Science and Technology Museum, but even Tianfu Square is now the boundary of the palace.
Naturally, the palace was extremely wealthy. The silver that Zhang Xianzhong sunk at the river mouth belonged to the palace's treasury, including the "Golden Seal of the Crown Prince of Shu" where the water came out.
However, now all this belongs to Zhang Xianzhong.
Zhang Xianzhong, the notorious bandit leader, the emperor of the Daxi regime, a murderous and bloodthirsty lunatic.
Although he is in a mountain with hundreds of thousands of people, Zhang Xianzhong is by no means indifferent to what is happening outside the window. It can even be said that any disturbance outside cannot escape his ears and eyes. He will sometimes feel pity, sometimes happiness, sometimes anger, and sometimes uneasiness because of various news.
.
When he first entered Sichuan last year, when he heard about Li Zicheng's Eastern Expedition, he thought that this guy was crazy and too good at showing off. He obviously didn't have anything to eat or drink and was afraid of an attack from the imperial court. In order to gain strategic depth and offset internal friction, he pretended to go on an Eastern Expedition with a million troops to overthrow him.
The imperial court...
Damn it, I don’t know how thick and long you are, and you have an army of millions.
But after hearing that this guy was invincible after crossing the Yellow River, he was very shocked and surprised. Is the imperial court now so corrupt? Is it so vulnerable?
No fight, no stop, I will surrender if you come...
Damn it, if that were the case, Huang Lai'er wouldn't have gotten a big advantage. Zhang Xianzhong was a little annoyed that he had misjudged the situation. You must know that Li Zicheng had also contacted him when he was about to go to the Eastern Expedition. They wanted to work together and at least respond, but
He had just entered Sichuan at that time, and there were still a lot of unsettled snakes here, so he had no time to interfere with you.
result……
Li Zicheng was defeated in Taiyuan?
Zhou Yuji is so fierce, good guy, he hit the iron plate, he pretended to be struck by lightning, hahaha!
What the hell, it’s not bright in the west but bright in the east. Liu Fangliang fought all the way to Baoding Prefecture. Oh my god, they took and robbed them all the way. From more than a dozen prefectures and counties, it’s getting bigger, it’s getting bigger!
At this moment, Zhang Xianzhong was almost jealous to death, and he was so jealous that he was even worried that if Li Zicheng really attacked the city of Beijing, really... shit, then wouldn't he be the emperor, then I...
Hahahaha, we were defeated again. This time, we added cannon fodder to the real army of hundreds of thousands. They were beaten so badly that they retreated with bruises and swollen faces, and fled thousands of miles away. Damn it, eunuchs appeared from nowhere. I have never heard of such fierce fighting.
,What, he was the one supervising the battle in Taiyuan?
Then, the defense of the capital, the defense of Qingzhou, the battle of Ningyuan, all kinds of information and intelligence were sent over the mountains and ridges...
At this time, Zhang Xianzhong remembered the name of the eunuch, Rentu Changyu!
Invincible.
Gods come to kill gods, and Buddhas come to kill Buddhas.
Li Zicheng, who had caused the imperial court to suffer from sleeplessness and loss of troops for decades, was subdued by him. His generals were killed and surrendered. The foreign enemies, the Tatar cavalry, were invincible. They entered the pass several times to plunder, which frightened the imperial troops and even stopped them.
He dared to come forward to intercept him, but he was chased and beaten by the eunuch. In more than ten years, he had never seen a Tatar being chased and beheaded!
Still chasing after thousands of miles!
Having worked with Zuo Liangyu and Lu Daqi for many years, Bai Wang, who was sure to win every battle, went down the river to attack Nanjing...
The great eunuch led his troops south, and Bai Wang died!
During the rebellion in Yunnan, the eunuch traveled thousands of miles away to put out the fire. In a short time, the situation was settled, and he also set a fire in Chongqing along the way, causing the already uneven situation in Sichuan to become violently shaken...
Later, Li Zicheng, who was arrogant for a while, retreated to the west of the Yellow River, not daring to take another step beyond the thunder pool...
Peace talks?
Damn it!
It’s down! This dogecoin!
Zuo Liangyu is dead... Well, this old boy is actually dead. It means he has lost a big enemy. If he dies, people will be scattered in Wuchang, and Wuchang will be in chaos. The court will be so anxious that it will have no time to take care of itself...
What?
Wuchang sent 100,000 troops to march west...
What is this for?
When he first heard the news, Zhang Xianzhong was still shocked. After all, he, a group of staff and his godson had clearly assessed the situation before. That is, even though the eunuch was brave, the court currently had no strength or ability at all.
Come and regain Sichuan.
The reason is very good. The already stretched imperial court suffered from severe drought, earthquakes, and locust plagues during this year, which made the people miserable and the national treasury at the bottom. Moreover, after Li Zicheng's Eastern Expedition, millions of people in dozens of provinces and state capitals were wandering around.
They lost their homes, the land was abandoned, and the food harvests were lost, resulting in a famine unprecedented in a century... In addition, they fought several tough battles with the Tatars, and then went to Pingbaiwang...
The imperial court has no money, no food, no soldiers, and no generals at this time, so what can you give me?
Otherwise, with such a huge advantage, they would finally shake hands with Li Zicheng and make peace, because for whatever reason, it’s not because they lacked stamina!
He is now stronger than Li Zicheng. The imperial court can't even defeat Li Zicheng, so how can they have the ability to defeat him, not to mention the natural barrier. It will take at least several years for them to recover, and he is taking advantage of this time to recuperate.
When running Sichuan, it was so impregnable that you couldn't get in even if you gave me a shit!
But when he suddenly heard that Wuchang had sent 100,000 troops, Zhang Xianzhong panicked and calculated everything, but he missed this point.
The imperial court does not have the ability and strength, no money or food, but Zuo Liangyu does! This guy is said to have an army of 200,000. It is possible to have 100,000 if you throw away the water, and this guy has a rich family.
It's just that Zuo Liangyu, an old fox, is unwilling to be used as a spearman by the imperial court. He has his own thoughts and calculations. You just stand still and watch the fire from the other side, so Zhang Xianzhong knows that this guy will not come to attack him.
Even after hearing the news of Zuo Liangyu's death, he expected that Wuchang would be in chaos. The various factions under his command were in disarray and had no intention of fighting with him.
But who would have thought that the chaos didn't happen, and they sent troops to the west.
Zhang Xianzhong knew at this moment that the imperial court had taken over Zuo Liangyu's troops, horses, food and fodder, and to be able to take over all of Zuo Liangyu's troops without causing trouble... was undoubtedly the eunuch!
awesome!
This made Zhang Xianzhong and his staff admire him. This great eunuch was able to achieve such a great reputation. He really had two extraordinary skills.
Such a strong opponent naturally attracted his attention.
It's really stressful to have an army of 100,000 people coming.
This was only external pressure. In fact, Sichuan was still unstable at this time, and many chieftains had not yet surrendered. Most of them were acting in a yin and yang manner and acting according to the wind. What's more, there was Qin Liangyu in Shizhu and Zeng Ying in Shunqing (now Nanchong).
So when this gust of wind blew, it really gave Zhang Xianzhong's group quite a headache. The eunuch was so capable of fighting from south to north. He was as powerful as the invincible Tatar cavalry in the world, and he was cunning and experienced like Li Zicheng. It is said that he hit him head-on.
He never follows common sense when marching to win a battle. Can the natural barrier in Sichuan stop him? With such an outstanding personal ability and an army of 100,000, good guy, you really need to be careful when dealing with it.
Zhang Xianzhong was debating whether to draw troops from Chengdu and other places to prepare for the attack. On this issue, his subordinates had their own opinions and were very quarrelsome. There was still instability in various places in Sichuan, and the troops were already stretched thin. If they were withdrawn, chaos would easily occur.
But when a hundred thousand troops attack, you must first keep an eye on the gate. Although Kuizhou is the east gate, it has natural dangers, but it is not foolproof. Didn’t you rush in at the beginning? So you must send more troops. Although Chongqing is
There are a lot of troops on the side, but how could the old woman in Shizhu next to her not take advantage of the situation at the critical moment?
