Overnight, urgent military information from 800 miles away came one after another.
Dandong was lost, Fushun was lost, and the Baodao Army was approaching Shenyang and was about to occupy the entire territory of Liaoning.
The government and the public were shocked. Twelve cities fell one after another overnight, which was really unexpected. The emperor was furious and ordered the mobilization of troops to prepare for war with the enemy in Liaoning.
Unfortunately, in recent years, trains have always been heading south, extracting benefits from the south, but they have not had time to extend north, so trains cannot be used to transport troops.
While mobilizing troops, Shenyang fell.
At the same time, rebels appeared one after another in the south, and the court encountered an unprecedented crisis.
The fight suddenly broke out, and it was done by land, sea and air. It seemed that the Guo Jiajun had been planning for a long time. If they didn't take action, they would make great achievements.
As the main force of the rebel army, the Mingjiao also responded positively. Zhang Wuji also received a letter from Zhu Yuanzhang, requesting him as the leader to take charge of the work.
The rebel army in the south fought extremely fiercely. Although they conquered the city, they suffered heavy casualties.
The rebels of the Ming Cult still lack a unified program and a reason to fight. This requires Zhang Wuji, the leader of the Ming Cult, to promote it.
Zhang Wuji originally wanted to stand out and make contributions, so naturally he would not give up, so he put down his work and went to participate in the war.
Facing the war, the six sects were also worried about the situation at home, so they were eager to leave Dadu.
But King Ruyang felt that he could not let them leave so easily, especially Dulan, because he felt that it was Dulan who was provoking the war. If Dulan left, he would be letting the tiger go back to the mountain, with endless troubles.
So King Ruyang invited troops to surround the residences of the six major sects. He thought this could delay the war.
Then he wouldn't leave. Du Lan told King Ruyang that the six major sects would stay in Dadu to run schools. Anyway, Dadu is still peaceful now.
Flowers bloomed from the north to the south. Although the King's Division of the Yuan Dynasty had the best cavalry, the enemy had bicycles, and their mobility was no worse than horses. Although they could not charge with bicycles, this was the age of hot weapons, and bicycles were enough to carry out mobile ambushes.
Times have changed, and lining up and formation has fallen behind. Today's war relies on trenches and barbed wire, and it is a positional war.
Dayuan's combat ideas were backward and he suffered a lot on the battlefield.
However, after all, Dayuan still occupies a large area of land, and its war potential is greater than that of Baodao and the Rebel Army. Moreover, the lords of the Western Regions still have to give Dayuan face to some extent. If the emperor asks them to send troops, they will send troops.
Regarding the war, many people in Dadu are now discussing it. Most people think that Dayuan will win. Of course, some people think that Dayuan is now in trouble internally and externally. Under the attack from the north and the south, if there are people with evil intentions to get involved, then Dayuan will be defeated. Yuanhui is in crisis.
For example, there are many Fuso warriors in the Baodao Army now. It can be seen that the people of Fuso Kingdom still yearn for the mainland and want to expand to the mainland. Maybe they will come to fish in troubled waters. Fuso has not been very peaceful in the past few years.
When the Yuan Dynasty was founded, Huazheng wanted to cross the sea and conquer Fuso, but later failed due to various reasons. Fuso is not actually unified now. Although nominally the entire country has only one ruler, the emperor, in fact it is a divided feudal system. It was the Warring States period of Fuso, which was also the era of samurai. The status of samurai in Japan was very high, and only samurai were qualified to have a disembowelment.
In addition to samurai, the Treasure Island Army also has many primitive people from Southeast Asian islands, and there are Indians further away. It is also a multinational joint force. There is no way, the Treasure Island is sparsely populated, and it can only attract immigrants to join the war.
At this time, King Ruyang was very anxious. The war was a terrible drain on the national power. The soldiers at the front needed supplies of arms, ammunition, and food. After several battles, the national treasury ran out of money.
Some people may not believe that the Yuan Dynasty will run out of money after decades of development. There is definitely money, and there is a lot of it, but it is not in the treasury, but in the hands of corrupt officials and powerful people. They will not use the money to support the emperor.
The cost of fighting the war was much greater than expected. The emperor was frowning all day long. The biggest problem was that he still lost the war after spending money, which was even more irritating.
King Ruyang looked at the emperor and wanted to share his worries. Finally King Ruyang expressed his reasoning. He wanted to tell the emperor that during these hundreds of years of history, there were people who were behind it.
King Ruyang was afraid that the emperor would not believe it, so he produced various historical materials to provide supporting evidence.
…
After hearing this, the emperor only felt that it was a fantasy. Although he also knew that his ancestor Hua Zheng had the support of Tianshan Fairy to establish Dayuan, King Ruyang's words were too exaggerated.
"My dear, are you being too alarmist?"
"Your Majesty, I am willing to guarantee it with my head. As long as I recruit Du Lan, who is disguised as Zhang Sanfeng, to confront me, the truth will be revealed." "I believe that this Great Yuan crisis is their conspiracy."
But the emperor still didn't believe it, "I don't believe that anyone can control my country, I don't believe it!"
"Your Majesty, those are all facts. I also heard that Guo Jing, the founder of the Guo Jiajun, has a relationship with Du Lan. The Guo Jiajun is clearly their hidden son and must be secretly supported by them." "I requested the order to level the Tianshan Mountains for the sake of peace.
The Great Yuan eradicated the evil." King Ruyang was a truly loyal minister. In order to support the emperor in the war, he sold his property and fully supported the military.
Now it seems that the emperor still doesn't believe in himself. King Ruyang knelt on the ground and cried bitterly. He really didn't want to watch this country being destroyed by bad people.
"I want evidence." The emperor finally said, and he gave King Ruyang a chance: "As long as you can produce evidence, I will believe you."
"I must find evidence."
But when he returned home, King Ruyang was worried. He found like-minded people to discuss how to find evidence.
"Catch him and torture him," someone said.
King Xin of Ruyang said that he failed to ambush the musketeers, so how could he catch them?
In the end, King Ruyang decided to provoke Dulan because he thought that Dulan would spill the beans because of his arrogance. When the time comes, he could just ask the emperor to hide next door, and he would definitely succeed.
That's it.
King Ruyang invited Dulan to have dinner at the best restaurant in Dadu.
Dulan was very considerate and took time off from school work to attend the banquet.
"King Ruyang, you are corrupt. The battle is going on at the front, but you are corruptly treating guests to dinner at the back. Do you think you are seeking death?" Dulan threatened King Ruyang as soon as he arrived.
Wang Xin of Ruyang said that if it were not for the country, he would not be willing to eat it: "It's funny, I think it's better to invite real people to dinner. I have some things to ask."
"For my disciple's sake, let's chat while we eat," Dulan said.
Serve.
King Ruyang said that Dulan was unpredictable. Although he and his comrades had made several plans before coming, Dulan disrupted the plan as soon as he arrived. However, the emperor was next door and he had to continue.
"Zhenzhen Zhang, I recently re-read history books and made some discoveries. I ask Zhenzhen for your enlightenment."
"It's easy to say, I also like history." I especially like to tamper with history.
Wang Xin of Ruyang said that as long as you are happy to communicate, you must reveal your true identity: "Since the last time a real person claimed to be Dulan, I checked the history books. There are many interesting records about Dulan in them. I don't know Zhang
Does the real person know?”
"How did they write it?" Dulan wanted to hear.
It seems that it can be done. King Ruyang suppressed his excitement and said slowly.
