Call of the Heroes of Chaos in Another World

Chapter 2417 Ziya's arm is severed in battle, Chongba soars into the sky
After a series of eliminations, especially in recent years, Zhu Yuanzhang, who came from Da Wu to take advantage of the situation, has eliminated two rebel kings. In the past two years, Jiang Ziya has also wiped out the rebel kings in the northwest of Da Qian.

Therefore, at this stage, there are actually only a few rebel groups left in the Great Qian Dynasty.

After all, the current Daqian Dynasty is much better than the Daqian Dynasty in the original historical trajectory.

Despite the system balancing out a few rebel kings, the Great Qian royal family actually gained much more.

Most of those who were incorporated into the various schools of thought were scions of aristocratic families, and the vast majority of them naturally stood on the same side as the Great Qian Dynasty.

Xiao Ping'an was nominally backed by the Jie Sect, but this was not the Investiture of the Gods world, and the Three Pure Ones did not have such a high degree of control over their disciples.

Among the three religions, there are very few who are obedient to the beginning, and among the mixed and chaotic Jie Sect, there are even fewer who are obedient.

Even Xie Wuyun, as a core disciple, would not go to Xiao Ping'an's place. He is a true descendant of the Great Wu family, how could he abandon his family and career to go to Xiao Ping'an's place?
When needed, especially when there is no conflict of interest, I might lend a hand at most, but if it's truly a matter of complete loyalty, even if it's an order from all over the world, it's impossible to do that directly.

Therefore, in this era, the development environment for the Great Qian rebels is actually more difficult.

Of the remaining rebel kings, Xuan Wang Xiao Ping'an appears to be the most powerful.

But it is also the easiest lane to play at this stage.

The remaining figures, such as Tian Qi and Li Mi, were indeed far less powerful than Xiao Ping'an in terms of overall influence.

However, these companies have been in a state of recuperation for the past two years, while Xiao Ping'an, on the other hand, has been fighting for so many years that his internal resources are no longer sustainable.

Coupled with the panic caused by the ruler's lack of an heir, it can be said that all the low-level buffs were instantly maxed out.

Most importantly, as Jiang Ziya managed to maintain the fragmented Daqian dynasty in name only, Zhu Yuanzhang, who was fighting against Xiao Ping'an, had already ceased hostilities for various reasons.

Even when the two sides signed the ceasefire agreement, Xiao Ping'an and Zhu Yuanzhang had a very pleasant conversation.

These two men have such similar experiences; both rose from humble beginnings to achieve their goals, and their ideologies are also quite compatible.

Like many rebel kings, after they developed their power, they ultimately became the dragons themselves. They were once the oppressed who rose up against oppression, but after they achieved a certain level of success, they became the ones who oppressed the common people.

Only a few people, such as Xiao Ping'an and Zhu Yuanzhang, were able to maintain their original aspirations to a certain extent and ensure that the people under their rule lived in peace and contentment.

Therefore, although these two people were in a hostile state for the sake of their great cause, they also had a certain degree of appreciation for each other.

Under these circumstances, if the Great Qian Dynasty were to deal with the other rebel kings first, it would essentially give Xiao Ping'an time to recuperate. By then, dealing with Xiao Ping'an would be far more difficult than doubled.

Thus, Xiao Ping'an naturally became the most important target of the Great Qian Dynasty.

It can only be said that if the target is Xiao Ping'an first, then Jiang Ziya taking command becomes almost inevitable! Only Jiang Chaoyu, the strongest of the five vassal kings of the Great Qian Dynasty, has the strength to confront this strongest of the rebel kings alone.

However, these two are located in the north and south of Daqian, respectively, and their troops would inevitably have to pass through the spheres of influence of other rebel kings. Moreover, Jiang Chaoyu could not possibly agree to let their family go and gnaw on Xiao Ping'an.

Under these circumstances, the forces of the various feudal lords would inevitably need to be consolidated. However, none of these feudal lords would be completely comfortable entrusting their troops entirely to another person.

Therefore, apart from Jiang Ziya as the commander-in-chief, there were no other candidates. Even Jiang Ren could only be considered half a candidate, and even that was less than half a candidate.

Not only members of the Great Qian imperial family, but also members of the remaining few families, only he could put Jiang Chaoyu and the others at ease.

Under these circumstances, Jiang Ziya still employed a feint, pretending to mobilize a large number of troops and resources to gather in the northeast of Daqian.

After all, only Tian Qi remains in the northeast of Daqian. If they can eliminate him, it means that the entire northern half of Daqian will be completely regained by Daqian, which is of great significance to Daqian.

Therefore, when Jiang Ziya made such a gesture, even Tian Wu was genuinely intimidated by him.

Jiang Ziya gathered the 30,000 most elite troops from the five vassal kings of the Great Qian Dynasty, along with powerful generals such as Jiang Qianqiu, Jiang Hou, Jiang Xiaohei, Niu Ba, Ming You, Yu Yuan, and Yu Hua, to launch a surprise attack on Xiao Ping'an's border.

At this time, Xiao Ping'an's main force had not yet completely shifted from the south back to the north, after all, he had just reached a peace agreement with Zhu Yuanzhang.

As a result, Xiao Ping'an suffered a great loss right from the start. Chi Zheng, one of his most important civil and military officers, Zhang Ergou, who had already broken through to the level of a divine general, along with more than a dozen other important generals such as Zhang Bixian, Tie Gongran, Mao Erhu, and Ding Bolang, all perished in this battle.

Of course, just like the Han Dynasty's war against the barbarians, which was only just beginning, the war to quell the rebellion within the Great Qian Dynasty, led by Jiang Ziya, was also only just beginning.

Zhu Yuanzhang, who had been fighting against Xiao Ping'an for the past two years, even directly engaging in major battles, sought to make peace with Xiao Ping'an at this time.

Firstly, it was indeed because the Great Qian Dynasty had gone from being divided to barely maintaining a nominal court, and the situation was very different from before. Zhu Yuanzhang also changed his strategy accordingly.

If the Great Qian Dynasty were to be unified again, and he continued to fight Xiao Ping'an, it would only benefit the Great Qian Dynasty.

Secondly, the internal situation of the Great Wu had changed.

After the fall of the Great Wu Dynasty, several rebel kings had been fighting each other for many years to seize the most central and fertile land of Great Wu, and they were exhausted from the struggle.

Under these circumstances, Zhu Yuanzhang, who had occupied the northeastern corner and parts of the eastern part of the former Wu kingdom, had already built high walls and stockpiled grain. It was now time for him to clean up the mess.

Therefore, among all the forces in the world at this stage, Zhu Yuanzhang is definitely one of the most comfortable and successful people.

While the Wu kingdoms were locked in a fierce battle, they successively seized a small kingdom and, in total, acquired about three more territories in the Qian kingdom.

Now, it's time to reap the rewards within the Great Wu, and it's safe to say that Zhu Yuanzhang is about to soar to great heights.
