Through Yitian: Mingzun Zhang Wuji

Chapter 657 A Great Victory
When Zhang Wuji saw this, he knocked him to the ground with one palm.

He found that the soldier's eyes were red, but his strength was not very great. He was just not afraid of pain and was in an unusually high state.

Zhang Wuji was proficient in medicine. After a brief examination, he then grabbed a few soldiers and examined it carefully.

Zhang Wuji couldn't help but sneered when he saw this.Then Zhang Wuji said: "This method is really despicable, but I am very curious about where Zhu Yuanzhang got such a thing."

Lan Yu asked in confusion: "Oh? What did they use?"

Zhang Wuji shook his head and said meaningfully: "Don't say it, don't say it. Just know that this is not a good thing. Using this method shows that Tang He has reached the end of his strength."

Since Zhang Wuji didn't want to say more, Lan Yu naturally didn't ask any more questions.However, Lan Yu was still curious about what Zhu Yuanzhang used to make these soldiers so crazy.

In fact, the things that could make these soldiers become violent were things that were explicitly prohibited in Zhang Wuji's original era.

Zhang Wuji did not expect that this kind of thing would be introduced to China so early. According to the medical knowledge that Zhang Wuji had learned, as well as his own history, they all told him that these things would have to wait at least until the Age of Discovery began. will flow from Southeast Asia to the Central Plains.I didn't expect to see it here today.

Although the enemy's offensive was very fierce, the defenders in Suzhou City were also very tenacious in their resistance.

This was because Zhao Min fought bloody battles even though she was pregnant. In addition, the news that the girl in yellow had returned safely and that reinforcements were in place on the periphery completely inspired the low morale of the soldiers.

Soon the first round of attacks was completely repulsed by the defenders of Suzhou City and Zhang Wuji's fierce fighting.

Everyone looked at Wu Jun who was retreating in despair, and couldn't help waving flags and shouting.

After another victory, the resistance of the defenders in Suzhou City was also unprecedentedly high.

But on the contrary, the soldiers of Wu Army began to fight cowardly.

After all, the Yuan Dynasty now only has part of the land north of the Yellow River and Qilu, and the day when it will be driven away is not far away.

No one wants to fall on the eve of victory in the war.

Because of Zhao Min's surprise attack and this siege battle, Zhu Yuanzhang's troops suffered heavy losses, and the morale of the Wu army suddenly fell to a low point.

When morale is low, "mutinies" can occur.

In the next seven or eight days, this kind of thing happened one after another in the Wu army's camp. Although all four generals of the Huaixi faction were dispatched this time, Suzhou City was not shaken by half.They also gradually lost control of the army.

During this period, many soldiers who once belonged to the Mingjiao Red Scarf Army defected to Zhang Wuji's side.

Their identities were also confirmed by Lan Yu.

Once deserters appear in an army and fail to be stopped in time, a chain reaction will occur.

Many soldiers who did not join the Mingjiao found those who were disciples of the Mingjiao, recognized them as "masters", and then used their connections to join the Mingjiao.Then they defected together to Zhang Wuji to save their lives.

And Zhang Wuji accepted them without hesitation and took them in.Although there is a lot of detail mixed in, it is not important.

After all, in this situation, those who are still loyal to Zhu Yuanzhang are not fools, but absolute loyal ministers and righteous men. He respects such people.

But it was also from this time that Zhang Wuji realized how outrageous the development methods of the branches of the Mingjiao in China were.

At least Guo Zixing's group is outrageous. The method of development of Mingjiao believers under Guo Zixing is exactly the same as that of a certain gang.It is simply a master leading a disciple. As long as one worships the master and enters his sect, then even the disciples of the Ming Cult will have their own rank and seniority.

And if a disciple with a seniority in the font accepts other disciples, then his disciples will also be disciples of the Ming Cult.In this way, starting from Zhang Wuji, the Mingjiao disciples of Guo Zixing's old tribe have been passed down for three generations. Zhang Wuji, the leader, is their great-grandfather in terms of seniority.

He finally understood why the Middle-earth Mingjiao was doing good things, but its reputation in the Central Plains was so bad. It was strange that this "underworld" model of joining the religion could recruit good people.

After Zhang Wuji checked, except for some who had made military exploits and had no obvious bad deeds, their status as Mingjiao members was retained. The status of the rest of them was removed from their membership on the spot by him, the leader of the Mingjiao.

This is not because Zhang Wuji is ruthless, but because he wants to completely turn the Ming Cult into a formalized group.In the future, in addition to the formal imperial examinations, officials will also be selected from among Mingjiao believers.

He wants to slowly kick Kong Laoer's disciples and grandchildren out of the core of power.Using their own Mingjiao system, these "heroes" who truly practice chivalry and are upright will serve the people of the world.

The daily administrative affairs of the imperial court will be handled by these disciples of Confucius in the future.

But for their supervision and administrative review power, it is left to the disciples of the Mingjiao Department.

In this case, these scholars would be willing to ride horses for the king for the sake of fame and fortune.The officials of the Mingjiao Department served as the emperor's agents to supervise at all times and guide these scholars so that they would not be corrupted or have the strong "class" and "official master" consciousness as Kong Laoer.

And those scholars who were disciples of Kong Lao Er could only believe in "Ming Zun" for the sake of higher power.

If Zhang Wuji wants to accomplish this, he must completely formalize and make Mingjiao transparent.Kick all this crap out.

In the following days, Tang He and others' offensive became weaker and weaker.

With the help of Huo Jia, Huang Shinu and others, the loss rate of his soldiers has been greatly reduced.

It was not until ten days later that the army completely retreated.

Zhang Wuji stood at the top of the city, looking at the Suzhou City after the smoke, and at the Wu army retreating in embarrassment.He sighed first, then chuckled.

Seeing Zhang Wuji's strange expression, Huo Jia asked strangely: "What is your expression? Are you unhappy that the enemy has retreated and the danger has been saved?"

Zhang Wuji shook his head and said: "Of course I am happy. I sigh because tens of thousands of innocent people were killed and wounded in this battle. And I laugh because we saved the day."

The woman in yellow shirt asked at this time: "Then what should we do next?"

At this time, Zhang Wuji put his hands on the shoulders of the girl in yellow shirt and Huo Jia.

This time, both beauties did not reject Zhang Wuji, but looked at him at the same time.

Zhang Wuji said: "Let's go east to Hangzhou and visit the West Lake!"

Huo Jia blinked and then said, "Are you still in the mood to swim in the West Lake?"

Su Mengqing, who was standing behind the two men, now understood Zhang Wuji's intention.

Su Mengqing said: "Your Majesty is wise!"

Huo Jia looked back at Su Mengqing and asked, "Girl, is this the time to flatter you?"

The girl in yellow shirt, who has always been calm and wise, also understood Zhang Wuji's strategic intention. She said: "This is not flattery. Brother Wuji wants to take advantage of the enemy's retreat to take over the entire Jiangnan. Now we have abundant money and food, and the enemy's morale is low. We can fully take over the surrounding cities without wasting much effort."
