Ming Dynasty: Every day, Zhu Yuanzhang is in trouble

Chapter 485: The shocking killing of King Liang! Did the Ming Dynasty have divine help?

"Your Majesty, the Pseudo-Ming is now very powerful. Although Zhu Chongba was born a beggar, his ambition is incomparable to that of ordinary people.

Now, it has been ten years since the Yuan Dynasty returned to its homeland.

Many places that originally belonged to our Yuan Dynasty have been seized by that bastard Zhu Yuanzhang.

Zhu Yuanzhang had sent people to summon us many times, wanting us to surrender.

The envoy has been killed by us before, and I am afraid that he will soon be unable to control himself and use force against us.

Please take precautions early, so that the Pseudo-Ming will not suddenly launch an attack in the future, which will be difficult to contain."

Southwest, Kunming, in the Liang Wang Palace, Pingzhang Darima looked at the Liang Wang and spoke earnestly.

"Darima, you are too worried!"

As Darima's voice fell, another voice sounded.

It turned out to be Zuo Cheng Dade.

There was a smile on his face, as if he was very disdainful of what Darima said.

"Zhu Chongba doesn't have the courage to use his troops against us easily.

If he really dared to use military force against us, then before that, this guy would not have sent people here so many times to ask us to surrender.

Even when the envoy he sent was beheaded by the king, this bastard did not dare to show the slightest disrespect.

I could only hold my anger in and not vent it.

Later, people continued to be sent.

Why is this?

It’s because this bastard knows that we are very far away from his Ming Dynasty.

Moreover, the mountains are high and the forests are dense, making them difficult to conquer, and the roads are rugged and inconvenient to walk on.

Also, don’t be fooled by how strong Zhu Yuanzhang seems to be and how hot-tempered he is.

But the reality is far from that.

This person is just bluffing in most cases.

Just like we have beheaded his envoys here, Japan has also beheaded his envoys.

But what happened?
Both Japan and here, everything is fine now.

Zhu Chongba doesn't even dare to say a word about these things!"

"Okay! That's right! I think so too!"

As soon as Dade finished speaking, another voice sounded.

This man was a minister under King Liang, holding a high position of power and authority, and was the Right Prime Minister Lu'er.

"If Zhu Chongba wanted to attack us, he would have done so long ago.

Why wait until now?

Not to mention other places, just the long distance, the rugged road along the way, the harsh climate, the numerous mosquitoes, miasma and other things would make Zhu Yuanzhang suffer a lot.

It would be fine if he didn't come, but if he really came, just these things alone would definitely cause serious losses to his troops!
And it’s not that we don’t have any capable fighters here.

Taking advantage of the geographical location here, it is only natural to wipe out the Ming army.

We can kill as many as they come, no need to worry at all!"

Hearing what the two of them said, Darima was secretly worried.

At the same time, he also seemed a little angry.

He has a hot temper and is deeply aware of the difficulties of the current situation.

Therefore, there was an immediate tit-for-tat response.

"Your Majesty, don't listen to their nonsense!

Don't take any chances in this matter!

Our area is indeed mountainous and forested, with rugged roads and difficult terrain, making it difficult to advance troops.

But these are not real obstacles.

Since ancient times, many Han people have had a strong desire for the southwest.

During the Qin Dynasty, Emperor Qin Shi Huang began to attack and govern the southwest.

They brought large tracts of territory in the southwest into their hands.

Since then, successive unified dynasties will never give up these places.

Zhu Yuanzhang was actually a very patient person. When the envoy was beheaded by our side, he kept silent and never used force.

And they want us to surrender voluntarily.

On the one hand, it is because it is indeed difficult to attack here.

He doesn't want to make too many sacrifices.

On the other hand, it was also because at that time, the Pseudo-Ming still had a lot of things to do.

It has been twelve years since he founded the country.

Many problems within the Ming Dynasty have been resolved.

Moreover, I also heard that a strange man appeared in the Ming Dynasty, who was his son-in-law.

This person seems like a god, and his actions are amazing.

According to the information I have received, the Ming Dynasty today is very different from before.

So it is not surprising at all that Zhu Yuanzhang would want to attack us now.

We still need to pay more attention.”

After hearing what Darima said, King Liang, who had been silent, finally spoke.

“I think Zuo Cheng and the others are right.

Our area is mountainous and forested, so Zhu Chongba is afraid of sending troops to attack us, so there is no need to worry too much."

Upon hearing King Liang's words, Darima immediately became anxious.

I was ready to say something right away.

But at this moment, the voice of King Liang was heard again.

“However, Pingzhang’s concerns are not without reason.

We need to be on guard against Zhu Yuanzhang mobilizing troops."

Darima let out a sigh of relief in an instant.

I think King Liang is pretty good.

“So, I think it would be better if you, Darima, lead some soldiers to the appropriate places to set up defenses.

To prevent any further unusual movements from Zhu Yuanzhang.

Of course, to be on the safe side, this needs to be done slowly.

Otherwise Zhu Yuanzhang would think that we are hostile.

It would be bad if they wanted to attack us even though they had no intention of attacking us. "

Upon hearing this, Darima bowed down and felt that although King Liang was a little weak in character, he was still okay.

He is a person worthy of assistance.

There are still many things that need to be considered.

He immediately accepted the appointment.

However, he did not leave. Instead, he hesitated for a moment, looked at King Liang and said, "Your Majesty, I think there is one thing you can do besides this."

King Liang did not say anything, but cast his gaze on him, waiting for his next words.

Darima gritted his teeth and said, "As for the Duan family in Dali, Your Majesty may be able to use some means to ease the relationship with them in the future.

Continue to make them work for us.

If Zhu Yuanzhang really attacks us in the future, with the help of these people, our chances of winning will be much greater.

Perhaps, after Zhu Yuanzhang learns that we have made peace, he will automatically give up the idea of ​​attacking us. It is not impossible..."

"No! The Duan family is just a bunch of dogs, there's no need to treat them too well!

Let’s discuss this matter later!”

King Liang rejected it directly and clearly.

Darima couldn't help but sigh when he saw this, thinking that the king was really too willful...

The Dali Duan clan is a very powerful force in the southwest. They have lived in the southwest for a long time.

It can be said that it is luxuriant, deeply rooted and very powerful.

If we could unite with the Duan family of Dali.

Then in the future, they will definitely be able to get a lot of help.

However, he actually understood why the king made such a choice.

After all, there is a deep hatred between the current king and the Duan family, which is not so easy to resolve.

It is said that when the world was in chaos, Ming Yuzhen, who occupied Shuzhong, sent people here to attack Yunnan.

At that time, the Duan family of Dali tried their best to fight against Ming Yuzhen.

Join forces with the king and fight with all your might.

In the end, the southwest was saved and Ming Yuzhen and his men were defeated.

It can be said that the king still owns the southwest, in addition to the unique location of the southwest. Besides, he and others are also very motivated.

The Duan family of Dali played an indispensable role in this matter.

Later, in order to thank the Dali Duan family for their efforts in this matter.

The king also married his daughter to Duan Gong of the Duan clan of Dali.

This will bring the two families together.

Originally this was a situation where everyone was happy, but soon after, this situation was broken.

The reason for this is that the king feels that Duan Gong's power is too great.

I feel that if it is not curbed, the southwest part of this area may be regained by Duan Gong in the future.

It is a particularly big threat to their king.

So the princess was asked to poison Duan Gong and kill him.

But unfortunately, girls cannot be kept at home when they grow up.

The water thrown out by the married daughter.

Her Royal Highness the Princess actually fell in love with Duan Gong.

After receiving the order, he not only did not execute it, but also told Duan Gong everything.

As a result, Duan Gong was furious.

Under such circumstances, the king still took action and sent people to assassinate Duan Gong.

It was also because of this incident that the Duan family of Dali and the king became complete enemies, and they have been incompatible ever since.

It's hard to say who is right or wrong in this matter.

In his opinion, it was necessary for the king to do so at that time.

But each thing is different.

We could have done that at that time, but now we need to ease relations with them.

After all, the largest one now is Ming Dynasty.

If Zhu Yuanzhang really used military force against them, many things would be difficult to accomplish without the help of the Duan family of Dali.

On the contrary, if the Duan family could help, things would be just as he said. After Zhu Yuanzhang received the news, he would need to think more about it.

It is very likely that they will never take action against them again in the future.

Even if a fight really breaks out, both sides will not be without the ability to fight if they join forces.

This is the best result.

But unfortunately, the king did not give enough thought to this matter. He was too embarrassed to admit his mistake.

That would be difficult to do.

Today, when faced with my proposal, the king has already agreed to one of them.

So under this circumstance, he could only suppress this thought temporarily.

Don't say too much about what's going on here.

Let’s talk about it later.

Hasn't the Ming Dynasty sent troops to attack them yet?
In the future, when the Ming Dynasty really sends troops to them, I think the king will have a better understanding of this matter.

Will reconcile with the Duan family.

I'm just a little worried that the Duan family is unwilling to cooperate.

However, after this thought arose in his mind, he quickly suppressed it.

He felt that his worries might be unnecessary.

Even I know the truth that if the lips are gone, the teeth will be cold.

I think the Duan family would know about this too.

From this point of view, it would be best for Zhu Yuanzhang to use military force in the southwest in the future.

If they really use military force here, then it would be the best time for them to unite with the Duan family to resolve the conflict.

I think that by that time, when the Ming army is approaching, the Duan family of Dali will be forced to face the reality and make a very wise choice.

Join forces with the king to protect the southwest and resist the Ming Dynasty...

Darima left from here, and the left prime minister Dade and the right prime minister Lu'er also left from here.

The two of them didn't care much about Darima's words about guarding against the Ming Dynasty using military force against them.

I just think this person is a little too pessimistic.

The matter is not as serious as he said.

But then, shocking news came soon.

It is said that Zhu Yuanzhang has mobilized a large army in three directions to attack the southwest!

One group was Fu Youde, one was Lan Yu, and the other was Mu Ying.

A total of three hundred thousand troops were deployed!
After hearing the news, King Liang, who was living his life peacefully, jumped out of bed.

He pushed the princess on his body aside.

I've lost all interest.

He immediately ordered people to summon the left and right prime ministers, as well as Darima.

After finding out what happened, Darima felt happy but more worried when facing Lu'er, Dade and others.

Unfortunately, what he predicted actually came true!

Zhu Yuanzhang has really sent troops!
Moreover, the speed of dispatching troops was much faster than he expected.

It’s such a big scene as soon as the fight starts!

Directly mobilize 300,000 troops.

It looks like they are going to take over the entire southwest.

After the initial panic, King Liang and his men soon managed to calm down.

A series of troop deployments were carried out.

Let Darima ride as fast as he can to Qujing immediately.

Organize manpower, build a defense line relying on the river, and make sure to stop the Ming Dynasty's troops there.

Don’t let them cross the river!
After some hesitation, King Liang finally did not send anyone to contact the Duan family in Dali.

This is because he felt that in this situation, the people from the Dali Duan family would take the initiative to find him for reconciliation.

On the other hand, I still have something to rely on in my heart.

They felt that the journey from the Ming Dynasty to their place was filled with smoke and the road was rugged and difficult to travel.

In addition, there are other troops blocking the way, and the Ming Dynasty is likely to suffer heavy casualties.

Don't worry so much.

However, a month and a half later, a series of news came.

It is said that the Ming Dynasty's troops have already penetrated deep into the hinterland of this place!

Among them, Mu Ying even came all the way to the front of Darima!
The rugged terrain here, as well as the miasma and epidemics that he was concerned about, seemed to have no effect all of a sudden.

The Ming army did not suffer any major casualties!
After receiving this accurate information, King Liang panicked instantly!
