The Proof of the Heavens Begins with The Legend of the Condor Heroes
Chapter 768: One Rules the World
Zhang Wuji and Zhou Zhiruo are old acquaintances, and this is not only because of their first meeting on the Han River.
It also comes from the close ties between Wudang, Mingjiao and the Tomb Stalker Sect.
Zhang Wuji's mother is the daughter of Yin Tianzheng, the White-browed Eagle King of the Ming Cult, and his adoptive father is Xie Xun, the Golden Lion King of the Ming Cult, which destined the bond between him and the Ming Cult.
What about Zhou Zhiruo? Her biological father is Zhou Ziwang, the leader of the Mingjiao rebel army. As the heir of the Ancient Tomb Sect, her master is the wife of the leader of the Mingjiao. It is not an exaggeration to say that she is a member of the Mingjiao.
The two have known each other since childhood and have met several times in Yingtian Prefecture. It can only be said that they have a good relationship.
By the way, Yingtian Prefecture is Jiqing. After Fang Hao unified the south, he changed its name to Yingtian Prefecture, which has the profound meaning of complying with the will of heaven.
"Junior Sister Zhou, you are too impulsive. Liu Futong betrayed the Ming Cult and still lived for so many years. He must have some extraordinary qualities." Zhang Wuji said.
"I underestimated him." Zhou Zhiruo thought for a moment and said, "But, Senior Brother Zhang, don't you think this is our best chance?"
"Junior Sister Zhou, are you thinking about this?" Zhang Wuji thought of a possibility.
"That's right, let's take advantage of this moment to strike back at him!" Zhou Zhiruo said, "Liu Futong will never expect that we will strike back at this time."
"That's a good idea, but your appearance has been exposed," Zhang Wuji said.
"It doesn't matter! I have this!" Zhou Zhiruo took out a human skin mask, put it on and said, "With this, they won't be able to recognize me."
Zhou Zhiruo had been traveling around the world, so naturally she had some cards up her sleeve. After the two of them discussed it, they decided to sneak back to the Marshal's Mansion.
Just as Zhou Zhiruo expected, after the assassination, the Marshal's Mansion was apparently tight but actually loose, and the two relied on their superb lightness skills to sneak back easily.
After entering the inner courtyard, Zhang Wuji took the initiative to lead away the guards in the Marshal's Mansion.
His martial arts were inherited from Zhang Sanfeng, and he had cultivated the Pure Yang Wuji Gong to an extremely high level.
He swung his sword and it turned into cold stars, which always landed accurately on the Shenmen acupoint on the enemy's palm, forcing the guards of the Marshal's Mansion to drop their weapons and lose their combat effectiveness.
Compared with Zhou Zhiruo, Zhang Wuji is extremely measured when attacking and usually does not kill anyone.
Zhou Zhiruo took this opportunity to sneak into the inner house and saw Liu Futong who had just taken off his armor.
"bass!"
Zhou Zhiruo swung her sword in return, and Liu Futong raised his knife to block. Unexpectedly, Zhou Zhiruo's sword was just a feint. She turned the sword tip and landed on Liu Futong's wrist holding the knife.
Liu Futong felt pain and his long sword fell to the ground. Zhou Zhiruo danced with the sword and the long sword was directly across Liu Futong's neck.
"Ms. Zhou, please don't kill me. I am willing to return to the command of Master Fang and fight against the Mongolian Tartars!" Liu Futong begged for mercy.
This former rebel leader was also blinded by the power struggle and became a coward.
Zhou Zhiruo showed disdain on her face, and with a flash of her sword, she killed Liu Futong directly.
After killing Liu Futong, Zhou Zhiruo and Zhang Wuji retreated calmly, leaving the Han Song regime in a mess and falling into civil strife.
After leaving the Grand Marshal's Mansion, the two saw a carriage parked on the road that must be passed through the alley.
There was a man in a cloak sitting in the carriage. He looked majestic and imposing.
"Who are you?" Zhou Zhiruo said in a deep voice, holding the hilt of the sword with one hand. Her intuition told her that the cloaked man in front of her must be a rare master in the world.
"Niece Zhiruo, I haven't seen you for several years. You have improved your skills again." The cloaked man slowly stood up, revealing a hideous face covered with scars. It was Fan Yao, the Right Envoy of the Ming Cult.
"Uncle Fan, why are you here?" Zhou Zhiruo was surprised when she saw Fan Yao.
"Here we go to kill someone." Fan Yao pointed at the Grand Marshal's Mansion and said, "But unfortunately, you guys got the head first."
Zhou Zhiruo seemed to have thought of something, and with a gleam in her eyes, she asked, "Is Master going to take action against Yuan Ting?"
"That's right." Fan Yao said, "The leader has been dormant in the south for several years and has already established a solid foundation. He is ready to march north. In this case, the traitor Liu Futong has no value in existence."
There are many experts in the Ming Cult's upper echelons. If they really wanted to deal with the traitor Liu Futong, why would they wait until now?
Fang Hao intended to use the traitor Liu Futong to attract the Yuan court's attention so as to buy himself time to grow stronger.
Now that everything is ready, only the east wind is missing, there is naturally no need for Liu Futong to live.
However, Fan Yao did not expect that his niece would act so quickly and kill Liu Futong before him.
"This must be Young Master Zhang from the Wudang Sect. It's true that heroes emerge from youth." Fan Yao looked at Zhang Wuji and said.
Wudang and Ming Cult have always been on good terms, so Fan Yao also admires Zhang Wuji very much.
Zhang Wuji clasped his fists towards the other party and said, "Right Envoy Fan, you are too polite."
He had heard from his grandfather that the Right Envoy of the Ming Cult was a very ruthless person and he would not recognize anyone except the Cult Leader Fang Hao. He was very arrogant.
After a conversation among the few people, Zhang Wuji learned that Fang Hao's Northern Expedition army had already started, and this war of unification that had lasted for several years would finally come to an end.
In this year, in Yingtian Prefecture of Nanjing, Fang Hao established a new dynasty and named the country "Ming".
In fact, in recent years, under the advice of his new adviser Liu Ji, Fang Hao has been cultivating land on a large scale to store food and fodder, and has also set up a talent recruitment hall to recruit talents from all over the world.
Then, Fang Hao took advantage of Liu Futong's apostasy to separate the new Ming Dynasty from the Ming Cult. With Fang Hao, the founding emperor, this matter went very smoothly.
Fang Hao's plan was to make Mingjiao the state religion, with all kinds of respect, but without real power. Although there would be many hidden dangers, there was only so much he could do.
As for what happens a hundred years later, future generations will be responsible for solving them.
Immediately afterwards, Fang Hao appointed Xu Da as the commander-in-chief and Chang Yuchun as the vanguard, leading an army of 200,000 to march north into the Central Plains.
"Expel the barbarians, restore China, establish rules and regulations, and save the people!" During the Northern Expedition, Fang Hao issued the "Edict to the Central Plains" to inspire the people in the north to rise up against the Yuan Dynasty.
Xu Da's army first took Shandong to remove the Yuan court's barrier, then attacked Henan to cut off its wings, and finally captured Tongguan to block its retreat, and finally advanced on several fronts to attack Dadu together.
At this time, the Yuan court was already in an isolated and helpless situation, and the Ming army won the battle with almost no effort.
Immediately afterwards, the army marched westward to Shanxi, northern Shaanxi, Guanzhong, and Gansu, and eventually swept across the world!
Relying on the policy of "building high walls, storing up grain, and slowly declaring oneself king", Fang Hao took Jiangnan as his base and overthrew the Yuan court's rule within a year, driving the Mongolian Tartars back to the grasslands.
The newly born Ming Dynasty, like the rising sun, stands tall in the east of the world. (End of this chapter)
