First Minister of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 339: Send you a white hat

After Zhu Yuanzhang stationed his army in Tongling, he immediately dispatched Chang Yuchun to lead three battalions of troops to Chizhou. At the same time, the navy fleet was mobilized to go upstream, posing a posture of advancing by water and land, and the soldiers pointed at Anqing.

However, Zhu Yuanzhang did not take the initiative to launch an offensive, at most it could only be regarded as an active defense.

One of the most fundamental reasons is that he is afraid of Chen Youliang's strength.

"In the upper position, we followed Master Peng, preached and trained for decades, and accumulated countless troops and horses... Now in Chen Youliang's hands, there are at least 400,000 soldiers in the water and army."

Hearing this amount, Zhu Yuanzhang's face was very ugly.

Zhu Sheng couldn't help but said, "Is there really so many? There are no imaginary numbers?"

Ding Pulang grinned, "If you say that the generals are subordinates, there may be false reports, but the total force will not be underestimated, maybe even more!"

Zhu Sheng was stunned for a moment, and was speechless after all.

Zhang Ximeng lowered his head and calculated secretly, but didn't say much.

This figure is by no means bragging.

Monk Peng has been preparing for the longest time, and there are countless disciples.

There are many people here, and there are not weak troops.

For example, Zhao Pusheng, after Monk Peng died in battle, he was guarding Chaohu Lake and had 20,000 to 30,000 horses. There were not a few people in Peng's party like him.

Ni Wenjun has been victorious in successive battles. After the recovery, he himself has tens of thousands of troops, and he has annexed many prisoners of the Yuan army. The number of his troops and horses exceeds 100,000.

Chen Youliang fully inherited Ni Wenjun's strength. At the same time, he continued to fight, and he also had strong strength. In addition to Xu Shouhui's subordinates, there were also some local forces.

These people add up to more than 300,000.

Don't count the increase in Chen Youliang's recruitment.

Huguang and Jiangxi are far larger than the two provinces of later generations and have a larger population. The surrounding area of ​​Dongting Lake is also an important grain production town. Although it was destroyed by war, it can barely eat enough. The situation is much better than that of Zhang Shicheng, Fang Guozhen and others. .

So simply estimate that Chen Youliang has more than 400,000 troops. This is not bragging.

Moreover, Chen Youliang also has an advantage, he can be unscrupulous and expand his troops, which is very difficult for the Zhu family army to do.

After a brief calculation, Zhang Ximeng said solemnly: "My lord, our total strength is less than Chen Youliang, and because we are in the four battles, we can mobilize a maximum of 200,000 people. In comparison, Chen Youliang has at least twice the superior strength. If you think that Chen Youliang is vulnerable and his subordinates are all rabble, then it would be wishful thinking and seriously underestimating the opponent. We cannot rely on guesswork to deal with the biggest enemy."

The biggest enemy!

Zhang Ximeng has already used the most severe words to describe Chen Youliang, and none of the monarchs and ministers present objected. Obviously, everyone acquiesced to this fact.

Although Ding Pulang and Fu Youde chose to revolt and joined Zhu's army.

But both of them are quite special and cannot be generalized.

In fact, as a team brought out by a professional rebel family, Tianwan's soldiers and horses are quite effective. After all, the weak chickens have long been eliminated. These people are slick and cunning, fierce and daring to fight, and full of brave people.

They may have all kinds of problems, the only point is that their combat effectiveness cannot be underestimated.

"In terms of military strength, we are indeed in a weak position, but Chen Youliang is also in many dangers, and his disadvantage is obvious. First and foremost, he devoured the master twice, and his people are unstable... General Ding and the others have already taken refuge. Others, such as Bashu Mingyuzhen, only I'm afraid he may not obey Chen Youliang's dispatch."

As soon as Zhang Ximeng finished speaking, Fu Youde said: "Zhang Xiang, passing through Bashu in a humble position, Ming Yuzhen is indeed arrogant and arrogant and cannot tolerate others. I don't think he is willing to be manipulated by Chen Youliang."

"That's natural."

Ding Pulang took over the words, "Ming Yuzhen is arrogant and arrogant. Back then, he led the army to dominate one side, mobilized a lot of troops to force him, and then he was willing to join. By the way, this Ming Yuzhen, his eyes are heavy. Tong, everyone says he has the appearance of an overlord, but he is eight feet tall and has extraordinary physical strength. He does have the bravery of an overlord of Chu.

Ding Pulang talked eloquently and ripped off Ming Yuzhen.

This man is more than eight feet tall, and his eyes are full of eyes. Once in a battle, he was shot blind in one eye. He pulled out the arrow and continued to fight.

I just don't know if he swallowed his eyeballs when he drew the arrow!

"Seeing that Ming Yuzhen is also a heroic generation, Chen Youliang devoured the master and seized power. Ming Yuzhen was dissatisfied, and was afraid that she would turn her back on Chen Youliang and stand on her own!"

Zhu Yuanzhang said slowly: "Ming Yuzhen guards Bashu. Although it may not involve Chen Youliang's energy, but without Bashu's food, Chen Youliang has many troops and horses, and it may become a burden... This is one of his weaknesses."

Zhang Ximeng paused for a while, and then said: "My lord, according to the latest news, General Tang and Liu Xueshi have already formed a team in Wuxi and other places, and the number of troops and horses has grown to 50,000. If there is no accident, they can also contain some of Chen Youliang's troops. Soldiers."

Zhang Ximeng mentioned Tang He and Liu Bowen.

At the beginning, they gathered Yang Wanzhe's Miao soldiers, and then remodeled them.

Tang He and Liu Bowen worked tirelessly, leading their soldiers to secretly go to Wuxi and other places to gather Miao soldiers and deal with Tianwan.

After this period of development, they have accumulated a considerable degree of power.

This journey has been difficult and dangerous, needless to say, but it is still a success.

Ding Pulang and Fu Youde were both shocked, "Wuxi, Wuxi's seedlings, yes, are they our men?"

Zhang Ximeng nodded, "I can't say all of them. After all, those Miao nobles are still willing to listen to Chen Youliang."

Ding Pulang opened his mouth wide and was speechless for a while.

Before the uprising, he had heard many times that the Miao soldiers had risen again. One of the Miao soldiers was very capable of fighting, and they specialized in dealing with the rich and wealthy. , is merciless, kills at every turn, and then divides the family property equally, many poor people follow actively, and the momentum grows stronger.

Some people even suggested that Ding Plang go over to suppress the bandits.

But Xu Shouhui did not agree.

This Emperor Tianwan was worthy of being a cloth seller, and he had reached the eighteenth floor of business practice, and his abacus beads were cracking and thinking.

Those Miao bosses didn't want to listen to his orders. At this time, someone was making trouble behind their backs, and these people couldn't stand it, so they came over. If I help you to suppress the bandits successfully, won't I kick me away with one kick?

So, just drag it on!

The clever Xu Shouhui gave Tang He the opportunity to take root and grow, which can be regarded as digging a hole for Chen Youliang.

Having said that, it's actually just a mange disease outside, Chen Youliang's real trouble is still inside.

"Chen Youliang joined the Red Scarf very late, and he is not a member of Peng's party. He relied on his own ability, devoured the master twice, won the throne, and became a big man another day, calling himself King of Han... Except for his subordinates, he is sincere I am afraid that there are not many people who submit to Chen Youliang. Even if he has a lot of soldiers, his heart is scattered. He can only share wealth and honor, and cannot share weal and woe. That is to say, he can only win, not lose. Once defeated, it is likely to disintegrate. A complete failure."

Zhang Ximeng pointed out Chen Youliang's three major weaknesses in turn, and everyone agreed.

Before this meeting, Ding Plang's letter had been sent out, just to win over the old man Peng Dang.

It's just that no matter how much you say, no matter how incisive your analysis is, it won't change the fact that Chen Youliang has hundreds of thousands of horses, land and water armies, and sharp soldiers.

One must be cautious when dealing with such a behemoth.

Some people once thought that Russia was just a broken house. As long as one kicked it, it would fall apart... As a result, the big man who rushed out of the house pressed his moustache to the ground and rubbed it on the ground. Prussia took it.

A down-and-out Austrian painter gave the Russians the treasures of Germany's start-up... What does it mean to cheat people without negotiation!

Similarly, there were also a group of Showa men who launched a sneak attack, and a cannon rang out from Pearl Harbor. From then on, the Showa men became extremely filial and filial eldest sons.

Although Chen Youliang is not one of those superpowers, he is not allowed to make mistakes at will.

The civil and military officers are all thinking about countermeasures.

After a long time, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly said slowly: "Chen Youliang, this thief is resolute and arrogant. If he delays it, it will be a serious problem for his confidants. Therefore, he must complete his achievements in one battle and hit Chen Youliang hard, and he will win the battle!"

Hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's words, everyone couldn't help but shuddered.

What a great courage!

The big guy was thinking about how to defeat Chen Youliang at most, but Zhu Yuanzhang thought about destroying him completely. This skill is really not something that ordinary people can compare with, let alone how could he be the king of Wu!

But Lao Zhu didn't talk nonsense. He thought about it and said, "Chen Youliang's army is unstable, and he strives to fight quickly. As long as we can force him out, keep him away from the nest, and take the initiative to attack. Chen Youliang will inevitably have flaws, and he can strike at that time. Must kill!"

Zhu Yuanzhang was full of confidence and said to his subordinates.

Now there is only one question left, how to get Chen Youliang out.

Zhu Sheng thought about it and said, "Up, can you write a letter to Chen Youliang?"

What a brilliant idea!

This is the means of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, right?

Zhu Sheng smiled and said: "Although the idea may not be very clever, but it works. This is not because Zhang Xiang is here. Please use a big pen, and a wonderful pen will produce flowers. Don't worry, Chen Youliang will not take the bait!"

Zhang Ximeng rolled his eyes, how can you still look down on me!

Relying on a letter, it is impossible to get Chen Youliang out.

But can you send something else, like a set of women's clothes?

Tell Chen Youliang that if you don't fight, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com is a woman, a tortoise... This move Zhuge Wuhou has used, and it can be regarded as the ultimate means of aggressive tactics.

But it's a pity to meet Sima Yi's elm lump that is not oily and salty.

What if Chen Youliang doesn't take the bait?

What the **** can get Chen Youliang out?

Zhang Ximeng thought about it again and again, and actually came up with an idea, "My lord, how about giving Chen Youliang a hat?"

"Hat? Wang hat?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked back.

"It's a white hat."

"A white hat?" Old Zhu was still confused, but Zhu Sheng understood and said with a smile: "Up, now Chen Youliang is the king of Han, wearing a white hat is the emperor."

Zhang Ximeng smiled and said, "Mr. Fenglin is really amazing. If Chen Youliang wants to become emperor, he has to pass our level!"

Old Zhu paused and finally nodded, "Alright then, I'll give him a white hat... If he can't catch it, naturally the virtuous will live there!"
