Flying holes, a severe cold that is rare in a century. In this climate, ordinary people hide in their rooms. {Please read first}

In a room where there was still a lot of firewood, the firewood was burning in a bright spot. She sat alone next to the firewood, rubbing her hands while looking at the weather outside.

He has a lot of thoughts, and over the past year, he has done a lot of things.

What made him most proud was that he changed his name. Zhu Chongba, a somewhat vulgar name, was changed to Zhu Yuanzhang, and he wanted to be a powerful tool to pierce the Yuan Dynasty!

However, reality always has a big difference from ideals. He originally worked under Guo Zixing and married Ma Xiuying as his wife. He thought that he was very satisfied with assisting Guo Zixing wholeheartedly. However, Guo Zixing's petty, selfish, narrow-minded, and short-sighted eyes were all seen in his eyes.

There is no development with Guo Zixing.

So Zhu Yuanzhang asked for an order to go to his hometown to recruit soldiers, gathered a group of confidants, and formed a team of thousands of people.

Then, he surrendered 3,000 militiamen from Zhangjiabao and 800 people with a nose and a nose. With this team, he marched eastward. His primary goal was the Yuan army in Hengjian Mountain, Dingyuan. This army participated in the battle to siege Haozhou. When the imperial army advanced to Gaoyou, they withdrew their troops.

After defeating this army, Zhu Yuanzhang selected 20,000 strong Han people from the surrendered army and organized them into his own team. Now, his team has another 30,000.

The tenth year of Zhizheng has arrived. He knew that once he took the first step, he would not stop. He should attack a more challenging target below.

Chuzhou.

There are mountains surrounding Chu. The terrain is dangerous and easy to defend but difficult to attack. However, he must take this place, attack by advancing and defend by retreating, so that he can have more room for his chest.

What he did was very accomplished, but compared with the guy named Chen Feng on the east side, he was a witch.

This Chen Feng has occupied big cities such as Yangzhou and Gaoyou. Just the salt industry can give him sufficient military salary.

Unlike myself, if I want to keep getting food and pay, I have to keep fighting.

Now, although the world is in the world, there is still a long way to go to build a Han country.

"Wars everywhere every day, when will this end?" Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but sigh. After saying this, a young and mature face seemed to sigh.

"In the Qin Dynasty, Han Dynasty was a commoner, open-minded and generous, knew people well and did not kill people, and became emperor for five years. Now that the Yuan Dynasty was in chaos, the world collapsed, and what it did was to do, the world was not stable."

This words rang in Zhu Yuanzhang's ears, and he was extremely surprised and looked at the person who was writing documents on the table.

His name is Li Shanchang, and he defected to him half a month ago. Because his writing is beautiful, Zhu Yuanzhang asked him to be a clerk, which was specially used for writing.

But what he said just now completely touched Zhu Yuanzhang.

In the late Qin Dynasty, the world was in chaos, and Emperor Gaozu of Han, Liu Bang, was just a commoner. Moreover, it was said that civilians were considered to be arrogant and he was just a gangster. However, he was open-minded and generous, knew people well and did not kill people indiscriminately, and achieved the imperial career in just five years. Now, the rules and regulations of the Yuan Dynasty have been broken and the world has collapsed. If Liu Bang was used as an example, why worry about the uncertainty of the world?

Liu Bang only took five years, but can the current Tartars last for five years?

Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly realized his vision.

Before this, he had been thinking about how to fight the Tartars. He had not considered more things, but now, a higher goal has come to his mind. He revolted and fought so hard for one thing: he wanted to take the supreme position! Like Liu Bang, he was wearing a dragon robe!

"Li Wenshu, what you said made me suddenly enlightened." Zhu Yuanzhang said: "Now, please accept my worship."

In terms of age, Li Shanchang was older than Zhu Yuanzhang, but in terms of identity, Li Shanchang was much lower than Zhu Yuanzhang. After all, Zhu Yuanzhang is now a general with tens of thousands of people.

"Young Master Zhu, you can't do it, you can't do it." Li Shanchang said, holding Zhu Yuanzhang who was bowing his hand.

Zhu Yuanzhang still bowed to Li Shanchang.

"Brother Li, now there are uprisings around us. General Liu and General Xu are all larger than ours." Zhu Yuanzhang pulled Li Shanchang and sat in front of the fire and said to Li Shanchang: "If we want to develop quickly, we may face many problems."

With a goal, you must also have the means to achieve the goal, so that you can do it.

After hearing what Li Shanchang said, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but think of the current situation. He wanted to develop, and he was under great pressure.

If he just overthrew the Tartars, then he would just fight, but if he wanted to finally get to the supreme position, there was still a lot he needed to do.

"Now, our situation is that the Yuan army is in the north, the Chen Feng army is in the east, and the Xu Shouhui army is in the west. Therefore, if we want to develop, we should develop into an empty area." Li Shanchang said.

This is the situation around. If you want to fight the Tartars, it is best to go north, join Liu Futong's troops, and fight to the capital. This is also Zhu Yuanzhang's idea.

"Then should we march north?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked. Now, the Red Turban Army led by Liu Futong is the main force in the fight against the Tartars.

Li Shanchang shook his head: "If we had an army of 200,000, we might be able to advance north, but now we have few people, and we are short of weapons, food and salary, and there are very few strong cities in our hands. When we move north, we can only make wedding clothes for others."

At that time, Liu Bang and Xiang Yu jointly wiped out the tyrannical Qin, but in the end, the only one who won the world was only one person, so Xiang Yu committed suicide by slashing his throat in Wujiang.

Just simply fighting the Tartars, then it should go north to support Liu Futong. However, if there is a more lofty goal, then it should be considered in a comprehensive way.

There is no record of the current dialogue in any historical book, but in fact, judging from Zhu Yuanzhang's goal of advancing, he had some intentions.

Although any historical book says that Zhu Chongba had to uprising and resist the Yuan Dynasty because of the Tartars. In fact, it was Liu Futong who really fought with the Mongolians. Zhu Chongba was fighting with Chen Youliang and Zhang Shicheng for most of the uprising.

Whoever is the thickest and darkest can laugh to the end.

At this time, Li Shanchang had already entered the core of Zhu Yuanzhang. What he said coincided with what Zhu Yuanzhang thought.

"We are weak, so the most urgent thing now should be to develop our strength. Therefore, our current march is very suitable. If we take Chuzhou, we will have a place to settle down. More importantly, Chuzhou will face south and cross the Yangtze River, it will be Jiqing Road." Li Shanchang said, with longing in his eyes.

Jiqing Road!

In the first year of Jianyan of Emperor Gaozong of the Southern Song Dynasty, Jiangning Prefecture was changed to Jiankang Prefecture. In the eighth year of Shaoxing, the Southern Song Dynasty officially established the capital of Lin'an Prefecture and Jiankang Prefecture was the accompanying capital.

After the Mongols marched south and occupied Jiankang, they established the Xuanfu Department of Jiankang Prefecture. In the 14th year of Zhiyuan, they were promoted to Jiankang Road and renamed Jiqing Road in the second year of Tianli.

In later generations, this city was called Nanjing.

Jiqing City is a big city close to the south bank of the Yangtze River. It is easy to defend but difficult to attack, with a large population, and there are countless fertile lands around it. If you get Jiqing Road, soldiers and food will not be a problem.

Moreover, the Tartars' forces in the south have always been relatively weak.

Now, there is no large-scale uprising in the south. If you occupy the south, then you can first cover the southern country in your own hands, then you can develop southward.

In this way, you can jump up and become the biggest force.

"The Jiangnan has been prosperous since ancient times. As long as we occupy the land of the Jiangnan region, our strength will be completely strengthened." Li Shanchang said.

As for the Tatars in the north, they will let them fight first. When the strength of both sides is almost exhausted, they can be replaced.

After all, if you want to take up the supreme position, you must stand above righteousness. Now Zhu Yuanzhang is still a subordinate of Xiao Mingwang. The best ending is to let Xiao Mingwang disappear by himself.

"Brother Li, I hope you can assist me and achieve hegemony together!" Zhu Yuanzhang said.

"Young Master Zhu, what I worry most now is Chen Feng's army to the east." Li Shanchang said.

Chen Feng on the east side?

"This person was originally a member of the Tartar court." Li Shanchang said: "However, because the Tartar emperor was debauchery, especially when he demoted Tuotuo's Grand Tuo in the last battle, this person was completely disappointed with the court, and he raised the anti-flagration."

Chen Feng was originally a man from the Tartar court, which means he was different from the Red Turban Army where the poor peasants revolted.

"Also, this man used his troops to become a god. Tuotuo's millions of troops did not take down the Gaoyou Mansion. It is said that this man took down the Gaoyou Mansion with only 1,500 cavalrymen, and conquered Xinghua and Taizhou. If this man surrendered to the Tartars in the future, or still rebelled, it would probably be our trouble."

At that time, Haozhou City was relieved because the Tartars recruited troops to fight Gaoyou. Chen Feng was indeed a god in his military use. It was difficult to deal with such a neighbor.

Because, the Chuzhou they were about to fight was in the west of Yangzhou Road.

"However, I heard that Chen Feng is a disciple of Peng Yingyu, the subordinate general of Xu Shouhui." Zhu Yuanzhang thought for a while and said, "I wonder what his views Brother Li has?"

"I dare not think about it." Li Shanchang said: "Since he is Peng Yingyu's disciple, it is half of our Red Turban Army. We can send people to make friends and share their preferences. At the same time, we quickly rushed south and took these lands into our hands before he even took advantage of the land in Jiangnan."
