Chapter 127
"Report! Marshal! Twenty miles ahead, a large number of troops from the Jiangsu and Zhejiang Salt Merchant Corps have been found attacking Yingzhou City."

Zhu Yuanzhang: "How many people have they come?"

"No less than 30."

Zhu Yuanzhang took a breath: "Before the spies came to report, there were only 10 people? Why did it suddenly become 30?"

He was only silent in response.

Zhu Yuanzhang turned his horse's head and looked back at the [-] troops he had brought with him, with a hint of depression in his eyes.

Originally, according to Liu Ji's plan, he brought an army of [-] troops, and cooperated with Liu Futong inside and outside to quickly repel Zhang Shicheng's troops.The most important thing in the whole plan is to be fast!
But now, Zhang Shicheng actually poured 30 troops into a small Yingzhou city!
Brother, you are determined to be an enemy of the Jiangnan regime!
Song Lian, who was with the army, urged him to come forward immediately: "Marshal, Zhang Shicheng put 30 troops in Yingzhou, and Luzhou City (now Hefei, Anhui) must be empty. We might as well turn around and attack Luzhou City, and come out to encircle Wei and save Zhao! Let us take care of it." He, Zhang Shicheng, lost more than he gained."

Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head: "We came here this time not to seize the city, but to save Marshal Liu Futong and His Majesty. Order the whole army to form a long snake formation, set up a decisive battle posture, and beat the drums as loudly as possible." Sound. Let the defenders in Yingzhou City and Zhang Shicheng's army attacking the city hear it!"

"Marshal!" Song Lian said anxiously, "We are on a plain, without a high wall for cover, and the number is far smaller than Zhang Shicheng's army. Now that our whereabouts are exposed, it is a taboo for military strategists! If Zhang Shicheng's army turns to attack To us, our situation is very passive!"

Zhu Yuanzhang said "Yes": "I know. But since they are about to attack the city, we must reveal our identities and let Zhang Shicheng's troops know that there are enemy troops behind them. Now, this is the only way to Keep the safety of Yingzhou City. Order the whole army, prepare to fight!"

Song Lian let out a long sigh, and stared straight ahead at Zhang Shicheng's army, feeling a lot of emotion in his heart.

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

Behind Zhang Shicheng's men, a loud shout suddenly sounded.

In the large tent of the Chinese army, Zhang Shide looked at the map and frowned. If there were no accidents, Yingzhou City could be captured before dark.

A guard hurried in and knelt down in front of Zhang Shide: "General! Something is wrong! A large number of enemy troops suddenly appeared behind our army!"

"What did you say?" Zhang Shide suddenly stood up, reaching for the long knife beside him, "This is impossible, which army is it? Who is the general leading the team? How many people are there? How many are cavalry and infantry?"

The guard shook his head: "The incident happened suddenly, and we don't know which team it is. We only saw a black mass of enemy troops in the rear! They are all cavalry troops! There are about 10 people!"

"One hundred thousand cavalry..." Zhang Shide murmured to himself, "Guo Zixing is about to die. He is definitely not the Red Scarf Army. Chen Youliang is even less likely. Then among the Jiangnan Rebels, the only one who can send one hundred thousand cavalry is Zhu Yuanzhang. Come on, order the seventh, ninth and third cavalry divisions, the third, fifth, and sixth infantry divisions to follow me to attack Zhu Yuanzhang's troops!"

The Jiangsu-Zhejiang Salt Merchants Group has a full cavalry division of 2 people and an infantry division of 5 people.

Zhang Shide mobilized 19 troops in one go to meet Zhu Yuanzhang, which shows that he attaches great importance to him.

When the two armies faced each other, Zhang Shide pointed at Zhu Yuanzhang with a long knife in his hand, and shouted sharply: "Zhu Yuanzhang! I have no grudges with you in the past, and I have no grudges in the near future. I think you are a man. Now lead the troops to retreat quickly. I will forgive you." One life."

Zhu Yuanzhang sneered and said, "Zhang Shide, are you a bit too confident when you see my army arriving and you dare to divide up to meet it?"

Zhang Shide laughed loudly: "My surname is Zhu, I have more than enough soldiers to deal with you! Let me tell you, Liu Futong has already been hit by my poisonous arrow, and he won't live long! Yingzhou City will soon become my Zhang This is my family’s territory! Leave as soon as possible to avoid ending up with the entire army annihilated!”

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't speak, but just looked up to the sky and laughed. With this smile, the generals behind him also laughed.

"What are you laughing at!?" Zhang Shide was annoyed and angry.

"I laugh at you for not knowing it, not knowing it! Yingzhou City is the capital of the Jiangnan Rebels. Now you openly lead the army to attack, and you have already provoked the anger of the people. Now you want to prevent me from rescue. You who have attained the Tao You don't even understand such a simple truth, the Jiangsu and Zhejiang Salt Merchant Corps will surely be doomed today!"

"Bah!" Zhang Shide yelled, "Bullshit Ducheng, bullshit Dao! What is Dao? Strength is Dao! He Liu Futong, old and weak, incompetent, led Han Lin'er to be greedy for pleasure and not enterprising, and I, Jiangsu and Zhejiang Salt Merchants Group, replaced him. , This is the way! Zhu Yuanzhang, I advise you to think carefully about the meaning of saving Yingzhou City. Why don’t you simply join us and attack Yingzhou City together, and take the heads of Han Lin’er and Liu Futong and dedicate them to His Majesty Da Yuan. Wouldn’t it be better to be a Jiangnan king than anything else?”

Zhu Yuanzhang took a deep breath: "What did you say? Brother has something to do with the court?"

Zhang Shide looked up to the sky and laughed loudly: "Those who know the current affairs are heroes. The Great Yuan court is powerful all over the world and has a vast territory. How can we, the Han people in the south of the Yangtze River, overthrow the huge Great Yuan court? We have fought for such a long time. Isn’t it for the sake of a life of rich clothes and fine food? Now that the Dayuan court has known how powerful we are, the emperor personally promised the Menghan family that we Han people will be allowed to participate in politics in the future. Isn’t that enough?”

Zhu Yuanzhang clenched his fists and gritted his teeth: "Chang Yuchun! Get me this shameless thing!"

"Yes!" Chang Yuchun mobilized his horse and rushed straight towards Zhang Shide.

Zhang Shide also clamped the horse's belly between his legs, and grabbed his long knife to meet him.

Among Zhang's troops, the drums were beating and the morale was high.

"General Zhang is born with supernatural power. Up to now, he has never lost in single-handed battles!"

"That's right, the man on the other side dared to challenge the general one-on-one, he's courting death!"

"The general can cut off the man's head in just three moves, so that Zhu Yuanzhang will look good!"

"What three tricks! If you want me to say, it only needs one trick! How can the general raised by Zhu Yuanzhang, that poor ghost, compare with our Jiangsu and Zhejiang Salt Merchant Group? Our equipment and horses are much better than those poor ghosts! "

"die!"

In the middle of the battlefield, Zhang Shide and Chang Yuchun faced each other, with the long knife in his hand, with the sound of piercing through the air, he slashed towards Chang Yuchun's shoulder with the momentum of thunder.
