After Xia Xun and Ming'er said goodbye to Xu Qianhu, they first returned to Xiangshan County, and then rushed back, they also rushed to a ferry, crossed the river from the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, arrived at the north bank of the Yangtze River, and then traced the river up to the camp of King Yan.
The road back is not easy, all the cars and ships they encountered are because of the war down the river to escape the war, the local people have also heard the news, no one is willing to rent a car and ship to take them back to the west, although now the Ming treasure money because of the war depreciation, fortunately Xia Xun has plenty of money, so he took out all the money, so to say, finally bought a donkey cart, with a car to travel, the speed is faster, Xia Xun made a cameo appearance, carrying Ming'er back.
At this time, Chen Xuan had received the holy decree and rushed to the naval camp overnight to take charge of military affairs.
Previously, Sheng Yong fought two more battles with the Northern Army in Puzikou, the first round Sheng Yong won a small victory, but the second round was a big defeat, and he had no choice but to lead the remnants of the defeated army across the river, and set up camp on the south bank of the Yangtze River to fortify, and the key task of preventing the Northern Army from going south was handed over to the imperial court sailors.
But before, Chen Xuan was implicated because he was very closely involved with Xu Zengshou, and now it is reactivated, the emperor actually did not add him an official and a half knight or a reward to buy people's hearts, it seems that the corruption in this emperor is not light, so many generals surrendered without a fight, but it still can't make him sober up, let him know that no matter what he does, the courtiers will be loyal to him without complaint.
After Chen Xuan stood aside, he had nothing to do at home, the only place to go was Xu Zengshou, after Xu Zengshou died inexplicably, Chen Xuan didn't go anywhere, he became more reticent, and only sat and drank at home, until the holy decree was issued, and then he went to Xu Zengshou's tomb to worship and sweep it, and rushed to the water master.
The officers and soldiers of the Navy Division are all his old department, I heard that the Governor Chen Du was reinstated and returned to the Water Division, the cronies and generals under his command were very excited, and they were all dressed up and waiting in Yuanmen early, as soon as Chen Xuan arrived, all the generals came forward to meet him, Chen Xuan nodded with a calm face, and his cronies Jiang Ming smiled and said: "The Metropolitan Governor, I heard that the Metropolitan Governor is back, I am very happy, we have set up a banquet for the Metropolitan Governor."
"Pull down" Chen Xuan said with a calm face: "At present, the enemy is still idle to drink and immediately raise the account and discuss military aircraft."
Jiang Ming was stunned, and when he saw that the governor's face was gloomy, he didn't dare to disobey, so he hurriedly agreed, ordered people to withdraw the banquet, and beat the drum of the generals.
The drums rumbled, echoing over the naval camp, announcing the return of Governor Chen Xuan.
On the north bank of the river, Zhu Di was very anxious, he was searching for ships everywhere, and if he wanted to cross the river, he must have a big ship, but the imperial court had already burned all the warships and civilian ships in Jiangbei, and where to get a boat for a while, once it was delayed for a long time, this golden opportunity had to be given up, and he had to be forced to return to Beiping.
Zhu Di was frowning about the ship, and Ji Gang rushed into the big tent with an arrow, and said with a smile: "Your Highness, Yang Xu is back."
"What" Zhu Di got up with great joy, he valued Xia Xun very much, Xia Xun was chased and killed in Jiangbei, he didn't know it now, he always thought that Xia Xun was still hidden under Cimu Mountain, and now he had arrived on the north bank of the Yangtze River, Xia Xun still didn't come to see, he thought it was the reason why he couldn't enter and exit the blockade along the river, and he heard that Xia Xun arrived at this time, and he was naturally overjoyed.
Zhu Di said: "Please" He hurriedly greeted him, and Ji Gang hurriedly followed behind.
The army came and went, people and horses went back and forth, some people were training, some people were consolidating the camp defense, and some people were hurriedly building big ships, tinkling everywhere, and they were busy.
Seeing Xia Xun's figure coming from afar, Zhu Di showed a smile on his face, he stood still, looked at Xia Xun with a smile, and then, his smile was frozen on his face, he saw Xia Xun There was a girl walking beside him, when he saw the girl's face clearly, his consciousness suddenly became a little trance, he seemed to have escaped from this battlefield with war clouds, and returned to the era of his seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy, yes, that year, he was seventeen years old, she was fifteen years old, the first time he saw her, he was fascinated by this fifteen-year-old charming girl, and since then the two have lived in tandemto this day.
Zhu Di blinked, the girl walking beside Xia Xun was vaguely similar to Concubine Xu at that time, it was really too similar "Your Highness" Xia Xun arrived in front of him and called twice in a row, Zhu Di looked at Ming'er with straight eyes, and he hadn't come back to his senses yet.
This is not to blame him, when I saw my sister-in-law last time, Ming'er was still a nine-year-old little naughty child, and the girl was eighteen years old, and when I saw her again, she was already a handsome and lovely girl, how dare he come forward to admit his relatives recklessly.
Zhu Di pointed at Ming'er and said with some hesitation: "Yang Xu, this girl of hers is" "Big brother-in-law, don't you recognize me?"
In addition to Zhu Di being older, his appearance is not much different from a few years ago, and Xia Xun has been called out, and Ming'er doesn't know which one he is.
Ming'er screamed happily, ran to his side, and subconsciously wanted to hug his arm, but before she could touch his sleeve, Ming'er realized that she had grown up, she glanced at Xia Xun quickly, withdrew her hand, and saluted Zhu Diying.
"Ah, Miao Jin Ming'er, it's you, haha, it's really you" Zhu Di was surprised and delighted, looked her up and down, and exclaimed: "It's only been a few years, that yellow-haired girl is actually, oops, at that time, you were still like a little bean dinger, and you were as tall as your brother-in-law's waist, and you grew so big in the blink of an eye."
Ming'er gave him a big white eye, and said coquettishly: "Who is so small, say bad things about me, I'll tell my sister" Calling herself a child in front of her sweetheart, of course she didn't want to.
After saying this, Ming'er glanced at Xia Xun quickly, and said in her heart: "He saw me at that time, no wonder I talked to him so seriously, but he sent me away as a child, did he always treat me as a child?"
Ming'er subconsciously straightened her chest.
"The only thing to worry about now is the warship."
Zhu Di returned to the tent with them, briefly described the situation after each other's departure, and immediately talked about the most difficult problem at the moment, Zhu Di locked his eyebrows and said: "Mei Yin is stationed in Huai'an, according to the soldiers, according to me, Mei Yin is also indecisive, I don't know whether I should take refuge in this king at this time, but if it is difficult for me to cross the river on the north bank of the Yangtze River, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not change his mind and wave his army to fight."
There is also Fengyang, the capital of the capital, there are also 60,000 permanent garrisons, this army is now also standing still, watching the line, once the king shows defeat or hesitates, they will also take the opportunity to send troops, but this ship is really difficult to find, the general boat not to say that it can not transport the troops across the river as soon as possible, and it cannot compete with the imperial court sailors, at present, the imperial court sailors are nearly 80,000 troops, and the governor Chen Xuan is a veteran of the sailors, and he is very popular with the sailors and soldiers, and the military heart is strict and should not be underestimated. ” "Chen Xuan" Xia Xun's expression moved, and he said: "The minister knows this Chen Xuan, because he has a close relationship with the governor of Xu, and he has also been implicated, he has been deprived of his military position, and he is at home at leisure, and the court has reinstated him?"
"Not bad" Xia Xun thought for a while and said, "Your Highness, is it possible for us to recruit Chen Xuan?"
Along the way, there are a lot of generals, Xia Xun asked, Zhu Di's heart moved, stared at Xia Xun intently, and asked nervously: "Is this possible?"
Xia Xun said: "The minister thinks that he should not take precautions."
Chen Dudu was unfair to the imperial court, and he has a good relationship with Xu Dadudu, the imperial court is now rumoring that Xu Dadu died in our hands, and now the county lord is in our account, she is Xu Dadudu's sister-in-law, and she is the party.
If His Royal Highness writes a letter to recruit Chen Dudu, and then attaches a handwritten letter from the little county lord to explain the truth about Xu Dudu's killing, Chen Dudu may not be willing to work for the imperial court again."
"It's worth a try, if it can be successful, this king can not only get a naval army, but more importantly, this Yangtze River moat will no longer be a problem, and the boats that cross the river can be had."
Zhu Di happily took the case In the camp of the Southern Army's Naval Division, Chen Xuan, who was reorganizing the army and preparing for battle at night, suddenly ushered in a mysterious guest.
After being briefed by the soldiers, the guest was introduced into his Chinese army tent, and no one knew who this person was, let alone what he said to Chen Xuan, and after an hour, the guest left.
Chen Xuan spent an afternoon alone in the tent and saw no one.
That night, Chen Dudu's Chinese army tent was brightly lit, and the people who were ordered to meet were Chen Xuan's old subordinates for many years.
For three days, more and more generals participated in the meeting, and they were the main generals of each warship.
In the past four years, the generals have been oppressed, and the power and position of the rivers and rivers have been said, and now the king of Yan is arrogant, and the generals have long had two meanings, their old boss for many years said that he wanted to vote for the king of Yan, where are the generals still have the determination to fight to the death Chen Xuan Although he was careful and passed on in batches to find out the intentions of the generals, but he tried all the way, and almost did not encounter a resolute opponent, and the generals who swore to fight to the death.
Chen Xuan sighed secretly, and said in his heart: "It's not that the generals are afraid of war and death, looking at this situation, it is really the hearts of the court that have been lost."
This strengthened Chen Xuan's determination, he sat behind the handsome case, and said in a deep voice: "There is no way in the court, to this day, His Royal Highness the King of Yan is also the blood of the first emperor, I wait to take refuge in the King of Yan, why not, this governor can have today, all rely on the Governor of Xu Dadu, I have here the handwritten letter of the small county lord of the Zhongshan Palace, the Governor of Xu Dadu died tragically under the emperor's sword, with the imperial court where the palace is located, he actually made this three indiscriminate means, planting dirt with the King of Yan."
Where is there still a little bit of the appearance of the imperial court in this imperial court In public and private, for the surname of my three army soldiers, for the future of my military generals and ministers, in order to avenge the revenge of a sword for the governor of Xu Dadu, the governor decided, Ming said to return to the king of Yan, you robes and I have been friends for many years, if there are those who do not want to go, the governor will not force it.
People have their own aspirations, and those who don't want to follow this governor to join the king of Yan can stand up now, and this governor can guarantee your safety.
Sun Xuan glanced around, and the generals under the tent were motionless.

"Good" Chen Xuan Huoran stood up, pulled out an arrow, folded his hands, and folded the arrow in half with a "click", and said sharply: "Then you and my brother, Ming said that we will change flags together, and this governor will say it in his head today, there are those who disobey their hearts and repent, there are such arrows" "The Last Will Do Duty" The generals responded suddenly, Chen Xuan's tense face eased, and he said with a smile: "Everyone sit down, King Yan has always treated heroes well, I will wait for the righteousness and surrender to King Yan, His Royal Highness will definitely not treat everyone badly." ” The deputy general Jiang Ming thought for a while and hesitated: "Du Du, our brothers are all soldiers brought out by Du Dudu, Du Du is to the left, and our brothers naturally will not go to the right."
However, the younger brother heard that the county lord of Qingcheng had gone to the northern military camp to negotiate peace, and the emperor was willing to divide the river and rule, cut half of the country and the king of Yan, and the king of Yan did not allow it, as long as he killed three annihilations.
Now we have taken refuge in King Yan, once the Jing difficulty is over, King Yan returns to Beiping, what should we do brothers, we are sailors, other soldiers can follow His Royal Highness King Yan, if we go to Beiping, there is no place for us" Chen Xuan glanced at him, snorted and said: "The fool King Yan has torn his face with the emperor, and when the soldiers come to the city and kill Fang Huang, King Yan will stop there, and return to Beiping Even if King Yan is willing, many soldiers who follow King Yan and are willing to fight on the bloody battlefield are willing to say that once King Yan crosses the river and takes Jinling, whether he will be the emperor or not is not something that anyone can decide, but the will of God."
The world is not the world of one person, it is the world of the world, the emperor has no way, and the one who has the Tao has replaced the heavens, and the country has no two masters, this world, it is time to change hands" "Oh, hehe, the last general understands" Jiang Ming touched the back of his head and nodded with a smile.
Is he really so stupid, how can such a stupid person pretend to be stupid for Chen Xuan's henchman Jiang Ming, but he just asked what they wanted to ask for some people who didn't think clearly.
Tell these people that what they want to vote for is not the Yan King of Beiping, but the future co-owner of the world, this is the work of the dragon, and don't half-heartedly suffer from gains and losses All the generals really cheered up: "Yes, there is no other heaven and no two lords, the light of King Yan is so blazing that it has completely covered the emperor's brilliance, this world, it is time to change hands" The next day.
"Look, look, that's my Ming sailor fleet" Sheng Yong's army, which was deployed along the river, suddenly saw a large number of ships coming down the river from the upper reaches, flying flags and flags, and the golden drums shook greatly.
"Hey, look at this big ship, this is our sailor, with such a sailor, no matter how powerful the Yan army is, it won't be able to cross the Yangtze River."
"That is, don't say 150,000 soldiers and horses, even if he has an army of one million, they are all roe deer from the north, do you want to cross the river enough to fill the river?"
The soldiers pointed fingers and talked a lot, which was a thing to boost the morale of the army, so no one paid attention to them.
Countless warships sailed over, across the entire river, and then turned to the north bank at the same time, and the soldiers on the south bank watched with bated breath: "The sailor is going to attack the Yan army, but the Yan army has not crossed the river yet, no matter how powerful the sailor is, it is impossible to go ashore to fight."
On the largest battleship in the middle, Chen Xuan was wearing battle armor and scarlet on his back, standing on the bridge with his sword, and with an order, the Ming flags on each battleship fell in unison, and then the Yanzi flag was raised.
The officers and men on the south bank were dumbfounded, and they watched as countless ships and ships sailed to the north shore one by one, and all of them were stupid: "The sailors have surrendered to the enemy."
The red over there has just risen to a pole high, and the red sunlight is sprinkled with golden snakes dancing wildly, and it is red.
A thought involuntarily floated in the hearts of the soldiers on the south bank: "King Yan is going to cross the river, and no one can stop him anymore."
Far West.
Claviyo stood on the top of the mountain, looking at the camp tents under the mountain, one after another, from the edge of the sky to the edge of the sky, endless, countless herds of war horses, floating in front of the tents in front of the sky, like a fortress of steel, motionless.
Sir Claviyo held down the thin sword at his waist in amazement, he was a skilled fencer, but he did not even dare to let his sword touch the brass ring of his boots in the face of such a magnificent spectacle.
Samarkand, the kingdom of Timur the Great, is so magnificent that the capital of its own monarch is a joke compared to it.
At this time, he saw several knights coming from afar towards the great tent of Timur Khan, and he hurried down the hill towards it.
He was an envoy sent by His Majesty Castille of the Kingdom of Spain to meet Timur the Great, who had long heard that Timur the Great was invincible and had the most feared army in the world, but it was only here, seeing it with his own eyes, that he believed the rumors were true.
"Perhaps this emperor can conquer everything their horses can run to if he wants to, and his mighty army can run wherever their horses can run."
Claviyo thought in amazement as he walked into the Emperor's tent.
The arrangement of the tent is very prosperous, and the huge tent is full of jewels, and it seems that all the treasures of the world have been concentrated here.
Timur the Great, the chilling cripple, was limping.
He listened very seriously to the news from his courtiers, and his eyes were blazing.
Claviyo had been here for several days, and everyone was familiar with him, so he didn't dare to say more, so he hurriedly stood aside and observed the people.
Those few people are in the dust, looking at their outfits, they should have come from a far, far away, but they are in good spirits, Claviyo knows very well, the warriors of Timur the Great, as long as they stand in front of their great monarch, even if they are about to die after the blood is shed, they will be so energetic, their emperor is tantamount to the undefeated god of war in the eyes of all his warriors, yes, he is a god-like existence.
The person who was reporting the news to Timur the Great respectfully touched his chest with his hand, and after saluting the Great Khan, he immediately reported: "On the orders of the Great Khan, we have infiltrated the Ming Kingdom and have collected as much information as we can on them.
The great empire in the East, the great founding monarch Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang, has passed away."
"Zhu Yuanzhang has passed away, the Zhu Yuanzhang who drove the emperor of the Great Yuan Empire and his subjects out of the Central Plains like a dog is dead" Timur was shocked, and the person who reported the news said respectfully: "Yes, the Great Khan, the one who now rules the Ming kingdom is his grandson, a young man in his early twenties. ” "Oh it's a pity, it's a pity, in the past few years, I've been busy conquering Eastern Chagatai, Western Chahatai, Golden Horde, Khorezm, Persian I'er, Turkey, Delhi Sultan and North India, and I haven't been freeing my hands, I originally wanted to make this emperor who founded the Eastern Empire my last opponent" Old Timur sighed regretfully, and then raised his head again: "Okay, tell me about the current situation of this empire. ” "Yes, Great Khan, the extent of this country is impossible for the minister to know, but judging from the dense population of the places through which the minister passed, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the largest country in the world.
Their emperor had about 1.5 million standing troops, and when they went to war, they would leave about 1 million troops to guard their vast territory, and about 500,000 troops would be mobilized to fight.
There, every city, they have strong and tall walls, and around them there are rivers around them."
Obviously, the spies of old Timur had gone deep into the territory of the Ming Dynasty and did some investigation, and in the end, he said: "When the minister came back, in the north of the Ming Empire, there was a vassal king who was rebelling, but compared to the behemoth of the Ming Empire, the vassal king was weak and pitiful, he was like a rabbit at the feet of a lion.
I think he should have been crushed by the iron cavalry of the Ming Empire by now.
All in all, this is a unified and very powerful state, and the Great Khan, with all the disrespectful words of the ministers, thinks that of all the opponents of the Great Khan, the Ming Kingdom will be your most difficult enemy to conquer."
Old Timur's eyes shone brightly, like an old lion, in pursuit of the glory of the final battle, and his face was flushed with excitement, so that the age spots on his face became more prominent: "Then I will go there, I will conquer there, and I will prove that I am the strongest in the world."
Remember what I said, although the world is big, it can't accommodate two monarchs, and the one who can stay can only be me."
Old Timur waved his arms and shouted excitedly, and he walked away with his lame legs, and sat down on the soft Persian carpet, and a charming blonde Persian girl with a white veil on her face, showing her bewitching little waist and navel, immediately fell to her knees before him and gently pounded her legs for him.
Old Timur shouted: "Ulaanba said, Ulaanba said" A man walked in from outside the tent, touched his chest with his hand, and said respectfully: "My Great Khan" This Ulan Ba said that he was the second brother of Xi Yuba who wanted to use explosives to kill the Yan Wang's family in Beiping City, and after thousands of miles, he finally found the hero he admired and threw himself into the king's account.
Old Timur said excitedly: "Listen, you go at once, find out for me the fastest shortcut to Daming, and then go to Daming, get me more detailed information about them, oh, it's better to have a map, it's too far away, I don't want to take my army to the wrong road." ” When he saw Claviyo standing aside, he suddenly had an idea, and said excitedly: "By the way, I can give you the identity of an envoy, and you will go to meet the emperor of the Ming Kingdom in my name, so that you can learn the most detailed and useful information." ” Old Timur leaned over and lay down on the soft camel hair blanket and muttered: "When I get rid of the Ottoman Empire and get back that idiot from Baiya, I'll go, I'll go to the East, conquer my last opponent waiting for me, Old Timur, will come" To be continued:
