Xu Ziyi and his party were walking not far from Butterfly Valley when they suddenly heard loud shouts of killing in front of them. Two groups of troops were fighting. The group of heroes rode forward and passed through a forest. They saw more than a thousand Mongolian soldiers lined up on the left and right, attacking.
A cottage.
A large flag painted with red flames flew out from the stronghold, which was the flag of the Ming Cult. There were not many people in the stronghold, and they seemed to be outnumbered, but they fought hard and unyielding. The Mongolian soldiers lost their hair like rain and shouted: "Devil Cult"
The traitor, surrender quickly!"
Seeing the Ming Cult disciples fighting with the Mongolian soldiers, Yin Tianzheng and Wei Yixiao rushed out from behind without Xu Ziyi's orders. They used their martial arts to kill all the Mongolian soldiers. Naturally, they were like tigers entering a flock of sheep, wherever they went.
They all killed the Mongolian soldiers until they threw off their armor.
As for the commander of the army, seeing that the situation was not good, he wanted to flee on horseback, but he was killed by a stone thrown by Xu Ziyi from a distance.
The Yuan soldiers were leaderless, and chaos ensued.
When the people in the village saw the arrival of foreign aid, they cheered loudly. At the gate of the village, a big man in black, holding a spear in his hand, rushed out first. The Yuan soldiers were in charge of the battle, but no one dared to attack him. I saw the big man's spear flashing.
, a Yuan soldier was stabbed and knocked off his horse. All the Yuan soldiers screamed and ran away in all directions.
When Yin Tianzheng and Yin Tianzheng saw the majestic and majestic man, he was like a god, and they all praised him: "What a heroic general."
Even Xu Ziyi couldn't help but praise him when he saw this.
Under attack from both front and rear by the Mingjiao people, the Yuan army suffered between five and six hundred casualties. The rest did not dare to fight and fled in separate directions.
The big man in black laughed with his spear raised, and shouted: "Which brother came to help? Chang is grateful."
"Are you a disciple of my teaching Jumuqi?"
Seeing that the big man in black did not dismount his horse and salute Xu Ziyi, Wei Yixiao said.
"This disciple is Chang Yuchun, a disciple of my sect's giant tree. He has met my dharma king!"
Seeing Wei Yixiao with his sharp cheeks and pointed mouth, his face was gray and bloodless, and the other man's white eyebrows were as white as snow, and his expression was extremely majestic, I had vaguely recognized Wei Yixiao's origins.
"This is my teacher, Master Xu!"
Seeing how brave the big man in black was, Wei Yixiao admired him and quickly introduced Xu Ziyi to him.
Leader?
"Mingjiao disciple Chang Yuchun has met the leader!"
After hearing Wei Yixiao's explanation, Chang Yuchun quickly bowed down.
"We are all members of Mingjiao, there is no need to bow down!"
And when Xu Ziyi heard that the man in black in front of him was the most powerful general in the world in the future, he couldn't help but smile, and he lifted him up with his right hand.
It turns out that Chang Yuchun returned to the Five Elements Banner under the giant tree and Xu Ziyi took over as the leader. The reasons for this were informed by Wen Cangsong, the envoy in charge of the flag. In the past few days, he had led his brothers in the sect and waited day and night for Xu Ziyi's arrival. Unexpectedly, the Yuan army came.
came to attack. Seeing that he was outnumbered, Chang Yuchun planned to show weakness and lure the Yuan army into the stronghold and annihilate it with one blow. However, Xu Ziyi and others suddenly arrived to support him, so he took advantage of the situation to open the stronghold and fight out. He was in the Mingjiao
The position was not high, so when they saw Yin Tianzheng, Wei Yixiao and Wei Yixiao had to greet each other one by one. Even Xiao Zhao, who was next to Xu Ziyi, was not rude.
Seeing that this future pioneer general of the Ming Dynasty was not only brave, but also knew how to advance and retreat, Xu Ziyi couldn't help but look up to him.
It should be noted that this brave man who always encounters spring is simply no less powerful than Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu during the Chu-Han struggle for hegemony. As the saying goes, it is easy to get a thousand armies but it is hard to find a general. Since joining Zhu Yuanzhang's command, this pioneer general has been shouting victory songs all the way.
The battle must be won.
During the Northern Expedition, he took the lead again and defeated the encirclement and suppression by the Yuan soldiers. He was defeated without fail and even captured the generals of the Yuan army alive.
After the founding of the Ming Dynasty, Chang Yuchun was ordered to start his Northern Expedition. In less than a month, Chang Yuchun led his army to break through the Yuan army's self-concealed defense line and approached Shangdu. Emperor Yuan fled overnight when he saw that the situation was not right, and Chang Yuchun
How could Yuchun let him go so easily? He chased Emperor Yuan for dozens of miles before relenting when he saw no results.
If the master hadn't suddenly died of a sudden illness on his way back to the court, I'm afraid he might not have been able to seal himself up as a wolf.
But even so, in Xu Ziyi's opinion, this pioneering general can be regarded as the most powerful general since the Song Dynasty, and his bravery is comparable to that of the former Overlord of Chu!
Chang Yuchun invited Xu Ziyi and his entourage into the village, killed animals and sheep, drank wine and talked about the reason for leaving.
It turns out that in the past few years, floods and droughts have occurred successively in Huainan and Huaibei, and the people have been miserable. Chang Yuchun had no way to make a living, so he gathered a group of brothers to do the job of robbing homes and houses, but they were happy and happy. There was a lot of food, gold and silver in the village, so they
He went to help the poor. The Yuan army attacked him several times, but nothing could be done to him.
The group rested in the mountain stronghold for one night, and the next day they went north together with Chang Yuchun. They expected the Yuan army to suffer a new defeat, and decided not to come back again for two or three months.
Arriving outside the Butterfly Valley, the first arriving believers learned that the leader had arrived and formed a long queue to welcome him out of the valley.
At that time, the deacons of Jumu's banner had already built many huts and wooden houses in Butterfly Valley for the residence of the various religious believers attending the meeting. Peng Yingyu and others had arrived here earlier and reported that they had not found any information about the Yuan army.
.
After Xu Ziyi met with all the believers, he prepared sacrifices and ordered people to go to the tombs of Hu Qingniu and his wife and Ji Xiaofu respectively to offer sacrifices.
Xu Ziyi had been favored by Hu Qingniu and his wife as early as in Feihu Gaiden. Today, when he arrived in Yitian, he naturally had to prepare sacrifices. Ji Xiaofu was Yang Xiao's wife. Although they were not called husband and wife, they were.
The reality of husband and wife.
For the sake of Yang Xiao’s face, I couldn’t help but visit her grave when I came here!
Three days later it was August 15th. A high altar was built in the Butterfly Valley, and a blazing fire was lit in front of the altar. Xu Ziyi ascended the altar and declared that he and all the sects in the Central Plains would clear up their past mistakes and rebel against the Yuan Dynasty and the Hu. He also promulgated canons and reiterated his intention to do good deeds.
Evil, the doctrine of eradicating violence and ensuring peace.
The members of the congregation all obeyed solemnly, lighting bundles of incense in front of each person, and swore an oath to obey the orders of the leader and never dare to disobey them.
On that day, there were flames burning in front of the altar, and incense spread throughout the fields. The Ming sect was as prosperous as its predecessors. Seeing this prosperous scene, the elderly believers could not help but think of how the sect had been torn apart and almost destroyed in the past ten years or so.
Cried with joy.
In the afternoon, the subordinates reported: "Disciples Zhu Yuanzhang and Xu Da under the Flood Banner are asking for an audience."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! After hearing the reports from his followers, Xu Ziyi couldn't help but frown.
The date he had agreed to meet had passed, but Zhu Yuanzhang and his party arrived late. How could Xu Ziyi not guess what he was thinking!
Xu Ziyi was not like Zhang Wuji in character. He was kind-hearted and tolerant towards others. He never regarded himself as a leader and was superior, so he was mostly polite to his disciples.
Since the disappearance of Yang Dingtian, the Ming Cult has fallen into disintegration. The long-term absence of a leader has naturally caused many people to have other thoughts.
And this is obvious, Zhu Yuanzhang is among these people.
Seeing that Xu Ziyi frowned slightly, Leng Qian, who had traveled all the way from Guangmingding to Huaibei Butterfly Valley, ordered people to bring Zhu Yuanzhang and his party in.
After a while, Zhu Yuanzhang and Xu Da led Tang He, Deng Yu, Hua Yun, Wu Liang, and Wu Zhen to enter the hall. When they saw Xu Ziyi, Zhu Yuanzhang and his party bowed and saluted together, saying: "See the leader.
!”
Seeing that Xu Da and others were dominated by Zhu Yuanzhang, Xu Ziyi seemed to have a normal expression. He just looked at everyone for a while, and then said: "Mr. Leng, what is the punishment for overdue treatment in the teaching?"
?”
Leng Qian, who was on the side, took a step forward and said, "Forty cane penalties!"
"Zhuang Zheng, you are in charge of the Five Elements Flag, and you will supervise it this time!"
Looking at Zhuang Zheng aside, Xu Ziyi ordered calmly.
Upon hearing this, Zhuang Zheng walked out expressionlessly and said: "As ordered!"
Zhu Yuanzhang, who was kneeling on the ground, couldn't help but change his expression when he heard this, but soon returned to normal. He still lowered his head and said respectfully: "Disciple accepts the punishment!"
Then he was dragged down by two Five Elements Banner disciples, and soon the clear sound of rattan sticks being slapped on his back could be heard outside.
After a while, I heard Zhu Yuanzhang groaning in pain from outside the hall.
Zhu Yuanzhang's martial arts skills are average, and he can only be said to be proficient in fists and kicks. He can barely protect himself when used in battles, but he is not even considered a third-rate player in the world.
Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't bear the punishment, Xu Da couldn't help but boldly said: "Report to the leader, in early June, we got the order from the leader. Everyone was very happy. The brothers discussed what gifts should be prepared to celebrate the leader.
That’s why it’s too late!”
"Go on!"
Seeing that it was Xu Da who spoke, Xu Ziyi gave him a chance to speak.
It turned out that Zhu Yuanzhang and his party had an impromptu plan to go to Shandong to make a fortune. They were afraid of being recognized by the government, so they disguised themselves as mule drivers and Xu Da pretended to be the leader of the drivers.
When they arrived at Guide Prefecture in Henan Province, they picked up a few Western guests and were about to go to Heze, Shandong Province. At this moment, a group of very fierce people wielding knives and guns came and drove their guests away and asked them to leave.
Go get other people.
When they arrived at a mountain col, they discovered that the person they wanted to pull was a Shaolin monk, and they met a master of the Wudang Sect on the way.
Finally, a group of them pulled a carriage and drove the group of Shaolin monks to Wan'an Temple in Dadu. They were afraid that the group would kill and silence them, so they fled Dadu overnight.
Later, fearing that the group of people would catch up, Zhu Yuanzhang ordered them to capture seven mule and horse traders from the nearby mule and horse trade, exchanged clothes with them, and then hacked the seven people to death in the temple, with their faces
We went up and cut the flesh into a lake, so that the murderers could not recognize us. We also killed all the cart drivers who came with us, and scattered the money all over the ground, pretending to be two groups of people fighting for money and murdering each other.
Speaking of this, Xu Da obviously couldn't bear it, but the others didn't care, but regarded it as an achievement!
After hearing Xu Da's explanation, Zhou Dian, who always spoke in a confused manner, said: "You keep talking about preparing gifts for the leader, but what about the gifts?"
Seeing Zhou Dian asking questions, Xu Da and his party couldn't help but look embarrassed.
At this time, Xu Ziyi said: "Zhu Yuanzhang and the seven men have made great contributions to finding out the whereabouts of the masters of Shaolin and Wudang schools. For this, they will only be punished with twenty cane sticks, and they will be punished for their crimes in the future!"
Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang was exempted from subsequent punishment, Xu Da and others couldn't help but express surprise, and they repeatedly thanked Xu Ziyi on his behalf.

Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang and his entourage had such high prestige in the eyes of everyone else, Xu Ziyi's expression seemed to be normal, but he was faintly paying attention in his heart.
As the only rebel leader in history who could successfully conduct the Northern Expedition, Zhu Yuanzhang's personal abilities are naturally impeccable.
It's just that Zhu Yuanzhang was limited by his background, and his abilities were understandable, but his vision limited him.
After he became emperor, a series of measures could be said to have laid the foundation for the demise of the Ming Dynasty. Xu Ziyi came to Yitian with the intention of changing the outcome of the Central Plains being invaded by foreign invaders in the future.
For this reason, Zhu Yuanzhang cannot occupy the magpie's nest and have the opportunity to steal the fruits of Mingjiao!
After dealing with these trivial matters, Xu Ziyi gathered his followers again that night, lit fires and incense, and announced that all regions would join together to fight against the Yuan Dynasty. All religious groups should coordinate with each other to make the Yuan army exhausted, and naturally great things would be accomplished.
At this time, the next strategy was decided. Cult leader Xu Ziyi, Guangming Left Envoy Yang Xiao, and Green-winged Bat King Wei Yixiao took charge of the general altar and became the commander-in-chief of the whole religion. White-browed Eagle King Yin Tianzheng led the followers of Tianying to start an uprising in Jiangnan.
Xu Da, together with the men and horses from Chang Yuchun Village, Sun Deya and others raised troops in Haozhou, Huaibei.
The Budai monk said that he was not allowed to lead Han Shantong, Liu Futong, Du Zundao, Luo Wensu, Sheng Wenyu, Wang Xianzhong, Han Jiaoer and others to start a rebellion in the Yingchuan area of Henan.
Peng Yingyu led Xu Shouhui, Zou Puwang, Ming Wu and others to start an uprising in the Gan, Rao, Yuan and Xin states of Jiangxi.
Tieguan Taoist led Bu Sanwang, Meng Haima and others to start a rebellion in the Xiangchu, Jingxiang and Xiang areas.
Zhou Dian led Zhizhi Li, Zhao Junyong and others to start a rebellion in the Fengpei area of Xusu. Leng Qian joined the Western Regions believers to intercept the Mongolian reinforcements heading to the Central Plains from the Western Regions.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The Five Elements Flag is at the disposal of the General Forum. Wherever there is a tight situation, support will be provided.
As for Zhu Yuanzhang, Xu Ziyi ordered him to lead Tang He and others from China to the Persian Archbishop to ask for the Holy Fire Order of Mingjiao after his injuries healed.
Zhu Yuanzhang was very ambitious, so Xu Ziyi had to be careful and ordered him to lead a group of people to the Persian chief minister in person, just to prevent him from secretly buying people's hearts and accumulating strength.
Furthermore, he cut off one of his arms and ordered Xu Da and Chang Yuchun to lead the troops into formation and raise troops in Huaibei on their own.
Even though he has the jade pendant in hand, Xu Ziyi will not be able to stay in Yitian's world for long after all, so he must make preparations in advance.
To prevent the Ming Cult from being left one day, Zhu Yuanzhang will steal its fruits again.
Without Xu Da, the most famous general since the Song Dynasty, and Chang Yuchun, the most powerful general since the Song Dynasty, although Zhu Yuanzhang could make moves in private, it would not be as smooth as in the original work.
At this moment, everyone donated blood as an alliance and burned incense as an oath, and they would die to live up to their righteousness.
It was late in the evening, when the moon was as bright as day, and all the church members were sitting on the ground. The deacons of the main altar took out plain-filled round cakes and distributed them to everyone.
When everyone saw that the round cake looked like the moon, they said it was a "moon cake." Later generations said that the Han people made an appointment to eat moon cakes and kill the Tatars during the Mid-Autumn Festival in August, because it was the meeting of the Ximing Sect to decide the policy.
Xu Ziyi then declared: "It has been passed down from generation to generation that our religion does not tolerate meat and wine. But now that there is a famine everywhere, we can only eat whatever we can. Moreover, our first major task today is to drive out the Tatars. All brothers do not eat meat. If the spirit is not strong, it is difficult to fight. From now on, the rule of not eating meat and wine is abolished. We live in society, take major festivals as the most important, and dietary taboos are just a side matter." From then on, the mooncakes eaten by Mingjiao followers will be Some feed on pork.
In the early morning of the next day, people on the street bid farewell to Xu Ziyiji. Although everyone was a high-spirited hero, but thinking about the bloody battles in the future, who would survive and who would die, and such a big thing had happened, the heroes in the Butterfly Valley Conference today were afraid that they would not survive. Halfway through, you can’t help but feel like saying goodbye.
At that time, the holy fire was burning high in front of the Butterfly Valley, and no one knew who suddenly sang loudly: "Burn my broken body, the blazing holy fire. How happy is life, and how painful is death?"
Everyone shouted in unison: "Burn my broken body with the blazing holy fire. How can life be joyful? How can death be painful? Do good and eliminate evil, only light. Joy and sorrow all return to the dust. Have mercy on me, worldly people, there are many sorrows! Have mercy on me. The world is full of sorrows!"
The song "Have mercy on me, the world, there are many sorrows! Have pity on me, the world, there are many sorrows!", flying in the Butterfly Valley. The heroes, dressed in white as snow, walked up to Xu Ziyi one by one, bowed and saluted, walked out with their heads held high, and never looked back. .Xu Ziyi couldn't help but froze when he thought of such a good man who would spill his blood all over the Central Plains in the next ten or twenty years.
But when the songs faded away, the heroes dispersed, and the Butterfly Valley, which had been lively for several days, returned to silence, Xu Ziyi took Yin Tianzheng, Wei Yixiao, Xiao Zhao and others and set off for Dadu.
ps: Lao Zhu’s ability is beyond doubt!
But after he became emperor later, the national policies he designated were indeed a bit strange!
For example, in the late Ming Dynasty, the number of hundreds of thousands of clan members put a lot of economic pressure on the Ming Dynasty court!
So my background limited Lao Zhu’s own vision...
The policies he promulgated had both advantages and disadvantages, but many of the national policies designated by the founding of the country laid the foundation for the demise of the Ming Dynasty.
Finally, try to end the Yitian Volume as soon as possible!
