The next day, Su Cheng met Zhang Wuji, Yang Xiao, Zhu Yuanzhang and others again.
The entire lobby was filled with at least a hundred people at this time. Senior officials from the Ming Cult, senior officials from the rebel army, etc. gathered together bustlingly, but it was quite quiet. Everyone's eyes were fixed on Su in the field.
Cheng, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhang Wuji.
"Mr. Su, I never thought that Zhang Shicheng is actually one of yours. In this way, the rebels in the world are indeed one family. Fortunately, there has been no conflict between us before."
Zhu Yuanzhang was walking like a dragon and a tiger, and his words were extremely contagious. Behind him were Xu Da, Chang Yuchun, Li Wenzhong, Deng Yu, Feng Sheng and other generals.
Although these people have average martial arts skills, it is these people who are the real backbone of the rebel army.
Now that the rebel army has reached its current scale, it can be said that it has little to do with the top management of the Mingjiao. The two have long been severely separated. The reason why there has been no internal strife is simply because of the existential threat of Yuanting.
"It was just something I did casually before. I can't compare to Lord Zhu Tan, who has built such a magnificent foundation. The Mingjiao is in the situation it is today, and it is inseparable from heroes like you, Lord Zhu Tan."
Su heard Zhu Yuanzhang's fear, but he did not hesitate to praise him at all. Regardless of his different positions, a person like Zhu Yuanzhang is indeed admirable.
If it weren't for the limitations of the times, Su Cheng believed that Zhu Yuanzhang would definitely be able to do better.
Unfortunately, it is difficult for the two of them to coexist.
"Brother Su, Master Zhu Tan, you are all heroes of the world, but now we should discuss how to deal with King Ruyang's army."
Zhang Wuji noticed something was wrong in the atmosphere and interrupted the conversation between Su Cheng and the two.
Everyone present is a smart person, even Zhang Wuji. He is just simple and kind-hearted, but it does not mean he is stupid. Su Cheng quietly arranged the Taihu rebels. If he said there was no thought, no one would believe him.
Zhang Wuji didn't care about power or the emperor's throne, but the same could not be said for others. Not only Zhu Yuanzhang, but also Yang Xiao and others must have some thoughts about Su Cheng.
"I have just arrived here, and I don't understand many things yet. Master Zhu Tan has been dealing with Yuan Ting for many years, so he must have some countermeasures in mind. Why don't you explain it first so that everyone can listen?"
Su Cheng nodded to Zhang Wuji, and then looked at Zhu Yuanzhang with a more sincere attitude.
Zhu Yuanzhang is ranked high in history for his literary and martial arts skills. Even compared to Xu Da, Chang Yuchun, etc., Zhu Yuanzhang's combat and military talents are not bad. He also has Xu Da, Zhu Sheng, Li Shanchang and others under his command.
, facing the army of King Ruyang, he must have made a decision long ago.
"The 800,000-strong army under the command of King Ruyang and our rebel army must not confront each other head-on. Otherwise, even if we can win, it will definitely be a tragic victory. The Yuanting family has a great cause and can withstand several defeats, but we only need one
If we fail, we may be completely annihilated by Yuanting, so the only thing we can do now is to strengthen the walls and clear the country to defeat the enemy, turn defense into offense, and win by surprise."
Zhu Yuanzhang raised his hands to those present and spoke his decision in a deep voice.
Even if the rebel army is assembled, it will be difficult for them to gain an advantage in numbers when facing an army of 800,000 people. Although the Yuanting army lives up to the style of the Mongolian and Yuan cavalry a hundred years ago, it is not something that these rebels can resist.
There are indeed some elites among the rebels, but most of them are just a mob. They can fight with the wind. Once there is a disadvantage on the battlefield, they will probably blow up the camp directly, and the rebels will be defeated in an instant.
Su Cheng nodded and secretly thought that Zhu Yuanzhang's thoughts were similar to his. Although the two considered things from different angles, the choices were the same. They could never resist Yuanting's army head-on.
"Zhu Tanzhu is right, you can never resist Yuanting's army head-on. There is another thing that you may not know. There are actually many conflicts within Yuanting. King Ruyang cannot go south for a long time, at most one or two months.
Time will inevitably return to Dadu."
Su Cheng expressed his opinion from another aspect.
This is not the future generation, where news can spread all over the world instantly. Although the Mingjiao has spies in most places, they basically keep a dark eye on Yuanting's senior officials and internal affairs.
Zhang Wuji, Zhu Yuanzhang and others had never heard of these things Su Cheng said before, or they were just some speculations in their minds.
"Okay, since Brother Su and Master Zhu Tan have said so, the matter is settled. We will temporarily avoid the Yuan army's edge and use defense as offense."
Zhang Wuji stepped forward at the right time, which set the tone for the matter. Seeing that no one objected, he turned his attention to Su Cheng and Zhu Yuanzhang and said:
"Then there is only one question left in this matter. Who will dispatch the rebel army this time? If you have suitable people, please recommend them one by one."
Since his family knows his own affairs, Zhang Wuji's martial arts skills go without saying, but he certainly does not have the ability to command large-scale wars.
Human energy is limited, and it is impossible to master and perfect everything. The same is true for Zhu Yuanzhang. Although he led troops to fight and was a strong military commander, his own martial arts skills were average. This is normal.
People like Su Cheng who quickly learn various abilities are just special cases.
"Leader, only Master Zhu Tan can convince the brothers in this matter."
"Yes, the leader, it must be Lord Zhu Altar who can do the right thing."
…
In an instant, many people in the venue shouted Zhu Yuanzhang's name. Su Cheng didn't pay attention, but Yang Xiao and others looked a little unnatural.
After all, Zhang Wuji was the leader of the Ming Cult, but the people present seemed to only know Zhu Yuanzhang. This was obviously disregarding the face of the Ming Cult's top brass.
"Wuji, the Mingjiao army is undoubtedly the most powerful here. Naturally, only people from the Mingjiao can command this war. And you are the leader of the Mingjiao, so it is up to you."
Su Cheng had no intention of competing for command, and retreated slightly, leaving the situation to Zhang Wuji.
Looking at Zhu Yuanzhang who was silent on the side and the generals behind him, Su Cheng felt a little suspicious. The current situation must have been deliberately done by Zhu Yuanzhang to test Zhang Wuji and other high-level officials of the Ming Cult.
Rebels like Zhu Yuanzhang hold a decisive position in the Mingjiao, but the most powerful Zhu Yuanzhang at the moment is just an altar leader. In the view of the rebels like Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhang Wuji and other high-level officials of the Mingjiao are definitely not worthy of their position and should abdicate in favor of others.
Already.
"Master Zhu Tan, I will trouble you about this matter."
Zhang Wuji naturally chose Zhu Yuanzhang in the end. This was inevitable because at this moment, the generals and rebels recognized only Zhu Yuanzhang.
Yang Xiao and others were standing aside. Although their faces were gloomy, they did not say anything. Unless they wanted the Mingjiao to break up at this time, they could only suppress their dissatisfaction.
Seeing this, Su Cheng's heart moved slightly. There was such a conflict between the Mingjiao leaders and Zhu Yuanzhang, so maybe they could find some solutions.
