Chapter 1351 : Jinling Storm

Zhang Zishan seized many White Lotus scholars and was very happy. That night, taking advantage of the Lantern Festival to hold a celebration banquet in the Zuixian Tower. Xiao Yun was dragged over by Zhang Zishan for a few glasses of wine, and then followed a group of soldiers to guess many riddles. Everyone praised him for being able to guess one of the riddles accurately. In addition, in the battle of the White Lotus Sect, Xiao Yun killed the White Lotus Sect's disciples. Everyone in the Fang family on the field witnessed it with their own eyes. They admired him a little invisibly, and toasted and drunk.

This wine was drunk very late, but in addition to filling a bunch of bamboo leaf green wine, I heard a lot of news about Zhu Yuanzhang, the city of Jinling. Zhu Wenzheng was arrested for rebellion and Empress Ma pleaded for mercy. However, it only took a few days to spread throughout the Yangtze River. Moreover, after Zhu Yuanzhang destroyed the Chenli regime and seized Wuchang (now Wuhan, Hubei), he successively occupied Xiangyang (now Xiangfan, Hubei), Mianyang (now Mianyang, Hubei), and other key points, and controlled all the middle reaches of the Yangtze River. In order to stabilize the situation in Jianghan, he had a good relationship with Ming Yuzhen, and after receiving Ming Yuzhen's guarantee, he went to worry about Zhang Shicheng.

He first asked Song Lian to draft the "Ping Zhou Bang", and after Liu Bowen's revision, he announced the world. A month ago, Xu Da and Chang Yuchun were the head coach and deputy commander, leading an army of 200,000 to attack Zhang Shicheng.

During the battle, Zhu Yuanzhang listened to Liu Bowen's suggestion, first take the various counties and counties in Tai, cut Shicheng's wings, and then specialize in western Zhejiang. Then, Zhu Yuanzhang used the excuse of Zhang Shicheng's army invading the border and ordered Xu Da, Chang Yuchun to lead the troops to advance together on the water and land, cross the Yangtze River, and attack Huaidong.

Chang Yuchun dredged the river overnight and personally led a large army to raid Zhang Shicheng's army. He defeated Zhang Shicheng's army and arrived in Hai'an (now Hai'an, Jiangsu). After defeating Hai'an, he advanced to Taizhou New City (now north of Tai County, Jiangsu), defeating Zhang Shicheng's reinforcements and capturing his marshal Wang Cheng.

Zhang Shicheng did not expect that Zhu Yuanzhang would come so quickly and was caught off guard. However, he had seen strong winds and waves. After some adjustment, he analyzed Zhu Yuanzhang and Xu Da, Chang Yuchun's fierce troops, and decided to avoid his edge and disperse Xu Da first. Chang Yuchun's troops attacked Huaidong. With Ye Dexing and Li Bosheng, he led 400 boat troops, stationed in Fancai Port on the north bank of the Yangtze River (now west of Shazhou, Jiangsu), and also patrolled the waters near Gushan (now north of Jingjiang, Jiangsu), in an attempt to lure Xu Da to transfer his troops back to defend the Yangtze River Water Village, and then take the opportunity to counterattack.

Xu Da, Chang Yuchun was unmoved, and his army occupied Hai'an and Taizhou areas, causing Zhang Shicheng's plan to divide the troops to fail. After several days of defense, Xu Da seized the opportunity of the opponent's lack of troops and led a hundred thousand troops to attack Taizhou, capturing his defending general Yan Zaixing. The army made an opportunity to capture the county towns around Taizhou, approaching Xinghua (now Xinghua, Jiangsu) and Gaoyou (now Gaoyou, Jiangsu). The situation in Jiangnan was once tense.

Zhang Shicheng's plan to divide the troops was failed. In order to relieve the pressure in the Jiangbei area, he used a large army to launch an attack on Zhu Yuanzhang's location, Yixing (now Yixing, Jiangsu), Anji (now northeast of Anji, Jiangsu), Jiangyin (now Jiangyin), and other places.

Zhu Yuanzhang did not dare to neglect, and the whole country sent out a large army, and elite troops rushed to Yixing and personally led a unit to command in Jiangyin. After Xu Da crossed the river, he defeated Zhang Shicheng's army at the city of Yixing, captured more than 3,000 people, and returned to Jiangbei overnight to continue to attack Gaoyou. Zhang Shicheng sent Xu Yi to lead his troops to the aid, and Xu Yi led his army to Taicang (now Taicang, Jiangsu) to fear the enemy. Xu Da took the opportunity to cut off the relief and captured Taicang overnight.

After repeated failures, just over ten days ago, Zhang Shicheng personally led a large army to advance on land and land, and used the newly formed navy to march into Junshan, and used infantry and cavalry to go out to sand to attack Jiangyin.

Zhu Yuanzhang also personally led his army to help. When the army arrived in Zhenjiang (now Zhenjiang, Jiangsu), he knew that Zhang Shicheng had withdrawn, so he sent Kang Maocai to lead the navy to pursue him. He also set up a group of them in the foothills of Jiangyin Mountain. Kang Maocai led his army to chase him to Fuyumen and met Zhang Shicheng's 500 sea boats. Zhang Shicheng's army took the tide to attack Zhu Yuanzhang's army. Kang Maocai supervised the army to fight and defeated Zhang Shicheng's army. Most of his troops abandoned the boat and landed on the shore and were killed by the ambush. At this point, this battle came to an end. Zhang Shicheng lost Xinghua, Tongzhou (now Nantong, Jiangsu), Haozhou (now Fengyang, Anhui), Xuzhou (now Xuzhou, Jiangsu) and other places. Zhu Yuanzhang occupied all the Huaidong in one fell swoop, and his strength grew a lot again.

Xiao Yun was not too happy about this news. The world originally belonged to Zhu Yuanzhang. Now Zhang Shicheng is only at sunset, and the last dusk is left. The next battle in Pingjiang is one day. Zhu Wenzheng was arrested, and Xiao Yun felt a little sad. For this person who fought side by side, his former comrades-in-arms ended up like this.

I drank a lot of wine that night, and it was not until the next day that it was dawn.

"Are you awake? Why did you drink so much wine last night? I saw you get drunk?" After a while of footsteps, Fang Taiping stood up from the bed and quickly brought in a basin of washing water from outside the door?"

"You, you have never done anything to me, have you?" Xiao Yun shrank, grabbed the quilt, and looked at Fang Taiping with a grievance.

Fang Taiping saw him like this, laughed and said, "What are you talking about?" As he said that, his face turned slightly red and his expression became distorted.

Xiao Yun said: "Who took off my clothes?"

Fang Taiping turned red, turned his face and gave him a blank look, and said, "What, I personally serve you, may I be wrong?"

"Ah, you took it off? Wouldn't you be seen all over? No, I will have to look at your body in the future, otherwise I will suffer a huge loss?" Xiao Yun said seriously with a thick face.

"You are not ashamed to speak. You can say such words too?" Fang Taiping glared at him fiercely, his face flushed with shame.

Xiao Yun shrank his neck and muttered, "If you don't look at it, don't you look at it. Is there too few people to see it?"

"What did you say?" Fang Taiping said coldly with a stern face.

"Ah, nothing, nothing, I mean, why are you the only one, Sister Su, Sister Yue'er?" Xiao Yun didn't dare to get involved in this issue anymore, and just quickly changed the topic.

"They have prepared breakfast for you. I'm afraid they're staring at you in the lobby now?" Fang Taiping walked over and handed over a handful of washed wet towels: "Wipe your face?"
