Chapter 475 : A Day in the Mountains
"Yes, yes? Brother Han said, Brother Xiao is not that kind of person?" Many people echoed.
"By the way, Brother Xiao, tell me, where have you been in the past two months? Do you know, many big things have happened to these two?" Han Ming said respectfully to Xiao Yun.
Xiao Yun really doesn't want to say more about where he has been in the past two months. If he had been with the little princess in a small village in Hangzhou for two months, he would be afraid of contempt from these brothers. Since he couldn't explain, he would simply not explain. He made up his mind. Xiao Yun sighed and said, "Where can you go? Brother Xiao was discovered by Zhang Shicheng, the dog thief, and was besieged by the army. He was seriously injured and jumped into the Grand Canal. He was washed to Hangzhou by the water of the canal. Fortunately, he was rescued by a kind-hearted couple and cultivated for two months!"
"Ah... there is something like this. Brother Xiao, your injuries are getting better...?" Many people in the crowd came over to ask with concern.
Xiao Yun was moved and said to himself: "I can't see that these bastards still care about me. If you have the chance, you have to help them find a way out and join Zhu Yuanzhang. Otherwise, you will have to die after following the Tartars!"
"By the way, you haven't told me yet, why do you want this old man to prepare so many boats?"
After hearing Xiao Yun’s question, several people who were already a little festive, their faces immediately darkened. Han Ming sighed and said, “Brother Xiao hides in the deep mountains and does not know the changes in the world. Fortunately, God has eyes, so I let you see me. I will tell you!”
Xiao Yun raised his eyebrows and said to himself: "A big thing can there be something bigger than Tuotuo's death unjustly. In the battle of Gaoyou, Zhang Shicheng won with less?"
Han Ming looked gloomy and said for a long time: "Brother Xiao, can you tell that the Prime Minister was killed by a villain, and the millions of troops of the court were destroyed by Zhang Shicheng?"
"What? The Prime Minister died, and the millions of troops were destroyed by Zhang Shicheng? What's going on?" Xiao Yun was shocked. In fact, he had already investigated these two major events clearly in Xu Dachuan early in the morning. However, when everyone looked at their faces, they all wanted to die. As long as they were not blind, they could see that they were very frustrated by such an ending, and he had to show it with all their strength.
Han Ming sighed and said, "Not bad! Since Brother Xiao disappeared, the Prime Minister once sent someone to find Brother Xiao for a while, but later he couldn't find it, so he had to give up. Not long after, the Prime Minister began to attack the city. The three armies were dispatched. In less than a month, Zhang Shicheng was forced to retreat to his nest. He was about to run out of ammunition and food, but it was a pity...?"
Xiao Yun didn't expect that after Tuotuo disappeared, he actually sent a large army to find him. He was immediately moved again. Thinking of his tragic death, he became sad for a moment.
Han Ming didn't know that Xiao Yun had already known the defeated army of the court. Seeing that he didn't say anything, he stood up and told Tuotuo how he received the order of the Tartar Emperor, how he was framed, and how the army was destroyed by Zhang Shicheng. However, after all, it came out of the battlefield, and what he said was not just the exaggeration that Xu Dachuan came from the storyteller.
Finally, Han Ming sighed and said, "The million-dollar army was first rushed by Zhang Shicheng, and then Zhang Shicheng's younger brother mingled into the inside of the army. A fire was set in the rear. The million-dollar army was burned. Taibuhua's army immediately ordered the army to return to put out the fire. Unexpectedly, Zhang Shicheng took this opportunity to personally lead the elite troops of the 3,000 Zhou to kill one of the horses. Because he didn't know that Zhang Shicheng was coming too fast, the army had time to prepare, and Zhang Shicheng took the opportunity to kill many generals, which made the army unstable. Many generals with ulterior motives took the opportunity to pull away a lot of people. The situation carefully laid out by the Prime Minister became a mess and self-defeating. After Taibuhua and General Alu escaped, the army fell into a situation where there was no leader. Many people surrendered to Zhang Shicheng, and many people simply surrendered to the Red Turban Army!"
"Brothers rely on the night to escape back to Dadu one after another. Lord Taibuhua, Lord Alu was seriously injured, and only two Lord Dong Chuanxiao were injured. We thought that since we were defeated, we would be defeated. Anyway, this is not our fault. I don't expect that General Alu and Lord Taibuhua were so despicable that they put the blame for this defeat on the soldiers. It was obvious that the soldiers were not fighting well and they wanted to report to Tianting. I thought to myself, if I really reported to Tianting, the Emperor of Tartar was dissatisfied with us and the Han people. Maybe how could they torture us? So I wanted to lead a group of brothers to escape from Kyoto!"
"Yes, not only us, but many Tartar soldiers also escaped!" I don't know who it was in the crowd, and seemed to be afraid of Xiao Yun's displeasure, and explained.
Xiao Yun nodded, and the water flowed to the lower part and people walked to the higher part. He naturally knew this truth. In the eyes of a group of scholars, since they became soldiers, they naturally had to pay attention to loyalty to the country. But in the eyes of these soldiers who did not know a few Chinese characters, survival is the most important thing. If not, who would join the army? Besides, if this war is carefully considered, it was not their fault. It was the court that did not distinguish between loyalty and treason, and killed good people by mistake, which led to the defeat today. Besides, the Tartar emperor always distrusts the Han people and regards the Han people as fourth-class people. Now the Han people are rising one by one, which is a great opportunity to restore the Han people's country. Many princes are taking advantage of the chaos to recruit soldiers and horses. They are just soldiers, and they are all in the army there. In that case, why do you need to be looked down upon here?
