"Mission: Find a way to get Fang Qifu and Fang Baihua to join the Red Shadow Army and strengthen the Red Shadow Army.
Reward: After completing the task, you will be rewarded with 399 nine-color divine lights and a chance to draw a lottery. "
Xu Xian is now in the Golden Core realm. To advance to the next realm and condense the Nascent Soul, he needs nine hundred and ninety-nine nine-color divine light.
Xu Xian has completed two missions and obtained six hundred nine-color divine lights. As long as he completes this mission, he can advance to the Nascent Soul realm.
For Fang Qifu and Fang Baihua to join the Red Shadow Army, they will definitely have to wait until the rebel army is defeated.
Xu Xian gave the rebels a glimmer of hope, but Fang La obviously didn't grasp it. When Fang La decided to give up taking Nanjing, Fang La was already heading towards his fate.
Xu Xian felt it was a pity. If he were Fang La, he would definitely seize Nanjing at all costs.
As for the generals who don't support it, you can talk to them one by one, analyze the pros and cons, and promise huge benefits. Xu Xian doesn't believe that they won't be moved.
It may not be possible to convince all the generals, but with Fang La's status and influence, it is not a big problem for more than half of the generals to support him.
With hundreds of thousands of troops, hold a mobilization meeting, draw pictures, talk about the tragic fate after the failure, and talk about the suffering before the uprising. When everyone shares the same hatred and blood boils, and marches directly to Nanjing, the chances of winning are great.
Xu Xian felt sorry for them, but he had no intention of changing their fate. Even if he wanted to change, he actually didn't have the ability, and would even try to catch up with himself.
Everyone's destiny needs to be grasped individually, and everyone's path needs to be walked separately.
Xu Xian has already warned him, but Fang La refuses to listen, and what awaits him will definitely be a tragic fate.
Xu Xian asked Tian Can and Di Que to keep an eye on the movements of Fang La and the lame Taoist.
There was no lame Taoist strategist in Fang La in history.
Although the lame Taoist is Fang La's military advisor, he is also the leader of Chu Huizong's Xingchu Alliance, and he is also the avatar of the Taoist in the misty world.
At the critical moment, Xu Xian was not sure which side the lame Taoist would help.
In the history that Xu Xian knew, there was no lame Taoist.
After capturing Hangzhou, Fang La sent Fang Qifu to lead the Northern Expedition, captured Chongde County in one fell swoop, attacked Xiuzhou northeast of Hangzhou, and divided his troops into Huzhou.
Just as Wang Zhen led the Chu army from the east to come from the north, Fang Qifu's rebel army fought against them, but failed to win and retreated to Hangzhou.
At the same time, Fang La led the main force to march south and captured Wu and Qu states one after another.
The rebel army went north to conquer Ningguo County in Xuanzhou and surrounded Guangde Army.
The rebels successively captured more than 50 counties in six states, including the entire territory of present-day Zhejiang Province and the vast areas of Anhui, southern Jiangsu, and northeastern Jiangxi.
The rebel army lost the battle of Xiuzhou and Hangzhou lost its barrier.
Different from history, after receiving the news that Tong Guan commanded his army to go south, the rebels had shrunk their front line, and 90% of the rebels had withdrawn to the vicinity of Hangzhou.
Fang La and his generals wanted to have a life-or-death showdown with Tong Guan's 150,000 troops outside the city of Hangzhou.
There is no danger to defend Hangzhou. With a ragtag group of 150,000 regular troops going to attack Tong Guan, Xu Xian has no hope for the rebels.
In the following period, the rebels did not take any action.
Fang La would convene the generals for a mobilization meeting every morning. In the afternoon, he would go to the army with the generals to talk to the soldiers, remember the bitterness and sweet memories, denounce the cruel rule of Da Chu, and ask everyone to work together to overthrow Da Chu and establish a new nation. An ideal era where everyone is equal.
The rebel army is relatively calm for the time being. Fang Qifu and Fang Baihua have to follow Fang La to promote their ideals in the army, and rarely come to Xu Mansion.
Xu Xian refined the three hundred nine-color divine light obtained from the last mission, and his strength improved again.
Bai Suzhen integrated the origin of the ancestral dragon into the inner elixir, raising her cultivation to a whole new level. As her cultivation improves, the origin of the ancestral dragon in the inner elixir will be slowly refined.
With the origin of the ancestral dragon, Bai Suzhen's cultivation has improved rapidly, and her bloodline has been completely changed, becoming more pure than the real dragon clan.
After Huijue saw the bodhi tree, she had some enlightenment and kept retreating in Xu Mansion. Xu Xian felt that the energy fluctuations in Huijue's retreat became more and more peaceful.
Before the rebels entered Hangzhou City, Fang La warned the rebels that everything related to Xu Xian must be respected.
Therefore, Xu Mansion, Jishitang, and Qiantang County have become forbidden areas for the rebels.
Li Gongfu managed Qiantang County in an orderly manner, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment.
Fangla's rebels did not attack Qiantang County, but they also sent rebels to garrison outside. The people in Qiantang County could not get out, and people from outside could not get in.
Li Gongfu knew that Qiantang County could not be affected by the war because Fang La gave Xu Xian face.
Thank God for being able to save the people of Qiantang County. Li Gongfu knew his own abilities and knew how to advance and retreat. He only defended his own one-third of an acre, no matter how war raged outside.
Tian Can and Di Que's surveillance finally yielded results, and the lame Taoist finally took action.
The lame Taoist asked Fang La for 30,000 young and strong elite soldiers, saying that with 30,000 elite soldiers, he could defeat Tong Guan's 150,000 army.
Fang La's rebel army exceeds one million, including more than 300,000 young and middle-aged soldiers. They are all peasant armies without formal training, with backward equipment and weapons, and poor military discipline. Fang La has no confidence at all against the court's 150,000 regular troops.
The lame Taoist needs 30,000 troops to retreat Tong Guan's 150,000 army. This is hope in despair. Not only Fang La supports it, but the generals also have great hopes for the lame Taoist.
After receiving the promise from the lame Taoist, Fang La ambitiously stated during the mobilization meeting that if he could withdraw Tong Guan's 150,000 troops, take Nanjing in one go, and sit in the prosperous Jiangnan, the rebel army would be ready, give him a few He spent several years to recuperate and then marched his army straight to the capital. He went south and proclaimed himself emperor, and the generals made him marquis and prime minister. He promised a lame Taoist to break the earth and make him king.
The mobilization meeting was a success and the atmosphere was harmonious.
As for the 30,000 soldiers and horses that the lame Taoist wants, it can be easily handled. The generals can each give hundreds of soldiers and horses to the lame Taoist.
The lame Taoist organized 30,000 soldiers and horses, 5,000 cavalry, 5,000 archers, 3,000 shield bearers, and other miscellaneous troops with swords, guns, swords and halberds, equipped with whatever weapons they had.
The lame Taoist named his 30,000 soldiers and horses Tao soldiers.
In the following time, Lame Taoist conducted special training for 30,000 Taoist soldiers.
Fang Qifu and Fang Baihua also observed the training of 30,000 Taoist soldiers with the generals. In just a few days, Lame Taoist trained 30,000 Taoist soldiers more formally than the regular army.
Fang La and the generals were overjoyed. They had a little more confidence in the lame Taoist and praised his training methods.
Fang Baihua was also more concerned about the training of the 30,000 Taoist soldiers. Maybe women were more attentive, but Fang Baihua discovered something wrong with the 30,000 Taoist soldiers.
Although the three hundred Taoist soldiers had high fighting spirit and the domineering display during the charge was frightening, their eyes were dull and they seemed to be in a state of sleepwalking. They could only hear military orders and ignored everything else, just like walking zombies.
Fang Baihua expressed her doubts to Fang La, worrying that uncontrollable changes would occur.
Fang La said:
"At this time of life and death, as long as I can save my life, I am willing to pay any price.
Maybe after this battle, the three thousand Taoist soldiers of the military division will die of exhaustion?
so what?
If we lose, 300,000 rebels may die, or even the whole army may be wiped out.
If their sacrifice can be exchanged for the victory of the rebel army, they will be honored even if they die. I will give them the honor of martyrs, erect monuments and biographies, give them wives and children, and let them be famous throughout the ages.
The Tang Dynasty had 24 heroes from Lingyan Pavilion, and our Yongle Dynasty can also have 30,000 martyrs from Yongle Palace. "
Fang Baihua said:
“Perhaps, it is not necessary to sacrifice them, there are other ways.
Brother Emperor, maybe you can ask the military advisor, what is going on with the thirty thousand Dao soldiers? "
Fang La said:
"The military advisor once said before he asked me for 30,000 troops and horses. If you want to win this battle, you must pay a price. The 30,000 soldiers and horses handed over to the military advisor will be handled by the military advisor. No one can interfere with it under any excuse.
I promised my military advisor that as long as I can resolve today's crisis, I will proclaim myself the emperor from the south, and my military advisor will break the soil and become the king.
If I go back on my promise and interfere with the thirty thousand Dao soldiers, if I let the military advisor mistakenly think that I don't trust him, it will lead to complications. "
Fang Baihua said:
"What if the military advisor is so ambitious that he wants to replace the emperor brother?
Or, what if the military advisor is a spy of the imperial court and turns against him at a critical moment? "
Fang La smiled bitterly and said:
"If that's the case, I'll accept my fate."
Unable to convince Fang La, Fang Baihua decided to find Xu Xian and Bai Suzhen. With their abilities, they might have a way to break the situation.
