"Great Elder, I heard people say that Emperor Chongzhen of the Zhu family is a tyrannical king who is good at conquering and fighting. Since he ascended to the throne, he has conquered Mongolia in the north and built a state in the east without any defeat... This time Chongzhen personally conquers the west of the river. It may not be easy.

Deal with it?"

The speaker was the leader of the Shuixi An clan, who was promoted to the throne of Luodian King by An Bangyan. An Wei's mother She Shehui was She Chongming's sister. When his father An Yaochen died, An Wei was young and comforted him.

The power of the company was controlled by his mother She Shehui and his clan uncle An Bangyan. In the fifth year after An's accession to the throne, that is, the first year of Tianqi, An's uncle She Chongming took advantage of the opportunity of sending troops to Liaodong to attack Chongqing (the army

Passing by Chongqing) suddenly raised the anti-Ming flag, which kicked off the chaos of She and An.

An Wei was still young at the time, and he was not in charge of the government, and he had no ability to prevent his mother She Shehui and his clan brother An Bangyan from starting an army to support She Chongming.

But at that time, he was already a little sensible, and he also knew that his mother and his uncle had raised the army for Chen (Chenzhou) Chang (Changde), went to Jingzhou, and reached the Central Plains to create a splendid country for the Luodian An family. At that time, An

You were once full of confidence, waiting to become a ready-made master of the world.

But who knew that his uncle An Bangyan was not good at fighting. Although he joined forces with the Shuidong An clan to raise troops, they quickly surrounded Guiyang. But the siege lasted more than 300 days! Guiyang was surrounded until all supplies were exhausted.

The army and the people devoured each other, and three or four hundred thousand people were besieged and killed, but Guiyang was not captured.

Guiyang has not been captured, so there is no need to think about Chenzhou, Changde, Jingzhou...

When the Allied Forces of An and Song Dynasty surrounded Guiyang, She Chongming, who was besieging Chengdu, also failed. Not only did Chengdu be captured, but Zunyi, Suiyang, Meitan, Tongzi, Wujiang and other places were also recovered by Qin Liangyu and others. In the end, She Chongming and others were recaptured.

Chongming was still defeated by the Ming army who came to relieve the siege under the city of Chengdu. Soon after, Chongqing and his hometown Yongning were also lost, so he had to flee to Shuixi to attach himself to the An family.

Fortunately, the Shuixi An clan had a large territory and many soldiers, and the territory they occupied was high in mountains and densely forested. The An clan had deep roots and had been rooted in Shuixi for more than 1,300 years. It was not so easy to be wiped out by the Ming Dynasty.

Therefore, although the An family failed to capture Guiyang, the She family was defeated in Sichuan, and most of the Song family's land in Shuidong was occupied by the Ming army. However, the An family's rule in Shuixi is still unshakable!

In the third year of Tianqi, An Bangyan also took advantage of the complex terrain of Shuixi to implement a strategy of luring the enemy deep into the country. He lured the 60,000-strong army of Wang Sanshan, then governor of Guizhou, into the vicinity of Dafang City, and then cut off its food routes. And in the fourth year of Tianqi,

In the first month of that year, when Wang Sanshan ran out of food and retreated, he set up an ambush and severely damaged the king's troops, even killing Wang Sanshan himself.

After this battle, the Shuixi'an clan regained its prestige and once again attacked the city of Guiyang. The Ming Dynasty used the capable minister Fu Zonglong to patrol Guizhou and preside over military affairs. With Fu Zonglong's efforts, the Shuixi'an clan's attack was repelled again, and finally

The two sides have been facing each other on both sides of the Wujiang River until today.

One Fu Zonglong left the Shuixi'an clan with nothing to do, and now there is another Ming emperor... Is the thousand-year separatist rule of the Shuixi'an clan coming to an end?

Seeing that An Wei was worried, An Bangyan was still as confident as ever, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, my lord, the little emperor of the Ming Dynasty was only good at riding horses and rushing into battle, and had never fought in the mountains and forests. And this little emperor did not

He doesn't have much resourcefulness, he just acts recklessly, and he doesn't govern the country well. He always travels around, and he is a fool! If he stays in the north, we, the An family, can't do anything to him for a while, but now he has come to our door by himself.

Here we come... Hehe, we can deal with him the same way we dealt with Wang Sanshan. If the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty dies in Shuixi, our An family will become more powerful and we will definitely be able to take advantage of the victory to seize the Kingdom of Tianfu in Xichuan. By then

It’s one of three things in the world!”

"But...but maybe Zhu Youjian is not a fool?" An Wei still couldn't get excited.

With the biggest bosses of the Ming Dynasty here, it will not be easy for the Shuixi'an clan to survive the current calamity... It's still three parts of the world, is it too much to think about?

An Bangyan knew that it would be difficult for him to convince the head of the An family, so he had no choice but to wink at She Shehui, the "Queen Mother of Shuixi".

She Shehui is in his forties this year and has helped his son govern for more than ten years. For ten of those years, he was still fighting, and he was a little exhausted mentally and physically, and his hair has turned gray.

But no matter how haggard she is, she still has to support An Bangyan to continue fighting!

Because the war between Shuixi and Ming Dynasty started because of her. If she didn't support her brother She Chongming, where would the current situation be?

Moreover, Shuixi and the Ming Dynasty already had a deep hatred. The little emperor of the Ming Dynasty has firmly refused to recruit Shuixi since he came to the throne.

If the fight is not continued, Shuixi will perish.

"Whether the little emperor is a coward or not, we will know if we send someone to investigate." She Shehui said, "Didn't there be news yesterday that the little emperor was going to Zunyi Mansion to take charge? We might as well send someone to investigate and see what happened in Zunyi.

Will Bian be revitalized under the auspices of the little emperor?"

"Who can go to Zunyi Mansion to have a look?" An Wei asked.

"You can ask Shuixi Confucian scholar Yang Guodong to come!" An Bangyan suggested. "Yang Guodong is the nephew (nephew) of Yang Yinglong in Bozhou. After Yang Yinglong was defeated, he fled to Shuixi, where he started a school and taught apprentices. He was quite popular.

...If we ask him to act as an envoy, the little emperor will definitely not do any harm."

An Wei nodded repeatedly, "Okay, okay, Mr. Yang is a great scholar, Zhu Youjian will definitely not harm him, just let him go."

This Yang Chaodong, the son of Yang Guodong and Yang Yinglong, is the same generation as Yang Kedong, but he is not one of the rebels in Bizhou. Because he and Yang Yinglong are already far apart in blood (the Yang family in Bizhou has many branches for more than 700 years), and

He also devoted himself to studying Confucianism and regarded the imperial examination as a lifelong career.

After the regime of the Yang family in Bozhou fell, Yang Guodong fled to Shuixi with his family to avoid being implicated, and became attached to the Shuixi An family. However, he did not engage in politics in Anxi, but ran a school, taught apprentices, and became a teacher. Because Shuixi

There were not many Confucian scholars here, so Yang Guodong gradually became famous. An Wei studied Confucian classics with Mr. Yang when he was a child.

But An Bangyan's praise of him as a great scholar was nonsense, and it was even more unkind to send him to Zunyi... Yang Guodong was Yang Yinglong's nephew, and he was attached to the Shuixi'an family. The young emperor of the Ming Dynasty was a tyrant, so he might have killed him.

.

Yang Guodong was somewhat famous among the chieftains in the southwest. If he died... what would the southwestern chieftains think? It has been so many years since the Yang family in Bozhou perished, and the imperial court has not let go of the descendants of the Yang family. It can be seen that the imperial court has long ago

He has the intention to wipe out all the chieftain families!

...

Just when Yang Guodong was on his way to Zunyi Mansion with another peace letter from the Shuixi'an family, Zhu Youjian was busy with weddings in Zunyi Mansion...the marriages of many people! Of course, including him

own.

Qin Liangyu has brought one of her granddaughters and a grandniece to Zunyi. Among them, Qin Liangyu's granddaughter is named Ma Ruyu, and Qin Liangyu's grandniece is named Qin Kezhen. They are both tall and graceful girls in their twenties and eighties.

These are two girls with long legs. They are not as tall as Qin Liangyu, but they are both tall. They are both around 5 feet 56 (one foot is about 31 centimeters). Considering their age, they may be a little taller.

.

Moreover, these two tall girls are neither fat nor slender, but they are definitely not fat. They are quite well-proportioned and graceful. However, their appearance is not particularly outstanding, and it is not as good as that of Concubine Tian and Yuan from last week.

Among them, Ma Ruyu is a bit dark, a piece of "black jade", but her facial features are quite delicate and very attractive.

Qin Kezhen is a girl with thick eyebrows and big eyes. Her facial features are all one size larger, and she looks a bit rough. But her skin is very white, and she can cover up all ugliness, so she can be regarded as a beauty.

"Okay, these two beauties are really graceful and graceful. They are my favorite..." They circled around the two long-legged girls with flushed faces and drooping heads, looking like fools.

Zhu Youjian finally nodded with satisfaction.
Chapter completed!
