From beggar to emperor: I am not Zhu Yuanzhang

Facts have proved that old age is still the best. Lu Yongzhi has been traveling around the world for many years. What kind of battle has he not seen? Full of intrigues, Yu and Yao are no match for each other.

Yu Gongchu was still struggling with Gao Pian's attitude. He would not know that Lu Yongzhi had already bypassed Gao Pian and was preparing to attack them.

Now, he is waiting for an opportunity.

A few days later, a riot broke out in Haozhou (now Fengyang, Anhui), and the governor of Haozhou asked Gao Pian for urgent help.

The opportunity is here.

Lu Yongzhi immediately rushed to see Gao Pian and tried his best to persuade Gao Pian to send Yu Gongchu and Yao Guili to Haozhou to quell the rebellion and make the merits of the crime a crime.

Gao Pian believed that the Haozhou Rebellion was just a riot by a group of people, and there was no need to send his trusted generals there. It was just killing a chicken with a sledgehammer. But Lu Yong was determined to put them to death, so he was unwilling to miss this opportunity, so he repeatedly admonished:

"My lord, you are ridiculous. When Luzhou was defeated last time, Generals Yu and Yao were not punished. The generals in the government were talking about it and they were not convinced. Some people even privately said that the lord was protecting them. The morale of the army was unstable. This time Hao The state riots are a good opportunity for them to take advantage of their merits. Only when they calm down the riots and return in triumph will the generals have nothing to say."

Gao Pian thought about it and realized that it was indeed the case. The last time Luzhou was defeated, no one had taken responsibility, and Generals Yu and Yao had not been severely punished. It was inevitable that the generals would feel unjust. How about using this opportunity to let them save some face? It is also good to block the mouths of the generals.

Thinking of this, Gao Pian agreed to Lu Yongzhi's suggestion and ordered Yu Gongchu and Yao Guili to lead troops to Haozhou to quell the rebellion.

Lu Yongzhi was in a great mood after hearing the news, and immediately implemented his next plan. He sent someone to secretly sneak into Luzhou to meet Yang Xingmi's fourth brother Tao Ya and reveal to him a top-secret message:

In order to avenge the last time in Luzhou, Yu Gongchu and Yao Guili planned to take advantage of the opportunity of suppressing the riots in Haozhou to raid Luzhou under the pretext of borrowing the road and kill Yang Xingmi to avenge their hatred.

As soon as Tao Ya saw this news, she was furious. This is amazing! These two thieves are determined to fight again. This time we, Old Tao, will definitely not show any mercy.

Tao Ya, who has a hot temper, actually has a thoughtful side. To be cautious, he immediately sent out a detective horse to find out the news. Not long after, they reported back and discovered that Yu Gongchu and Yao Guili were mobilizing troops and heading towards Luzhou.

Now Tao Ya couldn't help but not believe it. In fact, the real situation was that Luzhou was the only way to Haozhou. When Yu and Yao sent troops to Haozhou, they must pass through Luzhou. However, this loophole was exploited by Lu Yongzhi.

Now Tao Ya is convinced that these two people are here to attack Luzhou. The matter is urgent and there is no time to report to the elder brother. I must stop them and attack them head-on. It is my duty to block the knife for the elder brother.

So Tao Ya urgently ordered to mobilize troops to move in the direction of Yu Yao's army, and ambush them on the only way to Luzhou, preparing to catch them off guard.

Yu Gongchu and Yao Guili had been unhappy with this Haozhou operation, but they did not dare to disobey Gao Pian's words, so they had no choice but to bite the bullet and set off.

The army soon entered the boundary of Luzhou. When he saw the boundary monument, Yao Guili was trembling in his heart and said to Yu Gongchu: "Brother Yu, I have an ominous feeling when we arrive in Luzhou."

"Don't scare yourself, give the order and speed up." Yu Gongchu didn't take it seriously.

After the order was conveyed, the Yangzhou Army obviously accelerated its advance. The army passed through a hill and entered a depression. Suddenly, rows of cavalry appeared on the hill, waving flags, raising their swords and shouting.

Yao Guili was shocked by the sudden appearance of the ambush. He grabbed the handle of the knife and said nervously to Yu Gongchu: "Brother Yu, we have fallen into a trap."

Yu Gongchu also realized the seriousness of the problem at this time, and was afraid that they would not be able to reach Haozhou.

I saw him raising his long sword and shouting: "Change the formation to meet the enemy——"

As soon as he finished speaking, the crowd on the hillside moved out of the way, and saw Tao Ya clapped her horse forward, snorted, and angrily said: "Two thieves Yu Yao, last time we, Old Tao, showed mercy and let you go... ..Uh, two dogs’ lives, do you care about food rather than beating? You are looking for death again, and you want to sneak attack Luzhou, bah, today, we will let you have a taste of Lao Tao’s mace!”

As he spoke, he danced his mace, clapped his horse and rushed down the hillside, rushing into the Yangzhou army formation like lightning. The soldiers had no time to resist. Before he could see clearly what the incoming person looked like, he was overturned by the huge impact and the formation was suddenly disrupted.

The people behind saw Tao Ya rushing in. They were afraid that something had happened to him and could not explain it to Yang Xingmi. They did not bother to suppress it with cold weapons and fire, so they rushed down together.

This powerful impact immediately caused the Yangzhou Army's defense line to collapse. Tao Ya was a famous warrior in the Crouching Tiger Camp, on par with Tian Wei. Everyone was afraid of that mace and would hit you without any hesitation.

Seeing that the defense line was about to collapse, Yu Gongchu became anxious and shouted: "Don't mess up, don't mess up, hold on!" As he spoke, he swung his long sword and rushed left and right. The people in the Crouching Tiger Camp could not get close to him, and this was not Yu Gongchu either. He was given for free. After all, he is Gao Pian's number one general. He would be a ruthless person if he really risked his life with you.

Yao Guili was surrounded by everyone at this time and was a little unable to resist.

When Yu Gongchu saw that Yao Guili was in trouble, he wanted to save him. However, when he turned around, his horse was stabbed by a spear and fell to the ground. Yu Gongchu fell off the horse. At the critical moment, he jumped up, stopped riding and fought on foot, approaching Yao Guili.

Tao Ya has seen it all, can I let you join in the same deeds? joke.

However, Tao Ya was upright and did not take advantage of others' danger. When he saw Yu Gongchu fall from his horse, he abandoned his horse, jumped off and chased after him on foot, and got into a fight with Yu Gongchu.

At this time, Yao Guili could no longer withstand it and was stabbed to the ground from his horse. A group of soldiers from the Crouching Tiger Battalion shouted and rushed forward, slashing with knives...

Yao Guili died, and Yu Gongchu also retreated step by step, gradually falling into the siege of Crouching Tiger Camp. Seeing that the situation was over, the remaining Yangzhou troops fled for their lives, with only a few people still resisting. The more Tao Ya fought, the more courageous she became. She swept Yu Gongchu to the ground with one sweeping move and killed him with one blow.

With the death of Yu and Yao, the Yangzhou army completely collapsed and suffered a complete defeat. Those who didn't have time to escape were all prisoners. After counting, more than 3000 people were captured, and countless weapons, armors, horses and baggage were seized. This made Tao Yale very happy.

Tao Ya waved her hand: "Clean the battlefield."

He didn't know that this time he had caused a big trouble for Yang Xingmi.

The team escorting the prisoners returned to Luzhou one after another. The soldiers on the city tower whispered to each other: "Where did Mr. Tao go and win another battle? Look at this formation."

When Liu Wei, who was patrolling the city, saw Tao Ya passing through the city, he immediately felt that something was wrong. He immediately went to the city and stopped his horse's head: "Fourth brother, where did you get rich?"

When Tao Ya saw it was Liu Wei, she looked proud: "Oh, it's Lao Qi. Lao Tao just made a big deal and ate [-] thieves and captured [-]. Haha, this time the eldest brother must give My first achievement."

Liu Wei looked back and saw that the escorts were all prisoners of the Yangzhou Army. He was shocked and blurted out: "Fourth brother, you are probably in trouble. How did you kill the Yangzhou Army?"

"Why, can't it?" Tao Ya didn't care.

Liu Wei reminded: "Eldest brother has just accepted Gao Pian's recruitment, how come you killed [-] Yangzhou troops? If Gao Pian is convicted, how do you want eldest brother to explain, and how do you explain to eldest brother?"

"I, I..." Tao Ya was speechless.

Liu Wei: "Who is the commander-in-chief of the Yangzhou Army?"

Tao Yanunu mouthed: "Yu Gongchu and Yao Guili, those two thieves and bastards."

"What about people?"

"Killed by me."

"What! You...you killed them both?" Liu Wei was shocked.

"These two are Gao Pian's confidants. If you kill someone, how do you want the eldest brother to explain to Gao Pian?"

"This...I..." Tao Ya was already confused.

"You've gotten into a big trouble, and maybe your eldest brother has been dragged into the water as well." Liu Wei sighed.

Tao Ya seemed to be a little more awake at this time: "Then... what should I do? Lao Qi, you have to say something for me."

"What should I do? What else can I do? Let's go. I'll go with you to see my elder brother. You can explain yourself."

Liu Wei took Tao Ya and left.
