Zhu Youjian: Taizu has an order! kill!

Chapter 521: Draw 3 from 1, tax 64

The title of King of Han?

Zhu Youluo let out a breath and said nothing.

All he wants now is to get through this situation honestly.

As long as Zhu Jiajun's organization still exists, he will be satisfied.

That night.

As Zhu Youjian handed over the choice to them.

The figure on the high platform never stopped appearing all night long.

Except for a few dozen people who were unable to attack their fellow tribesmen and chose to withdraw, the others all chose to cut off their hair to prove their determination.

On the second day, the 50,000 men and horses in Zhu's army camp were all equipped with equipment.

Under the leadership of Cao Wenzhao and Cao Bianjiao, they headed south.

Their first goal is to station in Nanyang and wait for follow-up orders.

--------------------------

Just when the capital city sent Zhu's army southward.

In the south, the king of Shu rebelled.

Chu King Zhu Huakui had no choice but to form an alliance with the two families.

We agreed to advance and retreat together and fight to the death with Zhu Youjian!

For a time, Huguang, Sichuan, and Guangdong and Guangxi were all plunged into chaos.

Zhu Huakui's conscription policy was widely promoted.

As long as there are strong men who do not join the army, they will face high food prices.

Later, Zhu Huakui simply sent people to the countryside to force recruitment.

It’s just a three-digit draw!

In just two weeks, Zhu Huakui's troops expanded to about 100,000.

Although the combat effectiveness is uneven, the number of people alone is already quite large.

This is only Huguang. Jingjiang King Zhu Hengjia also has about 60,000 troops.

Perhaps the only one with fewer troops was the King of Shu.

The situation in Sichuan is different from that in other places.

The implementation of Sanding Draw One was strongly resisted by the common people.

Fortunately, Zhu Zhishu, the king of Shu, also received strong support from the local gentry in Sichuan.

With the 30,000 people they have gathered, it is only a matter of time before the policy is pushed forward forcefully.

"According to what Fan Wencheng said, we have already assembled our troops."

"The next step is to break into Jiangxi and seize more territory."

"Capture Nakang and Nanchang and restrict the White Army stationed in Jiujiang."

In the palace of the King of Chu.

Zhu Huakui was looking at the map with a somewhat excited expression.

To have a hundred thousand soldiers and horses in such a short period of time is like destiny!

It is estimated that the entire Huguang base can squeeze out 200,000 soldiers.

With such a force, let alone overthrowing Zhu Youjian, there would at least be no problem in taking over the southern part of the Ming Dynasty.

If Jiangxi can be captured again, it will be easy to add an additional 100,000 troops.

The situation is great!

"Your Majesty, don't worry, a letter has already arrived from Prime Minister Fan."

"Why don't you see what he thinks first."

Next to him, the old man Wu who was standing took out a letter from his arms and said with a smile.

The current situation is indeed good, and as long as we act steadily, great things can be expected.

"Okay, let's talk about it."

"I'd like to see what this Fan Wencheng is capable of."

After listening to what Old Man Wu said, Zhu Huakui curled his lips in disdain.

He still looked down upon Fan Wencheng.

I always feel that this guy is just a traitor, what real ability can he have...

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"The letter sent by Prime Minister Fan this time does not contain much content. There are three arrangements in total."

"First, let us continue to expand our troops and increase the collection of food, grass and money."

"In addition to drawing one out of three, we also need to increase taxes on those people who are unwilling to cooperate."

"If no one in the family joins the army, the tax will be 64. If there is one person in the family, the tax will be 50-50. If there are two people in the family, the tax will be 40-60."

"No matter what, we must increase the number of troops to 150,000 as quickly as possible."

"Second, taking Huguang is only the first step. We must also strengthen troop training and continue to build armaments."

"The King of Chu needs to station five thousand troops and horses in Jingzhou to defend the King of Shu, and station five thousand troops and horses in Yongzhou to defend the King of Jingjiang."

"Of the remaining 90,000 troops, 20,000 will be stationed in Xiangyang to resist the enemy in the north, 20,000 will be stationed in Wuchang, and the rest will take the opportunity to enter Jiangxi and capture Nankang and Nanchang."

"Considering that the gentry in other towns in the south are extremely nervous now, it is not difficult to conquer the entire province of Jiangxi as long as we use more connections among the landlord gentry in the towns."

"When Jiangxi is captured, we can plot Nanjing."

"Third, the biggest obstacle to His Majesty's success is the White Army."

"So it is necessary to always find out the direction of the white pole army and fly pigeons to send the message."

"At present, the Baigan Army is divided into three groups. Excluding those stationed in Nanjing, 2,000 people are in Nanyang and 5,000 people are in Jiujiang."

"In this case, we only need to kill 5,000 people in Jiujiang to render the Baigan Army unable to fight anymore."

"Then take down Nakang and Nanchang first to form a confrontation, and then listen to his orders."

Old man Wu quickly recounted the contents of Fan Wencheng's letter.

The whole plan sounds very solid and has clear goals.

Zhu Huakui made two gestures on the map and couldn't help but snorted.

"I do have two brushes."

"It's pretty much what I expected."

"Then do as he says."

"Let the local squires mobilize connections and persuade people from Jiangxi to vote."

"We must win Jiangxi as quickly as possible!"

"As for Qin Liangyu..."

"Can a bitch kill me?"

Zhu Huakui didn't care too much about the white pole army mentioned in the letter.

It's only ten thousand people, how can we beat him with one hundred thousand people?

When he gets the armor and weapons, he will let Qin Liangyu go wherever he came from.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"I will make arrangements now!"

Old man Wu didn't say much nonsense after hearing this.

He is also stubborn and has no regard for female generals.

Women should not support their husbands and raise their children.

How can she play with the battlefield?

On that day, King Chu's military order was conveyed to the military camp outside the city.

In just three days, various armies set out according to plan, and smoke and dust billowed toward the goal.

Naturally, King Chu's move of troops could not be concealed from the surrounding people.

It's okay for King Jingjiang and King Shu. They are all allies, so they don't need to be too wary.

But in Nanjing, Wen Tiren's face didn't look good at this time.

"Everyone, this King Chu is a little proud."

"His goal is already very clear, which is Jiangxi."

"Let's talk about what to do next."

In the room, Wen Tiren looked at the people sitting around the dining table, exhaled and said quickly.

As soon as he received the information, he called everyone over to eat and chat.

Since Zhu Huakuiming is going to play Jiangxi, they can't just sit around.

"Jiangxi cannot be thrown away."

"That place has outstanding people and is rich in products, not to mention its wealth."

"With their method of forced conscription, they can raise another 100,000 people by taking Jiangxi's guarantee."

Wei Zhongxian was the first to express his opinion.

Jiangxi is home to many talented people and is not only wealthy but also has convenient transportation.

Places like these must not be taken over by traitors.

Wei Zhongxian's words made a group of people around him nodded.

They all mean the same thing, Jiangxi Ruodi is a little passive.

Seeing that no one had any objections, Wen Tiren turned to look at Qin Liangyu who was eating again.

His face was very helpless.

"I said General Qin..."

"Can you stop eating?"

"Everyone thinks Jiangxi cannot be lost, but it's up to you to decide how to defend it."
