LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 101
May of the first year of Zhengde was definitely one of the busiest months on Shenwu Continent.
Zhu Chenhao, the Ning Wang of the Ming Dynasty, joined forces with the Jiangnan nobles to raise an army of 100,000 to rebel and kill Sun Sui, the governor of Jiangxi, and Xu Kui, the deputy envoy of Jiangxi Censorship. He issued a letter to various places, accusing the court, and sent troops to Jiujiang. He fought against Zhou Yu and 50,000 Jiangdong soldiers stationed there, but to no avail, and the army stopped moving forward.
Guan Yu, the general of Xiangyang, went east along the river, and surrounded the Ning Wang army with Zhou Yu's army.
Ren Woxing, the former leader of the Sun Moon Divine Cult, returned to the arena to respond to the Ning Wang, and received the support of many Sun Moon Divine Cult followers.
The current leader of the Sun Moon Divine Cult, Dongfang Bubai, led the remaining followers, announced his allegiance to and support of the court, and started a battle with Ren Woxing and others.
Three days after Prince Ning started his rebellion, the Qing Dynasty declared war on the Ming Dynasty. Wu Sangui, Prince of Pingxi, Shang Kexi, Prince of Pingnan, and Geng Jingzhong, Prince of Jingnan, each led a 50,000-man"827" army, and General Fuheng led an army of 150,000 to the south, and launched an attack on the Ming Dynasty in two routes.
Wu Sangui and his 150,000-man army met Qi Jiguang's 100,000-man army at Jiayuguan.���The two sides launched a bloody battle.
When Fu Heng's 150,000 troops invaded Shanhaiguan, they encountered 300,000 Northern Army led by Liu Yu and suffered heavy losses.
At the same time, the Liao Kingdom raised an army of 200,000 and the Jin Kingdom raised an army of 150,000 to launch a war against the Northern Song Dynasty. Three days later, Fang La, the leader of the Mingjiao Sect in the Northern Song Dynasty, raised an army of 200,000 to rebel! The Mongols raised an army of 500,000 led by Temujin and divided the troops into three routes to invade the Southern Song Dynasty.
For a while, the war spread across the eastern part of the Shenwu Continent, and also attracted the attention of other countries on the Shenwu Continent.

"It's a pity. If the Sui Dynasty hadn't blocked my way, I would have participated in it this time!" Li Shimin said with regret after listening to the report from Yuan Tiangang, the leader of the Bad People.
"Your Majesty, the Turks have been restless recently, so we still need to be on guard."Yuan Tiangang heard Li Shimin's words and hurriedly reminded him. Li Shimin nodded slightly and said,"It's a pity. There may not be such a good opportunity in the future.
After this war, Temujin will become more powerful again! Time is not waiting for my Tang Dynasty, Master Yuan, please ask someone to call Li Jing and Li Ji to me.
My Tang Dynasty cannot do nothing."

On the other side, in the palace of the Qin Dynasty, in front of Ying Zheng was a huge map of the Shenwu Continent, on which not only were the mountains and rivers marked, but also the deployment of troops from various countries.
It was obvious that Ying Zheng had been collecting intelligence from various countries for a long time, and even each country had people from the Qin Dynasty.
In front of him were many famous generals and ministers of the Qin Dynasty.
"This time, Temujin had a great plan. In order to invade the two Songs, he had laid a good plan and made sufficient preparations in the two Songs and the Ming Dynasty. It was only a matter of time before Zhu Houzhao suppressed the Ning King, but it would take some time to eliminate the threat from the Qing Dynasty. Fighting on two fronts would be disadvantageous to the Ming Dynasty."Ying Zheng looked at the information on the map and said coldly
"Your Majesty, the Ning Wang Rebellion should have been anticipated by the Emperor Ming. Zhou Yu's army in Jiujiang and Guan Yu's army in Xiangyang were probably prepared to target Ning Wang.
The most important thing is that we didn't know that there were large armies stationed in these two places. Not only did we not know, but even Ning Wang himself didn't know, otherwise he wouldn't have attacked Jiujiang directly!
Zhou Yu relied on 50,000 troops to not only resist the attack of Ning Wang's 100,000 troops, but also gained a certain advantage. Although he was not famous before, he deserves the title of a good general."Wang Jian stared at the map for a while and said in a deep voice
"Not only Guan Yu and Zhou Yu's army, but also Liu Yu's army. The intelligence we got before was 100,000, which is correct. Otherwise, the Qing Dynasty would not have led 150,000 troops to attack Shanhaiguan. But
I don't know when the troops here have been increased to 300,000.
Fuheng suffered from the intelligence loss and suffered heavy casualties."Then, Li Si pointed to the location of Shanhaiguan and said
"In other words, these 300,000 troops were the troops that Zhu Houzhao had hidden before."Ying Zheng narrowed his eyes and said,"What about the other troops of the Ming Dynasty? They should have 500,000 troops to mobilize.
Even if they want to defend against the invasion of the Mongols, they can't possibly need so many troops." (To read the novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
"I'm afraid the Emperor Ming had already made preparations to help the two Song dynasties.........."Neishiteng also spoke at this time
"No, not necessarily!"At this moment, Wei Liao shook his head slightly and said:"From the information we have now, the Emperor Ming may have already prepared for Prince Ning's rebellion, and even the Qing Dynasty is in the Emperor Ming's calculations.
This time, the Emperor Ming may not save the two Song Dynasties, but will focus on the Qing Dynasty."
"Ming and Qing?" Ying Zheng examined the map of Ming and said,"If Ming can solve the problem of Qing, then there will be no big country as an enemy in the north. At that time, whether it is to attack the Mongols, Liao and Jin in the west or to invade the Northern Song in the south, it will be easy.
But if the two Songs are occupied by the Mongols, Liao and Jin, the national strength of these three countries will increase greatly, and Ming will not be able to fight against them."
"Maybe the Emperor Ming thought that he could destroy the Qing Dynasty before the Song Dynasty was destroyed, and still have the strength to fight?
Your Majesty, don't forget that the Ming Dynasty still has 500,000 troops waiting for the enemy to tire themselves out.
And this 500,000 troops were unknown to my Great Qin before, and I think they were also unknown to the Mongols.
When the Song Dynasty was attacked, they did not move at all."Wei Liao said meaningfully. Ying
Zheng was silent when he heard this. Yes, only 400,000 troops on the Great Wall were enough.���We have repelled the 300,000 troops of the Qing Dynasty.
What about the other troops of the Ming Dynasty?
These troops can only add some trouble to the Mongols.
"It seems that I have underestimated Zhu Houzhao before! Zhao Gao, and then Luowang's intelligence gathering level on the Ming Dynasty was upgraded to the highest level like Genghis Khan and Li Shimin."Ying Zheng thought for a moment and said,"But these Hu people have been particularly rampant recently. We can't defeat the Mongols, Liao, Jin and Qing. Meng Tian, you lead 300,000 troops to the north.
My requirements are not high. I just want to eliminate the Hu troubles in the northern part of the Qin Dynasty forever."
This is not a high requirement!? Many people began to complain in their hearts.
"Yes!"Meng Tian didn't care much, but was eager to try. Xiongnu! I don't know if they can beat the golden fire cavalry. (Please give me flowers, monthly tickets, and automatic subscription. I love you guys!).
