After escaping from Taiyuan, Wang Baobao first fled to Xinzhou.

Chang Yuchun, who decided to eliminate the root cause without leaving any further trouble, did not want to let him go. He had been biting Wang Baobao since he ran away, and chased him all the way to Xinzhou.

Wang Baobao, who had never hesitated about running away, was indeed unambiguous. When he found out that Chang Yuchun had been chasing after him, he made a wise decision.

Passing through Xinzhou without entering, they crossed Xinzhou and ran directly towards Datong.

The most challenging thing about running is your leg skills.

Wang Baobao was born into a Mongolian nobleman, so he had a great advantage.

That is: livestock.

In terms of livestock, Wang Baobao is much better than Chang Yuchun's war horse, which is not much stronger than a donkey.

So he was lucky enough to escape Chang Yuchun's pursuit.

He ran to Datong in one breath.

But when he heard that the Chinese army had begun to attack Shaanxi after liberating Shanxi, he felt that he was outnumbered and would be wiped out by the enemy sooner or later if he hid in Datong alone. He decided to retreat again and went straight to Gansu to join forces with the friendly forces there.

Chang Yuchun also seemed to know his own shortcomings, so when he chased Xinzhou and found that there was no hope of catching up, let alone killing Wang Baobao, he decided to give up.

He led his troops back to Taiyuan.

With Wang Baobao's withdrawal, all of Shanxi was liberated.

After cleaning up the remaining enemies in Shanxi, Xu Da began to launch an attack in another place.

This place is Shaanxi, which is only separated by a mountain from Shanxi.

At this time, there was a group of soldiers and horses in Shaanxi who obeyed the Yuan Dynasty.

Their boss is called: Li Siqi.

He has hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses in his hands.

In order to wipe out this only force entrenched in the central area of ​​the north in one fell swoop, Xu Da sent an army into Shaanxi.

The first thing he focused on was a place in Shaanxi, which was once the capital of a country.

It can be said to have a very strategic position.

The name of this place at that time was: Fengyuan Road. (This is a place name, not a street as we call it now.)

Xu Da believed that as long as he captured this place, there would no longer be any threats to other places in Shaanxi.

At this time, Li Siqi, who was guarding Shaanxi, faced this tiger and wolf army, and he only did one thing.

Escape.

I know I can't fuck you, but I can't escape you!

Wherever your Ming army attacks, I will give up.

Let me fight you head-on, don't even think about it!

At worst, when I finally have no place to give up, I will surrender.

I can still make a clear profit doing this small business.

Therefore, when the Ming army attacked Fengyuan Road, Li Siqi just let his men carry out simple resistance and then fled with his troops.

After Xu Da captured Fengyuan Road, he did one thing first.

Change name.

Fengyuan Road was renamed Xi'an Prefecture.

Our current Xi'an was transformed at this time.

After liberating Xi'an, Xu Da began to clean up other remnants of enemy troops in Shaanxi.

As the power of the Ming army continued to expand, Li Siqi, who was under pressure and felt that he had done enough as a courtier of the Yuan Dynasty, decided to do one last big thing.

Lead his troops to surrender.

As the boss, Zhu Yuanzhang readily accepted Li Siqi's surrender and did not treat him badly. He was rewarded with an official position: Jiangxi Pingzhang Political Affairs (equivalent to the governor of a province).

At the same time, in order to fully tap Li Siqi's potential, Zhu Yuanzhang also gave him a task.

A difficult task.

Went to Gansu to persuade Wang Baobao to surrender.

This is a truly great mission.

The reason why I call it great is not because of how important it is, nor because of the great impact it will have, but because this mission is morally impossible to complete.

I personally think that Zhu Yuanzhang did this with a try-it-and-try attitude.

If this thing can be done, that would be the best. If it cannot be done, then there is no need for you to come back alive and just die there!

To put it bluntly, what Zhu Yuanzhang did was to let him die.

Anyway, I don’t have you too much here.

Not one less of you is too much.

For this task, Li Siqi, who had just been promoted to provincial governor, probably did not want to accept it from the bottom of his heart.

But he couldn't refuse.

Because the new boss in front of him, who has a donkey-like face and a discordant top and bottom, is obviously not a good person, nor is he someone to be trifled with.

Now, it can be said that he extends his head with a knife, and shrinks his head with a knife.

No matter what you do, you will die.

It depends on how you want to die!

In this dilemma in Xi'an, he finally chose to accept the order and traveled to Gansu to persuade Wang Baobao to surrender.

Rather than being killed by Zhu Yuanzhang, it would be better to try his luck with Wang Baobao.

Maybe that bastard had a short-circuit in his brain and accepted his invitation!

Under this situation, Li Siqi headed for Gansu.

At this time, Emperor Yuan Shun, who had been eating weeds and drinking the northwest wind for several months, finally couldn't bear the loneliness. He originally pinned his hope of regaining the capital on Li Siqi, but he didn't expect that

This crappy snack didn't work.

And this bastard finally surrendered to the enemy.

This traitor.

If I had known that you would rebel against the revolution today, I should have done something to you beforehand.

I don't want you to embarrass me.

Now if I want to return to Dadu, it seems that there is only one force I can rely on.

That is Wang Baobao's army.

Faced with this situation, Emperor Yuanshun, who had been hiding in Xanadu for several months, did two things.

He first ordered Wang Baobao to be promoted to Prime Minister of the Right, and asked Wang Baobao to lead his troops to leave Gansu and assemble in Shangdu.

Later, while the Ming army led by Xu Da was messing around in Shaanxi, Emperor Yuan Shun, who had been drinking the northwest wind in Shangdu for several months and could not wait any longer, ordered Prime Minister You to lead his troops to Dadu as quickly as possible.

Take the opportunity to take back Dadu.

Wait for Wang Baobao's team to arrive before cleaning up the rest of the remnants of the gang.

Yesu took the order and set off at the call of Emperor Yuan Shun.

His first stop was to hit the vital point and attack Xanadu.

But when they arrived at Tongzhou and before they had time to attack the city, they heard bad news.

A very bad news.

Chang Yuchun, who was as tall as a blind bear two meters away, rushed north to rescue Peiping.

Also coming with him was a guy named Li Wenzhong.

Behind the two of them were 80,000 fully equipped infantry and 10,000 invincible cavalry on horseback.

After hearing the news, as the current boss of the Yuan army, Ye quickly issued an order.

Give up the siege and flee for your life.

How can we, a group of grass-eating people, fight with you, a group of animals that eat meat all day long?

It's impossible to beat it.

If you can't beat him, then run away quickly.

As the saying goes: The world is dangerous, if it doesn't work, just retreat.

You are awesome, but we give in.

You guys are awesome, we admit defeat!
