I gather power with my gift of God and build the heaven.

In mid-December, Gao Yingxiang and Zhang Xianzhong joined forces and marched eastward to Southern Zhili, besieging Luzhou Prefecture.

However, they fought for seven days and seven nights but failed to take it down.

Because of the fear of being surrounded again, they had to withdraw their troops temporarily.

He then turned eastward and captured Chao County and Hanshan, and then besieged Quanjiao.

After Gao Yingxiang and his men captured Quanjiao, they planned to find an opportunity to cross the Yangtze River and head straight for Nanjing, the secondary capital of the Ming Dynasty.

After receiving the news, Chongzhen immediately became furious and repeatedly urged Lu Xiangsheng to wipe out the rebels as quickly as possible.

However, as the news spread more and more widely, a large amount of spiritual power gathered, and the power of these ghosts was growing rapidly.

Therefore, they did not evolve the power to interfere with reality and kill humans at the first moment.

On the other hand, seeing that the situation was so tense and Chongzhen's urging, Lu Xiangsheng certainly did not dare to be negligent and did not even celebrate the New Year of the eighth year of Chongzhen.

And to be honest, although Zhu Datian did nothing, he cannot be considered wrong. It can only be said that he had no sense of the overall situation and could only follow orders rigidly.

After all, the mountainous areas are barren and food and supplies are difficult to find.

At this time, Lu Xiangsheng had already sent infantry into the Yunyang mountain area to encircle and suppress the rebellion.

Why do we have to fight desperately in the outside world and suffer from hunger, while these ordinary civilians can enjoy rich food and beautiful and clean clothes?

For a moment, they all wanted to take off their clothes and break into the restaurants on both sides to eat and drink.

Gao Yingxiang had no other choice but to lead his troops westward. In March, he ran back to the border between Henan and Shaanxi, intending to enter Shaanxi for rest and recuperation.

Naturally, glass and cement had already been manufactured.

After much deliberation, Gao Yingxiang decided to go north to launch another surprise attack on Zhongdu Fengyang, on the one hand to obtain some supplies to make up for the losses, and on the other hand to boost morale.

Zhu Datian had no sense of the overall situation. He was ordered to garrison Fengyang, so he only focused on defending Fengyang and protecting the Fengyang Imperial Mausoleum. He had no intention of taking the opportunity to send troops to encircle and kill the rebels together with Lu Xiangsheng.

They were afraid that when they sent troops to pursue, Gao Yingxiang and other rebels would take advantage of the situation and sneak in.

You know, Shaanxi was the first province occupied by the dynasty. Five or six years have passed since then, so it was naturally the first to develop.

However, Chongzhen at that time had not yet fully recovered, and had no way to split the golden dragon of national destiny again.

Because it is evolved from the souls of soldiers who died in battle, it can also be called a fighting soul, and it will continue to repeat the fighting state of its lifetime.

And the Manchuanli that Gao Yingxiang was waiting to enter was such a city full of modern atmosphere.

Some soldiers who followed Gao Yingxiang and others into the city couldn't help but cast envious and jealous glances.

Although he had also condensed some spiritual strength in the process of reading and practicing calligraphy in the past.

However, this is not without any disadvantages.

At the same time, looking at the golden dragon of national destiny above the capital, Chongzhen's eyes flashed, and his heart began to stir again.

Especially for street-facing buildings, in order to gain more building space, they are basically three-story buildings.

After discovering the civilians, these illusory soldiers would turn around and chase them.

Looking at everyone's performance, Zhao Zesheng, the magistrate of Manchuanli who was in contact with them, couldn't help but smile even more, with a feeling of pride filling his chest.

They had no choice but to give up the plan of crossing the river, lift the siege of Quanjiao, and head north again to begin besieging Chuzhou Prefecture.

However, most of these three-story buildings are still in the Chinese architectural style, not the kind of buildings used in later generations.

At this point, most of Gao Yingxiang's elite troops and extraordinary warriors had been lost, their combat effectiveness had been greatly reduced, and Zhang Xianzhong was also seriously injured.

And he has more than 20,000 men under his command.

Because the Guanning Cavalry was not well-suited to fighting in mountainous areas and could not enter, this allowed Gao Yingxiang to catch his breath.

In Henan, he successively captured states and counties, and even threatened the provincial capital Kaifeng.

Moreover, the clothes they wore, although not all gorgeous new clothes, were at least clean and tidy, not looking like those of ordinary people at all. They were in no way inferior to some of the dignitaries and wealthy businessmen in the past.

In fact, if Manchuanli was not on the border of Shaanxi, what Gao Yingxiang and others saw would not be an ancient city, but a series of houses without city walls.

Gao Yingxiang fled westward into the Yunyang mountain area.

But isn't it too much of an honor to ask him to deal with those ghosts?

In the city, there are wide and flat streets, with rows of three-story buildings with cement brick and tile structures and bright windows on both sides of the roads.

In the following days, the air around was filled with a bloody aura. Within a few miles, all the birds, beasts and insects were silent. From then on, when the common people passed by, they could vaguely hear the sounds of shouting and killing.

Occasionally, you can even see some imaginary soldiers fighting.

After that, many buildings began to use reinforced concrete structures, which were not only stronger but also faster to build.

Lu Xiangsheng commanded the Ming army in hot pursuit, all the way from the east of Chuzhou city to the foot of Guanshan in the northwest, killing people everywhere and leaving rivers of blood.

Upon hearing the news, Lu Xiangsheng stamped his feet in anxiety, but there was nothing he could do.

However, what he did not expect was that the Ming army was well prepared this time.

Especially in steel manufacturing, technological breakthroughs in steam machine tools made mass production of steel bars possible.

Originally, he was ready to take action when Zhang Xianzhong captured the Zhongdu Fengyang and burned down the Zhu family's ancestral tomb.

Well, it seems that the Ming army is well prepared, so let’s not fight.

He really didn't want to tear his soul apart again unless it was absolutely necessary.

On the other hand, after the Battle of Chuzhou, the main force of the rebel army lost more than half of its troops and its morale was severely damaged.

In less than ten days, the 600 shi of grain they had looted was completely eaten up.

For a moment, he almost thought he was back in modern times.

In addition to these, there are many shops, stalls and vendors on both sides of the non-main streets. The dazzling array of goods dazzled Gao Yingxiang and others, and they wished they could buy them all.

However, the energy of heaven and earth outside the territory of the People's Salvation Army is five times thinner than that in the territory of the People's Salvation Army.

Cement is basically used in road construction, building construction, etc. in the territory of the People's Salvation Army.

And now, he has finally recovered a little and can once again withstand the division of his clones.

In addition to the wide and flat streets and rows of houses, there are also the people living in the city. Everyone has a smile on their face and a rosy complexion. It is obvious that they have no worries about food and clothing.

Faced with Lu Xiangsheng's order, Chuzhou prefect Zhong Daonan could not help but be dumbfounded.

However, Gao Yingxiang and others were fortunate.

Thanks to Zhang Xianzhong's brutality, the army and civilians of Chuzhou fought desperately and managed to hold on until the eighth day of the first lunar month.

Therefore, he has never been clear about what the consequences would be if he used the Golden Dragon of National Destiny to attack.

At this moment, the rebel army was almost in a desperate situation, with Lu Xiangsheng's army pursuing behind and Zhu Datian blocking in front.

It can be said that the corpses piled up to fill the ditches and trenches, and the Chu River stopped flowing.

Lu Xiangsheng personally led three hundred family servants in the center and commanded the troops to charge forward.

Zhang Xianzhong fled eastward and hid in the Tongbai Mountains.

Regardless of whether you can research it or not, just research it first.

Naturally, Lu Xiangsheng had also heard about the situation on the battlefield.

I'm afraid it won't be long before they can directly harm humans.

In the end, it was Gao Yingxiang, Zhang Xianzhong and others who led their personal troops to break out under the cover of night and barely escaped the pursuit.

After entering Shaanxi, Gao Yingxiang and others almost suspected that they had entered another world.

As for what happens afterwards, we’ll talk about it later.

Just when the city was about to be breached, the army led by Lu Xiangsheng finally arrived at Wuli Bridge east of Chuzhou City.

Previously, he wanted to use the power of the Golden Dragon of National Destiny to attack Datong and Xuanfu, but was swallowed by the incarnation of the Golden Dragon of National Destiny of the dynasty.

The Grand Canal Governor Zhu Datian personally led more than 10,000 Ming troops to garrison Fengyang. Gao Yingxiang took a look.

Gao Yingxiang naturally agreed to this.

In February, Lu Xiangsheng's army finally caught up with Gao Yingxiang again in Zhuxian Town, south of Kaifeng.

Obviously, they are just like the ghosts in the territory of the People's Salvation Army. They are also the souls of dead people, integrating the spiritual power of the people and the evolution of the energy of the surrounding heaven and earth.

In fact, the manufacturing of glass and cement is much simpler than the manufacturing of steel and guns.

However, thinking of the pain of splitting the clone and tearing the soul apart, he hesitated again.

Therefore, he watched helplessly as the rebel army headed westward through Huaiyuan to Suzhou, then to Xiaoxian, and finally back to Henan.

In the end, the rebel army led by Gao Yingxiang and others could no longer hold on and began to be defeated.

When Wang Chao entered these streets for the first time, he couldn't help but be dazed for a moment.

Now, he hopes to be able to find a safe place and have a good rest for some time.

Lu Xiangsheng pursued them relentlessly and finally caught up with Gao Yingxiang and other rebels at Qiding Mountain in Nanyang, and inflicted another crushing defeat on them.

In the end, Lu Xiangsheng could only continue to chase in frustration.

After receiving the news, Wang Chao pondered for a moment and finally agreed.

This fierce battle lasted from dawn till dusk, with corpses piled up like mountains and blood flowing like rivers. The iron-blooded murderous aura that soared into the sky intertwined together, dyeing the entire battlefield bloody.

Faced with Lu Xiangsheng's relentless pursuit, the two men discussed it and finally decided to split up and escape.

At this time, after Gao Yingxiang suffered a disastrous defeat in Chuzhou, he relied on the title of King Chuang to gain many more rebels along the way. In addition, with the help of the common people, his strength had recovered to some extent.

Well, as glass and cement are essential for time travelers, they were distributed together with the manufacturing of steel, guns, etc. when Wang Chao established the Weapon Manufacturing Department in the first day of the new year.

However, Wang Chao also had a requirement, which was that he was not allowed to stay in Shaanxi for a long time.

The people coming and going were all wearing ancient costumes from the Ming Dynasty.

In the end, Gao Yingxiang didn't even dare to fight, and just turned around and headed west.

Often after chasing for a while and the people escape, they will collapse suddenly, then regroup and reappear on a distant battlefield to continue fighting as before.

Zu Kuan and his three thousand Guanning cavalry took the lead and rushed to the front of the entire army.

After a great battle, Gao Yingxiang was defeated again without any suspense, and his entire army retreated towards Nanyang.

However, those illusory soldiers seemed to be subject to some kind of restrictions and could not really move away.

Finally, he decided to wait.

They traveled day and night, and on the first day of the Lunar New Year, they rushed from Henan to Fengyang, the Zhongdu, and mobilized troops from all directions to carry out a encirclement and suppression operation.

When Gao Yingxiang and Zhang Xianzhong saw that the Ming army reinforcements had arrived, Nanjing also stepped up its vigilance.

However, he had no choice but to obey the order from Lu Xiangsheng, the governor of four provinces, and began to send people to investigate.

Even after Gao Yingxiang fled to Yunyang and captured Zhushan County, he only managed to obtain 600 dan of grain after scraping the ground for three feet.

However, this was the critical moment to suppress the rebels, so he didn't have much time to pay attention to it. He just asked the prefect of Chuzhou Prefecture to handle it and then turned to chase the rebels.

This is the result of their years of hard work under the leadership of the king.

For ordinary people outside, it is not an exaggeration to say that this place is a paradise.
