Starting from Comprehensive Martial Arts: Bu Dao Lu

Chapter 227
Zhang Wuji: "I came to the Song Empire this time. One is to reward Fang La for his great contributions to Mingjiao; the other is to support the war between Wu and the Song Empire!"

After Zhang Wuji finished speaking, Fang La's expression changed. He was about to say something, but after thinking for a moment, he turned to look at Yin Tianzheng!
Yin Tianzheng understood what Fang La meant!Fang La had just returned to the Mingjiao, and the leader had conferred the title of Dharma King of the Mingjiao. It would indeed be inappropriate to contradict the leader at this time!
Yin Tianzheng: "Leader!"

Zhang Wuji: "Grandpa, I have something to say!"

Yin Tianzheng has a close relationship with Zhang Wuji, so naturally he doesn't have so many worries: "Master, the Wu State and the Song Empire have been fighting fiercely for several years and suffered heavy losses. Even with the full support of the Ming Cult, the Wu State will be completely exhausted in just one year at most!"

Zhang Wuji smiled and said: "Grandpa, I understand the situation of the Song Empire! However, this battle still has to be fought with the Song Empire!"

Yin Tianzheng did not expect that Zhang Wuji would give this answer, and was stunned for a moment!
Yang Xiao on the side frowned when he heard this. He was about to step forward to persuade, but was pulled back by Fan Yao!Yang Xiao turned his head and looked at Fan Yao with some confusion, but saw Fan Yao shaking his head slightly towards him.Yang Xiao and Fan Yao have been learning martial arts together since they were young. They are also known as the two immortals of Xiaoyao, so they have a very good relationship.Seeing Fan Yao's behavior, Yang Xiao immediately understood that the leader's behavior must have a reason that he didn't know.The steps we took were quietly withdrawn!
There were all trustworthy senior officials of the Ming Cult in the palace. Seeing everyone's doubts, Zhang Wuji didn't even try to riddle him!

Zhang Wuji pointed to Zhu Jixi beside him and said: "I would like to introduce to you, this is the Crown Prince of Jin of the Ming Empire; in addition, the Crown Prince of Jin is also a student of King Wenzong Zhao of the Ming Empire."

Seeing Zhang Wuji mentioning himself, Zhu Jixi also stood up and clasped his fists towards the senior Mingjiao officials in the hall and said, "Zhu Jixi has met you all."

Although many high-level officials of Mingjiao are not familiar with Zhu Jixi, it seems that the prince of Jin Dynasty is unusual for his leader to introduce him so solemnly!

The prince of Jin Dynasty greeted everyone, but everyone dared to be negligent and hurriedly returned the greetings.

Zhang Wuji said with a smile: "I am always paying attention to the situation in the Song Empire! I also understand the decline of the Wu State; but the Wu State must fight the Song Empire." Zhang Wuji said, While looking at the people in the hall, he saw that they were all the same, and then he continued: "The Ming Empire has been deployed in the Song Empire for many years. In the spring of next year, several armies of the Ming Empire will make a northern expedition; as long as Wu State can Wait until next year, when the Ming Empire's army moves north, we can attack from both inside and outside to completely eliminate this army that is encircling and suppressing Wu!"

"So, the Mingjiao cannot retreat, and neither can the Wu State! If we retreat now, our achievements will be in vain!"

"My brother wrote a letter a few days ago, asking Mingjiao to hold on for a while. Next year, Mingjiao can cooperate with the Northern Expedition army to attack cities in various parts of the Song Empire."

Zhang Wuji's words were like an earth-shattering shock, making all the high-ranking officials of the Ming Cult in the hall feel numb!
Previously, the Mingjiao strongly supported Fang La. Although Zhang Wuji did not say it explicitly, the top management of the Mingjiao, including Fang La, had speculations in their minds.To be able to make the leader decide to support Fang La regardless of the cost, there must be something behind this that the Ming Empire was doing!

However, these Mingjiao high-level conjectures are the same as what Zhang Wuji learned from the Ming Empire!

Zhu Qi originally asked the Mingjiao to send troops in the name of delaying the development of the Song Dynasty Empire!

Now, the Ming Empire actually wants to swallow up the Song Empire!

A few days ago, when Zhang Wuji received a letter from Emperor Hongwu, he couldn't calm down for a long time!

Although the Song Empire's national power has declined somewhat, it is still a great empire in China!The Ming Empire actually wanted to swallow it up in one gulp. This kind of heroism and courage was truly terrifying!

It was precisely because he knew the true intention of the Ming Empire that Zhang Wuji hurriedly came to the Song Empire from Guangmingding!

"Master, the Ming Empire wants to engulf the Song Empire?" "The Ming Empire wants to make a northern expedition in the spring?"

"Since the Ming Empire is on its Northern Expedition, our Ming Cult must show its face!"

"Not bad! Let alone half a year, our Mingjiao can survive even one year!"

……

I don't know how long it took, but the senior officials of Mingjiao who had finally recovered started to talk about it.

Zhang Wuji waved his hands to everyone and stopped everyone's discussion!

"This Northern Expedition, the Ming Empire has made up its mind and is extremely well prepared." As he spoke, Zhang Wuji looked at Zhu Jixi and said, "You may not know that the Crown Prince of Jin has been in charge of the Song Empire for several years. With the formation of the Rebel Alliance, the five major bandits The 32nd anti-king provocation was all the work of the Crown Prince of Jin; I came to the Song Empire this time to cooperate with the Crown Prince of Jin!"

After Zhang Wuji finished speaking, all the senior officials of Mingjiao looked at Zhu Jixi with horror on their faces!
Fang La's heart was full of mixed emotions, and he couldn't help but think, is there really a real dragon emperor in the world?
Back then, Emperor Hongwu rose like a comet. Fang La admired Emperor Hongwu very much and did not dare to compare him with him!But now, even Emperor Hongwu's grandson, the crown prince of Jin who is no more than ten years old, is toying with himself in the applause.This is really hard for Fang La to accept!I really think highly of myself!
Many high-level officials of Mingjiao also have the same thoughts as Fang La!
These high-level officials of Mingjiao have direct forces under their command.For example; Yin Tianzheng's Tianying Sect.They are by no means mere martial arts warriors.

But if they were allowed to run and plan the Song Empire, that would be absolutely impossible!
Not to mention them, even the leader Wuji and the self-proclaimed two immortals Yang Xiao and Fan Yao probably don't have the means and mentality.Taking the lead in planning an empire is indeed beyond the imagination of Mingjiao!
Zhu Jixi, who has been practicing for several years, is no longer what he used to be.

Looking at the stunned Mingjiao senior officials in the palace, Zhu Jixi understood what they were thinking!
"Everyone, the Ming Empire has been planning for the Song Empire for a long time, and now the time has come; the empire has decided to divide the Northern Expedition army into three armies to go north; one way to defend the grasslands, one way to seize the Song Dynasty imperial capital, and one way to sweep the local cities. Mingjiao's plan this time The mission is to cooperate with the army to sweep through local states and counties.”

"Grandpa Huang often praised Mingjiao as the mainstay of the Ming Empire. That's why the empire entrusted Mingjiao with such an important task!"

"Please, everyone!"

Zhu Jixi once again made it clear to everyone the determination of the Ming Empire's Northern Expedition and the mission of the Ming Cult.

Of course, it was impossible for Zhu Jixi to tell everyone in the Ming Cult about the existence of the Martial Arts Alliance and the overall planning of the Ming Empire.

The current Martial Arts Alliance, after receiving the support of the Ming Empire, the Qinglong Society, the Vermillion Bird Tower, and the Qilin Valley, have begun to spread their influence to the entire Chinese continent.

The future Martial Arts Alliance will be the vanguard of the expansion of the Ming Empire, so the Ming Empire will not expose the existence of the Martial Arts Alliance unless it is absolutely necessary.

During the Northern Expedition of the Ming Empire, all the top leaders of the Ming Cult were smiling and happy to see the success.

The Mingjiao knew the strength of the Ming Empire very well, and the Song Empire was definitely no match for the Ming Empire!

What's more, the Mingjiao has always been close to the Ming Empire. Although the Mingjiao did not accept the rewards from the Ming Empire, its disciples had a lot of benefits in the Ming Empire!
