The Black Iron Fortress is a majestic military fortress in the western part of Kalei Province. It was a defensive facility built by the emperor in the Far Eastern Dynasty to guard against the attack of the barbarians in the western region.

However, as the territory of the later dynasty continued to expand westward, the barbarians had been driven thousands of miles away to the west of the wild city, and this majestic fortress lost its original function and became a prosperous city in the province of Kalei. City.

The Far Eastern Dynasty went through 300 years of ups and downs. In [-] AD, with the death of Emperor Long Han, Wang Jing fell into the control of the aristocratic family and completely existed in name only. Various conflicts accumulated in the Far Eastern Dynasty broke out concentratedly. The region was engulfed in flames of war.

As wars broke out within the dynasty, the solid and majestic Black Iron Fortress regained the favor of all forces. The Northern Army occupied and sent two banner regiments to guard the Black Iron Fortress, trying to hold the throat leading to the western region, but the Northern Army mostly cavalry , not good at defending the city.

After several months of fierce fighting, the Black Iron Fortress changed hands several times, and finally fell into the hands of the rising Red Turban Army. Because of its majesty and solidity, the Black Iron Fortress became the home of the Red Turban Army.

After more than a year of rapid development, the Red Turban Army's forces have rapidly expanded like a snowball. In addition to the nearly one million Red Scarf soldiers under the command of the Four Kings of the South, East, North and North, the chief leader Liu Wencai proclaimed himself the King of Heaven and has nearly 60 soldiers. Thousands of red scarf soldiers occupy the four provinces and are the most powerful.

The strength of the Red Scarf Army is expanding rapidly, and the ambitions of the original leaders are also rapidly expanding. The king of heaven Liu Wencai even has the ambition to become emperor. Now the Red Scarf Army alone has occupied fifteen provinces in the hinterland of the Far Eastern Dynasty. Eight, in the face of a very good situation, Liu Wencai prepared to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor under the encouragement of a group of staff.

After the news of Liu Wencai's proclaiming the emperor spread, all the departments of the Red Scarf Army rejoiced, and the leaders of all sizes were even more excited. If they proclaim the emperor and found the country, they will all become heroes of the founding of the country, and there will be innumerable wealth and wealth , This is the temptation that all leaders cannot resist.

The time for Liu Wencai to proclaim himself emperor was selected in the middle of April in [-], and in March, the whole Black Iron Fortress had already started to become lively. Gathering the black iron fortress, ready to get a half-time official.

The black iron fortress was filled with lights and festoons, and it was very lively. The red ribbons were hung, the loess paved the road, and the residential area in the north of the fortress was completely demolished. .

Inside the resplendent and resplendent palace that had been built, the former imperial tailor of the Far Eastern Dynasty was trying on Liu Wencai's dragon robe. Looking at his burly body in the bronze mirror, Liu Wencai showed a satisfied smile on his face.

At the beginning, Liu Wencai raised troops to rebel against the Far Eastern Dynasty, but he could not survive, but what he did not expect was that in just one year, his power would grow to be so powerful, with hundreds of thousands of troops under his command, and the Red Scarf Army The four kings also respect themselves as masters.

"Your Highness, the dragon robe His Highness wears is very heroic." The imperial tailor flattered Liu Wencai who was wearing the dragon robe.

As the imperial tailor of the court of the Far Eastern Dynasty, he escaped during the turmoil in Wangjing, and now he has become the imperial tailor of the Red Scarf Army Liu Wencai. He is tactful and knows what to say and what to do.

Liu Wencai was really happy when he heard the words of the imperial tailor. He turned his head and asked, "How is it compared to the emperor in Wang Jing?"

The imperial tailor replied obsequiously: "Your Highness is the real Dragon Emperor, Wang Jing is just a monster, how can he compare with you, Your Highness?"

"Hahaha," Liu Wencai laughed after hearing this.Pointing to the imperial tailor, he said, "You still can talk."

Although Liu Wencai knew that the imperial tailor was lying, he still couldn't hide his joy. He turned around the bronze mirror a few times, and the more he looked at it, the happier he became. He said to the imperial tailor: "The dragon robe is well done. Five hundred gold coins for you."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your reward—" the imperial tailor hurriedly knelt down on the ground happily, kowtowing to thank him.

"What did you call me just now?" Liu Wencai was taken aback, looking at the imperial tailor and asking.

"I call you Your Majesty." The royal tailor replied respectfully.

Liu Wencai looked at the imperial tailor more and more pleasing to the eye, and his Majesty directly satisfied his heart greatly, he smiled and asked the tailor to stand up: "Seeing that you are so smart, you will be my chief servant from now on. "

"My humble minister, thank you Lord Long En!" After hearing this, the royal tailor blushed with excitement, kowtowed and knocked the floor loudly. The celebrity, but the status is not low.

At the beginning, the chief servant of the emperor in the Far East Dynasty had the right to decide the life and death of the first-rank officials. It can be said that he was very powerful, but now the imperial tailor has become Liu Wencai's celebrity. of.

"Go on, and prepare a few more sets of clothes." Liu Wencai waved to the excited tailor with a smile, and he was still admiring his appearance in the dragon robe in front of the bronze mirror.

"His Royal Highness, the commander of the guards is here to see you." At this moment, a guard came in outside the door to report to Liu Wencai.

Liu Wencai said without turning his head, "Let him in."

The commander of the bodyguards is Liu Wencai's confidant, commanding [-] bodyguards and responsible for protecting Liu Wencai's safety. He has a high position and authority, but at the moment he looks flustered.

"You are also the commander of tens of thousands of people now, and you are still flustered in how you do things. Wouldn't it be a joke for outsiders to see me?" Seeing the panicked guard commander He Yan, Liu Wencai has not waited for the other party to speak. He was the first to blame.

The commander of the guards, He Yan, saw Liu Wencai in a dragon robe, and hurriedly claimed that it was true. He had to say that Liu Wencai was really dignified after wearing the dragon robe. This is the so-called man depends on clothes and horses.

"Tell me, what's the matter." Liu Wencai returned to his seat, brought a cup of tea to his mouth, and asked slowly.

He Yan hurriedly took a step forward and said, "His Royal Highness, something serious has happened. His Royal Highness Bei Wang's army of more than 30 people has been wiped out!"

"What?!" Hearing this, Liu Wencai was so startled that the cup fell to the ground and shattered with a bang. He stood up and stared at He Yan, the commander of the guards, and said, "Where did you get the news, Wu Tian?" How could Ce's 35 troops be wiped out for no reason?"

He Yan replied in a low voice: "The general is absolutely sure that His Highness the King of the North is in the minister's mansion. He told the minister himself."

After getting He Yan's confirmation, Liu Wencai sat back down, and then he said again: "Why didn't he come to see me, how could his army of more than 30 people be wiped out! Go and call him!" Come! I will ask him myself."

Now that Liu Wencai is about to proclaim himself emperor, the failure of the Northern King Wu Tiance will affect the strength of the Red Turban Army. Liu Wencai has scolded Wu Tiance bloody in his heart.

Soon the North King Wu Tiance, who fled back to the Black Iron Fortress with disheveled hair, was brought to Liu Wencai's palace. Looking at Wu Tiance, who was covered in tattered clothes and smelled bad, Liu Wencai could hardly recognize that it was two months ago. The North King of the Red Turban Army who was so energetic to conquer Nanchuan Province.

Wu Tiance was annihilated by the army led by Lin Chuan in Luoshui River. He escaped with only a few riders. My own self, sad from the heart, fell to the ground and cried loudly for a while.

Liu Wencai was very angry at Wu Tiance's defeat at first, but when he saw Wu Tiance, who was in a mess with snot and tears, the anger in his heart gradually subsided a lot. After all, he was a brother who came out of fighting the enemy side by side. He stepped forward to help Wu Tiance up.

"If you have any grievances, tell me, and I will make the decision for you." Liu Wencai comforted.

Hearing this, Wu Tiance burst into tears, lamenting his unlucky luck, and he wiped away his tears after a long time, telling the story of his failure in detail.

"I, the Red Turban Army, have written down the blood account of the Nanchuan Army!" After hearing this, Liu Wencai's face turned livid.

"His Royal Highness, you must avenge those brothers who died." Wu Tiance begged.

Liu Wencai said comfortingly, "You go down first and take a good rest. This matter is important. Let me discuss it with the commanders, but don't worry, this bloody account still needs blood to be tasted."

After hearing this, Wu Tiance resigned and left. Now he has no soldiers and no rights and can do nothing, so he can only listen to the words of Heavenly King Liu Wencai and wait for news.
