Daming: Brother, there is no future for monks, let's rebel

Chapter 171 Overseas Yinzhou, God Bless Daming 【Ask monthly ticket】

"Then this road is full of vast seas, how did you find the route back?" Zhu Han asked.

"His Royal Highness, when I go to the end, I basically walk along some islands and rest while walking along the way, and it's the same when I come back!" Hu Dahai said.

Zhu Han immediately understood in his heart that Hu Dahai must have sailed from the island chain in the North Pacific!
In this case, the risk is much smaller than that of crossing the Pacific Ocean.

"Wait a minute, you just said that you asked the local savages?" Zhu Han suddenly frowned.

Hu Dahai nodded, "Yes, Your Highness, when the last general left, many savages came to harass him. After being taught a lesson, some of the more obedient ones were recruited under his command and learned some savage voices. Taught them some Mandarin!"

This news surprised Zhu Han even more!
"Where are they? I mean, where are these savages under your command?" Zhu Han asked hastily.

"His Royal Highness, he is now on the boat outside the city!" Hu Dahai said.

"How many people are there?" Zhu Han continued to ask.

"Originally there were quite a few of them, about fifty or sixty, but for some reason, these savages looked very strong, but they were extremely prone to illness. More than half of them died along the way, and now there are only five or six of them!" Hu Dahai said. When he said this, his face was full of regret and doubt.

Zhu Han is naturally very clear about the reason!
America is a closed continent!
All foreign germs are almost a catastrophe for the local savages!

Especially after close contact with soldiers of the Ming army, it is not surprising that there are [-] to [-]% of the deaths.

These few indigenous savages who survived basically belonged to the super strong individuals who survived the virus attack.

"Can these savages speak our Chinese language?" Zhu Han asked immediately.

"Your Highness, yes, the last general has taught them!" Hu Dahai said.

"Great!" Zhu Han clapped his hands excitedly, and then said to his older brother Zhu Yuanzhang, "Brother, let Hu Dahai bring these native savages here, I want to ask them myself!"

Zhu Yuanzhang also understood Zhu Han's intention, "Good!"

"Come here, pass on our imperial decree to call these native savages into the palace!"

An hour later, five black and thin indigenous savages were brought into the palace hall.

In fact, if the identities of these five indigenous savages were not known in advance, it would be difficult to tell how different they were from the Central Plains people just from their appearance.

Zhu Yuanzhang also looked puzzled when he saw the five savages.

"Hu Dahai, didn't you just say that when you were attacked, it was a group of red-skinned savages?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked.

Hu Dahai hurriedly explained: "Your Majesty, the last general encountered red skins at that time, but I found out later that they were stained red with a kind of grass root juice!"

After being captured by the Ming army, these Native Americans lived according to the Ming army's living habits. They no longer had the habit of smearing their skin, and gradually returned to their original skin color.

Zhu Han knew that these Native Americans were closely related to the Central Plains people, and they only migrated from the Great North to the New World more than 1 years ago.

After some inquiries, Zhu Han basically understood the development level of those Native Americans.

It is exactly the same as in my impression.

The indigenous civilizations on the American continent, with Central and South America being the highest, have already developed into a slave society, with their own mythological beliefs and aristocratic management models, while the indigenous civilizations in North America are much backward, at most in the late primitive society.

Because they still don't know how to use slaves to work, and if they catch captives, they will be sacrificed to death.

If you want to conquer this continent, you have to assimilate the North American natives, and then use the North American natives to conquer the native civilizations of Central and South America.

Otherwise, relying only on a small number of Ming soldiers who traveled across the ocean, at most they would copy the Spanish colonial model.

What Zhu Han wanted was more!

Conquer that piece of land faster, better and more thoroughly!
"Your official language is the best. What's your name?" Zhu Han asked a native.

Of the five, this young man seemed the smartest.

"Almighty god, my name is Shanying!"

The native savage immediately knelt down and said.

These native savages were originally very rebellious, but after being educated with sticks by the Ming army, they all became very honest and obedient.

This native savage named Shanying always answered Zhu Han's questions.

And the logic is clear, it is obviously an indigenous leading party that meets Zhu Han's requirements.

"Shanying is a good name. From now on, your surname will be Shan."

For these native savages, a name is only the first step.

It is also necessary for them to recognize from their hearts that they are Daming people, pioneers in the New World.

"I don't think there is any difference between Shanying and the others in appearance from the Central Plains people. When King Wu of Zhou destroyed the Yin merchants, I heard that a large number of Yin merchants fled to the east. Now it seems that they must have fled to this continent. Now these indigenous savages." Zhu Han said.

There has always been a consensus on the origin of Native Americans, that is, they migrated from East Asia.

Therefore, Zhu Han's statement can be said to be reasonable.

Not only the elder brother Zhu Yuanzhang could accept it, but also Hu Dahai, even Shan Ying and several other indigenous savages were convinced.

However, Hu Dahai soon had some doubts.

"Your Highness, if these savages have no writing, no copper and iron, are they really descendants of the Yin Shang? I have heard that the scholar said that Jiang Ziya used a magic whip to fight against the [-] troops of the Yin Shang for three days and three nights." What!" Hu Dahai asked.

Since the popular storytelling in the Song Dynasty, the magic-reformed storytelling scripts of various dynasties have become popular. Naturally, some archetypal themes about the list of gods of later generations are indispensable.

Therefore, even a rough military general like Hu Dahai felt that it was impossible for the descendants of the Yin and Shang Dynasties to pull their hips so low and degenerate to the level of Native Americans.

"That's right, Yin and Shang have established their country for hundreds of years, even if they fled in a hurry, there must be some learned people to pass it down. It's impossible to forget it so cleanly?" Zhu Yuanzhang, the elder brother, was also a little puzzled.

"Hey, one side supports the other side. They forget the skills of their ancestors. That's their fault. Now, I, Da Ming, can help them find their ancestors. As long as they are descendants of the Yin and Shang Dynasties, it is better than the Tianfang Cultists and Semu people in the Western Regions!" Zhu Han said indifferently.

Zhu Yuanzhang immediately understood Zhu Han's intention!

"Well, that's right! We, Ming Dynasty, teach without discrimination, say that they are the adherents of the Yin and Shang, and they are the adherents of the Yin and Shang!" Zhu Yuanzhang said in an unquestionable tone.

Although Hu Dahai is rough and bold, he is also a smart person, so he immediately understood.

Under Zhu Han's arrangement, Shan Ying and other North American aboriginal savages were quickly recognized as survivors of the Yin and Shang dynasties. Now they admire the great power of the Ming Dynasty, and traveled thousands of miles across the sea to offer soil to the Emperor of Ming Dynasty!
Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang of the Ming Dynasty naturally loved the people like his son. Knowing that these survivors living thousands of miles away were struggling, he agreed to their land donation and named the newly attached land 'Yinzhou'.

Because the news of the gold in the Yinzhou mainland has already spread, there is almost no need to make a special publicity, and many people are already eager to go to Yinzhou to show their skills.

And this was exactly what Zhu Han wanted!

A great exploration of Yinzhou mainland is brewing!

. . . . . .

Hongwu four years, July.

Xu Da, the governor of Lanzhou Xingdu of the Ming Dynasty, went to the imperial court and drove all the Oirats out of the northwest border. The Oirats lost troops and generals, but they did not break through a city in Daming.

The morale of the military and civilians throughout the Northwest has been greatly boosted!
Many people who were quite afraid of the Mongols breathed a sigh of relief.

Now that the Mongols have retreated, the people of Ming Dynasty can still take advantage of the season to complete this year's autumn harvest and autumn planting. The Ming court distributed brand new crop seeds to the people. The officials told them that as long as these seeds are planted, the whole family will not need them in the coming year. No more starving!
Morale is something that ebbs and flows.

The morale of the Daming side was high, but the Oirat Mongols' side fell to the bottom.

Not long ago, the various ministries of Oirat originally wanted to grab some food and gold and silver treasures from the Ming army, but they never thought that they would lose their soldiers and generals, but they didn't even rob them.

All the tribes are very angry. The cattle and sheep on the grassland this year are not fat enough. If they can't rob enough food, then the tribes will starve to death!

The Oirat ministries began to be dissatisfied with the leader Tuolibuhua!

The poor Tuolibuhua originally wanted to defeat the Ming army and pave the way for himself to usurp the Mongolian Khan.

But now it was a mess, and the planned Mongolian Khan could only put it down for the time being, and began to plan a new way out to calm the anger of various tribes.

Without thinking about it, Tuoli realized that he had only two options.

One is to surrender to the Great Yuan Emperor in the east and beg for some rewards to let the ministries survive the winter.

However, it is not known whether this road will have satisfactory results.

After all, the current Dayuan court lives in Mobei, and the days of being landlords are not rich.

The other way is to plunder, but the Ming army didn't dare to provoke them, and they really couldn't beat them. The rest is to plunder the East Chagatai Khanate and West Chagatai Khanate in the west.

Regardless of whether it is east or west, these two Chagatais are relatively wealthy.

Moreover, they were all taught a lesson by the Oirats not long ago, and if they went to plunder now, they would not suffer much resistance.

"Assemble all ministries, follow me and don't lose eight miles to fight grass valley!"

Under the call of Liberation Buhua, the various tribes of Oara gathered like mad dogs and headed towards the territory of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate!
The sad Eastern Chagatai Khanate never imagined that these Oirats were so careless that they had to pluck the wool from a sheep!
From Bessali to Ali Mari, from Hami to Huozhou, the richest towns in the Eastern Chagatai Khanate were looted by the Oirats like locusts.

None of the Oirats showed mercy because of the status of the Mongolian Khanate of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate!
Tuluhei Timur, the Khan of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate, led his soldiers and wives and concubines in repeated defeats, and fled to Lop Nur in the south of the desert in a hurry to escape the pursuit of the Oalas!

Mongolia, Mobei.

The fishing sea on the prairie.

The Yuan court now has 10,000+ soldiers and civilians stationed here.

In the core area of ​​Fishing Fisher Sea is the camp of Emperor Aiyou of the Great Yuan Dynasty and Empress Dowager Qi.

Wang Baobao led the elite of the Yuan army to guard the periphery.

The more peripheral places are the locations of the various tribes of the Mongolian host vassal.

According to the news from the spies in front, the Ming army is in the northwest and Beiping.Liaodong and other places gathered troops to gradually erode the Monan grassland.

Wang Baobao knew clearly that if the Ming army was allowed to gain a firm foothold in the Monan Grassland, then they would never have peace in Mobei.

Therefore, even though Wang Baobao knew that his chances of winning were not good, he decided to gather all his troops and wanted to attack the Liaodong area in the south when he was fat and strong on horses after the beginning of autumn.

This battle is not about seizing the territory of the Ming army, but to burn and destroy the land, grain and storage of the Ming army in Liaodong, so that the Ming army cannot use Liaodong as a base to attack the Yuan army in Mobei.
However, Wang Baobao's proposal was opposed by many Mongolian princes.

The Mongols' previous attacks on the Ming army were all defeated, which has frightened these Mongols.

Especially the muskets and artillery in the hands of the Ming army, and those invulnerable armors.

The scimitar and fast horse of the Mongolian cavalry can't hurt them at all.

Therefore, Wang Baobao's offensive plan this time was also disliked by everyone.

"We have nowhere to retreat. The Ming army gathered tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in Liaodong, built fortresses on the Monan grassland, and incorporated local tribes. As long as it takes three to five years, the Ming army will be able to quickly grasp the land on the grassland. In all cases, we will train a cavalry that can run for thousands of miles, and by that time, even if we hide in the deepest part of the grassland, we will be found by the Ming army!" Wang Baobao said to the crowd.

Several Mongolian vassals headed by Gesar also looked at each other at this time.

They also knew that what Wang Baobao said was true, because the Ming army would not let them go easily.

However, making these Mongolian vassals make up their minds and lead a large army to the south to actively attack the Ming army still makes them very worried.

Although Wang Baobao has the most elite Great Yuan imperial guards in his hands.

But the number of soldiers and horses in the hands of these Mongolian vassals did not lose to him at all.

After a long discussion, everyone decided to hold a meeting of the various tribes three days later to jointly decide whether to agree to the plan to send troops.

After everyone left, only Wang Baobao and his younger brother Toyin Timur were left in the big tent.

Since Alu Timur was defeated and killed by the Ming army, Tuoyin Timur became the only trusted and capable relative around Wang Baobao.

After everyone left, Tointimur also said to Wang Baobao worriedly: "Brother, if we attack the Ming army south this time, there will be many dangerous situations!"

"I heard that the Ming army has built hundreds of fortresses, large and small, in Monan, equipped with elite soldiers and generals, and has countless firearms. If our army fails to attack by force, I am afraid that it will suffer a lot of losses. After the attack is unfavorable, what will happen? Resist the pursuit of the Ming army?"

Wang Baobao frowned, got up slowly, and said to his younger brother Tuoyin Timur.

"Ever since I led the Great Yuan soldiers and horses back to the Mobei Grassland, I have always wanted to repay the late emperor's kindness and restore the Great Yuan. The vassal kings and nobles, a bunch of useless trash!"

"Great Yuan has raised all the vassal kings for a hundred years, but these vassal kings and nobles have grown into waste! As long as they exist, the strategy in my heart will not be able to be used for a day!"

"This time we are attacking Liaodong on the surface, but we are actually using the hands of the Ming army to eradicate these corrupt and degenerate burdens."

Tuoyin Timur was stunned when he heard Wang Baobao's words.
