Ming Dynasty: Evolution from snake to national guardian beast

Chapter 145 I miss you so much

"It can be said that one knows astronomy from the top, geography from the bottom, knows human harmony from the middle, understands yin and yang, understands the Eight Diagrams, knows the Qimen, knows Dunjia, can strategize, and win a victory thousands of miles away."

"It was known five hundred years before and five hundred years later. There seems to be nothing in the world that Mr. Bai doesn't know."

"It was precisely because of Mr. Bai that my father was able to successfully defeat the emperor and advance into Yingtian City."

Hearing what Zhu Gaochi said about Bai Chu being so powerful, Xie Jin immediately became unhappy. How could there be such a person in this world?

Even the reincarnation of Zhuge Liang or Liu Bowen of this dynasty are not so mysterious.

"Your Highness, is this a bit exaggerated?"

Xie Jin's words resonated with those around him, and Yang Rong and Yang Pu nodded in agreement.

If Bai Chu is really so powerful, then is he still a human?

"It's no exaggeration at all. It can even be said that Mr. Bai is far beyond these."

This sentence was said by Yang Shiqi, but this sentence made everyone in the venue feel numb.

Because everyone who works with Yang Shiqi knows that he is an honest person and never exaggerates.

And now Yang Shiqi's evaluation of Bai Chu made everyone think of how terrifying Bai Chu was.

Zhu Gaochi's next sentence directly concluded the debate about Bai Chu:

"You guys, including Yang Shiqi, were recommended by Mr. Bai to my father."

"Mr. Bai has never seen you before, but he is full of praise for your abilities."

"Not only that, Mr. Bai looked so young ten years ago. Now ten years have passed, but his appearance has not changed at all."

There was a gasp of air-conditioning in the venue. The amount of information contained in Zhu Gaochi's words was so great that they felt that their hearts could not bear it.

On the grassland.

Mahamu convened all the tribes in the grassland to hold the Hulitai Conference on the banks of the Onan River.

This conference was specially held by the Mongolian tribes to elect the Great Khan. It was also one of the most solemn conferences in the Mongolian grassland.

Since his rise in the first year of Jianwen, Mahamu has been leading the Oara tribes to fight against the Tatar tribes for ten years.

Not long ago, Mahamu personally led an army to attack the Mongolian Khan Benyasili and Arutai Tai.

Division, occupied the Helin area, and then pursued the two men to the Onan River area.

Helin can be said to be the base camp of the Tatars, equivalent to the Tatar Dragon City Royal Court in the Mobei grassland.

The Emperor of the Yuan Dynasty fled here after Xu Da and Chang Yuchun escaped from the Yuan Dynasty.

Later, even during Zhu Yuanzhang's repeated Northern Expeditions, once the Yuan army was defeated, they would flee here to recuperate and lick their wounds, and then regroup a few years later and go south again.

It is as if this is the absolute safe zone for the Tatar Khan. As soon as they reach here, the Ming army will give up the pursuit.

However, there is nothing that can be done about it. Mobei is full of Gobi desert and the terrain is extremely complex. Once pursued in depth, it is very likely that they will lose their direction and be trapped and die in the Hanbei desert.

Helin is located deep in Mobei. If the Ming army wants to reach here, just the logistics supply is a big difficulty.

This place has unusual significance to the Tatar tribe.

However, this time they were defeated, which caused the Tatars to lose the power of the Mobei grassland and no longer be able to compete with Mahamu.

Mahamu took the opportunity to convene the Hulitai Conference at the Onan River, in order to confirm his position as the overlord of the grassland, and then go south to have a showdown with the Ming army. ?Linfen, Shanxi.

A long, blood-red python was winding its way along the loess road in Shanxi, stretching for dozens of miles in front and back. The smoke and dust it stirred up covered the sky and the sun with a majestic momentum. This is none other than Qiu Fu, Duke Qi of the Ming Dynasty, and the 100,000 soldiers of the Ming Dynasty he led.

Since accepting Zhu Di's commission at Yingtian Mansion, Qiu Fu has led the Ming army, marching day and night, rapidly advancing towards Datong at the foot of the mountain.

After all, this was the first time in ten years that Qiu Fu had commanded such a large-scale operation.

Since the Battle of Jingnan, the world has been in peace for a long time.

As veterans who followed Zhu Di in the army, Zhu Di naturally did not treat them badly. He and Zhang Yu and Zhu Neng were all made marquises.

The title of Duke Qi is even higher than that of Zhu Neng. He has an annual salary of five thousand dan and a first-class official position. He can enter the court without paying homage and rest with the country.

Enjoying all the wealth and honor in the world, Qiu Fudu felt that his body was slowly starting to get rusty.

It can be said that Qiu Fu was very lucky to follow Zhu Di in raising troops to quell Jing Nan, because risks are directly proportional to rewards. Now that Jing Nan is successful, Qiu Fu is in a very popular position and can also protect his descendants.

But Qiu Fu, Zhu Neng and others are also unfortunate.

As fierce generals on the battlefield, Qiu Fu, Zhang Yu and others, after following Zhu Di into the capital, have always been popular and have never been on the battlefield again.

I have to say that this is the tragedy of the general.

Now, as if Qiu Fu had awakened the consciousness of the military general's bloodline, he led the Ming army on a rapid march north, vowing to reach Datong as soon as possible.

Then he entered the grassland and showed off his former glory.

Under Zhu Neng's urging, although the Ming army was elite, their faces couldn't help but look slightly tired.

The march was already extremely difficult, not to mention that Qiu Fu, who was eager for quick success and quick gain, had already violated a military taboo by traveling twice the same distance.

However, Qiu Fu, as a veteran on the battlefield, and had previously followed Zhu Di to conquer the northern barbarians, had no regard for the Oara outside the pass.

After all, the former master of Oara, Tatar, was no match for him, let alone Oasi?

It's just that the chickens and dogs, as soon as their own army arrives, these soldiers are all enemies who give them military glory.

Qiu Fu kept urging the army to march faster, but there was a wise man in the army, a fierce general, who rushed from the front army to the middle army to give advice to Qiu Fu.

This person is none other than the fierce general Qu Neng. Since the end of the Jingnan period, Qu Neng and his son were left in the Beijing camp by Zhu Di. Except for Qu Neng and Ping An, they were all placed in the Beijing camp.

As an enemy, Zhu Di was still very afraid of Qu Neng and his son and Ping An. Qu Neng and his son stayed in the capital camp for ten years, and Zhu Di did not treat them badly, but this ordinary life obviously could not meet the requirements of Qu Neng and his son.

The three of them often reported to Zhu Di, hoping to reach the northern border and fight against the increasingly rampant Oara, but they were all rejected by Zhu Di.

Compared with Wala, Zhu Di was more afraid of Qu Neng and his son.

However, this time during the crusade against Wa Ci, Zhu Di thought of this Ming Dynasty general, so he asked Qu Neng and his son to lead the elite troops and go north with Qiu Fu.

After all, with Qiu Fu pressing down on him, Zhu Di was not worried about Qu Neng causing any trouble.

When Qu Neng saw Qiu Fu marching in such a hurry, his soldiers were a little unable to bear it, so he had to go to the middle army and admonish Qiu Fu:

"Duke Qi, the soldiers are very tired now. Please rest for a few days so that the soldiers can rest and do business."

"Otherwise, if we enter outside the pass in this state, the general will probably be in trouble.
