Chapter 558
The issue of the grassland has always plagued the Central Plains dynasty. No matter what dynasty it is, you can beat the grassland people in the early days of the founding of the country and bow your head and bow your head, but you will never be able to completely surrender the grassland people, even hindering their ability to reproduce.

When the Central Plains Dynasty gradually weakened and started to go downhill, the prairie people would become life-threatening ghosts and began to wander around you non-stop. When you find the right opportunity, they will slash you with a knife. Although they can't kill you at all, they can make you Bleeding incessantly.

Some people say that the grassland peoples harassed and invaded the Central Plains because of their killing nature, they are barbaric and uncivilized, but in fact, Wang Xuan still believes that this is caused by the natural environment.

The living environment on the grassland is too harsh. Whenever the long winter arrives, what the snow and the howling north bring is never romance, but more death.

Maybe the southerners think the world covered in silver is a kind of beauty, but that's because they don't live here. For the prairie people, it's called white disaster.

The reason why it is called the white disaster is that it will freeze to death a large number of prairie people who lack heating equipment and ability, as well as the cattle and sheep that countless prairie people depend on for survival. In order to resist the white disaster, the prairie people launch an invasion war every winter , Looting more food and supplies to ensure that you and your family can survive this winter safely.

Of course, even if you can't loot, it's good to have a group of people die. Even if there are not many supplies, but there are fewer people. Relatively speaking, the living people have more hope of survival.

It sounds cruel, but it is true, the barren grassland cannot feed so many people.

"Teacher, what do we need to do?" Zhu Youxiao was the most excited, and even forgot to raise his hand that was usually required.

Unexpectedly, Wang Xuan didn't get angry, but replied with a smile: "The whole thing is almost divided into several steps, the first of course is to attack by force."

"If you want to completely rule the grassland and eradicate the threat from the grassland, the first thing to do is to kill Lin Danhan!"

"So going out is the first step. After eliminating the grassland dignitaries headed by Lin Danhan, we will start a new round of construction on the grassland."

"In fact, the grassland is not barren, it's just that the grassland people have no technology and the ability to develop it. There are a lot of mineral deposits under the grassland, such as coal. Just to support the construction of the grassland, we still need to lay roads and cement first. , can pave the road to make the traffic smooth, and can quickly complete the construction of houses. With convenient transportation, the wealth created by animal husbandry alone can feed many, many people."

"The current lifestyle and breeding methods of grassland people are too backward. After effective improvement, the same large grassland can support three times as many cattle and sheep as it does now, and the domestic demand for cattle and sheep is also increasing day by day, but With enough benefits, we Han people will be able to live in the grasslands, and there will be no such thing as grassland people. Of course, construction is not a problem, and what is needed now is to eliminate Lin Danhan."

"Teacher, I am willing to personally lead the troops to the grassland to eliminate Lin Danhan." Zhu Youxiao's face flushed. For a 20-year-old passionate boy, it has always been his dream to follow in the footsteps of his predecessors. A Ming emperor's dream.

No marriage, no compensation, no cede land, no tribute, the emperor guards the gate, and the king dies!
In any case, Emperor Ming did this. In the entire history of China, Emperor Ming can be regarded as the most upright emperor.

Fortunately, there are no court ministers here, otherwise I am afraid that I will kneel on the ground again now. What kind of civil fortress is not far from the past, what kind of gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, and what kind of emperor is in the world. Howling and using various seemingly reasonable reasons to prevent the emperor from conquering himself.

But now sitting here are a group of passionate young people on par with Zhu Youxiao. During the three years following Wang Xuan, they have learned a lot, learned the ways of the world, and learned how to bend and stretch, but they have not lost this talent. Bloody, I have always firmly believed that meeting a narrow road, life and death are indifferent, look at you, and do it if you don't accept it.

"Teacher, I'm going too, take me one!"

"Take me one!"

"+1"

"+365"

"Hahaha, okay, let's all go." Wang Xuan smiled. He didn't think it was too difficult to kill Lin Dan Khan. In fact, there is no comparison between the current Tatars and Daming. Manpower, equipment, mobilization ability, Morale and so on are in a state of crushing in all aspects, and Wang Xuan can't see the possibility of defeat at all.

The reason why they haven't made a move is that the timing is not ripe enough. Now that the first phase of the construction of Daming North has been basically completed. In the past three years, a large number of infrastructure talents have been trained, and some of them can be allocated to start construction on the Mongolian grassland.

"Following the fate of the heavens, the emperor said:... Feng Mu Guogong guards the southwestern border of Ming Dynasty, promotes farming, encourages farming and mulberry, respects virtuous people to promote schools, spreads Central Plains culture, stabilizes the frontier, and has made great achievements. Specially named Mu Qiyuan as the king of southern Myanmar The fiefdom in southern Myanmar, all laws, set by yourself..."

This imperial decree was the first of its kind for princes in the early days of the founding of the country. Immediately afterwards, successive imperial decrees were issued. Basically, the nobles conferred by the two emperors Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di in the southern region were conferred territories in the south, but the size is far and near. That's all, the southernmost point has reached both sides of the Straits of Malacca.

At the same time, Wang Xuan completely opened up a series of relevant technical materials such as cement factories, steel factories, and textile factories to support these honorable families in exploring overseas territories. After all, Wang Xuan's goal is not to make a lot of money. There is no ability to supply the consumption of these basic materials all over the world.

Just when the entire Ming Dynasty focused its attention on yet another great development in the south, a cavalry team of ten thousand people disappeared from the capital quietly, along with the emperor and more than 300 noble children.

It was predictable that there was another flurry of chaos in the court, and Wei Zhongxian was once again blocked in the palace. This time he has experience, after all, no matter what it is, just get used to it.

When it was learned that Wang Xuan led people to the grassland to kill Lin Danhan, many senior officials in the court were so frightened that they didn't come up and passed out. They were Tatars and only brought 1 people. Without any logistical supplies, dare to go deep into the prairie alone, and it is the emperor's own conquest, isn't it the same as sending to death!

Regarding these, in the heart of the veteran who has lived on the edge of the grassland people all his life, sending troops to the grassland is a taboo that cannot be violated. There is no life or death, and it is absolutely impossible to win.

It's not that they don't know that Ming Dynasty has developed rapidly in the past few years, and its national power is booming day by day. It's impossible for them to change their minds and get rid of their fear of grasslands.

So, quite simply, Wang Xuan didn't reveal any news, and led his troops away. Moreover, the military and government are separated now, which is not their responsibility.

Of course, it's not like there are people in the court who understand, knowing that since Wang Xuan dared to make a move, he is absolutely sure, but his own "Qi Lin'er" followed the army and made a sound. Well, if something happens, they will be very distressed.

Yes, these dandies from back then have now become the "unicorns" of various families, not to mention being educated by Wang Xuan in the past three years, and having a classmate friendship with the emperor, after inheriting the family business in the future, they will definitely flourish. Even if he is the second son, he cannot inherit the title or family business, and with Wang Xuan and the emperor as his two major backers, he may not be able to carve out a wider world.

Now that we are going to fight on the grassland, it is no wonder that the families are worried.

All the way out of the Great Wall and into the grassland, Wang Xuan took out a large map and threw it to Zhu Youxiao, so that the group of people could study it by themselves. He came here to escort him, and at the same time, to appreciate the scenery of the grassland. It was Zhu Youxiao who really made the decision. A group of people, after all, is their graduation exam.

"We are in this position now." Zhu Youxiao was both nervous and excited. It is not an exaggeration to say that this is a war of destroying the country. As the commander of this war, he is inevitably nervous when he is on the battlefield for the first time, pointing his fingers on the map. , raised his head and said to the people around him: "According to intelligence, Lin Danhan's tent is currently located here. According to the nearest route, we should march from here."

"In order to pursue the speed and suddenness of the march, we were light and simple, and we only carried supplies for three days. Therefore, along the way, we have to obtain enough food from those grassland people, and there are some changes in the route."

Seeing everyone around nodding their heads one after another, Zhu Youxiao heaved a sigh of relief, and turned to look at Wang Xuan again.

"Don't look at me!" Wang Xuan waved his hand, "You have the final say on this matter, in fact, it doesn't matter if you don't complete the task satisfactorily this time, as long as the army loses little, so you don't need to put too much pressure on yourself. "

It was rare for Wang Xuan to speak so easily, and Zhu Youxiao let go of his last trace of worry.

With the detailed maps compiled in the past few years, the compass, and the starry sky to determine the orientation, you will not get lost on the prairie.

In the middle of the night, full of stars, a crescent moon does not bring much light to the grassland. The [-] troops stand still, as if they have completely merged into the night. Zhu Youxiao is at the forefront of the team, looking at the stars on the grassland in front of him. A group of people said: "The front is a small tribe. According to the data, the number does not exceed [-]. In order not to leak the news, we must kill them all."

"Yes!" A group of people responded in a low voice.

"In order to ensure nothing goes wrong, the army is now divided into four teams and surrounded from four directions. Now start checking the watch and act on time in an hour!"

After the order was finished, the army was divided into four. Zhu Youxiao personally led the team to stay where they were, while the other three team lightly knocked on the horse's belly and walked around in a big circle.

There were no flares, no rumbling drums, and at the moment when the time came, all the soldiers in the four directions dismounted and led the horses towards the camp without a sound.
