First Minister of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 476: Make dumplings

Zhu Yuanzhang's fighting ability is easy to be ignored, especially after he ascended the throne and proclaimed emperor, Zhu Yuanzhang really did not face the enemy. But the amazing thing is that the several northern expeditions in Daming were all strategies formulated by Zhu Yuanzhang, which belonged to remote micro-manipulation.

But the gap between micro-manipulation and micro-manipulation is bigger than the gap between man and dog.

Real micro-manipulation, recovering Yanyun, until Beihai, destroying Yuan Ting... False micro-manipulation, a map, arrows in the buttocks, donkey carts drift.

In fact, in the early days of the army, Zhu Yuanzhang not only attacked and killed himself, but also brought out Xu Da's generals. It is conservatively estimated that Zhu Yuanzhang's commanding ability will not be worse than Xu Da.

In today's world, it is definitely the first-class in the first-class.

Hu Dahai left Zhu Yuanzhang 30,000 elites, and Zhu Yuanzhang still had 5,000 guards, as well as some Han generals in front of the emperor, almost 6,000 people, plus 2,000 cavalry in front of the emperor.

This is Lao Zhu's direct troops.

Different from the imperial guards and generals of the Great Han during the Taiping period... They were all chosen to be tall and dignified in appearance, and their appearance was more important than the inside.

But now to be selected as the Imperial Guard, which one has not gone through many battles, climbed out of the sea of ​​corpses and blood, and must be absolutely loyal and reliable to be selected.

It is no exaggeration to say that Zhu Yuanzhang holds the power that will ultimately decide the battle situation in his hand... And as the emperor, at a critical moment, personally rushing to kill can greatly boost morale and set the world in one fell swoop!

Therefore, Zhu Yuanzhang's decision to go to the battlefield in person was not just a whim, but he had carefully calculated.

Of course, when Lao Zhu decided to go to the battlefield, Zhang Ximeng couldn't just sit back and ignore it.

He had to get a suit of armor and find a sword. He was used to a hand with a writing brush and suddenly held the sword, which was quite difficult for him.

Looking at the bows and arrows, Zhang Ximeng shook his head even more. They were all hard bows. He used the strength to suckle, but he could pull them away, but the problem was that he couldn't shoot at all, and holding them was just a decoration.

He also wanted to think about the matchlock gun, but Guo Ying stopped him directly, let's not joke! That thing will blow up if it's not right. It doesn't matter if it hurts Mr. Zhang. If the superior next to it collapses, it will be a sin.

Zhang Ximeng rolled his eyes in anger, he couldn't have nothing!

Not to mention, Guo Ying got him a crossbow. It is said that this crossbow was made by skilled craftsmen for more than a year. It is powerful and easy to load.

If it weren't for the high cost, it would have been equipped on a large scale.

Just for Zhang Xiang's self-defense!

Listen, others are called killing the enemy, while those given to Zhang Ximeng are called self-defense.

Are you so discriminated against?

If my blind cat kills the mouse and kills Chahan, won't I scare you to death?

Zhang Ximeng could only be secretly angry, and at this moment Chahan Timur also felt the breath of war.

Compared with Zhu Yuanzhang's actions of making dumplings, Chahan Timur focused his attention on Shanzhou.

For this reason, he even secretly left the barracks, came to Mianchi, and went to the front line in person.

Seeing Wang Baobao, Chahan just gave him two mouths, and beat Baobao to stand upright, not even daring to let out a fart!

"Humph! I haven't decided the winner with the surnamed Zhu, but you lost to Zhu Yuanzhang's nephew first, shame on you!"

A word of scolding made Wang Baobao's face flush, and he felt ashamed.

He attacked Shanzhou continuously for almost 20 days, but there was hardly any progress except for the loss of soldiers and generals.

At the beginning, with a burst of energy, he almost entered the city.

However, Zhu Wen was building several layers of Wengcheng in the city. After entering, he fell into the pit, lost more than a thousand elites, and did not take advantage of it.

After days of confrontation, Wang Baobao alone lost more than 5,000 people, and Li Siqi's loss even exceeded Wang Baobao's.

"Father, there has always been no good way to siege the city. If you can't do it all at once, you can only delay it for a long time. When the food in the city runs out and you can't support it, it will naturally happen."

"You fart!"

Chahan Timur scolded angrily, "If you want to delay, is Zhu Chongba willing? He is dispatching troops, and it seems that he is going to have a life-and-death fight with his father. You can't take down Shanzhou. You, you have disappointed my father too much!"

Baobao is too difficult, and my heart is full of bitterness, but what can I do?

Zhu Wenzheng was like a stone in a ditch, stinky and hard.

The Battle of Shanzhou has reached a stalemate, and Wang Baobao has also worked hard these days. He inquired that two hundred years ago, there was a Song general named Li Yanxian who was here and fought against the Jinbing for more than a year.

Hearing this time, Wang Baobao was about to cry.

"Father, the child is incompetent... But the child has an idea, and maybe there is a way to break the situation."

Chahan pondered for a long time before he said, "Go ahead!"

Wang Baobao agreed, and immediately said: "Father, since Zhu Yuanzhang wants to fight decisively, he will inevitably send his troops to cross the river. At that time, the land of Henan was empty. Father only needed to choose 20,000 to 30,000 cavalry, and let the boy or other generals lead them from Zhengzhou and Ru In the middle of the state, take Xuzhou directly, then go down the Ru River and the Wuhe River, attack Haozhou and other places, you can also attack Xuzhou, Huaian... Anyway, it is the hinterland of the Ming army, the door is open, our iron cavalry goes in, overturns the river and overturns the sea, killing a seven Entering and going out, Zhu Yuanzhang will either go to the rescue, or sit back and watch the erosion in his heart... If he goes to rescue, his father will lead the army to fight back, and the surnamed Zhu will definitely lose!"

The corners of Baobao's mouth were still bleeding, but this chatter made Chahan Timur's eyes light up.

He is now riding on the back of a tiger. If only from the perspective of the battlefield situation, he should have returned north long ago. If he can't take Shanzhou, he can't take it, and if he loses Kaifeng, he will lose it. what an amazing thing.

It's just that Chahan had another layer of mind at this time.

The crown prince Ayushridara found him and hoped to get his help to ascend to the throne.

At this juncture, Chahan Timur is not allowed to defeat the battle, otherwise there is no shame in doing something like Master Dong!

There is no need to defeat Zhu Yuanzhang, as long as he can force Lao Zhu back, he can use the merits of preserving the society and the grain, and do the things of abolition.

After figuring out Chahan Timur's mind, I also understand the key to this war... Compared with Zhu Yuanzhang's focus on military affairs, Chahan's mind is more complicated.

At this time, it's not that more chances to win than less chances, on the contrary, the more you think, the greater the loss may be...

Wang Baobao's remarks made Chahan Timur think differently. If he can really rely on a cavalry, he will disturb Zhu Yuanzhang's rear and force Lao Zhu to retreat.

Even if it is a win.

Maybe it's really a way, but it's a bit troublesome to choose who to do this... Chahan Timur decided to return to Huaiqing overnight, discuss with his confidants, and make the final decision.

Wang Baobao's opinion can't be wrong. At present, the Ming army in Henan has only Feng Guoyong and Chang Yuchun's soldiers and horses. Among them, Chang Yuchun's main force has to be transferred to Hebei to participate in the fatal blow to Chahan.

The vast area to the south of Kaifeng is completely flat, and there is no danger to defend. An army of tens of thousands of yuan can indeed overturn rivers and seas and do whatever they want.

The whole big pocket was punctured at the bottom.

"Captain, you can't count it like this. We still have a soldier and horse. If we don't use it, Chahan won't be able to get anything cheap." Zheng Yuchun said confidently.

Chang Yuchun looked at this guy. Your operation in Kaifeng successfully sent away Da Song Zhongliang. What's your bad idea now?

"Great Governor, I'm really wronged. In fact, when the Yuan army besieged Kaifeng... Bozhou, Yingzhou, Anfeng, Suzhou... These places have already belonged to us. It's just that because it is the homeland of the Han and Song Dynasties, we didn't make a big splash. During this time, we We sent a lot of propagandists, preachers, and also sent a lot of soldiers to assist in the establishment of militias in various places and to equalize fields.

When Chang Yuchun heard this, he was suddenly shocked, "Yes, I also remembered, I led the troops to kill, and there are many militiamen who helped transport the luggage, and they made a lot of contributions!"

Zheng Yuchun smiled and nodded, "Yes, to say that these militiamen can beat the Mongolian iron cavalry would be an overestimate. But our idea of ​​Juntian has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. If you kill him, we can organize the transfer of the people and resolutely clear the walls! Moreover, the militia can cooperate with the army, intercept the Yuan army, and fortify layer by layer... Chahan doesn't need to send troops. , how many come, how many die! There will definitely be no return!"

Having said that, it was finally revealed that behind the superficial force contrast, there is a deeper force contrast.

There is no doubt that at this point, the Yuan army was defeated miserably and miserably.

Can Mongolian iron cavalry be like their ancestors, relying only on a little beef jerky and horse milk to run thousands of miles?

Obviously it can't be done.

Moreover, the land of Jianghuai is not the northern grassland. The river network is dense and the terrain is complicated. Even when Mongolia was in its heyday, it suffered a lot in this area.

To this day, let alone dream.

As long as the people unite, and a piece of loose sand is condensed together, it is the strongest diamond, invincible and invincible!

After weighing it, Chang Yuchun decided to let Wang Bi continue to attack Zhengzhou under his own name to contain the Yuan army.

Zheng Yuchun mobilized the militia, stared at every move of the Yuan army, and when necessary, organized a strong wall to clear the field, and then cooperated with Wang Bi to delay the Yuan army.

Furthermore, I gave an order to Liao Yongzhong to send out elite navy troops to enter the Yellow River and Huai River... If they encounter an enemy situation, they will strike decisively to protect the rear of the Ming army.

With the orders issued one after another, the main force of the Ming army has been fully prepared.

The second stage of the decisive battle in the Central Plains is just around the corner... And it is Sapphire who decides when this battle will start!

Breaking through the Baixing Pass and marching quickly for 200 miles, you can reach Shangdang, and this is the intersection of Taixingxing and Baixing... That is to say, if you take Shangdang, you will block Chahan Timur's return to the north. the way of the throat.

It's just that Baixing is so dangerous, Chahan is stationed in Taihang with a large army, and it is impossible not to be undefended at every point of entry. How to break through Baixingkou is definitely a problem.

"Captain, I have walked through this Baixingkou three times." Lan Yu said seriously: "It is different from other Taihang main roads. Baixingkou is the main trade route between Shanxi and Yu, and the trade of goods in the northwest and southeast. They have to go here, so it is regarded as the Taihang Silk Road. There are endless business exchanges in Jin.”

Hu Dahai was stunned, and then said: "The two armies are fighting, are they still like this?"

Lan Yu laughed, "It is precisely because of the war that money is needed to support the war, and the businessman exchanges, the profit is higher!"

Hu Dahai was stunned for a moment, and suddenly thought of his son, yes, because Zhu Yuanzhang banned alcohol, he made huge profits, and that boy would court death!

Lao Hu gritted his teeth, "The word profit is really harmful!"

Lan Yu didn't say anything, he didn't want to discuss profound philosophical issues. Lan Yu planned to dress up as a businessman, first pass through Baixingkou, and circle around to the rear of the Yuan army.

Then let Hu Dahai lead a striker and pretend to attack Baixingkou, UU reading www.uukanshu.com to lure the Yuan army out.

In this way, as long as the Yuan army was dispatched, Lan Yu took the opportunity to seize the Yuan army camp and erected the Ming army banner.

"Captain, I also recruited a few hunters from the Taihang Mountains, and then selected 200 soldiers, followed the hunters, and walked around the back of the Baixingkou. The three of us worked together to break through the Baixingkou and turn our hands!"

Although Hu Dahai is rude in appearance, he has a delicate heart.

"Everyone in the world is watching. This victory or defeat is related to the great cause of Daming's Northern Expedition. Only victory is allowed, not defeat! No one can make mistakes!"

Lan Yu nodded, clenched his fists and said, "Don't worry, Governor, I have prepared for this day for almost five years! Five years! A full five years!"
