Da Ming Tai Shi

Chapter 412 Lan Yu is very impatient

In the Kyushu Palace, Sapphire was very excited.

After waiting for so many years, watching Chang Mao go to Liaozhou to become the king, he can be regarded as waiting for the day when he returns to the Mobei battlefield and leaps and whips.

This excitement is not only about being able to become the so-called King of Mengzhou in the future, but more about Lan Yu's own pursuit.

Conquer the Mobei Prairie!
No warrior can control himself in the face of this honor, and neither can Sapphire.

Therefore, Sapphire is more excited about the upcoming war itself, rather than claiming the kingship after the war.

"I don't know anything about war, so, you guys discuss it and listen alone."

Chen Yunfu handed over the topic to Lan Yu: "Master Lan, please introduce the current situation in the grassland. At the same time, if you plan to mobilize troops, tell them how many troops to use and how to fight."

The latter nodded and said impatiently.

"The current situation in the grassland is like this. Since the battle of Yuerhai that year, the whereabouts of Libala bought by the Yuan Lord was unknown. One after another, they competed with Yesudieer for the power of the grassland.

So far, the three parties have been at war for more than ten years, with serious internal conflicts, and their strength is not even as good as that of Bei Yuan, who was still alive. "

Sapphire's face was full of confidence, and he commented on the Mobei Grassland at this moment in a very arrogant tone.

"In other words, what stands in front of us at this moment is no longer the great Mongolia that once conquered the world, but just three lone wolves that have lost their teeth, and they are easy to kill and catch."

"Don't be too confident." Chen Yunfu stopped: "A skinny camel is bigger than a horse. It is a good thing to have confidence, but you can't be conceited. After all, the grassland is an enemy of our Central Plains Dynasty for thousands of years. If it is really easy to destroy, Back then, the Xiongnu would not have dragged down the Western Han Dynasty of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty."

"Tell me about the combat plan your military department and staff department have prepared for this battle."

Sapphire nodded and continued to speak.

"The situation in the grassland is completely different from that of North Korea. The grassland is vast and stretches thousands of miles, so there are very few offensive battles, and they are basically mobile encounters. Therefore, cavalry is the main combat arm, and infantry is only used as auxiliary troops.

In addition, the weather in Mobei is very cold, and the wind and snow come quickly and quickly. Usually after September, it is difficult for soldiers to leave the camp to fight and need to keep warm.

However, the prairie people are the same as us. Every winter, many old and young prairie people will freeze to death. Therefore, in the previous thousands of years, the prairie people would use horses, cattle and sheep to trade with the Central Plains Dynasty in exchange for clothes. and food and other winter supplies.

The battle of conquering the grassland will not be short, but its intensity will not be as intense as that of the battle for conquering the court. There will be fast-paced, short-term engagements, and long-term battles.

Although it will not last for decades like Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, it is unrealistic for us to sweep the caves and wipe out all the prairie people within three to two years. None of them are easy. "

Although there is no such tactical concept as guerrilla warfare these days, it does not mean that grassland people do not understand it.

One Han is the five Hu, and the winner is the ordnance technology.

Prairie people are not fools, they will wear leather armor and the hard steel on the front of the armored cavalry regiment of the Ming Dynasty.

They fought once 40 years ago, and were beaten by Xu Da in Yingchang. The 10,000+ army collapsed without holding on for a month. The Libala bought by the prince at that time became a prisoner of Daming.

Since they can't fight head-on, the grassland people will definitely choose to fight Daming in a space war, just like Zhu Di's Northern Expedition in the original time and space.

So what about the five Northern Expeditions and the fragmented grasslands, have Tatars and Wala been wiped out?

As soon as you, Zhu Laosi, die, the grassland government will turn around and give Daming a civil fort.

Chen Yunfu closed his eyes, tapped his fingers on the table rhythmically, and waited until Lan Yu finished speaking, he opened his mouth and spoke.

"Chang Shuai, Mu Shuai, you all share your opinions."

The two looked at each other and said.

"In terms of understanding of the grassland and cavalry commanding ability, the two ministers are far inferior to Lan Shuai."

The implication is that when Sapphire commands us to fight wars, we will not talk too much to avoid embarrassment.

"Since this is the case, I don't want to intervene much in the command of the battle. Let Commander Lan take full power to decide." Chen Yunfu did not overstep his authority in this regard, and handed over the command of the battle to Lan Yu, but added a sentence at the end .

"Gu has ordered people to go to the Seventh Guards of Meng, and invite the commanders of the Seventh Guards of Meng to come to Beijing, and also include the Mongolian chiefs among the guards of Monan. Now, let’s make a decision about the Northern Expedition together.”

To beat the Mongols, what's the point of negotiating with people from the Seven Guards of Mengmeng?

Can people be willing to fight their own people?

Sapphire was a little noncommittal, and besides, in his eyes, is clearing the grassland a tricky task? There is no need to be so cautious.

However, Chen Yunfu had already spoken, and he couldn't refute it, so he nodded and clasped his fists.

"Listen to the king's decision."

"Okay, there's nothing else to do, let's go."

Chen Yunfu sorted out the various official documents on the table, and Lan Yu wanted to go up to him and whisper a few words to Chen Yunfu, but Yang Shiqi came to Chen Yunfu's side first, and leaned over to whisper in the latter's ear.

"Just now, the office sent a note saying that Hu Sizong, the chief minister of Guangdong, brought Chen Xi to Beijing."

Chen Yunfu hummed: "Is there anything else Gu can do next?"

"Shen Zheng, I want to meet Huang Guan, Shangshu of the Ministry of Education, and Kong Ximiao, the left servant."

Chen Yunfu glanced at the instrument platform in the hall, and said: "Understood, you can arrange for the two of them to wait in Wenyuan Pavilion, and wait alone."

"it is good."

Yang Shiqi nodded and left first, Chen Yunfu didn't delay here, and said to the hesitant Lan Yu: "Shuai Lan, I still have a lot of things to deal with, if you have anything to say, let's talk about it tomorrow."

"Your Majesty, please be busy first, and take care of the holy bow."

There was nothing Lan Yu could do, so she had to watch Chen Yunfu go, shaking her head helplessly behind her back and sighing.

"It's just a grassland, King Yu, King Yu, why are you so cautious."

Chang Mao said beside him: "Uncle, the king is also worried."

"There's nothing to worry about." Lan Yu raised her brows, "It's not something you can just reach out to hit the grassland. What's wrong, you think I can't do it?"

"No, no, uncle's martial arts are obvious to all the world."

Chang Mao waved his hands again and again, and stepped aside with a smile.

How can I say that I am also the king of Liao now, and you scold me one by one, at least to save some face.

"Humph."

Sapphire snorted and strode out of the Kyushu Hall, but she had made up her mind.

Tomorrow, whatever you say, you have to go to Chen Yunfu, and hurry up to finalize the matter of the Northern Expedition.

Seeing that Chang Mao became the king now, his heart is like a cat scratching his head!
