I Am the Grandson of the Second Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Earning 100 Million Taels at the Beginn

Chapter 239 Blood shame for the ancestors, revenge for the same clan, and peace for the descendants!

"So, he doesn't intend to accept my kindness!"

On the hillside of the Tatar camp, Alutai sat on a piece of fur, looked at the opposite mountain, chewed dried meat in his mouth, and asked casually.

The Maoli boy watched Alutai hesitate to speak, and wanted to ask why Alutai wanted to negotiate peace with Daming, but out of loyalty and respect for him, he just nodded in the end.

"Ugh!"

Alutai was silent for a while, and then a sigh came out of his mouth.

"I thought of resolving this matter peacefully, so that the people of the tribe could return to the grassland and continue to live a carefree life."

"It seems that this battle is inevitable!"

Looking at the opposite mountain peak, Alutai murmured a few times to himself.

"Never mind!"

After getting up and sweeping the meat off his body, Alutai turned and said to the Maoli kid.

"Notify the boys, get ready for battle!"

"Yes, Grand Master!"

The hairy kid looked determined, answered loudly, turned around and was about to leave.

"Wait!"

The Maoli boy turned around and bowed his head, quietly waiting for Alutai's order.

After pondering for a while, Alutai said.

"You go to Zhu Di's side again and tell him that if you have the ability, there will be a real battle between men."

"Offensive and defensive battles are boring, if you have the ability to lead the army to fight in a dignified manner!"

"what do you mean?"

The Maoli boy looked at Alutai suspiciously.

Alutai smiled and waved his hand.

"Go, Zhu Di, he will understand!"

Soon the Maoli boy passed the word to the old man.

"Little brat, do you understand what this old fox means?"

After Mao Lihai left, the old man stood at the entrance of the hall with his hands behind his back, looked at the opposite mountain, suddenly chuckled, and asked Zhu Zhangui without looking back.

Zhu Zhangui thought for a while and replied.

"The grandson thinks that Alutai may have two meanings."

The old man raised his hand and motioned for Zhu Zhangui to talk.

The generals also looked at Zhu Zhangui with a smile, expecting his answer.

Everyone present knew in their hearts that the emperor had already begun to bring his grandson to the Tao.

Now it is just expressing ideas and opinions, the next step is the formulation of the overall combat plan, and finally the military command and takeover.

During the foreign sea battle, although Zhu Zhangui commanded the operations of the various ministries, the real decision-making power was still in the hands of the old man.

If the old man disagrees, none of the overseas troops would dare to move.

Although Jianghuai and Li Hu are all Zhu Zhangui's people, but when Zhu Zhangui did not directly express his rebellion, Zhu Zhangui and the old man had to obey the old man's orders first.

It's not about being faithful or not, it's about the rules.

The two were officials of the imperial court first, and then followers of Zhu Zhangui.

The emperor is the helm of power in the entire dynasty, and as a courtier, he must listen, unless Zhu Zhangui directly raised the flag of rebellion.

"First, Alutai's subordinates mainly rely on the cavalry, and they are not good at offensive and defensive warfare."

"Whether we beat them or they beat us, under the suppression of artillery and various offensive weapons, they don't have any advantage at all except for constantly filling their lives!"

"And field battles are different!"

"Although they are our opponents, we have to say that in terms of cavalry combat, without the blessing of muskets, we are still slightly inferior to them, and we are far inferior in terms of cavalry and shooting."

"What's more, our artillery's mobility is limited when we fight on the broad plains!"

"If Arutai chooses the infantry to attack from the front and the cavalry to outflank the two wings, it will be difficult for our artillery to quickly support other directions!"

"But the defense is different. It's a one-sided attack. As many people as there are in Arutai!"

"One of the more important factors is that our army has come from afar, and it can be regarded as a tired army!"

"Although the Arutai army has confronted me for a long time, we have never had any conflicts. It can be said that we are at the peak of our mental and physical strength!"

"Compared to the two, we are at a slight disadvantage!"

Zhu Zhangui's first thought came out, and the old man and the generals present nodded slightly.

Several veteran generals stroked their beards in relief, and patted the younger generals who followed beside them.

As if to say.

"You little bastards are lucky, and you are an emperor who is good at fighting. The generals group can at least last a hundred years!"

Of course, there are happy ones and unhappy ones.

Zhu Gaoxu, the King of Han who stood at the top of all the generals, had a stinky face the whole time.

The higher Zhu Zhangui's status in the general's heart, the lower his status will be.

If one day the old man disappears, if he wants to learn from the old man and have a hard time, he may not succeed as easily as the old man.

The main reason why the old man was able to win easily at the beginning was because the generals group looked on coldly.

Otherwise, if Li Jinglong was replaced by other generals, even if he couldn't stop the old man, it would still take a few years. It's really hard to say who will win in the end.

The old man smiled and nodded, leaning on the door frame with his arms folded, looking like an old farmer testing his grandson, and asked.

"What about the second one!"

Zhu Zhangui chuckled.

"Second, it's very simple. If you move to the grassland to fight, even if he fails, it's easy to run."

"Hahaha…"

The old man and the generals couldn't help laughing out loud.

The laughter fell.

The old man looked at Zhu Zhangui.

"Do you think we should promise them?"

Zhu Zhangui replied directly without thinking.

"We have no choice but to agree to a quick fight with him!"

The old man nodded hesitantly.

"What's the reason?"

"Logistics, two hidden dangers in the west, overseas territories!"

There was a look of relief in the old man's eyes.

Daming must accept Alutai's challenge.

Hundreds of thousands of troops are out. Although they are fighting near the border, the logistical pressure is also very heavy.

The grassland is not very safe, and the imperial court transports food from Nuer Gandusi.

Xiaqiu is better, but the road here in winter is simply a nightmare.

Coupled with the hidden threats from the Western Regions and Wusi Zangdusi in the west, as well as the uncertain factors overseas, this war with the grasslands, Ming must be resolved quickly, and it cannot be dragged on for too long, otherwise it is easy to appear in other places. question.

Alutai was sure of this point, and he was sure that the old man would definitely agree to the field battle on the grassland.

Back on the seat, the old man closed his eyes and meditated, rubbing his thumbs and index fingers habitually.

None of the generals below said anything, silently waiting for the old man's decision.

The time passed, and the old man who closed his eyes and meditated suddenly opened his eyes, and released two sharp lights, shooting at the generals below.

At this moment, the old man seemed to have returned to the peak of Jing Nan back then, and stood up and said domineeringly.

"The first battle is the final battle!"

"Let's make a complete break with this old opponent, and wipe out all the troubles on the grassland in one fell swoop."

"For our future generations, create a Ming Dynasty without the troubles of the north!"

All the generals present stood up straight, those veterans seemed to have returned to the day of Jing Nan, with fanatical admiration in their eyes, watching the old man raise his hand violently and roar loudly.

"kill!"

Then the old man issued a combat command order.

Zhu Zhangui was in charge of commanding the Shenji Battalion he brought out as the front army of the whole army, Han Wang Zhu Gaoxu commanded the [-] Battalion, and Liu Sheng, who was transferred to the Fifth Army Battalion, was in charge of commanding the Fifth Army Battalion located in the Central Army.

He also assigned two veterans to lead the cavalry as left and right rangers, responsible for protecting the two wings of the army.

Even Li Hu, who is in the navy, arranged for a commander-in-chief of the artillery to command the artillery of the entire army.

As the orders were arranged one by one, a famous general stood up and took the order loudly.

After the battle was arranged, the old man looked at everyone, arched his hands and gave a slight bow.

"My lords, my father led all of you fathers to defeat Meng Yuan and founded the Great Ming Dynasty."

"Although there were many northern expeditions in the later period, the remnants of the Mongolian and Yuan Dynasties have not been wiped out."

"Since I ascended the throne, I dare not forget the teachings of my parents, and I have repeatedly wiped out the remnants of the Northern Expedition!"

"After decades of fighting, thousands of miles away, Mahamu was annihilated, and Duoyan Sanwei was subdued."

"Today, there is only Alutai left in the Mongolian Yuan forces."

"In this battle, I hope that you will work hard to fulfill the last wish of your father's generation, and completely turn Mengyuan into nothingness! Avenge the ancestors who were violated by Mengyuan countless times. Create a millennium of peace for future generations, and never be harassed by the northern grassland forces again! For those sons and daughters of the Han family who died tragically under Meng Yuan's sword, one should be returned, they have waited countless years for justice!"

Everyone below looked serious, and they raised their hands and hit the armor on their chests vigorously.

"Blood shame for the ancestors, revenge for the compatriots, peace for the descendants!"

"kill!"

"kill!"

"kill!"

Yongle 16th May [-]th!
It's an ordinary day that can't be on an ordinary day.

But in the history of later generations, it was an important turning point for the Ming Dynasty to dominate the world.

The first real battle between the Ming Dynasty and the grassland forces broke out on this day.

A battle of millions of troops is a rare battle in the history of China, not to mention in the history of the world.

Every battle of millions of people will leave a strong mark in the history books.

The side that wins will be passed down through the ages.

The generals who command this kind of battle to win can also rank in the top 20 on the list of Chinese famous generals.

So this war, the old man chose to personally command.

After all, since ancient times, there seems to have been no emperor who personally commanded millions of people to fight.

The old man has no other hobbies, but he likes to compare himself with those emperors in history.

For example, the territory he most wants to compare is the first, the army is the second, and the economy is the third.

As for political ability.

Well, the old man never mentioned this point.

In the words of his great grandson, compared to the identity of the emperor, I think you are more like my father's general of the Northern Expedition.

The old man was deeply hit by this and beat Zhu Zhangui hard.

Later this joke spread from the palace, Zhu Pangpang was trembling with fright on his face, but he was happy in his heart.

This brat always loves to tell the truth.

What is the general of the Northern Expedition, no matter how you say your grandfather is also the emperor, you must be named the Generalissimo of the Northern Expedition no matter what.

Of course, this is what he thought in private, he dared not say such nonsense in his mouth, for fear that the old man would find out and beat him up.

Although he is fat, but in terms of resistance to beating, he is far behind the second child and his own son.

These two guys are genuine.

Every time I was beaten by the old man, I was so miserable that I couldn't get out of bed the first day, and ran around fiercely the next day.

Zhu Pangpang is envious of this resilience and the ability to resist beatings.

"woooooooo~"

It was just dawn, and bursts of horns sounded on the two hills.

Immediately after that, a number of chants and a resounding order came continuously in the barracks.

Just as the red sun in the east showed a little scalp, the gate of the camp on the right was slowly pushed open.

A dark red flag with bright characters trimmed in gold, and a banner with red characters bordered in yellow, were the first to leave the camp one after the other.

Immediately after putting the gun on the shoulder, the fully armed soldiers of the Shenji Battalion walked to the agreed battlefield with drumbeats in neat steps.

At the same time, the gate of the opposite camp also opened, and the totem of Alutai and the flag of Meng Yuan also left the camp.

Below the flag, there are heavy infantry wearing heavy armor, which is rare in the grassland, and carrying large heavy infantry.

Following years of research on the Shenji Camp of the Ming Dynasty, Alutai discovered that heavy wooden shields, or iron shields, can defend against the shooting of such weapons at medium and long distances.

So before going to war with the Ming army, he allocated heavy infantry to the troops to deal with the Ming Dynasty's Shenji Battalion.

The two sides were separated by a wide canyon, and no one paid attention to the other, walking side by side to the distant battlefield.

Zhu Zhangui rode a horse and followed the team slowly.

On the left, the Maoli boy was also in heavy armor, and followed the heavy armor without saying a word.

The vanguard troops of the two sides met at the exit of the mountain.

The location of the mountain pass is a bit narrow. It was originally several miles wide, but it is only one or two miles to here. Anyone with good eyesight can see the faces of the marching soldiers on the opposite side.

Zhu Zhangui stopped at Taniguchi and looked across.

The Maoli boy on the opposite side also stopped feeling something, and looked at Zhu Zhangui.

The two looked at each other for a long time, and finally they both bowed their hands in unison, drove their horses and followed the team to the broad grassland.

In the valley, the old man also came out with the Chinese army in his clothes.

He did not follow the team forward, but took some generals and guards to the opposite side.

On the opposite side, Alutai, who also came out one after another, also came with generals and guards.

The two sides stopped within a stone's throw.

"I have seen His Majesty the Great Emperor!"

Alutai saluted first.

The old man nodded slightly and greeted with a smile.

"It's been a long time. I remember that the last time we met was at the end of Yongle 12 years ago! At that time, I was taken aback. I thought you were here to make money!"

"Haha, His Majesty the Great Emperor was joking. I, Alutai, didn't have the guts at that time. I really went to see you."

The old man raised his eyebrows.

"So you have the guts now!"

The smile on Alutai's face remained unchanged.

"I was also forced to do nothing. There are so many herdsmen to feed. Although the grassland is wide, it can't feed so many mouths!"

The old man nodded in agreement.

"You come back to Daming with me, and I'll send someone to feed them."

Alutai looked at the old man calmly.

"His Majesty the Great Emperor's kindness, Arutai appreciates it. I am not used to the food in the Central Plains, the environment in the Central Plains, let alone your doctor's slow healing. The grasslands are more suitable for me."

"Of course, if the Central Plains can return to the Yuan Dynasty, I will definitely move there and entertain you well."

As soon as this remark came out, the old man and Alutai stopped talking and looked at each other quietly.

The atmosphere on both sides became tense instantly.

The generals and guards guarding the two put their hands on their waists one after another, ready for a battle to break out at any time.

But when the atmosphere reached the most tense moment, the two people who looked at each other burst out laughing.

Then the two handed over together.

"Then let's see the real trick on the battlefield, His Majesty the Great Emperor, be careful!"

"Hehe, okay, swords have no eyes, and your subordinates don't know the rules, so you have to be careful."

After finishing speaking, the two turned their horses around in unison, and ran towards the battlefield set in the distance.
