Jingtai Fengyun: The First Absurd Emperor of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 298
In this way, Zhu Qizhen personally wrote an imperial decree, requesting the emperor and the imperial court to send envoys to negotiate a peace, restore Yexian's tributary rights, and ordered Ala and Tuotuobuhua to stop their attacks on Yexian.

Now it's all right, the emperor knocked on the door and called the door, and the emperor forced a peace agreement later.

Since Zhu Qizhen didn't have a seal in his hand, this so-called 'imperial decree' didn't have a seal, so it was handed over to Nahachu.

After Naha had read it, he nodded with satisfaction, and handed the "imperial decree" to Li Xian.

Li Xian and Li Shi had mixed feelings in their hearts, humiliation, it was too humiliating.He obviously won the battle, why did Da Ming take the initiative to negotiate peace with Ye Ye first, making it seem like Da Ming was the one who lost the battle.

Without waiting for the three of them to communicate again, Naha ordered his personal guards to invite Zhu Qizhen to the new felt tent.

This new yurt is ordinary and tattered, it is very different from Zhu Qizhen's previous yurt.

Inside, there are only a few sheepskins laid on the ground, which is considered a simple bed.

Seeing this situation, Li Xian and Li Shi burst into tears.

Zhu Qizhen was even more ashamed, but there was nothing he could do.

Naha went out and left Zhu Qizhen alone in the felt tent, and urged Li Xian and Li Shi to leave immediately with the mission and supplies.

Two hours later, the mission set off and returned to the capital.

Zhu Qizhen stayed in the tent, these two months were like a dream, but in the end it was nothing.Maids, concubines, felt tents, and chariots were all lost again.

……

On March [-], the weather was fine.

After sleeping lazily until almost noon, Zhu Qiyu didn't get up.Push open the door, walk twenty or thirty steps forward, and you will arrive at the lake.

Zhu Qiyu's plan today is to go fishing, and then grill the fish with his concubines.

It's so simple, this quiet and leisurely life is beautiful even if you think about it.

It's a pity that God didn't want it.

As soon as Zhu Qiyu tied the fishing line, the little girl ran in panting and reported: "Your Majesty, Bachelor He, please go out to discuss matters immediately."

After speaking, the little girl emphasized again: "Scholar He seems to be in a hurry."

Reluctantly, Zhu Qiyu sighed heavily, handed the fishing rod to Concubine Chong, and followed the little maid to the West Pavilion.

As soon as he sat down on the third floor, He Yi immediately handed over the Babaili urgent military report.

Zhu Qiyu knew that there must be no good things without looking at it. Now the imperial court has two armies outside, and the battle of Ningyang Hou's army is coming to an end, so there is no need to issue any urgent military report.

So it must be Uncle Jingyuan's army that caused the accident.

Opening the military newspaper with apprehension, Zhu Qiyu was almost overwhelmed by fright after glancing at it: Isn't this the Jingtai version of the "Battle of Salhu"?

Wang Ji divided the army into three groups. As soon as he arrived in Guilin with the main force, the two armies of Liu Pu, Marquis of Anyuan and Shi Heng, Marquis of Wuqing were attacked in succession and were defeated one by one by the Miao people.

The entire army on the South Road was destroyed, and Liu Pu died in the rebellion; the original Xuanfu army on the North Road was attacked and defeated, and fled back desperately, directly destroying the main force of Shi Heng's Fifth Army Battalion.

The Miao people, who are good at fighting in the mountains, took advantage of the favorable terrain and charged desperately.

Due to the complex terrain and dangerous mountains, Liu Yongcheng and Sun Tong could not lead the army to rescue in time.

In the end, only Shi Heng and Shi Biao led hundreds of soldiers to protect Yang Shan, Jin Ying, Xing'an and other civil officials and military eunuchs, and broke out of the encirclement.

After this battle, the Ming army lost [-] lives.

The Miao people also paid a heavy price.Even though they had a good location and had the advantage of surprise attacks, the casualties of the Miao people even greatly exceeded that of the Ming army.

According to Wang Ji, more than 12 Miao people died in battle alone, and countless injured and disabled people were counted.

So in this battle, although the Ming army was in ambush, it was still a miserable victory.

Zhu Qiyu shook his head and smiled wryly, what's the use of this miserable victory.When the Ming army fought, they were attacked and ambushed at every turn, and then the entire army of five to 10 people was wiped out.This was the case when the Mongolian and Yuan Dynasties were conquered in the north, and it was also the case when the Jiaozhi was discussed in the south.

It's really evil, Zhu Qiyu now began to suspect that there was something wrong with the Ming army's tactics, and was ambushed and attacked at every turn, and it happened again and again, never taught a lesson, never changed.

Zhu Qiyu continued to look behind, and there was something even more frightening: after the Miao people were defeated, they were greatly encouraged and their reputation was greatly shaken.

The Miao people from all ministries responded one after another, taking advantage of the collapse of the Ming army, they rushed into the hinterland of the Huguang plain.

However, the Ming army divided its troops into three groups and marched towards Guiyang at the same time, resulting in the emptiness of Huguang's troops.

General Zhu Qiyu flipped through the newspaper, read it carefully several times, and then turned to He Yi: "Well, you say this, oops... oops!"

He Yi comforted: "Your Majesty, please rest assured, the Miao people also suffered heavy losses, and I think they are at the end of their battles.

Not only did Uncle Jing Yuan's main army not suffer any damage, but he also left [-] new troops to garrison Xiangyang.

Your Majesty only needs to call Guizhou to fix Guizhou, and then cooperate with Uncle Jingyuan's 15 troops to encircle and suppress Huguang from three directions: Guiyang, Guilin, and Xiangyang, and the success will be accomplished soon.

Moreover, in this war, the Miao people were so aggressive, but it gave us a chance to completely put down the Miao chaos.It is much better than endless tug-of-war for decades. "

Zhu Qiyu nodded, yes, he still has a useless hand, and that is Mu Bin, Lord Qian of Yunnan, Shizhen.

Although the Miao people were brave, their strength was limited and their weapons were backward.

If the Miao people hide in deep mountains and old forests, I really have nothing to do with them.

But now that they have reached the plains, isn't that using their own weaknesses to attack the enemy's strengths?

He Yi added: "The Miao people are not stupid, the reason why they invaded the plain area should be the news that the Huguang Ming army's defenses are empty.

So both of us are racing against time. The Miao people thought of grabbing enough supplies and weapons, and then quickly retreated to the deep mountains.

We want to mobilize the army and encircle and suppress them on the plain.

Bing is very fast, and now it depends on which side moves faster. "

Zhu Qiyu nodded, and suddenly realized: "In other words, the intelligence of the Ming army was leaked to the enemy again?"

He Yi smiled wryly, "I'm afraid this is an old problem."

"Hey, I'm so worried. If we do it this way, when we regain Cochin, I guess I won't be able to sleep at night."

While the two were chatting, Chen Xun, Wang Wen and other cabinet scholars and six ministers also hurried over.

Zhu Qiyu looked at the crowd, feeling very embarrassed.

The first year of Jingtai was not peaceful enough.

In the first month, most of the Forbidden City was burned.

In February, another [-] Ming troops were lost in a battle that was not known as a disastrous defeat or a disastrous victory.

I don't know what weird things will happen next.

Zhu Qiyu smiled wryly at the crowd and said, "Why don't I make another punishment for myself."

Chen Xunwen replied: "How can you blame Your Majesty for this matter? It is obvious that the commander at the front line has neglected his duty. The most urgent thing now is to quickly redeploy the army and completely encircle and suppress the Miao people who have entered Huguang."

Zhu Qiyu nodded: "That's the only way. In Wang Ji's military newspaper, he only said that the main force should return to the army and attack Huguang. No specific deployment was mentioned.

Everyone is talking about what to do next? "
