Ming Dynasty: A mere unruly commoner is rebelling against the heaven?

Chapter 68 I swear to destroy them all!

"Ahemah Khan has rebelled again!"

"These messed up Mongolian Khanates are all ungrateful wolves that can never be tamed!"

"I swear to destroy them all!"

Zhu Youtang was extremely furious. He had just dealt with the Tartars in the north, but the Turpan Khanate in the northwest was no longer peaceful.

The northern part of the Ming Dynasty is in great chaos today.

A group of members of the Golden Family established countless khanates of various sizes outside the Great Wall. They fought wars everywhere for years and were almost exhausted.

In addition to the two well-known tribes of Oirat and Tatar in the north, there are also a series of khanates in the northwest, including the Eastern Chagatai Khanate, the Golden Horde, the Timurid Khanate, and so on.

These khanates are like cells. After a period of time, they will automatically split into more small khanates.

The Eastern Chagatai Khanate split into the Turpan Khanate, the Golden Horde split into the Kazakh Khanate, the Kazan Khanate, the Crimean Khanate, the Siberian Khanate... and so on.

The khans of these khanates were all members of the Golden Family, and they were often in a situation where uncles beat nephews and nephews killed uncles.

Let them be in chaos, but what’s even more infuriating is that after they were in chaos, their attitude towards the Ming Dynasty was sometimes good and sometimes bad.

It was the Khan of the previous Khanate who had just negotiated peace with the Ming Dynasty and opened up trade.

As a result, within two years, the Khanate either split up or was conquered by other Khanates.

The newly appointed Khanate tore up the agreement with the Ming Dynasty in one fell swoop, killed Ming Dynasty merchants, killed Ming Dynasty citizens, robbed grain, silver, and tea...forcing the Ming Dynasty to close its borders and suspend business again.

Two years later, the envoys of the Khanate came again with a shameless face to ask the Ming Dynasty to reopen trade.

They rebel at every turn, and then shamelessly come to ask for peace after the rebellion. Zhu Youtang is completely fed up with this group of ungrateful wolves!
"Mou Bin, go get Gao Shun to see me!"

"Yes."

"Also, ask Liu Daxia to come over as well."

"It's Your Majesty."

Mou Bin left quickly.

Not long after, the commander of the Xianzhen Camp Imperial Guards, Wuding Hou Gao, came to the Hongde Hall.

"General Gao Shun pays respect to His Majesty!"

After Gao Shun walked into the Hongde Hall, he saluted Zhu Youtang in a proper manner.

Zhu Youtang waved his hand and said, "No need to be polite. Come in front of me."

"Yes."

Gao Shun took two more steps and stood in front of Zhu Youtang.

Zhu Youtang frowned and asked in a deep voice, "How is your training going with the three major camps in the capital that I asked you to train?"

"Your Majesty, during this period of time, I have often had the Three Thousand Battalions and the Five Army Battalions trained, and their combat effectiveness has been greatly enhanced."

"But I don't understand the Shenji Battalion's combat methods, and I don't dare to practice them rashly."

Among the three major camps in the capital, the three thousand camps are all cavalry, and the five army camps are all infantry.

The Shenjiying was a special unit in the Ming Dynasty army that was in charge of firearms and was the first firearms unit in the world.

The Shenjinying of the Ming Dynasty was a century earlier than the earliest organized firearms unit in Europe, the Spanish musketeers.

However, the current Shenji Camp mainly relies on muskets.

The most fatal weaknesses of the musket are its long reloading time, short range, poor accuracy, and easy explosion.

Therefore, the current firearms battalion is still not the protagonist on the battlefield.

It was not until the invention of the flintlock rifle that the Shenjiying was able to shine, replacing the cavalry and becoming the most important and lethal branch of the military on the battlefield.

After a brief thought, Zhu Youtang gave the order: "Send out 30,000 elite soldiers from the Xianzhen Camp, lead 10,000 soldiers from the Shenji Camp, 33,000 soldiers from the Ying Camp, and 65,000 soldiers from the Jun Camp, and set out to Hami Guard immediately."

"Not only must I take Hami Guard back from Ahem Khan, but I must also completely wipe out the Turpan Khanate from this world!"

"No!"

"Not only the Turpan Khanate, but also the Eastern Chagatai Khanate with his brother Mahamu as the Great Khan, will be wiped out as well!"

This was the first time that Zhu Youtang issued an order for outward expansion.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Gao Shun's face turned stern and he accepted the order seriously.

Zhu Youtang nodded slowly and suddenly asked again.

"The Turpan Khanate is not very strong. At most, its combat strength will not exceed 50,000."

"But I gave you so many soldiers and horses. Do you know what I mean?"

The current number of troops in the three major camps in the capital is only about 200,000.

Zhu Youtang sent out half of his troops at once.

After a brief thought, Gao Shun immediately replied: "I understand!"

"Your Majesty wants to train the troops!"

Zhu Youtang nodded with satisfaction: "That's right, soldiers who have never been to the battlefield and have never seen blood are not true iron-blooded soldiers."

"You don't have to lead the army in this battle yourself. Let those talented young generals hone their skills."

Gao Shun's face was solemn, and he bowed and accepted the order: "Yes, Your Majesty!"

Just then, a young eunuch came in to report.

"Your Majesty, the Minister of War, Mr. Liu, requests to see you."

When it comes to Liu Daxia, Zhu Youtang becomes furious.

"Let him in!"

After Liu Daxia entered the room, before he had time to salute, the angry Zhu Youtang had already thrown the teacup at him.

After being hit hard, Liu Daxia was still confused. Zhu Youtang's angry roar came down on him.

"Liu Daxia! Didn't you tell me that my borders are peaceful?"

"How did Hamiwei get lost?!"

"Ahem Khan rebelled and killed Han Shen and more than 10,000 Ming soldiers guarding the border. What's going on?!"

After learning the news, facing Zhu Youtang's wrath, Liu Daxia felt a chill on his back, his legs went weak, and he knelt down instantly.

"Your Majesty, calm down! This matter is due to my lack of consideration."

"A few days ago, I received news that Han Shen and Ahem Khan were about to get married."

"I thought that after the marriage, Hamiwei would be more peaceful than before, but I didn't expect..."

"Who are those people in the Golden Family?!"

Zhu Youtang was heartbroken: "These are all beasts who beat their nephews with uncles and murder their nephews, and they only target blood relatives!"

"Do you think that after the marriage, Ahama Khan will not rebel?!"

Liu Daxia felt aggrieved. Your Majesty, the thing you just mentioned seemed to have been done by one of our ancestors, right?
How can you blame me for this?
However, on the surface, Liu Daxia's attitude of admitting his mistake was still sincere.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me for my stupidity. I didn't prepare in advance and missed the important event."

"Your Majesty, please forgive me!"

Zhu Youtang slammed the dragon table and said, "Immediately mobilize 130,000 troops and three months of food and grass for me."

"Quickly send a message to Hami Guard. My three major camps in the capital are about to set out!"

"what?!"

Liu Daxia was horrified.

Hami Wei is not as big as Datong Prefecture, and it is right on the edge of the capital.

Hami Wei is a full 5,200 miles away from the capital.

Isn't it asking for trouble to send troops from the capital to Hami to quell the rebellion?
Liu Daxia quickly advised: "Your Majesty, sending troops from the capital to quell the rebellion is too far from Hamiwei."

"Why not gather the soldiers from Suzhou Guard, Yongchang Guard, and Liangzhou Guard to provide support?"

"Besides, the three major camps of the capital have been transferred out of the capital, so what should we do with the defense of the capital?"

　I beg you to read the data tomorrow. The success or failure of this book depends on this one move. I beg you, my dear readers!!!
