Ming Dynasty: Pick up attributes from the battlefield to create the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 378 Zhu Ying: Submit to the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty will treat you with kindness!
The vast grasslands!

"superior."

"Taking advantage of the fact that the Tatars have now lost their strength, we will relocate the Tatar tribes to our Oirat."

“Listen up, all of you.”

"From this day forward, they submitted to the Oirat and became their subjects, tending their livestock for the Oirat."

"The Tatars are no longer a match for the Ming Dynasty. Only by merging with our Oirat can they survive in the long run."

"If you join our Oirat, the Oirat will naturally protect you."

They were still within the territory of the Tatars, but were on their way to the Oirats.

A large number of Oirat cavalry were driving tens of thousands of Tatar civilians toward the Oirat direction.

Obviously.

The Oirat Mongols don't care about the Tatar territory now, because within this territory, they might face the Ming Dynasty. If they confront the Ming Dynasty, they will be drawn into a war, which would be a loss.

In their view.

Once the Ming army withdraws, it will be easy for them to seize the Tatar territory and pastures.

After all, the Tatars were already completely crippled.

It's simply impossible to compete with them.

Through this experience...

The Oirat Mongols were even able to unify the grasslands and restore some of the Yuan Dynasty's strength.

At least.

That's what the current Khan of Vada, Choros, thinks.

Avoid direct confrontation with the Ming Dynasty, and plunder as many Tatar people and tribes as possible.

That is the fundamental purpose.

But in reality...

At this moment, the Tatars faced the Ming Dynasty's invasion into their heartland, and the tribes and people within their territory were filled with fear of the Ming Dynasty. They did not resist much when the Oirats forced them to retreat into Oirat territory; on the contrary, they were very happy, after all, they were originally of the same race.

After arriving in the Oirat region.

They might not be treated like the original Oirat tribe, but at least they would be able to save their lives under the Ming army.

After all, at this moment, in the eyes of all the people of the Tatar tribes, the Ming army was a monstrous flood that would not let them go.

It's also at this time!
Tap tap, tap tap tap.

at the rear.

The earth is shaking and the mountains are shaking.

It seemed as if countless iron cavalry were marching in.

Many of the Oirat cavalrymen escorting the prisoners suddenly looked toward the Tatars.

But when many Oirat cavalrymen saw it clearly, their expressions changed drastically.

"not good."

"They are Ming Dynasty cavalry."

"Quickly form ranks."

"The scouts at the front must quickly request reinforcements, swiftly!"

The leader, a commander of five thousand Oirat soldiers, shouted loudly.

echoed.

The surrounding Oirat cavalry quickly converged and dispersed from both sides, forming a defensive formation to protect each other.

At the same time, a cavalry force of several dozen men quickly sped away towards the Oirat direction.

now.

All the Oirat cavalrymen stared in panic at the overwhelming Ming cavalry.

Obviously.

Now that the Ming Dynasty has invaded the northern grasslands, it has already made the Oirat tribe tremble with fear.

soon.

A large number of Ming cavalrymen in red armor quickly rushed over, forming three long lines. One line launched a frontal assault, while the other two lines encircled the Ming cavalry from the left and right.

Just a few dozen breaths.

This Oirat cavalry force was completely surrounded by the Ming army, along with nearly ten thousand Tatar civilians.

Faced with tens of thousands of Ming cavalry, everyone present was terrified and stared in horror.

but.

When the Ming army arrived, they did not launch an immediate attack, but instead adopted an encirclement strategy.

Until later.

A general dressed in imposing black armor slowly rode forward.

It was none other than Zhu Ying, the grandson of the Ming emperor.

Several days ago.

With the Tatar royal court settled, Zhu Ying immediately led 30,000 Ming cavalry to the border between the two tribes.

today!

After a relentless pursuit, they finally caught up with the Oirat army.

"It seems."

"Your Oirat tribe is going to join the war."

Zhu Ying rode forward, glanced at the Oirat cavalry lined up in front of him, and said coldly.

"This must be the Crown Prince of the Ming Dynasty, right?"

The leading Oirat general, with a hint of trepidation, respectfully addressed Zhu Yingdao.

Zhu Ying simply watched indifferently without saying a word.

“Our tribe…our tribe has not come here to be enemies of the Ming Dynasty, but to bring back our people who were once trapped in Tatar territory.”

"If we bring them back, the Oirat will never commit any offenses against the Ming Dynasty."

"I implore the Crown Prince to make the wise decision."

The Oirat general spoke very respectfully, afraid of angering the killing god before him.

Although the Oirat Mongols did not participate in the war when the Tatars marched south into the Ming Dynasty, they were already aware of the Tatars' crushing defeat and the current strength of the Ming army.

"The Great Khan of Tatars has submitted to the Ming Dynasty. From now on, the territory of Tatars is the territory of our Ming Dynasty, and the people of Tatars are the people of our Ming Dynasty."

"You have invaded the territory of my Great Ming Dynasty, and you think a mere 'clear judgment' will make me let you go?"

"Is it ridiculous?"

Zhu Ying said coldly.

Hear this.

The Oirat general clearly hadn't anticipated this, and the Tatars submitted?

How can this be?

How could the territory of the Tatars belong to the Ming Dynasty?

It's also at this time!
Tread.

ta ta ta

From the rear.

A series of footsteps followed.

The banner of the Oirat king was particularly conspicuous in the distance.

only.

They stopped when they approached the border with the Tatars.

Obviously.

The Ming army has already reached this area, and they seem to be holding back, not daring to cross the border.

"The Banner of the Oirat King".

Zhu Ying glanced at it and immediately spotted the banner of the Oirat king.

but.

This large Oirat army stopped outside the border.

Follow closely.

Then a cavalry force of several hundred men came, escorting the royal banner.

Not a moment.

A middle-aged man appeared before Zhu Ying; clearly, he was Choros, the Great Khan of the Oirat tribe.

With the fall of the Northern Yuan.

The Northern Yuan dynasty split into three parts.

The power has already been separated.

After seeing Zhu Ying.

This Choros was very polite; he immediately dismounted, performed a steppe greeting, placed his right hand on his chest, and bowed deeply: "Cholos, the Great Khan of the Oirat tribe, greets His Highness the Crown Prince of the Great Ming Dynasty."

He looked at him with a smile and great respect.

They were even very humble.

If it were an ordinary person, they would really be fooled by his attitude.

However, Zhu Ying glanced at it calmly and said, "This place is now part of the territory of our Great Ming Dynasty. The entire territory of the Tatars belongs to the Great Ming Dynasty. You, the Oirat, have sent troops to invade our territory. Do you not intend to give me an explanation?"

Hear this!

Choros's expression changed, and he felt an indescribable surprise in his heart.

Obviously.

The fact that the Tatar territory was annexed by the Ming Dynasty was not a good thing for the Oirat Mongols.

but.

This shock was only momentary. Choros quickly recovered and laughed, "I didn't know that the Tatars had submitted to the Ming Dynasty. After all, my people have always had conflicts with the Tatars. This time, the Tatars are ungrateful and have invaded the Ming Dynasty from the south. My Oirat troops have come here, which is equivalent to helping the Ming Dynasty weaken the Tatars."

"The Oirat do not wish to be enemies with the Ming Dynasty."

Obviously.

Choros held the belief that one shouldn't hit a smiling face.

As long as you maintain a good attitude, Zhu Ying will find no reason to cause trouble.

"Since the Oirat Khan has already put it this way..."

"I am not a warmonger."

"Let's assume that you Oirat are unaware that this place is within the territory of our Great Ming, but..." Zhu Ying's gaze fell on Choros, with a scrutinizing look: "Your troops have invaded our territory and plundered our people. Today, you can be spared from war, but all Oirat troops that have entered our territory must remove their armor and horses and may leave."

"Otherwise, then let's fight."

The words fell.

Zhu Ying's eyes held no attempt to conceal his murderous intent.

The Ming soldiers around him were all watching intently, awaiting Zhu Ying's orders.

Only one command is needed.

These 30,000 Ming cavalrymen will unleash their overwhelming power and crush these Oirat troops in an instant.

They removed their armor and abandoned their warhorses.

Leave this place.

no doubt.

This was a humiliation for the Oirat Mongols.

But Zhu Ying also expressed an attitude.

This gave Ross the choice.

If he chooses to fight head-on, Zhu Ying would be more than happy to do so, as it would be the perfect opportunity to launch a fierce attack.

After hearing Zhu Ying's words.

Choros's face also turned somewhat ugly, and he even clenched his fists. However, after struggling for a moment, he relaxed his clenched fists, his eyes filled with resentment and helplessness.

"Remove your armor and dismount."

Choros turned his head and shouted to the thousands of Oirat cavalry behind him.

"Sweat profusely."

Several Oirat generals looked at Choros, clearly feeling humiliated and resentful.

"I don't want to say it a second time," Choros said coldly.

Under his intimidation.

These thousands of Oirat cavalry dared not disobey, and could only dismount, throw their weapons on the ground, and remove their leather and iron armor.

Choros, with a smile on his face, looked at Zhu Ying with great respect: "Your Highness, may we leave now?"

Looking at him, he seems to know how to bend and stretch.

Zhu Ying's eyes also showed a hint of surprise.

but.

They didn't care much.

"You may leave now, but if anyone dares to cross the border and enter my Great Ming in the future, they will die," Zhu Ying said coldly.

"In that case, thank you, Your Highness."

Choros then placed his right hand on his chest in a salute, turned around directly, and shouted, "Return to the Oirat!"

He strode away.

These Oirat soldiers, who had disarmed themselves and abandoned their warhorses, also followed suit.

However, one can sense that they must be extremely unwilling at this moment.

"Choros".

"It's quite interesting."

"No wonder he was able to control a clan after the fall of the Northern Yuan."

Looking at Choros's performance, Zhu Ying was indeed quite impressed.

only.

Now that Zhu Ying has swallowed up the vast territory of the Tatars, he has no spare strength to conquer the Oirats, and there is no need to create further trouble for the time being.

and.

The Tatars have been subdued.

There is still one stubborn problem to solve.

This stubbornness was something Zhu Ying had been concerned about for many years; it was something that had to be done if he wanted to change the fate of China.

That's the Jianzhou Tribe, the Jurchen Tartars.

Only by eliminating them can the northeastern borders of the Ming Dynasty enjoy lasting peace and stability; only by eliminating them can the so-called "braid slaves" never appear again.

"Your Highness."

"This Oirat Khan seems to be good at lying low; he is no ordinary man."

Lan Yu rode closer and spoke respectfully.

He was also extremely accurate in judging people.

"To become a Great Khan is certainly no simple feat."

"Ignore it."

"In this border region, let Duke Cao send some engineers to build outposts, one every five li, to defend against the Oirat," Zhu Ying said slowly.

The strategy set now.

First, take control of the Tatar territory, then destroy the Tatars.

After stabilizing and digesting the situation, it continued to expand.

You can’t become fat by eating all at once.

“Yes.” Lan Yu nodded immediately.

"Your Highness."

"What to do with these people?"

Liu Lei was referring to the tens of thousands of Tatar civilians in the area.

At this moment, they were completely surrounded by the Ming cavalry, and they all huddled together, trembling as they looked at the Ming army.

They seemed to fear that the Ming Dynasty would directly massacre them.

See this.

Zhu Ying slowly rode forward, glanced down at the Tatar civilians, and then said, "I am Zhu Ying."

As soon as these words fell.

The Tatar civilians' expressions changed drastically upon hearing this.

"Zhu Ying."

"The Crown Prince of the Ming Dynasty, that god of death."

"He...it really is him."

"It's over, we're doomed."

"It is said that he slaughtered every tribe he encountered, and this practice never stopped."

"He won't let us go."

"..."

Many Tatars turned deathly pale, some even collapsing to the ground in terror, while the children burst into tears.

The name Zhu Ying was no less intimidating to the Yuan people in the north than Bai Qi was to the Zhao state during the Warring States period.

It can be said.

In this era, no one could compare to Zhu Ying's infamous reputation.

"His Highness's name is truly a nightmare for these Yuan people."

"They were all terrified as soon as the name was mentioned."

"Yes."

"It seems that from now on, His Highness's name will truly stop people from crying at night on this grassland."

"This is the fame earned through battle..."

Many soldiers couldn't help but discuss it, but without a doubt, they were all filled with pride.

This is their prince.

"Do not worry."

"These days are different."

“In the past, the Tatars were the enemy of the Ming Dynasty. I will not show any mercy to my enemies.”

"And now, your Khan has submitted to the Ming Dynasty!"

"The entire Tatar population has been incorporated into our Great Ming Dynasty and has become part of the Great Ming Empire."

"I too will become one of your lords."

"I will show no mercy to my enemies."

"As for my people, I treat them with kindness and grace." Zhu Ying spoke slowly, his voice carrying outwards with the support of his inner strength.

Listen to Zhu Ying's words.

The Tatars here remained wary, watching Zhu Ying and the surrounding Ming army.

Obviously.

Having experienced the ravages of war.

They won't easily believe a few words.

After all, the two countries were originally mortal enemies.

"I know."

"You might not believe anything I say now."

"But time will tell."

"Whether in the heart of our Great Ming Empire or on this vast grassland, the most primal pursuit of a human being is nothing more than having enough to eat and wear."

“When the Northern Yuan was in power, you imposed heavy taxes and the Northern Yuan emperor was warlike and aggressive. When the three parts were established, it was the same.”

"However, after the Tatars submit to the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty will solve the problem of food and clothing for all its people."

“You can be allocated pastures, you can be allocated fields, you can be allocated the blessings of being citizens of the Great Ming.”

That's all I have to say.

"I will return here with you, and time will prove everything."

"I will not mistreat any citizen of the Ming Dynasty."

Zhu Ying spoke loudly again, but his voice became gentler.

Although many Tatars still had a lot of doubts, Zhu Ying's words did indeed move many people.
