Back to Ming Dynasty as Zhu Biao

Chapter 159 Grassland Situation
Zhu Biao pulled her shoulders and said, "Look, you're not as smart as she is, not as strong as her, not as bold as your sister, not as proficient in fighting as Uncle Xu's leader of the army, so you're just getting along, so I'll just make do with you."

"I don't want to speak to Your Highness."

"Sure?"

"My father hasn't told His Majesty and Uncle Chang yet." Miao Wei said softly.

Zhu Biao said: "I will find a way to solve this matter."

"Brother, let me help you." Zhu Di's voice came from outside the tent.

Zhu Biao went out with him, and Zhu Laosi, who had been exposed by eavesdropping, had already run away without a trace.

"Fourth, fourth!" Zhu Biao yelled to the surroundings several times, but Zhu Di had already run away and disappeared.

Chang Yuchun returned to the camp in the evening, carrying the head of Zhang Chen, the fugitive. Lan Yu and the others followed closely behind and went deep into the grassland to pursue the enemy for hundreds of miles. Fearing an ambush, they led their troops back.

Emperor Yuan Shun retreated to Mobei and Monan, and the Northern Yuan Dynasty was still a unified regime. Originally, Wang Baobao would be the biggest resistance to attacking the grassland and Gansu.

But this strong enemy of Ming Dynasty was intercepted and killed by Zhu Biao and Zhao Yunsheng in Shanxi, so the so-called strong enemy disappeared.

"Infantry, cavalry, and firearms soldiers should cooperate with each other. Firearms soldiers can restrain the heavy cavalry of the Yuan thief when necessary." Zhu Biao said to Xu Da and Chang Yuchun.

"Your Highness is right." Liu Bowen said to Xu Da: "It will take some time for Fu Deng's army to arrive in Gansu.

It happened that General Chang was tired from running around, so we rested for a few days, and when the time was right, we joined forces and went straight to the grassland. "

"Those thieves, his grandma's are really hard to beat. Now that they go back to their old den, they will have more advantages." Chang Yuchun said.

"10,000+ cavalry, 10,000+ infantry, as long as we cooperate with each other and coordinate operations, we are fully prepared, and Bei Yuan is nothing to be afraid of." Xu Da poured a glass of wine and said.

"Since we have rested for a few days, I just have an idea. Beiyuan's heavy cavalry is the main force, so our firearms soldiers are a sharp weapon." Zhu Biao looked at them and said.

"Although the firearms soldiers are sharp swords, their number is too small compared to the heavy cavalry of the Northern Yuan Dynasty." Liu Bowen said.

Zhu Biao nodded: "I have already thought about this question, just these days I have used our army's heavy cavalry and firearms soldiers to conduct some drills. From their battles, we can sum up experience and find the Beiyuan heavy cavalry. defect.

When cavalry, infantry, and firearms soldiers are engaged in multi-armed joint operations, these Beiyuan cavalry soldiers are waiting to be hanged and beaten, and they will never be given a chance to escape. "

After Zhu Biao finished speaking, everyone thought about it.

Historically, one of the reasons for Xu Da's disastrous defeat was the heavy snowfall, which made many Ming soldiers unable to adapt and their combat effectiveness weakened.At that time, Li Wenzhong's East Route Army encountered the unpredictable weather in the desert and was not familiar with the terrain.

He led his troops to the Tula River, where the Northern Yuan Taishi Manzi and Harazhang led the crowd to cross the river, and detected the actions of the Ming army in advance.

This is a historical development.

I postponed the recovery of the Shanxi area, and killed Wang Baobao in advance, so that he didn't even have a chance to jump around.

Zhu Biao is not sure where the future history will go.

In order to prevent historical events, Zhu Biao decided to follow what they had just discussed.

After the discussion was over, Chang Yuchun began to talk about what he had seen and heard along the way.

"I, Chang Yuchun, must behead the Northern Yuan general Ji Hachu and hang it on the flagpole."

"Yes, me too." Sapphire said.

Li Wenzhong sat next to him and listened to them with Liu Bowen.

"Uncle Chang, what's going on here? What happened to that general Jiha?" Zhu Biao sat aside and became interested.

"This man had close contacts with the Yuanliang King of Yunnan. Jiha went out to burn, kill and loot in Majiazhuang in the northwest of Gansu Province. He burned 640 shi of grain and killed [-] people from our Ming army. Every soldier's bloody revenge, I will get it back from this Zihar."

Chang Yuchun crushed the wine glass.

Xu Da looked at Zhu Biao: "This matter. What's your opinion, Your Highness?"

"When Jiha went out, it ended up falling." Zhu Biao then said: "For the attack on the Northern Yuan Dynasty, the main force of our Ming army mainly came from Jiangnan, and the number of war horses was very limited.

If you rush into the Mobei Grassland, you will have no advantage in fighting. This is a problem that we must solve now.

The second point is that infantry, cavalry, and firearms soldiers should all be drilled together. Our soldiers are more refined than numerous. "

Liu Bowen shook his head: "War horses are difficult. Our court needs time to restore the current economy and consolidate our rule. The Liang king of the Northern Yuan Dynasty occupied Yunnan, which is our worry for the future of the Northern Expedition."

Zhu Biao nodded: "Now we need to actively defend and start multi-army combined drills. We need to solve the problem of war horses and prevent the Northern Yuan Liang King from going south."

"What does Your Highness mean?" Xu Da said, "Don't we defend and not attack?"

Zhu Biao shook his head: "We've all come to the door of the Yuan thief's lair, how can we not beat them, we must beat them, and we have to get rid of the nest.

I have a bold idea. What we have to do now is to add war horses to the Northern Yuan Liang King in Yunnan and the heavy cavalry on the grasslands.Solving these three, attacking the grassland will not be a problem. "

Xu Da said: "Your Highness is right, but Fu Youde and Deng Yu haven't arrived yet, we need to wait.

To deal with heavy cavalry, drill firearms soldiers and infantry, cavalry can be.But how to solve the problem of war horses. "

After thinking about it, Zhu Biao said: "Now we have to actively defend and train troops in Gansu. Discuss the strategy against the heavy cavalry on the grassland. It will be easy to solve this."

"What about Yunnan? I'm afraid the King Liang of the Northern Yuan Dynasty will divert him from going south." Liu Bowen said.

"I'm afraid of his mother, I'll kill him to death." Chang Yuchun said carelessly, and suddenly coughed after speaking.

Zhu Biao took a look and hurriedly said, "Uncle Chang, are you okay?"

"It's okay, keep talking." Chang Yuchun waved his hand.

Liu Bowen said: "In the Yunnan area, it may be difficult for Liang Wang of the Northern Yuan Dynasty to rely on the support of the local chieftain in Yunnan to separate himself here."

Back then, Lan Yu, Mu Ying and Fu Youde took five months to conquer Yunnan.Counterinsurgency is a bit slow.

But now, as long as a few of them can contain Beiyuan Liangwang when they attack Beiyuan here, so that he does not pose a threat to Nanjing, it will be fine.

As for the army stationed in Gansu, the others can win a big victory if the Bei Yuan collapses within the effective time period to contain Bei Yuan King Liang.

Zhu Biao told Xu Da his idea.

Chang Yuchun clapped his legs and said, "This plan is fine."

Liu Bowen said: "It's just a little desperate."

"We sent three generals to Yunnan to pretend to attack Yunnan, and the rest stayed behind to destroy Bei Yuan with all their strength during this period. As long as Bei Yuan Liang King is restrained, we will have another chance to enter the grassland."

Xu Da scratched his head and said, "Who is the best?"

"General, I am willing to go." Sapphire stepped forward and said.

"It's better to let Fu Youde go too." Chang Yuchun yelled.

"There is still one person who recommends it, you must have forgotten this person." Zhu Biao said with a smile.

"Who?"

Everyone turned to look at Zhu Biao.

"Mu Ying!"

"Your Highness, I'm here." Mu Ying rushed in from outside the big tent, seeing Chang Yuchun and Xu Da looking at him, she blushed and said, "I heard Your Highness calling me, and I'm getting impatient."

"This is the way to do it." Xu Da stood up and announced the order.

　Thank you for your support.
