Chapter 1271 All Armies Come to Invite

On the other hand, the army established by Zeng Yunfeng is nothing more than two types. The first type is armored infantry, and the second type is cavalry. Kaifeng was transported from the German defense line, and the Central Plains War was imminent.

People from Zhu Yuanzhang's barracks in Peixian County neighed and screamed, and when Ying Wugou returned to the Beggar Clan, the sound of the army preparing for war spread in all directions, and no one believed the rumors.

Although what Zhu'er announced at the beginning was to conquer Dadu within five years, everyone was already full of confidence. After all, all the units of the rebel army had already accumulated a lot of food, grass and armaments.

All ministries are eager to try, the Great Yuan court sees the building will collapse, how can these people not think about the merits of the dragon.

With the establishment of Prince Wu's Mansion, many people even wrote letters to ask for a fight.

Zhu'er took the memorial and placed it in front of Zeng Yunfeng's case and said: "All the generals are invited to fight, the morale is high, and the thief will surely be defeated!"

Zeng Yunfeng did not answer, but pushed aside many letters asking for war and said: "Don't you hear that Zhao Kuo and his like, there are many people who talk about armies on paper, but few who can actually attack the city."

Zhu'er shook his head, "How can you say that? Dengzhou generals, Zhu Yuanzhang, Chen Youliang, etc. are eager to try."

Zeng Yunfeng was very helpless, "This is a battle to destroy the country. How do you know that the current emperor of the Yuan Dynasty will not mobilize troops and horses to fight against the capital city with us? Don't think so simply. The Yuan Dynasty has a deep foundation after all. I know that there is no other force behind her to support her."

Zhu'er heard this, but thought for a while, but continued: "Master, the Dayuan court is short of money and food, and the treasury is not full. It is not so easy to mobilize an army to fight me?"

The corner of Zeng Yunfeng's mouth raised slightly and he continued: "There are two advantages and disadvantages between the Yuan Dynasty court and me. The Yuan Dynasty court's advantage lies in the cavalry, while our side's advantage lies in sufficient money, food and military equipment, and people's hearts are available, so they should be the ones who are anxious, not us."

"The defense line of the Great Wall from Kaifeng Guide to Tianjin has already been established. Our urgent request to fight would have weakened our momentum. It is better to let them go to war first. It is better to hurt one finger than to cut off ten fingers. You always understand this truth. "

Zhu'er frowned and said: "But, rudder master, now the Dayuan court can't shrink back, and we can't help him. Now they are guarding Dadu, relying on Dadu to dispatch troops and horses, and sending troops from Taihang Baxing to support us." , if we don’t take Dadu with the power of thunder, I’m afraid there will be endless troubles.”

"Dadu is not the place where I founded our country. It is just a border town. Today's Dadu is in charge of Yanyun sixteen prefectures in the north, and Koryo and Dongying in the east."

"Don't be too anxious right now. Most of the troops, especially the emperor's, will not retreat easily. It may be a protracted bloody battle. I don't need to worry. It's useless to be anxious."

"Nowadays, it is necessary to dispatch Dengzhou soldiers and horses out of Bohai Bay, cut off the Liaoxi Corridor, and make them unable to advance or retreat. It is even more important to drive them to the Mongolian grasslands instead of letting them retreat to Liaodong."

"Secondly, let all the Jurchen tribes in Haizhou and Jianzhou turn against the Mongols, otherwise, it will be a bit stretched to use our cavalry alone to compete with these grassland tribes, especially now that the horse policy has just come into effect. , has not yet worked out.”

"In terms of the total number of cavalry, the rebel army has no more than [-] soldiers and horses, and they are distributed in Guanzhong, Guide, Kaifeng, and Wu'an. Therefore, we have no great advantage in single-handed battles on the plains."

"However, the Great Yuan court gathered a large number of war horses and wanted to fight us in a big battle on this plain. This is completely unfavorable to us, so the suggestions made by these generals will not be considered for the time being."

Zhu'er said again: "But the rudder master, the morale can't be discouraged. The rebel army of the beggar gang has already prepared well. At the same time, there are many spies in the capital city. We can take back the capital city without bloodshed."

Zeng Yunfeng looked at Zhu'er and said with some amusement: "I want to take down Dadu, not make Dadu surrender!"

"If these Mongols can't see the true strength of the rebel army, the Mongolian princes and nobles will flee to Mobei and continue to choose people to fight with us. At that time, the leaders of various tribes will be far away in Mobei, so what should we do if we move around? tidy."

"If my predictions are correct, Ruyang King Chahan, who sits in the town of Shanxi, has long wanted to retreat, and his son Wang Baobao even wants to retreat to the Mobei Grassland. In this way, if we conquer Dadu, wouldn't it be letting the tiger go back to the mountain, just for Chahan and others? When the rope is untied, all parts of Mongolia will be divided into various tribes. At that time, should we fight or pull or do something else?" Zeng Yunfeng looked at the spider in front of him with a half-smile, but the spider couldn't answer.

In fact, Zeng Yunfeng's worries had already been staged once in the history of the Ming Dynasty.

At the beginning, Zhu Yuanzhang wiped out the Dayuan court, some of the orthodox Mongolian princes and nobles were arrested, and some were driven to Mobei. Generals such as Wang Baobao still successfully established a new Mongolian tribe.

Various tribes such as Wala and Wuliangha were established one after another. After the death of Zhu Yuanzhang, Emperor Yongle Zhu Di had to recruit a large army to conquer Mongolia after he ascended the throne. The conquest also led to wars with the grassland peoples in the late Ming Dynasty, which did not stop for a moment.

Except for the opening of border trade by the Central Plains Dynasty, there was no way to stop these prairie people from going south at other times.

Later, in order to prevent looting, the Ming Dynasty built the famous Great Wall of the Ming Dynasty in the Central Plains civilization. This Great Wall is said to be a world monument, let alone a compromise of the Ming court.

In the later period of the Ming Dynasty, especially after the Tumu Fortress Change, it was simply unable to carry out large-scale conquests, so it could only build extensive city blockhouses and even build the Great Wall, hoping to keep the grassland peoples out of the customs.

But it is not so easy to gather enemies outside the country. The final demise of the Ming court was due to its defensive foreign policy.

The final demise of the Ming Dynasty is said to be broken by Li Zicheng, rather it was dragged to death by the defensive war strategy, and the cost of the frontier army is ridiculously high every year.

The Jurchen iron cavalry entered the pass, Wu Sangui opened the Shanhaiguan pass, and the Ming court swallowed its last breath. All these all show a truth, that is, if you stay for a long time, you will lose.

Now, what Zeng Yunfeng hopes most is to establish and restore the horse administration, completely beat back the so-called cavalry of the Great Yuan court, and maintain a high-pressure situation on the grassland.

Zeng Yunfeng would rather see various local powers emerge in the future than see alien invasions.
