Daming: I, the emperor who trains the carpenter

Why is it obvious that the Tatars can't even defeat the Qing Dynasty?

How dare you provoke Daming?

It seems that this matter is outrageous, but it is actually very simple to think about it in another way.

After all, the conflict between the grassland nomads and the Central Plains farming peoples has lasted for thousands of years. Isn’t it normal for the wolves on the grasslands to come to the Central Plains to fight the autumn wind, kill a few people, grab some food, gold and silver, women and livestock?

The Central Plains is vast and abundant, and the population of gold and silver is not bad, and usually the imperial court considers the overall situation, and usually chooses to repair it, and even some nomadic tribes rob the food and population, and in turn seek peace from the imperial court. The imperial court considers face, maybe There will be rewards too.

And this kind of thing is not uncommon, it can even be said to be very common.

Take the Great Wall as an example. Not every part of the Great Wall that stretches for thousands of miles is located in high mountains and built with bricks and stones. Those are only limited to important towns in the capital. Many places are actually a wall of earth, otherwise there would be no It is said that the Great Wall is cut through.

What's more, when Qin Shihuang first built the Great Wall, he didn't consider defensiveness at all. As a fortification with a long snake array, the Great Wall is more offensive than defensive. After all, the Qin army under the leadership of Meng Tian used the Great Wall to attack and beat The same is true for Li Mu, the famous general of Zhao State, for the Xiongnu.

You can't expect a defensive fortification that is mainly offensive. Except for the border towns, most of the Great Wall of later generations is an earthen wall. At most, nomads came to delay the time so that the main force could arrive. Walls are still cheap.

Therefore, considering various factors, the Central Plains Dynasty had a headache when facing the invading nomads. After all, they had nothing but horses, and those who were barefoot were not afraid of wearing shoes. Therefore, the Central Plains Dynasty mostly focused on wooing and appeasing them.

This is true even in the Ming Dynasty.

In many cases, such things as losing face for the sake of face are not uncommon in the past dynasties, which is why the Tatars dared to attack Balenna.

Because Balianna belonged to Ming Dynasty, and now the Tatar tribe and Daming are allies, if the capital of Balianna is lost, can Daming turn against the Tatar tribe?

Just look at the war between the Ming Dynasty and the Manchu Qing Dynasty. If the Manchu Qing Dynasty hadn't taken the initiative to provoke it, it would be impossible for the Ming Dynasty to send troops on its own initiative.

Therefore, in the face of good people, you can point a gun at them without worrying. After all, the ancients said that "a gentleman can be deceived by others."

With all kinds of precedents and seeing the successful cases of his predecessors, Lindan Baltu naturally had the illusion of "I can do it if I go up".

So Lindan Baltu decisively attacked Balianna, as long as he could bite off a piece of meat, then Chahar would be able to heal greatly.

With this in mind, Lindan Baltu sent several cavalry in an attempt to enter Balanadu to plunder people and livestock.

A small group of horse teams ran into Balanadu to steal livestock and kill people. Even if they took advantage of the night, it was difficult to hide their tracks. After all, Balanadu has nine pastoral areas, and each banner in each pastoral area, Each ranch has its own beacon, which can be lit to announce the arrival of enemies.

Therefore, when Chahar's horse team broke into Baliannadu, when a pasture was attacked and a beacon was lit, each beacon was lit, and the cavalry from the pastures under each banner were summoned to chase after them. The two sides chased in the middle of the night until It was not until dawn that Chahar's cavalry team left Balanadu.

Although Chahar's cavalry did not plunder people and livestock this time, they destroyed five pastures. Nearly [-] herdsmen in Balanadu were killed or injured, and more than [-] riders were killed or injured.

When the news was sent to China-Pakistan Lian Nadu, Cao Wenzhao's face suddenly darkened. As soon as the reporter left the big tent, Chen Yawan came in: "Governor Cao!"

Cao Wenzhao looked at Chen Yawan who came in in a hurry, and passed the information without waiting for him to speak: "Even the Dongba was attacked. The Chahar Department of Lindan Baltu did it. They have already attacked us."

Chen Yawan directly patted the table angrily: "This Lindan Baltu is still an ally of my Ming Dynasty, and he actually attacked my Ming Dynasty's territory at night!"

Cao Wenzhao's face is also not good-looking: "Recently, we have more and more conflicts with the Chahar Department. The governor also considered that the Chahar Department will have a big conflict with us, but I didn't expect them to dare to attack at night."

Chen Yawan looked at Cao Wenzhao: "Governor Cao, we can't just sit and wait for death. What if the Chahar Department raids again and again and robs our people and livestock in Baliannadu?"

Cao Wenzhao snorted coldly: "This governor will never sit still and wait for death."

"Brother Chen, I'll leave it to you to appease the herdsmen. Comfort the herdsmen and don't let the herdsmen have doubts. The most important thing is to have a stable jaw."

"As for the Chahar department, the governor will solve it!"

As long as it is resolved, it will be resolved. Cao Wenzhao has no intention of delaying at all, and immediately ordered to beat the drums and gather the generals.

Since the New Deal in the second year of the Apocalypse, there has never been a case of Da Ming not fighting back when he was beaten!
"General!"

After the arrival of the generals, Cao Wenzhao did not make any detours, and all the troops went straight to and fro, and Cao Wenzhao was no exception.

Looking around at the generals, Cao Wenzhao said: "Everyone knows what happened last night. The Chahar tribe violated the covenant with me, Daming, and attacked my Balian Nadu at night."

"This matter, we can't forget it like this. The army pulled out the camp and went to the Chahar Grassland. I was going to ask Lindan Baltu what he was thinking!"

All the generals clasped their fists together: "Here!"

As Cao Wenzhao issued a military order, the troops scattered in various pastoral areas immediately gathered in Dongba Liandu. Nadu, together with the [-] Mongolian cavalry that had been mobilized here, headed for the Chahar Grassland in mighty force.

Tens of thousands of cavalry marched with great momentum. The mountains, rivers, sun, and moon flags of the Ming army were fluttering in the cold wind of early spring. Cao Wenzhao's large banner of the Chinese army marked the identity of this cavalry: the governor of the Ming Dynasty and Mongolia Under his command, Balianna belongs to the cavalry!
When Cao Wenzhao's army came to the border of the Chahar Grassland, Cao Wenzhao ordered to set up camp on the one hand, and on the other hand sent envoys to question Lindan Baltu.

However, in the face of the envoy sent by Cao Wenzhao, Lindan Baltu appeared extremely arrogant: "The herdsmen in the grassland are all the subjects of this Khan, and if this Khan disposes of his own subjects, what does it matter to you, Daming?"

"Tell you governor, Ben Khan hasn't settled with him yet for killing my Chahar warrior!"

"If he retreats now, Ben Khan can still let him go, otherwise Ben Khan will send an envoy to the capital to play him a book to break the covenant, and see how he will explain to the Ming emperor!"

"If you are sensible, go back quickly. If he doesn't retreat, prepare to go to war!"

After the envoy brought back Lindan Baltu's body intact, Cao Wenzhao looked very calm, and was not angry at all because of Lindan Baltu's arrogance: "Go and tell Lindan Baltu to start a war. The governor is waiting for him here!"

After receiving Cao Wenzhao's reply, Lin Dan Baltu's hands were shaking in anger: "It's really true."

"Anyone dares to challenge Ben Khan!"

"The ministries and allies did not listen to the orders of this Khan, and Jiannu also came to the grasslands to challenge the majesty of this Khan, and now even the people of the Ming Dynasty have come to find bad luck for this Khan!"

"If Ben Khan shrinks back in the face of this famous general, how do other tribes think of Ben Khan, and how do they think of the Chahar tribe?"

"Mingdi sent a messenger, within three days, Ben Khan will see six thousand riders under the banner!"

It has to be said that although the name of Lindan Baltu, the Mongolian Khan, is not recognized by the big tribes such as Horqin, Ordos, and Tumed, it is still very prestigious on the Chahar grassland.

In three days, six thousand cavalry really appeared under Lindan Baltu's banner. The leaders of the Chahar tribe, the leaders still believed in their sweat, not to mention that this was a war with Balanadu , It's not playing Huang Taiji.

There is no benefit in defeating Huang Taiji, but in defeating Balian Nadu, there are hundreds of thousands of followers, countless cattle, sheep and wealth!

Even for these herdsmen's cattle and sheep, the leaders of the Chahar tribe will support Lindan Baltu and Cao Wenzhao to fight!

woohoo
woohoo
On the grassland in early spring, the melted ice and snow melted into the thawed rivers and converged into several large rivers on the grassland, and the air was still tinged with the chill of ice and snow.

At the border of the Chahar Grassland, cavalrymen gathered here from all over the grassland. From a high altitude, the cavalrymen gathered together like black streams from all directions. These cavalrymen merged continuously to form a black torrent , mighty, sweeping everything.

Just like the flood gathered by the melting ice and snow of the snow-capped mountains on the grassland, it carries the energy to wash away everything.

This is the cavalry of the Chahar Department. Under the banner of Lindan Baltu, six cavalry of [-] cavalry gathered here, preparing to fight the Ming army.

On the other side of the pasture, [-] Ming troops and [-] Mongolian cavalry have also opened up their battle formations. A group of generals are standing on both sides with guns. The arrow is in the center, and the two wings are cavalrymen who are about to move.

Cao Wenzhao was dressed neatly, and looked coldly at the black line that seemed to spread across the sky. It was the Mongolian cavalry who had already drawn up their positions.

Lindan Baltu was riding a steed with a golden scimitar on his waist. Looking at the cavalry gathered around him, he couldn't help showing a proud and wild smile on his face: "Sixty thousand cavalry! Sixty thousand iron cavalry!"

"On the grassland today, is there any tribe that can pull out [-] cavalry like my Chahar tribe?"

"It's a mere general, don't stay in the Great Wall well, you have to go outside the Great Wall to die!"

A leader rode his horse and held a knife and was eager to try: "Khan, the Ming people have no spearmen, shield soldiers, and even repellent deer. Their defense line is completely vulnerable."

"As long as we launch a charge, we can easily destroy their army array!"

Lindan Baltu agrees with this very much. It is not that he has never dealt with the Ming army. Although the Ming army has cavalry, it is still dominated by infantry and firearms. The hands and musketeers are in the middle, and there is no spearman shield hand in front. How can they resist the charging cavalry?
Looking at the thin army formation of the Ming army on the opposite side, Lindan Baltu laughed and said, "The Ming army is so rampant, they don't even know that on this grassland, is it our Mongols' world?"

"Who is going to cut through their army formation!"

A group of leaders rushed to sign up: "Khan, let me take my sons there!"

"Khan, our warriors have been waiting for a long time!"

"Khan, my department has always been your sharpest scimitar, let's go!"

Looking at the extremely thin Ming army formation, these leaders thought it was a soft persimmon, and they could easily tear through this line of defense and rush in with just one bite.

Seeing the bravery of his subordinates, Lindan Baltu also felt his blood surge. If the men of the Chahar tribe are all so brave, what is Huang Taiji?
Now, the time has come to restore the glory of Great Mongolia!
As long as he wins this battle, the Chahar tribe can be united again by him. With the population of Balanadu, cattle and sheep, the Chahar tribe is still the most powerful tribe in Monan, and even Ordos, Tumed , Horqin and other tribes will kneel down in front of him again!
In a word, Great Mongolia has its glory in the past, and the great khans of all dynasties have contributed a lot. Now it is my duty, Lindan Baltu, to reproduce the glory of Great Mongolia!
Especially at this moment, how could I, the mighty Mongolian Khan, not take the lead in the charge? !

Pulling out the golden scimitar that symbolizes his identity as the Great Khan of Mongolia, Lindan Baltu said, "My sons, there is no need to rob. Ben Khan guarantees that you will all get pastures, cattle, sheep, and population."

"Let Changshengtian bless us now, sons and daughters, follow me!"

A leader also drew out his scimitar and whipped his horse: "Come on!"

Accompanied by the loud shouts of killing, the earth began to tremble. The [-] Chahar cavalry rode their horses to charge, and the Mongolian horses began to move their hooves slowly, gradually increasing their speed from a trot, and finally sprinting.

The charge launched by tens of thousands of cavalry, the mighty torrent seems to be able to destroy everything, and its momentum can be said to be as turbulent as the waves hit the shore, shaking the ground and shaking the mountains.

Ordinary people face a black line that gradually enlarges in front of their eyes, and then the cavalry that reaches the sky and boundless. They will fight in two directions, feel powerless in their hearts, and look at the menacing cavalry that is even more timid. Limp on the ground not knowing what to do.

Cao Wenzhao watched Lindan Baltu's cavalry charge with a binoculars. Calculating the distance silently, Cao Wenzhao said, "Send the order, the general will fire the cannon, and file off the vigor of his cavalry!"

With the waving of the command flag, the cannons of the generals opened fire immediately, and with the rumbling roar and the rising smoke, one after another was fired, and exploded among the cavalry of the Chahar Department.

In an instant, the sound of explosions sounded one after another, and the flames suddenly ignited, people turned their backs on their backs, and at the center of the bomb explosion, the Chahar cavalry was blown to pieces with their horses and men, and the sky was covered with blood mist accompanied by surging mud and dust, and gunpowder smoke The breath of the battlefield continues to permeate.

Cao Wenzhao continued to look at the Chahar cavalry, watching these cavalry turn their backs against their own men and continue to charge under the rumbling artillery fire, approaching a little bit, and they were close to [-] steps away from their own army formation. At this distance, the cavalry took a few breaths can rush!

"Commanding, mother-child cannon, tiger crouching cannon, group of leopards galloping and firing arrows together, breaking their guts!"

The commanding flag officer immediately waved the commanding flag to signal the group of leopards to run across and shoot arrows.

The side doors of the carriages loaded with leopards' arrows were opened, revealing rows of dark holes. As the fuzes were ignited, the piercing scream sounded on the battlefield again!

shhhhhhhh!

The pungent gunpowder smoke rose, the flames flickered continuously, rockets galloped out, hit the cavalry group of the Chahar Department and exploded!

Boom boom boom boom!
This time, it was a bigger explosion!

Pieces of flames exploded among the cavalry of the Chahar Department, and a large number of cavalry were directly thrown off their horses by the impact of the explosion, while the cavalry at the center of the explosion were blown to pieces, and their flesh and blood flew everywhere.

The Chahar cavalry, who had just charged against the general's cannon, were completely shattered in the face of this wave of intensive rocket attacks.

They could still charge against the artillery fire, but the dense, seemingly endless rockets directly extinguished the blood of the Chahar warriors and poured a basin of cold water on them!
Not to mention these ordinary herdsmen and riders, it is the leaders of Lindan Baltu and Chahar Department. Facing the fires and explosions, the flames and gunpowder smoke all over the battlefield, they all feel powerless and desperate: Ming Why do people have such terrible weapons? !
Watching the tribes around him being blown to pieces, seeing the screams and wailing of the soldiers on the battlefield filled with gunpowder smoke, the blood-drenched soil with the hot touch of gunpowder was blown into the sky and then sprinkled As the rain fell, the entire battlefield seemed to be raining blood. These were the blood of Chahar Buerlang!
Lindan Baltu's eyes were red, and there were fewer and fewer warriors around him. He gradually had an illusion that he was charging alone under endless artillery fire.

"Sweating profusely! I can't rush anymore, the sons and daughters can't take it anymore!"

"Khan, get out!"

Lindan Baltu looked at the tragic battlefield around him with red eyes. Even his big banner had been eroded by blood and gunpowder smoke. The explosion of shells had smashed his big banner to pieces. He suffered heavy casualties.

The sense of powerlessness that had once been chased by Huang Taiji surged into his heart again, Lindan Baltu gritted his teeth: "Withdraw!"

"Withdraw!"

When Lindan Baltu began to retreat, after the large banner of the Chinese army turned around, the Chahar cavalry who were still charging against the roaring artillery fire of the Ming army were at a loss: Why did the large banner retreat?
The big banner is the spiritual symbol of an army. It represents the location of the generals in the army. Now that the big banner is retreating, doesn't it mean that the sweat has run away? !

As soon as this thought appeared, it really lingered in my mind.

For a while, apart from the wailing and screams on the battlefield, it was the cries of the tribesmen:
"The sweat is gone! The sweat is gone!"

"Khan didn't care about us and ran away by himself!"

"The leaders have all run away, we are defeated!"

"Lost, lost, lost!"

The army rushes to kill. On the vast battlefield, the soldiers and horses in the rear bury their heads and follow the people in front to charge. When the people in front cry and say that the army has been defeated and start to run away, the soldiers and horses in the rear are at a loss. , will blindly follow the people who retreated in front and run together.

For a time, there were chahar cavalry fleeing all over the mountains and plains, and the army was defeated like a mountain.
