Daming, originally wanted to destroy it, but the system came

Chapter 258 A map on the grassland?
At this time, Gui Lichi was entertaining a group of subordinate leaders in the big tent.

On the other side, Zhu Zhen has conquered all eleven tribes of the Natula tribe in the past few days.

Moreover, with Zhu Chu's methods, those he conquered all surrendered from the bottom of their hearts.

Also, this tribe now should be called a Qiqige tribe.

Qi Qige also took the opportunity to win over people's hearts, and also learned Zhu Chu's method, saying that the men who escaped had given up on us, but His Highness came to protect us and liberated us so that we would no longer be the slaves of others.

Shouldn't they follow His Highness?Or do they want to continue being slaves to others?

Even if she said this, who else would resist?

So Zhu Ming soon took control of the situation.

During this period, Zhu Chu also sent a team of people to the Arutai headquarters. One was to send back the good news and also to inform Tumu's tribe.

Although he failed to catch the more than 2 people who escaped, Zhu Chu had already planned to take some cattle and sheep from the Qiqige tribe and send them there as compensation for previous losses.

Of course, as long as he catches those guys with blood on his hands, Zhu Ming will never be lenient. He will kill them without mercy.

Tu Mu also went back. She is no longer needed here.

Mainly because Xu Miaojin always felt that Tu Mu looked at Zhu Chu in a strange way these days, and he no longer dared to let her follow him.

At the same time, Zhu Ming also wanted to contact Wang Fu and wanted to know the situation there.

It just so happened that the cavalry came back today and brought unexpected news.

"Your Majesty, Lord Wang Fu led your one hundred guards. Fortunately, they lived up to their orders. Not only did they annihilate 2 of the 7000 Yahada tribe who attacked the Arutai headquarters, but they also captured 3000 alive, of which 3000 were Except for the half-grown men, the other 1 people are all grown men.”

"In addition, Yahada himself has been killed. And Lord Wang Fu, with the help of Arutai, has subdued all the Yahada tribes. In accordance with your consistent policy, you have completed the return of Yahada, and temporarily decided to let Yahada's My wife is temporarily acting as the leader of the Yahada tribe. This is to prevent those men with evil intentions from continuing to cause trouble."

After all, Wang Fu only has 100 men in his hands, and there are less than 4000 men in Alutai headquarters.

If those more than 1 people suddenly planned to cause chaos, it would really be a big threat.

So Wang Fu made the decision privately and actually appointed a woman, Yahada's wife, as the acting lord of the Yahada tribe.

After listening to the report of the messenger, Zhu Ming greatly admired: "As expected of Wang Fu, I like him very much."

After all, Wang Fu has been following Zhu Zhen for so long, and they all say, "The person who is close to Zhu is red." I am afraid that he has already understood the subtlety of it.

This also made Zhu Ming feel relieved and praised Wang Fu for his reliability.

Now that Wang Fu no longer had to worry, and with the Yahada tribe also conquered, Zhu Zhen not only gained another territory on the grassland, but also added a large number of people.

Because there are not a large number of people fleeing the Yahada tribe, there are a total of 8 people.

In addition, the total number of Qiqige tribes totaled 6, not counting the [-] strong men who fled and the many young women who were taken away.

Therefore, Zhu Chu already has a population of at least 20 on the grassland.

And its total population has reached 680 million.

It's almost the end of November, and by next month, he will be able to harvest more resource tax revenue. Zhu Zhen is naturally very happy.

But he was happy, so Zhu Miao still asked Xu Miaojin to call Qiqige in.

"Your Highness, are you looking for me?" Qiqige came to the tent. Now, her attitude towards Zhu Zhen has changed. Her tone and eyes are filled with sincere admiration.

Because Zhu Chu was really not just mean to her, but also to the girls in the tribe.

This is simply a gentleman.

Even the Ming army did not say anything to the people in the tribe, and sometimes even took the initiative to help.

The men ran away happily, but those left behind had many inconveniences.

On the contrary, these Ming troops helped a lot.

This also brought Ming and Meng closer together.

What's more, her position as the female leader was conferred by Zhu Zhen. She relied on Zhu Zhen to succeed in everything. Even if she didn't rely on physical ties, she couldn't get rid of Zhu Zhen.

It can be said that both sides are prosperous, and she is unilaterally relying on Zhu Ming. As for herself, it is not a loss for both sides.

Her loss did not hurt Zhu Zhen half a bit. On the contrary, the higher Zhu Zhen's prestige, the greater her reputation.

As a result, Qiqige is about to become a fanatical fan of Zhu Zhen.

Xu Miaojin then walked in, glanced at Qiqi Ge, curled her lips and walked to the stove nearby to boil a pot of tea for Zhu Chu.

She wasn't used to drinking milk tea, so she drank the tea in a pot.

"A few days ago, didn't I ask you to inform the people in the tribe and ask them to find a way to contact the men who escaped and try to call them back? How did you do?" Zhu Zhen asked.

Qiqige smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Hey, don't mention it. As Your Highness said, we women, old people and children are all abandoned people. So what if those men are our family members? Many family members can't wait to It’s best that they never come back in this life. Anyway, they can live a good life with His Highness. If the Ming army brothers don’t dislike it, many sisters would like to find a brother to live with. "

Fortunately, Zhu Chu hasn't drank tea yet, otherwise he would have sprayed it out.

You guys are really open-minded, can you tell that even if you live together?

There was no way, mainly because Zhu Yu had trained this army with strict military discipline and good training. After all, they were originally carefully selected by Zhu Yuanzhang to be the bodyguards of King Zhu Xi of Qin. Since they followed Zhu Xi, they finally followed the Ming Lord. , more loyal and reliable.

When comparing the two sides, even many prairie men were outclassed.

In the past, many women in the Arutai tribe had their eyes on these Ming army men, and even Peng Yue and Niu Sheng were in love.

Anyway, as long as the two people are consensual, Zhu Zhen will not care. He just strictly prohibits the behavior of using power for personal gain or bullying the people.

Now Zhu Chu regards these grassland people as his own people, no different from the people of the Han family in the Central Plains.

It is also because of his attitude that the people of each tribe become more loyal.

Now even the women of the Qiqige tribe have begun to eye the men of the Ming army. Zhu Ming smiled bitterly and said: "It seems that the women on this grassland are really tough. We men have to be careful about our own safety when we go out." ”

"Hmph, whoever dares to steal my Xu Miaojin's man, I will stab her to death," Xu Miaojin snorted coldly, walked over with a hot pot, and glanced at Qiqiqi lightly.

Qiqige knew that she was hostile to him, but he chuckled: "Oh, Sister Xu is so beautiful and cute. Don't worry, my sister can't be a threat to you. After all, my sister is already in ruins. But Your Highness is not a mortal. Moreover, His Highness's ambition is so great that the entire grassland may not be able to accommodate his ambition. It is still unknown whether His Highness will surpass Genghis Khan in the future. But sister, you have to think clearly. Many times there is nothing you can do about things. Even Genghis Khan There are dozens of wives, otherwise it will be difficult to get the tribes to work together.”

It is said that Genghis Khan had more than 40 wives in his life. What is even more outrageous is that most of them were the wives and daughters of his enemies, which is exaggerated and excessive.

Qi Qige looked at Xu Miaojin deeply and said: "Your Highness is the prince of your Central Plains Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty. I heard that you are also going to get married. Your Ming Emperor also has many wives and concubines. Sister Xu, in the future, your Highness will also be a grassland man." King, be the overlord of the grassland. With so many tribes and ethnic groups, how can we unify them?"

Xu Miaojin frowned and stared at Qiqige.

In fact, Xu Miaojin knew better. She already knew that Zhu Chu would rebel in the future, and his goal was the throne of the Nine-Five Supreme Being.

In this case, Zhu Ming will definitely need a marriage.

Especially with Zhu Zhen's status, he is neither the legitimate son nor the eldest son. How can he convince the world as he was born in the eighteenth generation?

What's more, what Zhu Zhen has to face is even more complicated. For example, there are dozens of natives of various ethnic groups in Yunnan, and then there are the Han people in the Central Plains, and now there are also the Mongolian tribes on the grasslands. They may even face it in the future. Jurchens, Koreans, etc.

"But we can't let you marry a wife every time you conquer a race, right?" Xu Miaojin became anxious and turned to glare at Zhu Chu.

Zhu Chu was pouring water. He was stunned when he heard this, and then rolled his eyes angrily: "Sister, don't listen to this bitch. I have ambitions, but I don't have time to waste on women. You and I Aqiu is enough. If a person is too dissatisfied, he will be punished by God."

His character just smiled and said nothing, but he felt indifferent in his heart.

Because she thinks Zhu Ming is too naive. In many cases, the so-called marriage is not something you want or want unilaterally, but the other party also needs a certain guarantee from you.

To put it bluntly, for example, Min Minte and Qi Qige had to sacrifice their lives, one for the tribe and the other for themselves.

Even if Zhu Ming could trust them, they might not trust him.

Men, not only do they like to know the basics, but women also want to control the basics.

Anyway, Qi Qige always felt that if Zhu Zhen really wanted to completely control the grassland, he would not be able to do it just by relying on his status as an outsider.

Especially after Genghis Khan, and for many years, only blood descendants of the so-called golden family could be the Great Khan.

That's the problem. It's not that the grasslands are xenophobic, they are even rejecting their own people.

Except for the fact that the bloodline of the Golden Family is special, no one of them accepts it.

Zhu Chu wants to conquer the entire grassland?Even if he is an ordinary Mongolian, he cannot do it, because is he qualified?He's not qualified, you know he doesn't have the qualifications.

If you are not from the Golden Family, who will obey you?

Not to mention that not only is he not from the Golden Family, he is not even a Mongolian. He is the prince of the Ming Dynasty, and he is a Han from the Central Plains.This is even harder.

But what if Zhu Chu is a Mongolian son-in-law?What if he married the daughter of a descendant of Genghis Khan, such as the current princess of the Great Khan?

That would be different. It would be completely different if he were the Golden Sword Consort.

But Qi Qiqi was smart enough not to say it out loud, because Xu Miaojin was no longer happy.

Anyway, she no longer has any thoughts or possibilities for His Highness, so why should she offend others?

But if His Highness is too stubborn, I'm afraid he will suffer a lot, right?

Then Zhu Chu arranged some more things, and then let Qiqige go about his business.

"I said, how long are we going to stay here? Are you really interested in the identity of the widow?" Xu Miaojin suddenly became jealous.

In fact, this is rare. Xu Miaojin has been in the army with Zhu Chu for so long, and he knows that being in the army is different from being at home.

Moreover, Xu Miaojin will not be willful after the age of ten. At most, she will lose her temper in front of her father and brother.

But this time because of Qi Qiqi's words, she felt a strong sense of crisis.

Zhu Zhen drank tea with an indifferent expression.

Xu Miaojin stamped his feet. There was no one in the tent anyway, so he simply went over and sat in Zhu Chu's arms, put his arms around Zhu Chu's neck, and asked coquettishly: "Do you really like the fierceness of prairie women?" ?”

"What are you talking about?" Zhu Zhen couldn't ignore her anymore. He quickly stretched out his hand to hold her small waist and sighed: "Don't you know? Now that the Qiqige tribe has just surrendered, if the Guilichi army If there is an attack, and I cannot protect their safety, then it will be all over. Not to mention they will be plundered and suffered heavy casualties, and no one on the grassland will trust me anymore."

That's why he led the army to stay and did not go back to the camp of the Arutai tribe.

At the same time, Zhu Chu didn't let Wang Fu lead his people over. Since the Yahada tribe had also been conquered, he let Wang Fu lead the one hundred brothers to guard there.

Anyway, they have heavy firearms in their hands, which are enough to crush tens of thousands of enemy troops.

"But didn't you say you would take the initiative before?" Xu Miaojin shook Zhu Chu's neck and pouted, looking very impatient.

Zhu Chu felt his eyes sting a bit, and he couldn't hold back those delicate lips, so he lowered his head and bit them gently.

Xu Miaojin groaned but did not resist.

How long have we been together? They have been chewed up by Zhu Zhen. Even if it is a piece of chewing gum, it has no taste.

No, that’s what it means anyway.

Even if we are not an old married couple, we won’t be shy anymore.

But when Zhu Chun let go, Xu Miaojin's pretty face was still red, and her beautiful eyes were looking at him.

In front of outsiders, he pretends to be an upright gentleman, but once no one is around, he starts to act mischievously.

But it seems like she took the initiative?

Xu Miaojin couldn't help but chuckle.

In fact, she likes that he doesn't show false feelings to others, only to himself.

Zhu Ming didn't know what she was proud of, and said funnyly: "Look at you like that. Don't think nonsense, it's not that I don't want to take the initiative. My good sister, the soldiers and horses have not moved the food and grass first. Do you think the team I sent to deliver the order?" Why are the soldiers going there? I have already sent over the food and grass left at the Arutai headquarters camp. Without this food and grass, do we still have to drive our cattle and sheep to fight?"

Otherwise what would they eat?
Xu Miaojin suddenly felt embarrassed.

It turned out that because of the problem of food and grass, the army could only continue to be stationed here in the Qiqige tribe.

Zhu Zhen also wanted to take the initiative, because once Gui Lichi was asked to mobilize an army to attack, he didn't know what the situation would be like.

Zhu Ming likes to be active rather than passive.

After all, he is a man.

Uh, far away.

The main reason is that Zhu Zhen is no longer a novice, but can be regarded as an experienced general who has fought a hundred battles.

Therefore, Zhu Ming knew very well that being beaten passively was always too passive, and since there were eleven tribes in his grid, it would always be difficult to take full precautions.

It is better to take the initiative.

"And in the past few days, I asked Qiqige to send people out to recall those men, and also to let them find out the situation of other tribes around them. Sister, come and see," Zhu Zhen turned around with Xu Miaojin in his arms, and then took out Something is placed on the table.

Xu Miaojin looked sideways and her eyes suddenly widened.

I saw that it turned out to be a grassland picture?

That's right, it's a map of the grassland.

It was a current grassland map that Zhu Chu purchased from the system, which mainly covered the Tartar tribe, the Oara tribe and the Uliangha tribe.

These are also the three major forces that split from the Mongolian grassland after the fall of the Northern Yuan Dynasty.

Among them, the Tatar grassland is the area where Zhu and others are now, and it directly borders the Ming Dynasty.

At this time, Zhu Chu drew a circle on the map, starting from Helan Mountain outside Ningxia Town, and then made a big circle, including the Hetao, and then came in from Shanxi on the other side.

This large circle is the territory of the three major tribes of Arutai, Yahada and Qiqige. It seems to be nearly one-fifth the size of the Tatar tribe.

Xu Miaojin took a breath and looked at Zhu Ming in disbelief.

Zhu Ming knew what she was shocked about, so he just nodded with a smile and said, "How is it? How good is your man? In less than half a year, so many territories have been conquered. The whole Tatars were included in the land of the Ming Dynasty. Just around the corner.”

Xu Miaojin almost went crazy. She hugged Zhu Zhu and started to chew on it. She even shouted, "You really did it? Why are you so powerful? You actually succeeded in something that even my father couldn't do?"

Only when the map was actually displayed, did Xu Miaojin finally realize that Zhu Zhen was actually completing an unparalleled feat.

Even her father, Duke Xu Da of Wei, had no choice but to retreat to Shuntian, which is now Yanjing, and will be Peiping and Beijing in the future.

That is, the vassal state of Zhu Di, King of Yan.

Even Lan Yu only returned to the court with prisoners and trophies after the great victory in Yuerhai, and could not make the grassland surrender.

But what about Zhu Chu?
Xu Miaojin and the Ming army had seen it with their own eyes, and they had followed him personally, conquering these territories bit by bit.

He actually did it?

Xu Miaojin felt that she was witnessing history, a great history.

Zhu Ming is still very reserved, this is just the beginning.

Then Zhu Chu pointed to one of the locations and said: "According to Qi Qige's understanding of the surroundings, there should be a tribe here, and their leader is called Tengger Lige."

When he mentioned this name, even Zhu Zhen was in a trance, but this was not the Tengger who sang Heaven and Wings of Steel. He was called Tengger Lige.

The name Tengger originally means blue sky, and Mongolians generally do not have surnames, only first names, so it is normal for people to have duplicate names.

"And this is Badalkin's tribe."

"Then here are the tribes of Adalali."

"The three of them are all subordinate leaders of Guilichi, and they are likely to be sent by Guilichi to threaten the Qiqige tribe. If we want to take the initiative, we will defeat their three tribes one after another."

"But there is no rush now. We already know the enemy's location. All we need to do next is to follow the instructions step by step."

"And in addition to transporting the food from the Arutai tribe, I also sent people to Ningxia Town to urge that the second batch of food should be delivered."

It turns out that Zhu Zhen has been making preparations. The closer the war is, the less anxious he can be.

But he also has his own back-up, that is, there is actually a batch of food worth at least 200 million stones hidden in his backpack system.

But that was his last resort, and he didn't want to expose it easily yet.

"But don't worry, it won't take more than five days at most. Once the first batch of food is delivered, it's time to start taking the initiative."

(PS: This plot, especially the arrangements here in the Natula tribe, may make everyone unhappy. I would like to explain that the protagonist did not originally intend to kill these women, old people and children. He did have the intention to kill these women, old people and children at first. He wanted to kill Qiqige, mother and daughter, as a deterrent. However, he gave up after being dissuaded. Therefore, the protagonist was not said to be incompetent and furious or to be as repetitive as a primary school student.

I’m afraid people will misunderstand, so I’ll explain.But rather than explain in vain, it would be better to quickly pass this episode.In fact, the protagonist is deep in the grassland and wants to fight head-on on the battlefield with the so-called Mongolian cavalry. These people must be conquered by force.

As for the women, old people and children in the tribe, he really felt that there was no need to massacre, and in that case, it would be almost impossible for the grassland people to submit and surrender. How much more people do they want?
But sometimes the author can't help it. This is a book that needs a coherent plot and what I think is reasonable.Always explain something.Always write clearly what happened.But I guarantee that the plot behind it will be even more exciting.Because Guilichi's army is about to gather.At that time, there will be a huge war on the entire Tatar grassland.

It is very likely that Fourth Brother will also appear.There are other new characters as well.Stay tuned. )
