Daming: I am the most powerful emperor grandson, please abdicate the throne

Now the Ming Dynasty wants to capture a certain place.

The first thing I thought about was not to push the army in, but to use Zhu Xuan's method to subtly penetrate, control, and then take control of it.

It is very convenient to attack directly, and it is not difficult at all for the strength of Ming Dynasty.

However, the benefits can be maximized by conquering an area without spending troops. If you attack, you may encounter fierce resistance. Eliminating the hatred of the locals does not happen overnight. You must often deal with the rebellions of the locals. , rebellion, etc.

Zhu Xuan's method takes a long time, but it is effective and can benefit both parties.

It has basically become a fixed method for them.

"Uncle Fourteen is right."

Zhu Xuan listened to Zhu Mei's words and nodded slightly, indicating that he thought so.

Zhu Kai received an affirmative answer and added: "Then Huozhou is the most suitable for His Highness."

They all set their sights on the Fire State on the map.

Hundreds of years later, Turpan was well known to the public. Not long after leaving Hamiwei and walking to the west, it was Huozhou.

This is a basin, that is, a plain. There are not many deserts, and there are no mountains, mountains and other terrains. There are also some clustered cities nearby. Zhu Lai believes that it is most suitable for development to conquer this area first.

As long as you control Huozhou well and station a military base first, you can advance and attack, retreat and defend. You can also set up a trade area here, and the operational range is still very large.

"Uncle Sixteen, Uncle Twenty-two, what do you think?"

Zhu Xuan looked at the other two imperial uncles.

"The place chosen by Brother Fourteen is feasible."

Zhu Ying looked at the position on the map and agreed: "If there is any problem, it is not difficult to retreat to our Hami Guard for defense. If we want to continue to attack the Western Regions, use Huozhou as the starting point to facilitate the deployment of our weapons, food and grass, etc. , and a military stronghold can be built here.”

Zhu Yan smiled and said: "As long as this military town is built, our garrison can be stationed smoothly. This area can basically be controlled by us. Even if the trade zone fails to succeed, it will not be difficult for us to go deeper."

"That's right!"

They all said the same reason why Zhu Kai chose to be here.

He has been here for so long. It is not a complete waste of time. He must have planned something.

"That!"

Zhu Xuan thought for a moment and made a decisive decision: "How about choosing to stay here for now and send troops tomorrow?"

Zhu Mei nodded and said: "It's feasible, but we don't need too many troops. The firearms are enough to penetrate and capture Huozhou."

Zhu Zhuan and Zhu Ying did not bring many people. They were their three guards, each of whom brought 5,600 people. The remaining guards sent troops from Hami, Ganzhou and other guards to gather 20,000 to 30,000 people to fight in. completely fine.

As for Sheng Yong, Zhu Xuan did not let him follow him and continued to stay in the northwest to ensure their retreat, just in case.

"Then we will send troops tomorrow."

Zhu Xuan affirmed.

The three imperial uncles also supported sending troops to the Western Regions.

Yili was so arrogant and dared to bypass Gansu and other places and break into Lintao. This was a provocation to the Ming Dynasty.

Especially Zhu Gai, he felt that the other party was provoking him. If he didn't attack hard, he would not be worthy of the title of King Su. The Ming Dynasty was so strong, there was no need to be timid and hit him whenever he wanted.

After confirming the plan to go to war, Zhu Xuan temporarily stayed in Prince Su's Mansion to rest.

"Your Highness!"

Zhu Gaoxu came over excitedly and asked, "You will lead us into battle, right?"

Zhu Xuan nodded and said: "Of course, I have to satisfy your desire to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy!"

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Zhu Gaoxu said happily: "I will definitely make great contributions to your highness and build a broader territory for our Ming Dynasty. I will not let you down."

Zhu Xuan waved his hand and asked them to go down too.

Before I knew it, it was evening.

Zhu Xuan didn't have anything else to do. He simply had dinner and planned what arrangements he could make if he defeated Huozhou.

"How about continuing to let Mr. Ji do this?"

Zhu Xuan was thinking. I originally wanted to take Ji Wenjing back and stay with me. No matter what happens, there is someone I can discuss with. However, things in the Western Region are more important, and the person I can trust is Ji Wenjing.

"Come here, send a telegram and ask Mr. Ji to come over."

Zhu Xuan thought about it again and again and decided to do this.

This important task belongs to none other than Ji Wenjing.

I can only feel aggrieved again, that magic stick.

The next day.

Outside the city, the military camp.

All soldiers, review completed.

Zhu Xuan came to review in person. Standing on the high platform, he saw that some soldiers were almost assembled, with neat military appearance and a rainbow of momentum.

As the king of the fortress, Zhu Kai and the others have their own abilities and skills in running the army. They can lead the army well, otherwise they will not be able to stabilize the border fortress. The soldiers under their command all look elite and they feel very good.

Those imperial uncles are indeed not fuel-efficient lamps.

"Your Highness, how is it?"

Zhu Kai asked.

"Go to war!"

Zhu Xuan came to his senses and immediately issued the order.

"Go to war!"

Zhu Kai then shouted.

The sound of war drums echoed in the army, and the drums were passionate and inspired the hearts of every soldier.

Zhu Xuan left first, and under the protection of the Jinyi Guards and personal guards, he left Ganzhou and headed for Huozhou. The rest of the soldiers quickly followed. Under the leadership of Zhu Mei and the others, they fought with all their strength.

Those here are only part of the troops. On the way, Hami and other guards will also come to join them, and the number of people will be gathered before they can officially fight out.

-

Turpan, Huozhou.

Yin Jiercha is the tribal leader in the entire Turpan Basin. He can also be called a chief. His status and reputation here are very high, but he still obeys Mahama's people.

On this day, Yin Jiercha was dealing with affairs as usual.

At the same time, we also need to take stock of the gains from trading in Daming.

It was not that no one in Yiliba went to Lintao. There were also one or two caravans who went to Lintao for trade with the consent of the Ming Dynasty. These were all people from Yin Jiercha, but the distance was relatively far, and the people who went there were not There are many, and the size of the caravan is not very large, so it is very troublesome to come and go.

Their caravan was a bit of a little fuss.

"leader."

At this moment, a housekeeper hurriedly walked in.

Yin Jiercha asked displeasedly: "What does it sound like to yell and scream? What's the matter?"

"Da Ming...Da Ming is coming."

The butler gasped.

"what?"

Yin Jiercha also shouted and stood up in disbelief.

Why did Daming come in for no reason?

This is not normal.

They have never had any grudges with Daming.

Whenever there were special festivals during the Ming Dynasty, he often sent some gifts to Ganzhou to Zhu Kai, praying that he could coexist peacefully with the Ming Dynasty.

Normally, Daming shouldn't come in. (End of chapter)
