Zhu Yuanzhang can see my dreams

Chapter 37 37 Great changes in Beiyuan

Zhu Yuanzhang guessed that Wang Buli could enter the fairyland at a young age. He might be in excitement and look down on secular relationships, but he could not say this to his son at the moment.

He just said lightly: "It would be a good thing for our Ming Dynasty to have more such pure people."

Zhu Biao nodded. He could only guess that Wang Buli was still relatively young and did not understand the dangers of the court.

That's why he has this sincere heart. Maybe it won't take long for that little official to change.

Zhu Biao was born in the flames of war, and he also experienced a lot of changes in the people around him.

“The sky is always windy, the earth is always dusty, everything exists, and people do everything.”

Zhu Yuanzhang murmured these four nursery rhymes.

This was the news brought back by the soldiers he sent to look for clues about the ogres.

Ever since the vicious case of the ogre came out, children have been singing it everywhere.

In a situation like this, without even thinking about it, Zhu Yuanzhang must have been freed by the White Lotus Sect.

This case was also committed by them.

But Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't figure it out for a while, what was their purpose in doing this?

Zhu Biao read it several times, but still couldn't figure it out. Aren't these four very common sentences?

What does it do together?

What can be done?

"Dad, is this related to the people you know from the White Lotus Cult?"

"Do they still want to rebel against us?" Zhu Yuanzhang patted the table rather domineeringly:

"I really want to bring Baobao, the king of the west!"

Although Zhu Yuanzhang called Wang Baobao a "wonderful man in the world", the people of the Ming Dynasty would use this sentence to ridicule him if he boasted about doing small things.

After all, under the propaganda of the Ming Dynasty, although Wang Baobao was very capable, he was still defeated by the Ming Dynasty. He was driven from the south to the north and hid in the grassland.

Zhu Biao laughed a few times: "Dad, I went to the Ministry of Industry to investigate the production of fire guns."

Zhu Biao described the latest situation of the fire gun to Zhu Yuanzhang.

Zhu Yuanzhang listened to the fire gun, which was no different from the one he used in the war.

The extremely domineering fire blunderbuss of the Xian family is really not something that the craftsmen of the Ming Dynasty can build.

Zhu Yuanzhang became a little angry when he thought of this.

Wang Buli could obviously get up close to the immortal fire gun, so why didn't he take it apart and study it?

You have to play with the woman with the horns on her head.

This reminded Zhu Yuanzhang of his beloved general Chang Yuchun, who was rumored to be playing with cows.

For the fairy world, Zhu Yuanzhang did not find it strange.

But in the human world, this kind of behavior is still too explosive.

"That's all." Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand:

"We thought that the fire blunderbuss would be easier to use, so that our soldiers of the Ming Dynasty would suffer less damage when fighting the enemy."

"If you ask me, it would be better to use more artillery."

Compared with firecrackers, Zhu Biao believes that artillery is more deterrent.

When the time comes to march into Yunnan and wipe out the Yuan army entrenched there, the artillery will also be more intimidating.

The barbarians who were clinging to the Yuan people thought they were thunder falling from the sky.

"The roads in Yunnan are muddy, there are many trees, and the transportation of artillery is inconvenient. It is not a suitable place to display the power of artillery, but it can be used on the grassland."

Zhu Yuanzhang denied it.

As for the soldiers of the Northern Yuan Dynasty on the grassland, they obviously couldn't catch up with the Mongolian Tatar cavalry with their artillery. They still needed the spies to send exact news and routes in order to prepare the artillery.

"Report."

A soldier reporting the news quickly ran in from outside the hall, and fell to his knees tiredly:

"Your Majesty, the news just came back from the spies on the grassland."

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he stepped forward to take the envelope.

Is it possible that Beiyuan has begun to fully harass Ming Dynasty again? In the fifth year of Hongwu's reign, 150,000 Ming troops were mobilized for the second northern expedition.

Wang Baobao saw through Ming Dynasty's attempt to swallow up Dayuan in one go, and made a plan to deliberately defeat the army and lure the enemy deeper.

Lan Yu won the first victory, pursued all the way, and was led into the encirclement of the Yuan army waiting for work. The Ming army lost tens of thousands of people, and Xu Da was completely defeated.

Immediately after Wang Baobao surrounded the Eastern Route Army, he defeated Li Wenzhong and reluctantly withdrew his troops. He suffered heavy losses before breaking out of the encirclement of the Yuan Army.

In this battle, Wang Baobao defeated the Ming army's ambition to destroy Bei Yuan and saved Bei Yuan's lifeline.

The Ming army was severely weakened.

So much so that after the battle, there was no news of the Ming army going out to annihilate Bei Yuan for a long time. Both sides were fighting each other on a small scale near the Great Wall.

The impact of this battle caused King Xinxu of Goryeo to turn his back on the Ming Dynasty and defect to the Yuan Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty turned from offense to defense.

Emperor Zhaozong of the Yuan Dynasty integrated all the forces in Yunnan and Liaodong in order to march into the Central Plains.

In order to gain time, Zhu Yuanzhang released the once-captured son of Yuan Zhaozong back as a show of goodwill.

"Dad, Wang Baobao launched another massive attack?"

"Do not."

Zhu Yuanzhang handed the letter to his son, walked a few steps outside, and looked at the moonlight in the sky.

"Wang Baobao is dead!"

Zhu Biao was stunned.

Of course he knew that his father admired Wang Baobao.

Zhu Yuanzhang thought that he was even rarer than Chang Yuchun, so he surrendered Wang Baobao several times, and betrothed Wang Baobao's sister to his son, King Zhu Cang of Qin.

Zhu Yuanzhang had three regrets when he became emperor.

One is that he did not get the imperial seal, the other is that Wang Baobao was not captured alive for his use, and the third is that there is no news about Prince Yuan (the current Emperor of Bei Yuan).

But today I heard the news of Wang Baobao's death, which was really sudden.

Zhu Yuanzhang and they are the same age.

A man who has been well-dressed and well-fed since he was a child wants to learn literature and practice martial arts. He is trained to be a man of both civil and military skills. He is the king of Kuanglan in Dayuan and tries to be a good tinkerer.

A man had been hungry since he was a child, so he could only herd cattle for the landlord's family. In the end, the whole family starved to death, and he wandered and begged. Only then did he risk his life and become a soldier, step by step, take over the whole world, and become the emperor.

Regarding Wang Baobao's opponent, Zhu Yuanzhang had complicated thoughts.

Now that he heard the news of his death, Zhu Yuanzhang was not that excited. He had always wanted to capture Wang Baobao alive and make him surrender under his feet.

"Dad, once Wang Baobao dies, the pillars of Beiyuan will fall, and there won't be much strength left. This is a good thing for our Ming Dynasty."

Prince Zhu Biao did not have as much thought as his father, and there was excitement on his face.

In short, Wang Baobao, the most important person in Beiyuan, is dead, and the others don't need to take it to heart at all.

"Dad, it's time to plan the war against Yunnan." Zhu Biao had long wanted to eliminate the Yuan forces entrenched in the border areas.

Wang Baobao's death was the right time.

Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head: "Didn't you see who replaced Wang Baobao?"

"Kuokua Timur."

"He is the representative of the nobility in the grasslands of Lingbei and a key figure in uniting the northwest vassals for Aiyou Shili Dala." Zhu Yuanzhang took two steps back:

"There are three military forces within the Northern Yuan Dynasty. Wang Baobao is dead, and Kuokuo Timur is in power. His intention to win over the northwest is very obvious."

Zhu Biao nodded, taking advantage of the fact that the news of Wang Baobao's death had not reached Yunnan, it would be better to attack Bei Yuan's military power in the northwest first.

"Send someone to call Mu Ying." Zhu Yuanzhang ordered behind his hands.

　Thanks to Dugu Qiu Shu for his reward of 100 taels of silver if he makes any progress without retreating.
