King Luhuang of the Ming Dynasty: My father, Ming Taizu

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard the mean voice outside the tent, his face suddenly darkened.

He could tell who it was.

King Zhu Di of Yan!

This boy's skills in marching and fighting were all learned from Xu Da, who was also Xu Da's uncle.

He and Xu Da were both master and apprentice, and like father and son, so it was no wonder that he was so flattering to Xu Da's voice.

However, when Zhu Yuanzhang heard Zhu Di say that Xu Da was the person he admired most, he suddenly became sour!
Unfilial son!
Look at Lao Shi, even if he mentions Emperor Qin, Emperor Wu of Han, Emperor Zong of Tang, etc., it’s better to let him admire you!

Admiring your father, this is filial piety!
You, Mr. Zhu, are great!
A mere Xu Da makes you so flattering that you forget your father when you have a father-in-law!

This is really unreasonable!

Xu Da coughed slightly and said: "Your Majesty, King Yan, all my achievements back then were actually achieved after His Majesty's advice. If anyone is truly as good at using troops as a god, it should be Your Majesty!"

Zhu Di smiled and said: "Father-in-law, Taishan, don't be humble. It's still early for the meeting. My father is definitely not here, and he is not here. It's useless for you to say good things about him!"
You have fought in the south and north for so many years, destroyed Chen Youliang, fought against Zhang Shicheng, subdued Dadu of Yuan Dynasty, swept away Mobei, and only eighteen of Wang Baobao's riders escaped!

These achievements are all real. What can my father be involved in?

At most, when you go to war, my father will tell you to fight well.

When you come back victorious, he will say "Well done!"

That's it!

Aren’t you the one who is really fighting the war?”

Zhu Di's voice came into the tent.

After hearing this, Old Eunuch Chen and Jiang Wei struggled to hold back their laughter.

Zhu Yuanzhang's face became even more gloomy!
Zhu Laosi, this bastard!
In his words, what kind of waste emperor have we become!

This is really not objective.

Back then, he was the one who formulated the strategy of attacking Chen Youliang first and then Zhang Shicheng!

After that, arranging the various generals to attack and defend, and formulating strategies and strategies, what can you do that can't be done by yourself?

Even Lao Zhu himself is a worried person and will teach Xu Da how to fight, what weapons to use, how to set up formations, etc.
A self-made commoner emperor who doesn't know how to fight can't fight. In the troubled times like the end of the Yuan Dynasty, who will obey you?

According to Zhu Di's statement, can he get to where he is today?
The more Zhu Yuanzhang thought about it, the more he felt aggrieved and angry. For a moment, he gnashed his teeth in hatred!

Xu Da's voice came from outside the tent again.

"Zhu Di, don't talk nonsense! What I just said is true! Without His Majesty's guidance, I would not be where I am today!"

After hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang felt a little better.

Xu Da is a person who can abide by his duties as a minister at all times.

It's reassuring.

The words fell.

Xu Da walked into the tent first, and then he was stunned.

Zhu Di, who was following Xu Da, was also stunned when he saw the person in the tent.

Zhu Di laughed dryly and said, "Father, Emperor?"

"Get out!"

"My son, I obey!"

Xu Da was also a little embarrassed.

"Your Majesty, Xu Da, comes to see you."

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said: "Pingsheng! Xu Aiqing is a responsible person. We all heard the conversation you just had with my unfilial son! It's okay, it's okay!"

Xu Da smiled bitterly in his heart.

If it was okay, you wouldn't scold Zhu Di as soon as they met.

Ugh.
Pity my filial son-in-law.
soon.

Except Xu Da and Zhu Di.

King Zhu Feng of Qin, King Zhu Fan of Jin, King Zhu Ji of Zhou, King Zhu Shu of Qi, King Zhu Tan of Lu, Duke Feng Sheng of Song, Duke Fu Youde of Ying, Marquis Lanyu of Yongchang, etc. also came in.

This time.

It was the discussion before the expedition that Zhu Yuanzhang presided over.

Everyone arrived on time according to the agreed time.

When Zhu Di saw Zhu Di guarding the door, he couldn't help but asked curiously: "Fourth brother? What are you doing at the door? Let's go, the discussion will start soon! What are you doing here?"

Zhu Di had just been scolded by Lao Zhu, so he didn't dare to go in. He looked a little embarrassed, snorted and said: "I know, you go in first!"

Zhu Tie was stunned when he heard this, and asked curiously: "Then why don't you go in? Is it because you don't like it?"

This is so heartbreaking to say.

Zhu Di's face darkened, he looked at Zhu Xi and said angrily: "Come in if you are told! What nonsense!"

He was Zhu Rui's biological brother. When he got angry, Zhu Rui naturally didn't dare to say anything and walked in immediately.

Zhu Tan looked at Zhu Di's appearance and already guessed 80% of it.

In all likelihood, Zhu Laosi had no choice but to be punished to stand here.

As for who can make him have no choice but to
That can only be his father.

However, to be honest, Zhu Tan still had a good impression of this fourth brother.

At least think about yourself at all times.

It's better to help him now.

He walked up to Zhu Di and whispered: "Fourth brother, is Father punishing you? I'll go and talk to you!"

Zhu Di laughed dryly and said: "Good brother! Don't tell them that I was forced to stand still, even if they help me! It's so embarrassing." Zhu Tan laughed and said: "Fourth brother, don't worry!"

soon.

As everyone entered the big tent.

They all visited Zhu Yuanzhang.

Zhu Tan suddenly said to Zhu Yuanzhang: "Father, I have some questions and I want to ask my fourth brother for advice! But he is standing outside the tent and doesn't want to come in. Do you think you should let him come in and teach me?"

Zhu Yuanzhang snorted when he heard this.

This bastard didn't even give himself any face.

You, the younger brother, are kind-hearted and want to save face for him!
Zhu Yuanzhang frowned and said: "Do you still need us to help you with the matter between your brothers? Go and call the fourth brother in! Discussions are about to begin, what are you doing standing outside? Do you want to drink from the northwest wind?"

The words fell.

Zhu Di, who had already heard Zhu Yuanzhang's voice, was full of joy and hurried in.

"My son obeys the order!"

Then he stood next to Zhu Tan.

"Good brother! Thank you so much, Fourth Brother!"

Zhu Tan smiled.

soon.

Zhu Yuanzhang said to everyone: "The main reason I have called you here is to discuss the Northern Expedition! Whether we are going to attack Naha in the northeast first, or clean up the remnants of Yuanting in Mobei, I will come up with a charter today."

The words fell.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Xu Da next to him and said: "Wei Guogong, you are a veteran who participated in the Northern Expedition. This time due to physical reasons, we will not let you preside over the Northern Expedition. But this time, you should give your opinion first!"

Xu Da smiled and said: "I obey the order! In my opinion, we have assembled an army of 20 this time. Whether we attack Naha Chu first or the remnants of Yuanting in the Northern Expedition, any one of them can be sure of victory alone." , it’s nothing more than a matter of choice!

The remnants of Yuanting have taken a place, and conquering them will be of greater significance to the orthodoxy of our dynasty.

Naha appears in the northeast and continues to threaten Liaodong, and Goryeo is also secretly collaborating with them. If Naha is destroyed first, it will be of greater practical benefit to our country.

I think it doesn’t matter who to fight first, the important thing is to prevent the two sides from joining together. In this case, the outcome of our army’s Northern Expedition will be unknown! "

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and said to Jiang Gu, the commander of the Jin Yiwei beside him: "Jiang Gu, tell me about the information that the Jin Yiwei has detected in Mobei, especially about the possible cooperation between the remnants of Yuanting and Naha!"

Jiang Wei said: "According to our reliable information, the leader of the remnants of the Yuan Dynasty, Togu Si Timur, is cowardly, incompetent, and timid. Even before our army prepared for the Northern Expedition, he had already expected the Northern Expedition. He was in the tribe not long ago. During the meeting, Naha, who wanted to betray the Northeast, came out to ensure his own safety, which made many tribal leaders dissatisfied at the time.

To the northeast, Nahachu's power has been greatly weakened in recent years. Although it still has more than 20 troops, the morale of its subordinates is unstable. For example, generals such as Gaobasi Timur and Hong Boyan Timur are secretly working with us. Contact, there is a vague intention of surrender! Their contact with Yuanting is not close. Nahachu has been in the Northeast for many years. He often ignores Yuanting's recruitment and has long been independent.

It was for this reason that Tuogusi Timur was willing to divert disaster to the east in order to protect himself. "

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the crowd and said: "Other specific intelligence details and the situation of relevant espionage personnel will be handed over to the army commander after the army sets off! You can speak freely, and the route of the Northern Expedition will be decided today!"

Lan Yu smiled and said: "Your Majesty, I think the situation is already very clear! The remnants of Yuanting are completely demoralized and no longer dare to look directly at our army. Even if we are really going to the Northern Expedition, finding their main force is also a problem! But Nahachu in the northeast is different.

The monk can run away, but he can't run away from the temple! The Northeast is different from the Mobei Grassland. The people from Naha have long since changed from nomadic herding to part-cultivation and part-pastoral! There are even more farmers than herders!

That’s why many people there want to join the Ming Dynasty!
Because we can produce all kinds of iron farm tools, we have farming techniques that they have not yet mastered!
Therefore, I believe that Naha should be attacked first!
One is that their military morale is unstable. Although they have a large number of people, they only have paper strength! When it comes time to fight, I'm afraid more people will surrender than fight us!
The other is that if we win the Northeast, we can greatly reduce the pressure on defense, and then we can focus on clearing Mobei! "

Duke Ying Fu Youde frowned and said: "Your Majesty, I think we should attack Mobei first! Although Marquis Yongchang is optimistic, Naha Chu has an army of nearly 300,000 people and has been operating in Liaodong for many years. It is not comparable to ordinary forces!
Once our army conquers Naha, if Mobei Yuanting responds to it and supports each other, then our 200,000-strong army will face 400,000 or even 500,000 enemy troops! "

Lan Yu smiled and said: "Gong Ying, didn't you listen carefully to what Commander Jiang said? That Tuogu Si Timur of Mobei Yuanting has been frightened by us!
They won't support Naha! Those guys even want to divert the trouble to the east, let us conquer Naha first, they can barely survive!

Haha, I heard that Natu Gusi Timur was captured by us back then and lived in Yingtian for a year!
Later, His Majesty was merciful and let him go!

It is estimated that after being a prisoner for a year, we have long since raised dogs from prairie wolves! Now besides begging for mercy, what else do you have? Why should Duke Ying be afraid of such a frightened guy? "

Fu Youde shook his head and said: "It's not that I didn't listen, I just felt something was wrong in my heart! The so-called soldiers are deceitful! The principle of lips dying and teeth cold has been passed down for thousands of years. Wouldn't the remnants of Yuanting understand? If Naha is destroyed, Yuanting will How many days can the remnant live a good life?

This Togu Si Timur behaved so cowardly, what if it was a arrogant plan?

In a life-and-death battle involving hundreds of thousands of people, one must not be careless! "

Guo Ying frowned and said: "Your Majesty, I also think that we should be cautious! Although Mobei Yuanting is not as strong as it was then, it still has hundreds of thousands of troops!

If you raise your arms and shout on the grassland, it will be easy to summon 20 cavalry!
Although Tuogu Si Timur, the leader of Yuanting, behaved cowardly, I had seen this person before.

When he was in Yingtian, he showed no fear and even wanted to die. Many people respected him!

How long had it been before he had become so cowardly and cowardly? To be honest, I don’t really believe it! "

Lan Yu smiled and said: "Qin Hui was still a militant before he was captured by the Jin Dynasty! He became a traitor when he was released! His temperament changed after encountering hardships not once or twice. Wu Dinghou only relied on a meeting several years ago. Just infer that his current decision-making is a bit arbitrary?”

When Zhu Yuanzhang saw several people arguing, he couldn't help but waved his hands, looked at his sons, and asked: "What about you? This Northern Expedition, although it is mainly supported by several princes and marquises, but this time since it is The whole army is discussing the matter, and you should express your opinion!”

Zhu Fang smiled and said: "I think you can attack whichever way you go first! In short, my Ming Dynasty sergeant is invincible in the world! I can deal with any way easily! Since Naha's attack is right in front of you, let's attack Naha's attack first!"

Zhu Fan frowned and said: "My son thought that we should clear out Mobei first! Now on the Mobei grassland, it is the time for livestock to multiply, and the strength of various tribes is scattered. If we clean up Mobei, the Mongols will definitely suffer heavy losses!"

Zhu Di thought for a while and said: "My son also thinks that Mobei should be cleared out first! No matter where the remnants of Yuanting are hiding, as long as we pursue them, we can always catch them!
Moreover, there is no need to worry about Naha coming to support the remnants of Yuanting!
After all, it is difficult for them to meet each other in the vast grassland!
What's more, we have established seven guard posts in Liaodong and have an army of 170,000! If Naha dares to send troops to the grassland, then we can take advantage of it!

But if we attack Naha first, there will be no base in Mobei Yuanting. We can't even contain it. If 20 troops go out to fight, it will be really dangerous if they are attacked from both front and rear! "

Zhu Xi looked at the people, smiled dryly at Zhu Yuanzhang and said: "Father, I don't understand military affairs, but my fourth brother said that we should fight against Naha, so that is definitely true, and I also support the fight against Naha!"

Zhu Di said with a dark face: "I'm talking about attacking Mobei Yuanting first!"

Zhu Rui said hurriedly: "Father, then we will attack Mobei."

Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand and said: "Shut up! Lao Qi, what do you think?"

King Zhu Shu of Qi was sent to Kaiping to become a vassal by Zhu Yuanzhang. After a year of fighting with the grassland people, his temperament had matured a lot.

He frowned and said: "Father, I think that these grassland people live in no fixed place. Once they escape, it will be extremely difficult to find them. It is better to go and fight Naha. At least they can still be caught!"

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded.

This is probably Zhu Shu's experience.

He looked at Zhu Tan and asked, "King Lu, what do you think?"

Zhu Tan smiled and said: "Father, I don't know where to attack first, but I have a piece of information here that I can share with you!" (End of Chapter)
