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

Zhao Ning smiled and said: "Although we have 30,000 troops here, we can't hold out for a few days in front of 200,000 Ming troops, and we will definitely not be able to defeat them! What's more, others can wait for reinforcements to come when they hold on, but what about us? We simply can't. There are no reinforcements! Whether it is Mobei Yuanting or King Kaiyuan, do they dare to come to support? "

Everyone shook their heads when they heard this.

No need to ask, don’t expect anything from either side!

They won't come to support!

Mobei Yuanting didn't even dare to attack Cao Gu last year, and all the supplies they needed were bought from King Kaiyuan.

Instead, the Ming army took the initiative to attack, and a new King of Qi was even more arrogant. He cleared the grassland every ten days and a half, leaving no humans or animals beaten near Kaiping Guard. Many people fled to Tongzhou City.

As for where Kaiyuan King Naha came from.
There should be no hope.

The Ming Dynasty built more and more guard posts in the Liaodong area and raised more and more troops.

Every now and then, part of Naha's territory will be encroached upon.

It is spring now, the season when livestock breeds on the grassland. King Kaiyuan should also be worried that the Ming army in Liaodong will attack him. He is probably trying his best to defend, so don't expect King Kaiyuan to do anything.

Everyone knows in their hearts that Tongzhou City must either give up or surrender. If it persists, it will be a dead end.

Seeing that everyone stopped talking, Zhao Ning continued: "It's not a good thing to just run away! Mobei Yuanting will definitely not be able to tolerate us, and it will be difficult for them to protect themselves. The Ming Dynasty has implemented a blockade policy on us people, and everyone's life is difficult. Go Mobei Yuanting is purely a burden to them, and they will not welcome us.

It's not impossible to go back to King Kaiyuan, but let me ask you, the Ming army suddenly came to 200,000 people. Could it be that they were just trying to break through the city? "

Everyone shook their heads when they heard this.

Even a fool can see that they are about to embark on another Northern Expedition!
As for whether to go to Liaodong or Mobei after leaving Tongzhou, I don't know.

Zhao Ning smiled and said: "This time the Ming Dynasty sent so many troops, there must be a big battle, either to the west to attack Mobei Yuanting, or to the east to attack the Yuan Dynasty! We withdraw, if the Ming army goes straight to Liaodong, then we will Come down, we still have to fight!

At that time, it is not up to us to decide whether we can surrender or not. Everyone, since Dayuan lost most of its capital until now, it has been retreating steadily, and even to the current situation where it is about to die, what is the use of continuing to persist! "

When it comes to this, everyone feels the same.

When Emperor Shun of the Yuan Dynasty escaped from Dadu, the Yuan Dynasty had Wang Baobao in Shanxi, Li Siqi in Shaanxi, King Liang in Yunnan, and hundreds of thousands of grassland cavalry in the north, occupying the entire land of Liaodong. Goryeo was still the most obedient to the Yuan Dynasty. servant! At that time, it was easy to ask Goryeo to send hundreds of thousands of men to join the army!

There are nearly two million troops across the country!

At that time, no one would believe it if it was said that the Great Yuan Dynasty would be dead if it lost most of its capital!

Therefore, in addition to the Yuanting royal family and a large number of Mongolian nobles, countless Han officials were evacuated from Yuan Dadu at that time.

Across the country, there are countless Han landlords and officials who are willing to be loyal to the Yuan Dynasty and continue to fight for the Yuan Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty.

After all, the Yuan Dynasty was the dynasty that most made feudal landowners feel like feudal lords in history.

However, despite such a good situation, Dayuan suddenly declined due to repeated defeats.

Emperor Yuan Shun died unwillingly.

Yuan Zhaozong, who was determined to restore the Yuan Dynasty, died in depression in the grassland guard battles one after another!

And what is the name of the newly enthroned Tugu Si Timur?
I used to be a prisoner of the Ming Dynasty for a whole year!

After he came back, even though he succeeded to the throne, he was still a timid and timid guy!
The entire grassland used to respect the Golden Family so much, but now it is completely alienated from Mobei Yuanting.

Rebellion and discontent simmered across the steppes.

And what about their leader Kaiyuan King Nahachu?

Although he was called a hero for a while, he suffered repeated defeats in Liaodong, and was gradually encroached on a large area of ​​land by the Ming army in Liaodong. Even now, Goryeo has begun to attack the great head of state, asking them for donations and supplies, and often Got no response.

This is Dayuan today.

Dayuan is in decline!
Even for the Han people and the Ming Dynasty.

There is no more Dayuan!
Some are just remnants of the Northern Yuan Dynasty!

Just some barbarian leaders who deserve to be appeased by them!

Listening to Zhao Ning's words, everyone felt dejected and extremely depressed.

Sain Tamerlane sighed.

"Forget it! Forget it! Mr. Zhao, you are right! Originally, I was thinking of giving him a fight, or simply running away and going back to find King Kaiyuan!

But after hearing what you said, I felt that I had to surrender!

If you don't surrender, you will die sooner or later!

The leaders on the grassland have changed one after another, but we ordinary people have to survive, right?

Whether it is the Emperor of the Yuan Dynasty or the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, we must recognize one as our master!

If that's the case, let's surrender!
I will send an envoy to the Ming army camp right now!

After all, we have 30,000 Mongolian warriors here. The people of Ming Dynasty will be very happy when they see them, and I believe they will give everyone a good way out! "

The words fell.

Zhao Ning smiled.

"Sir! Don't be too hasty! I said, you can surrender! You must surrender! Surrender is the way to live, not to surrender is the way to death! But we can't surrender so happily, otherwise it will also be the end of death!"

Hearing this, Sain Timur was completely desperate.

"Master Zhao, what are you talking about? Why is it that if you don't surrender, you will die, and if you surrender, you will die?"

Zhao Ning smiled bitterly and said: "I don't want our situation to be like this, but it is the fact! Do these Ming people trust us Mongolians? Not necessarily! And if our 30,000 Mongolian warriors surrender, sir, think about it, then the Ming army coach How will we be arranged?”

Saiin Timur was stunned and said: "What do you think you will do?"

Zhao Ning sighed and said: "In the past, one of the favorite things the Jin people liked to do when attacking the Han people was to occupy a city and drive the men, women, old and children in the city to the next city! If the Han people fired cannons or arrows, they would be killed first. , these are these men, women and children!

If the Han people don't defend the city, then the Jin people can rush up from behind and break the city! If the Han people defend the city, they will kill all the men, women, and children in front! "

Saiin Timur frowned and said: "You mean, if we surrender, we will be treated as those men, women, old and children by the Ming Dynasty?"

The words fell.

Everyone in the big tent immediately became excited!
"This is unreasonable! After all, we are also strong Mongolian men. How can we be treated as victims?"

"Thirty thousand warriors means that the Ming Dynasty has 200,000 people. If we were to capture us, we would suffer heavy losses! If we surrender like this, not only will there be no benefit, but we will be driven to death by them? What's the point of this? !”

"If we surrender, we will die in such pain, then we'd better not surrender. It's better to escape, or to fight to the death with the Ming army in an upright manner!"

Saiin Timur sighed and said: "Mr. Zhao, now is not the time to show off. Just say what you want to say! Everyone just wants to survive and live a better life!"

Zhao Ning smiled bitterly and said: "Actually, we won't be regarded as a ghost by the Ming army, but we will definitely be driven to the front by them to attack each other with our brothers! Anyone with a discerning eye can see that since we surrender It is a rare victorious army. Let us go to war with our compatriots. They do not need to suffer any losses, but we will lose no matter who wins or loses!
Even though he didn’t commit suicide, it was no different than committing suicide!

If the Ming Dynasty is finally defeated, those of us who surrendered to them will be abandoned by them and handed over to Yuanting or King Kaiyuan to vent our anger!

If the Ming Dynasty wins, then we people will probably suffer heavy casualties, not even one out of ten! "

Sain Timur frowned and said, "So what should we do now?"

Zhao Ning said resolutely: "Fight! We must have a fierce fight with the Ming army! Let them see how powerful we are, let them be severely frustrated in front of us, and let them feel that if they defeat us, it will cause huge disasters." loss, and thus struggled with whether to fight us to the end!

Only when the Ming army is frightened by the fight will we have the confidence to negotiate with the Ming army!

At that time, we could make any conditions with them, but the Ming army had to accept it!
Because, after we win a big victory, they are the ones begging us to surrender!

If we surrender easily without even fighting, then we are surrendering to the Ming Dynasty for seeking knowledge!
When the time comes, he will definitely end up committing suicide! "

When Sain Timur heard this, he immediately understood what Zhao Ning meant.

It must be lowered.

But you can’t drop it casually.

Otherwise, Ming Dynasty will not pay attention to them and will only send them to the front line to continue to be cannon fodder.

Therefore, we must fight a victorious battle. Only when the Ming army is hurt can we talk about surrender. At that time, the Ming army will have to accept the conditions they proposed!
Everyone can live a good life!

Sain Tamerlane even thought.

At that time, you can ask for a large fiefdom from Daming on the grassland!

You know, on the grasslands, the closer to Han Dynasty, the warmer the climate, the more precipitation, and the richer the water plants!

It would be so comfortable if Ming Dynasty sealed that kind of place to himself!

The Ming army in the south is an ally with itself and will not touch itself.

Yuanting in Mobei didn't dare to touch him because he was protected by Ming Dynasty!

At that time, I can also talk to Ming Dynasty about the tribute trade.
If the Ming Dynasty lifted the ban, it could develop for more than ten or twenty years.
I can't even imagine what a prosperous and powerful tribe I will lead!
Even reunifying Mobei and becoming the new grassland khan is not impossible!

If there is another turmoil in the Ming Dynasty, wouldn't I be the second Kublai Khan?
For a while.

Sain Timur thought with a smile on his face.

Everyone looked puzzled.

a long time.

Sain Timur came back to his senses, looked at the people in front of him, his old face turned red, and said: "Since Master Zhao is right, what are we waiting for? Everyone! Fight for our bright future! This battle , we must hurt the Ming army and let them know how powerful we are!”

Everyone suddenly accepted the order!

My heart was extremely excited.

Although everyone has made it clear that surrender must be done, the fighting spirit of everyone at this time has reached its peak!

Because everyone knows that this battle is not for anyone, only for yourself!

Tongzhou City is said to be a city, but it is completely different from the Gaoguang City of Ming Dynasty.

It's just a small fortification about three meters high.

The defense is pitifully weak.

Of course, this is the best that the Mongols can do.

Under the Ming Dynasty's blockade for more than ten years, everyone could not even get a few iron pots to eat. Where could the materials be used to build a high city?

This is also the reason why Lan Yu dared to attack the city with five thousand elite cavalry.

The so-called city is a joke!
at this time.

Lan Yu's cavalry roared and charged forward.

Behind him was King Lu Wei, two miles away.

There is no way, Lu Wangwei is mainly infantry after all.

Lan Yu's adopted son Sun Xiang rode beside Lan Yu and said with a smile: "Father! We are almost to Tongzhou City!"

Lan Yu sneered.

"Does this deserve to be called a city? What kind of thing did the Mongols build? When I was young, the pigsty I built was stronger than their city!"

Sun Xiang laughed and said: "Just looking at this city, you can tell that they are a bunch of trash! Even if there are 30,000 people, that is 30,000 military medals hanging around their necks! When we kill all these people, everyone can Is it a promotion?"

Lan Yu smiled and said: "Maybe you can be promoted, I'll forget it! The prince I want, a mere 30,000 heads are not enough! Capturing the Emperor Yuanting, maybe it will be enough!
The Emperor held a meeting with us before he left! He mentioned three regrets from that year!

First, the imperial seal was not found!
Second, Wang Baobao was not captured alive!

Thirdly, His Majesty wrote a letter to persuade Aiyu to surrender, but received no response!

Now Wang Baobao and Aiyou Shili Dara are dead!
But the imperial seal might be in the hands of these Mongolians!

This time, when you capture the prisoners, you must interrogate them one by one!

If you can get the imperial seal, it will be worth more than arresting a hundred Yuanting emperors!
do you know? "

Sun Xiang heard this and said with a smile: "Don't worry, foster father! My son will definitely pay attention to you!"

"shit!"

Lan Yu smiled and scolded: "It's for His Majesty's attention! If you can find clues to the imperial seal, I'm afraid you can also be made a marquis!"

Sun Xiang was a little unbelievable when he heard this.

Now he is only a member of a thousand households. Let alone being granted a title of marquis, even if he is granted a title of ten thousand households, it is still a beautiful thing that can make you laugh out of your dreams!

The adoptive father now says that if he gets clues about the imperial seal, he can become a marquis. It is simply unimaginable!
"Father, is that imperial seal really so powerful?"

Lan Yu said lightly: "Do you know who used the Chuanguo Jade Seal?"

Sun Xiang shook his head.

Lan Yu hummed: "Qin Shihuang! When Qin Shihuang unified China, the carved jade seal was passed down from the Qin Dynasty to the Tang Dynasty for thousands of years! In these thousand years, every unification emperor has owned the jade seal ! Later it was lost! But many people said that Genghis Khan got the imperial seal, but the Tatars didn’t know how to cherish it, so they never appeared!
If you throw that thing away, it will be lost for five hundred years!
You think, if we find the Imperial Seal back, what a great achievement it will be! "(End of chapter)
