Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty

  Chapter 790 Achievements Unseen in a Thousand Years

   Yanda Khan is definitely not an easy character to deal with.

  He started from Emperor Taizu Gao, who continued to attack the remnants of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, the entire desert fell apart until the emergence of Yanda Khan, who ruled the desert.

   The unification of the desert means that the entire desert can be twisted into a rope, constantly threatening the entire Ming Dynasty. This is why the northern town of the Ming Dynasty has become increasingly tense.

  This person is a generation of heroes.

  Even if they are repeatedly defeated, they can always make a comeback.

  The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty are still regretting that the defenders of Datong could not kill Yanda Khan.

  But now... Yanda Khan is actually dead.

  Emperor Hongzhi gasped, it was so unreal.

  Emperor Hongzhi frowned: "Really?"

  Zhu Houzhao said: "I dare not speak falsely, the Tatar Khan, I recognized him even when he was turned into ashes. At that time, he was leading thousands of defeated soldiers back to the north, and my ministers and soldiers happened to meet him..."

   Thousands of defeated soldiers met more than a thousand Ming cavalry.

  Even if they were defeated, when they arrived in the desert, as long as these Tatars still had horses, they would definitely not be able to deal with more than a thousand Ming cavalry.

  This point has been verified countless times.

   This makes people feel even more strange.

Emperor Hongzhi looked at Ma Wensheng, and Ma Wensheng hurriedly said, "His Royal Highness, these thousands of Tatar cavalry are not decorations, even if they are just defeated soldiers. But I heard that there are extremely loyal and brave guards of the Golden Tent beside the Tatar Khan, which should not be underestimated." I look at it, but I don't know how His Highness can defeat such a terrifying Tatar iron cavalry."

  In fact, not only Ma Wensheng, but even Emperor Hongzhi and even Fang Jifan wanted to know exactly what method Zhu Houzhao used.

  Zhu Houzhao looked at himself with countless pairs of scorching eyes.

  I can't help but sigh in my heart, isn't this moment what I've been waiting for?

  He got up, his excited body trembled slightly, raised his eyes, and said concisely and forcefully: "Quick!"

   "..."

  Quick...what does fast mean?

Zhu Houzhao said: "The elite of the cavalry lies in their speed! They must gather quickly and attack decisively with lightning speed. When they are unprepared, they must not drag their feet. Time to regroup, but immediately for a second, third shock, and perpetual chaos until it collapses."

"This...is the Tatars' method of warfare. Genghis Khan was able to gallop the world, and his descendants, who destroyed countless countries, relied on this terrible method of warfare." Zhu Houzhao straightened his chest: "And my cavalry of Ming Dynasty , not to mention that the vast majority encountered the enemy, but hesitated, missed the opportunity to assemble, had a fighter, but could not seize the opportunity to attack immediately, but hesitated; If he succeeded in the attack, he was afraid of falling into a fierce battle, but he did not dare to turn around and continue to attack decisively. For many years, Da Ming has not had a truly outstanding cavalry general. Even the best cavalry cannot win."

"Genghis Khan can build the most powerful cavalry in the world. My Ming Dynasty is rich in products, so why can't I raise an elite cavalry? They can do it. All these years, what I have been thinking about is that my Ming Dynasty, as usual It can be done. It is ridiculous that this Yanda Khan, although he claims to have continued the blood of the Golden Family and inherited its orthodoxy, has lost their ancestors’ real cooking skills. People are still proficient in riding and shooting, but in fact, they are far from the iron cavalry in the past, and have long since lost their original power."

  Zhu Houzhao's eyes were slightly closed, his eyes flashed, and he concluded decisively: "These military horses, which are only good at riding and shooting, seem to be powerful, but they are actually vulnerable to a single blow!"

   Vulnerable...

   This tone is really arrogant to the extreme.

  If in the past, Zhu Houzhao spoke in such a tone, he would have been shot to death by his father.

  You are talking nonsense again.

  Can today...

  Everyone listened attentively, their faces in a daze, is that so...

   Actually...it seems very reasonable.

  But... In fact, anyone who thinks about it will feel their scalp go numb.

  Easier said than done.

In the desert, encountering iron cavalry that is several times larger than yourself requires you to make a quick decision, and you also need to lead people to attack without hesitation, not to mention, entering the enemy's line, going through life and death, and repeatedly assaulting the Tatars. What boldness and courage.

  Emperor Hongzhi looked at the ragged Zhu Houzhao, and suddenly had an illusion.

  The waves behind the Yangtze River drive the waves ahead.

  He couldn't help feeling: "Jifan is right."

  Zhu Houzhao was taken aback for a moment: "Father, what did Lao Fang say?"

  Emperor Hongzhi smiled and said, "Praise you."

  Zhu Houzhao had a calm smile on his face, ah, I still know me from time to time.

  Emperor Hongzhi was silent for a moment, and then said: "By the way, he also praised himself."

   "..." Zhu Houzhao said in his heart, this is indeed the old Fang, the original flavor has not changed.

  Fang Jifan smiled awkwardly: "The main thing is to praise His Highness, I just incidentally."

At this time, a few knights came on galloping horses. They got off their horses, and they held a box in their hands. Inside the box was the head of the Tatar Khan. Several people stepped forward, and the monarchs and ministers smelled it from a distance. A whiff of lime.

  Zhu Houzhao said: "Father, this is the head of Naboerjijin Batumengke. If you don't believe me, you will know it with your own eyes."

  Emperor Hongzhi hurriedly waved his hands: "Don't look at it, can't I still trust my son?" He looked back at Baiguan.

  Liu Jian and others were completely shocked and didn't know what to say.

   It is almost certain that Borjijin Batumengke did confer the title.

  This is the greatest victory against the Tatars since the Tumu Fortress.

  The frightening thing about this victory is that His Royal Highness, relying on the Tatars' fighting methods, completely defeated the Tatars, and even engaged in a cavalry duel with several times the Tatars.

  The so-called arched horses of the Tatars were completely defeated by the Ming Dynasty.

  His Royal Highness the Crown Prince... really amazing.

  At this moment, recall Fang Jifan's words again.

   To avenge the shame of Emperor Yingzong.

  Emperor Yingzong is the great-grandfather of His Highness the Crown Prince. He has worked diligently in this field for more than ten years.

   Of course the most important thing is.

  You say that this is militarism, but it is not right.

  Because... the prince's style of play seems very economical.

Li Dongyang kept nodding with a smile, save money, more than a thousand cavalry, such a big battle result, if they really burned and killed all the way, but did not kill women and children, morally, it is beyond reproach, and it was seriously damaged, the desert is already fragile The economy of Yanda Khan was beheaded, and the entire desert was bound to have no leader. Inevitably, it was another dispute where each individual was fighting.

  The split of Tatar is just around the corner. Within 30 years of Ming Dynasty, there will be no foreign aggression in the north.

   Isn't this exactly what he, a cabinet scholar and household secretary, is looking forward to?

  Li Dongyang stepped forward and bowed to Zhu Houzhao: "Your Highness has a filial heart, and I admire you very much."

He didn't mention the results of the battle. To be honest, as a cabinet scholar who only talks about military affairs, it seems low-key. This is the natural way of thinking of officials, so what he emphasizes is big filial piety. Big filial piety is very advanced. .

Ma Wensheng, Minister of the Ministry of War, looked ashamed, and said in his heart, it’s too bad, the Ministry of War has spent so much money and food, but there are not many results. .

   In any case, Ma Wensheng, as Minister of the Ministry of War, knows how difficult it is for the crown prince to make such a great contribution. The dispatching of soldiers and horses, such courage, each of them is easy to say, but there are few people in the world who can do it.

Ma Wensheng looked ashamed, bowed down directly, and made a big salute: "The minister Ma Wensheng, who is the Minister of the Ministry of War, has never done anything, and his corpse is a plain meal. He is really ashamed. His Highness used thousands of horses to beg for thieves, won the head of the thieves, and beheaded thousands of people. This is an achievement." , enough to shine for thousands of years..."

  Wang Ao, Zhang Shengren, etc. were also extremely shocked.

Although Zhang Sheng always felt bad in his heart, Your Highness the Crown Prince, you have nothing to do with my family swearing to do it, and you provoked you, but Yuan Xi also followed His Highness the Crown Prince out of the customs, he was already anxious, and now the Crown Prince and Yuan Xi not only came back , and has made great achievements, what else can I say at this time, exaggerating: "Your Highness's achievements have never been seen in a thousand years!"

  Everyone looked sideways at Zhang Sheng.

  Zhang Butang, a bit exaggerated.

  The scale is directly pulled to a thousand years.

   But if you think about it carefully, the crown prince has made achievements that have not been done in a thousand years, so what kind of achievements does his son have.

  Wang Ao also bowed to Zhu Houzhao: "I used to slander His Royal Highness a lot, but now His Royal Highness protects the country and the people, and I am convinced."

   Great filial piety, affordable, and killed the chieftain.

  All these factors are superimposed.

   No one thinks that His Royal Highness is just playing for a while, rather than going out to die.

  Scholar-bureaucrats recognize this.

  Liu Jian and Xie Qian couldn't help but sigh in their hearts. They used to say that they were stubborn and stubborn, but now they know that His Royal Highness has a great shining point, which is amazing.

  Zhu Houzhao couldn't help crossing his hands, his face flushed with excitement.

  Fang Jifan looked back and knew that Zhu Houzhao was determined to be stubborn. Standing behind him, he yanked his back.

  Zhu Hou's lighting turned pale, and he put down his hand again.

  Lao Fang's aspect is simply a ready-made textbook.

Zhu Houzhao said in a modest tone: "It's nothing, but I am ashamed. I only made a few credits, but it is so exaggerated by your masters. These credits are mostly due to the holy virtue of the father and the soldiers. result."

  Thinking about it...

  Added another sentence: "It's also thanks to Ji Fan, who usually taught me a little bit."

  Fang Jifan immediately said: "I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed, I didn't teach His Royal Highness anything, His Royal Highness is self-taught, Your Highness is too modest, wait, wait, not as good as Your Highness in case!"

  ...

  The first chapter was delivered. I got up at 6:00 in the morning and wrote more than 2,000 words. Then I went to class.
