Text_Chapter 429 Zhuang, my Ming sergeant

Looking at the map in front of him, Zhu Youxiao's gaze wandered, and he was a little unsure of what choice to make. [No pop-ups. At this time, after two months of rectification and unification of the eastern and western wings of Mongolia, almost the entire territory of Inner Mongolia in later generations was under his rule.

In such a situation, Zhu Youxiao also gradually screened war horses and equipped his cavalry with war horses, and now he can basically achieve the appearance of one person, two horses, or even three horses, and has the ability to run long distances.

Although in terms of offensive ability, the cavalry is not as good as the infantry that is almost entirely firearmed, but its mobility ability far exceeds that of the infantry. And this advantage is extremely obvious in the Mongolian steppe, which is relatively flat and vast.

And now, the infantry is being sent by him to carry out tasks in the country, and now he can only rely on these 100,000 cavalry. Although their equestrianism is not as good as that of the Mongols, who grew up on horseback. However, Zhu Youxiao's cavalry did not rely on hand-to-hand combat, nor did they draw their bows.

They relied on short guns, riding spears, sabers, and iron armor, and using the impact of horses, they only needed to put the saber in position, and it would be extremely lethal. Therefore, in just three years, he has assembled such a powerful cavalry unit.

In the past, the brilliance of the cavalry was overshadowed by the great power of muskets and artillery, which made people subconsciously ignore their role, but now the grassland is far away, and the infantry is inconvenient, and it is time for the cavalry to show their skills.

It's just that who should be chosen?

Zhu Youxiao rubbed his chin and frowned in thought.

He attacked two targets, one was Qinghai, and the other was the Jurchens, who were in Qiqihar and were currently thriving in land reclamation. The Ming Dynasty's power did not run through Qinghai, but only reached the Xining region in the eastern part of Qinghai, where it established an independent guard station, Xining Wei, as the center of its rule.

The governance strategy here is the same as that of the Tusi in Guizhou and Sichuan, which is to canonize the leaders of the local tribes, and use the tea and horse markets to make them contain each other and use them for my use.

Qinghai is like this, not to mention that it is still farther away in Xinjiang, where it is basically Weitra, that is, the territory of Wathorn, and Daming has no tentacles at all. The same is true of Tibet.

In this area, the Ming Dynasty set up the Wusi Tibetan Division, but its leaders are the same as the Tusi system, are hereditary by the locals, local lamas, monks, tribal leaders, etc., have accepted the canonization of the Ming Dynasty, and served as the commander of the capital, Tongzhi, Tongzhi and other official positions, and implemented the rule of bondage.

However, the influence of the Ming Dynasty on this region is limited to this, at most the occasional local competition is not down, I thought of the master of the Ming Dynasty, and then sent officials to mediate, and the rest is the influence brought by the mutual market, if you want to say what direct rule and control, there is no at all.

For a big governmentist like Zhu Youxiao, it is obviously his own territory, but he can't call the shots, which is really more uncomfortable than killing him, so at this time, there is really a kind of ** that moves westward and flattens the tribes there.

And this is also the reason why he is extremely entangled at the moment, compared with the nomadic tribes in Tibet, Qinghai and Xinjiang, the Jurchens in the northeast seem to be more threatening. Although they were driven to Qiqihar by Zhu Youxiao, their foundation was not damaged, and the women and girls were young and young, and after merging with Horqin, there were no less.

What's more, their leader is still Huang Taiji, a figure who can be called an eloquent and strategic figure who laid the foundation for the Manchu Qing Dynasty's entry into the customs, let such a person develop alone in the Northeast for a year, Zhu Youxiao is really a little uneasy.

Although he had ordered Dongchang to carry out a certain amount of persuasion and guidance through the internal eyeline of the Jurchens, he was not sure whether the other party would really move so easily and move to the west.

Therefore, there are two paths before him at this moment, march into Qinghai, and then Tibet, and establish effective rule there. Wave the army to the east, from Mongolia into Liaodong, drive the Jurchen tribes, all the way to the west.

As for why ...... westward

After the two generations of the Han Dynasty defeated the Xiongnu one after another, some of the Xiongnu moved westward, and finally more than 100 years later, there was a whip of God Attila in Europe, which turned Europe upside down, repeatedly attacked the Roman Empire, surrounded Constantinople, and even hit the Gallic region, which was really majestic.

Since the Huns back then could produce such a character, what about the Jurchen? Since the surrender of Nuer Hachi, the Jurchen tribe has really been in addition to many good characters, such as the regent Dolgon in later generations, and some other iron hat kings or something, all of whom have good qualifications, and they have risen to the top with a little experience.

Houjin has a tradition of recruiting wild Jurchens, and now after staying in these places in Qiqihar for a year, there are many wild Jurchens who want to come, coupled with the tempering of going all the way to the west, without the corruption of the rich materials of the Central Plains, the Jurchen Eight Banners will definitely not be corrupted and degenerate, and if they really go to the west, they will definitely not live in peace.

Just think about it, it must be very interesting to drive such a barbaric tribe of hundreds of thousands over and act as a-stirring stick in Europe.

Thinking about the future, some white skins in the West, with a pig's tail whip dragging behind his head, Zhu Youxiao almost couldn't help but want to laugh.

Anyway, Tibet, Qinghai and other places will not run, and the same is true of Tibet's Warat, there are no great figures in history, and the most powerful one is only Geerdan during the Kang Mazi period of the Qing Dynasty, which will take hundreds of years, far less than the threat of Huang Taiji.

One is near-suffering, and the other is a long-term worry that I don't know if it will appear, how to choose, naturally clear and clear.

"It's decided, wave the army to the west, and force the Jurchen." Zhu Youxiao's eyes froze, and he paid attention.

He is the supreme commander of the army, his idea is certain, the army naturally moved, suddenly, the entire camp at the foot of Daqing Mountain shouted horses neighing, boiling back to the sky, equipment, supplies, tents, munitions, etc., a series of things were packed and loaded with horses.

Unlike the logistics of the infantry, which carries many carts, the logistics of the cavalry unit is all mounted on horses. They rode two horses, and one more to carry supplies. Of course, that horse was an ordinary Mongolian horse, not a war horse.

If you count it from this point of view, Zhu Youxiao's people can also be called one person and three horses. Even, Zhu Youxiao still has a lot of horses, which are used to transport some powerful firearms. For example, more than a dozen mortars, dozens of coffin-like 'city gate flying' and so on. There are those who attack fortifications, and there are those who break the enemy, and they are really well prepared.

An hour later, the 100,000 iron horsemen were finished

Woooooo

The low, reckless sound of the bull's horn continued to resound between heaven and earth, and the melodious sound was heard by the Guihua City in the south, and for a while, the herdsmen there and the Han people who had just migrated were at a loss to look around.

Although the time of two months is short, it has changed the whole appearance of the Naturalization City, not only the vast outer city has been established, the original trade area has been included, and even the original deserted land has been reclaimed and developed.

Outside the naturalization city, cattle and sheep are everywhere, herdsmen are holding scissors, and they are constantly shearing their wool, and in some river beach lands, which have been reclaimed at this time, the fields are neat and orderly, and there are pits planed on them, and I don't know what is planted in them.

When the low sound of the horn came, the busy herdsmen, the hard-working farmers, all looked around in a daze, looking left and right, trying to find the source of the sound, but their efforts were in vain, until the sound of the horn disappeared, and they did not find any suspicious target.

I can only vaguely confirm that the sound seems to be coming from the north.

Northern?

Isn't that where His Majesty the Holy Emperor is stationed? Some farmers who were more concerned about local affairs suddenly thought. There is no way, being in such a place of four wars, a strange place, they have to care about the security here, and when the officials asked them to come over, they also promised that the emperor would be stationed here, so what else is there to worry about.

Therefore, they still vaguely knew about the emperor's station, and when they heard the sound of the horn coming from there, they faintly felt a trace of uneasiness in their hearts.

"Nothing will happen, will it?" The peasants were uneasy to think that they had obtained cattle and sheep here, obtained land, had houses to live in, and wool agreements that could guarantee income, and even some people had obtained good positions in the wool processing factories here, all kinds of benefits, which naturally made them cherish the hard-won life here, and prayed every day that His Majesty could rule here for a long time.

Compared with the peasants, those Mongolian herdsmen are much calmer, they have always been half-herding and half-soldiers, although they have not been in battle, but they have also galloped through the steppe, know some rules, usually such a horn sound, is a sign of soldiers and horses.

"I don't know if it's the cavalry there, let's hope it's the Great Khan of the Golden Family who will save us." The herdsmen, who were shearing their wool, thought unpleasantly, and then stared at the peasants with malicious eyes, making the peasants even more uneasy.

"It's not really going to happen." The Han peasant hugged his hoe in fear, ready to wait for something to happen to defend himself.

The herdsmen naturally didn't know how many troops were stationed in the north, but they knew that at this time, Guihua City was under the jurisdiction of the Han people, and the herdsmen of their small tribes were the same. Therefore, I am unhappy that these Han people do not have to pay taxes, and they dare not make times.

I can only secretly look forward to it.

Thundered!

Sure enough, the familiar tremors came from the ground, and the violent shaking made the farmers uneasy, and the herdsmen were surprised and even panicked. With their experience, they could roughly tell how many horses were running.

At least 300,000 horses! A full 300,000 horses trampled on the ground at the same time to produce this vibration that they could faintly feel on the soles of their feet.

However, this data made them die, in the entire Mongolian region, except for the steppe co-lord Lin Dan Khan, almost no Great Khan could come up with so many cavalry.

"Maybe it's just a large herd of cattle, sheep and horses, it's definitely not the cavalry of the Han people." The herdsman guessed hopefully.

As the sound of vibration approached, a black line appeared in the sky, and then quickly expanded, and a violent rushing sound sounded, and the sound of trampling like thunder continued.

Batch after batch, pile after pile of cavalry galloped by, bringing up large clouds of smoke and dust. The sun and moon double-wheeled flags of hunting and hunting undoubtedly reveal the identities of these cavalrymen.

Shocked, extremely shocked.

Whether it was a herdsman shearing sheep, a farmer hoeing the field, or a small tribe who drove cattle, sheep and horses, and brought all their belongings to trade and pay taxes, the soldiers stationed at the head of the city and the officials who rushed to hear the news all looked at the large cavalry that shuttled by.

Many people's hearts were filled with caution because of the change of hands of the Naturalization City, and in the face of the powerful military force, it completely collapsed.

"Strong, I'm a Ming sergeant!" At the head of the city, Chen Xin, who is also the planning prefect as the left senator of the Mongolian province, looked at the cavalry galloping outside the city, and his face was full of relief and admiration.

:Today, I paid attention to it temporarily, and found that the chapter number was wrong, and now it has been corrected, I hope it will not affect your reading. Let's take a chapter first, and the second chapter is still in the yard, so wait.
