Chapter 146: News from all sides

There is no nail in the mountain, and the years do not know the year.

Although Gong Qianbai only stayed in the barracks for a month, when Gong Qianbai came out of the customs, news came from all sides that the circle about him had changed greatly.

First of all, in the north, Xuanjing Wang Mai Nu carried the Qingfeng Sword Technique into Beijing under the protection of the two half-immortals, although he was disguised along the road, and took a long detour, and the government sent masters along the way to help, but when the Xuanjing King entered the capital, the two half-immortals were all dead, and even the Xuanjing King Mai Nu also lost his arms, and the Qingfeng Sword Law was only half of it.

It is rumored that when the general of the capital saw the miserable situation of King Xuanjing buying slaves, there were tears in his eyes, and Prime Minister Yan Timur, Minister Boyan and others were even more indignant.

And King Xuanjing cried directly in front of Yuan Wenzong and fainted.

In a row, under the appeasement of Yuan Wenzong and the ministers, the buying of slaves gradually calmed down. For this reason, the title of Mainu was promoted to Yiwang, and the maximum number of troops was raised to 100,000. Randomly buying slaves directly passed the title of King Yi to Tara on the grounds of their own cripples, that is, Gong Qianbai.

As for the request to buy slaves, no one in the Manchu Dynasty objected, but they all sympathized with him.

The family that bought slaves managed to keep the two demi-immortals, and now all of them have been killed, and no matter how many family soldiers there are without the support of demi-immortals, they are just a group of toothless wolves, and they can't pose a threat at all.

Moreover, the Mongols had a limited population, and most of the 100,000 men were eventually recruited from the Han Chinese.

Now, the edict of canonizing Gong Qianbai as King Yi is expected to arrive in Yidu City after that.

And then there's the South.

The final news came from the South Temple, due to the solidarity of the Langke Temple, Qingyang Temple, Tzu Chi Palace, etc., at present, Lingnan, Fujian, Hainan and other places have been controlled by the South Temple, and a large number of poor Han people have fled to the south.

The sphere of influence of the south hall is currently bordered by Zhu in the west and the Three Buddhas in the south, which is very vast. And because he was in the middle of the sea, Sun Wu had already ordered the development of the navy. In addition to Sun Wu, Wang Chan, Xue Li, and Xia Luqi guarding Shenglong, Cao Bin guarding Zhongnan, Wang Jian guarding Lingnan and southern Fujian, and Liu Fang, Gao Gong, and Meng Heng jointly guarding Zhenla and Zhancheng, the remaining Zhou Yu, Zong Ze, Deng Yu, Lu Kang, and Xie Xuan respectively formed a navy and were stationed in various places along the coast, specializing in naval warfare.

In addition, half a month ago, the Mongol soldiers guarding Sichuan gathered 150,000 troops and sent them to Yunnan to fight (of course, only 20,000 of these 150,000 were Mongols), and were finally annihilated in Nanzheng by Yue Fei and Xiang Yu with an ambush

Han Xin of the West Hall took advantage of the emptiness of Sichuan and sent troops to attack the checkpoints of various cities in Sichuan, and at present, the entire Sichuan and Hanzhong have fallen into the hands of Han Xin. This move caused the Mongols to be angry, and they are now recruiting troops to retake Sichuan.

But at present, Yue Fei and Xiang Yu are stationed in the White Emperor City, and they may go east at any time, so the Mongols do not dare to act rashly.

In addition, the Ministry of Military, the Ministry of Commerce, and the Ministry of Cooperation have been stationed in Hanzhong, and the Left and Right Ministries have been stationed in Guangzhou. The forces under Gong Qianbai have basically occupied half of the country, which has greatly shocked the Mongols.

Further to the west.

News came from Daguang Villa that the marriage of Gong Qianbai and Chu Liyan had been decided, and the two could get married after they became adults.

In order to cooperate with Gong Qianbai's actions in Yidu City, Gong Jing personally took action, Gong Buyi, Gong Budong, Chu Renliang, Kang Mingdao and others led a group of colleagues in the rivers and lakes to constantly harass and slaughter the Yidu Road military camp, all the officers above the commander of ten were assassinated, and there were less than 10,000 ordinary Mongolian soldiers left.

And because Gong Qianbai was in the underground secret room, he didn't suffer any damage.

This crazy assassination act is, of course, a guerrilla tactic personally directed by Gong Qianbai. It wasn't until a few days ago that the reinforcements from the Gong Qianbai court arrived, and it officially ended.

At the same time, with the help of the Great Guangming Villa, the Ministry of Strategy has been stationed in the Heluo area, and is ready to establish the center of the Ministry of Planning here to collect intelligence.

Regarding the news of the iron pot of the Dayuan Temple, Jingjiang Road is on the front line, and the iron pot has been guarded in the Dayuan Temple, accompanied by Zhao Gao, and is currently safe and sound; Li Cunxiao and 14 other members of the Ministry of Health disappeared mysteriously, but they actually received a secret letter from Gong Qianbai and turned to Yidu City.

At the same time, Xu Shiji of the East Palace, who was invited by Gong Qianbai to command the soldiers and horses of Qingzhou, has secretly entered Yidu City from the south of the Yangtze River, and is waiting for Gong Qianbai's summons in Xuanjing Palace.

……

Gong Qianbai listened to Gao Lishi's report on the road, and sighed in his heart.

It is not that he laments the rapid expansion of his territory, but that he laments the external strength of the Great Yuan Dynasty under the rule of the Mongols.

I remember that there has always been a mystery in the history of the Yuan Dynasty in another time and space, that is, the issue of the garrisons of the Yuan Dynasty in various places has always been a highly confidential matter. During the nearly 100 years that the Yuan Dynasty ruled China, no one knew even the approximate situation of the garrison.

Combined with the battle reports of the south hall and the west hall, Gong Qianbai had a hunch in his heart that the Yuan Dynasty had almost no garrisons in various places, and the vast majority of the military camps may only be a small number of sergeants bluffing, and tens of thousands of Mongols were temporarily assembled only during the battle.

The reason is very simple, at the beginning of the establishment of the Yuan Dynasty, although the Mongol army was invincible, the total number was only more than 100,000 people. Even with the addition of the Tanma Red Army, which was attached to the various Mongolian tribes, it was only about 100,000 people more.

The main army of the Yuan Dynasty was the "Zahuti", which consisted of Khitans, Jurchens and Han Chinese, with about 1 million men.

1.2 million people, which sounds like a lot, but the territory of the Yuan Dynasty was too large and too large, and it was very small to disperse to the whole country.

At the same time, there is another problem with these armies, that is, the composition is too complex and the thinking is not uniform.

Zahuti was composed of Khitans, Jurchens, and Han Chinese, and was in contradiction with the Mongols, so it would be strange if they could die for the Mongols wholeheartedly.

For example, the 50,000 troops under the command of King Xuanjing are all dressed up in Mongolian Rao, but there are only 5,000 real Mongols in it, 5,000 people in the Tanma Red Army, and almost all of the remaining 40,000 people are Han Chinese.

It is no wonder that at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, peasant uprisings broke out one after another, and the suppressed troops were sent from other places; In the end, when Xu Da and Chang Yuchun attacked the city, they almost hit Yuan Dadu directly all the way unimpeded.

It seems that the current army of the Yuan Dynasty, in terms of overall strength, 1.2 million is not as powerful as the clean 100,000 Mongols.

In this way, it is not difficult to lay down the land south of the Yellow River, but it is the Mongolian Rao base camp north of the Yellow River.

But south of the Yellow River, there are many, many landlord classes, who are dependent on the Mongols to exploit the Han Chinese, and control most of the land resources, and these people are the target of Gong Qianbai.
