Chapter Ninety-One: The Ugly Deqi Can't Get Along

After Chao Xing left, Lu Yunzhi had an overview of the power of the Northern Army, and Zhu Jianwen became Lu Yunzhi's deputy, Zhu Jianwen likes power, but he was not confused by power, his current identity as the king of the king was not the one who rebelled with Lu Yunyi and the king of Qin, and the real knife and real gun were spelled out, and the identity of the king has been idle because of collusion with Yu Qian.

Now that he can add nine tin for the hereditary replacement of the king, it is Lu Yunzhi's reward in the same vein, whether it is brotherly love or not, it is to cover up the mouth of Youyou, in short, the power is not his own, and it doesn't hurt Lu Yunzhi to take it, thinking of the lesson that his father Zhu Qizhu gave him with his life, Zhu Jianwen clenched his fists, clenched his teeth, looked at the Chinese army tent where Lu Yunzhi was secretly ruthless, thinking that one day he would be able to cover the sky with one hand and raise his eyebrows, at this moment, he had no intention of hurting Lu Yunzhi's life,

The Ming Dynasty was divided into three armies to meet the enemy, Zhen Lingdan, who was facing the enemy in the west, had already guarded the pass and stopped moving forward because of the ghosts and witches, waiting for the arrival of the Great Tomorrow Division's camp, while Lu Yunzhi in the middle was at the end of the Gobi, waiting for the arrival of the Wara army, wanting to take advantage of the fact that they were just passing through the desert and exhausted to catch him off guard.

In contrast, Bai Yong's men and horses were much easier, he led elite cavalry and light infantry, so they marched faster, the reason why they were easy was because Meng He knew that Lu Yunzhi's main force was in the middle and rear, and in order to prevent Lu Yunzhi from approaching the hinterland of Wara step by step and breaking their foundation, he transferred back to the east all the way.

Meng He once thought about this problem, in fact, there are three ways to deal with Lu Yunzhi's arrangement, one of which is to put them into the grassland, the infantry on the plain does not have an advantage, and they can't catch up with the cavalry, the infantry camp of the Ming army can only play an effective role when there are a large number of troops in the formation, and the ability to act is poor, so you can use the combat method of loitering and fighting while retreating to drag down the Ming army, or divide and attack it, and slowly weaken the strength of the Ming army.

The advantage of this is that the Ming army needs to put a lot of manpower and material resources into the Mongolian grassland, so that the domestic army is stretched, as long as Meng He provokes the Ming Dynasty territory or some people in the frontier to rebel or attack, the Ming Dynasty is in danger, not to mention that even if the country is poured out, it may not be able to fill the entire Mongolian grassland, unless the entire Ming Dynasty is moved to the grassland, every inch of land is almost the same as a person,

Because the Mongols are not like the Han people, they live in large cities, and the Mongols are a tribe-based horse people, settled according to the water source, climate, prey and the growth of grass, so the Ming army could not occupy the city like the Mongols attacked the Han people, even if they raided quickly, they might occupy just empty yurts.

The old and weak women and children of the tribe had already fled when they saw the attack of the army, besides, even if they couldn't run, it was women and old people or something, and the Mongols didn't care too much, as long as there were warriors who could fight, it was enough, and as for women, they thought they could also plunder from the Han people,

The Ming army had no cities to capture, that is to say, there were no resources and living forces to control, and there were no fortified cities to defend, and it was too troublesome to rebuild and need to transport building materials over long distances, so theoretically this plan had all the benefits and no harm.

But in fact, it is necessary to explain the reality according to the climate, now is the time when the green and yellow are not connected, although the Mongols do not farm, but the grass always has to grow, without the grass war horses what to eat, what the livestock eat, without the livestock Mongolian army even if the grain is cut off, the Mongolian steppe is not full of fertile grassland, there are still so many important water sources and grasslands, weekdays are occupied by large tribes, if the Ming army occupies these places, only in these places to build high walls and wait for the battle, the final collapse must be the Mongols,

Now the Ming army does not dare to do this, Meng He's army has not withdrawn, blocking in front of the Ming army, even if Meng He adopts this strategy, because the Ming army enters the urn Ming army may not dare to do so, not to mention that the Ming army infantry on the road may be hit by their heaven and earth Mongolian cavalry on the grassland, even if they pay the price of blood to occupy the water source and fertile land on the grassland, the logistics supply is also very dangerous,

From the far Ming Dynasty to transport weapons and grain and grass, it is inevitable to send several times the grain team to protect the grain and grass, to prevent the Mongols from blocking the road and robbing, the rations brought by the grain team should be two or three times the grain and grass, otherwise the food will be eaten without walking back, and it is more impractical to learn Yu Qian to bring food with soldiers, which is close to the time before this policy was taken, and now the road is far away, who can carry a few months of rations, in short, this war has become a protracted war and a war of attrition on both sides, whether it is the Ming army or the Mongols have more than they gain, so Meng He gave up,

The strategy is much easier to say, it is still to give up Mongolia, all eastward or westward, bypass the two armies of the Ming army, attack one of them with all their might, and enter the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty after defeating, if the situation is good, it can smoothly travel a hundred miles a day to attack the city and pull out the village, and the Ming and Mongolia will drop one by one, and when the Ming army comes to the rescue, the Ming Dynasty has been occupied by the Mongols, and the Ming army and the country are dead, there is no motivation to fight, if they want to retreat, they can only retreat to Mongolia, and it is difficult for the Han people to survive in the Mongolian steppe. Again, as with the first plan, even if they occupied the steppe, they could not completely occupy it, because there were no cities there, so even if the Mongol army changed its mind halfway, it would be possible to quickly retreat and restore the current situation of the army, which was not too much of a loss.

It's just that in this way, it is necessary to make a quick decision with the troops, see the real chapter within fifty days, overthrow the Ming Dynasty, even if it can't be overthrown, kill the emperor to conquer their Kyoto and Beijing, besiege Wei to save Zhao in the capital to eliminate the Ming army that came back to rescue,

If there is no achievement in the 50th day and is blocked outside the city, the Ming army will definitely step up the deployment of the frontier after returning to help, and then the Mongolian army will be trapped in the territory of the Ming Dynasty.

So Meng He chose the third strategy and withdrew the army of the East Road, because the Ming army on the East Road was the least, and according to the intelligence, the general was also a young Bai Yong, so Meng He didn't take it seriously, thinking that Bai Yong was just a general who could lead a thousand people, and more than 10,000 people would be in chaos.

The Ming army has always been superior in numbers, and now Meng He wants to fight a war of equal strength, in the past, under the condition of weak troops, the Mongolian iron cavalry can still have the upper hand, and now the strength is equal and may even be superior, so who will the victory belong to?

Meng He thought of a sentence in the book of sages of the Han people, "Mencius": Today, the ugly Deqi of the earth, Mo can not be compatible, is it really that no one can help anyone, Meng He smiled, he saw the victory, and he also knew what he was doing for, which was related to the rise and fall of the Mongols, so he looked at the south and said lightly: "Anda, today's battle is really a last resort, it seems that either you die or I die." ”
