Volume 3 Chapter 27 The House Thief

The battle between the Ming Dynasty and the Northern Yuan Dynasty did not stop once or twice, nor did it only occur in the Jiajing Dynasty, from the Ming Dynasty to capture the capital, the Yuan Shun Emperor fled north, the battle between the Ming Dynasty and the Northern Yuan Dynasty never stopped, to the Jiajing Dynasty, the two sides intermittently, you come and go, has been entangled for nearly two hundred years.

At the beginning, the Ming Dynasty occupied an absolute advantage, the Hongwu Dynasty eight Northern Expeditions, the Yongle Dynasty's five out of the Mobei, the Northern Yuan Dynasty can be said to have only the ability to parry without the power to fight back, especially the Northern Yuan Dynasty, the king of Henan, the right prime minister of the book to expand Timur, that is, after the death of the famous Wang Baobao, the Northern Yuan Dynasty was beaten by the Ming Dynasty to the point that they could not raise their heads, and there were countless people who surrendered.

Originally, with the increasing strength of the Ming Dynasty, the fall of the Northern Yuan seemed to be only a matter of time, whether it was to fight the economy or the military, the Northern Yuan who fled to the outside of the Saiwai could not be the opponent of the Ming Dynasty in the Central Plains.

However, during the orthodox years of Yingzong of the Ming Dynasty, the Northern Yuan Taishi Wara Department also entered the army first, but it completely subverted the world's cognition.

At that time, the Ming soldiers were strong and strong, there were millions of soldiers in the nine-sided town, and there were 500,000 elite soldiers left by Chengzu when he went out of Mobei, and the national strength of the Ming Dynasty was like the sky, so to speak, there was no country in the whole world that could compete with it.

At that time, the Northern Yuan Taishi of the Warat Department was also attacking the Uliangha tribe of the Northern Yuan Tatar Department, and he had tens of thousands of cavalry under him, and even the military rations were not ready, and he had to beg for food with the Ming Dynasty.

As a result, Daming didn't give food, and he was angry first, and directly led the army south and began to attack Daming.

His original intention was actually just to grab some food, I lowered my head and begged you Daming for food, but you didn't give it, then I could only grab it myself.

This kind of plundering type of invasion also often happens, there is no grain on the grassland, and there is no way to be hungry, the Northern Yuan Dynasty will go south to grab grain, anyway, they are all cavalry, as long as they are not entangled with the Ming border army, the Ming border army will have nothing to do with them.

At the beginning, he really didn't think about defeating the main force of the Ming army, let alone capturing the Ming Emperor, he only had a total of tens of thousands of cavalry, which was not an order of magnitude compared to the millions of border troops and 500,000 forbidden troops of the Ming Dynasty.

However, at this time, Ming Yingzong actually listened to the slander of the great eunuch Wang Zhen, drove the expedition in person, and led more than 200,000 troops to the front line of Xuanfu.

To be honest, Wang Zhen didn't think about fighting a decisive battle with Yexian and defeating the Northern Yuan Wara Division, the reason why he took Yingzong to drive the expedition was just to go back to his hometown to show off, because his hometown was in Xuanfu Town, in Ulzhou.

He can be said to be in power at this time, and even Yingzong obeys his words and is very angry, so he wants to take Yingzong to Ulzhou for a turn, meet his relatives, and have a good time.

Unexpectedly, this turn, something happened, because he took the main force of the Ming army everywhere, the front line Ming army collapsed, as soon as he heard that the Ming army on the front line collapsed, he was even more frightened of the six gods, for a while he wanted to take Yingzong back to Beijing, and for a while he wanted to take Yingzong to his hometown of Ulzhou to show off, this time, the Ming army's marching route became like a convulsion, a while to run in the direction of the capital, a while to run in the direction of Ulzhou, running around, always running on the road.

In fact, at this time, as long as he takes Yingzong into Juyong Pass, it will be fine, and it is impossible for the gods to lead tens of thousands of cavalry to break through Juyong Pass, which is garrisoned by more than 200,000 Ming troops.

However, he still wanted to take Yingzong to his hometown Ulzhou for a turn, so he was like a psychopath, taking Yingzong to run around Xuanfu Town, exhausting more than 200,000 Ming troops, not to mention killing the enemy, standing there without moving his legs and stomachs.

As a result, he also chased to Tumubao first, picked up a cheap one in vain, and also picked up an emperor in vain, more than 200,000 elite Ming troops collapsed without a fight, Yingzong was captured, and famous generals such as British Duke Zhang Fu and Chengguo Duke Zhu Yong were all killed in battle.

The so-called unintentional insertion of willows and willows, the great eunuch Wang Zhen and the Northern Yuan Taishi also "joined forces" to create a miracle in the history of human warfare, more than 200,000 elite Ming army collapsed without fighting with the Tartar cavalry, you must know that the total number of cavalry under Ye Xian is less than 80,000!

This absurd battle also became a turning point in the Hundred Years War between the Ming Dynasty and the Northern Yuan Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty turned from prosperity to decline inexplicably, and the Northern Yuan Dynasty began to occupy the initiative on the battlefield, and since then it has turned from defense to attack.

It has been nearly a hundred years since the end of the battle of Tumubao, and the Ming Dynasty has also been "invaded" by the Northern Yuan Dynasty for nearly a hundred years, and the nine-sided towns of the Ming Dynasty are increasingly dilapidated, and the border army of the Ming Dynasty is also weakening day by day because of the prevalence of corruption in the court, and the officials are fighting for power and profit, so that the Northern Yuan Dynasty departments are more unscrupulous to bully the Ming Dynasty.

This is especially true of the 30,000 princes of the right wing of the Northern Yuan Tatar Department, Ji Nang, who has been fighting the autumn wind in the Ming Dynasty almost every year since he dominated the grassland.

This year is the same, in February, he gathered more than 100,000 troops in Hetao, ready to go to Daming to fight the autumn wind.

At this time, going to Daming to fight the autumn wind has formed a certain routine, that is, to lead the army to go around in Yansui, Ningxia, Ganzhou and other towns in Shaanxi to see if there is any cheap to make money, and then go to Xuanfu and Datong towns in Shanxi to loot.

Ji Nang is also familiar with this, and even he has arranged spies in various border towns, and he knows the movements of the Ming border army well.

He first led the army to Ningxia Town, which was closest to Hetao, and was ready to try the fire of the Ming army, but as a result, he reported that Ningxia Town was well defended, and the fighting spirit of the border army was quite high.

As a result, the fine work of Yansui Town also came to report, and the defense here was also very tight.

He has suffered a big loss here, if people are really desperate, not to mention the heavy losses, he may not be able to reap the benefits, so he turned his horse's head and led the army to the west of Ganzhou Town.

At this time, Xizuo finally came to report that the defense of Ganzhou Town was not very tight, and it seemed that there was a lot to be done.

However, just as Ji Nang was about to lead the army commander to drive straight in and plunder happily, Qiu Luan, the commander of Ganzhou Town, sent a messenger to the Marquis of Xianning.

What's going on?

Could it be that this Xianning Marquis Qiuluan is ready to lead the army to surrender!

This kind of thing has not happened, although the loyalty of the Ming border army is very high, but the generals who lead the troops are not necessarily loyal to the monarch and patriotism, there are always some wretched people who are wasted for corruption and wages, relying on relationships and means to take the position, become the chief soldier or governor of a town, this kind of person, once they encounter a strong enemy, it is not impossible to surrender.

Ji Nang is naturally quite expectant of this kind of person, and it would be great to be able to take a border town without bloodshed, and even take advantage of this to drive straight into the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty and loot it wantonly.

He hurriedly sent his generals and personal guards, and then ordered someone to invite the envoy of the Marquis of Xianning Qiu Luan into the tent, this surrender is not a glorious thing, he naturally wants to give people a chance to meet alone.

The person who came was Shi Yi, a close confidant of Xianning Hou Qiuluan, he didn't come to discuss surrender with Ji Nang, Xianning Hou Qiuluan's ambition is not small, how could people surrender to Ji Nang for no reason and ruin his future.

After Shi Yi entered the tent, he respectfully Gong Xianning Hou Qiu Luan said: "The villain Xianning Hou Mansion is the guest Shi Yi to see the king. ”

Ji Nang nodded with a smile and said, "Well, what did the Marquis of Xianning send you to do?" ”

Shi Yitian said shamelessly: "The king, our lord doesn't want to meet the king, so he sent a villain to make peace." ”

It turned out that he came to seek peace, it's okay, if you want Lao Tzu not to beat you, you have to give some benefits, he is here to reap benefits, this kind of thing that can get benefits without a soldier is naturally begging.

However, he also knows how to negotiate, and he knows that at this time he should not appear to be very interested, but should appear uninterested.

He directly turned his face and snorted coldly: "What are you kidding, do you think that this king is here to play with hundreds of thousands of troops?" I don't want to see each other in battle, I want to be beautiful, go back and tell you Lord Hou, wash your neck, and wait for this king to cut it! ”
