Chapter 122: It's hard to tell right from wrong

Dibaonu is dead!

The Great Yuan Empire is completely destroyed!

The son finally did it!

Father, you can rest in heaven!

After confirming the news of Di Baonu's death, Xu Huizu muttered.

......

However, Xu Huizu knew that this battle was very risky and very lucky, if he arrived two days late, the isolated Shami Chagan would either die at the hands of Ku Da or surrender to the Di Bao Nu, so that the Bao Nu would inevitably dominate the Ili River Valley, plus the Aksu, Kashgar and other places of Ku Huda and the rest of Wara, a loose tribal alliance would appear in the northwest grassland, and at that time, the situation would be very different.

The emergence of such a situation in the northwest will inevitably affect Moxi and even Mobei.

From this point of view, Xu Huizu thinks that he is meritorious.

However, Xu Huizu knew that the soldier's life and death may not bring praise, and his own risky attack actually violated the strategic decision of the Ming Dynasty - to maintain the stability of the northwest and make every effort to run Mobei.

Therefore, after occupying Yining City, Xu Huizu immediately sent a six-hundred-mile urgent messenger to the Beijing Division, which described in detail his reasons for starting the war, as well as the subsequent strategic and tactical arrangements, hoping to get the emperor's permission.

When the results of the battle were basically cleared, Xu Huizu immediately sent someone to send Ayina, the widow of the land protection slave, and her son Huhelu (actually Zada, the son of a herdsman, but unfortunately Xu Huizu did not know) to Jingshi.

Later, according to Xu Huizu's plan, the nobles of the Chagatai Khanate and Warat would go to Jingshi to meet the emperor and accept the canonization of the Ming Emperor.

Of course, this will not be possible until the situation is fully stabilized.

......

It's a pity that Xu Huizu's luck is not very good.

When he was planning to attack the Ili River Valley, there was a letter that flew to Jingshi from the northwest, accusing Xu Huizu of opening border provocations and destroying the overall situation.

Xu Huizu thought of this, so after he sent Fang Bin away, he immediately sent a letter to the emperor, suing Fang Bin, and by the way, preparing to carry out a preventive attack on the Chagatai Khanate.

But Xu Huizu also has something he can't think of.

That's what happened to Kanayama Toji.

According to Xu Huizu's order, Song Xuan led 5,000 cavalry to the southwest foot of Jinshan to intercept the Dibaonu who intended to return north.

This objectively caused the Jinshan Capital Division Headquarters to have insufficient troops, and Song Sheng only had more than 7,000 people under him.

On the day that Xu Huizu occupied Yining City, a cavalry attacked the Jinshan Dusi station, and at the same time, several tribes stationed around the Dusi waiting to be appeased rebelled, Song Sheng was caught off guard and almost died in the chaos, but fortunately Song Xuan returned in time to defeat the rebels, and the Jinshan Dusi was saved.

However, after this battle, the Ming army's deterrence of the Moxi grassland was greatly reduced, most of the tribes that had been appeased were dispersed, and the preparation for the establishment of the Jinshan Capital Division also became a bubble, and the main general Song Sheng was angry and couldn't afford to fall ill.

Song Xuan was angry and frightened, listened to Fang Bin's suggestion, and wrote to accuse Xu Huizu of chasing the wind and shadows, making mistakes in command, and greedy for merit to advance southward, resulting in the emptiness of Jinshan, allowing the Mongols to take advantage of it, and the overall situation in the northwest became more and more out of control.

At the end of the twist and turn, Song Xuan did not shirk his responsibility, but he still begged the emperor to give him another chance, and he was willing to lead the army to set foot in Moxi and rebuild the Jinshan Dusi.

......

The three folds entered Beijing one after another, and quickly caused an uproar in the court.

And the ensuing peace and Geng Xuan's recital pushed Xu Huizu to the cusp of the water.

Geng Xuan's progress was relatively smooth, except for a few tribes who fled north, most of the tribal leaders rushed to the shore of Bear Lake before the final deadline, surrendered to the Ming Dynasty, and obeyed the dispatch of Hulunbuir Dusi.

The main reason why it is so smooth is that Hulunbuir and Heilongjiang in the northeast are separated from the Xing'an Mountains, and the two places have frequent commerce and trade, and they know each other better; In addition, most of the die-hard loyalists fled with Di Baonu, and the rest of the tribes are some characters who are not loved by grandma and grandfather, so they are not resistant to surrendering to the Ming Dynasty.

Of course, there is another reason, that is, Geng Xuan fought on the shore of Bear Lake in the last years of Hongwu, killing the Mongols very much, and it has the effect of stopping children's night crying in the local area.

And in Ping'an, there are some problems.

Of course, under the deterrence of the army, there was no attack similar to Jinshan, but less than half of the tribes who arrived in Helin to accept the appeasement according to the date, and most of the remaining tribes were unwilling to be appeased, and chose to flee west and north.

It is said that the Battle of Jinshan was the result of the joint efforts of several tribes in the West, and its leader was a tribal leader named Chiktu.

At the end of the chapter, Ping An also expressed his concern, because of the Chiktu, the tribes that had accepted the appeasement showed signs of instability, and he also asked the court for his life, willing to personally lead the army to exterminate the Chiktu, completely deter the grassland, and rebuild the Jinshan Dusi.

......

Jingshi, Qianqing Palace, Dongnuan Pavilion.

Zhu Yunwen sat on the throne, listening to the arguments of the ministers below, but he fell into deep thought.

In all fairness, Zhu Yunwen was also a little annoyed, in his impression, Xu Huizu had a calm personality and was cautious, and he should not do such a thing that violated the general policy, but it happened, even if he wanted to protect Xu Huizu, he couldn't help but consider the opinions of the ministers.

Of course, if there was no defeat at Jinshan, Xu Huizu's surprise attack on the Ili River Valley would have been perfect, and it would have been praised by the government and the opposition and later historians as well as Zhang Fu's expedition to Luntai.

It's a pity that Xu Huizu didn't have such luck.

Now that the Ming Dynasty has occupied the Ili River Valley, but has lost control of Moxi Mongolia, it can even be said that the Mongols who are unwilling to submit to the Ming Dynasty are now migrating to Moxi, and it is likely to be quickly unified under the command of a leader.

Of course, there are also people who help Xu Huizu to speak, they think that Xu Huizu is also forced to do so, and if the land security slave is allowed to gain a firm foothold in the west, it will be a greater disaster; Some people even blamed Ping'an, believing that he did not dutifully appease the Mongols, but instead allowed some Mongols to flee to Moxi, which directly caused the defeat of Jinshan, and from this point of view, Ping'an needs to bear greater responsibility for the defeat of Jinshan.

Pushing the defeat of Jinshan on Ping An is a relatively novel idea, but it has always been careful, and there is a certain amount of truth, because Xu Huizu has to deal with the threat from the west and the north at the same time, and the pressure is indeed much greater than that of Ping An and Geng Xuan. In this way, Xu Huizu's mistake is also understandable.

But at the same time, some people pointed out that if Xu Huizu did not attack the Chagatai Khanate, but went all out to secure the first line of the mountain, then there might not be a problem with the Jinshan capital division, so that the Ming Dynasty could establish three capital divisions in Mobei to further strengthen the rule.

Regarding the problem of the land security slave sitting big, they believe that there is no need to worry, because the land security slave has been frightened, even if he recovers, he will not provoke the Ming Dynasty, and most of them will choose to continue to flee west.

After the discussion, everyone gradually realized that the essence of the problem is actually very simple, that is, which is more important than the Ili River Valley or the Moxi Grassland? Who is more of a threat compared to Dibaonu or Chektu?
