Chapter 184: Civil Officials Living in Fantasy
Zhu Houzhao ignored the fact that these officials used the morality of the world to admonish themselves.
Now that he hasn't returned to Beijing, he can only leave these pieces in the middle first, and then clean them up one by one after returning to Beijing!
Confucian disciples are notoriously hypocritical, full of benevolence, righteousness and morality, but full of male thieves and female prostitutes, and morality is his specialty, and Zhu Houzhao is not unaware.
Therefore, Zhu Houzhao can also guess that although these civil officials are taking advantage of the world's moral obstruction to admonish themselves, they are actually harming their interests because of this.
In the past, the Ming Dynasty was controlled by these sanctimonious hypocrites, which caused the entire empire to become more and more militarily weak, and even no longer had the possibility of opening up territory.
Therefore, Zhu Houzhao used his power as emperor to let the Ming Empire continue to move forward on the road of hegemony.
In addition to letting the border troops of each border town attack on all fronts and copy the back garden of the little prince.
He also asked the three divisions of the Guards Army and the border army of Datong to form 15,000 iron cavalry, led by Qiu Yue, and directly according to the information that Jinyiwei now had, galloped to support the Tuxie and Ordos divisions of the Mongolian right flank.
Although the desert is vast, no one is sure where the little prince and the Chahar tribe will now fight a decisive battle with the Mongolian right-wing Tushebu and the Ordos department.
But the Ming must be supported, and the Ming must interfere in the internal affairs of the Mengyuan Dynasty, because only in this way can the charm of the Ming Dynasty and the ambition of the empire be demonstrated! It's not an embroidered pillow, too!
Rao may return in vain, it doesn't matter, the cavalry is no better than the infantry, it is more mobile, and there will not be much loss.
What's more, now that the border armies of the border towns have been ordered to plunder the Hetao, the materials accumulated by the little prince in the Hetao are enough to cover the loss of the 15,000 iron horsemen of the Ming Dynasty!
……
At this time, the little prince was the great khan of the Mengyuan Dynasty, and at this time, he did not know that his Mongolian left wing 30,000 rear base had been attacked by the Ming border army, and now he was taking 50,000 iron horsemen to fight against the Mongolian right wing Tuxie and Ordos in a place called Durant.
The little prince has not yet begun to attack the Tuxie and Ordos Ministries, he is waiting for the appearance of the Chahar Ministry, he believes that the Tuxie Ministry and the Ordos Ministry will not think that he will endure the hatred of the Ming Kingdom to kill his son and directly intercept the Tuxie and Ordos Ministry, so that they cannot unite with the Ming Dynasty, and will be eaten by himself and the Chahar Ministry.
The leader of the Tuxie tribe and the leader of the Ordos tribe, Mandu Lai Agulhu, did not expect that the little prince would endure the hatred of killing his son, and waved his troops to intercept and kill his two tribes first.
Of course, they didn't really want to be with the Ming Dynasty, they just wanted to annex the little prince's Mongolian left wing by uniting the power of the Ming Dynasty.
Therefore, now, when he saw that the little prince had stopped himself and Mandu Agulhu, and that he wanted to kill himself and Mandu Agul in the name of killing his son, he also rode his horse and shouted:
"Great Khan! Jinong was killed by the Ming Emperor, if you want to seek revenge, just look for the Ming Emperor, why come to us for revenge, and what do we have to do with this! ”
"It doesn't matter how you guys! One of you is now the Shunzhong King of the Ming Dynasty, and the other is the Shunzhong King of the Ming Dynasty, since you have betrayed my Dayuan, you will be his lackey of Zhu Houzhao! Ben Khan will get rid of you two thieves first, and then settle accounts with him Emperor Ming! ”
As soon as the little prince said this, he didn't want to see that he couldn't avoid the current situation of fighting each other, so he first set up a formation to kill the little prince's department, wanting to take advantage of the little prince's unstable foothold and strike first!
The Mongolian cavalry on the left wing of the little prince's department has followed the little prince to unify the left wing of Mongolia for many years, and the archers and horses are also more skillful, and they are also rich in combat experience, and they are not afraid of the preemptive tactics of the Mongolian right wing, and they deal with it very calmly.
At that time, on the grassland where the remnant snow had not yet melted, thousands of horses galloped, and the Mongolian cavalry on both wings drew bows and urged horses, fighting and intertwining with each other, and it was difficult to solve for a while.
And the right-wing Mongolia was supported by the Ming army's short crossbows, and hundreds of cavalry pioneers were quite brave, and they brought up pieces of blood in the iron-like camp of the left-wing Mongolia.
However, at this time, the cavalry of the Chahar department rushed forward, and the sound of horses' hooves like thunder sounded behind the Mongol right flank.
At first, he thought that the Chahar cavalry was here to help him, so he became more confident at first, and shouted to the little prince:
"Great Khan! Throw in the towel! Retreat with your men! There are weapons of the Ming Kingdom, and now that the Chahar Department has also joined in, your left wing will definitely be defeated! ”
The little prince sneered and continued to fight with the Mongolian right wing with his iron horse.
At this time, the cavalry of the Chahar Department was getting closer and closer, and directly attacked the back road of the Yibu Tuxie Division, and they couldn't help but be shocked, and began to scold the leader of the Chahar Department:
"Kashketen, you traitor! You have taken refuge in the little prince! ”
The little prince laughed wildly: "Hahaha! Nor is it to be called, and Mandu is Agulhu! You are the real traitors of Dayuan! Now your time of death has come! Ben Khan gives you a chance, you can choose to kill yourself now, or Ben Khan will cut you with a thousand knives, and then let the warriors of the left flank ravage your wives and children! ”
Naturally, they were reluctant to kill themselves, so they could only gather their cavalry and charge.
In short, as soon as these Chahar cavalry joined, the Mongolian right-wing cavalry fell into a crisis of fighting on both sides, and for a time the balance of victory in the war was already tilting in favor of the little prince!
……
With the intelligence of Jinyiwei and his many years of experience in the border town, Qiu Yue really appeared in the Durrant Trigon area with 15,000 Ming iron cavalry at this time, and it was not far from the battlefield where the left and right wings of Mongolia were fighting in front, and they were all gathered on a hillside near the battlefield.
However, Qiu Yue ordered the Daming Iron Cavalry to stop at this time, and all of them hid on the opposite side of the hillside, and only sent one or two sentry cavalry to observe the enemy's situation.
Zhang Lun, who was ordered by Zhu Houzhao to follow Qiu Yue to increase his combat experience, was very puzzled when he saw this, and couldn't help but ask Qiu Yue: "General Qiu, why don't we kill him immediately!" ”
As the first time he can go into battle to kill the enemy, Zhang Lun is very excited now, and he can't wait to ride his horse to kill him now.
However, Qiu Yue lay directly on the grass, squinted and fell asleep:
"No hurry! It is not of much benefit to the Ming Dynasty to kill the past now, and after his Tuxie Department and the Ordos Department are almost killed, we will kill the past, so that we can not only borrow the hands of the Tuxie Department and the Ordos Department to consume some more combat power of the Little Prince's Department, but also borrow the hands of the Little Prince, so that the Tuxie Department and the Ordos Department can lose more men and horses;
In this way, the remnants of Mongolia in the future will not be able to recover in 30 years, and naturally they will be able to keep our Ming Dynasty peaceful for decades! It can also make the current brothers die less! This is called the sandpiper and the clam competing for the fisherman's profit! ”
Zhang Lun sighed, he didn't expect that the seemingly rugged General Qiu in front of him would be as careful as a hair, and he would have such a despicable but deceitful idea, but in any case, as a citizen of the Ming Dynasty, Zhang Lun had to admit that it was indeed right to do so.
It wasn't until the sentry came back that Yan Yongxie's troops and the Ordos troops were seriously injured and almost wanted to flee that Qiu Yue stood up, and at this time, Zhang Lun couldn't help asking: "General Qiu, can we kill it at this time?" ”
"Don't worry, the cavalry charge is not two groups of people fighting, how can you do it without a row of troops, this is 15,000 iron cavalry, not 15,000 gangsters!"
Qiu Yue and Zhang Lun have the righteousness of teachers and students, so they couldn't help but say a few more words, even if they rode over, looked at the scene of the battle between the left and right wings of Mongolia in front, and said to Zhang Lun:
"Little Grandpa Zhang, did you look at that person! That man is the little prince! The Great Khan of their Great Yuan! You take the Praetorian Guard Battalion to the front of the awkward mouth and wait, the officer kills the cavalry first, and then the situation is bound to reverse, and the little prince's department will inevitably be defeated, and after its defeat, it will break through in the direction where you are, you intercept and kill it, kill the little prince, and the Ming Dynasty can keep peace for another twenty years! ”
Qiu Yue said and gave orders to the other Ming cavalry officers, and then he held a big bow and killed the Mongolian cavalry on the battlefield.
For a while, the armor was sparkling like a flame, and the earth rumbled!
More than 10,000 Ming iron riders show the demeanor of the Han family!
The short crossbow in his hand was like a spirit snake spitting letters, and he shot a cluster of sharp arrows into it, piercing the void and killing the Mongolian left-wing cavalry who were fighting with the Mongolian right-wing cavalry to the ground!
Originally, the Yibula of the Tuxie Department and the Mandu Agulhu of the Ordos Department were already desperate, and the two of them saw that their cavalry had been killed to the ground, and they could only start to flee frantically with the remnants of the cavalry, but they didn't expect to hear a dense shouting and killing sound from behind them at this time, and it was in the Han language!
After a while, they also understood, and the two turned their heads almost at the same time, and when they saw the dazzling Mingzi banner appearing in the vast sky, they suddenly recovered their combat strength in a trance, and killed the little prince again.
"The Ming army is coming, kill!"
He didn't shout anymore, and he should kill the past first.
The Daming Iron Cavalry was like the hot magma of the Fire Mountain spewing fire, tearing apart the formation of the cavalry of the Little Prince and the Chahar Division, causing complete chaos in their rear!
All of a sudden, the tide turned!
The Chahar tribe fell and retreated, retreating in a northeasterly direction to avoid being attacked by the cavalry of the Tuxie and Ordos divisions and the Daming iron cavalry.
The little prince was greatly shocked and furious when he saw this, but he soon realized that something was wrong and began to become a little frightened, and he was busy evacuating, but at this time, it was not so easy to evacuate.
Caught off guard, the little prince was defeated by the Ming Iron Cavalry and fled.
The little prince came directly to Zhang Lun with the remnant horse, Zhang Lun killed him with the Praetorian Guard Battalion, and the killing sound shook the sky for a while, which frightened the little prince, who was already a frightened bird, even more afraid, and the remnants of the little prince's army were in turmoil again, and thousands of people were killed and captured for a while!
And the little prince still took advantage of the chaos to retreat to the area of his old nest Wuhai Mountain, while Zhang Lun was red-eyed for a while and pursued directly.
The little prince thought that when he returned to Wuhaishan, he could find an opportunity to regroup his forces and defeat the Ming Iron Cavalry and the Mongolian right wing, but as soon as he returned to Wuhaishan, he found that his lair was already full of corpses, and all parts had been burned to rubble.
The little prince, who was hungry and thirsty for a while, could not get supplies, and the remnants of his army could only kill horses to satisfy their hunger.
The little prince himself was even more furious, he didn't expect that Daming would change the style of the past and copy his own back road, but at this time, he didn't have time to think about it, because Zhang Lun relied on his youth, so he chased after him again with the Praetorian Guard Battalion, and annihilated the last remnants of the little prince, and captured the little prince alive.
However, Zhang Lun didn't know where he was now, so he could only escort the little prince to the south, and finally arrived at Shenmu Fort, where he met Liu Meng, the governor of the right deputy capital, Shi Yansui.
Liu Meng saw that Zhang Lun had only seven hundred riders and was already in rags, so he instinctively asked, "You are defeated?" His Majesty the Emperor was defeated? ”
Before Zhang Lun could say anything, Liu Meng immediately ordered his own soldiers to immediately tell Ma Wensheng that His Majesty had been defeated!
Ji Gong Yushi Bai Xian also immediately ran to Cai Kuan, saying that His Majesty was defeated, and he was afraid that the northern hunt would not return.
For a time, more and more civil officials, northern gentry, and even vassal kings were passing on the news that His Majesty had been defeated in his own conquest and might be captured.
Perhaps the powerful gentry are more willing to believe and accept this result, they want Zhu Houzhao to die, and they are about to go crazy!
In the end, even the capital also learned of the news.
Thirteen Imperial Historians Li Tiantian, Xu Zhen and other officials all rushed to tell each other: "Your Majesty's personal expedition to the outside of the Saiwai is defeated!" I'm afraid that the northern hunt has not returned! It can be seen that the poor soldiers are not the blessing of the society, and it is not the luck of the Ming Dynasty, woo! ”
