When Tang Wang saw it, he was a little anxious. This matter, for him, is to press the future of the Tang Palace, and the savings of the Tang Mansion for hundreds of years, if he loses, it will be a loss. In other words, the imperial court can afford to lose, but he can't afford to lose!

Seeing Min Hongxue take a sip and put the teacup on the desk, he couldn't help but say with a little anxiety again: "Old Min Ge, this matter has to be prevented!" ”

Min Hongxue listened, saw that he was very anxious, understood his anxiety, and said with a smile: "Your Highness, there are people in those toasts who have colluded with Dongwu, this is a sure thing......"

Hearing that he was so sure, Tang Wang was so anxious that he couldn't wait for him to finish speaking, so he couldn't help but interrupt, frowned, and said with anxiety: "Then what can I do?" What can I do? ”

"Your Highness, there is no need to panic about this matter!" Min Hongxue had to comfort him and said, "The emperor's will came, and for His Royal Highness's decision to lay down Dongwu and divide the seal, it is only allowed to succeed and not fail!" On this point, Your Highness can rest assured! ”

Speaking of this, he saw that King Tang's face looked a little better, so he continued: "Whether it is the news from the emperor's side or the news from the fine work we sent, now the King of Talong in this cave is a character, and it is not so easy to deal with. Now he is trying to recuperate and consolidate his rule. The longer it drags on, the more favorable it will be! It is also because of this that the emperor will agree to His Royal Highness's request to allow you to lead troops to the battle before the follow-up army has been trained! ”

The soldiers of this army, as well as ordnance and materials, etc., were all paid by the Tang King, and they belonged to the army that the Tang King founded in Dongwu after the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, the supreme commander of this army is the Tang King, which is also the reason why the Tang King can arm this army as much as possible and ration it with sufficient provisions. Therefore, the Tang king had a great say in this army. And it is precisely because he has a great right to speak, and it just proves that the emperor and the court are true to their word, and they really want to help him build a country in Dongwu and complete the feudal overseas move.

Min Hongxue is actually a little optimistic about King Tang's ability, after all, not every young person has the ability of the emperor. Since he has been in contact with Tang Wang for more than a year, Min Hongxue feels that Tang Wang is a little anxious for quick success and quick profit, and his temperament is not calm enough. Of course, this also has something to do with his age and experience.

At this time, I heard Min Hongxue say slowly: "Dongwu's strength cannot be underestimated, from the fact that they can unify the entire Dongwu and drive Xiyi's army out of their land, all kinds of circumstances show that this Dongwu's battle to destroy the country must be cautious!" “

"Yes, yes, Elder Ge is so right!" When Tang Wang heard this, he quickly nodded in agreement. Min Hongxue's attitude made him very satisfied. However, he was worried about what had happened before, so he thought about asking what was the solution?

But before he could ask, Min Hongxue was already saying again: "Therefore, the goal of the first stage of our battle this time is to occupy Mengyang, Mengmi and Mubang with lightning speed, and then wait for the attack, consume Dongwu's strength, and wait until the follow-up troop training is completed, and the flintlock pistol and other militaristic heavy weapons are equipped, and then find an opportunity to fight a decisive battle with Dongwu's main force, with the goal of occupying the grain-producing area Ava." The third stage is to occupy the entire Dong Wu. His Highness has no objection to this plan, right? ”

This is the result that the emperor just got after discussing with several parties in the chat group, and King Tang also participated, so he naturally knew it. He knew that he didn't know much about this, and since he had discussed it, it would definitely be okay. At this time, when he heard Min Hongxue mention it again, he hurriedly nodded and responded: "Of course there is no objection!" It's just that, Ge Lao, the things that are lonely and worried about have to be taken seriously! “

When Min Hongxue heard this, he couldn't help laughing, shook his head and said, "Your Highness, this official has already said the solution just now!" ”

When Tang Wang heard this, he was very surprised, thought for a while, suddenly came back to his senses, and couldn't help but say in surprise: "Do you mean to use lightning speed?" ”

"Yes!" Min Hongxue listened, nodded and said, "This official has already stated in the military discussion just now that the Tusi will obey the dispatch within half a month and must not be delayed. This does not mean that we will send troops in half a month! Early tomorrow morning, His Highness's army will be divided into two armies, one army will directly take Mubang, and then attack Mengmi, and the other army will take Mengyang, so that they will be united first. In the follow-up, let the Tusi army assist. ”

Speaking of this, he explained to Tang Wang: "Although these toasts will collude with Dongwu, they are mostly worried that Dongwu will invade their land, and they are not sincerely towards Dongwu. As long as His Highness's army can take these places in time, even if these Tusi have colluded with Dong Wu before, it will not be possible in the future. ”

Tang Wang unconsciously loosened his brows when he heard this, and he was a little overjoyed, he didn't expect that the things he thought about were very difficult, and on the side of Min Ge Lao, there was indeed a way to solve it with understatement. He rubbed his hands vigorously and said in a loud voice: "Yes, yes, it should be so!" ”

When Min Hongxue saw him like this, he reminded again: "Your Highness, this expedition, when you go out on this expedition, you should be a suspicious soldier, so that Dongwu side, I don't know how many people I have gone to Ming." After occupying Mubang and other places, even if the stalemate continues, if King Talong feels that the imperial army is large, he must raise a large army to deal with it. This will help to deplete Donggo's national power and reduce resistance for His Highness's next plan! ”

Hearing another real plan, King Tang was even happier in his heart, and nodded again and again. After discussing for a while, he couldn't help but take his leave and went to the barracks to inspect the grain and grass supplies.

Min Hongxue sent King Tang out of the mansion, looking at his departing back, a little worried.

In the past, the emperor's strategy for Dongwu's side was not like this. But after it is ready, the imperial court will announce the feudal overseas national policy of the vassal king, and then go through the crimes of Dongwu and swear to go on the expedition.

But later, when news came from all sides, it was found that it could not be delayed, so it could only be carried out in advance. And it can't affect the feudal overseas national policy of the vassal king, so it is simply carried out secretly, and when the fight is assured, it is not too late to announce a high-profile statement.

Of course, the Tang King led the army to the battle, which did not mean that the Tang King went to command the war. Many of the generals under him were drawn from various security offices. Several important generals have at least been recognized by Min Hongxue for their ability to lead. Having them, who are familiar with Dong Wu locally, command the battle, at least on a tactical level, without much worry.

As planned, early the next morning, the Tang Wang's army quietly marched out and began to implement the first phase of the operation.

A few days later, in the Hanlong Pass, the Tang King stood at the head of the city, looking down at the five thousand soldiers standing below, and was quite excited. The vassal king led the troops, and the Ming Dynasty was finally realized again in his own hands after so many years!

Eating and waiting for death is not the wish of the descendants of Taizu. A man's husband should be a man who travels all over the world, learns from Taizu, and opens up a national career, which is the true character of a man, and he is worthy of the descendants of Taizu. Tang Wang thought in his heart, he felt that there was a breath of breath in his heart, he really wanted to look up to the sky and roar, I, Zhu Yujian, would definitely live up to this opportunity, and I must knock down Dongwu!

Thinking so, he said loudly: "You were mostly disaster victims and fugitives before, and it was Lone who gave you the opportunity to survive and feed your family. Now, it is time for you to repay your loneliness, and it is time for you to take revenge! ”

The victims and fugitives in Yunnan, especially in the southwest, were mostly caused by the invasion of Dongwu, so the Tang King said this. Hearing him say this, although he already knew that his army was going to fight Dongwu, these soldiers were still very excited. Most of them are people near the border of Yunnan, so they naturally know about Dongwu. In the past, a general of the imperial court led 500 soldiers, and he could defeat tens of thousands of Dongwu troops, but now it is 5,000 troops, which has a great hope of winning!

Thinking like this, some people who knew the details turned their eyes to one of the generals at the front, who was Fu Yuman, the son of Fu Guochun, who defeated tens of thousands of Dongwu troops with only 500 soldiers. I believe that by him, he will definitely win this time.

King Tang watched the movements of the soldiers below at the head of the city, and naturally took advantage of the situation to aim at the middle-aged general. He wanted to defeat Dongwu, so he naturally had an understanding of Dongwu's previous affairs, and when he knew the previous achievements of the imperial court, he immediately wanted to invite the generals who had won Dongwu before to come out of the mountain. Anyway, with the support of the emperor, he has enough glory and wealth in his hands, and I believe that he can invite him out of the mountain.

However, he didn't expect that the Ming generals who had fled in embarrassment were either transferred to the north and died in the battle with Jianyu, or they had already died of old age. Fu Guochun is still there, but he is just an old man with limited mobility. But fortunately, they all have children and grandchildren, and I believe that these children and grandchildren should be able to do it under the guidance of their elders.

After thinking about it for a while, King Tang's mind immediately retracted, and he shouted loudly to the soldiers below: "Lone gives you this opportunity to take revenge, as long as the Dongwu people do not surrender, the men will be killed, the women will belong to you, and the property will also belong to you!" Your wealth is in your own hands, and how you want to live in the future depends on your own performance! ”

Hearing this, the soldiers under the city immediately shouted: "Kill...... Kill...... Kill ......"

Seeing that the morale was available, Tang Wang felt a little complacent in his heart. The war against Donggo must not be defeated. What is the money of those women, as long as they can lay down the hole, there will be in the future!

Thinking so, he looked at the sky, and gave an order, and the army marched and attacked Mubang. And he himself, of course, will not set off with the army, and even if he is willing, Emperor Chongzhen will not be willing. In case the war is lost and the Tang King dies on the battlefield, it will definitely be a blow to the feudal overseas of the vassal king, and Emperor Chongzhen will not allow this situation to occur.

Therefore, the captain of the Jinyi Guard beside King Tang has been closely following King Tang to guard, and at the same time, he can be regarded as controlling King Tang and not letting him do what he shouldn't do.

"Your Highness, your subordinates are also gone!" Beside King Tang, a thin black man bowed down and saluted him with a fist and said.

When Tang Wang heard this, he nodded to him and said: "You are from Mubang, you are most familiar with the terrain of Mubang, and you will do things for Gu with your heart, and Gu will still hand over Mubang to you to govern in the future." ”

The person in front of him is also a member of the chat group, Mubang Ba Deng. He was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly thanked him, and then turned around and prepared to go down the city to follow the army.

"Remember, tell me more news, Gu Hege Elder, and His Majesty are all paying attention." Tang Wang was excited in his heart, and said again.

When Ba Dengding heard this, he had to turn around and make reassurances again before leaving in a hurry.

The king of Tang walked to the outer head of the Hanlong Pass, looked at the army that was winding out, and looked up at the mountains and forests in the distance, and was speechless for a long time.

At this time, Mubang was originally a vast and sparsely populated area, mostly mountainous and forested. After the back and forth war between Dongwu and Mingguo, the people's livelihood in this place withered even more. In many places, there are no human beings, but you can see a few deserted villages. Most of the population is concentrated in a few cities, among which Mubang is the most. It is also for this reason that the headquarters of the generals stationed in Dongwu is in Mubang City.

"My lord, there is a lot of movement on the side of Mingguo, I'm afraid it will try against us, so I have to guard against it!" A middle-aged man dressed as a literati earnestly admonished a bearded man who was holding a beautiful concubine and drinking and having fun.

The bearded man listened, ignored him, and drank the wine from the mouth of the woman in his arms. When the middle-aged man saw it, there was a trace of worry on his brows, so he had to increase his voice and remind him again.

After a sip of wine, the bearded man finally became a little impatient, turned his head to look at the middle-aged man and shouted: "You Han people like to fight in the nest, all day long, either to guard against this, or to calculate that, is there no end?" Ben will ask you to help me, is it so that you can implement His Highness's will and have good results, so that Ben will be able to speak to His Highness, understand? ”

King Talong's new policy had already begun to be implemented at this time, changing the practice of the previous dynasty to be reckless and militaristic. Therefore, the assessment of various places has also changed from martial affairs to civil affairs. This Mubang guard is not good at governance, so he chose a Xiucai from the Han captives to be the master, and he used it easily.

When the middle-aged man heard this, his face was slightly embarrassed, but he immediately disappeared, and instead of worry, he listened to him and continued to persuade him: "My lord, the news from the Ming Kingdom is really a bit worrying. Good manner, what kind of soldiers are you training? The adults may not know, but the villain is very clear, the Ming Kingdom has no money, if it is okay, it will definitely not waste money and food to train the army. Now that he is training troops, and it has been almost more than a year, he has been trained by the former governor of Yungui, and this combat power cannot be underestimated! Besides, around here, except for me Dongwu, the villain can't think of who he will use his troops on? ”

"Hehe, Ming Guo has long been gone!" When the bearded man heard this, he couldn't help but sarcastically say, "Mubang has been occupied by my Dongwu for so long, have you ever let a fart go?" It's just that a messenger was sent at the beginning, and he wanted to go back to Mu Bang if he wanted to use his mouth, but after so many years, could there be other actions? ”
