After listening to the joyful conversation, a little pride suddenly rose in his chest, and he squinted his eyes and thought: If one day, I return to the magnificent palace in Dadu, wouldn't it be a hundred times better than in the bitter cold land of Mobei? He grew up in the Imperial Palace of the Great Capital since he was a child, and naturally had an indelible attachment to the vast capital and the splendid palace in his heart. ”

A moment later, the armor-clad captain Hylanda walked briskly into the Golden Horde, came to Togus Timur and knelt down to see His Majesty the Emperor.

"General Hai, you have personally led the army to Liaodong, in your opinion, if I dispatch an army of more than 100,000 to attack Gyeongju while the Ming Dynasty is on the occasion of the blue jade expedition to my Mobei royal court, this method can be made?" It turned out that the ancestor of Hailanda was also from the golden family of Genghis Khan and Kublai Khan, so although he was only a commander, he had a blood relationship with Togus Timur, and won his trust.

Today, under the instruction of the Taiwei barbarian, Hailanda was ready to deal with Dehuan, so he stood outside the golden tent, listening attentively to the movements inside, and was ready to lead people to kill Tuhuan at any time, so the words of Dehuan in the tent did not fall into his ears word for word. At this time, he heard the emperor's inquiry, and after a little silence, he recalled that when he led the army to Liaodong, Nahachu not only mobilized heavy troops to garrison in Gyeongju, but also captured Gyeongju under the surprise attack of Lanyu in the Ming Dynasty, Nahachu had forced himself to lead his soldiers and fight with Lanyu's defenders under the city wall of Gyeongju, so he nodded heavily and said in a deep voice: "In the eyes of the last general, Gyeongju is the key to controlling Liaodong, and it is not very big, and there are at most 30,000 or 40,000 horses stationed in the city. Speaking of this, he couldn't help but turn his head to look at the person standing not far away, with a smile on his face. He was a knowledgeable general in the Northern Yuan court, and although his hostility to Tuhuan was undiminished, he also greatly agreed with his proposed tactics of attacking and defending and taking the opportunity to occupy Liaodong.

After all, Taiwei Barbarian is a scheming man in a high position, and the passion aroused by the idea of entering the capital has subsided at this time, and after his brain gradually calmed down, he couldn't help but raise his head, looked deeply at the opposite side, and couldn't help but wonder in his heart: I have heard that this kid is treacherous like a fox, but today it is abnormal, and he spares no effort to offer advice to His Majesty, could it be that there is fraud in it?

Tuohuan behaved calmly on his face, but he was secretly funny in his heart, and secretly thought: In fact, the easiest thing in the world to move people is the truth, what I said is true, there is no falsehood, are you afraid that you will see any flaws?

The barbarian looked at him suspiciously, and asked in a deep voice: "It's just that the Ming army has extremely powerful artillery, firecrackers and crossbow arrows, but I'm afraid that even if we dispatch hundreds of thousands of troops, we may not be able to capture Gyeongju in one go." As a lieutenant, he suddenly spoke to Tuohuan in a slightly consultative tone at this time, but not to humbly seek advice, but to make tentative words.

Everyone in the Golden Tent had witnessed the tragic situation of the cannons used by the Yuan soldiers to Xu Da, Chang Yuchun and other Red Turban Army, and when they heard the barbarian ask, their faces changed slightly, and their eyes involuntarily focused on Tuhuan, wanting to hear what he had to say. [East^Fang&Net .com]

Turning to the burning gaze of the barbarian, he secretly thought to himself, it seems that this old ghost is not so easy to be fooled, I can retreat to advance, don't make him suspicious too much, thinking about this, I deliberately frowned, and looked embarrassed, as if it was difficult to deal with the barbarian's question. Although he is young, he is actually an extremely intelligent person, and with Gui Lichi, Arutai is intrigued all day long, and if you talk about the depth of scheming, you are not under the barbarians. Seeing that the old fox was quite suspicious, he deliberately showed a dilemma, and deliberately pretended to be eager and difficult to answer.

Seeing that the prime minister was stumped by the barbarians, he couldn't help but feel bitter in his heart, and secretly complained in his heart: Since you can think of such a strategy to attack and defend and capture Liaodong, how can you forget the powerful firearms of the Ming army? Anxious to be anxious, he also has a little self-knowledge, knowing that if he talks about the battle between the two armies, it is far inferior to the barbarians, and because Timur and others are old and spicy, he can only be silent, sweeping around the barbarians, Dehuan and others with a pair of eyes.

Mahamu, the leader of the Asut tribe, has been silent, his eyes lowered and stared at the gorgeous carpet, and he secretly laughed in his heart: I can guess a few points of this kid's calculations, but the current situation between our three clans and the Yuan Dynasty is complicated, and this kind of thing has to be left to others to do, so as not to provoke the suspicion of the emperor and the old fox of the barbarian for no reason, thinking that I and Tuohuan have some collusion in private.

"Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that we should send a large army to attack Gyeongju, the throat of Liaodong, it is better to judge the situation, depending on the situation, if the Ming army stationed in Gyeongju is not strong and caught off guard, then it might as well storm Gyeongju to occupy Liaodong. If it is difficult for the Ming army to attack for a while, it is better to besiege it in order to contain the Ming Dynasty's blue jade army It is difficult to invade our Mobei royal court in winter. "The one who spoke was the same person as Zhan Shifu, who was now in command of the 90,000 elite army of the Northern Yuan.

The Northern Yuan Emperor Togus Timur saw the ministers in the Golden Tent, and when he heard the cannons of the Ming Army, they were all silent, and he couldn't help but be annoyed in his heart. ”

When the barbarian saw the emperor asking, he nodded and said, "From what the old minister can see, the army we are rushing to attack plus the alliance of the three clans such as Tuhuan also has more than 100,000 people. Even if we storm Gyeongju and Lan Yu mobilizes reinforcements to fight, even if we don't win, we can firmly contain it in Liaodong, making it difficult for us to attack when the cattle and horses of the grassland tribes such as us lack water and grass in winter. There is a reason for his statement, the original grassland nomadic tribe's daily needs of mare's milk, cattle and mutton are completely dependent on livestock, so when the grass and trees are exhausted in winter, not only the war horses can not get enough water and grass, the combat power is greatly reduced, and some of the old and weak animals in the cattle and sheep herd are bound to be slaughtered to save grain and grass, so the cold winter is the weakest time for the nomadic tribes, if you wait until the autumn when the horses are fat, even if the Ming Dynasty sends hundreds of thousands of expeditionary troops, it is just a sheep into the tiger's mouth, so the season and time of the war are the key points.

"Lord Timur is indeed worthy of being the brother of the first general of my Yuan Dynasty, and his remarks are very insightful. [East^Fang&网 .com]"The prime minister lost no time in praising this opponent who was incompatible with himself, but he was secretly proud in his heart, and after glancing at Dehuan, he secretly thought: Whether you are a surprise attack to capture Gyeongju to occupy Liaodong, or to drag Lanyu's Northern Expedition army so that it cannot invade Mobei, it is all out of Dehuan's plan, and I have not won the merit of this recommendation?

Seeing that the prime minister was all in line with the words and sending troops, the civil officials who were silent also made a statement under the leadership of the prefect, asking the emperor to send an army to seize Gyeongju while the Ming army was coming, and even go all the way south to capture the former capital of the Yuan Dynasty and restore the glory of the former Yuan Dynasty.

Togus Timur couldn't help but feel relieved when he saw the ministers talking, smiling and nodding frequently.

After a little hesitation, the barbarian suddenly frowned and said, "Your Majesty, although the second plan is feasible, there is also a difficulty. At present, our army of 200,000 plus the families of Korean Chinese military officials and military sergeants is close to 400,000. The grain and grass are quite stretched, and the old minister estimates that at most 10,000 people and horses will be dispatched to attack Gyeongju. And even so, it costs most of the grain and grass, and the rest of the army and the families of the soldiers in the Mobei royal court consume a lot of grain and grass in a day, so it is impossible to migrate from time to time. Speaking of this, I can't help but look worried.

Hearing this, Togus Timur waved his hand, smiled and said, "Lord Taiwei is too worried. At present, where our royal court is located, it is hundreds of miles away from Daning, and there are many deserts in it, if Lan Yu's army carries a large amount of grain and grass to invade Mobei, the march will be slow, and it may not be able to find us. Moreover, the grassland is vast and flat, and there is a large army attacking within dozens of miles, and it is impossible to escape the eyes of the scouts. Even if they find us, we will lead the army to flee far away, and to avoid it from afar, the Ming army will come to Mobei far away, and it will be difficult to gain a foothold for too long. ”

The barbarian heard that what the emperor said was quite reasonable, so he let go of his mind slightly, turned his head to look at Timur and Harazhang on his side, and said in a deep voice: "Although the old minister is old, he is willing to serve His Majesty, and personally lead the 90,000 troops under the command of Lord Toyin Timur and the allied army of the three tribes such as Tohuan to attack Gyeongju. Speaking of this, I couldn't help but glance at the commander of ten thousand horses not far away, Hailanda, frowned and thought: Lan Yu, among the generals under Zhu Yuanzhang, although his reputation is far inferior to Xu Da, Feng Sheng, Fu Youde and others, but listening to what Hailanda said, during the battle of Liaodong, he actually won more with less, and under the night attack, he defeated the fierce general Pingzhangguo stationed in Gyeongju and wiped out tens of thousands of horses, which shows that he is definitely a fierce opponent that cannot be underestimated. Although Gui Lichi, Tuhuan and others are superficially submissive, how can they actually let their subordinates work hard for the emperor? Only I, with the most elite army of 90,000 under Timur, could restrain them.

Tuhuan's original intention was to induce Togus Timur to send a large army to fight to the death with the elusive blue jade, so as to reduce the pressure of the Northern Yuan on his Oirat tribe, and at this time, seeing that the overall situation had been decided, he immediately bowed down and said: "All the knights of the Oirat tribe are willing to die under the leadership of the villain and follow Lord Taiwei to capture Gyeongju." The mouth was full of words, and I recalled in my mind that when I went to Liaodong with Gui Lichi and Arutai, and when I negotiated with Zhu Quan, the king of Ning and Lan Yu of the Ming Dynasty, I led one hundred and three knights to kill the Ming army under Lan Yu and almost wiped out the tragic situation. In his heart, he sneered slightly and thought: Zhu Quan's tricky and eccentric slippery head, Lan Yu's fierce and tyrannical, how can you think of it? Even if your Taiwei personally goes out, you may not be able to bargain for anything, not to mention that with the temperament of Togus Timur, he will rest assured that you will lead the 90,000 troops with the most powerful combat power under the Northern Yuan Dynasty to Liaodong?

Gui Lichi and Arutai were forced by the situation at the moment, and after glancing at each other, they could only echo and disagree, expressing their willingness to command their own tribes and follow the Taiwei barbarians on an expedition to Liaodong.

Deyin Timur and Harazhang also agreed with the barbarian himself leading the army to attack.

The Northern Yuan Emperor Togus Timur saw the words of the ministers in the Golden Horde, and even the Hailanda who was loyal to him was also fighting bravely, expressing his willingness to go out with the barbarians, and he couldn't help but feel a little unhappy in his heart, frowning and silent.

Seeing that the emperor who was still in high spirits suddenly became silent, the ministers of the Northern Yuan Dynasty couldn't help but look at each other, and the big tent suddenly became silent.

After thinking about it for a while, Tocus Timur said to the barbarian gentleman: "Lord Taiwei is my right-hand man, how can he easily stay away from the royal court and get into danger? The matter of the commander of the army is still considered in the long run. Speaking of this, he stretched out his hand and gently patted his shoulder, frowned and said: "I have been hunting for the past two days, and I am a little tired, and I will decide on the commander of the army after two days." After saying that, the ministers in the golden tent waved their hands lightly and signaled to disperse.

Seeing that the barbarians might not be able to lead the army in person, they couldn't help but feel relieved, bowed down and retreated, and left the tent.

Seeing that the emperor had an ambiguous attitude towards the commander of the army, the barbarian couldn't help but feel anxious, bowed down and said, "Old minister......"

"Lord Taiwei is an indispensable and important person in my royal court, so if you want to personally lead the army to Liaodong, don't you want to be the second Nahachu?" The prime minister didn't wait for the barbarian to finish speaking, so he asked softly without smiling.

As soon as the words of the Lost Martyrs Gate came out, they suddenly made the barbarians, Tayin Timur and others awe-inspiring, and they could no longer speak. Being in the whirlpool of power for a long time has made them deeply understand a truth, no matter who becomes the emperor, they are the most afraid of those powerful ministers who hold military power and stay away from themselves. Especially at such a sensitive moment when Nahachu, who had a heavy army in his hand and had fought against the Northern Yuan Dynasty for many years, led the army and the people to submit to the Ming Dynasty. It's a pity that this matter is getting darker and darker, do you say that you won't support the army and will not rebel, and the emperor will believe it? Therefore, in the face of such a situation, Rao is barbarian and others rolled on the temple for many years, and they had to swallow back the words that had already come to their mouths, and retreated silently.

Three days later, a group of more than 100 Mongolian knights galloped out of the camp of the Northern Yuan army, galloping northward, only to see that although the armor of this group of knights is far less distinct than that of the Northern Yuan knights, the eggs and horses gallop but are at ease, and it seems that the riding skills are extremely exquisite.

Nasutai rode his horse and galloped wildly, turned his head to look at the leading horse body of the Dehuan, sighed secretly in his heart, he followed the deaw for a long time, and already understood that the young master seemed to be gentle, but in fact, he was also extremely arrogant in his temperament, and at this moment he was using the horse to gallop to reduce the grievances he had received in the Northern Yuan royal court in the past few days, and he also clamped the horse's belly between his legs and followed closely.

The blue sky and the green grass were clinging, and after galloping for a while, he slowly reined in and slowed down his horse, and let out a long sigh, as if the depression in his chest that had been pent up for several days had disappeared.

Nasutai rode his horse and came to Lema, looking up at the sky in front of Dehuan.

"I gave the emperor a bloody horse, are you a little reluctant?" Tuhuan suddenly turned his head to look at Nasutai and asked with a smile.

Nasutai was reckless, and seeing that His Highness seemed to be no longer annoyed, he couldn't help but smile and said: "That horse is extremely powerful, I'm afraid that even if I go all over the grassland, I may not be able to find a second one." I'm just sorry for Your Highness. ”

Tuohuan smiled when he heard this, recalling that after hearing the decree of the Northern Yuan Emperor Togus Timur yesterday, his face suddenly couldn't help but show two points of ridicule, and he snorted lightly in his nose and said: "Even if you ride on the sweaty and bloody horse, the coward is still a coward." Saying this, I secretly thought in my heart: My original intention was to let the Northern Yuan send the 90,000 elites left from Wang Baobao to invade Liaodong and fight with Lan Yu, but in the end, it was the waste of Harazhang who led the 80,000 troops under his command to go on the expedition, so the ending was not the best. Anyway, if all these 80,000 troops are buried in the hands of that fierce guy in Lanyu, the Northern Yuan will inevitably be greatly damaged, and it will be difficult to easily act against my Oirat tribe. If Harazhang is too timid to fight Lan Yu, then I will persuade him to support his army and respect himself in Liaodong, which is equivalent to cutting off one of the barbarians' hands. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but be high-spirited, waved the horsewhip in his hand and pointed obliquely at several eagles soaring and circling above the blue sky, and said with a smile: "I can't bear the lamb, how can I hunt the she-wolf?" One day, I will let all the tribes see that my Oirat tribe is the most sharp-toothed eagle flock on the steppe, and willingly sacrifice their lambs. With that, he whipped his whip and galloped away.

Note: The Dehuan of the Oirat tribe and the Arutai of the Asut tribe are not too unfamiliar to friends who are more familiar with the history of the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty. For historical and military themes, I think the description of political opponents is still indispensable, and in order to make the future chapters more exciting, I also consulted some information about the nomadic tribes outside the Seychelles in the historical environment at that time. As an author, I believe that the battle of wits and strength in military history is the same as the game of chess, and as a reader who is a chess viewer, what I want to see is the game between national players, rather than a professional nine-dan bullying amateur players. In that case, I guess many readers will read it and scold: The enemy is all brain-dead? You writers are all brain-dead when we readers? Actually, you're an idiot yourself, haha.
