Chapter 129: The Situation

In the existing time and space, Wang Baobao has no chance to wash away the shame caused by the previous fiascos of Xu Da.

Xu Da and the Sixth Sixth Anniversary of May broke the Yuan army, shook the sky and thundered to turn the tide of the war, capturing tens of thousands of Yuan troops, as well as the number of people who were directly killed.

This battle greatly wiped out the living forces of the Northern Yuan, and the army of Helin was less than 100,000, except for the 200,000 army in Liaodong and the 100,000 army in Yundi, the remnants of the Northern Yuan were somewhat stretched at this time.

As long as Li Wenzhong led the Eastern Route Army to detour the direction of the Middle Route Army and successfully join forces with the Middle Route Army, the nearly 100,000 Northern Expeditionary Army will completely drive the Yuan Army out of Lingbei and further eliminate the living forces of the Northern Yuan.

There is no need to wait for the division, the original battle between the nearly 100,000 army of the Northern Yuan and the 50,000 cavalry of Xu Da can be said to be 50,000 against 100,000, and the advantage is him.

Now, if you wait until the successful rendezvous, it will be 100,000 old and weak people of the Yuan army, and the advantage is mine, and there is no suspense.

Xu Da won the battle and received a great replenishment from the Yuan army, and for the captured Yuan army, they were all killed.

In April of the third year of Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang issued an edict saying, "I said that the general knew that the people who had won the battle, and the leader of Wang Baobao, who had been defeated and surrendered, should leave him alone and kill him." After leaving the small army, they will go to fight Xishu, and then they will leave some to guard Xishu. ”

It can be seen that most of the Mongol soldiers who surrendered and were captured in the war in the north were executed, and a few young ones were sent to remote areas to defend the frontier.

And the Mengyuan soldiers in Jiangnan, except for those who were killed in the war, all of them who did not have time to escape were put into a separate book and became a special group of "degenerates".

In order to punish these Yuan Dynasty soldiers and nobles who had oppressed the Han Chinese, the Ming Dynasty law stipulated: Fallen people were not allowed to study, take exams, marry with commoners, live together with commoners, and could only engage in lowly service industries.

In the household registration at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the fallen people were characterized as beggars, and their status was lower than that of prostitutes, only slightly higher than that of beggars.

Because the fallen people did not have the right to receive education, they were basically illiterate for generations, and could only engage in the lowest professions in society at that time, and were looked down upon everywhere.

This kind of political punishment can be said to be more desperate than being sent to defend the frontier.

From the 200,000 soldiers and civilians captured by Lao Zhu, only nearly 100,000 female groups were treated well, and they spread out in the Central Plains and integrated into the land of China, we can see what happened to those male soldiers.

In addition to his own hatred, Xu Da couldn't deal with these burdens.

The Middle Route Army led by Xu Da continued to advance towards Helin, and Li Wenzhong's smuggling was relatively smooth at this time because Xu Da defeated the Yuan army led by Wang Baobao and Timur and He Zongzhang.

On June 29, Li Wenzhong's army on the East Road attacked Kouwen (now Chagan Nuoernan, Inner Mongolia), and the defenders of the Northern Yuan Dynasty fled when they heard the news, leaving many cattle and horses to be captured by the Ming army.

Li Wenzhong's troops left Han Zheng to guard the baggage, and led the main force to pursue the Yuan army along the Hara Manglai (now Honggol, Mongolia) and the Yuqu River, and fought fiercely with the Yuan general Harazhang in the area of the Tura River and the Aruhun River (that is, the Orkhon River today, located in the northwest of Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia) for many days.

In the end, the Northern Yuan army was defeated and fled, and tens of thousands of Northern Yuan men and horses were captured, but the Eastern Route Army also suffered many casualties.

Li Wenzhong continued to pursue until Chenghai (now south of Haraeus Lake and west of Hara Lake in Mongolia), and the Northern Yuan armies gathered to attack the Eastern Route Army.

Li Wenzhong saw that he could not win, so he decided to withdraw his troops, and retreated all the way with the art of war, so he set up a suspicious formation and retreated, and the Northern Yuan army was afraid that the Ming army would have an ambush and did not dare to pursue, and the two sides disengaged.

Although the Eastern Route Army had a certain advantage, it did not completely defeat the Yuan army it encountered.

Now Li Wenzhong is advancing all the way, and there is no resistance along the way, and the Yuan army is fleeing in despair.

In addition to the will issued by He Lin in the face of Xu Da's threat, and mobilized the army to prepare for a desperate battle, the earth-shaking thunder that appeared in the Ming army also shocked the Yuan army, and they were quite afraid in the face of the unknown.

Where else can you flee to, the Yuan army requisitioned a large army to launch the Battle of Helin, and the barbarian general Harazhang was also transferred to the Helin defense line, and the remnants of Timur and He Zongzhang were ready to fight to the death with Xu Da's middle route army.

I can't take care of other places at this time, and if I don't come, my home is probably gone.

Without encountering any obstacles, they came from the east and came near the Tula River.

And Xu Da's lone army, which went deep into Lingbei, has also returned to the division and advanced towards the original strategic goal and Lin.

In the vast prairie, there is no navigation, and the losses of his subordinates are relatively serious, only more than 40,000 soldiers and horses, Xu Da is also more cautious, relying on binoculars, he can avoid it.

When encountering enemy troops, they tried not to engage the Yuan army, and had no intention of fighting a decisive battle except for encountering a small group of enemy troops to defeat them.

Delay as much time as possible and wait for Li Wenzhong's army on the eastern route, and join it to completely destroy Meng Yuan's living forces.

Meng Yuan's eyes focused on Xu Da's mid-lane army, but Xu Da was slippery and could always avoid it, leaving Meng Yuan helpless.

The doctor on the other side, after three full days of treatment, was hungry and casually ate in his operating room and rested by the way.

I stayed up until midnight at night, if it weren't for the poor existing conditions, and the physical and mental consumption did not allow, all the traumatic surgeries would have been almost done, leaving internal injuries such as broken bones and tendons, and poison.

There are still more than 1,000 wounded people who are internally injured waiting for treatment, and there are hundreds of people who did not survive in the middle, and there are still more than 1,000 people left.

"Withdrawal, what should the remaining wounded people with broken bones and tendons do, and if there is any way to withdraw it, please advise."

Zheng Xiong's idea is even better than these doctors combined, Li Si and the current doctors are waiting for Zheng Xiong to give a good method to learn again, as a technique at the bottom of the box.

After all, now that more and more wounded soldiers have improved through the means given by Zheng Xiong, the effect has appeared, and everyone looks at Zheng Xiong with eager eyes.

Zheng Xiong did spread his hands and said quite boldly.

"No, you really think that this official is the reincarnation of a divine doctor!"

"Whoever has better bones can go up, you have experience in these, and this official has no way."

The doctors showed disappointed expressions, and then prepared for the next orthopedics, Zheng Xiong suddenly opened his mouth to mention.

"The orthopedic officer doesn't understand, but after you complete the orthopedics, you can use plaster, that is, the white tiger and water, to fix it, and these guys are free to play."

"In addition, after it is done, the army in front should have captured a lot of cattle, sheep and horses, you can get some milk and make up for them, which is still very beneficial for future recovery."

"Yes, I don't know if there are other instructions for withdrawals."

Li Si was still a little reluctant and continued to ask.

Zheng Xiong left the back of his head for Li Si, turned around and left.

"Nope."
