Chapter 158: The Plans of the Chahar Ministry

Zhu Youxiao shook his head.

In fact, Empress Zhang's suggestion is not very good.

If he really did this, I'm afraid the people of the Donglin Party would also be aware of it.

If this suggestion really doesn't work, Zhu Youxiao will stay in the army first.

What if there is a change in the palace, and the army will defend the palace?

Zhu Youxiao shook his head again, feeling that this plan was not reliable.

But when there are fewer people, they can't hold it, and when there are more people, the muskets and artillery will fight, and it will be noisy.

The queen and Cao Jieyu naturally can't have a baby.

Zhu Youxiao hesitated, but gritted his teeth and said: "In this case, then you can go north with me, and I will order the Ministry of Industry to build you two comfortable carriages." ”

"Actually, you don't need to go north completely, as long as you leave Beizhili, then you can find a state capital to settle down."

"I will leave you with 3,000 soldiers and horses, and I will keep you safe."

Empress Zhang sighed, She knew that this time it was really a drag on Zhu Youxiao, but this was also the best solution.

Three days later.

The Jinyi guards in Liaodong sent back news that Jiannu's army was mobilized to the Chahar Department on a large scale.

At the same time, the Chahar Ministry had long been paying attention to Jiannu's every move, and when they received the news, they also hurriedly sent a letter of help to Zhu Youxiao.

Rescuing the Chahar Ministry was originally a strategy that had already been decided.

Moreover, the army under Zhu Youxiao has long been prepared.

They had been preparing for this war for two years.

The generals of the new army combined all the soldiers into the school field.

Thirty-three thousand troops, looking quite spectacular.

There were 20,000 new troops here, divided into the 1st Division of the Guards Army and the 3rd Division of the Guards Army.

3,000 warrior battalions, 4,000 Absolute Guards, and 3,000 Qin Liangyu's Third Guards Division.

In addition, there is also the 1st Guards Cavalry Division of Cao Bianjiao's uncle and nephew.

Zhu Youxiao looked at the past, and the army was extraordinary.

He stood on a high platform and shouted loudly to the generals and soldiers who were present.

In such a large school field, Zhu Youxiao's voice alone must not be heard everywhere.

But there is no need to worry that there will naturally be Jinyi Guards, who will convey Zhu Youxiao's words to 33,000 people.

Zhu Youxiao didn't say anything, too many high-sounding words.

He just said: "Ladies and gentlemen, Jiannu has become more and more rampant in recent years, and has harassed me many times. ”

"The people of my Ming Dynasty bear high taxes, just to raise more troops to resist the invasion of Jiannu."

"But now our Ming court has failed to harvest grain for many years, if it continues like this, then our Ming Dynasty is in danger."

"So we have to change this situation, I have recruited so many troops in order to expel the Jiannu and solve the external troubles. Keep my sun, moon, mountains and rivers. ”

"Soldiers, Daming is mighty!"

All the soldiers raised their weapons in their hands and shouted, "Da Ming is mighty!" ”

"Da Ming is mighty!"

"Da Ming is mighty!"

The shouts of the soldiers were heard more than a dozen miles away, and people and animals were uneasy when they heard it.

It can be seen that these 33,000 troops have already refined some murderous aura at the beginning.

However, Zhu Youxiao knew that just shouting these slogans was not enough for these 30,000 soldiers.

Zhu Youxiao waved his hand, and the 30,000 soldiers present quickly quieted down.

I saw Zhu Youxiao continue: "Of course, all the soldiers sacrificed their lives to serve the Ming Dynasty, and I will definitely not let the soldiers suffer." ”

"Whoever kills a soldier who builds a slave will be rewarded with ten taels of silver, and if he kills two people, he will be rewarded with thirty taels of silver, and if he kills three people, he will be rewarded with fifty taels, and the official will be promoted by one rank."

"The war dead will receive a pension of one hundred taels, and they will support you and other children until they reach adulthood."

Zhu Youxiao's words can be regarded as the worry of breaking the video door.

As the saying goes, there must be brave men under the heavy reward, and compared with the large number of words that Zhu Youxiao said earlier, these words can obviously make the soldiers more excited.

"Serve Your Majesty, never regret dying!"

"Da Ming is mighty!"

"Long live Your Majesty, long live, long live!"

Zhu Youxiao pulled out the matching sword in his hand and waved it to the north: "Let's go!" ”

The 30,000 troops began to march, carrying a large amount of grain, grass, supplies and equipment, and marched to the north.

The dust kicked up by the soldiers walking on the road floated in mid-air, and they could not see anything from dozens of paces.

The farmers in the fields, as well as the merchants walking on the official road, saw this army, naturally they did not dare to contradict it, and hurriedly gave way to the side of the road.

They were quite shocked when they saw this army with neat steps, armor and crowns, and a majestic style.

Some old people are even more emotional, they have not seen such a mighty Ming official army for many years.

Lin Dan Khan of the Chahar Department also soon received the news that Zhu Youxiao, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, personally led 30,000 troops to support him.

But in his heart, he was still very worried, and called a meeting of all the civil and military generals under his command.

"Now you already know what happened, that Jiannu has sent an army, the Manchurian Eight Banners, the Mengba Eight Banners, and the Han Eight Banners, a total of 55,000 people, and they have been constantly marching towards us."

"Our current cavalry is only 20,000 people, and the emperor of the Ming Dynasty has 33,000 people."

"From the current point of view, we should be on an equal footing with Jiannu."

"But this matter, you should know that the cavalry of my Chahar Department can still be used, but the army of the Ming Dynasty is really not strong in combat."

"After the Ming Dynasty army crossed the Great Wall, as soon as the wind blew on the grassland, the legs should be weak, and the combat effectiveness was even more reduced."

"It was originally a very difficult thing for the army of the Ming Dynasty to defeat Jiannu in a field battle."

"Ben Khan also heard that the emperor killed by the Ming Dynasty did not know whether he was alive or dead, and these troops he brought had not yet experienced the flames of war."

"Then it's a bit unrealistic for us to rely on them to defeat Jiannu."

Lin Dan Khan's first brave general, Batu, stood up, clasped his fists at Lin Dan Khan and said: "Great Khan, this situation is really unfavorable to us now. ”

"But in the past wars, we all took the initiative to attack and pulled with Jiannu's cavalry on the grassland, which caused us to suffer a lot of losses."

"Why don't we try to change our strategy this time, no longer come out with a hard top, just focus on defense, as soon as we see Jiannu menacing, we can even retreat a little bit, so that the Ming Dynasty's army is in front."

When the other generals heard these words, they all whispered.

Although they didn't quite agree with Batu's suggestion, Lin Dan Khan nodded.

He guessed what Batu meant, and even looked at Batu with some emotion.

This fight is very brave, and it seems to be reckless, but the brain is really not bad.
