Chapter 131: Lin Che's Suggestion for the Northern Expedition: Either Don't Fight, or Change the Commander!

Listened to Lin Che's analysis.

Not only did the Zhu brothers have an epiphany, but even Lan Yu, who was kneeling on the ground, couldn't help but nod frequently.

Although Nell Buhua is not a famous general, he also has a lot of background in the Northern Yuan.

That's all you need, you don't need to do much.

If you win, you will fight, and if you can't win, you will run.

Even if you lose a few times, as long as you don't get wiped out, you still have the capital to turn the tables.

After all, this is in the grassland, on other people's territory.

As Lin Che said, the mentality of the generals on both sides is completely different.

The Northern Yuan side can completely avoid the main force of the Ming Dynasty and escape to the depths of the grassland, and even to the deserted Mobei, which is thousands of miles away.

When the Ming Dynasty withdrew, they were still the masters of the grassland, recuperating and accumulating strength, and fighting again in the future.

In addition to annihilating the opponent's main force, the Ming Dynasty can be regarded as a big victory.

As the commander of the Ming army, once he entered the grassland, in addition to fighting a decisive battle with the main force of the Northern Yuan, he also had to worry about the problem of grain and grass at all times.

The light one lost the fighter, and the heavy one fought a decisive battle with the main force of the Northern Yuan Dynasty and returned home.

No wonder the general Xu Da is worried about the Northern Expedition, as the commander of the Ming Dynasty, this battle is burdened with the Ming Dynasty's national fortunes, and no one can let go of his hands and feet.

That's it.

Zhu Biao sighed with a heavy heart, got up and saluted:

"Thank you, sir, for making an accurate prediction of my Ming Northern Expedition!"

"On behalf of my father, I would like to thank Mr. for his teachings!"

"It's just... Mr. proposed that I have a solution to the dilemma of the Northern Expedition of the Ming Dynasty? ”

"Once Da Ming enters a state of attrition on the grassland with Bei Yuan as Mr. said, it will be extremely unfavorable to Da Ming!"

"In this way, Daming is not only a labor and a loss of money, but also the national strength cannot support it!"

"It's really going to be the situation that Mr. said, the two sides have been facing each other on the grassland for several months, people are sleepy and horses are lacking, and the supply of food and grass is a big problem, and then hundreds of thousands of troops of the Ming Dynasty will fall into extreme panic."

"Thousands of miles of supply lines have also become the best target for Northern Yuan."

"There is still a stalemate time, once the winter begins, the common people also have to prepare for the famine, how much grain and grass do hundreds of thousands of troops have to prepare?"

"In the end, this battle does not need to be fought, and the army is about to collapse!"

According to Lin Che's analysis, Zhu Biao said the hidden dangers of the Northern Expedition of the Ming Dynasty.

In the four seasons of the year, only autumn is the most suitable for a decisive battle with the Northern Yuan, and now it is about to enter autumn, and the main force of the Ming Dynasty is still in Beijing, and there are still thousands of kilometers away from the main battlefield of the Northern Yuan grassland.

Even now, it takes more than a month to set off without stopping.

By that time, it was already late autumn, and it would take at least a month to find the main force of the Northern Yuan Dynasty on the grassland.

It's winter, when the north wind is strong and the snow is heavy.

For the soldiers of the South, the cold was a great test.

It may even be that the main force of the Northern Yuan has not yet been found, and its own losses have reached 23/10.

It greatly affects the state and morale of the soldiers.

Once it is dragged back by the Northern Yuan, the consequences will be extremely serious.

"There is a way, but there is no way..."

Lin Che said an ambiguous sentence, which made the Zhu family brothers scratch their heads.

Zhu Biao pondered for a while, but still didn't understand the meaning of Lin Che's words.

"Mr. Lin!"

"Now is the time to decide the life and death of Daming, Mr. Qiu is still express, right?"

Zhu Fan on the side scratched his ears and cheeks, and roared urgently:

"Is there or no, sir?"

"What a good word for you! Don't embarrass our brother..."

Before he finished speaking, he was stopped by Zhu Biaohe:

"Presumptuous!"

"Second brother, what do you say to Mr.?"

"We just scolded General Lan, we didn't scold you, isn't it uncomfortable? Don't apologize to Mr. Lin yet! ”

When Zhu Fan heard this, he shrunk his neck, feeling that his eldest brother's temper has risen recently!

I talked to Mr. Lin like this in the Imperial Prison, but Mr. Lin didn't say anything, but the eldest brother was not happy.

I had no choice but to apologize:

"I'm sorry!"

Looked at!

Lin Che shook his head and smiled, and sighed:

"You reckless boy, finally someone can take care of you!"

"Well, in the Imperial Prison, we have been giving you lessons for almost a month, and the level has risen a little, and your temper has also risen!"

"Grumpy, more nonsense!"

"It makes sense to know why your father put you in prison for reflection!"

"However, I think the punishment for you is still too light!"

Hearing this, Zhu Fan didn't feel anything? Anyway, it wasn't once or twice that he was mocked by Lin Che.

It's just that the prince Zhu Biao listened to the apologies again and again, like a parent who apologized on behalf of the student who was criticized by the teacher.

"What the gentleman said is very true!"

"Second brother's broken mouth, there is no door!"

"Don't hide it, just because of this, our father and mother are worried to death!"

"I've been worried that this broken mouth will cause trouble!"

"Look, Mr. Jean bothered!"

Lin Che drank the tea, did not embarrass the other party, and directly answered Zhu Biao's question.

"My suggestion is, either don't fight, or change the coach!"

"Attacking cities, fighting large-scale encirclement and annihilation battles, and annihilation wars, General Xu is familiar with it, but the encounters and pursuit battles on the grassland are not suitable for a moderate general like Xu Da, he often loses fighters because he is too cautious."

"And in grassland encounters, they are often crushed at the first touch, and the rest is to pursue and destroy. When needed at this time, a general who lives after death. ”

"Like Huo Quai, when Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was sick, he led eight hundred light horsemen to travel thousands of miles, and smashed the Hun royal court!"

"Such a general is the most suitable for the Northern Expedition!"

Hear that.

Zhu Biao gasped, although he was prepared, he was still shocked by Lin Che's boldness.

The Northern Expedition is a policy that has been set by the Ming Dynasty, and it will not be changed, and my father will not agree to it.

However, the selection of Xu Da as the commander of the Northern Expedition was also deliberate.

Moreover, changing the commander on the spot is also a taboo for soldiers.

Besides, even if Xu Da is replaced, who is the most suitable coach for the Northern Expedition in the entire Ming Dynasty!

It's a tough choice.

If you don't choose well, get a 'Zhao Kuo' who talks on paper, which requires the bones of hundreds of thousands of soldiers to be buried!

Seeing that Zhu Biao's face was full of thoughts, Lin Che smiled indifferently:

"What are you nervous about? Such a big decision-making power is in the hands of the emperor, even your noble father can't be the master. ”

"What's more, hasn't the Northern Expedition still not started, and it's still too late to change the commander."

"If you really wait until the army goes out, you can't change it!"

"Hehe, I'm just saying, if His Majesty the Emperor replaces Xu Da, the commander of the Northern Expedition, it is almost impossible, Xu Da is the commander of almost all major battles in the Ming Dynasty, and no one can match his prestige in the army..."

Speaking of this, Lin Che pointed to Lan Yu who was kneeling beside him and said with a smile:

"Like him, who has been in the army, when I hear us say that General Xu is not suitable to be the commander, he is like a dead father."

"If General Xu is allowed to hand over the military power, then the major generals in the military camp will not have to rebel on the spot!"
