208 The monarch and the ministers finally counterattacked, and the prince's birthday was held

Zhu Qiyu didn't sell it, and directly confessed to everyone: "What I want to use is the subordinates of the Arazhiyuan." This person is too confident, and under the protection of Xuanzong and Emperor Taishang over the years, he has lived too smoothly.

So he made a fatal mistake and selected the elite of the subordinates of Arazhiyuan and others to be included in his headquarters.

A total of 3,000 of the subordinates of the Arazhiin were also selected first, and 500 of them were the dead soldiers who were loyal to the Arazhiin.

Although we have deliberately used our artillery to consume a lot of these people. But because it can't be done too obviously, and the three thousand people will not be exhausted for a while and a half. The 500 dead soldiers who were the most elite in Ara, basically suffered no losses. Tomorrow night's night attack, they are our internal response. ”

After hearing this, everyone present became even more excited, but they didn't expect that the emperor was silent all day long, and it turned out that he still had such a trick.

Since ancient times, the most powerful enemies have often been breached from within.

Although Zhu Qiyu doesn't go to the battlefield much, he has been silently dividing the top elites of Mengyuan behind his back.

The reason for the success is that the Meng Yuan magnates themselves are not aligned.

When the Northern Yuan Dynasty still ruled the Central Plains, the Mongolian elite fought among the upper echelons of the elite. Later, Taizu drove out the Tartars and recovered the Central Plains, and Dayuan was driven back to the grassland, and then infighting, and gradually split into Eastern and Western Mongolia.

There was no problem with the strategies of the Taizu and Taizong dynasties, but when it came to the Hongxi, Xuande, and Orthodox dynasties, these three great emperors followed the demons and turned the strategy of the Ming Dynasty against Mengyuan at a hundred and eighty degrees.

began to wholeheartedly support the three generations of Mahamu, Dehuan, and Yexian to unify Mongolia.

In particular, the good saint grandson of Taizong completely abolished Taizong's strategy as a whole. I don't know if Emperor Taizong Quanxia knows whether he regrets not passing the throne to King Han.

In the third year of orthodoxy, the Ming Dynasty actually launched a huge battle of Yijinai, and completely eliminated Atai Khan for Yiyexian.

Since then, he has completely become the overlord of the grassland, and after another ten years, there has been a change in the civil fort.

When he was orthodox for three years, Yingzong was thirteen years old, and Sanyang was an assistant to the government. It is difficult to say whether it was Yingzong's decision or Sanyang's decision to launch the battle of Yijinai.

Anyway, whether it is Yingzong or Sanyang, there is always one of them who is short-sighted to the extreme.

To deal with Meng Yuan, you can only constantly guide it to split and fight, how can you make it unified?

Thinking of this, Zhu Qiyu asked Fan Guang: "With Neiying, how many enemies are you going to kill?" ”

When Fan Guang heard this, he immediately replied: "Twenty thousand people, at least ten thousand thousands." ”

Zhu Qiyu said with a smile: "You are too optimistic, according to the information I have obtained, I also sent 12,000 elite soldiers to set up an ambush on his retreat route, waiting for a surprise attack on the Ming army pursuing him."

Now there are only about 36,000 people left in the camp of Yexian, how can you kill 20,000 people? If I can kill two percent, I think I can burn high incense.

My initial goal was to kill 40,000 people from start to finish. Let me come with an army of 80,000 first, and go back with an army of 40,000, I think it's okay.

You have to kill 20,000 people in one night, is it too much, I really haven't thought about it. ”

At this time, He Yi stood up and persuaded: "Your Majesty, in the battle of Harrier Ridge, after Cheng Guogong took 50,000 elite cavalry to break off the civil engineering army of the Emperor Taishang, he was ambushed by the 20,000 cavalry of Yexian, and it took less than a day, only about three hours, and the 50,000 army was all gone.

According to this killing speed, we also launched a sneak attack, killing 20,000 people in one night, Weichen felt that it was not too much, even if he avenged the innocent soldiers who died in Harrier Ridge.

His Majesty's descendant army is close to 40,000 people, which is roughly the same as the number of Yexian, and once the attack on the camp is successful, the remaining 100,000 Ming troops will definitely go out of the camp to grab the merit, and when the time comes, 200,000 people will besiege more than 30,000 people, which is almost the same as Han Xin's ambush on all sides, and it is good luck that the first army can run half of it. ”

Zhu Qiyu nodded, and smiled at Huang Pu again: "Tomorrow is the second day of November and the crown prince's birthday." Chengji, you will go to the Warat camp early tomorrow morning and pass on my edict, saying that I will convene all civil and military officials of the fifth rank and above in Beijing in the Fengtian Temple tomorrow to hold a grand congratulatory ceremony.

First of all, the prince who I personally decreed to be canonized also had to come to the court. You told him that even though he was confident and bold enough to bring the generals of Warat to participate, he would treat him with courtesy and no difficulty. ”

Huang Pu smiled: "It's not stupid first, how can he be willing to come?" ”

Zhu Qiyu waved his hand: "It's not important, let him be." I didn't really plan to let him come, but I just told him the news of the prince's birthday tomorrow and the grand pilgrimage of the hundred officials, so that he thought that we would not launch a general attack tomorrow anyway.

Today we will bombard the Varat camp with artillery for a day and a night, and tomorrow we will bombard the camp with artillery for a whole day.

By tomorrow's supper, the shelling will cease, and I will begin to feast my ministers in the Fengtian Temple. At this time, the Warat army, which had been tossed for several days, should be slack off if nothing else, and no longer have the slightest will to fight, and only hope to sleep comfortably and peacefully for one night.

When they are sleeping happily, let's treat them in the way of others, and give them a copy of the change of the civil fort. ”

After that, Zhu Qiyu added: "In order to prevent some people in our Ming Dynasty from eating inside and crawling outside, starting tomorrow morning, I will gather all the civil and military officials in Beijing who are above the fifth rank in the Forbidden City, and they will not be allowed to enter or leave."

Halfway through the night banquet tomorrow night, after it is confirmed that the camp will be bombed by the army, I will announce the news of the night attack, and then take my ministers to keep watch in the Fengtian Temple all night.

My life and afterlife are all on you. If we win, our monarchs and ministers will create a great cause for thousands of years and live together for a hundred years. From then on, the wife and the son will be glorious and rich, and the enjoyment will be inexhaustible, and the use will not be exhausted.

If you lose, I will bear all the consequences, don't have any worries, give me peace of mind to fight. ”

Hearing this, the crowd was excited to the peak, and as long as they were defeated tomorrow night, everyone present, the military generals, the marquis, and the ministers would all be settled.

These people who followed Xinjun at the beginning basically determined that sooner or later they would reach the top of the civil and military generals.

He Yi reacted quickly, and everyone was still happy, He Yi was already kneeling on the ground, shouting Long live the Holy Son of Heaven. The rest of the people reacted and hurriedly knelt on the ground and shouted.

Zhu Qiyu was useful in his heart, but his face was still relatively reserved, raised his hand to signal everyone to get up, and then said with a smile: "The general direction has been decided, let's discuss the details next."

Then today, tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow, in these three days, our monarchs and ministers have received tasks and have done their own things. You go outside the city to kill the enemy, and I will control the situation in the city and pacify the hundred officials. ”

So the monarch and the ministers discussed the details for more than an hour, and then they dispersed.

Zhu Qiyu's biggest advantage is that he will not engage in the affairs of laymen directing insiders. In the end, Xu Heng was appointed by Zhu Qiyu as the main general, in charge of his army of nearly 40,000 descendants. For the next three days, he can take full command and act cheaply.

After the secret discussion, Xu Heng and the others all went out of the city, while Zhu Qiyu returned to the front hall and continued to arrange tomorrow's affairs.
