Chapter 2784 Postscript (1)

On June 16, the first year of Daguan, the Dahua Dynasty cabinet passed a resolution to fight Mongolia.

Cao Wenzhao serves as the commander-in-chief and is divided into three fronts: east, middle and west. Liu Dongyang serves as the commander-in-chief of the west front, He Renlong serves as the commander-in-chief of the middle line, and Mao Wenlong serves as the commander-in-chief of the east front.

The Western Front Cluster mobilized 90,000 border troops from Ganning, Yulin, and Shanxi towns, exited the border wall from Laoyingbao, and marched along the east bank of the Yellow River toward the Chahar people-controlled area.

The center line cluster mobilized 120,000 troops from Datong, Xuanfu, Denglai, and Jingying, exited the side wall from Dushi Fort, and attacked Lindan Batur's main camp.

At the same time, the Eastern Front Cluster mobilized 100,000 troops from Ji Town, Liaodong, and Dongjiang Towns, exited the border wall from Gaotaibao, and headed west along the Liuzhou River. It also summoned the Haixi Jurchen tribes and the Horqin tribe to send troops together.

grassland.

This war is nominally a retaliatory action against the Chahar people in the Gyeonggi region in recent years, especially the counterattack against the capital city last time. It does not involve Inner Khalkha, Outer Khalkha and Turkey.

Mert people.

Prior to this, the imperial court also sent envoys to communicate specifically with Tumut's Bu Shitu and Su Nang, as well as with the Inner Khalkha's Zasai. Tumut's attitude was ambiguous, but the Inner Khalkha people had a clear attitude.

They objected, believing that this was an internal affair of the Mongols. Although the Inner Khalkha people also intended to conquer the Chahar people, this did not mean that the Central Plains dynasty could also use troops against the Chahar people.

However, although the communication with Zaisai failed to achieve results, the three armies were still making preparations in an orderly manner.

From August 19th to 25th, three armies began to enter the grassland one after another and began the battle against Chahar.

In Fengtian Hall, the sky was already dark, and the cold wind howled outside the door, causing the shadows of the candles in the hall to sway, but Feng Ziying's eyes were still fixed on the large map hanging in the hall.

The progress of the three armies is not slow. Cao Wenzhao is in the middle of the command. According to Feng Ziying's request, he does not seek speed, but stability, and must solve the Chahar people in one fell swoop. As for the Inner Khalkha people, they can temporarily

Ignore it.

If the Inner Khalkha people really dare to intervene, then Dahua will not tolerate it. It can appropriately adjust the focus of the attack and decide the priority targets according to the actual situation.

However, judging from the current intelligence, the internal opinions of the Inner Khalkha people also differed because of the sudden use of troops by the imperial court against the Chahar people.

Previously, the Inner Khalkha people were preoccupied with using troops against the Chahar people. The two sides were at war with each other and almost went into full-scale war. However, the Han court suddenly intervened and even said that they would help the Inner Khalkha people.

Teach the Chahar people a lesson.

Even though Zaisai repeatedly expressed his opposition and did not need the court's intervention, the court was still "stubborn" and insisted on using troops against the Chahar people, and even involved the Hercynian Jurchens and Horqin people.

This suddenly put the people of Inner Khalkha in a dilemma.

If we use troops against the Chahar people at this time, it will undoubtedly be to help the imperial court eliminate the threat on the grassland. However, if we sit back and watch, with the size of the army mobilized by the imperial court, the Chahar people will definitely be unable to withstand it, and they will eventually either be destroyed or destroyed.

Surrendering, neither outcome is what Zaisai wants to see.

Zaisai wanted to get rid of the Chahar people, but he wanted the Chahar people to succumb to his knees and make the Chahar people his wings, rather than to make the Chahar people completely lose their combat effectiveness or even become vassals of the imperial court.

.

But now that the situation has evolved like this, Zaisai is left in the dark. No matter what he does, it feels bad. He can't suddenly change his attitude and support the Chahar people in confronting the imperial court, right?

Hearing footsteps approaching from the side, Feng Ziying did not raise her head: "Shi Gong, what do you think Zai Sai will choose now? Should he directly send troops to confront Mao Wenlong?"

"Probably not. If that happens, he will completely break up with us. All he needs to do is completely cut off his material supply. He won't be able to survive for long before there will be civil strife. One of the biggest problems of the Mongolian tribes is that the authority among them is too low.

The control over the tribes under him is very limited, and it all depends on the prestige of the leader. Zasai does better, and the five tribes in Inner Khalkha have high prestige, but this is all based on the situation that it can bring benefits to other tribes.

, once this one is lost and the input of iron, salt, cloth, and tea is cut off, I would like to see how long the other four can follow him."

You Shigong's temperament was more suitable for being a privy envoy, so Feng Ziying finally chose him to sit in the capital.

Cao Wenzhao was more energetic and more decisive in killing, so he was asked to lead the troops to fight the Chahar people. The grassland was vast and needed a strong general who dared to make decisions.

"Then he will watch the Chahar people being annihilated by us and surrender?" Feng Ziying shook her head.

"That won't happen. If I were Zaisai, I would accumulate strength and at the same time urge the Outer Khalkha people to send troops to reinforce the Chahar people, and even persuade the Tumut people to take action." You Shigong judged: "But the Tumut people

There are some difficulties on the side of the Mote people. The conflict between Shitu and Su Nang is too deep and they are constraining each other. No one dares to act rashly, so only the Outer Khalkha people will take action."

"Shi Gong, Mao Wenlong wrote a letter saying that he hoped that Operation Zaisai could deal with the Inner Khalkhas by the way. He said that Zu Dashou recommended Chu Ying, and that Daishan and Huang Taiji could lead troops to fight against the Inner Khalkhas." Feng Ziying

He pondered and said: "What do you think? Chu Ying, Dai Shan and Huang Taiji are all the sons of Nurhaci. Nurhaci has not been dead for a few years, but these few are already a little restless now..."

You Shigong laughed loudly, "The emperor is overly concerned. The Jianzhou Jurchens no longer exist, and the Haixi Jurchens are actually slowly integrating into them. The number of Han people in Liaodong has exceeded 700,000 due to continuous migration in recent years.

What the hell, Jianzhou is less than 10,000 people, and it is invincible. They are all targets in front of firecrackers. I have met Chu Ying, Daishan and the others. Maybe they still have some ambitions, but they have long lost their previous thoughts.

Now they are even more eager to make military exploits in the war against the Mongols and earn a favor for their own descendants..."

Feng Ziying asked back: "Shi Gong, do you think they are trustworthy?"

"Haha, Your Majesty, you think too highly of them. Under such circumstances, who can still make trouble now? Didn't the previous dynasty also use many surrendered Mongolian generals, Qi Bingzhong, Ma Jinbao, etc.

?Don’t you also say that our Hua Dynasty is open to all rivers, and as long as you are willing to serve the court, it doesn’t matter where you are from?”

You Shigong was in high spirits, wondering why the emperor, who had always been graceful and open-minded, was so concerned about these people?

The Jianzhou Jurchens have long been defeated. These few are just capable of fighting, so they can be used to defeat the Mongols and make them atone for their sins.

Feng Ziying laughed dumbly.

He also felt that he was too sensitive, perhaps because his memory in his previous life was too deep, but in this life, without that environment, even if Genghis Khan was reborn, it would be impossible to reverse the trend.

"Your Majesty, there is no need to worry. No matter how hard Zaisai tries, he can't change the situation. Mao Wenlong is very vicious. On the surface, he sent troops out of the Eastern Mongolian grasslands, but in fact, he prepared a reserve force of 70,000 people behind his back.

Led by Chen Jisheng, once there is any change in Zaisai, Mao Chenglu and Chen Jisheng will attack from east to west and deal with Zaisai first. The minister has also ordered Jiangbei Town to board the ship from Songjiang and transport Niuzhuang by sea..."

You Shigong bowed his head slightly, "So Your Majesty, there is no need for you to work so hard in Fengtian Palace. You should go back to the palace to rest early. I saw that the father-in-law has come to the palace gate several times."

Feng Ziying was startled, a little embarrassed, but sighed in her heart, didn't she know?

But where are you going this time?

Changchun Palace, Jingren Palace, or Yongshou Palace? It’s difficult to go anywhere.
