Chapter 230 Top of the "Traitor List"! Yanshenggong Kong Kejian [Please order]

Inside Huozhou City.

A simple palace is now the Dayuan Palace.

Wang Baobao, the Taishi of Dayuan Fu Kingdom, was summoning his generals to discuss important matters.

"The rebellion of the Western Chagatai Khanate has attacked our city three times and killed several caravans. Now it is time to teach them a lesson!" Wang Baobao said to a group of generals.

When the generals of Walla, headed by Hao Hai, heard this, they were immediately delighted.

The Western Chagatai Khanate believed in the Tianfang religion. Wang Baobao had previously massacred the Tianfang believers in the Eastern Chagatai Khanate, and he had asked the Western Chagatai Khanate to raise troops to attack under the banner of jihad.

However, Wang Baobao's army counterattacked all the way and defeated the invading Western Chagatai Khanate army to pieces.

Later, the Western Chagatai Khanate resisted Wang Baobao's attack, and from then on regarded Wang Baobao's Yuan Dynasty as a life-or-death enemy.

The territory of the Western Chagatai Khanate has rugged mountain roads and most of the terrain is dangerous, making it an excellent location that is easy to defend but difficult to attack.

That's why they invaded Wang Baobao's territory without restraint.

Now Wang Baobao finally made up his mind to attack the Western Chagatai Khanate. His fundamental purpose was to stabilize his rule in the north and south of the Tianshan Mountains.

But no matter what the purpose.

For the Walas, it is enough to allow them to rob without restraint after the war.

Wang Baobao guessed exactly what the Wala people were thinking.

Therefore, this time when they attacked the Western Chagatai Khanate in the Hezhong area, Wang Baobao handed over the command to Hao Hai.

At the same time, Wang Baobao also removed 3,000 elite soldiers from his Yuan Dynasty Guards and gave them to Hao Hai to command and attack the Western Chagatai Khanate together.

After half a month of preparation, the Mongolian and Yuan army organized by Wang Baobao was finally ready to go.

At this time, Wang Baobao suddenly received a very important news.

"What Ming Dynasty general Xu Da raided Chengdu and killed Chen Youliang?"

A shocking news came from the spies inside the pass, and Wang Baobao was immediately stunned.

"Chen Youliang was not killed, but Chen Youliang was driven away. Chen Youliang's son fled to Yunnan with the remaining defeated soldiers. I heard that Chen Youliang still had at least 100,000 troops, but I don't know if Chen Youliang still has any.

Have the guts to counterattack back to Sichuan!"

said Tamerlane, who brought the news.

After Wang Baobao confirmed the accuracy of the news, he felt very complicated.

It can be said that I was surprised and happy.

They were shocked that the Ming army became stronger. Sichuan, which had been known as a natural danger for thousands of years, was completely occupied by Xu Da in just one month.

Wang Baobao asked himself, if he were Xu Da, he probably wouldn't have the courage to take such a dangerous move. After all, if he rushes in with a light force, the whole army will be wiped out if he is not careful.

As for Wang Baobao's joy, if the Ming army mobilized troops to attack Chen Youliang, then the Lanzhou area, which was close to Wang Baobao, would be empty.

The Ming army had previously built a large number of new forts in Lanzhou, and also built a brand-new Jiayuguan Pass, which stood like a nail in the flesh on the eastern border of Wang Baobao.

If we can take advantage of the empty strength of the Ming army at this time, lead the army to attack Jiayuguan and capture Lanzhou, we will not only supplement our national strength, but also limit the Ming army to the east of the Yellow River.

"Go and summon the generals quickly. I have important matters to discuss immediately!" Wang Baobao thought of this and immediately ordered Tuoyin Timur to summon the generals to discuss the matter of marching eastward to Lanzhou.

Tamerlane responded immediately and hurriedly went out to take action.

The Mongolian and Yuan armies were about to attack the Western Chagatai Khanate, and all the generals and leaders were in Huozhou City.

Soon, everyone gathered in Wang Baobao's Taishi Mansion.

After hearing that Wang Baobao planned to lead them to attack Lanzhou, which was empty of troops, everyone unanimously agreed.

Especially Hao Hai and other leaders of the Wala tribes were extremely happy.

After all, compared to the remote Western Chagatai Khanate, Lanzhou is much closer to Huozhou.

Moreover, as the area around Lanzhou becomes more prosperous and wealthy, you can get more and better things.

"Master, just give the order. I, Haohai, am willing to be the vanguard!" Haohai immediately stood up and said.

According to Wang Baobao's judgment, the Ming army originally had only 30,000 to 50,000 troops in Lanzhou.

When Xu Da led the army to attack Sichuan, he had to lead at least 30,000 troops, otherwise he would simply die.

As a result, the Ming army in Lanzhou could have more than 10,000 troops at most.

Moreover, in the previous Xixia and Mongolian eras, the Great Wall in the northwest region was seriously damaged. Although the Ming army repaired many new Great Walls after arriving in Lanzhou.

However, the huge northwest border still has many gaps that can allow large armies to pass.

No matter how Wang Baobao and his generals discussed it, they all felt that attacking Lanzhou would not be a piece of cake, but it should not be too difficult.

"The people of Lanzhou are simple and honest, and there are many Mongolian tribes in the area. Although they are under the control of the Ming army, they will definitely respond in groups as soon as King Yuan's army arrives!"

As a representative of the Han officials in the small court of the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty, Kong Kejian, the Holy Duke of Yan of the Great Yuan Dynasty, said flatteringly.

In the Mongolian and Yuan court of Wang Baobao, there were many Han officials who fled with him from the Central Plains.

These Han officials were all on the list of traitors issued by the Ming Dynasty two years ago.

Among them, Yanshenggong Kong Kejian topped the list of "traitors".

These people had already been ruined in the Central Plains, so naturally they could only follow the wandering court of the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty wholeheartedly.

"Okay, without further ado, we will set off immediately to recover Lanzhou!"

Wang Baobao was very high-spirited and led all the elite men of Meng Yuan to attack Lanzhou.

The Mongolian and Yuan armies acted very quickly this time. They had already announced with great fanfare that they were going to attack the Western Chagatai Khanate.

The spies of the Ming army were not able to obtain this temporarily changed military plan in time.

so.

When Wang Baobao led more than 60,000 Mongolian troops and suddenly arrived at Jiayuguan City, all the Ming army defenders here were shocked.

Except for a small number of infantry, almost all of the 60,000-strong army were composed of cavalry with one man and two horses.

The vast plume of smoke and dust almost covered half of the sky.

There are less than 3,000 Ming army soldiers in Jiayuguan Pass.

The Mongolian and Yuan armies suddenly arrived, causing panic in the city.

But at this time.

The general of the Ming army stationed at Jiayuguan was very calm and calm, and was not at all intimidated by the huge number of enemies.

"Commander Luo, hurry up and send someone to Lanzhou to ask for reinforcements!"

"Yes, the barbarians who came this time are all over the mountains and plains, maybe 100,000 of them!"

"Jiayuguan Pass is located in an important position. Once lost, it will endanger the entire northwest. It will only cause people to send people to ask for help quickly!"

Several Ming army generals were advising a young general on the tower inside the pass.

"It turns out to be Wang Baobao."

This general was none other than Luo Guanzhong, the former commander of the Yingchang Guards in Peiping.

As the Ming army's rule in the Monan Grassland gradually became more stable, many generals and soldiers were transferred to Lanzhou to garrison.

As a general who was personally commended by the British King Zhu Handian, Luo Guanzhong was appointed as the commander of Jiayuguan after arriving at Lanzhou Xingdusi.

Luo Guanzhong had previously faced the superior force of the Mongols on the grassland, and at an extremely small cost, the enemy was defeated and fled.

Now that he has the majestic pass of Jiayuguan in hand, its defensive power is unparalleled in the world. How can he be afraid of Wang Baobao?

"The Mongols are just defeated generals of the Ming Dynasty. There are only 60,000 people and not even a few artillery. How can they break through Jiayuguan?"

Luo Guanzhong's words made all the generals calm down immediately.

Luo Guan knew in the center that when Xu Da went to attack Sichuan, although he did not mobilize many troops, they were basically the real elites of each department. If he asked for help from the rear, he might not be able to get many elite reinforcements.

Therefore, he might as well lead his generals to fight steadily, so as not to drain troops from other places, destroy the original deployment of the Ming army, and give the Mongols an opportunity.

Under the personal leadership of Luo Guanzhong, the Ming army soldiers in Jiayuguan immediately became more confident.

Facing the large number of Mongols, the Ming army did not panic at all. Not only did they guard the city tightly, they even took advantage of the darkness to sneak attack Wang Baobao's military camp.

This performance of the Ming army.

It was really unexpected for Wang Baobao.

He had already arranged his troops and horses to hide on the grassland to the north. Once the Ming army came to reinforce Jiayuguan, these ambushed troops would intercept and ambush the Ming army, thereby disrupting the entire northwest defense line.

but.

The calm performance of the Jiayuguan Mingjun made all Wang Baobao's plans come to nothing.

Without any choice.

Wang Baobao could only order the army to start a strong attack immediately.

However, the caliber and power of the several artillery pieces carried by Wang Baobao's army were too small.
