Chapter 87 Spread the word, my Ming army has won a great victory!
Tuoba was a leader who fell outside the block. He surrendered to the Ming Dynasty a few years ago. After all, the tribe in Tuoba was close to the Great Wall. The Ming army would occasionally leave the Great Wall to sweep it. On the contrary, the cavalry on the Northern Yuan side rarely returned to their place.
If Tuoba didn't have the choice, his best plan was naturally to surrender to the Ming Dynasty. Moreover, the Ming Dynasty has become more and more brave in the past few years. The Northern Yuan Dynasty has rushed back to the grassland. Now the destiny is in the Ming Dynasty. It is not embarrassing that his tribal leader surrendered to the Ming Dynasty.
However, in recent times, Tuoba's life has not been easy. It is the vernal equinox, but his tribe cannot shed horses and sheep well. Instead, he was chased and beaten by Naha. The originally plump playground was occupied by Naha. Now he can only take the members of the tribe to hide everywhere and live a life of stagnation.
The tribes on the grassland have always been respected by the strong. If the leaders who follow them are always defeated, the majesty will decline. But if the tribes are unable to eat enough, the problem will be serious.
Although the tribe is not at the point where they can’t eat, if they continue like this, before Naha comes to feed their tribe, their tribe will be starved to death because there is no pasture to feed cattle and sheep.
The only hope is the Ming Dynasty. As long as the Ming Dynasty launches an attack, everything will be fine.
What a bad thing about Naha? Can you compare with the Daming Group?
Even Tuoba dreamed last night that the Mingtian Army had arrived. The Grand Marshal was Zhu Yuanzhang, the Left General was Feng Sheng, the Lieutenant General was Xu Da, the Right General was Li Wenzhong, the Later General was Fu Youde, the vanguard general Lan Yu, and the subsequent deputy generals. In short, except for the 42 generals in Huaixi, all the rest were present.
Good guy, Nahachu hadn't beaten up yet, and just finished listening to the list, he knelt down and surrendered, and presented all the territory to Tuoba with both hands.
Then dreaming.
Back to reality, Tuoba began to look sad again, and even thought about whether he would surrender to Naha, but in this case, if the Ming army came over...
He was hesitating like this when the sound of galloping horses suddenly came from outside, and someone quickly ran towards him, shouting while running:
"Taiji! Taiji! Ming! Ming!"
This sound was the time when I was sent to the Ming Dynasty before. I went there for a month in a row. Tuoba thought it would take a month or two to come back, but he didn't expect to come back so soon.
Tuoba quickly put away his daydreaming thoughts and ran out of the tent. It was indeed the messenger before, and he asked quickly:
"What's wrong with the Ming Dynasty? What did the Han emperor say?"
The envoy looked happy and took out the documents of the nation from his arms. He happily told what His Highness the Liao King said from beginning to end. Tuoba was confused at first, but later he heard that the Ming Dynasty had begun to gather, and there were so many countries to help, so he immediately became confident.
Of course, the most important thing is that His Highness the King of Liao said that he had enough money and enough food to make him feel at ease to fight. He even agreed on the time and place for delivering food. In a month, he would be somewhere by the beach!
Tuoba immediately became energetic. The resentment of being chased and beaten by Naha these days finally had a small outlet for venting.
The envoy said again:
"By the way, Your Highness also said that if Nahacha pursues too much, just send the documents of all nations over. We claim to be envoys of the Ming Dynasty. Nahacha will definitely not dare to do anything to us. Your Highness said that this is called diplomatic remarks. Other tribes do this, so he will definitely be afraid of Nahacha!"
When Tuoba heard this, he immediately applauded and looked at the envoy:
"Then you go there."
"ah?"
...A few days later...
Liaodong, Shenzhou.
Nahachu belonged to the Zalayier clan of Mongolia and was a descendant of Muhuali, one of the four heroes of Genghis Khan.
He was a minister of the Northern Yuan Dynasty and was promoted to the Taiwei. He was once captured by Zhu Yuanzhang and did not surrender to the Ming Dynasty. Instead, he was loyal to the Northern Yuan Dynasty. However, in terms of strength, Nahachu was already a real king who dominated Liaodong.
The 200,000-strong string control group under his command are all military strength that cannot be underestimated wherever they are placed.
Although Naha's record has always been more defeated and less victory, it is like this when competing with the Ming army. The Ming Dynasty led the army to fight, either Xu Da or Chang Yuchun. A general named Feng Sheng was randomly named, and then ran along the way, another named Li Wenzhong and Fu Youde appeared.
What a monster, these are all monsters. It’s not easy for anyone to fight for. Nahachu thinks that even if his grandfather Mu Huali reborn and leads his former Mongolian cavalry and fights these generals on the battlefield, he may not be able to gain the upper hand.
Although I don’t have much chance of winning against the Ming Dynasty, I can’t beat the Ming Dynasty and can’t deal with you small tribes that have joined the Ming Dynasty?
While Wang Baobao and the main force of the Ming army were confronting each other, Nahachu was ordered by Wang Baobao and began to attack those tribes that surrendered to the Ming Dynasty. If he was willing to surrender to our Dayuan, it would be the best, but if he resisted stubbornly, it would be to directly eliminate and annex!
If it were the past, Nahachu would never obey Wang Baobao's orders. However, since the Northern Yuan Dynasty retreated step by step, all the forces that had originally intrigued and intrigued have now been unified under the command of Wang Baobao and the current Emperor Xuanguang of the Northern Yuan Dynasty.
It is precisely because of such an unprecedented unity that Wang Baobao defeated the Ming army a few years ago, and Nahachu naturally participated in that battle. That was one of the few glorious moments when he defeated the Ming army.
Nahachu sat in the mansion while drinking and eating meat. He listened to his subordinates reporting on the battle situation over the past few days, and then robbed several tribes, captured many women, intercepted many cattle and sheep, and was so happy.
While drinking, I suddenly heard someone outside report that it was an envoy from the Ming Dynasty’s foreign country!
Hum? The envoy of the Ming Dynasty’s foreign countries? Who? Have you never heard of it?
Naha thought about it all the time, but he couldn't figure out where did the Ming Dynasty come from in this place in Liaodong?
Not only are there envoys from foreign countries, but also diplomatic documents. When he heard this, Naha wanted to laugh. Good guy, he also diplomatic documents. I, a turtle man in the grassland, need to make diplomatic relations with you? I just have more paper to wipe my butt!
But after the diplomatic documents were handed over, Naha was stunned.
First, I saw the diplomatic documents of the Ryukyu Kingdom, saying that I would gather a large army of 100,000 to fight against the remnants of the Northern Yuan Dynasty!
Naha was stunned and asked to the left and right:
"Where is this Ryukyu?"
Although Nahachu was a nobleman, he had read books, but he seemed to have never read them. He knew words, but he did not understand a lot of common sense.
The ruling class of the Yuan Dynasty should not think that it is full of culture and knowledge. In the middle and late Yuan Dynasty, there were even calls for killing all the Han people and turning all the Jiangnan in the Central Plains into pastures, and there were quite a lot of support.
The people who came out of Naha didn't know where this Ryukyu was, but seeing the intense words in this diplomatic document, it was a bit terrible.
Nahachu took out other diplomatic documents and read them. The meaning was almost the same, they were all intimidating themselves. After counting such documents, they were good guys, there were twenty or thirty!
I have basically never heard of the name of the country. I finally found out that I knew it, which was a document from the Ming Dynasty.
The Ming Dynasty's documents are much more literary and not so straightforward, but they just scold me when I catch myself.
After reading it, Nahachu laughed, and directly tore off the Ming Dynasty's documents, and said to his left and right:
"This Ming Dynasty is just like this. I actually want to use these things to scare me. I just want to send me Naha out for a few words? I won't clean up all the rebel tribes outside the Great Wall. Will I have the face to go back to the court to meet His Majesty?"
Then Naha gave the documents as paper for rubbing, and it was probably possible to rub them for a while, but this was just the beginning.
Two days later, another guy called himself an envoy of the Ming Dynasty and sent a lot of such documents. Nahachu was so angry that he laughed. Where did so many Ming Dynasty countries come from?
He didn't see him either, but in the next few days, these diplomatic documents were bombarded like snowflakes...
Nahachu was also confused when he saw these seals printed. It would be fine if he said that he was bluffing and intimidating himself, but it would be true that he sent these large number of national books over here without money, right?
Did the Ming Dynasty really assemble a large army? Is the 100,000 troops of Ryukyu on the way?
Naha was a little puzzled. He didn't understand what diplomacy was, but so many national letters still made him a little panicked. If he really wanted to call him, where would they come from? Shanhaiguan? Juyongguan?
But no matter what, if the Ming army really sends troops, they may not be able to fight here. Although there are 200,000 troops, if the fight starts, it will be a big question to who will win or lose. The current Ming army is a Han Dynasty and the Five Barbarians!
It seems that the plan to concentrate all its strength to attack those tribes needs to be changed, and Naha has divided some troops to reconnaise and guard against the movements of the Ming army.
However, a few days later, new news came, saying that the tribes who were originally suppressed and beaten, had come from somewhere, and the weapons, equipment and food. The most important thing was that they were brave enough. They turned around and ran away, but now they dared to turn around and fight against the Northern Yuan army!
This was caught off guard, and several people even suffered defeat!
When Naha heard that it was the support of the Ming army, he felt even more panicked. He quickly sent more people to continue to find out the movements of the Ming army. If the Ming army came, he would definitely not be able to fight against the Ming army. The same was true for the military order given by Wang Baobao. He would concentrate on regaining the weak tribes. If the Ming army sent troops, he would retreat.
Anyway, the cattle and sheep can grow when they eat grass, and there is no need for people to take care of them every day. This is different in the Ming Dynasty. They have to farm, especially these soldiers, who are all the pillars of their families. The military farms in the north rely on them to farm, and they have brought out wars outside the border. As long as they delay their time, they will win!
After a while, the power of the Ming Dynasty was naturally weakened.
As for these small defeats, it’s not worth mentioning, so continue to attack!
He had just issued an order to attack, and suddenly someone came over to pass an order, saying that the Ming army was about to go out of seclusion and fight!
The 20,000 army rushed straight to Juyong Pass. It seemed that it was obvious that it was going to go out of the pass to fight!
Naha was shocked, what?! It's only March, and the Ming Dynasty is about to send troops to fight? Are they not farming anymore?
———————
Although Nahachu was a little confused, the small tribes, inspired by dozens of diplomatic documents, started a counterattack like a chicken blood.
But Zhu Qi knew very well that no matter how much chicken blood was consumed, no matter how much chicken soup was consumed by these small tribes, they could not beat it. Their task was to delay time until after the autumn harvest.
After the autumn harvest, the farming work in the Ming Dynasty is over. You can come out and jump around and try it out.
As for whether these small tribes can be delayed until after the autumn harvest, Zhu Qi is not very clear, but he still has to take care of his posture. On the one hand, this posture is for the tribe, and on the other hand, it is for Naha to see it.
As for the attitudes of other subordinate states, considering the current technological level and transportation speed, except for Goryeo and Japan, there are also the scattered Jurchen tribes in the white mountains and black waters. If you can pay attention to Liaodong, the other subordinate states may not even know who Nahachu is.
Diplomatic rhetoric must be continued. We are full of indignation at Naha's actions of beating the children of the tribe. We must protest solemnly, protest every day, and write documents to him.
In addition to protesting, that is what I said before, take it out for exercises.
Li Wenzhong was responsible for this matter and was handled well. Yesterday, he gathered 20,000 guards around him and drove to Juyongguan for military exercises.
To put it bluntly, it was just a training exercise. Even the baggage unit was not brought. It ran over and practiced for a long time before running back. It was that simple.
Two days ago, without delaying the subsequent farm work, the guards and horses of the palace can maintain their combat effectiveness. The most important thing is that the news of the Ming army will definitely reach Naha!
What kind of military exercises does Nahatu know? As long as he gets news about the army movement, he will definitely think he is going to attack him.
Sure enough, the army went out for two days, and less than two days after returning, information came from the front, saying that the army from Naha, who was originally planning to attack with all its might, was retracted and returned to defense at this time.
And began to lay out comprehensive defense near Shenzhou, the old nest of Naha.
Not only that, Naha also went to send letters to the Northern Yuan Yuan court, which was probably the reinforcements requested by Wang Baobao.
Zhu Qi laughed loudly after hearing this. Yes, it’s OK. This time, when Naha found a problem, it was estimated that a month had passed.
After Li Wenzhong came back with the trained soldiers, he was very happy to learn about this. He had nothing to do and had a drink at the mansion, and said to him:
"Your Highness of the Liao King is still powerful. You have the means. Look, I've only been out for two days and did nothing. Naha was so scared that he withdrew his troops!"
Just as Li Wenzhong finished speaking, a message came outside and said: Your Highness is inviting the general to have a celebration banquet.
Li Wenzhong was a little confused. The celebration banquet? The man said:
"Your Highness said that General Li is invincible. This time he went on a war, he rushed to a hundred miles, killed 20,000 enemies, and captured countless people! He wanted to spread it out and spread it out!"
"ah?"
