472 Xiang Zhuang Sword Dance (2 in 1)

At the moment of the imperial power struggle such as the Ming Dynasty, there was also bloody storm in the distant northern Mongolia. The leader of the Ola first convened an alliance of Mongolia and officially announced to all Mongolia that he inherited the position of Khan, denying the legal tradition that the Golden Family had inherited for hundreds of years.

Although Tutuobuhua Puppet Khan was born in a Khan, his ability was very moderate and he bowed to the Ming Dynasty, which made many Mongolian tribes look like a shame. However, Genghis Khan once brought supreme glory to the Mongols, and it became a consensus on the inheritance of the Khan tradition to the grassland.

No matter how Yesen explained, he did not commit crimes against the monarch. Tuotuobuhua died at the hands of his younger brother Agabarji. But this statement can fool the three-year-old child, and he also said that Khan's intentions and Sima Zhao's intentions are well known to everyone. How could it be convinced by the nobles of the Mongolian tribes?

It is clear that you, an old boy, are a ruthless man, and you have the experience of Tuotuobuhua dying when you attempt to usurp the throne. How could you say that you were revenge for the Khan and then raised an army to attack the Tatar tribe?

More importantly, the Ming Dynasty sent an edict, announcing that the Crown Prince Mengke was about to return to the Tatar tribe to inherit the Khan throne. The Golden Family's bloodline has not yet been extinct. Where can you get the right to take on the Great Yuan Tiansheng Khan, which is worthy of it?

Of course, no matter how dissatisfied, his neck was not as hard as a steel knife. After killing several "rude" Mongolian nobles in public, the remaining leaders of various tribes immediately understood a famous saying in later generations - "Politics come from the barrel of a gun."

Therefore, under the oppression of power, the Mongolian nobles and Yesen worshiped the heavenly beings of the Heavenly Saint of Mongolia and announced the ascension of the new generation of the Mongolian Heavenly Saint Khan. It also means that the inheritance of the orthodox Dayuan and even the Mongolian kings was "departed".

Even though he still holds the name of the Great Yuan, even the legal system of the Northern Yuan has been lost. There is no inheritance of the "Da Zai Qianyuan" on the vast grassland, only the Mongolian Khan is left.

Originally, he ascended the Khan throne first, because of the two points of military force and hard fists, which aroused the dissatisfaction of most Mongolian nobles. The reputation he achieved in the Battle of Tumu Fort collapsed, and he faced the same situation as the Khan was wiped out after Tutuobuhua bowed down and was wiped out.

In theory, there are hidden dangers, according to Yesen's previous talent strategy, he should have a keen sense of it and find a way to eliminate it. As a result, he was confused by the Khan position or his ambitions were expanded by power, but after calling him Khan, he made a fool of himself.

Long before attacking the Tatar tribe, Yesen reached an agreement with the Ala Zhiyuan, saying that Khan would then grant the position of Grand Tutor to the other party as a reward for loyalty and years of life and death.

However, the rise of the Ola family was long before Yesen's father Tuohuan was relied on the authority and honor brought by the Mongolian Grand Tutor. No one knew better than Yesen. The importance and potential of this position, even if Ala Zhiyuan had always been loyal to his side, he was not at ease to hand over the position of Grand Tutor.

So he first betrayed his oath and gave the title of Grand Tutor who should have been granted to the Ala Zhiyuan to his son. After all, at a critical moment, his bloodline is more reliable.

But the Grand Tutor also first committed the same taboo as Emperor Jingtai Zhu Qiyu, which was to bypass the eldest son Boronahal and first appointed the second son Ashi Timur as the Mongolian Grand Tutor.

Emperor Jingtai Zhu Qiyu suppressed the old honor and Li You's slutty operation. If it weren't for the historical change that he met Chen Yichen, the Supreme Emperor Zhu Qizhen's transformation of the Sect might have been successful. Now Yesen, who is respected as Khan, did not have a Chen Yichen around him to help him change history.

The result of this operation was that the Ala Zhiyuan held a grudge, and the eldest son Boronahal and his tribe were seriously dissatisfied. In addition, the Khan caused the nobles of the Mongolian tribes to be disobedient, which was completely gone and ended up being "betrayed by everyone".

When the force is strong, everyone dares to be angry but dare not speak out, as if it is safe and sound. As long as there is some turmoil within Yesen or Oirat, the entire stable situation will fall apart in an instant.

This is why the Oirats were extremely powerful in history. After the troops arrived at the capital of the Ming Dynasty, they seemed to disappear within a few years. When the Mongolian army attacked the capital, Altan Khan was a hundred years later.

The reason is that they also made frequent moves in the later stages, which is completely different from the previous image of wise and magical martial arts, and they have killed themselves.

Of course, even so, the Mongolian army is still a sharp sword hanging above the head of the Ming Dynasty. Every year, it invades and plunders to the nine sides, resulting in countless casualties between the military and civilians. It is like cutting an inhealthy hole on the body of a giant dragon. The Ming Dynasty also lost blood and declined in the confrontation. In the end, the two world enemies were destroyed by the Jurchens.

After completing the integration that Mongolian tribes had always dreamed of, he immediately turned his attention to the hinterland behind Xuanda's defense line. You should know that the Battle of Tumu Fort last year led to almost all of Xuanda's beacon fortresses being destroyed by hundreds of kilometers of Xuanda's beacon fortresses. It can be said that they would enter a no-man's land if they wanted to invade the border.

Later, the siege of the capital was lifted. In November, Emperor Jingtai Zhu Qiyu ordered that Guangning Bo Liu An be responsible for repairing the passes along the border. Finally, some holes in key terrain were blocked, and the Xuanda defense line restored the basic role of early warning.

At the same time, this order to repair the pass was considered to open up the history of the large-scale development of the Great Wall of Ming that had been nearly a hundred years. It was not until the Jiajing period that it was completely formed and had a complete concept of the nine sides.

In addition, in a sense, the large-scale development of the Ming Great Wall meant that the entire strategic policy of the Ming Dynasty changed from offense to defense, and he could no longer carry out large-scale conquests on the grassland.

The Xuanda defense line that has been repaired is still fragile, so I took advantage of this period of time to dispatch troops and generals to invade the border. On the one hand, the difficulty can be reduced to more depth in the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty and plunder more and more precious materials and population.

On the other hand, Ye Xian also knew in his heart that he would abolish the bloodline of the Golden Family and become a new khan, and would inevitably suffer a lot of dissatisfaction and grudges. If he wanted to gain wider support, he would benefit the Mongolian tribes and consciousness to eat with him.

Where does meat come from?

Of course, it was squeezed from the group of two-legged sheep in the Ming Dynasty. While the Xuanda defense line had not been repaired, it would not be taken at this time, so when would it be?

Almost a few days after the end of the Punishment, Ningxia, Shanxi, Beizhili, and Liaodong, military information about the Tartars invading the borders was heard everywhere.

Among them, Mongolian soldiers and horses, mainly cavalry, had a great maneuver advantage and could not speculate on their main attack direction at all. The border troops defended in the Ming Dynasty were extremely passive.

This is why Chen Yichen always insisted on taking the initiative to attack the Northern Expedition, because the Ming Dynasty's long border defense could not be defended. Even if the Great Wall that lasted thousands of miles was built, it would still treat the symptoms but not the root cause, and at most it would speed up the warning time.

Attack is the best defense. Only by burning the battlefield on the grassland can we ensure that the people in the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty will recuperate once and for all, and enjoy the peaceful and prosperous era brought by the unified dynasty!

May of the first year of Jingtai seemed to be colder than in previous years. During the period when the Slaying of the Gate ended, although Emperor Jingtai promised not to hold any official and soldier accountable, it was enough to listen to the emperor's promise. Whoever believes it will be far from death.

Not to mention this kind of promise to move your mouth, even if you issue an imperial coupon, it would be a piece of scrap metal when it is really dead?

However, Zhu Qiyu was not a tyrant king who was purging himself. The officials and ministers who participated in the Sect's Rebellion were demoted or demoted to common people, and did not cause a bloody storm in the capital.

Even the "stubborn elements" of the Supreme Emperor Zhu Qizhen's party, such as Anyuan Hou Liupu, Ningyang Hou Chen Mao, etc., were only sentenced to a short prison sentence. After all, the subordinates showed mercy and did not kill them like the previous coups in the Ming Dynasty.

But all the civil and military officials in the court knew that one of them had already been destined, and he was waiting for the verdict of Emperor Jingtai Zhu Qiyu.

Before dawn, there were endless carriages participating in the 15th day of the month of Wangshuo, and often major changes in the dynasty meant that there would be great success in the future. Many officials wanted to take this opportunity to show more in front of the emperor, and maybe they could quickly advance and soar into the sky.

The carriage of the Duke of Chengguo's mansion was driving on the official road of the capital. When the officials they met saw it, they all avoided it. The power and status that had once been popular once again appeared on Zhu Yong.

However, this time, not only Duke Cheng Guoyu Zhu Yong was sitting in the carriage, but also Chen Yichen.

Chen Yichen has been in the same carriage with Zhu Yong, Duke Cheng Guo, to court for a long time. On the one hand, he and Zhu Yong will never be able to achieve the kind of intimacy between ordinary father and son. On the other hand, for more than half a year after he won the title, Zhu Yong, a commoner, did not need to attend court.

The scene inside the carriage was as silent as ever, but soon Cheng Guogong Zhu Yong covered the corner of his mouth and coughed, breaking the silence.

"Mr., the situation in the court has stabilized now. You should cultivate well in the mansion. There is no need to participate in the morning court."

Chen Yichen couldn't help but exhort, which was different from the outside world's eyes that Zhu Yong, Duke Cheng, used his help to protect the enemy, and the old horse was determined to be thousands of miles away. He knew very well that although the other party had gone out of a sick and decadent state on the surface, he showed the toughness and majesty of the Duke of the Ming Dynasty, his physical condition was far inferior to that of the time.

There is still a hint of chill in the early morning of May. Now many officials in the capital are looking for various excuses to absent from the morning court. With the age and health of Duke Cheng Guo, there is no need to insist on entering the palace to attend court.

"It's okay, I'm not old enough to be bedridden!"

Duke Cheng Guoguo Zhu Yong held back his cough and pretended to be careless. As a veteran who had been in the military for half his life, he didn't want his son to underestimate him. This may be the last pride that Zhu Yong always maintained.

"In recent days, the imperial court has received urgent reports from the border, and the Tartars soldiers and horses have robbed the border everywhere, resulting in heavy casualties between the military and civilians, and the property lost by the people is immeasurable."

"Yi'er, led the troops of the Beijing camp, has gone to Juyong Pass again to intimidate the three guards of Wuliangha. In addition, Changping Marquis Yang Hong also returned to Xuanfu from the capital to take charge, preventing the Tartars from breaking through the pass and reappearing the encirclement of the capital last year."

"If nothing unexpected happens, your Majesty will officially order you to Liaodong to conquer the three guards of Urianha at the same time, and involve the Tartar troops from the flanks to reduce the pressure on Xuanda defense line."

The reason why Duke Cheng Guo Zhu Yong rode a carriage with Chen Yichen was to discuss the current situation in the border areas. After all, he had fought with the Mongolian tribes for decades, and no one in the court had more experience than his civil and military affairs.

Chen Yichen is about to be the governor of Liaodong. Zhu Yong hopes to use his experience to help him. Perhaps this is the only thing he can do for his son and fulfill his responsibilities as a father.

"The Xuanfu Mansion has Huichang's No. Yang Hong went to take charge, and Datong has Dingxiang's No. Guo Deng, and it is almost impossible to break the barrier first. The younger generation speculated that his large-scale invasion of the border was to divert conflicts and reduce the internal pressure brought by the ascension to the Khan. At the same time, he used the plundered property to win over some of the old Mongolian nobles and gain their support."

Chen Yichen expressed his guess. In fact, even if the Ming Dynasty did not have a defense line like the Great Wall in the early and mid-stage Ming Dynasty, it would not have much disadvantage against the Mongolian Iron Cavalry. Yanghe, Yaoerling, and Tumu Fort suffered several defeats, and the problem was not because of combat effectiveness, but because of the chaos in internal command.

Yang Hong and Guo Deng dare not say anything about peerless generals, but their ability and command are absolutely at the upper level. Even at the most critical moment after the defeat of Tumu Fort, the Mongolian cavalry he led first did not conquer Datong. The two important towns of Xuanfu are even more unlikely now.

Chen Yichen has absolute confidence in this!

"Did you think that the first thing you do is Xiang Zhuang dance the sword, and the intention is Pei Gong?"

Duke Cheng Guoguo Zhu Yong asked a meaningful question.

"Please make it clear."

"The leaders of the three guards of Urianha, I have dealt with them several times, and they are all capricious people. I hope to get along well with the Ming and Mongolia and maintain my independent status."

"I believe they have learned that the Ming Dynasty's campaign against Urianha has been almost impossible to resist the two sides of the Liaodong Army and the Jing camp with the strength of the three guards. They either fled far away from Mobei, or surrendered and pretended to be respectful, waiting for the future rebellion."

"Now the Ming Dynasty is determined to swallow its land and its people. The past resignation of the Ola tribe has been unified on the grassland, and there is no place for the three Guliangha guards. This public judged that they would ask Yesen to send troops to assist and to rebel against the Liaodong Dushi!"

Zhu Yong, Duke Cheng, expressed his guess. For Mongolia, isn’t Liaodong Dusi a sharp sword hanging over their heads?

Whenever the Ming Dynasty Jingying was in the north, the Liaodong Dushi cooperated to send troops to the west, threatening the flanks of the Mongolian soldiers and horses. Now it hindered the Tiansheng Khan Yesen's ambition to annex the three Jurchen tribes and subdue North Korea.

The Liaodong Dusi was not destroyed, and even if the Jurchens and North Korea surrendered, they could be the second and fifth-year-olds jumped repeatedly. This is why the Ming Dynasty could give up the Nuer Gandusi, but never gave up the bitter and cold land of Liaodong under the premise that the financial collapse in the late Ming Dynasty was about to destroy the country.
