"Break the golden tent and capture the pseudo-Yuan Emperor alive!" Wang Bi picked up the reins, waved the sword in his hand towards the golden tent, and roared suddenly.
The sound reached the ears of the Ming army officers, and everyone looked in front of Wang Bi. When they saw the golden and red golden tent, everyone's eyes turned into a golden red, which complemented the brilliance of the golden tent.
"Broken Golden Account"
"Capture the Pseudo-Yuan Emperor Alive"
"Kill! Kill! Kill"
With the pseudo-Yuan Emperor as a hatred amplifier and morale multiplier in front, the morale of the Ming army instantly increased several times and became completely unstoppable. The Yuan army collapsed at a faster speed.
Wang Bi took the lead in attacking the Golden Tent, followed by the soldiers behind him, and then the other soldiers. Everyone was searching every corner of the Golden Tent with red eyes, trying to find the pseudo-Yuan Emperor.
Lan Yu also arrived here quickly, and before she went in, she saw Wang Bi coming out. ??
Faced with Lan Yu's questioning gaze, Wang Bi replied somewhat dejectedly: "The Pseudo-Yuan Emperor is not here, he has already escaped."
"Chase!" Lan Yu didn't hesitate at all and immediately sent out elite cavalry to pursue.
After going through all kinds of hardships and going deep into Mobei, although the Yuan army was defeated, if the puppet emperor of the Yuan Dynasty was taken away, even this time the credit would be reduced by more than half.
All the achievements here are not as good as a pseudo-Yuan emperor!
Unfortunately, the sun set quickly and the grassland became pitch black. The cavalry chasing the pseudo-Yuan Emperor couldn't tell the direction at all, and it didn't take long before they completely lost sight of the pseudo-Yuan Emperor.
When the sun rose again the next day, the Ming army was already clearing the battlefield.
In the evening, the cavalry chasing the pseudo-Yuan Emperor also retreated. Judging from their dejected looks, it was obvious that they had gained nothing.
With regret in her heart, Lan Yu had no choice but to give up the idea of continuing to pursue the pseudo-Yuan Emperor and focus on the gains in front of her.
Wang Bi came in front of him with a rough list and handed it to Lan Yu: "A great victory, a great victory! We beheaded thirty-three thousand people and captured the slaves, concubines, and princesses of the second son of the pseudo-Yuan Emperor.
The following are more than a hundred people, King Duo'er of Wu, 3,000 people from Dai Wang Dalima and officials below Pingzhang, more than 77,000 men and women, as well as precious seals, talismans, gold and silver seals and other items, horses, camels, and oxen
, there are more than 150,000 sheep, and there are countless armored vehicles and baggage."
Thirty-three thousand people were beheaded. This is probably the most beheadings in the Northern Expedition since the founding of the Ming Dynasty. There are also so many gains, including the capture of the second son, concubines, and princesses of the pseudo-Yuan Emperor. This can be regarded as the whole family of the pseudo-Yuan Emperor.
They had all been caught in one fell swoop, except for the pseudo-Yuan emperor and the crown prince Tianbaonu.
He also captured Duo'er, King of Wu, and represented Wang Da
There are 3,000 officials below Lima and Pingzhang, which can be regarded as a clean sweep of all the officials of the Northern Yuan Dynasty. From today on, the Northern Yuan Dynasty has ceased to exist in name only.
Although the pseudo-Yuan Emperor and Prince Tianbaonu were not captured, even the current gains are enough to make Lan Yu smile and leave his name in history.
"Good news, send the good news to the emperor quickly!" Lan Yu shouted repeatedly.
Of course, the emperor must be the first to know about such an unparalleled achievement. Firstly, it makes the emperor happy, and secondly, since Lan Yu has made such a great contribution, how can the emperor not reward him heavily?
Lan Yu was already thinking about the scene when he was made the Duke of the country.
"Don't worry, General. As soon as the liquidation is cleared, we will send a horse to report to the capital."
Wang Bi also smiled happily.
Capital.
In the spring morning, a mist dispersed. The sunlight fell on the slightly moist stone slabs, and the water quickly evaporated.
After the morning court, Lao Zhu rarely dealt with the memorial. Instead, he stepped down from the dragon chair and walked outside the hall, where he stood and looked up to the north.
This unusual reaction made Zhu Biao, who was following him, bewildered and tentatively ask, "Are you worried about the war in the north?"
Lao Zhu did not look back, but nodded slightly and imperceptibly.
Zhu Biao saw him and quickly comforted him: "Ying Guogong, Lan Yu and the fourth brother are all brave and capable generals. This time the Ming Dynasty sends 300,000 troops to the north, they will definitely win a great victory. Father, please pay attention to Long."
Body, don’t worry.”
Zhu Biao's consolation had no effect on Lao Zhu. Lao Zhu shook his head slightly and sighed: "Except Lan Yu's 150,000 troops, Fu Youde's 60,000 horses are just Han people from Liaodong who have just surrendered, and Lao Si
Although we have many people and horses with us, Han Du’s Shanzi camp has never entered the grassland, and I don’t know if the fourth child can protect Han Du.”
Seeing his father mention Han Du, Zhu Biao couldn't help but criticize him even though he was obedient to his father. After thinking about it for a while, he still pursed his lips and asked: "Since my father is worried about Han Du, why should he do it?"
Let him go to the grassland?"
Only then did Lao Zhu turn around and glance at Zhu Biao. He moved his fingers to tell the people around him to step back, and then said to Zhu Biao: "Actually, you should also be able to see that Han Du was left by me for you.
.”
Zhu Biao nodded lightly. After his father conferred the title of Marquis on Han Du, no matter how much contribution Han Du made, his father would rather confer the title on Han Du's family members.
Zhu Biao already knew his father's intentions if he refused to continue to reward Han Du.
"I don't want to make Han Du the Duke of the country, just because I want to leave this opportunity to you. You will personally decree to make Han Du the Duke, so that he can wholeheartedly assist you in governing the country." Lao Zhu paused for a few breaths when he said this.
.
After that, he continued: "How can an important minister of the auxiliary country have never been to the grassland, don't even know what Meng Yuan is like, and don't even know how to fight against Meng Yuan? It is precisely because of this that I cannot
Even if Han Du is not allowed to go, he has to go!"
"Thank you very much, Father. It's my son's incompetence that makes Father worry so much." Zhu Biao felt Lao Zhu's kindness and couldn't help but said.
The beloved son of his parents indeed had far-reaching plans. Lao Zhu was also worried about Zhu Biao.
Seeing the self-blame on the face of his chosen prince, Lao Zhu looked into his eyes calmly and said seriously: "No, you are very good! Although you are too kind, you can always be kind to people and things.
You are extremely generous, which is not in line with my wishes, but judging from your ability to govern the country, you are very good. I am very relieved that you will inherit the Ming Dynasty in the future!"
Lao Zhu nodded heavily and looked at Zhu Biao with certainty. ??
Zhu Biao was surprised by his father's words. This was the first time he heard his father express dissatisfaction with him.
Seeing Zhu Biao's confusion, Lao Zhu had no choice but to explain: "If you were an ordinary person, there would be no problem with your generosity and kindness. But as a king, you must not be blindly kind, and of course you cannot be blindly domineering. Only by combining hardness and softness can you
They complement each other.”
Domineering~
This was the first time Zhu Biao heard his father describe himself in this way, and he was shocked.
Lao Zhu sneered at Zhu Biao and said, "Do you think I don't even know who I am and what I am doing?"
"But since Father knows that this is not good, why would he still do it?" Zhu Biao was even more confused. Originally, he thought he had seen Father clearly, but now he discovered that he actually knew nothing about Father. No matter he
No matter how hard I try to see my father now, I can't see clearly through a thick layer of fog.
Lao Zhu clasped his hands behind his back and turned towards Fengtianmen. His eyes spread from his feet to Fengtianmen, and then to the whole world. "I founded the Ming Dynasty, and everything is waiting for it. If I want you to be so kind and generous now, then the world will not know it."
Some people are lonely, and some are lonely.
But you are different. Your name of kindness is known all over the world. When you come to the throne in the future, you will immediately gain the support of the people of the world. I have been strict with the people of the world for so many years.
It’s time for them to breathe a sigh of relief.”
"Keep this in mind, I will definitely live up to your father's expectations." Zhu Biao took a deep breath and bowed solemnly to his father.
Lao Zhu glanced at Zhu Biao indifferently: "Don't be too happy too early. I have said that you cannot govern the country just by relying on kindness. Therefore, I must leave Han Du to you. This boy is insidious.
He is cunning, and no conspiracy can be hidden from his eyes. Only with him helping you keep an eye on the civil and military affairs of this dynasty can I rest assured."
After saying that, Lao Zhu said directly: "Originally, I would never worry about someone like Han Du. Fortunately, he married An Qing, and now Han Jingyun has become the princess, so I can safely keep him."
for you."
Lao Zhu did not say how he would deal with Han Du if Han Du did not marry An Qing and Zhu Biao did not marry Han Jingyun.
But Zhu Biao just thought about it briefly, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on his back, and his palms became sweaty because he was worried about Han Du.
"Now, do you know why I asked Han Du to go to the grassland?" After Lao Zhu finished saying this, he glanced at Zhu Biao lightly.
Zhu Biao took a deep breath and nodded slowly.
At the same time, a fast horse came straight to the city gate from outside the capital.
The soldiers guarding the city were extremely displeased with this behavior of not slowing down at the gate of the city. They couldn't control the people running wildly in other places, but not at the feet of the emperor anyway.
The soldiers guarding the city were about to step forward to stop him, when the man on horseback suddenly took out a command flag and shouted.
"Eight hundred miles haste, the general will win a great victory in Yuerhai, and the Yuan Dynasty will be defeated and captured without any calculation."
When the soldiers guarding the city heard this, they felt as if they had been scalded by the air in front of them. They immediately stepped back and hurriedly cleared the debris at the city gate so that they could quickly enter the city.
The soldiers and civilians rushed past the cave entrance like a horse, and countless people were shocked by the news they heard.
They couldn't believe their ears
"The Great General's Great Victory at Fishing the Sea"
"It is useless to destroy the Yuan Dynasty and capture it"
The people may not know who the general is, but they only need to know that the Ming Dynasty defeated the Bei Yuan Dynasty, and it was a great victory.
Even the court of the Northern Yuan Dynasty was defeated by the Ming Dynasty.
When was the last time the Northern Yuan Dynasty was defeated? That was when Xu Da conquered Dadu of the Yuan Dynasty and the Meng Yuan Dynasty completely retreated to the grassland.
It was the first year of Hongwu and the Ming Dynasty had just been founded!
