A family dinner, although not a happy one, can still be considered harmonious.
Zhu Yunxi treated his uncle with great respect and a gentle demeanor. King Zhu Di of Yan also suppressed his thoughts for the time being and treated the emperor's grandson with great respect.
As the old man said, brothers and nephews usually fight over each other. Not to mention the Tian family, even if ordinary people have little property, brothers always hide their thoughts. But the meat can only rot in the pot, and the family will not
The good thing is that it belongs to the ancestors. You can make trouble behind closed doors, but when dealing with other places, you must be consistent with the outside world.
Two days later, Fu Youde led an army of 70,000 from Datong to Peking to join Zhu Yunxi. It was said that there were 70,000 troops, but in fact there were less than 10,000. In the battle of Datong, facing the Beiyuan cavalry who desperately broke through, the Ming army also suffered many casualties.
.
One general's achievements are worth thousands of bones. Since ancient times, history has only remembered those famous generals. And those soldiers are just numbers on paper.
Then 30,000 soldiers and horses led by Dingyuan Marquis Wang Bi also arrived. Zhu Yunxi was surrounded by nearly 100,000 soldiers and horses, as well as the founding generals of the Ming Dynasty and a gathering of heroes.
In Beiping City, King Yan Zhu Di summoned his generals and selected nearly 40,000 elite troops.
At the outskirts of the school grounds, Zhu Yunxi watched from a distance as the Yan Fan assembled their troops. He was really giving orders. With the sound of drums, the generals had assembled, and the horse and infantry troops formed a square formation with the sound of two bronze drums. After three sound of drums, 40,000 people were already wearing armor and ready to go.
The speed of this gathering alone can be called the division of tigers and wolves. Moreover, the composition of Zhu Di's army is complex. The most elite heavy armored cavalry include not only men from Yanzhao, but also many Mongolians and Jurchens with braided hair.
.
These elites are equipped with both men and horses. Not only are they equipped with foot-long lances, but also have meteor hammers, short axes and other items used to break infantry positions hung on the saddles. They are also equipped with two horses per person.
The King of Yan's army also had a large number of artillery and firecrackers. When forming the formation, the artillery and infantry were in front, and the cavalry was in the back. Then came the army and elite heavy armored cavalry.
The initial website address is https://m.
Such an army is extremely suitable for large-scale field battles. Once the two armies are in battle, the artillery fires first, and the flank cavalry circles around the enemy's flank and back to launch an attack. At the same time, the infantry advances. Then, the elite heavy cavalry in the army act as
The decisive force is either a frontal assault or a flanking attack from the other side.
In the current national war, Zhu Di did not hide his secrets, and his elite troops were displayed in front of Zhu Yunxi without any hiding. Such an army, which was no less powerful than the Beijing camp, made Zhu Yunxi's eyelids twitch a few times.
Of course, when King Yan was ordering troops, Lan Yu would inevitably twist his lips and say a few words about King Yan's ambitions being very big, and his ambitions not being satisfied with just one local vassal king.
In addition to these hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, the King of Liao's 30,000 soldiers and horses have already marched to Liaoyang. Together with the elite northern army of the Liaodong Dusi, the Ming army alone has a total of 200,000 soldiers in the battle of Goryeo.
The civilian husbands and craftsmen are not included in this list.
The Ming Dynasty tigers and soldiers were assembled, and they only had to wait for Zhu Yunxi's order to cross the Yalu River and attack the heart of Goryeo like Mount Tai.
According to Zhu Yunxi's idea and the brainstorming of veteran generals, after the army crossed the river, he divided the elite cavalry on the flanks and drove straight in, avoiding the strong city. Zhu Yunxi led the army, starting from Sinuiju, attacking Anju first, and then Pyongyang.
~~
It was late at night again, and the lights in Zhu Yunxi's room were still dancing. The troops were about to be dispatched tomorrow, but he was still reading the secret report in his hand. He seemed a little careless, but in fact, the more important the matter, the more steady and cautious he was.
"Tang He's navy has already moved!" Zhu Yunxi looked at the memorial in his hand and murmured to himself, "The Jing navy has 20,000 people, plus the officers and soldiers of the Shandong Guards Station on the Jiaodong Peninsula who are good at naval warfare, supplying 50,000 people.
Jiaozhou is ready for cross-sea operations at any time."
Putting down the memorial, Zhu Yunxi walked to the huge map and first drew a circle heavily in Pyongyang, and then drew a circle in Shuju (Incheon).
No matter how passively Goryeo avoids war, it will never lose Pyongyang. Once Pyongyang falls into crisis, Seoul's soldiers and horses are destined to come to support. Then Goryeo's capital will become an empty city.
"Your Highness!" Someone shouted outside the door, it was Lan Yu's voice.
"Come in!" Zhu Yunxi first put away Tang He's secret fold, and then said.
Later, Lan Yu came in one after another with a group of military veterans, such as Wang Bi, Cao Zhen and others. They have been old brothers fighting side by side all their lives. Even though Lan Yu does not have any official position now, he habitually walks behind Lan Yu.
"It's so late, what's wrong?" Zhu Yunxi asked.
"Your Highness, I don't have an idea on how to fight, so I came to ask!" said Wang Bi, the Marquis of Dingyuan.
Zhu Yunxi was a little puzzled, "The military strategy has been decided. You are all old men who have been fighting to the death for your whole life. How come you don't know how to fight?"
"It's not that I don't know, it's that I don't know how to tell my subordinates!" Jingchuan Marquis Cao Zhen said with a smile, "This time during the expedition to Goryeo, the subordinates asked me if it was the same as before!"
"What routine?" Zhu Yunxi became more and more puzzled and said angrily, "Why are you vague? Just say whatever you want!"
These bandit leaders, who had followed the old man all their lives to kill and set fire, looked at each other and no one dared to say anything.
Still Lan Yu couldn't help it and asked, "Your Highness, do they mean to let the sons and gentlemen let go... and grab it!"
"Yes, yes, yes!" Zhang Yi, the Marquis of Heqing, said, "The men and women make a living with their heads in their belts, so we can't treat them badly, right! Besides, when you go out, you men have to bring some for home.
.....it’s not a good idea to bring back specialties!”
What a fucking specialty, it’s the first time I’ve heard that robbery is described in such a fresh and refined way!
Zhu Yunxi laughed and scolded in his heart, but his face was a bit serious. In this era, it was nonsense to talk about military discipline and Qiu had no violations. Not only that, the commander often condoned the robbery of his subordinates, etc., just to boost morale.
"When I came here, Grandpa Huang said that I should listen to your opinions on war matters!" Zhu Yunxi said with a smile, "You are all veterans of the country, I will listen to you!"
All the military princes were stunned by the nonsensical answer. These stubborn people didn't understand for a moment and wanted to ask again.
"I understand!" Lan Yu hurriedly spoke, and at the same time, after taking a look at these old killers, everyone suddenly realized.
It's really hard to talk about this matter for a virtuous person like the Emperor Taisun. Everyone knows it in their hearts, and there is no need for Chitose to say it out loud. It's so low, and the treatment of the men there is as good as that of a nephew holding a lantern. While fighting, he rows and pulls.
Specialties, don’t delay.
When the sons and daughters rowed, they themselves also wanted to row. There were so many children and grandchildren in the family, and they always felt that the money was not enough to spend. There were still three-point nails in the broken ships, right? No matter how poor Goryeo was, there was still some scattered silver, right?
Seeing these old army ruffians in high spirits, Zhu Yunxi said angrily, "I know these heretics, it's business to go back and study how to fight the enemy!"
"I have a question to ask!" Cao Zhen, Marquis of Jingchuan, said again, "Your Highness, when our army comes, the Koreans will definitely not be able to surrender without mercy. What should we do if we encounter a city that resists?"
Suddenly, Zhu Yunxi felt that there was something in the other person's words, and they were not good words.
Sure enough, Cao Zhen and a group of veterans continued to talk nonchalantly, "When we encounter a city that doesn't know what to do, how many times should we massacre it?"
"What did you say?" The corners of Zhu Yunxi's eyes twitched twice. Facing these old military gangsters who showed their true colors, his brain ached.
"Slaughter the city!" Yongping Hou Xie Cheng said with a matter-of-fact expression, "How to slaughter the disobedient ones? Should we not keep the chickens and dogs, or should we keep the craftsmen and women? Should we burn them to ashes, or should we keep the city? My lord.
When you serve under His Highness for the first time, you must ask clearly!"
"According to custom, all young and strong men must be slaughtered to prevent future troubles. As for the old people, they will waste food and cannot live. The women will be left behind and rewarded for the sons and daughters. The craftsmen will serve with the army, and the cattle, horses and animals will be given tooth sacrifices to the sons and daughters.
........." Huining Hou Zhang Wen said.
"Your Highness, don't look at the easy words of the ministers. In fact, the slaughter cannot be clean in one go. It will always take four or five days, three or four times. This kind of good thing cannot be done by the men in the Beijing camp. The border troops also have to do it.
The soldiers in Liaodongdong have always had little luck, they are all poor and crazy..."
Bang, Zhu Yunxi slapped his forehead and said angrily, "Get out! Get out!"
Seeing that he was angry, Lan Yu quickly pushed and scolded these old military leaders and drove them out. Besides, it can be said that as a modern soul, Zhu Yunxi really couldn't accept this kind of thing.
"Brother Lan, what's going on? Your Highness needs to tell you something, otherwise the boys won't be able to get anything by then, which will hurt the military's morale!"
Outside the house, a group of old killers still refused to let him go.
"I want to slap you all!" Lan Yu said angrily, "Did anyone say such a thing in front of His Highness?"
Cao Zhen, the Marquis of Jingchuan, said in confusion, "Back when we were fighting with the emperor, we had to explain things like this in person, otherwise the armies would start fighting over each other in order to grab things...then...
But I can’t control it!”
"Go away!" Lan Yu said angrily, "A bunch of people who kill talented people and don't care about human affairs!"
~~
Dong dong dong, woo woo woo.
War drums, accompanied by horns, suddenly sounded across the land of Youzhou. The war flags covered the sky like a forest, and the light of the armor on the soldiers made the sky dim.
More than 100,000 soldiers filled the sky and the earth. At a glance, you couldn't see the edge at all. All you could see were the Ming Dynasty Tigers with high fighting spirit.
The military flag of the Ming Dynasty was hung high, and under the huge yellow umbrella, Zhu Yunxi stood on the general stage in golden armor.
Boom, the last drum sound stopped suddenly.
Zhu Yunxi pressed the sword on his waist and looked around at the vassal kings and generals standing solemnly in front of him, with majestic faces.
"As my grandson is a thousand years old, all the armies have been assembled!" Fu Rang, the commander of the personal guards, walked up to the commander's platform, knelt down and said loudly.
"I have been ordered by Your Majesty to conquer Goryeo on behalf of the Emperor. Now that all the armies have been assembled, today is an auspicious time to send out troops. We will send out troops today!"
"Wonderful victory! Wonderful victory!"
The generals and soldiers responded to Zhu Yunxi's shouts, causing the mountains and rivers to shake, as if the sky was falling and the earth was falling.
"Where is King Yan Zhu Di?" Zhu Yunxi said loudly.
"I'm here!" Zhu Di, who was also wearing golden armor, took the order and came out from the audience.
"Lead Yan Fan's troops to be the vanguard of the army, cross Liaoyang and go straight to the Yalu River to be the vanguard of the entire army!" After shouting, Zhu Yunxi threw the golden token in his hand directly to the audience.
Zhu Di took it with one hand and said, "Master, take the order!"
"Where is Dingyuan Marquis Wang Bi?"
"Old minister is here!"
"Lead four thousand cavalry to cover the flanks of King Yan, echoing him from a distance."
"Here!"
"This battle is a national war!" Zhu Yunxi faced countless brave generals and raised his arms and shouted, "This is the time for the men of the Ming Dynasty to make contributions." He called out, drew out the sword from his waist and raised it to the sky, "Suigu destroyed the feudal country.
You should remember the annals of history. All troops, set out!"
More than 100,000 troops shouted in response, "God bless the Ming Dynasty!"
~~
The founding elite of the Ming Dynasty were all veterans of hundreds of battles who fought with Bei Yuan in the Corpse Mountain and Sea of Blood.
The commander gave the order and immediately set off. Although there were more than 100,000 Ming troops in Beiping, each unit moved forward in order, in an orderly manner without any panic. The infantry and artillery advanced along the road, and the cavalry in groups covered the advance on the flanks.
In front of you is the national gate. Behind you, in the majestic city of Peiping, are the proud gazes of countless Ming people.
