The Korean navy celebrated the Dragon Boat Festival happily. Seeing so many brothel girls singing and dancing in front of them, their blood was pumping with excitement. If Shandong area had not been occupied by the Cheonwan Army, they would have wanted to go wild and violent on the spot.
Although it was just a one-time experience, it still made them feel satisfied when they came back. Park Bucheng, a soldier of the Korean Navy, rushed to the naval fleet and said excitedly to his companions, "Assi!"
Beautiful Smecta from the Central Plains!
Smecta I really want!”
"Yes! I want Smecta too!"
Hearing the cowardly response from his companion, Pu Bucheng suddenly turned his head and looked over in surprise, and found that it was his companion who was supposed to be on duty, "Park Nanbei, aren't you supposed to be on duty?
Why is Smita going ashore to celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival?"
"Oh! Smecta is not needed for duty!
No one dares to attack the Smecta of our Korean fleet!" Park Nanbei shook his head disapprovingly, still immersed in the excitement of watching the float parade just now.
"Axi..."
Soon the commander of the Goryeo Navy also learned about the soldiers on duty leaving their posts without permission, but before he could angrily teach the soldiers on duty, they were already surrounded by Cheonwan's army.
Realizing that his family had been stolen, the Goryeo general gave up resistance as if he were mourning for his concubine, and obediently became a prisoner of Cheonwan's army.
Then Xu Shouhui asked Chen Youliang and Zhang Dingbian to lead the 100,000-day army, take the newly captured Goryeo fleet, and recruit all the large and small civilian ships in Shandong to send troops to Goryeo Inchon.
When the people of Goryeo saw their Goryeo ships, they thought it was their own navy who had returned, and immediately came to greet their "relatives" with pots of rice in them.
However, after the Cheonwan Army quickly landed, the Goryeo people were suddenly confused. The "relatives" became strangers to the Cheonwan Army. However, the Cheonwan Army did not pay attention to the "enthusiastic" Goryeo people, and instead headed directly and quickly towards Seoul.
March.
At this time, the defenders of Seoul were basking in the sun out of boredom. The warm sunshine shining on the defenders was so beautiful and comfortable. It felt like the Koreans were the people blessed by God and could enjoy it without any worries.
Peaceful time.
"Assi! Why are there so many people there?"
"Oh! It should be Smecta, a nobleman from Seoul who went out to hunt in the city again!"
"Well! It's possible Smecta!
Park Guangda, you are such a smart Smecta!"
"Haha, Yin Buju, you are also a very smart Smecta!"
"Ha ha ha ha......"
The joy of the Seoul defenders did not last long, Seoul was soon occupied by Cheonwan's army, and those who were still laughing just now were now cold corpses.
After the quick-fighting Cheonwan Army entered Seoul, they immediately occupied the Goryeo Palace and the royal treasury, and captured the Goryeo King and his concubines. As for the Goryeo King's ministers, they were kneeling like obedient kittens.
In front of Tian Wanjun.
...
After receiving the news that Chen Youliang and Zhang Dingbian led an army of 100,000 people to occupy Goryeo, Suning from Yingtian Mansion was also surprised. Suddenly he felt that the world was so magical, and the arrogant Goryeo was conquered like this.
"Sissi, I have some good news for you."
"Ah? What's the good news?"
"Korea was occupied by Chen Youliang and Zhang Dingbian."
"Ah? So fast!"
"Yes! It's so fast!"
Suning knew that Goryeo's national power was very weak at this time, and almost all its potential was drained by the Mongolian and Yuan Dynasties, but he did not expect that it would be so weak.
No wonder that in the history of the original time and space, the powerful Li family of Goryeo were able to overthrow the King of Goryeo, and then set their sights on the Liaodong region of China. It turned out that the Goryeo people had already put all their hopes on opening up territories.
At this time, all the places south of the Yangtze River fell into the hands of the Red Flag Army, but Suning was not in a hurry to proclaim himself emperor. Instead, he wanted to take advantage of the Meng Yuan army to attack the Red Turban Army with all its strength, and blast Meng Yuan's army behind Meng Yuan.
chrysanthemum.
Chang Yuchun, who was engaged in a tug-of-war with the Mongolian and Yuan armies in Sichuan, was secretly transferred to respond to Tianfu, and Zhou Dexing was temporarily appointed as the division commander to continue to contain the Mongolian and Yuan military forces in Sichuan.
Not only was Chang Yuchun brought back with the main force, but Xu Da and the Fujian army were also secretly recalled to Yingtian Mansion to carry out pre-war mobilization together.
Yunnan, Kunming.
Zhu Chongba's wife, Mrs. Li, ran into Zhu Chongba's study with a face of surprise. Seeing Zhu Chongba discussing something with his three adopted sons, she immediately couldn't help but look at Zhu Chongba.
"Chongba, I heard that the prince has come to give orders.
Are you calling us to respond to Tianfu?"
"Mother!" Zhu Wenzheng, Li Wenzhong and Mu Ying quickly saluted Mrs. Li.
"Yes! No gifts!" Mrs. Li smiled at the three adopted sons, and then looked at Zhu Chongba again with a look of expectation.
Zhu Chongba knew that his wife Li wanted to be a relative of Tianfu, so he looked at Xie Jinzhong, the supervisor next to him, and then explained to Li, "That's right! The prince has come to give orders.
But instead of calling me back, they gave me a map of the southeastern peninsula and asked me to lead an army to attack the southeastern peninsula."
"Ah? How could this happen?"
"Hey! I don't know what's going on.
Maybe the prince attaches great importance to the Southeast Peninsula!"
"It shouldn't be!
My father wrote to me and said that Yingtian Mansion has been planning the Northern Expedition recently, and even Chang Yuchun and Xu Da have been secretly transferred back, so there is no reason not to let you go back too!"
"This..." Zhu Chongba didn't know how to answer his wife's question.
"Commander, the prince intends to set up military regions across the country. You are likely to become the commander of the Southwest Military Region, and by then you will be a real official in the border area.
So there is no need for you to participate in this Northern Expedition. After all, conquering the southeastern peninsula is also very important." Looking at Zhu Chongba who looked regretful, Supervisor Xie Jinzhong explained with a smile.
"Xie Jianjun, I understand everything you said.
But I really want to participate in this Northern Expedition, and this has almost become the obsession of all the generals of the Red Flag Army."
"Yeah! I understand!
If Commander, you really want to participate in this Northern Expedition, there are ways."
"Oh? Xie Jianjun, how can you teach me?"
"Haha, sir, you are a fan of the authorities!
In fact, the war in the southwest can be left to your adopted sons Zhu Wenzheng and Li Wenzhong, and you can apply to the prince to respond to Tianfu's participation in the Northern Expedition."
"Haha, yes!
I will write the application now, I must participate in this Northern Expedition."
...
Chahan Timur's military front was really fierce. As soon as he took office, he overcame all objections and used his adopted son, who was also his nephew Wang Baobao. Together, father and son commanded an army of 400,000 Mongolian Yuan troops to attack the Red Turban Army.
.
Facing the elite soldiers and generals of the Mongolian Yuan court, the Red Scarf Army quickly revealed its serious shortcomings, and then the Mongolian Yuan army broke through Fengxiang without long resistance, and then retreated all the way to Henan in a crushing defeat.
Seeing how powerful Chahan Timur and Wang Baobao were, the Emperor of the Yuan Dynasty threw away all the memorials impeaching them and his son, and once again organized an army of 200,000 to hand over Chahan Timur and Wang Baobao and his son.
At this time, Yingtian Mansion was like a high-speed weapon, constantly deploying all the military forces in the southern half of the Yangtze River, striving to defeat all the Mongolian and Yuan armies at once.
Looking at the conference room filled with stars, Suning suddenly felt a surge of power, "Everyone, the latest news is that after the defeat of Fengxiang in Shaanxi, the Red Scarf Army has retreated to the Henan area, and Chahan Timur and Wang Baobao and his son
The 600,000-strong army he led was approaching Henan."
"Your Majesty, I am willing to lead the Red Flag Army in the vanguard to attack the back of the Mongolian and Yuan armies." Mao Gui stood up excitedly for the first time.
"Well! My intention is also to march from Hubei to Nanyang to complete the task of destroying the chrysanthemums of the Mongolian Yuan army.
It’s just that the Northern Expedition to the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty is easy, but how to deal with the aftermath and follow-up matters is very troublesome.”
"Ah?" All the generals looked at Ming Wang Suning in front of them with doubtful expressions.
"Come! Let's take a look at this map first!" Suning asked people to bring it up and Liu's carefully crafted map, which was more standard than the map used in the late Yuan Dynasty.
Everyone had never seen such a clear map before, and they immediately focused their attention on the map, "Your Majesty, this map is so clear!"
"Ahem! That's not the point.
The point is that whether we march from the direction of Nanyang or cooperate with the navy to land from Tianjin from the direction of Shandong, it will be easy to drive away the Mongolian and Yuan court, but we cannot eliminate them all."
"Ah? So what happened!
As long as we can drive them away!" Chang Yuchun didn't understand Suning's meaning for a while.
"Your Majesty, do you mean that after driving away the Mongolian and Yuan armies, they will still become a serious problem for us, and we will still have endless tug-of-war with the Mongolian and Yuan armies on the border?" Zhu Chongba stood aside at this time.
After understanding what Suning meant, he couldn't help but widen his eyes and expressed his thoughts aloud.
"Yes! That's right! That's what I mean." Suning looked at Zhu Chongba with a smile, and then looked at everyone again, "You are all talents of our China. Today's meeting is very important, and it is almost related to the destiny of our China for a thousand years.
.”
When everyone present took it seriously, Suning said firmly again, "You must be curious, why do I have to say Huaxia every time I speak?
That's because I am a nationalist. Our Chinese nation is not only Han, but also compatriots from various other minority ethnic groups.
What we should strive for first is the living environment of the nation, not personal interests."
"How long can a person live? Sixty years, or a hundred years?
That’s just a drop in the ocean!
Therefore, our generation must strive for more living space for our Chinese nation and future generations."
"Hey! Maybe you don't understand this at the moment, but we can take our time.
When you know how big this world is, you will understand what I mean." Looking at everyone's expressions that seemed to understand but not understand, Suning was actually a little helpless. He knew that what he said now was indeed a bit "over the top".
“Let’s get back to business.
I can tell you responsibly that the current Mongolian Yuan Dynasty is already in a state of decay. As long as our one million Red Flag Army begins the Northern Expedition, the first thought of the Mongolian Yuan nobles will be how to escape."
"Everyone can just imagine, we have driven the Mongolian and Yuan forces out of the Great Wall, what should we do next?"
"Eh? Your Majesty, why don't we just continue attacking the Meng Yuan hinterland!" Chang Yuchun still looked at Suning with some confusion.
"My lord, do you mean that you are worried that you will not be able to completely eliminate the Meng Yuan forces, and when they retreat beyond the Great Wall, they will contain all our energy?" This is when Liu Bowen understood what Suning meant.
"Yes!" Suning thought of the history of the Ming Dynasty when the emperor guarded the country and the king died in the country, which was the three hundred years of struggle between the Mongolian and Yuan Dynasties. "As long as the Mongolian and Yuan army retreats to the grassland, we will inevitably fall into an endless border war."
It was only then that everyone understood what Suning meant, and then they all stared at the map seriously. They felt more and more that Suning had considered it far-reaching, and they all agreed with Suning's concerns in their hearts.
Looking at the people who were beginning to think seriously, Suning showed a satisfied smile. As long as these Chinese people in the late Yuan Dynasty began to think about the fate of the nation, Suning would have accomplished his biggest goal.
There have been many outstanding people in China throughout the ages, but due to problems with their horizons, they eventually led to self-destruction, which Suning in later generations once thought was a pity. If they had been thinking about the future of the nation one after another, there would have been hundreds of years of humiliation for later generations.
"Your Majesty, I think we can use the strategy of attacking but not annihilating, not attacking Dadu and the hinterland of Mongolian Yuan in Shaanxi Province, aiming not to force them back to the grassland, and then use tug-of-war to consume Mongolian Yuan's strength." Liu Bowen's eyes suddenly flashed.
Liang, expressed his point of view.
"Yes! That's it!" Suning nodded with a smile, and then continued to explain, "This is also the reason why I appointed a large number of old ministers of Meng Yuan. I want to try to use the method of recruiting and surrendering to continue to use these generals and ministers until they are ready.
Without the Yuan Emperor, they will still regard themselves as a member of China."
"This...is difficult!"
"Haha, yes! It's difficult!
But we have to do it, because this is the mission of our generation." Suning looked at everyone with firm eyes, "We must have the spirit of Foolish Old Man to move mountains. If this generation cannot complete it, then let the next generation continue.
If one hundred years doesn’t work, then two hundred or one thousand years!”
At this time, everyone was shocked by Suning's momentum. It was the first time they knew about Ming Wang Suning's lofty ambitions, and they also heard that Ming Wang Suning planned a huge millennium goal for them.
"A warlike warrior will lead to death!" Suning still heard the inaudible voice as Song Lian.
"Yes! Those who are warlike will perish!
But if we don't fight, we will kill each other!" Suning has been avoiding this sensitive topic, but he has to face it, just to make the proud soldiers and unworldly ministers in front of him sober up.
"ah?"
Everyone understood the meaning of Suning's words. Everyone looked at Suning in shock and fear, including "Wise Demon" Liu Bowen and "True Dragon" Zhu Chongba, who could not hide what they were feeling.
The biggest fear.
This topic is really too sensitive. No matter the emperors of Qin, Han, Wu, or the ancestors of Tang and Song Dynasty, they could not avoid this kind of problem of dealing with heroes. I didn't expect that Suning would say it in public, and they would definitely be punished by him in the future.
"Ever since the Red Flag Army occupied the entire area south of the Yangtze River, I have heard some people instigating me to proclaim myself the emperor, because only if I proclaim myself the emperor can I be granted the title of king. Some people even want to be crowned the king." Suning suddenly looked cold.
Look at everyone here.
Meeting Suning's cold eyes, everyone lowered their heads unconsciously. Almost all of them had selfish motives. Civil servants like Li Shanchang wanted to be the prime minister of the most popular ministers, while military generals like Zhu Chongba and Xu Da also wanted to
Being crowned a king, even a small character like Zhou Dexing expected to be crowned a marquis and become a prime minister one day.
How Suning can satisfy their desires will only slowly increase the conflict between the two parties, and eventually they will go on a killing spree like Zhu Yuanzhang did in the original time and space history, but Suning really doesn't want to do this.
"Come here! Bring up another map!"
"Yes! Your Majesty!" Soon someone presented a larger map again.
In front of everyone at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, Suning opened another map that he and his wife Liu made - the world map. This was also the first time that the entire world was clearly displayed in front of everyone at the end of the Yuan Dynasty.
