Chapter 370 Battle Plan! The 3rd Army Pounced on Lingbei Helin!
Latest website:
Lingbei, the Chinese army's tent!
Zhu Gaoxu, dressed in military uniform, looked around the audience.
Xue Lu, Liu Sheng, Chen Mao and other proud generals all looked solemn.
After only a few days of training, Zhu Gaoxu fully recovered. Except for the wound on his shoulder, he was almost as good as before.
After he recovered from his injuries, Zhu Di immediately ordered Han Wang Zhu Gaoxu to take charge of the three armies and take charge of the Lingbei Battle!
Hearing the emperor's order, Xue Lu, Liu Sheng and other generals like Jingnan were ecstatic.
After all, all the Mongolian tribes have been wiped out one by one, and it is difficult for the Mongolian army to stop a decent counterattack.
It is estimated that the battle between Lingbei Fucheng and Lin will be fought. Tuohuan Alutai and others will gather the last troops to hold on to the city, which will bring some difficulties to the Ming Dynasty King's Division who has been unstoppable along the way.
But with the barbarian-killing cannons sent by the Royal Manufacturing Bureau, and the return cannons left behind by Tuohuan's hasty retreat, no strong city is enough to blast these battlefield weapons several times!
Therefore, in this battle of Lingbei, it is inevitable that the Ming army will win and regain Lingbei!
All we need to do is gather an army and march to Helin to completely fill in the puzzle piece of Lingbei!
What happened next was that the imperial court sent civil servants to govern the administration.
In other words, His Majesty the Emperor changed the commander-in-chief of the three armies at this moment and ordered the King of Han Zhu Gaoxu to replace the Cavalry General Xue Lu. It was obviously a great achievement for His Highness the King of Han!
With this great achievement of regaining the Lingbei and Yongqing Deserts, His Highness the King of Han's popularity will skyrocket to an astonishing level!
When the Northern Expeditionary Army is victorious and returns to the dynasty, who can stop His Highness the King of Han from entering the East Palace and becoming the well-deserved crown prince of the Ming Dynasty?
The prince can't!
Grandson can’t do it!
Not even those civil servants!
In the face of Huanghuang's general trend, anyone who dares to block it will only be crushed into powder!
This edict from His Majesty the Emperor is tantamount to sending a political signal!
The crown prince of the Ming Dynasty is about to change hands!
Therefore, even if Xue Lu lost a monumental feat that would leave a name in history, he would happily accept it.
As long as His Highness the King of Han can successfully enter the East Palace and become the next emperor of the Ming Dynasty, is Xue Lu still afraid that he will lose his glory and wealth?
Hu Guang, Jin Youzi and other civil servants also guessed this terrible signal.
However, after what happened to He Linfu last time, His Majesty the Emperor was extremely dissatisfied with them.
Not to mention giving advice and advice, they were beaten severely even though they had nothing to do. They are still bruised and swollen, and they dare not say anything!
At this moment, the two of them could only sit and record their work honestly, watching helplessly as the King of Han Zhu Gaoxu took over the army, formulated a battle plan, and achieved a great success in vain.
Because of Emperor Yongle's reminder, Zhu Gaoxu also realized that the losses in the Lingbei Battle would bring a huge burden to the Ming Dynasty's finances.
Therefore, in order to end the Lingbei battle as soon as possible, he accepted the order happily and began to command the three armies without giving it much thought.
On the huge sand table, Ming Dynasty Yellow Dragon flags were planted all over Lingbei.
Zhu Gaoxu reached out and picked up a dragon flag and inserted it into the sand table.
"This is Hang'ai Mountain. One of the highest honors for a martial artist, 'Yan Ran Le Gong', is located here. This Yan Ran Mountain is Hang'ai Mountain."
"At the southern foot of Hangai Mountain is Lingbei Fucheng and Lin, the former imperial capital of the Mongolian Kingdom!"
“Back then, Genghis Khan led the Mongolian cavalry to march west from the Hangai Mountains in Mongolia, all the way to the southern Russian grasslands. It seemed like a long way, but in fact it was less than 4,000 kilometers from the Hangai Mountains to the Volga River!”
"Moreover, starting from Hang'ai Mountain, passing through the Altay region, and arriving at the Stan countries in Central Asia, the road is basically a flat grassland, which is very suitable for the cavalry army to attack and gallop. Therefore, starting from Hang'ai Mountain, the cavalry army can quickly march into Central Asia!"
After a pause, Zhu Gaoxu looked at everyone decisively.
"This is also the real reason why I, the Ming Dynasty, must control Hangai Mountain!"
"We, the Ming Dynasty, conquered Lingbei and sent officials to garrison it. We can imitate the Yuan Dynasty and build the Lingbei province into a fortress in the south of the Yangtze River. Then we can reserve money, food and supplies, and can march westward to Central Asia at any time. The Timurid Empire can It has astonishing wealth that encompasses the entire Central Asia!”
Hearing what King Han said, all the warriors became excited instantly.
Sure enough, he is worthy of being the master they chose!
The generals were a little worried at first, but as the Battle of Lingbei was coming to an end, these arrogant soldiers would not be left idle, or even liquidated, ending up with the same fate as the founding generals!
It was not until the King of Han Dynasty opened his mouth that the generals were completely relieved!
Zhu Gaoxu, the king of Han, not only wants to conquer Lingbei, but also marches into Central Asia, and also wants to conquer the Timur Empire!
Such an ambitious leader who opened the frontier is the clear leader of their military attachés and generals!
Emperor Yongle, who was sitting aside, had been listening to everyone making battle plans with a face full of relief, but as he listened, he felt something was wrong.
This bastard, the second brother, doesn't think it's enough to fight against Lingbei. He actually wants to march into Central Asia and fight against Timur's empire?
"Ahem, King Han, the Timur Empire has declared itself a vassal and paid tribute to our Ming Dynasty, and you also said that the cavalry can quickly maneuver to Central Asia. What about the logistical supplies?"
"Hangai Mountain is indeed a good springboard, but entering Central Asia requires careful consideration."
Emperor Yongle was a little scared at this moment. He was really afraid of his second son, so he directly led his troops to kill him!
This is not impossible, but very possible!
After all, this second guy often does unexpected things!
"Dad, why don't you attack the Timur Empire? You have forgotten that the lame Timur conquered the Ming Dynasty a few years ago and has been planning and preparing for this for decades!"
Zhu Gaoxu said with a smile, "If this lame guy hadn't been so lucky and died suddenly after drinking Arak soju, you, the great emperor of tomorrow, might have been beaten all over his head by him..."
Zhu Di: "???"
What?
Can't beat it?
I can't beat Timur?
You rebellious child, do you look down on your father and me so much?
Why didn't I deal with you? You traitor started to feel itchy again?
Emperor Yongle was furious when he heard this, and sneered and mocked: "Then Timur's battle line is so long, and my army of the Ming Dynasty is waiting for work, and it is at the time when the military is at its peak, how can it be possible to lose to that damn cripple?"
"Oh, maybe." Zhu Gaoxu chuckled without explaining too much.
In fact, Timur had been preparing for his expedition to the Ming Dynasty for decades. When he set out for the expedition, there were mountains of food and a sea of horses and sheep. It can be said that he was fully prepared.
And the first wave of forward troops alone numbered 200,000, and there would be a second and third wave of troops to follow!
On the other hand, due to the Jingnan Campaign, the Ming Dynasty was in some unstable positions. The total strength of the first-line frontier army was only 150,000, and the total strength of the second-line frontier was only 200,000. This was still a full situation. In fact, some guard posts were already empty. In terms of military strength alone, the Ming Dynasty was no match for the Tie Army.
In addition, the Ming Dynasty had just experienced a Jingnan campaign, and Zhang Yu, Wang Zhen, Chen Heng, Zhang Wu, Tan Yuan and other brave generals had all died in the battle. UU Kanshu www.uukanshu.net Qiu Fu, Liu Cai, Chen Gui, Zheng Heng, Meng Shan, and Huozhen were all brave men. They had no talent as commanders and were capable of acting alone. Zhu Neng was the only one who was seriously ill.
Among the surrendered generals, Ping'an, He Fu, and Gu Cheng were known as veteran generals, but they were all embarrassed by their heavy responsibilities. Emperor Yongle was not worried about allowing them to take power. Sheng Yong and Geng Bingwen had already committed suicide, and Li Jinglong was under house arrest.
Looking at it this way, in the Ming Dynasty at that time, there was no one who could fight...
The key point was that the Ming Dynasty never thought that Timur would dare to sweep across the border and launch a desperate attack with his army.
If the lame man hadn't had a better life, hadn't died suddenly, and directly led his troops to raid Gansu, Shaanxi and other places, the Ming Dynasty would have been caught off guard, and he might have been beaten all over his head, and he might even have lost half of his country!
Unfortunately, the final showdown between the two super empires became anticlimactic due to Timur's sudden death, leaving countless regrets.
Thinking about it, Zhu Gaoxu shook his head and continued to return to the topic at hand.
"Even if we don't march, I, the Ming Dynasty, must control Lingbei and contain Hangai Mountain. Otherwise, if a hero appears again in the Timur Empire, the Mobei grassland will never be peaceful."
Hearing this, Zhu Di did not refute and nodded in approval.
Zhu Gaoxu then pointed out several key locations, such as Kulun (Ulaanbaatar), Ulyasutai, Khovd and other key areas, which must be firmly controlled so that the Ming Dynasty can completely control Mobei. grassland!
The combat meeting ended and the army set off immediately.
Zhu Gaoxu rode on a tall war horse and walked beside Emperor Yongle, feeling extremely proud in his heart!
"Dad, please live a few more years. My son will go to Central Asia to snatch some Western dancers for you, so that you can experience the real exotic customs!"
Zhu Di: "???"
Everyone: "???"
