"Hahahaha!" Zhu Youxiao laughed when he saw this and patted Lu Xiangsheng on the shoulder and said: "Feng Lang Juxu is too petty. I want to completely solve the grassland border problems and restore the homeland of the Han and Tang Dynasties. I am afraid that I will have to fight with Europe and the Western Regions in the future. The powerful countries of the world will face each other, and that will be the first step for my Ming Dynasty to enter the world stage!"
Although Lu Xiangsheng also knew the world situation, he still had the inherent conservatism of scholars in his thinking. In his opinion, being able to eliminate the threat of the grassland to the Central Plains was already an extraordinary achievement, but he did not expect that in Zhu Youxiao's eyes, this was only the first step!
Seeing Lu Xiangsheng in a daze, Zhu Youxiao patted him on the shoulder again and said with a smile: "These are all things for later. You can deal with the matter in front of you now!"
Lu Xiangsheng took a deep breath and saluted: "I obey your decree!"
After leaving Zhu Youxiao's tent, Lu Xiangsheng went directly back to the Imperial Alliance Army's station!
Since there were 50,000 more people all of a sudden, the Imperial Alliance Army station seemed quite chaotic, but fortunately, most of them were people from the Horqin tribe, so no one dared to cause trouble despite the chaos!
As soon as Lu Xiangsheng came back, Mang Gurtai and Batuga surrounded him!
Mang Gurtai asked: "Commander, what did your Majesty say?"
Batuga was actually more enthusiastic than Mang Gurtai, because Mang Gurtai was already the deputy commander of the Imperial Association Cavalry. He had just surrendered and didn¡¯t know what his future would be. If he could get a deputy commander this time, he would be considered an immediate Stay on your feet!
Lu Xiangsheng said solemnly: "Your Majesty has agreed to our petition and divided the Imperial Alliance Army into three banners. You two will each command a banner. In addition, Your Majesty has agreed to eliminate the old and weak in the Imperial Alliance Army. And Your Majesty has said that there is no need to worry about it." In order to save Oba's face, all unqualified soldiers were eliminated. In addition, His Majesty also selected 500 people from the Dragon Tooth Guards and the Blood Flag Army to serve as the military police of our Royal Association Army Cavalry. From now on, the combat strength of our Royal Association Army Cavalry will be But it¡¯s time to improve again!¡±
Mang Gurtai and Batuga were both stunned when they heard this, and felt a mixture of joy and sorrow in their hearts. They were happy that they could finally take charge of their own business and had a promising future, but they were worried that they knew how powerful the Dragon Tooth Guards and the Blood Banner Army were, so they were trapped in such a trap. I'm afraid it'll be hard to feel free in the future if I'm under a tight spell!
However, these two men also knew that they had surrendered. It was impossible for Emperor Zhu Youxiao to completely trust them. Being able to let them lead the army was already a great kindness. If they think about other things, they just don't know what to do!
So the two of them bowed together and said: "Please give me more support from the commander-in-chief!"
Lu Xiangsheng said sternly: "This is His Majesty's kindness. You two must cherish it. Otherwise, if you make a mistake, not only will the glory and wealth be lost, but you may not even be able to keep your head!"
The two of them said solemnly: "Don't worry, Commander, since we have surrendered to Your Majesty, we should repay you with death. We dare not have any second thoughts!"
Lu Xiangsheng nodded with satisfaction and said: "In that case, let's eliminate the old and weak first, and then all the soldiers will be randomly distributed. Do you two have any objections?"
Mang Gurtai and Batuga's hearts trembled, knowing that this was to break up the people close to them, so how could they dare to have any objections? I can only bow and respond!
Lu Xiangsheng immediately ordered: "Then execute it immediately!"
Because time was tight, Lu Xiangsheng's abolition plan was also very rough. He only left the strong men between the ages of 18 and 30, and all the rest were eliminated. As a result, the Imperial Association's cavalry, which had already reached 60,000, was reduced to only 60,000. Thirty-eight thousand people are left!
According to the original plan, the 38,000 people were broken up and divided into three banners. Lu Xiangsheng personally commanded the 18,000-strong imperial cavalry center banner, Mang Gurtai commanded the 10,000-strong left banner of the Guards, and Batu Ga commanded 10,000 people in the right banner of the Imperial Association Army. In addition, Zhu Youxiao selected 500 soldiers who could speak Mongolian from the Longya Guards and the Blood Banner Army and incorporated them into the Imperial Association Army cavalry as military police!
Although the number of the Imperial Association Army cavalry has been reduced after reorganization, their combat effectiveness has been improved. Not only are they all elite cavalry, but they can basically reach the standard of one man and two horses. In this way, the mobility of the Imperial Association Army cavalry has also been improved. Guarantee can meet the needs of cooperating with the Guards in combat!
The Royal Association Cavalry here has completed its reorganization, but Oba is feeling uncomfortable on the other side!
Having 30,000 people turned back overnight made Oba and Buhe feel as if a big stone was weighing on their hearts. You must know that this kind of thing means that they are not doing things well in a small way, but in a big way it is a deliberate shirk and deception. great sin!
So before Zhu Youxiao led the army to set off, Oba and Buhe ran to kneel down in front of Zhu Youxiao!
Looking at Oba and Buhe who were kneeling tremblingly in front of them, Zhu Youxiao said in a neutral tone: "Tuxie Tuhan, Prince Horqin, what's wrong with you?"?
Auba hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the Great Emperor, I have come here to apologize!"
Zhu Youxiao sneered and said, "Both of you are my ministers. I wonder what kind of crime you are asking for?"
There was sweat on Oba¡¯s forehead. He lay on the ground and winked at Buhe quietly. That means that you are also the emperor¡¯s cheap father-in-law. It¡¯s time to speak!
Although Bu He was unwilling to raise his eyebrows, he still had the courage to say: "Your Majesty, this morning Commander Lu Xiangsheng of the Imperial Alliance Army withdrew the 30,000 cavalry contributed by Horqin's tribe and ministers. He said that these cavalry were too old and weak to be used. My generation, I and Tuxie Tuhan came here to plead guilty for this matter!"
Zhu Youxiao pretended to be confused and said: "Why is this still happening? Are the cavalry you sent really so unusable?"
Oba quickly said: "Your Majesty, the Great Emperor, according to the rules on the grassland, any man who can ride a horse and draw a bow is considered a warrior, but Commander Lu Xiangsheng only needs to be between eighteen and thirty years old. Qingzhuang, this is really not because I am not trying my best, but because it is too difficult to gather 50,000 young and strong elites on the grassland. Please be aware of this, His Majesty the Great Emperor!"
Buhe also followed up and said: "Your Majesty, Tuxie Tuhan is right. There are not many people on the grassland. It is impossible to gather 30,000 young men with the power of the Horqin tribe. It is impossible for the two ministers to Most of the ten thousand cavalrymen have also been returned, please forgive me!"
"So that's it!" Zhu Youxiao pretended to be surprised and said: "I didn't know why!"
Auba and Buhe quickly kowtowed and said, "These are all crimes committed by my ministers for reasons unknown to me. Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"
"Everyone, get up!" Zhu Youxiao raised his hand with a smile and said, "I can't blame you for this!"
"Thank you for your grace!" Auba and Buhe kowtowed in surprise, then stood up and stood in front of Zhu Youxiao with lowered hands!
Zhu Youxiao added: "It's just that I am the emperor, and the export is the constitution. If you send 50,000 troops, you can't lose one. Now you have practical difficulties. What do you think we should do?"
When Auba and Buhe took a look, this matter was not over yet!
But they are also smart people, and they quickly bowed and said: "Everything will be subject to His Majesty's arrangements!"
Zhu Youxiao waved his riding crop and said: "In this case, I won't be polite to you. From now on, all men over the age of 18 in all Mongolian tribes must serve in the Imperial Association Army for five years. Good-hearted people who serve as soldiers should go to the temple and serve the Buddha for the rest of their lives! If there are those who are neither willing to serve as soldiers nor to serve the Buddha, then for the sake of resisting the decree, have their heads killed and their clan exterminated!"
After saying this, Zhu Youxiao ignored Oba and Buhe and rode away, leaving only the two of them standing there dumbfounded. They really didn't expect that the emperor Zhu Youxiao would be so cruel and directly killed all the Mongolian tribes. His lifeline is in his hands!
But these two people didn't know that in the later generations without the time traveler Zhu Youxiao, the Manchu Qing Dynasty was even more cruel to the Mongolian tribes. The Manchu Qing Dynasty directly restricted the number of men in the Mongolian tribes, and would send cavalry every few years. Traveling around the grasslands and executing the excess males, this is the strategy of "reducing males"!
Later, Bumubutai became the Queen Mother of Xiaozhuang and issued an edict to allow excess Mongolian men to become monks. Only then was the cruel "reduction order" lifted in disguise!
But even so, the Manchu Qing Dynasty also achieved its goal of controlling the population of Mongolia. This is what later generations often say "The Ming Dynasty built the Great Wall, and the Qing Dynasty built the temples!"! (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
