Xiong Tingbi slapped the dragon's fart moderately, and then said: "Your Majesty can lead the Chinese army to press towards Kulun, while the ministers and others will divide their troops and lead light cavalry to squeeze the Mongolian tribes who are unwilling to surrender to me, the Ming Dynasty. Finally, the army will meet at Kulun , we will surely be able to pacify the grassland in one fell swoop!"
Zhu Youxiao smiled and said: "The Chinese army will be led by you, Commander Xiong. I will lead the Dragon Tooth Guards, the Blood Flag Army and the two flags on the left and right of the Imperial Association Army as the partial army!"
Xiong Tingbi and all the generals were stunned when they heard this. Only Cao Ling covered his head. He had just thought that Zhu Youxiao would do this, but he thought that Zhu Youxiao would bring the Guards, but he didn't expect that he would bring two guards. All kings join forces!
After a brief moment of astonishment, Xiong Tingbi also came to his senses and said quickly: "Your Majesty is the master of the world, how can you be a partial army? Your Majesty is better off sitting in the middle army, and the ministers who are responsible for the partial army will take care of it!"
Zhu Youxiao said with a serious face: "It's too dangerous to sit in the Chinese army. Does Commander Xiong plan to put me in danger?"
Xiong Tingbi was stunned for a moment and asked in confusion: "What do you mean by your Majesty's words?"
Zhu Youxiao explained: "As soon as our army enters the grassland, it is equivalent to being exposed to the Mongols. If Lin Danhan is not stupid, he will definitely think that I am in charge of the Chinese army. When the time comes, he will definitely gather his main force to attack the Chinese army, and the Chinese army will Infantry is the main force, and when attacked by cavalry, I am afraid that I will be in a dilemma. If I are in the central army at this time, it will make other partial divisions timid. On the contrary, if I lead a partial division outside the central army, we can attack Unexpected results!¡±
Xiong Tingbi felt that this explanation made sense, but he seemed to vaguely feel that something was wrong, but he couldn't figure it out for a while!
When Cao Ling saw that Xiong Tingbi had been bypassed, he immediately stood up and said: "Your Majesty, it's fine if you want to lead a partial army, but your Majesty should command the Guards instead of the Imperial Alliance Army. Only in this way can you ensure your Majesty's safety!"
Xiong Tingbi was suddenly alerted. It turned out that the problem was here. Zhu Youxiao only had 4,000 cronies with him, and the other 20,000 were the Imperial Army who had just surrendered. Doesn't this mean that the emperor Zhu Youxiao was placed under In the wolf's den?
Realizing that something was wrong, Xiong Tingbi also said: "Commander Cao is right. Your Majesty is a man of wealth, and you must be surrounded by trustworthy people. I ask your Majesty to command the Guards!"
Zhu Youxiao rolled his eyes at Cao Ling, shook his head and said: "This war is about the fate of the country. If all the elites are placed by my side, it will not be the most beneficial choice for the war situation. I feel that using the Guards as a sharp knife A decentralized arrangement can play a better role. As for my safety, you don¡¯t have to worry about it. With the Dragon Teeth Guards and the Blood Flag Army here, I won¡¯t have any problems!¡±
Xiong Tingbi wanted to persuade him again, but Zhu Youxiao stood up and said: "I still say what I said. This battle is related to the fate of the Ming Dynasty. I cannot destroy the overall situation just because of me. I have decided that there is no need to talk about this matter!"
Cao Ling rolled his eyes and said: "In this case, I sincerely ask your Majesty to allow me to continue to lead the Blood Banner Army!"
Zhu Youxiao understood that Cao Ling was still worried about his safety. He waved his hand and said, "I don't need you to take care of it. Ten thousand cavalrymen of the Guards will be commanded by you. In addition, Lu Xiangsheng's central flag of the Imperial Association Army will also be yours. The rest will be yours." The cavalry of the Guards will be commanded by Commander Li, and the border troops will be assigned by Commander Xiong!"
Seeing that Zhu Youxiao had made up his mind, the generals did not dare to say anything more. They all stood at attention and said: "I obey the order!"
After the pre-war meeting, Zhu Youxiao did not stay in Xuan Mansion. Instead, he set out for the grassland the next morning with the Dragon Tooth Guards, the Blood Flag Army and the 20,000 Emperor's Association Army who had changed their equipment!
This time, Zhu Youxiao could be said to have a vast ocean and a bird to fly. The 24,000 cavalry left Xuan Mansion and marched non-stop deep into the grassland!
The weather is now in July. The climate on the grassland is suitable and water systems are everywhere. It can be said to be the best hunting season!
Three days after leaving Xuanfu, Zhu Youxiao's army encountered the first tribe!
This tribe is small in size, with only two to three thousand people, but many of them are old and weak. Young people account for less than 40%, and there are almost no children. This is due to the bad weather in the past two years and the continuous erosion of the grassland by the Ming Dynasty. The result!
Bad weather and lack of supplies made it difficult for Mongolian children to survive. The Ming Dynasty's purchase of grassland slaves caused many young people to be bought into the Ming Dynasty. Only the old people were left. If it were not for the safety of the tribe, and reproduction, the 40% of young people may not stay!
Facing such a piece of fat, the two hungry wolves Mang Gurtai and Batuga showed fierce eyes. When they learned that they would follow Zhu Youxiao out, they were already very happy. Now they have ready-made achievements. , naturally he won¡¯t give in to the other party!
Mang Gurtai took the lead to dismount his horse and kneel in front of Zhu Youxiao and said: "Master, this slave is asking for orders to go to battle. Please allow me to do so!"
Although Batuga lost the initiative, he followed his lead and dismounted, knelt in front of Zhu Youxiao and said: "Great and kind master, please allow your hound to bring you fat prey!"
Zhu Youxiao looked at the two of them, pondered for a moment and said: "You go out to fight together, flanked by two sides, and fight quickly!"
Mang Gurtai and Batuga said in unison: "I obey my orders!"
These two people also regarded each other as their opponents. Without speaking to each other, they directly mounted their horses and rushed out with their own troops!
Li Tiezhu saw Mang Gurtai and Batuga leaving, and whispered in Zhu Youxiao's ear: "Your Majesty, they don't seem to be dealing with each other, they might do something bad!"
Zhu Youxiao smiled and said nothing. Qiao Wangjin said from the side: "The two of them have to work harder than the other if they want to get ahead. Anyway, the lives of the Imperial Alliance Army are worthless. The more they fight, the better!"
Li Tiezhu suddenly said: "So that's what happened!"
Zhu Youxiao just said: "This is the way to employ people. Some people I regard as my confidants, so I will be tolerant and adjust the relationship between these people. But some people are just eagles and dogs. I don't care what these eagles and dogs have in mind." , as long as they are brave enough and obedient enough, if one day the hawks and dogs are not brave enough and obedient, just cook them!"
Zhu Youxiao's monarch and ministers were talking here. Mang Gurtai and Batu Ga had already led their men to surround the tribe from both sides. The people of that tribe actually knew that Zhu Youxiao's army had arrived, and they were gathering the tribe members. The warriors who can mount their horses are planning to make a desperate struggle!
But facing the Royal Association cavalry led by Mang Gurtai and Batuga, all the struggles were in vain. With just a wave of impact, the warriors of that tribe collapsed. Half of the five to six hundred cavalry died, and the others They all fought hard to escape, not caring about the clansmen who stayed in the tribe!
A tribe without warriors is like a girl who has taken off her clothes. Mang Gurtai and Batuga rushed into their camp and stabbed anyone they saw. Although the newly replaced sabers were not so easy to use, they were sharp. To such an extent that all the cavalry of the Royal Association Army are satisfied!
Driven by the speed of the horse, a single blow of the knife can often split the whole person in half. This method and speed of killing give people great stimulation, making the soldiers of the Imperial Association Cavalry become even more crazy. !
Unable to carry prisoners, Zhu Youxiao acquiesced to the Imperial Army cavalry¡¯s massacre of this tribe!
When Zhu Youxiao¡¯s army left, only a burning tent and dead bodies on the ground were left behind, but Zhu Youxiao¡¯s army had nearly a thousand more horses!
This is the cruelty of war. Zhu Youxiao understands this very well, and he does not feel any guilt because so many people have died, because Zhu Youxiao knows very well that even in future generations, the world will not be peaceful. War and killing are The most common thing in the course of human history!
When the Mongols gained power, they killed countless Han people. Now that the Ming Dynasty has risen, it is not unacceptable to bring death to the grasslands. Anyway, in Zhu Youxiao's view, it is better to die than the people of the Ming Dynasty. Kill everyone else!
Of course, if one day the Mongols become the people of the Ming Dynasty, then Zhu Youxiao will take them on the road of killing other races. This is called those who obey me will prosper, and those who go against me will perish! (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
