Chapter 669 Zhu Ying's Pingliang Mansion
It is a big event to dispatch a large army, especially when there were three great dukes and several marquises in this army, it seemed to have concentrated all the elite forces of the Ming Dynasty.
The Five Thousand Shenji Camp also has a hundred hot air balloons. In addition to the imperial guards around Nanjing, they almost drained the special forces of Nanjing.
This battle was devoted to Zhu Di's energy, because Hu Ye said that the lame Timur was an undefeated god of war, and he was also an undefeated king. Of course, this was his own self-proclaimed. He didn't expect that he had dumplings in Lingbi back then. If the Three Kings had not rescued him, he would have become a pile of bones.
Looking at a team of nearly 10,000 people, Zhu Di sighed in his heart. To be precise, this was his first battle since he ascended the throne. The battle before conquering Japan was not a tough battle at all.
Looking at the army, Baan Sanjin, who was in the academy, this guy sighed to the sky, why is there still a civil war in China now, and why has Ashikaga Yoshihito not taken down Kuramiya Mitsuhito yet? Such an opportunity to challenge the Ming Dynasty was wasted in vain.
Now the Ming Dynasty will dispatch 350,000 people to fight a war. If Japan draws troops to land in North Korea at this time, it will be able to take down North Korea in one fell swoop, and the Ming Dynasty will not care about it at all.
Yingxue also came to the city wall with her child in her arms. Looking at her husband's back as she left, tears flowed out of her eyes. Thinking about how many years she had been with Hu Ye, she had almost not much time to spend with her.
But she never regretted it. For nothing else, it would be enough for everything Hu Ye did to her!
"Mrs. Young Master, don't worry. The young master has five guards, and Uncle Qian is with him. Moreover, there are Shenji Camp and Flying Camp around him, so there will be no accident."
Sa Ren also comforted Yingxue. It turned out that after the unanimous decision of the Wuming Mansion last night, he sent the five generals to Hu Ye, and Hu Ye had to take them with him. Otherwise, he would break up with Wuming Mansion.
In the end, Hu Ye had to compromise and brought five master generals, including six of Lao Qian, the personal guards. Before leaving, he was despised by Zhu Neng.
Of course, Xiaoqiang and Wangcai were also following Hu Ye, which has become Hu Ye’s standard configuration, and they are all things that Hu Ye can’t rest assured.
"Where has the food and grass been reached now?"
Standing on the wall, Zhu Di asked loudly.
"Your Majesty, the food and grass have arrived in Pingliang. King An is sending people to collect grain in the territory. I believe that it has already left Pingliang and will reach Jiayuguan in less than a few days." Xiao Yingzi replied.
"Jiayuguan? It's almost time to reach Hami. King Anke Timur of Zhongshun now lives in Hami, and he has a different intention after all." Zhu Di frowned. To be honest, the Ming Dynasty was powerless in the jurisdiction of the Western Regions, especially after the civil war in the first few years, the national strength was severely consumed.
Zhu Yuanzhang ordered the attack on Hami, but was soon taken back by Anke Timur. After many years, this guy began to pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty. He was the last year, and this guy said he sincerely surrendered to Zhu Di. He was named King Zhongshun by Zhu Di and still ruled the Hami place.
"Issuing an order to make Zhou An, the clerk of the Ministry of Personnel, and Liu Xingshan serves as the chief secretary of the King Zhongshun, and Liu Xingshan serves as Ji Shan to assist King Zhongshun. At the same time, he gave them a secret order. If King Zhongshun has any other intentions, he can take action first and then report, so that they can set off immediately and catch up with the British Duke's army." After thinking for a while, Zhu Di issued a loud order, but he still said that if he was not in our clan, his heart would be different.
He didn't care much before, but this time he was careful. If the army of lame Timur did not stop and advanced eastward, he was sure that Enke Timur would rebel again and turn directly to lame Timur, and then attack Gansu and Shaanxi together. This has to be guarded against, so the imperial edict just now came.
"Emperor, according to the report of the Hou Musheng of Xiping, Annan seems to be a little restless, and the snail seems to be stepping up the training of troops." Jin Zhong suddenly came over to report. After all, this guy is now the Minister of War, and several major dukes have left, so it is up to him to take charge.
"What a clown to jumping, what's the point of asking?" Zhu Di sneered. Annan had only a few tens of thousands of people at most, so he was not as powerful as this lame Timur.
"Your Majesty, I am willing to lead an army of 20,000 to spread the peace south!" Jin Zhong said immediately.
"Forget it, you'd better stay in Nanjing to assist the prince. Let the Marquis of Xiping pay more attention to the movements of the snare. As long as he doesn't move, don't pay attention to him. Everything will be said until the army comes back." Zhu Di murmured, looking at the army's back, he turned around and walked down the city tower.
Zhang Yu took Zhu Neng, Qiu Fu and Hu Ye all the way north, passed Fengyang, Xuzhou, Kaifeng, and then went westward to Xi'an, Fengxiang, and Pingliang. Then he stopped to rectify and rest.
Fortunately, there are not many people, only about 10,000, otherwise they may not be able to get it in a month.
So when they led the army to Pingliang, it was already October and it was almost winter.
Hu Ye had no objection to this, but he had no idea about Zhu Di. As long as he could eliminate the 250,000 troops of Harry Sultan, he would be too lazy to use what method.
Zhu Ying has become very mature now. Although he has only been in Pingliang for more than a year, he has managed Pingliang well.
In the past, Pingliang was deserted and raging, and the desert was raging, and it also looked like a little in the main urban area.
"Thank you all the generals. I have prepared wine and food in the mansion to welcome you all!"
Under the city of Pingliang Mansion, Zhu Ying said to Zhang Yu and others.
"I'm here to be the king of An."
Zhang Yu bowed and then led a few people into the city. As for the army, they were stationed outside the city, waiting to march towards Jiayuguan.
Hu Ye looked at Zhu Ying. This guy has grown a lot stronger now and his lines are also obvious. Although he can't see clearly under the thick clothes, it's October, and the north wind is still very cold when it blows.
As for Zhu Ying, there were a few acquaintances standing next to him, all of which were recommended to Zhu Ying by Hu Ye, including Huang Yu, Qi Song and Lu Xun.
"Your Highness An, don't know what the battle is going on ahead?"
After entering Prince An's Mansion, Zhang Yu asked straight to the point.
"The Harry Sultan seems to be unable to wait, and is ready to move at the other end of the desert. Now, I am afraid that when the temperature drops sharply, I will cross the desert and head straight to Hami. There are also Anktemur, who seems to be moving, and is dispatching troops and generals. It seems that he is preparing to fight against Harry Sultan. In fact, he is ulterior motives, and he is afraid that he wants to rebel again. He may even lead his army to attack Jiayuguan." Zhu Ying murmured.
This guy is under great pressure now. Jiayuguan is ahead of him. He needs to be guarded against King Zhongshun and the Mongols in the north.
"You don't have to worry about this. The emperor has considered it and will send two chief ministers to King Anshun. If he dares to act rashly, he will destroy the Great Wall himself." Zhang Yu said loudly.
"How is the food and grass?" Zhang Yu asked again.
"I arrived at Jiayuguan five days ago. Because King Zhongshun's loyalty was suspicious, I did not let the food and grass move forward, but stopped at Jiayuguan and waited for the general to arrive." Zhu Ying replied.
"Can the army ahead gather?" Zhang Yu asked again.
"The 150,000 troops in Gansu and Shaanxi have been assembled. When the general arrives, they can gather in Jiayuguan within one day. Only the troops from Sichuan, Henan and Shanxi are ready to go. Now they should have already set off and will arrive soon." Zhu Ying also said as he knows it.
"good."
Zhang Yu roared, then picked up a bowl of wine and drank it all in one go.
Although this guy was a little dissatisfied before setting off, it was not easy to destroy 250,000 enemies. But once he set off, he was a soldier, so he had to move forward bravely and never give up until he eliminated the enemy!
That night, everyone stayed in Prince An's Mansion to rest.
As Hu Ye's student, Zhu Ying naturally wanted to visit the teacher, so this guy led Huang Yu, Qi Song and Lu Xun to where Hu Ye was staying.
"Director, how do I have built Pingliang in the past two years?" Zhu Ying said to Hu Ye with a hint of pride.
Hu Ye nodded and said casually, "It's not bad."
After hearing Hu Ye's words, Zhu Ying almost stumbled and developed to this point, but it was just pretty good.
"By the way, how are your fortifications in the north doing?"
Hu Ye asked suddenly.
"Dean, our main enemy now should be from the West, why should we pay attention to the fortifications in the north?" Lu Xun was a little confused, because he was responsible for the fortifications, and he was Ruan An's favorite disciple. Last time he followed Huang Yuqisong to Pingliang to serve Zhu Ying.
"The enemy in the West still has Hami. Jiayuguan is a barrier, and it is still hundreds of miles deep, which is not enough to be a basis. However, the enemy in the North only has Ningxia Wei as a barrier, less than a hundred miles. Even if there is a Great Wall, you must be careful." Hu Ye said loudly.
"Director, Mongolia is divided into three parts now, its power is weakened, and the emperor is joining forces with each other. Now they are restricting each other, so how can they have the energy to go south?" Zhu Ying smiled. It was because he saw this that he would spend his energy on the west side.
"Times are changing. You see, he is now divided into three, very weak. Maybe tomorrow it will form a force and go south all the way. You have to guard against the wars in the west from tomorrow. You just need to pay attention to Mongolia in the north, and you can even go north to Ningxia Guards to help the guards there and build the city walls." Hu Ye murmured.
This is his consideration. Although the Mongols in history will take several years to rise, it is different now. Now the Ming Dynasty has led a 350,000 army to fight against Harry Sultan. This will definitely accelerate the unification of the three Mongolian kingdoms. At that time, they will definitely take advantage of the situation. How can they do it if they don’t take precautions early?
"It's the dean."
Several people have experienced Hu Ye's power. Since Hu Ye told them not to care about Western wars, it means that Hu Ye is confident of winning this battle. Since Hu Ye asked them to pay full attention to the Mongols, it means that the Mongols are about to rise and must be strictly prepared.
"Then the students wish the dean a victory." Zhu Ying took the three of them to drink it all, although the cup was just tea.
Seeing that all his four students grew up, Hu Ye suddenly felt that opening a college finally had a phased victory. This was the first group of people, and there were still many talent groups in the future.
Moreover, Zhao Kuo and Liu Guan, the two strange men, also followed the army and would definitely be able to establish extraordinary achievements in the war with Harry Sultan. (To be continued, please search for Piao Tianwen, the novel is better, updated and faster!
