The fall of the Korqin tribe caused shock to the Mongolian tribes on the grassland. How to choose between the Ming Dynasty and the Later Jin Dynasty? As long as you are not blind and fools, you can make the right choice.

This is also the main reason why Zhu Youxiao wanted to send troops to help, destroying Korqin, who was dependent on the Later Jin Dynasty, dispelling the fantasy of the fence faction, and completely isolating the Later Jin Dynasty.

It can be said that this operation was a great success. The only Korqin who truly relied on the Later Jin Dynasty was destroyed, and the Five Neikhalka Alliance, which was on the fence, completely turned to the Ming Dynasty.

As for the annihilation of 5,000 Jiannu and capturing Amin and other senior officers of the Later Jin Dynasty alive, it was an unexpected surprise for Zhu Youxiao.

The envoy who received the victory was rushing to the capital as fast as possible. The victorious army also returned to Guangning and temporarily rested in Tuanshan Fort.

In addition to eliminating the five thousand Jiannu cavalry, the Ming army also suffered more than 2,000 casualties.

If Amin hadn't thought he had chosen to retreat smartly and was blocked by the Ming army with his position and muskets, the Ming army's casualties might have been greater.

The Mongolian coalition also suffered a certain amount of casualties, especially the most dedicated Zarut troops, but they also got more.

The seized war horses, armor and weapons were agreements reached with the Ming army, and there were also the vast pastures of the right-wing central banner of the Korqin wing and the left-wing central banner of the later generations, as well as the herdsmen on the pastures.

It was precisely because of the efforts of the Zarut army that the Ming army designated this area to the Zarut army as a buffer warning for northern Guangning.

The other pastoral areas of the Korchin tribe were taken over by the Chahar tribe. But in fact, the Chahar tribe only left a small number of troops to station in the city of Grejurgen, and most of the pastoral areas and herdsmen were annexed by the inner Kharkha tribes.

After the split of the spoils, the Ming army seemed unwilling to take care of the grassland situation, so they only favored the Zarut tribe, and the meaning of support was obvious.

For the Zarut tribe, not only did the quota for the market transactions be increased, but the son of the leader Ann An was also allowed to go to the capital to participate in the offering of prisoners.

It can be said that this attitude of the Ming court was a real protection for the Zarut tribe and a disguised incentive for other Mongolian tribes.

Lin Danbatu's ambitions of "Anne" are becoming more and more obvious. In addition to the Ming Dynasty, the Later Jin Dynasty is the Later Jin Dynasty. But judging from the current strength and situation of the Later Jin Dynasty, even the Korqin tribe cannot be saved. Who is stupid to surrender?

The combat power shown by the Ming army in attacking Glejurgen City and annihilated Amin's troops on the one hand shocked the Chahar tribes, and on the other hand made it easier for the Mongolian tribes to make choices.

With the Ming army under his command, the Later Jin Dynasty was not afraid, and Lindan Batuer would not easily become enemies with the Ming army. The idea of ​​the Mongolian tribes was so simple and so practical.

People are practical, and this is an unquestionable conclusion. If you cannot show your strength, who will follow you? If you cannot eat delicious food, who will work hard for you?

It is precisely because of this insight and putting it into practice that Zhu Youxiao was able to firmly sit in the dragon throne, and the strength of the "Imperial Party" also expanded rapidly.

There is no way, who made him a time traveler, who made him firmly believe that he is right, the truth is in his hands, and only by following his guidance can the Ming Dynasty regain its strength?

Those who support yourself must also be promoted and reused; those who question and oppose yourself must be no matter how talented you are or how noble your character is, you cannot use it with confidence.

Of course, it is also an applicable principle for Zhu Youxiao to make full use of his talents and use his products.

For example, Yang Lian did a good job as the governor of Henan. He was a stubborn person, such as vassals, powerful people, and gentry, who violated the national law, were all selfless.

As for the memorials submitted, Zhu Youxiao was very fond of Mingfa, and those who didn't want to listen were kept. He pretended that he didn't see them or heard them.

Zuo Guangdou also has the same principle of handling it. Do your water conservancy well in Shaanxi and don’t get involved in the affairs of the court. Shaanxi has done it almost, so he will be appointed as the river patrol envoy to inspect and supervise the construction of water conservancy facilities in various places!

There is also Li Banghua, the backbone of the Donglin Party, who took over as the governor of Tianjin who was Bi Ziyan, who worked diligently, making Tianjin gradually become the largest seaport in the north, laying a solid foundation for the transportation of grain in the south and the north.

It is precisely because the officials are not distinguished by labels, and the use of factories and guards, and the corrupt officials cleaned by the Inspectorate will not cause too much public opinion.

The crime is conclusive, but it is dealt with very severely. Compared with Taizu's skin and grass, he was beheaded at 60 taels, which is not "brutal" enough.

But Zhu Youxiao's severe punishment and punishment of corruption is no worse than that of Zhu Taizu. What is the reason?

In fact, it is very simple. If a corrupt official commits a crime, the whole family will be in trouble and exil to a remote place for a lifetime. It will not be much better than beheading immediately.

Zhu Youxiao used this cruel and inhumane method, but the shocking power was extraordinary.

Aren't you greedy? In the end, you searched your house and left nothing for you. You also made your parents, brothers, wife and son suffer.

For more than a year, Zhu Youxiao has been adhering to such severe torture. Not many people have killed them, but the corruption and corruption have basically stopped.

The so-called stopping means that there are fewer corrupt officials who have been punished, but they still need to dig deep, pursue and persevere.

Don’t think that everything will be fine if you retire and return home. Don’t think that this is just a gust of wind. During my reign, the crackdown situation will not change.

"I thank Your Majesty for your kindness." Sun Chengzong knelt down and kowtowed, and was immediately helped up by the emperor's orders to the palace servants.

"Shi Sun is flat and grants a seat." Zhu Youxiao was very happy. Liu Xingzuo was basically a great success anyway. He was on the way to the capital. The foundation in southern Liaoning was stable and the situation was very good!

The welfare benefits to officials - heatstroke prevention subsidies, are also implemented. Others are not qualified to thank them in person. Only when Sun Chengzong reports on military affairs can he have this opportunity.

Sun Chengzong was also very excited. Although the situation in Liaodong has been getting better, it has only been reversed until now. Jiannu is full of enemies, and except for hiding, there seems to be no good plan.

However, what surprised him was that the emperor was still as stable as an old dog. Not only did he not urge the war, but he took the initiative to order the troops to rest.

According to Sun Chengzong's understanding of the emperor, he knew that this was starting to hold back his ultimate move. Based on the current production speed of the military industry and transportation capacity, at most half a year, after each department had sufficient food and ammunition, he would definitely take some major actions.

In fact, Sun Chengzong did not know the emperor's whole thoughts, nor did he know why he was so calm.

The current situation in the Later Jin Dynasty is indeed very bad, but it is not much worse than the lowest point in history.

At the beginning of Huang Taiji's ascension to the throne, the Ming army had Ningyuan Jiancheng in the west and the Pi Island Mao Wenlong in the east. North Korea was also hostile, and Mongolian tribes were in the northwest, and Solon tribes were also in the north.

Moreover, the Later Jin Dynasty encountered a great famine shortly afterwards. If Lord Yuan had not sold grain to the Mongolians, the Later Jin Dynasty would have been hungry.

Therefore, Zhu Youxiao did not underestimate the current disadvantages of the Later Jin Dynasty. He did not urge the war to fight, but instead accumulated strength and prepared to attack the Later Jin Dynasty again.

If you don’t urge the war, you won’t stop the war completely. Zhu Youxiao also had a secret order, asking the southern Liaoning, the headquarters of the Dongjiang River, and Xiong Tingbi in western Liaoning to harass him and fight in turn, so that the Later Jin Dynasty could not calm down.

As for another large-scale counterattack, Zhu Youxiao initially set the transition from winter to spring. On the one hand, it is conducive to the Liaoxi army passing through Liaoze; on the other hand, the equipment of the Ming army should be replaced, and the grain and ammunition reserves also support large-scale military operations.

Another point is that based on historical knowledge and the information collected, the Later Jin Dynasty's grain reserves are already very small and even exhausted.

The fall of southern Liaoning and the harassment and burning fields that the Ming army in autumn will greatly accelerate the arrival of the famine in the Later Jin Dynasty.

As long as the famine occurs, the situation of the Later Jin Dynasty will be very bad. With the efforts of all directions, it is very likely to defeat the Later Jin Dynasty to half-destroy.

Moreover, the chaos within the Later Jin Dynasty is also a high probability of it. This depends on the role of Nara Zhongming. The most fatal thing is that the surrender of the barbarians will not gather people's hearts and the factions of the Later Jin Dynasty cannot unite.

Therefore, Zhu Youxiao had to strive for victory with stability, waiting for his own combat power to increase and the enemy's weakness to launch a large-scale move.

If you are too hasty, if you lose, you may give the Later Gold a chance to breathe.

Now the Ming army in the three sides is pressing forward, which has also made up for the weaker allies of North Korea and Mongolian tribes. This has made the Later Jin Dynasty have to deal with it with all its strength and cannot get out to steal the Mongols' cattle, sheep and horses, as well as North Korea's food population.

The food and food resources are almost exhausted and cannot be looted for replenishment. It is predictable what kind of blow the Great Famine will cause to the Later Jin Dynasty.

After Sun Chengzong sat down, he wrote the compiled military newspapers one by one, especially talking about Liu Xingzuo, asking for instructions on how to deal with it.

Regarding Liu Xingzuo who returned to the Ming Dynasty, Sun Chengzong believed that it was correct to be kind to the officials. However, he had reservations whether he could believe it.

In other words, Teacher Sun wanted to keep Liu Xingzuo in the capital and give him a nice and false official position, but not actually military power. To put it bluntly, he just kept it well for outsiders to see.

Zhu Youxiao did not make a final decision on this. In his opinion, it was safe to do so, but it was distrust and could not achieve his goal.

Of course, history is history, and he also has to look at Liu Xingzuo and inspect it before he can decide whether to reuse it.

In addition to Liu Xingzuo's placement, it was the secret arrangement that the emperor wanted to summon Xiong Tingbi and Mao Wenlong to the capital to meet with the report.

Sun Chengzong believed that the meeting should be held separately, and the time was more appropriate in autumn. Zhu Youxiao had no objection to the time, but he did not agree to the arrangement of the meeting separately.

"I know that Sun Shi is worried that Xiong and Mao are not in harmony." Zhu Youxiao slowly said his reasons, "But the plan to pacify Liao, the generals are not in harmony, and the army is distracted is a taboo. Liao Town and Dongjiang Town are the main force of pacifying Liao. If you cannot unite sincerely and work closely together, you will eventually ruin big things."

Sun Chengzong was indeed a little worried. In his opinion, under the current situation, it was time for Xiong Tingbi and Mao Wenlong to replace one.

Of course, he was more optimistic about Xiong Tingbi, who was a civil and military talent, and was not very fond of Mao Wenlong, a general who was born in a wild way.

"If Xiong Tingbi and Mao Wenlong can work together and unite with sincerity, wouldn't it avoid the disadvantage of changing generals at the last minute?" Zhu Youxiao did not reject Sun Chengzong's proposal, but did not agree with it rashly.

History has proved that the battle situation in Liaodong has been worse and worse, which is largely due to the frequent replacement of people by the court.

Xiong Tingbi's first rule in Liaodong had already suppressed the momentum of the Later Jin Dynasty. If it were not for the civil servant Yuan Mingtai, Liao Chen might not have been lost.

When Lao Xiong came out for the second time to clean up the mess, the civil servant group created Wang Huazhen to separate power and restrain him. If the emperor had not taken decisive action, the tragedy of history would have happened again.

Now, after several defensive counterattacks, the situation in Liaodong has reversed, which also means that the great cause of pacifying Liao has entered a critical stage. If the goal can be achieved without changing generals, it is naturally the best choice.

The key is that there are no suitable candidates for the change of generals. Although there are many senior generals, they are either unfamiliar with Liaodong and Jiannu, or they are not qualified enough and difficult to convince the public.

Anyway, Zhu Youxiao felt that he could replace Xiong Tingbi or Mao Wenlong, except for Teacher Sun and Teacher Yuan, he really couldn't reassure him. Even Teacher Sun was barely qualified in his mind.

"Long live and be cautious, I admire you." Sun Chengzong did not have too strong points. After all, there was no final decision. If the emperor said, Xiong and Mao could give up their past grudges, it would be the best.

Zhu Youxiao waved his hand and said, "Mr. Sun doesn't have to be like this. I am still young and have some inadequate considerations. I need old ministers like Sun and Yuan to support and advise and correct them."

After pausing, the emperor continued: "The Ministry of War will choose Jin Town, Deng Town's naval generals and officers and soldiers, and the work of forming the Liaodong naval division is to be done with the trouble of the army, and we will complete it quickly."

The Liaodong Navy sounds very famous, but it is actually an inland water navy dominated by rivers such as the Liaohe River and Hunhe River.

The preliminary work after the establishment is transportation to save land expenses. After familiarizing with the river navigation, it will also become the main auxiliary force for attacking Jiannu.

"The Ministry of War has entered Wenjin Town and entered the town. They will select naval generals and dispatch officers and soldiers and ships." Sun Chengzong hurriedly bowed and replied: "In addition, we will also select soldiers familiar with geography from Liao Town and Dongjiang Town to build a naval army together."

Zhu Youxiao nodded and said, "Master Sun knows that the importance of the Liaodong Navy is not only about transporting materials, but also about fighting against Jiannu in the future, which is very important."

"I understand." Sun Chengzong bowed and replied.

Zhu Youxiao pondered for a moment and reminded: "The matter of transferring Xiong Tingbi and Mao Wenlong back to Beijing to report their duties must be kept confidential. I decided to go through the secret procedures and not go to the Ministry of War to write."

Sun Chengzong thought about it and bowed to agree helplessly.

Although this is not very suitable for the procedure, Sun Chengzong is not a pedantic person. He knows that keeping confidentiality is to prevent Jiannu from knowing it, and it is also the best choice to start from the overall situation.

The command of the two major corpses in western Liao and Liaodong left the front line, which was definitely an opportunity for Jiannu to take advantage of. If he used this to launch, there might be trouble if he had no leader.

Of course, Xiong Tingbi and Mao Wenlong came to Beijing to report their duties and would definitely arrange for someone to replace him temporarily. Dongjiang Town may be Gou Zhenhuai or Chen Jisheng, and Liao Town probably He Kegang or Ma Chengfei.

After the two reported their duties, they would also return to each division before the river was frozen, so that Jiannu would not have an opportunity to take advantage of it, and also make arrangements for counterattack operations in advance.
