Chapter 590 Chen Feng leads the army

As a person standing on a high place, he will be very lonely.

For example, now, the idea proposed by Chen Feng stunned everyone, but they didn't know whether they should follow Chen Feng's opinion.

After all, this march is of great importance.

"Yes, Lord Chen said it right! Although the Tartars have been in charge of the Central Plains for decades, for them, the grassland is the most familiar to them. If they are under strong pressure, they are likely to run to the grassland." Liu Ji was the first to react.

"Brother Feng, do you think we should modify this march plan?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked.

Since Chen Feng proposed it, he must have a better idea. Zhu Yuanzhang was not sure whether Chen Feng was right just now, but asked Chen Feng for advice first.

"Brother Zhu, the early plan can be the same as what Brother Shan said just now. We marched into the cave, Henan, and seized Tongguan. However, at this time, we cannot continue to attack, but we have to stop and stay for a while for several months." Chen Feng said.

"Why is this?" Li Shanchang asked: "In this case, the Tartars will have enough time to mobilize their troops to stop us. Only by attacking quickly can we surround most of the people before the Tartars react."

"We just want the Tatars to respond, we just want the Tatars to mobilize their troops to come and intercept us." Chen Feng said: "We will mobilize all the Tatars' troops to us, especially the expanded troops, and even the defenders of Dadu."

When Chen Feng said this, Zhu Yuanzhang understood a little. Chen Feng's meaning was to lure the snake out of the hole. In order to eliminate the disaster in the future, he would do his best to defeat the Tatar army and make them unable to fight again. Otherwise, even if the nomadic peoples pose no threat and continue to harass them, it would be a very squeaky thing.

When Qin Shihuang was so brave, he finally relied on building the Great Wall to resist the Huns?

"However, in this way, it will still not be of great benefit to us when we fight the Tartars." Li Shanchang said.

Field battles are the best tactics for the Tartars. They fight against the Tartars. Although their own military strength is already very strong, it will still be a fierce battle.

"No, I guess, Feng Di's meaning is not to fight in the field, but to mobilize the troops guarding the capital. This will facilitate us to attack the capital, right?" Zhu Yuanzhang said.

It is worthy of being Zhu Yuanzhang, a military genius Zhu Yuanzhang, who has guessed Chen Feng’s plan.

"However, our path forward has been blocked by the Tartar army. If we do not defeat the Tartar army, how can we siege Dadu?" Li Shanchang asked.

This is the most critical thing that Chen Feng thought of.

"We take the waterway." Chen Feng said: "From Shandong, we took a boat and went directly to the east of the Metropolitan City, suddenly appeared there, and then surrounded the Metropolitan City and conquered the Metropolitan City!"

Waterway! This is Chen Feng’s unique trick. When he went from north to south to south of the Yangtze River, Chen Feng used this trick, unexpectedly.

Now, I will use the same trick again.

In order to prevent the army on land from advancing north, the Tatars would try their best to transfer all their troops to block them. The rear was empty, and through the Yellow Sea and the Bohai Sea, they could easily reach the shore. Then, the Bingfeng pointed directly to the capital!

At that time, the initiative will be in your own hands, and you will be able to conquer Dadu within a few days.

At this time, if the north and south attack, the Tartar troops blocking the south will be completely annihilated.

Zhu Yuanzhang could have thought of what happened later without Chen Feng’s description.

This strategy is a hundred times higher than the one we just made!

Even Li Shanchang, who was still suspicious of Chen Feng just now, admired him. Yes, this plan is really clever!

The most clever thing is that our side completely takes the initiative and mobilizes the Tartars' troops, turning the capital into an empty city, which can not only successfully capture the capital, reduce casualties, but also capture the Tartars' main forces in one place.

"Brother Feng's plan is very good. Let's follow Brother Feng's plan to carry out this action!" Zhu Yuanzhang said.

"Your Majesty, even if we follow the current plan, we may still have to mobilize at least 200,000 troops. In order to win the victory over the Kuogu army in the field, our number must not be too small." Li Shanchang said.

This time I came to find Chen Feng, but in fact, I mainly invited Chen Feng to send troops together. In fact, Chen Feng mentioned in his plan that he wanted to take the water route, so naturally, he would also send troops.

However, it is still unknown how many soldiers Chen Feng can produce.

Zhu Yuanzhang was embarrassed to say it himself, so Li Shanchang raised his head here.

"Yes, but now, even if we do our best, we can dispatch up to 150,000 troops." Zhu Sheng said from the side.

"Brother Feng, this Northern Expedition is related to our complete defeat of the Tartars and the restoration of our Han people. Now, our military strength is still insufficient." Zhu Yuanzhang said.

"Brother Zhu, I have mobilized Chang Yuchun's army. In two days, he should be able to return to Pingjiang and mobilize 20,000 defenders from other places. Therefore, I can gather 50,000 troops, including 30,000 cavalry and 20,000 infantry." Chen Feng said: "In addition, I will also mobilize the navy and let them wait in eastern Shandong so that at the right time, I can carry our soldiers and go to Dadu by water."

In fact, it is considered to be a sea-going ship, and Chen Feng also plans to mobilize the sea-going ships to transport cargo again. Of course, it is necessary to send several naval warships to escort.

Although you are walking on the sea, the wind and waves of the Yellow Sea and Bohai Sea have always been very small. If you move along the coastline, you will not encounter too much risk in the middle.

In fact, if Chen Feng got together, he would be fine if he had 70,000 or 80,000 troops. Anyway, the south has been pacified now, and there is no use for retaining too many defenders from all over the country. At best, it would be a bandit suppression or something.

However, if there were too many troops, I was afraid that Zhu Yuanzhang would be concerned about it, so Chen Feng had to take this measure.

When everyone heard Chen Feng say that he could dispatch 50,000 troops, especially 30,000 cavalry, the others showed excited expressions on their faces. It seemed that this was very close to their expectations.

"I will be the chief general of Chang Yuchun and Chang Ju as the deputy general, and obey Brother Zhu's orders." Chen Feng said.

This action is different from before. Although it was considered to be a joint action in the past, each attacked and had no intersection with each other. Now, it is the Northern Expedition, which requires unified action.

Since Chen Feng had left the army, he might as well hand over the command. After all, this Northern Expedition was a very important operation.

Moreover, it was not realistic for Zhu Yuanzhang to use this action to consume his own strength, because at this time, Chen Feng's army had very strong combat power, especially those firearms that had made many great achievements, which had already been equipped with a large amount of equipment. Even if Chang Yuchun himself faced Kuogutemur, Chang Yuchun would not be afraid.

"Our side will include General Xu Da as the main general and Zhou Dexing as the deputy general." Li Shanchang said, this is a plan that has been agreed upon long ago.

Commanding the 200,000 army and carrying out the Northern Expedition is the most important military operation on our side. At the same time, it will also be an action that will make the commander famous in history and will leave a strong mark in history books.

"Brother Feng, I have a heartless request." At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang spoke.

"Brother Zhu, please speak." Chen Feng said. If Zhu Yuanzhang felt that he had not sent enough personnel, then gritted his teeth and gathered 10,000 troops out.

"Brother Feng, we will fully adopt your opinion on this marching plan. So, for this command, you are the most familiar with it. I wonder if you can go on the expedition in person and be the commander of this Northern Expedition army?" Zhu Yuanzhang said.

After Zhu Yuanzhang finished speaking, everyone suddenly became quiet, as if the temperature suddenly dropped.

Zhu Yuanzhang's subordinates dispatched 150,000 troops, and Chen Feng only paid 50,000 troops. In any case, Chen Feng did not expect that Zhu Yuanzhang would let him command this army.

That's equivalent to Zhu Yuanzhang handing over the sword in his hand to Chen Feng. He wasn't he afraid that Chen Feng would come back with a Chenqiao mutiny?

Although this could not happen, Zhu Yuanzhang was still a little shocked to say this.

"Prince, the Northern Expedition is of great importance. Can we make a long-term plan for the people leading the army?" Zhu Sheng said on the side.

If Zhu Yuanzhang said it with a fever, it would be difficult to repent in the future. So, after Zhu Sheng said it, Li Shanchang also said: "Yes, prince, leading the Northern Expedition is not a joke."

Chen Feng was not angry when he heard these people's words. He knew that these people would definitely object. On the contrary, Chen Feng really admired Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Everyone, do you think there is a more suitable candidate than Fengdi?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked.

Xu Da? Although Xu Da also won many victories, Xu Da was still compared with Chen Feng.

From the great defeat of Gaoyou Mansion, to the attack on Yangzhou and Taizhou, to the south and fighting Chen Youliang, every battle was an absolute victory and an absolute classic battle. Until now, even Xu Da is still constantly studying the battles fought by Chen Feng.

It seems risky, but in fact, it is all the result of repeated measurements. Although I am reluctant, I have to admit that Chen Feng is indeed a genius in war.

Just the plan just now, the plan of everyone present was better than that.

Putting aside other factors, what Zhu Yuanzhang said was indeed a suitable choice to let Chen Feng lead the army. Chen Feng was definitely the most beautiful one in the battle.
