Eight hundred and twentieth chapters finally send troops
With Zhu Yuanzhang's instructions, Xu Da led his army to attack until outside the capital, and was still thinking hard about the ambush.
Plans will never keep up with changes. Only the most outstanding generals can change their opponents and defeat them.
In Chen Feng's heart, he was only 50% sure whether the defenders of Datong could be dispatched. Chen Feng could win every time. One important reason was that Chen Feng's grasp of information was the most accurate.
That night, Xu Da was thinking hard about the ambush place, and Chen Feng received information from Shangdu and Datong.
In Shangdu, Tuhuan Timur had made up his mind to defend Shangdu, but it was unclear what the officials of all sizes in Shangdu City thought. What was the idea of the defenders in Shangdu City, and it was even less important to know.
In Datong, General Kuogu had made a decision to send troops and rescue Shangdu! However, it has not been decided when to go out.
Everything was the same as Chen Feng expected. Although they tried their best to conceal the news of advancing north, the Tartars were not stupid people. The imperial court's troops started to move, and the gathering of food and supplies immediately made them smell it. This was going to fight.
Needless to say, the court must be heading towards Shangdu.
Before the war, we had to try our best to hide the news, but in fact, the news had been leaked long ago.
The news spread like wildfire, which Chen Feng could have predicted, but it was a pity that this Tuhuan Timur had to defend Shangdu. At this time, he should take his civil and military officials back to the grassland quickly. Even if he followed history, it would be better than staying at Shangdu.
Since he stayed there waiting for him, he was embarrassed not to visit him.
After putting down the information, Chen Feng said to the commander: "Go to Chang Yuchun to send an order. Five days later, he will lead 30,000 cavalry to march to the northern expedition of Shangdu!"
Chang Yuchun had been waiting for this order, but now, Chen Feng finally gave the order and five days later, he would go to the Northern Expedition!
Chen Feng always felt that he was the hard work. When he came back to Dadu, he had to go to war before he could sit on the kang.
Originally, Chen Feng just needed to send Chang Yuchun to lead his troops, but after thinking about it, Chen Feng decided to go there himself.
After all, this is a great battle. Since Zhu Yuanzhang asked himself to capture Huantemuer, he must be captured intact. There are also 100,000 troops there. If Chang Yuchun is sent, maybe Chang Yuchun will meet.
I felt it was exciting, and then buried Tuhuan Timur alive. He always liked to do such things, and he never changed his mind after repeated teachings.
After staying in Dadu for five days, finally, on a bright spring morning, the defenders of Dadu came out again.
Those who walked in front were all cavalry in black. They were the black-clothed soldiers who had always been very famous in previous battles. Wherever they went, they would be rain of death.
The weapon in their hands is the extremely powerful three-eyed gun, which can be used as a sledgehammer, and has an advantage at both long distances and face-to-face.
Following behind were the Kilnshe cavalry. At this time, the Kilnshe cavalry were carrying the most advanced long-tube firearm, with a long range and high accuracy. After the Shenji Camp completed the replacement, the Kilnshe cavalry also changed to use this weapon on a large scale.
At the end of the team were carriages, which were consigned with food and grass, and there were also firearms such as the bowl gun and the hundred tigers. With these siege weapons in hand, even though they were cavalrymen, they were invincible to attack the city.
Such an army will have a sharp momentum as soon as it moves.
As soon as this army was launched, even the ants in Dadu were running around and telling each other. The army of Dadu finally set out to fight the Tartars!
Chen Feng did not intend to hide his whereabouts. Anyway, the emperor Tuhuan Timur planned to defend Shangdu, so they had to show the momentum of the army this time.
Moreover, their grand dispatch of troops was also a cover for Xu Da, making the Tatars think that their army was going to attack the capital, so the army of Datong should come out to rescue, right?
The Dadu army finally dispatched, and the news was soon passed back to Shangdu.
When they learned that most of them were about to dispatch their troops, they hesitated and received the emperor's firm advice and defended Shangdu! Since then, they have been worried in their hearts. What does it mean to defend Shangdu? Naturally, they are waiting to die!
Every day, they are scared, but most of them have not been moved, so they have to wait. This kind of waiting makes people crazy.
Now, the Dadu army has finally come out, which also indicates that they have less time left.
After coming out of the hall, every official's face was not very good-looking. The emperor's words were still echoing in their minds.
"This time, we must stick to the capital! We must gather and annihilate the Ming army under the city! This is a battle related to our country's destiny. I ordered that everyone,
At the top of the city, participate in the battle, we will live and die together with the city!"
The emperor's words cannot be violated, that is an imperial edict, but if they want to step onto the top of the city, it will be closer to death.
There is no eye on the sword. Many of them are civil servants and have never taken a sword in their entire lives. Now, if you ask them to go to the top of the city, isn’t that asking for death?
No one is in a good mood.
Yesu also felt his legs tremble, and he should have persuaded the emperor to leave Shangdu for a long time. He could not defend it at all. The Ming army's firearms could soon be blasted off the city walls of Shangdu. If he wanted to stick to it, it was impossible.
But now, what else can they do besides listening to the emperor's imperial edict?
When I returned home, I was so depressed that I took out my wine and drank it by myself. I didn’t know what I was thinking about when I was blooming in the yard.
"Sir, Lord Diebuhua asks for a visit." At this moment, a servant came in and said.
Diebuhua? The Minister of Rites? What did he do? Yesu said, "Let him come in."
"See the Prime Minister, the little man." Diebuhua walked in and quickly saluted Xiang Ye.
"Diebuhua, what's the matter with me?" Yesu said. At this time, he was not in the mood to talk nonsense with Dibuhua.
"Prime Minister, this time the villain came, there was something to ask for," Diebuhua said, and took out a box from his body: "This little gift is not respectful, please accept it with a smile."
If you have something to ask for, you must first give the other party a benefit. The box you hold in Dibuhua is a valuable gift.
Yesu glanced at him, and did not take the box, but said, "It's time. Even if you give me a mountain of gold, I can't take it away. What's the use? Let's talk about it first, what's the matter?"
Money and things outside of them are now guarding the city. When the city is broken, maybe no one can survive. Besides, maybe they will be killed as soon as they come to the city. Therefore, although Yesu likes the baby very much, he is really in no mood at this time.
Seeing that Yesu didn't answer, Diebuhua laughed dryly and said, "Sir, there is nothing special. Just today, the emperor ordered us to climb the top of the city. I want to ask the adults to arrange me on the west wall when they make arrangements."
As expected, I said that if these officials were asked to climb the city wall, if there was no additional assignment, then everyone would definitely go to the north city wall. Because the Ming army came from the south, the attack on the south would definitely be the most fierce.
Therefore, Thuhuan Timur asked the Prime Minister to arrange everyone's location. At this time, someone would definitely come to him and adjust a better place, such as the North City Wall.
In fact, Yesu felt that it was the same everywhere, because when the Ming army came, it would definitely be besieging the city on all sides. Perhaps, the city walls on all sides were the main attack directions.
It didn't matter at first, but, after all, why did you go to the city wall to the west? What's good about it?
This is really suspicious! Yesu's face turned cold and he said, "No matter where the city wall we are on, we are going to fight with the Ming army. Why do you have to go to the city wall to the west? Say! If you can't tell the reason, don't blame me for punishing you."
Everyone is in a bad mood recently. From the bottom of Tuohuan Timur, everyone is unhappy. Today, this is not a big deal, but now, Yesu is holding on and letting go, and then vent his anger first!
Hearing Yesu say this, "Pu" Diebuhua knelt down and said, "Sir, villain, villain is also ready to sacrifice his life for the country. He is loyal to the emperor and has no other intentions."
"Crazy." As soon as he knelt down, the box in his hand fell out and the things inside fell out. They were pills wrapped in rice paper, rolling out in all directions.
It happened that one of them rolled under Yesu's feet, Yesu picked it up, put it in front of his nose and smelled it: "Is this a big joy pill?"
I also quickly recognized this pill. A few years ago, Hama was powerful in the government and the country. At that time, it was the Great Joy Pill that bewitched the emperor. This pill was said to have been transmitted from the Western Regions and had a very good effect. It is suspicious that it makes people persist for several hours. It is definitely a good thing.
Unfortunately, Hama died later, and the pill was lost since then.
At that time, Yesu was just a small official. He had occasionally seen this pill, only smelled it, and never took it.
Thinking about how I haven’t had a happy life for a long time, Yesu’s heart was full of expectations. Before going to the city, I would be happy for a few times, and it would be a waste of my life.
