Chapter eight hundred and eighty fifth: Daming goes against the sky: the north and the south fight together

Not many people know whether Li Jinglong has real information or not.

However, the real material of another person in the Ming army was soon seen by the Oirat people. After the Plate lurking in the Ming Dynasty sent back the news of the Ming Dynasty's southern expedition to the Indochina Peninsula back to the Oirat, Mahamu, the leader of the Oirat, saw this and thought that the opportunity had come.

The war in the south of the Ming Dynasty meant that the northern troops were reduced and they could only defend the front line. Mahamu thought that the Tatars had been defeated by the Ming Dynasty and had no strong and viable power, so he brazenly invaded the Tatars.

At the same time, some troops were sent to harass the Ming Dynasty border.

The one who changed defenses to the north with Xu Huizu was Zhang Fu, who saw the Oirat looking for trouble, had no good expression at all. He led the army out of the customs and ordered Jin Rong, the commander who was drawn from the Shandong Dusi, to lead 15,000 troops to chase the Oirat troops who were harassed the Ming border and throw away their armor and chased them hundreds of miles.

Kill one thousand enemies and seize one thousand six hundred war horses.

At the same time, Zhang Fu led a total of 60,000 troops out of the customs, including 30,000 Shenji Battalion, led by Zheng Heng, and divided his troops into several groups to launch a multi-line attack on the Oirat army that had entered the Tatar area.

Several fronts confronted the Oirat army.

Then Ola learned about Zhang Fu.

I also know about Zheng Heng.

Of course, I also knew that Jin Rong, who had driven more than 20,000 people to the Ola, ran around the grasslands with only 15,000 people.

For a time, the Ming Dynasty was in war, and for other countries in the world, they felt that Emperor Yongle of the Ming Dynasty was crazy. As long as the war in the north and south was delayed, the Ming Dynasty's economy would definitely collapse.

However……

The facts made the world dumbfounded.

In the war on the northern grasslands, the Ming Dynasty did not need any support for any troops. Zhang Fu, Zheng Heng and Jin Rong led a total of less than 80,000 troops, and fought with the more than 200,000 Oirat army.

And more wins, less loses.

Because there is Shenji Camp!

Of course, there is another reason. The two Tatar kings, Mo Nigan and Maerha, dare not be unfaithful to Daming. Under Wu Shengyou's lobbying, these two grassland kings also sent their few guards to cooperate with Zhang Fu to help the Ming Dynasty fight on the huge grassland.

In order to pursue mobility, Zhang Fu gave up his bulky artillery and used the Shenji Camp fire gun troops to cooperate with the cavalry and infantry to march quickly on the grassland. Therefore, the grassland cavalry, which was once a headache in the Ming Dynasty, became a stray dog.

In this battle, we will be completely convinced by the gains and losses.

Secretly lucky.

Fortunately, our Tatars had surrendered to the Ming Dynasty. If it were the Tatars in Mahamu, they would have lost the confidence to compete with the Ming Dynasty's heroes on the grasslands.

This is still the case where the leader of the Oirat army was Mahamu.

Mahamu spent a long time in Daming. Mahamu learned all the tactical and strategic ideas of the Ming Dynasty, and even Mahamu learned the tactics of the muskets.

But learning is one thing, the key is that the Oirat has no firearm troops.

This prairie hero was indescribable for this.

His troops obviously have an absolute advantage, and sometimes he uses tactics to cut the enemy into small pieces, but even if there are only eight thousand people on the other side, as long as there are one thousand of them, he will not be able to chew it down.

Maybe it can be eaten, but the price paid is extremely painful.

Because Mahamu really chewed it once.

Using the tactic of luring the enemy into depth and detour, Mahamu surrounded a 6,000 Ming Dynasty swimming force, including the Shenji Battalion of 800. Mahamu wiped out all the 6,000 people at no rush to kill all the 6,000 people, but the Oirat paid a heavy price of nearly 10,000 casualties.

This is not worthy of being called victory at all!

What made Mahamu even more desperate was that the captured muskets and ammunition were not enough for his armed forces. Since then, Mahamu no longer fought head-on with the Ming Dynasty and began to deal with it.

Then he looked for an opportunity, and while trying to hold Zhang Fu, he divided his troops south, trying to get into the pass and rob.

But even this strategic goal cannot be achieved.

Because King Yanping Maerha, we became the most loyal dog in the Ming Dynasty, and we were all from the grassland. No matter how Mahamu left, we could always find his traces.

Zhang Fu can also stop Mahamu in time based on the information given by Maerhazi, so as not to let him attack the empty Great Wall defense line—the defense line on the Great Wall is indeed very small.

The entire defense line has less than 20,000 troops, plus more than 20,000 Shenji Camp.

The Ming Dynasty is really short of troops now.

Because the maximum force has been tilted to the Indochina Peninsula, once the Oirat army crossed the Great Wall, it can reach Shuntian, and even robbed heavily in Shandong and Hebei, the Ming Dynasty could only watch.

So Zhang Fu didn't dare to be careless.

He must successfully suppress Mahamu, ensure stability in the north, and thus ensure the situation on the Indochina Peninsula.

So Zhang Fu, Zheng Heng and Jin Rong understand that they can't afford to lose.

If you lose, Your Majesty will really cut off their heads.

Mahamu obviously saw through this point, so he basically did not fight with Zhang Fu head-on in the later period. He took advantage of Zhang Fu's fear of his weakness in going south, and took advantage of the maneuverability of the cavalry to constantly intersperse and attempt to go south.

The Ming Dynasty was exhausted, so Mahamu found an opportunity to win Zhang Fu.

But Zhu Di did not blame him.

Only one death order was given to Zhang Fu: The war in the south has not been completed, and the north must focus on Mahamu. Victory and defeat do not matter. As long as Mahamu cannot enter the pass, everything is easy to say.

Keep it to me!

And it is clear that the north will not receive support from troops.

If you, Zhang Fu and Zheng Heng, lose Guancheng in the north, you will know the consequences in your heart. If I, Zhu Di, don’t kill you, you will be the sinners of the Ming Dynasty. What kind of face do you have to come back to meet our people in the Ming Dynasty?

Zhang Fu and Zheng Heng had no complaints.

Although His Majesty made it clear that there was no military support, in terms of food, grass and supplies, the official roads in the Tatar area were well built, and the "trucks" that were constantly transported to the grassland by the merchants in the dusk era, food, grass, baggage, ammunition and muskets, and even cannons could quickly replenish the northern army.

Therefore, although the Ming Dynasty's heroic army was exhausted, its combat power did not decrease at all.

The war in the north lasted for several months.

If it were the past, this war of several months would be enough to make the Ming Dynasty’s Ministry of Revenue cry, but this time there was no such thing. On the one hand, it was the policy guarantee of the Baochao currency of the Royal Bank of the Ming Dynasty, and on the other hand, it was the money that Zhu Di earned to the West to replenish.

The Ministry of Revenue even had the mood to reduce all taxes to several states in the south that suffered from drought!

The power of the Ming Dynasty made the Ming Dynasty officials who faced the dilemma of fighting in the north and south without any complaints, but were absolutely full of confidence, because the strength of the Ming Dynasty is something they had never seen in any dynasty.

The Han and Tang dynasties are not possible!

You must understand that the Ming Dynasty is supporting the war of more than 400,000 people at the same time!

Eighty thousand in the north.

In the south, at least 320,000!

In such a situation, the Ministry of Revenue did not call him poor. The Ministry of War even wanted to ask His Majesty with a smile if he wanted to recruit soldiers. If the Ministry of Revenue cooperated, we could recruit hundreds of thousands of new recruits in a minute.

In the 11th year of Yongle, the Ming Dynasty started a war when the north and south were connected with a mad attitude!

What shocked the world was that even in this case, the domestic economy of the Ming Dynasty was still booming and the people in China were not affected by the war at all.
