Chapter 191, the overall situation is the most important
Admiring the unique figure of the Loess Plateau and listening to the gorgeous songs brought by the strong wind, it also has a unique flavor.
The only regret is that it is difficult to see people within a hundred miles. People in the martial arts world who are very proud of themselves have no habit of carrying pots and pans. It is a dream to have a bite of hot rice.
In addition to dry food, it is barbecue. Whether it is flying in the sky or running on the ground, everything has entered everyone's stomachs.
Li Mu was very suspicious that after such a wave of sweeping, the ecological chain along the way would completely collapse.
If you don’t find the grassland cavalry quickly, the next meal problem will probably become the biggest trouble for this martial arts coalition.
In order to improve the food, the coalition forces have spontaneously spread their range of activities. Li Mu, the nominal commander, didn't know where his younger brother went.
If someone wants to work hard and live a life, he can just find a mountain to get a dilemma and keep "living" until the end of the war.
Of course, this possibility is very small. The arrogant martial arts people don’t look down on the grassland cavalry at all.
Many people will probably hesitate if they make them attack the large cavalry, but they will be slap and use bad moves behind their backs, and no one will be under pressure.
Feeling the murderous aura in the air, Li Mu said to the masters of various sects who were traveling with him: "It's not far from the main force of the enemy, and now we will divide our troops and move our own activities.
In order to guard the Han family, we must leave the invading Hu people in the northwest this time to let the Hu people know me..."
Before he could finish his words, Li Mu discovered a cavalry team of thousands of people in front of him galloping towards them.
The atmosphere was destroyed. Li Dazhen, who was originally planning to shout a few slogans, was left with only anger.
It was always the protagonist who finished performing, and the villain came over to die. Why did someone hurriedly send it to him just now?
Even if you want to provoke, you must at least respect your opponent. Send one or two thousand cavalry to come, who do you look down on?
Without the order from Li Dazhenren, some people in the martial arts world had already taken action spontaneously and were preparing to send these arrogant people to hell.
The prairie cavalry that rushed over had not yet rushed into the coalition forces, and what was greeted was a variety of hidden weapons.
Before I understood what was going on, the guy rushing in front of me was shot into a sieve even with his horse.
Even Chongxu, who had been kind and square in the past, had thick eyebrows and big eyes, had several stones flying out of his hands.
It can be seen that these two people still have some self-realistic identities. In the public eye, they are embarrassed to use vicious hidden weapons.
Of course, for the most powerful masters, there is actually no essential difference between stones and darts, and they can both kill people.
Compared to ordinary martial arts people, Li Mu's move is even more amazing.
The leaves, dust and gravel on the ground were rolled up, and under the urge of internal force, they were like a tornado, whistling directly towards the cavalry team. Wherever they passed, there was a crowd of people and horses.
Unfortunately, the shape is not very good-looking. If you can create a dragon of energy, it will be truly full of style.
Not enough erection is a small problem, the key is still to depend on the power. The cavalry rushing in front is frigid, and the ones behind are not much better.
When riding a horse, it is not that easy to stop. The one in front fell down, and the one behind collided again. The scene of the man leaning on the horse was so exciting.
Under the joint attack of many martial arts masters, the cavalry team was directly reduced by one quarter in just one breath.
The scene in front of me shocked the people on the grassland. They came to fight with people, not to find perverts to play the game of life and death.
The subsequent cavalry did not care about rushing forward and turned around to escape. Unfortunately, the disciples of various sects who had prepared for this time could let them go?
The close fight began, and the battle was completely one-sided. Li Mu became a spectator and had no chance to take action again.
With a small episode of giving away a head, the morale of the martial arts coalition forces, which were already grinding their fists and hands, became even higher.
The smile that snatched the head was open, and the self-reliance that he had lost face without gains. At this moment, he was secretly upset and could vaguely hear the scolding of the elders.
After cleaning up the battlefield, having a meal of roasted horse meat, the coalition forces officially began to move freely.
After throwing away the large army, Li Mu set his sights on the camp of the Khanate Army of the East Chagata, to be precise, he was searching for the Khanate.
The first battle not only requires people in the martial arts world to win, but also have to win easily. Only when everyone finds that it is easy to defeat the enemy, and there are still a lot of gains can they mobilize their enthusiasm to the maximum extent.
To do this, we must first dismantle the enemy's fighting spirit. The military strategy is not director Li, and his only advantage is that he can break the law with his strength.
As long as you find the command center of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate, Li Mu can play the king's assassination and take down the enemy's command system.
The country of Grassland Khan has never been peaceful, and there are many conflicts between major tribes. If there were no Wang Ting to suppress it, the following would not be able to turn against each other immediately, but it would be impossible to cooperate with the battle.
Unfortunately, Li Mu didn't know the senior leaders of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate at all. In addition, the language and customs were not clear, so it was not that easy to find the generals in the army.
Now it is only when the senior officials of the Taiwan Khanate of East Chaga and Taiwan hold a meeting and a large group of powerful people gather, which is the opportunity to start.
...
As the most favored by God, the imperial city ushered in the first snow since February. The howling cold wind and flying snowflakes made all civil and military officials tremble.
After experiencing a wave of earthquakes, I survived the winter when the rain had not fallen, and before I could catch my breath, I welcomed a heavy snow in spring.
Zhu Houwei didn't know what was going on outside. Anyway, the field he had cultivated was almost in decline.
It was destined to be another year of grain production reduction, but it encountered continuous wars. The Ming Dynasty, which was originally peaceful and peaceful, was forced to the brink of broken mountains and rivers.
The Mongolians' affairs of attacking the border were not resolved, and the Jurchens in the east started to make trouble again. Before the court could discuss a plan, the chieftains in the Yunnan-Guizhou-Ba Shu area launched another rebellion.
Now there are Japanese pirates in the coastal areas, causing turmoil in the southeast. If there were no martial arts factions in the northwest battlefield, the troubles in the imperial court would have been even greater now.
Of course, everything has two sides. The martial arts factions went to fight against the invasion of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate, but the public security in the inland deteriorated sharply.
Without these local snakes suppressing the local area, the bandits and bandits from all over the country suddenly became active, making the local government exhausted.
Faced with the complex situation, General Zhu Shou did not dare to take it lightly. He has been very at ease recently and has not made any trouble.
All the civil and military officials were a little uncomfortable, for fear that the emperor would hold back his ultimate moves, and they all dealt with them with fear.
After taking a look at the thick stack of memorials on the desk, Emperor Shenwu, who was already in a low mood, no longer had the desire to play.
"The house is leaking and raining all night." Natural disasters continue, and wars are causing continuous. More than two-thirds of the areas in the Ming Dynasty were forced to reduce taxes.
If it weren't for the fact that more than a dozen families had been confiscated a few years ago and the pockets were enriched. In recent years, the hidden land had been checked and the tax system had been rectified, and a lot of income had been increased, and life would have been too long since.
Even so, the Ministry of Revenue cries poor every day, while the Ministry of War is just the opposite - asking for money, food, and supplies every day.
In order to save the crisis, Emperor Shenwu has been attending court on time for two consecutive months, setting a new record for the time the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty has attended court in the past thirty years.
And this record is constantly refreshing over time. Many old masters in the court couldn't help but sigh in secret: The sky has eyes, and the emperor finally knows how to work diligently.
As the price of going to court, the number of times Emperor Shenwu was sprayed increased significantly. Especially after the big troll Wang Qiong entered the pavilion, it was even more out of control.
Of course, unlike ordinary low-level trolls, Wang Da trolls are still capable while squirting about people.
After entering the cabinet, Wang Yangming was recalled immediately and threw him away from Xuan Da as the governor. Then he went against the opposition and fooled the British Duke Zhang Lun to Ji Liao as the governor.
In addition to personnel adjustments, Wang Datengzi actively raised strategic materials while preparing for war, and constantly provided support to the frontline.
The effect is also very obvious. The originally shaky defense line in the northern border has been stabilized.
Of course, while stabilizing the northern border, the Ming Dynasty also paid a heavy price, such as: temporarily giving up the northwest battlefield; letting the southern border battlefield be left alone, allowing Duke Mu to struggle to support it in Yunnan.
This is nothing to do. Without a war-making weapon in your hands, it is impossible to cover everything.
At critical moments, the overall situation is the priority. First, defend the northern border and give priority to ensuring the safety of the capital.
After hearing the proposal of the Minister of War, Emperor Shenwu, who knew the soldiers, jumped down from the dragon throne: "Draw soldiers from the three sides to reinforce Xuanfu? Do you know what this means?"
This southern invasion of the grassland is not an ordinary grass-fighting valley. It is a battle for survival. For many tribes, if they fail, they will starve to death.
So much so that the Great Wall defense line was everywhere. Because the seven guards in the northwest were too remote, the court did not take into account the early fall, and in the end, the various factions in the world went to save the situation.
Now that the result has not yet come out, the troops from the three sides have to be drawn, which is equivalent to giving up Gansu, Yansui, Ningxia, and even Guanzhong will become a horse farm for grassland people.
Anyone with a little bit of military knowledge knows that once Guanzhong falls, it will not only cause the collapse of the overall defense line of the Ming Dynasty, but also the danger of being cut by the enemy.
Liu Hong, the attendant of the Ministry of War who was questioned, said without changing his face: "Of course I know!
By drawing troops from three sides to reinforce Xuanfu, the crisis on the front line of Xuanda can be immediately lifted, and it may even defeat the main force of the Oirat and reverse the strategic disadvantage of our dynasty.
As for the three sides, it has been affected by disasters every year in recent years. According to the data statistics in the sixth year of Shenwu, the number of Dingkou in Gansu, Yansui and Ningxia has dropped by 30% compared to 20 years ago.
With the natural disasters over the past two years, the actual situation will only be worse. The people's livelihoods in the three places have withered, and even if the Oirats are lost, they will not be able to grab much.
Anyway, the Eastern Chagatai Khanate has now entered Gansu, and the three sides cannot be defended at all. It is better to simply gather the troops and take good care of the northern border defense line first.
Zhenbeigong has raised a banner of recruiting troops in the northwest region. Although they are all new recruits, it is still not a big problem to use them to defend the city.
Even if we have drawn troops from the three sides and one area, Zhenbeigong, who has helped various factions in the world, can still defend the core area of Shaanxi.
After the danger in the northern border is lifted, the court will send troops to recover the northwest. For the sake of our ever-lasting foundation of the Ming Dynasty, please put the overall situation first!”
As soon as the words were finished, a large group of officials followed suit. Compared with the northwest, thousands of miles away, the Xuanfu, which was obviously close to him, can make everyone feel more aware of crisis.
It was not the first time that the Oirat invaded the south. During the last wave of Tumu Fort Incident, the enemy rushed to the feet of the capital.
If Yu Taibao hadn't been decisive enough and took timely response measures, and civil and military forces worked together to defend the capital, the Ming Dynasty might have been devastated decades ago.
One mistake can bring wisdom.
