Chapter 525 The Lord of the World(1/2)
Guangzhou.
Taiji Palace.
"He is cunning."
His Majesty the Emperor sneered.
Yang Xiangguo's raid in Mobei was very successful.
It's just that the losses are greater.
He led 50,000 cavalry, including 30,000 Mongolian and Jurchen elites, and went north from Ningxia with three horses. He rushed two thousand miles in half a month, and finally raided the winter camps of various Khalkha tribes outside the banks of the Halaha River. The latter was caught off guard and had no preparation at all. In fact, they never thought that even in the most terrible nightmare, someone would raid them in the severe cold of more than 30 degrees below zero. This was completely unscientific.
As a result, the outer Khalkha tribes were surrounded and annihilated, and 10,000 were beheaded in the Battle of the North of the Desert, and 20,000 men, women, young and old, including Subadi, the leader of the outer Khalkha.
Numerous horses, cattle and sheep were seized.
but……
It's over 30 degrees below zero!
Even those Mongolian and Jurchens have strong cold resistance!
This is not a problem with cold resistance at all.
No matter how strong the ability to resist cold, the Mongols in the northern desert also hid in tents in the cold winter, and the Jurchens also hid in houses. The result of going out to storm was that they would mostly turn into ice sculptures, so even the Red Turban Army, a total of 7,000 were frozen to death and 10,000 were frozen to death.
In addition to the casualties in the battle, nearly half of the 50,000 troops were killed or injured.
As for the death and injury ratio of each unit is almost the same.
Although the Red Turban Army has poor resistance to freezing, it is because of its excellent equipment. It has special cold-proof clothing, namely fur cotton coats, and special leather tents. Mongolian and Jurchens themselves live in this place in winter. After all, the winter in Siping is not much warmer than the Mongolian Plateau. So whether it is Mongolian or Jurchens in the Red Turban Army, there is basically no difference in this regard. Yang Xiangguo is still worthy of recognition on the issue of equalizing a bowl of water, and the proportion of casualties is basically the same.
But there is a little difference!
The casualties of the Red Turban Army were just a recruitment order to go back.
The local reserves will revive the half-disabled First Cavalry Army in full blood within one month.
But the losses of the Jurchens and Mongolia may take decades to replenish. After all, their population growth rate is pitifully low, and they have almost negative growth in recent years.
"A good trick, if the Red Turban cavalry really wants to be wiped out, it will probably take 50,000 casualties to complete the weakening of each unit to this extent. Only a few thousand people were killed by this method, so each unit lost half of its life, and even gave Subadi in one fell swoop. More importantly, each unit had no complaints, after all, the Red Turban Army suffered no less losses than them. More importantly, Yang Feng really gave the money, and the living people would only cheer for him with the money he gave. As for those who were frozen to death in Mobei, no one would care about them, and the dead people could not speak, and they would die if they died. The living cheered for Yang Feng, and the dead people would only turn into dead bones in the grassland."
Xiong Tingbi said.
Indeed, dead people can't speak.
Those who are alive are cheering for Yang Feng.
Why not cheer?
Yang Feng gave them silver, one of the heads was 50 taels, and all of them were cashed out. King Ning himself rewarded 50,000 taels of silver, and the princes and dukes were 30,000. Everyone had a heavy reward for the remaining titles. Although Yang Feng caused more than half of the 50,000 army to be killed or injured, he took out more than one million taels of reward.
The disabled person was taken back to the mainland by him and arranged to raise livestock in various militia brigades.
After all, militia need to understand this.
Who else can understand better than these herders who have lived on the grassland for generations?
He raised his dead wife and children.
I will raise your wife, so you can die with peace of mind!
Then do it yourself.
At this time, Siam was the Ayutthaya Dynasty, and it was the so-called Nalaxuan Emperor's reign of the Ayutthaya Dynasty.
Their relationship with Myanmar can only be described in one idiom.
Immortality!
Mang Yinglong started to invade Siam and massacres everywhere, just like Japan invading North Korea, so what kind of feelings North Korea has for Japan and what kind of feelings Siam has for Myanmar was until after Nalaxuan's rise. The main reason was that Mang Yinglong died, and Mang Yingli invaded the Ming Dynasty in the north. After that, Mang Yingli was defeated and attacked the city again, but Nalaxuan finally defended the city. After Mang Yingli withdrew its troops, he was chased by him. Then Alagan broke the rebellion of the Mang family and captured Mang Yingli's capital and slashed Mang Yingli.
Now that the Ming Dynasty has captured Awa and captured Mangyingli's heirs, Na Laxuan, of course, quickly sent an envoy to express his gratitude.
The Mangshi is finished.
Siam's mortal enemy is over.
The tribute envoy walked into the Tai Chi Hall with a happy mood and knelt down in front of His Emperor, performing the grand ceremony according to the previous performance.
Then he offered tributes, such as ivory rhinoceros horns.
"Have Yonghan seen it outside?"
His Majesty the Emperor said majestic.
"Return to Your Majesty, the Daming soldiers killed the Mang clan and saved the Siam people. Siam has remembered the kindness of the Emperor of Ming for generations, and has been loyal to the Ming Dynasty for generations, and guarded Siam for His Majesty."
The tribute envoy said.
Of course he understands Chinese.
The big city originally relies on overseas trade.
Nanyang Company had a stronghold in Bangkok, but at this time Bangkok was a small fishing village, where Nanyang Company established a commercial stronghold, and then Nalaxuan relied on control and inland trade and purchased weapons from Nanyang Company to withstand Myanmar and counterattack.
"Since he is a loyal minister of the Ming Dynasty, why did he invade Cambodia for no reason?"
His Majesty the Emperor said majestic.
"Well?"
The tribute envoy was speechless.
"When I go back, tell the King of Siam that Siam and Cambodia are both ministers of the Ming Dynasty. If they rely on their strength to invade, wouldn't they be afraid of being like Yonghan? Nanyang was the former place of the Ming Dynasty. It was established as the Xuanwei Division to govern it. Later, it neglected to manage it, making all the countries in the South China Sea forget the power of the Ming Dynasty. Now I personally march south to Fengtian, which is to reorganize the South China Sea. Siam was invaded by Myanmar. I used the Daming Heavenly soldiers to capture Awa and capture the Yonghan Ming Zhengpai. If the King of Siam also bullies the weak and invade Cambodia, wouldn't they be afraid of the Daming Heavenly soldiers to capture the Daming Heavenly soldiers and capture the Siam as bright as Yonghan Ming Zhengpai?
I am the lord of the world, and the affairs of the world should respect my laws and regulations.
Japan invaded North Korea.
I will kill him.
Myanmar invaded Siam.
I will kill him.
Spain invaded Luzon, and I also tried to pacify.
I am responsible for my king, and you should respect the way of being a minister.
This time it was just a warning. If the Siam King refused to stop, it would be destroyed."
Wanli said.
"I will follow His Majesty's will."
The tribute envoy lay there and said carefully.
"You go down first. The court will preside over the division of borders with Cambodia. In the future, each of them will be cautious in keeping the borders and not invade each other again."
His Majesty the Emperor said.
At this time, Zhen La was called Cambodia.
To be precise, it is now the Phnom Penh dynasty. Just as Myanmar relies on invading Siam to live, Siam also relies on invading Cambodia to live, and then Cambodia relies on invading Champa, and there is no one to invade poor Champa.
After all, Vietnam is even more unaffordable to the east of the sea and the north of them.
In the end, he had to disappear.
But they haven't disappeared at this time.
Because of the Ming Dynasty's intervention, Chameng, which had been destroyed by Ruan Huang at this time, was retained, but Chameng was pitiful with a small population. After all, they were repeatedly massacred by the Ruan family, so the Ming Emperor personally sent troops to protect them. Originally, a trading post in the Nanyang Company was taken over by the emperor, and a governor was stationed there, and the trading post was named Saigong.
The Siam tribute envoy retreated tremblingly, but at this time he looked at Yonghan who was whipped outside, which was very dazzling.
"Governor, please follow me."
The Ministry of Rites waiting on the side said.
Another tribute envoy who was enjoying this scene turned his head happily.
"Publicly meet with the Dutch tribute envoy."
The eunuch shouted.
The tribute envoy of the Dutch East India Company quickly sorted out his clothes and hats, followed the eunuchs to enter the Tai Chi Hall in front, and then bowed to His Majesty five times and nine times according to the etiquette of the ceremony...
Originally, there were three bows. Yang Prime Minister responded to the rules of heaven and changed his mind. The ceremony of attending foreign vassals was to bow five to nine bows.
The Han ministers still bowed five times and kowtowed three times.
However, in fact, this etiquette was only a very rare time. For example, the first time I met in the New Year, I had already bowed casually on weekdays, and basically no kneeling. However, the formal etiquette was still five bows and three bows. As for the Prime Minister, because the princess and the state were not even considered the emperor, he bowed on formal occasions.
Sacrifice...
What kind of sacrifice is she an unmarried girl?
"What is your identity? The United Republic? The Netherlands? The Nassau family? Or the Dutch East India Company?"
His Majesty the Emperor said majestic.
"Well?"
