Chapter 114 Deploying troops and generals
Chapter 116: Dispatch troops
Xu Da has always been cautious. When he followed Lao Zhu and left his hometown to join the rebel army, he set his position very clearly. Even though he has made numerous contributions over the years, he has never been arrogant about taking credit.
Not only did he never take credit or be arrogant in front of Lao Zhu, but Xu Da also kept his position very upright in front of Zhu Biao and Zhu Xiongying. The crown prince and grandson trusted him, which was something he was proud of.
things, but it will not expand due to this.
The crown prince's trust will make him more respectful and make him understand that he must repay the emperor's kindness.
Zhu Xiongying led the army directly into the city. Daning is also the location of this expedition, and there are already countless military tents.
Countless officers and soldiers are also watching eagerly at this moment. Although they knew that the Emperor Taisun was coming before, all the generals have returned to camp. They have no such opportunity to meet His Highness the Emperor Taisun. Now they are all waiting.
After a while, the three-sided banners of the heroic general, the mighty general, and the emperor's grandson were raised, which was officially announced that the commander-in-chief of the Northern Expedition was in place.
Zhang Changping and He Zhongxian immediately waited on Zhu Xiongying to change his armor, and they fetched him a straight body armor with fine fish scales. Zhu Xiongying only needed to open his hands. This set of golden armor was the work of countless skilled craftsmen.
The total weight is estimated to be less than twenty kilograms, but its defensive power is pretty good. The most important thing is that this set of armor has different meanings. Zhu Xiongying also wears it more royally.
It's not that complicated, just like ordinary clothes, just put it on and tie it up. Then Zhu Xiongying put on the Zhenwu God's helmet and strode towards the outside of the camp with a saber in hand.
Directly entering the Chinese army's tent, Zhu Xiongying said in a serious voice, "Tonggu, order the general!"
Li Wenzhong immediately shouted the order, "Send the order to the general, and sound the drum to cheer the general!"
The next moment, a strong drum beat sounded outside the camp, and the sound was transmitted in an instant. The generals who had returned to the camp immediately became excited and rushed towards the Chinese army. After the three-way drum beat, they had to reach the camp.
.
Zhu Xiongying just sat quietly in the coach's seat, watching expressionlessly as all the generals in full armor entered the camp.
Not to mention that the military strength of the Ming Dynasty is now at its peak, and there is no doubt about the military quality of the generals. Zhu Xiongying's identity alone is enough to cheer up the entire army and not dare to show any slights.
There is no veteran who wants to embarrass Zhu Xiongying, and there is no intimidation. All of them are afraid that they will not be able to reach the tent after the first drumbeat, there is something else they are thinking about, or they are suppressing the three.
Arrive at the right time after the toms are played!
After the three-way drum beat, Li Wenzhong immediately clasped his fists and said, "General, all the generals should gather together."
Zhu Xiongying nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile, "Okay!"
Looking around at the generals in the tent, Zhu Xiongying said, "In this Northern Expedition, all the generals know your Majesty's intentions and the court's intentions. I don't want to say more, generals, please remember it well. This battle will be won!"<
/p>
Xu Da and others immediately promised, "Wonderful victory, ten thousand victory, ten thousand victory!"
Zhu Xiongying was a little excited, but he still said, "I will order the generals, and all the generals will return to the camp immediately. Count the troops and horses of the headquarters, and the baggage, and the Japanese general will patrol the camp tomorrow!"
At this time, many generals became excited. If the Emperor Taisun went to patrol the camp in person and saw the strong troops and horses, it would also be an opportunity to show off his abilities. He has already demonstrated too many abilities in front of His Majesty the Emperor, and now it is time to show off to the Emperor.
I have demonstrated my ability and level in front of His Highness Taisun.
Zhu Xiongying said slowly at this time, "Prince, the prince and below will all return to camp!"
Although they only came here in a hurry, most of them were not able to say a word to the emperor's grandson, and even their names were not known to His Highness. But there was nothing that could be done. The order had been issued, so it was time to return to camp.
p>
What's more, now that he is in the military, it is normal for the emperor's grandson to do this, and people in the military have long been accustomed to this.
The originally crowded tent immediately became a lot freer. After all, in addition to the six founding princes, the Ming Dynasty also awarded several princes one after another over the years, and these people basically followed suit.<
/p>
None of the founding Dukes of the Six Kingdoms, except Korean Duke Li Shanchang, came. Although Wei Duke Deng Yu died of illness, Deng Zhen, who inherited the title, followed. In addition to the later canonized Dukes of Xin Guo Tang He and Ying Guo Gong Fu Youde, these
He is also a truly elite soldier.
Looking at Xu Da, Zhu Xiongying asked, "Wei Guogong, this general has just arrived with his army. When will the front be gathered?"
Xu Da immediately replied, "In addition to the garrison in Daning, after I surrendered to Naha last year, I followed the emperor's order and began to organize the army. At the beginning of the first month, soldiers and horses from various ministries arrived one after another."
Zhu Xiongying nodded slightly and said, "For this expedition, His Majesty ordered the troops to send troops from Daning to Mobei. Since all the troops have been repaired and the forward army will go out tomorrow, what do the generals think?"
Xu Da has no objection. The army led by the emperor's grandson can be repaired for a few days, but many soldiers and horses have been repaired long ago. Don't say that they can go out tomorrow, it doesn't matter if they go out directly now.
After all, those people basically don't dare to neglect, and they have been preparing for war these days. If they had not waited for His Highness the Emperor, these people would have gone straight to Mobei and chosen to fight against the Tatars.
As long as His Royal Highness the Emperor Taisun does not go out immediately, it is normal for the vanguard troops to go out. As for the 300,000-strong army, they cannot go out in a swarm, they must go out one after another. This is normal.
Zhu Xiongying then looked at Zhu Fan and said seriously, "Prince Jin."
Zhu Fan immediately left work, clasped his fists and bowed, "The end will be here."
"Your Majesty has decreed that you will command the troops to garrison Daning." Zhu Xiongying said with great seriousness, "You will command the three guards of the headquarters and the Daning guards, and control the surrounding guards to guard Daning."
Zhu Fan did not hesitate at all, and directly accepted the order, "Promise!"
Zhu Fan had long understood the significance of his expedition. Before he even left for the expedition, his father, mother, queen and brother had issued orders one after another. The task of guarding Daning could only be undertaken by him. If anyone else wanted to
To seize this task, Zhu Fan must be anxious. He can only guard his eldest nephew's retreat.

It doesn't matter if he doesn't go to the front line, as long as he can defend his retreat. But this doesn't mean that he can eat, drink and have fun in Daning. He needs to pay attention to the situation on the front line at all times, whether it is to introduce troops to support, respond, or to prepare for a Tatar sneak attack or intercept
The army's retreat route, etc. cannot be careless.
Zhu Xiongying continued at this time, "His Majesty had previously decreed that the Duke of Song and the Duke of Ying would each lead a partial division out of Mobei."
Xu Da and Li Wenzhong were stunned. Didn't they say there were two groups of troops? How come there were three groups?
But they didn't object. Feng Sheng and Fu Youde's abilities were pretty good, so there was no problem if they each led a team.
It is also difficult to find traces of the Tatars in the vast grassland. It is normal for the three armies to look for traces of the enemy.
The most important thing is that there are now 300,000 troops. Even if 20,000 troops are left to garrison Daning, the court does not need to worry about the shortage of troops due to division of troops. Xu Da has already planned for this battle, and he feels that not to mention 300,000 troops.
Even if he is given an army of 100,000, he is still confident of taking over the small imperial court of the Northern Yuan Dynasty.
It has been said that this is a small court, but it is at the end of its war effort. The strength of these people now is far inferior to that of the Mongols.
Zhu Xiongying continued at this time, "Song Guogong Feng Sheng left Daning and entered Qingzhou, searching along the way."
Qingzhou, which is also near the future Balin Left Banner.
Zhu Xiongying continued to issue orders and said, "The Duke of Ying led an army of 40,000 people and searched northeast along the Khalkha River to the area of the Kherulun River."
Xu Da frowned slightly. There was no big problem with the emperor's grandson's will, because according to some of his guesses, the small court of the Northern Yuan Dynasty was nomadic in these areas. This is a characteristic of the Tatars.
Zhu Xiongying said slowly, "King Yan, you will lead the troops of your headquarters and command these two groups of troops."
Zhu Di was stunned, looked at the map and said hurriedly, "General, I would like to be the vanguard!"
Commanding two armies may seem majestic, but when the time comes, it turns into fighting against the two armies. The most important thing is that if nothing unexpected happens, I can only sit in the rear and cannot go to the front line in person.
Zhu Xiongying said with a smile, "The King of Yan controls the second army. If he wants to fight the enemy, he can choose the first army."
Xu Da and Li Wenzhong nodded slightly, and Zhu Xi and Zhu Fan couldn't help but laugh. This was a test of King Yan, allowing King Yan to make a judgment after leaving Mobei. If the choice is correct, he might be able to make an immediate decision.
Great effort. If you make the wrong choice and don’t have the courage, you will have no choice but to follow the two armies.
Zhu Xiongying opened his mouth with a smile and said slowly, "If His Majesty hadn't intended that King Qin should accompany the Chinese army, King Yan could have chosen to go all the way."
Zhu Di glanced at Yan Yi Yingwu's second brother. He was often dealt with by his elder brother when he was a child, but his second and third brothers also dealt with him. What's more, this is the will of his father, so there is no need to bargain.
In the final analysis, the second brother must follow the eldest nephew, and the third brother must guard the rear. In other words, he, the fourth brother, seems to be able to go out, but the two armies may actually only choose one.
This is because the eldest nephew knew his ambition. If he were tied to the Chinese army, Zhu Di would actually not be able to pick out any thorns.
Xu Da left the mission at this time and said, "General, I have been spying on the movements of the Tatars..."
Zhu Xiongying interrupted directly and said, "Wei Guogong doesn't need to think too much, the general will do his own research."
Xu Da suddenly understood that he was confident in fighting the Tatars. The most difficult thing in this war was actually to find the traces of the Tatars. During this period, Xu Da was indeed inquiring in many ways.
And now His Royal Highness the Emperor Taisun has decisively sent out troops and has a general direction. It seems that he has special channels to know the movements of the Tatars.
That's right, don't think that the Jinyiwei are just busy arresting people, they are also good at spying on enemy intelligence. Even though they are at war with the Tatars, there are still some caravans.
