NOVEL FROG Chapter 89
89: Zhu Yuanzhang: The wolf lives in Mount Xu? That was just the novice village of Longxi, the emperor's old village.
The only way from Tianshui Pass to the Hexi Corridor.
In order to conduct business with the Western Regions, Zhu Li also established a warehouse in Longxi County specifically for the transfer of goods sold to the Western Regions.
For this reason, Zhu Yue specifically asked Liu Shan to arrange for three thousand Hanzhong troops to guard the area.
If some unscrupulous people come to grab the goods, Tianshui Pass not far away can also quickly send troops to increase the number of people!
Zhu Li doesn’t need to worry about safety issues.
In the words of later generations, it was equivalent to a duty-free zone.
After all, outside the customs, the court had no control over it. As long as Zhu Yue had people transport ready-made goods to Longxi in advance, he could trade with Hu merchants in the Western Regions at any time.
Of course, Zhu Yue also has his own caravan, and it is more convenient to travel between Longxi and other countries in the Western Region.
After Longxi is Lanzhou and other places, which is also one of the most chaotic areas in the Hexi Corridor.
Because most of the caravans that wanted to trade with the Ming Dynasty basically passed through here.
Therefore, whether it is a small country in the Western Region or a nearby Wala people coming from Yinchuan, they will appear in this area from time to time for the purpose of robbery!
Those caravans accompanied by large groups of guards or teams traveling to and from the Ming Dynasty under the guise of missions would often be robbed. After all, the Wala people were famous for their style.
It seems like they don’t even know how to survive if they don’t rob!
Since Hanzhong Mansion's business has been booming in the past few months, there have been more caravans traveling between the Western Regions and the Ming Dynasty.
When Wala heard the noise, how could he not be moved?
For this reason, Wala specially dispatched a cavalry team of thousands of people near Hami, who would come out to grab a shuttle from time to time!
And Nahuri of Eastern Chagatai established the Hami Kingdom in Hami. On weekdays, he colluded with the Tatars from Oara, and often did such things as robbing caravans. It has almost become their way of making money.!
But although Nahuli is a king, he definitely doesn’t have the courage to let him do it by himself!
After all, if his small country had not been under the name of the Eastern Chagatai Kingdom, it would have been destroyed long ago!
Oara was even more powerful than the Eastern Chagatai Kingdom, so when the Oara people arrived in Hami, Nahuri had to honor them as their ancestors!
With the Walas taking the lead, Nahuli, a soft-spoken man, could only half-heartedly join the robbery team.
In addition, Hami will be lent to the Wala 16 army as a temporary stronghold.
After all, with their fighting method, the Ming army might just come out and kill them!
It was too far to run back north to Yinchuan, and Hami was obviously more suitable as a stronghold for the Walas.
That night, thousands of Wala's cavalry and Nahuri's men suddenly appeared on a sand dune.
Not far away, a large caravan was pitching a tent and lighting a bonfire, preparing to spend the night here.
"It's another big caravan, and it looks like this ticket can make a lot of money again!"
The leading Wala man looked at the size of the caravan, his eyes were full of greed, and his tone was even more exciting.
"Wait! Look carefully, the flag hanging on the caravan is the flag of Hanzhong Mansion!"
The people in Nahuri were obviously more cautious. They pointed to the Chinese flag on the caravan carriage and reminded them urgently.
"What about Hanzhong Mansion? What we are robbing is what belongs to Hanzhong!"
The leader of Wala sneered disapprovingly.
When the people in Nahuri heard this, their expressions became even more ugly, and they couldn't help but curse secretly in their hearts.
"Damn it, you can pat your butts and walk away after you finish robbing. Then it will be the country of Hami that will bear the wrath of the Ming Dynasty. The abacus will crackle!"
But he cursed in his heart and asked him to speak out in person or even object. He didn't have the courage!
This Wala man will fall out whenever he wants. If you dare to oppose him, the next second he will put his scimitar on your neck.!
If you're lucky, I'll just scare you. If you're unlucky, I'll kill you and nothing will happen to him. Where can you reason with him?
"Follow my orders! After capturing this caravan, today we will not only grab the goods, but also kidnap the people back to me and make Hanzhong Mansion pay money to redeem them!"
The Wala leader shouted to his men, and then took the lead and rushed towards the caravan under the sand dune!
For a moment, the entire caravan was in chaos, and a moment later, it was surrounded by the Wala cavalry.!
Three days later.
Hanzhong Hanwang Mansion.
Zhu Li looked at the urgent report sent from Longxi early in the morning. The veins on his forehead were already prominent, and his eyes were full of anger!
"Since Wala doesn’t want to live with it, then everyone shouldn’t live with it!"
Soon, Zhu Li's expression softened slightly, but his tone became more solemn.
"Your Highness, the Wala people are hiding in the Hami Kingdom and have robbed caravans on the Hexi Corridor more than once!"
"This is the first time our caravan has encountered such a situation. Unexpectedly, they went even further this time and actually held our people hostage and demanded ransom from us!"
Qin Han said angrily.
"Sooner or later, you will have to fight!"
"Over the years, in order to prevent the court from becoming suspicious, I have been deliberately letting them go, but these reckless people want to hit my gun, so I can’t blame me!"
"Geng Qing has already led his troops to Datong, so I will attack the Hami Kingdom first to add to the fun!"
"Doesn’t the old man want to see the fighting power of my king’s men? Let’s just let him see clearly once and for all!
Zhu Yue snorted coldly, and then ordered to the Qin and Han Dynasties:"Except for the Tianshui Pass garrison, the remaining Hanzhong troops gathered together, and then transferred 10,000 imperial troops from Xi'an Mansion to surround Hami!""
Historically, in December of the 25th year of Hongwu, Nahuri apologized to the Ming Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty established the Hami Guard, and his younger brother Anke Timur succeeded King Zhongshun.
But this time, Zhu Li was ready to directly destroy the Hami Kingdom. Even if the Hami Guard is established, he is ready to take it into his own hands!
Once they dare to help the Wala people rob his Zhu Yue caravan, the Hami Kingdom will be declared destroyed!
"The general takes command!"
The Qin and Han Dynasties knew that Zhu Yue was serious this time!
If this group of Walas and Western Region tribes did not take the initiative to cause trouble, Zhu Yue could keep them running for a few more years!
But this time the caravan was robbed, and it was obvious that he had touched Zhu Yue's reverse scale!
In fact, for Zhu Yue, the loss of a caravan's goods is not big, but if it is not dealt with, there will definitely be a second or third time!
What's more, these Wala people still dare to do it! Holding people for ransom is a slap in the face!
Following Zhu Yue's order, a large number of armored cavalry appeared in the entire Hanzhong Prefecture.
Now the size of the Hanzhong Army is only 20,000, of which 5,000 are determined to be stationed at Tianshui Pass. They couldn't move. Geng Qing took away three thousand when he left, and Zhu Yue couldn't take away all the remaining Hanzhong troops.
Zhu Yue left two thousand Hanzhong troops to continue guarding his properties in Hanzhong, especially the military factory.
He could! There are still 10,000 main troops mobilized!
If you add the 10,000 imperial troops mobilized from Xi'an Prefecture, 20,000 people will be enough to take down a Hami Kingdom and thousands of Lava cavalry!
And the people of Hanzhong Prefecture are not satisfied with this! The scene is not surprising!
After all, it is an important border town. The Wala Tatars often go south, and it is common for the army to gather! This time, Zhu Yue directly asked Qin and Han to fight the war to destroy the country!
It's a small country, let alone Zhu Yue himself, who is still pretending to be blind. Even if he doesn't pretend to be blind, he can't arouse any interest. It's just a childish country. It's not like Zhu Yue, the king of Han Dynasty, has to take action in person.
"Your Highness, the army has been assembled and ready to set off at any time!"
Soon, the Qin and Han dynasties gathered their troops and returned to Zhu Yue.
"Well, this time I don’t intend to hide it. Do you know why the imperial army was mobilized to join the war?
Zhu Li nodded with satisfaction and reminded.
"The general finally understood that His Highness wanted to show his strength to the old man!"
"But wouldn’t this be a little too ostentatious?"
Qin and Han could not help but have concerns!
"Ha... If it were before, I would have continued to pretend to be a good son, but now that the old man has begun investigating me, I can no longer pretend!"
"He has no strength, but he will be beaten! You should always remember one thing for me, only if you are strong enough, others will be afraid of you!"
Zhu Yue certainly didn't do this out of curiosity.
In fact, he already had this idea when he sent Geng Qing to Datong!
If you can't pretend anymore, just stop pretending!
If it doesn't work, just show off! After so many years of fighting, he is tired!
Besides, he is fighting for the Ming Dynasty. What can the old man do if he sees his strength?
Is it possible that he will be punished because he can fight?
Now that I have doubts, I might as well let him see what he wants to see. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
This also shows that I didn't deliberately hide the old man 's intentions. What do you think, then you can only leave it to fate!
"The general understands!"
"Do we also need to bring the divine fire spears and divine cannons made in Hanzhong?"
After understanding Zhu Li's meaning, Qin Han asked with a heartbeat.
"There is no need for Shenwu cannons, but it is just a Hami country. Do you need to use a sledgehammer to kill a chicken? Just bring a hundred or so divine fire guns as you wish."
Zhu Li shook his head and said.
The divine fire gun made in Hanzhong is the Sanba Gai that Zhu Li asked the military factory to secretly produce.
Now that we are ready to show the old man our strength, some things can also be slowly developed. It's surfaced!
But he's not going to show off his cards directly.
Wouldn't it be more interesting to reveal it bit by bit?
I just hope the expression on the old man's face won't be too surprising!
"By the way, after Hami was defeated, our people directly occupied it, and the imperial army directly let them go back. I have prepared a memorial for you to ask for your merits. Geng Qing has become famous, and we will not let you fall behind!"
Zhu Li suddenly changed the topic and warned.
"Thank you, Your Highness. Then let’s go!"
Qin and Han heard this���He was refreshed and then left quickly under Zhu Li's gaze!
"How can I ask for credit from the old man? Just say that Wala and the Hami Kingdom kidnapped our people from the Ming Dynasty and demanded ransom. We went to save people and destroyed a country by the way?"
"Well, that’s it!"
Zhu Li looked at the departing figures of Qin and Han, and began to think about it.
On this day, the Hanzhong Army set off, targeting Hami!
Yingtian Palace.
Because of Zhu Yuanzhang's words a few days ago, Zhu Biao has not been having a good time these days!
It turned out that he felt that Zhu Yuanzhang was too sensitive, and now even he became sensitive!
In the afternoon, after dinner, the father and son took a walk in the Imperial Garden again and talked.
This time, Zhu Biao was uncharacteristically concerned about the dreams Zhu Yuanzhang had talked about before. Very interesting!
Zhu Yuanzhang was talking about some things that happened in the dream. Naturally, it was not as detailed as what he saw in the dream. Many places were just mentioned in one sentence!
Zhu Biao is more concerned about the things in these dreams now. Details!
Zhu Yuanzhang naturally knows what Zhu Biao is thinking!
He knows that what he said before has finally aroused the boss's competitive spirit!
The boss is changing his ways and wants to know more about Lao Jiu and Lao Si. Ah!
Zhu Yuanzhang did not refuse, and directly told him all the details in the dream, as well as the things Zhu Biao asked about, in detail.
He was worried that going into too much detail would offend Zhu Biao..
But now that I think about it, if Zhu Biao doesn't even have the ability to bear this, what else can he use to compete with Lao Jiu and the others?
"I see. No wonder Father, you are so afraid of the fourth child recently!"
After hearing some things about Zhu Di, Zhu Biao suddenly showed a look of surprise.
"We are not belittling the fourth child. Although this boy is also a good fighter. After all, after becoming the emperor, he conquered Mobei five times, defeated the Tatars and even made the wolves live in Xu, but compared with the old nine, he is still far behind. Got it!"
Zhu Yuanzhang reminded him seriously.
"Can you tell me more specifically?"
Zhu Biao immediately became interested.
"It’s better to say it than to see it!"
"Now you can more or less understand why we let Lao Jiu's people run away to Datong, right?"
"We just want to see what kind of strength the people brought out by Lao Jiu have!"
"The most important thing is actually not what we want to see, but what we want to see!"
"I have told you so much, and I hope you can be mentally prepared for 020!"
Zhu Yuanzhang explained with a wry smile.
Zhu Biao fell silent immediately after hearing this.
Of course he was mentally prepared, but whether he could accept it was another matter. Even he didn't know!
He never expected that he once thought he was the most sensible person. The obedient ninth brother, the one who was least likely to pose a threat to him, has now become the biggest threat to his throne, and even a major worry!
"how? No confidence in yourself?"
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Biao's thoughtful look and asked with a frown.
"Erchen just feels a little confused about the world!"
"The existence of the system you mentioned is simply a divine thing, something that should not exist in the mortal world! But you have it, and so does Lao Jiu, and we, the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty, have nothing!"
Zhu Biao smiled bitterly and shook his head.
At this moment, he was really a little jealous of Lao Jiu!
"Isn’t what’s ours yours? As long as you are determined, we, father and son, will fight for it together, and you may not be able to defeat Lao Jiu!"
Zhu Yuanzhang also felt a little uncomfortable.
Forget it, it's better to just bypass this problem!
"Biao'er, who do you think among the mighty generals of the Ming Dynasty, from the founding of the People's Republic of China to the present, are the most capable? Zhu
Yuanzhang asked with a smile.
"The ones who can fight the best are naturally Xu Da, Chang Yuchun, Tang He and Lan Yu!"
Zhu Biao read out the names of these four people almost without thinking!
Then he listed the achievements of these four famous generals one by one, especially Lan Yu who also reached the level of sealing the wolf and living in Xu in the first two years.!
"By the way, there is also the fourth child!"
"Didn't you just say that in your dream you also speculated that after Lao Si became emperor, he also conquered Mobei five times and achieved the achievement of sealing the wolf and living in Xu?"
Zhu Biao also added Zhu Di.
Of course, Zhu Di is no longer a military commander. After all, he is a vassal king!
From ancient times to the present, it has been possible to achieve the goal of sealing the wolf as a vassal. If you include the two people of the Ming Dynasty, a total of There are only six people!
Huo Qubing from the Western Han Dynasty, Dou Xian from the Eastern Han Dynasty, Li Jing from the Tang Dynasty, and Lan Yu and Zhu Di!
As for the sixth Zhu Qizhen, this is a joke!!
But speaking of it, the highest honors of ancient generals can be counted all the way to Langjuxu Mountain on one hand!
"It’s just a matter of sealing Langjuxu away. When Laojiu becomes the emperor in later generations, Langjuxu Mountain will soon become the back garden of the Ming Dynasty!"
After Zhu Yuanzhang heard Zhu Biao's words, he immediately laughed. It was only after Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the ranking of Ming emperors that he knew that those who could be in the top ten of this ranking, not counting himself, the founding emperor, were all basic operations for entry. That’s all!
"Is the father joking with his son?"
Zhu Biao's eyes suddenly widened when he heard this, wondering if his ears heard it wrong! ps: Please give me flowers!!! Please give me monthly votes!!! Please give me evaluation votes!!!.
