First Minister of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 124: Broke down

Hot recommendation:

Is there a lot of food for 300,000 shi?

Lao Zhu has nearly a million shi in stock. In addition, Zhang Ximeng's grain bank has similar stocks. Zhu Jiajun is extravagant enough to raise fat pigs in batches.

A mere 300,000 stones, really not much.

But if you look around the world, the one who can say this is Zhu Jiajun.

All other forces suffer from food shortages.

It goes without saying that Liu Futong, Emperor Tianwan Xu Shouhui.

Is Yuan Ting easy?

Before the Red Turban Uprising, four million shi of grain was transported from the south to the capital every year to maintain the dignity of high officials and the expenditure of soldiers and horses in the DPRK.

Together with the Red Turban Army, first of all, the food was too small, and they could only rely on sea transportation. The quantity was only 1.6 million shi, not even half.

The price of food soared more than twice.

Moreover, they frequently fight and consume inventory quickly.

Yuan Ting had been stretched a long time ago. Why did Tuotuo wait until October before daring to go south? Instead of waiting for the harvest in the north, he barely made up some of the inventory.

Do everything possible to mobilize 1.5 million stone army rations to supply the army to the south.

Tutuo claimed to have an army of one million, but it was actually only 400,000, and it went south along the canal to save costs and reduce consumption as much as possible.

But even so, the food that can be transported to the front of the army is less than 1.2 million shi. After repeated battles, the food that can be taken away is only half a million shi, and 300,000 shi is stored in Huai'an. , As the general granary of the whole army.

According to Tuotuo, he hopes that Gaoyou will be taken as soon as possible, the canal will be opened, and the food will be supplemented by Jiangnan.

However, Gaoyou failed to overcome it, and instead lost Huai'an, hundreds of thousands of horses, and only less than one month's ration left.

By now, although the mountains and rivers have not been exhausted, they are not far away.

Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhang Ximeng got the news to cheer them up. The most critical fighter has finally appeared. Regardless of whether the tactics can be achieved, the lack of food alone is enough to kill them.

"Quickly, gather everyone and discuss countermeasures immediately!" Zhu Yuanzhang exclaimed excitedly, and soon all civil servants and generals, from more than a thousand households, all arrived.

This is also the position that the military commander performed outstandingly after discussing the military situation several times and gave himself a winning position.

After listening to the situation, the big guys were all excited, and a god-given opportunity really appeared.

"Superior, I feel that I should keep the food in Huai'an, and immediately wave the army north to assist Marshal Peng and the others." It was Fei Ju who was talking, and he was eager to get this job right away.

It's just that Xu Da remained silent, thinking slightly.

From the Liuhe side to Huai'an, the distance is almost five hundred miles. Even at the fastest speed, it will take seven or eight days to get there. The front is so long, and there is still a weak link in the middle. If the Yuan army came again from Gaoyou, it might ruin the whole army.

"Superior, it's better to ignore Huai'an and march into Gaoyou!" Xu Da said suddenly.

Enter Gaoyou?

You deserve it!

Xu Da, you are too courageous.

The three hundred thousand people of the main force are still in Gaoyou. At this time, if you go to attack Gaoyou, isn't it a pebble hitting the rock?

Xu Da stood up abruptly, and the long battle had already demonstrated his uniqueness.

"In the upper ranks, although there are many soldiers and horses to escape, but the hearts of the people are uneven, and it is difficult to dominate. If the wind is okay, setbacks will inevitably appear in chaos. There are many soldiers in Gaoyou, but there may not be those who can separate and fight with us. How much. In addition to the lack of food and grass, the military will be unstable. If you attack Gaoyou at this time, you will be 50% sure of your humble position, break the Yuan army blockade, rescue Gaoyou's trapped soldiers, and destroy the enemy in one fell swoop!"

After Xu Da's analysis, many people were dumbfounded. At the moment, Zhu Yuanzhang assembled all the soldiers and horses, no more than 50,000 people, to solve the siege of Gaoyou, is there really a chance of winning?

The big guys talked about it. People like Feng Guosheng and Tang Shengzong were opposed to Xu Da's ideas. What's interesting is that Hu Dahai strongly supported them.

This group may not understand the overall strategy of war. He is purely greedy and eager. He wants to fight wherever there are more troops.

It is really interesting that the most sensible and the most irrational stand together.

Their argument has not yet come to fruition, but one thing is that they have gradually reached a consensus, that is, Huai’an is too far away, so Peng Zaozhu and Miao Daheng can only be used. Zhu’s main force can only attack other positions and contain the Yuan army. Peng Zaozhu supported.

However, to directly attack Gaoyou, it is too much to challenge everyone's limit, and it is too late to make up their minds.

At this moment, Zhang Ximeng suddenly said: "Huai'an is too far away, Gaoyou is too strong, can you attack Yangzhou!"

Yangzhou!

Everyone was startled, and after thinking about it for a moment, they felt more and more reasonable.

There are not many Yuan troops in Yangzhou, they are close to each other, and they guard the canal. The geographical position is more important than that of Gaoyou.

Regardless of whether or not Yangzhou can be taken, the Yuan army will be mobilized to create fighters.

Zhu Yuanzhang's face showed a satisfied smile, "Huai'an is too far away, Gaoyou is too strong, Yangzhou is unbiased, it is just right! What does the big guy think?"

Xu Da was stunned, stood up hastily, bowed and said: "The humble post thinks it is indeed just right!"

Fei Ju and the others also stood up, "Superior, don't hesitate, send troops right away!"

"good!"

Zhu Yuanzhang immediately said: "Fei Ju, Huayun, you led three thousand paces to Zhenzhou, returned to Feng Guoyong, set off from Zhenzhou, and went straight to Yangzhou. Xu Da, you led the former camp and went straight from Liuhe. Take Yangzhou, if you encounter the Yuan army going south, you have to act accordingly and handle it properly."

Xu Da's ability alone is enough.

Zhu Yuanzhang's arrangement was very appropriate.

The army was mobilized, and he and Zhang Ximeng led the main force and marched towards Yangzhou as the reserve team of the whole army.

It can be seen that Lao Zhu did not have full confidence in taking down Yangzhou. He did not put all his capital on it, but tried to make arrangements before making arrangements.

Attacking Yangzhou is indeed a wonderful move.

The entire Lianghuai battlefield was completely alive.

When I was in Gaoyou, all I got was bad news.

Victory was still in sight a few days ago, and in a blink of an eye, it turned out to be bleak.

The younger brother also defeated Tamerlane first, and all 20,000 horses were wiped out. Even his whereabouts are unknown.

Xuexue's three million households are dead, not to mention, Xuexue hasn't even been whereabouts yet. Thirty thousand people, and less than one thousand returned, these soldiers who escaped by chance were extremely anxious, saying that the red thieves were powerful, just like heavenly soldiers.

These two fiascos have already left Tuotuo scorched.

But compared with the next news, it was nothing.

A group of red thieves tricked open the gate of Huai'an and raided the granary.

After Tuotuo heard it, he almost vomited blood!

How could Huai'an heavy land be lost!

He immediately summoned his subordinates to discuss countermeasures. After some wrangling, he took off the order, gathered 50,000 households, and asked Shandong soldiers to go south to kill the Huai'an Red Pirates.

The successive fiascos have made them so scared that they dare not send 20,000 to 30,000 soldiers and horses. Only 50,000 or more can guarantee safety.

But these troops have not yet officially started, another bad news came, and the Red Rogue sent troops to attack Yangzhou. There were so many troops and the situation was critical...

Holding the letter from Yangzhou for help, she was stunned.

Liuhe, Tianchang, Huai'an, Yangzhou...what the **** is going on? Valley

Where did so many red scarfs pop up?

What grows from the ground, what falls from the sky?

Why did no one tell me?

Up to this moment, Tutuo hasn't figured out how large Zhu Jiajun really is. Lao Zhu's slow claim to the king is really outstanding.

Tuotuo thought a lot, he even suspected that it was Emperor Xu Shouhui, who sent reinforcements.

But no matter what, his situation took a turn for the worse.

He couldn't help but save Huai'an. If he didn't save Huai'an, the whole army was short of food, and within a month, it would fall apart... How about Yangzhou? What's more, if Yangzhou loses defense, even if he wins Gaoyou, what will happen? Besiege Yangzhou again, do the same thing again?

And the most difficult thing to get off is the red scarf on the opposite side. How many are there? It seems that this group of people will even attack Gaoyou!

Tuotuo didn't dare to give orders casually. He immediately called his confidant Gong Bosui to join the army, Ha Lai, the deputy envoy of Hakka Province, these two people are not high-ranking officials, but they are Tuotuo's confidantes. The military counselor's tactics are a bit similar to Zhang Ximeng's role under Zhu Yuanzhang.

Faced with the current situation, these two also couldn't figure out a single idea.

After all, this group of Chuzhou Red Scarves is really weird.

Huai'an and Yangzhou are both places that must be saved, and Gaoyou cannot give up here.

Don't look at the Yuan army with 400,000, but only about half of it can be fought inside. In the attack on Zhang Shicheng, a lot has been lost.

Another 50,000 lost in Zhu Yuanzhang's hands. At this moment, the two groups sent troops to rescue, and at least 100,000 had to be sent out. Those who stayed in Gaoyou were a group of old, weak, sick and disabled.

Not to mention whether there was any Red Scarf army killed, what should one do if a Shicheng breaks through?

After continuous analysis, there is still no clue.

Tuotuo is left with a bitter smile, "The old man assists the emperor, governs all nations, repairs history, governs rivers, and rebels against the people... To this day, has this Gaoyou city actually become my burial place?"

Tuotuo hammered the table severely, and roared: "The army of more than 300,000 people is controlled by others everywhere, so how can the old man see the world!"

The two men lowered their heads with fever on their faces, but Gong Bosui had many ideas. He thought about it and said: "Prime Minister, at the moment, only the soldiers from Jiangnan can be mobilized, or the Red Thieves can retreat!"

"Jiangnan!" Tutu paused, and there was a gleam in his eyes. Yes, there are so many soldiers in Jiangnan. Hold on, as long as Jiangnan launches an attack, everything will be fine, and it will be fine...

Tuotuo left and gave an order to let Tu Jian, stumbling Ma and others in Jiangnan immediately cross the river and launch an offensive.

After the order was given, he took off and sat on the chair, panting.

The situation is too difficult. He has to support it all by himself. I don't know how long it will last?

Free from exhaustion, life is like years.

It's just that in the eyes of outsiders, especially those in most of the people, they can't feel the difficulty of getting off at all. On the contrary, they feel that it is not too cool to get off and hold the army, give orders and give orders.

It's been almost three months since the army was dispatched, and the Red Thieves have not been completely wiped out. Is the Million Army a display?

Don't ask, it must be to support the bandit, otherwise, how could it not be able to take it down?

It is too difficult for these people to understand the complex situation on the battlefield. The best they know is one million to fifty thousand. The advantage lies with me!

There are more and more criticisms of Tutuo. Yushi has been impeached one after another. That's not even counted. There is a poem in the world. Some people say that this is because the Tutuo brothers should be the emperor. Some people also explain that Ming Tuotuo brothers are. The treacherous ministers, only by getting rid of them, can Da Yuan be safe.

Zhang Ximeng's first card worked.

And a group of people from the rivers and lakes from Haozhou and other places set up a stage to sing in most places, and they didn't need money, which also detonated most public opinion.

In this depressed and precarious era, the big guys need a little art product too much.

Especially this kind of money-free, it is very popular and rushed.

More than 10,000 people came to Wu Datou's first scene.

By the second game, there were 40,000 people.

In the third scene, I had to borrow the site of Huguo Temple, and after a play, it was even more lively than the temple fair.

People have talked about it, saying that the drama is good, after all, the happiness of prostitutes is the same between ancient and modern.

The reputations of Cao Cao, Huan Wen, An Lushan...they spread in most of the cities.

It became a hot topic in an instant, just like those Internet stalks, it quickly became a hot topic of discussion.

As the prime minister, Cao Cao took the emperor's position, and eventually his descendants usurped the throne.

Huanwen’s Northern Expedition was to increase his prestige. In his later years, he spread the rumors that the emperor could not have children, and all his heirs were produced by OEMs, so he abolished the emperor and assumed power.

Not to mention Anlu Mountain, holding a large army, rebelling against the court, forcing the emperor to flee, the concubine was killed, and the prince ascended the throne. Eight years of Anshi Rebellion, the Tang Dynasty tossed all the mountains and rivers.

In these three plays, almost every place is pointing to escape.

It won't work if you don't think about it.

Almost instantly, Tuotuo was thrown into the biggest political wave at the end of the Yuan Dynasty.

Above the Yuan Court, various forces are surging. Some attacked Tutuo, and some died to save it. Some even suggested that Tuotuo Huangyue be given to Tuotuo Huangyue, or to simply appreciate Jiu Tin. Only by relying on Tuotuo Prime Minister, can it be calmed down. Red scarf.

The whole city is already in trouble. Pingzhang Zhengshi Hama smiled and went to meet a **** with pride. This person is called Pu Buhua (not edited). He is a Korean, and he arrived in Dayuan at the age of seven. The palace, wait on the emperor.

Coincidentally, the queen Qi's also came from Goryeo, and she was still a neighbor with Pu Buhua. Now Pu Buhua was soaring, he and Qi's teamed up to each other, in the palace, overwhelming the river and the sea, doing everything.

Hama sought them out, and when he shot it out, it was a house.

When he handed the deed to Pu Buhua, the dead **** glanced at him, smiled immediately, and hurriedly tucked it into his sleeve, "The master is really polite, let the slave and maid say something good!"

Hama smiled and said: "The father-in-law is working hard for state affairs. UU reading www.uukanshu.com makes the father-in-law sleep peacefully, which is exactly where he is."

Pu didn't overjoy, and immediately led Ha Ma to see Qi's.

After Hama and Qi’s meeting, they didn’t talk about the war situation, nor did they say how much opposition the ruling and the opposition had. They just talked to Qi. Although the crown prince was appointed, there was no reward or sacrifice to the world. Did not enter the Taimiao to worship...Is it not that the crown prince has Goryeo descent on his body, and the central Mongolian officials refused to agree!

Hama's words completely detonated Qi's anger!

The largest Mongolian minister in the DPRK, isn't it just Tuotuo!

Qi Shi did not hesitate to blow the pillow wind to the Emperor Dayuan...in the palace, outside the palace, the court, the folk, almost all the spearheads were aimed at Tutuo.

Some people even overturned Timur's defeat of Shahe, accusing him of shielding his brothers.

Hama seized the opportunity to seize the Yushitai and planted his own person as the Yushi doctor. This opened the hornet's nest, and all the things that Timur had suppressed over the years have all appeared!

The ruling and the opposition are discussing it like fire, and even people threaten to kill them at the ceremony. If you don't get away from it, the law of heaven is intolerable!

At this moment, Emperor Dayuan couldn't sit still.

The person by the pillow pressed him, and the courtier pressed him.

"Then, let the prime minister return to the court, who can control the army?" the emperor asked intently.

Hama immediately stood up, "My Majesty, the Red Thief is already at the end of the crossbow, and can be wiped out with a wave of his hand. All the Chinese officials and generals are capable of this task!"

His Majesty the Emperor Dayuan seriously thought for a long time, and at this moment he seemed to have heard the call of a senior.

"The Taishi has worked hard, but the elders are lazy and spending too much money. For the time being, let him lay down his military power and return to Beijing to rest."

In a word, the military power to escape is gone!

The hope of the Yuan Dynasty is gone...
