Guangning City?

When Zhang Qi and Wu Rong heard this noun, they were stunned for a moment, and then felt that it was a bit unlikely.

"Brother, Guangning is the General Cao guarding the important land, with strict barriers and close to 10,000 troops from the three guards of Guangning. How can the Tartars capture such a strong city?"

Although the combat effectiveness of the Ming army during the orthodox dynasty had declined a lot compared to the early Ming Dynasty, the second generation of Xun and Qi fell even further after they took office. However, with a strong city relying on it, ten thousand people faced the attack of 30,000 Mongolian cavalry, and the defense was still fine.

Unless the Mongolian Khan Tuotuobuhua seeks death, it is impossible for him to bypass the Liaohai Acropolis and attack the core important city of the Liaodong Dusi. Once the siege is blocked and falls into a stalemate, the one who welcomes the Mongolian army will be surrounded by tens of thousands of Liaodong Dusi soldiers!

"There are no more than 10,000 soldiers in Guangning City."

Li Da replied with a serious expression. He was highly valued by Cao Yi and was well aware of the deployment of Liaodong soldiers.

The emperor ordered the increase of troops in Luchuan, and asked Chen Mao, the Marquis of Ningyang, to draw a large number of troops from the Ningxia border army, Beijing camp, and Tartar official camp.

You should know that Ningxia is also facing the first line of defense against the Mongolian army, with two important military bases in Ningxia Town, Jiubian and Guyuan Town. If there is a vacant vacancies in the dispatch of troops, they will inevitably have to be transferred from other places to make up for it.

The direction of the imperial court's selection of military conscription was Liaodong Dusi!

After all, the defensive pressure in the Liaodong direction is relatively light, and the North Koreans and the Jurchens of the foreign countries have been loyal to the Ming Dynasty over the years, and they can also summon the minions to fight at critical moments.

So the three guards of Guangning, the five guards of Guangning, the four guards of Dingliao, and other guards near the northeast, and there was no pressure from the Mongolian army. Nearly half of the troops were drawn to the important towns in the northwest and nine sides to support them.

This resulted in the 25 Liaodong guards, 127,000 households and more than 90,000 soldiers. After deducting the customary vacancy of the Ming Dynasty, the actual number was less than 50,000, and the number of officers and soldiers stationed in Guangning City was less than 5,000!

You should know that the entire Liaodong area is as high as millions of square kilometers, and the troops of tens of thousands of people are stretched out, and they have to be scattered to various border abutments and guard the Mongolian army. The general and the Dusi guarded important places, and it is actually the limit to be able to stay in the 5,000 people.

If there are more, I'm afraid I'll have to give up some border abbeys.

"Even if there are only five thousand people, the Mongolian Tartars cannot conquer Guangning City!"

Wu Rong replied firmly, the three guards of Guangning where the general was stationed were the elite among the elites of the Liaodong Dusi, and they were not easily defeated.

"It's true, but the coach was surrounded. Should we go back to reinforce?"

The fat white man Zhang Qi asked Li Da, "There is no risk in Guangning City for the time being," said Guangning City.

If something happens to the head coach, it may lead to the collapse of the entire Liaodong defense line.

Facing Zhang Qi's inquiry, Li Da shook his head and said, "It's not time for us to return, and offense is the best defense. Wait for the opportunity to cut off the Tartars' food route and retreat, so that they will not return this time!"

Although the Liaodong Metropolitan Commander dispatched a large number of troops to Ningxia for support, there were still tens of thousands of troops stationed, and other garrisons were enough to reinforce Guangning City. The Liaohai Guard's return to defense was not very meaningful. On the contrary, staying here was equivalent to hanging a sharp sword on the head of the Mongolian Tatar cavalry!

At this time, the Ming Dynasty Tiger Ben was not the martial artist who had been broken by the late Ming Dynasty. He only dared to curl up in the city and shivered. When he met on a narrow road, the brave won, and Li Da even had the idea of ​​leaving the city to fight back.

However, as night fell, a scarred Guangning Guard messenger arrived, completely interrupting Li Da's plan.

"Li Shou Ge, Guangning City is in danger, and the three Jurchen guards have rebelled!"

When Li Da and others heard this news, they were all shocked. You should know that the three Jurchen guards had surrendered to the Ming Dynasty for many years. Even under the threat of the Mongolian army, they still maintained their loyalty to the Ming court.

Even the letters of the Wasai tribe, Yesen Taishi, who won over the three Jurchen guards, were handed over to the court to show their innocence.

Faced with the Mongolian army's obscurity, Liaodong Dusi originally wanted to summon Jurchens or North Korean minions, but unexpectedly, the other party rebelled in advance!

At this moment, Li Da completely understood why Tutuobuhua ignored the existence of the Liaohai Guard and led the main Tatar troops to go around in a hurry. It turned out that the Mongols and the Jurchens had already planned to attack him and the troops of both sides merged to capture the capital of the Liaodong Dusi.

"Gather the troops and rush to help Guangning City!"

Without any hesitation, Li Da issued an order to return to defense.

There is no set of three departments in Liaodong. If something happens to Guangning City, tens of thousands of generals will be without a leader.

The situation is urgent and there is no qualification. If you want to consider the anti-encirclement and suppression of the Tatar cavalry, you must ensure the safety of General Cao and Chief of the Dusi!

Just when the beacons everywhere in Liaodong were everywhere, the main force of the Wastu tribe led by the central branch, led by the Taishi tribe, to the Datong defense line at a faster speed.

Faced with the attack of the Wassau army, the generals of the Ming Empire did not admit defeat. Wu Hao, who was the right sergeant general of Datong at the time, chose to lead his troops to take the initiative to snipe the Wassau cavalry. The two sides had an encounter near Datong Maoerzhuang.

In the past, the targets of the Ming army were generally the Tatar tribe and the Uryanha tribe among the three Mongolian tribes. The Tatar tribe, which had the blood of the Golden Family and the title of the Mongolian Khan, was actually very weak under the attack of the Ming army and the Washu.

In addition, Zhu Yong, Duke Chengguo, won the victory in the Urianha in the ninth year of Zhengtong, gave the Ming army a wrong impression, that is, the Mongolian cavalry was very weak and the equipment was not very well-equipped, and if he took the initiative to attack the field, he would not suffer any loss at all.

As a result, Wu Hao encountered the main force of Wastu, which was completely different from his previous impression. Regardless of the difference in combat effectiveness and morale, the number of "Iron Cavalry" with complete armor was not inferior to that of the Ming cavalry.

Even during the Battle of Maoerzhuang, the Ming army encountered Mongolian cavalry wearing vests!

The appearance of heavy cavalry was like a torrent of steel, and instantly penetrated the defense line of Wu Hao's troops in Datong, and the fate was naturally defeated and killed.

When the news came back to Datong Town, the governor of Datong, Xining Hou Songying, who had just taken office for a short time, was completely disgusted. In less than half a day, the troops of the Datong general Wu Hao who attacked were wiped out. When did the Mongolian Tartars have such strong combat power?

However, even so, Song Ying still did not realize that the Mongolian army today was already standing at the same position as the Ming Dynasty.

While sending people to report military information to the court, he also ordered the son-in-law, the governor of Jing Yuan, the general of Datong, Wu Jinbo Zhu Mian, and the left sect general, Shi Heng, each led 10,000 troops. In addition, he was frivolous and 10,000 troops, and the troops divided into four directions to Yanghe to resist the invasion of the Wastu army.

Judging from the scale of the war between the Ming and Mongolia in the past, the 40,000 troops were no longer a small number, and theoretically it was more than enough to resist the offensive of the Wastu tribe.

But what Song Ying never expected was that the 40,000 troops he thought was enough, but the main force of the Wassau army led by the enemy was as high as 150,000!

Moreover, the other party was waiting for a decisive battle with the Datong defenders, but unexpectedly they came to their door.

The result is conceivable. In the battle of Yanghe, the 40,000 troops in the Ming Dynasty were almost wiped out. The 40,000 troops in the Ming Dynasty were almost wiped out. The 40-year-old Marquis Song Ying, the 1st-year-old man Zhu Mian died in battle. The prince-in-law Jing Yuan and the 1st-san general Shi Heng fled back to Datong Mansion in an extremely embarrassed manner.

In addition, there is also the eunuch Guo Jing, the governor of Datong, who hid in the grass before he survived.

Here we have to mention Guo Jing, the eunuch of Datong, who has been through four dynasties and is also a military officer in Datong. He has a good relationship with Wang Zhen in the palace. He can be said to have a transcendent position in the place.

But just like this, the most "powerful person" in Datong, Guo Jing secretly colluded with the Wastu tribe, accepted the other party's bribe, and smuggled firearms and steel feathers outside the Great Wall all year round.

Guo Jing made great contributions to the main force of the Watts and Tsings Division, and possessed "heavy weapons" such as cavalry.

What's even more outrageous is that this kind of spy behavior of an iron ghost was reported as early as the 10th year of Zhengtong, Zhu Qizhen, the Ming Dynasty Yingzong, said that the tribute envoys carried a large number of armor and weapons, as well as bows, arrows, guns and cannons.

It is obvious that these things cannot be easily made by the tile and thorns, and there must be someone behind them for smuggling and selling. Moreover, during the Orthodox Dynasty, the firearm technology was strictly controlled within the two capitals, and there were very few border guards that could legally manufacture firearms. It is almost possible that spies appeared within the Ming army.

As a result, after investigation, I found that it was related to the vendors under Guo Jing's name. Therefore, such a case of serious reselling of military equipment was turned into small matters and small matters, and finally left nothing.

It would be fine if I discovered this once. In the 12th year of Zhengtong, Zhou Ji, the Censor of Datong, impeached the eunuch Guo Jing, the eunuch of Datong, and Wang Xing, the general of Datong, sold armor and firearms to the Mongolian Tishu.

Logically speaking, this has been captured twice, and it is the Inspector Censor who impeached him. Will the inward Guo Jing be punished?

But reality is so magical. Guo Jing found a reason to say that the armor and weapons sold to the Washi tribe were exchanged for war horse equipment Datong defenders to improve their combat effectiveness.

This kind of random excuse made Guo Jing escape. Not only did he not hold him accountable, he didn't even have the most basic punishment, he still served as the eunuch in the Datong Governor, and in fact the highest military and political power.

Do you say that the highest officials are all insiders, can they win this battle?

The news of Yanghe's defeat was passed to the capital only one day later at the cost of running a few horses to death.

After all, this may be the worst failure of the Ming Dynasty in recent decades, with tens of thousands of troops killed and two honorary relatives. The entire Shanxi Datong defense line was in danger!

For a time, the lights were brightly lit in the Forbidden City. The important officials of the court who received the news of the court rushed to the palace with a serious expression. No one expected that the provocation of the Washu army would lead to such serious consequences.

Is this the Mongolian cavalry too strong or the Datong defenders too weak?

In the Huagai Hall, Zhu Qizhen looked extremely ugly. He had ambitions and was ready to wait for the Luchuan War to end, and immediately marched northward.

Educate Wasaibu Yesen to let him understand whose world it is now!

In order to achieve this goal as soon as possible, Zhu Qizhen even dispatched troops from important towns in the nine borders to Luchuan for reinforcements while the Mongolian army in the north were approaching.

Unexpectedly, before the Luchuan war ended, Datong suffered such a crushing defeat!

This is nearly 50,000 troops!

The civil and military officials who arrived in a hurry saw Zhu Qizhen on the imperial throne with a cold expression, and it was obvious that they were filled with anger. So after performing the kneeling ceremony, they stood aside carefully, not even daring to show off their anger, for fear that they would be caught as a typical punching bag.

But even so, an unlucky guy finally hit the gun. Just as the civil and military ministers were almost ready to discuss matters, Sui Anbo Chen Xun hurriedly stepped into the Huagai Palace.

"I am late, please forgive me."

In the past, if a minister of honor and relatives suddenly convened to discuss matters, Zhu Qizhen would not be able to punish him. At most, he would remind him two words.

But this time, Zhu Qizhen immediately roared: "You can be late for military and national affairs, what's the point of waiting for me? Take out the court stick and ten sticks!"

Court stick?

When many people heard this term, they couldn't help but take a breath.

The so-called punishment cannot be punished, let alone a class like the Xunqin, who is beaten by the court just after being late, is definitely an extremely severe punishment.

This shows how bad Zhu Qizhen is.

In normal times, ministers of the Xun and Qi had to stand up and plead for Sui'an Bo Chen's. This time, under the pressure of Datong's defeat, he did not dare to stand up and cause the emperor's bad luck at this time.

As Chen Wu was dragged down to the court, Zhu Qizhen said: "I believe that all the families of you already know why I summoned the court to discuss overnight. It is a very shameful humiliation to suffer such a crushing defeat in Datong!"

After saying that, Zhu Qizhen punched the imperial case with a heavy blow. He was still thinking of surpassing the late emperor, but he did not expect that during his reign, he would encounter a beating by the Mongolian army.

After seeing this scene, the ministers in the hall were silent. The defeat was too sudden. Many people were actually like Zhu Qizhen and were unable to completely accept this result.

"Now I want to ask you how to avenge your previous shame and promote the prestige of the Ming Dynasty!"

Even if he suffered such a big defeat, Zhu Qizhen's first reaction was not to analyze the reasons for the failure and carefully explore the opponent's strength.

Instead, he was thinking about how to get back the scene and let out this humiliated anger!

Faced with the emperor's question, the ministers of Huagai Palace naturally kept silent. They were not clear about the specific situation in Datong. Who dared to give suggestions?

Seeing that he summoned the ministers who came to discuss matters overnight, standing in the hall pretending to be mute, Zhu Qizhen's anger became even worse.

He was originally a proud and arrogant person, hoping to catch up with Taizu and form an emperor's great martial arts. After seven years of Zhengtong rule, he developed a self-decisive character. Since you, the incompetent people, have no choice, then I will turn the tide!

"Okay, okay, okay. It is often said that you can eat your king's fortune, be loyal to your king, and be worried about your worries. Is that how you help me share my worries?"

"You don't know what to do, I know!"

"I will not let my Ming soldiers die in vain, and let my people in the northwest become slaves of alien races!"
Chapter completed!
