Chapter 320 Jade Seal of Chuanguo(1/3)
Chapter 320 The Jade Seal of the Kingdom
"Uncle, will this be a little cruel? The people are innocent, why should they suffer such losses?"
In fact, this kind of playing style is also a helpless choice for Lan Yu.
If he had to choose, he would rather fight another battle in the sea of fishing.
However, the tribe on the grassland did not give him this opportunity. When he heard about his name Lan Yu, they ran faster than rabbits.
Even if he has great skills, he will not be able to hide and seek with them all over the grassland.
Therefore, bringing the Oirats in and letting them take the initiative to enter their own encirclement became his only choice.
"well!"
"I have sent orders to the surrounding prefectures and counties, allowing nearby villagers to hide in the mountains for a while."
"As long as they persist for a few days, I can keep this group of Oirats in the Ming Dynasty forever!"
After Lan Yu said this, she obviously didn't want to worry about the details and directly changed the topic.
"Nephew, grandson, you told my uncle, what do you want?"
"Is it the sweat-blooded BMW of the Western Regions or the princess of Mongolia? My uncle will snatch it back for you, hahaha!"
When Zhu Yunyu saw Lan Yu say this, he gritted his teeth.
"I want coolies!"
"I want a lot of coolies!"
Zhu Yunxiu came to Datong this time and felt deeply the inconvenience of transportation in the Ming Dynasty. Now he was full of his mind and wanted to build a railway that directly connects to Jinling and Datong.
He even thought of the name of the railway, Jintong Railway!
But building a road is a big project. Qin Shihuang only built a straight Qin road and was scolded for two thousand years.
It is conceivable how much resistance Zhu Yunyu would have if he wanted to build a railway in the Ming Dynasty.
Moreover, if you want to build a road, you must have enough steel, and if you want to make a steel, you must have enough miners to mine.
In short, he lacks people very much, and he lacks the kind of person who can die at will.
After all, mining is a high-risk job, and people are buried inside if they are accidentally injured.
It is too distressing to use the people of Ming Dynasty to mine, and it is perfect to use prisoners.
"Cool labor!"
Lan Yu's face suddenly became entangled when she heard this.
If Zhu Yunyu wants coolies, he wants a large number of prisoners.
However, it is not easy to capture the Oirats, so you have to make a big dumpling and wrap them all in.
In this way, his strategy will be adjusted again.
"By the way, did you bring a lot of long-mouthed cannons this time?"
"What a long-mouthed cannon?"
Lan Yu's sudden words made Zhu Yun'er confused. It was not until Lan Yu gestured that Zhu Yun'er realized that Lan Yu was talking about the new field artillery he had cast privately.
"Uncle, are you talking about field artillery?"
"I tell you, the artillery I brought is a good thing. It can attack cities with solid bullets, and it can attack cavalry with flower bullets..."
"Give me a hundred doors!"
"My uncle promises to catch tens of thousands of coolies for you, hahaha!"
"good!"
Zhu Yunxiu did not hesitate and agreed simply and neatly.
After Lan Yu held a pre-war meeting for the generals, he ordered people to carry him to the military camp to pick people.
Lan Yu’s standard for picking people is very simple. Prepare ten 80 kilogram stone locks. Whoever can pick them up and turn them around will be able to fight with him.
In one day, Lan Yu picked out 30,000 soldiers from the 100,000 soldiers in Datong Prefecture.
Those who were not selected looked at these people with envy.
Because they followed Duke Liang to fight, all the spoils seized belonged to them...
After Lan Yu picked up the people and trained them briefly to 30,000 people, they became familiar with the lower army and their respective Shangguans. After a few days, they brought three thousand people out of the city.
The Oirat soldiers guarding outside the city were all frightened to see so many people suddenly coming out of the city.
Because during their investigation, the soldiers of Datong Prefecture were infected with the epidemic, and there were not even a few defenders on the top of the city. How could so many people suddenly appear?
However, after experiencing the initial rush, thousands of Oirats still stabilized their positions and calmly retreated towards Dongsheng City.
Lan Yu led the people to chase after him for a while, then he directly rushed back to the city.
He was just a small fight today, letting Ola know the reality of the city and think that there were only a few thousand soldiers to fight in the city.
That night, Lan Yu brought 20,000 people with hundreds of cannons and 500 artillery soldiers who had borrowed from Zhu Yun's house and secretly killed towards Dongsheng City along the path.
Two days after Lan Yu took his men away, the Oirat gathered 10,000 cavalry and re-encircled Datong Prefecture.
When the Ola surrounded but did not attack, Fu Youde, as the defender of the city, was happy to be idle.
Anyway, Lan Yu gave him the military order to defend Datong Mansion and be considered a victory.
The 80,000 people under his command, 10,000 of which are worth fighting, and 70,000 snot soldiers, are more than enough to defend Datong Prefecture.
Dongsheng City.
After the Uqi Hashha soldiers took Dongsheng City without bloodshed, they used this place as a bridgehead to plunder the Ming Dynasty.
As for Datong Mansion, he directly drew down from the map, which was not within his attack range at all.
Although there is Lan Yu in Datong Mansion that makes him hate him so much that his teeth are itchy, if he brings the disease back to the grassland to kill Lan Yu, he will be the eternal sinner of the grassland.
As the army brought more and more materials, Ugezihashha gradually believed that Datong Mansion was already a hell on earth, and Lan Yu's 100,000 troops were completely disabled.
Therefore, his courage became even more and more powerful. Not only did he suppress all the main forces, but he also moved into the county government in Dongsheng City.
This move aroused dissatisfaction among the Oirat nobles headed by Haohaidayu, because Enkhan, who went to the army to fight, still lived in a narrow house. As the prime minister, how could Ugzihashha live better than Enkhan?
However, as if Ugzihashha did not see the dissatisfaction of the people, he held a banquet every day in the county government office of Dongsheng City, and ordered the Ming chef to cook wine and dishes for him to entertain the Oirat generals who returned home with a lot of loads.
On this day, while Ugzihashha was having a banquet, he suddenly saw a man named Sukhbaru hurriedly running in.
"Master Prime Minister, something is wrong. The defenders of Datong Prefecture have come out and repelled our cavalry!"
When Ugzihashha heard this, he was so shocked that he immediately jumped from the mat.
"How many people came out?"
"Report to the Prime Minister, three thousand people came out!"
After Suhbaru said this, he felt a little embarrassed. After all, the Prime Minister left him five thousand people to defend Datong Mansion.
He had so many people under his command, but was frightened by only three thousand people and ran away in scattered ways. This was somewhat unreasonable.
"Prime Minister, although they are few, they are all like wolves and tigers, and they look very much like Lan Yu's adopted son camp..."
The adopted son camp under Lan Yu's hands is a nightmare for the grassland tribes. In their opinion, this group of people is like crazy people. They fight wherever Lan Yu points, and they will be desperate for battle.
When Ugzihashha heard Sukhbaru say this, his face looked a little better.
"I will give you another 5,000 people. Including the 5,000 people before you, a total of 10,000 people. This time, can you defend the important way of returning to the army, right?"
Suhbaru thought for a while.
"It should be possible?"
Ugzihashha said furiously when he heard this.
"Can you be able to do it? Give this prime minister an accurate statement. If not, then I will change to someone who can do it!"
Sukhbaru was slightly confused and went down.
"able!"
"Please rest assured that the general will definitely defend outside Datong City and will never let any soldiers run out of Datong City!"
Seeing his subordinates expressing their opinions, Ugzihashha immediately assigned him five thousand cavalry and asked him to return to guard outside Datong City.
After sending Suhbaru away, Ugzihashha picked up the wine glass again and drank with the generals.
However, at this moment, Hao Haidayu, who had been disliked by Ugzihashha, spoke.
Haohai Dayu was the Grand Marshal of the Northern Yuan Khan Court and was considered the highest commander under Ugeqihashha.
However, there are only one title left in the Northern Yuan Dynasty. There is actually not much difference between the Prime Minister and the Taiwei. It mainly depends on whose tribe is larger, with a large population and strong strength.
"Master, I think we should be careful first, so as not to fall into the Ming army's evil plan!"
Ugzihashha sneered when he heard this.
"What a trick?"
