From Zeng Yunfeng's point of view, this battle was a victory because all the Mongols were crippled at once. However, from the perspective of people in the Ming Dynasty, this battle was a heavy loss because their emperor was lost.

After Zeng Yunfeng tidied up the Tumu Fort, he sent a good news to the court, which was also bad news, and then re-defended along the Great Wall.

Many people died in this battle, including many generals who originally fought with Emperor Yongle and Emperor Xuande.

Zeng Yunfeng was stationed in Datong City personally, waiting for the news of the imperial court sending troops. Does the emperor still want to do it?

Three days later, the results and losses had been fully calculated. There were more than 500,000 troops. Zeng Yunfeng only led 100,000 troops outside, of which more than 400,000 troops were led by British Duke Zhang Fu and others.

In this battle, the Ming Dynasty lost a total of more than 100,000 soldiers and horses, and nearly 150,000 civilians. During this period, other people returned one after another. The biggest losses were grain and grass baggage, many of which were burned. One-fifth of the horses were lost, and many

They were all killed during battles, totaling nearly 40,000 horses.

A large number of important personnel died in the battle, including Grand Master Zhang Fu, Marquis of Taining Chen Ying, Prince Consort Jing Yuan, Pingxiang Bo Chen Huai, Xiangcheng Bo Li Zhen, Sui'an Bo Chen Xun, Xiu Wu Bo Shen Rong,

The governors were Liang Cheng, Wang Gui, and the Minister of Household Affairs, Wang Zuo.

To die is to kill them all.

The gold and silver losses were recovered, and the losses were not large. However, the people in Datong, Yanghe, Yangyuan, Xuanfu, Tumubao, Huailai, Chicheng and other places suffered a great deal.

On the other hand, 130,000 prairie troops were annihilated this time. The original number was 120,000. Later, some who escaped one after another were annihilated by the defenders from various parts of the Great Wall. This time, almost no prisoners were left.

In the battles in three places, there were basically 50,000 prisoners, and Zeng Yunfeng ordered them all to be killed.

Later, some prisoners were taken in one after another, and almost more than 6,000 people survived under the Queen Mother's decree. A total of 90,000 horses were captured in this battle, and there were also a lot of dead horses.

The number of our own horses that died in the battle plus the horses on the grassland was close to 90,000.

It is estimated that the number of grassland tribes entering the customs this time is close to 170,000 to 180,000. Wala's first statement of 300,000 was actually a bit of a bluff.

Some of these grassland tribes may have dispersed into the mountains and forests between the two Great Walls. I guess if we catch them, we may be able to catch a lot.

This time it can be said to be a tragic victory, and the result was beyond Zeng Yunfeng's expectations.

He did not expect that such an elite Ming army could be reduced to rubbish by these people.

However, the British Duke Zhang Fu is not ignorant of military affairs. He is just a little afraid of things in his old age.

This time, Zeng Yunfeng also brought his two grandsons out to practice. Even though these two grandsons preferred to study and be civil servants, he still forced them out.

These two grandsons have long wanted to go out and become officials, but Zeng Yunfeng refused to let them go. He kept them at home to study hard. In such a chaotic period, letting them go out to become officials is really asking for death.

A lot of civil servants and generals around the emperor died. Regardless of whether they were true loyal ministers or flatterers, these people were all great, and not many could retaliate to the emperor by dying in battle.

Among their two grandsons, one of them will definitely inherit his title. This time he came out to let them see how to fight. At home, he often taught them, but it didn't work.

One of his two grandsons is named Chen Yanpu and the other is named Chen Yansu. Zeng Yunfeng’s eldest son, Chen Jinying, also had such a stupid name. (Much better than you, right!)

Ye Xian of the Oara tribe suffered the heaviest losses in this war. The Oara tribe brought nearly 80,000 people, and in the end only more than 10,000 people returned to the grasslands. But Ye Xian also gained the most. He brought the emperor of the Ming Dynasty

Zhu Qizhen caught him and took him back.

This time when they went to the Central Plains and entered the pass, they lost all their gold and silver. They didn't loot anything but brought back only one person.

But as soon as he returned to the grassland, all the Mongolian tribes came to visit him one after another.

Basically, the Mongolian tribes suffered considerable losses this time, and now they all come to settle accounts with the current Oara tribe.

They had made an appointment together to plunder the Ming Dynasty, but they didn't expect that the last army would appear and surround and annihilate them. They suffered heavy losses and only managed to escape from the Great Wall with a small number of people.

They have not suffered such a big loss in more than 20 years, and they wish they could eat it alive first.

Here, they also met Zhu Qizhen, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty. One of the tribal leaders came up and pulled the emperor Zhu Qizhen by his collar and said angrily: "I will kill you for robbing such a thing first."

He, because of him, my tribe is now a mountain of bones and a river of blood."

In fact, it was not that exaggerated. Most of the subsequent prisoners were simply killed by Zeng Yunfeng without any bloodshed.

"Don't be impulsive. Impulsiveness will not help. He cannot be killed. Do you want the grassland to turn into scorched earth?" Ye first pointed at Zhu Qizhen and said calmly.

Now they have no choice but to exchange the emperor Zhu Qizhen for some money or make some exchanges with the Ming Dynasty. The emperor must be handed over, but he must not be killed, otherwise the entire grassland will be exterminated by the Ming Empire.

.

The leaders of these Mongolian tribes had the right idea, for Zeng Yunfeng had been making this plan, and they were just waiting for the officials of the imperial court to unite their minds, march north, and recruit famous teachers to teach them how to behave.

At this time, in these yurts, Emperor Zhu Qizhen, who was humiliated by many Mongolian leaders, finally remembered what Zeng Yunfeng said and began to understand gradually, but it was already too late.

Emperor Zhu Qizhen is still in a state of confusion. From heaven to hell, in just a few days, his life is like a fallen leaf, empty and without any sense of existence.

Esen, a leader of Mongolia, said with a wry smile: "This is a stupid emperor, but he has very powerful generals and ministers in his hands."

"Yes, next, we will definitely face the national military strength of the entire Ming Empire. The grassland will face the threat of destruction and crazy revenge. The Ming Dynasty will not let us go." Atamu said.

"Many people who escaped from the pass said that a fierce general killed many of us to vent their anger because he failed to find their emperor, and they are still searching everywhere." said the leader Esen.

"If there is a war next, we don't know how many people will die in the grassland." Atamu said sadly.

"Yes, first of all, it was Zhang Kejian, the uncle of the Ming Dynasty, who you killed, so you can't just ignore it!" the leader, Esen, shied away.

Ye snorted coldly: "I told you at the beginning that if this person kills us, we will face the wrath of the Ming Dynasty together. Why, are you thinking about backing down now?"

Many leaders are embarrassed and regretful. Now all the grassland tribes are in panic, especially the tribes that participated in this entry operation.

"But there is good news. The general and important ministers you are afraid of have been relieved of their military power by their queen mother for losing the emperor and killing prisoners without permission." Ye Xian said with a smile.

On the other hand, the capital issued an urgent edict to remove Zeng Yunfeng from military power and asked him to return to the capital to reflect on his mistakes.

"Grandpa!" Chen Yanpu, Chen Yansu, Jiang Lan and others all looked up at Chen Yanqing, who was kneeling to receive the imperial edict, their faces full of grievances and complaints.

"Forget it, it's a good thing to stay away from war. Otherwise, hundreds of thousands of troops are in my hands. If I don't believe that they won't panic, this is the tragedy of my ministers. Let's go!" Zeng Yunfeng sighed and said.

"Jiang Lan, Ma Rong has been found, but he was seriously injured. Now you are the only one left. You have to guard the Shenji Camp for the people of the world. Once the Shenji Camp falls into the hands of the Mongols, it will eventually become a big problem." Zeng Yunfeng said to him as he left.

Jiang Lan said.

As soon as Zeng Yunfeng returned to the court, the news spread completely, and the officials were in panic all day long.

All the civil and military officials knew the news, that is, there was no emperor, and the emperor was more likely to be captured by the Mongols. Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, there has not been a day without an emperor, and they are really panicking now.

At this moment, from now on, the emperor Zhu Qizhen is completely tied to the pillar of shame of history. This humiliation cannot be washed away no matter who it is.

When Zeng Yunfeng returned to the Ming Dynasty to hold a meeting, countless people looked up at Chen Yanqing, wanting to hear what he had to say, but he didn't want to say a word. He had already been relieved of his military power, so what else could he say.

This matter must be Xuande's handiwork. The Queen Mother is not so courageous. She must have Xuande's will in her hands.
