"That's great. Then we don't have to fight anymore." Liu Sanniang, the concubine of the British King, said.

"You are talking nonsense. Just because the Tatars have escaped does not mean that we will not pursue them. How can we not fight?" Zhu Han said with a smile.

"The Tatars have already fled to the Mobei grassland, do they still need to be hunted down?" Liu Sanniang felt a little confused.

She had heard that the Mobei grassland was either the desert next door or a barren grassland. When winter came, a person would freeze to death and even pee could be frozen.

But in summer, mosquitoes as big as a palm fly everywhere, biting people to death.

In such a poor place, she felt there was no need to pursue him.

"Tatars can come to the Central Plains to wreak havoc, why can't we go to the grasslands?" Zhu Han said with a smile.

After entering the palace and meeting his brother Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Han told him the information about Liaoyang Province.

Brother Zhu Yuanzhang was also shocked by the news.

"Can the Mongols even struggle and want to run away?" Zhu Yuanzhang felt a little incredible.

Even though the Yuan Dynasty was in a state of decline, it still had more than 100,000 elite soldiers.

There are hundreds of thousands of loyal Mongolians and Semu people following them, so why are they thinking of running away in advance?

"The general trend of the world is like this. As the saying goes, there is no freedom when heroes are transported, and destiny no longer favors the Mongols. Even if Genghis Khan comes, most of them will not be able to defend it. As for me, the Mongols can think of running away in advance.

It's a clever move." Zhu Han said with a smile.

"Do they really give up land so easily?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked.

Obviously, there is a big difference between the Han people and the Mongols in this matter.

"The Mongols don't value land. What they value is pasture and water sources. As long as there are better pastures and water sources, they will just go nomadic. For the Mongols, the Central Plains is no longer suitable for them to survive, so they will naturally have to flee.

We're on our way." Zhu Han said.

Brother Zhu Yuanzhang thought it made sense. He nodded, then looked at Zhu Han and asked: "Qiwu, what do you think, should Xu Da and the others speed up their troops and capture Dadu immediately?"

Brother Zhu Yuanzhang remembers that Zhu Han once proposed a plan to cross the sea and land in Dadu with an army of 100,000 troops!

Now it seems very feasible.

Unexpectedly, Zhu Han directly opposed this strategy.

"No, brother, we can't be in a hurry. Instead, we should follow the original plan and attack slowly and steadily. First, we will capture all of Shandong, then enter Henan, then capture Guanzhong and Shanxi, and finally attack most of the capital!" Zhu Han said calmly.

My elder brother, Zhu Yuanzhang, was a little anxious and confused, "If we attack Dadu in the end, all the Mongolians will be gone!"

"Yes, let them run! And not only let them run, but also let them run according to our plan!" Zhu Han said.

Brother Zhu Yuanzhang was already confused and couldn't understand what Zhu Han meant at all.

"What do you mean by asking them to run according to our plan?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked.

Zhu Han smiled slightly and took out a huge roll of paper from his arms.

"What is this?" Brother Zhu Yuanzhang asked.

"map."

"Map? What map?"

"The map of the whole world!" Zhu Han smiled mysteriously.

"oh."

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't say much and watched silently as Zhu Han opened the huge map on the table.

However, as the map unfolded, Zhu Yuanzhang saw that the map was completely different from what he had imagined!

Zhu Yuanzhang originally thought that the map of the world included the Central Plains and the Han Dynasty, plus the grasslands in the north, Tubo in the west, Nanyang and the Japanese Kingdom of Korea. It was considered a complete world.

However, in the map that Zhu Han unfolded, Zhu Yuanzhang originally thought that the world only occupied a small part of the map, maybe not even half of half of half of half.

"Ah, what, what is this?" Brother Zhu Yuanzhang stuttered in shock.

"Brother, this is the real world!!" Zhu Han looked proud.

This map was obtained by Zhu Han after signing in to the system, and then he drew it again. It contains not only the Eurasian world islands, but also North and South America, Oceania, and the Antarctic continent.

For elder brother Zhu Yuanzhang, this is simply something that subverts three views.

"It turns out that the world is so big! Qiwu, is this our Ming Dynasty?" Brother Zhu Yuanzhang saw the name of Yingtian Mansion in Nanjing and the surrounding area marked in red on the map.

"Yes, this is our current Ming Dynasty!" Zhu Han said.

"Then this is Chen Youliang, this is Ming Yuzhen, and this is the remnants of the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty in Yunnan. Why are these places not marked?" Brother Zhu Yuanzhang pointed to the Western Region and Central Asia with his hand.

"It's too chaotic there, and I don't know how to mark it." Zhu Han said calmly.

The Chagatai Khanate and the Ilkhanate of the Mongol Empire have now reached the end of their rope.

There are constant internal disputes, and it is difficult for even Daluo Immortals to figure out the division of their local forces.

"Then where is this place? Why is it such a large piece of land? It seems to be larger than the entire Central Plains!" Brother Zhu Yuanzhang pointed to the northwest.

"This is the Golden Horde, a vassal state created by Genghis Khan," Zhu Han said.

Brother Zhu Yuanzhang took a breath of cold air, "How is it possible that such a large territory is even bigger than the Central Plains!"

The Golden Horde started from the Kazakh steppes of Central Asia in the east and the Russian states in the west.

To the south is the Caspian Sea and the Caucasus Mountains, and to the north is the Arctic. It is naturally a very vast land.

"The area is vast and sparsely populated, so naturally the enfeoffment will be larger," Zhu Han said.

"Are there many countries further west?" Brother Zhu Yuanzhang asked.

Zhu Han pointed at the mosaic-like European continent on the map, "There are not just many countries, there are thousands of countries here!"

"What, thousands of countries?" Brother Zhu Yuanzhang was shocked again.

He took a serious look at Europa on the map.

No matter how you look at it, it is only slightly larger than the Central Plains. How could there be thousands of countries?

"Brother, these are all small fiefdoms. They control a county and have 30 to 50,000 people. Even if they are a medium-sized king, they have a landlord's compound, control an area of ​​three to five miles, and they are a small king.

There are thousands of countries, so it’s not very simple." Zhu Han said with a smile.

This is not nonsense on his part.

Today, France, Germany, Italy and Spain are not yet unified in any place. There are large and small feudal states everywhere. Even if there are thousands of feudal states, they are still a bit small.

"We understand, Qi Wu, are you planning to use a trick to drive away the tiger and devour the wolf?" Brother Zhu Yuanzhang immediately understood something.

"My enemy! Brother, don't you feel it's a pity to see such a large territory? We Chinese Han people are trapped in such a small area, but we cannot touch larger areas. When future generations face the shortage of land,

At that time, they didn't even have a way to survive and could only kill each other. Isn't it too miserable?" Zhu Han said.

"Yes, that makes sense!" Brother Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and said.

"So, we drove the Mongols westward and let them follow the same path as Genghis Khan. But this time, we were chasing them, waiting for the Mongols to go and kill them all."

"We will then occupy it, arrange for soldiers to garrison the fields, and leave a vast land for future generations!" Zhu Han described his grand blueprint.

Brother Zhu Yuanzhang was directly shocked by Zhu Han's generosity, and asked: "Qiwu, what do you think we should do as the first step?"

"Let the Mongols pack up their wealth and population first, and then force them to go north into the grassland. I have already found out that it is difficult for the Mongols in the Central Plains to adapt to the climate of the Mobei grassland. They will definitely not be able to survive it by then. We will continue

Send people to secretly lobby, tell them the situation in the Western Region, and let them migrate westward." Zhu Han said.

Brother Zhu Yuanzhang frowned and immediately felt that there was a loophole in it:

"But if the Mongols refuse to move west, what should we do?"

"Don't go west? Then they will wait to perish on the grassland and exterminate their species!" Zhu Han sneered.

Later, Zhu Han came up with his huge plan to control the grassland.

In Zhu Han's plan, he would no longer use the original long-distance attack method on the grassland, but would attack the grassland step by step, starting from the northeastern area of ​​​​Liaoyang, using a large number of military fortresses as bases, and gradually penetrating and controlling the interior of the grassland.

These military fortresses are all defended with muskets and artillery, a fortress of two to three hundred people!

As long as there is enough gunpowder and ammunition, it can withstand the siege of tens of thousands of people.

Historically, Tsarist Russia used this method to occupy territory in the Central Asian grasslands. As long as a fortress stood firm, the surrounding nomads would be extremely passive. After all, the grasslands are vast and sparsely populated, and there may be hundreds of miles in radius.

There are only one or two households with more than a dozen people, so trying to deal with a fortress is simply a fantasy.

"Okay, okay!"

"With this method, the Mongols will no longer be arrogant."

Brother Zhu Yuanzhang showed a very pleased smile. Originally, according to Zhu Yuanzhang's idea, after the Ming Dynasty conquered the world, he would overhaul the Great Wall and other defense fortifications in the north to prevent nomadic raids.

However, that is always a passive defense, and the initiative lies in the hands of the Mongols.

If Zhu Han's fortress advancement method is adopted, the money spent on building the Great Wall can be used to build fortresses and achieve better results.

"As long as a number of fortresses are built to let the Mongols know that they can't attack them, they will no longer stay in Mobei with peace of mind. They will definitely think of a way out in advance, and the only way out is to go west. After all, there are

The Chagatai Khanate is still a nominal vassal state of the Yuan Dynasty." Zhu Han said with a smile.

"As long as the Mongols leave Mobei, it is destined to be a road of no return." Brother Zhu Yuanzhang said with satisfaction.
