Chapter 423: The Great Sweep

"The government army is a great victory, the government army is a great victory, the Central Army goes deep into the grassland and annihilates 230,000 Mongolian cavalry."&1t;/p>

As the Ming army's victory was transmitted back to the capital, the entire capital was in full bloom. The unprecedented victory achieved by the oo6th Division turned the capital into a sea of ​​celebration.&1t;/p>

This news soon spread to various provinces, causing a huge sensation.&1t;/p>

The emperor personally conquered the grasslands, not only invincible, but also directly annihilated the 230,000 Mongolian army. This was an unimaginable huge victory.&1t;/p>

Even when Chengzu swept the grassland, he had never achieved such a brilliant victory. But today, he surpassed Chengzu's record.&1t;/p>

"Da Ming Daily": "Today, I led my troops to fight the Northern Expedition and personally attacked Mongolia. All Mongolian tribes were frightened and frightened. When they fought with the Oo6 Division, Mongolia lost 230,000 troops, intending to exchange for a ceasefire with the conditions of paying tribute, which was rejected by the emperor. The reason why the emperor refused Mongolia to seek peace was that the Ming Dynasty's Northern Expedition to Mongolia would be a battle to destroy the country. If Mongolia did not destroy it, it would never extinguish the troops."&1t;/p>

As soon as this report was released, it attracted national attention.&1t;/p>

The situation of Zhu Youxiao's personal conquest for Mongolia was obviously expected by many people, and the expected return did not occur.&1t;/p>

Less than a month after spring, the Ming army achieved an unprecedented victory in the war against Mongolia. At the same time, it is even more incredible that the official actually claimed that this was a battle to destroy the country.&1t;/p>

But how to destroy Mongolia?&1t;/p>

This issue quickly caused huge controversy. Many people still believed that the Ming Dynasty could not destroy Mongolia. After all, the Mongolian grasslands were too big, and the Mongolians could hide and seek everywhere.&1t;/p>

However, they were soon slapped in the face. The Daming Daily soon reported on the grand occasion of building roads and building cities on the grassland.&1t;/p>

"My Daming Railway has run through the north and south lines of Mongolia. A small fort is five miles apart, a big fort is ten miles apart, a town is fifty miles apart, and a city is two hundred miles apart. Mongolia can be divided into two within three months, and another railway can be built to run through the east and west directions of Mongolia within half a year. Although the grassland is large, there will be no place for the Mongolian army to stand."&1t;/p>

The emperor built the railway to Mongolia, and many people suddenly realized it.&1t;/p>

If there is a railway, how could the Mongolians jump up?&1t;/p>

Once the railway is built into Mongolia, the Ming Dynasty will be able to gain a foothold on the grassland. The Mongolians will not be able to prairie≑ding≯∑dian≯∑Xiao≯∑Say,.2≧3.↑o&1t;    s="arn:2p    o     2p    o">&1t;srp    p="/aasrp">s_();&1t;/srp>&1t;/> grazing normally will only be consumed by the Ming Dynasty in the end.&1t;/p>

Although the city is relatively slow, it is the most effective way to build a railway to Mongolia.&1t;/p>

In fact, the great victory achieved by the oo6th Division has already made Zhu Youzhai's personal expedition very glorious. At this time, even if Zhu Youzhai returns to the court, he can still be promoted for n years.&1t;/p>

Obviously, Zhu Youxiao did not go to conquer Mongolia for the sake of bragging and great success, but for the actual interests of the Ming Dynasty.&1t;/p>

As long as Mongolia is eliminated, the Ming Dynasty will no longer have to deploy millions of troops to guard against Mongolia in the north. At the same time, it can completely obtain various resources in the Mongolian region, and the grassland economy will become very large. At the same time, Mongolia also has various mineral resources, etc. In addition, in the long-term strategic aspect, it will also be beneficial to the Ming Dynasty without any harm.&1t;/p>

Whether it is saving military expenditure or eliminating hidden dangers, or developing commodity markets and raw material origin, the Ming Dynasty had the motivation to destroy Mongolia.&1t;/p>

So from the beginning of the battlefield, it is not for the sake of great success.&1t;/p>

Of course, this real military expenditure may become relatively large. After all, large-scale construction of construction on the grassland and large-scale construction of railways and towns is all made with money.&1t;/p>

However, as long as the railway is repaired, it will be useful in the future. It can be said to be an investment, and it is obviously not a big loss.&1t;/p>

Mongolia's defeat is a foregone conclusion, the question is how long it will take for the emperor to end the war and let the Ming army withdraw from Mongolia.&1t;/p>

Obviously, this war will not last too long, because Mongolia was defeated again. The 50,000 cavalry led by Wang Guoxiong finally caught the main force of Mongolia. With a violent blow, the main force of Mongolia was completely defeated.&1t;/p>

The defeated Mongolian army soon fled scattered on the grassland.&1t;/p>

Many Mongolian cavalry did not go to meet with Lin Danhan, but went back to their tribe, or simply wanted the Ming army to surrender.&1t;/p>

After years of contact, the Mongols also understood the Ming army's policy of dealing with prisoners. The Ming army would not take their lives against the captured Mongols, at least they could hold their lives. If their tribe also surrendered to the Ming army, they would be free.&1t;/p>

Lin Danhan was obviously defeated. At this time, many Mongolian cavalry tribes, as long as they were not transferred, basically surrendered to the Ming army in order to be a foregone conclusion. These Ming army could send them back so that they could not search everywhere on the grassland.&1t;/p>

Under such circumstances, the troops following Lin Danhan are getting fewer and fewer.&1t;/p>

Although the Ming army did not know where Lin Danhan was hiding, they knew that after Lin Danhan was defeated, they would definitely escape to Central Asia. And they must have brought a large number of cavalry. Among the Mongolian cavalry that fled to Central Asia, the largest number of troops must be the troops led by Lin Danhan.&1t;/p>

The Ming army's pursuit lasted for nearly three days, and it was the most important thing to reach the Tanguwulianghai area.&1t;/p>

Lin Danhan had fled from the Mongolian grasslands from the narrow valley of the Tanguwulianghai and fled to Central Asia in a panic. There was no need for the Ming army to pursue it. The Ming army had already won this war.&1t;/p>

What the Ming army wants is the Mongolian grassland, and Lin Danhan is not very concerned about the life and death of Lin Danhan. What the Ming army needs to do next is to close the door and fight the dogs and completely eliminate Mongolia's participating military forces.&1t;/p>

Wang Guoxiong directly occupied the narrow valley leading to Central Asia and arranged the machine gun here. As long as the terrain is arranged with a machine gun, it is basically a one-man who can pass through thousands of men.&1t;/p>

Mongolia has declared its end.&1t;/p>

Next is the sweeping environment.&1t;/p>

Wang Guoxiong then cleared the battle results. More than 50,000 Mongolian cavalry were killed, while nearly 60,000 captured Mongolian cavalry.&1t;/p>

A large number of Mongolian cavalry were also scattered throughout the grassland.&1t;/p>

After confirming the results of the battle, Wang Guoxiong immediately sent the battle situation back to the command center.&1t;/p>

When Wang Guoxiong's battle report was returned to the command center, Zhu Youxiao was overjoyed.&1t;/p>

"There is no suspense in this war. Lin Danhan has been driven to Central Asia. It is impossible for Mongolia to organize any decent resistance forces. The railway construction line can be extended, and there is no need to build so many towns. Just build a city in two hundred miles." Sun Chengzong suggested to Zhu Youxiao.&1t;/p>

"What I said is reasonable. Just do it." Zhu Youxiao agreed to this suggestion and immediately changed the construction plan of the railway and city.&1t;/p>

Then Zhu Youxiao personally led more than 200,000 Ming troops and began a large-scale mobilization on the grassland. The first area to be swept was the eastern part of the Mongolian grassland.&1t;/p>

There has been no sweep before, and many Mongolian tribes are grazing in this area. Lin Danhan did not have time to transfer these tribes.&1t;/p>

This sweep became Zhu Youxiao's spring outing, and it didn't seem like a war. The tribes in the eastern Mongolian grassland surrendered one after another under the sweep of the Ming army.&1t;/p>

These surrendered Mongolians were soon taken to an area that had been controlled by the Ming army for resettlement.&1t;/p>

The resettlement policy of the Ming Dynasty is very simple. Also like the previous Mongolian resettlement policy, each Mongolian household allocated 5,000 mu of grassland. If the conditions are worse, the grassland can be allocated to them.&1t;/p>

However, this time, the Mongolian aristocrats were no longer used to manage these Mongolian herders. Instead, the Ming Dynasty directly managed these Mongolian herders. Tax collection was also officially implemented by the Ming Dynasty, and it was a policy of one ten tax. The pastures had to be rotated grazed every year. The livestock raised was mainly sheep, and the number of goats must be controlled below five to avoid destroying the pastures.&1t;/p>

As for the Mongolian nobles of those tribes, they were locked up by the Ming army. The Ming Dynasty would no longer allocate any ruling interests to these people to prevent them from forming separatist forces.&1t;/p>

"Your Majesty, the yellow lamb is ready, you can try it."&1t;/p>

"Dear friends, try it together."&1t;/p>

On the grassland, Zhu Youxiao and a group of ministers roasted a few yellow sheep, and the whole process of personal expedition was relaxed and pleasant. The more delicious thing on the grassland was yellow lamb.&1t;/p>

The meat of ordinary wild animals is not very delicious, but it has more or less a strange taste, not as good as the meat of domestic animals.&1t;/p>

However, yellow mutton is very delicious. Since ancient times, the Han people have regarded yellow mutton as a good thing. After a large number of hunting, yellow mutton became extinct in the Central Plains, but there were still yellow mutton in Mongolia, which made Zhu Youxiao have a great time.&1t;/p>

On the other hand, the Ming army's large-scale mobilization caused a large number of tribes to put down their weapons and surrender to the Ming army. The efficiency of mobilization was still very fast.&1t;/p>

After all, people can run away on the grassland, but cattle and sheep cannot hide them.&1t;/p>

Under the intensive search of the Ming army, those tribes could not hide at all. As long as they were exposed, the Ming army's raid would arrive soon.&1t;/p>

The scale of railway construction by the Ming army on the grassland was also larger, and the east-west railway line was directly started, and the efficiency of human resources utilization was greatly increased.&1t;/p>

Basically, the railway trunk lines in the entire Mongolia region can be repaired within one year, and some railway branch lines can be built at the same time.&1t;/p>

The victory of the war also allowed the Ming Dynasty to seize a large amount of spoils, a large number of cattle, sheep, horses, and captured many Mongolians.&1t;/p>

However, those cattle and sheep were still distributed to Mongolian herders to resume production. If you greed for the immediate benefits and destroy the production on the grassland, it would be more than worth the loss.&1t;/p>

After all, the grassland economy is still relatively important to the Ming Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty needs raw materials such as wool and leather produced on the grassland.&1t;/p>

Only when production resumes can we continue to milk the Ming Dynasty.&1t;/p>

However, a lot of war horses were seized, which were real trophys. Some gold, silver, jewelry and other things were seized, all of which were the vegetable markets of Mongolian nobles.&1t;/p>

In this war, except for the Mongolian nobles who followed Lin Danhan to Central Asia, other Mongolian nobles will be beaten up by the Ming Dynasty in the future.&1t;/p>

At this time, the Mongolian tribes in the eastern part of the Mongolian grassland had basically no armed forces to resist the Ming army. After nearly two months of sweeping, the grassland area was basically swept away by Zhu Youxiao, and most of the Mongolian tribes were swept away.&1t;/p>

This entire grassland was also included in the notification area by the Ming army.&1t;/p>

Zhu Youxiao transferred a large number of officials and civil servants from the rear and began to resettle these Mongolian herdsmen. In the future, these Mongolian herdsmen no longer existed in the tribal model, but were independent in the family ranch model and owned their own property.&1t;/p>

When the Ming army swept into western Mongolia next, it was resisted by some resistance forces. Those resistance forces were the Mongolian cavalry that had collapsed from the battlefield. Many Mongolian nobles were making the final resistance.&1t;/p>

If the Ming army wants to clear the western Mongolia region, it has to rely on railways and city networks to carry out continuous sweeps.&1t;/p>

Zhu Youxiao was determined to establish a new order in Mongolia. The Mongolian nobles became the greatest victims of interests, which is also the reason why the war continues.,&1t;/p>

If Zhu Youxiao was willing to give these Mongolian nobles a way out and give them some ruling interests, even if not many, a large number of Mongolian nobles would have expressed their submission to the Ming Dynasty, and the war would have basically ended directly.&1t;/p>

The Ming Dynasty, which was able to crush these Mongolian nobles in terms of strength, no longer needed to make any compromise. After Zhu Youxiao swept the eastern part of Mongolia, he immediately deployed his military force to western Mongolia. Relying on the supply of railway supplies, he began to carry out a continuous large-scale mobilization in the grassland area in western Mongolia.&1t;/p>

Another great victory was sent back to the pass, and this time the whole country of Ming Dynasty was completely shocked. The Mongolian Khan was actually driven out of the Mongolian grassland and ran to Central Asia?&1t;/p>

The Ming Dynasty's war against Mongolia has basically won?&1t;/p>

The Ming Dynasty's occupation of Mongolian grasslands has become a fact. In the future, Mongolia will become a province of the Ming Dynasty?&1t;/p>

With these doubts, people around the country who are paying attention to this war continue to pay attention to the direction of the war situation.&1t;/p>

In the middle of the fifth month of the lunar calendar in the 13th year of the Apocalypse, the railway in the Ming Dynasty finally reached the later generations of Ulaanbaatar, which is the new royal city of Lin Danhan.&1t;/p>

The Mongolians here have run away.&1t;/p>

When the railway was built here, the Ming Dynasty had already controlled the grasslands in eastern Mongolia and swallowed half of Mongolia.&1t;/p>

Next is a comprehensive sweep westward.&1t;/p>

The railway quickly played a huge role, and the Ming army could obtain sufficient supplies through the railway. The towns along the railway were very effective in preventing the sudden attacks and harassment of the Mongols.&1t;/p>

It is only a matter of time before the Ming army takes over the entire western Mongolian army.&1t;/p>

This war has been completely won by the Ming army. (To be continued.)&1t;/p>
