Chapter 154 First

From Kaiping Old City to the north, you can see endless yellow sand.

This long stretch of yellow sand divides the grassland into southern desert and northern desert.

This desert is the Gobi Desert, the second largest desert in Asia and the fifth largest desert in the world, including later parts of Inner Mongolia and a large part of southern Mongolia.

It is this desert with a radius of 1.2 million square kilometers that divides Mongolia into southern desert and northern desert.

The defense line during the Yongle period directly pushed the Ming Dynasty's border to the southern edge of the Gobi Desert.

The Gobi Desert is also the source of sandstorms in Beijing. But generally speaking, there are mostly bare rocks in the Gobi Desert and there are relatively few deserts.

This is what countless literati call the desert. It is also the nightmare of countless Han generals in the Central Plains.

After crossing hundreds of miles of desert, we reach Mobei.

And Mobei is Wac's world.

The Lingbei Province of the Yuan Dynasty was the foundation of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, but now it is the foundation of Wasi. Even in history, after Ye Xian died and Wasi's hegemony collapsed, Mobei's rule was still maintained for decades.

.Only after knowing that Dayan Khan of the Golden Family rose again and defeated Wasi, Mobei was recaptured.

This is why it is said that Dayan Khan is the leader of the ZTE of the Golden Family.

In the large tent in Waci Mobei.

Tuo Tuo Bu Hua was sitting, and next to her was Tuo Tuo Bu Hua's younger brother, Dorji. Apart from this younger brother, Tuo Tuo Bu Hua no longer had any caring people in the big tent.

The rest of the people are all Washi nobles.

A man in his forties was sitting in Tuotuo Buhua. But his posture was calm and composed, as if he was the owner of this big tent.

The rest of the Wasi generals, such as Ye Xian's confidant generals, Asi Zhiyuan and others, all sat quietly.

Of course, their honesty is completely different from that of the Ming Dynasty.

In the Ming Dynasty, regardless of civil and military affairs, the sitting posture in front of the emperor was completely standard, and no one dared to go beyond it. However, the political tradition of the Mongols was much different.

Each of these Mongolian nobles had soldiers and horses, some were sitting cross-legged, some were supporting the ground with one hand, and they could be used in any sitting position. There was a small table in front of each of them, and it was covered with barbecued meat, which was tender and tender.

The mutton tastes very good. Each one seems to be eating it with a knife, but his ears are focused on the conversation between Ye Xian and Tuo Tuo Bu Hua.

Tuotuo Buhua asked, "Grand Master, this time the Ming Dynasty sent Yang Hong north. Will the Grand Master just let them go back like this?"

Ye first touched his Mongolian mustache slightly and said, "What does the Great Khan mean to start a war with the Ming Dynasty today?"

Tuotuo Buhua said, "What did the Grand Master say? It's just that this is not in line with the Grand Master's usual ambitions?"

Ye Xian laughed loudly and said, "Great Khan, you don't know something. I will naturally go south to support the Great Khan into the capital, and capture the south."

The dynasty is full of flowers and flowers, but things have their own priorities."

"After the death of Emperor Yongle of the Southern Dynasty, the three emperors of Yi and Yi were connected for more than ten years. Now she is just a little kid in power. She is just the daughter-in-law of Emperor Yongle, but she is not a vegetarian. There is also Zhang Fu, a famous general in the Southern Dynasty."

"The Great Khan also came from the Southern Dynasty. He also knew how strong the Southern Dynasty's soldiers and horses were. The strength of the Southern Dynasty's soldiers and horses was still there, but it was getting worse day by day. All he had to do was wait for those veteran generals to die, and the Southern Dynasty would be a star.

It’s a soft persimmon.”

"Furthermore, the Southern Dynasty had a million-strong country, and we, the Yuan Dynasty's 440,000 households, are indeed a bit weak. We must first capture the Western Region and cross Liaodong. When the time comes, Chagatai and Wuliangha will be our left and right wings.

The army entered the pass from Datong and went straight to Dadu. That was the time to take action."

"Before we do it again, we must let him. The more they despise me, Dayuan, the better. It is best to finally be able to let the Southern Dynasty army out of the fortress and win a decisive victory over Mobei."

"So, when Yang Hong comes, we not only cannot move him, but also send someone to deliver some gifts to show our respect for the imperial court."

Tuotuo Buhua laughed and said, "The Grand Master is wise."

Tuotuo Buhua felt very unhappy in her heart.

Sitting in his position, looking at Ye Xian every day, I feel like I have a sharp edge on my back. But even though he has many followers, they are far behind compared with Ye Xian. His life has always been

It was under the threat of Yexian.

He also had to show respect to Ye Xian, so one can imagine his distress.

When Tuotuo Buhua said this, other Mongolian nobles in the big tent all said, "The grand master is wise."

Ye Xian's expression remained unchanged, he ate the meat slowly, slowly applied force on the knife in his hand, and coughed slightly. The tent immediately became silent.

Ye first said, "Yang Hong's matter is a small matter, but there is a big thing in front of me. This year, my marriage with Wu Liangha has been completed, and there is no threat to the Northeast. Hami and other tribes were originally my old in-laws, but now they are

You are unwilling to surrender to me. This is extremely abominable. I have made up my mind to send troops next year to conquer Hami. After you go back, gather your troops and start the expedition."

"Yes." The Mongolian nobles in the big tent said in unison.

Immediately, as if he remembered something, he said to Tuotuo Buhua, "What do you think, Khan?"

What else can I say if I don’t take it off? I can only say, “Very good, very good.”

He first nailed the hand-relieving knife to the mutton with his backhand, and nailed the mutton and wooden plates to the tables below. He said, "Since the Great Khan has made the decision, let's follow this king to see the battle formation."

Tuo Tuo Bu Hua naturally did not dare to refuse.

He laughed a few times and left with the people around him.

Tuo Tuo Fu Hua's face changed slightly. He looked around and called his younger brother Dorji over and said, "Tell Akito that Ye Xian's target is the Seven Guards of Kansai."

."

"Yes." Dorzi said.

Tuotaobuhua thought for a while and called Dorji back and said, "Forget it, there's no need to tell Mingren."

Dorzi was a little strange and said, "Brother, why?"

Tuo Tuo Bu Hua said, "If Ming people don't suffer some hardships, they won't know how powerful Ye Xian is. If they don't know how powerful Ye Xian is, they won't spend a lot of money to support our brothers."

"The Battle of the Seven Guards of Kansai."

"I hope Akito loses miserably, the more miserably the better."

A war is brewing on the grassland. But this one has nothing to do with Yang Hong.

Yang Hong repaired in Kaiping for two days, and then headed southeast. This direction was towards Daningwei. The farther to the southeast, the more uneven the terrain became.

This area is the southern edge of the desert. Although the mountains are not high, they are enough to block the wind and sand, otherwise this area would be part of the desert.

Yang Hong met Wa Ci's envoy halfway and donated thirty sheep.

Of course, thirty sheep is not important, what is important is Wa Ci’s attitude.

Although Yang Hong did not relax his vigilance, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. But he would soon face a new enemy, because Daning was different from Kaiping.

Kaiping gave up during the Xuande period, which was only a dozen years ago, while Daning gave up back to the Battle of Jingnan. Some people say that the three guards of Wuliangha followed Taizong in Jingnan and rewarded their merits with Daning.

This is nonsense.

Although the Gein court had no intention of rebuilding the Daning Guard, it never allowed the Mongols to graze in the Daning Guard area. But now, it has become a fact.

If the Kaiping area has become the grazing land of Waca, then the Daning area has become the grazing land of Wuliangha.

And unlike Wa Ci, Wa Ci owns Mo Bei and has quite a lot of room for maneuver. The Monan area is temporarily out of the way.

But although Wu Liangha also has other room for maneuver, the racecourse in Daningwei is not something they can give up easily.

Therefore, Yang Hong discovered that the closer he was to Daning Guard, the more Mongolians he encountered.

Of course, they are not so-called Mongolian herders.

First of all, the Mongolian people are all sick. When you meet Mongolian herdsmen, they are not much different from Mongolian soldiers. Even just by looking at their clothes, you can't tell the difference between Mongolian herdsmen and Mongolian soldiers.

They are all equally dirty, dark, greasy, and have a stale smell. This seems to be due to not bathing all year round, so the Han people call them Sao Tatars.

They appeared around the army in an organized and structured manner. Although they did not dare to come into contact with the army, their aloof attitude could actually be regarded as an encounter in military terms.

For a moment, everyone in the army focused their attention on Yang Hong.
