Chapter 112 The Battle of Dongshengwei

Yexian is very happy here.

Suddenly someone came to report: "The Ming army has arrived, and it came from Kaiping, with about 30,000 cavalry. The leader is Guo Deng, and one of them comes from Panguan, Shanxi, with about 20,000 cavalry. However, they marched slowly and walked next to the Yellow River. There were ships of all sizes and large and small on the Yellow River and supplies."

As soon as I heard it, I knew that both sides were not easy to deal with.

Needless to say, Guo Deng was the Marquis of Wuding, the Ming Dynasty.

With similar cavalry, Yexian dared not say that he could win the battle. As for the reinforcements in Shanxi Town, it seemed like soft persimmons, but Shanxi Town was also very self-aware.

They marched against the Yellow River.

The Yellow River from Dongshengwei to Panguan is very difficult to travel. There are many torrents and shallows.

But so what?

Since Zhu Qizhen has spoken, he must be able to do it.

The Dongshengwei can be built soon, and the transportation of materials on the Yellow River is indispensable.

So there is a fleet of ships above the Yellow River.

The number is not large, but it can become a support for the cavalry in Shanxi Town at critical moments.

If the army of Wassar went south, perhaps the cavalry in Shanxi Town would camp with the backs of water. With the support of the ships, Wassar might not be able to fight quickly.

Now, the areas north of Xuanda, Daning and south of Kaiping are the places where the imperial court has the most garrisons. Even the Jing camp has 50,000 cavalry stationed in this area. In a short period of time, it is still possible to draw 100,000 cavalry.

This is why I did not lead the army south in one day. Because if I did not want to fight the Ming army with 70,000 to 80,000 cavalry, it would not be much different from 20,000 to 30,000 cavalry.

I originally wanted to do some more things, but I couldn't defeat the Ming army brigade, and I could still fight some small teams. Now I have obtained the treasure of Silage Method.

He immediately adjusted the importance in his heart. The most important thing was to bring a group of people who knew the silage method to Mobei, and the second was to push back the 50,000 or 60,000 captured back to Mobei.

Everything is put into pockets.

Therefore, Yesen did not miss it at all, and immediately retreated from the Dongshengwei, crossed the vast sea, and returned to the north of the desert.

Before leaving, he accidentally looked west, but saw a continuous mountain, nowhere else, but the flying general in Longcheng was there, and it was not called Huma to cross the Yinshan Mountain.

How could he feel uncomfortable in his heart?

Then he suppressed this feeling and led the team away.

A few days later, tens of thousands of cavalry rushed to the Dongsheng Acropolis and still couldn't catch up.

However, although the Battle of Dongshengwei ended, the aftermath of this battle was not so easy to end.

During this battle, Li Wen did not get a head, but was kidnapped by the thorns. The territory of Dongshengwei was empty.

The issue of Li Wen's attack caused strong debate in the court. Many nobles believed that Li Wen was incompetent in defending the territory, which affected the people under his rule, and he would seize the title and be imprisoned. However, the civil servants led by Wang Wen believed that Li Wen was alone and could protect the city was a great achievement. As for the Mongolian tribes who had just surrendered, they were unquestionable, and Li Wen's handling was not wrong.

This is actually the sequelae of Li Wen's statement that the Li family was in Xining and replacing the Li family with an earl.

Before, the holy family was in full swing, and the ministers were unwilling to face the emperor head-on, but now that Li Wen had committed a crime, he would naturally take the blame.

Let people know that some things cannot be done.

As for why the civil servants support it?

Because this decision was made by Yu Qian.

Although Yu Qian is not in the center, it does not mean that Yu Qian has no allies in the center.

Wang Wen, the Minister of Personnel, served in Shaanxi and was very familiar with the situation in Shaanxi. He also hated the situation in some local garrisons.

So support Yu Qian's approach.

If you can get rid of military power with a glass of wine and get in touch with the privileges of military officers in some local garrisons, many civil servants are willing to do so.

Although Wang Ji was not in good health and became ill all year round, this incident still happened and supported Li Wen.

When Zhu Qizhen faced this situation, he knew very well that Li Wen's affairs had become an eye for a storm.

This is also the inevitable result of Zhu Qizhen's implementation of the Northern Expedition while implementing the reform of the garrison station. The layers of contradictions broke out only at this time, and Zhu Qizhen's decision was a little late.

As for why Shi Heng jumped out to support him.

The reason is very simple. Among the orthodox nobles, Shi Heng's appearance is the worst. He has special interests in Haixi. The Shi family is famous in the ginseng market in Guanzhong.

Although Shi Heng was a newcomer, his butt was already sitting on the side of the original military officer.

The reason why he made this choice was very simple.

Shi Heng was born and died, just for his glory and wealth. How to maintain his glory and wealth is like a local garrison. It seems to be the land of the country, but in fact it is the land that each family has already divided.

Shi Heng also occupied a lot of military farmland in Haixi and became the private land of the Shi family.

Moreover, other orthodox nobles are relatively well-founded. For example, Yang Hong, his ancestors were also founding heroes. He had his own political sensitivity.

Maybe he may not be willing to give up the interests here, but he also has other interests to support him. Or Yang Hong cares more about the Yang family occupying a place in the Ming army for generations, rather than some money or something.

But Shi Heng couldn't do this.

Of course, Shi Heng also won more battles and developed a posture of no other than me. He felt that the war was about to come, and the court would definitely not do anything to him. He was definitely Shi Heng's plan to defeat the twatt.

Faced with these changes in various parties, Zhu Qizhen silently thought about his policies.

Zhu Qizhen used the thorn to stir up the army and complete his own reforms. Is it right or wrong?

The battle with Wasai has caused many people to grow their authority rapidly, and Shi Heng is a typical example. He originally thought Shi Heng could become his helper, but at this moment, the newly trained general seemed to have his own mind.

But he still felt that his method was not wrong.

There is nothing else. If you don’t fight, who knows how effective the so-called military reform is? If you don’t fight, and you’re so invested in the military, the civil servants will not be able to get through it. If you don’t fight, will Zhu Qizhen’s backlash from the military system be eliminated?

There will still be some, but the performance is different.

But Shi Heng really disappointed him.

Zhu Qizhen sighed in his heart and said, "What a pity Shi Heng." A trace of light flashed in his eyes. The name Shi Heng was remembered by Zhu Qizhen.

Traitors are more abominable than heretics.

Of course, Shi Heng was not wrong. When the war was about to be fought, Zhu Qizhen decided not to touch the general, and Shi Heng would still need to fight the tile thorns. Therefore, the handling of this matter requires methods and methods.

First of all, how is Li Wen's performance?

It can be described as mediocre.

Therefore, Li Wen is not suitable for the border generals. Zhu Qizhen decided to punish Li Wen for relevant punishment, remove Li Wen's official position as Dongshengwei and transfer it to Taipu Temple.

He said he used his specialty in raising horses, but he was asked to sit on the bench.

Nothing else, most of the work in Taipu Temple has been taken away by other yamen.

First, Taipu Temple was fostered in the homes of the people, and now all have been transferred to the strait system by the Ministry of War. Hundreds of thousands of horses have been maintained from Beijing to Zunhua, Beijing to Xuanfu, Beijing to Datong, Zunhua to Daning, Xuanfu to Datong, Tengxian to Suqian.

As for Tengxian to Suqian, when the canal was interrupted, a temporary road was built to maintain the transportation of goods from north to south. Although the canal is open now, this road is still in operation.

After Cao Nai took office, he allowed the business movement to travel, becoming the first road to generate benefits in the Ming Dynasty.

With so many places to use horses, the horses that Taipu Temple used to foster the people were almost out of reach.

In other places, Taipu Temple is still operating normally, but overall, these Taipu Temples are more subject to local governors and governors, and Taipu Temple in the capital is not under the jurisdiction of the capital.

That is, Li Wen sat on the bench, so of course he should give him the title and treatment.

Zhu Qizhen seemed to be unbiased and ended this matter with a lively political attitude.

Zhu Qizhen has been preparing for this war for so many years. Before the war, the court was mainly stable. Zhu Qizhen can temporarily give in to all situations.

As long as you can win the Watshu and have a brilliant victory, Zhu Qizhen can naturally settle the scores slowly for other things.

After all, is the future long?
