First Prince of Ming Dynasty Chapter 86

  Chapter 86 Northern Yuan Orthodoxy

  Early the next morning, the army pulled out of camp and set off, and the powers of many generals in the army were once again dispatched.

  Li Wenzhong's power suddenly swelled, and most of the power of the front, left, and right armies was attributed to him.

  Zhu Biao's central army is under the command of Mu Ying, and the rear army is Zhu Biao's private land. No matter who it is, don't even think about intervening in the logistics.

   Along the way, apart from meeting Zhu Biao, Chang Yuchun seldom went out to the right army tent. After all, Li Wenzhong's prestige was still somewhat insufficient.

   After walking for more than half a month, they finally approached Youzhou, and the army officially entered the land of Yanyun.

  At the same time, Zhu Biao also received news from the imperial court that Tang He, the king of Dongou, was deprived of his title for forming a party for personal gain and breaking the law, and was driven to Tongzhou to deal with Japanese pirates.

   Zhu Biao had guessed this a long time ago. Tang He's meritorious service was not enough to be crowned king. He was Zhu Yuanzhang's tool to stand up.

  The political situation in the DPRK was somewhat chaotic. Zhu Biao and Xu Da had already taken away most of the nobles, and the rest were Li Shanchang's civil servant group.

  Zhu Biao was not worried about the situation in the DPRK and China. It was easy for the founder Taizu to play tricks on his subjects, but he always felt that the road was a bit too peaceful. Shanxi Wang Baobao didn't even send Qingqi to harass him.

  Zhu Biao told Quan Xu who was riding a horse to protect him: "Go and let Lan Yu lead Qian Qisu to Peiping, and let Song Guogong Feng Sheng come to see me!"

  Zhu Biao frowned. He had already arrived here. Even if Song Guogong Feng Sheng didn't come in person, he should send a deputy to meet him.

   And there is no news of Changxing Hou Geng Bingwen.

  Zhu Biao felt that it was very dangerous since he stepped into Yanyun. After thinking about it, he wanted to order: "The whole army should stop, and let the generals above the third rank come to the camp of the Chinese army."

  Following the waving of the command flag of the Chinese army, the entire army stopped slowly.

  All the generals in the army began to gather for the central army, and they all arrived in a short while. A group of people surrounded an open space, and Zhu Biao led Liu Jin over.

  All the generals have solemn faces. They are all veterans in the battlefield, and they have already found out that something is wrong.

  Chang Yuchun said: "Feng Sheng is calm and prudent, there is no reason not to send people to support the army, I am afraid that something happened in Beiping!"

  Li Wenzhong said: "After the disastrous defeat of the Yuan court, it is not bad to be able to gather 100,000 soldiers and horses now. It is too whimsical to want to regain Peiping without 200,000 troops."

  Liu Jin spread out the map of Yanyun on the ground, and Mu Ying pointed to the map and said, "What if all the other troops in Yanyun's land abandon their garrison and come to besiege Beiping City?"

  Chang Yuchun thought for a while and said: "It can only be the false emperor of the Yuan court or his prince, otherwise no one can gather the generals of these separatist regimes.

   Liu Bowen on the side said: "They are aware of our intention of the Northern Expedition. If we don't gather forces, we can only be defeated by us one by one. Between life and death, we can naturally make a choice."

  Liu Bowen paused for a moment and continued: "The fact that they escaped our attention means that they must have gathered elites and sneaked into the grassland under the cover of night, and gathered under the hands of a very prestigious person."

  Mu Ying is still a little puzzled: "Even if it is besieged by an army of 200,000, it will not cause Song Guogong to send no news. Beiping is so strong. As long as we stick to the city, we can definitely come to our army to help."

  Zhu Biao said calmly: "The inside should be combined with the outside. If you open a city gate by surprise, you can indeed take Beiping directly."

  Zhu Biao was already certain. After all, if anyone stormed Beiping City, it would not take a few months, and they would not even try to get in with 100,000 lives.

  Then it can only be that there are ghosts in the city, that's right, after all, they withdrew, so how could they not leave a dark hand behind.

  Nanxiong Hou Zhaoyong said coldly: "After taking Beiping, the city should be massacred for three days. Those families have served in the Beiyuan court for almost generations, so they may have one heart with us."

  Zhu Biao sighed, not to mention the north, even many families in the south still think that the Northern Yuan is the orthodox, because they don't actually have a national concept.

  The national concept known to later generations was only gradually known to the Chinese after 1900. During the "Anti-Japanese War" period, the Chinese nation began to be a collective name for all ethnic groups in China.

The "four kinds of people" phenomenon in the Mongol Empire and the early Yuan Dynasty was in the middle and late Yuan Dynasty. Because of the implementation of the "Sinicization policy", such as the imperial examination, the large-scale entry of Han officials, and the relatively gentle economic policy of the Yuan Dynasty, it was considered by most of the people. Accepted by the family.

  The Ming Dynasty started as the Red Scarf Army, a group of rioters. In the eyes of the southern aristocratic family, they were unworthy of the stage. Up to now, they have refused their children to serve in the Ming Dynasty.

  In fact, although Confucianism has the so-called distinction between Hua and Barbarians, its priority is far lower than the righteousness of monarchs and ministers, that is, the first thing Confucian children should do is to be loyal to the monarch.

  This trend actually appeared during the Southern and Northern Dynasties. At that time, it was very common for the northern minority monarchs to use Han ministers for social governance, and Han ministers were also loyal to the minority monarchs.

As far as the situation at the end of the Yuan Dynasty is concerned, the Yuan Dynasty was an orthodox dynasty, while Zhu Yuanzhang was a traitor and a traitor. Under the influence of the idea of ​​"loyalty to the emperor", scholars in the Yuan Dynasty naturally wanted to be loyal to the orthodox court and resist Zhu Yuanzhang who was a traitor and a traitor. , which is understandable.

   This is true even in the south that the Ming Dynasty actually ruled, not to mention the land of Yanyun that has been lost for hundreds of years.

  Zhu Biaoxin must have opened his mouth to order: "Since the situation is unclear, the army will shrink immediately, and all scouts will be sent out. Zhao Yong, you lead people out to find a place suitable for defense."

At this moment, Lan Yu led a few men covered in blood and ran over. When they saw Zhu Biao, they knelt down and shouted: "Your Highness, the last general Huang Bin, Song Guogong sent the last general to ask for help. The night before yesterday Hu Mei, Marquis of Linchuan, rebelled, and together with the noble family of Beiping, opened the city gate privately, and led the 200,000 army of the prince of the Northern Yuan Dynasty into the city, now half of Beiping has been lost, Song Guogong is desperately resisting, please help quickly, Your Highness!"

   All the generals frowned, Zhu Biao frowned and kept thinking.

   Can Huang Bin be trusted? It may be too late for the army to leave for Peiping, do you still want to go? In case Peiping is just a bait, their real intention may be his 200,000 troops.

  Chang Yuchun and Liu Bowen looked at each other, and they knew it in their hearts. They must not rush to help Beiping with a large army. If the army is exhausted, they still have the ability to fight recklessly with the same 200,000 army.

  If Zhu Biao made a wrong decision, the two of them would dissuade them, but they believed that Zhu Biao would figure it out.

  Zhu Biao breathed out a foul breath: "It is impossible for the army to rush to Beiping. Lan Yu Muying and you two led 50,000 cavalry to meet Song Guogong and let him give up Beiping to preserve his strength!"
