Ming Dynasty: The Jingnan Rebellion has just been successful, and Zhu Yuanzhang has been resurrected
Chapter 176 Your Majesty, we've arrived!
Chapter 176 Your Majesty, we've arrived!
"Swallow the Ming Emperor? Isn't that a bit too crazy?"
"Although it is quite bold, this is indeed a very good opportunity, and it would be a real pity to miss it."
“That’s right. The Ming army has come from afar and is exhausted. If we miss this opportunity, we may never have another one.”
"Gentlemen, I must say that if we can capture the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, we might be able to turn the tide of our current unfavorable situation."
"The Ming emperor is so arrogant, he doesn't take us seriously at all. I think we should give it a try. What if we succeed?"
"Who says otherwise? If we succeed, we'll make a fortune. Even if we fail, our losses won't be too great. The Ming emperor is trying to rescue Zhu Quan. If all else fails, we can just let him take the man away."
"Such a golden opportunity has come my way. I think I should give it a try no matter what. This kind of opportunity is truly rare and hard to come by. If I miss it, I may never have another chance."
"The Ming emperor is so eager to rescue Zhu Quan, probably because he wants to take the opportunity to win over the hearts of the people. Of course, it is more likely that he is arrogant. After all, Zhu Di was able to run wild in our Northern Yuan. He defeated Zhu Di. I think we should let him know how powerful we are."
"."
After a brief silence, the Northern Yuan generals spoke up one after another.
Everyone agreed that they shouldn't let this opportunity that had fallen from the sky pass them by.
The Ming emperor and the exhausted army—these two things combined were incredibly tempting, and if successful, they would reap immeasurable rewards.
The Northern Yuan had been suppressed too severely by the Ming Dynasty. Many of them dreamed of restoring the glory of the Yuan Dynasty and once again marching south to occupy the Central Plains.
Of course, many people knew that the Ming Dynasty was very powerful, so they only dared to suppress their thoughts.
To everyone's surprise, Zhu Yunwen is now giving him a chance.
Benya Shili hesitated and said, "Grand Tutor, this is far too risky. Why don't we just return to the grasslands?"
Although the opportunity before him was indeed very rare, he was not too keen on taking the risk.
The main reason was his previous unpleasantness with Arughtai, which made him realize that although he was the Great Khan of the Northern Yuan, this was largely due to Arughtai. Without Arughtai, whether he would still be the Great Khan of the Northern Yuan was truly an unknown.
Furthermore, it was Arughtai's suggestion to take action against the Ming emperor. If it succeeded, it would naturally benefit Arughtai the most, while for him it would seem to be of little consequence. In fact, if it failed, he would have to take responsibility for the matter, after all, he was the Khan of the Northern Yuan.
The benefits are negligible, but the responsibilities are immense. How could he possibly agree to that?
“Great Khan, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. It would be such a pity to give it up,” said Dorjeebo.
“That’s right, that’s right, Great Khan. Such a windfall opportunity should be tried no matter what. If it really doesn’t work out, it’s not too late to give up,” Taiping said.
Even Mahmud couldn't help but say, "Great Khan, Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, weary army, if we win this battle, the benefits we will gain will be immeasurable. We should give it a try."
Benjamin looked around.
"Great Khan, give it a try!"
"Great Khan, this is a golden opportunity that we must not let slip by!"
"Great Khan, if we succeed, we might be able to head south. Even if we can't, we can still change our current difficult situation."
"Great Khan, this is a golden opportunity, a chance that will never come again!"
"."
Everyone spoke up, their faces filled with longing.
The opportunity was too good to pass up, and they were really unwilling to give it up.
Arughtai said, “Great Khan, the soldiers are eager for battle. I think we must not back down at this time, otherwise we may be suppressed by the Ming Dynasty forever!”
Although he didn't know what Benyashiri was thinking, there was no way he could just run away. If he could capture the Ming Emperor directly, his status would rise to an unbelievable level. How could he give up such an opportunity? Impossible!
Benyashiri was silent for a moment, then said in a deep voice, "Since the Grand Tutor wants to fight, then let's fight and let the Ming Dynasty know how powerful our Northern Yuan is."
He didn't care about morale, but he couldn't ignore Arutai's attitude. He could tell that Arutai wanted to fight. In this situation, if he insisted on running away, he would only lose face in the end.
When he disagreed with Arughtai, Arughtai would never tolerate him. He hadn't understood this before, but not long ago he suddenly saw it clearly.
"The Great Khan is wise!" Arughtai exclaimed.
He could also see that Benyashiri didn't want to fight, but at this moment, Benyashiri's attitude needed to be sidelined, because he wanted to fight!
"The Great Khan is wise!" everyone exclaimed.
Benjamin felt a surge of frustration, but there was nothing he could do.
Although he is not a puppet now, he has not commanded many troops and has been under Arutai's control. He is not a puppet, but he is almost one.
"Grand Tutor, you can make the arrangements as you see fit. I'm a little tired and want to go and rest first," Benyashiri said with a yawn and a wave of his hand.
After saying that, he walked away, leaving everything to Arutai to arrange.
Although everyone outwardly obeyed his orders, who couldn't see that he was being manipulated by Arughtai? Even if no one said anything, he was still very uncomfortable inside.
"Respectfully seeing off the Great Khan!" Arughtai bowed slightly, not paying much attention to Benyashiri's departure.
"Respectfully seeing off the Great Khan!" the crowd exclaimed.
After a while.
Benjamin left.
Arughtai coughed twice to draw everyone's attention to himself and said, "Gentlemen, although the troops led by Emperor Zhu Yunwen of the Ming Dynasty are very tired, we must not be careless. You must understand one thing: even someone as strong as Zhu Di was defeated by Zhu Yunwen."
Although the event happened very suddenly, this battle, if fought well, would be extremely important for the Northern Yuan.
Moreover, on the surface, it seems that the chances of the Northern Yuan winning are very high.
What good is the strength of the Ming army if the soldiers and horses are exhausted? No matter how powerful your army is, how much combat strength can it exert when the men and horses are tired?
On the other hand, the Northern Yuan side is well-rested and their fighting spirit is high. It is easy to imagine that they will be able to exert a fighting power far exceeding their usual level.
With this back and forth, the Northern Yuan has an even higher chance of winning this great battle!
In particular, Zhu Yunwen's eagerness to save people gave the Northern Yuan a certain advantage.
With all these advantages combined, as long as they don't make any mistakes, the Northern Yuan's advantage in this great battle is simply too great.
"Grand Tutor, rest assured, we will be careful!"
"That's right, this battle is extremely important to our Northern Yuan, and we will not be careless."
"No, we will be extremely cautious. After all, the outcome of this battle is of paramount importance, and this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. It would be such a pity to lose because of carelessness." "That's right. We must be fully focused and win this time no matter what."
"."
The Northern Yuan generals all spoke, each with a determined look on their faces.
They all knew how important the upcoming battle was.
Their southward expedition had almost ended in failure, but unexpectedly, the Ming emperor suddenly presented them with an opportunity. Such an opportunity was one they had to seize.
"Alright, everyone go and prepare. We'll be facing the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty soon. Gentlemen, the future of the Northern Yuan rests on our shoulders." Arughtai's expression was extremely serious.
Although Bei Yuan has a significant advantage, he still needs to be extremely cautious and do his utmost to secure victory in this match.
"Yes, Grand Tutor!" Everyone nodded and then left.
With a major battle imminent, they needed to make some preparations and, incidentally, boost the morale of their troops.
What was supposed to be a loss could turn into a blowout victory after winning this match.
"Hoo," Arughtai took a deep breath, a hint of excitement flashing in his eyes, and said softly, "Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, let me meet you!"
To seize the Ming emperor, break free from the Ming's dominance over the Northern Yuan, and restore the glory of the Yuan Dynasty.
He has already planned out the route; now, it's just a matter of seeing the final result.
Of course, he was full of confidence!
Oirat camp!
Mahmud, Taiping, Batuboluo, Tuohuan, and others gathered together.
Although they all nodded in agreement to fight alongside the Tatars against Zhu Yunwen, they still needed to have some internal discussions.
The Tatars were the Tatars, and the Oirats were the Oirats, but they both belonged to the Northern Yuan.
If the Ming emperor could be captured and the current situation of the Northern Yuan being suppressed by the Ming could be changed, then the Oirat Mongols could also benefit. However, would Arughtai then take advantage of the situation?
This proposal was initiated by Arughtai. If they win in the end, Arughtai will definitely benefit the most. Arughtai is currently at odds with Mahmud and is eyeing the Oirat. If the Northern Yuan wins in the end, will Arughtai turn his fangs against the Oirat?
"I never expected things to turn out this way. This new emperor of the Ming Dynasty is still a bit too young!" Taiping shook his head.
This opportunity was like a pie falling from the sky, crashing right in front of Arughtai, which left everyone speechless.
Tubolo looked at Mahmud and hesitated, saying, "Prime Minister, I have only one concern: after we help the Tatars win, will Arughtai target us afterwards?"
If you put in the effort and then get targeted by Arutai, you might as well just run away now!
Mahmud thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "That's probably impossible. If Arughtai really wins in the end, he won't target us Oirats anymore, but will try to win us over."
"Huh? Why is that?" Bald Boluo asked, his face full of confusion.
“It’s very simple. If Arutai can really defeat and capture the Ming emperor, he will once again have the idea of heading south to occupy the Central Plains. But it will be difficult to achieve this. It will require a lot of manpower and strength. Although Arutai is despicable, he is definitely not stupid. On the contrary, he is very smart. So, he cannot afford to offend us,” Tuohuan said.
Mahmud looked at Toghon, a hint of appreciation in his eyes: "That's right, Toghon's analysis is correct. If we lose, Arughtai might take action against us to expand his own strength. However, if he wins, he will absolutely not attack us. So, there's no need to worry about these things."
Bald Boluo nodded and said, "In that case, I have no more doubts. This opportunity is too good to pass up; we must take it!"
He roughly understood what Tuohuan and Mahmud were saying. To put it bluntly, the Ming Dynasty had enough resources that if the Northern Yuan really marched south, the Tatars and the Oirats would not have any conflict at all. They would all be sucking the blood out of the Central Plains.
"Alright, if there are no more questions, let's hurry over so as not to miss the opportunity." Mahmud waved his hand.
On the battlefield, opportunities are fleeting.
Although the Northern Yuan had a significant advantage in this battle, it was clear from Arutai's words that the Northern Yuan was still going all out, and ambushes and other such tactics would naturally be used, as even a slight increase in the chances of winning would be beneficial.
“Okay!” Taiping, Bald Boluo, and Tuohuan nodded.
Afterwards, the group, with their troops, headed towards the Tatar camp.
Liaodong battlefield!
Zhu Quan looked surprised and suspicious, his brows furrowed.
The previously intense Northern Yuan offensive seemed to have loosened up considerably in an instant.
"What's going on? What kind of wicked scheme is Bei Yuan plotting now?" Zhu Quan wondered to himself.
As for the idea that Bei Yuan might give up after seeing how difficult it was to fight them, he never even entertained the thought.
Given the current situation, they are already trapped, and the Northern Yuan has no way of giving up.
"What is Bei Yuan up to?"
"The current situation is very strange, everyone should be prepared."
"These damned Northern Yuan traitors only know how to launch sneak attacks. If they're so capable, let's have a fair fight."
"."
A group of Beiping generals gathered around Zhu Quan, each with a somewhat uncertain look in their eyes.
Bei Yuan's sudden action startled them all, and they became extremely alert.
There must be a demon in the abnormal situation.
Before they know why the Northern Yuan suddenly slowed down their offensive, they absolutely cannot be careless.
"Your Highness, a letter from Beiping!" A general rushed over.
Zhu Quan was taken aback for a moment, then quickly stepped forward, picked up the letter, and tore it open to read its contents.
The letter contained only four short characters.
[Your Majesty, we have arrived!]
"I knew it, I knew it!!!" Zhu Quan was extremely excited. When he heard the letter from Beiping, he had already had doubts.
