Chapter 151
Chapter 0151 Zhu Yuanzhang drove the imperial conquest, and the Hanzhong army came to the Western Regions!!
As the saying goes, soldiers and horses go first before moving food and grass!
Zhu Li was indeed very busy during this time, not only to create all kinds of sharp weapons for the Hanzhong Army, but also busy sending a large amount of grain and grass to Hamiwei!
Today's Hexi corridor is a sharp blade inserted by Zhu Li between East Chagatai and Walabu!
With Hamiwei as the bridgehead, Zhu Que's Hanzhong army can enter the hinterland of the Western Regions in the west, and can directly attack the Vara Junger Department in the east, greatly shortening the logistics supply line of the Hanzhong Army For the army's food and grass, Zhu Que has always been arranged relatively rich, vegetables, meat, pasta, rice will be quite complete, and even bring fruits, eggs and milk are also necessary nutritional supplements!
Zhu Li believes in one thing, that is, only an army with qualified physical fitness can become a master of Yum!
And to achieve this, even in wartime, Zhu Li will try to provide the army with more complete logistical supplies, especially in terms of diet!
Because of the full cavalry of the Hanzhong Army, there was no need to worry about the speed of the march at all.
In addition, the grain and grass were transported to Hamiwei first, so when the army set out from Hanzhong, as long as it prepared the rations for the ten days of marching to Hamiwei, there would be no problem at all.
Cavalry units operate, in addition to the war horses that the soldiers ride, there will be special war horses responsible for carrying supplies.
Usually five thousand cavalry will have an extra thousand horses, in addition to the necessary food and materials for the pack army, it can also be used as a supplement to the wear and tear of the battlefield!
After all, fighting a war is not only about death, but also about war horses!
When a war horse is damaged, it needs to be replenished with other horses!
Zhu Li prepared 30,000 Han Chinese troops for this attack on Eastern Chagatai, but 40,000 war horses alone, and they were all Mongolian horses!
Although the Mongolian horse is not big, only about one meter two to one meter three meters tall, it has full endurance!
At that time, Genghis Khan's iron horse traveled all over Eurasia, relying on this kind of Mongolian war horse that is good at long-distance raids, and there is no problem in running 300 miles a day, which is equivalent to more than 100 kilometers in later generations!
From Hanzhong to Hamiwei, basically march at the fastest speed, that is, ten days!
If you enter the core area of the Western Regions and the Varabu from Hamiwei to the west or east, the schedule will be shortened to about half a month!
This is also why Zhu Li said that he would be able to win the entire East Chagatai within three months!
Han Dynasty Huo Qu disease, the highest record is six days of rushing thousands of miles, known as the originator of blitzkrieg!
Zhu Li has this self-confidence and can completely surpass the record set by Huo Qubing!
Because today's Hanzhong army is far stronger than the Han army led by Huo Qubing!
However, the Western Regions are not as good as Mobei, there are many cities here, and the equipment for siege must be prepared!
Fortunately, the things needed to siege the city have already been transported to Hamiwei, and there is no need to follow Zhu Li's army to act together!
In September of the 26th year of Daming Hongwu, the things that should be prepared for the western expedition were basically prepared.
Originally, Zhu Li also wanted to build a flying magic weapon, but the materials needed were not so easy to get, so he had no choice but to shelve it for the time being, and talk about it later!
In this way, the Hanzhong army is ready to go to war at any time!
But before setting out, Zhu Li and Zhu Yuanzhang still have one more thing to do!
That is Daming Royal Bank, which has been officially opened after Zhu Biao's busy work for almost two months!
Zhu Li and Zhu Yuanzhang naturally both had to attend the opening ceremony of the Daming Royal Bank.
After all, this is also the result of Zhu Biao's busy work in the past month!
The idea was all from Zhu Li, but Zhu Biao was a thorough executor!
The significance of this Daming Royal Bank is naturally extraordinary for Zhu Biao×
At present, the main business of Daming Royal Bank is very similar to the private money bank, but the business scope is obviously wider than that of ordinary money banks, and at the same time, the characteristics of the northwest land, house purchase loans and car purchase loans are also incorporated into the main business of the bank.
In addition, Daming Royal Bank has also taken the lead in launching small personal loans!
But anyone who has proof of working in a business in the Northwest and has a fixed income, including military families, is eligible to apply!
Zhu Li is nothing more than a reference to the set of credit loans in later generations, and the interest is so low that everyone has an incredible feeling!
Zhu Li did this so that ordinary people could also afford loans, and would not be bankrupt because of interest problems!
With such a low-interest loan available, who would use what usury?
Of course, the current credit loan business is only for the people in the northwest region, if you are foreign, then there is no way!
On the third day of September 26, Daming Hongwu officially opened!
Just when everyone was celebrating the establishment of the Daming Royal Bank, Jiang Ying suddenly sent the news sent by Ying Tianfu to Zhu Yuanzhang's father and son.
The one who sent the news was Zhang Yu, who had returned to Yingfu.
"It seems that after we and Biao'er left Yingtian, some people really couldn't sit still!"
After reading the fold sent by Zhang Zhen, Zhu Yuanzhang's face was a little gloomy.
Since Zhang Zhen returned, the other officials of the six ministries began to ask Zhang Yu about the situation of Hanzhong Mansion and Zhu Yuanzhang's father and son.
Their intention was also very obvious, that is, they hoped that Zhang Zhen would join them in stopping the reform policies of the Han king Zhu Li.
On the other hand, Jinyiwei's side also sent a lot of news, saying that many Wen Chen had seen many people with very suspicious identities in private!
To be honest, these officials will have entanglements with the people of the old fourth Yan King Zhu Di, and Zhu Yuanzhang is not surprised!
Having deduced Zhu Di's life, Zhu Yuanzhang naturally knew what was going on in his fourth brother's heart!
He will definitely not miss this opportunity and want to see what happens!
But what Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao didn't expect was that in addition to Yan King Zhu Di, there was actually the figure of Wu King Zhu Yunjiang!
In the past month, Zhu Yunjiang actually secretly exchanged letters with Huang Zicheng, Qi Tai and others!
Although the content of the letter was intercepted by Jinyiwei, and the content was mostly Zhu Yunjiang's greetings to the teacher as a student, it was obviously a very abnormal thing!
"The trees want to be quiet and the wind does not stop!"
Zhu Li also sighed helplessly at this!
He didn't expect that Zhu Yunjiang would follow Jian He at this time!
According to reason, he should not have such boldness!
But thinking about it, Zhu Li didn't feel strange, after all, there was still that unwilling lonely Mu Clan beside Zhu!
And his intuition told him that his fourth brother may also be behind the scenes!
In his opinion, the possibility of King Yan and King Wu secretly colluding does exist, is this uncle and nephew planning to join forces to fight with themselves?
"Father Emperor, the sons and daughters have decided to respond to Tianfu to continue to oversee the country! Please also ask the emperor for permission! "
Zhu Biao's face was not so ugly at this moment, and he immediately asked Zhu Yuanzhang, and Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly frowned.
If it was before, he would definitely not agree, after all, Zhu Biao's time is running out!
But now that Zhu Li has given the semi-finished Life Extension Pill to Zhu Biao, at least he can live for another three years, which is not impossible to respond to Tianfu's words!
"That's it, it's really been too long for our father and son to leave Yingtianfu!"
"There is indeed a need for someone in the imperial court to preside over the overall situation, and relying on just one Zhang Zhen, I am afraid that he will not be able to withstand all the pressure!"
"It's good if you go back!"
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Biao with some complicated eyes for a long time, and finally nodded helplessly.
"Son-in-law, thank you Father Emperor!"
When Zhu Biao heard this, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief!
When he went back to Ying Tianfu, he could at least make Old Fourth and Zhu Yun converge a little, and he could deal with anything in time!
If the old man goes back in person, or lets Jin Yiwei do it, then the consequences will be uncontrollable!
In the end, it was his own brother and son, Zhu Biao still couldn't bear to watch them make mistakes again and again!
"And remember, after responding to the day, let the six departments handle the things that can be handled, let the six departments handle themselves! You just need to control the big picture, don't let yourself get too tired! "
"As for these two incomplete things, you must also make a judgment and do not condone it."
Zhu Yuanzhang instructed Zhu Biao with a straight face.
"Father and emperor rest assured, the children have a share in their hearts!"
"By the way, Father Emperor, the sons and daughters responded to the Queen of Heaven, are you going to drive the Western Regions with your ninth brother?"
Zhu Biao directly changed the topic at this time and asked.
"That's right, we will also drive the Western Regions this time and make a splash!"
"But don't worry, there are Lao Jiu in the war, we won't have any problems, at most, it's just a fun!"
Zhu Yuanzhang said with a smile.
"Father, please take care of your body!"
"Ninth brother, then the father emperor can be handed over to you, you must help the eldest brother take care of the father emperor!"
Zhu Biao then turned to Zhu Li and instructed with a solemn expression.
"Don't worry, big brother, with the subordinate brother here, the father emperor will not have anything!"
Zhu Li assured with a confident look.
"There the courtiers first wished the father and the ninth brother a victory, and the sons waited in Yingtianfu for the victory of the father and the ninth brother, and the class master returned to the dynasty!"
Zhu Biao nodded heavily, and then bowed to Zhu Yuanjian.
In this way, Zhu Biao also left Hanzhong Mansion, arrived in Xi'an Mansion under the escort of Jinyiwei, and then returned to Yingtianfu together with the guards and forbidden troops left outside Xi'an Prefecture.
Before leaving, Zhu Li also gave Zhu Biao enough pills for half a year, ensuring that he would not lack pills to nourish his body for at least half a year.
Zhu Yuanzhang was also quite satisfied with this arrangement.
"Old Jiu, Biao'er has also responded to Tianfu, shouldn't our father and son also let go of the king of hands and feet?"
After Zhu Yuanzhang saw off Zhu Biao, he asked with a smile at Zhu Li.
Zhu Biao went back, although Zhu Yuanzhang was reluctant, but with Zhu Biao responding to Tianfu sitting down, Zhu Yuanzhang was still quite relieved!
After all, this is also the prince who has been cultivated for more than twenty years!
With Zhu Biao helping him oversee the country in the center of the imperial court, then he can also have more time and be able to accomplish more things he wants to do!
"Father said so!"
"The 30,000 Han Chinese army can be assembled at any time, just waiting for the order of the father emperor!"
When Zhu Li heard this, he also got up.
"We're going to take Blue Jade and them on a journey together, what do you think?"
Zhu Yuanzhang changed his tone at this time.
Zhu Biao went back, and he didn't let Lan Yu and the others go back with him, in order to bring Lan Yu and the others to the battlefield of the Western Regions!
"The father and the emperor are the commanders of this western expedition, and how to deploy troops and dispatch generals is naturally left to the father and the emperor!"
Zhu Li naturally understood what Zhu Yuanzhang meant, now that the father and son had talked openly, he also knew why the old man wanted to bring Lan Yu, a group of arrogant soldiers, to the northwest, wasn't it so that he could have a good relationship with himself and be able to use it for him in the future?
As a soldier, what could be more ironclad than having been on the battlefield together and being a robe?
In this battle in the Western Regions, letting Lan Yu and others participate is equivalent to letting Lan Yu and their gang of Huaixi lords and nobles also establish a deep bond with the Hanzhong Army, and may also become a soldier of half of the Hanzhong Army!
After that, these Huaixi Xungui and Hanzhong Army will get along more harmoniously, and Lao Jiu will be more comfortable to use!
The old man is so well-intentioned, Zhu Li naturally will not refuse!
What's more, although Lan Yu and the others are arrogant and domineering, it is only a matter of character, and the ability to fight is still not to be underestimated!
Not to mention the rest, the combat power of Lan Yu, Feng Sheng, and Fu Youde is definitely comparable to Qin Wu, Geng and Yang He!
The premise is that Qin Wu and the three of them don't use the magic weapon ring!
This is enough to see the awesomeness of blue jade!
On the same day, Zhu Yuanzhang issued a holy decree to conquer the Eastern Chagatai and announced this news to the world!
In the past, the emperor's holy decrees were sent from Ying Tianfu, but this time it was directly from Hanzhong Mansion!
And the news that Zhu Yuanzhang decided to drive his own conquest and lead the Hanzhong army to attack the Eastern Chagatai and recover the entire Western Regions at the same time will inevitably shock the entire government and the public!
But since Zhu Yuanzhang has already decided, the holy decree has been issued to the world, and everyone can only be shocked except shock!
At this time, who dares to jump out and object, it is equivalent to directly hitting Zhu Yuanzhang in the face!
In Hanzhong Province.
Zhu Yuanzhang also specially selected the eighth day of the first day of September as the auspicious day of the zodiac and held a heavenly festival!
It is nothing more than to report to Cangtian and the ancestors, who are about to drive their own conquests, recover the Western Regions, and create countless Hanzhong people, as well as the 30,000 Hanzhong troops who will go out this time, all witnessed this moment, and for a while the people rejoiced, and the Hanzhong army was even more morale-boosted!
Not to mention the rest, just Zhu Yuanzhang, who is the emperor, does not bring a single imperial court army, except for the Jinyiwei who has been around since then, he only brings them to the Hanzhong army, which is enough to show the emperor's trust in the Hanzhong army, and it is also an affirmation of their ability!
This is also an absolute honor for the entire Hanzhong Army!
Early the next morning, when the sun had just risen, the 30,000 Hanzhong troops set out from outside the city of Hanzhong Mansion under the gaze of the common people, and rushed to Tianshui Pass!
After leaving the Tianshui Pass, it will take more than ten days of long-distance attacks to reach Hamiwei!
After all, this more than a thousand kilometers of road, there are no trains, planes, can reach in a day, you have to rely on a solid rapid march!
Fortunately, Zhu Yuanzhang had his imperial car, and the horses pulling the cart were also replaced by Zhu Li with eight horses, and it was not a problem to keep up with the speed of the army!
Zhu Li was originally going to ride a horse, but he was pulled by Zhu Yuanzhang and sat in the imperial car, and the father and son could still talk when they had nothing to do!
On the same day, the army left Tianshui Pass and entered the vast Gobi of the Hexi Corridor!
The bumps of one foot deep and one foot shallow on this road are true, even if Zhu Yuanzhang's luxurious carriage is equipped with a total of eight large tires and shock absorbers, it is inevitable that there will be some bumpy feelings!
Zhu Yuanzhang's age is in the end, although he did not say anything in his mouth, but Zhu Li can also see the tiredness of the old man!
Mainly after the bumps, Zhu Yuanzhang seems to have no appetite to even eat!
By the turn of the day, on the second day of the army's expedition, Zhu Yuanzhang had obviously lost his appetite, and he didn't even want to eat!
Zhu Li had no choice but to directly take out a Gugu Pill and hand it to the old man
"This is the Gugu Pill you gave Jiang Ye?"
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the small pill in front of him, and his eyes were full of excitement and asked.
"That's right, the son and daughter see that the father emperor has no appetite, it is better to simply swallow a Gugu Pill, at least for ten days, even if the father emperor does not eat or drink, there will be nothing!"
Zhu Li smiled and nodded.
"Good stuff. It is a pity that there is no way to give it to the whole army, otherwise even food and grass will be saved! "
Zhu Yuanzhang naturally took this Gu Pill without hesitation, and miraculously it didn't take long for him to feel the hunger in his belly disappear directly, and the effect was simply immediate!
"This Gu Dan is not a cabbage, although it is relatively easy to refine, but if you really calculate it, it is much higher than the cost of ten days of food for normal people!"
When Zhu Li heard this, he shook his head again and again with tears and laughter!
Take the Gudan to replace the food and grass of the army?
Does this old man really dare to think about it? Towel!
