Chapter 54 On the chair "On the twenty-ninth day of the first lunar month, the Huai bandits invaded the north in large numbers.
Dangshan, Peixian, and Shanzhou were defeated, and the county magistrate was missing."
"The Huai thief Wu Yongchun came to Caozhou City on the third day of the second lunar month, Daru Hua Chibao Min surrendered, and the prefect Wang Shouyi raised a fire and died."
"The Huai thief Zhang Dingbian attacked Tengzhou on the fifth day of the second lunar month.
Daruhuachi and Zhao Buhua died in the battle, and the prefect Li Yi surrendered."
"On the sixth day of the second lunar month, the Huai bandits broke into Zouxian and Jeju."
"On the eighth day of the second lunar month, the Huai thief Xu Da personally led the bandits to attack Jining.
The prefect Zhang Tai colluded with him and sent his generals to attack the east gate.
Daruhua Chizhuo did not spend his death, and all other civil and military officials were lost in the rebel army."
"On the tenth day of the second lunar month, Zhao Liangchen, the prefect of Gunzhou, dedicated the city to the Huai bandits."
In early February, one after another warning messages were sent to the Imperial Palace in the Capital City along the official roads that were in disrepair.
In the Dongnuan Hall of the palace, Prime Minister Dingzhu on the right, Prime Minister He Weiwei on the left, Yushi doctor Wang Jianu, House Secretary Sangge Shili, Yushi doctor Yue Kuochaer, Deputy Governor of the Privy Council Li Siqi and others all frowned.
Locks, expression solemn and abnormal.
The Huai'an Army Conference's large-scale Northern Expedition did not exceed the expectations of these leading officials.
In fact, from the moment Prince Aiyou met Li Dala and Queen Qi "hunted" Ji Ning, they determined that Butcher Zhu would not let go of this golden opportunity.
However, no one expected that the Huai'an Army's offensive would be so sharp, advancing more than 150 miles north in just ten days.
The officers and soldiers along the way were defeated one after another like haystacks in the strong wind, without any resistance at all.
And all this is still caused by the fact that the canal has not been completely opened and all the rivers and rivers along the way are in dry season.
If the weather gets warmer, the river will have enough water for boating.
The Huai thieves who no longer worry about the supply of grain and grass supplies will be even more powerful.
We must immediately send troops south to fight to the death with Butcher Zhu.
The imperial court's original plan to use local troops and horses to deplete the morale of the Huai thieves had obviously failed completely.
Zhu Tutu's military front was too sharp, and those local soldiers and the rebels organized by the powerful themselves were no match for him.
At present, the loyalty of the local volunteers themselves is also very unreliable.
If the powerful gentry find that no one can stop the Huai thieves, they will probably switch sides.
"After the fall of Jining, the Xu thief's next target must be Dongping."
Being able to quickly stabilize the situation in the DPRK at the moment when Tuohuan Timur and his son were fighting each other, it is obvious that the ability of the Right Prime Minister Dingzhu is not very weak.
After thinking about it with a frown, he figured out the Huai'an Army's next move.
Next to Dongping Road is Tai'an Prefecture.
If this place is also captured by Xu thieves, Taibuhua will be attacked from both sides."
Taibuhua was not welcomed by the emperor, and the relationship between Taibuhua and the two brothers Hama and Xuexue was not clear.
But right now, he still has 150,000 officers and soldiers in his hands.
Even though many of the generals in this army had forged records and were bribed by the Huai thieves along with Xuexue, after all, the vast majority of them were Mongolians.
As long as they exist, the Huai thieves will have the strength to defend against them.
And in the event that they are eliminated, the Huaian Sixth Army Corps, which has been entrenched in Jiaozhou for many years, can join forces with the other three legions led by Xu Da.
At that time, 120,000 troops rushed straight up the canal "Dalu Hua Chi Heda on Dongping Road has sent a suicide note to the court, vowing to live and die together in the city.
But Dongping Road is just a low-grade road, and Heda has less than 3,000 soldiers and horses, although there are 20,000 righteous citizens led by Chen Qiu.
With the help of the Mao Gourd Soldiers, they can finally hold Xu Da off for a few days, but it’s hard to say.”
Zuo Xiang He Weiwei pondered for a moment, then sighed and added.
He was not optimistic about the future of Dongping Road Daru Hua Chi Heda, even though he had a reputation of being brave and loyal to the court.
But the gap in strength between the two sides is there, and it cannot be made up by personal bravery and determination to die.
If the imperial court has placed too much hope in the war on Dongping Road, it may not take too long before it will be hit dizzy again.
These are all the consequences of Tuotuo's military and military aggression.
If he hadn't insisted on fighting to defeat the two Huaihe Rivers, the 300,000-strong army would eventually fall apart.
It would not leave the imperial court with no soldiers at its disposal.

Of course, there was no shortage of population in the Yuan Dynasty.
As long as the Daru Huachis in various places were ruthless, they could fill up the barracks by catching young men.
But can the strong men captured temporarily compare with the elites recruited from various places a few years ago?
Not to mention the huge difference in combat effectiveness and morale, even the equipment of armor and weapons is completely different from what it was back then.
There are no soldiers, no money, and not enough food reserves.
It would be strange if some Daruhuachi could create a miracle and delay Xu Da's footsteps for ten days and a half.
Although when everyone mentions the Huai'an Army, they all look disdainful and call them "Huai thieves".
But this thief has thousands of artillery pieces.
The generals among the thieves are all experienced in many battles.
The armor on the thief's body was all of excellent quality.
What is even more embarrassing is that this thief actually went all the way north, helping the victims and stabilizing food prices.
But before here, local governments were working hard to collect grain, and together with profiteers, they pushed the price of grain to sky high, forcing the people to complain.
"If you want to keep Dongping, you need to mobilize troops from Dadu.
Obviously, water from afar cannot quench the thirst of nearby people."
Taiwei Yuekuo Cha'er is a soldier who knows the soldiers.
He does not blindly emphasize his own disadvantages like the left and right prime ministers, but strives to pursue Feasible response options.
"The best way is to let Heda Wanhu voluntarily abandon Dongping Road and lead the Mongolian troops and volunteers under his command to retreat to Dongchang.
Then transfer Daruhuachi from the Daming, Guangping and Shunde roads to lead their respective troops.
Rush to the aid of Dongchang.
By gathering the officers, soldiers and volunteers from the five routes into one place, at least in terms of the number of troops and horses, we are already on par with the enemy, and may even have a strength advantage."
This strategy can indeed be regarded as a wise strategy for the country.
The distance between Dongping and Dongchang is more than two hundred miles.
Near Dongping, there are Yanggu, Feicheng, Dong'e and other places that can be used to delay the enemy.
In order to ensure that his rear would not be harassed, Xu Da must first send Wu Yongchun, Wu Liangmou and other generals to sweep the surrounding counties before he could continue to advance north.
And if the imperial court dispatches in time, it will be enough to use this time to gather all the soldiers and horses from nearby areas to Dongchang to fight a small decisive battle with the Xu thieves.
No matter how good the strategy is, if the person who speaks it out is wrong, it will be a waste of saliva.
Before Right Prime Minister Dingzhu could express his position, Wang Jianu, the imperial censor, had already retorted loudly, "Your Majesty Taiwei is really a good trick.
Earlier, we were still worried that if Dongping was lost, Tai'an would definitely be unsafe.
You actually immediately suggested that the imperial court give up on its own initiative.
Dongping.
Lord Taiwei, you hate Taibuhua so much, do you wish he would die at the hands of thieves immediately?"
"Nonsense!"
Yue Kuocha'er's face quickly turned purple-black.
His eyes widened, and he roared through gritted teeth, "I have no grievances with Tai Buhua, how could I think of letting him die?
He has at least 150,000 troops in his hands, and if he sends tens of thousands at will, he can defend himself."
Behind him.
And how could Thief Xu dare to turn around and head east to attack Tai Buhua together with Wang Xuan of Jiaozhou, knowing that the army was gathering in Dongchang City?"
"Maybe someone will have other tricks by then to solve Thief Xu's worries."
Wang Jianu curled his lips and taunted sinisterly.
"Prime Minister Tuotuo never expected that he would set a trap to ambush the Huai thieves, but in the end he would ambush the imperial envoy delivering the imperial decree."
"Old thief, you and I have no sworn relationship."
Yue Kuochaer couldn't bear it anymore and rushed forward with his fists waving, ready to beat Wang's slave to death.
When Rang Tuotuo ambushed the imperial envoy delivering the imperial edict, he fell into a trap jointly set by him, Taibuhua, Xuexue and others.
This is no longer a secret within the Mongolian and Yuan court.
But when he did that, he was prompted by Tuohuan Timur.

It was to force Tuotuo to hand over military power, and he did it out of necessity.
But now, Tuotuo no longer poses a threat to the court.
With a formidable enemy at hand, the court needs to redress Tuotuo's body to boost military morale.
The slave of the Wang family has been a public official all his life, how can his hands and feet be as good as that of a warrior like Yue Kuochaer.
In the blink of an eye, he was knocked to the ground with a bloody head.
This time, the Wang family slave's son, Sang Ge, who had always been calm and wise, was offended.
He roared loudly, threw himself from the side and hugged Yue Kuocha'er's waist, tightened his arms violently, and pulled the cow backwards.
"Plop" Yue Kuo Cha'er was caught off guard and was thrown so hard that stars appeared in his eyes.
Wang Jianu and his son both rushed forward and punched him in the face and chest.
The beating was so severe that the current captain's eyes were black and his nostrils were bleeding.
He was rolling on the ground holding his head, "Wang's slave, I, you and I are sworn in.
Today, you can either beat me to death.
Or." , let’s just wait and see.”
"That's enough, stop it.
Come here, pull all three of them down and beat them hard."
Taohuan Timur, who had been drowsy with his head on the imperial case, suddenly stood up , clap hard with your hands, "pop" "Yes."
Outside Dongnuan Pavilion, more than ten guards on duty rushed in immediately.
However, when they saw the subjects who were about to be dragged away, they were all dumbfounded.
They stood in the middle of the room, looking at each other.
One is the head of the official position, from the first rank to the imperial censor.
One is the third-rank minister of household affairs, and concurrently the third-rank minister of the Privy Council.
The other one is the current Taiwei, one of the three princes.
Drag these three people to the steps at the same time to make a plan.
After that, even with the protection of the emperor Tuohuan Timur, everyone's heads may not be stable.
"Why don't you take action?
Drag them out, beat them, beat them hard.
The enemy is currently just trying to fight against each other.
Why do I keep these sycophants for me to beat?
If they are beaten to death, just drag them out and feed the dogs."
Seeing the timid Xue people Cowing back, Tuohuan Timur became more and more angry.
He staggered out from behind the imperial bookcase, grabbed a golden melon, and went to smash Yuekuo Cha'er himself.
"You don't dare, I'll show you first.
If you beat me to death, it will be on me and it has nothing to do with you."
The golden melon used for ceremonial purposes is hollow and gilded.
But the shell and handle are also made of fine iron.
If a melon was really hit on the head, it would be enough to beat Yue Kuochaer's brains to pieces on the spot.
As the head of the civil and military officials, how could Prime Minister Dingzhu tolerate such nonsense from his own emperor?
He rushed forward, supported Tuohuan Timur's arm with both hands, and slowly knelt down on his knees: "Your Majesty, your Majesty, calm down.
It's Wei.
Your Majesty is incompetent and unable to frighten all the officials.
This is why these three bold and crazy men have behaved disrespectfully in front of you.
I am willing to accept all punishments.
Please don’t do anything to harm your holy name."
"Reputation, what reputation do I have now?
I am a coward, a coward without principles.

I can neither control you treacherous people nor the harem.
The ancient Jie and Zhou were nothing more than that.
I, what reputation do I care about?"
Tuohuan Timur She has been addicted to the dual cultivation of men and women for many years, and her body has long been drained.
Her strength is not as good as that of ordinary palace maids, let alone the Prime Minister Dingzhu who has practiced martial arts.
I pressed down on the pumpkin several times, but couldn't get what I wanted, so I stamped my feet and roared in despair.
Xia Jie and Shang Zhou perished because they favored women.
But he, the woman he loved most, rebelled with his son.
Although the husband and son, father and son, have now resumed their superficial love, filial piety and kindness, and they continue to exchange letters.
But even the blind man knew that it was for outside viewing.
In fact, the imperial troops and horses could never cross Feihu Ridge.
It is also difficult for the prince’s direct line to pass through Jingxing Pass "Your Majesty, your Majesty, please calm down.
I know that I have sinned.
Please don't be angry.
I am willing to accept any punishment."
At this moment, Yue Kuochaer and Wang Jianu and his son remembered that Tuohuan Timur, the emperor, was still Now, one after another got up from the ground and kowtowed to apologize.
"I, I know that you all look down on me.
I know that you all think that I am the culprit who ruined the Great Yuan Dynasty.
Therefore, you never take me seriously.
Therefore, you wish that I would die long ago.
You So that I can go to the prince."
Tuo Huan Tie Mu Sui released the handle of the pumpkin and shook his head weakly.
Two lines of hot tears rolled down his pale face.
There is a folk saying that the most painful thing for a man is an unkind wife and an unfilial son.
How is he, the Emperor of the Great Yuan Dynasty, different from ordinary men?
His son rebelled, and his wife ran away with him.
If your family is unlucky, you will have no confidence when dealing with outsiders.
But since they have no confidence in dealing with outsiders, these ministers just step on their noses and flatter themselves.
Thinking of this, Tuohuan Timur could no longer hold on.
He turned his head, cried bitterly, and ran towards the harem.
"I am truly a man abandoned by God.
I have encountered every lucky thing since I was a child.
I, I am not worthy of being the emperor.
You can assist whoever you are willing to assist.
Even if you go to kneel down to greet Butcher Zhu, I, I will not It’s up to you” "Your Majesty, your Majesty, please calm down."
Prime Minister Dingzhu was startled and chased after him.
Tuohuan Timur refused to listen to his call and continued to run away crying.
When he was young, his biological mother was forced to death by powerful ministers, and he himself was exiled to Goryeo.
After inheriting the throne in a daze, he had to face repeated bullying from the powerful ministers and the treacherous Queen Mother.
He finally drove away the powerful ministers and killed the Queen Mother.
Then he encountered the Yellow River bursting and there was a great famine in the world.
After finally blocking the mouth of the Yellow River, Yingzhou rebelled against Liu Futong again After careful calculation, although he has been sitting on the Dragon Throne for a long time in his life, he has never had a happy day.
It's really better to hand over your position to others as soon as possible, become a rich man yourself, continue to practice the secret method of playing butterfly in comfort, and pursue the road to immortality.
People's thinking is so weird.
They often suddenly figure it out and their eyes light up.

Suddenly, Tuohuan Timur, who was running away crying, stopped and almost bumped into Dingzhu and others who were chasing him.
"Send the message to the crown prince, and I will give way to him."
With his eyes red from crying, he roared at the confused Dingzhu, "Let him lead his troops back to Dadu, and guard the land left by our ancestors for me.
I don’t want anything anymore.
I was planning to pass on my family to him.
Why would I have to separate my wife and children for this chair?”
