Chapter 287 The Mire of War
Chapter 287 The quagmire of war
"I don't dare. I just don't understand why the commander-in-chief has been standing still."
The Tubo general said with an arrogant look on his face, not taking Zhu Houzhao seriously at all.
"Is it?"
Zhu Houzhao changed his face in the next second and shouted: "Here comes someone, drag him out and chop him!"
A clown who dares to shout in front of him is simply looking for death when he is tired of living. In this case, he doesn't mind killing a chicken to scare the monkeys.
"How dare you? I am a Tibetan general and you have no right to kill me."
The Tubo general suddenly changed his color and shouted sternly, "You have nothing to fear."
He was a Tubo general, and Zhu Houzhao was nominally a Song general. Even if Zhu Houzhao was the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces, he had no right to kill him.
"What does the prince think?"
Zhu Houzhao looked at the Tubo prince.
This battle, how can I put it in four words: terrible!
One by one, they constantly requested the country to send troops for support, and even greatly exaggerated their own achievements, showing to the top officials in the country that as long as they were given enough military support, they could destroy the Mongolian Yuan in minutes.
If they were allowed to continue to be ravaged by Meng Yuan's cavalry, how could they obediently fight with Meng Yuan?
Zhu Houzhao glanced at the Tubo general coldly and waved his hand gently: "Take him down and behead him in public."
As long as the threat of the Mongolian and Yuan Dynasties can be removed, the Six Kingdoms can continue to live a good life, continue to play music and dance, and from time to time they can go to the rich Song Kingdom to enjoy the autumn breeze. How comfortable and carefree.
In this way, the six countries were dragged into the quagmire of war by Zhu Houzhao. While secretly helping each country defeat the Mongolian Yuan, he continued to consume the military strength of each country, allowing them to advance and retreat.
This extremely vicious method continuously consumes the foundations of various countries and lays the foundation for the final war.
The top leaders of various countries are constantly fighting among themselves, vying for power and profit, and they are obsessed with life and death, but no one is a fool.
The effect of killing the chicken to scare the monkeys was achieved. Zhu Houzhao's face suddenly became serious and he said loudly: "The opportunity for fighting is ripe. In the future, we will break out the camp and send troops to attack Dadu."
Dali's army also performs well in terms of combat effectiveness. There are many ethnic minorities among Dali's soldiers, and they can have a slight advantage against the Mongolian and Yuan cavalry.
"Since you are the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces, you naturally have the power of life and death."
The top leaders of various countries are naturally unwilling to do this. If all domestic soldiers are sent to the front line, doesn't it mean that the country will be empty?
Two burly soldiers took the Tibetan general away, and then a scream was heard. The generals from all over the world were trembling, and they no longer dared to challenge Zhu Houzhao.
"I am willing to obey the orders of the commander-in-chief."
After the war, Kublai Khan led the remaining defeated generals and fled back to Dadu. Although the Six Nations Allied Forces suffered a tragic victory, the generals were very happy.
After the defeat of Kublai Khan, the generals of various countries were more confident and led their armies towards Dadu without thinking.
Zhu Houzhao is his heaven and his god.
The generals from all over the world breathed a sigh of relief. As long as they can fight, as long as they fight, no matter whether they win or lose, they can give an explanation to the country.
The temptation to destroy the Meng Yuan, a serious enemy in one battle, is still very attractive to the top leaders of various countries.
What's more, Yelv Renxian, Wanyan Honglie, Helian Tieshu, Duan Zhengchun, and the Tubo prince also assured the country that as long as the support is in place, it is not impossible to destroy Meng Yuan.
Zhu Houzhao took advantage of the victory and pursued the attack.
If Zhu Houzhao wanted to kill the Tubo general to establish his authority, then he should kill him. In his heart, even his biological father was not as important as Zhu Houzhao.
The successive victories also caused the generals of the six countries to completely lose their respect for the Meng Yuan, and their confidence grew infinitely. They felt that the Meng Yuan cavalry were not as difficult to defeat as the legends said. They were just chickens and dogs, and not worth mentioning at all.
"The army continues to advance towards Dadu."
With this battle alone, they can give an explanation to the country.
When Zhu Houzhao deliberately consumed the forces of various countries and did not send his elite troops to participate in the war, the combat power of the Six-Nation Allied Forces was really worrying, and Kublai Khan almost created a military miracle of defeating the Six-Nation Allied Forces with 100,000 men.
When the Allied Forces of the Six Nations fight against the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty, doing nothing would be a fatal matter. Rumors are the most bloodless knife.
Without Zhu Houzhao ordering the Jin Yiwei to kill the Mongolian and Yuan commander-in-chief in advance, the Six Nations would have been just a dream if they wanted to defeat the Mongolian and Yuan cavalry one after another.
The Six Nations Allied Forces had complicated hearts, and there were many who were dissatisfied. If he didn't kill the chicken to scare the monkeys, how many people would listen to him? By chance, a Tibetan general jumped out to seek death, and he could not live up to the Tubo general's good intentions.
The next day, Zhu Houzhao led the six-nation coalition forces to attack Kublai Khan's army head-on.
Unfortunately, the war has already begun, and it is impossible to retreat rashly. Even if you are extremely reluctant, you have to grit your teeth and support the war.
Zhu Houzhao's purpose in doing this was to boost the self-confidence of the generals of the Six Nations and make them arrogant and arrogant.
However, the generals of various countries were blinded by their "extraordinary achievements". The Mongolian Yuan was not invincible. As long as they were given enough troops, they could destroy the Mongolian Yuan.
The number of soldiers of the Six-Nation Alliance far exceeded that of Kublai Khan, but the quality of the soldiers on both sides was not at the same level.
If Zhu Houzhao said "all living beings are united", the Tubo princes would regard him as a guide, and there would be no possibility of objection.
With the help of the Jin Yiwei, the Six Nations Allied Forces won consecutive battles, attacked the city, and were invincible, causing Meng Yuan to suffer miserably along the way.
Based on various considerations, all countries have chosen to continue the war and continue to mobilize troops, food, ordnance and other items from home to the front line.
The soldiers of the Liao, Xixia and Jin Kingdoms were stronger than those of the Song Kingdom, but not much stronger. Due to domestic and foreign troubles, the Three Kingdoms had long lived up to their former reputation.
After all, the Mongolian Yuan is too aggressive. If the Mongolian Yuan exists for one day, it will be a great threat to all countries.
If it weren't for the help of a group of people from all walks of life who implemented a beheading plan and killed a large number of high-ranking Mongolian and Yuan generals, this battle would have been almost certain to be defeated.
Tubo, a country that has existed since the Tang Dynasty, can be said to be the eldest brother, let alone the second brother, with the Song Dynasty. No one is better than the other.
The Mongolian and Yuan cavalry have been on the battlefield for a long time, following the "Destined Master" to destroy countless countries, they are extremely brave and elite.
The 630,000-strong army faced off against Kublai Khan's 100,000-strong army, and they almost overturned.
Everyone regarded themselves as famous generals in hundreds of battles, and regarded Meng Yuan as a copy of their military exploits, but no one noticed that the "illustrious military exploits" they had achieved were all deliberately given to them by Zhu Houzhao.
"You heard it too, so I guess you have nothing to say!"
"ah"
As the war continued, casualties increased. In just two months, almost all of the 600,000 coalition troops were killed or injured.
On the other hand, the Six-Nation Alliance Army was an army in name only, but in fact it was a group of free laborers. It had not experienced much formal military training, and its combat power could only be described as "scum".
Countries that have been defeated will be lambs to be slaughtered when facing the Ming army, and they will conquer the world without any effort.
"Zhu Houzhao is so cruel."
After seeing through Zhu Houzhao's overall plan, Zhu Di couldn't help but give a thumbs up and praised: "I thought my father was the most ruthless in the old Zhu family, but today I realized that the most ruthless in the old Zhu family is you."
"Drawing the six countries into the quagmire of war, and letting the six countries and the Meng Yuan consume each other, it's absolutely amazing!"
