[In the fourth year of Hongwu (1371), Zhu Yuanzhang sent two armies of water and roads to attack the Mingxia regime entrenched in central Shu. deadlock.

Under the heroic battles of the North Route Army and the West Route Army, the young master of the Ming Xia regime, Ming Sheng, surrendered. Although there were occasional small battles in other places, the Bashu area was basically pacified and entered the Ming Dynasty.

In the 14th year of Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang finally chose to use force to solve the Southwest issue after failing to surrender many times. He sent Fu Youde, Lan Yu, and Mu Ying to lead troops to pacify Yunnan. 】

Ying Zheng: "Except for Yunnan, Bashu was the last to use troops in the Ming Dynasty, and it was the same when Liu Xiu unified the world.

All the way to advance in Bashu has been nothing more than overcoming numerous mountains in the north and breaking through the natural dangers of the Yangtze River Canyon in the east. "

Liu Xiu: "The reason why the Ming army was able to recruit and surrender the Yuan army all the way is that the Ming court was good at appeasing the troops who surrendered. If they can surrender each other without bloodshed, it will be a good thing for each other, reducing the casualties of each other and the loss of military resources."

Zhu Houzhao: "The Taizu treated the Mongols equally, and absorbed a large number of Mongols into the army, so that Ming had a horse army as powerful as the Huns' army in the Han Dynasty."

[After the Ming Dynasty unified the world, in dealing with the border tribes, it took the old seal of the Yuan court, rewarded the new seal of the Ming Dynasty, and set up more prison guards to manage the border areas.

In the process of unifying the world in the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang adopted "many feudalism and public establishment, but still employing monks" and set up the command and envoy of Wusi Tibetan Travel Capital in Tibetan areas, and the command and envoy of Duo Gan Xingdu to manage Tibetan areas .

On the northwest line, the Ming court adopted the policy of recruiting the Mongolian nobles, enlisting and rewarding the leaders of various tribes, and successively set up four guards in the west of Jiayuguan, including Anding, Aduan, Quxian, and Handong, and the Ming army entered the Hami area. .

In the Mintao area of ​​Hehuang, the Ming Dynasty set up Hezhou, Xining, Minzhou, Taozhou and other guards, and implemented the ruling policy of "mainly relying on the flow and supplemented by the soil" to rule the Hehuang tribes.

On the front line of Liaodong, the Ming court set up Taining, Duoyan, and Fuyu Sanjiwei in Liaodong, which belonged to the Daning Dusi and managed the eastern tribes. 】

Liu Che: "It seems that the later dynasties prefer to use this method of rewarding the chiefs of the tribes for the management of the prisons, rather than setting up counties. This method can reduce local expenditures, but it is prone to rebellion."

[In addition, Zhu Yuanzhang sent troops to the Northern Expedition many times to deal with the remnants of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, which dealt a heavy blow to the Northern Yuan forces.

In the 20th year of Hongwu, Feng Sheng led the Ming army in the Northern Expedition to Liaodong. After a series of battles, the Ming army gradually took the initiative, and the prime minister of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, Nahachu, led 20 troops to surrender.

In the 21st year of Hongwu, Lan Yu led 15 soldiers and horses in a decisive battle with the main forces of the Beiyuan Dynasty in Yuerhai, and captured more than [-] nobles and tribesmen of the Beiyuan Dynasty.

In this battle, only dozens of people, including Tugusi Timur, the Great Khan of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, escaped. During the escape, Tugusi Timur was killed by a general, and the Mongolian tribes fell into civil strife. The northern border of the Ming Dynasty was stable since then. For more than ten years. 】

In the 13th year of Hongwu (1380), Yingtianfu Palace.

Zhu Yuanzhang saw that the Ming army had achieved a lot of results in the next few military deployments. He smiled and said to Empress Ma and Prince Zhu Biao beside him: "I have said it a long time ago. It is not that I am afraid of them, the so-called descendants of Genghis Khan. , but unwilling to commit more crimes.

If they are willing to accept the rule of Ming Dynasty peacefully, why should we die so many people! "

"Father's words are reasonable. Since ancient times, when soldiers came out, regardless of victory or defeat, sergeant casualties were inevitable. It's a pity that these tribes were afraid of power and did not fear morality. Only when they were subdued would they be willing to accept Da Ming's principles. "

Zhu Biao has been studying several released videos of Emperor Wu these days. From these videos, he not only saw the merits and demerits of the emperors and leaders of military groups, but also saw the Siyi issue of each dynasty, the enfeoffment system and the prefectures and counties. The question of which system is better and which is worse, as well as the question of military power.

"Biao'er is right."

Seeing his eldest son getting better and better, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly sighed: "I hope I didn't commit any irreparable mistakes in the future, and I can give you and your mother some longevity."

Then the familiar sound of serious music reappeared, and the part of the fault that made Zhu Yuanzhang a little uneasy finally came.

[In the history of expeditions to the grassland tribes in Mobei, and across the desert to attack the enemy's important towns, the Central Plains Dynasty often had to face logistical supply problems that were aggravated by the concentration of troops.

In the fifth year of Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang sent Feng Sheng, Xu Da, and Li Wenzhong to divide the troops into the West, East and Middle East, with more than [-] people on each side, to attack the Northern Yuan Dynasty.

In this battle, only Feng Sheng's West Route occupied the Hexi line and opened up the Western Regions, while the Xu Da Department of the Central Route Army and the Li Wenzhong Department of the East Route Army suffered heavy losses. 】

Liu Bang: "The Xiongnu, Turks, Jin people, and Mongols have always faced this problem in the northern expedition of the Central Plains dynasty. These grassland tribes come and go like the wind, and it is difficult for the Han army to seize the main force and wipe them out."

Zhao Xu: "Ah, the first emperor's five-way expedition against Xia failed. Apart from the fact that the generals were fighting against each other and couldn't unite against the enemy, transporting food and grass across the vast sea was also a huge problem."

[Although the Ming Dynasty often defeated the remnants of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, because the Ming Dynasty did not set up a military and political institution to govern Mobei, once the tribes in Mobei settled down, they would go south to invade the border towns of the Ming Dynasty.

Therefore, the Ming army can only guarantee stability for more than ten years after each victory in the Northern Expedition. 】

Liu Che: "This... is a bit of an excuse. From my point of view, there seems to be no dynasty in the future that can rule Mobei all the time. Isn't it all a dozen of fights in exchange for decades of peace!"

Zhu Yuanzhang: "The Tang Dynasty set up a large number of Governor's Mansions and Protectorate Mansions in the border areas, which cost nothing, but did not benefit China's affairs much. It increased the burden on the court. I think it is inappropriate."

[The Ming court set up a number of Jimi guards in the northwest and Liaodong to win over the tribes of Mongolia, but these Jimi guards were invariably rebellious and became a serious problem on the border.

The Ming court's move was called Jiji, but it was actually a national policy of passive defense, which eventually led to more serious border troubles and shrinking territory. 】

Sima Yan: "Who can save me, I haven't had a good night's sleep since I found out about Wuhu."

Li Shimin: "garrisoning troops in areas where the Tibetan tribes gather and implementing the system of prefectures and counties is not costly for the Tang Dynasty, but the management of Jimi has reduced expenditure after all. As for whether it can deter these Jimi prefectures, in the final analysis, it still depends on the court. strength.

As long as the central court is strong, these prefectures will not dare to cause chaos. The county system can only be set up in some important places, and it is impossible to set up in all the areas where the tribes gather. "

Zhu Yuanzhang: "How come? I will ask Qi Zhen and Hou Zhao about them later."

Zhu Houzhao: "Indeed, but how can these grassland tribes be wiped out or completely subdued! Even if the army goes north and wipes out the main force of these tribes, maybe another powerful tribe will rise up 20 years later."
