Timur was defeated, and Daming went to the river, surpassing the prosperous Tang, and the most crucial step in the world, and that's it.

For the monarchs, ministers and commoners of the Ming Dynasty, it was a bit unexpected.

Champion Hou is really powerful, but he can be so calm and get rid of this biggest enemy. How on earth did Champion Hou do it?

Could it be that our champion Hou Yongbing is like a god, brave and invincible, like Master Guan, he rode his horse galloping straight into the army of ten thousand horses, chopped off Timur's head, and then returned victorious?

Almost instantly, someone came to tout the champion Hou according to the model of killing Yan Liang and punishing Wen Chou.

It's just that as more news came, the details of this battle became more and more, and the court finally understood the layout of the champion.

The big guy has to admit that the champion Hou Yongbing at this time is really similar to a person, this person is the Grand Master Zhang Ximeng!

Everyone knows that Zhang Ximeng is not good at military, but even Xu Da and Chang Yuchun admit that they can't fight Zhang Ximeng.

No one can compare to Chang Yuchun, and no one can catch up with Xu Da, but above the generals, there is another realm, that is, a true strategist, a master of total warfare.

There is no doubt that Zhang Ximeng is a figure of this level, with a strategic layout and the best in the world.

Champion Hou has followed Zhang Ximeng for many years and has led troops many times. What he has been chasing is Zhang Ximeng's realm.

And this time, the champion Hou really did it.

Who would have thought that the champion Hou confronted Timur in the river, and on the other hand, he dispatched personnel to contact the Golden Horde.

That's right, it was the Golden Horde, one of the Four Great Khanates.

At this time, the Golden Horde was no longer the grand occasion it used to be. It was just defeated by Ross, and the rapidly rising Timurid Empire also threatened the security of the Golden Horde.

The Mongolian Iron Cavalry, which was once unbeatable by no one, is now unbeatable by anyone.

The Champion Hou got the Mongol connections and kept sending messengers there. Even after two consecutive defeats, the Champion Hou still did not change his mind.

He dispatched Feng Guosheng, detoured straight into the Caucasus region, and finally got in touch with the Golden Horde through a show of force.

However, the communication between the two sides was not smooth.

The main problem was the Golden Horde, they believed that the Ming Dynasty overthrew the Yuan Dynasty and destroyed the Northern Yuan, and they were enemies. In any case, the Golden Horde could not help Ming.

However, Feng Guosheng quickly judged the real worries of the Golden Horde.

They were afraid that after Daming had destroyed Timur, they would continue to attack them.

Therefore, the Golden Horde is also communicating with Timur, hoping that the two sides can make peace and jointly deal with the Ming army.

The matter has reached this stage, it is already very dangerous, including Zhu Xi, Zhu Fan, and several other generals, together to advise the champions to strike decisively, and not to hope for the Golden Horde, in case they all unite, Daming's The situation is not good, and it will even repeat the mistakes of the Tang Dynasty.

In the face of internal and external doubts, Champion Hou showed the strategic determination of an outstanding general.

Let the current Mongolians work together, that is a dream!

When Daming made an urgent attack, they might join forces, but if they did not move, they would definitely attack each other and fall into civil strife.

Facts have proved that the judgment of the champion Hou is very accurate.

Timur coveted the territory of the Golden Horde and was unwilling to cede the land and make peace.

Almost at the same time, the Golden Horde was also facing a counteroffensive by the Rus, and the western front kept losing land.

And at this time, another key variable was brought over by the champion Hou, that is the Ottoman Empire!

The ghost knows what means Champion Hou used to turn Osman into an ally of Ming.

Even during this period, Zhu Di made great progress in Tianzhu, gathered many native states, and surrounded the Timurid Empire from the south.

This is where it gets interesting.

Tianzhu, as a place name, fell into disintegration for a long time after the Peacock Dynasty, and there were many states.

After Zhu Di entered Tianzhu, he quickly gained the support of a large number of Tianzhu people.

Zhu Di, who has always had a bad reputation, was actually highly respected this time. Even if he looted everywhere and looted so many people, he was still supported by some Tianzhu people.

This thing is so weird.

But after a careful understanding, you will feel that it is logical, it is simply normal.

Zhu Di's method is also very simple, because to operate overseas, it is impossible to rely on people like Daming alone. It is not to say that there are few people in Daming, but to immigrate overseas, the cost is too high, and it is necessary to be familiar with the local culture and local customs.

So Zhu Di boldly used a group of Tianzhu people.

Moreover, Zhu Di chose the Kshatriya and Vaishya castes... The Tianzhu castes divide people into four major castes. Under the four major castes, there are more than a thousand sub-castes.

There is even a caste who buys vegetables in a certain place, and another caste who sells tea... The ultimate subdivision makes Tianzhu-di chicken feathers, and at the same time, it is extraordinarily stable, and it is difficult for any external force to shake it.

Zhu Di took advantage of this feature and compiled a group of Kshatriyas and Vaishyas.

Do you want to improve your salary? Do you want to be at the top?

As long as you follow Daming, listen to my arrangements, and ensure that your status is getting higher and higher, and your power is getting bigger and bigger... Although Tianzhu people do not have the courage to break through the caste system, they still have the urge to climb up and become a superior person, and very strong.

In this way, Zhu Di won the firm support of a group of Tianzhu people.

How to describe it, Zhu Di is an airborne eldest young master, and these people are Zhu Di's housekeepers, who manage places for Zhu Di, lead troops and horses, and govern the people.

Faced with this situation, Zhu Di was speechless.

Why didn't I find out earlier, this Tianzhu is simply a natural servant!

Their caste system is simply too suitable for foreign forces to manipulate and control.

The cost of ruling is also very low, and it does not even need to arrange many troops and horses. It is enough to use different regions and different castes to check each other.

When he ruled India, he only relied on 9,000 civil servants.

As the heir to Zhang Ximeng's great lack of great virtue, Zhu Di soon wrote a hundred-page memorial to the court. In response to the situation of Tianzhu, Zhu Di suggested that in the future, in all regions, especially the circle around the Indian Ocean, the model of Daming as the master and Tianzhu as the servant should be adopted.

In other words, Daming is the chairman, and Tianzhu people are the general managers. Using them to manage the local area saves time and effort, and the effect is excellent.

In order to prove his theory, Zhu Di also mobilized a military force of up to 100,000 people, that is, some Tianzhu people served as the backbone, and then led the other troops and horses to go north together.

As for the real Ming army, there are only less than 5,000 people, mainly serving as the task of supervising the army.

The wait of the Champion Hou finally paid off, and the Golden Horde thought that its threat was still from Ross in the west. And once Timur won the Ming Dynasty, he may not necessarily march eastward, but attacking the Golden Horde in the north is certain.

So they pulled out fifty thousand people, came around from the Aral Sea, and besieged Timur.

To the west, the Ottoman Empire also sent a powerful cavalry to threaten Timur's back, plus Zhu Di on the southern front.

Champion Hou finally completed the siege of Timur.

There is no doubt that he is above the general trend and has won the victory.

But the champion Hou's brain is still very clear, no matter how much he wins in the overall situation, if the two sides fight decisively, he makes a little mistake, and Timur catches a loophole, and he may still suffer a disastrous defeat.

The reason is very simple, it is such a huge battlefield, with troops and horses from all sides, it is difficult to unite actions and cooperate with each other. There is even a high probability that they will be destroyed by each.

However, we cannot help but think that what the champion Hou has done is useless. On the contrary, in a region far from the mainland, where logistical support is very difficult, in a strategic decisive battle with a powerful enemy, if you cannot fully strive for every advantage, the possibility of defeat will only increase. big.

The Tang Dynasty is a foreshadowing.

Of course, the champion Hou not only contacted the Quartet, he also practiced and cultivated the fields, especially the extensive cultivation of potatoes and sweet potatoes. I have to say that this high-yield crop has indeed helped Daming a lot.

You may not eat it, but it is also good to use potatoes and sweet potatoes to raise pigs and kill them for meat.

The champion Hou has done the most in the Western Regions is Tuntian.

Before the war with Timur, 80% of the military ration of the champion Hou, all depended on the local solution.

In addition, the champion Hou also did one thing. He divided 30,000 Jurchen cavalry from his subordinates and handed them over directly to the Golden Horde.

This move of the champion Hou is very controversial. Some people think that it is very unwise for him to give up the Jurchen soldiers who can fight. Moreover, if the Golden Horde got these people, they might become the next enemy of Ming Dynasty.

But no matter what, the champion Hou still did it, and it really received a miraculous effect!

The Mongols of the Golden Horde have long since lost their **** bravery, and they have been beaten by the Rus.

At this moment, a group of more brave Jurchens were sent to them, and the Golden Horde was instantly revived with blood, and their confidence soared.

They just rely on this army to deal with the Rus.

But if you want to send troops to Rus, you must first deal with Timur.

Contrary to everyone's expectations, the Golden Horde actually launched an attack on Timur... The war in the river finally broke out.

The so-called three minutes on stage, ten years off stage.

The layout has reached this point, and the chance of winning the champion Hou is already very amazing, and it can even be said that it is within easy reach. But the champion Hou refused to give up, and he turned over another card!

That is Timur's generals.

It turns out that in the long-term confrontation, the champion Hou has quietly bought a few Timur's favorite generals. Timur's mobilization, he is clear.

This kind of behavior that does not talk about martial arts is simply jaw-dropping... A false champion, invincible, with ten thousand, rushing to kill the enemy, as if entering a land of no one.

The real champions, all the means, open guns and dark arrows, greet them together, and never talk about martial arts.

Timur can fight fakes, but at this time, he has exposed a huge loophole.

Because of its rapid rise, UU Kanshu www.uukanshu.com has three, six, and nine subordinates. It is very complicated. The champion Hou passed some barbarian merchants, and it is not difficult to buy it. Before the war, it was penetrated like a sieve.

"Sir, Champion Hou's tactics of military use, I'm afraid you have the power of five successes." Zhu Yuanzhang sighed sincerely.

Zhang Ximeng blinked, "70%, at least 70%!"

Lao Zhu couldn't help laughing, "This time I can finally make the golden cauldron."

Zhang Ximeng was shocked, and finally nodded, "Yes, finally the merits are complete, after Da Yu, a new chapter has come!"
