In the current time and space, Wang Baobao has no chance to avenge his past humiliation and wash away the humiliation caused by his previous defeats to Xu Da.
Xu Da defeated the Yuan army on the sixth day of May. Zhentian Lei turned the tide of the battle and captured tens of thousands of Yuan soldiers, and killed many more directly.
This battle greatly wiped out Bei Yuan's effective forces. He Lin's army numbered less than 100,000. Except for Liaodong's 200,000 troops and Yundi's 100,000 troops, Bei Yuan's remaining troops were somewhat stretched at this time.
As long as Li Wenzhong leads the Eastern Route Army to detour from the Central Route Army and successfully join forces with the Central Route Army, the nearly 100,000 Northern Expedition Army will completely drive the Yuan Army out of Lingbei and further eliminate the effective forces of the Northern Yuan Dynasty.
There was no need to wait for the rendezvous. The original battle between Beiyuan's nearly 100,000 troops and Xu Da's 50,000 cavalry troops could be said to be 50,000 vs. 100,000. He had the advantage.
Now, if we wait for the successful rendezvous, we will be fighting one hundred thousand old and weak soldiers against one hundred thousand Yuan army. The advantage lies with me, and there is no suspense.
Xu Da won the battle and received great reinforcements from the Yuan army. He also trapped and killed all the captured Yuan troops.
In April of the third year of Hongwu's reign, Zhu Yuanzhang issued an edict: "I told the general that if he knew it, not only the people who had won the battle, but also the leader Wang Baobao who had surrendered after being defeated, he would not be spared and he would be killed. Only the small army would be spared. After we go to attack Western Shu, we will leave some to defend Western Shu."
It can be seen that most of the Mongolian soldiers who surrendered and were captured during the northern war were executed, and a few young ones were sent to remote areas to guard the borders.
As for the Mongolian and Yuan soldiers in the south of the Yangtze River, except for those who were killed in the war, all those who did not have time to escape were relegated to another book and became a special group of "fallen people".
In order to punish these Yuan Dynasty soldiers and nobles who had oppressed the Han people, Ming Dynasty laws stipulated that degenerates were not allowed to study, were not allowed to take exams, were not allowed to marry civilians, were not allowed to live with civilians, and could only engage in lowly service industries.
In the household registration of the early Ming Dynasty, degenerate people were classified as beggars. Their status was lower than that of prostitutes and only slightly higher than that of beggars. For the descendants of degenerate people, they would always be degenerate people and would never be able to recover.
Because the fallen people did not have the right to receive education, they were basically illiterate for generations. They could only work in the lowest professions in the society at that time, and were looked down upon by everyone.
This kind of political punishment can be said to be more desperate than being punished to guard the border.
From the 200,000 soldiers and civilians that Lao Zhu once captured, only nearly 100,000 female groups were treated well. They spread out in the Central Plains and integrated into the land of China. We can see what happened to those male soldiers.
In addition to his own hatred, Xu Da was unable to deal with these burdens.
The middle route army led by Xu Da continued to advance towards Helin. Li Wenzhong's stowaway was relatively smooth at this time because Xu Da defeated the Yuan army led by Wang Baobao and Wang Baobao to expand the profile of Timur and He Zongzhang.
The original army of Li Wenzhong on the east route attacked Kouwen (now south of Chagannuoer, Inner Mongolia) on June 29. The defenders of the Northern Yuan Dynasty fled after hearing the news, leaving behind a lot of cattle and horse baggage and were captured by the Ming army.
Li Wenzhong left his army to guard Han Zheng's baggage, and led the main force to pursue the Yuan army along the Haramang (today's Hongol, Mongolia) and Luqu Rivers. Northwest of Batu), they fought fiercely with the Yuan general Barbarian Harazhang for many days.
In the end, the Beiyuan Army was defeated and fled. Tens of thousands of Beiyuan troops were captured, but the East Route Army also suffered many casualties.
Li Wenzhong continued his pursuit until he reached Chenghai (now south of Harawuhu and west of Harahu, Mongolia). The various Northern Yuan armies gathered together to attack the Eastern Army.
Seeing that he could not win, Li Wenzhong decided to retreat. He used military tactics to create suspicion and retreated all the way. The Beiyuan army was afraid of an ambush by the Ming army and did not dare to pursue it. The two sides broke away from contact.
Although the Eastern Route Army had certain advantages, it did not completely defeat the Yuan Army it encountered.
Now Li Wenzhong advanced all the way without encountering any resistance along the way, and all the Yuan troops fled.
In addition to He Lin's decree in the face of Xu Da's threat and the mobilization of troops to prepare for a desperate battle, the thunder that appeared in the Ming army also shocked the Yuan army, making them fearful of the unknown.
Where else could they escape? The Yuan army mobilized a large army to launch a defense battle for Helin. The barbarian general Halazhang was also transferred to the Helin defense line, and he and the remnant troops of Timur and He Zongzhang expanded their profile to prepare for a battle with Xu Da's middle route army. A desperate fight.
I can no longer care about other places at this time. If I don’t come, my home will probably be gone.
Without encountering any obstacles, they came from the east and arrived near the Tula River.
And Xu Da's lonely army that went deep into Lingbei has returned and is advancing towards the original strategic goal of Helin.
There was no navigation in the vast prairie, and the losses of his men were relatively serious. There were only more than 40,000 soldiers and horses. Xu Da also fought more cautiously, relying on his telescope to avoid wherever he could.
When enemy troops came, they tried not to engage the Yuan army. Apart from encountering a small group of enemy troops and defeating them, they had no intention of engaging in a decisive battle.
Try to delay as much time as possible to wait for Li Wenzhong's east-route army, and join with it to completely eliminate Meng Yuan's effective forces.
Meng Yuan's eyes focused on Xu Da's middle army, but Xu Da was slippery and could always avoid it, leaving Meng Yuan helpless.
The doctor on the other side, after three full days of treatment, felt hungry and casually ate some food in his operating room and took a rest.
I stayed up until midnight at night. If the existing conditions were not too bad and the physical and mental exertion did not allow it, all the trauma surgeries would have been done almost the same, leaving internal injuries such as broken bones, broken tendons, and poison.
There are still more than a thousand people with internal injuries waiting for treatment. There are hundreds of people who have not made it through, and there are still more than a thousand people left.
"Ti Ling, what should we do with the remaining wounded who have broken bones and tendons? Is there any way to Ti Ling? Please give me your instructions."
One of Zheng Xiong's ideas is more useful than all these doctors put together. Li Si, including the current doctors, are waiting for Zheng Xiong to come up with a good method and then learn it as a technique to beat the odds.
After all, more and more wounded soldiers are getting better through the methods given by Zheng Xiong. The results are showing, and everyone is looking at Zheng Xiong eagerly.
Zheng Xiong did spread his hands and said rather bachelorly.
"No, you really think that I am the reincarnation of a miracle doctor!"
"Whoever is better at setting bones can do it. You have experience in this, and I can't do anything about it."
All the doctors looked disappointed, and then they were preparing for the next bone setting, when Zheng Xiong suddenly said something.
"I don't understand the bone setting officer, but after you complete the bone setting, you can use plaster, that is, white tiger, and add water to fix it. These guys can do whatever they want."
"In addition, after this is done, the army ahead should have captured a lot of cattle, sheep and horses. You can get some milk to replenish them. It will be very beneficial to their future recovery."
"Yes, besides these, I don't know if there are any other instructions for withdrawal."
Li Si was still a little unwilling to give up and continued to ask.
Zheng Xiong left a piece of the back of his head for Li Si, turned around and left.
"No."
