What is the concept of cavalry?

There used to be a saying that "the Jurchens are invincible", which refers to the fact that the cavalry is full of 10,000, and when the queue is unfolded, it is overwhelming, boundless, and extraordinary!

Now that the Mongols have lost such a large army, they have achieved very little success, they have not achieved shocking results, they have not captured large states and counties, they have not plundered huge amounts of goods and people, and it is inconceivable that thousands of people have been lost in such a land.

Overnight, the two-legged sheep on the opposite side turned into a swift falcon, they were calm and calm, holding on to every inch of land, fighting for their parents, wives and children, saving every bullet and not wasting a single bullet.

They are becoming more and more mature, more and more professional, and if they want to shoot, they try to make every bullet make the homes of the Khalkha Mongols orphans, tears and crying!

The three major tribes and the three khans met again, and someone clearly said: "You can't fight like this, otherwise the children won't be able to see their hometown!" ”

The cavalry of the three major Khalkha tribes retreated on all fronts, putting gold on their faces and saying that because winter was coming, they would return to their hometowns for a ...... Nonsense, this is Monan, they are back to Mobei, isn't it colder!

The leader of the Horqin tribe, Lobu Danzhu, found Tushetu Khan Gon and preached: "Great Khan, the army can spend the winter in the local area, it is warm, we are willing to provide all offerings, and it is convenient to continue to march in the coming year!" ”

Very favorable conditions, but Gunbu's heart had changed, and he told Luo Bu Danzhu: "There is no coming year, and we will not come again after we go back." ”

"Ahh The shocked Luo Bu Danzhu said: "Great Khan, if you don't come, what should we do?" ”

"Hey, what should I do?" Gunbu said hesitantly: "If I were you, be ready for war, and the Han people will definitely come to your grassland next year to sweep!" ”

"The Han people are the great enemies of our Mongols, the Great Khan, we fight the enemy together, and the chances of victory are greater!" Lobu Danzhu tries to convince Gunbu.

"Fight, we can provide you with some support." Gon Bu perfunctory.

Seeing Luo Bu Danzhu's dejected look, Gunbu felt a little unbearable, and told him: "In case things are not harmonious, you can go to Mobei to find Ben Khan." ”

Gunbu left, and Rob Danzhu looked at his back, and couldn't help but be dazed!

If things are really not harmonious, what can you do when you go to Mobei, send people under the fence, and the environment in Mobei is even worse.

But, if the Han people knock on the door?!

The Horqin tribe colluded with the Khalkha Mongols to eradicate the Han alliance Sunit tribe on the steppe, and even captured many Han people as slaves.

This time it's a big problem!

Luo Bu Danzhu was troubled in his heart, and he had no grudge against the Khalkha Mongols, and his X controlled more than 500,000 large tribes, and tens of thousands of people were killed and injured, so he ran back to Mobei to be a shrinking turtle.

The Han Chinese were all soldiers, and a large number of muskets appeared, putting a lot of pressure on the Mongols.

Don't look at the Mongolian cavalry galloping on the steppe in all directions, but when going south, the Han people control the traffic arteries, the Great Wall stretches for thousands of miles, the real point is just a few famous passes, and other places even if you pick up a big hole in the wall and can't walk, because there is no road, continuous mountains, mountains and mountains, water and water, trees all over the mountains, how to go?

At that time, the population was still small and the development was not enough, and it was not unusual for wolves to run into the county town and be fed as dogs, and tigers to roar at the edge of the city.

In the past, the Tatars and Mongols invaded, the Ming army in the city did not dare to fight, and the Han people outside the city were allowed to be slaughtered, and now the Ming army dares to fight, and the Han people are equipped with muskets, and they are blocking the attack, and the Mongols have no solution, and they want the cavalry to go down the mountain?

I've also played with the musket thing, and I think it's not as easy to use as a bow and arrow, but if everyone fights, the musket may not be the opponent of the bow and arrow!

You're forming a musket formation, it's amazing, but why should I touch you? Isn't it good for me to spank you in the back!

But Luo Bu Danzhu had to admit that the musket was a weapon suitable for all ages, the entry threshold was very low, even women could use it, and it was not a small advantage to ambush the Mongols on both sides of the road!

However, Luo Bu Danzhu is also a little curious, he knows that the Han government guards against its own people more than outsiders, and this government issues guns to the people, so it is not afraid that the people will rebel with guns?

……

Almost in late autumn, the nine sides and 400 miles arrived in Nanjing in a hurry, and the major newspapers in Nanjing were out that night.

"Outside the number, outside the number, the Mongols retreated on all fronts, and the nine sides were as stable as Mount Tai!" The number made the originally worried Nanjing people breathe a sigh of relief, and they took out paper money to buy newspapers to read.

The subjects of Nanjing were most concerned about current affairs, and the news of the southward movement of the Khalkha Mongols, who controlled half a million strings, once made many people unable to sleep.

In addition to the latest border information, there are also the records of the Ming army and the border people against the Mongols, which vividly discloses the situation of the battle with the Mongols, especially the use of muskets by the border people, and even women participating in the war!

Use newspapers to encourage everyone to make a strong contribution, and if you have money, you can defend your family and the country!

Nowadays, paper money has become popular, at least in large cities, paper money is used, and metal money is very rare.

Both China issue banknotes, the value of the currency is very strong, Gaine can cash metal currency Oh, the redemption rate is ten to nine, that is, the face value of a silver dollar banknote, can only be cashed 0.9 silver dollars, missing one percent is the state collection of seigniorage, ruthless enough! In addition, it is half of copper and half of silver, not all of silver, and now that the country is stable, who would want to take a lot of heavy copper coins.

The imperial court has a conscience, vigorously developing the economy, and striving to provide more material for its own people at the same time, but also effectively control prices, the current Ming court, than any previous dynasty has stronger control, the reason is simple, more money, more officials.

The day after the arrival of the border newspaper, the imperial court rewarded the officers, soldiers and border people of the Nine-Border War of Resistance, and gave meritorious service officers and non-commissioned officers the promotion of officials, and praised and honored the people. At the same time, it was announced that the issuance of defense bonds of 10 million silver dollars, with an interest rate higher than that of banks, would be used to support next year's war and to settle border affairs at an early date.

Next year is for sure, so issue bonds.

The 10 million silver dollar bonds were sold in less than three days, first of all, the royal family subscribed for 2 million, the emperor Zhu Youchan bought 1 million (this money was actually from Yan Changwu), the princess bought 300,000, the southeast king bought 200,000, and the rest of the royal family members paid 500,000. The officials and armies of the Ming Dynasty purchased a total of 3 million, and the other 5 million were robbed by the people.

It turned out that Guangdong Province, Fujian Province, and Jiangsu and Zhejiang Province each bought one million, and the rest of the provinces shared it equally, but the officials of Beiping Liudu, Tianjin, Huguang and Sichuan thought that it was too little for them, and even the officials of Yunnan came to join in the fun, saying that they looked down on them?! We in Yunnan have jade, big wood and spices!

Of course, there are many poor people in Yunnan, but there are also many rich people, so why deprive us of the opportunity to serve the country?

This is the result of the education of the family and the country, and everyone agrees with this country, which is in stark contrast to the former Ming Emperor Chongzhen's crying and begging the officials to be generous and the officials turned a deaf ear!

On the third day, the imperial court sent an important official out of Beijing to Xishui, Hubei, to comfort the retired minister Yao Minggong and commend his merits.
