Therefore, Zhu Yuanzhang turned his attention to the north. 1367165438+10, Zhu Yuanzhang appointed Xu Da as the chief conqueror and Chang Yuchun as the deputy general, leading 250,000 troops to carry out the northern expedition. During the Northern Expedition, he put forward the slogan of "expelling Land Rover, restoring China, laying a foundation for the past and relieving the Sri Lankan people". At this time, Yuan Shundi trusted Lama and was addicted to magic dance and sensual enjoyment.
At the beginning of November, Xu Dajun went to Pi and ordered Zhang Xingzu to lead an army from Xuzhou to the north and capture Jining and Dongping. At this point, Wang Xuan and Wang xin rebelled and went to Juzhou to recruit soldiers in an attempt to stop Zhang Xingzu from going north. Xu Da immediately invaded Yizhou, Wang Xuan was killed and Wang xin fled to Shaanxi. The Yuan armies in Yizhou, Cao Zhou, Haizhou, Shuyang, Rizhao, Ganyu and Yishui fell in succession. Managed to stop in Yizhou, life Han Zheng guarding the Yellow River, army attack Yidu. 1 1 At the end of the month, Yuan Yidu was defeated by Pu Yan, the commander-in-chief of Yuan Yidu. Xu Da attacked Shouguang, Linzi, Changle and Gaoyuan. Leyuan 'an, Changshan and Xincheng all joined in one after another.
At the beginning of December, Zhang Xingzu went to Dongping, forcing Yuan to chase Feng De to Dong 'e and Anshan, forcing Yuan to surrender, Du Tianyou and Jiang Xing, and then besieging Jining. Yuan Shoujiang Chen Bing fled directly. At the beginning of December, Xu Da led the troops to Jinan, Yuan surrendered to Dourgen, and Yuan generals from Mizhou, Putai and Zouping also surrendered one after another. Xu Da decided to continue a little eastward, ordered Fu Youde to attack Laiyang, led the troops back to Yidu, and attacked Dengzhou and Laizhou eastward. Seeing that the situation in Shandong was critical, Zong beat the right prime minister, Qiu Zhiyuan entrusted Heqi, Zhongshu Pingzhang political affairs Hu, and the left prime minister of Shaanxi Province Tu Lu to March into Shandong. However, all the generals disobeyed orders.
In March 1368, after Xu Da basically occupied Shandong, he attacked the capital of song dynasty from Jining. At the same time, some troops were sent to Xuchang via Yongcheng, Henan Province, and Deng Yu was ordered to lead troops from Xiangyang, Anlu and Jiangling to attack Nanyang, Henan Province in the north to cooperate with the main battle of the Northern Expedition. At the end of March, Xu Dajin arrived in Chen Qiao. Li Ye, the governor of the capital of song dynasty, drove the soldiers and civilians to the west, and Yuan led Zuo Jun Bi to surrender. After Xu Da entered the capital of song dynasty, he immediately rode through the middle bay and attacked Luoyang to the west.
At the beginning of April, Xu Dajun entered Tal Bay in Luoyang from Hulao Pass, and Yuan arranged 50,000 troops north of Luoshui, which was forcibly breached by Chang Yuchun and retreated to Shaanxi. Wang Ali Zhou, who was stationed in Luoyang, saw that the tide was gone and led officials and people to surrender. Xu continued to take Song, Shaanxi, Chen and Ruzhou, and ordered Feng to lead troops to attack Tongguan. Li Siqi and Zhang Si, Yuan generals who retreated to Tongguan from the capital of song dynasty, heard that the army was going to approach Tongguan again, and quickly led the troops to flee to the west. The Ming army continued to conquer Gansu, Qin and Lanzhou to the west, and advanced to Lintao. Li Siqi was cornered and had to surrender. Xu Da ordered Xue Xian to attack Xining and led an army to attack Qingyang.
At the beginning of May, it successively captured Anding, Huizhou, Jingning and Longde, and passed through Xiaoguan to Pingliang. On the one hand, we divided our troops to the strategic places of Yan 'an and Jingzhou, on the other hand, we sent Zhang Huan to lead the cavalry to scout Qingyang. As early as the Ming army captured Lintao, Zhang Si told his younger brother Zhang and his department to guard Qingyang, while he fled to Ningxia and was captured. Zhang Huan sent someone to persuade Zhang to surrender. Zhang learned that his brother was punished and decided to surrender to Ming, but he soon rebelled. Xu ordered Qingyang City to be surrounded on all sides. Zhang Xian was resisted and asked for help from the Great Wall. In order to save Qingyang, Hong Yubing contained the Ming army in three ways, all the way to Datong and Taiyuan, all the way to Fengxiang and all the way to Jingzhou. In mid-July, Hong Yu attacked Yuanzhou from Hana, which greatly changed the war situation. Xu Da saw that the granary soldiers were fierce, so he temporarily took the defensive, ordered Xu Lishou to pass a horse, Ye Shizhen to keep Peng Yuan, Zheng Weishou to keep Yizhou, Fu Youde and Xue Xian to keep the wake, and all the points were under control. Soon, Habu captured Jingzhou, which caused Xu Da's army to be caught between Scylla and Charybdis. Thanks to Feng's rescue from a horse pass, Hazare was repelled. At the beginning of August, Zhang's salary in Qingyang was exhausted and foreign aid was hopeless. His Ministry will surrender in Kaesong. A few days later, Kuku's troops sent to Datong and Fengxiang were also defeated by the Ming army.
1368 On July 27th, Xu Da conquered Tongzhou. On August 2, we surrounded Dadu, but most of them were unprepared. The Yuan Dynasty perished.
After the demise of the Yuan Dynasty, the remnants of the Mongolian army continued to attack. Wang Baobao, the general of the Yuan Dynasty, supported 100,000 troops and stayed in Taiyuan, Shanxi, the biggest enemy of the Ming Dynasty. Xu Da led the army into Shanxi, and soon won Zezhou and Luzhou to gain a foothold. Wang Baobao is eager to fight it out. Going north from Taiyuan to the metropolis, I want to fight Xu Da.
Xu Da received a report and decided to take Taiyuan to save Dadu instead of Li according to Liu Bowen's plan. When he heard that Taiyuan was in danger, he rushed to save Li, led tens of thousands of cavalry, camped at the gates of Taiyuan, and invited Xu Da to fight a decisive battle.
Xu Da held his ground, killed Yuan Bing's spirit first, highlighted Indiana Jones at night, and raided Wang Baobao barracks at night. Xu Da took the lead and rode a surrendered black horse, like a Howard duck in the dark. Before Wang Baobao went into battle, he escaped under the protection of the defeated soldiers.
Wang Baobao fled to Datong and moved from Datong to Dingxi. In the winter of 1369, he led an army to besiege the Ming army in Lanzhou. Xu Da rate main arrived, in the north of Dingxi. This time, Xu Da decided to fight Wang Baobao. Under the confrontation between the two sides, Xu Da wiped out more than 80,000 troops, but only a few people with their wives and children fled to Shangdu, the birthplace of Yuan people, to protect the Prince.
In February 1369, Xu Da crossed the Yellow River to the west. When the army reached Lutai, Yuan fled from Zhang Si Road. Xu Dalian and Feng Yuan,,, Ningyuan, sent general Feng to Lintao, but Yuan surrendered without a fight. He divided his troops to conquer Lanzhou and fled to Ningxia via Pingliang and Zhangsi Road. Soon, Qingyang ran out of grain and grass, and Zhang Kaicheng surrendered to meet the enemy. Xu Da led the car into the city, but Zhang and his son were captured alive. The battle of Qingyang marked the complete pacification of Shaanxi by Xu Da.
In the first month of A.D. 1370, Xu Da was appointed as the general of Lu, and the soldiers were divided into two ways. Li Wenzhong led the East Route Army out of Juyongguan and chased Hui Yuan Zong in the north; Xu Da, Feng, Deng Yu and Tang He led marked troops out of Tongguan and attacked Anding West. Before the war, Zhu Yuanzhang ordered Hua Yunlong, Jin Chaoxing and Wang Xingzu to attack Yunzhou in advance to attract the enemy's attention and coordinate Xu Da and Li Wenzhong. In February, Hua Yunlong attacked Yunzhou, Jin Chaoxing conquered Dongsheng, and Wang Xingzu conquered Wuzhou and Shuozhou.
Xu Da led the marked army to war. In April, Kim arrived in Anding. Yuan Jiangku was besieging Lanzhou. Knowing that Xu Da's army had arrived, he retreated to settle down and fight. Tunjun got off the village in Yanbei driveway, and Xu Da ordered Feng to lead his troops to Shen Er Fish Array. The two sides fought fiercely for a day, and the outcome was not even. Kuku then sent more than 1,000 people to rob the Ming army camp from Infernal Affairs, which plunged the Ming army into chaos. Xu Da fought personally, and the enemy will be defeated in the future. The next day, Xu Da stepped forward and defeated the Yuan Army. Only led a few followers to rush to the north. After Hong Yu's defeat, Xu Da ordered Tanghe to March into Ningxia, Deng Yu to make a expedition to Hezhou, and himself captured Mianzhou and Xingyuan in the south.
Li Wenzhong's East Route Army left Juyongguan in February and crossed Yehuling to Xinghe, forcing the defenders of the local Yuan Army to land, then crossed Camel Mountain, attacked Chahar and captured Zhu Meng and Sha Daha, the generals of the Yuan Army. In May, Hui Yuan Zong died, and Li Wenzhong arrived in Yingchang all the way, capturing Ba Li, who was bought by Di Zi of Hui Yuan Zong, and hundreds of kings and generals. Another son of Zong, Ai You, knew Li Dala and led dozens of cavalry to escape. On the way back to Li, he attacked Xingzhou again, captured Jiang, the general of the Yuan Army, and captured 37,000 people of the Yuan Army. When the army won victory after victory, Zhu Yuanzhang greeted the three armed forces in Longjiang, rewarded Dafeng, and awarded Xu Da's founding minister, Cheng Shangwu, Dr. Jin Guanglu, You, Tai Fu, and Zhongshu Youfang, joined the army to run state affairs, changed the national seal to Wei Guogong, and granted hereditary vouchers.
In the first month of A.D. 137 1 year, Dala and Kuku in Zhili, Ai Yu gathered in Helin, taking advantage of the vast territory beyond the Great Wall to recuperate and prepare for a comeback. In view of this, Xu Da was ordered to go to Peiping to train foot soldiers and repair the city, and moved 32,000 desert adherents to Beiping to settle down and strengthen defense. In July, Xu Da was ordered to be transferred to Shanxi for training. At this time, Yuan Prime Minister, Yuan Generals Gao Jianu, Harry Zhang and Naha Chu occupied Liaodong Kaiyuan, Liaoyang, Shenyang, Jinshan and other places, waiting for an opportunity to go south.
In A.D. 1372, he sent troops to expand the outline again. Xu Da marched in the middle for General Lu, and the deputy general left, attacking from the east road, and General Xi attacking from the west road, each with 50,000 soldiers riding Indiana Jones. Xu Da Road underestimates the enemy, and the first battle is unfavorable, with tens of thousands of casualties. Zhu Yuanzhang didn't ask because of Xu Da's great contribution. Wen is also unfavorable, and he is about to withdraw. Only the Shengfeng United Army won the victory. In A.D. 1373, Xu Da led his generals to the frontier, returned to Peiping after victory, defended the frontier, and returned to Beijing three years later.
