The army gathered by the Northern Yuan Dynasty did not directly attack the Ming Dynasty bunkers or city walls.

Instead, they gathered near the Liaohe River and then acted like they wanted to launch a large-scale attack.

Of course, there will be no slightest neglect in the Ming Dynasty, and all preparations are complete.

But so far, there has been no direct and large-scale conflict.

The only ones are just scouts of 20 or 30 people, meeting in the wild, etc.

The Ming Dynasty also discovered that the Beiyuan side did not intend to confront him head-on.

Since Zhang Yu knew this, he began to set up tactics, and he did not intend to fight with Beiyuan head-on.

Anyway, I have sufficient food and grass, and I have defensive facilities to wait for work.

As for the city outside the grassland, Zhang Yu wanted them, the Northern Yuan people, to attack quickly.

Anyway, the Liaohe River is still a bit far away from the border trade in Yinaiji, and the transportation line in Yinaiji is very safe. The tribes in Beiyuan must go there if they want to buy supplies.

Most of the caravans on the road were caravans from the Beiyuan side. Wang Baobao wanted to attack the border, but it was really difficult to start trade, unless he wanted to be enemies with most of the tribe leaders.

As Zhang Yu expected, even though the Northern Yuan Dynasty King Baobao had already struggled with the large army, he did not dare to go to Yi Naiji to attack the border trade directly.

It’s not that he was afraid of the defensive power on the border trade side of the Ming Dynasty. This is of course one of them, but what he was even more afraid of offending all the grassland nobles. If that was true, he would become the target of public criticism.

If you go directly to attack border trade, it would be better to force the tribe leaders not to do business with the Ming Dynasty.

Anyway, the effect is the same offending the nobles, so Wang Baobao gathered a large army and deliberately angered the Ming Dynasty and asked the Ming Dynasty to take the initiative to cancel the trade.

This has nothing to do with him. Isn’t it normal to fight a war?

It’s autumn and winter, I go down to trade stocks and grab some things. This is how people in the grassland do it.

On the contrary, Zhang Yu's stalemate with him made Wang Baobao feel a little headache. If the Ming Dynasty could not conceal, it would not necessarily be able to achieve the purpose of annoying the Ming Dynasty.

After all, there will be no casualties, and there will be no pressure from the people or the officialdom to the central court.

Zhang Yu also knew his advantages and did not go out to fight against Wang Baobao.

And he also knew that even if he went out, Wang Baobao would not face the battle head-on.

Although His Highness of the King of Liao invented many powerful weapons, armor, etc., nothing could catch up with the war horses on the grassland.

Speed ​​has always been Wang Baobao's advantage, otherwise he would not have been more and more courageous in the past few decades, and he would have been able to escape every time.

The two armies are still in a stalemate, while Zhu Qi, who is in Liaoyang, is busy with border trade every day.

Although he has arranged many students and those who are proficient in mathematics and economy to go to border trade to deal with tariffs and other detailed matters.

But he still needs to make decisions on many big and small things. Who asked Zhu Yuanzhang to hand over all these things to them?

Of course, there is no need to mention this aspect of trade. There is a lot of trade volume every day. In addition, more and more grassland leaders hope to come and do business with the Ming Dynasty.

Some tribal leaders on the grassland even told Liao King Zhu Qi that they wanted to join the Ming Dynasty.

Obviously, the border trade with the Ming Dynasty during this period has made them taste the sweetness. If they can be an idle lord in the Central Plains, who would have been willing to go to a bitter and cold place like the grassland to endure hardships?

What's more, most of them had experienced the last glory of the end of the Yuan Dynasty. Although there were constant wars at that time, they were at least officials and nobles of the Yuan Dynasty.

All I enjoy is rich and elegant clothes, but now that I have been driven out of the Central Plains, these things are naturally gone.

Zhu Qi naturally spoke kindly to these people, and they all said verbally that there was no problem.

After joining me, I was all the ministers who had made meritorious service, but in fact I had no intention of attracting them now.

After all, the two sides are still fighting. If they are recruited at this time, no one can tell what unexpected happens.

And the most important thing is that Zhu Qi did not trust these nobles on the grassland, and if he occupied the grassland in the future, he would definitely not be able to continue to be leaders.

Think about what they had done to harm the grassland when they led the grassland before.

What's more, they have a deep hatred with the people on the Ming Dynasty.

Will they continue to be nobles and ordinary people in the Ming Dynasty agree?

Do those officials in the Ming Dynasty agree?

Even Zhu Yuanzhang would not agree.

It is naturally impossible to keep the remaining poisons of the previous dynasty until now, so Zhu Qi and his team's ultimate goal is to kill all the dirty officialdoms of the Northern Yuan Dynasty.

Of course, we still have to be at peace with them now.

While fighting here, Zhu Qi was also arranging more trade on the other end.

A steady stream of purchases of various kinds of grains from the Beiyuan region, and the more purchases of these grains, the less.

The Ming Dynasty sold materials to the Northern Yuan Dynasty, which did not include grain ore, or sold as much as iron ore. But I would be embarrassed to ask for grain, and I would not sell a grain of rice.

Because there are so many Jinyiwei in the border area, it is still very difficult if someone wants to smuggle food.

As a result, a scene appeared on the border, with tens of thousands of people tangled up on both sides, but no one fought with each other, just trying to anger each other.

Wang Baobao saw no results, and the border trade of the Ming Dynasty continued to be in full swing.

I knew that the Liao King Zhu Qi must have seen through his plan. It was clearly the old god's plan to continue to do trade.

Then he purchased the grain from Beiyuan and planned to starve himself to death slowly.

Wang Baobao is very clear about the importance of these foods. What can he do if he gets a basket of Ming Dynasty banknotes?

Can these papers be eaten? Not to mention the metals, they must not be eaten.

The forged weapons and armor are not the opponents of the new weapons and armor of the Ming Dynasty.

It was equivalent to the Ming Dynasty taking some garbage to exchange for its precious food and war horses.

The most important thing is that even if I see it, I have no choice, because this is already the general trend and there is no way to prevent the Ming Dynasty's banknotes from circulating in the Northern Yuan Dynasty.

This is really a murderous plot.

Even if he knew this, there was no way. Wang Baobao could only bite the bullet and think about whether he could completely anger others.

The best way is naturally to massacre the people in the Ming Dynasty.

It would be the best to let the people on the border not want to do business with the grassland anymore.

But he tried all kinds of ways and had no chance to massacre the people of the Ming Dynasty.

The reason is no different. The current strategy of the Ming Dynasty is to withdraw all the residents of the town into the Great Wall as long as they occupy the territory on the grassland, and implement the strategy of strengthening the walls and clearing the fields on the grassland.

Except for several important towns in border trade, there are no other civilians who kill them.

Even some herders who have not returned to the gates are unwilling to go back.

These herders originally spoke Dayuan words and could not even speak Chinese.

I also think that I am a person on the grassland, and killing them is nothing to do.

The people on the Ming Dynasty would not have any rebellious mentality at all.

Fortunately, a turning point soon occurred, and Wang Baobao decided to attack a city.

Force the Ming Dynasty to fight with him. Of course, it is impossible to fight really. The main thing is to kill the opponent's vitality.

But Wang Baobao had a very beautiful idea and knew that the other party's commander was a general named Zhang Yu.

He used to be a staff officer in the Northern Yuan Dynasty, but later surrendered to the Ming Dynasty.

In Wang Baobao's opinion, such a general should not be much more powerful even if he has some skills.

Although I heard before that he guarded the Liaohe River so impure and not airtight.

But at that time his opponent just asked him to say such a mediocre person.

Wang Baobao originally thought that even if he faced Zhang Yu, he would have a chance of winning.

What's more, he took the initiative outside, so Wang Baobao quickly sold a flaw to Zhang Yu'er. Zhang Yu did not disappoint him, and soon led a team of nearly 10,000 people to cross the Liaohe River to pursue him.

The two men confronted each other on the south bank of the Liao River first, and then began to charge and fight.

In terms of number of people, Wang Baobao must have the advantage, and in terms of morale, the Ming Dynasty naturally has the advantage.

Zhang Yu also knew that there was no trick in this battle. Since the other party was planning to fight a war of attrition with him, it was a rare opportunity for the Beiyuan side, and why did he do it?

This is also the reason why Zhang Yu led his troops to pursue the Northern Yuan Dynasty Baobao.

Besides, Zhang Yu has already made complete preparations and has the confidence to win, which is the latest item produced by His Highness the King of Liao - landmines.

This thing is so amazing. Zhang Yu was shocked when he saw a landmine for the first time.

This kind of killing weapon appeared on the battlefield. To be honest, if I were Wang Baobao, I wouldn't want to confront the Liao King head-on.

There is no beginning at all. It is really terrifying that people can be killed by a thousand miles away.

Wang Baobao naturally didn't know that the Ming Dynasty had equipped Zhang Yu with a huge killing weapon like landmines.

He also wanted to gain an advantage by relying two or three times the number of people in the Ming army.

Then the Ming Dynasty was so angry that it closed the border trade.

It is best to completely intensify the conflict between the two countries, and then rob and other things yourself.

Then, taking advantage of this wave of offensive, all the Ming Dynasty banknotes in the Northern Yuan Dynasty were forcibly banned.
