The history to be told today is very interesting, and the general asked: "You escaped, what happened to the 300,000 soldiers?" The manager replied, "My life is not my life?" "So what's going on? This period of history takes place during the Yuan Dynasty, and the protagonist is also Timur.
Timur was also the younger brother of the late Yuan Dynasty, and the official to the imperial master. As we all know, there were many uprisings at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, such as Liu Futong's Red Turban Army Uprising, which dealt a heavy blow to the rule of the Yuan Dynasty. Tamerlane, who also preceded him, slowly moved onto the stage of history in the suppression of the rebel army.
In April 1351, Han Shantong, Liu Futong, and others met in Yingshang County, Fuyang. Kill the white horse and black bull, swear to heaven and earth, and decide to revolt. Unexpectedly, the internal traitors were whistleblown, so that the information leaked, and they were raided and rounded up by the officials and troops, Han Shantong was arrested and killed, and Liu Futong fled back to Yingzhou.
In May of the same year, Liu Futong led a mass uprising in Yingzhou and quickly conquered the city of Yingzhou, "the stone people had one eye, provoking the Yellow River to rebel", igniting the flames of the peasant uprising at the end of the Yuan Dynasty. In September of the same year, Liu Futong marched south and successively captured Runing Province, Gwangju, and Xiju, and the rebel army grew victoriously, expanding the army by 200,000 people.
The Yuan Dynasty government was caught off guard by the sudden outbreak of war, and the Yuan army that had been in the battle for a long time collapsed under the blow of the rebel army, and several units sent to suppress it were completely annihilated by the rebel army one after another. The uprising in Yingzhou soon turned into an anti-riot struggle that swept the country.
At this time, the younger brother of the Yuan Dynasty Minister also led Anthracite Timur to lead an army of 100,000 to suppress the rebel army. How to say it, this is also the first Timur administrative work is quite OK, but the military ability is very poor, and the timidity is going to die. At first, there was a general named Gong Buban beside him. This cargo is quite talented, so that the war progressed quite smoothly and achieved a lot of results.
But not long after, Liu Futong's Red Turban Army took advantage of the night to launch a decapitation operation, killing Gong Buban, and was so frightened that he first pulled out Mu'er's leg and ran, retreating dozens of miles in succession, even giving up the city he had worked hard to build. Later, when he saw his brother retreating, he thought that there were fewer soldiers, so he quickly sent another 200,000 troops to reinforce.
At this point, Timur also held an army of 300,000! It is reasonable to say that there are 300,000 troops, and it is time for Timur to take the initiative to attack first. But who knew that because he was afraid of the previous failure, he did not dare to leave when he led his troops to Shahe, and also engaged in "feudal superstition" activities such as asking gods and asking for help.
As a result, the 300,000 yuan army stayed in Shahe for more than a month, making the soldiers tired and demoralized. One night, the Red Turban Army carried out a night raid, and the movement was quite large. He also thought that there had been a mutiny, and he was scared to death, so he quickly ran away with his relatives and soldiers.
At this critical juncture, the general stopped him and asked, "You escaped, what happened to the 300,000 soldiers?" As the manager, Ye Xian Timur actually replied: "Their life is fate, my life is not life?" In the end, his subordinates failed to persuade him, and Timur escaped in full view of everyone.
As soon as Timur escaped, the 300,000 yuan army was in turmoil, bombed the camp on the spot, and then trampled on each other and attacked and killed, and by dawn there was no one left. In the end, it was also first attached to Mu'er's 300,000 troops, and only 10,000 remnants came back.
