After Zhu Di launched the Battle of Jingnan, he quickly took control of Beiping City and attacked Juyong Pass, boosting the morale of the rebels and quickly gathering tens of thousands of his soldiers. Because Zhu Di was under the banner of "Jing Difficulty", he certainly could not recognize Zhu Yunjiao's orthodox status, so he abolished the "Jianwen" era name and continued to use Zhu Yuanzhang's "Hongwu" era name.
In this way, Zhu Di changed from an imperial uncle to an anti-thief, and he could not wash his face anyway. Since the rebellion has already occurred, Zhu Yunjiao, in addition to being shocked, must also find a way to put down the rebellion as soon as possible. However, when Zhu Yunjiao dispatched troops, he found that the situation was worse than imagined, because all the founding generals with outstanding military talents and outstanding military achievements had basically been slaughtered.
Compared with such arrogant generals as Feng Sheng and Lan Yu, Geng Bingwen's fame is not great, but his merits are not small. When Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhang Shicheng were fighting, Geng Bingwen served as the defender of Changxing City, and he actually held it for 10 years, dragging Zhang Shicheng to death. Without Geng Bingwen, Zhu Yuanzhang would not have been able to defeat Chen Youyu with a single blow, and it was very likely that he would fall into the situation of being attacked by the enemy on his stomach and back. It can be said that Geng Bingwenli had made great contributions, and Zhu Yuanzhang named him the "Marquis of Changxing", which is enough to show the importance attached to him.
But the problem is that Geng Bingwen is good at staying in the rear, not a fierce general who charges into the battlefield, if he is allowed to confront Zhu Di on the battlefield, the result is really difficult to say. However, Zhu Yunjiao's biggest advantage is that his family foundation is much thicker, equivalent to using the entire Ming Dynasty to fight against Beiping, there is no need to face it directly, as long as he finds an important city to defend, he can drag Down Zhu Di.
Zhu Yunxiong did the same at first, he gave Geng Bingwen an army of 300,000, if he formulated a battle plan according to normal ideas, first defended the city to avoid its sharp edge, and then waited until the Yan army ran out of vigor, and then attacked in full force, 300,000 people were completely crushed, Zhu Di and his followers were afraid that they would be flattened.
However, Zhu Yunxiong's woman's benevolence laid the foundation for the fiasco of the Battle of Jingnan, and when Geng Bingwen went out on the expedition, he explained that the other party could not hurt his uncle under any circumstances. The emperor said this, and when Geng Bingwen commanded the battle, he became afraid of the tail, neither daring to attack on a large scale, nor daring to be too weak, and losing the fighter in repeated hesitation.
From ancient times to the present, those who hesitate in major wars are doomed to have no good end, and they should have the ability to kill and make decisions in special periods, otherwise they will only drag down their subordinates. Zhu Yunxiong cherished his reputation too much, which directly affected Geng Bingwen's combat deployment, and after he rushed to the front line with 300,000 people, he actually divided his troops into three roads and stationed themselves, forming a corner trend, planning to slowly advance forward.
Zhu Di saw Geng Bingwen's intentions at a glance, and he sent the fierce general Zhang Yu to lead an army to face Geng Bingwen head-on, and this person was so bold that he dared to attack the enemy camp on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival. Perhaps it was Heavenly Help Zhu Di, the number of soldiers and horses in the imperial court was too large, so that many soldiers looked down on the Yan army, thinking that the rebels were not worth mentioning at all, and as a result, they were drunk and drunk during the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the two wings of the army deployed by Geng Bingwen were quickly destroyed.
Subsequently, Geng Bingwen gathered the large army into one place, but did not dare to take the initiative to attack, but put on a defensive posture. Geng Bingwen did have a lot of ideas to defend the city, but in the field battle, he seemed to be too conformist, was it possible to put the position of the large army well, and the other side would charge head-on?
Sure enough, just when Geng Bingwen was looking forward to Zhu Di, the other side had already taken thousands of soldiers and horses around to the rear and suddenly launched an attack. Although there were only a few thousand soldiers and horses, because Zhu Di personally led people to charge, the morale of the Yan army was particularly strong, and it repeatedly shuttled among hundreds of thousands of people, and Geng Bingwen tried his best to barely gather the troops, and then fled in a hurry.
At that time, Geng Bingwen fled with tens of thousands of people, zhu di only took more than 30 people behind him and chased after him, but Geng Bingwen did not dare to return to the army to counterattack, because he felt that Zhu Di was ready to ambush. This Geng Bingwen was also strange, when he should have doubted whether the other party was using a plan, he seemed confident, and when he should take the initiative to attack, he was stuck in his feet, resulting in the complete loss of the good situation.
At this point, Zhu Yunjiao could only blame his grandfather Zhu Yuanzhang, why did he not leave him Blue Jade or Feng Sheng, even if there were Lu Zhongheng, Fei Ju and the like.
