How the Tumu Fort Incident happened

After Ming Yingzong ascended the throne, the Tatars invaded the border, in order to establish personal prestige, Ming Yingzong, who was very happy, listened to the demagogy of the eunuch Wang Zhen, and drove the expedition in person, as a result, Wang Zhen in order to show off his prestige, had to let the army go near and far to take a detour to his hometown Datong, and when he arrived in Datong, he was afraid that the army would step on the crops of his farm, and he would delay the military plane, and was besieged by the Tatar army in Tumubao, and the Mongolian army surrounded Beijing. As a result, the army mutinied, killing the eunuch Wang Zhen, and Ming Yingzong was captured. It was for the change of the civil fort.

During the 14th year of the orthodoxy of the Ming Dynasty, the Ming army was defeated by the Wara army at Tumubao, and Ming Yingzong was captured. Traveled to Tumubao (now Huailaidong, Hebei), was chased up by the Wara army, surrounded the Ming army, the two armies fought, the Ming army was annihilated, Wang Zhen was killed by his subordinates, and Ming Yingzong was captured by the Wara army. It is known as the change of civil engineering.

To put it simply, the emperor has never experienced actual things since he was a child, and he grew up in the deep palace, so he is very close to his playmate (eunuch Wang Zhen) who grew up with him

Wang Zhen has never experienced anything, and his understanding of military affairs is also ** and romance, so when he heard that there were less than 100,000 Mongolian troops coming to invade, he decided to ask the emperor to recruit in person and mobilize all the troops stationed in Beijing (including 500,000 people, and no less than 200,000 combat troops).

So, without preparation, the mobilized army (it took only 3 days, instead of 3 months under normal circumstances) to go on the expedition, but halfway through the process, they found grain and grass, the reconnaissance could not keep up, the morale of the troops was low, and they had to go back.

However, on the way back, he temporarily changed the battle plan several times (Wang Zhen wanted to ask the emperor to go back to his hometown to show off), which led to a near-collapse of morale, and the march was overtaken by the enemy without reconnaissance, and he made the wrong choice to stick to the reinforcements, and the wrong choice to stick to the mountains without water, and was finally completely annihilated.

It was Ming Yingzong Zhu Qizhen who listened to the words of the eunuch Wang Zhen and personally led hundreds of thousands of soldiers to the battle, but was defeated by the Wara army at Tumubao, and Zhu Qizhen of Ming Yingzong was finally captured.

The Ming Dynasty lost a lot of manpower and material resources, the economy regressed, the emperor also blackened, and began the road of reform.

It has caused a great impact, and the people have also lived a bad life, and at the same time, there is a lot of harm, and there are many policies.

As a result, the Ming army was wiped out, and the Ming Dynasty began to subvert, weaken, and gradually decline its national strength.

At that time, Zhu Qizhen had no combat experience, and there was a mutiny when he was commanding, which was the Tumubao Incident, and what I learned was that this was also a bad experience, and he was captured in the end, and the situation was not very good.

It was a particularly humiliating part of the history of the Ming Dynasty, which failed in the end, and Ming Yingzong was eventually captured. It is possible to learn about what is in it, as well as about the development of the war, and also about the characters in it, in which a lot of legends take place, which also causes different transformations.

It was something that happened in the Ming Dynasty, referring to the capture of Ming Yingzong, a very humiliating thing, which brought very big changes to the Ming Dynasty at that time and caused serious consequences.

The war took place in the Ming Dynasty and was triggered by the eunuch Wang Zhen, which eventually led to the capture of the emperor, which was a shameful thing. After being captured, he was treated with the courtesy of a thorn.

<> "After also inheriting the throne of the tile spur, why did the Tumubao change with the Ming Dynasty?"

At that time, a powerful Mongol tribe called Warat arose in the northern region of the Ming Dynasty. After also inheriting the throne of Waspur, friction began with the Ming Dynasty.

At that time, the Taishi of the Tile Thorn also launched a war against the Ming Dynasty on the grounds that the Ming court had reduced the reward and asked to marry the princess of the Ming Dynasty without permission, and the troops were divided into four routes, marching to the Ming Dynasty from Liaodong, Xuanfu, Datong, Ganzhou and other places at the same time.

And the Ming Dynasty emperor Zhu Qizhen, under the instigation of the eunuch Wang Zhen, decided to drive the expedition in person. Zhu Qizhen launched four large-scale northern expeditions in the third year of orthodoxy, the sixth year of orthodoxy, the ninth year of orthodoxy, and the fourteenth year of orthodoxy. In the Fourth Northern Expedition, Ming Yingzong was defeated and captured due to the failure of the intelligence department.

There are not only accidental abnormal factors, but also deeper reasons, among which abnormal factors include the emperor's blind personal conquest, the eunuch Wang Zhen's dictatorship, and command errors. The deep-seated reason is that this is the inevitable result of the conflict in the development of political and economic relations between Minglu and Yinmeng.

Wang Zhen, as a close confidant eunuch of Ming Yingzong, actually colluded with the tile spur to privately carry out arms **, let's just say it, there were only a dozen people who paid tribute, and then as the team got bigger and bigger, it began to lie, the original team of 2,000 people, it was said that we had as many as 3,000 people, and later Wang Zhen for his own prestige, determined to thoroughly check the number of people, cut the tribute price, and caused the tile spur to be dissatisfied. This is also one of the reasons why the tile spurs attacked the border of the Ming Dynasty.
