1444 CE to 1455 CE

The Tumu Crisis, a frontier conflict between the Oirat Mongols and the Chinese Ming Dynasty, leads to the capture of the Zhengtong Emperor on September 8, 1449, largely due to the Chinese army's remarkably bad deployment.

The expedition is regarded as the dynasty’s greatest military debacle.
