Chapter 981: Tumen's Military Advisor

Gao Pragmatic's plan was good, and Ma Dong's analysis was basically to the point, but what neither of them expected was...the two crows were too accurate.

Since Li Chengliang brought most of the main force to Gulezhai, the most northeastern part of Liaodong, to find troubles with Atai and Ahai, and the remaining half of the main force stayed in western Liaoning, so that the external deterrent force temporarily dropped sharply, so the Liaohe Hetao area appeared. Some changes.

The matter first originated in Tumen, to be precise, it was Brihatu who first discovered this.

The time is pushed back to half a month ago.On this day, Burihatu received a message that Li Chengliang had taken away [-] family members in his expedition to Gule Village, leaving [-] family members in Guangning to guard western Liaoning.

At that time, Qin Deyi, the deputy commander of Liaodong, was a general of Jinyi before guarding Liaoyang. He guarded Liaoxi for many years, but he only went to the east of Liaohe for the first time in April this year. More than 3 soldiers from the guard station were deployed to help him in this expedition, so the troops east of the Liaohe River were not sufficient.

Burihatu's eyes brightened, and he immediately judged that if Liaonan was threatened at this time, Qin Deyi would not dare to send troops to help, and would most likely choose to stick to the sidelines.

In other words, with Li Chengliang taking away the main force, Liaodong and Liaoxi have no ability to send troops now, and at best they can only stick to their jurisdiction and wait and see the situation.

Here's a great opportunity!
Brihatu hurried to Tumen Khan's sweat tent, informed the Great Khan of All Mongolia, and persuaded him to dispatch troops immediately, and at the same time invited Chaohua, who was entrenched in the Hetao area of ​​Liaohe River, to go south together.

When Tumen Da Khan heard Buri Hatu's intentions, his eyes lit up at first, but then he was a little frustrated, and sighed: "Bri Hatu, your idea is very good, Ben Khan also wants to go to southern Liaoning to find That boy Gao Wushi took revenge, but you have been in the Khan Court recently and know the current situation of the Chahar Department..."

Brihatu said loudly, "Great Khan, I know that the Chahar Department suffered a lot before, but now it's autumn, and it's the last chance to send troops this year."

Tumen said with a wry smile: "Of course this Khan knows, but so what? After the First Battle of Tumet, the Chahar Department was so war-weary. If they didn't rest and recuperate, who would want to go out with this Khan? Bu Ri Hatu, the sons and daughters are all tired, and they need at least one winter's rest to regain their vitality."

Brihatu raised his eyebrows thickly: "Damn Khan, morale is built, not cultivated. Only one victory after another can gather morale. If it's just peace of mind... Excuse me, my sons and daughters It will only become more and more unwilling to fight."

Tumen still just sighed: "But, what did you ask Ben Khan to go to the expedition? Leaving aside morale, I lost so many cattle and sheep this time when I went to Tumed, how many cattle and sheep will be recruited to accompany the army when I conquer southern Liaoning now?" Okay? Do you want Ben Khan to force the collection, and then freeze to death and starve to death countless followers this winter?"

Brihatu is now Tumen Khan's number one confidant, and to some extent he is working as a "military adviser". Of course, he knows that Tumen's words are by no means aimless, and the previous losses of the Chahar Department have already hurt their vitality. , even if there is no military action this winter, it will be the most difficult winter in these years. If you want to go to southern Liaoning...

Brihatu turned around in annoyance, and said in his mouth: "Khan's worries are not unreasonable, but this opportunity is too rare right now. In the words of the Han people, after passing this village, there is no such shop. gone."

Tumen said nonchalantly: "As long as the Han people still live in the city, we will always be able to take the initiative. When our strength recovers in the future, shouldn't we let me come and go in the thousands of miles of the Ming Kingdom?"

"No." Brihatu shook his head and said, "This time the situation is one and the same, and it may not happen again in the future."

"Oh?" Tumen turned serious and asked, "Why?"

Burihatu thought about it and said: "This time, Liaoxi and Liaodong are the two wings of Liaonan. They are both powerful. In the past, they have always been the two hands that cover Liaonan. It is as solid as a rock, and it is impossible for Li Chengliang to stay in Liaodong for a long time on this point."

"Since it is clear, what is he doing with these two wings?" Tumen Khan frowned.

Brihatu thought about it and said, "There are two possibilities."

"These two kinds?" Tumen asked.

"First, Li Chengliang judged that Mongolia had suffered a lot before, and I am afraid that this year we will have to deal with it with all our strength to survive the winter, so no matter how empty southern Liaoning is, we will not take the opportunity to send troops."

After Tumen listened, he nodded slightly: "Although Ben Khan wishes to cut Li Chengliang into pieces, I have to say that Li Chengliang should have such judgment."

"But that's just one, there's another." Brihatu said with piercing eyes: "The second is that Li Chengliang deliberately exposed his flaws and lured us to fight or plunder southern Liaoning."

Tumen's eyes flashed brightly: "He wants to encircle Ben Khan?"

"No, no, he is helping Da Khan." Brihatu snorted.

Tumen was stunned when he heard this, and said in disbelief: "He helped Ben Khan? Are you kidding me? This fellow Li Chengliang and Ben Khan's hatred is absolutely irreconcilable. Not long ago, Ben Khan was still peeing on his ancestral grave." , Is he crazy to help Ben Khan?"

Bu Rihatu chuckled, and said: "At this time and at that time, the original Li Chengliang may have wished to take the head of the Great Khan as soon as possible, so that he could change his Liujue into a Speicher, but now... the situation is serious. It’s different. The minister judged that Li Chengliang now hopes that the Khan can recover his strength as soon as possible, and even more that the Khan can loot all of southern Liaoning, and even better...break through Gaizhou and kill Gao Yushi!"

Tumen Khan was stunned for a long while before he said with a blank face: "Li Chengliang hoped that Ben Khan would kill Gao Yushi? Why? Wasn't it because of Gao Yushi that his father and son got credit for their achievements? Ben Khan killed Gao Yushi What good will it do him? Also, didn’t you say before that Gao Yushi’s visit to Liaodong should be a harbinger of the Ming court launching an all-out offensive against Ben Khan? That is to say, as long as Gao Yushi is still in Liaodong, it means that Ting wants to mobilize troops in Liaodong, so Li Chengliang has a chance to gain the greatest military exploits of the Ming border commander, why did he kill Gao Yushi?"

Brihatu nodded and said: "According to the original speculation, Li Chengliang should take the initiative to approach Gao Yushi. In this case, as long as Gao Yushi, the most trusted civil servant of the Ming Emperor, recommends Li Chengliang as the main force in the next war, then Li Chengliang will indeed have the most Good prospect..."

"With Li Chengliang's intelligence, didn't he approach Gao Yushi?" Tumen Khan asked in surprise.

Burihatu laughed darkly: "Of course he went, and he is almost 60 years old and calls Gao Yushi a brother... It's a pity that Gao Liusong doesn't seem to sell Li Chengliang's face."

"Oh? What do you say?"

Buri Hatu sneered: "After Gao Wushi took office, the first thing he did was to lock up the Commander of the Fuzhou Guard—Li Chengliang's nephew... Li Rugui!"

Tumen Khan suddenly sat up straight.
