Chapter 984 The Allied Forces Aiming To Make Money

Tumen Khan’s losses in the Battle of Monan were really too great. In addition, he attacked Tieling again. came out, but the number of troops sent by the Chahar Department is not even as large as that of the Chaohua Department.

This time when they went south to southern Liaoning, the Chahar Department sent 1 troops, and the Chaohua Department originally planned to send [-] troops. Later, in order to make up a round number, it was increased to [-]. The two sides have a total of [-] cavalry. It is a good time to go to southern Liaoning to make a fortune, and to lay a good foundation for this winter that has suffered heavy losses this year.

Of course, the heavy loss mainly refers to the Chahar department. The Huahua department has no losses, and not only has no loss, but also made a small profit-Dong Huhu, who is closer to the Huahua department, was beaten by Li Chengliang. When it was on the verge of collapse, many people fled to the Huahua Department, which was "born from the same root", so in fact, the strength of the Huahua Department has been strengthened by a blessing in disguise after the Monan War this year.

However, this kind of strengthening is a little flawed, that is, most of these fleeing people do not have much property left, and they basically escaped lightly. Apart from the horses under their crotches, there are at most insignificant softness, and a little Just the clothes you carry with you.

In other words, they had no cattle and sheep, and no winter rations.

As the current owner of these people, Chaohua is obliged to find a way for this.

Originally, Chaohua planned to "distribute internally". After all, Li Chengliang seemed to be in full swing. Otherwise, why can even Chahanhot be barely regained, but the crucial city of Daning is still in the hands of Qi Jiguang?

Although I feel sorry for the cattle and sheep, there is nothing I can do about it. To paraphrase a famous saying of later generations that Chaohua doesn't know, this is called "so-and-so labor pains".So-and-so, here is not "transformation", but should mean "before development".As long as he survives the wave in front of him, the population of his fried flower department will increase greatly, can he still not rise?
In the past, he was only one of the three guards of Duoyan, even the weakest one, otherwise he would not have been driven to Liaohe Hetao, a dangerous area sandwiched between Liaoxi and Liaodong.

However, he is very likely to become the only owner of Duoyan Sanwei in the future. After all, Dong Huhu is dead, and Chang Ang has lost the city and land, fearing the punishment of Tumen Khan, so he has gone all the way to join Tumote.

Just when Chaohua was in pain and joy, Tumen Dahan came and brought an excellent news-inviting him to send troops to plunder southern Liaoning together!
In the matter of plundering southern Liaoning, he had already accompanied Tumen Khan once in the sixth year of Wanli. How should I say that time, it was good or bad, but the benefits were still a little bit more-although he lost more than 300 yuan The cavalry, but took back a large amount of food and cloth, as well as more than 700 Han Chinese men and women.

The food and cloth made him spend a rare and fat year for the flower-stirring department, and the strong men and women kept some of it for themselves, and the rest were rewarded to the meritorious soldiers, which also increased his prestige in the tribe.

This time, Tumen Dahan invited him to rob South Liaoning again. Of course, he was very happy to fry flowers. The only thing he was worried about was Li Chengliang's reaction. After all, the last time he went to South Liaoning, although the overall situation went well, he was caught by Li Chengliang in the end. The tail gave him a good beating, and he still remembered the pain.

But Tumen Khan quickly convinced him, to be precise, it was the young man beside Tumen Khan who convinced him.This beloved son named Burihatu told Chaohua about Li Chengliang's movements first, and it already made Chaohua's heart flutter-since Li Chengliang went to drill the mountains and forests to fight Gule Village, he will be back in a while Not coming.

That’s not enough, Burihatu gave him an analysis of why Li Chengliang did what he did while the iron was hot, and when Chaohua heard it, he was delighted—Ming people are really out of their minds, especially those civil servants who are stupid when they read books. Letting such a powerful person like Li Chengliang not be used well, he actually got in trouble with him, forcing him to show his flaws and let himself wait for someone to go to southern Liaoning to rob him, forcing that guy named Gao Yushi.

However, Chaohua was used to being cautious, and suddenly thought that the high-practical person had won the Monan War after all, and he probably had a few tricks under his hands. If he went to his territory to play wild, would it be possible to steal chickens and lose money?

After all, Brihatu is a rare wise man among the Mongolians. He could see Chaohua's worries at a glance, and he said calmly, "Is Chaohua Taiji worried about Gao Yushi?"

Chao Hua was taken aback: "How do you know?"

It's all written on your mother's face, how can I not know?
Brihatu was contemptuous in his heart, but he had an inscrutable expression on his face. He didn't answer this, but said indifferently: "There is nothing terrible about Gao Shishi itself. The reason why Tumot's battle allowed him to occupy It’s a little cheap, not because of how powerful he or the Ming army is, but because Han Naji’s Tumote West Post is extremely powerful, and Tuotuo is really a hero—you know it, Tumo Tewei Zhen has traveled thousands of miles south of the desert, from Jizhou to Qinghai, its strength is extraordinary."

When he said that, Chao Hua really believed it.After all, Tumed is really strong. During the period of Alda Khan, Tumed not only suppressed the population of trillions of Ming Dynasty for decades, but also forced the Mongolian Khan to move eastward to Chahar. Although Alda Khan is dead now, But he just died just now. It's impossible for Tumed to decline all of a sudden, right?
Therefore, Chaohua felt that Burihatu was not bragging for Tumed. The key factor in this battle, in the final analysis, was that Tumed himself was too strong, not that the Ming army was strong—what the hell was the Ming army strong?
For example, in Liaodong, if there were no Li Chengliang's [-] family members, let alone Tumen sweating profusely, even if he dared to go to Liaodong every day to grab left and right, it would not be impossible to even occupy one or two of his cities!
Thinking about it this way, Chaohua's spirit suddenly came up - not only was Li Chengliang not there, but it seemed that he was not there on purpose, that is to say, Li Chengliang would definitely not come to save Liaonan this time when he attacked Liaonan!
Well, even if he has to come to clean up the mess sooner or later, it's just the mess after all, isn't it?As long as Lao Tzu ran away after grabbing it, Li Chengliang would definitely "be too far behind to catch up."

Then what are you afraid of?Hurry up and grab it!If such an opportunity is missed, how long will it take for me to be the Lord of Flowers?At that time, maybe Tumen Dahan will have to change the system and change the "five rulings" into six rulings!
Chaohua Taiji was very enthusiastic, and took the initiative to say: "Since the Great Khan suffered a little loss in Monan before, the number of troops sent this time is slightly less than usual, so I will serve one or two more cavalry here, and add another two thousand cavalry, for a total of twelve thousand , to collect enough [-] iron cavalry for the Great Khan, and go south to Liaodong to make a fortune... No, what does the Great Khan think when he goes south to Liaodong to attack the Ming Kingdom?"

Although everyone went there to make a fortune, Tumen naturally didn't want to admit it, so they pretended not to hear the word "facai" clearly, nodded and said: "The Mongolian state has a loyal minister like Chaohua Taiji, it is really Genghis Khan and Ben Khan is very pleased with Dayan Khan's protection... Just follow what Chaohua Taiji said, and when the success is complete, this harvest will be shared equally between the noble department and the Chahar department."

The Chahar Department sent 1 troops, and the Huahua Department sent [-] troops, but the result was "equal harvest". It is of course very unfair in theory, but there has never been absolute fairness in the world. Tumen belong to all Mongolia Khan, although the Chahar Department suffered a lot of losses this time, but the lean camels are bigger than the horses, Chaohua really dare not ask for the distribution of spoils according to the number of troops sent this time, Tumen Giving him an equal score is already a very face-saving gesture.

Therefore, Chaohua immediately agreed, turned around and mobilized his troops, and followed the eight thousand cavalry led by Tumen Khan to the south.

On August [-]th, the Chahar and Duoyan coalition forces crossed the Liaohe River tributary to the south, approaching the Sanchakou area of ​​the Liaohe River. The forts on the Sancha River threatened by their troops, such as Changning Fort, Dongsheng Fort, and Dongchang Fort , Xining Fort, Pingshantai Fort, etc. all became nervous at once.

At this time, only thirteen days have passed since Zhang Wanbang took up the new position of guarding Dongchang Castle!
