Chapter 219
Cao Huachun was very upset, who dared to report this matter to the emperor without going through himself?
Fortunately, I got the exact news before being summoned by the emperor, otherwise today would be a joke, and he, the factory supervisor, would have a bad image of a corpse in front of the emperor.

Cao Huachun said cautiously: "Your Majesty, I can't catch Huang Guerzilla by sending Tiqi to Yichun Courtyard at this time, because he has never been in the Peony Pavilion of Yichun Courtyard..."

Chongzhen was furious, and said: "It's unreasonable. He actually knows how to hide. I sent Jinyiwei and Dongchang to search for me. I don't believe it. Where can he hide?"

Seeing that he had only spoken half of what he had said, Cao Huachun misunderstood the violent Sheng Tianzi, and quickly knelt down and kowtowed: "Huang Guerrilla has been wronged, Your Majesty, calm down, this old slave has thoroughly investigated Huang Guerrilla's abnormal behavior, and found that there is a reason for it. There is no whoring and sleeping, but thousands of miles away."

Chongzhen was stunned, and asked, "Thousands of miles away? Where did he go? Cao Banban, where did you start?"

"Huang Guerrilla actually rushed to Da'ankou quietly seven or eight days ago, and the 'Red Banner Army' troops should gather there to wait for his arrival."

The emperor couldn't help becoming anxious, and he asked: "Huang Han went to Da'ankou? What does he want to do? Isn't he going out of the customs to find bad luck for the Tartars?"

Daming has such a powerful general, at this time Cao Huachun felt honored, and he said firmly:

"Exactly, Huang Guerrilla personally told Fang Zhenghua, the admiral of the Imperial Horse Supervisor, and Li Ruolian, a thousand households of Jinyiwei, that the Tartars were slaves to tigers and followed Jiannu into the customs. I don't know how many good families in Ming Dynasty were destroyed, how much gold, silver, people, and animals were robbed. return to the north.

If I, Ming, let it go and do not retaliate, these vicious bandits will intensify in the future. Huang Guerrilla will go here to kill all the Tartars within two or three hundred miles northeast of Da'ankou. "

"Hiss!" The young emperor gasped, and suddenly felt blood rushing in his chest, and his nose was a little acidic.If those who robbed Daming returned and killed the people of Daming, the "Red Banner Army" would kill the entire tribe of Tartars and take revenge. Daming should retaliate severely.

Too relieved, too sour!The young emperor wished he could shout for Huang Han's decision, but he held back, he was today, and he had to put on a young and mature appearance.

Chongzhen's voice was a little out of tune due to his inner excitement, and he asked calmly: "Cao Banban, what do you think Huang Guerrilla's chances are?"

"Well, this old slave can't tell. The 'Red Banner Army' has too few troops after all. Huang Guerrilla's action is a military adventure."

"Alas! All the ministers misunderstood me. I don't know that the 'Red Banner Army' has too few troops. It has long been intentional to give more soldiers. But, alas! I regret it!"

"Your Majesty, it's useless to worry about things at this time. Do you want to issue an order to Governor Liu of Shuntian to send troops to meet Huang Guerrilla?"

"That's right, Wang Banban hastily drafted an order..."

The situation was urgent, and the emperor didn't have time to argue with the cabinet, so he directly issued a decree to Governor Shuntian, asking Liu Zhilun to do everything possible to reduce the losses of the "Red Banner Army", so that he could act cheaply.

The one who got the task of running errands was Lou Yun, a hundred households of Jinyiwei, and he rushed to Zunhua again with a general banner of Jinyiwei who was familiar with the road.

Ever since he followed the "Red Banner Army" in an ambush to build a slave, Lou Yun's fortunes have changed, and he has been promoted three times in a year. Hearing Li Ruolian, the superior officer, understand the advantages and disadvantages, and knowing that time is running out, he led his subordinates and changed horses and galloped away.

In the case that the post station on the way can change horses, although Lou Yun and his party can't run six hundred miles at an accelerated speed, they can run three hundred miles a day.

Huang Han repeatedly made amazing moves, the emperor thought he was intriguing, and asked Cao Huachun and Wang Chengen to report back in time as long as they got any news related to Huang Guerrilla, no matter how big or small, and Yichun Yuan would also send Dongchang Fanzi to investigate and try to find out. Discover the secret work of slavery.

On the fourth day of November in the third year of Chongzhen, it was the anniversary of Huang Han's mixed-wearing in Ming Dynasty. Huang Han, who walked alone in the snow in the padded armor, is here again.

Today is not what it used to be. The troops he assembled at Da'ankou are strong and strong, with 360 and [-] knights, half of whom have experienced the ambush in Yongping South where they won more with less.

There are 240 qualified infantry gunners, 200 gunmen, more than [-] infantrymen with four general flags, and more than [-] spearmen and sword shieldmen with two general flags each.

There are also four general banners of juvenile cadets, and four general banners of medical soldiers led by medical officers Liu Dashou and Guo Xiao. There are more than 1000 medical soldiers under one general banner. people.

The number of "Red Banner Army" assembled was as high as 400. Except for the [-] gunners whose shooting performance needs to be improved, there was left a general flagman each for infantry, spearmen, and sword shieldmen, led by Huang Yong, Yang Jian, and Huang Chunsheng. Garrisoned in "Tiger's Cave" city, these [-] troops are almost the entire strike force that the "Red Banner Army" can maneuver.

Because even two hundred young soldiers over the age of 14 were brought out, and most of the more than 500 years who stayed in the rear to study and train and work in the capital were half-old children who were still childish at the age of twelve or thirteen.

Although the number of "Red Banner Army" assembled in Da'ankou is small, and there are even fewer serious soldiers, their equipment is the king of this era.

All the senior officers and officers of the "Red Banner Army" were equipped with a combination of all-steel breastplates, as did most of the veterans. The armor of the remaining [-] cavalry was only stronger than Jiannu's equipment.

Sword and shield hand and spearman also have iron armor equipment, and infantry and bird musket hand are all equipped with iron armor, and all the officers and men who go out to battle have two sets of cotton armor equipment including military service.

In the cold weather, the dripping water turned into ice, and the soldiers of the "Red Banner Army", including laborers, wore two thick cotton armors on their bodies. These cotton armors were carefully sewn by women in the system. The protection is also quite warm.

The "Red Banner Army" attack team also has the small equipment of gloves. From now on, they will never get a piece of flesh glued off because they suddenly take extremely low-temperature iron with their hands.

These thousands of military service members were indeed voluntary followers. They fought for it many times, and finally developed into groups kneeling in front of the temporary headquarters of the "Red Banner Army".

When Huang Han left, the military was jointly decided by the leadership team formed by Hanzi, Song Pengfei, Yang Danian, Yang Guoen, Yuan Siming, Wang Zhanpeng, and Zhang Yang.

The euphemistic name is: Group of Seven.

They are the authority to make decisions on big and small matters when the chief general Huang Han is away. Seven people make decisions together.

During this period of time, the seven-member regiment led the "Red Banner Army" to continue training, and troops appeared at the pass of the Great Wall in Jizhen from time to time. Such actions really confused many civil and military generals of the Ming Dynasty, and made Jiannu's meticulous work commonplace.
