Haisheng Mingdi

Chapter 876 Will Be Out

"Civil officials are not greedy for money, and warriors are not afraid of death. Our Shaotian Dynasty's civil and military are all good, but when we were studying in the martial arts hall, His Majesty often told us that we must know how to advance and retreat in war, and a lion must fight a rabbit. Every attack must be planned and then acted, and it must be quick, precise and ruthless, and there must be no muddle in the slightest."

Zhu Cunwu, the Duke of Yongshou County, faced the officers of the Han Navy who repeatedly called for battle, while chewing yogurt dregs, he calmly comforted the generals.

"Your Majesty's orders are not accepted. Your Majesty is in Qinghai, thousands of miles away. We have to seize the opportunity to fight in the Western Regions. We don't have many troops in the Western Regions. We must win every attack, and we must not Carelessly underestimate the enemy."

"We have been on the grassland for so long, and we should all have seen wolves hunting on the grassland. When they find their prey, they will follow them patiently, and then look for opportunities. When the time is right, they will drive, divide, and finally kill the prey. Fence them individually and hunt them down."

Zhu Cunwu, the clan, now has more and more experience in commanding troops.

But he still didn't underestimate the enemy at all. The Ming army wins because of its good equipment and strong fighting spirit, but the disadvantage is that it is thousands of miles away from the mainland, and the strength that Ming can send over is limited, and it is even more difficult to provide timely reinforcements.Especially the firearms and gunpowder in their hands are not rich.

Especially the situation in the Western Regions is complicated. None of the khan kings are fuel-efficient lamps. They are like a pack of wolves. They are now following the head wolf, but once the head wolf is injured, they may jump out at any time to challenge the head wolf and snatch it. leader position.

Young generals are always superstitious about force and want to deal with their opponents directly on the battlefield, but experienced generals know how to follow the trend.

"Calm down, let Ozirtu, the leader of the Oirat alliance, join Turpan Khan Amulun, Huit Khan, and Altan Khan first."

"But Oziltu's performance is not good. He seems to be unable to beat his uncle, deputy Khan Kundu Lun Utaishi!"

"Not urgent."

Zhu Cunwu believed that it was still too early to counterattack, and they had to preserve their strength as much as possible. They had to first let Oirat fight among himself, and the fight became more and more fierce. Khalkha, Kazakhs, Turpan, Dawan, Heshuote, Durbert, Whitt and others should be involved.

When they fight into a mess and lose both sides, Daming will make a move, and then the benefits will be maximized.

"We and the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty are all saints and guards. There is no one who is greedy for life and fears death, but the opportunity for battle is precious, and we must seize the power at the right time of trial, and we cannot end prematurely."

"Then why wait? But Elder Zhu Ge personally went to Yanqi to oversee the battle, and sent a banner officer to pass on the military order with the banner."

"I have already received the military order of Jinglue Banner from Elder Zhu Ge, and I have also been ordered to send troops."

A general said helplessly, "General, you just sent some reconnaissance cavalry out to contact Oqiertu and other ministries."

"They are also the cavalry of my Burqinburghan Navy, aren't they?"

"It's another matter to send more or less."

"Don't worry, everyone. I will take care of everything. This is also the military power that His Majesty has granted me as the front-line commanding general. Unless Mr. Zhu Ge directly dismisses me on the spot, everyone here must obey my military order. Anyone who dares to violate it, Immediately dismiss him and imprison him!" These words were already somewhat murderous.

"We all listen to the general."

All the generals stood up and answered loudly.

"Disband, we all go back to train. Although we don't attack, there are enemies outside the city. We still can't relax. While defending the city, we have to take turns to train and rest. The batch of lead ingots sent by Anxi last time should be distributed more. Go down and give it to the soldiers, everyone has molds on hand, melt and cast more bullets in spare time, store more lead bullets, and be prepared.”

"Also, when you have free time, give more lessons to those Mongolian soldiers, teach them Chinese, and learn more Mongolian and Uighur languages."

After Zhao Laosan came down from the top of the Burqin Bastion, he rejected the proposal of the officers and companions to meet for a drink. It is wartime, even if he is not on duty, it is okay to have a drink or two, but he still prefers to stay awake, not to mention He also knew that those guys said they were drinking, but they were actually looking for fun and relaxation. Besides alcohol, there were also women in the tavern.

He came all the way to the gate of the fort, and the officers on duty were all familiar.

"Go to Tucheng again?"

"Well, go home and have a look, I haven't returned for several days."

"be careful."

The whistle chief smiled at him, and asked someone to open the door.

There were still Duerbots besieging the city outside the city, but after the previous attacks failed, the Duerberts retreated to the other side of the river to camp and face off across the river.

The Burqin Bastion and Tucheng Town are like twin stars. Both cities have troops stationed there, but the military defense of the Bastion is stronger.

After Duerbert's army withdrew to the other side, the communication between the two cities became smoother, but they had to go through multiple inspections and pass cards, and ordinary people were no longer allowed to leave the city.

The once bustling Burqin Tucheng, the gate of the city is always lined with teams entering and leaving the city. This is the most lively cargo distribution center in the Duerbert Khanate, but now it is very deserted. There are only dense weapons and fully armed and vigilant soldiers. .

One post at ten steps, one whistle at five steps.

There are cannons on the top of the city, and there are light cavalry patrolling outside the city.

From time to time, you can see the Han officers leading the team.

They are very familiar with Zhao Laosan. The Han Navy has thousands of people, but there are not many Han officers and instructors. The fellow villagers in the Central Plains are very familiar with each other.

"Don't envy mandarin ducks, don't envy immortals, just envy the third child!"

A platoon leader stepped forward with a smile, "Damn it, at this time, I can still go home to see my daughters-in-law every now and then. Not only can I eat milk made by my concubine in Mongolia, but also someone can warm the bed at night."

"No, it's only been a few months in this hellish place, and it's snowing. We can only hug the elders to keep warm at night, and the youngest and beautiful girls will sleep in their arms until dawn."

Several officers laughed, regretting that they hadn't seized the time to accept a Mongolian concubine, otherwise they wouldn't be alone. The rebellion of Junggar Chuhuer made Durbert Khan finally rebel, and they Even if some people have wives and concubines in the Mainland, they have not come in time to pick them up.

Some have already arrived halfway, and now they can only be temporarily placed in Jiayuguan or Hami, Dunhuang, Yanqi and other places. There is nothing else but worrying.

It's not like Zhao Laosan, who found such a beautiful little widow Duerbert, how nourishing these little days are.

"Third brother, be careful, now I don't know which Mongols are friends and which ones are enemies, so sleep with one eye open at night and don't let your neck be wiped in the middle of the night." One person laughed.

The third child didn't care too much. Tana was a female warrior who fought side by side with him. The two shared life and death and saved each other's lives. How about Wang, she and her family will not change anyway.

He believed in Tana.

After entering Tucheng, he went all the way back to his home in the east of the city. In a yard surrounded by a small dirt wall, he yelled outside the door, and Tana happily came over to open the door.

"I'm still worried that you won't come back today."

"After I was off duty, I went to the warehouse and got some good things back."

"What good stuff?"

"Here, cumin and pepper."

Because of Durbert Khan's lack of strength, the blockade of Burqin is not considered strict. In fact, as long as Zhu Cunwu wants to lead the Han Navy to protrude, there is no problem at all. Even if Zhu Cunwu wants to fight Heshuo Qi Khan outside the city, There is also a great chance to win, but Zhu Cunwu doesn't want to go out to fight.

But Heshuo Qihan retreated to the opposite bank to set up camp after attacking a few times, and there was no movement. He seemed to regret being lured by Chu Huer to rebel against the Ming Dynasty.

The two sides are in such a strange wall, and the Duerberts who besieged the city did not really surround it, but were stationed across a river.

The guards didn't take it too seriously, and stayed in the city with peace of mind. The cavalry even went out of the city to train from time to time, and the artillery fired a burst of cannons outside the city from time to time to practice their skills.

Everyone's well water does not violate the river water, as long as the Ming army does not go to the other side of the Burqin River, no one will stop them from going in other directions.

Even Tana's family lived in the Laosan Manor in the upper reaches of the Burqin River. Recently, they drove a flock of sheep to them, and sent them a lot of vegetables and cream.

"Brother went back yesterday. He was thinking about the cattle and sheep at home, and he had to dig potatoes. Recently, there are a lot of tribe soldiers here. He is afraid that someone will steal the livestock and potatoes." Tana told the third child that her elder brother drove a group of sheep a few days ago. Come, I didn't stay for a few days, but I went back.

When Durbert and Shuoqi Khan first raised their flags against the Ming Dynasty, they also ordered the mobilization of Durbert herdsmen. Tana's family also received the recruitment order, but they refused to be recruited and hid for a while.

Seeing that the situation has changed now, he returned to live in the manor of the third child, and even came to deliver the sheep.

"I heard that Sonomu Celing entered the bastion to pay a visit to Duke Zhu?" Tana asked.

Su Nuomu Cering is the son of He Shuo Qi Khan, he was also the admiral of the Han Navy, and even the governor of the Fuhai Dudu Mansion. Before He Shuo Qi Khan wanted to respond to Chu Huer’s anti-Ming, he also firmly opposed it. In the end, Shuoqi Khan tricked his son into putting him under house arrest, and even secretly ordered some Duerbert officers and soldiers of the Han Navy to rebel, trying to seize the two castles of Burqin.

Celing was able to come to Bastion to see the teacher Zhu Cunwu at this time, and it was obvious that things had changed.

"Heshuo Qihan is a man who forgets his life when he sees small gains, cherishes his life when he does great things, is bold and courageous, and has no plans. He doesn't even think that he can become the king of Khan, and even order Du Who are the various tribes of Albert relying on? Without the Ming Dynasty, Durbert would still be in a state of disunity, and could only be sent under the fence of Junggar and others, becoming a vassal of others.

He has been the king of the Khan for a few days, but he actually harbors resentment because the court let the Huite Ministry set up a separate khanate. As soon as Chu Hu'er provoked him, he immediately lost his mind. Such a person is really too muddy to support the wall Ah, the situation I am in now is also to blame. "Although the third child's position is not high, he was promoted from the eighth to the seventh because of his service in the female warrior battalion in the battle against Junggar.

Now he is the Yihui School from the seventh rank, the last level of the eighth school, but he is also a seventh-rank military officer after all, and the patch on his official robe is also a rhinoceros.

"Is Celing here to ask Khan to surrender on behalf of Heshuo Qi Khan?"

The third child smiled and said, "Then I don't know, it's a secret, but in my estimation, he definitely didn't come to ask for surrender. Heshuo Qihan has such poor eyesight that he can't always see the situation clearly. Now he thinks He has the upper hand, he must still want to bargain or something, can we get used to him? It’s not cool to stay there, anyway, Khalkha and other troops are coming soon, and we don’t need to take action by then, he will have to sit on the wax .”

"I'll kill a sheep for you. It's cold, and it's wasting fodder and losing fat." Tana didn't care too much about He Shuoqi's current plight. The man came back, so why not kill a sheep to feed him.

"Okay, let's make a mutton soup. I like to eat the mutton soup you stewed. The soup is delicious and the meat is delicious. This is the first snowfall, and it's time to eat mutton for warmth."

Tana went to slaughter the sheep, and the third child was watching and chatting, and the two of them talked with each other, just like an old couple for many years.

But Tana's way of killing sheep is still neat and clean.

The sheep no longer has to worry about the cold this winter, and the place it goes to will never have winter again.

"As soon as it snows, winter will come. Heshuo Qihan on the other side probably won't be able to stay for long. I guess they will leave soon."

"If he is smarter, he should withdraw quickly. It is better to send some cattle and sheep to make an apology, and then give the saint a letter of injustice. This may not be so bad. If he is not aware of current affairs, he will go further down the wrong road. The farther it is, the more it will be like this sheep, it will not be able to survive this winter."

In the evening, Tana stewed a pot of delicious mutton soup for the third child.

The next morning, the third child yawned, bid farewell to the ruddy Tana with dark circles under his eyes, and returned to the bastion to join the team.

In the afternoon, a small group of Han Haijun rode back to the city without stopping at night, and brought back some news.

Oqiertu, the leader of the Oirat alliance, joined forces with his son-in-law Galdan, and joined forces with 7000 people to fight against Chu Huer and his son near Tireketi in the southwest of Tacheng. As the leader of the battle, Oqiertu performed outstandingly. The 1-odd horses of Chu Huer and his son were beaten and retreated steadily, and more than 3000 people were captured.

Chu Hu'er and his son threw away their helmets and armor and fled in rout.

Oqiertu sent troops to chase after them. Galdan suggested that poor bandits should not pursue them. They should stabilize the results of the battle first, and then lift the siege of Tacheng, Wusu, Okhorisek, Bohoxi and other castles. He didn't listen to the words of the nine-year-old saint.

As a result, the Lute troops who were chasing all the way broke into the ambush circle of Kundu Lun Utaishi halfway. Thousands of troops were surrounded, and Chu Hu'er also gathered the defeated soldiers and turned around to attack.

After the two armies wiped out the striker who led the root, Kazakh Khan's son Touk also led a team to arrive. They joined forces, crossed the Gobi overnight, and suddenly appeared outside the camp of Oqiertu.

Oziltu, who was still asleep, was awakened by the enemy cavalry attacking the camp, and wanted to gather troops to resist, but the camp was already in chaos, and he fled overnight under the escort of his men, weak in recovery.

In order to cover him and Galdan from escaping, his subordinates tried their best to cover them, and countless people died in battle.

In this battle, the 5000 men of Oqiertu and the 2000 men of Galdan were almost wiped out. Galdan fled back to Bohuo Xibao, and Oqiertu even fled back to Yili in one go.

Chu Hu'er, Kundu Lun Utaish, and more than 1 Kazakh allied forces pursued all the way and directly captured Ili. The troops from Junggar, Kazakh, and Jianlut plundered herdsmen and monks and temples everywhere, and imposed taxes on them. Latino.

They even forced monks to join the army.

Oqiertu fled all the way across the Tianshan Mountains and ran to Aksu. He sent people to recruit more than 1 horses from various places, and then asked Zhu Dadian of Yanqi for help, hoping that the Ming army would send troops to help defend Aksu, and even help him regain Ili.

Chu Huer and Kundu Lun Utaishi did not follow them across the Tianshan Mountains to attack Aksu, but handed over the Ili River Valley to Kundu Lun Utaish after a wave of looting and expropriation in the Ili River Valley.

Kundu Lun Utaish also called himself Heshuote Khan, who was known as Ili, Aksu, Kashgar, and the Heshuote tribes in Qingkang Tibet, all under his command.

Then he left a few sons to guard in Ili, and he led his troops back to Junggar with Chu Hu'er to encircle Bohuoxi Fort.

Then he divided his troops and surrounded Tacheng.

The news was astonishing.

But Zhu Cunwu still seemed to be very calm, and he didn't even issue a mobilization order.

"hold on."

"Duke Yanchang of Bohuo Xibao is not in a hurry, why are we in a hurry? Besides, we are really in a hurry, Tacheng is closer to them."

Burqin, Bohuoxi, Tacheng, Tireketi, Alashankou, and Wusu, there are tens of thousands of Ming troops and vassals in this fort chain, but none of them have moved yet. As the northernmost Burr Jinbao, of course, is not in a hurry.

After the big defeat of Oqiertu and Galdan, he even wanted to open a bottle of Turpan wine and drink a glass, but he was afraid of the negative impact, so he endured it.

The third child didn't expect to go home and stay for one night, and the situation changed so much.

"This leader of Oziltu can't do it."

"Kar Erdan was so amazing by them, didn't he go back to Bohuoxibao like the same shit." Another said.

"Would Heshuo Qihan on the other side feel that the wind direction has changed and come to beat him up again?"

"Come here if you come. I'm just bored. We are guarding two castles. We have enough artillery, firearms, and fine food. When we come, it's just a gift. It just gives us some military merit."

The officers smiled and said that each of them was very relaxed. Anyway, the few times He Shuoqihan besieged before, it was purely to give them heads.

is talking.

Then the sound of the bell was heard, followed by the sound of the trumpet.

"Fuck, Cao Cao Cao Cao said, Heshuo Qihan is really reckless, dare to come again?"

"This old boy is really impressive."

Even Zhao Laosan couldn't help but exclaimed, "Yesterday Heshuo Qihan regretted following Chu Hu'er against the Ming Dynasty and sent his son Cering, who was under house arrest, to tell the Ming army that it was a misunderstanding, but when he heard about it today Chu Hu'er had won the battle, but she was in a hurry again.

"If you want me to say, since this guy wants to be beaten so much, why don't we help him? It's no fun to keep standing on the bastion and firing cannons. Why don't we open the city gate and go out to practice with them?"

The youngest looked at a group of school captains who were eagerly eager, then looked at the general's mansion where there was no movement, and yawned, "Come on, I'd better go back and catch up on sleep first, you can continue chatting, remember to call me when it's time for dinner." I say."
