Emperor Kangxi sent me to marry

Chapter 214 Zhao Modo of Prologue

General Fei Yanggu of Fuyuan was full of guilt towards Dobu, almost ashamed to see him.

From Guihua City to Zhaomodo, nearly half of the horses that Tuxietu Khan's tribe gave him were squeezed out.

Kangxi was certain that the war would be won, and even ordered criminals who donated horses and camels in Zhili and other places to be punished lightly.All of a sudden, the price of large livestock on the market suddenly rose.

As for the fourth son-in-law, he didn't earn any money, so he picked the strong horses first and gave them to him.Fei Yanggu originally planned to take good care of it and return it after use.

Therefore, when he saw the fourth elder brother and Dobu walking together, he felt a little relieved.

If you meet alone, you can't avoid this topic.

Mingzhu escorted the army rations, but just hadn't left yet.So Sun Sike was added, and the five of them quickly held an emergency combat meeting on the bare Gobi Desert.

Right now the soldiers on the West Route are exhausted, Dobu thinks that if you want to win, you don't need to plan.

"I have 5000 people under my command, all of whom are elites from Mobei and the Eight Banners, separated from the Central Route Army. Where are the general's men?"

Fei Yanggu and Sun Sike looked at each other, and replied in a low voice:
"If you can still move, it's about [-]. If you rest for two days, maybe [-]."

Dobb was the opposite of them, and felt that this was a lot.

"Okay, then let's count as 5000 after joining forces. In Galdan's hand, there are [-] soldiers at full strength, and about [-] shotguns. I have been sending people to watch Tuonuo Mountain. They are sneaky and will leave in a while. I’ll be back in a while, and I’ll never leave the vicinity. Tuonuo Mountain’s terrain is too good, so I won’t be able to take it down, but I’m worried about the heavy casualties. I don’t know everyone..."

Even the awkward fourth elder brother nodded in agreement.

"Okay, now we have to think of a way to get Galdan to give up Tuonuo Mountain and come to Zhaomoduo. There is a suitable place about seven miles away from here. Surrounded by mountains on three sides, the mountains are full of trees, and only the north is the river. Are the cannons coming?"

Fei Yanggu was finally able to give a positive answer, speaking quickly.

"Three sky cannons, ten Shenwei cannons, and 79 sub-cannons. By the way, the Ministry of War has also cast eight of the new shells you mentioned. I am exhausted for these firearms. I am exhausted. Less horses."

In front of everyone, Dobu couldn't say anything, he just smiled and continued.

"That's one hundred cannons. I have to trouble the two generals and lead people to pull them up the mountain. The fourth elder brother and I will go to lure the enemy."

The remaining three immediately objected.

"If there is a mistake, how will the emperor explain it?"

"But, if we don't go, Galdan may not move."

Here's Dobb's plan.

"We pretended that Khan Ama was still there, but we just moved from the middle road to the west road. When we were meeting in Dolunnuoer, Khan Ama rewarded my department with a tent for the queen. I have asked someone to take it quickly and set it up on the mountain. .Galdan got the trick and charged up the mountain. When the artillery fires, we will win. The casualties are estimated to be very small."

Mingzhu sees things differently from Fei Yanggu and others.

In his opinion, this is the most economical way, and the emperor must be very satisfied.

The death compensation plan finalized by Kangxi himself: In addition to compensating the value of the family members, the guards can get a seventh-rank official title and an eighth-rank Xiaoqi.Those who have no sons shall support their wives until their death.

Every time a soldier dies, the treasury pays hundreds of taels of silver.The Ministry of Finance was already tight and couldn't bear the excessive consumption.

So the situation became three votes in favor and two votes against.The young and energetic fourth elder brother is unwilling to show the slightest timidity.

"When does Changsun Taiji plan to leave?"

"I have a team of personal soldiers, a total of 300 people, who can use muskets on the horse. Brother Si will look again to see if there are any Eight Banners soldiers who can do this. We can't bring too many people, pretend to go hunting. Can you tell Gar It’s best for Dan to do it. However, to prevent accidents, there must be no bad people among the people who are taken out. When there are all people, let’s go. The army is not rich.”

The fourth elder brother felt that in Duobu's words, there seemed to be a faint contempt for the Eight Banners soldiers.He felt dissatisfied, and he wanted to find 300 people to go with him, but he didn't expect that it really couldn't make up.

An experienced cavalryman explained patiently to him.

"It's not hard to find someone who can shoot a gun, but it's not easy to use it on a horse. Besides, horses are more precious than people. Timid horses will wilt when they hear gunshots. Those who are not afraid of shooting guns have to start with colts." Training. Fourth Master, let’s take it easy. I know the 300 members of Changsun Taijin, all of whom have been well-trained, and each of them has at least three good horses, we can’t compare.”

In desperation, the fourth elder brother ordered a hundred arrows that were extremely accurate, and after rectification, they set off together.

After half a day of rapid marching, Dobb suggested that the horses rest and the men eat something.The fourth elder brother was very wary, still worried about what happened a few days ago, and refused to accept the dry food that Dobu handed over.

"I have my own, let Changsun Taiji keep it."

"What's wrong with fourth brother, don't you like to call me brother-in-law?"

"Oh, after all, it's not done yet. After Fourth Sister leaves the Forbidden City, it won't be too late for me to change her address."

Although it's not very useful to talk fast, the fourth elder brother still feels very relieved.

Dobu looked at the fourth son of the emperor who was quite different from the memory of his previous life, and for some reason, he actually looked a little cute.

"Fourth brother, tell me, if I can't go back, what will your fourth sister, Khan Ama, do to her?"

Probably, lonely for life, guarding the door and widowed.

The fourth elder brother's thoughts were disturbed by this question, and he couldn't tell whether it was sadness or joy.

The two were silent.The night gradually deepened, the stream gurgled, and the horses' hoofs occasionally collided with each other, making some crisp sounds.

"Poor bone beside the Wuding River, who is still in the dream of a boudoir in spring. Fourth brother, you know this poem, right?"

"Naturally. Does Changsun Taiji still study Tang poetry?"

"No, I only know these two sentences. Your fourth sister taught me. Believe it or not, I used to be a reckless man who would not die in a war. She read this poem to me and begged me to at least Don’t be uncertain about life and death, but give her a whereabouts. From then on, I learned to write Chinese characters, read military books, and fight with resourcefulness. I have a wife, and so do they.”

Dobu looked at the guards who were eating in the distance, his eyes were extremely firm.

"I took them out of my wife, so I have to take them back. Useless sacrifices, not one person."

After a short break, 400 people set off again.The high-speed march continued until dawn.

Dobu's confidant, Ba Lezhong, was ordered to lead a few people to explore the way ahead, and when he noticed something strange, he came back quickly to report.

"Taiji, oh, no, my lord, there is a willow forest ahead, it looks like there is an ambush."

The fourth elder brother ordered people to send muskets over.

"Don't tell me, I really can't remember. After all, the grandson Taiji is only 21 years old, and he is already the king of Duoluo County. Looking at the whole Qing Dynasty, there are not many. Since Han Ama allows you to be the prince, it is more appropriate for me to be called the prince." .Taiji is the old name."

"I still prefer that my fourth brother calls me brother-in-law."

Dobb gave the order to go down, with the sound of his gun as a signal.No gunfire, no one is allowed to do anything.

The golden morning light shone brightly in his bright eyes.

"Come on, let's go hunting."

　The quoted poem comes from the four poems of Chen Taolong's Westward Journey in the Tang Dynasty.The poor bones beside the Wuding River are still the people in the spring girl's dream.
