Chapter Seventy-Nine, Uliangha
The grassland peoples advocate force and love cold weapons, and their enthusiasm far exceeds that of the Central Plains peoples.
These guys, who have fought against heaven and earth, wolves, beasts, and natural disasters since childhood, have a desire for a good knife that Zhu Houzhao can't imagine.
Especially not stabbing!
He stroked the long knife obsessively: "Your Royal Highness, you don't like gold, it makes this master very embarrassed...... This master is willing to exchange 100 beautiful virgins, 50,000 cows, and 10,000 war horses with you, are you willing? β
In that way, not only will Harazi flow down, but if Zhu Houzhao dares to object, he will turn his face on the spot if he doesn't stab the cliff.
But Mandu Agu didn't like it a little.
He slid it in his hand, it was too light.
The weapon of this fierce man is a mace, which belongs to the terrifying level.
Zhu Houzhao immediately disliked him, and turned to ask for warmth: "For the friendship between the palace and the Taishi, what if it is gold and silver?" In other words, how much gold and silver can the Taishi exchange for? β
He didn't cut it out categorically, and said, "Please ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to make an offer!" β
Hiss!
Zhu Houzhao couldn't resist the lion's big mouth!
I scolded this guy in my heart.
Cunning, cunning!
The two sides have just reached a pleasant and friendly exchange, how can you let this palace raise a knife and slaughter it!
Okay, Zhu Houzhao said stupidly: "The palace was sold to Man Su'er Khan, but he only collected five million taels of silver and sold it to the Taishi......"
He didn't say anything yet, just hesitated slightly, and immediately said, "Okay! For the price! β
He didn't look serious, and for the first time showed an unquestionable attitude: "Two weapons, a total price of 10 million taels of silver...... This is a silver ticket from Daedeok Bank, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is invited to inspect it. β
Hiss!
This time, Zhu Houzhao was really surprised!
This dog thing, there is a silver ticket of the Ming Dynasty?
In an instant, he reacted.
A clever person has more than one plan!
As a guy who dares to make trouble with Dayan Khan, how can he not have a multi-handed arrangement?
When he didn't stab Dayan Khan completely, who could save his life?
There is only one, Da Ming!
The place that Dayan Khan can't enter, and it's also his last cave!
These silver bills are the capital that will not make a comeback.
And he didn't shy away from taking out the silver ticket, which expressed a deep meaning.
It's not that this Taishi can't cooperate with Daming!
Zhu Houzhao looked at it deeply and did not sting it, and said meaningfully: "Happy cooperation!" β
Then he smiled slightly, and said solemnly: "He meets on the battlefield every day, and the master must not show mercy to his subordinates!" β
Mandu Agu and Yibu stabbed the two of them, who were full of fire, and laughed.
At this time, they had a good impression of Zhu Houzhao.
Those who dare to say this merciless are real heroes!
Mandu Agu thumped his chest and said loudly: "Your Highness is really a hero, the next time you fight, this leader will not show mercy, please do the same!" β
Nor did he look at Mandu Agu with a strange face.
You bastard with a head full of muscles, can't you tell this the opposite?
How dare you make a big deal out of this!
Do you know that this handsome young man in front of you, who looks like Sven Wen and has no power to tie the chicken, can stab you to death with one finger!
ββββ subparagraphββββ
Next, it is the official closing day.
It took ten days for both sides to prepare.
On the eleventh day, the stumbling first trade began.
Fortunately, Zhu Houzhao deliberately spent an extra sum of money and invited thousands of horse farmers to help.
Otherwise, there is no need for Zhu Houzhao to use his brain, he can also think of the fate - the soldiers of Xuanfu who are glowing with green light will keep reporting to him.
"Your Highness, the other party gave five hundred lambs less......"
"Your Highness, hundreds of sheep have disappeared for no reason."
"Your Highness, the lamb has somehow turned into a sheepskin......"
"Your Highness, the lamb suddenly turned into a lamb bone, and the mutton is gone!"
This picture, even if Zhu Houzhao invited someone, almost became a reality.
The person who came to steal the sheep turned out to be Zhang Poyu.
Zhu Houzhao couldn't cry or laugh, so he grabbed Zhang Poyu and beat him severely.
After that, Zhu Houzhao promised Zhang Jun, who was smiling and watching the play: "Afterwards, the palace will send 20,000 sheep to the soldiers of Xuanfu and let everyone open meat!" β
Well, the green light in Zhang Jun's eyes finally went out.
So, the inexplicable thing immediately disappeared.
It lasted until the last trading day, and finally something went wrong.
A sweaty scout, Pegasus rushed to report: "Report to the general, a large army of the enemy has appeared fifty miles away, and we have fought with the enemy scout, and found that it is the ...... of Uliangha."
Zhu Houzhao was awe-inspiring in his heart.
How did Uliangha come?
Soon, the second scout brought the exact news.
The Wuliangha of the western expedition to the east Chagatai and Wara, tens of thousands of horsemen, with the aftermath of the great victory, came to Xuanfu overwhelmingly.
There were 100,000 slaves alone.
The scout reported: "Tell the general, Wuliang Haxi has returned, and on the way back, he saw a change in Xuanfu, so he came here temporarily!" β
Zhu Houzhao and Zhang Jun glanced at each other, and they all breathed a sigh of relief.
The chances of a fight are not great.
The newly acquired slaves of the Tatars had to be tamed, and the long-conquering armies needed to rest.
Moreover, it was only Uliangha who came.
Dayan Khan's world-famous cavalry, his faithful hound Chahar, and his vulture Khalkha did not come.
Of course, you can't be careless!
Zhang Jun immediately issued an order: "Increase the troops of Xinhekou Fort and Xinkou Fort, notify the Dining Room Fort and Ximalin Fort, and be ready for reinforcements at any time!" β
Bai Yu, the deputy commander-in-chief stationed in Wanquan County, also heard the news.
He personally led 20,000 border troops, some of them to Xinkou, and some to Xinhekou.
Together with Mu Rong, Li Ji, Wang Zhen and other important generals, they also began to mobilize.
Zhu Houzhao and Yi Bu were not stingy, and they stopped trading together.
There are still 20,000 ploughing cattle and 30,000 sheep that have not been delivered, and Zhu Houzhao has also 10,000 pairs of fetal pills that have not been sold.
At this point, everyone doesn't care!
The strange thing is that the scene formed a three-way confrontation.
Yibu and Mandu Agu formed one side, and it was also the weakest one.
Uliangha is on the other side.
Daming is the home side.
After two days, with the reinforcements of Tumut Baiyinhan, Yibu and Mandu Agu took the lead in quietly retreating.
Only Da Ming and Wu Liangha were left, and the armies of the two sides confronted each other, and the momentum was dignified.
But the standoff didn't last long.
On the seventh day, Uliangha withdrew.
The reason for the withdrawal of the army was that the heavy snow came.
On the night of the sixth day, the heavens and the earth were already white.
The weather cooled down suddenly.
Heavy snow!
Bigger and bigger!
By the seventh day, the snow had reached a thickness of two feet.
But Zhu Houzhao was not happy.
The sudden heavy snow not only drove away Uliangha, who occasionally wanted to reap the benefits, but also froze his cattle and sheep to death.
According to a rough count, 3,000 cattle have frozen to death and 9,000 sheep have frozen.
At this time, Yu Linwei had been turned into a cowherd by Zhu Houzhao.
It took a lot of effort to complete this unprecedented livestock migration.
But back in Beijing, Zhu Houzhao's mood is even worse!
From the briefing alone, Zhu Houzhao can see how serious this snow disaster is.
Jiangsu's political envoy reported: "Tens of thousands of people and animals freeze to death, Taihu Lake is frozen, and it is feasible for people to ride." β
In Anji, Zhejiang, more than 100 people froze to death, and frost and snow damaged seedlings; Cangzhou, Hebei, countless people and animals have frozen to death; In Dezhou, Shandong, people and animals froze to death, and fish in rivers and streams froze to death.
Jiangxi, Poyang Lake is icy, and pedestrians have been walking on the ice for more than ten days......
Even the Beijing Division, Wu Qing at the Great Dynasty also played: Heavy snow, the sky is very cold, and the ground ice is like a mirror; The walker cannot be established, and the soldier cannot be executed.
