Chapter 102: Business (Second Update, Asking for Support)

In recent days, the river beach on the north bank of the Yellow River has been full of people with sheepskin rafts there, not only local Mongolians, but also many banner people are also busy there, and the river beach is full of sheepskin rafts that have been made. The rafts stood on the riverbank, and most of the skins on the rafts were new, and these local and military tanners were there day and night to make them.

Although it is not complicated to tie a sheepskin raft, the raft is made by tying hard ash sticks with hemp rope to a square wooden frame, then tying several sticks horizontally, and tying the leather tires under the wooden strips one by one. Although the raft is easy to make, the raft rider who operates the raft can not be practiced in three or two days, although the water flow in the estuary is gentle, but in order to allow everyone to cross the river smoothly on the raft, they still picked out hundreds of rowing coats, and practiced rowing sheepskin rafts on this river.

Standing on the river beach sheepskin raft is very conspicuous, a wooden frame on a dozen full of air leather tires, the leather tire is made of whole sheepskin, all are not heavy, not to mention two people, that is, there the wood itself can be carried, as usual, he once again on the river to teach those Qing soldiers how to row a raft, rowing is not difficult, but it is not simple, a few days down, although those flag soldiers can not row a sheepskin raft when it is windy and rainy, but when the wind is calm, it can also pass.

"There, do you think the big guy can take people across the river now?"

Yue Le looked at the soldiers who were training on the river, turned his head and asked Na Mu, he was the most well-known raft guest in this area, so he was invited to be the head of the sect.

"Lord Belle, please rest assured, although they are only going to make a raft now, but when the wind is calm, there is no big problem in crossing the river, as long as they practice for a few more days......"

"There's no time!"

Yue Le shook his head, nine years ago, he was awarded the general of Xuanwei, garrisoned the city of naturalization, and invaded the Khalkha Tushetu Khan and Chechen Khan, and then the Khalkha surrendered to pay tribute, and he led the troops back to the court. So, he can also talk about the Mongols.

Abunai alone will definitely not have such courage, nine times out of ten Natu Shetu Khan and Chechen Khan are also involved, and even the Mongol army is moving south, if you don't leave, I'm afraid it will really not be in a hurry.

It was not only Yue Le who was worried about this matter, but also Shunzhi and the princes and ministers in the court, who had long nights and dreams, and they naturally understood this truth, and because of this, they made a decision almost immediately after learning from Yue Le that those raft men had been able to row the raft.

"Cross the river!"

Monti, is not a place that can be found for a long time, especially when Abnai is watching from the sidelines, although in the past few days, tens of thousands of soldiers have crossed to the other side of the Yellow River, but the brigade is still on the north bank, in the camp tent that stretches for dozens of miles on the north bank.

"Your Majesty, the mourning family is waiting for you on the other side."

On the beach of the Yellow River, although Borzigit's heart was inevitably a little nervous when she watched the sheepskin raft made of hundreds of leather tires rise and fall with the waves, she still cheered up the emperor in as calm a tone as possible, who made the emperor his son.

"Eniang, it's all Erchen's, it's not you, you have been wronged."

When he saw Eniang, who was obviously much older after a few months of running, Fulin said with some emotion.

"Your Majesty, as the king of a country, you can't do this, what you encounter today is nothing compared to what Emperor Taizu suffered when he was a hidden dragon? As long as the Great Qing Kingdom passes this level, it will definitely get better again! ”

There is still hope for the Great Qing Kingdom!

This is not only believed by Borzigit, but even most of those ordinary banner people believe that there is still hope for Zhongxing in the Qing Dynasty, just like the Ming Dynasty, they are not also salted fish turned over, in contrast, the Ming Dynasty did not have so many people as them!

On the riverbank that stretches for several miles, it seems to be very lively from early morning, with the help of hundreds of rafts, but only one day's work, tens of thousands of women and children have been sent to the other side, but this first batch of people to cross the river, not the women and children of the Si Qi people, most of them are the families of the noble ministers in the flag.

"Amma, my daughter is waiting for you on the other side."

Looking at her pale daughter, who was sitting on the sheepskin raft with a nervous face, Hesheri Kabula just grinned.

"Don't be afraid, don't you see that everyone passed away safely?"

Amma's comfort did not make the girl relax, but became more nervous, because the flag people do not know water, the water of the Yellow River seems to be calm, but when it comes to this raft, this raft always rises and falls with the waves, and people always can't help but worry about whether the raft will turn over.

"Little master, don't worry, you will be able to reach the south bank in a while, and you will definitely not ......"

Almost said that word Zhao Liu, almost didn't smoke his mouth, he will make a boat, the rules of this raft are no different from making a boat, rowing a raft is also very dangerous, and the same as sailing, are on the cusp of the knife edge to make a living, so there are a lot of particulars, such as not saying "broken", "sinking", "touching", "not", "broken" and other unlucky words, the first trip to hang red, set off cannons, burn incense, and pay tribute to the river god.

There are some words that can't be said anyway!

Nodding nervously, the girl looked towards the river beach to the north, and could see thousands of women waiting to cross the river, and they were still waiting, and as for when they could cross the river, they had to wait for the orders of their masters. Among the eight banners, the people with high status were naturally the first to cross the river, and when these people crossed the river, most of them could only stand there and wait, watching. There he waited for the orders of the leaders.

However, the order of crossing the river changed again at night, and during the day, it was all women and children, but at night, a group of soldiers was sent to the other side overnight, and no one knew why it was done. There seems to be no curiosity on the part of the people, and for these people on the north bank, the most anxious thing for them now is when they will be able to cross the south bank of the Yellow River.

The South Shore is their way out.

"Actually, you can also use a pontoon raft to get out of this river."

Hesheri Kabula thought to himself, but his thought was only a fleeting moment, and it was not easy to build a pontoon bridge, and if he was not careful, the bridge deck would break, and he might be buried in the Yellow River. Besides, the sheepskin raft was not necessarily as strong as a wooden boat with a pontoon.

"What's the matter, with these hundreds of rafts, there can always be more people......"

When Hesheri Kabula was talking to himself, he would always look at those sheepskin rafts with some concern, after all, those rafts were not like ordinary rafts, which were made through oil and other processes, because they were urgent, and there was no need to consider durability, so they were just shaved and exposed to the sun for two days, although those rafters said that they could be used for a few months, and they might not be able to be used for that long, I'm afraid only God knows.

With hundreds of sheepskin rafts of various sizes, tens of thousands of people are transported to the other side every day, but far more soldiers are sent to the south bank than women and children. While the people on the north bank were anxiously waiting to cross the river to the south bank, there were always people in the distance who crossed the Qing army's rangers from time to time, staring at the Qing troops who were crossing the river. Soon, the Qing army's movement to cross the river in the estuary area was sent by these spies to the grassland dozens of miles away.

"Humph......"

Abnay, who was gnawing on a leg of mutton, listened to the spies' report and just smiled coldly. Then he turned his attention to Wang Wenbai, a Han man who had come to his tent a month earlier, bringing not only great gifts, but also opportunities.

"Lord Wang, just like you said, there are almost all women left on the north shore now, Lord Wang, you really have no last resort!"

"The Great Khan praised, this is not a last resort, if it is not for the cooperation of Fujin, how can the Qing people be fooled?"

Fujin's cooperation?

Of course, Makata will not cooperate with him, although Makata will not cooperate, but Wang Wenbai has a way to let her take the initiative to "cooperate", as long as the news that needs her to know reaches her ears, she can naturally take the initiative to cooperate.

"That slut ......"

Scolding angrily, Abnai sneered.

"When Ben Khan wins, he will cut off that slut's head!"

In the past, because Makata was the aunt of the Qing Dynasty emperor, even if he was dissatisfied with him, Abunai could only swallow his anger, and now, without the support of the Qing Dynasty emperor, he naturally did not want to keep that woman anymore.

Wang Wenbai didn't care about Abunai's family affairs, and as for the life or death of Makata, it had nothing to do with him, and he came to Mongolia this time to contact the Mongols and weaken the strength of the Qing army as much as possible.

"Great Khan, now that tens of thousands of troops from all departments have been assembled in the Ordos grassland, the Great Khan can only sweep away the Qing people on the north bank, as for the Qing soldiers on the south bank, there are naturally other troops and horses to crusade, as for the spoils of war on the north bank, when the time comes, it will naturally be all in the hands of the Great Khan, and I will congratulate the king here."

Because this is Abnay's territory, he can naturally take advantage of it, at least he doesn't need to "gnaw hard bones" on the grass on the south bank like other Mongol tribes, but only needs to sweep the Qing people who have not yet crossed the river on the north bank, who makes him the master of this place.

"In this way, Ben Khan will thank Lord Wang!"

Abnei seemed to be thanking, but his tone was calm, and after saying this, he said again.

"Lord Wang, after this battle, Da Ming is really willing to open up trade with Mongolia and rebuild the Naturalization City?"

Abunai agreed to Wang Wenbai's troops, not only because of his hostility to the Qing Dynasty, but also because of Wang Wenbai's price that he could not refuse-resume trade, rebuild naturalization, and the Ming Dynasty will also set up a trading post in naturalization.

"Please rest assured that after this battle, my Ming will not only help the Great Khan rebuild the Naturalization City, but also help several other Great Khans build the city and set up a trading post in the city......"

Faced with Abunai's question, Wang Wenbai replied with a smile.

"I think that after this battle, the spoils of war obtained by the Great Khans may be our first business......"

Business, it's just business. It's just a business with the Mongols, but it's just a bit bloody.

"And where are those Han soldiers?"

Abnei's question made Wang Wenbai silent for a while, in fact, long before he came here, the king had already told him.

"Kill!"

Cold words without a trace of emotion came out of Zhu Mingzhong's mouth. This sentence did not even cause a stir in him.

"Kill them all, and leave not a single one."

Zhu Mingzhong emphasized in a deep voice.

"King, they are all Han Chinese."

Wang Wenbai tried to speak for those people. "King, we Han people have died too much. They can always come in handy when they are alive, whether it is Liaodong or overseas, they always need people. ”

Indeed, since the rebellion of the Liukou and then the entry of the Qing army, tens of millions of Han people in the world have died, and so many people have died, making the world now scarce.

Not to mention overseas development, even Liaodong does not have enough manpower to consolidate it. In this kind of sparse population. Why kill those people, why can't you keep them?

"There are few people!"

Taking a deep breath, Zhu Mingzhong said.

"That's what they killed."

Zhu Mingzhong's tone became more and more cold.

"How many people were there when the Manchu Qing Dynasty raised troops? If there were no Han army, they would have been able to get in? When they entered the customs, how many people were there? There was no Han army on the side to help the abuse. Can the Manchurians do the world? ”

"But the king, they are all forced to ......"

"As a last resort?"

With a sneer, Zhu Mingzhong asked rhetorically.

"If they have no choice, they can not kill their compatriots, they can kill the commander when the commander surrenders, even if they are poor, they can escape, but what kind of choice do they make, they are aiding and abetting, they are willing to be driven by foreign races, and they are even more ruthless than the Manchurians when they kill their own people."

Looking at Wang Wenbai coldly, Zhu Mingzhong continued.

"Why are they like this? is because they know that even if the army is defeated, even if the Ming Dynasty wins, it will only be punished at that time, and as for them, no one will investigate what they did at that time. That's why they will desperately loot and kill people, like Wu Sangui, they sometimes worry about their reputation, but these Han soldiers have never had such psychological pressure. Taking a deep breath, Zhu Mingzhong said.

"This time, we must not let them get their wish. Since they have become traitors, then they must have the consciousness of death. If they are allowed to survive, how to warn future generations. Only when they die, future generations will know that there is no luck in being a traitor, there is only a dead end. ”

The words of the great king once appeared in Wang Wenbai's mind, and looking at Abu Nai, Wang Wenbai said in as calm words as possible.

"Kill! None of them are left, and all of them are killed. ”

Since they are traitors, then this is their only choice!
