As soon as they heard this, the generals of the non-three battalions in the hall, including Wu Sangui, were all overjoyed.

For them, whether to be a border army or a general of the Beijing camp is completely a matter that can be chosen with their feet. Just look at the equipment of the three battalions of soldiers led by the emperor this time, and it is not at the same level as the border army at all.

Not to mention anything else, just life-saving armor, there are still many mandarin duck armor in the border army, that is, cotton armor, although the protection of firearms is better, but the protection of knives, guns and arrows is much worse. And the soldiers of the three major battalions, leather armor and iron armor abound, and even the most ordinary soldiers have them.

Is it red-eyed? Of course the eyes are red!

Not to mention that the treatment of the soldiers of the Beijing camp is also better than that of the soldiers of the border army. And under the emperor's nose, there are more opportunities for the emperor to remember himself. Moreover, it is impossible for the military exploits made to be crowded out in places and the like.

Anyway, there are a lot of benefits, if you don't want to be a soldier in Beijing, you are not a good soldier of the Ming Dynasty, this sentence is absolutely true!

As a result, a powerful unison chant rang out in the lobby: "The last will obey!" ”

Emperor Chongzhen glanced at them and could feel that after the news came out, the morale was significantly higher. While feeling satisfied, he said solemnly: "This battle is not expected to end in a short period of time, and all armies must be aware of it and be prepared at all times." I will sit in Yulin, if I encounter a fighter, as soon as the will arrives, I must act immediately, and I must not slack off, and those who delay the fighter will be killed! ”

There is no child's play in the military, and military law is like a mountain, and it is much more serious than if a civilian official makes a mistake, he may reduce his salary, demote or something. Once a mistake is made, it is often the result of killing the head.

Even when training on weekdays, such as Qi Jiguang's training, there are many military laws that have been established.

Therefore, for what Emperor Chongzhen said, the generals in the army did not feel inappropriate, but hugged their fists one after another, saying that they would never dare to slack off and disgusted with fighters.

After that, Emperor Chongzhen rested for two days, and then led the army westward to Yansui to sit in town. At the same time, what he said to the generals of Datong also spread in Qin and Jin.

"What, what did the emperor really say, have a chance to be selected for the Beijing camp?"

"Of course, the Governor's Palace proclamation has been issued, and there can be fakes. But the premise is that you have to make more contributions than others in this battle. ”

"That's true. In the border towns of Qin and Jin, there are not 800,000 border troops, at least 600,000, right? How many people can Jingying want? At most, 100,000, if you can't do it, it's only 70,000 or 80,000. It seems that it is still difficult! ”

"But no, from the border army, who doesn't want to go to Jingying? I don't have to think about it so much, just think about it in this battle! ”

“……”

Among all the soldiers in the important town of the nine sides, similar discussions were everywhere, and the Ming soldiers were excited at the same time, but also expressed their opinions on the battle in front of them. Many people even reported their ideas, hoping that if they could give some credit in terms of advice, they might be able to enter the Beijing camp more than others.

However, the vast majority of the Ming soldiers, including those officers, were a little dumbfounded when they discussed with each other in private, just like the Datong Mansion.

"How should this battle be fought? I can't seem to fight! ”

"That's right, the emperor is on a personal expedition, and the Jianyu on the grassland will definitely get the news, and it is impossible for them to enter the customs again, right?"

"Why didn't the emperor come over secretly like last time, and then lure the Tartars outside the pass into the pass, and then ambush and destroy them!"

"Do you think Jianyu is comparable to those fools of the Tumut Ministry? That slave chieftain is called Zierharang, I heard that among the many leaders of Liaodong, he can be regarded as a wise general, belonging to the kind of brave and resourceful, and it is very difficult to deal with. With the lesson of last time, I will definitely be very cautious, how can I be ambushed again! ”

"That's right, and there are tens of thousands of soldiers, and their elite is not comparable to the Tumut Division. If so many people are put into the pass, maybe people don't drill into the ambush circle, but burn and loot everywhere, and the pass can't stand it! ”

"What then? The vast grassland, as far as the eye can see, can only rely on strength to fight hard? However, we don't have so many cavalry in the Ming Dynasty, how can we fight? ”

"That is, even if we have enough cavalry in the Ming Dynasty, if the Jianyu on the grassland knows that they can't be defeated and withdraws immediately, we can only stare dryly, right?"

“……”

The soldiers of the Ming army in Qin and Jin were making preparations for war, but they shook their heads and sighed. In their opinion, this battle is very difficult to fight. Otherwise, the Central Plains Dynasty would not regard the enemy on the grassland as a serious problem, but it has not been able to get rid of it.

In the end, all the Ming soldiers, including those generals and governors and governors in various places, all pinned their hopes on the emperor's wisdom and martial arts, and it was time to have a countermeasure to deal with the enemy on the grassland.

They actually didn't know that Emperor Chongzhen also had no good way at this time. However, he did not panic, because his "ace agent" had already arrived in Naturalization City. If you can learn the specific information of the enemy, you can take targeted action, and there is a way!

…………

Naturalization City, that is, the old city of Hohhot in later generations. The majestic and undulating Yinshan Mountains in the north can lead to the rich grasslands in the north; It is bordered by the rolling Yellow River in the south, and faces the Ordos Plateau across the river; the rolling Manhan Mountains in the east; The west is the gateway to Ganning in the west. In the sixth year of Longqing in the Ming Dynasty, Altan Khan, that is, Altan Khan summoned skilled craftsmen of all ethnic groups to imitate the capital of the Yuan Dynasty and built, and later the Ming Dynasty gave the name of the naturalized city.

Originally, there were no towns on the steppe, and Altan Khan built the first one. This is so because the land is fertile, the terrain is flat, and irrigation is convenient. It is not only a good place for grazing, but also a good place to cultivate and farm. In this way, the Mongols can supplement themselves by farming in addition to grazing. Otherwise, the tribes of the steppe rely only on grazing, which is more limited by God than the farming people. Often a plague of livestock can starve a tribe to death.

At the beginning, after Lin Dan Khan fled westward, he also took a fancy to this place, and occupied this place after defeating the Tumut Department. However, in the fifth year of Chongzhen, Huang Taiji personally led the army westward, drove away Lin Dan Khan, and set fire to the city of Guihua, because Jianyu himself was too far away from here to allow the city to exist.

Today's Naturalization City, although it has been rebuilt by the Tumut Department, has not been restored to its original state, but it has the appearance of a town, and the leaders here do not need to live in yurts, they can live in this Naturalization City.

In the past, the Ming army had captured this place, but at the behest of Emperor Chongzhen, it was kept and continued to be raised. After the slave chieftain Zilharang led the army, he naturally occupied this place as their base camp. It's not that Liaodong Jianyu is not a grassland tribe and can't get used to living in yurts, but the geographical location here is very good.

When Ying Ordai hurried here, he happened to encounter the retreat of the armies of the grassland tribes from the border pass of the Ming Kingdom. The Mongol tribes and the Azig tribes who returned from Datong and Yansui were the first to return to Guihua City. And Zilharang came back a little far from Ningxia, so Yingordai was just in time to welcome him back.

In the previous time, there had already been fast horses reporting the battle situation on Zilharang's side, so all the Azig side knew that Zilharang had won a big battle on the western side of the Ming Kingdom.

Looking at the end of the grassland, there was a trail of the army probing the horses, and then the shadow of the army was seen. Suddenly, all the Mongolian tribal leaders and Jianyu leaders who were waiting were in high spirits and immediately became excited.

"Prince Zheng is back, look, it's Prince Zheng back!"

"It's still Prince Zheng who is powerful, just as soon as he made a move, he not only destroyed the Ningxia general army of the Ming Kingdom, but also robbed a lot of things, it's really amazing!"

"That's not it, otherwise, the Qing Emperor wouldn't have named him a prince!"

“……”

Hearing that the leaders of those Mongolian tribes were in Kwazil Harang, the leader Azig had a cold face, and his original excitement was reduced a lot.

Obviously, in this battle, he had the merit of making plans, as well as the credit of containing the Ming army and attracting the attention of the Ming army, but the result was good, everyone did not pay attention to his existence, and they all went to Quazier Harang. Are they blind?

But even so, Azig was not superficial enough to reprimand the Mongols for it. In his eyes, these Mongols who were subdued by the Qing Dynasty were actually garbage. Yes, none of these Mongolians present should run, they are all garbage, they are the dogs of the Qing Dynasty. It's the king of the Qing Dynasty, so why bother with these dogs!

"You say, how many things will Prince Zheng snatch back this time?"

"No matter how many things are grabbed, our Urad Department has contributed the most, and we should get the most when we turn around!"

"You dare to lie to Changshengtian? Who said that your Urat Department has contributed the most, do you know how many men and horses our Chahar Department has dispatched? It also provides grain and grass materials for the Qing army, which should be the most important part of our Chahar part! ”

"Hehe, isn't there any grain and grass supplies for our Urad Ministry? Come, come, call you Ezhe Khan, let's have a look together, and see who has the most food, grass and materials! ”

“……”

After the death of Lin Dan Khan, his wife was divided by Huang Taiji. Among them, Lin Dan Khan's main room is Huang Taiji's, by the way, Huang Taiji himself has more than one; In addition, other wives were assigned to Lin Dan Khan's original subordinates who performed well, and those who were assigned to Zilharang, Abatai and Hauge also both. Even the old man Dai Shan, because Lin Dan Khan's wife was not enough, he was assigned to Lin Dan Khan's sister.

It is true that in the eyes of the Mongolian tribe and the Liaodong Jianlu, this kind of chaotic relationship between marriage and marriage is not a matter for them. But, no matter what, it means that it is the losing side.

Also, Lin Dan Khan's son also surrendered to Jianyu, although he was given preferential treatment, and even married a daughter of Huang Taiji, but he was also free and was placed under house arrest in Shengjing's Horse Mansion, and could not return to his tribe.

Obviously, the Urat Ministry is using these things to cancel the Chahar Ministry and laugh at them.

Suddenly, the Chahar Ministry was furious, and naturally there were any scars to reveal. Didn't your Urad Department still surrender to the Qing Dynasty, isn't there a little bit of trouble?

In this way, they were originally happily welcoming the triumph of Zilharang, but later, the Mongolian tribes quarreled with each other, except that because of the presence of Azig, they did not dare to move their hands and feet, and the mouths were not clean to each other, which was showing their powers.

Under normal circumstances, when this kind of thing happens, Azig, as the boss here, naturally wants to reprimand or persuade peace.

However, at this time, Azig was very comfortable listening to it. If you dare to ignore this king, then this king should not exist. Scold, this king is also happy to hear it!

Ying Ordai couldn't stand it anymore, but he wasn't the boss, so he quietly signaled to Azig.

Azig didn't hear it until he saw Ying Ordai coming over, and then he whispered: "Let them go, their tribe is not in harmony, and it will be beneficial for me to rule them over the Qing Dynasty!" ”

When Ying Ordai heard this, he stopped speaking and scolded them.

Slowly, the army of Zilharan was getting closer and closer, and you could see that in the midst of the army, there were countless oxen and wagons, full of things, pots and pans, food supplies, everything. There were also groups of Ming people, driven by the Jianyu cavalry, stumbling along.

There is so much loot! When the leader of the Mongolian tribe saw it, his eyes immediately turned red, and in order to get more points to turn back, the quarrel of the show of merit became more and more intense. It was like pouring oil on a fire, and it suddenly became violent.

However, in Azig's eyes, he was disappointed in his heart for Zilharang's harvest. When the Qing Dynasty invaded the land of Gyeonggi in the Ming Kingdom, it was not much more robbed than this time. Except for the time when Chongzhen was in the second year, he even grabbed pots and pans, and the other few times he entered the customs, who wants this thing! Unexpectedly, this time, I saw pots and pans again.

Come to think of it, the northwest of the Ming Kingdom is definitely not as rich as the land of Gyeonggi. But in any case, it is much richer than on the grassland. It's no wonder that these dogs are arguing like this.

Azig thought so, until he could see Zilharang's figure, he turned his head and said coldly: "Shut up all to this king, which tribe has the most contribution, I have the final say." ”

Hearing this, the leaders of the Urad and Chahar tribes immediately shut up, but they did not regret being reprimanded in their hearts. In their hearts, this quarrel was originally for the Qing Dynasty, if they didn't make a noise, they wouldn't be taken seriously by the Qing Dynasty, wouldn't it be in vain! When you go back and distribute the materials, you will definitely divide less, which is absolutely not allowed.

They all made calculations, and finally when Zilharang got closer, they all stopped for a moment, and no matter what thoughts they had in their hearts, they all smiled and greeted them.
