Lin Yi single-handedly retreated from the enemy with one move.

Lin Yi quickly caught up with Zu Keyong's team, and when they were still more than 30 miles away from their camp, Xiao Ying and the others, after transporting the goods, came to meet with Wang Jian, Zhang Hua and others with hundreds of people, and the two sides joined forces and returned to their camp in the mountains and forests safely.

It was late in the evening. Seeing the large cars and small cars in the courtyard, neatly arranged, Lin Yi felt that these things were too hard-won.

"After the counting, all of them should be stored in the warehouse, and the grain, grass, and equipment and explosives should be stored separately, and they must be handled gently, fireworks are strictly prohibited, and people should be sent to be on duty day and night."

"Don't worry, sir."

Wang Jian and the others happily agreed, they had been looking forward to this batch of goods for a long time. Wang Jian took hundreds of people to guard the camp and was busy, unloading livestock, unloading trucks, counting, and warehousing, and the warehouse had already been prepared. It had to be done overnight.

However, these jobs, Wang Jian and the 700 people in the camp are enough.

Lin Yi ignored the fatigue of the conquest and the saddle horse, and hurriedly reorganized the soldiers and horses and treated the wounded.

The deal was done in a thrilling and dangerous way, and it lasted three days, with a total of more than 1,100 people dispatched, and more than 200 casualties were counted. In other words, Lin Yi counted his more than 100 guards, plus more than 1,000 Guanning iron cavalry, a total of more than 1,500 soldiers and horses, which was all the armed forces he now mastered.

The casualties were not small, but their gains were greater. The looted strategic materials not only solved the short-term food problem for more than 1,000 people, but also obtained a batch of explosives, iron and firearms. There are knives and spears, as well as a lot of muskets, some of which can be used directly, and more importantly, explosives are very useful.

In addition, they also got a few thousand taels of silver, 3,500 taels of silver tickets, and more than two thousand taels of cash directly on the car, which is mainly the cost of this batch of dealers, even the cash silver and silver tickets combined, Lin Yi now has 6,000 taels of silver in his hand, these are patterned silver, that is, good silver, not scattered silver taels.

This bit of silver is very much for more than 1,000 people, but it is better than nothing. Lin Yi regarded these as necessary military expenditures, and then used this batch of silver at a critical moment.

This business is done, they don't have to worry about food and salary within half a year, only with food and salary can the morale of the army be stabilized, now Lin Yi and Zu Keyong and others have the bottom in their hearts, and they have survived the most difficult moment.

The batch of strategic resources provided to them by the Jin merchants, Lin Yi asked Wang Jian to be in charge, and Xiaoying assisted, all of them were put into the warehouse, and then they were shipped out of the warehouse, the sealing of the sealing, and the allocation of the allocation.

After dinner, countless torches lit up the entire camp compound.

Someone registered, someone unloaded, someone carried, Wang Jian commanded. Lin Yi had seen all these things beforehand, and the specific number was not clear.

When the grain was moved, the brothers were overjoyed, and it was really a fall from the sky that there was so much grain.

What excites them the most is that they love iron, firearms and explosives.

When unloading the car, I also found the official road guide of the Jin merchants, that is, the customs clearance documents or passes.

Xiao Ying handed it to Lin Yi, Lin Yi unfolded it and looked at it carefully, there was the seal of the official master on it, as well as the handwriting of the old man Han, these things were too useful.

Together with the banner of the Jin merchants, Lin Yi asked Xiaoying to keep them alive and not to damage or lose them, these things may come in handy at any time. At that time, it may be able to resist thousands of horses and thousands of troops, even if it is a priceless treasure, and it will not be as useful as these things at that time.

After the problem of food and clothing was solved, starting the next day, Lin Yi was not idle for a day, seizing the time to train the troops, and the training of more than 1,000 Guanning iron cavalry, Lin Yi was specifically handed over to Zu Keyong to be responsible, including the police work in the camp.

Lin Yi and his guards also invested in the upsurge of military training, every day, Lin Yi first practiced the kung fu of stepping, practiced fist and foot fighting, practiced single knife, and then practiced straddle horse sword, and practiced bow and arrow, including foot archery and mounted archery.

Driven by Lin Yi, Xiaoying, Zhang Hua, He Tao, Wang Qi, Erhu, Dongsheng, Gan Bao and Jiang Xingyuan and others got up early every day to practice martial arts.

The weather was getting warmer day by day, and after dinner that night, Lin Yi was sitting in the camp tent, reading a few books that Lu Xiangsheng left for him.

Xiao Ying came in from outside, and now Xiao Ying has grown taller again, her small body has developed more slim, her walking is more steady, her breath is more calm, and her two grape-like eyes are more crystal clear, indicating that her martial arts have made progress again.

"Brother Lin, we've been training for more than two months, and when the weather gets warmer, when will we kill them? Do you want to stay in this mountain forest? ”

Lin Yi put the book down gently, looked at her and said with a smile: "It's almost time, when the Tartars invade, it will be the day we send troops."

"How do you know the Tartars are coming? Last time you beat them so badly, do they dare to come? Xiao Ying said with a wink of charming eyes.

"You are too naïve, you still don't know these Tartars, they are not afraid to fight, only kill them, otherwise they will definitely come, not only will they come, but they will come more violently, it is because of their fiasco last time, this time they robbed their business path, they will intensify, Huang Taiji is ambitious!"

"Then if they invade on a large scale, we will have such a few men and horses, how can we resist, and there are no cannons, the court is now searching for us and treating us like thieves, we are too much of a soldier."

Xiao Ying complained, and Lin Yi smiled.

"We are mainly harmed by traitors now, and we will fall to this step of the world, I believe that the emperor will understand one day, who is loyal to whom, it doesn't matter if he really doesn't understand, we don't care about the affairs of the court, and we can't manage so much, we are responsible for defending the land as soldiers, we can kill Tartars and kill Tartars, we can get rid of traitors and traitors, of course, we will not let go when we encounter corrupt officials and corrupt officials, but there is one point, we will never be thieves, we are still soldiers of the Ming Dynasty."

"But Brother Lin, we have become thieves in the eyes of the imperial court, no different from those thieves, they are sending troops everywhere to exterminate us."

"Of course I know this, but we are not thieves, we must know ourselves, since ancient times, we have been victors, princes, and losers, and thieves, and you will understand later."

"Okay, Brother Lin." Xiaoying nodded with confused eyes.

"As long as there is food, we will not go out to be thieves, not even righteous thieves. Now that the eunuchs and Yang Sichang and others are in power, we must first pay close attention to military training, but we can't sit back and wait for the Tartars, the spring is coming, you take the brothers to train the troops and open up the wasteland and farm the land, if you can achieve self-sufficiency, it will be better. ”

"Got it, Brother Lin, you still plan to live in seclusion in this mountain for a long time."

Lin Yi smiled: "I would like to, but if the tree wants to be quiet and the wind does not stop, it should be fast."

From the spring of this year, they picked up farm tools and began to farm, put down farm tools and began to train. Needless to say, training and practicing martial arts is their specialty.

Planting crops and reclamation, they are not laymen, Xiaoying has lived a few years of reclamation life in the institute, Wang Jian, Zhang Hua, He Tao, Erhu, Wang Qi and others Although they are border soldiers, but the reclamation of the guard is the work they have done, not to mention Lin Yi, before the crossing, he was born as a poor child in the countryside, and these farm jobs are difficult for him.

The intense training and tiring farm work made their lives very fulfilling. In May of this year, the first harvest season was ushered in, which was a good harvest after the Xiaoice River period. This year, not only Lin Yi and them had a bumper harvest, but farmers in Henan, Shandong, Shaanxi, Hebei, and many places ushered in a bumper harvest.

Lin Yi and their vegetables and grains have been harvested, in addition to satisfying their own food and self-use, they also have a lot of surplus, so that they don't have to worry about eating by the end of the year.

At this time, the wolf smoke of the side plug rose again......

In February 1637, the first month of the old calendar, Lin Yi successfully robbed the Jin merchants. During this period, Huang Taiji, who was entrenched in Shengjing, was not idle.

He sent Azig Amin to attack the Ming Dynasty and plan another war while harassing the Ming Dynasty. In order to sweep away the worries of conquering the Ming Dynasty, he needed two large-scale wars, and he had to conquer Mongol and Chaoguo.

At the end of 1936, Huang Taiji drove a personal expedition to attack the dynasty, and the Li dynasty of the dynasty, of course, could not resist the iron hooves of the Eight Banners, and sent people to ask the Ming for help, but at this time the Ming Dynasty was already too busy to take care of itself and had no soldiers to send.

After more than two months of fighting, Huang Taiji's army invaded the capital of the dynasty, and the Li dynasty had no choice but to bow down to the vassals, and from then on, the dynasty had a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty and became a vassal state of the Qing Dynasty. This war is equivalent to the Qing Dynasty taking the dynasty from the hands of the Ming Dynasty.

After the Huang Taiji class, Azig and Amin returned in a crushing defeat, Yue Tuo was killed, and Abatai was wounded. Huang Taiji was furious and adjusted his strategic deployment. decided to use the largest and largest troops of the Ming Dynasty, first of all, he wanted to attack Jinzhou.

At this time, the two Han ministers Ning Wan and Fan Wencheng suggested to him that if you want to get Liaodong, you must first get Phi Island, treat the Ming Dynasty, now we should focus on peace, supplemented by war, prohibit slaughter, reuse the Han generals, and focus on dealing with Monan Mongolia, sweep away the last obstacles, accumulate strength, and then attack the Ming Dynasty on a large scale.

Huang Taiji laughed, Ning Wan and Fan Wencheng are really his right-hand men, and when it comes to his heart, he immediately adopted the suggestions of the two.

At the beginning of spring, Azig was sent to attack Phi Dao, and Kong Youde, Geng Zhongming, and Shang Kexi, three big traitors, led their headquarters to go out with the army.

The current Qing Dynasty is not only the Eight Banners, the Eight Banners of the Manchu Qing Dynasty plus the two banners of Mobei Mongolia, plus one banner of the Han people, a total of eleven banners.

One of the banners of the Han people is Kong Youde, Geng Zhongming and Shang Kexi, these generals and horses, the three big traitors, are now all crowned kings.

At this time, news came from the Ming Dynasty that the goods sent to them by the Jin merchants were robbed, and Lin Yi haunted the Yingzhou area.

Huang Taiji was furious, this is an extremely important strategic resource, years of war, the Qing Dynasty's strategic resources are particularly scarce. The Jin merchants were robbed in Yingzhou, and the loss was not only a batch of strategic materials, but also the border trade business of the Qing Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty. Without Jin Shang's funding, his strategic deployment would have been disrupted.

Huang Taiji hurriedly found two scholars, Fan Wencheng and Ning Wan. The two once again gave advice to Huang Taiji, and this time they advocated local troops against the Ming Dynasty. Instead of attacking Jinzhou Shanhaiguan and Ningyuan, it was still going around to the Mongolian side and entering the customs to harass the Ming Dynasty and Jinggi, one was to loot some strategic resources, the second was to force the Ming Dynasty to negotiate and make concessions, and the third was to strike a blow to Lin Yi and other thieves in the Yingzhou area.

Huang Taiji adopted the advice of the two, the weather was cold, the snow was closed, and it was not easy to send troops. However, they used these two months to hurry up preparations for war, and outside Shengshangjing, Huang Taiji also personally inspected his artillery unit.

In April, the ice and snow melted, and the army of Azig on Phi Island set out.

After several months of preparation and dispatch of troops, in August of the same year, Huang Taiji ordered Ao to worship in Qingziling, north of Miyun, destroy the Great Wall and blow up the passage, Huang Taiji took Dolgon and Amin, Haoge and Tan Tai, and crossed the Great Wall to the south again.

There is indeed this battle in history, but this battle is not the Emperor Taiji's personal expedition, it is that Dolgon is ordered to be greatly commanded, Yue Tuo is the great commander of Yangwei, and the troops are marched from two directions.

Due to Lin Yi's crossing, many historical events have changed, and the war still broke out, but the scale was obviously escalated, Huang Taiji drove his own expedition, Dolgon was still the great commander, commanding the left wing army, because Yue Tuo died Amin commanding the right wing army, Huang Taiji commanded the Chinese army, and the three-way army crossed the Great Wall and rolled in.

The new governor of Datong, Miyun and Xuanfu Wu Aheng was killed, Yang Guozhu, the general soldier of Miyun, was defeated at the touch of a button, Wang Pu, the chief soldier of Datong, Shanxi, fled without a fight, and the general soldier of Xuanfu Hu David fled from the wind.

In the face of Huang Taiji's Manchu iron cavalry, the Ming army in many places was simply vulnerable, and the Qing army was like a bamboo, directly penetrating the land of Gyeonggi of the Ming Dynasty.

Soon, more than a dozen prefectures and counties such as Miyun, Yizhou, Shunyi, Huailai, Changping, Qianxi, Zunhua, etc., were ravaged by the iron hooves of the Tartars.

The Ming Jingshi shook.
