"The great Dayan Khan, the great Altan Khan, the descendants of Genghis Khan, the descendants of the Golden Family, and the true masters of the Tumut tribe, how can there be an eagle with folded wings, which can only crawl on the ground!"

A mournful cry like a wolf's howl sounded abruptly in a huge Mongolian tent inlaid with golden inscriptions. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 Immediately, there was a loud "bang" in the tent.

"Ehe (mother), Eqige (father) smashed the wine glass again." On a small felt outside the tent, sixteen-year-old Ingmar hugged her mother Chileg's neck tightly, and tears flowed from her face unconsciously.

Fujin Qileg's eyes were also shining with tears, she hugged Ingmar tightly, and said in a low voice: "Ingmar, our Tumut tribe has suffered blows and setbacks one after another, and the King Khan feels uncomfortable, so let him vent alone." ”

While the two were whispering, the tent door of the yurt was suddenly opened, and a short, stout Mongolian man wearing a greasy stand-up collar Mongolian robe, with a bluish scalp exposed, and only a ring of braided hair from his forehead to behind his ears, staggered out of the tent.

He held a wine glass in one hand, pointed to the void with the other, and scolded loudly: "Wenbu Chuhuer, Shanba, you two Jurchen lackeys, you two lowly servants who betrayed your master, Ben Khan swears that he will inflict the most cruel curse and the most terrible sword and soldier disaster on the two of you, so that you will not die a good death, and you will never be able to turn over in hell!" ”

This person who pointed his finger at the void and cursed was the last Tumut Khan, Dabur.

The two people he scolded, Wenbu Chuhu and Shanba, were two of his most trusted Jinongs, but under the lure of the Jurchen Tatar chieftain Taiji, they rebelled one after another, and in 1629, with a large number of Tumut tribesmen, population, livestock and wealth, moved from the loveless Mantao to the border outside Jinzhou in eastern Liaodong and the border with the Karaqin tribe, which is the origin of Eastern Tumut.

The Tumuts who remained in the area of Fengzhou Beach outside Xuanzhen and Datong Town, and were still loyal to Tumuthan Dapur himself, were called West Tumut.

Swearing revenge, Tumut Khan Dapur became more and more loyal to the Mongol ruler Lin Dan Khan, intending to use the power of Lin Dan Khan to regain the lost population and tribes, and cut the two hateful traitors into meat sauce.

Who knew that Dabur's ambitious revenge plan was crushed quite completely in the cruel reality.

Just two months ago, the leader of the Han Dynasty, the titular Mongol communist lord Lin Dan Khan, died of illness in Qinghai under the continuous attacks of the Later Jin, and the Han tribe collapsed, and Xitu Mot, as a loyal ally of the Han tribe, was naturally brutally attacked by Huang Taiji.

Originally, the residence of Tumut Khan, Bansheng City, located in Daqing Mountain, was burned down by the Houjin army, and the tribe was plundered, disintegrated and slaughtered by most of the tribes, and when Tumut Khan Dabur surrendered to the Jurchens, all his subordinates were only 3,300 people left!

At its peak, the population reached 540,000. Now there are only 3,300 people left, most of whom are old and weak, and the entire tribe can be said to be on the verge of extinction.

The two of them, Wenbu Chushu and Shanba, suggested to Huang Taiji that Tumut Khan Dapur be killed, and all the remnants of the Western Tumut tribe would be divided by the two of them, so that the Tumut tribe would be completely subjugated.

However, Huang Taiji rejected their suggestion.

The reason is very simple, the current West Tumert Ministry is like a candle in the wind, and it has no strength to resist itself anymore. It is better to keep Tumut Khan to show his magnanimity. And by letting go of the actions of the Tumut tribe, he showed the Trans-Khalkha Mongolian tribes who had not surrendered to him that they had a tolerance of people regardless of their previous suspicions, so as to urge the Outer Mongolian tribes to submit to Dajin as soon as possible.

The last Tumut Khan, because of Huang Taiji's conception, was fortunate to survive.

Tumut Khan Dapur, who was hit hard and destitute, couldn't think of any way to cheer up his tribe except for **** borrowing wine to drown his sorrows.

If according to normal history, the last Tumut Khan Dabur will die in the last years of Shunzhi, because of the childlessness, the Tumut Khan was canceled, the Eastern Tumut was merged into the Mongolian Eight Banners, and the Western Tumut was finally reorganized into the left and right banners, and this establishment has been preserved to this day.

"Eqige, don't drink anymore, my daughter begs you!" The daughter, Ingmar, rushed up to snatch the glass from her father's hand.

A stout right hand pushed over, and Ingmar was thrust hard against the grass.

"If you don't drink, what can you do! I have a few people and a poor population, and what future is there to speak of! Instead of waiting to die, it is better to get drunk! ”

Dabur snorted coldly, poured the remaining wine in the cup into his mouth and drank it all, his brown pupils full of pain and confusion.

Fujin Qileg helped Ingmar up on the ground, and the mother and daughter hugged their heads and cried.

At this moment, there was a rapid sound of horses' hooves, and a cavalryman galloped forward.

"Great Khan, Taiji Bagen has been discovered, now there are many craftsmen digging and building in the boundary of Jinjiazhuang Fort in the Ming Kingdom, Lord Bagen asks for instructions, the Ming people are building here, there must be a large amount of gold and silver, do you want to **** a vote."

Hearing the cavalry's report, Dabur's standard Mongolian eyes suddenly flashed with a wolf-like fierce gaze.

"Bang!"

There was another loud bang, and the wine glass in Dabur's hand was smashed to pieces.

"Of course you have to do it, my department is so poor, such an opportunity to make a fortune, how can we easily let it go! While the people of the Ming Kingdom were not ready, all the Ding Zhuang people in our department went out to snatch his vote! Dabur gritted his teeth and said fiercely.

"Eqige, please don't send troops!" Ingmar exclaimed, and hurriedly said to Dabur: "Father Khan, our tribe has just suffered heavy losses in the battle with the Jin Dynasty, and its vitality has not yet recovered. ”

"You know what!" Dabur roared angrily: "The people of the Ming Kingdom are different from the people of the Jin Dynasty, except for those Jiading guards who still have combat effectiveness, the rest of the soldiers and people are a group of tame sheep, and they are not the opponents of my Mongolian cavalry at all!" If the Ming people build the castle, then our department will have no chance to do it even if they want to. ”

"Eqige, you have to be cautious, if our tribe is defeated in the hands of the Ming people again and loses Ding Zhuang, there will be no hope of turning over." Ingmar's voice was tinged with tears.

"Hugh said more! Ben Khan has made up his mind, and today he will take the Ming people, rob them of their wealth, and capture their women! With the blood and gold and silver of the Ming people, we will pave the way for the re-development and growth of our Tumut Department! A look of hideousness flashed across Dabur's face, and he gritted his teeth.

。。。。。。

When Dabur mobilized the last 600 elite cavalry of the headquarters and headed from west to east to the junction of the Border Mountain and the Tangquan River, Li Xiao's Jintang City was in full swing.

After Li Xiao's meeting on the construction of Jintang City was completed, only five days later, Li Xiao recruited a large number of craftsmen from the surrounding state forts, and immediately began to excavate the earth after drawing the boundary of powder ash.

At the meeting five days ago, Li Xiao had already decided on the personnel arrangements for Jintang City in the future.

Li Xiao decided to promote Duan Shidi, the former deputy chief of General A, to the chief of General C, and stationed in Jintang City for a long time. Like Tian Wei, the chief of General A, and Wang Yishou, the chief of General B, he became the general of the town guarding the side.

Li Xiao chose Duan Shitong because he valued his loyalty all along, and secondly, because this young general knew Mongolian and could easily communicate with the Mongols in the future. After all, when he was in the pier of no return that day, Duan Shidi went to the Karaqin Department on the border of Jinzhou to successfully buy a horse and came back, which left a deep impression on him.

At the same time, Li Xiao expanded the army of each general. He stipulated that each fixed soldier was: 5 teams of shield soldiers, 10 teams of spearmen, 60 Xuanhu heavy cavalry, and 60 flying harriers. The number of soldiers per total number of soldiers and horses is 1,650.

The rampant team and the firearms unit, because there are few skilled martial arts and the number of firearms is also insufficient, they temporarily follow the action of General A, and the other two general units are not equipped for the time being.

Li Xiao decided to draw out a team of shield soldiers, a second team of spearmen, as well as 20 Xuanhu heavy cavalry and 20 flying harriers from the soldiers and horses that have been refilled now, as the backbone of the soldiers and horses of General C.

Xu Xiu, a member of the Supervision and Restoration Division, was promoted to Director C of the Fu Division for his outstanding performance in the rampant team, assisting Duan Shidi in his work.

Now, the sub-division of the Security Department has also been established, and the personnel are jointly selected by Li Xiao and Huang Bao, the director of the Security Department.

Chen Mazi's medical hall and Zhang Tongzhu's blacksmith shop also retained several capable personnel to prepare for the construction of a local long-term medical center and blacksmith shop in Jintang City.

The rest of the soldiers and horses of General A and other auxiliary personnel were ready to return to Shandong with Li Xiao.

In Jintang City, like Chifeng Fort, in addition to the Safety Division of the Supervision and Restoration Division, it is necessary to set up a commercial division, an industrial division, a civil affairs division, a money and grain division, an education division and other institutions after the city is built. Li Xiao plans to select a group of relevant personnel to come over after returning to Shandong to carry out specific work.

Then, Li Xiao made a major decision that everyone didn't expect.

That is, he made An Qian the governor of Jintang City and became the general person in charge of the daily operation of Jintang City, except for the army and related institutions, he was responsible for other administrative departments.

Li Xiao values the advantage of An Qian's serious and subtle thinking, this kind of person is not enterprising enough, but he is more than successful, and now that the plan of Jintang City has been decided, it is very suitable to use a person like An Qian to be responsible for the overall responsibility and actual arrangement of work.

And An Qian's heart was even more grateful to Li Xiao for such a kind of kindness, and secretly vowed to do his best to do a good job in order to be worthy of Li Xiao's promotion and favor.

Of course, An Qian also knew that although Li Xiao trusted him so much, there was still relevant supervision. I wouldn't be stupid enough to really think that the Security Division was just an ornament.

These days, when Li Xiao's subordinates went to the surrounding castles to recruit a large number of craftsmen, they also attracted a large number of homeless people to come over, and the total number of homeless people everywhere added up to nearly 10,000 people. Because of the military disaster of this Tartar invasion, the number of old and weak is very small, and most of them are sturdy adult men and women, which is really a very timely supplement for Li Xiaojun, who is now in urgent need of labor and soldiers.

Li Xiao organized all these displaced people into military households in the fort, and he became a member of Li Xiaojun.

These people, in addition to selecting more than 1,000 people, starting recruit training, and preparing to supplement the general soldiers of C, the rest of the people, Li Xiao asked them to build the city wall with the craftsmen like the people in the fort.

Looking at the craftsmen and the people in the fort, under the command of Wei Zhen, Fu Anqian and others, they started construction in an orderly manner, Li Xiao was very happy.

According to An Qian's estimates, with sufficient manpower, it is possible to build the outer wall of Jintang City without bricks in two months.

Li Xiao is still satisfied with this progress. It was quite a good achievement to be able to successfully complete the city wall before the ground could be frozen and hard to be excavated.

In the afternoon of the same day, the flying harrier, who had been sent to spy outside the border mountain, sent Li Xiao a shocking news.

"Lord Li, we have found out that a team of Mongolian Tatar cavalry of about 600 people is coming towards the intersection of the border mountain and the Tangquan River, and it is very likely that they are coming to capture my Jinjiazhuang Fort!"

After Li Xiao listened, a grim expression slipped across his face.

He who had read the history of the Ming Dynasty in his previous life knew that the current Tumut Department was divided and weak, and he originally thought that they would stay in the area of Prince City and Fengzhou Beach in the west, but he didn't expect that these people would dare to fight his idea now.

Hmph, it's a dog's guts!

The elite Houjin Tartars who have become an establishment have been disabled by our army, you are 600 Mongolian Tartars, if Lao Tzu doesn't beat you out of the, Lao Tzu won't be surnamed Li! Li Xiao said fiercely in his heart.

"Pass my military orders. The whole army is out in a hurry! Set up a battle to meet these Mongolian Tartars who don't know whether they are alive or dead! Li Xiao coldly ordered.

Half an hour later, Li Xiaojun set up a formation at the junction of the border mountain and the Tangquan River.

At this time, 600 Mongolian Tatars who had been running for a long time had just arrived.

On the slopes of the border mountains, which are full of rocky vegetation, next to a large abrupt stone, a clairie mirror made of refined copper is keeping a close eye on them.

After a while, this clairvoyant mirror was put down, revealing the handsome and resolute face of the commander Li Xiao.

Li Xiao saw that these Tartars, one person and two horses, were running extremely fast, but the equipment on these Mongolian cavalry was extremely shabby, only less than a hundred people had armor, and the rest of the cavalry were all dressed as herdsmen.

Amid the rumbling sound of horses' hooves, these people screamed strangely, and each of them had a greedy and yearning expression.

Li Xiao sneered in his heart, perhaps, in the eyes of these Mongolian Tatars, as long as they crossed the junction of this border mountain and the Tangquan River and reached the territory of the Ming Kingdom, there would be countless gold, silver and women waiting for them to plunder.

It's just that no matter how cunning the wolf is, it can't hide from the clever hunter.

Now, I want to break the fangs of your greed in this desolate borderland.

As the Mongols rushed down the slopes of the border mountain before screaming and beating their horses, 50 Lumi guns opened fire at the same time.

"Bang 。。。。。。"

In the dense and choking white smoke, nearly forty small lead bullets weighing three coins roared towards the Upper Mongols on horseback.

More than twenty Mongolian Tartars immediately fell from their horses screaming and falling off, and were immediately trampled into pulp by the horses that rushed up from behind.

The Mongolian cavalry team immediately appeared in confusion, and the speed of its advance was stagnant.

The sharp-eyed Mongolian cavalry immediately saw that at the moment of confusion, a straight black army battle formation suddenly appeared in front, blocking the distance from the border mountain to the Tangquan River.

The spikes on the large shield that were placed straight on one side, and the rows of stainless steel spears sticking out at the same distance from the large shield, were shining with a dazzling golden light in the afternoon sun.

"Be careful!"

Dabur shouted.

As soon as his words fell, there were still more than a dozen cavalrymen rushing to the front, unable to restrain their horses' hooves, and either hit the spikes of their shields, or were immediately stabbed to death by the rows of pikemen.

"Retreat, we're in ambush!"

Seeing that dozens of cavalrymen on the side were dead in an instant, Dabur, who was pale, hissed and roared.

On the hillside, when he saw that the Mongolian cavalry had fallen off their horses and wanted to turn around and flee, a sneer slipped on Li Xiao's face, and he immediately gave the next military order.

Like a group of ghosts, from behind the border mountain, the Xuanhu heavy cavalry and the flying harrier light cavalry rushed out in a scattered formation, firmly blocking the back road of the Mongolian Tatars.

At the same time, the rampant team rushed down from the hillside, like tigers out of the mountain, shouting, and quickly rushed into the scattered formation of the Mongol Tartars, whose morale was already low, and slashed and killed.

Heavy weapons tiger knives, tiger guns, long-handled knives, and eyebrow broadswords all greeted those panicked Mongolian cavalry, and in the shadow of the swords and guns, blood burst out, and the sound of screams continued to rise.

Dabur was horrified to see that Taiji Bagen had just struggled to break the knife of one of the rampaging team members, when a bald man with a shiny head jumped up with a roar and stabbed a shot through the chest of Bagan, who was only wearing a leather armor, and the thick muzzle of the gun peeked through his chest.

The bald man drew his gun, and the blood in his chest was like a fountain in his chest, and he staggered and fell off his horse, falling to the ground without moving.

At this time, the cavalry of Li Xiaojun in the back and the spear and shield battle array in front of him let out a shout almost at the same time, and began to flank back and forth.

The Mongol Tatars, who were surrounded on three sides, instantly fell into a desperate situation. Some of the Mongol cavalry, forced into a hurry, actually waded into the Tangquan River, trying to cross the river and escape.

Immediately, more than a hundred spearmen jumped out from behind the spear and shield battle array, quickly stabbed the cavalry who stepped into the river, and then wrapped them in a semi-arc.

Dabur was still shouting loudly, asking everyone to rush out of the battle together, when a flying hammer struck him in the arm, and Tumuthan Dabur immediately fainted, but fortunately the cavalry of the guards next to him protected him, so he did not fall off his horse.

Seeing that the leader was unconscious, the remaining Mongol cavalry quickly collapsed.

Crying and begging for mercy, they threw down their swords, jumped off their horses, and fell to their knees.

"Everyone, don't fight, we surrender, we surrender!" Among the Mongolian cavalry, a crisp Chinese voice shouted loudly.

Li Xiao's heart moved, and he immediately gave the order to stop the attack.

This short ambush battle ended here.

More than 80 Mongol Tatars were killed and more than 100 were wounded, while Li Xiaojun, only 2 spearmen were killed and 8 were slightly wounded, which can be called a complete victory.

With an inexplicable smile on his face, Li Xiao bypassed the surrendered cavalry who were kneeling on the ground in front of him, and walked straight towards the Mongolian cavalry who had just shouted surrender.

"Stand up!" Walking up to this person, Li Xiao shouted.

The cavalryman raised his head and looked at Li Xiao, who was fully armored in front of him, with a frightened expression, and then slowly stood up straight.

Li Xiao was very surprised in his heart, he saw that this cavalryman, although he was wearing ordinary herdsman's robes, his figure could not hide his slender form. And on this person's face, there is still a childish atmosphere, and a pair of eyes that show a panicked look are very bright.

"What do you want to do!"

The cavalryman came back from the initial panic and saw Li Xiao's contemptuous smile, and his heart was very annoyed, and he let out another crisp angry shout.

Li Xiao didn't answer, the horsewhip in his hand shook, and he picked off the felt hat on the head of the cavalryman, and suddenly, the cavalryman's black hair like a waterfall was revealed.

"Oh, it's a woman." A mocking smile appeared on Li Xiao's face: "The Chinese language is good." What is your name? ”

"My name is Ingmar." The Mongolian woman bowed her head and replied with difficulty.

"Ingmar, well, nice name." A strange smile appeared on Li Xiao's face, and he tapped his right hand with the whip and said, "I have heard that according to the laws of your Mongols, the winner has all the right to dispose of the prisoners and booty, so, young girl, what should I do with you next?" (To be continued.) )
