Chapter 233 Find a helper
When Shen Yiyuan heard this, he stopped his cup and chopsticks, first stunned for a while, but finally said ruthlessly: "If they really come to suppress it, they should fight to the death, no matter how powerful their Jingbian Fort army is, there are only 700 people, and we have 3,000 people." They are all Ming border troops with us, so we don't necessarily have to be afraid of them. ”
"Brother don't underestimate him, I heard that Liu Renyu was just a small sideman in the past, so he killed the northern captives and became the boss. Later, he led his troops to kill Bayala, the most powerful of Jiannu, and later he fought against thieves for many years, all of them were outnumbered, and every time he won a big victory, he never had a defeat. You see, he's already a guerrilla general now. Shen Yikui reminded his brother.
When Shen Yiyuan heard this, he was silent for a long time, and said: "You are right, but we have nothing to do at the moment, but we can only do more coercion, strengthen the momentum, and when his troops arrive, fight with him, if you can't win, you can only go to the ravine." If he kills him, it's nothing, and the happy days we've lived these days are worth it even if we're dead. ”
"Otherwise, otherwise, brother, if we fight him like this, it will naturally be more than lucky, but brother, I have a plan, maybe we can live, I don't know if my brother wants to hear it." Shen Yiyuan shook his head slightly and said with a smile.
"Oh, second brother, what do you have to say, let's hear it." Shen Yiyuan said with interest.
"Dare to ask my brother, what do you think of the Mongols?"
"Enemies for many years."
"No, no, brother, the Mongols are the enemies of the emperor's family, the enemies of the Ming Dynasty, not our enemies." Shen Yikui corrected.
"You mean .......!"
"Brother, I think that the Mongols are all poor and sour, and every time they go south, that is, to plunder and obtain their children's jade silk. Now we have rebelled, for the sake of the children's jade silk, since we both want the same thing, it is better for us to discuss with the Mongols, discuss, let's work together to attack the city, share the children's jade silk.
I heard that Jingbian Fort produces carriages, glass mirrors, and the latest soap, I think it must be extremely rich, let's take the Mongols to fight Jingbian Fort together, and lay down Jingbian Fort, and the children and jade silks belong to the Mongols, we only need Liu Renyu's head, I don't know what my brother thinks? Shen Yikui sneered for a while and asked his brother.
"This plan is very good, but the Mongols are alien after all, we still have relatives who died in their hands, and we have been fighting for many years, and we have a deep resentment against each other, is it a little ......... to talk about cooperation now." Shen Yiyuan frowned.
"Brother, what about the aliens? The officers and soldiers belong to the same clan as us, and if they want to kill us, what is the use of the same clan? As long as the Mongols can help us deal with the government and Liu Renyu, what if we cooperate with them? As for personal enmity, it doesn't matter, our relatives are dead, what do you remember about those hatreds? Now, the most important thing for us who are still alive to continue to live, brother, don't you say? God advised.
Shen Yiyuan touched his head, thought for a while, and then nodded and said: "That's it, the current situation is urgent, that is, in the future, I will go to the ground, and I can't see my relatives who died in the hands of the Mongols, so I can only cooperate with the Mongols for the time being." Yikui, Ying Deng, who of you two would like to be a lobbyist for me, go and talk to the Mongols, we are willing to cooperate with them. ”
Gao Yingdeng and Shen Yikui first glanced at each other, and then Shen Yikui said: "Brother, my brother in the war, I naturally need to do such things as negotiating with the Mongols, and my brother just needs to wait for my reply." ”
"Okay, I'll be waiting for you here at Nimsetburg." Shen Yiyuan told his younger brother a few words, and then asked him to go to Ningxia Town with gold and silver to find the Mongols to cooperate.
It is said that at this time, Lin Dan Khan, the great Khan of the Chahar Department, was forced by the pressure of Huang Taiji to lead his troops to move west, defeated the Ordos Department, and successfully occupied the Hetao area.
In the process of fighting with Huang Taiji, he passively avoided the battle, fled all the way to the west, the troops fled a lot, and lost a lot of cattle and sheep.
With such losses, Lin Dan Khan was very painful, so he sent troops south to Ningxia and Gansu to plunder according to the usual practice.
Among them, Tashhai, the general manager of the left wing, led 20,000 households, a total of 20 Etoke (1,000 households) to Ningxia to kill and plunder.
The Ningxia military town suddenly burst into smoke, and the Ming army was weak in field warfare, so it could only trap the larger city and let the Tashhai troops kill and plunder the villages and towns and fortresses.
Shen Yikui led a few of his subordinates from Yansui into Ningxia, but along the way, he saw ruins and broken walls, corpses all over the ground, but the Mongols did not see a single one.
"It's really strange, in the past we didn't want to see the Mongols, but we always could see them, and now we sincerely want to meet the Mongols, but we haven't seen them all the way." Shen Yikui said to his subordinates with a smile.
"What the second master said is that when we fought with the Mongols in the past, we didn't want to meet the Mongols, and we always ran into them when we went out of the city, but now we want to cooperate with them, but we can't see them anyway." Shen Yikui's subordinates also replied with a smile.
When Shen Yikui and his subordinates were still laughing to themselves, not beware of the dust flying high in the distance and the ground shaking, dozens of Mongolian cavalrymen with sabers rushed to Shen Yikui and the others and surrounded them.
Shen Yikui's subordinates saw that the Mongols were surrounding him with swords, and they were shocked to draw their sabers one after another, and confronted the Mongols with great nervousness.
"Don't panic, don't forget our mission, Kuroko, raise the white flag." Seeing that his subordinates were a little nervous, Shen Yikui hurriedly spoke comfortingly, and then asked his subordinates to raise the white flag and signal to the Mongols that he and the others had no ill intentions and were here to discuss business.
"You are the Ming Army!?" A Mongolian knight saw that the Ming army saw his Mongolian cavalry and surrendered without saying a word, and he looked down on Shen Yikui and others in his heart, so he asked Shen Yikui and others with a contemptuous smile.
Obviously, these Mongols have been going south to the Ming Dynasty for many years to plunder, and they are very familiar with the business, so the Chinese is also very good, they can understand and speak Chinese.
Shen Yikui and the others naturally understood the words of the Mongols, so Shen Yikui clenched his fists and bowed his hands, first gave a salute, and then replied: "We used to be the Ming army, but now we have rebelled, but we are no longer the Ming army." ”
"Oh, really?" The Mongolian knight first smiled slightly, and then continued: "You are not a Ming army, but also a Ming man, it just so happens that there is a shortage of Han slaves on our grassland, so I will arrest you, and you will listen well, if you are obediently captured, you can be spared death, if you dare to resist, I will kill you all." ”
When the rest of the Mongol knights heard this, they all played with their sabers and shouted, "Han dog, you have no ears, tell you to surrender quickly, or I will kill you." ”
"Don't be busy, don't be busy, this hero of the grassland, I can't follow you back to the grassland to be a slave, because I have a great wealth to give you, if I am captured by you, this great wealth will be gone." God replied in a moment's time.
"What rich? Speak to me. The Mongolian knight asked.
"Please take me to your superiors, and I will tell your superiors. If you can introduce me, this is just a small meaning, and I will thank you for it later. When he had finished speaking, he glanced at his men.
His men understood, so they took out the gold and silver goods from their bosoms and distributed them to the Mongol knights around them.
"Heroes, if you take me to see your superiors, there will be gold and silver goods to be presented later, if you arrest us and go to be slaves, there will be no more gold and silver goods to earn, please think twice." Shen Yikui smiled and persuaded.
"If I introduce you to you, there is still any treasure to be gained?" A Mongolian knight looked at the gold and silver jewels in his hand and asked with a glass of water.
Shen Yikui smiled slightly: "Sure enough." ”
"Okay, remove their weapons and take them to the Grand Governor." The Mongolian knight's eyes lit up with money, and he said with a smile on his face.
So the other Mongol knights removed the weapons of Shen Yikui and others, led them all the way, and went straight to the tent of the central army on the left wing of the Mongols.
When they arrived at the big tent of the Chinese army, the Mongolian knight went straight to Tash to send a poster letter, and when Tashhai agreed to meet Shen Yikui, the Mongolian knight said to Shen Yikui: "Go, our left wing chief Tashhai is in the big tent, you can go and see him." ”
"I'm sorry for you." God Yikui thanked.
"Remember to give me the rest of the money." The Mongolian knight laughed.
"Definitely, definitely." God agreed.
When Shen Yikui was taken to the big tent of Tashhai, Na Tashhai rubbed the Han woman he had just captured, and asked Shen Yikui with a big smile: "You wait for the Han dog, what wealth can you give us?" Say, "If you don't hear what you say, I'll kill you." ”
"Yes, Chief, dare to ask why you are here?" Shen Yikui said yes, and then asked himself.
"Needless to say, it is natural to rob the children of your Han people to enjoy the jade silk." Tashhai replied in a cold voice.
"Do you think Ningxia and Gansu are rich?" Shen Yikui asked with a smile.
"Rich! It's only slightly stronger than our grassland. Tashhai replied with a frown.
"That's nature, the richest place in my Ming Dynasty is Jiangnan, but the heroes of Mongolia can't go that far. And there is a place in our Yansui that is very rich, almost comparable to Jiangnan. Shen Yikui laughed.
