Three days later, when we assembled in the Black Forest, the battle damage was almost negligible, but the results were outstanding!

Four teams of men and horses killed more than 335,000 cattle, sheep and horses, and wiped out more than 40,000 people of childbearing age in the Black Carboniferous Department. Most people did not resist this desperate order, and even carried it out very happily!

Because the steppe people also behaved the same way when they arrived in the Central Plains. Today, we just pay back their actions yesterday!

Behind us, a relatively large cavalry contingent has also begun to follow, whether it is the cavalry of the Black Carboniferous Department or not, our behavior has caused panic among the steppe tribes. For their own safety, they began to intensify armed sentinel patrols within their borders.

In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, I ordered the whole army to retreat. And the tracking troops behind us hung us so far away. It won't have any real impact on us, but it's not good to be watched like this.

So, I ordered the whole army to rush to the heights, and let the scorching musketeers shoot at each other in one round!

The projectile carried the roar of gunfire, revealing a strong warning meaning. Most of the tracking units retreated. Only one squad was still following.

"That's a spies from the Tumut Ministry!" Laxon said.

There was a strange smile on my face, we are now a member of the Tumut Army!

So I asked Abreu to take one man with him, and the two of them rode to the detachment of Tumut spies, approached in full view, said something, and left.

Actually, I asked him to go over and say: "The task assigned by the Great Khan of Altan has been completed!"

The captain of the detachment on the opposite side did not dare to make a mistake, so he had to make promises. Abreu and the two swaggered back to their team.

I gave Abreu a thumbs up and said, "Good job!" Abreu grinned.

The whole army began to withdraw at full speed, of course, not the same way, but ran west for a while, and saw that there was no more tracking, so they went south with all their might! Target - Zhangjiakou.

This way was unhurried, because there were still four days left in the agreed time with Ye Sizhong, and the journey was only three days. I deliberately stepped up my cultivation on the road, and the ape style, batwing style, and wolf gaze kept blessing all the time, and slowly even became a habit.

This kind of bumpy riding and physical fatigue environment is the best time to improve my physical skills, and I am almost hungry to absorb every bit of room for improvement, so that I can improve as much as possible!

Because after going back, there will inevitably be two more big battles!

All the way south, the grassland gradually receded, while the trees gradually grew, and the temperature gradually rose! When I arrived near Xuanhua, north of Zhangjiakou, I ordered the whole army to take off their leather clothes and change into their original thin military uniforms.

Suddenly, the whole body was a lot more relaxed. Those steppe people are wrapped in leather clothes all day long, and it is really a kind of torture!

When they arrived at the north gate, they reported that the officers and soldiers defending the city had already received an order to immediately open and close the way. I ordered the team to camp five miles outside the city, entered the city with a few henchmen, and went straight to the city guard's mansion.

When I arrived at the door, two people were waiting at the door, and I looked at it, it was none other than Ye Sizhong, who was dividing my troops with me! He has already returned, and the person next to him seems to have seen him at last year's annual meeting, and it should be He Yugang, the chief official of Zhangjiakou.

When the two of them saw me coming, they greeted me with a laugh, and I also greeted the guests with a smile, bowed to He Yugang, and hugged Ye Sizhong tightly!

Ye Sizhong smiled: "Qilan! I knew you were going to be fine! Hahahaha! ”

I also smiled and said, "Good people don't live long, and disasters will last for thousands of years!"

The people around laughed together and crowded into the castle guard's mansion.

The house had already prepared a banquet, and when we sat down, the cold dishes had already been served, and the hot dishes had not yet risen. I thanked him, and said to He Yugang: "Lord City Guard, those soldiers outside the city have been working hard all the way on saddle horses and fought bravely, and I hope to take care of them!"

He Yugang laughed and said, "Qilan rest assured, the wine, meat, melons and fruits have been sent out of the city!"

Again, I thank you.

Because we have something to say, we have three people at a table of wine, and the nine ghosts Zhengxiao, No Regrets and others are sitting at the big table outside with the others.

After sitting down, Ye Sizhong, who was sitting in the main seat, said: "Brother He, please mention this first cup first!"

He Yu hurriedly said humbly: "That's absolutely impossible!" Although I am a few years older, Sizhong and Qilan have made great contributions, and their official positions are high, so I shouldn't be the first in any case! ”

I smiled and said: "There is a way to be a guest, and a way is to be respected, Brother He is absolutely appropriate to mention it first!"

Ye Sizhong also smiled: "Exactly!"

He Yugang said two more words of humility, and then stood up and raised his glass and said: "Inherit the saint's heavenly might, the first assistant is wise, Qi Dudu is decided, and the two virtuous brothers are wise and brave, and make new contributions!" This first cup, for the brother will pay tribute to the two heroes! ”

We hurriedly raised our glasses and drank them all.

After sandwiching two chopsticks and dishes, Ye Sizhong stood up again and took the cup and said, "This second cup, I will be ahead of Qilan!"

We clapped our hands and laughed together.

Ye Sizhong said: "I went north this time, thanks to the blessing of Brother Lan Xian, I took a simple road, and it took ten days to go back and forth, and I went to the Longtai Golden Tent of the Tumut Department to burn and kill for a while, leaving some items from the Black Carboniferous Department, and then withdrew!" In so many years, this is the most interesting and relieving one! ”

After speaking, he raised his glass and said: "The second glass, I wish this battle a complete victory!"

We raise our glasses again and drink them all!

After eating two more bites of food, it was time for me to toast, so I raised my glass and said, "The two brothers are too famous!" The younger brother went north this time, and he also went to the Longtai Golden Horde of the Black Carboniferous Department to burn and kill for a while, and at the end he did something else, so he came back late, and I hope the two brothers will forgive! After saying that, they drank it all first, and the two of them drank it too.

Everyone was talking happily about this matter, and Ye Sizhong asked with a smile: "Qilan, you have always had the most ghost ideas, tell me what you have done?" Which prairie girl did you fall in love with? ”

With that, the two of them looked at each other and laughed. I smiled, but I didn't speak, and when the two of them saw this, they had three cups of yellow soup in their stomachs, and they didn't give up, pestering me to say.

I couldn't help it, so I told me about subduing Lakshin, finding the Longtai Golden Horde, and attacking and dispersing the population of my belongings, and at the end, I briefly talked about sending troops everywhere to exterminate the cattle and sheep of the Black Carboniferous Tribe, as well as the population of the tribe above the wheels. It's not right or wrong, but it's certainly not a good thing, so I'm going to keep it simple.

But when I finished speaking, the room was quiet, and I could almost hear a pin dropping. Ye Sizhong and He Yugang looked at me dumbfounded, and the three maids who poured wine and served were even more frightened!

After a long time, Ye Sizhong picked up the wine glass and said to me: "I remember that Qilan said that he is willing to give up the name of one person for thirty years of peace in the north!" Walk the talk, true husband! Brother respects you on behalf of the people of the Ming Dynasty! ”

He Yugang also hurriedly got up and raised his glass, and the three of us drank it all!

The atmosphere was warm again, and the night was over.

The next day, we received a report from Jizhou that the Black Carboniferous Department and the Tumut Department had received a tip-off that they had become suspicious of each other, cut off contact with each other, and set up camp for fifty miles. We are in contact with the Tumut Ministry to jointly attack the Black Carboniferous Ministry!

This is very exciting news! The Black Carboniferous Ministry must have been resentful, and the Tumerite Ministry was not necessarily suspicious, but in this case, they simply did not have the time or opportunity to verify the facts.

It is not even ruled out that the Tumut Ministry has the idea of making mistakes and defeating the Black Carboniferous Ministry in one fell swoop, which is not friend or foe, and temporary peace and companionship!

Qi Dudu finally pointed out that the two of us should camp tightly, guard the enemy's rear road, and not act rashly.

Ye Sizhong and I agreed that the two of us would lead the army separately and camp on the east and west sides of the city to guard the intersection, and sentinels were also sent to the top of the mountain.

The next day, information was received that the Black Carboniferous Department had begun to maneuver in a northwesterly direction, near the east of the Tumut Division. We are squeezed from the three directions of Jizhou, Jinzhou and Liaodong to the Black Carboniferous.

The two divisions of the Black and the Earth still maintain restraint and have not yet confronted each other.

On the night of the third day, a group of cavalry of the "Tumut Division" crossed the cordon on both sides and asked to find a lost war horse, but the scout detachment of the Black Carboniferous Department did not allow it, and the two sides escalated from a verbal conflict to a physical conflict, and finally the sword and soldier met each other, and the three detachments of the Black Carboniferous Scout were annihilated, and the rest fled back.

On the fourth day, the intelligence said that the Black Carboniferous Department sent personnel to the door to ask for an explanation, and was annihilated by the "Tumut Department" that was hidden halfway. The Black Carboniferous Department no longer restrained itself and sent troops to raid the left battalion of the Tumut Division, and skirmishes began on both sides!

In the afternoon of the same day, our army adopted the tactics of intensive advance to further squeeze the space of the Black Carboniferous Department. The Black Carboniferous Department had no intention of fighting and retreated north to the area of Xiaojin Mountain.

That night, a group of cavalry of the "Black Carboniferous Division" attacked the grain and grass camp of the Tumut Division! The grain and grass were filled with iron carts, but the carts were poured with oil, and the fire was miserable.

On the morning of the fifth day, the Tumut troops sent troops and confronted the Black Carboniferous Department at the foot of Xiaojin Mountain, leaving more than 2,000 corpses on both sides, and each retreated.

At this point, the Black Carboniferous Ministry and the Tumut Department have made a real fire, and there is no need for us to add fuel to the fire. In the next three days, there were five or six small and medium-sized encounters in a row! We are hanging east of the Black Carboniferous Department, planning for the offensive of the Tumut Department!

Qi Dudu brought another secret order, and the two of us "moved with the camera to expand the results of the battle." ”

I received the order and immediately hurried to Ye Sizhong's place. Ye Sizhong was waiting for me, and when he saw me coming, he immediately let me go to his tent.

The two of us sat opposite each other, and Ye Sizhong asked, "Qilan, what kind of camera method do you say this camera moves?"

I smiled and said, "Then naturally who is weak!"

Ye Sizhong frowned and said, "Who is weak to help whom?"

I approached and said, "The Tumut division is attacked from three sides and is in a weak position, so we can pretend to be reinforcements and threaten the rear army of the Tumut division from afar."

Ye Sizhong continued: "When the Tumut Department is chaotic and the Black Carboniferous Department takes the initiative to attack, we will turn around and run away, and when the two are fighting, we will ......."

"We'll come back and reap the benefits!" I said with a smile.

Ye Sizhong and I looked at each other and smiled, everything was silent.

The two of us packed up their own troops and horses, and the whole army, carrying the leather clothes of the Tatars, pulled out from Zhangjiakou and quietly advanced behind the Black Carboniferous Department and the Tumut Department......
