"Is the time for action confirmed?"

"It's confirmed, it's in the early morning of the fifth day!"

"How many men are the other side going to deploy?"

"It's uncertain at this time, but according to the members of our remaining liaison officers, more than 10,000 warriors have gathered among the other tribes these days!"

"Good!! Well done! ”

"But the weapons and equipment requested by the other party, should we give them? When to give? Where to give? ”

"Tell them that as long as they send troops to the beach, our weapons and equipment will be in place immediately!!"

"Understood, then I'll go back and contact them!"

"Okay, the sooner the better, but remember to be safe!"

"Yes!!"

In a trade bazaar that seemed to be nothing more than a dozen surrounding tribes trading, two sneaky people quietly conversed with each other, as if there were countless conspiracies.

Suddenly, the person who walked out of the gloomy felt tent first revealed a flaw, and a familiar face appeared at first glance, but it was Cao Yi, a longitudinal and horizontal family sent by the Hongmen guards to look for the Jurchen Yehe tribe in the vast mountains and wilderness.

In this way, the content of the conversation between him and another unknown person before was almost solved, and it seemed that this time he sent the Jurchen Yehebu, Cao Yi's harvest was not small, and the purpose of their envoy had been achieved.

Not long after Cao Yi left, behind the felt tent he came out, the member of the outer guard who had spoken to him had slipped out in smart clothes, and after seeing that there was nothing wrong with the four directions, he took the horse tied to the back of the tent and rushed out of the market, heading into the distance.

Not long after, the person in charge of Northeast Affairs of the Foreign Guard, who was far away in Phoenix City, received this urgent report, and while reporting the meritorious service made by his fellow foreign guards to Wu Jie of the Military Department, he did not forget to report it back to Li Tianyang on Dayuan Island through carrier pigeons.

By the time Li Tianyang learned of the news, only three days had passed, and in terms of the transportation channels in the current era, it was evident that the Hongmen intelligence transmission system had reached an incredible level under the operation of these years.

"I have contacted the Yitong tribe, the largest tribe of Ye He, and persuaded the other party to mobilize the tribe of Ye He who has not returned to the Ai Xinjue Luo clan to resist the rule of the Great Qing Ai Xinjue Luo clan."

"As the price of the Yehe tribe's troops, in the future, Hongmen needs to promise that the territory around the Yehe River and Yitong River in the northeast is owned by the Yehe tribe, and Hongmen must not be violated without reason."

"And Hongmen needs to provide tens of thousands of sets of weapons and equipment for the Yehe armed army to arm the Yehe warriors, and at the same time, they must not interfere with the annexation of other Jurchen tribes by the Yehe tribe after the war, nor be hostile or attack the Yehe tribe after the war!"

“……”

For the sake of a Yehe department's troops, it seems that Cao Yi, the so-called Zongheng family, consumes a lot of energy and energy, of course, it is Hongmen who pays more, all kinds of weapons and equipment, post-war war distribution, etc., after Cao Yi's mouth, it has been divided out countless times, which is really a bit bold.

However, for Li Tianyang and Hongmen, they can afford to pay for some material supplies, as well as those territories that have no shadow at all, as long as they can say that the Jurchen Yehe Department can send troops and start to disintegrate the Qing Dynasty from the inside, then for them Hongmen, the gain is far greater than the pay.

Compared with the set of buying the natives, Li Tianyang is extremely open to the treatment of the Jurchens, originally, there are only interests between the country, there is no friendship, although Hongmen is not the title of the country now, but now they can come to the foreground and wrestle with the powerful Qing people, which is enough to prove that they Hongmen have that qualification.

Therefore, even if the Hongmen and the Yehebu Jurchens have reached the so-called consensus and conditions now, when the interests of the Hongmen and Yehebu conflict, Li Tianyang is afraid that he will not have the slightest mercy, or any faithful posture, and when it is time to make a move, he must take action immediately.

"Send a message to Bai Yushan and let them get ready for battle!"

Li Tianyang came back to his senses, turned his head and called a guard to give him an order.

At this time, the main force of the Qing army, led by Prince Dolgon, was still mired in the hills around Gongchangling, and every time it took a step forward, it had to pay a heavy price and a long period of repeated entanglement.

"This group of Han people is really difficult, in this deep mountain and old forest, like a group of monkeys, popping up from time to time, and then immediately disappearing into the dense forest, it is impossible to prevent it!!"

"Aren't they tired?"

In this era, there may be an army that is born with this talent, but there has never been an army like the Hongtang army, which regards it as an important subject, and focuses on training and training the officers and men under its command.

At the same time, the requirement of 80 miles a day march required by the Hongtang army's infantry army made the Hongtang army have enough confidence to maintain a certain combat effectiveness in the dense forest for a long time.

Although the Jurchens have lived in the northeast since they were children, and they have not hunted and fought in the jungle, but like Hongtang is now in the team, even if the forest is covered with knee-deep snow, they can walk and shuttle quickly, elusive and tireless actions, and their Qing army is also proud of itself.

This is still in the early days of the Hongtang army was not familiar with the heavy snow, after experiencing a lot of adaptation in the heavy snow, as the Hongtang army began to learn to use sleds, skis, and after becoming proficient, it was a headache for the Qing people.

In this icy and snowy land, it is a luxury for the Qing people to want to pursue in close combat, their most mobile war horses, running in the snow, consume several times their physical strength in ordinary weather, often run less than three miles, the war horses are already out of breath.

Not to mention the soldiers of their Qing army, 'Alas, in the case of heavy snow blocking the mountains, even if they are familiar with the heavy snowy weather, they can't last long in the snow, otherwise they will become a frozen corpse in the snow due to problems such as cold entering the body and clothes not moisturizing.

On the other hand, the soldiers of the Hongtang army, a snow boot lined with vulcanized rubber is enough to ensure the dryness of their torsos below the waist, maintain a lot of physical strength and energy of the soldiers, plus the thick warm cotton clothes, animal skins, medicine and wine wrapped outside, but it can also ensure the necessary supplies and cold protection for the soldiers in the field battle.

Under the advantages of the other, the harm and impact of the extremely cold weather on the soldiers on both sides are different, but it also allows the well-prepared Hongtang Shang Kexi to persist until now.
