Guo Shijun borrowed a hundred cavalry from Li Guo, went out of the side wall, and went north of Longshou Mountain to find the station of the Hexi Governor's Mansion, but Li Zicheng received a message from Wang Anping from Shaanxi.

The message was forwarded from Xining, and it was very complicated.

In February, Chen Qiyu was inaugurated as the governor of the five provinces, and the governor of the military affairs of Shaanxi, Shanxi, Henan, Huguang, and Sichuan, specifically punished thieves. The thieves in Shaanxi and Shanxi were fiercely attacked and killed, and the main force of the thieves, Gao Yingxiang and Zhang Xianzhong, was surrounded in the mountains of southern Shaanxi and Huguang, Chen Qiyu from Shaanxi, Tang Hui from Huguang, Lu Xiang from Yunyang, Cao Wenzhao from Shanxi, and Zuo Liangyu from Henan, and were gathering to encircle and annihilate the thieves.

At the same time, Hong Chengchou also stepped up the strangulation of thieves near Guyuan, and the guerrilla Chang Huaide, Du Si He Sixian, Luo Shengchu, and Zhang Bojing, who participated in politics, were all active in northern Shaanxi......

Although the thieves in northern Shaanxi are tight, Li Zicheng is not worried about Xi'an and Talachi Fort across the mountain, but he is worried about the familiar names in Wang Anping's message.

Chen Qiyu, Zuo Liangyu, Lu Xiangsheng, Cao Wenzhao......

In order to exterminate the thieves, the court has made a bloody investment.

Li Zicheng stared at the marching map, and with a circle of his hands, the location of the thieves was basically fixed, that is, the area south of the Qinling Mountains and north of the bus, and he suddenly thought of a name he had seen - Chezhou Gorge!

At this time and place, "Li Zicheng" was surrounded by Chen Qiyu in the Carriage Gorge, and later bought off the people around Chen Qiyu through money, pretending to surrender, and then escaped from Ascension......

Now that there is no "Li Zicheng", I don't know if Gao Yingxiang and them can escape this hurdle.

What Li Zicheng doesn't understand is that the imperial court has been deeply troubled by thieves, and strangulation is commonplace, and Chen Qiyu himself has also killed a lot of thieves, why was he deceived by "Li Zicheng" so easily?

However, he didn't have the heart to pay attention to Chen Qiyu and Gao Yingxiang for the time being, let them continue to hide and seek in the mountains and forests, and he stationed troops in Guguan and Xi'an, which could be regarded as helping Gao Yingxiang and them from the side.

Li Zicheng immediately laughed, he really couldn't tell which side he wanted to stand on in the battle between the court and the thieves, and which side he hoped would win in the end.

If the imperial court wins, it will have its hands free, and perhaps Hong Chengchou and Chen Qiyu will have to deal with the Heavenly Mandate Army with all their might.

If the thieves win...... They seem to be inferior to the imperial court, at least the imperial court will not blatantly harm the people, and the thieves, wherever they go, continue to artificially expand the number of victims, perhaps this is the reason why the thieves are getting more and more powerful......

Forget it, the situation will not change with your thoughts, it is better to manage the Mandate of Heaven Army.

Chen Qiyu was appointed governor of the five provinces in February, and it was all in May, and the message had only reached his side, which was too lagging behind, and it seemed that the rangers were seriously undermanned.

When the Rangers were first formed, they were mainly used to find out enemy information near the army's station, but as the years passed, the Mandate of Heaven Army grew step by step, and the requirements for information have changed greatly.

Wang Anping not only had to investigate the enemy's situation for Guguan in the south and Jingyuan County in the north, but also shouldered the heavy task of listening to the movements of the imperial court.

It is necessary to expand the number of rangers and expand the scope of information collection by the rangers, so that they can truly become the spy organs of the Mandate of Heaven.

Li Zicheng's mind flashed, and the words "Hanqing Bureau" suddenly appeared, yes, it was called Hanqing Bureau, as the name of the spy agency.

He immediately replied to Wang Anping, ordering him to set up the Han Qing Bureau, with him as the director of the bureau, receiving the rank of a thousand households, and at the same time increasing the number of people, from the original 100 to 200 to 500, closely monitoring the movements of the Ming army, inquiring about the information of a large number of thieves, and if necessary, sending people to Shanxi, Henan, and even Beijing.

To increase manpower, you have to increase expenditure, and now the northern provinces are almost in a mess, and the trade route to Jingshi will obviously not be smooth, and Li Zicheng wants to sell luxury goods, and there is only one road in the south of the Yangtze River.

Li Zicheng sent another letter to Xining, encouraging Mao Ting, who was in the Shunfeng trading house, to trade more with the Yarkand Khanate in the west, even if the price of goods was cheaper, it was better than stocking at home.

After all this was arranged, Li Zicheng sent a long letter to Gao Yigong and Erdemutu.

Li Zicheng told Gao Yigong that after the battle, let a small number of cavalry carry cattle and sheep and other booty and return along the original road, while the main force of the tiger cavalry continued westward to the Juyanhai in the lower reaches of the Kaolai River to join Erdemutu, and then moved the nomadic tribes here to the east and settled in various pastures along the marching route.

After Erdemutu arrived at Heli Mountain, he handed over all the captures to the Heavenly Mandate Army stationed in Ganzhou and escorted them back to Liangzhou, and the wolf cavalry cut into the Qiulai River along the northwest direction, and joined the tiger cavalry at the Juyanhai Sea downstream.

His task was also to move some herdsmen eastward and establish settlements along Heli Mountain and Longshou Mountain.

Li Zicheng specially explained to the two that after entering the Qiulai River, the herdsmen here were not enemies of the tiger cavalry and the wolf cavalry, and as long as they obeyed the order to move east, they must not be embarrassed.

If they refuse to move east, or if they don't pay any attention to the tiger cavalry and the wolf cavalry, they will not open their eyes, and only God will know.

Li Zicheng did not wait long in Liangzhou, Guo Shijun sent a message that he had selected the address for the Hexi Governor's Palace, not far from the north of Longshou Mountain, about one hundred and twenty miles away from Shandan County, there is a road through Longshou Mountain that can go directly to Shandan County, which can be reached in one day by horse, as long as Li Zicheng agrees, he immediately let the Mongol prisoners of war start to build the city.

Li Zicheng unfolded the map of the march and found the approximate location of the Governor's Palace, feeling that it was too close to Shandan County, so that the future Dragon Capital City would be too far to the southwest, which was not conducive to controlling the entire Dragon Capital.

However, seeing the large desert on the marching map, he suddenly had a headache, this desert occupies almost half of the land of the Dragon Capital, and is in the center, only between the north and the Great Gobi, the Shengquan Mountain in the east, the Heli Mountain in the south, and the northern foot of Longshou Mountain, can it become a pasture.

If these three areas are connected and the desert is eliminated, the location of the Hexi Governor's Mansion chosen by Guo Shijun is really in the center of the Dragon Capital.

It is very close to Shandan County, at least the Dragon Capital City is easy to control, in case the location is not right, it can be changed in the future, and the Governor's Mansion and the Dragon Capital must be put into operation first.

Li Zicheng immediately replied to Guo Shijun, agreed with his opinion, and let him build the city with peace of mind.

At the end of May, the Mandate of Heaven Army in Ganzhou rushed to Liangzhou City with the capture of the wolf cavalry, and Li Zicheng did not look at the women and children, and left them all to Erdemutu, and the only things he could see were horses, cattle and sheep.

According to the prior agreement, the Mandate of Heaven Governor's Mansion can be divided into 30%, more than 200 war horses, and nearly 1,000 cattle and sheep, and the rest will be temporarily left in Liangzhou City, and when Erdemutu returns, they will be brought back to Datong Mountain Shaliucheng.

Subsequently, the cavalry of Gao Yigong's department also brought back a batch of booty, which was divided with the Governor's Mansion of the Heavenly Mandate Army according to the prior agreement, and it was another 200 war horses and hundreds of cattle and sheep.

Li Zicheng handed over all the more than 400 war horses to Li Guo, and all of them formed soldiers, Li Guo's 2,000 households, and the number of soldiers reached 16 hundred households.

Most of the hundreds of cattle were directly handed over to the immigrants in the Huizhou capital, so that they could be domesticated into farming cattle, more than 1,000 sheep, some of which were killed for meat, and most of them were sent back to Xining and raised on the gold and silver beach on the west coast.

To Li Zicheng's surprise, the tiger cavalry and the wolf cavalry were mainly Mongols, and according to the Mongols' temperament, they should be interested in strong men, but in this raid, they did not capture strong men, only young women and children under the age of seven or eight.

Maybe in order to avenge Erke Kongguoer Ezhe, he killed all the strong men here, it's a pity, the Mongols are really full of violence!

However, the war was provoked by Li Zicheng himself, and in order to divert the attention of the Mongols, he framed these Mongols out of nothing......

Li Zicheng did not delve into this matter, the dead were all Mongols, and the murderers were also Mongols, this should be their civil war, he almost forgot that he was the real executioner.

It's all gone, the dead Mongols, can only let God pray for them, for Li Zicheng, the tiger cavalry and the wolf cavalry have been victorious, and the Hexi Governor's Mansion will be guaranteed.

Li Zicheng packed up Liangzhou City and was about to go to the Hexi Governor's Mansion under construction, but the tiger cavalry and wolf cavalry sent back a message.

After their combination of soft and hard measures, the nomadic Erinqin and Gulu Daiqing tribes in the area of the Aolai River and Juyanhai were forced to bow down and become vassals, and after negotiation, the larger number of Erlinqin tribes continued to stay on both sides of the Aolai River, and after adding enough pastures, they agreed to settle down and start animal husbandry with Juyanhai as the center.

The Gulu Dai tribe was small in number, less than a thousand strong men, and they would all move eastward, dividing pastures along the north, east, and south of the desert, and if there was enough pasture, they would also settle down and raise herds.

Although he had long thought of such a result, Li Zicheng did not expect it to be so smooth, and the two divisions of Erlinqin and Gulu Daiqing not only surrendered to the Mandate of Heaven Army, but also ...... so quickly

Perhaps the killings made by the tiger cavalry and the wolf cavalry in the Alxa Right Banner were already known to the two departments, and in order to avoid the fate of the extinction of their tribes, they chose to surrender to the Mandate of Heaven Army......

Whether this is the result or not, Li Zicheng can only think so!

The successful establishment of the Hexi Governor's Mansion made Li Zicheng realize that a divided Mongolia was really a blessing for the Han people, and Lin Dan Khan died too timely.

Li Zicheng resisted the excitement in his heart, and immediately sent an order to Gao Yigong and Erdemutu to let them come to Liangzhou to recuperate, and the loot gathered in Liangzhou should also be disposed of.

Tiger cavalry and wolf cavalry, in front of foreign enemies, can be tiger wolves, but in their own hands, they can only be docile sheep!
