The Tangnu Ulianghai region was originally the territory of the Tohuite Ministry, and these people had close contacts with Tsarist Russia, that is, the Rakshasa State, and often sent envoys to each other.

Since Xia Wanchun conquered Tangnu and set up Wuliang Province, many of the scattered Mongols joined Jingbei Province, and many more fled to Tsarist Russia and Dzungaria.

They had an alliance with these two khanates, and in the thirteenth year of Chongzhen, the sons of Ombu Erdeni and Khalkha Chechen Khan Shuolei, Zasaktu Khan Subati and Tushetu Khan Gunbu, as well as Gushi Khan of Oirat and Shute Khanate, Turghut and Batur Huntaiji of Orlek Dzungar Khanate, met together in Tarbagatai,

The Khalkha Oirat Code was developed.

This code is also interesting because it stipulates that all the subjects of the Khanate must practice Tibetan Esoteric Buddhism. Under the banner of a trumpet, they want to unite with each other.

In the past, when the Tuohui Special Department was prosperous, their territory was very large, and they directly bordered the Ming Dynasty on the nine sides of Shaanxi, Gansu, and Gansu. In order to open the horse market in exchange for grain and iron tools from the Central Plains, this tribe went south several times to force the Ming Dynasty to open the market.

Now the Ming Dynasty and Tsarist Russia directly went to war, happy to the nearby Mongolian tribes, these people because of the emergence and expansion of Jingbei Province, have regarded the Ming Dynasty as a flood beast, and now with Tsarist Russia as the leading brother, they finally dare to jump out and declare war with the Ming Dynasty.

"The Han people are encroaching on the steppe faster than any snowstorm, and we Mongolians have almost no place to put horses."

"What's even more hateful is that those untouchables, regardless of the pride of their ancestors, threw themselves into the arms of the Han people, like cubs still eating goat's milk."

"We must kill back, take back our pastures, and cut off the heads of Han Chinese and traitors."

...

The demons in the big tent danced wildly, and a burly, taciturn man walked out silently, and behind him Chechen Khan Shuolei noticed him and shouted loudly: "Sebuteng, why don't you join us, are you afraid of the Han people?" ”

The people around laughed, and in their opinion, it was a shameful act to be afraid of the Han people who had entered the grassland. But they seem to have forgotten that the Han people who have taken the initiative to enter the grassland for thousands of years can always bring them a hundred years of pain.

Sebuteng was the leader of the Bahrain tribe, and they defected to the Manchus early on, and later they were the worst beaten. Not to mention that the main force died in Shandong, it was also driven out of Monan by the Jingbei Army and fled to the deserted Mobei.

Ignoring the taunts of the Chechen Khan, Sebuteng came outside the tent and whispered: "Your feared Cossack head is still hanging on the spear, and you are about to challenge the army of the Ming Dynasty, what a group of stupid and ignorant people. ”

Unlike these people from the depths of Mongolia, Sebuteng personally participated in the war after entering the customs, and even fought against the Sichuan soldiers in the Xuanfu of Datong.

The Han people are not strong to a certain point, where is there to take the initiative to go out of the customs, now Datong Xuanfu is no longer a border, and even the entire Monan has been annexed by Jingbei Province. This suddenly rising army was at the height of the limelight, and its momentum was like a rainbow. At this time, challenge them where they can eat any good fruit.

Sebuteng drew the cavalry of the Bahrain division and drove all the way west, and the others did not care at all. The Bahrain tribe is no longer the powerful tribe it was at the beginning, there is no more than him, and there is no less than him.

Marching in the grassland, the last thing you are afraid of is a surprise attack, and it looks flat, and you don't know how to hit the ambush if you want to.

Xia Wanchun rode on the horse, looking at the cavalry under his command, the sound of horses' hooves hitting the ground like a drumbeat, and the neighing of the war horses continued. Liu Zongbei saw him staring at the cavalry, just because he disliked the lack of cavalry, and said with a smile: "The prince led us to open up Jingbei, and the entire Monan is our place to raise horses, and we will never worry about the lack of cavalry in the future." ”

Xia Wanchun suddenly smiled and said: "The soldiers are not expensive, these cavalry are enough, I remember an incident from before." ”

When the generals heard this, they all surrounded him, and Xia Wanchun said with a smile: "When the prince defeated Hong Chengchou in Suzhou, we chased and killed all the way and captured a war horse in Changzhou Mansion. At that time, I was overjoyed, and hurriedly asked my subordinates to ride horses to chase, who knew that the original soldiers were all Wu people, not good at riding. Everyone fell and their noses were bruised and their faces were swollen, but they fell behind others. ”

After hearing this, the generals all laughed awkwardly, Xia Wanchun could say with a smile on this matter, they didn't dare to laugh, otherwise wouldn't they slap Xiangxi Hou in the face.

Xia Wanchun didn't care, and continued: "Later, we conquered Jinling, and the prince established an army in Jinling, and made me the commander of the Fengzi battalion. At that time, we only had 5,000 horses, and all our net worth added up to so much, even the prince's own soldiers did not have horses to ride, but they formed a Fengzi battalion. It's because we won the battle, and we can't catch up with the retreating Qing soldiers, and it's embarrassing to think about the old things. ”

Liu Zongbei had a faint smile on his face, and said in a condensed voice: "Now that there is a desert, there are as many horses as you want, and there is no shortage of cavalry. ”

"If it is not a last resort, who doesn't want their children and grandchildren and family members to be able to enjoy this peaceful world, only we can give them, and other tribes can't."

As soon as Xia Wanchun's words fell, he rode in the distance, and took a closer look at the Mongolian scouts sent out.

The risk of spying on military intelligence in Mobei is 10,000 times greater than that of the Central Plains, because the land here is vast and sparsely populated, and many places are not inhabited at all, so it is very difficult to hide and disguise.

The scout's Chinese was not very good, and he said with a big tongue: "General, you have come from the north, and a lot of soldiers and horses have come. ”

Xia Wanchun's face turned cold, and he said: "Liu Zongbei, you protect the baggage troops behind, and the others will form a formation with me to meet the enemy." ”

This time it was not only the Rakshasas who returned, but also many familiar enemies, groups of Mongols. The pastures of these people were constantly encroached upon, and unlike the previous Northern Expedition of the Han Army, this time it was really eaten. The Han people built stone cities on the grassland, set up guards, and gathered herdsmen, which was simply the way for them to survive.

Moreover, since the establishment of Jingbei, a steady stream of merchants brought agricultural products and iron tools, and the herdsmen who were holding the iron pot and weeping bitterly were willing to fight to the death for the Ming Dynasty.

At the end of May of the third year of Jing You, when the eyes of all Ming officials were fixed on Jinzhou in eastern Liaodong, Xia Wanchun, Marquis of Xiangxi, broke the Mongol coalition army in Mobei, beheaded 30,000 prisoners, and killed two Khan kings. They were the king of Altan and the Khan of Chechnya.

The Mongols took the initiative to meet the battle when they should not have fought a decisive battle, but the Rakshasas, whom they believed to be a strong reinforcement, were vulnerable.

Together with the battle, Qi Jiguang's car formation once again shined, this kind of formation was put on the grassland, and the power increased several times, whether it was a firearm or an artillery bombardment in the distance, it seemed to get twice the result with half the effort.

No wonder Hou Xuanyan once said to his subordinates with a smile: "What Qi Shao has kept is enough for us to be of infinite use, at least in a hundred years, the playing style is unparalleled." ”

During the Northern Expedition, the Mandarin Duck Formation became the watchman of the Northern Expeditionary Army, and this time it was the turn of the car formation.

Rao is so, the focus of the government and the opposition is still on Liaodong, this is an underestimated victory, the court rewarded the meritorious ministers, and then put the focus on the transportation construction of Mobei.

Jinling City, in the palace, Hou Xuanyan took his family to enjoy the flowers in the courtyard.

Hou Xuanyan, who was sitting in the pavilion, looked in a very good mood, his daughter looked a little raw in his arms, and the child was just sensible, so he was out on the expedition, so he was naturally not particularly intimate.

Hou Xuanyan hugged his daughter and said to his younger siblings: "Brother Duan'er has made great contributions again, this time your Xia family can be regarded as a glorious lintel." ”

Xia Shuji's husband, who was also her brother, died early, leaving this widow to serve her in-laws, and suffered a lot when the Qing soldiers went south. In the past few years, life has become better, and Xia Shuji has also regained the vitality of a talented woman in the past.

Xia Shuji covered his mouth and chuckled, with a happy face and a little pride, but said softly: "What did uncle say, Brother Duan'er's life is their Xia family's business, and a slave who marries into the Hou Mansion is a member of the Hou family." ”

Hou Xuanyan pursed his lips and lowered his head to tease his daughter: "Little Peach, when you grow up in the future, I don't know whose family it is." ”

"I'm from the nurse's family." After thinking about it carefully, Little Peach said in a milky voice. The surrounding ladies were amused by this childlike scene, and they held their stomachs and laughed.

Hou Xuanyan couldn't cry or laugh, and said angrily: "This is really a mother with milk, this little girl has no conscience when she grows up, and she is counting on her to be filial to his father." ”

At this time, Qingluan ran over, gasped and said, "There's an official from outside, I want to see the prince." ”

Hou Xuanyan got up and handed his daughter out, and asked as he walked, "What kind of official is it?" ”

"The slave doesn't know."

Hou Xuanyan only thought it was a Liaodong war report, and hurriedly walked out, but saw that it was Qin Muyun from the Ministry of Rites.

The Ministry of Rites is an idle yamen, especially after the abolition of Cheng Zhu Lixue's imperial examination role, a series of red tape has also been naturally canceled.

After Qin Muyun saw him, he got up and said with a smile: "Lord Wang." ”

Hou Xuanyan got along with his subordinates in the army, and he had always been very relaxed, sat on the chair and said, "It's you kid, what's the matter that you are in a hurry to find me?" ”

"Japan's Tokugawa Iemitsu is coming to Jinling next month, and he has already sent us a recital. Miss Ma of the celebrant couldn't make up her mind, so let me ask the prince. ”

"Yes, Japan is our little brother, the so-called Han and Japanese family, his soldiers are shedding blood for us in Korea, give me a good reception." Hou Xuanyan shouted affectionately, but he always kept talking between the lines, and Qin Muyun knew that the prince didn't seem to have a good impression of this island country.

However, he didn't think it was strange, because the Ming Dynasty had always been attacked by the Japanese invaders, which could be said to be a piece of the Ming Dynasty's heart.

If it weren't for the Tokugawa shogunate's lockdown decree, these wouldn't have known how long they would have gotten into trouble. Of course, there is also the credit of Zheng Zhilong, this pirate leader became an official of the Ming Dynasty, and ordinary little pirates no longer dare to pretend to be a widow to brush his tiger whiskers.

"Lord Shangshu asked me to ask the prince, what specifications do we have to receive him?" Qin Muyun asked.

Hou Xuanyan replied without thinking: "This still needs to be asked, of course, it is a gift from the lord of the vassal state, he is the orthodox king of Japan that we canonized." As for the emperor, even if Tokugawa Iemitsu himself admits it, it is useless, he is just an ordinary Japanese man, and we don't care what the Japanese worship as kings, we only look at who we canonize. I canonized him, and he was the king of Japan even if all the Japanese people in Japan objected; I didn't canonize him, even if the entire Japanese people supported him, he was just a commoner. ”

"Xiaguan understands."

After Qin Muyun left, Hou Xuanyan sighed, and the thought of the situation in North Korea gave him a headache.

Sukh Saha took a traitor Daniel Zhang to defeat the Wu soldiers who landed in Korea, and how could they drag it to the rear of Jiannu in this way, let alone help the Liao conquest.

According to the original plan, Hou Xuanyan was to be surrounded on three sides, but now that the Jingbei army has reached the Rakshasa country, the Japanese were pressed on the seashore and barely driven out by the artillery fire of the sailors. The main force of the expedition to Liao has changed from three to one, and the situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and sure enough, the plan cannot catch up with the changes.

If there is no encirclement on both sides, with the nearly 300,000 troops of Liao, it is okay to want to pacify Jiannu, but it will take more time. Hou Xuanyan herself is fine, Ma Lingyao frowned at this matter, I don't know how many pens she has bitten, but she doesn't know anything about military affairs, so she can only be in a hurry.

Hou Xuanyan returned to the inner courtyard with a heart, he was almost not at home, and he didn't know the way in the deep courtyard, so he simply walked around and enjoyed his backyard.

The courtyard is lush and green, with birds singing and flowers, and it has a very Jiangnan charm. Hou Xuanyan walked and walked, but his heart calmed down, anyway, it was a few months, why was he so anxious.

Is that throne too tempting? Hou Xuanyan thinks no, although he is not the emperor now, he is better than the emperor. If you really sit in that position, there will be no increase in power, but more shackles. In the final analysis, it was still the hatred for Manchurian Jiannu, which made him eager to immediately correct those butchers whose hands were covered with blood. Let them live three more months under the torture of artillery fire, and I don't believe that they will still be able to eat and sleep well.

Hou Xuanyan breathed a long sigh of relief, and looked up to see a girl in front of him with a prominent figure, beautiful eyebrows and eyes, and a temperament like a cloud, who was twisting her waist and stretching her arms, doing some pleasing movements.

Hou Xuanyan recognized it as his original wife Gu Ling'er, and she remembered what dance she learned from Bian Yujing before, but she didn't expect that this rich daughter really had that perseverance.

You must know that everyone in this era of dancers is a poor child who sells himself to the Qinglou, and there is no way to learn a skill to entertain people and make it enjoyable and commentable.

Gu Ling'er was born the daughter of a wealthy family, and she was willing to endure hardships and practice dance, it seems that she is really fascinated by this.

Hou Xuanyan saw that she was wearing an emerald green silk shirt, and the lower body was Yanju's bell bottoms, showing her beautiful posture. Suddenly tiptoeing, twisting the willow waist, the slender jade legs tiptoe and bouncing, the soft leg lines are full of elasticity, the petite figure keeps flying in the pavilion, and the skills at a young age are still good.

Hou Xuanyan quietly walked into the pavilion, the two maids Xiaoxiao and Ji'er were waiting with melon seeds next to them, and after seeing him, they came up with a pair of murder weapons and hugged Hou Xuanyan in surprise and hugged him to the seat.

Gu Ling'er's face was flushed, her panting voice was soft and soft, and a layer of fragrant sweat appeared on her pretty face, and she said, "Why did my husband come here?" ”

It turned out that this place was a secluded place in the inner courtyard of the palace, Gu Ling'er specially chose this place to practice dancing, he didn't know that Hou Xuanyan was wandering around, and he thought that his husband had heard about it to stop him from learning dance.

Hou Xuanyan doesn't have this idea, how good it is to learn dance, it's okay to keep fit, and you can solve it in the future... Solve a lot of physical problems.

Gu Ling'er has reached the girlhood, she is dressed up to practice dancing, she looks a little charming, the deer in her heart jumps lightly, pretending to be bold and smiling at him, and said: "Husband, Sister Saisai said that people have a very high talent for learning dance, do you agree with me to learn dance?" ”

"Agreed, hahaha, of course agreed... Haha" Hou Xuanyan laughed, and then naturally pulled her little hand and held her in his arms.

Gu Ling'er was raised by him, of course, it is not very big now, and it will always be big in the future at that time. In his arms was his original partner, Hou Xuanyan said softly: "Learning to dance is not a simple matter, you have to do what you can, people with such high talent don't need to work very hard." ”

Gu Ling'er straightened her legs, frowned and said, "People's legs are a little long, and it takes a lot of effort to do a lot of movements." ”

Hou Xuanyan regarded it as a treasure, stroked it and said with a smile: "Ling'er, you have a thin waist and long legs, and you look as good as dancing when you go there, where is there any dislike for your long legs." ”

Seeing his strange expression, the two maids couldn't help blushing when they looked down, and took a sip and pulled the old man to put out the fire, leaving Gu Ling'er alone with her head sideways and couldn't understand.
