Indeed, as judged by the first, in the previous battles, the airship that had been floating on the north city of Jizhou played a big role, and the Mongolian army who wanted to sneak attack other parts of the city was discovered by the soldiers on the airship and passed on the news, so that the Ming army could arrange it in time and repel it.

Because of this, the Ming army, which had some inappropriate regard for the airship, now attaches great importance to this weapon to defend the city, even at night, there are people who have been guarding the top, always paying attention to the movements of the enemy army below.

And this time, they did have another harvest, and they found out earlier than the other side that there was a military horse coming towards the city, and it seemed that they were friends and foes, so they quickly passed on the information and sent it to Lin Lie and them in the command post.

"Do the Mongols still have reinforcements?" Lin Lie immediately frowned, his face uneasy. In the case of equal troops, they can still rely on Jizhou City to block the enemy's offensive, but once the enemy adds tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and then divides the troops to attack the city, their own defense will be a little stretched.

However, Lu Jin, although he also frowned, did not think that this was much of a threat: "I always feel that this is not like a reinforcement from the Warats. ”

"How so?" Lin Lie hurriedly asked.

"From their all-out siege of the city in the past few days, it can be seen that they have no intention of waiting for reinforcements, otherwise as long as they surround my Jizhou City, they don't have to attack so quickly, and they will only increase casualties." Lu Zhen analyzed: "And this road of soldiers and horses is coming from the northeast, which is not the territory of the Warat people, and it is impossible for them to have a large army coming from there." But Duoyan Sanwei has been stationed in that direction......"

"What do you mean...... It's the people who come this time? Are they here to help us fight off the enemy? Lin Lie immediately asked. As a general of the border army, he naturally knew the relationship between Duoyan Sanwei and the imperial court, and this grassland army had been a vassal or ally of the Ming Dynasty for many years.

But Lu Zhen shook his head and denied his statement: "I'm afraid things are not so optimistic." You said that my Jizhou and Duoyan Sanwei's territory are hundreds of miles away, how could they rush to help for no reason? It stands to reason that they couldn't even know that Jizhou was being attacked by the Tartars. ”

"That's right, could it be that the imperial court sent them to the rescue after getting our report?"

"It's even more unlikely. If the imperial court really wants to send reinforcements, it will only send troops from Tianjin and other cities close to my Jizhou, how can it be possible to use Duoyan Sanwei? Moreover, they are too far away from Jizhou, even if they really receive an order from the imperial court, they should come later. Lu Zhen said, his eyes stared: "If it is really the people of Duoyan Sanwei who come, then it is really hard to say whether they are friends or enemies." ”

Lu Jin's words were soon fulfilled by the facts, because not long after, that army and horses actually stopped. At this time, they were still more than 30 miles away from Jizhou, and more than 30 miles away from the Mengda camp, and they actually kept a safe distance from both sides.

This attitude made the warring parties inside and outside the city mutter, guessing what the real purpose of this group of men and horses was that suddenly appeared here.

But because it was night, no one dared to understand the exact identity and intentions of the other party

Recklessly, he could only carefully defend his camp and wait until dawn before making a decision.

The night passed slowly in the somewhat apprehensive vigilance of several parties, and after the daylight was bright, the Warat people and the Ming army finally saw clearly the identity of the soldiers and horses that suddenly appeared on the sides of the two sides, which was the soldiers and horses of the Duoyan Sanwei that they had guessed. But what makes people feel a little strange is that this army of more than 20,000 soldiers and horses just stopped in place, and had no intention of joining the battlefield, nor did they send a messenger or anything to Jizhou or the Mongolian camp to show their intentions, as if they had just migrated here and could not see the war here.

This made both the enemy and us feel a little confused, and at the same time, because there were more people around him who did not know the meaning of the road, they did not dare to use troops against Jizhou easily.

In fact, it was not only the Wara people and the Ming army who couldn't guess each other's intentions, but even the Duoyan Department itself, many people were a little confused by the sudden order issued by the patriarch of the family.

Previously, when the Warat Taishi also went to his house to discuss the merger, the patriarch Diesuda decided to take a look first and then talk about it was reasonable, after all, neither Warat nor Daming could deal with it. But now, knowing that the two sides are at war, it seems a little strange that their own family suddenly dispatched their own soldiers and horses to display here, is this planning to start a war with the two sides at the same time?

Especially when they actually stationed troops here in such a posture of not helping each other, everyone felt even more nervous in their hearts, and many people had already run to see the patriarch, hoping that he could give everyone an explanation.

After all, the patriarch of the grassland tribe is different from the rulers of the Central Plains, they can't do what they say, and if they can't convince the clansmen, then even if everyone reluctantly obeys the order this time, there will inevitably be chaos next time.

Therefore, when the nobles of the clan kept coming to inquire many times, Diesuda finally summoned everyone to his account and explained this:

"I know what you're worried about, but don't look at the Warat and Ming people fighting each other, but we're absolutely safe here. Either way, they dare not burn the flames of war on our heads, after all, none of them can afford to be attacked by the two sides. ”

The clansmen muttered a few words to each other, and finally agreed with his statement. But this still can't explain why they came outside the city of Jizhou, and many people immediately raised such a question.

"I did this for the sake of my future. Do you remember Mingguo's attitude towards us in the past few years? It is to prevent us and support us, but it refuses to give us more benefits. That's why we can't really get stronger.

"It must have been because the Warats saw this that they dared to persuade us to cooperate with them. However, the Warat people and we are not of the same mind, if they really have the strength to invade the Ming Kingdom, I am afraid that the first to suffer is our grassland tribes, because only by annexing all our large and small tribes, can they have no worries and can persuade them to march into the Central Plains.

"Whether it's Ming Guo or Warat, we don't dare to offend for the time being, so if we want to get benefits, we have to make our requests to them when they both need us

。 This is the purpose of me leading everyone to Jizhou this time, I hope to take advantage of this war to get some benefits from the Ming Kingdom and the Warat people. ”

At this time, everyone understood the hard work of the patriarch of the family, and finally let go of their hearts. But there are still people who are a little worried and say, "Then will they understand our intentions?" ”

"I'm not a stupid person at first, but as for the Ming people, they are even smarter, and I think soon they will understand how important we are in this war. When the time comes, they will definitely send someone to us, and we will be able to take the opportunity to make our request. Diesuda said confidently.

"But what if both of them are willing to meet our demands? Which side should we be on? "This is the most critical issue, after all, in the competition between the two powers, they have to stand aside as the weak.

"Of course, it's up to us to see who can benefit us more. I guess it's the Ming Kingdom, after all, they are far more abundant than the Warats, and we are also vassals of the Ming Kingdom, so we are naturally closer to them. Diesuda smiled. He felt that his strategy this time would inevitably succeed, just by taking his clansmen on a trip, he would be able to obtain the benefits from the Ming Kingdom, and then he would be able to get the credit of resisting a strong enemy, so that the Duoyan tribe would naturally become stronger.

Only then did everyone settle down, and a smile appeared on their faces, and they looked out expectantly, waiting for the two sides who were facing each other to send someone to negotiate with them.

They didn't wait too long, and on this afternoon, a gap suddenly opened in the east gate of Jizhou, and then a cavalry team of more than 100 people rushed towards the camp of the Duoyan Division.

And when this information reached Yexian, the warat Taishi, who had already guessed, couldn't sit still, and immediately sent his close confidant Wumeng to bring people to the camp of the Duoyan Department, one to find out the other party's intentions, and the other to try to persuade the other party to cooperate with his own family and attack Jizhou City together.

Wumeng is a tall and honest Mongolian man on the surface, but in fact he is very shrewd, and when he heard what the Taishi meant, he asked: "Then what if they ask for it?" ”

"Promise him, no matter what kind of request he makes, you can promise him, as long as he is willing to help us send troops to attack Jizhou City." He also gave his attitude without hesitation.

Umeng only understood after a moment's pause, hurriedly agreed, and left the camp. He knew very well that as long as Duoyan Buzhen and his own allied forces attacked Jizhou, then they would only have one way to choose next, even if they regretted it later, they would not be able to turn back. So his purpose for rushing over this time was very clear, that is, to let Duoyan send troops at all costs.

Soon, a cavalry team of more than 100 people also rushed towards the station of the Duoyan Department with Wumeng. Although the Ming army set off one step earlier than them, relying on the advantage of horsemanship, this team of Wara cavalry actually rushed to the station of the Duoyan Department with the other party.

At this time, the sun was setting, and the remnant sun shone like blood on this grassland that had just emerged with some vitality, and also shone on the bodies of the people on both sides. He didn't know that the leader on the opposite side was Wei Chengbo, who was sealed by the imperial court, and Lu Jinyi, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, Lu Jinsi!
