Chapter 867: Spread the net on three sides

The soldiers of Wei who suddenly killed were in chaos and rushed the Warat cavalry, and the centurion led by him was also injured by the fire gun, and his stomach was bleeding.

He chased the Yarkand people for a few days and nights, and the three horses ran and killed two horses, and he didn't want to kill hundreds of Wei troops halfway, so that his previous efforts were wasted.

Seeing that the pursued people escaped on horseback, and the Wara cavalry was about to be surrounded by the Wei army, plus he was bleeding and needed to be rescued, the centurion could only pull the reins of his horse with grief and anger in his heart, and shouted urgently, "Withdraw!" Come on! ”

The centurion took a deep look at Ismael's back, then hurriedly pulled the reins of his horse and led his men back in panic.

Li Benshen led dozens of horsemen to chase and kill, and was shot a few arrows by the Wara cavalry, he did not catch up with the Warat cavalry, but several of his subordinates were shot and wounded by the Warats.

Ismayele was in danger, and when he saw that reinforcements were coming out, he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and the war horse continued to run forward, ran a few steps, and gradually slowed down, and finally his four hooves became weak, and he lay on the ground, and threw Ismayele down.

Outside Jiayu Pass, the living conditions were relatively poor, and in order to protect the trade routes, the Wei State gradually restored the garrisons in Yumen, Dunhuang and other places.

When the Wei army besieged Taiyuan, the Qing army in the city ate people, which caused public anger and was no longer tolerated in the Central Plains, so Gao Yihuan transferred them to the border outside the Guan.

It was deserted, full of caravans, and no one knew their past, so there was little fingering.

Li Benshen rushed back with the cavalry, Li Kui had already cleaned up the battlefield, and laughed loudly, "Thirty-two were killed, twenty war horses were captured, and more than ten wounded and dead horses were killed." ”

The conditions in the northwest were poor, the cost of transporting materials from Guanzhong was too high, and almost all the departments of the Wei army were reluctant to go out of the border of the pass, and anything here was very precious, and Li Kui was very happy to see the victory.

"The Warats rode and shot well, they didn't chase for a few miles, and they shot and wounded eight brothers." Li Benshen's face was stupid, he looked left and right, and asked, "What about the Yarkand man just now?" ”

Li Kui pointed to the back, "Let the car go up." It seems that Xiang is a nobleman from Yarkand, who can't speak Chinese, and he seems to be in a hurry for a while! ”

Li Benshen glanced at it, he couldn't speak Chinese, so he couldn't communicate, so he waved his hand, "Go back to the camp and talk about it." ”

At that moment, more than 300 Wei soldiers led the captured horses, carried the scimitars, bows and arrows of the Warats, and carried the divided horse corpses, all the way to the south.

In a short time, a camp surrounded by fences and mud appeared in the distance, in which there were herds of cattle and sheep, the old people were feeding the cattle and sheep, the women were chopping wood for cooking, and the children were playing in the dusty camp, which had gradually come out of the haze of Taiyuan.

The women and children in the camp saw the Wei soldiers returning from afar, and immediately greeted them with cheers.

Li Benshen returned to the camp and said to Li Kui: "Bring that Yarkand man here, and then call an interpreter." ”

In the tent, Li Benshen and Li Kui sat on the woolen carpet produced in Guanzhong, Ismailel saw the two, and he hurriedly said a lot, and the interpreter next to him was a little surprised: "The two generals, he is Ismaeyel, the prince of Yarkand, came to our rescue in Dawei on the order of Yarkand Khan, and wanted to ask the king to send troops to rescue Shachecheng." ”

Li Benshen raised his eyebrows, the Great Wei State had long known about the Warat people's attack on Yarkand, and the military order came from the feudal mansion a few months ago, asking the border army to pay attention to the situation in Yarkand, and he didn't want the Warat people to advance so quickly, and they actually hit Shache so quickly.

"Li Kui, this matter must be reported to the imperial court as soon as possible, and you continue to pay attention to the situation in the west." Li Benshen stood up, "Ben will work hard and accompany him to Wang Jing!" ”

~~~~~~

After the Battle of Xinkou in January this year, apart from besieging Taiyuan, the Wei army did not fight any other wars.

Originally, according to Gao Yihuan's plan, he would take a year off this year, no longer fight a big war, and before the beginning of spring next year, he would take Luoyang with lightning speed to further consolidate his advantages, but now the situation has undergone some changes.

The rise of the Warat people made the Western Wei Dynasty dare not act rashly, so as not to suffer the enemy on their backs.

In the palace of the Western Wei Dynasty, Gao Yihuan gathered several ministers in the study to discuss the changes in the situation in recent months.

"Great King, Scout Songbao, Yanzhou Mansion and other places in Shandong have begun to appear homeless, General Liu is ready to go out of Yimeng Mountain, take advantage of the situation to absorb the homeless people, and strengthen the army!"

Before the Battle of Hedong, Liu Heizi's situation was very miserable, under the heavy encirclement and suppression of the Qing army, he wandered around the borders of Henan, Beizhi and Shandong, and at the worst time, there were only four or five hundred subordinates left around him, hiding in the Yimeng Mountains.

At the end of last year, after the tripartite war between Wei, Ming and Qing, the strength of the Qing army was greatly damaged, and Liu Heizi became active again.

Gao Yihuan bowed slightly, "Let him not be too high-profile and act at the opportunity." ”

Gao Yicheng nodded, and then reported again, "Great King, according to the news from Nanjing, Nanjing and the Manchu Qing seem to be intent on formulating a plan to open the net on three sides and block the Great Wei. "Now that the Wei state is strong, there are people in the Han court, who have no discipline within the Manchu court, and among the Ming ministers in Nanjing, who are connected to the Wei state.

In the past, it was the civil officials of the Wei State who quietly leaked the news to Nanjing, but now the situation has reversed and has become many ministers in the south of the Yangtze River, who have secretly communicated with the Wei State, among which the smuggling maritime merchants in eastern Zhejiang who were attacked by Zhu Cihong and the official gentry involved in the smuggling are the most closely related to the Wei State.

"Three-sided netting?" Gao Yihuan frowned slightly, "What is the specific situation?" ”

Gao Yicheng replied: "It is said that this plan was first proposed by Ruan Dacheng, and at first it was only a union between the Southern Ming and the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and later Dolgon proposed to include Warat in it, and even contacted other forces around our Great Wei to join the blockade together. ”

Gao Yihuan was happy after hearing this, which reminded him of Nobunaga's siege network, but it was ridiculous that the Manchus, Nanming, and Warat, who had their own ghosts, wanted to trap him.

At this time, Lu Yifang spoke: "Great King, if these three parties are united, it will indeed be detrimental to my Great Wei. Now not to mention the Southern Ming and Manchu Qing, just talking about Warat, has caused us a lot of trouble. In the past two years, nearly half of the income of the feudal government has come from trade with the Western Regions, and the trade routes have been cut off for two months since the Warats invaded Yarkand, and the merchants' purchase of wool, leather, cattle, sheep and horses from Mongolia and Qinghai has been affected. If the Warats controlled the Western Regions, it would be difficult for the feudal government to maintain the expansion of its army. ”

Chen Mingxia on the side also said: "The problem that the Ministry of War is worried about is that the equipment and armor of the Warat people are very scarce now, and if they occupy Yarkand, the army will inevitably be able to improve its equipment and its strength will increase greatly." ”

When Gao Yihuan heard this, he couldn't help but sit up straight and began to pay attention to it, and at this moment, Wang Shicong suddenly came in and said to Gao Yihuan: "King, Li Benshen brought Prince Yaerqiang to ask for a meeting. ”

"Oh?" Gao Yihuan was surprised for a while, "Let them come over to meet them." ”

"Yes!" Wang Shicong saluted and was about to retreat, but Gao Yihuan suddenly got up again, "Wait, let Prince Yaerqiang settle down first, and call Li Benshen to see Gu!" ”

Gao Yihuan thought about it for a while, and decided to first understand the intention of Prince Yarkand from Li Benshen's mouth, and then come to meet him, so as not to be difficult to deal with at that time.
