Chapter 267: Arriving at Jianzhou Wei
The grassland is a place that depends on the sky to eat, and if God does not give it, their living standards will also decline, and if God is in a good mood, they will be able to live a little more comfortably.
The main reason for this Mongolian Tatar nest is that there is a great drought in the grasslands this year, and there is a drought in the pastures that can be used for grazing, and the Tatars cannot make ends meet due to the large-scale death of hungry cattle and sheep, so they have no choice but to launch a large-scale war and invade the border of the Ming Dynasty.
Like the Buddha of the Central Plains, Tatar also has their own beliefs, they believe in immortality, bless their omnipotent gods, but according to Li Yan's estimate, Changshengtian may be playing mahjong with other gods in the recent year,...... There was no time to deal with this group of Tatars.
There are very few times when the Ming Dynasty and the Tatars have nothing to do, basically there will be some friction every year, but they are all small-scale frictions, just like last time, the last time Li Yan saw only a small part of the Tatar army, the real Tatar army, the number is far more than last time.
……
…………
Along the way, Li Yan was still a little leisurely, sitting in the carriage and looking at the scenery, as for the armor on his body, he was dragged down by Li Yan as soon as he left the capital.
…… What is that, it's not a human wear! It's hard and cold, and there's really no other use for it except to be able to block bows and arrows!
Li Yan thought so.
The army does not wear armor when going into battle, and Li Yan is also the first one, Li Yan's urine nature, and many Jinyi guard captains who accompanied him know a little more.
Isn't it too exciting to be able to mess with such a boss who is naturally bohemian?
……
…………
The marching team is very slow, in fact, it can't be said to be very slow, at least compared to other armies, it has been a lot faster, this section because of Li Yan's weight-bearing long-distance running training, the overall physical fitness of Jinyiwei has risen a lot, and now Li Yan has the full strength to stand in front of everyone and tell them that in terms of team battles, my brother is the best!
Speed up the march, this time with the troops out, Li Yi specially brought hundreds of horses as military rations, the Ming Dynasty's control over horses is no less than the modern control of knives, it is not easy to sell horses on weekdays, let alone use horses as military rations!
Li Yan was able to get so many horses this time, all of them relied on Liu Jin's help, although Liu Jin's body parts are not very comprehensive, but he was really very polite to Li Yan, as soon as Li Yan made this request, Liu Jin immediately agreed with his chest, and sent the horses over in just one night.
But this matter was carried out under the stage, after all, the use of horses as military rations sounded very shocking, and Li Yan could be sure that if he was heard by that group of civilian officials, he would definitely come to find trouble for himself as soon as possible......
Regarding this matter, Li Yan has ordered that all of them are not allowed to leak out, otherwise they will be dealt with by military law, and they are not allowed to eat! Others can only watch while eating.
Who can give up on the initiative if there is a good thing? Unless it's a fool, but it's an honor, there is no such fool in Jinyi Wei for the time being, even if there is such a fool, Li Yan will find a way to shut up this kind of fool......
In less than ten days of the march, Li Yanshuai's army arrived in Liaoning, and before he entered the boundary of Liaoning, he saw Liaoning Wei in front of him from a distance, and the battle was very large.
Liaoning Wei is also called Jianzhou Wei, because the Ming Dynasty set up guards around Liaoning is famous, Jianzhou Wei includes Jianzhou Wei, Jianzhou Left Guard, Jianzhou Right Guard, a total of three guards, these three parties are entrenched in the Northeast, guarding the safety of the Northeast Border.
The name of the Jianzhou Guard is Li Ao, and his specific name is no longer available, anyway, he is the descendant of Li Chengshan, the first Jianzhou Guard.
Li Yan didn't have a good impression of him, probably because Li Ao had Jurchen blood, and Li Yan always felt that this person was not very reliable when he saw this Li Ao.
……
…………
"Li Ao, the subordinate Jianzhou Guard, has seen Lord Li, Lord Li has worked the road, and his subordinates have already prepared a resting place for Lord Li." As soon as they met, Li Ao took the initiative to say hello to Li Yan.
Li Yan was a little surprised, this Li Ao actually recognized himself at a glance?
But then thinking about it, Li Yi knew that at this moment, the matter of his expedition to the Northeast had already spread throughout the Ming Dynasty, and his portrait must have been sent to various passes, and it was not difficult for Li Ao to recognize himself directly.
"Oh? Li Zongbing has a heart, or not, as Li Zongbing said, Li is really tired, so let's go and rest first, and then discuss business with Li Zongbing tomorrow. Li Yan nodded and agreed with Li Ao's words.
Hearing this, Li Ao's brows wrinkled imperceptibly, his eyes glanced at Li Yan with his spare eyes, and he wondered in his heart, this is the rumored wolf-like Jinyi Guard commander Li Yan in the Beijing Division? Can this bear still come and resist the Tatars? And let out the words to make the tartar fart roll and flowing?
…… That's too happy, isn't it? God, are you kidding me? This thought suddenly welled up in Li Ao's heart, and this feeling became stronger and stronger.
As soon as this thought came out, Li Yan's impression in Li Ao's heart dropped a few points, and his expression became imperceptibly cold.
However, Li Ao did not directly express his contempt for Li Yan on his face for this reason.
The tone is a little cold, but Li Ao can completely excuse that this is due to the talent of the soldiers, on the surface, Li Ao is still very polite to Li Yan, and without saying a word, he personally took Li Yan to the residence that he had already prepared for Wei.
The residence that Li Ao prepared for Li Yan is not very luxurious, at best it is a temporary shack, saying that it is a shack, Li Yi feels that he is praising it, this is clearly a canopy, okay?
Suddenly, Li Yan had the idea of returning to the big tent in the army to spend the night.
Turning his head, Li Yan was stunned to find that Li Ao was looking at him with blank eyes, and his old face was black and red all year round.
"What's that, Master Li, this is already the best here, you know, it's not easy for us to ......"
……
…………
After entering the residence, Li Yibing went to the next person, changed the casual and calm on his original face, his expression changed suddenly, waved his hand to signal Zhao Shun to come over, and then lay on Zhao Shun's ear and said a few words, and then Zhao Shun nodded and hurriedly left.
After Zhao Shun left, Li Yan sat in place, tasted the tea brought by the subordinate just now, and couldn't help pouting, sure enough, people are not always happy, this is not used to good things in the capital, and I am not used to it when I get here.
Gritting his teeth, Li Yan shook his head, took out the tea he brought from the capital from his accompanying bag, and made a pot himself.
