In May, the pastures of the Hetao Plain soar and herds of cattle and sheep roam the pastures.

In the undulating grassland, there were tents of the Qing army, and nearly 130,000 cavalry were crowded in the Hetao.

Originally, the Qing army did not have the ability to support so many soldiers and horses to fight, but the Qing army captured a large number of cattle and sheep, and the war horses had fat pasture to eat, which reduced the pressure on the Qing army's food supply.

At this time, in the vast field, a low horn echoed, and the Mongolian cavalry, as well as the Eight Banners cavalry, galloped back and forth on the grassland in groups.

On the edge of the Yellow River, a large pole stands tall, and the blue armor of Zilharang stands on horseback under the banner, and Haoge stands beside him.

In front of them, more than a dozen Mobei princes were tied up by the Eight Banners wearing blue armor, and stones were tied to their bodies.

"Lord Wang, get ready!" A bull with a blue flag trotted over and reported on one knee.

Zilharang had no expression on his face, waved his hand, and said coldly: "Let's start!" ”

As soon as he gave the order, the real Manchuria, which was inlaid with blue flags, kicked the prince of Mobei who was kneeling by the river into the rolling Yellow River.

The relationship between the Manchus and Mongolia has always been good, if Mobei Mongolia takes the initiative to surrender, then the Qing State will definitely be preferential, but they are defeated, Zierharang in order to completely eat Mobei Mongolia, there is only a killer to get rid of a group of disobedient nobles.

At this time, Hauge saw those disobedient princes drowned in the sinking river, his face showed excitement, and he turned to Zilharang and said: "Aung Bang Ama, now that Mobei has been decided, should we immediately go south and attack Guanzhong." ”

Zilharang said lightly: "Don't worry, first absorb Mobei Mongolia, split them into multiple flags, and completely control them." At the same time, it is not difficult to send scouts to find out the passes along the Great Wall, and our army of more than 100,000 people, divided into several suspicious soldiers, to confuse the Wei army, and then choose a place to enter the pass. ”

Haoge nodded and said: "What Angbang Ama said is right, first reorganize Mobei Mongolia, and then choose one place to break through, as long as you enter the pass, it will be a huge blow to the Western Wei Dynasty." ”

Jilharang glanced at him approvingly, and then said slowly: "Gao Yihuan's momentum has been achieved, and it is not easy to extinguish it quickly. Dorgon was overjoyed, and he was too anxious. Its practical policy of the emperor, this king sees that it is not difficult to destroy the Western Wei! ”

Hauge couldn't help but ask, "The emperor's strategy?" ”

Zilharang nodded, and said to Haoge: "Dolgon is scheming, but he can't be called eloquent, and the real hero of my Qing Dynasty is still Emperor Taizong." At the beginning, I only had a corner outside the customs of the Qing Dynasty, but the Ming Kingdom was like a behemoth, and there was no hope of replacing it, but Emperor Taizong saw the opportunity and entered the customs six times, which made the vitality of the Ming Kingdom exhausted and the people's hearts were lost. ”

Zilharang looked at the south from afar, as if he could see the palace of the King of Wei in Xi'an City, and continued: "When I deal with the Western Wei in the Qing Dynasty, I can also adopt the strategy of Taizong back then, take advantage of the advantages of the Ma army, break through the city and enter the city, do not fight with the main force of the Wei army, choose its weak place to attack it, and plunder the countryside. It won't take more than a few times like this, and the Western Army will be like an elephant that continues to lose blood, and one day it will collapse like the Ming Kingdom. ”

Hauge bowed slightly, "Aung Bang Amma, I understand!" ”

Zilharang then commanded: "Investigate the situation of the garrisons along the Great Wall, and the king will hand it over to you." Remember, be careful, from Jiayuguan in the west to Yulin Mansion in the east, it can be used as a breakthrough for us. As soon as the situation was discovered, the army immediately moved south and plundered Guanzhong. ”

"Wow!" Hauge immediately bowed.

~~~~~~

Gao Yihuan talked with several Mongolian generals for a while, set up a banquet to entertain them, and then asked the Ministry of Rites to give them gorgeous clothes and brocade, distribute mansions, and give them land.

Although Xi'an City is not like the former Beijing City, nor is it as good as the flowery Nanjing, but after all, it is a big city in Guanzhong, the capital of the Western Wei Dynasty, and the living environment is not much stronger than that on the grassland.

In fact, even if it is a great khan on the grassland, the quality of life may not be comparable to a Qipinzhi county in the Western Wei Kingdom.

There have been examples of kings of small countries who came to China to pay tribute and were reluctant to return to China.

Gao Yihuan asked the officials of the Ministry of Rites to take several Mongolian generals to visit the mansion, visit Xi'an, experience the prosperity of Xi'an, and open the eyes of several Mongolian generals.

What they pursued was nothing more than that, and several Mongol generals visited for a few days, and immediately expressed their allegiance to the Great Wei.

Gao Yihuan was very satisfied with this, and ordered them to return to the camp and persuade Babu to enter the pass to prevent the Qing army from attacking.

In May, after Gao Yihuan ordered several Mongolian generals to return to the camp, he immediately received a report that Qing army scouts appeared along the Great Wall.

Gao Yihuan urgently summoned the generals of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies to participate in the military meeting and discuss the matter of dealing with the Qing army in Hetao.

In the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, in the military conference hall, Gao Yihuan sat on the top with the respect of the King of Wei, six generals sat on both sides, and a huge sand table was placed in the middle.

At this time, Gao Yihuan stood up and said loudly: "Everyone is here, let's start." At this point, he walked quickly to the sand table, pointed to the line of the Great Wall with a wooden stick, "According to the detective, here, here, and here, there are Tartar scouts. The Qing army explored a wide range, and Yulin, Yan'an, Ningxia, and even Ganzhou and Suzhou could become the direction of their breakthrough. Let's take a look at this battle, how should we deal with it, you may wish to speak freely. ”

Li Dingguo muttered: "Great King, this is the same as the previous situation, except that the threat of Ordos Mongolia and Mobei Mongolia was faced before, and now it has been replaced by the Manchu Qing. ”

Gao Yihuan nodded, "That's true." Previously, King Lone made a preemptive attack, defeated the Ordos Department, and resolved the southern invasion of Mobei Mongolia, but now that the Qing army is heavily gathered, King Lone cannot follow the previous strategy and take the initiative to attack. ”

In the lobby, everyone was silent for a while, all staring at the sand table with their eyes, pondering countermeasures.

At this time, Huang Bingzhong pulled out his beard, and suddenly arched his hand and said: "King, the characteristic of our Wei army in battles has always been that they can't fight head-on, so they break through on the flanks. The minister thought that the defense would only be exhausted, and it was better to surprise the Qing army to contain it. ”

Gao Yihuan asked, "What's so surprising?" ”

Huang Bingzhong pointed to the direction of Shanxi, "Take Pujin Pass and threaten Taiyuan." Shanxi is surrounded by mountains, the middle plain, and the land of southern Jin is not suitable for cavalry combat, which is the place where our Wei army comes in. It is more beneficial for us to start a war here than in Guanzhong! Moreover, Shanxi is the western barrier of Beijing, if Shanxi is lost, Dolgon will inevitably have trouble sleeping, and will not even be able to gain a foothold in Beijing, and the Qing army will certainly not sit idly by and watch us occupy Pujin and threaten Taiyuan, and Dolgon will definitely order reinforcements from the army. ”

Gao Yihuan stroked his short beard under his chin and muttered: "The defense of Guanzhong is already insufficient, and if you divide your troops to fight Shanxi, it will be to bet that the Qing army wants to loot Guanzhong more, or you want to protect Shanxi more." ”

Li Dingguo took over the conversation, "Your Majesty, the minister agrees with the opinion of Huang Dudu. At present, it is indeed difficult to prevent the Qing army from breaking through the pass, and what the feudal government can do is to reduce the losses and drive the Qing army outside the pass as soon as possible, so as not to let them rush into the Guanzhong Plain. And to do this, the minister thought that he would divide an elite army, attack Pujin Pass, threaten Taiyuan, and put pressure on the Qing army. Of course, at the same time as the surprise army, we also need to exert external pressure on the Qing army, and send soldiers and horses from Hanzhong, Huguang and Nanyang into Guanzhong, strengthen the defense of Guanzhong, and squeeze the Qing army out of Guanzhong. ”

Gao Yihuan listened to the words of the two, glanced at the others, and asked loudly, "Do you have any other suggestions?" Is that what it means? ”

Several generals glanced at each other, and Zhao Daxian said: "Anyway, the minister does not approve of completely passive defense, and the minister seconded Lao Huang's suggestion to surprise the troops to seize Pujin Pass." ”

Jin Xiangang also hugged his fists and said: "Raid Shanxi, let the Qing court put pressure on Zierharang and Haoge, and then we will strengthen the defense of our troops, so that the Qing army will not be able to make gains, and the Qing army will inevitably retreat." ”

Seeing this, Gao Yihuan nodded, "Okay, just do it." However, you can't blindly defend in Guanzhong, if you have the conditions, you must eat a Qing army, the lonely king has 30,000 horse troops, he dares to scatter the grass valley, and the lonely will beat his fingers~"
