Text: Volume 11, Chapter 3, Section 7, Assembly Call (4)

In the fifth year of Chongzhen, the first day of the second month, Pyeonggu County, Gyeonggi.

Liu Yunwei, the prince of Zhenguo, had rushed to Pinggu County more than ten days in advance, and the left-hand army that had gone out to conquer the Mongolian tribes had also been assembled a few days in advance, and all the soldiers and horses gathered in Pinggu County.

Zhenguo Gong Liu Yunwei under the command of the Hanwei Army Pacesetter, Jizhou Town Chief Military Officer Wen Poyu Minister Shui Ying, Shaanxi Governor Sun Chuanting Department Qin Bing, Huguang Governor Lu Xiangsheng Department Tianxiong Army, Guangning General Military Officer Zhao Kaishan Department of the Tiger Camp, Lintao General Military Officer Cao Wenzhao Department of the elite camp, more than 200,000 soldiers stationed under the camp stretched more than ten miles around Pinggu County, only to see the flag covering the sun, the drum shook the sky, it was magnificent.

The Chinese army, which is located in the county government in Pinggu County, is already overcrowded. Early in the morning, Liu Yunwei ordered the generals of all walks of life to come to discuss the matter. The generals of the various armies rushed to hear the news, especially Sun Chuanting, Cao Wenzhao, Lu Xiangsheng and their subordinate generals, they were all excited, and they all rushed to the Chinese army early to wait.

Just when everyone was waiting, Cao Bianjiao, who had already mingled with the generals of the Hanwei Army in the Chinese army, came to his uncle Cao Wenzhao and whispered: "Look at the town! Over there is the world-famous Changshui Battalion Commander Wen Poyu and General Wen! The iron cavalry of the Changshui Battalion under his command is known as the strongest iron cavalry in the Ming Dynasty! ”

When Cao Wenzhao heard this, he looked over and saw Wen Poyu's heroic figure, and his face was also slightly moved.

"Look! That's Zhao Kaishan, the chief soldier of the Tiger Battalion, and Zhao Zongbing! That's a tiger general! ”

Cao Wenzhao looked at Zhao Kaishan again, and when he saw Zhao Kaishan, who was as strong as a tiger, Cao Wenzhao's eyes flashed with a burst of light.

"I don't know what Zhenguo Gong looks like, is it as rumored, born as majestic as the overlord of Western Chu!"

Cao Wenzhao smiled, and was about to reprimand Cao Bianjiao, how could the appearance of Zhenguo Gong be talked about at will?

However, before Cao Wenzhao could speak, he saw Sun Chuanting and Lu Xiangsheng walking over together. Cao Wenzhao ignored Cao Bianjiao, who was excited, and directly stepped forward to greet Sun Chuanting and Lu Xiangsheng.

In the Chinese army, everyone gathered together in twos and threes, and everyone was whispering about the upcoming war, with excited expressions on their faces.

Suddenly, everyone saw a general coming over, and he walked in front of everyone, followed by two guards wearing heavy armor.

"The head town! That's the world-famous Dragon Xiang Iron Cavalry Commander, Guo Wei! The Dragon Horse is the world's largest iron cavalry army! ”

Cao Wenzhao's face was full of admiration when he heard this, but he secretly said in his heart: "Didn't you just say that Changshui Camp is the first in the world?" Why is it now the first in the world? ”

Just when dozens of generals in the Chinese army looked at Guo Yi, Guo Yi smiled and saluted the generals, and said: "The general town and general have been waiting for a long time, and the town will be there soon, please prepare to greet you!" ”

When everyone heard this, they lined up left and right, and lined up within the Chinese army.

I saw that on the left were the generals of the Hanwei Army led by Wen Poyu and Zhao Kaishan, and on the right were the generals led by Lu Xiangsheng, Sun Chuanting, Cao Wenzhao and others. Guo Yi directly crossed the crowd and stood directly at the top.

At this moment, the gate of the Chinese army was opened, and Guo Yi suddenly said loudly: "Zhenguo Gong has arrived!" ”

Wen Poyu, Zhao Kaishan and other Hanwei generals saluted one after another, their faces full of pride; And Lu Xiangsheng, Sun Chuanting, Cao Wenzhao, Cao Bianjiao and other generals also hurriedly saluted, and everyone looked at Liu Yunwei, the heroic and heroic Zhenguo Gong, and everyone's faces were full of admiration.

Cao Bianjiao sighed even more in his heart: "It is said that Zhenguo Gong is a unicorn tiger, and now he really deserves his reputation when he sees it!" ”

Under the gaze of everyone, Liu Yunwei strode to the top position, and said to everyone with a smile: "I am tired of running around for days, everyone has worked hard, sit down!" ”

"Thanks, Zhen Guogong!"

After everyone sat down with Liu Yunwei, they sat in their respective seats together, and then looked at Liu Yunwei without squinting, waiting for Liu Yunwei to give an order.

Liu Yunwei looked around at the generals in the Chinese army, and deliberately stayed on Lu Xiangsheng's body for a few minutes, seeing that Lu Xiangsheng's face was white and his bearing was extraordinary, but he was wearing armor, and his body exuded a bloody aura. ”

Looking at Sun Chuanting and Cao Wenzhao again, Liu Yunwei nodded secretly, and said secretly in his heart: "In addition to the Hanwei Army and the Dangkou Battalion, I am not without fierce generals who can fight in battle!" ”

After watching it for a while, Liu Yunwei said with a smile: "Today is the first day of the second month, and the officers and men of all battalions of my left army have been assembled, and my father is very relieved. In this battle, my father is going to go into battle with you to kill the enemy, and I hope you will help me. ”

When the generals heard this, they said in unison: "I am willing to follow the Zhenguo Gong to kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions and sweep away the desert!" ”

"Good!"

Liu Yunwei smiled and said to the generals: "In this battle, my left army will face the Mongolian tribes, this is my old opponent of the Ming Dynasty." In this battle, Bengong is determined to completely solve the Mongol tribes and destroy this Hu Tatar who has committed many crimes against China! ”

The generals present listened enthusiastically, and the words of Liu Yunwei, the prince of Zhenguo, set the tone of this battle! In this battle, the army on the left is not only to defeat the Mongolian tribes, or how many cattle and sheep are captured, nor is it just to wander around the desert to show the great martial arts of the Ming Dynasty, but to completely destroy the Mongolian clan!

This is a magnificent battle comparable to the Han to destroy the Xiongnu and the Tang to destroy the Turks!

Looking at the swaying expressions of everyone's hearts, Liu Yunwei slowly stood up and said to everyone: "After this battle, the desert will be my horse farm in China!" Mongolia, will cease to exist! After this battle, my father will play Your Majesty, rebuild the Hanhai Protectorate in the Mongolian steppe, and restore my hometown in China! ”

"I am willing to swear to follow the Zhenguo Gong, open up the territory, and sweep away the four razes!"

Then, Liu Yunwei began to deploy the tasks before the war.

"Where is Wen Poyu, the chief soldier of Jizhou Town!"

"The last general!"

"Order your troops not to collect the north out of General Shiguan at night, go north through Xinglong and Baima River, and explore the situation in the area of the Hara Hetao!"

"Order!"

"Where is Zhao Kaishan, the chief military officer of Guangning Town!"

"The last general!"

"Order your department not to take out the Miyun Guard Gubeikou at night, go north through Luanping, and go to the Mantaoer area to investigate!"

"Order!"

"Where is Sun Chuanting, the governor of Shaanxi, Lu Xiangsheng, the governor of Huguang, and Cao Wenzhao, the chief military officer of Lintao!"

Sun Chuanting, Lu Xiangsheng, and Cao Wenzhao were immediately excited when they heard this, and they all stood up and saluted, and said loudly: "The end will be!" ”

"The three of you sent elite soldiers to the north from the Xifeng Pass, passed through Kuancheng, crossed the Kuanhe River, and explored the situation in the area around the Han River Loop!"

"Order!"

Sun Chuanting, Lu Xiangsheng, and Cao Wenzhao were all excited to receive the order of Liu Yunwei, the prince of Zhenguo.

Moreover, from the words of Liu Yunwei, the prince of Zhenguo, the generals also vaguely felt that the prince of Zhenguo was preparing to attack north in three ways! When the generals thought of the situation where the 150,000 troops were marching north in three directions, their blood boiled.

In the following half a month, the left army sent a total of thousands of soldiers who did not collect at night and iron cavalry, and ran rampant in the areas of the Hara River Loop, the Jia Han River Loop, and the Mantaoer, and fought several skirmishes with the Mongolian iron cavalry who came to stop them.

Because the soldiers and iron cavalry soldiers of the Ming army were sent by the Hanwei army and elite military towns in various places, they did not fall behind in the face of the Mongolian iron cavalry, and even won steadily, so after several fierce battles, the Mongolian iron cavalry was defeated one after another, and the loss of troops was no less than 2,000 people!

Like the Korean state, as early as the Liaodong War and the fall of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, the Mongol tribes had already expected that the Ming Dynasty would definitely send troops north to retaliate. If nothing else, if you rush to Daming to have Liu Yunwei, the prince of Zhenguo, and the Hanwei army and the Dangkou camp under his command, Daming will definitely not give up!

The Mongol tribes showed surprising solidarity in the face of an existential threat, and the chiefs of the tribes gathered in Daning at the initiative of Shetu Khan Oba, the territory of the Korqin chief, to discuss how to face the approaching Ming army.

Although more than a dozen Mongolian leaders seem to be working together on the surface, they have their own ghosts, and everyone wants to preserve their strength and let others act as pawns to fight with the extremely powerful Ming army, while they themselves pick up the cheap. Even some of the darker leaders were still thinking in their hearts about how to preserve their strength in the upcoming war, so as to take the opportunity to unify the Mongolian tribes after the Ming army withdrew!

The Korqin Chief's Territory, Shetu Khan Oba, who convened the conference, was filled with grief and indignation when he saw that everyone was at odds with each other.

Due to the close contacts between the Horqin Department and the Manchu Qing Dynasty before, once the Ming army went on a northern expedition, the Horqin Department must have borne the brunt of the annihilation, and now the only vitality of the Horqin Department is that the Mongolian departments work together to win this battle!

However, Oba looked at the leaders of the various tribes who were constantly quarreling, and knew that it was impossible to defeat the powerful Ming army with these people in front of him alone.

Oba yelled, and the tent fell silent, and Oba told the crowd that in order to win the battle, reinforcements must be found. As for where to get the reinforcements, Oba offered two directions for everyone!

One is the department of Lin Dan Khan, who has fled westward, and the other is the Mongolian tribe of the outer domain!

When the leaders heard this, they whispered and asked a crucial question: who was in command of the Mongol armies?

Oba was speechless and held back for a while before he said fiercely: "If Lin Dan Khan is not dead, let him come to lead the army, and we will participate in political affairs together." ”

One of the leaders immediately asked loudly, "What if Lin Dan Khan is already dead!" ”

"Then lead the horse to elect, and let the immortal heaven decide who will lead the descendants of Genghis Khan to face the Ming army!"
