834 Arrangement (3rd Shift)
The Great Black Mountain, in the northeast of Jinzhou, is tall and steep, and the Great Wall is built on it. The predetermined ambush site was a valley near the steppe outside the pass.
It is worthy of the head snake of the Guanning Army, who knows the surrounding terrain very well, and chose this valley to ambush. If you bombard from the mountains, there is no way to hide from the bottom of the valley, and you can even block the exit of the valley, and then throw wood and stones from the cliff wall of the mountain to the west, which can also inflict a lot of damage on the enemies in the valley.
Nowadays, this place is very lively, and the Ming cavalry army has transported truckloads of grain under the guidance of the banner of "Cao". When they arrived at this side of the valley, the chiefs of the Ayman'er and Huert tribes had already led their people to wait here.
Seeing Cao Wenzhao's army arriving, he hurriedly greeted him and saluted with the most honorable etiquette in Mongolia.
Cao Wenzhao sat on the horse, very arrogant, pointed at them with a horsewhip and asked, "Has the news ever spread?" ”
The two patriarchs knew what he was referring to, and one of them, the patriarch of the Hurt tribe, hurriedly replied: "I have already sent someone to inform him, and when the villain sees the grain, he will send someone to inform him again, so that the Qing soldiers can ...... Jianyu sent troops to pick it up! ”
The patriarch of the Ayman's tribe replied in the same way, saying that everything was going according to plan.
When Cao Wenzhao heard this, he put his hand back for a while and said: "Elder Ge knows that your clan is about to be unable to survive, so he will first allocate three carts of grain to your clan, and the rest of the grain will not be moved for the time being, and he will be a bait to lure Jianyu into the valley." ”
While talking, only the Ming army drove forward with six wagons, which were piled with grain bags.
When the patriarchs of the Aiman'er and Huert tribes saw this, they were both overjoyed and hurriedly thanked them.
Cao Wenzhao looked indifferent, and pointed with a horsewhip: "Come on, hand them over, accept them on the spot, and the marshal can also give the old man an errand!" ”
So, immediately a soldier stepped forward and took the initiative to hand over with the two Mongolian tribes, in order to show that there was no cat, and even immediately opened the grain bag, took out the grain for them to test, after everything was verified, the grain truck was handed over.
The patriarchs of the Aiman'er tribe and the Huert tribe were very happy, and the smile on their faces could not be suppressed, and they hurriedly said that they had come to help the Ming army unload the grain and fight.
When Cao Wenzhao heard this, he shouted with a cold face: "What can you Mongolians do besides herding? ”
These two patriarchs of the Mongolian tribes were stunned when they said this, and they didn't know what he meant by saying this?
But immediately, Cao Wenzhao's words solved their doubts: "These grains are the most important bait for Jianyu, so they must be placed well, so that Jianyu can't be moved away so easily, so that our army can have more time to annihilate them!" ”
Speaking of this, he pointed with his horsewhip and said, "You stand back, you have your own handsome sons and daughters to arrange!" ”
When the patriarchs of the Ayman'er and Huert tribes heard this, they retreated, and prepared to see what the Ming army would do.
I saw that the Ming army found a flat open space at the back of the valley, and after cleaning up the debris first, they began to carry it down from the grain truck bag by bag, and built it up in an orderly manner. Among them, there was a soldier who accidentally fell to the ground, and the grain bag on his shoulder fell out, the grain bag broke, and the grain inside spilled out, which made the Mongolians feel very distressed. Naturally, it also attracted Cao Wenzhao's scolding, so that they must be careful, if anyone spills food again, military law will do it!
Not to mention, after this military order was passed down, none of the soldiers of the Ming army fell to the ground, and they all carefully finished moving the grain, and the base was like a hill, not only in order, but also fenced around and carefully protected.
After seeing that the grain was stacked, Cao Wenzhao called the patriarch of the Aiman'er tribe and the patriarch of the Huert tribe, with a cold face, pointed at the grain with a horsewhip and said: "These grains do not belong to you now, only when you finish what you should do and let Ben Shuai make great contributions, these grains will belong to you." Therefore, before that, if you dare to move the food here, don't blame Ben Shuai for being polite! ”
For his rudeness and arrogance, as well as the contempt brought out by his words and demeanor, the two patriarchs turned a blind eye, and even claimed to be true on the surface, but secretly said in their hearts: "Let you be arrogant, wait and see!" ”
When Cao Wenzhao had finished giving his orders, he turned and left, leading his men and horses back to the back of the mountain on the west side of the valley. This is because one side of the mountain is a cliff, and the other side is a flat slope, like a right triangle.
The patriarchs of the two Mongolian tribes wanted to send it, but they were stopped by Cao Wenzhao's personal guards: "What are you going to do?" Do you want to peek into my Guan Ningjun's arrangement? ”
"Don't dare, don't dare, absolutely don't mean that." The patriarch of the Ayman'er clan hurriedly stopped and said with a smile. The so-called landed phoenix is not as good as a chicken, and the patriarch of a dignified tribe also has to accept the scolding of a personal guard in the central district of the Ming army, and he has to be accompanied by a smiling face.
Before this was over, the guard scolded: "You'd better stay away from our food, otherwise you'll think you're trying to steal it." When the time comes, don't blame us for missing something on the mountain. ”
After finishing speaking, he even pointed forward with his hand, signaled and said, "It's better not to go over there, hum!" ”
Continuing to endure, the two patriarchs hurriedly agreed, while holding back their temper and admonishing themselves. Because they also found that Cao Wenzhao must have heard his personal guards speak, but he didn't care, and his attitude was naturally very clear.
The guards turned around, caught up with Cao Wenzhao, and complained: "Dashuai, we don't have much food ourselves, and we can't figure it out if we give them so much!" ”
The voice of these words was a little loud, and the two patriarchs heard it, and they suddenly knew in their hearts, why did this guard speak so disrespectfully, it turned out to be because of this!
The two of them watched Cao Wenzhao go away, and suddenly found that in the distance of the Ming army, they were also carrying artillery, led by horses, and were blocked by the figure of the Ming army's foot soldiers. It can be seen that this time the ambush, Guan Ningjun is obviously determined to win.
The two patriarchs glanced at each other, then turned back and instructed their henchmen to pull the grain carts given by the Ming army back to the grassland. After waiting for a long distance out of the valley, a few more people broke away from the team escorting the grain and galloped towards Shenyang.
The two patriarchs who stayed in the valley listened to Cao Wenzhao's words very much, and did not dare to approach those grain piles, or because they didn't want to have more rights and wrongs, but they were also very peaceful. It's just that after hearing the mountains in the distance, there are movements of the Ming army from time to time, and even on the top of the mountain, there are Ming troops repairing fortifications, which all indicate that there will be a fierce battle here.
