In the middle of the night, Duoduo secretly delivered 31 horses and two sheep according to the agreement with the West Bank. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Of the thirty-one horses, seven or eight were horses, and the remaining twenty or so were military horses. Two sheep were tied upside down on all fours, and were set on horseback. Not only that, but on horseback, there were also wine, meat, tobacco, clothes, pen and ink, and two books that Duo Erhong was reading.

Duoduo didn't dare to play tricks, led the horses to the bank of the Yellow River as promised, and gave a signal after evacuating the people. Bu 19 sent rafts to smoothly pull horses and supplies across the river.

Early in the morning, a sheepskin raft with a white flag slowly and leisurely transported the body of Ai Xinguo from the island in the middle of the river to the east coast.

Azig went back and forth a few times outside the tent of the Blue Banner de Gray, and every time he tried to go in, he walked to the door of the tent and flashed past the door of the tent.

Degre, the tenth son of Nurhachi, who is in the blue banner, was born in the same year as the eighth son of the Aixin Khan, Abahai, and the ninth son, Babutai, and was twenty-two years older than Duoduo. According to Duoduo, he and De Gray couldn't talk together. The older Azig had no choice but to take matters into his own hands.

Azig was hesitating, Degray's tent door curtain was lifted, and Degray appeared at the door, "Boy, you were dangling in front of my eyes just after dawn, do you want to come in and have a drink?" ”

Azig hurriedly agreed: "Brother Ten, I won't eat the wine, can I go to your tent and eat a bag of tamba mushrooms to avoid the cold?" “

Although Azig, who ranked twelfth, was nine years older than Duoduo, he was thirteen years behind the older generation of Degray, and Azig's tone was very polite.

"Come in!" Degree turned and went into the tent and threw Azig a bag of tobacco leaves and his own cigarette pouch pot.

Azig fumbled with the tobacco leaves, "Brother Ten, there is something I've been thinking about for a long time, and I've always wanted to come and compensate you, but, you know, I haven't had time, so I ......"

DeGray was stunned.

The two did have some festive experiences. A few years ago, some Mongols defected to Azig, but the brothers of these Mongols belonged to Degree's Blue Banner, so Degrei's Mongols should also belong to the Blue Banner, so the two quarreled, Degray sent his men to forcibly tie people, and Azig personally cut Degray's men with a knife.

At that time, Abahai was looking for various opportunities to repair the three Azig brothers, and used this as an excuse to punish Azig very much. De Gray's face softened, and he waved his hand generously: "Actually, I am also at fault for that incident, people are willing to defect to you, and it is not wrong for you to accept it." Forget it, the past is over, and you can still come to see me at this time, I understand. ”

Azig lit the cigarette pouch pot, smashed it himself, and handed it to Degray.

"Tenth brother, this time I went to Daying Starling to stay for me to eat, and the fifth brother is also there."

"Well, how is your fifth brother?"

"The same old way. The eldest beyler and the starling sat at the top, and the fifth brother and the Mongolian taiji sat at the bottom. ”

"Humph!"

Degray puffed out a puff of smoke.

Azig said as he observed De Gray's reaction: "Tenth brother, something happened to Duo'er Hong. ”

Degray didn't care, "What could happen to that little clever ghost?" ”

Azig replied tentatively: "Duo'er Hong, well, Duo'er Hong left the camp the night before and was arrested on the other side. ”

Degray turned his head sharply and stared at Azig: "Really? ”

Azig dodged Degray's gaze, "Seriously. Yesterday, Duoduo pretended to be a white flag protector and crossed the river to see Duo'er Hong. The people on the other side of the strait are a man from two countries called the Iron Country and a Golden Country, and they want to redeem Duoduo Hong. ”

"No wonder the other side only talked to people who flew the white flag yesterday. Does Abahai know about this? ”

"Duo'er Hong was arrested, it happened before I went back to the camp, and the starling didn't know about it."

"You came to me, are you worried that Abahai will not be willing to redeem people after he finds out?"

"Hmm...... Well...... Tenth brother, brother, let me remind you, starling does not let people call him by his name, but must learn the name of the Mongolians to call him Huang Taiji. ”

"Phew!" , DeGray spat out. He was the same age as Abahai, and he had long been accustomed to calling Abahai's name, so he had to change his words under Azig's reminder: "Huang Taiji will definitely not agree to ransom people!" ”

Azig leaned forward, "So I'd like to ask the Blue Flag for a favor on this matter." ”

Degray took two deep puffs of his cigarette and handed it to the azig cigarette pouch pot.

"Azig, you didn't come until the end of the day, in fact, you should have come to me and your fifth brother a long time ago!"

DeGray taught his younger brother a lesson.

"At the beginning, Abahai cleaned up the big beylor, and no one of our brothers made a sound."

"When Abahai cleaned up Amin Bel again, none of us brethren had spoken out."

"When Abahai cleans up your fifth brother, there will still be no brothers to speak out except for me."

"Seeing that your fifth brother is about to finish, you said that when that time comes, who will Abahai clean up next? Who do you expect to speak up for you? ”

Azig took the cigarette pouch and smacked deeply, "Tenth brother, you are right to teach a lesson!" ”

"Okay, this favor is the Blue Flag help. Azig, remember what to do with your brother's two white flags next time if something happens to your fifth brother. ”

"Brother Ten, I know."

"Duo'er Hong's matter, sooner or later, I have to report it to the camp. Wait for you to send someone back to the camp to say hello, I have a few things to bring to your fifth brother. ”

By the time dawn, the forward camp of Aixinguo had already spread all over the country.

Dai Qing Belle was captured alive by the Tie Kingdom and the Jin Kingdom on the other side!

Dai Qing Belle is crazy!

The Iron Country and the Golden Kingdom want a ransom!

Regarding the ransom, there are various rumors, the most popular theory is that the iron country wants 10,000 livestock, and the gold country wants ten red-clothed cannons, ten beauties, 1,000 catties of sugar and 1,000 tamba mushrooms.

……

Yang Ritian, Sun Dingliao, and two staff officers rode the war horses that Duoduo handed over last night, and observed the terrain at the foot of Qingshan Mountain on the opposite bank along the west bank of the Yellow River.

The northern branch of the Yellow River bypasses at the foot of the abrupt mountain at Qingshanzui, merges with the southern branch of the Yellow River in Shannan, and then flows eastward. Between the foot of Qingshanzui and the Yellow River, a narrow steep slope path is formed.

If the coalition forces retreat along the Yellow River on a raft, Aixinguo will definitely send people to follow this route to the back of the mountain and go to the front of the mountain to pursue. This section of the Yellow River flows slowly, not to mention the war horses, even the infantry run faster than the rafts, and the pursuers who are bound to love the new country will run in front of the retreating coalition forces to block it.

On the contrary, if this steep land route connecting the north and south of Aoyama was blocked in advance, the men and horses of Aixinguo would have to make a detour to the ravine at the boundary between Aoyama and Daqingshan to the east of 150 li.

After several people selected more than a dozen dangerous terrains in a row, Yang Ritian secretly admired Sun Dingliao's old vision.

Yang Ritian proposed in a consultative tone whether it was possible to use the terrain at the foot of the green mountains to build a solid camp and get stuck in the throat of north-south traffic? Otherwise, even if the coalition forces destroy the passage, Aixinguo can send people to repair it.

Sun Dingliao hesitated a little and said: "If it was in the past, as long as the artillery guns were put on the camp, it would definitely be a good idea to hold on to the city. ”

He changed his words, "But in the Battle of Dalinghe last year, Aixinguo sent a Han army with forty Hongyi cannons, which caused heavy casualties to the defenders of Dalinghe City. The imperial reinforcements were routed, the defenders of the Daling River surrendered, and Ai Xinguo handed over all the guns and ammunition obtained to the Han army, and the number of various types of artillery equipped by the Han army increased greatly. Although this patriotic new country did not bring Hongyi cannons to the expedition, it carried an unknown number of general cannons and many tiger squat cannons. If Aixinguo attacks the camp with artillery, the casualties will probably not be small, and it is estimated that we will not be able to accept it. ”
