The shopkeeper's secret way was lucky, almost lost his life here, drove the horse to gallop and was about to escape, suddenly a small team of men and horses stopped in front of him, the security army did not participate in the Mongol attack after the cannon, and sent people to guard the surroundings to catch the fish that slipped through the net. When the shopkeeper saw that he had been stopped from escaping, he was ruthless, drew out his knife, and rushed straight to the centaurs who stopped him, ready to fight one for enough, and for two to earn one, in case he rushed out, he would earn it all.

When the security guards saw the shopkeeper rushing towards him, they did not go to meet him, but sat on his horse and raised his musket, and when a gunshot rang out, the shopkeeper fell from his horse, and some team members dragged his body and threw it back into the car formation.

Under Gui Yingcha's loud reprimand, the Mongol cavalry finally stopped looting the property and concentrated on clearing the remaining caravan personnel.

It was a successful ambush, all the caravan personnel were killed or captured, a large amount of cargo was captured.

Although the security forces only fired a few shots at the fleeing caravan personnel, Gui Yingcha kept his promise and divided all the goods into two parts, one for the security forces and one for the Mongols.

Guiyingcha transported the goods and prisoners back to Guihua City, and Zhang Chu, a copy of the security army, unceremoniously accepted it and transferred it back to Fugu. This kind of trade can do not have many casualties, and it is very profitable, the morale of the coalition army is greatly boosted, and the march and battle do not feel bitter. The coalition forces continued to wait for the appearance of other caravans on the steppe.

Gui Yingcha and Zhang Chu were idle, quietly waiting for the new news to come. The two had time to sit together and talk about the day, to dispel the loneliness on the grassland.

Guiying was very dissatisfied with the performance of his cavalry in battle, and he was disgraced by the fact that he grabbed his property first and did not concentrate on killing the enemy. Zhang Chu reminded himself in advance that before the war, he had also made repeated orders, but it did not work at all during the war, and sometimes he really wanted to punish those soldiers who robbed property, but many people participated. The sheer number of people made it impossible for him to start.

On the other hand, the security army is not moved by property in battle, concentrates on fighting, and usually orders and prohibitions, and the whole team appears to be standardized and neat. Orders were executed very quickly.

The discipline of the team is very good for improving combat effectiveness, and Gui Yingcha couldn't help but ask Zhang Chu for advice when he was chatting with Zhang Chu about how he trained the security army to be like this.

Zhang Chu saw his humble appearance and decided to teach him.

The two sat down and taught Zhang Chu from the beginning, the soldiers first required the generals to be fair, so that the disciplined soldiers could not suffer, and then continued to cultivate in daily life, insisted on every day, and the soldiers would habitually follow the orders of the commander when fighting. Zhang Chu knew, of course, that it was impossible to train real soldiers under the semi-slavery system of the Mongols. However, it is also good to let Guiyingcha have some advanced ideas.

Zhang Chu also took out the booklet of the security army compiled by Zhu Jishi and showed it to Guiyingcha, and carefully explained the content to him. Seeing that he was serious about learning, Zhang Chu simply gave him the booklet.

Gui Yingcha carefully studied the booklet, and the more he read, the more he felt that what he said made sense, and if he had any doubts, he went to Zhang Chu to ask for advice, and the two often talked for a long time. Gui Yingcha found that Zhang Chu would have so much knowledge that he didn't know, and Zhang Chu was such a great person.

New news came one after another, and the coalition forces were dispatched again to wipe out several caravans that had penetrated deep into the steppe and looted the goods. For a time, the merchants in Zhangjiakou were panicked. Don't dare to go deep into the grasslands to do business.

Among them, the biggest loss is Fan Yongdou's business name. In the old house of the Fan family in Zhangjiakou, Fan Yongdou listened to a guy's report with a gloomy face. The guy peeked at the boss's expression while reporting, and his heart was full of uneasiness. The words in his mouth did not dare to stop: "This group of robbers only appeared more than ten days ago, no one dared to touch our caravan before, they were extremely vicious, not only robbed our caravan, but also several other caravans did not let go, the robbers not only robbed the property, but even the caravan guards did not know whether they were killed or locked up somewhere, and now there is no news." The robbers were accurate in each shot, indicating that someone was watching the caravan and figured out the route of the caravan, judging that the Mongols might have done it based on the clues left behind. But there is no conclusive evidence. "Is there anything else to keep an eye on?" Fan Yongdou asked expressionlessly. "Now the merchants have rarely gone out of Zhangjiakou, they are afraid of being robbed, I heard that in Shaanxi there is a thief named Zhang Chu who occupied Fugu, opened a commercial street to trade with the Mongols, and some merchants have changed routes from there to get out of the customs." The man's answer attracted Fan Yongdou's attention, and he couldn't help asking: "The thief occupies a place and doesn't leave, and still makes a deal with the Mongols?" "It's true, the thief named Zhang Chu is different, he first defeated Wang Jiayin, who is also a thief, and then repelled the officers and troops who went to clear the valley, occupied Fugu and did not leave, but also opened the pass and started to do business, and the goods can enter the grassland from Fugu." The guy replied with what he knew.

"Is it possible that Zhang Chu's thief did the robbery of the caravan?" Fan Yongdou felt that Zhang Chu had benefited from the robbery of the caravan. "It's hard to say, he is still separated from the place of the accident by the Mongols." The guy doesn't really understand this either. "Okay, you go down." Fan Yongdou saw that he couldn't ask why, so he waved his hand and let the guy retreat.

Whoever did it had to be resolved. The Fan family is different from others, other people can go to Fugu to make a living with the Mongols, but the Fan family can't, the main trade object of the Fan family is Houjin, and now they have won the trust of Houjin, and they have made a lot of money by smuggling grain and weapons embargoed by the court to Houjin, and they can't easily give up this financial route.

The Fan family's caravan had more than 200 guards, and a large number of men followed, and none of them ran back after an accident, indicating that the robbers were very powerful, and they could not be dealt with by the Fan family alone.

Fan Yongdou wrote a letter to Huang Taiji, explaining what happened, asking Huang Taiji to send troops to exterminate this gang of robbers, and asked the guy to go to Huang Taiji with the letter.

Huang Taiji received the letter and attached great importance to this matter, and now he is actively preparing for the war, preparing to fight Lin Dan Khan again and grab his territory, so that the power of Houjin will be even greater. Maybe you can compete with Da Ming. The goods brought by Fan Yongdou are very important and are all necessary items for entering the army.

Huang Taiji immediately summoned the ministers to discuss, and the ministers all agreed to send troops to destroy the bandits. Huang Taiji's eldest son, Hao Ge, took the initiative to ask for his life, and wanted to personally lead the troops to suppress the bandits, at this time Hao Ge was just in his twenties, and he was full of fanaticism about war. Huang Taiji wanted to exterminate a few robbers, it should not be dangerous, just so that he could achieve some military exploits and establish prestige. For the sake of safety, send more soldiers to help him.

So Huang Taiji dispatched 5,000 Houjin cavalry to suppress the bandits under the leadership of Haoge.

The Golden Cavalry of the 5,000 post-5,000 generations is a very powerful force on the grassland. Hauge walked majestically on the prairie with a large group of men, and he was full of confidence in eliminating the robbers. (To be continued.) )
