Qi Boer put down the teacup in his hand, stood up, and said, "Xiao Yi, I want to go to the front to have a look, how about it?" ”

Xiao Yi was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, the war ahead has just stopped, I'm afraid it's inconvenient to go-top-point-small-say-"

Qi Boer waved his hand and said, "Having said that, think about it, if the boy wants to go, will you dissuade him like this?" ”

I really didn't think about it, if the boy wanted to go, he really didn't dare to say that. Xiao Yi had no choice but to smile bitterly and said truthfully: "The slave doesn't dare to dissuade her." ”

"I thought, if the boy was here, he would definitely go and see it." Qi Bo'er smiled and said, "Xiao Yi, you know the relationship between me and Tong Gongzi, and you also know the reason why I stayed in Tumu Fort, if I don't show up after winning the battle, do you think it's appropriate?" ”

"This ......", Xiao Yi lowered his head and said, "The slave doesn't know, but the slave knows that if the boy is here, he will definitely go to see it." ”

"That's it!" Qi Boer nodded and said: "I also think clearly, I have no other relatives in this world except for Brother Tong, the eldest brother is closer to me than my own brother, as a younger brother, what I can do for the eldest brother, I will definitely work hard to do it!" Now that the Tile Thorns are surrounding the civil fort, I stay here, I am willing, because I think it is worth doing this for the eldest brother! Of course, I won't go outside the civil fort, I won't go to those trenches and defenses, as a stand-in for the big brother. Although I can go, the emperor's identity does not allow me to go. Didn't you say that there are some grassroots generals who don't believe that the emperor is in Tumubao? Then I'll go to the tower of the West Gate City. Let the soldiers know that the emperor is with them in the civil fort! ”

Xiao Yi nodded, hurriedly bowed to the promise, turned around and went out to make arrangements......

Wu Keqin, Li Zhen and other military attachΓ©s witnessed the entire battle situation with their own eyes on the tower of the West Gate City, and they couldn't help but be dumbfounded. It was only when their own soldiers stepped forward to clear the battlefield that they were relieved. After the improvement of the imperial court, the thunder and the divine fire flying crow were so sharp, I really never expected it! They couldn't help but whisper excitedly.

Wu Keqin turned his head and saw Jin Liang and Chen Ji looking ahead. Unmoved, as if everything was under their control, they couldn't help but step forward slowly. said: "General Jin, I don't know what the casualties of our army are? ”

Jin Liang saw Wu Keqin coming to ask, so he hurriedly turned around and bowed his hand and said, "Go back to Wu Dudu, just now the front-line flag returned." One hundred and thirty-six officers and men of our army were wounded by arrows. All were minor injuries, and the number of casualties was zero! ”

One hundred and thirty-six people were slightly wounded, and the number of casualties was zero? Wu Keqin was dumbfounded and stunned.

Seeing his expression, Jin Liang explained: "This is the temptation of the Tile Thorns, and it is the slave army that has been dispatched, and the combat strength is low, and the minefield has appeared for the first time. The Divine Fire Crow was in full swing, and the Tile Thorns did not engage our army in a short engagement. That's what happened. ”

Even so, this casualty situation is still terrifying!

Wu Keqin didn't know what to say, but he just bowed his hand and retreated to the military attachΓ©s.

The conversation between the two made the military attaches silent. They all thought about this kind of firearm that gives full play to the long-range combat power, and it seems that firearms are really much more powerful than weapons such as swords, guns, swords, and halberds!

Tumubao stabbed in Yexian's heart like a stinger, although it was just a temptation just now, but none of the more than 10,000 people who were tempted came back, and it was still a big blow to him! And the mysterious army that looked like the Oirat Department in the depths of the steppe, like a dagger, pierced him in the back of the heart, making him even more restless. This army is not only disrupting his base camp, but also challenging his prestige! If he can't quickly end the battle of Tumubao and return to the grassland, he will face a scene of falling apart!

He looked at Boyan Timur and was speechless for a long time. Although he forcibly subordinated that army to the Oirats department, the words of the second brother just now still made him suspicious. Yes, if the Oirat Department wants to attack the Korqin Department, why is it so blatant? He absolutely believed in his authority, which the old fellow would not dare to challenge! An army of more than 2,000 people is not something that a small tribe can afford, but the tribes on the grassland that can support such an army are all among the battles this time? The horse bandits didn't dare to brush the tiger's whiskers, not to mention that if there were horse bandits with such combat power on the grassland, they would have known it a long time ago!

"Ala's second son is in the camp at the east gate of Tumubao, and the eldest brother can be appeased. Fortunately, Aramira's subordinates are all in front of the West Gate at the moment, and Aramiro is ambushed, and the news has not yet reached the front, so the eldest brother can quickly send people to seize the military power. Seeing that his face was full of bitterness, Boyan Timur knew that he understood, and said: "Our Horqin Department cannot break with the Oirat Department at present, especially when this is deep into the interior of the Ming Dynasty. ”

Ye Xian nodded and said, "That's all it takes." The second brother can come forward and immediately go to the front line, saying that the master left Aramiro to watch the battle. The whole army rested for three days, taking turns to harass the defenders of Tumubao, and three days later, at one o'clock in the morning, our army launched a general attack, and the second brother drove them to take the lead! ”

Before he could finish speaking, he heard a burst of shouts outside.

Boyan Timur's face changed, and he said anxiously: "Big brother, the Southern Barbarian Emperor has come out!" ”

Hearing it first, he and Boyan Timur hurriedly stood up and hurriedly stepped out of the caravan.

As soon as the two of them got out of the caravan and walked to the front, they saw jubilation inside and outside the civil fort.

On the tower of the west gate of the civil fort, a huge canopy swayed. The shouts of long live up and down the city walls are earth-shattering.

I was also very excited. Sure enough, it's here! Sure enough, I was surrounded by myself!

"Zarba, where are my reinforcements?" He also suddenly opened his mouth and shouted.

At this time, Zarpa, who was immediately next to Polo Timur, heard Yexian's question, and was busy among the generals who were talking, slowly approached the caravan and replied urgently: "Back to Taishi, the first batch of reinforcements sent by Datong direction of 30,000 horses has passed the East Bali Fort at this moment, and they are coming day and night, and they can arrive at half an o'clock tonight." The second group of 20,000 people has arrived at Sham Tseng Fort, and it is estimated that they will arrive here the morning after tomorrow! ”

"Good! After the order, prepare a meal for them and prepare a night meal for them. As soon as they arrived, they began to eat, and there were ten thousand lifu in the back camp, so they were ordered to start setting up an account for them now. When the 30,000 troops are finished eating, they are urgently ordered to rest! Waiting for orders! "I can't wait for the reinforcements of the two routes, and the 50,000 troops are in the camp at this moment.

Zarba was ordered to make arrangements......

Tong Hang was also standing on the mountain with Wang Ji and other civil ministers at this moment, overlooking the movement of the civil fort in the distance.

"Well, that's good!" Tong Hang nodded and said, "This trick is good!" More attractive also! ”

When Wang Ji heard this, he hurriedly arched his hand and said loudly: "Your Majesty, although this trick is good. But that Qi Boer made such a kingless and fatherless move, his heart can be punished! At the end of this battle, this man should be secretly executed! ”

Kuang Kun next to Wang Ji, Wang Zhi, the secretary of the ministry, Wang Zuo, the secretary of the household department, and others also said again and again: "The ministers seconded the proposal!" ”

"Extraordinary times do extraordinary things!" Tong Hang turned around. smiled and said, "What's more, Qi Boer was the first I asked him to pretend to be me in the Tumu Fort. ”

"The minister knows that my emperor is wise and martial, and his plan is natural! Qi Boer could have pretended to hide in the civil fort, but he actually appeared in public and went to the West Gate Tower to accept the call of the soldiers. The emperor must not be merciful in this matter! If so. After that, the hairpin will be endless, I hope the emperor will think twice! ”

Kuang Kun, Wang Zhi, Wang Zuo and others hurriedly said in unison: "The ministers seconded the proposal!" ”

Seeing that Tong Hang was unmoved, Wang Ji's face was suddenly full of indignation, and he said: "Your Majesty, you have always been loyal to your ears. The old minister knew that he had committed Qi Boer in this way, and he was suspected of criticizing the emperor's scheme. But the old minister has a sincere heart, and he is willing to be at the end of the war and when Qi Boer is guilty. Suffer at the same time as him! ”

Kuang Kun, Wang Zhi, Wang Zuo and others looked at each other, how could they dare to second? 1. Seconding the proposal is suspected of criticizing the emperor's scheme. Still...... Still suffering? They were dumbfounded.

When Tong Hang heard Wang Ji's words and saw everyone's embarrassed looks, he couldn't help but be angry and funny. Shaking his head, he said, "Why did Lord Wang say this? I know your sincerity. This, think about it, if Qi Boer hides in the civil fort and doesn't come out, our army knows that the emperor is in the civil fort, do the tile spurs know? I don't know ......."

"Your Majesty!" Wang Ji suddenly interrupted Tong Hang's words.

It seems that this stubborn old man is really stubborn, and he dares to interrupt the emperor's words. Kuang Kun, Wang Zhi, Wang Zuo and others couldn't help but raise their heads and look at Wang Ji in dismay.

"Lord Wang." Kuang Kun hurriedly whispered beside him.

Wang Ji was unmoved, and when he saw the emperor looking at him, he said excitedly: "Your Majesty, no matter how critical the situation is, we as courtiers should keep in mind our duty, and the etiquette cannot be abolished!" ”

Tong Hang nodded, sighed deliberately, straightened his face and said, "Yes, no matter how critical the situation is, the etiquette cannot be abolished!" I wonder if Lord Wang interrupted me when I opened my mouth, if it was a violation of etiquette? ”

Wang Ji was dumbfounded.

"Actually, Lord Wang is in such a hurry to speak, and I know that it is out of loyalty. Na Qi Boer appeared in the West Gate Tower, so as to inform the Emperor of the Tile Tspur people that he was in the Tumu Fort, also out of loyalty. ”

"The old minister ......", Wang Ji never expected that the emperor would seize on his own point to make a fuss. In the past, above the court, interrupting the emperor's words was nothing new. He suddenly realized that it was the fake son Qi Boer who was sitting in the court before! When this emperor went to court, he was full of majesty, and it seemed that no one dared to interrupt him!

Tong Hang nodded, pretending to wake up, turned to look at Tumubao, frowned with his hand, and said, "I understand, I understand!" Lord Wang was remorseful for interrupting me, and felt that it was against the law of etiquette. Well, Lord Wang doesn't have to feel guilty, I forgive you for your innocence! Of course, the same is true of Ziboer, and I will forgive him for his innocence! ”

"Old minister......", when Wang Ji heard it, he was immediately anxious! How can Qi Boer's matter be compared to his own interruption of the emperor's words?

Seeing that Wang Ji was about to speak again, his old brother Wang Zuo was anxious and hurriedly reached out to cover his mouth. Seeing that Wang Ji was about to open Wang Zuo's hand, Kuang Kun hurriedly hugged Wang Ji's hand. Although Wang Zhi was much younger than them, he didn't care about anything at this time, and hurriedly pulled a few civil officials next to him, and everyone stepped forward to hug Wang Ji's body, raised it and secretly hid behind other civil officials.

Qin Tianjian Zheng Peng Deqing, Dali Temple Right Temple Cheng Xiao Weizhen, and Yang Shan, the left attendant of the Ministry of Rites, hurriedly stepped forward to block them.

Tong Hang's eyes had already caught their movements, and he pretended not to see them. With a smile, he took out the telescope clipped under his armpit, and said leisurely while scanning the civil fort in the distance below the mountain: "Lord Wang, if you don't speak, you will say that you are seconding my words!" Okay, I won't say much, let's go and rest, I want to stay here alone for a while. ”

As soon as they heard the emperor's order, Kuang Kun, Wang Zhi, Wang Zuo and others immediately breathed a sigh of relief. The crowd retreated in unison.

As soon as everyone left, Tong Hang put down the binoculars in his hand and asked, "Where is Director Li?" ”

Hao Tianyang, who was next to him, hurriedly replied: "Director Li is waiting behind." ”

"Call him over, I have something to ask him."

Hao Tianyang hurriedly made a gesture to the guard next to him, and when the guard saw it, he hurriedly ran to the wooden house behind.

After a while, Li Luoqing ran over with the guard.

"How's the situation going?"

"Go back to the emperor. In the east, more than 5,000 cavalry and 30,000 foot soldiers and horses in Yanqing Zuowei, Yongning City, Liugou Camp and other places have assembled outside Yanqing Prefecture, and Chengguo Gong has entered the barracks at noon today. In the south, the Zhenbian City, Baiyangkou, Changyu City, Yanqing Zhongwei, Huailaiwei and other places totaled 2,000 cavalry and 13,000 foot soldiers, and they had assembled in Yanqing's right guard. ”

Tong Hang nodded. Although the distance between Yanqing Youwei and Tumubao is only thirty or forty miles, Pingchuan is a horse, but because of the barrier of the Fu River, Pingchuan has also become a moat. More than 10,000 troops stationed in several estuarine dock fortresses should not be a problem!

Seeing that Tong Hang didn't say anything, Li Luoqing continued: "Because of the short distance, although Gong Shun Bo set off after Cheng Guogong, he had already arrived at Yanqing Right Guard before Cheng Guo Gong, and according to the information returned, Gong Shun Bo had deployed heavy troops at several estuary docks, cavalry patrols, and a team of 5,000 foot soldiers in the center. ”

Tong Hang said to Hao Tianyang: "Map." ”

Hao Tianyang hurriedly took out the map from his satchel, and a personal guard ran over and stood in front of Tong Hang with him to open the map.

Tong Hang checked the terrain around the Fu River and asked, "Are the 5,000 foot soldiers stationed in Yulin Fort?" ”

"Yes!"

Tong Hang nodded and said, "Go on!" ”

"In the north, there are only 50,000 soldiers and horses in Baoanzhou, and the wartime strength is only 21,000, only 1,500 cavalry, and more than 19,000 foot soldiers, all of whom have been assembled in Woniu Mountain. The British Duke has already entered the camp. This is the echo of the British public biography. After that, Li Luoqing showed the British Gong Zhang Fu's recital.

Tong Hang took it and unfolded it, nodded after looking at it, and said, "Twenty-one thousand people, it is indeed a few." If you flee back from the way you came, you will have to take the road of Dongbalibao, and then more than 19,000 foot soldiers want to block the tens of thousands of defeated troops of the tile spurs, how easy is it to talk about? Moreover, these 19,000 foot soldiers are not a new army equipped with firearms. Well, what about the army rushing to the aid of Shanxi? ”

"The western part of Shanxi did not dare to move because it was necessary to guard against the attack of the Naluwa spur army attacking Ganzhou. The eastern part of the country itself has few men and horses, and in addition to the necessary defenses, only 16,000 troops and horses can be mobilized. However, after General Li Jiuyi was stationed in Datong, he left a thousand vans of new troops in Hunyuan Prefecture! This new army of 1,000 vans is rushing to Woniu Mountain. ”

"Good! The combat power of this thousand-van new army is huge, and it is several times stronger than the armies of various places in sniper warfare! Tong Hang nodded happily and said, "Decree the British Duke, this new army of 1,000 vans will give them full combat sovereignty!" ”

Li Luoqing hurriedly promised.

"What about the north? Then Luo Hengxin refused to obey the edict? ”

Li Luoqing nodded.

"That's all this guy is not good at! The Queen Mother has already said it! Regardless of him! There is a Luoshan mountain to the north of this civil fort, and if you want to escape from here to join Tokhokbuhua, the 13,000 new troops left behind by the sea chief are enough! ”

Tong Hang waved his hand happily, signaled Hao Tianyang to put away the map, raised the binoculars and looked at the camp at the west gate of Tumu Fort.

When will the general offensive be launched first? It is better not to be too early, lest the British Gongzhang auxiliary office in the north be undermanned. The pocket is about to take shape, so don't let me down...... (To be continued......)
