Ask for a monthly pass! Today's seven more broke out, and we will continue to work hard tomorrow! Great Rolo worship!

On the Julu field at night, there is a brilliant light, both the Mongolian and Ming and Tang coalition armies have left the Ming camp, and the lantern bonfire is dotted all over the wilderness, like two seas of stars facing each other far away.

The daytime battle ended with the victory of the Ming and Tang coalition forces in the first battle. The Mongol firearms forces were crushed by the Ming and Tang allied forces' archers, armor and cavalry. Even if the cavalry and horse team were used to counterattack, they were finally defeated by the Eight Banners.

In the end, Kublai Khan had to order his troops to be collected and returned to the camp, giving up the victory on the first day. It also left thousands of corpses and countless guns on the battlefield, and thousands of people were taken prisoner and escorted back to the camp of the Ming and Tang coalition forces, and now they are on display in various camps.

The morale of the Ming and Tang coalition forces was suddenly boosted!

After Li Cuixian reviewed the deployment for tomorrow's battle presented by Wang Lufei in the Chinese military camp, he called Li Xiong to patrol the camp together, and when he left the camp, he happened to see the light point of the rocket launched three or five miles away, and Li Cuixian smiled proudly. It was a rocket invented by Guo Shoujing of the Tiandao Academy in Mingdu, which was used to bombard Chen Dexing in the Battle of Zhuanghe in Liaodong. And now the Ming army is equipped with the fourth modification. The Daming Military Affairs Department named this rocket Ruosi-4 rocket. This kind of rocket has a range of about four miles, and although the accuracy is very poor, it is good to harass and signal.

As soon as it was dark, Wang Lufei sent a rocket company, under the cover of the Eight Banners, out of the camp to continuously harass the Mongols. The purpose was not to kill or injure, but to influence the night rest of the Mongols. Create an atmosphere of fear that will deplete their morale. If you're lucky. A few rockets fell among the Mongol horses, and the fun was great.

The Ming camp of the Ming army and the Tang army. In many ways, it is similar to the lantern as the banner of the night, and the lantern is marked with Arabic numerals and Chinese characters - because the military academy of the Ming army once also recruited generals from the capital, so Arabic numerals were also popularized in the Tang army.

Li Cuixian and Li Xiong led a team of guards, carrying the night patrol lanterns of the Chinese army, and walked to the camp of the Tang Army's Zuo Wuwei in the north.

As they walked, the two talked in a low voice.

"Princess, this victory is somewhat unexpected......"

But there was not much joy in Li Xiong's words. "I thought that the Mongols' firearms army was very powerful, but who knew that it was vulnerable! The firearms army was defeated. Kublai Khan was poor and relied on his mace...... Princess, this battle was won by you, is this credit too great? ”

It is not a good thing for the ministers to be high-spirited, but it is not for Li Cuixian...... It seems that something is wrong. Li Cuixian is actually the founding shareholder of the Ming Military and Political Group, and her reputation is already high, and now she has made such a contribution, how can she not be the shocker?

Li Cuixian sneered and shook her head slightly. "Where is King Ming's small belly chicken intestines? When did he ever suspect meritorious men? Moreover, I am the man of his house...... King Ming's path is different from that of previous kings, he is a god from heaven, why should he be suspicious of all sentient beings? You'll know when you go back. ”

Li Xiong nodded. The Li family in Yidu will naturally be divided into two in the future, and Li Yanguo's family will go overseas to build a country. Li Cuixian wants to be the queen of the Ming Dynasty -- naturally there must be a group of relatives as a backing. Although Li Xiong is only the adopted son of the Li family in Yidu, Wen Taowu is not bad, and he can be a man. After entering the Ming Dynasty, he will definitely become Li Cuixian's backer in the court.

Li Cuixian said again: "King Ming has always been fair, and you just have to do things with confidence after you enter the court." Don't worry...... The Ming Dynasty also has nothing to hide in the bow, because the Ming King is determined to be in the universe. To emulate the Zhou Dynasty, Xia Jun Yimin, together with the world, truly under the whole world, is not the king's land, the shore of the land, is not the king's minister! Therefore, there will be no shortage of expeditions in the future, and there will be no fewer opportunities for you to make meritorious contributions! ”

At this time, the two had already arrived at the camp gate of the Zuowu Guard Army's camp - the 100,000 Ming and Tang Dynasty coalition forces had a general camp, which was also divided into a semi-independent area, each with its own walled camp gate.

The soldiers of the Tang Army guarding the door naturally knew Li Xiong, but they still shouted: "Password!" ”

"Tiger!"

Li Xiong replied loudly. Then he took out his waist card and handed it to an officer on duty, and after the man checked the waist card, he came to Li Cuixian again. Li Cuixian also took out his waist card and handed it over, and the man looked at it carefully, and then saluted and let him go, but only opened the side door, allowing Li Cuixian, Li Xiong and others to enter through the side door.

This kind of rigor and caution is actually the characteristic of Li Xiong's use of soldiers. Don't look at his doughy and friendly face, he is also very gentle in dealing with people, like a businessman who Wishing you prosperity. But his army has always been the most disciplined and well-trained in the Yidu army. Li Xiong's characteristic of using troops is that he is meticulous and seamless.

In the camp of the Left Guard, there were officers patrolling everywhere, and they were cautious everywhere. If Kublai Khan wanted to send troops to rob the camp, it is estimated that nothing good would happen.

Li Cuixian nodded with satisfaction, her mind was to let Li Xiong serve as the garrison of Yanjing after entering the Ming Dynasty. It's not all because Li Xiong is her private, but also because of Li Xiong's rigor and carefulness, and of course, the necessary tactfulness.

When this battle is over, she will recommend it to Chen Dexing generously.

At this time, Li Cuixian had already climbed the watchtower with Li Xiong, raised her binoculars and looked at the Mongolian camp more than ten miles away. It seemed that for a while, he suddenly muttered in a low voice: "It seems to be murderous!" ”

"Murderous ......" Li Xiong also took out his binoculars and looked at it for a while, and there was a bit of a grim expression on his chubby face. There was no sign of retreat, Kublai Khan ...... Don't give up yet! ”

Both of them were no strangers to Kublai Khan. The Mongol Khan was not a hesitant man, and if he wanted to leave, he would have made preparations tonight - this was a long march of the army, and there were so many preparations that needed to be made, and it was impossible not to move at all.

"The Mongols are resting, and tomorrow there will be a bloody battle!" Li Cuixian smiled, "I don't know what Kublai Khan thinks, isn't today's lesson enough?" ”

……

In the Mongol military camp more than ten miles away from Li Cuixian, Kublai Khan was studying the map with a few henchmen in his golden-domed tent. There are Wuliang Hetai, Ashu, An Tong, Boyan, as well as Liu Bingzhong and Liu Xiaoyuan.

The map is a map of the Yanshan Mountains!

Although today's battle is only the first battle, Kublai Khan has already tried out the depth of the other party, and knows that it is impossible for him to defeat the 100,000 Ming and Tang coalition forces in front of him! If you can't defeat them, it's impossible to go to Henan, Shaanxi, and then to the Western Regions.

Therefore, I can only choose to cross the Yan Mountain and go to the Hetao in the Monan grassland.

Kublai Khan tapped lightly on the map and muttered, "It's easy to break Yan Mountain in one bite...... But it's hard to break the thief city! ”

Behind the ass is 100,000 pursuers, and there are 100,000 more elite pursuers who don't know where. In this case, if you want to attack a big city, you are looking for death.

"Great Khan, the minister can send an envoy to the enemy camp!" Liu Xiaoyuan hugged his fists and said, "If the ministers are not rotten, they will be called Li Cuixian......"

Kublai Khan waved his hand and said, "What did Li Cuixian do?" ”

It's really not, Li Cuixian can destroy Kublai Khan, but she can't let Kublai Khan go privately, because she didn't get Chen Dexing's authorization.

"Hit! Hurt them is! Kublai Khan took a deep breath and looked at Liu Bingzhong, "How long can the grain and straw last?" ”

"If Anyang's grain can be transported in time, it will save some more money...... When it can be supported for another month. Liu Bingzhong groaned, "If you can slaughter the pack horse, you can have more than half a month's food." ”

A month and a half! That is, 45 days, a daily march of 50 miles can walk 2,250 miles, but you can reach the Hetao.

But there was not much grain stored in the Hetao steppe, and hundreds of thousands of Mongolian troops went hungry! It's only the first month of the year, and there are still ten months left before the fat autumn of cattle and sheep! Relying on the grain stocks of Hetao and Lingzhou, it is impossible to support it at all.

"You can ask for grain from Uszang!" Liu Xiaoyuan proposed, "There are 130,000 households in Wusi!" ”

These 130,000 households were reported by Phags-pa himself, because the status of the Us-Tibet is special, and there is no need to pay tribute to the Mongols according to the size of the population, so these 130,000 households must have water -- in the era of Tibet's peaceful liberation in the later generations, the Tibetans may not have as many as 130,000 households!

Moreover, the vast territory and scattered population of Usz-Tibet made it difficult to transport it to Kublai Khan even if he could raise so much food.

"No!" Kublai Khan waved his hand and said, "Uss has a great use...... If we want to gain a foothold in the Western Regions, Wusizang is indispensable! ”

Kublai Khan's calculations are first-class Mongolian, second-class Han-Tibetan, and third-class colors!

The Mongols were in charge of the conquests, the Han Chinese were in charge of administration, the Usz-Tibetan lamas were in charge of religion, and the Semu people worked well...... At the same time, it is also cannon fodder!

There's no way, who makes the Western Regions the most colorful? They are not slaves and cannon fodder, who will?

"Great Khan, then we don't have as much food as much!"

Wuliang Hetai shook his head, he wasn't worried that he wouldn't be able to beat Yan Shan. As long as Chen Dexing's brain does not enter the water, he will not stop Kublai Khan from letting him go - if Kublai Khan goes to the Western Regions, he will have to fight with Hulegu and Brother Bei'er! Before they won or lost, Chen Dexing could be sure to clean up the Southern Song Dynasty!

And even if Kublai Khan pacified his brothers, most of them would not dare to come to the east to make trouble.

"Enough!" Kublai Khan gritted his teeth, "One dozen is enough!" Hit hard! ”

What do you mean?

Everyone present looked at each other, all confused. Can this military ration still be sold?

Kublai Khan took a sharp breath and said coldly: "There are fewer people to eat, isn't there enough food?" Let's go to the Western Regions...... You don't need so many people! What is the use of those 30,000 colors? Will there be fewer people in the Western Regions? Moreover, one person is dozens of catties of meat! 30,000 people is more than 1 million catties...... How can it be enough for 1440,000 troops to eat for more than ten or twenty days! (To be continued......)
