"Great victory, great victory, my Liaodong official army has recovered Tongzhou and Juyong Pass!"

In the capital, the silence of the night was suddenly broken by a loud shout, and some cavalry galloped through the streets and alleys, and the cavalry on horseback shouted loudly at the top of their voices.

"What's being yelling out there?"

"It seems that the champion has recovered Juyongguan and Tongzhou."

"How is this possible, I heard that the Mongols have occupied the place north of the Yellow River."

"What north of the Yellow River, I heard that the north of the Yangtze River is the territory of the Mongols."

"You say that Mengyuan will not be restored, right?"

"I heard my grandfather say that in the Yuan Dynasty, we were all like slaves, and I don't want to go back to that time."

"Listen, it seems that the official army of Liaodong has recovered Tongzhou and Juyong Pass, if I remember correctly, Zhenwuhou seems to be in Liaodong."

"Yes, some time ago, I read "Ming Xin Bao", Zhenwu Hou won three battles and three victories in Liaodong, and the Mongols lost their armor."

"It must be the Marquis of Zhenwu who led the Liaodong official army into the customs."

"No wonder we were able to recover Tongzhou and Juyong Pass, it turned out that Zhenwuhou came."

"In this case, Meng Yuan will not be restored again!"

……

The shouts of the cavalry alarmed the residents on both sides of the street, and people came out of their homes one after another, and gathered in groups to discuss, and the whole capital suddenly became noisy.

Forbidden City, Qianqing Palace.

Li Yuntian sat on the round stool at the place where Emperor Xuande was at his disposal, and told everything that had happened in the past two months, and heard Zhang Fu, Yang Shiqi, Jian Yi and others in the room nodding their heads one after another, secretly saying that they were surprised in their hearts, no one thought that Li Yuntian would venture into Daning City, and then successfully incorporated the Mongolian Wuliang Habu, and calmed the chaos in Liaodong in one fell swoop.

"Your Majesty, the minister once promised the three commanders of the Uliang Ha Department to make them earls, and asked the emperor to give them marriage, and the minister begged the emperor to give a mercy to the three commanders of the Uliang Ha Department." After telling what happened, Li Yuntian bowed his hand to Emperor Xuande and bowed down and said.

"Haha......" Emperor Xuande, who was coughing with a handkerchief, laughed loudly when he heard this, and laughed very happily, "Marquis Zhenwu, I have promised you that I will fully support what you are doing in Liaodong, and the three commanders of the Wuliang Habu will make them counts, and I will also give them marriages among the relatives." ”

For Emperor Xuande, if the Mongols of the Wuliang Habe can be attached, then not to mention the earl, it is not impossible to make them marquis.

The Mongols of the Uliang Habe could not only fight against the invasion of the Tatars and Warat for the Ming Dynasty, but most importantly, their annexation affected the direction of the war between the Ming Dynasty and the Northern Yuan, so that Li Yuntian could enter the pass to relieve the siege of the capital, so it had a very important significance, and it was a matter of shun to get a reward.

"Thank you, Emperor Longen." Li Yuntian had long known that Emperor Xuande would agree to him, so he bowed to Emperor Xuande with a smile, and then said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, the minister is going to wait for the war in Juyongguan and Tongzhou to immediately lead the army south to conquer the Guanxi rebels in the Daimyo Mansion, please ask the emperor to show how to deal with them." ”

"Marquis Zhenwu, what do you think of this?" Emperor Xuande pondered for a moment when he heard this, and asked quietly, he knew that Li Yuntian usually rarely threw questions at him, and once he raised a question, it meant that Li Yuntian already had a solution.

Zhang Fu and Yang Shiqi and others also looked at Li Yuntian, Li Yuntian entered the customs with an army of 180,000 this time, and after the three battles of the Mongolian army camp in front of Shanhaiguan, Juyong Pass and Tongzhou City, he could at least wave 100,000 troops south to the Daimyo's mansion, the combat effectiveness of these 100,000 horses was only stronger than the Guanxi soldiers, and Li Yuntian had firearms to help, so he would definitely be able to eliminate the men and horses of the Seven Guards of Guanxi.

However, judging from Li Yuntian's tone, it seemed that he didn't plan to clean up the people of the Kansai Seven Guards, so everyone wanted to know what he was thinking.

"Your Majesty, the Western Regions is a remote place of war, and the Seven Guards of Guanxi are a barrier in the northwest of my Ming Dynasty, once they are hit hard, then the Ming Dynasty will lose this protection in the northwest."

Li Yuntian thought for a while, and said solemnly to Emperor Xuande, "The Ming Dynasty needs to recuperate after this war with the Northern Yuan, and has no time to take care of the affairs of the Western Regions. ”

"Your Majesty, the minister feels that what the Marquis of Zhenwu said is very true, although the Seven Guards of Guanxi are usually unruly and unruly, but they have been stable and uneventful in the northwest of my Ming Dynasty, and they have repeatedly fought with the invading Tatars, Warats and Western Regions countries, but they are a barrier in my northwest."

As soon as Li Yuntian's words fell, Zhang Fu said in a deep voice, there have been a lot of things in the Western Regions in recent years, so he is also very concerned about the Western Regions, and knows that Li Yuntian's worries are not groundless.

Although there was a rebellion in the Kansai Seven Guards this time, it was not the time to put them to death in the long run, otherwise the northwest of the Ming Dynasty would inevitably have border troubles in the future, which can be described as endless troubles.

"But is that all there is to it?" Yang Shiqi frowned and looked at Emperor Xuande when he heard this, as early as when the Guanxi Qiwei had just entered Beizhili, the imperial court had received a report that they were burning, killing and looting along the way, so Yang Shiqi hated those Guanxi soldiers very much.

Yang Rong and Jian Yi and other civilian officials couldn't help but nod their heads, those Guanxi soldiers must have done evil in Beizhili in the past two months, and if they are not punished, they will not be able to explain to those victimized people.

"Your Majesty, the minister knows that those Guanxi soldiers are extremely evil, but instead of exterminating them in Beizhili, it is better to let them go to the Western Regions to merge with Turpan and other national fires to protect the northwest frontier of the Ming Dynasty."

Li Yuntian groaned for a moment when he heard this, and said to Emperor Xuande in a deep voice, "The ministers will severely punish the first evil of oppressing the people in the Seven Guards of Guanxi, and give the people an explanation. ”

Emperor Xuande felt that Li Yuntian's words were reasonable, and he couldn't help but bow slightly, the national policy of the Ming Dynasty for the Western Regions is to check and balance, and now Turpan and other countries are attacking the Guanxi Seven Guards, and the Seven Guards of the Guanxi will definitely fight with them after they go back, and the casualties on both sides will be heavy at that time, and the Ming Dynasty can take the opportunity to strengthen the control of the Seven Guards of the Guanxi and stabilize the stability of the Northwest Frontier.

Yang Shiqi and Yang Rong, Jian Yi, Hu Ying and others glanced at each other and then stopped talking, I have to say that Li Yuntian's strategic vision is far-sighted, and the disposal of the Guanxi Qiwei is the most in line with the interests of the Ming Dynasty, otherwise once the Guanxi Qiwei loses the Ming Dynasty, the northwest will fall into turmoil, and not only the lives of the people in the northwest will be in danger, but also the Ming Dynasty will spend a lot of manpower, material resources and financial resources to deal with it.

Li Yuntian stayed in the palace until the early hours of the morning before leaving with Zhang Fu and others, and Emperor Xuande's interest tonight seemed to be very high, and it was the happiest day after returning to Beijing from the Northern Expedition.

Due to the busy affairs at hand, Li Yuntian did not stay at home for long, and went to the military camp of the Xiaowu Army in the capital early the next morning, summoned the musket battalion and artillery battalion in the military camp for a lecture, and then asked him to go out of the city to join the musket battalion and artillery battalion of the Liaodong Ming Army outside the city.

This time he went south to conquer the Seven Guards of the Kansai Empire, and Li Yuntian prepared to use the firearms troops as the main force of the attack, which would not only give the Seven Guards of the Southwest a dismount, but also test the effectiveness of the firearms troops in the battle on the battlefield.

"Great victory, the official army pacified Liaodong, and 100,000 Mongolian soldiers surrendered!"

"The official army of Liaodong recaptured Juyongguan and Tongzhou yesterday and took many prisoners."

"The official army is ready to vigorously clear the Northern Yuan soldiers in Beizhili, and the end of the war is just around the corner."

……

When Li Yuntian rushed to the barracks in his four-wheeled carriage, the newspaper boys on the street were shouting and selling today's "Mingxin Pao" in their hands, causing passers-by along the road to rush to buy and find out what was going on.

Last night, the cavalry galloping in the streets and alleys only mentioned the great victory of the Ming army, and did not explain the relevant information, which made the people in the capital feel curious, and the gossip on the market was full of rumors, and the next day's "Ming Xin Bao" naturally became the target of everyone's rush to buy, and from the previous experience, "Ming Xin Bao" will report on the inside story.

Sure enough, "Ming Xin Pao" lived up to expectations, and there was indeed a report on the victory of the Ming army in the newspaper, which attracted the people to buy it and want to see it.

Today, "Ming Xin Pao" has become an indispensable part of the life of the people in Beijing, as long as there are economic conditions people must subscribe to "Ming Xin Pao", not only to understand the customs and customs of the north and south, strange people and strange things, but also to control the political trends of the Ming Dynasty.

In the afternoon, Li Yuntian, who was discussing with Zhang Fu and others in the military pavilion, received a battle report from the Ming army that had attacked Tongzhou City, and the Ming army set up an ambush in the south of Tongzhou City, surrounded and annihilated the Mongolian army that fled from Tongzhou City, and captured many senior generals of the Mongolian army such as Arutai, which can be described as a complete victory.

However, it is a pity that the leader of Warat, Tuhuan, had already left Tongzhou City for Datong a few days ago, so Shun Lì escaped this time.

Leaving with Tuohuan is also Ah Qiu, who Li Yuntian has always wanted to see very much, because Tuohuan and Ah Qiu are very low-key this time, so few people know about this matter.

It is worth mentioning that although Arutai and Tuhuan have formed an alliance, in private the two rarely communicate because of previous grievances, and besides, Tuhuan and Arutai did not act together, Arutai put the goal on Beizhili, and Tuhuan focused on the Shanxi Xingdu Division, and only when he encountered important affairs, Tuhuan would come to Arutai to discuss.

In other words, Li Yuntian came one step late, and if he could lead the army to arrive a few days earlier, he would wipe out Arutai and Tuhuan.

To tell the truth, Li Yuntian is more afraid of Dehuan than Arutai, after all, Dehuan killed Arutai, Bald Polo and Taiping in history, and can be described as a generation of heroes on the grassland.

In Li Yuntian's view, Tuhuan is smarter than Arutai, and Tuhuan did not rush from Juyong Pass to Datong like Arutai but chose to stay in Datong City, which means that he is full of vigilance about the current battle situation.

On the surface, it seems that the Mongol army has broken through the Juyong Pass and it seems to be extremely beneficial to them, but in fact, there is also a huge potential risk that once the Ming army recaptures the Juyong Pass, then the Mongol troops who enter the northern Zhili will become the turtle in the urn.

Although the Ming army of Wanquan Dusi did not have the ability to recapture Juyong Pass, but the Liaodong Dusi was an unstable factor, after all, Shanhaiguan was in the hands of the Ming army, and if the army of Liaodong Dusi suddenly went south from Shanhaiguan, then Juyongguan would be in danger.

In the final analysis, if the Uliang Habu really wanted to tear their faces with the Ming Dynasty and completely stiffen them, then they would definitely send troops to assist the Tatars and Warat in attacking the Liaodong Dusi, but they did not do this but guarded the Shanhaiguan on the grounds of blocking the Ming army from going north to avoid further conflict with the Ming army, which made Tuhuan a little suspicious in his heart.

If the Tatars and Warat take the initiative on the battlefield, it is okay, and the Uliang Habu will definitely honestly assist them in the battle, but once the Ming army has the upper hand, then the attitude of the Uliang Habu is likely to change, after all, the Uliang Habu has been assimilated by the Ming Dynasty for many years, and it has long been different from the Tatars and Warat, and has actually accepted the Ming Dynasty psychologically.

Facts show that Tuhuan is really better than Arutai's skills, and then escaped the fate of being captured with Arutai.

However, to Li Yuntian's relief, Gu Chen stayed in Beizhili because he assisted the Mongol generals under Arutai in attacking the city, and he could not escape no matter what.
