For the next two months, the game of cat and mouse continued to be staged, but the opponent's cavalry sneak attacks were rare, but between the vastness of the northern border, the captives still felt overwhelmed. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

A total of 300 cavalry and nearly 1,000 mounted infantry put together continued to rescue and patrol in the wilderness, and even Zhao Lie personally dispatched twice, because the other party was a cold weapon, the arrows basically had no effect on Zhao Lie, and against hand-to-hand combat, Zhao Da and the others were really not worried, so they did not stop him, let him go into battle and enjoy it.

At the end of August, the long-waiting cavalry Qian Zong finally set out from Fangmao Port and advanced eastward, in fact, they had arrived for more than ten days, but most of the war horses were sluggish after more than ten days of wind and waves, and even died of more than 50 horses.

Therefore, they could only recuperate in Fangmao Port, and at the same time requisitioned more than 800 Jeju horses from Fangmao Port as spare horses for training, and only after the horses recovered their strength, they drove east.

Outside the Beida camp, the cavalry commander Ma Quanfu, and the cavalry below the deputy commander Wang Haizhou saluted Zhao Lie's military salute, and Zhao Lie saluted in return.

Seeing the banner waving and the arrival of the new force with bright armor, the grievances of the past two months were swept away.

Due to the excessive occupation of military horses, the cavalry Qian Zong built a new battalion on the east side of the Beida camp, and in the noise of people shouting and neighing, Zhao Lie summoned Ma Quanfu, Lu Dengzhou and others to discuss the battle plan in the Beida camp.

"I ordered the cavalry to draw out eight hundred, divided into four teams, each with two hundred men and horses, one man and two horses deep into the enemy's territory, and when they encountered the enemy's villages were burned, the horses were brought back, the fishing grounds and forest farms were burned, and the enemy brigades came to avoid the battle, and the small teams came to eat them. In a word. It is to leave them without food and drink. Crying and screaming through the cold winter. Forcing them to either stay away, or fight us in a decisive battle. Zhao Lie said murderously.

Ma Quanfu shrank his neck and felt Zhao Lie's anger, how aggrieved is it to be so angry, he silently mourned to the Anui people.

Ma Quanfu and Wang Haizhou agreed loudly at the same time, and the two laughed from ear to ear.

"Old Ma, Lao Wang, you have a good job, and you can do it with real guns and knives with the enemy. It's like me and others are everywhere to help, busy, the Anui people don't leave their hands, they just don't play against you, it's really panicked. Luden said enviously.

Ma Quanfu and Wang Haizhou laughed even more, very proud.

"Lao Wang, if you stay here, I'll take the troops out, I said, don't worry. I'm pretty good at riding。。。。。 Huang Maolin said half-truthfully.

"Lao Huang, I said. Our cavalry Qianzong didn't go through the battle formation seriously, your infantry army fought Jeju, Tieshan, Beihua, our cavalry didn't even touch a hair, you also robbed it, I said, you Lao Huang is too not a thing. The rough Wang Haizhou glared angrily and scolded.

Ignoring the laughter of a few people, Zhao Lie went back to the tent to rest, these days have exhausted him, and now that his subordinates have arrived, as the lord, it is time to take a good rest.

Riding on a Jeju horse, Yanayahi led two hundred cavalry of the Broken Army to approach the dwelling of a small tribe by a river, but it was nothing more than a thatched hut with a fence outside, but it was obviously a defense against wild beasts, and it did not have much effect on the enemy.

The cavalry of the Breakers approached the fence at the entrance of the village in the early morning mist, unguarded, after all, it was in the northern interior, and there was no fighting.

Dozens of sprawlers gathered outside the village, and the remaining 100 or so sprawlers silently entered the village and began to clean up the people from house to house, cutting off the thumb of their right hand for all young and strong men, and driving other women, children, old and weak, outside.

For a while, the whole village cried and shouted, and the helpless crying of the Anui people made Yanayahi also feel uneasy, but he could only hold back, because his family had already given them fifty acres of land, and the Ming people also sent people to teach them to cultivate crops.

And here are those who dare to resist, unlike me, he keeps whispering in his heart to quiet himself.

The village was mainly fishing, with few large livestock, only six horses and three oxen, which were confiscated, and then the sprawlers set fire to all the houses in the village and left the village, leaving only helpless Anui fishermen and a burning village.

For the next few days, things like this continued to play out before Yanayahi's eyes, he was numb, he was just a guide who had been drawn in, and that's it, he was not a savior, he told himself so.

"My lord, can you not execute them?" Kaveh stepped forward and said.

"You are asking for help for a bandit with the blood of the Ming people on his hands." Wang Haizhou's cold eyes looked at Kaveh.

In a nomadic village in the north, after gathering the people in the village, three Anui who had attacked the Ming people were discovered, and the deputy commander Wang Haizhou ordered them to be hanged as an example.

Guide Kaveh tries to stop it.

"My lord, they are only following the orders of the patriarch, and their sins are not unto death." Kaveh said stiffly.

"All I know is that they have the blood of the Ming people on their hands." Wang Haizhou waved his hand, and the three of them were hanged from a big tree in the village.

Kavi rode on his horse and looked at the village behind him that was engulfed in fire and smoke, feeling both angry and helpless, his entire tribe had accepted the conditions of the Ming people, and the Ming people were also trustworthy, and they allocated acres of land, taught the people to farm, and sold them iron, needlework, cloth, salt and sugar, etc., which were much cheaper than those of the people, which was very fair.

It's just that Kaveh feels like he has lost something, especially the suffering of people from other tribes of the same root and species is even more painful, but he understands that the people who have lived a better life will not resist, no, they have lost the heart to fight.

The northern plains are in a frenzied panic, with more than a dozen tribes and dozens of villages burned in half a month, thousands of Anui empty-handed, and winter in just over a month, many of whom will not survive to spring.

Many tribes are mired in frenzied civil strife, looting supplies and fighting over houses on a daily basis, with nearly half of the tribes of Kutu Naban and Degasia looted.

The two tribes each gathered more than a thousand blood-infused people to search for the Ming cavalry, hoping to destroy the demons of these activities, but the Ming people did not fight against the Anui brigade at all. Take advantage of the speed and endurance of Mongolian horses to swim in action battles. One man and two horses are fast. So that the cavalry riding the short Ezo horses were helpless, and they couldn't catch up with the Ming people at all, how to intercept the enemy and fight to the death.

At this time, the Anui people no longer took the initiative to harass the Akito, they were too busy to take care of themselves, and most of the Anui people didn't even know how to spend this winter, where could they take care of the Akito. After all, the Akito was still in the southwest, and the extreme cold was just a month away.

The fragile alliance between the Kutu Naban tribe and the Degas tribe broke down, and many in the Degas tribe believed that it was Varanasi who had provoked the Ming people and brought disaster, and Cassiti refused his request to continue sending troops.

Even within the Kutu Naban tribe, there are many people who think that the patriarch's wrong decision has ruined the tribe and caused Varanasi's prestige to be greatly reduced and his status shaken, and Varanasi did not expect that the Ming people's revenge would be so fierce and swift.

He just knew that there was no hope for Hokuriku about the time, and next year would be the time for them to fall, either surrender to the Ming people or die in battle. Then we headed to the Tokachi Plain to the southeast.

But there is also a struggle with other tribes for survival territory, and people have infiltrated there. For the first time, Varanasi, a self-proclaimed wise man, felt at a loss for what to do, and that the vast Ezo had no place for them to stand.

Wan Ji and others took advantage of this period of peace to reclaim more than 200,000 mu of land from the 60,000 Liao people who had already arrived in Beihua, and by mid-October, they had expanded the area of Beihua to 430,000 mu. Nearly 40,000 new Liao people were allocated acres of land, and the rest of the refugees had to wait until next year.

Zhao Lie didn't continue to wait, after all, the sea was closed in winter, he didn't want to sit on a lonely island, far away from Daming, Jeju, Shidao and Jeju needed him to deal with it, so he and Alexandra returned to Jeju with the fleet, taking the opportunity to let Alexandra, who was always helping to help the refugee camp, rest and relax.

"Dad, it's no good, I really can't walk, rest." Fang Gaoshan shouted, Fang Shun didn't say much, stopped to rest, Fang Gaoshan's heels were blistered by the string of cloth socks, and it was very difficult to carry a big bag of sweet potatoes.

Fang Shun sat on the ground, wiped his sweat, and looked at the pile of sweet potatoes in the distance.

Today is the day of harvesting sweet potatoes, the father and son of the Fang family went into battle together, and the white sweet potatoes that raised a seedling saw the six or seven in a series on it, Fang Shun felt good and made a good start, I hope it is all such a harvest.

So the father and son were happily busy, and they picked up two acres of sweet potatoes one after another, most of which looked like this, and when they got nearly ten acres, the piles of sweet potatoes piled up everywhere made them dumbfounded.

No, it can't be started again, it's a problem everywhere these sweet potatoes pile up. You can dig more cellars to store, but it's just a few more months, and it's a worry when you have a good harvest.

Thinking of this, Fang Shun completely lost the momentum to work.

"Village chief, village chief," shouted someone below the gentle slope.

"Well, here, something's wrong." Fang Shun listened to the voice, it was Tian Mu who was close to the old Hu on the side of the road.

"Village chief, there's someone from above." The old shouted.

"Well, I don't know what's going on." Fang Shun hurriedly walked downhill and walked towards the side of the road.

"Old Fang, hurry up." A middle-aged man on horseback shouted on the side of the road.

Fang Shun heard that it was the old king who was in charge of this communication, and now the notification of the affairs of each tun relied on a horse team of more than 100 people, the notification of major and minor affairs, and the transmission of letters, all of which were responsible for this horse team.

"Lao Wang, what's the matter, I'm busy with the autumn harvest." Fang Shun hurriedly ran over.

"Just look at you." Lao Wang said with a smile, "However, you have to treat you this time." ”

"Tell me why." Fang Shun said with a smile, he has laughed like this many times, he really doesn't care, Lao Wang is busy every day, and he can't find anyone else for a treat.

"Fangmao Port has arrived at the last batch of Liao people this year, and your family has arrived. You said you shouldn't have a treat. Lao Wang said with a laugh.

"Really," Fang Shun was overjoyed when he heard this, he finally came, he was very worried about his old wife and daughter.

"Of course, this batch has arrived at many people's families, and I don't have to be busy for days. These are your tun's. Lao Wang handed more than a dozen strips to Fang Shun, and the first one on them was Fang Shun's name.

Fang Shun's hands trembled with excitement, and the family was finally about to be reunited.

"Lao Wang, when your sister-in-law arrives home in a few days, I will definitely invite you to eat venison." Fang Shun said excitedly.

"Old Fang, let's be busy first, I'm just happy and happy, laughing." As soon as Lao Wang urged the Jeju horse under his crotch, the horse trotted forward, and the smaller body of the horse and the stout Lao Wang were extremely funny.

Fang Shun turned around and walked over, intending to tell his son the good news.

Unexpectedly, the sound of horses' hooves sounded, and Lao Wang returned.

"Old Fang, seeing that I'm busy, Lord Zhao of Fangmao Port informed that the white sweet potatoes and grain of each tun were purchased by the administrative secretary of Fangmao Port in a unified manner, so that all the tuns were placed. If the loss is large, it will not be collected. ”

Fang Shun felt that today was really blessed by the Buddha, and he wanted to come to whatever he wanted. (To be continued.) )
