Mo Nan Grassland Tumo River.

The Han people were buried in the ridges of the fields, sweating like rain. The abundant animal power of the grasslands allowed them to reorganize the abandoned land before the Qingming Dynasty, and the caravan brought them seeds and equipment. Bansheng, which had been burned or destroyed by the Chahars, was also repaired and improved.

The green corn has been pulled out of the ears, and the harvest will be visible in more than a month, although it is hard, but it is much better than the Han land across the block.

In the sixth year of Chongzhen's reign, the drought in Shanxi eased slightly, but the situation had deteriorated, and the land in the mountains and wilderness was barren and barren for countless people, and the imperial court was unable to provide disaster relief, and the peasants who had lost their support had to join the footsteps of the displaced people.

The court wants to kill them, God wants to starve them, and they want to pull a cushion before they die.

In May, Gao Yingxiang, who had been recuperating for a long time in Taihang Mountain, was a blockbuster, and the surprise troops arrived in Wu'an, Hebei Province along the west of Motianling, defeated the official army Zuo Liangyu, and took advantage of the situation to take Huaiqing and Zhangde two mansions, and Hebei was shaken. The formation is pressing, the people's mutiny army is moving in all directions, and one government and one town cannot form an effective encirclement and suppression at all. Chongzhen had no choice but to delegate power to supervise and appoint Cao Wenzhao, who was effective in suppressing thieves in Shaanxi, as the chief military officer of the bandits.

Yang Jinchao, the eunuch of the supervising army, accompanied by the army, has learned the lessons of previous dynasties, and the emperor in the deep palace is most worried about the loss of military power.

At this time, Gao Yingxiang's department has become a climate, and tens of thousands of cavalry have been dispatched, and the officers and soldiers are still seven and three, chasing and blocking.

Cao Wenzhao's various departments, Ai Wannian and Zuo Liangyu were all his subordinates in Liaodong Town, and He Renlong Zeng \u

5728 Shanxi fought side by side with him, cooperated effectively, with the Guanning Iron Cavalry as the main force, and even broke the people's army. Although there were many cavalry in Gao Yingxiang's department, they could not resist the impact of the heavily armored Guanning cavalry, and were surrounded in the mountains and forests at the junction of Henan and Hebei, separated by the Yellow River to the south, and heavily guarded by the strong city to the north, like a dragon trapped in a shoal.

In this world, where there is money to be made, there are business travelers, although he lives in the mountains and forests, Gao Yingxiang can still exchange the captured money for weapons and armor. After suffering the loss of Guanning's iron cavalry, he made up his mind to draw a scoop according to the gourd and match his cavalry with armor.

Business travel and the government's Tang newspaper is the most convenient way to spread the situation in the Ming Dynasty. Chongzhen in Beijing may not have imagined that in remote Liaodong and desolate Saiwai, there are also people who are concerned about the current situation of this group of chaotic people. Born in the large and small battles in the territory of the Ming Dynasty, the Tang newspaper he saw may not be as accurate as the information that those people got through the guò business travel.

The east and west, the undercurrent surged, and Geng Guang quietly sent the news obtained by the Shang Alliance to the outside of the Saiwai in Datong Mansion.

Every few days, someone from Da Sheng Kui would come to pick up some secret letters.

Geng Guang's letters would first be delivered to Mangniu Mountain, and then Zong Mao would arrange a special messenger to deliver them to Zhai Zhe in Hetao. After Zhai Zhe finished reading it, he would occasionally find Xiao Zhiyan and Zuo Ruo to discuss the situation, and the shape of the Ming Dynasty was directly related to the rise and fall of the horse market.

Hetao grassland.

The next day, Ombu Khan's order was delivered, Hanggao led his troops to leave, and the Ulan tribe entered the Tuoketuo steppe across the river.

Princess Ulan was not in a hurry to enter the Hetao, but summoned Zhai Zhe and Geriletu in the Tuoketo grassland to discuss the military situation.

I haven't seen the princess for many days, and Zhai Zhe can't even remember the last time we met.

Being busy can make people forget a lot. In Zhai Zhe's mind, Ulan was still stuck in that predicament, and when she took on the life and death of tens of thousands of people with her weak shoulders, she could still smile at the image of a girl.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, Zhai Zhe bowed down to meet him.

"Meet the princess!"

When he looked up, Zhai Zhexian Wulan was a little fatter than before, and the form of the little daughter between his eyebrows had quietly faded, leaving behind maturity and stability. He still likes the way Ulan used to be, but now he looks too strict.

Geriletu, who was standing on the sidelines, recounted the night battle the day before.

Zhai Zhe said bluntly: "With the carelessness and cunning of the Chahar people, it is difficult to expel them from the Hetao grassland with the strength of the three forces. Forced to helpless, they can temporarily retreat to the Tengger Desert to temporarily avoid the edge and then wait for the opportunity to return. He didn't want the Han cavalry to go deep into the dangerous situation to pursue, and now the Han cavalry was the most immature, and the Chahar people already understood it under a blow.

Wu Lan Jing listened to the two of them, her expression was stern, her form was solemn, and her eyes avoided intersecting with Zhai Zhe.

"We just need to keep the loop out of the hands of the Chahars, and it will serve as a buffer zone between Chahar and Tumut. Every half a month, we can regularly search and expel the Chahars, but we can't drive them out, and we can also ensure that the Chahar people don't dare to move in. ”

When the Chahars were unable to threaten the Han people, Zhai Zhe no longer wanted to be their enemies, and the general trend of the world was divided and merged, and he and the Chahars had a common enemy in the grassland.

"That's fine!" Ulan forehead slightly. Zhai Zhe's meaning was clear, and without the support of the Han Ministry, she and Geriletu were powerless to clear the Hetao.

Since being told by the Great Khan that he was going to move his family to Mobei, Ulan came to his senses from his illusions. The marriage of the princess of the Tumut Khan family could not be decided by her own love, and if she married the Han Chinese, the Tumut would inevitably be ridiculed by the Mongol tribes on the steppe.

Never before did he need the support of other Mongol tribes as he did today, and marriage was inevitable. The elder brother refused the Jurchen marriage only because he did not want the Tumuts to become vassals of the Jurchens, but Mobei Mongolia did not pose such a threat. Born in the emperor's family, luck and misfortune, like people drinking water, know their own warmth and coldness.

After a short meeting, Zhai Zhe returned to the loop with a heavy heart.

In the past few days, he has been unsettled, and the reaction of Omubu Khan and Hang Gao has made him reconsider the future of Hanbu, and there is always a shadow of a person hovering in front of him - Zhao Quan.

Zhao Quan's defection to Altan Khan was not incomplete, helping the Mongolian people to build equipment and using the White Lotus Sect's internal line to invade the Ming Dynasty. But when Altan Khan gave up on him, Zhao Quan was dragged like a dead dog

3o Daming Slash. Zhao Quan's abandonment was a condition of the Ming Dynasty's peace negotiations, and the deeper reason was that as a Han Chinese, the wealth and status he had acquired in the grassland were deeply hated by the other Tumut nobles. When the crisis came, the wall fell down and everyone pushed it, and when Altan Khan had no time to protect him, the one he had disappeared overnight.

In the past year, Zhai Zhe did not hesitate to borrow money to strengthen his armaments, and made every effort to cultivate the strength that completely obeyed his orders, and with the help of Liu Quan's power to operate in Daming, and he was good at dancing and opening up various relationships, all of which were lessons left by that person. The Han Department must not be able to Kou Bian Daming, that is to completely cut off their own retreat.

Since May, the Loop has not rested for a moment.

After sending the wounded soldiers back to Hanzhai, Zhai Zhe transferred men and horses from the prefect's office to supplement the Chinese army, and the seven thousand generals led five 500 troops. Meng Kang and Zuo Ruo were each in charge of 1,000 people, and he was directly under 1,500 people.

The watchman saw the figure of the Chahar scout on the horizon, and the Chahar people were no longer as timid as they had been.

The Amur did not for a moment abandon the harassment of the Tumut cavalry stationed in the steppe of the Hetao. They were in a difficult situation, and across the Tengger Desert they could hardly obtain supplies from their tribe, so they had to hunt for supplies. Fortunately, the Hetao grassland is now inhabited, and the fertile aquatic plants support many animals.

The Han cavalry, with the cooperation of Geriletu, fought small battles with the Chahars, and both sides were looking for opportunities to avoid a head-on decisive battle, and the losses were not large.

Actual combat is the best way to mature a soldier.

More than two months later, when the cries of the enemy attack were heard at night, the most immature soldiers were no longer alarmed. The spears were mounted with shields to prevent the Chahars from storming the camp, and the archers hid in the rear to shoot. Zhai Zhexian's gunpowder bag wrapped in cowhide has a good effect on the frightening effect of war horses, and a group of cavalry who throw gunpowder bags are specially trained, called throwing artillery.

During the march, the silent Chahar cavalry appeared on the horizon, and the Han cavalry was no longer nervous, the lancers obeyed the rhythm of the horn to control the horses to turn, and Xiao Zhiyan and the light cavalry of Ge Ryletu protected on both flanks.

Seeing that the cavalry on the opposite side was becoming more and more skillful, Amur knew that this war was already difficult to win. The Tumuts used the Han people as the main force to deal with him, which did not affect the livelihood of the herders, and those Han people were much more patient than he thought.

In July, Zhai Zhe had already dared to lead the Han cavalry to go deep into the grassland to provoke the Chahars under the cover and protection of the light cavalry on both wings. With the sparring of the Mongolian cavalry, the Han cavalry made amazing progress.

On July 23rd, it was a hot day with no rain.

Killing Hukou, four fast horses rushed out of the fortress like a whirlwind, and the knight on the horse did not have the slightest idea of saving horsepower, and frantically waved his horsewhip and ran on the road leading to Old Crow Mountain.
