Zhangjiakou.
The shops are open for business, and the market is much less crowded than usual.
The man's face hid panic, and after taking care of the shop, there were no customers, and they secretly glanced at each other, not daring to chat casually. The proprietors of the eight families are all in Xuanzhen, and the Jurchens will not inform them that the army is coming, but they have their own channels to get the news.
The Jurchen army was divided into two teams, totaling more than 30,000 people, and passed through the Zhangba grassland in the shade of the sky.
After the eastward migration of the Tumuts was forbidden, there were no herders here, only scattered horse thieves.
Dolgon commanded the two white flags in front, and Yuetuo commanded the two red flag elites behind.
These two people are very young, they are in charge of the military department and the official department of Houjin respectively, they are powerful, shrewd and capable, and they show the battle between Yuliang in Houjin. Huang Taiji has skills under his control, Dolgon Kong is powerful, brave in battle but in charge of the officials, Yue Tuo is weak in physique, not able to ride and shoot, but in charge of the army.
Under the scorching sun, the Jurchen army marched slowly, and the soldiers were drenched in sweat.
On horseback, Dolgon raised his right hand to block the dazzling sunlight and looked south, the Great Wall of the Ming Dynasty winding like a long snake in the mountains, and remembered last year's court dispute.
After driving the Chahar people out of the Monan grassland last year, Huang Taiji returned to Liaodong to convene Taiji and Baylor to discuss the battle plan of the army for the coming year, and asked: "Which of the three comes first to conquer the Ming Kingdom, Korea, and Chahar?" ”
Tiancong Khan personally presided over the court meeting, and the courtiers argued enthusiastically, and Huang Taiji's move was also elegant.
The generals of the Later Jin Dynasty were eager to subdue the Mongol tribes, and the weakness of the Chahar people was already exposed like a girl of ** in the hideous \u5

In front of the 973 true warriors, all the generals thought that they would go to Moxi to attack Chahar first. Only Yueto and Dorgon disagreed.
With the help of the merchants of Zhangjiakou, Liaodong knew the situation of the Ming thieves well.
For Dakin, the Chahar people are now like dogs waiting to be slaughtered, and they can be relieved for the time being.
The territory of the Ming Dynasty is vast, and the people are tens of millions, as long as the Han people are not chaotic, no matter how hard the Jurchens forge ahead, they will not be able to go further. The Jurchens can enter the pass and plunder, but as long as the city of Beijing is there, the great tomorrow will be at the border, and the city of Beijing cannot be captured, no matter how far the Jurchen army goes, it will eventually retreat to Liaodong.
There was a drought in the north of the Ming Dynasty, and the thieves in the mountains and Shaanxi had intensified in the past few years, so that Yue Tuo and Dolgon both saw an opportunity.
If you want to conquer the Ming Dynasty, you must first make the Han people chaotic. If the Jurchen army invaded Shanxi from Datong, the Ming Dynasty would no longer be able to go all out to eliminate the thieves in Shanxi.
Those who advocate the conquest of Chahar are preparing to reap the fruits, and those who advocate the conquest of Ming are planning for the future.
The fat hand gently stroked the handle of the dragon chair, and Huang Taiji's mood was complicated, with both resonance and joy, and secretly alertness.
All the generals of the court and the central government thought about plunder and money, and only he, Huang Taiji, dared to annex the Ming Dynasty with 100,000 people, and that kind of ambition seemed as ridiculous to others as if a snake swallowed an elephant. But if you don't even dare to think about things in this world, how can you do it?
"Luckily, it's two people!" Huang Taiji muttered in his mouth.
"Thirty miles ahead to Liangcheng!" The herald flew in to make an announcement, disrupting Dorgon's thoughts.
"Stay put!" Dorgon rolled over and dismounted, removing his armor from his armour, and the gentle steppe breeze brought a coolness.
The two banners were stationed on the side of the sea in the east of Liangcheng.
Half an hour later, Yueto arrived at Dolgon's camp, he was a little older but younger, and he was very respectful of Dolgon.
There was a map on the desk, on which the location of the camps and forts of Datong and the garrison were clearly marked.
Dolgon beckoned Yue Tuo to come closer, and pointed out: "Datong Town is very empty, you see where to enter the customs!" ”
This map was obtained by Yue Tuo from the Jin merchants, and the contents of it were already clear to him, and he said, "Fort Guard!" Only need to break this fort, and there is no precipitous place in the Ming Dynasty, which is convenient for cavalry. Defending this fort can also ensure that there is no need to retreat from the fortress. ”
Dorgon looked at it and agreed, "Exactly! The army rests here for a day, and the day after tomorrow you enter the customs, and tomorrow you go to the Tumut Department to collect military rations and livestock. ”
Naturalization City.
Omubu Khan was uneasy, and continuously sent scouts to the east of Liangcheng to patrol the shuttle, but he did not dare to go too deep.
The Jurchen army was stationed, and the scouts found out the news, and judging from the banner, the leaders were Dolgon and Yuetuo.
Omubu was even more uneasy in his heart, both of them had a rift with Tumut, Dol had burned down the city of Naturalization, and Yueto had also been denied marriage.
The Khan Tent cavalry requisitioned the livestock for several days, prepared grain, grass and wine, and prepared to wait for the Jurchen army in the city of Guihua the next day. Both the Han and Mongolian people in Tumochuan tried to stay at home as much as possible, and did not dare to move around at will.
The next day, as soon as the sun showed its face, two thousand elite horsemen traveled from the Jurchen camp to naturalization.
Entering the Tumo River, the scene in front of him surprised Yue Tuo. Last year was still barren, and at this time it is comparable to the south of the Yangtze River. Along the way, there are 10,000 acres of fertile fields along the Heishui River, and patches of corn are slightly yellow, and it seems that the harvest season is coming.
The scattered Bansheng houses, which smoke from the stoves, look ethereal in the mist of a summer morning, where the Han people live on the grasslands.
Yue Tuo knew that a large number of Han people had left the fortress last year, but he did not expect the scene in front of him.
Iron hooves hurry.
Fifty miles outside the naturalized city, Ombu, who got the news, led Gu Luge, Hang Gao and Zhai Zhe to greet him.
Zhai Zheci, who was hiding in the corner, observed the Jurchen cavalry at such a close distance.
Silent, rude, and well-equipped.
Silence shows discipline, rudeness is a reflection of bravery, and as for armor, Shang Meng will not be able to equip Han cavalry with such fine armor for another ten years.
Yue Tuo dismounted and met with Ombu Khan, he had no female \

u771f people are common in arrogance, and the tone of speech is also very gentle and kind.
Gurug squeezed forward and bowed.
Yue Tuo stretched out his hand to help him up, and said with a smile: "I remember you, we are relatives, right!" ”
Gulug smiled and nodded.
Ombu Khan was a little unhappy and interjected: "The Tumut tribe is all relatives of Beyler. ”
Yue Tuo smiled, his eyes scanned, and he paused slightly when he passed Zhai Zhe, this is a Han man!
Zhai Zhe lowered his head to avoid Yue Tuo's eyes, deep down in his heart, this person gave him a good impression, and his behavior was polite, not like the barbarism of the Jurchens he imagined.
Omubu Khan led the way, and two thousand Jurchen cavalry marched to the city of Guihua.
The city of Guihua is a little more deserted than usual, but there are still some scattered Mongols scattered around. As Omub Khan said, Mongols come here every day, and many are on the road, so how can the shops be closed.
Yue Tuo walked through the street step by step, casually checking the shops on both sides, which was not far more prosperous than the Zhangjiakou Bazaar, but it was burned to ruins only a year ago.
In one year, in just one year, the Tumut Ministry has undergone such a change!
Yue Tuo tried his best to hide his surprise, how many Han people came out of the fortress last year?
From the fertile fields seen along the way, there were 20,000 or 30,000 Han people out of the fortress.
