Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

Everything is ready, just wait for the wind to rise.

On Lao Yao Mountain, Zhai Zhe and Zuo Ruo discussed the situation, and the thin man was on duty.

With the help of training the army for a long time, Zuo Ruo can also correct his position, and the relationship between the two is getting closer and closer.

Zuo Ruo was actually the second commander of the cavalry of the Han Army, and Zhai Zhe gave him a lot of authority. In addition to Qiu Bin's department, Lei Yanqian's department, and Xiao Zhiyan's department, most of the cavalry orders of the Han army came from Zuo Ruo's hand.

A person's thinking will inevitably leave flaws, and Zuo Ruo's careful thinking can often point out the loopholes in Zhai Zhe's plan.

"The Ming border army is unreliable." Zuo Ruo drew a circle with his finger on the map, "No one knows them better than me, if you want them to go out to fight, unless it is the will of the imperial court." ”

Zhai Zhe smiled bitterly and said, "If my hands can reach the sky, why should I go to the grassland." ”

"If you want to reach the sky with one hand, the most convenient way is to deal with eunuchs." Zuo Ruo understands the way of Ming officialdom, "The reputation of eunuchs is very bad, but as long as people like you and me are willing to spend money, they still have the opportunity to become their guests, but civil officials are not good at all. ”

"In your eyes, eunuchs are more lovely than civil officials?" Zhai Zhe joked casually.

"These are two different things, most eunuchs are poor, timid and greedy for money, and it is easier to make friends." Seeing that Zhai Zhe didn't care, Zuo Ruozheng said: "If the Han Department has spare money in hand, you might as well go to Beijing City to get acquainted with one or two eunuchs with real power, and you can also leave a way back for yourself at a critical time." ”

"Aren't you optimistic about this plan either?" Zhai Zhe's brows furrowed.

Zuo Ruo said frankly, "Yes, Dolgon and Yue Tuo are extraordinary, it is difficult to fool, the Mongols are not even-minded, Lin Dan Khan is dead, there is no character who has a word, each has his own thoughts, and it is very easy to do bad things." Besides, there is a saying among soldiers: if you don't win, you must lose first, and you must be prepared for everything. ”

Zhai Zhe's eyes flickered, and he said, "If you lose, the Han Department will not be able to accommodate you in the grassland." ”

Zuo Ruo chuckled noncommittally, and asked after a while: "Are adults still willing to live like a rich man for the rest of their lives?" ”

After experiencing the turmoil, how could he be willing to give up a qiē and return to the dull. In the past few years, the long-sleeved dance has strengthened the strength of the Han Department, and now Zhai Zhe has thousands of male soldiers, and the taste of commanding thousands of troops and horses makes him know the taste of the marrow, and how can he give up the foundation he founded until he has no choice.

"Don't be half-hearted before the big war!" Zhai Zhe categorically vetoed Zuo Ruo's suggestion, even if he wanted to lay out again, he would wait for this big battle, and the current situation was mixed, and he had to concentrate on breaking the boat.

Every day that passes, there will be one less day left for Zhai Zhe, and no one knows how long Moxi's Ezhe will last.

On the road leading from the Jurchen Grain and Grass Camp to the Junzijin Ferry, there were several herdsmen who were nomadic along the way, carefully counting the number and frequency of vehicles coming out of the Jurchen camp, and there were people in Liangcheng who were doing the same thing. The Han Department is carefully searching for the law of the Jurchens transporting supplies, and if they don't move, they will kill the Jurchens, and if they accidentally startle the snake, let Yue Tuo and Dolgon wake up, I am afraid that there will be no chance.

If you want to plot against the Jurchen army in the west, you must first cut off the ears and eyes of the naturalized city Yuetuo, and the horse thief with Ruzhuo has become a big trouble for Zhai Zhe. These people are familiar with the Monan grassland, and they are the network that connects naturalization, Zhangjiakou and Liaodong, and they are hidden in the shadows.

After breaking with Yue Tuo, Zhai Zhe ordered the closure of the trade route that killed Hukou and the outgoing fortress, and only allowed the merchant alliance caravan to enter and exit, but the eight families had no intention of exiting the Naturalization City at all.

In the Monan grassland, a caravan staggered out of Zhangjiakou and walked in the empty and uninhabited grassland.

Dude whispers \u6

2b1 complained: "The one who killed Hukou has already passed, why do you still want to naturalize from Zhangjiakou." ”

Someone replied: "Youyu County is not peaceful either, and several caravans have been folded this year." ”

"After all, it is the territory of Daming, and there are still many caravans that can reach naturalization."

"Shut up, Hugh is going to chew and rap behind your back." The accompanying shopkeeper heard a small muttering behind him and reprimanded loudly.

The unhurried journey, the orderly camping, and the silence of the wilderness make people palpitate, but the shopkeeper knows that someone is secretly protecting them.

In another day, we will arrive in Liangcheng, and the guys unload their goods and carefully arrange the campsite.

When the first white appeared in the eastern sky, Ji Hong urged his horses, and more than a hundred cavalry rushed to the caravan on the soft grass. The men were tying up their cargo on the back of pack horses, and the guards didn't seem to have fully woken up from their sleep.

I don't know who burst out with a panicked shout: "Horse thief! ”

The caravan was in disarray, and the guards hurriedly placed the caravan on the outside to block the onslaught of the horse thieves, who were very experienced.

The horse thieves were not in a hurry to rush into the caravan, but just circled around, killing and wounding the people in the caravan with bows and arrows, and the bows and arrows and long knives were merciless, and the men and guards did not let go.

The panicked man ducked under the horse's belly, and the arrowman fell to the grass. The caravan of the Eight Great Families had not encountered a horse thief for a long time, and it was still such a ferocious horse thief. The experienced guards hid under the belly of the pack horses, clutching their waist knives in their hands, not moving at all, waiting for the final fight.

Half an hour later, there were no moving targets in the caravan, and many men lay in pools of blood and groaned. Not far away, the scout, who was lying on the ground listening for the movement, jumped up and shouted, "Here we are, at least three hundred people!" ”

Ji Hong clamped the horse with his legs, raised the blood-red long knife, and ordered: "Withdraw!" ”

More than 100 people fled eastward to the mountains on the border of the Ming Dynasty.

When Ruzhuo arrived, the sun had already sprinkled on the grassland, and the tragic situation after the slaughter was fully revealed, the pack horse goods were not touched at all, and the horse thieves who attacked were here to kill.

There were also some survivors hiding in the pool of blood, and a guard got up from the ground, pointing \

dnetbsp; U5411 shouted loudly to the southeast: "There are more than a hundred horse thieves, go over there." ”

Eruzhuo nodded to him, but in fact, he didn't need to shout, and the scout had already seen traces of the ground.

The Hanbe horse thief finally showed up, and the visible enemy reassured him.

"Chase!"

Three hundred cavalry followed the traces left by Ji Hong's cavalry to the east, and the horse thieves in the Monan grassland continued to gather in the Zhangba grassland, which is the world of Eruzhuo.

The traces left by the horse thief's escape have been in the direction of Zhangjiakou in the southeast, which surprised Eruzhuo. There was no doubt that these people were from the Tumuthan tribe, and if he escaped back to the old camp in Horingle, he really couldn't help it.

The chase is the hardest war on the steppe, especially when it is still inaccessible along the way.

Escapees should carefully arrange the location and time of camping to avoid being raided by tired opponents, and pursuers should carefully check the trails along the way to prevent the opponent from escaping in the wrong direction. Only an old horse thief can even eat and sleep right away like the Mongols, without affecting the hurry.

Unfortunately, both sides are old horse thieves.

In seven days, the cavalry under Ji Hong's command was chased from the Zhangba grassland to the Duoyan grassland, and then returned to Monan.

How could Eruzhuo let these people escape back to Helinger, the front line of Liangcheng had already sent someone to intercept him.

There is a blockade in front and a chasing soldier in the back, and the opponent has nowhere to escape. For a group of 100 horse thieves to fight so much, Yue Tuo knew that he wanted to give Hanbu a warning.

Ji Hong seemed to know that the return was not smooth, and rushed headlong into the border Huyukou of the Ming Dynasty.
