Chapter 148: War doesn't need to be reasonable

In the afternoon of the same day, the Ming army sent more than a dozen spies to quietly go to the Helan Mountains to inquire about the situation of the Tatar tribes. **UC e-book provides free txt e-book download**

Ao Bai returned to Qingwang's mansion, and in the evening there was a big feast. During the banquet, King Zhu Zhuohong asked, "Lord Huang, I heard that I am going to personally lead troops to fight against the Tatar tribe in Helan Mountain, why should I risk my life?" ”

Ao Bai smiled: "As long as the arrangements are made, I will try to win this battle without casualties in our army." The emperor ordered me to appease the border soldiers, but I think they are so poor that it is almost impossible to live, and they will not be able to do so without some extraordinary means. Taking this risk is nothing, and I can't live up to the emperor's expectations of me. ”

When he said this kind of expression, many people immediately praised him as a true loyal minister and wished him success. In fact, all I thought in my heart was that this person was hopelessly stupid, and he would do things that were not beneficial to him.

Indeed, this has no practical benefit for Aobai, at most it will add some prestige to him. But he decided to do it, helping Ningxia Town train soldiers and train himself at the same time. If you want to win the world, sooner or later you have to wield the butcher knife, and it is not okay to be a good man forever, he wants to see how ruthless his heart can be

The next day, Ao Bai arrived at the barracks, and this time, the flag commanders of each fort, the hundred households, the thousand households and other military attaches were present. The chief military officers had already said yes, and they also agreed with Aobai's proposal, and it was difficult to make a living by hunting alone.

Qianhu Han Wenhai said: "My lord, in the area of Helan Mountain, there are indeed many rock sheep, and the Tatars are stationed in the mountains to graze, which is a tribe that harassed us before. What should we do? ”

Ao Bai smiled: "Is there a map, I'll study it first?" ”

There are also good spies in the army. A spy named Chen Guangsheng gave the finished picture to Aobai, who felt that he was very talented and talented in painting, and showed the distribution of Tartar yurts very clearly.

Ao Bai said: "This seems to be painted condescendingly, you went up the mountain, and they didn't show you?" ”

Chen Guangsheng arched his hand and said: "My lord, I got a set of foreign costumes in advance, and after dressing up, I pretended to be a person who went up the mountain to chop wood, and escaped the attention of the Tartars, and drew this picture on the mountain. I waited at the bottom of the mountain until it got dark, then went back to where I had put my horse and rode back. ”

"Well done." Ao Bai praised. None of the others have such results.

Pointing to the picture he had drawn, Ao Bai asked, "Judging from the picture you made, they camped near the root of the mountain, how close is it to the mountain?" ”

Chen Guangsheng said: "My lord, there is a cliff behind them. == First. Hair =="

It's so creative, why camp like this? Is it to prevent the abdomen and back from being attacked? If the other party has more people than them, won't it directly form an encirclement? Ao Bai thought for a moment and asked, "Is there any fire medicine here?" The kind that can open mountains and blow up stones. ”

Zheng Lijun asked, "Do you want to blow up the mountain?" There were not only soldiers in the Tartar camp, but also old people, women, and children, and ...... do that."

Ao Bai sighed and said, "If you do this, they will die too." Do you want to protect these people? In order to protect these people, we will definitely pay the price and fill it with our own lives. ”

Zheng Lijun stopped talking.

A flag commander also raised his hand and said, "My lord, it is indeed a bit hurtful for the lower officials to do this." ”

Ao Bai sighed: "In this place, you must not have fought against the Jurchens in Liaodong. In the war, as long as the Khan gave an order, they could kill all the women and children of the Han people without hesitation, leaving no one behind. And these Tartars who often come to harass us, they don't want to kill us, they just don't have the strength. If there are many of them and they can attack the city, the entire town of Ningxia may suffer a slaughter, and none of them will be defeated. Dedication. It's good that the battle hasn't been fought yet, so you can think about how to be kind and sympathetic to the enemy's women and children. Your thoughts are great, but to show mercy to the enemy's men is to endure your own cruelty. The surviving children will not thank you when they grow up, but want your lives! ”

He felt that his mentality was changing, and after getting to know the Portuguese, he felt that he was too kind of a woman. Now the European countries are spreading their colonies everywhere, and there are constant wars for turf. This is inhumane, naked aggression, but looking at these things after a few hundred years, it is the most primitive capital accumulation. The European powers all relied on grabbing wealth everywhere to have the capital to make a home, and then gradually grew stronger. From this point of view, there are similarities in what the Jurchens did.

What about Da Ming? They never thought of relying on their military strength to directly fight out and invade others and plunder wealth, because the Holy Monkeys said that was not right. Daming is known as the state of etiquette, and he wants to talk to people about everything. At the end of the ceremony, the country is dead.

Now Ao Bai wants to take the soldiers to grab something, and in the face of the Tatars who have been provoking him, these people actually think about whether they should kill innocents indiscriminately. Ming Jun is like a kitten being teased by mice. You can eat a mouse, but you don't do it because the cat doesn't want to kill, and mice are life.

The dominant idea of the Ming Dynasty is, in a way, to confront people against their own nature. If Ao Bai wants to change all this, he must first change himself, born in an era of the jungle, don't think about being a good person for the rest of his life.

The generals of Ningxia Town couldn't say anything about him, so they had to express their obedience to orders. Ao Bai said: "Come out after dark, now start preparing explosives, and the lead must be long." Bring a bow and arrows, and rockets. First they lit explosives, then they set off rockets, burning their yurts so that they had nowhere to hide. You've never taken the initiative, and I guess they're pretty loose-guarded. The battle was fought to a decisive one, and all the cattle they kept in captivity were taken away. After finishing the matter, they were divided into two teams, one team searched for anything valuable in the yurt, and the other team drove the livestock to withdraw first, and then distributed them after returning. ”

One of them asked, "My lord, where is the explosives?" How to load? It's too difficult to put it halfway up the mountain when it's dark. ”

"Prepare a large basket or bucket, the bigger the better, pull it with a rope and tie it up, sit on it alone, put it down, and pull him up after putting the fire powder, this soldier is not difficult. The lead should be long, and we will strive to eradicate this tribe with zero casualties. ”

"Yes, sir!" The crowd finally made up their minds.

Robbery and robbery are such things, and worship is the level of the industry. If you don't do it ruthlessly, the Tatars will come to harass the Ming Dynasty. Only by subduing them, beating them if they are afraid, and giving them some benefits, can they be honest. The marriage between the Jin State and the Mongols also began after fighting countless battles and gaining the upper hand.

When the things are finished, the few Shaolin Temple monks brought can also come in handy, and talk to the soldiers about the Buddha for a few days, dispel their doubts, and have the opportunity to do this again in the future.

In the evening, Ao Bai led this group of unfamiliar subordinates out. It was not far from the Helan Mountains, and it could be reached after four hours of marching, and it was exactly the middle of the night, perhaps when the other side was most relaxed.

Ao Bai and the others walked very hard, because in this era, there was not even a flashlight, so they could only rely on torches to move forward in the dark.

He only brought 5,000 people, because there were not many opponents, and in the middle of the night, he successfully arrived at the place where Chen Guang was elected. Ao Bai slowed down the formation of the team, and then ordered a group of people to go around and quietly go up the hill to set up explosives.

If it weren't for the side of Aobai, it would be very difficult to put explosives on the cliff, and it would be an impossible task at night. During the day, the soldiers made a large basket that came in handy. It's easier to make longer leads, and you're all set. They were not in a hurry to light the fire potion, because Ao Bai said that they would wait.

Wait until the light of day to strike at the best effect, and when the time comes, their bows and arrows will know where to shoot. This simple fight, of course, has been unanimously approved.

Around 5 a.m., I was able to see things around me. Ao Bai said to one of the people beside him: "Quick, send someone to inform the mountain and prepare to start, and the others prepare bows and arrows." Fence them off. A little brighter, they might notice. As soon as it exploded, we started to put the rockets first, and those yurts were not hiding, and if we didn't want to burn to death, we could only come out and be shot to death. ”

Maybe it has never been attacked by the night, there are only a few sentry officers in this tribe, and the sky is getting brighter and brighter, and the troops of the Ming army finally appeared in the sight of the other party. The sentries hurried to call out loudly.

At this time, only a loud bang was heard, and the explosion began. The power of the Ming Dynasty was limited, but it was still possible to blow down a few big stones and scare people.

Then the Ming army's arrow team also began to set rockets to burn the yurts, and under the double blow, the Tatars were in chaos.

Su Meng'er was by Aobai's side, there was no task, Aobai didn't go out, and the coach didn't have to appear in person.

Su Meng'er asked softly, "It's not the first time you've fought a war, right?" It's not like a novice on the battlefield at all, and you have come up with such a bad thing, you are much more ruthless than I thought. Huang Peng, what kind of person are you? ”

Ao Bai said lightly: "When I meet a useful person, when I should be merciful, I will be merciful." But those who can't be used by me, and who want to affect the economic exhibition, I can only drive them out and exterminate them. Only when they are finished, some of my ideas can be implemented. ”

Many of the Tatars, who had no clothes on, came out with swords and were greeted by a rain of arrows. Originally, the line of sight was not very clear, and as soon as the yurt burned, the Ming army knew that it was shooting towards the fire. Under such a dense round of shots, there is no need for an accurate head. This is not a battle, but a one-sided slaughter.

Ao Bai divided the team into two groups, and the people who went to the ranch also took action. There are few Tatars there, an average of five people fight one, and the outcome can be imagined. In just a moment of incense, the Ming army won a complete victory.

The last time the soldiers of Ningxia Town won a great victory over the Tatar army was quite a long time ago. The rise of this group of people to kill has long forgotten who should be killed and who should not be killed, and only thinks about dividing things. Deep in the human heart, there is a violent side and a desire for something for nothing.
