Looking at this scene and listening to the speeches of these tens of thousands of young men and women, Li Guo knew in his heart that they chose to join the Li family army, and they did not have the idea of repaying their gratitude. However, the root cause is that they want revenge, they want to avenge their loved ones, and they want to kill more Tartars to sue their loved ones in the sky.

At the same time, Li Guo also knew that these people would become the most loyal to the Li family's army, because they were completely disappointed in the imperial court, and where was the imperial court when they were invaded by foreign humiliation? Where was the court when the Tartars were mutilating their families, friends, and fellow villagers? When natural disasters occur frequently and the family can't open the pot, what is the court doing?

What's more, the grace of saving lives is equivalent to the grace of rebuilding!

Gradually, those young men and women returned to calm and their emotions returned to a stable state, but Li Guo said: "Fellow villagers, this operation of our Li Jiajun needs to be very secretive. Therefore, among you, except for the injured and weak, after resting, you must complete a task with Li Jiajun to clean up the corpse of the Tartar and remove all traces that can be removed here. ”

"This leader, these Tartars are ferocious and have killed countless ordinary people, so they should be allowed to be in the wilderness, so why bother with him?"

Looking at the anger on the face of the person who asked him, Li Guo knew that the other party was not one of himself, but his hatred for Tartar had reached the extreme.

"The reason why this villager disposed of the corpses of these beasts is not only to destroy the corpses and prevent the officials and soldiers from discovering that the Tartars died here, but also for the people from all over Shanxi."

Hearing Li Guo say this, those young men and women were stunned, showing puzzlement, and the man just now even muttered: "For the people from all over Shanxi? ”

"Yes, it's for the people of Shanxi." Li Guo blurted out, responded, and then said: "Have you ever thought that so many dead bodies exposed to the wilderness, in such a hot summer, will soon rot and stink, and it is easy to cause a large-scale plague, and in the end, it is not the common people who suffer, we Han people ourselves." ”

Before such an explanation, everyone must have obeyed Li Guo's order to bury or burn and dispose of the corpses of those Tartars, but there would be some knots in their hearts. But, at this moment, they are carrying out orders from the heart!

After all, although their relatives are no longer there, Shanxi is still their birthplace, how can they watch their hometown become a place where the plague is rampant?

"Go, get the cattle and sheep that the Tartars have robbed, and the cattle will be left behind for the cultivation of the base area, slaughter some sheep, and then go and get some grain, and immediately bury the pot to make food, and get some food for everyone." Li Guo turned to look at the soldier beside him and ordered.

Hearing that Li Guo arranged it like this, there would be rice and meat to eat, and everyone below swallowed their saliva when they heard it, they were already anxious about when it was the last time they ate meat.

Soon, the 4,000 Li family soldiers were busy, slaughtering sheep, burying pots and cooking, and more young men and women joined in, helping neatly.

After all, most of them are children of peasant families, accustomed to rough work, and more sensible, and sitting there waiting for food will only make them feel uncomfortable in their hearts.

The smoke of the cooking, the smell of rice overflowing, the battle in the canyon has ended, the smoke and white fog mixed with the smell of chili peppers have also dissipated, Li Jiajun and some people are cleaning up the battlefield, or removing the blood stains from the stalls, or burying the corpses of the Tartars in the ravine, only the corpses of the soldiers of the Li Jiajun are parked aside, sorted out, and ready to be taken back to the base area.

Li Guo sat in an open space, quietly watching the scene, and a squad leader was reporting on the results of the operation and all the seizures.

"Captain, we killed nearly 20,000 Tartars this time, including thousands of Mongolian soldiers, hundreds of captured carriages, countless gold and silver property, and it is impossible to count at present, excluding the slaughtered sheep, the cattle and sheep obtained were 500 and 300 respectively, and 5,000 war horses."

"Well, got it, and then arrange to get these things back." Li Guo responded lightly, as if he had thought of something, and suddenly turned to ask, "How is the surrounding situation?" Is there any movement? Let's make such a big move here, the cannon is rumbling, are there any spies from the officers and military officers sneaking in? ”

"Hey, hey... Captain, you can rest assured that no one is close to this area, even those monks on the mountain are honestly hiding in the temple, the gate is closed, and they dare not come out. ”

"The Tartars are really self-inflicted, almost the scourge of Daizhou and Xinzhou is deserted, the ambush point we chose is just in between, even if something big happens here, except for those monks on the mountain, no one can find out."

"Well, that's good, hurry up and clean up the blood stains in the valley and on the official road, and get out of here as soon as possible."

"Yes, Captain, I'm going to urge them to speed up."

The team leader agreed, turned around and was about to leave, when he was suddenly stopped by Li Guo again.

"By the way, wait a minute, for the sake of Yice's safety, let's send more spies out to ensure that no suspicious people will approach within a radius of ten miles."

......

After arranging all the matters, Li Guo couldn't help but look at the tens of thousands of young men and women again, the corners of his mouth unconsciously curled slightly, and he secretly said in his heart: "It's really an unexpected joy, a great gift, with the addition of these people, and so many materials, we can officially open up a new basis in Lanshan and Guanshuo Mountain." At that time, together with Taiyuan Mansion and its south, it will be the sphere of influence of the Li Jiajun, and the control of the whole of Shanxi will be just around the corner! ”

As soon as he thought of this, Li Guo couldn't help but think of the Shaanxi base area, as long as he was given another year, Shanxi would become the second Shaanxi, with many base areas, everywhere, almost all the mountains were controlled, and the officers and troops could hardly march and fight.

After all, controlling all the mountains is equivalent to cutting off all the grain and grass transportation and supply lines of the officers and troops.

A few days later, in the Hetao Naturalization City, in a luxurious mansion, there were bursts of angry shouting and constant coughing from the hall.

"Ahem... You dog minions, that's how you do things for your master? It's been six days, and there hasn't been a single message from Haoge, plus the young men of the Tumut Ministry, that's nearly 20,000 people, how can there be no trace at all? ”

At this moment, Yue Tuo sat on the couch angrily, scolding the kneeling person, with a sickly look on his face, but the kneeling man begged: "Master, don't be angry, your body is not good yet, so the slave will send more people to enter Shanxi to find news from Haoge and other Baylors." ”

"Master, don't worry, our Manchurian cavalry is invincible, and with the combat power of the Ming Court's army, it is simply wishful thinking to stop Hauge Baylor! Master, you should wait patiently for another two days, and perhaps in two more days, Haug, Dolgon, and Sakha will return with a full load. ”

However, hearing these reassuring words, Yue Tuo was still angry, but he did not continue to blame the kneeling man, and instead said: "You go to Chahar Lin Dan Khan's wife Nang Fu Jin, Su Tai Fu Jin, and Lin Dan Khan's son Ezhe, and ask them to assist you, recruit the cavalry of Chahar, enter Shanxi, and find Hao Ge and them. ”

"Yes, Lord Belle, the minion is going!"
