Chapter 623: Soldiers Coming to the City
Sure enough, it was as Kangxi and the generals had expected. A few rounds of probes came back to report. A vast grassland hinterland. But he never saw a single of Gurdan's men.
Such a situation. Even Gejitai had never encountered it. And Kangxi, who drove the first expedition. But he behaved exceptionally calmly and calmly.
The march lasted until the fifteenth. Tanma came back again. He said that he had arrived at the border checkpoint in Ulan Butong. The army has pressed to the border of Gerdan's lair.
Kangxi also listened to the advice of the crowd and stopped the march. Instead, he marched straight to Ulan Butong. It's less than five miles from the border post. And the blue sky and the white sun. The big thorn stabbed the ground, and the brigade was set down and set up camp.
"Your Majesty. Our troops are all exposed under Godan's nose. Does this make it easier for the other party to plot against the enemy? ”
In the military tent. Qi Buchen couldn't hold back for a while. I asked first. Asked. Turning his gaze to his own Ama Gejitai on the other side. But he saw that Ge Jitai's face was calm and calm. But there was no doubt.
Due to the proximity to Ulan Butong. Kangxi ordered that he should not leave his side at any time.
Huai Sleeve is very well-behaved and obedient at this time. At the moment, he is sitting on Kangxi's right side. Quietly guarding the small red clay tea stove all the time. Take good care of the dragon and phoenix tea boiling in the jug.
I heard my brother ask. Waited for a moment. Seeing that Kangxi never answered his words. Huai Sleeve couldn't help but look sideways. saw that Kangxi didn't know what he was concentrating on. It seems that he didn't hear Qi Buchen's question at all.
Kangxi did not answer. Naturally, the ministers did not dare to ask again and again. I had to quietly go my own way.
Wait for the ministers to disperse. When he walked to the front with hot tea in his arms. found that Kangxi was originally painting the outer Guo of a city. The painting is extremely detailed and vivid.
"What kind of place is this? A beautiful city. Huai Sleeve asked curiously.
"Ulan Butong." Kangxi lowered his eyes and looked serious. The pen in my hand did not stop. He only answered the question of the sleeve in passing.
"This is Ulan Butong. But a border town in the heart of the steppe. It's so beautiful. Huai Sleeve's eyes widened in surprise. I can't believe that I took a closer look at Kangxi's city.
"That's right. You remember a year ago. Will Rong Ruo return to Beijing? ”
Kangxi when he spoke. I made up a few more strokes on the painting. continued: "He had told me in detail about the appearance of Ulan Butong. I kept it in my heart at the time. this city. I don't know how many times I've described it in my heart. Now. Finally got what I wanted. Soldiers are coming to the city. ”
looked at Kangxi at this moment. I only felt that his spirit was shining. There is no anxiety about the imminent war. There was a twinkle in those dark eyes. But it's the excitement of a long-cherished taste.
Huai Sleeve suddenly felt the man in front of him. Not as she always thought. He is only accustomed to sitting on the golden dragon chair of the ornate high hall. Organize the current peaceful and prosperous times.
He stepped on his horse. When the horizontal knife immediately stood on the field. The warlike blood of the Manchu ancestors flowed through his body. It began to boil in the body. Licking the white blade's bloody edge. There's a bloodthirsty pleasure.
Huai Sleeve's eyelids twitched. The tip of the hand unconsciously poked into the sleeve of the shirt. It was stacked with what she had drawn last night. The portrait of Ling Yue dancing.
Compared to this fight. Ling Yue is simply like a weak bellflower. Just pinch with two fingers and pull gently. He was easily killed.
。。。。
It was getting dark. Kangxi, who was stuffy in the Chinese military tent for a day. Suddenly, he put on his cloak and walked out of the tent.
Gather a few neat pioneers. Start a global deployment.
Sleeves stood beside him, listening quietly. I probably heard that Kangxi divided the entire army into four parts.
The part commanded by Kangxi remained unchanged for the time being. The remaining three parts. Torches are not allowed for lighting. By night, they rushed to the east of Ulan Butong. West. Side doors on both sides. Deploy by dawn tomorrow. Hide in the mountains and forests and do not show your face. Do not use an open flame to start the stove.
Part IV. Twenty miles back from the spot. as a backup force. By the way, protect the safety of grain and grass.
Huai Sleeve never understood. Why didn't Kangxi deploy like this during the day. Instead, the entire army was clearly under the nose of Geldan.
At the time of dinner. Huai Sleeve overheard a soldier asking the same question as her. asked Ge Jitai quietly.
Ge Jitai smiled: "Long live the Lord just wants to give Geldan an illusion. It feels like he doesn't know how to fight at all. Bring all your troops together in one place. So that Gerdan could let his guard down.
And such a formation is easy for Geldan to concentrate his main combat power on the middle gate. The side doors on both sides became the weak link. In fact. Side doors on both sides. It is really an important breakthrough point in the city. ”
That joined the army and Huai sleeve at the same time. I can't help but sigh for Kangxi's strategy. Huai Sleeve couldn't help but be a little suspicious in his heart. Is Kangxi really the first time to lead the army to a big tent?
Return to the dormitory in the evening. Kangxi pondered the sand table seriously under the lamp. Huai Sleeve stood by the side and stared at him with a look of adoration.
"Look at it like this again. I can't hold it anymore. Kangxi didn't turn his head when he spoke. He sat on his lap.
"The concubine is thinking about a doubt that has just arisen today." His sleeves tilted his head. Big eyes blinked. Pose as unfathomable.
"What a doubt. Speak up, and I'll explain it to you. Kangxi asked with a smile.
He held his chin in his sleeve. frowned and looked at Kangxi and said, "It stands to reason." Long live this is the first time that the royal driver has personally conquered, right? ”
Kangxi didn't know what she was going to say. smiled and nodded: "That's right." ”
Huai Sleeve continued to frown and said, "Long live the first time Lord went on the expedition. The arrangement of troops has already shown such old spiciness. If it is like my Amam, who fights all year round. Wouldn't even the gods have to let you calculate? ”
Kangxi's smiling eyes were deep. Suddenly put his hand under the armpit of his sleeve and scratched: "Okay." I've spoiled you. He actually made fun of me. You mean that I am a treacherous and cunning. ”
Sleeves are the most itchy. Quickly twisted his body and rolled towards the snow-white felt bed. He begged for mercy in his mouth: "The concubine really doesn't mean this." The concubine is saying that Long Live Lord is smart and natural. Gifted and wise. The altar is transparent. Scheming...... Yes. ”
The last word of Huai Sleeve has just been finished. I only felt a chill in my chest. I don't know when the clothes have been stripped off by Kangxi. Half of the mountain peaks were kneaded hard.
After a while. Kangxi hugged his sleeve-topped body from behind. The two of them were wrapped in quilts. The bare back with sleeves was tightly pressed against Kangxi's broad chest. Rest with your eyes closed.
Kangxi's fingers caressed the skin that was still a little wet and sweaty in his sleeve. He whispered in her ear, "Now is the critical moment. Tomorrow, you will follow your second brother-in-law Malhan's four divisions to the rear to guard the town. ”
