Ghost Country, Beishanwei.

Located in the far north, it is covered in snow and ice all year round, but there is a towering volcano with occasional fire, and the climate is sometimes cold and biting, sometimes warm like spring, like a world of ice and fire.

On the vast ice field, a cavalry roared past.

Commanding Tongzhi Li Shenghe to take the lead, returned to the walled city, and went straight to the Chinese army's tent.

"Commander of Qiyu, the soldiers are fortunate to not disgrace their lives, and they repelled the main force of the Yaksha Country, and this battle is a great victory!"

The Chinese tent was tightly wrapped in fur felt, but it was too far from the volcano, and although it was further south, the temperature was colder.

Song Gu Xi wore a mink fur, sat lazily on the chair, and said, "How is the battle going?" ”

"A total of 1,300 enemies were killed and more than 1,000 prisoners were captured, do you see if those prisoners are ......?"

Li Shenghe stretched out his hand and gestured at his neck, with a fierce look in his eyes.

It's not that he has a thirst for killing, but that after Song Guxi came to the Wandering Ghost Country, his methods were ruthless and decisive, and he gained a firm foothold in a short time.

Whether it is the local natives, or the Tatars and Jurchens who fled here, as long as they stand on the opposite side of the Ming Dynasty, there is only one way to die.

"Hmmm......"

Song Gu Xi hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Forget it, stay here, even if it is to accumulate some virtue for my unborn child." ”

As she spoke, she reached out and touched her bulging lower abdomen, a happy smile on her face.

"I understand that it takes labor to build a city, and it's a pity to kill it!"

Song Gu Xi nodded and said, "I've been getting more and more inconvenient recently, so you can just discuss and do something." ”

"Adults are resting, let's arrange it!"

Li Shenghe clasped his fists and saluted, turned around and walked out of the big tent.

A hundred households stepped forward and asked, "Lord Tongzhi, what's wrong?" ”

This person's name is Chen Tao, and he has been with Li Shenghe since he went to sea, so he is an old acquaintance.

Li Shenghe said: "The commander commands the envoy to send those captives to the north to repair the city wall!" ”

Chen Tao was dissatisfied: "Leave a living mouth? ”

Li Shenghe turned his head and asked, "What did you say?" ”

"I ...... Humble means that the recent commander has for some reason become so indecisive, which was not the case in the past! ”

Chen Tao deliberately lowered his voice, as if he was worried about being heard by someone in the big tent.

"Oh?"

Li Shenghe smiled and asked, "Could it be that you have any high opinions?" ”

"Talking and laughing with the adults, how dare the little ones be high-minded, that is, they are ......"

"How?"

Chen Tao smiled meaningfully and said, "My lord, do you know what the brothers below say? ”

Seeing this person's concealed appearance, Li Shenghe said dissatisfiedly: "Don't sell the fuck, if you have something to say, let it go!" ”

Chen Tao smiled and said: "Our commander is from the White Lotus thief, and he is a woman, when he first landed on the island, he relied on that ruthlessness to suppress people, but now he has become so indecisive, where is his prestige?" ”

Li Shenghe frowned and asked, "What exactly do you want to say?" ”

Chen Tao then said: "My lord, you are the commander appointed by the imperial court, if you want to replace him, the brothers will definitely support you......"

Syllable!

Before the words fell, he was slapped in the face.

"I don't think you want to live anymore!"

Li Shenghe was furious, pointed at Chen Tao's nose and scolded: "You melon cowardly don't want to live, Lao Tzu hasn't lived enough mud!" ”

"I, lowly ......"

Chen Tao was slapped coldly, and he was a little at a loss.

Li Shenghe grabbed him by the collar and said angrily: "You are a thief, do you know that she is a woman in the four emperors!" ”

"Ah, this ......"

Chen Tao was even more at a loss, and his face turned green with fright.

Li Shenghe felt angry and kicked him out.

"The baby in her belly is a four-dragon species, if there are four male babies, there will be four Ming princes, don't pull your forehead if you want to die!"

After saying that, he turned on his horse and walked away.

Chen Tao stood up holding his stomach, glanced at the big tent, and couldn't help a cold sweat.

"Wait for me, sir!"

Li Shenghe took the lead and came to the northern camp, where a new city was rising from the ground.

At the beginning, there were more than 2,000 White Lotus Sects who came here from the Ming Dynasty, as well as more than 2,000 people from the imperial court, a total of 5,000 people.

These people say a lot less, and a lot is not too much.

It is enough to expand the territory in the country of wandering ghosts.

Because this area is vast and sparsely populated, there are only a few uncivilized barbarian tribes, and there are small groups of Mongols and Jurchens who have fled.

Five thousand well-equipped Ming troops could sweep almost everything.

However, it is far from enough to cultivate land to grow grain and develop infrastructure.

Because of this, after Song Gu Xi landed on the island, he was decisive at first, leaving no one alive, and then slowly became more restrained, captured the enemy army, and cultivated the land and repaired the city.

Today, in addition to the original 5,000 people, the Ming army has more than 5,000 prisoners in the position.

With sufficient labor, the project can be started.

At a suitable distance from the crater, an open land was selected and the first city of the Ming Dynasty in the country of Liugui was built.

Li Shenghe escorted more than 1,000 newly captured captives over, opened mountains to extract stones, burned lime, smelted steel, and built roads.

"My lord, something happened over there!"

Li Shenghe asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"Among the natives, there was a Mongol mixed with us, and we found out!"

"Mongols?"

Li Shenghe's eyes lit up, and he waved his big hand: "Go, take me to see!" ”

In a small tent in the middle of the camp, there was a man naked, tied to a pillar with five flowers, and his body had been beaten to a lake of flesh and blood.

"Your Excellency!"

The two pawns in the tent saw Li Shenghe and hurriedly saluted.

"Hmm!"

Li Shenghe nodded and asked, "What's the situation with this person?" ”

One of the pawns said: "Lord Hui, this guy is a Mongol, mixed with the natives, there must be a conspiracy!" ”

Li Shenghe came to the man and looked at it and asked, "How do you see it?" ”

"The little one stumbled upon that this guy could understand Chinese, so he became suspicious, grabbed him, stripped off his pants, and understood it when he looked at the root of his thighs!"

Speaking of which, there are no horses in the Wandering Ghost Country and the Yaksha Country, and you only need to look at the base of the thigh to see if there are traces of riding a horse, and it is easy to tell the difference.

Li Shenghe asked again: "Have you recruited it?" ”

"Back to my lord, this guy is still a hard bone, and he won't say a word after being caught."

Li Shenghe said expressionlessly: "Cut off his fingers one by one." ”

"Yes!"

Faced with the cold dagger, the man finally couldn't help but shout: "If you dare to cut my finger, I will bite my tongue and kill myself!" ”

Li Shenghe smiled, seemed to hear something very funny, and said, "Do you dare?" ”

"I, I ......"

This man's Chinese is a little stiff, and with timidity, he is even more overwhelmed.

"If you don't dare, I can help you!"

Li Shenghe beckoned, and the pawn behind him stepped forward.

"Cut out his tongue!"

"Don't, don't ......"

The man finally got frightened and cried out, "If I cut my tongue, I will not be able to speak even more." ”

"Is it important that you can speak?"

"I ...... I know something, don't cut my tongue......"

"Say!"

"I have the ......"

Li Shenghe said angrily: "You are numb, what qualifications do you have to negotiate terms with Lao Tzu?" ”

"I have ...... Intelligence ......"

"If you have anything to say, hurry up, you won't have a chance when it's late, Lao Tzu has a lot of things, and I don't have time to play with you!"

"Okay, I say!"

The man seemed to understand his situation, and he no longer hesitated.

"I'm under the tent of Takeoff and Sweat, Zuo Prime Minister Ajitai ......"

"Prime Minister Zuo?"

Li Shenghe pursed his lips, revealing a suspicious look.

"I'm really Prime Minister Zuo, don't believe it, you can ask me, I know a lot of ......"

"Fuck your mother's Prime Minister Zuo, Lao Tzu only cares about intelligence."

Li Shenghe waved his hand impatiently, and then said: "If the information you provide is valuable, maybe it can save your life, if it's just delaying time, it's all fucking nonsense, Lao Tzu will chop you up one by one and throw you to the back mountain to feed the wolves!" ”

"I am Ajitai, the prime minister of the Great Yuanzuo, and I am sent to the Yaksha country on the order of the Great Khan of Tokhtar!"

The Yaksha country is located in the north of the Yaksha country, and the two countries are bounded by a giant volcano in the center of the peninsula, although there are some battles on weekdays, but this place is vast and sparsely populated, and it is difficult to have a fierce conflict, so the two countries have been at peace for hundreds of years.

Since the Ming army landed in the country of Liugui, it quickly changed the pattern of the Kamchatka Peninsula.

Many scattered tribes, obedient to the Ming Dynasty, are regarded as allies, hello to me, everyone is good.

If you don't obey, kill it directly.

Since you don't want to be good, let's die!

When the Ming army occupied the country of Liugui, the country of Yaksha in the north began to move.

At the beginning, everyone didn't take it seriously, they just thought that the Yaksha Kingdom saw the turmoil in the Wandering Ghost Country and wanted to take advantage of the fire to rob and get a piece of the pie.

However, things are slowly getting a little strange.

These barbarian tribes are actually gathering a large army, and it seems that they are not satisfied with the simple of occupying a piece of land.

Song Guxi immediately decided to take the initiative to attack, so he sent Li Shenghe to lead the main force north and fight head-on with the Yaksha Kingdom.

Where are these barbarian tribes the opponents of the Ming army, as soon as the two sides come into contact, they have already collapsed.

I thought it was just a simple turf battle, but I didn't expect that there was another hidden story behind this war.

Ajitai knew that he couldn't hide today, so he said: "The Great Khan sent me as an envoy to the Yaksha Kingdom because your Ming army has threatened the safety of the Yaksha Kingdom, and if they don't send troops, they will be swallowed by you sooner or later!" ”

Li Shenghe immediately scolded: "You numbness, there is no grudge between Lao Tzu and the Yaksha Kingdom, besides, even if there is, what does it have to do with your group of lost dogs?" ”

"We ...... We just can't stand it......"

"Fuck your shit!"

Li Shenghe said angrily: "If you don't want to say it, don't say it, come on, cut off his tongue!" ”

Ajitai was shocked and hurriedly said, "Don't, don't...... I say! ”

Li Shenghe forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart and said, "Lao Tzu is not so patient, the last chance, say it quickly!" ”

"I ...... We are sweating in ...... In the ......"

"Where?"

"Just north of the Yaksha......"

Li Shenghe suddenly understood, it turned out that Tokhtar Buhua was hiding in the north of the Yaksha country!

Now, the Ming Dynasty has occupied the Wandering Ghost Country, and if he occupies the Yaksha Country again, then his hiding place will be dangerous.

Mengdi, his expression was shocked.

This is a big fish!

Now the supreme commander Song Gu regrets that his body is inconvenient, and all actions are commanded by himself, if he can catch the detachment, it is not too much to be crowned, right?

Which of those people who followed the emperor's personal expedition was not famous?

This kind of good thing, how can you miss it!

Thinking of this, Li Shenghe had a smile on his face and asked, "You just said that you are Prime Minister Zuo?" ”

Ajitai was at a loss, so he just nodded and said, "Yes, if it's fake......

"Do you know where Totok is hiding?"

"Know ......"

"Good!"

Li Shenghe suddenly slapped Ajitai on the shoulder, which scared him a lot.

"How many centaurs?"

"This, this ......"

"Huh?"

Li Shenghe's face changed as soon as he said it, and he immediately became murderous.

"About 300,000 ......"

"How much?"

"Two hundred thousand...... No, it seems to be 100,000 ......"

"How many are you numb?"

Ajitai cried and said, "Ten thousand ......"

Li Shenghe said with a smile: "There are so many people following the lost dog, you all have problems with your brains, right?" ”

At this time, Ajitai's expression was extremely depressed, and it seemed that he was not fragrant as the left prime minister.

"Tell me more, how many of these 10,000 people can fight?"

"You can go to war!"

"Fart, be honest!"

Ajitai's lips twitched, and he said aggrievedly, "About five thousand." ”

Li Shenghe secretly thought in his heart, the land in the extreme north is cold, the materials are extremely expensive, and tens of thousands of people are already the limit of what they can bear, and it is impossible to have more.

If this number is true, even if adult men can go to war, excluding the old and weak, women and children, at most two to three percent, that is, no more than two to three thousand people can fight.

It can be seen that the five thousand in Ajitai's mouth is still blown out.

Now the main force of the Ming army has 5,000 people, well-equipped, and tens of thousands of prisoners can be used as civilian men to transport supplies, which is advantageous in any case.

The only problem is that I am not familiar with the terrain of the Yaksha Country, and the place where the Yaksha Country is located is still further north of the Yaksha Country.

It is covered with snow and ice all year round, and it is freezing cold, and if you attack rashly, it is difficult to say the consequences.

Thinking of this, Li Shenghe gave an order, kept this person under strict supervision, and then rode back to the city again.

After listening to his report, Song Guxi finally had a playful smile in his eyes.

"Whether it's the Wandering Ghost Country or the Yaksha Country, it's nothing more than some uncivilized barbarians, and it's boring to win them, so it doesn't take ...... to get rid of them."

A thought rose in her heart, since she landed in the Wandering Ghost Country, she went to the imperial court to show the results of the battle.

Zhu Qizhen naturally did not hesitate to reward him, ordered the formation of Beishanwei, and ordered Song Gu Xi to be the first commander.

But, in the end, they are guilty of sin.

If you can catch it and don't spend it, then you will completely turn over!
