Chapter Fifty-Nine: Lin Dan Khan's Thoughts

"Lead the way!"

After listening to Zhu Youzhen's words, everyone put down the muskets in their hands.

Seeing that the muzzle of the gun was no longer aimed at him, Fan Donglai and the others slightly loosened the tight chrysanthemum, turned around and ran.

Damn, it's scary.

Zhu Youzhen and his entourage followed behind them. After a while, I saw a large army beside the road.

Standing in the middle is a big red official, an immortal crane complement, not Wang Xiangqian. Without waiting for Zhu Youzhen to approach on horseback, Wang Xiangqian led the crowd to kneel down to greet him.

"Wang Qing get up quickly, don't be polite."

Zhu Youzhen turned over and dismounted and helped Wang Xiangqian, who was kneeling on the ground. took his thin hand and said affectionately: "Wang Qing, hard work!" ”

"It is a blessing for a minister to be able to share his majesty's worries."

Wang Xiangqian's eyes were moved, and tears were about to fall out.

The two were performing again, and Zhu Youzhen looked at Sun Chuanting, who was looking at him burningly. It was another fierce boast, and Sun Chuanting, who praised him, was a little embarrassed.

In the end, Zhu Youzhen stopped his gaze on the military generals on the side.

I saw that this military general had a slightly red face, a wide forehead, a high nose bridge, a pair of thick and long eyebrows, and a pair of big eyes underneath. Seeing the emperor's opinion, he hurriedly lowered his head.

"Presumably, this is Chief Cao, right?"

"The last general, Cao Wenzhao, meet Your Majesty!"

Cao Wenzhao's voice is extremely magnetic, like carrying two subwoofers on his back.

It's a good material for broadcasting.

"Not bad!"

Zhu Youzhen nodded at Cao Wenzhao and said with satisfaction.

The first feeling that this Dacao gives people is that it is not easy to mess with.

He greeted a large group of officials at all levels who he did not know, then got into the carriage prepared by Wang Xiangqian, and walked to Datong City.

After Sun Chuanting received the news that Zhu Youzhen was going to recruit in person, he led the soldiers of the Yongwei Battalion to Datong.

The Brave Guard Battalion is once again united.

As soon as Zhu Youzhen entered the city, he inspected them.

"The soldiers have worked hard!"

"At the service of His Majesty!"

The loyalty of the Yongwei battalion not only comes from the glory of the troops directly under the emperor, but also from the super high welfare benefits such as double salary in wartime and three salaries on holidays.

Zhou Yuji, Sun Yingyuan, and Huang Degong were also very excited. It has been more than three months since His Majesty sent them to Datong last time, but I didn't expect His Majesty to come in person more than three months later.

Zhu Youzhen chatted with them, and after some encouragement, he returned to the residence that Wang Xiangqian had prepared for him.

This is a seven-entry courtyard, the original owner was a Jin merchant, who was killed by Sun Chuanting some time ago, and the courtyard was confiscated.

A few days ago, Wang Xiangqian learned that Zhu Youzhen was coming, and sent someone to urgently renovate the inside as Zhu Youzhen's temporary residence.

All the furniture inside was made overnight, and the room smelled of logs.

Zhu Youzhen sat on the top and quietly listened to Wang Xiangqian's report.

"According to the envoy of Huduntu, Huang Taiji ordered Korqin, Karaqin, Ao Han, Naiman, Khalkha and other tribes attached to them to make peace with them and attack the Han together. At present, Hudun Rabbit is in a panic, threatening to continue to move west without sending troops. ”

Damn, if you move west, you know that you will move west.

Who to scare?

I'll kill you sooner or later!

"Where is Tiger Rabbit now?"

Zhu Youzhen asked with a frown.

"Last year, the Han sent troops to defeat Tumut and Yongshaobu, and Ombu Chuhuer led his troops to join Dongnu. Now it is in the area outside Xuanda Pass. ”

"How many soldiers do I have available at the moment?"

"There are more than 43,000 officers and soldiers in Datong Mabu, and more than 112,000 people in Xuanfu."

So much?

Zhu Youzhen was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and immediately came to his senses. Does what is on the books count? What about fools?

"I'm talking about usable soldiers!"

After listening to Zhu Youzhen's questioning, Wang Xiangqian's face was embarrassed.

"This..."

"Tell me the truth."

"There are more than 23,000 veterans of Datong. Xuanfu and Xuanfu are more than 51,000. ”

it.

Do you want to exaggerate that?

The head of the nine sides, Datong is just this person?

It is no wonder that it was invaded by Lin Dan Khan in history and killed tens of thousands of people.

It's a problem to defend at this point, and you still support Chahar?

The army here is estimated to be unreliable.

At a critical time, it is estimated that you still have to rely on the Yongwei battalion.

Two days later, Sun Yingyuan and his entourage and the grain transport team arrived.

This time, he brought a total of 23 Hongyi cannons and 60 Italian cannons.

Not only that, but there were also more than 200 gunners and technicians led by Gonza Sho de Sierra.

The Hongyi cannon is inconvenient to move and can be placed on the city wall for defense.

As for the Italian gun, with a weight of more than 400 catties, with the solid wheel of the connecting shaft purchased by Zhu Youzhen, the horse pulled up and flew up, and there is nothing to say about the mobility.

Now that everything is ready, just wait for Huang Taiji to come.

Lin Dan Khan has been a little panicked recently, because the Jurchen wants to beat him. He was a little scared because he knew he couldn't beat it. He has never been able to understand why there are more and more people betraying around him. Needless to say, Horqin had a bad relationship with his own department.

But even Naiman and Ao Han of his Chahar Department betrayed him, which is a bit too much to say.

I am the Great Khan, and instead of listening to my commands, you have betrayed me. Now he obeys the Jurchen's orders to beat me!

If it weren't for the greed for Daming's money, Lao Tzu would have run away.

But what now?

At this time, Gui Yingcha came in.

"Great Khan, Datong has sent a letter here."

Lin Danhan was overjoyed and stretched out his hand to take it.

As a result, after reading it, he tore the letter to shreds in a fit of rage.

Gui Yingcha looked at Lin Dan Khan, who had a gloomy face, and stood quietly to the side without daring to say anything.

His brother-in-law had always been moody, and he was afraid of being burned.

After a long time, Lin Dan Khan, who was a little calmer, spoke.

"Summoning all the ministers to come to the ceremony."

After a stick of incense, the leaders of the various tribes gathered together.

"Nanming sent someone to send a message for us to move south and defend the city. What do you guys think? ”

The leaders of the tribes looked at each other.

Opinion? When did you ever care about our opinions?

The crowd stood there silently, and no one spoke. Lin Dan Khan had also guessed their reaction, and he was not surprised to see this.

He has always been engaged in a lecture hall, saying that it is a matter of etiquette, and basically he has the final say.

Who made him a khan?

"I feel that according to Nanming's request, move south!"

Still no one spoke. What do you say? You've made up your mind, so why are you going to let us do it?

"Go back, inform me, and leave early tomorrow morning!"

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

The people in the tent responded one after another, and then turned and left the sweat tent. Lin Dan Khan was left alone to think about something.

When he first saw the news of the Ming Dynasty, he was extremely angry.

But after thinking about it, he calmed down again.

It's okay to move south.

However, if the Ming army sends troops to support and can fight the Jurchens, naturally there is nothing to say.

But if he couldn't beat it, he simply took the opportunity to bite Nanming, went to the pass to loot, and then led his troops to move west.

Thinking about all this, Lin Dan Khan's face had a smile again.
