The 446th Mongolian envoy

"Although the leader of my family is a vassal to Dajin, he did not lead the army to participate in the plunder."

In Mongolian, the Mongolian man earnestly told the translator: "Because of this, I have been ostracized and looked down upon by other tribes in Karaqin.

Hearing that Yang Shuai was besieging Guangning City, he specially sent him as an envoy to contact the marshal. ”

After listening to the translator, he translated the Mongolian man's words word by word to Yang Chengying.

"Since the leader of your side doesn't want to be an enemy of the Ming Dynasty, he doesn't dare to offend Jianyu."

Yang Chengying listened to it and said to the Mongolian man: "It's okay to come to our army in person in private, and everyone can sit down and talk, how about it?" ”

After listening to the translation, the Mongolian man was very hesitant.

It is natural to hesitate, after all, the Later Jin is raiding the border of the Ming Dynasty through Mongolia.

Moreover, the Ming Dynasty has always had the bad habit of tricking Mongolian leaders into besieging and killing in border forts and reporting merit to the imperial court.

A long time ago, when Li Chengliang was still the chief soldier, he used this strategy to trap and kill his brother who fried flowers, Su Bahai.

Yang Chengying naturally knew about it, so he said: "Don't worry, I am a general under the command of Inspector Yuan, and I can't do the dirty thing of 'booby-trapping' the leader." ”

Only then did the Mongolian man say: "I'm just a little Nuoyan under the leader's command, and I can't be the master." I ask the general to allow me to go back and report to the chief of Subudi, and then make a decision. ”

"Yes."

Yang Chengying agreed without thinking about it, "You go back and tell Subudi that you can come with your own soldiers in four days, and I will set up a banquet in the big tent to entertain him." ”

"Understood."

The Mongolian man agreed, and then left with Zheng Zhilong.

Before leaving, he saw one earthen platform after another, showing a puzzled expression.

"You've seen it all."

Yang Chengying turned his head to look at Huang Long, "You just said that the fort will be built within three days, you can't delay the date." ”

"Don't worry, I promise to complete the task."

Huang Long understood the coach's mind in seconds, patted his chest and said.

The Mongolian steppes have always worshipped the strong, and they used to use bows and arrows and ride horses, but now it's time for a change of taste.

So, Huang Long and his subordinates organized soldiers and people to work overtime to build forts.

After this scene was seen by the Houjin army in the city, it was reported to the main general defending the city, Babutai.

Babutai hurriedly led a few cattle to Lu Ezhen and went to the city to look.

I saw a number of brick and stone earth platforms rising from the ground.

"This Yang Manzi really doesn't look like a famous general, just this trick back and forth."

Babuthai patted the head of the city hatefully.

But with this trick, they have no power to parry at all.

"Boss, let me go out of the city at night and attack them! If you're lucky, you can kill them. ”

A cow with a scar on his face said unwillingly.

"You don't have to think about it."

Babutai shook his head and said, "Yang Manzi himself is a master of defending the city, and he must be on guard against us. In case of an ambush by the Ming army, it will be even more difficult to defend the city. ”

"Then why don't we wait?" Another chubby cow really shouted.

"What are you waiting for, organize the people to prepare more stones, and as soon as the artillery fire stops, force them to repair the wall."

Babutai said gloomily: "I don't believe that Yang Manzi has the ability, and he has been firing non-stop. ”

The lessons of war are constantly being learned.

Since the time of Nurhachi, Yang Chengying's laws in the use of artillery have been summarized. And thought of some ways to avoid artillery fire, as well as repair the city after the shelling.

With these lessons learned, Babutai is convinced that they can be used against Yang Chengying.

He had his men swing blades and force the people to tear down their houses and carry stones and timber to the city.

However, it did not go well.

This has a lot to do with the fact that there are too few people in the vicinity.

The area around Quang Ninh, which has experienced many wars, is already in a depression at this time.

Everywhere you can see the ruins of the walls, and the fertile land is overgrown with grass.

Yang Chengying felt a little uncomfortable when he saw these places like this.

"The vast region has a long way to go if it wants to restore the appearance of the Wanli period."

He said to Liu Tianlu: "There are Mongols outside, and Jianyu may also come to stir up, for you, the difficulties are even more than before." ”

Liu Tianlu said with a smile: "The marshal thinks it is difficult to govern, but his subordinates think that this is a good land." ”

"Oh?" Yang Chengying became interested, "Tell me about it." ”

"Dashuai, there is no landlord here, and there is no land with a lord, which is equivalent to a blank piece of paper, allowing your subordinates to write things on it."

Liu Tianlu said brightly.

"General Liu really deserves to be a talent with both military and political skills."

Yang Chengying gave him a thumbs up.

The situation encountered by Liu Tianlu is almost the same as the situation encountered by Lu Xiangsheng in history.

The Yunyang area governed by Lu Xiangsheng has always been a "big problem". For those corrupt officials, that hellish place is only for fools.

But for Lu Xiangsheng, there is no better place than Yunyang Mansion. There is no big landlord with hands and eyes, and there is no land with an owner, so he can rest assured that he can boldly pioneer and support the military households.

Therefore, Yang Cheng should be very confident in Liu Tianlu.

The only thing that is not at ease is that the Mongolian cavalry has come and gone without a trace, which is a big hidden danger.

When he was wondering whether to let Kong Youde leave some of the cavalry behind to assist Liu Tianlu, Zu Zerun hurried over:

"Great marshal, the Mongolian envoy from the day before yesterday came."

"Very good, you brought him here."

Yang Chengying commanded, and then put on a look of enjoying the scenery with Liu Tianlu.

A moment later, the Mongolian man, led by Zu Zerun, walked quickly to them.

"Yang Shuai!"

The Mongolian man placed his right hand in front of him and bowed.

Yang Chengying clasped his fists, and then asked, "How is your leader thinking about it?" ”

"The great leader of Subudi agreed to meet with Yang Shuai, but he had a request, and he couldn't come in vain."

The Mongolian man was very upright: "Yang Shuai wants to prepare three thousand stone of grain, and the others will be discussed further after meeting." ”

"Three thousand stone of grain can be given to you, but you can't be insatiable."

Yang Chengying smiled: "If you think I'm the kind of general who calms things down, then you've miscalculated." ”

"Don't dare, we will never dare to do such a big rebellious thing."

The Mongolian man is humble on the surface, but in fact, he does not let go of his interests at all.

"Okay, I can directly allocate 1,500 stone of grain to you now."

Yang Chengying raised his hand to stop Liu Tianlu who was trying to speak, and continued: "Please also go back and tell your leader that not everything can be eaten." ”

"Okay, I'll relay that." The Mongol man was not afraid of threats at all.

The current situation is that the old battalion of Karaqin is stationed with 300 Houjin soldiers all year round. It is impossible to win over Subudi with food.

But it is very necessary to take the opportunity to meet and let them know the strength of the Golden State Army.

So, Yang Chengying arranged the siege on the one hand, and arranged a banquet in the big tent on the other, waiting for Subudi to come and give him a little shock from Jinzhou Town!
