Early in the morning of the first day of December in the tenth year of Chongzhen.

Except for the Eastern Khalkha Road, the rest of the Outer Khalkha Mongol Noyan, Jinong, Taiji and Zaisang gathered in Uriya Sutai.

As early as three days ago, the Liaodong Army, with the assistance of the local people, set up tents for the alliance.

The first is to rebuild the handsome tent outside the big tent, because the style of the handsome tent is Han style to reflect Yang Chengying's identity.

The big tent sits in the north and faces south, and a long tent is set up on the east and west sides, which is set up for the generals and Mongolian nobles who participated in the alliance.

A tent was set up opposite the throne, and the table was full of utensils.

On this day, the weather was also beautiful, with no wind or rain.

Yang Chengying appeared in front of the throne in court clothes, and the drums rang out.

All the Mongolian nobles and generals knelt down and bowed to him.

Yang Chengying originally wanted to change the etiquette, but everyone objected.

If the ceremony is not grand enough, it will not be able to deter the petty people.

Yang Chengying had no choice but to agree.

After the ceremony, Yang Chengying sat down, and everyone took their seats.

"With the order of the Emperor of the Celestial Empire, he guarded the northern frontier of the great country, and finally unified the Transkhalkha Mongols and the Oirat Mongols under his wings.

After Yang Chengying finished speaking, the Mongol leaders stood up again and responded in unison: "Obey!"

"Every tribe must obey the rules of the law, and must not transgress it. If there is a violation, the group will attack it. As for the nomadic land boundaries and the formation of households, it will start in January next year."

"Yes."

This was followed by wine as a sign of favor to them.

Bai Guangen poured wine, and Yang Chengying picked up the wine glass.

Gunbu, Subadi, Tenzin Lama, Gushi Khan, got up and stepped forward.

All four knelt to receive the wine, holding a cup in one hand and prostrating at the same time as a sign of gratitude for their special favor.

This was followed by the main Zasak – Sonomu, Rahuli, Batur Huntaiji, etc.

The other forces were not big or small, and they paid homage to Hada.

Yang Chengying hung Hada around their necks to indicate the relationship between the lord and the minister.

After the ceremony, singing and dancing were carried out in the open space.

The scene was very lively.

Yang Chengying picked up the wine glass and said, "I have always rewarded and punished clearly, and those who have meritorious service are rewarded, and Idamu is out of the ranks!"

In the eyes of everyone, Idamu walked in tremblingly.

He was born as a portal slave, and he was very scared in the face of so many aristocratic lords.

"Idamu, you've always thought of your wife and children."

Yang Chengying said, "I'll help you fulfill this wish now, Sonomu!"

"Your Highness." Sonomu out of the ranks.

"I'll leave it to you, and you will help Idamu find his wife and children before I return to Shenyang, and set up tents, cattle and sheep. And when it is done, I will give thee a thousand taels of silver and a thousand horses of brocade."

"Your Ministers obey!" Sonomu bowed down.

Idamu also hurriedly knelt down to thank him.

Yang Chengying said softly, "This is the reward you deserve. When you find a wife and children, you will go to the Imperial Court to receive an errand, and you will not be a portal slave in the future."

"Your Highness's kindness, the slave and his family will never forget it for the rest of his life."

Idamu pressed his face to the snow and bowed very respectfully.

Batur Huntaiji looked at it, and he already knew it in his heart.

No wonder Yang Chengying's army was so powerful, and the Mongolian guides were so hardworking.

On such an important occasion, he actually ordered a Zazak to find a wife and children for a slave.

What's Hami's secret? Batur Huntaiji began to look forward to it.

The alliance will be held on the first day of the new year, the military parade will be held on the second day of the new year, the banquet will be given on the third day of the new year, and the departure will be set off on the fourth day of the first month.

The next target point is Corondo.

Subadi returned to the old camp on the Khalkha West Road, and annexed the Mongols with the Tohuite Department.

Gonbu, Tenzin Lama, etc. also

Go back to your own territory.

Sonom helped Idamu find his wife and children, while Gunbu returned to assist the Central Army in attacking the tribes around Lake Baikal.

Yang Chengying continued westward under the guidance of Batur Huntaiji.

After reaching Kobdo, he planned to enter the Western Regions from the mountain pass, and then head south to Hami.

At the same time, the peasant army in Nanyang, after a short rest, conquered a large number of prefectures and counties around Kaifeng in December.

The peasant army attacked Kaifeng for the second time.

"Chen Yongfu is so ruthless!"

Li Zicheng looked at the skyrocketing fire in the urn city and couldn't help frowning.

In order to resist the attack of the peasant army, Chen Yongfu, the chief soldier of Kaifeng, set fire to the urn city, and burned the peasant army and the Ming army that were fighting in the urn city.

Looking at the sky-high fire, the painful wails of the people in the fire, many leaders of the peasant army were sad.

"Uncle, it's impossible to take advantage of the chaos to break the city."

Li Guo suggested loudly, "It's better to use the method of earth escape and dig a tunnel to enter Kaifeng."

"It's going to take a place where it works." Li Zicheng's brows furrowed, "You arrange for manpower, and then do it after you find it."

In fact, Li Guo's suggestion was agreed.

Li Guo hugged his fists and said yes, and went down with several leaders of the peasant army.

"I don't believe it, I can't take it off when I open it!"

Li Zicheng stood on the dirt mountain with a resolute expression.

Kaifeng is rich and the capital of Henan, so it must be taken.

As soon as Li Guo left on the front foot, a cavalry Pegasus arrived:

"King Chuang, Yuzhou urgently reported that You Shilu led an army to attack Yuzhou."

"He finally moved."

Li Zicheng's face changed slightly.

As a general of the Guanning Army, You Shilu has no problem with all aspects of ability. In addition, by plundering the people and recruiting the descendants, a huge army has been formed.

has been fighting with Zhang Xianzhong before, but Li Zicheng is worried about it.

Now that the army is dispatched, it seems that the Ming court is desperate.

"Someone, tell Li Guo and tell him to speed up the excavation."

Li Zicheng has already made a decision in his heart, "After our army quickly takes Kaifeng, we will lead the army south to rescue Yuzhou."

However, Li Zicheng was too worried.

He underestimated the combat effectiveness of the peasant army, and also overestimated the combat effectiveness of You Shilu.

In the face of You Shilu's soldiers, Yuzhou, which had few defenders, mobilized the people of the whole city and poured water on the city walls to form ice.

The soldiers stormed for three days, and there was no chance to break the city.

You Shilu received a strict order from Chongzhen, so he bypassed Yuzhou and rushed thousands of miles to Linying County.

There were not many defenders of the peasant army in Linying County, so they chose to defend to the death.

However, the fortification of the city in Linying County is far less than that of Yuzhou.

The Ming army attacked the city in one go.

Looking at the city, the peasant army desperately hugged the Ming army and rolled down and died together, You Shilu's hand holding the order flag trembled slightly.

He thought of the scene more than ten years ago, when he fought hard to kill the enemy under the command of Inspector Yuan.

"Inspector Yuan! Weekend...... There's no going back!"

You Shilu's lips trembled slightly.

Then, he issued an order: "After entering the city, arrest and kill all the thieves and their families." The people of Linying County dared to assist the thief army to defend the city, and all ...... Kill!"

The soldiers of the Ming army who heard the order cheered.

They worked harder to siege the city.

An hour later, the county seat of Linying was broken.

Soon, the cries in the city shook the sky!
