At the beginning of the 16th century, Dayan Khan unified Eastern Mongolia and built 60,000 households: Chahar, Khalkha, and Uliangha on the left, and Ordos, Tumut, and Yongshebu on the right.

The original grazing land of Khalkha Wanhu was in the Halaha River Basin, so the river was named after Wanhu.

It was led by the sons of Dayan Khan, Gelesan Tsantiji (G. Gresen Zataiji) and Nalibula Taiji (Alchuborot). Gelieshan only moved west to the north of Mobei to become Outer Khalkha, and Nali Bura Taiji moved south to Inner Khalkha.

The five sons of Hu Lahachi, the son of Nalibula Taiji, were in charge of the five divisions of Zarut, Balin, Horn, I, and Hongjira. Because fried flowers are the most powerful, they are also known as the "five major camps of fried flowers".

Due to the rise of Jianzhou, the focus of the Ming Dynasty's defense in Liaodong gradually shifted from Mongolia to Jianzhou.

This also led to the continuous infiltration of the Khalkha Five Divisions, led by the Ministry of Fried Flowers, into the Liaodong border of the Ming Dynasty. In particular, this fried flower department has repeatedly infested the Ming Dynasty, and has replaced the previous barbarians to become the number one enemy of the Ming Dynasty on the grassland.

However, at this time, there was also a conflict between the fried flower department and the Jianzhou Jurchens, which eased its relationship with the Ming Dynasty and was in a state of war and peace.

The small leaders of the five major battalions of fried flowers are: Zai Sai, Paw Er Rabbit, Guo Bing Rabbit, Zhuang Rabbit, and Braised Rabbit.

Among them, Zai Sai is the most powerful, with tens of thousands of troops and 5,000 horsemen.

Occupy the hometown of Fuyuwei and live in the middle reaches of the Liao River. As far as its influence reaches, it starts from Zalut in the west, crosses both sides of the Liao River in the east, controls the south of Horqin in the north, and borders the Liaodong of the Ming Dynasty in the south.

In terms of location, they are closer to Quang Ninh, and they have a good relationship with Marin, so Zai Sai hardly disturbs Kaiyuan.

Yu Shouzhi guarded Xiguan Horse Market, and had many private transactions with the fried flower department, so Master Liu was no stranger to Zaisai's camp.

When he entered the tent, he saw a young man with loose hair and a refined leather jacket sitting on it.

At this moment, Zai Sai was drinking and having fun with several of his henchmen, and he didn't have much reaction to Master Liu's arrival.

just waved his hand, motioned for Master Liu to sit down, and then said, "Then play music, then dance." ”

Zai Sai and the others drank fine wine, ate hand-grabbed mutton, looked at the young dancers who kept twisting their bodies, and directly regarded Master Liu as air.

Although he was unhappy in his heart, he could only accompany the smiling face at this time, who let himself ask for others.

Zai Sai hung Master Liu for a while before signaling to withdraw the song and dance.

While chewing on the mutton, he said: "I heard that the Kaiyuan General Army has been replaced, I'm afraid you have a hard time in the guerrilla era, right?" ”

No wonder Zai Sai's attitude towards himself is so cold today, it turns out that these Mongols are also well aware of Kaiyuan's situation, I'm afraid that today's errand will not be easy.

Master Liu said with a smile: "Liu is here for this matter today, and the new chief military officer of Kaiyuan is none other than Li Xianzhong, who went deep into Hetuala before and broke Jianzhou. ”

"As soon as this General Li took office, he rectified the soldiers and horses of Kaiyuan, and he will soon be out of the customs to sweep up, I am afraid that it will not be my family that is in the guerrillas, but your flower department."

The "Liaodong War" between Ming and Jin was not only a matter of both sides, but the surrounding Mongolian tribes were also very concerned about the movement of this battle.

They were already fighting hard and ready to do a big job.

As long as the Ming army is defeated, or its strength is greatly damaged, they will quickly go out and plunder the border passes of the Ming Dynasty.

It's just a pity, although there are constant rumors of this big war, there are all kinds of things.

But in terms of comprehensive intelligence analysis, Daming should have won.

The carload of people in Shenyang, as well as the heads of Li Yongfang himself with Amin and Abatai, all show that the Ming Dynasty has won.

Although Nurhachi once attacked the city of Shenyang, in the end, the army took the opportunity to sweep his lair and destroy the village of Gule.

These achievements all point to one person, Li Xianzhong.

Zai Sai laughed loudly and said: "The loss of Daming in this battle is not small, and now Jianzhou is still eyeing us, at this time Li Xianzhong dares to go out to find us trouble?" ”

Master Liu said: "Naturally, you wouldn't think like this if you were someone else, but don't forget, he is from the Li family in Liaodong." Li Chengliang started by fighting the Mongols back then, and now the Li family has to rely on military merits if they want to rise again. ”

Although Zai Sai smiled very confidently, they were still very jealous of the Li family in Liaodong in their hearts.

At the beginning, the Ming Dynasty offered a high reward for the heads of these Tatars, and Li Chengliang and Ma Fang, two killing gods, used the Mongols as copies every day to brush silver.

It is precisely because of Ma Fang's prestige that they are polite to Ma Lin today.

Not to mention Li Chengliang, who has been in Liaodong for more than 40 years, when the flower department was strong, many people died in the hands of Li Chengliang's father and son.

If it weren't for Li Rusong's accidental death, I'm afraid they would have fled to Mobei by now.

However, Zai Sai is not stupid, it is impossible to believe that Li Xianzhong will come to sweep himself up just by listening to a few words from Master Liu.

They Mongols also have a lot of eyes and ears in Kaiyuan.

Soon he beckoned a Mongol into the tent, and the man said: "Li Xianzhong is indeed reorganizing the armament on the original road, and all the battalions of the Ming army are recruiting and drilling, and all the soldiers who originally ate empty salaries have been replenished. In addition, the Liaodong Iron Cavalry of the Li family has also come to Kaiyuan, and the Ming army seems to have signs of going out. ”

Fooling people is like this, there is truth in the false, and there is truth in the false, so that you can't figure it out.

Master Liu said proudly: "I didn't deceive the leader of the slaughter, Li Xianzhong is really going to prepare for the expedition." ”

Zai Sai said: "That doesn't mean that what he wants to go on is my flower department, maybe he is going to attack Jianzhou again!" ”

Master Liu never thought that this Zai Sai was so shrewd, and he was not easy to fool at all, and he should have known that he should go to his uncle to stew rabbits first.

So he said: "It is naturally impossible to send troops all the way to Kaiyuan, and it will be at least half a year before the imperial court goes on the expedition again." As for whether the target of Li Xianzhong's sweep is the Flower Speculation Department, the leader of Zai Sai should know it in his heart? ”

In recent years, the fried flower department has repeatedly violated the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming army has basically fried the flower department when they go out of the customs and beat it; Even before Yang Ho went to Jianzhou this time, he also asked Li Rubai to sweep the fried flower department last year.

At this time, Zai Sai's tone softened a lot, and said: "What is the matter with Yu Guerrilla, it is not just to say that I am Zai Sai to beware of Li Xianzhong's exit, right?" ”

Master Liu said: "This time Yu Guerrilla is indeed asking for something, he hopes that the leader of Zai Sai will send troops to Xiguan, and when the time comes, we will work together to kill Li Xianzhong."

Zai Sai never expected that Yu Shouzhi would want to kill Li Xianzhong directly, it seems that he was really in a hurry.

However, this is a good opportunity for the fried flower department, and they have coveted the wealth of the original road for a long time, and they are worried that they have no chance, but they did not expect that the Ming army would have infighting.

He readily accepted the invitation.

Li Xianzhong and Yan Mingtai did not rush to Xiguan after inspecting the various camps in Kaiyuan, but stayed in Kaiyuan City for another day on the pretext of inspecting armaments.

Zhang Wenbing, the governor of Kaiyuan, thought that they were going to check the accounts, which made him feel like a great enemy.

Unexpectedly, Li Xianzhong just took Yan Mingtai to the warehouse at random to take a turn and check whether the grain was moldy and whether the gunpowder was damp.

Then I casually took the ledger and looked through it, but I didn't look it carefully.

Fortunately, Zhang Wenbing's management is still relatively strict, and there are no obvious mistakes.

Rao still scared him a lot.

This is the second time in a few days that Li Xianzhong has come to inspect the armament.

Who knows if he'll be real?

He also had to restrain his subordinates, and he was not allowed to do anything with materials for the time being, after all, the Liaodong Economic Strategy and the Liaodong Governor had not yet taken office, and there were still several waves of inspections behind.

Yan Mingtai said: "After the rectification of the virtuous brother, the appearance of Kaiyuan Road has taken on a new look, and it must be that even if Xiong Jingluo comes to inspect it in person, he can't find too many faults." ”

Li Xianzhong arched his hand and said: "It's better to use Brother Yan's prestige, otherwise these soldiers won't buy my account." ”

"But these horses are at most holding on to Xiacheng Pass, if you want to attack, you still have to rely on the elite troops, at present, there are a lot of new recruits in the Liaodong Iron Cavalry, and this time it is just to use the Mongols to practice their hands!"

Yan Mingtai said: "Brother Xian is so determined that Shouzhi will take risks? ”

Li Xianzhong smiled and said: "Let's open it in five or five, anyway, if I made people like this, I will definitely not obediently obey, but this time let Brother Yan compensate me for the danger together, and the younger brother is a little unhappy." ”

"I set up a banquet in Songhe Tower, and I should have made amends to Brother Yan in advance."

Early the next morning, Li Xianzhong and Yan Mingtai came to Qingyun Fort near Xin'an Pass under the escort of 500 Liaodong Iron Cavalry.

At this time, Xin'anguan guerrilla Yu Shouzhi had been waiting for them in Qingyun Fort for a long time, and when he saw that Li Xianzhong had only five hundred people around him, a sneer appeared on his face.

Soon, Yu Shouzhi welcomed Li Xianzhong and Yan Mingtai into Qingyun Castle.

Yu Shouzhi said: "There are a total of 1,500 people under the command of the last general, and now 500 men and horses are stationed in Xin'an Pass, and the remaining 1,000 people are all in Qingyun Fort. ”

It has to be said that people rely on clothes, and horses rely on saddles. Although half of the fort was a rabble brought in by Yu Shouzhi temporarily, he still looked very energetic in a neat red mandarin duck jacket.

Yan Mingtai said: "This prison army has inspected all the men and horses in Kaiyuan in the past few days, and all of them are not as energetic as the guerrillas. ”

Yu Shouzhi wanted to scold his mother in his heart, Lao Tzu spent a full 20,000 taels of silver, can it look untidy? However, he still said: "Yan Jian Jun praised it falsely, this is what the last general should do." ”

At this time, Li Xianzhong was looking at the surrounding environment, Yu Shouzhi should not have the ability to attack him directly, and he must still rely on external forces.

Although there were only 500 Liaodong iron cavalry he brought, there was no problem in fighting the 5,000 people of these rabble.

So he said: "Yu guerrilla, then let the brothers practice, just let us see the demeanor of your department!" ”

Just as Yu Shouzhi was waving the order flag in a fake manner, suddenly bursts of black smoke rose from Xin'an Pass in the distance.

Yu Shouzhi pointed there in a panic and said, "Oh no, the beacon tower in Xin'anguan has been ignited." If there is an enemy attack, it must be the Mongols who have come to invade the border. At this moment, Xin'anguan is empty of troops, and the last general will bring people to support! ”
