Chapter 260: Into the Set

"Hmmm! It is indeed not as mysterious as they say, and they have been defeated one after another, Khalkha, Balhu, and Ba'alin.

It seems that these three ministries are somewhat slack, especially the Khalkha Ministry, which has been completely defeated.

But it doesn't matter, waste has no value left behind. ”

The other assistant leader also grinned lightly, and his expression almost didn't have the word arrogance written on his face.

They are the two leaders of the Noyan Department, and the former is called Noyan Buhua. The latter's name is Noyan Balth.

"Well, that's good! I heard that the Khalkha tribe has been busy doing business all year round, and now it is also to blame for its demise, as for the Balhu, the two tribes of Ba'a and Afghanistan are not strong clans, and it is normal for them to be defeated.

But this Nanren regular army is really a little different, more powerful than the last time it was encountered, at least there is nothing to say about riding and swordsmanship. ”

Nuo Yan's tone began to be a little solemn.

Although self-confidence is a good thing, excessive self-confidence is pride and complacency.

"Yes! And you don't notice, this group of southerners seems to have some spare hands, they obviously carry muskets, and when they charge, they obviously have room to fire two or even three volleys.

And according to the feedback of previous intelligence, this unit is normally capable of firing at least three salvos.

But this time they only fired a salvo and couldn't wait to engage us in hand-to-hand combat, which is suspicious! ”

Balth frowned, and in retrospect it was very wrong.

But the people on the side don't have other ideas.

"Do you even need to think about it? I have long heard that this group of southerners is short of supplies, most likely because they are short of ammunition.

You don't see, a few of the guys seemed reluctant to fire a few more shots as they charged, but their commander should have told him in advance.

It's better to pay a little price than to save bullets.

They're running out of water. ”

I have to say that it is very reasonable not to spend this line of thinking, and Balth thinks that this is the truth after thinking about it.

After all, on the battlefield, under the crisis of life and death, if it is not to save bullets, there is no reason to shoot more and reduce the enemy's vital forces.

"Yes, it's a pity that we didn't intercept the prisoners this time, otherwise we would have known if it was the feared regular army that was fighting against us."

"Do you need to ask? This is certainly that regular army, and their combat capabilities speak for themselves. ”

didn't smile lightly, and didn't take it to heart.

"Okay, it's time for us to send someone to the base camp to report, I want to see how surprised the Heyan Banner Lord will be when he hears my battle report."

At this time, when he returned to the camp, he saw Zhao Ming pulling the bowstring into the dirt in the distance and shooting the arrows in his hand.

The reason why he didn't put the target, Wang Er felt that it was likely to be an ordinary target, and it was difficult to withstand his own Zhao Ye's arrow.

"How's it going?"

"Everything went according to plan." Wang Er replied with a sigh.

He didn't quite understand what Zhao Ye was going to do next, but Zhao Ye had told him to do it.

"Don't go out tomorrow, no matter what they do tomorrow, they won't go out, and in addition, strengthen the nearby defenses and make a strict defensive posture.

By the way, the cannons captured from them were also taken out and placed in a conspicuous and less conspicuous place near the tent. ”

Zhao Ming put down the bow and arrow in his hand and casually instructed.

Until Wang Er left, Zhao Ming's expression remained the same, and the trace of doubt on Wang Er's face before was not hidden from him.

But many things in this are very difficult to explain, and Zhao Ming does not need to explain them in detail. It also happens to be a test to test the obedience of Wang Er.

In any case, Zhao Ming knew very well that his group would eventually move towards normality, and it was impossible and impossible to always act according to the previous rules.

The next two days were relatively peaceful, but many herders and brothers patrolling the neighborhood noticed that the frequency of Mongolian scouts in the neighborhood had become more frequent since yesterday.

It wasn't until noon today, after a few days, that the old grandson who had returned with more than 100 people escorted a convoy slowly towards this side.

If it weren't for the people in the camp to pick them up, I was afraid that they would be plundered by these frequent Outer Mongolian scouts on the way.

This is because they have already detoured, otherwise they will only encounter Outer Mongolians more frequently.

As soon as he came back, Lao Sun Tou reported the situation this time, "Master Zhao, that Chief Officer Zhang sent us a few hundred stones of grain this time.

However, the chief seems to have openly and secretly said that he would let us make more meritorious contributions, and he seems to be very willing to pay for our meritorious deeds. ”

Hearing this, Zhao Ming smiled.

This time it is also a test, that is, to test whether this Chief Officer Zhang will compromise and accept this kind of hidden deal.

Zhao Ming also knew that no matter how much credit he made, in the end, he would inevitably share half of the profit to this Chief Officer Zhang, which was also the reason why he would rather share some of the credit to the head of the regiment than take the credit for himself.

I may not be too lazy to ask for sporadic small credits, but this kind of big credit, it is impossible for the other party to find a way to share some profits.

Now that the deal is done, the follow-up can continue.

"Looks like we're going to have to do a big job tonight." Zhang Kai also smiled and nodded on the side.

Zhao Ming also smiled and bowed, showing that the enemy was weak for so many days, it was time to inflict a heavy blow on the other party.

The old grandson was a little confused, he had just come back and didn't understand that he had done a lot of operations during this period.

"Master Zhao, are you saying that you are going to be ruthless to the outer Mongolian people? But will this scare the Outer Mongolians away? ”

"Hehe, don't be afraid!"

Zhao Ming chuckled and shook his head, if it was before, the other party would run nine times out of ten.

Especially through the interrogation of prisoners of war, as well as some memories obtained by touching the corpse, I learned that although this beggar banner master did not have much military talent, he was definitely an old and respectful old noble.

This kind of person cherishes his feathers very much, likes to keep one hand in his work, and always does not like to put his eggs in one basket.

If you deal with this kind of person, you can't cripple him in one go, and then there will be no drama to sing about.

Of course, if Zhao Mingru simply wanted to expel the Outer Mongolians, he would be ruthless, and he would soon be able to scare the other party into evacuating quickly.

But since they have all said that they will eat it all, how can they still let the meat in their mouths fly.

At this time, Zhang Kai on the side had already explained, "Old Sun, this matter is a long story, but you can't be in a hurry to deal with this beggar banner master."

These days when you're away, the other party has already been trapped. Although I don't know how a cautious person like him would fall into the trap, I think eighty percent of it has something to do with factions.

It is difficult for a voice to appear in a collective, and when there are many people, there are more people to worry about.

If you want me to see, most of this beggar banner owner was after the loss of the artillery battalion, and he couldn't raise much confidence to speak, so he was coerced and forced to stay here. ”
