Chapter 159: Interrogation

Mi Tu's heart sank, "Reconnoiter the military situation? Could it be that the Mongols are really going to invade? Although Zhu Di has just won a great victory, he has not been able to shake the foundation of the imperial court, and the imperial court will definitely not stop there; the two sides have already fought a real fire, and it is already an endless situation, if the Mongols invade reactionarily at this time, I am afraid it will be a disaster." Mi Tu couldn't help but feel anxious in his heart, and immediately shouted impatiently to the Mongols: "Don't be wordy! Let's talk about the point, what is the purpose of you Mongols?"

Mi Tu's shouting and questioning made Bagen tremble even more, and he quickly kowtowed like garlic and said: "God spares my life! Now that we are in civil strife in Mongolia, the army is marching westward, but a few years ago, Mobei suffered heavy losses from the snow disaster, which made the rear supply insufficient. In order to supply the army, the Great Khan sent the prince of Tur south to fight the grass valley (打草谷: that is, to plunder the alien races. Although we have gained something outside the pass, it is still difficult to support the needs of the army, so the prince of Khuthur ordered the young people to sneak into the pass to spy on the military situation and see if there is a chance to enter the pass to loot. ”

Bagen said a lot of words, but Mi Tu's heart was shocked, and he immediately asked Bagan: "What is the civil strife in Mongolia? ”

Bagan said a call, although he was still afraid in his heart, but he was also a little more angry, and he didn't stumble when he spoke, and in order to survive, he quickly replied truthfully: "The little one is not too clear, but I heard that it seems that the leader of the Qiergis tribe, Guilichi, has rebelled (the Qiergis tribe: a branch of the Mongols, distributed along the upper Yenisei River), so the Great Khan is sending a large army to conquer him." ”

Although he knew that the Mongolian Genghis Khan had conquered the world, expeditioned to the far west, and created a Mongolian empire with a huge territory, he really didn't know how big the Mongol Empire was, let alone the distribution of various ethnic groups in Mongolia today. However, he knows very well that now Mongolia is in civil strife and its army is marching westward, which is a very celebratory thing for the Ming Dynasty, because in this way, the pressure on the northern frontier of the Ming Dynasty will be greatly reduced for a considerable period of time.

Although this can be said to be a great news for the righteous Mitu, there is no joy in Mitu's heart at this time. Yes, Mongolia is in civil strife, and its army will not be able to conquer the westward in the Guannei, which is indeed a great good news for the Ming Dynasty in the civil strife; but what about the Ming Dynasty? It is not that it is also impossible to look north; but at this time, Mongolia is wreaking havoc outside the Guanguan in order to replenish the needs of its army, where there are millions of Han siblings, whether it is the Ming court or Zhu Di, the king of Yan, do they still have the strength to protect their people? The answer is definitely no.

Mi Tu's heart was still very heavy, and he asked Bagan, "How many men and horses did you send to raid the northern Xinjiang this time?"

Now that Bagen has confessed Mongolia's biggest secret, the surname Suo has completely let go of the worries in his heart, and replied: "It is the two ten thousand households under the leadership of the prince of Khutur, and some time ago it was said that the prince of Khutur failed to raid Zhu Di, the king of Yan, and lost his troops, so the Great Khan was very dissatisfied with the prince of Khutur, so he ordered him to atone for his crimes. ”

"Two thousand households, that is, more than 20,000 soldiers and horses. This made Mi Tu's heart even tighter, "Now that Zhu Di has transferred all the elite of the Ming army outside the pass back to the pass to participate in the civil war, only the remaining old, weak, sick and disabled will definitely not be able to stop the Mongols' division of troops to attack, I really don't know what kind of hell on earth will be outside the pass at this time? No, I have to do something to do my part." Mitu told himself this, and he stared at Bagan with a cold light in his eyes, which suddenly made Bagan even more furious.

"Tell me clearly, how many of you are in this pass, what is the purpose, where are you now?" Mi Tu's cold words rang in Bagan's ears.

Bagen suddenly felt like falling into an ice cave, and hurriedly replied: "One hundred people, led by Lord Battle himself, our purpose is to explore the defense of the land of Daming Yan Zhao, so we are scattered and mixed into the pass, and after entering the pass, they are also scattered to act, so the small ones really don't know where the others are at this time." As he spoke, he secretly glanced at Mitu, and saw that Mitu's eyebrows were already twisted, and he hurriedly added: "However, Lord Battle has set us a meeting place after leaving the customs. ”

Mi Tu immediately asked, "Where? when?"

Bagen didn't dare to hide it, and hurriedly replied: "Outside the Shanhaiguan Pass fell into Fengling, three days later, the assembly time stipulated by Lord Battle is three days later. ”

"Three days? Calculate the time, now all the Mongols who have infiltrated the pass should want to hurry outside the pass. Mi Tu's heart couldn't help but tighten again, and he thought: "We must not let these people return to the Guanwai, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable." At this moment, Mitu suddenly heard the sound of footsteps behind him, and when he looked back, he saw Huzi quietly walking from the entrance of the village. Maybe he has already seen a more bloody scene, the little guy is not afraid of the bloodshed in the face of a place, and there is an inexplicable excitement on his face, he jumped to the front of Mi Tu, and asked Mi Tu with starry eyes: "Big brother, you are so powerful, you have killed so many bad people." ”

Mitu was very fond of the overly precocious tiger, stretched out his hand to pick him up, and reproached: "I don't sleep well, and I come out to fool around again." ”

Huzi pouted his mouth and said, "Big brother wronged me again, your fight was so loud that it woke me up, so Huzi ran out." ”

Mituru glared at him, and pretended to be angry and said, "Didn't I say that no matter what happens outside, you can't come out, why are you disobedient?" ”

Huzi still pouted and said unconvinced: "You know that the murder of me, our whole village is here." ”

Mitu looked up and saw dozens of people walking towards him at the entrance of the village, and everyone was holding sticks and other weapons in their hands, obviously everyone was very vigilant.

Grandma Huzi walked in the front, and when she got close, she looked at Mitu with a concerned face, and then said, "You're not hurt, are you? ”

Mi Tu was sorry in his heart, and quickly smiled: "It's okay, it's okay, it's just a few small ones, I'm really sorry for disturbing everyone." ”

Grandma Huzi reproached with an unhappy face: "What are you talking about! It's not all for us that you are fighting and dying here. ”

Her words immediately attracted a chorus of harmony, and some people even praised loudly: "Shaoxia has eradicated a group of villains today, and he is really our protector." ”

"There's another one here, we'll kill him!" Soon someone found Bagan who was kneeling on the ground and shaking in a ball, and she roared, and the whole village immediately surrounded her. They were all people who had suffered greatly from the rebellion, and now when they saw the main master, they would be polite, and they immediately greeted them with a stick.

Bagen had already been frightened by Mitu's iron-blooded methods, and did not dare to resist at all, he held his head in his hands and shrunk into a ball, and was beaten so that he screamed and begged for mercy, and the screams were like killing a pig. (To be continued.) )
