What can you think of in the Prairie?

The vastness and desolation are definitely a common word, but for Qi He, he feels like one now, that is, cold. The north wind is blowing, and the clothes on his body have long been penetrated.

This is not the most unbearable thing, the most unbearable thing is the cold wind blowing on the face.

The feeling of being cut like a knife was really worse than death. After a few days of arrival, there was a hole on his face. Applying a little badger oil made Qi He feel a little better.

After looking at Li Dong, Qianhou who was sitting next to him eating meat, Qi He was a little depressed.

This man from the northwest seemed to be very dissatisfied with this kind of weather. Although his face was blown red, it did not mean that it was dry and cracked. The maroon face was very rough, but it looked very useful.

A piece of lamb was inserted into the knife in his hand, roasted it on the fire, and then stuffed it into his mouth.

He picked up the wine bag next to him and took a sip. He looked up at Qi He and seemed to see him not eating. He smiled and said, "Mr. Qi, there is a saying in the northwest that is called 'If you have food in your stomach, don't panic'. If you are hungry, you will be even colder."

Qi He smiled bitterly and shook his head: "We have been waiting here for so long, so they should have arrived, right?"

"It's almost!" Li Dong nodded and said, "Our tent is not good. When we arrive at Oirat, their tents will not be so cold. Although Lord Qi suffered this time, he has made great contributions."

Qi Heze continued to smile bitterly. Thinking of the contents of his imperial edict, Qi He didn't feel that his job would go smoothly this time.

Bu, the son of the third lady, was condemned to be King Shunyi, which was to cause trouble. After the imperial edict was released, many people in the court opposed it, but the emperor still issued an imperial edict. As the minister of the Ministry of Rites, he ran to the grassland to spread the edict. He didn't think about the merits and just stop causing trouble.

"Sir, there is a roar!" A hundred households in armor walked in and spoke to Li Dong.

Putting half-baked meat into your mouth, Li Dong reached out and inserted the dagger into the scabbard, stood up and said, "Let the brothers cheer up, saddle and bow and string it, don't let someone take us."

"Send the horse to go out and see if there is any abnormal movement. We can't take our lives here where birds don't poop."

After looking at Qi He, Li Dong said, "Mr. Qi, you are ready too. If something is wrong, we will protect you back."

Seeing Li Dong walk out of the tent, Qi He dared not be negligent. This place is not the Ming Dynasty. If you really want to make trouble, there will be no place to shout for justice. Not long after, there was a neigh outside.

Then there was the rumbling sound of horse hooves, and the whole earth seemed to tremble.

Qi He was so nervous that he saw the curtain lifting the tent. Li Dong walked in from outside, looked at Qi He, and said, "It's from Oirat. Mo Rigen brought the people here, and came to pick up the lord!"

After hearing this, Qi He finally breathed a sigh of relief. Then he felt a little cold. It turned out that he was so nervous that he was sweating.

It was not set off that night, and Qi He also ate a little meat before going to bed. However, he didn't dare to eat too much, and his appetite was not very good. If he had eaten too much meat, he wouldn't have to sleep at night.

After getting up early the next day, the group set off to rush to Guihua City.

The atmosphere along the way was pretty good, but what people didn't expect was that just as soon as they walked out, a pair of Oirat cavalry rushed over. Judging from the scale, it was more than 5,000. The cavalry ran, and it was as shocking as the earth.

"Array!"

What Qi He and Li Dong did not expect was that they had no reaction yet, and Mo Rigen spoke first.

The cavalry brought by Mo Rigen quickly unfolded, directly maintaining the combat posture, unsheathed the knife and styling the bow, and being ready to attack at any time. This made the Ming side unclear. Is this an internal strife?

Thinking of the imperial edict in his chest, Qi He felt guilty. Could it be that something went wrong?

As the Minister of Rites, Qi He couldn't understand his mission this time. Before coming, he also understood the situation on the Oirat side. After Altan Khan's death, the Oirat forces fought very hard.

One is a force headed by the San Niangzi, and the other is a force headed by Altan Khan's eldest son Huang Taiji.

In the last few years, Altan Khan was already terminally ill and could not be in charge of the affairs. The entire power of the Oirat was in the hands of the third lady. The third lady still held the ten thousand personal guards given to him by Altan Khan, who were the elite among the Oirat elites.

Although there are not many people, they have strong combat power and strong strength with the support of the Olachilagut tribe.

Now the third lady is just right, and the imperial edict in her arms is just right, and this also represents the Ming Dynasty's support for the third lady, which is very clear.

The third lady's son Bu was only eight years old and was just a child, but he was not the third lady's decision.

You should know that what Huang Taiji now occupies is Dayi. He is Altan Khan's eldest son and the blood of the Golden Family. However, with this imperial edict, Bu He is the nominal King of Shunyi, and Bu He is also Altan Khan's son!

At this time, Li Dong also saw something wrong and gave a wink at the deputy general beside him.

Although Li Dong brought only one thousand people this time, they were all elites from the Ming Dynasty. All of them were well-equipped and had rich combat experience. They were the ones who followed Ma Fang to attack the grassland back then.

With Li Dong's order, the Ming army behind him also set off in an instant.

"Morigen, I need an explanation!"

Li Dong arranged his subordinates and came to Mo Rigen's side by horse. He said in a deep voice: "When you arrived in the capital, I treated you with courtesy and received the summons from my Emperor of Ming."

"What's going on now? Siege envoys, are you going to go to war with the Ming Dynasty?"

You should know that the Ming Dynasty is no longer the Ming Dynasty. Altan Khan was not afraid at all when he was alive, not to mention that the old man Altan Khan was already dead. The Ming army has this confidence after so many years of confidence.

At this time, the Ming army was not afraid to go out of the frontier, but they dared to go out of the frontier with the Oirat to fight a war.

In July of the 39th year of Jiajing, General Liu Han ordered the generals Wang Mengxia, Ma Lu, and guerrilla Xu Qin to defeat the general captain Erwei, Ge Qi, and the guard Liu Benjing, and select 3,000 elite soldiers to lead the sprint out of the country.

Liu Han himself, Deputy General Zhao Ke, General Sun Wu, and Zheng Xiao led his heavy troops to divide three posts to reach Yulin Pass and then stationed to serve as a backup support. Meng Xia and others led these three thousand elite soldiers to march at night.

After running for a night, the Ming army arrived in Fengzhou at dawn and then launched an attack on Bansheng City. The defenders of Bansheng City did not notice it and fell into chaos and collapsed unexpectedly.

The target of this battle was Altan Khan, and he was also attacking Altan Khan's palace, but Altan Khan was not in the palace.

The Ming army that invaded the city quickly found and entered the palace area, and then set fire to burn all the buildings.

These three thousand people ran wildly on the grassland to attack. The Altan Khan reinforcements who followed not only failed to leave these three thousand, but were also repelled. It can be seen that the Ming army had the strong confidence. In addition, Ma Fang and Altan Khan fought for several years later, and Altan Khan suffered a great loss, which led to the later Longqing peace talks.

Altan Khan accepted the title of the Ming Dynasty and was granted the title of King Shunyi. The Ming Dynasty is not afraid of going to war with the Oirat now.

After hearing Li Dong's words, Mo Rigen also had a headache. He didn't expect Huang Taiji's people to come so quickly. In fact, the third lady is no longer in Guihua City, and she has already had a falling out with Huang Taiji.

The third lady brought her son and the 10,000 personal guards given to her by Altan Khan, and now she has been promoted to the city of Bancheng.

Now both sides say that the momentum is almost the same, and the third lady made up her mind to take the envoys of the Ming Dynasty to Bansheng City first, while Huang Taiji wanted to grab the people to Guihua City. It seems that she still couldn't hide it from Huang Taiji, so maybe the war will start today.

"General Li, those are Huang Taiji!" Mo Rigen pointed to the opposite side and said.

Li Dong frowned. He was a border general. Of course he knew about the bad things about Ola, but he didn't know about the third lady's fall in love with Huang Taiji. However, as soon as Mo Rigen said, he understood.

"Huang Taiji's people? So what about Huang Taiji's people?" Li Dong said with a calm face: "Huang Taiji's people can surround the envoys of the Ming Dynasty? What do he want to do?"

Mo Rigen looked at Li Dong. He didn't know if Li Dong was awesome or pretended, but Mo Rigen knew that Daming's envoy could not let Huang Taiji go to Guihua City with Huang Taiji's people. Once the person was taken away by Huang Taiji, something would happen.

After walking a few steps forward at the horse, Mo Rigen shouted loudly: "Who are you? Why are you blocking your way?"

"Mo Rigen, Ben Khan is here to welcome the envoys of the Ming Dynasty!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a man on the other side came out as a horse and said loudly, with a very rude tone: "What do you Olachilagut tribe want to do? Do you want to betray Ben Khan?"

Mo Rigen was stunned. Huang Taiji actually came in person? He didn't even care about Huang Taiji's claim to be Ben Khan.

"I came to receive the envoys of the Ming Dynasty to Bansheng City on the order of the Third Lady. If you want to hear the imperial edict of His Majesty the Ming Emperor, then come to Bansheng City!" Mo Rigen was not polite at all and spoke directly.

"Mo Rigen, I won't talk nonsense to you. The envoy of the Ming Dynasty must go to Guihua City!"

Huang Taiji was not showing any weakness at all. At the same time, with his wave of his hand, the cavalry behind him suddenly started to clamor, obviously there was a tendency to charge.

Mo Rigen's face suddenly became ugly. This time he brought one thousand cavalry, plus one thousand cavalry of the Ming Dynasty, only two thousand cavalry, and facing the five thousand cavalry of Huang Taiji, he had no chance of winning at all.

Besides, would the people of the Ming Dynasty be willing to fight this battle with Huangtai Kyrgyzstan? Obviously it is impossible!
