Liu Xingzuo now has a long official title - he was appointed as the young tutor of the prince, the Marquis of Dingbei, the Admiral Nuergandus and the Chief of the Marine Commander of the Beishan Road.

After receiving the military order from the Governor's Office of the Five Army, he was so excited that he was a little incoherent: "Hurry up, Xingxian, during the period when he led his troops to the Tatars for his brother, Nurkandusko will hand it over to you.

Hurry up, order someone to invite Xia Ezhe, Wang Haojie, Meng Fanxing, Liu Hang and others to come to see me!"

For the first time, Liu Xingxian objected to his elder brother's opinion: "Brother, it's right for the Governor of the Five Army to say that it was to be a dispatch of troops, but you are the chief marching officer of the North Mountain Road Admiral Nurkandus. It's not appropriate to lead troops to the Tatars personally? Otherwise, it would be better for me, the younger brother, to do it for you!"

Liu Xingzuo narrowed his eyes and smiled, "The military order said that Nuergandus ordered him to send 100,000 elite cavalry to the Tatars at speed, but nothing else was said!

Also, don’t take the idea of ​​leading troops to the Tatars, I still want to go!"

Liu Xingxian and his brothers didn't speak, but quietly watched Liu Xingzuo's ecstasy there.

After a long time, when Liu Xingzuo saw no one responded, he seemed to have just come back to his senses and asked curiously: "What are you all doing here?"

Liu Xingxian sneered and said, "I deeply admire your shameless look!"

Liu Xingzuo said with a dark face: "What does it mean to be shameless? I am feeling that the military order of the Governor of the Five Army Governor's Office is so good that he personally led his troops there. Is there any problem?"

Liu Xingxian said: "No problem, this has nothing to do with shamelessness. I just said you are too shameless."

Liu Xingzuo said threateningly: "Don't think that you are my brother, I wouldn't beat you up with military law. You know what a sin to despise Shangguan!"

Liu Xingxian didn't take Liu Xingzuo's threat at all, but instead sneered: "Haha!"

While the few people were ridiculing each other, Xia Ezhe, who was not far from Liu Xingzuo's commander, also rushed over.

Before the person came in, Xia Ezhe's hearty laughter came first: "Oh, Governor Liu summoned me to come over, I don't know what instructions?"

Liu Xingzuo sneered: "What's not good, can you, Mr. Xia come?"

Xia Ezhe, who had already entered the lobby, bowed to Liu Xingzuo and said with a smile: "I knew that you, Governor Liu, are particular and righteous. You must have called me here if you have something good, right?"

Liu Xingzuo nodded and laughed: "The Five Army Governor's Office ordered your troops to send 20,000 people to go to Tatars. As for these 20,000 people, they can be strong herders who know how to ride horses and shoot archery. There are no regulations left."

Xia Ezhe asked curiously: "Tartars? What's the matter? Could it be that they want to kill all the Tatar barbarians?

The Master said: Barbarians are beasts! Today, the females are hiding and rebelling tomorrow. They are all people with human faces and beasts, so they are difficult to be virtuous and easily surrender with their might.

It would be better if all barbarians like this die! Governor Liu Don’t worry, this time, I, Lao Xia, personally brought 20,000 spirits to ride over, and I will definitely capture all the Tatar barbarians to build the railway!"

Liu Xingzuo looked at Xia Ezhe with a confused look on his face, thinking in his mind which one said these words? It seems that he had never said them before, right?

Could it be the Luzi or Zhouzi that Your Majesty always mentioned? Or are you, Xiazi, made up?

After a while, Liu Xingzuo said, "No, this time I went to the Tatars to fight, the Tatar barbarians surrendered!"

Xia Ezhe was also stunned: "Zheng said, I examine myself three times a day. Could it be that the barbarians have realized their mistakes and turned to justice?

Since this is the case, we still have to give them a chance. Confucius said: There is no difference in religion. Since those barbarians regretted and surrendered, they can be allowed to build railways and atone for their sins.

But what did the Governor's Office of the Five Army bring us over?”

Liu Xingzuo couldn't help but stroke his forehead with his hand and fell into a state of contemplation - how did a good barbarian become this virtue?

Liu Xingzuo, who couldn't figure it out, simply said: "As the military newspaper of the Five Army Governor's Office said, the barbarian surrendered at one time, which made the soldiers in the Northern Expedition a little short of the staff.

Now not only here, but also the San Customs and all parts of the customs office should be drawn to the place to escort these barbarians into the customs to build railways.”

Xia Ezhe nodded and said, "It should be so that these barbarians can work hard to clear their sins as soon as possible. How good is it to be a dignified person."

Meng Fanxing, who has always been the background, couldn't help but say excitedly: "The Governor summoned me to come here. Are you planning to transfer me to Tatar?"

Liu Xingzuo nodded and said, "You are going voluntarily or not. After all, the situation in the Tatars is different from that in Nurkandus and Liaodong. If you go there, the risk is much greater than that now."

Meng Fanxing, Wang Haojie and Liu Hang looked at each other and smiled, "Whoever does this job is not tied to the belt. It's better to go back to farm as soon as possible to see the baby!"

Liu Xingzuo said: "That's it. You are ready after you go back. You will set off tonight and travel with light cavalry, carrying weapons, necessary food and water. The rest can be thrown here temporarily."

Xia Ezhe, Meng Fanxing and others no longer politely with Liu Xingzuo. They each gave their own salute and went back to pack their equipment.

...

Mosbatur finally slowly grabbed the reins of the horse and looked behind him.

The losses this time were really too great. The leaders, wives and children, were arranged in Hang Aishan, with enough distance from the battlefield to ensure safety.

However, a considerable number of the soldiers were lost to Yidu, and there was probably no hope of returning.

After calming down, Mosbatur looked at Balsborot and asked, "There is already such a situation. Do you have any good ideas?"

Barsborot said: "Khan, I remember a saying in the Chinese books that Baosha is a man.

A temporary failure is not a big deal. After we go back, we reorganize our troops and do not fight head-on with the Ming army. We just keep harassing them, which is enough to severely damage them!"

Mothbatull nodded, which also recognized Balsborot's statement.

The two people under his command are Balsborot and the other is Batumuk.

The previous battle with the Ming army was Batu Mengke's strategy of splitting heavy troops from the two wings to guerrilla Ming army.

But what's the result?

It would be fine if the strategy of the guerrilla Ming army failed with the left and right wings, but Batu Mengke, who was leading the left army, had already run away!

This is a naked betrayal of myself!

However, Balsborot, he proposed that the two wings should not be divided too much, and the later development of things was indeed as Balsborot expected, and the outcome of the two wings was a bit miserable.

At the moment, as Barsborot said, he gathered a strong and strong army against the Ming army, and it was purely his own pursuit of death.

It can be judged by the situation of the right-wing army that the Ming army's cavalry was not weak, and this was confirmed by the later Ming emperor's pursuit.

Although I don’t know if the dog emperor gave up on the pursuit because he was holding on to something, there will definitely be no good things.

As for the army in the middle, there is nothing to say. The overwhelming artillery fire alone is enough to make people feel desperate.

It would be better to gather a large army and scatter to fight with the Ming army.

If the Ming army dispersed its forces, the threat of artillery would be reduced to a minimum, and it could even be ignored.

If the Ming army did not disperse its power, then it could bite them tightly and tear a piece of meat from them when they were not paying attention.

No matter how strong the Ming army is, can they be more familiar with this grassland than themselves? Just dragging them to death!

Moreover, Ming Jun is not like himself. He has a tribe, cattle, sheep, and horse milk behind him. In short, it is very easy to survive.

But what about the Ming army?

Everything in the Ming army had to be replenished with logistics! Not only ammunition, but also food!

How much food and grass should be consumed along the way from the Ming Dynasty to the grassland? How could they drag it up?

He looked at Barsborot with appreciation, and Mosbatul smiled and said, "Then let's do it this way. Let's study the division of troops and keep raiding the Ming army, and not confronting them head-on!"

Balsborot bowed and said, "The Khan is wise!"

The wise Mosbatul ran away with his only 90,000 remaining horsemen. Now he has to run back and find ways to replenish food and soldiers.

Emperor Chongzhen, who was still near Yidu, was very upset.

During the more than twenty days of waiting for Liu Xingzuo and others to lead the troops, Emperor Chongzhen first experienced strong winds and then heavy rains. If he hadn't brought enough ginger before coming, I'm afraid that many soldiers would have discounted the number of soldiers in after these rains.

But when Liu Xingzuo and more than 130,000 horsemen rushed to Yidu from Nuergandusi, Emperor Chongzhen suddenly became unhurried.

After ordering people to roast the whole sheep, Emperor Chongzhen asked with a smile: "Your dear is still used to it in Nuergandus for many years?"

Liu Xingzuo bowed to Emperor Chongzhen and said, "Your Majesty, I am in Nuergandus, everything is fine, but the winter there will be colder, and nothing else is fine.

However, the ground force there is really fertile, and almost all of them can be squeezed out of oil!"

Emperor Chongzhen smiled and nodded, "Liaodong and Nuergandus have always been few people, and they have almost no consumption of ground abilities. Over time, the ground abilities are naturally fertile, which is far from comparable to the land in Guanzhong.

What about the people who went to Liaodong and Nurkandus? Are they still used to it?"

Liu Xingzuo said: "When you go back to your Majesty, the people are still used to it. The spring, summer, autumn and the Ming Dynasty are no different. Only in winter, the people return home to winter and burn the kangs hot every day.

In general, as long as you prepare more food at home in winter, there will be no problem if you don’t go out.”

Emperor Chongzhen smiled and said, "That's right, with a kang, who would still be willing to leave the house and get frozen?

By the way, what about the edge? Is there anything new? Let me tell you about it."

Liu Xingzuo thoughtfully and said, "I'm telling you, there are not many new things, but your Majesty's palace has been almost done, and it is expected that it will be completed before the autumn of this year."

Emperor Chongzhen was immediately interested.

My own palace is completely my own, and it is finally going to be completed?

According to the theory of drying and removing formaldehyde in later generations, I will be able to move in my palace next summer?

This can be available!

But once again, the whole world is full of one's own. What's the point of a mere palace? It's just that in summer you can take your wives and children to escape the summer heat.

Thinking of this, Emperor Chongzhen lost the interest of continuing to ask the palace again, and instead turned the topic to Dorgon and Bumubutai: "How are Dorgon and Bumubutai? Or, how are those Jiannu now?"

Liu Xingzuo thought carefully and said, "Your Majesty, Dorgon has been elected as the new Khan, and now he is also known as the pseudo-Emperor, and is attacking the north with the remaining Jiannu.

But the Maozi in the north is not easy to match. Both sides win and lose, and the damage is not light."

Emperor Chongzhen laughed and said, "It doesn't matter who is seriously injured and who is mild. Anyway, they are all barbarians. It's better to die if they die. What if they care about them."

Liu Xingzuo said: "Your Majesty said very well. Now the remnant Jiannu of Dorgon's troops has retracted to the vicinity of Wudi River.
To be continued...
