The 407th chapter wants to drive away the light cavalry, the snow is full of bows and knives (4)
After torture, General Zhang, who obtained the whereabouts of Lin Danhan's gold, sent three thousand personal guards of Zhang Ping'an, the most powerful unit of the Slave Army, to seize the gold. General Zhang's personal guards were basically composed of veterans with outstanding military achievements in each department. After serving as General Zhang's personal guard for one year, they were promoted from war soldiers to deputy general officers in the personal guard camp. After staying in the personal guard camp for half a year, they were transferred to various departments as general officers. If they gained military achievements in the personal guard camp, they could be directly promoted to general officers of each department.
The fact that Zhang Damao asked these personal guards to rob Lin Dankhan's gold could prove Zhang Ping'an's importance to this batch of gold. The Mongolian prisoners confessed that since their personal guards with gold were intercepted by the Posou Army, other cavalry carrying gold fled to the southeast. The errand for chasing Lin Dankhan's gold was handed over to Zhang Youhe, deputy general of the personal guards. This veteran who was good at tracking immediately led three thousand personal guards and galloped to the southwest grassland.
After Zhang Youhe left, Zhang Ping'an first went to Lin Danhan's camp to check the materials robbed by the Po Slave Army. After seeing it, Zhang Ping'an felt a little unhappy. If he had known that he would rob Lin Danhan, why would he have to do these empty things? So many things had to be transported back. I don't know how long it would take. Seeing Mr. Zhang's face full of words of depression, he gave him an idea: "Master General, how about we leave a part of it to other Mongolian tribes on the spot?"
"Ah! You're so fucking! I'm so famous on the grassland now. Who dares to do business with me?"
"Hehe, you can't say that. Qu Guozheng and his intelligence department did not report a notice. According to the Mongolians, a group of merchants who specialize in collecting fur came from the far west. It is said that the number of people is five or six thousand. How many people are there in the State Administration are verifying. If they have a large number of people, we can sell some goods to them!"
Zhang Ping'an was in a bad mood. He walked to a pile of goods piled with tea, climbed up with his hands and feet, and came to the top of the pile to watch. The entire Mongolian military camp was full of sight. The devastated Mongolian military camp was filled with fire and smoke, and there were still people and corpses everywhere. Gu Xin's suggestion did not attract his attention. After seeing it, Zhang Ping'an slid down from the pile of goods. After walking a few steps, he suddenly stopped and asked with confusion, "What's so strange about the Mongolians coming from the west? They are all like Lin Danhan. They know that we have robbed Lin Danhan and dare to trade with us? You can really funny!"
"Who said they were Mongolians? They were a group of weird people with yellow hair and blue eyes. They were quite capable of fighting. It is said that they beat the Mongolian White Horde (Author's note: After the demise of the Golden Horde, the descendants of the Qincha Khanate established the White Horde.) to the point of being beaten to death. The Mongolians said that these people lack salt and tea, and if they could sell them to these yellow-haired people, it would be much easier for us to go back."
After hearing Gu Xin's words, Zhang Ping'an suddenly shivered in an absent-minded expression. The soul deep in his heart thought of a possibility, could it be Lin Danhan's gold mountain that attracted the greedy Russians. If it was true, the Po Slave Army would face another difficult enemy. Thinking of this, Zhang Ping'an slapped himself hard and sighed in his heart: Damn! The wings that his birdman flapped indiscriminately actually flapped the Russians out.
Zhang Ping'an attached great importance to this spy. He led Gu Xin and Zhou Xing out of the broken military camp in Mongolia and rode to his commander's tent. On the way, the general Zhang issued a commander order: ordering Qu Guozheng to the commander to report the military situation. As soon as he entered the main camp gate, he saw the officers and soldiers of the Pou Nu welcome him with excitement and admiration. Zhang Ping'an walked more and more strangely. Why did the soldiers of the Pou Nu Army look like they had eaten, and regarded him as a commander as a monster?
The answer was not untied until Zhang Ping'an walked to the commander's tent. More than a thousand young Mongolian women knelt around the commander's tent and surrounded the commander's tent. Seeing this situation, Zhang Ping'an wanted to cry without tears. The joke he said when he was encouraging morale was taken seriously. The Posou Army asked him to perform Ye Yu Qiannu. Zhang Dashuai, who was so angry that he immediately spoke up: "Who is doing a good thing? Grandma's! How many big things do I have to do here? There are still people who want to murder me! He drove these women away with one knife!"
Zhang Dashuai's words were firm, and let the Qiangu General Hao Yidao disperse the Mongolian woman surrounding the tent of the coach. Zhang Dashuai was so angry that he did not continue to investigate who was doing this. Zhang Ping'an was so smart. Lu Deyin was dealing with the aftermath of the Mongolian military camp. He guessed that this was Lu Deyin's good thing. Lu Deyin did not leave any effort to lift Zhou Wei's circle. Zhang Dashuai's joke to calm the morale of the army was taken seriously.
Shortly after Zhang Dashuai entered the Zhengzhou tent, Qu Guozheng also carried the curtain and walked in. He was holding a cowhide briefcase. Seeing that Qu Guozheng and Zhang Ping'an ordered his personal soldiers to pour milk tea for everyone, and then asked Hao Yidao to warn him outside the account. Zhang Dashuai sat behind the Zhengzhou tent, Qu Guozheng and Gu Xin sat in the lower head, and Zhou Xing stood behind Qu Guozheng to help Qu Guozheng get the official bag.
"Guozheng, I'm asking you to come this time. I mainly want to ask about the situation of the yellow-haired man in the west. How many people did they fall to the ground? What weapons are they using?"
Qu Guozheng knew from the orders of the commander of the soldiers that General Zhang was concerned about what information he was concerned about, so he made preparations before coming to General Manager's tent. Qu Guozheng did not speak immediately, but thought for a while before slowly speaking.
"Master, after our army broke through the Mongolian camp, the Deyin tribe captured a strange Mongolian tribe. They claimed to be from the Golden Horde, but the grassland was reported that the Golden Horde had perished a hundred years ago. The curiosity of the post called the elders of this tribe to ask. They were descendants of Badu, and after the establishment of the White Horde, they were enfeoffed in the northeast of Shibier, and later moved to the upper reaches of the Anghan River."
Zhang Ping'an was a little confused about the unfamiliar place names such as Qu Guozheng. Qu Guozheng also saw Zhang Dashen's confusion expression and quickly took out the old Mongolia map copied by the General Staff with Gu Xin. He took out a briefcase from Zhou Shi, took out a few pages of interrogation paper to mark these place names on the map. Zhang Ping'an, who was very good at working on the map, probably knew the location of these unfamiliar place names in Qu Guozheng's mouth. This Mongolian tribe is at the junction of the Mongolian Yuan Empire and the Mongolian Golden Horde.
It was about 6,000 to 7,000 miles away from Helin. Zhang Ping'an was very interested in how they ran to Lin Dankhan's land. Fortunately, Qu Guozheng solved Zhang Ping'an's doubts. It turned out that when the Jin Horde (also known as the Qincha Khanate) was established, its main ethnic group was not the Mongols, but the Turks accounted for the vast majority. After Huatshuzimu was wiped out by Mongolia, it also integrated into the Golden Horde. Since the Golden Horde was defeated by the Ross many times, it was classified into three Khanate. More than 20 years ago, the Grand Duchy of Moscow in Ross was destroyed (1600 AD). The Siberian Khanate was killed in the war, and the Ross soldiers had reached the former border of the Great Yuan Empire.
The defeated Mongolian tribes continued to migrate eastward, hoping to find the strong Mongolians and continue their nomadic life under the protection of the strong. The rich and powerful Lin Danhan occupied the holy land and forests in the minds of the Mongols, and naturally became the target of these helpless Mongolian tribes wandering around. Many Mongolian tribes thousands of miles away could not bear the rule of alien races and drove cattle and sheep toward the Helin.
Although Qu Guozheng's remarks solved Zhang Ping'an's inner mystery, he felt even more restless. How many Mongolian tribes had defected to Lin Danhan and how many soldiers Lin Danhan still had in Lin? These questions will be answered by senior Mongolian officials. However, Zhang Ping'an still asked Qu Guozheng to invite this Mongolian elder, and he wanted to ask about the situation of the Ross himself.
After a while, the personal soldiers brought in a Mongolian old man with white hair and a panic expression. Zhang Ping'an quietly observed the Mongolian old man. The patched Mongolian robes were actually silk, which means that the old man has a good status in the tribe. His panic expression directly revealed that he was an old man who could ask anything. In view of this, Zhang Ping'an put a small table on the carpet, carved the Mongolian old man thoughtfully as if he was sitting, and then took a teapot from the stove to pour milk tea for the old man. He placed his own special snack on the small table, constantly using Mongolian dialect to resolve the inner uneasiness of the Mongolian old man.
Qu Guozheng and the others felt a little incredible when they saw Zhang Dashen treating Mongolian prisoners so well, and they couldn't understand what tricks Zhang Dashen was playing. In fact, Zhang Ping'an was a little anxious inside, and he was worried about future wars. In Zhang Dashen's view, at the critical moment of the decisive battle between the Po Slave Army and the Mongolian army, if a powerful foreign enemy was eyeing him, it would cause unforeseen dangerous factors to the Po Slave Army. If an army that had never been seen on the battlefield helped Lin Danhan fight, and this army would also use firearms such as muskets and cannons, it would cause huge casualties to the Po Slave Army.
It is precisely because Zhang Ping'an attached great importance to this intelligence. He wanted to eliminate this hidden danger in the final decisive battle with Lin Danhan. This was Zhang Ping'an's multi-faceted considerations, so he needed to get various basic information from the Ross people from the mouth of this Mongolian old man, and then piled up these basic information into key information. With the correct intelligence, the slave army can only attack the enemy and protect themselves in future wars.
"Old man, you have come to my grassland from thousands of miles away. According to the rules of our Han people, all the guests come from afar. Your tribe has more than 5,000 people, so let's graze here. I can give you two hundred stones of salt and three hundred stones of tea. If it's not enough, please come from me!"
