Chapter 095: Breaking the Captives (Medium)

The army of high pragmatism is about to arrive in Ixibir?

When Boshoketu and his generals heard this, they couldn't help but be stunned. Especially Boshoketu himself, he just said that he had calculated the marching speed of the Ming army, because it was too slow, and it would take at least two days to reach Ixibir, who knew that he would be slapped in the face by the facts so quickly, and his face was really a little unbearable.

Bo Shuoketu's face sank, and his voice began to turn cold from the enthusiasm just now: "What's going on?" According to your previous information, the headquarters of the Gao Shi Department is now at least one hundred and twenty miles away from Ixibir. ”

The implication of this is as simple as it gets: You were fucking lying about the military?

Ilduqi was very calm, and said solemnly: "This is the reason why I came to see Jinong in person - Gao Pragmatic suddenly accelerated his march three days ago, but I didn't ask the reason. And not only that, but three days ago, he suddenly strengthened his vigilance against me, and I was usually asked to be by his side, and I couldn't easily leave ......"

Bosoktu interrupted, "In that case, how did you end up here now?" Didn't you say, 'You can't leave easily'? Well? ”

As soon as he said this, the air seemed to immediately become a little cold, and the generals around him also looked at Ilduqi with blazing eyes. If he hadn't entered the camp alone, I'm afraid that someone would have to draw a knife at this time.

But Elduqi not only had no fear, but smiled and said, "Isn't this due to the fact that Ixibal is my Abu's domain?" By the way, Jinong, I don't know what you know about Gao Pragmatic? ”

Boshoktu couldn't figure out Ilduzi's intentions for a while, and said suspiciously: "Ixibar? Well...... What do you want to say? ”

Yile Duqi looked relaxed and said with a smile: "When it comes to pragmatism, the world always thinks of him first, Annan Dingbei, but I don't know that this person is probably still the richest man in the Ming Dynasty, sitting on countless industries." What 'ten thousand gold bottles of sake, and ten thousand jade plates', these are just a drop in the ocean for him.

Such a person, since he has arrived in a large border city settlement like Ixibir, he naturally has to pay attention to the places that should be paid attention to. He ordered me to go to Ixibal and prepare something for him......" As he spoke, he took out a piece of paper and handed it to one of the men beside him, so that he could present it to Boshoktu.

Boshoketu could barely recognize some of the Chinese characters, and although he didn't recognize all the things listed on the paper, he knew that they were all luxury utensils, and it seemed that some dishes were mentioned.

Bo Shuoketu's face was a little lighter, but he showed a hint of mockery: "I'm out on the march, and the battle hasn't looked like anything yet, but I want a lot of things, hum." ”

Ilduqi looked very approving, smiled in agreement, and said, "What Jinong said is very true, but it is thanks to his requirements that I can take the lead in reporting this new change to Jinong." ”

He paused, sighed, and said, "It's a pity that Gao Shishi is still suspicious of me, so he asked me to leave the other 17,000 warriors with him, and only allowed me to bring 3,000 horses to Ixibar...... Isn't this the case, the 20,000 warriors of my headquarters cooperated with the Jinong army, directly counterattacked and broke the Ming army, and captured Gao pragmatically in front of the battle, isn't it clean and neat? Where is there such trouble! He said with a look of regret.

Bo Shuoketu was full of doubts, and he couldn't help but feel a little regretful, but after thinking about it, he said: "You're right, this is a pity, but it's not a big deal, as long as you and Ben Khan kill together in front of the Ming army, won't your own people still defect?" When the time comes, his high pragmatism is still a dead end! ”

Ilduqi said happily: "Yes, that's exactly the truth. However, there is a situation to be told to Jinong. ”

Boshoktu had now relaxed his vigilance against Ilduzi, and nodded when he heard this: "What's the situation, you just say it." ”

Ilduqi said with a little sadness: "Because Ixibar is a large settlement on the border, it has become an important place for my Abu to operate in recent years, so I have strengthened my precautions and even built some brick walls...... Although it is not as high as the Ming people, it is also nearly a zhang high. ”

Boshoktu vaguely guessed what Ilduzi meant, but was not sure, so he asked, "So what?" ”

Ilduqi sighed: "Jinong may not know something, Gao Shi also brought some artillery here. If these things are erected on the city wall and bombarded downward, the power is probably not small. In addition, once he is inside the city walls, my 17,000 warriors will not be able to give full play to the cavalry advantage, and it will not be easy to turn against him......"

Boshoketu was quite decisive, and immediately said: "That's easy, let's just rush to Ixibar before Gao Shipra, and don't let him have a chance to enter the city?" Then after a pause, he asked, "Where is he now?" ”

After a moment's thought, Ilduqi replied, "I'm afraid in three or four hours we will be able to reach Ixibir." ”

Bo Shuoketu was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "Oops, it's so close? Then without saying a word, he immediately ordered: "Sons, the fighter plane is fleeting, and the opportunity to destroy the main force of the Ming army is just around the corner, everyone prepare, set off immediately, and rush to Ixibar!" ”

All the generals listened to the conversation between him and Ilduqi, and their suspicions about Ilduqi were gone, and now the rest were as eager as Boshoketu, and when they heard this, they immediately went to find their own troops to prepare to leave, and even the veteran did not hesitate to go back and lead the troops.

Boshoktu said to Ilduqi: "You Abu are the lord of Ixibir, and you are the master of this place, and you have led me with your three thousand warriors. Oh yes, when you get to Ixibir, I want you to work harder to trick Gao Shishi, and Ben Khan will set up an ambush to defeat him completely! After the deed is completed, what Ben Khan promised you will be honored immediately without changing a word. ”

Ilduqi looked surprised, hurriedly thanked him, and then bid farewell to Boshoketu, and hurriedly led the troops to lead the way.

The vicinity of Huri Huliang is not the "steppe" that Mongolians think of when they mention it, but a more typical landform of the Loess Plateau. However, at this time, the Loess Plateau was not as bad as in later generations, there were still some woods and shrubs, but the grass was not verdant, and some loess that was not covered by green was often exposed on the surface.

At this time, the snow melted and the ice melted, and these not too dense woods and shrubs were also rejuvenated, bringing a lot of greenery to the Loess Plateau, and at the same time creating a foundation for the soldiers and horses of the Gao Shi Shoji to hide and hide. Especially on the Loess Plateau, there are many deep ravines and ravines, and Ma Gui hid his troops and artillery battalions in the dense ravines, which are not easy to find.

Ma Gui himself was also hiding in a ravine, and at this time, a scout came to report, saying: "The news from General Totok says that the department of Boshoketu is galloping at full strength, and the three thousand men who started are indeed Ilduqi. ”

Ma Gui snorted lightly and said to Ma Chengzhao beside him: "It seems that this guy Ilduqi is inevitably going to make a great contribution this time, but I don't know what the King of Shunyi will do with Bo Shuoketu after the war...... If he scraps the Bosho Ketu and replaces it with Ilduqi or something, the set will be in chaos. ”17

Ma Chengzhao didn't care about this, he was still concerned about whether he could make military achievements, so he asked: "What kind of merit has Yileduqi made, it shouldn't conflict with us, right?" ”

Ma Gui thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "There should be no conflict, but the specific situation depends on how the cardinal platform considers." If the Shutai wants to increase its infiltration of the right-wing departments, maybe he will deliberately use the Mongols and us together to make contributions, and that will have some impact. ”

Ma Chengzhao suddenly looked like he had a toothache, and said unhappily: "It turns out that this guy is actually here to steal credit?" He didn't dare to say that Gao was pragmatic, so he had to sprinkle his anger on Ilduqi.

Ma Gui snorted lightly and said dissatisfiedly: "What are you unhappy about?" How much credit you can get depends on how capable you are, can you stand out if others don't make great contributions? If someone else has made a great contribution, can't you rise to prominence? As long as you work your own, the credit you deserve is indispensable here in the high cardinal, what do you care about others? ”

Ma Chengzhao didn't dare to talk back to his father, so he had to shut up stupidly.

After a while, Ma Chengzhao suddenly pointed to the west and said, "Father, Bo Shuoketu is here." ”

Like him, Ma Gui leaned over the shrubs at the edge of the ravine, and said calmly when he heard this: "The smoke and dust in front of this head are smaller, and the three thousand people in Ilduqi, and the yellow dust rolling behind is the main force of Boshoketu...... Well, the two armies are only about a mile apart, but that's not easy......"

Ma Chengzhao pouted and said: "What's not so easy to do, my father is worried that when he beats Bo Shuoketu, he will slap Ilduqi's ass by the way?" ”

Ma Gui glanced at him coldly and said, "If you think that 'accidentally injuring' the Ilduqi department is harmless, then you'd better withdraw to Iksibar now, and go to help the cardinal, so as not to harm our Ma family." ”

Ma Chengzhao was stunned for a moment, and then said with some disbelieving: "What's the big deal about this Ilduqi, it's just that he accidentally injured a few domestic slaves under his command, and it didn't hurt him by mistake, so this can also harm the Ma family?" ”

Ma Gui's tone was still very cold: "Childish! For the sake of an Ilduqi, the cardinal took so much effort, and even the general Tokh came to make a show, do you think it was just because of the 20,000 cavalry under the command of Ilduqi? ”

Ma Chengzhao spat out and said, "That's not it, isn't there nearly 20,000 horses?" That's 40,000 ......."

"Say you're naΓ―ve, it's naΓ―ve." Ma Gui snorted lightly: "You are called a rat." ”

Ma Chengzhao was unconvinced: "What is my father's opinion?" ”

Ma Gui stretched out his hand and patted Ma Chengzhao's helmet with a "snap", and Ma Chengzhao shook it, although it didn't hurt, but he was a little dazed. Then Ma Guicai snorted coldly: "Lao Tzu taught you, do you dare to be yin and yang?" If you turn back, you must go back and copy the Book of Filial Piety a hundred times. ”

Ma Chengzhao opened his mouth, but according to his experience, if he talked more at this time, a hundred times might become two hundred times, so in the end, he honestly shut up.

Seeing that he was honest, Ma Gui opened his mouth and said, "Although I can't guess all of the cardinal's plan, I think that this Ilduqi is probably going to come into operation...... It is likely that the cardinal will set him up as an example for the Taiji of the complete set, that is, the horse bone that the daughter buys the horse bone, so he will definitely be very kind to him. In that case, you accidentally injured his subordinates at this time, in case he goes to the cardinal to cry, what do you let the cardinal do? ”

"Our Ma family is a cardinal descendant!" Ma Chengzhao's eyes widened and said, "Could it be that the cardinal platform will blame us for this?" ”

Ma Gui said helplessly: "It is possible that the cardinal may choose to help the Ma family, or it may choose to help Yile Duqi." Helping the Ma family, that means that the role of Ilduqi is not particularly important at the moment; Helping Ilduqi means that the cardinal will soon have a big plan for the set......

But no matter how the cardinal chooses, the impression that you Ma Chengzhao is ineffective will remain in the cardinal's heart, and how many opportunities can you expect to make meritorious contributions in the future? Do you still expect a chance to rise to the top?

Dream! Even you can guess that at this time, the cardinal will most likely transfer you to a shit guard that is not close to the border, and let you honestly polish your mind there, maybe three or five years, maybe seven or eight years, or even let you stay for ten years, and then you will have some chance to prove it to him when you have green hair on your back - are you willing to go? ”

Ma Chengzhao was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "Then I am naturally unwilling, it is too uncomfortable not to fight." ”

Ma Gui snorted coldly: "Then you will honestly do what Lao Tzu said, don't make trouble for Lao Tzu, let alone make trouble for the cardinal, do you hear?" ”

"Yes, yes, what the father said is that the son must be behaving." Ma Chengzhao nodded hurriedly.

Ma Gui turned his head and saw that the three thousand cavalry of Ilduqi over there had already come down the mountain, and it was only about three miles away from the foot of the mountain. Ma Gui said to Ma Chengzhao: "Be careful to play the flag, let them go, and remind the sons and daughters to pay attention by the way, they will soon wait for the main master, and cheer up the handsome." ”

Ma Chengzhao immediately complied, and after finishing the matter, he suddenly pointed to the department of Ilduqi, and said with some surprise: "Hey, this Tartar is quite shrewd...... Father, look, he's speeding up. ”

Ma Gui also noticed that when Ilduqi's troops were about to reach the foot of Huri Huliang Mountain, they suddenly increased their speed and quickly widened the distance between them and Boshoketu, and couldn't help but groan: "It seems that Ilduqi is not particularly at ease with us...... Hmph, but it doesn't matter, it's easier for Lao Tzu to play with this distance. ”

Then Ma Gui stopped talking nonsense, glanced at the roaring Ilduqi Division, and then carefully stared at the Boshoketu Division, and said to Ma Cheng: "Beat the flag, cut off the Boshoketu rebels from the middle!" By the way, let the mines in the artillery battalion explode on time, don't kill the boy Boshoketu on the spot, the cardinal has already promised General Tokhtu to let him take Boshoketu to Naturalization City to restore his life. ”
