"Okay." Xu Youzhen looked at the holy decree, looked at it carefully, and after finding no problems, he said happily at the moment. With this decree, he has made a great achievement. With this achievement, his position in the Yang family is stable.

After all the ministers left, Xu Youzhen returned to the palace of the Beijing division when it was nearly dark, and then ordered people to prepare the luggage, and he left the Beijing division early the next morning, and went straight to the direction of the Xuanfu from the Beijing Ming division under the protection of a thousand guards.

On the grassland, after several days of preparation, under the orders of the leader of Yasen, the Warat tribe began to attack the city of Sanbulagawa. They used the previously captured red-clothed cannons of the Northern Ming Dynasty to bombard the city wall, attacking their shields with their own spears, causing a lot of pressure and casualties to the Shiwan Mountain Department.

Fortunately, there is nothing else in the city, and there are many generals. Nearly 200,000 Beiming generals, under the leadership of General Shi, took turns to defend the city, and the two sides soon fell into a stalemate.

Most of the Warat tribes are cavalrymen, and they are not very good at work such as sieges. Although relying on the red-coated cannon, they had a certain advantage, but the number of shells was limited, and it didn't take long for the bottom to be seen. Seeing that the will to resist of the Northern Ming army was very strong, and he knew that the artillery could no longer achieve the purpose of capturing the city, he first sent people to the Yili Dynasty to ask for help, asking them to send troops to participate in the war, but there were benefits, and the two families could share the income equally.

It is also a collection of places, located in the north of the Hetao and east of the Yili Dynasty, and is also an important transportation town. At this moment, a generation of virtuous ministers, Saeed Airi Alip, that is, the prime minister of the Yili Dynasty, is here to receive General Kunsha, who has just retreated from the front.

After Kun Sha saw Prime Minister Alipu, he told all the things about wanting to negotiate peace with the Five-Star Army, but he couldn't, and was attacked by the other party, and then he was aggrieved, and asked the Prime Minister to avenge his blood hatred, and also to avenge the loss of 27,000 cavalry warriors.

Alipu is a well-known virtuous minister in history, with a unique vision and a very assertive attitude. He didn't listen to Kun Sha's words, but comforted the other party and persuaded him to rest, and then he called Kun Sha's lieutenant Uliji, and one of the fifty soldiers who had been followed by another captured lieutenant and Kegen. Through the conversation with them, I learned the truth of the matter.

Sitting alone in the mansion, Alipu's expression was extremely complicated. He had already found out that he had been cut off his nose only after he had spoken disrespectfully to Kegen, and then they thought they had learned the truth of the Five-Star Army and wanted to carry out a night attack, but they were defeated by the camp.

Speaking of which, all this seems to be unreasonable for oneself, but in fact, it is the cavalry of Yili who suffers, as their prime minister, he must also do something, otherwise the morale of the army will inevitably be deeply hit, if so, I am afraid that the army will not be able to lead it.

In front of him were scouts and intelligence departments sent everything about the past history of the Five Star Army, and Alipu got an answer, the Five Star Army was a very difficult opponent to deal with with because of its strong combat power and financial resources. In particular, they are developing so fast that it gives people a jaw-dropping feeling. He even had a hunch that if the Five-Star Army was allowed to develop like this, he was afraid that sooner or later a big war would break out between Yili and Li, and if that was the case, it would be impossible for him not to fight.

Even if there is a battle sooner or later, why not have a bloody battle when the other party is not ready, even if you can't destroy the five-star army, you can also consume the opponent's strength through this battle and give yourself more time to develop.

Alip is a man with a very long-term vision. It's like when someone else sees only one step in front of him, he already sees what happens two steps later. In the future, in order to maintain the general situation of the steppe, he finally made preparations to attack the Five-Star Army.

Alipu, who didn't sleep all night, ushered in a night's rest early in the morning, and the energetic General Kunsha, and then the prime minister said in a very positive tone: "The five-star army has hit our army hard with despicable methods, which is unbearable, for the sake of the dignity of Yili Li, this time I must also teach the other party a good lesson." ”

"The Prime Minister is wise." After Kun Sha got the support, he said excitedly.

"Hmm." Alipu nodded, and the tone of his words also changed: "It's just that the five-star army is not so easy to deal with, even if you want to fight, you have to find a way to win, and the alliance with the Warat Department has become an inevitable trend, so let's go to the Shajing area first, and then fight after discussing it with the leader of Yexian." ”

"The last will obey." Kun Sha saw that this was going to be a big fight, and his face flushed with excitement at the moment, and the time for meritorious service and revenge had come.

Yili sent a total of 180,000 troops to the kingdom of Li at the request of Yexian this time, except for the 10,000 cavalry, 20,000 infantry and 30,000 cavalry that were eaten in the hands of the five-star army, the other 100,000 cavalry and 50,000 infantry were all brought to the battlefield.

And this time, in order to achieve the goal of severely inflicting a blow on the five-star army in a sortie, after Prime Minister Alipu gave an order, the 150,000 army can be said to have come out, starting from Yiji Naicheng and marching towards the Shajing area hundreds of miles away.

The Hetao region thus left only General Bermur of the Warat tribe and his 80,000 cavalry and 20,000 infantry. But even so, the still frightened Datong general soldier cowered in Ningxia Wei and did not dare to take a step.

Over the years, Yexian's strength has also increased, with a total of 270,000 soldiers, of which all but 20,000 are cavalry. In addition to the 100,000 troops left behind in the Hetao area, he still has 170,000 cavalry in his hands, and most of them are warriors who can fight well, which is a huge force that cannot be underestimated.

It's a pity that the cavalry is good at destroying opponents in motion, and this kind of siege warfare is not what they are good at, just like now, even if the cannonballs of the 100 red-coated cannons captured in the Northern Ming Dynasty are exhausted, they still haven't captured the city of Sanbulachuan, and at this moment, looking at the battered city not far away, there is only Wangyang sighing.

"Report, Lord Chief, Yili sent Alipu, the prime minister of the Li Kingdom, personally led a total of 150,000 cavalry infantry from Yiji Nai City to the direction of our department." The scout junior half-knelt in front of him, reporting on the battle situation in the rear.

"Arip is here, haha, okay. With them, it will no longer be difficult to capture Sanbula Chuan City in the future, hahaha. After hearing the words first, I was naturally overjoyed, and I really fell asleep and came to the pillow.

At the same time, in the Yang Mansion of Shicheng, Yang Chendong also received a message from the scouts in front, which stated that Alipu led 150,000 troops straight to the Shajing area, and the intention was not clear.

Standing in front of the sand table, Yang Chendong stood for a long time, not knowing the essentials. He was thinking about a question, who did the army of Yili General come at this time?

If it was for the Northern Ming army, then why didn't you come with it first, but only after the 30,000 cavalry of the vanguard army suffered a loss? Is it possible that he wants to get revenge on himself? Does he really have the guts to do that?

The so-called ignorant are not guilty. The strength of the five-star army is known to the nearby grassland tribes, so the five-star army has long become an existence that no one dares to mess with here. However, due to the distance, Yili Jiangli did not know the reality of the Five-Star Army, and if they did not understand, it was unknown whether they might really do something stupid.

Before this question was completely thought out, Wang Shan, the personal telegrapher, sent another telegram from the Beiming Security Bureau, which explained in detail what happened in the Beiming court, as well as the matter of Xu Youzhen, the secretary of the Criminal Department, asking for orders to come to Shicheng to persuade him to supply grain and grass to Sanbula Sichuan City.

"Interesting." Looking at this telegram, a meaningful smile flashed in the corner of Yang Chendong's eyes. He had a feeling that Xu Youzhen must have given him some good news this time, otherwise, he would not make his own decisions without asking for advice on such a major event like sending troops.

It's just that now Beiming already owes himself 11 million taels of silver, is there any benefit to himself?

Yang Chendong is not an immortal, and Xu Youzhen did not leak the news that he was going to be crowned king in advance, so of course he couldn't guess it. Xu Youzhen, who carried the holy decree, rode a fast horse day and night since he left the Beijing Division of the Northern Ming Dynasty. Now that the military situation at the front is urgent, there is really no delay.

The important thing is that if the Five-Star Army can't provide grain and grass to Sanbula Chuan City in time, once it is breached, all his calculations will be in vain, and the so-called matter of sealing the king will also come to naught, in that case, his so-called great achievements will also disappear without a trace.

I didn't want to see such a result, so I forced Xu Youzhen, who came all the way, to change horses and not people, and blindly hurried, which originally took nearly a month to travel to the horse, and it took thirteen days to get out of Talu City and come to the foot of the city.

Xu Youzhen is the secretary of the Criminal Department of the Northern Ming Dynasty, a second-grade civil official, and without an auxiliary minister, he can be regarded as a very human minister. In order to show respect, Yang Chendong took the initiative to go out of the city to greet him, and thousands of cavalry stood on both sides, putting on such a grand posture, which moved Xu Youzhen, who had just arrived here, was also shocked at the same time.

As the secretary of the criminal department, he has tens of thousands of arrests. Among them, there are also some capable people with extraordinary means, and there are even some people who have created a lot of fame, and they often stop there with a murderous aura, which can make the whole body tremble in the criminal law, and they will open their mouths to confess their guilt before they are punished.

From this aspect alone, Xu Youzhen can be regarded as having seen some people in the world, at least the general formation can't scare him, and even in his eyes, the murderous aura of a murderer is just that, he is used to it. And it wasn't until now that he looked at the cavalry that appeared in front of him, and he didn't know what it meant to be small, and what it meant to be strong in the strong.
