Zhang Yansheng suddenly woke up, these are actually experience, in the first few miles, the northern captives hit the horses and chased, there is still a distance difference, and they can't catch up for a while, but because of the lack of horsepower on their side, more than five or six miles will be chased to a very close distance, and when it comes to about ten miles, most of these cavalry will be chased by the northern captives, one by one shot to the ground, with a knife to cut off the head, no one will be able to escape. The vast grassland www.biquge.info is a beautiful scenery, but it is also a sand trap, as far as the eye can see, there is nowhere to hide, unless you happen to meet the rescue of your own side, otherwise you will only be chased and killed.

And there are thousands of northern captives in front of him, and it is estimated that even if the marching division knows about the enemy's attack, the first reaction should be to close the fort and hold on, and then notify the main force stationed in the area of Kaiping Zuotun to come and hold these northern captives, and wait for the large army to gather before organizing the encirclement and fighting a beautiful counterattack.

Zhang Yansheng felt most strange was why the Beiyu suddenly became bolder, they actually dared to take the initiative to attack the territory of the Shang Tuan Army, Karaqin could mobilize a total of 20,000 or 30,000 Dingkou, and with this amount of manpower, the 3,000 people of the Lancer Regiment could be swept away.

The Beiyu became more and more persecuted, and Lu Si said anxiously: "You can't get out of it, there is a hill over there, the terrain is relatively steep, we defend according to the mountain, use the terrain and firearms to defend, the military division hears the sound of battle, as long as we organize a battalion of cavalry, we can be rescued." Even if there is no help for a while, we will hold out for a day or two at most, and the army will come, and there is no way to do anything about the northern captives. ”

"That's right." At this time, Zhang Yansheng was already very convinced by his old and stable and experienced sergeant major, and he secretly thought: Lu is worthy of being born in the Lancer Regiment, and he is indeed a rare elite pawn!

Everyone rode their horses and galloped, and after a while they went up the hill of Lu Sizhi, there was a trail that went straight up the mountain, there were shrubs on both sides, and the other three sides of the mountain were very steep, and the height was not very high, only three or four zhang high, and the mountain was full of trees, and everyone saw that some mulberries were growing very well, and the north was still far away, so they picked them off and chewed them to quench their thirst.

Lu Si also picked a bunch and gave half to Zhang Yansheng, and said: "I also want to ask the soldiers to cut down some thick branches, sharpen their heads, dig pits and erect logs, and a path that only a horse can climb up. ”

Zhang Yansheng thought so and immediately ordered the soldiers to cut down wood to build a fence.

Lu Si began to taste the mulberries, and he said: "It's so sweet, if it was in my hometown in Lingqiu, this tree would have been plucked by children." ”

Lu Si looked around again and sighed: "Lingqiu is full of mountains, such hills are too common, in the summer when the heat is hot, a group of our children climbed the mountains to look for wild dates, wild apricots, mulberries, and when they are full, they lie in the shade to rest, such a day seems to be just yesterday." ”

Deputy Squadron Leader Yan Ximing answered: "We are in our prime, in order for our children and grandchildren not to be bullied by the ugly things in front of us, even if we give up this body and bones, it is nothing, let alone the rest." ”

Lu Si nodded lightly, he knew that Yan Ximing was right, his momentary mood swings were unreasonable, and the officers who were born on the grassland were generally more determined, after all, the Han people in the mainland did not have a deep understanding of the Beiyu, but Lu Si was more hostile to the gentry who oppressed his family, and the Beiyu was still too far away for him.

A large number of northern captives have been flying over, in the high place, the soldiers only to see that the number of northern captives is far beyond imagination, a large number of northern captives like a group of ants like a group of black pressure rushed over, not only people and horses, but also a large number of herds, cattle and sheep, and groups of horses, riding on horses in front of the strong herdsmen and soldiers, in the middle of the herds and women and children, old and weak, in the telescope can clearly be seen, there are many children and women on the horses, some under the age of five can not ride horses, It was held in the arms of the old man and the woman, and rode slowly on his horse.

After the herds and the old and weak of the brigade, there were some strong herdsmen and armor soldiers.

Zhang Yansheng and the others were dumbfounded, and after half a ring, Zhang Yansheng said: "I grew up near Qingcheng since I was a child, and it's really the first time I've seen Beiyu send troops out like this. ”

Yan Ximing also shook his head and said, "I've also been in the grassland for more than ten years, and I've never seen anything like this." ”

Lu Si bit his lip and was silent, at this time, there were already hundreds of Beiyu riding horses to the foot of the mountain, Lu Si said: "I'll go down and see what Beilu has to say." ”

Everyone didn't persuade him, in terms of skill, Lu Si was trained in the lancer regiment, in terms of alertness and courage, can someone who can escape from the army of more than 100,000 northern captives, how bad?

Everyone watched as Lu Si climbed down the mountain, past fence obstacles and obstructive bushes, and then walked to the foot of the mountain and shouted to the Beiyu who rushed over.

Beiyu really didn't shoot an arrow, and he talked to Lu Si every word.

The crowd on the mountain couldn't really hear it, and they were anxious one by one.

After a while, Lu Si beckoned to the mountain, and obviously pointed at Zhang Yansheng.

Zhang Yansheng turned his heart to Yan Ximing, handed over the command to Yan Ximing, and went down the mountain himself.

"You've got it." Lu Si smiled and said to Zhang Yansheng: "This hunting, the prey caught is amazing, this time, we are really lucky." ”

"What the hell is going on?"

Lu Si pointed to the groups of northern captives below, and said: "Baihong Dataiji and many Taiji are among them, Lin Dan Khan has moved west, and the soldiers have crossed the hometown of the five parts of Inner Khalkha, that is, the territory of Duoyanwei back then, and the Karaqin people are also single, as soon as they saw the Chahar soldiers, they began to run westward, they have long been prepared, and they have been shrinking Dingkou and pastures in the past few months. ”

"It can still be like this!" Zhang Yansheng was really shocked.

I'm afraid that there are not fifty or sixty thousand people in front of me, Karaqin is also called Ha Tingshen, who was originally a cowardly Xue army guarding the Khan's Mausoleum, and the number of Dingkou is not very large, and after integrating some small tribes of Duoyanwei, it can only reach such a point. The largest tribe in this year is the Chahar Department, and there are less than 100,000 people in Dingkou, and the entire tribe is afraid that it is less than 300,000.

"Most of the northern captives are coming back," Lu Si said with a smile: "Our meritorious service is a trivial matter, and the intention is very good, which shows that the nobles of the big tribe in the northern captives can also accept us, a good thing." ”

Zhang Yansheng first nodded, then looked to the east, and said in a deep voice: "We soldiers don't have to think so much, that's something that the military department senior management considers." Let's think about one thing, Lin Dan Khan and the Chahar people are finally coming, how many days have the wolf come, this wolf is coming, isn't it us who fights the wolf? ”

Lu Si said contemptuously: "Lin Dan Khan is also a ghost who doesn't know death, he has eaten enough of the imperial court in the east, and it is the same situation when he thinks of coming to the west, and there is no threat from the east, so he can calmly be his Mongolian Great Khan...... It's really lard! ”

The two young officers stopped talking, and the northern captives had already dismounted and sat cross-legged in place...... Lu Si had already warned them just now, don't move on, if the military department sends thousands of people and brings dozens of cannons over at once, then the fun will be great. Zhang Yansheng summoned a few people from the mountain and sent them out as Tang Ma, and the Tang Horses galloped towards the direction of Shangyi Fort and Xinghe East Fort in the west, where Liang Xing, the political officer of the Shangyi Marching Division, presumably the high-level of the Marching Division would make the most correct response at the first time.

……

"I've seen the second uncle."

Outside the Chongwen Gate of Jingshi, Shi Kefa hurried to the gate of the city, talked to the gatekeepers and soldiers guarding the gate for a long time, and then walked to a small convoy and greeted a middle-aged merchant wearing a flat-topped scarf and a five-blessing robe.

"Well, Kenyuki has worked hard."

Because he was his own uncle, Shi Congbin just nodded slightly, and said a polite word to Shi Kefa's name.

Although it is the Jinyi Wei family, the Shi family has lived in Henan Xiangfu for many generations, Shi Kefa's grandfather Shi Ying Yuanguan to Huangzhou Zhizhou, his father did not enter the Shi, at home to study the heirloom, the so-called Jinyi Wei hundred households, but also to ensure that the Shi family is not bullied by an official hat, the Shi family has changed from a military attache family to a scholarly family, and all the books at that time cited the same family, once someone in the family became an official, you can be led by the children of the family to do business, because it is difficult for the ordinary people to do business, and it is easy to do business with the identity of an official gentry.

Shi Congbin is the son of the Shi family's business, in the shopping mall has been more than 20 years, in Henan because it is a snake on the ground, it is relatively easy, and to the capital, whether it is delivery or goods, it is always relatively difficult, because the Beijing dragon and snake are mixed, a tiger backstage may be a noble or a red eunuch in the palace, and the Beijing tax customs is also famous for the black heart, Chongwen Gate is almost all official stores, are the palaces and noble eunuchs opened here, the background is slightly worse here to open a store, After a few days, there were no bones left.

In the past, Shi Congbin came to the capital to be trembling, most of them came with silver to do the goods, sometimes they did not come to the capital, they chose to go to Linqing, Kaifeng is also a big city with a population of one million, of course, it is also the commercial center of most of Henan, there is Shashi in the south, Linqing in the east, and Beijing in the north, the goods in Kaifeng are not only supplied to the city and the prefectures and counties of Henan, but there are commercial exchanges with these important places, and there are many goods in the capital, but the general businessmen only dare to take the goods, bring the goods into the city, and dare not do such a thing without a little background.

Since Shi Kefa worshiped under the Zuoguang Dou Gate, Shi Congbin brought some Henan specialties to sell when he bought the goods, there were many big businesses in the capital, he took ten cars and eight cars of goods, and he could sell them clean soon after entering the city, and then do the goods in the capital, and bring the original car back, so that the goods were brought over, at least the cost of the back and forth could be earned.

"How can you say so long today?" Shi Congbin couldn't help but be a little nervous when he saw that Shi Kefa's face was not very good-looking.

"Ugh." Shi Kefa's fair face was a little red, and there was obvious embarrassment. He looked at his uncle, and said with some dejection: "In the future, it is better for the second uncle to come empty-handed, the situation here is no longer something we can control." ”
