The meadow was a mess, with grass clippings and dirt mixed with flesh and blood, penetrating deep into the land, staining the meadow swamp black and red. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The cruelty of the punishment of the horse, the three Khalkha prisoners only watched from the sidelines, they all knelt on the ground, desperately screaming for mercy, from Taiji to Xiaobing, at this moment, they were equal, and the image was the same.

At the same time that Omubu saw the relief of hatred on the stage, his face was the same pale, and several lamas beside him just muttered Buddha.

When Wang Dou looked at him, Taiji, the assistant director of the Khalkha Tu Xie Tu Ministry, wailed, he struggled forward desperately, and kowtowed vigorously to Wang Dou: "Please spare your life, the slave will definitely go back to report to the Khan King, so that my Tu Xie Tu Department will abandon the darkness and turn to the light, and be loyal to the general and the Ming Dynasty for the rest of my life." ”

He cried desperately, and the Chechen Department, several Tabu Nang, Guan Qi Zhangjing and other leaders of the Zasaktu Department were not to be outdone, and they also marched on their knees, crying loudly.

They only hope that Wang Dou will spare his life, the more they reach their status, enjoy the glory and wealth, and the children are used to wealth, the more they don't want to die, what is the slave and the knees, and the most important thing is to save a life.

They struggled and cried, but some of the middle and low-level officers and soldiers were silent, and when they looked at these leaders, their eyes were full of disappointment.

The Mongol soldiers of the new camp guarding the next side were also full of disdain, in their opinion, it didn't matter if the soldiers cried and begged for mercy, the tribal leaders should rather die than give in, but the fact surprised them.

Many people have a strange feeling in their hearts, as if these leaders are not like the reincarnation of the gods they proclaim. It's on top.

Wang Dou snorted coldly in his heart, these grassland Hu'er just remember to eat or not, when Ming Taizu, Ming Chengzu, Lan Yu and others conquered Saibei, the various ministries were also scrambling to be attached, and at the end of the Ming Dynasty, the imperial court was gentle and appeased, and a lot of grain and silver money were scattered, but in exchange for betrayal.

Finally. He spoke. said: "In fact, after Ben Hou conquered Mo Nan this time and punished Gu Luge and other heinous crimes, he has no ambition for Mo Bei. After all, it is north of Yin Mountain. It's all desert Gobi. Hermes-Epitek is not allowed to farm, so what is the use of it? Not only that, Ben Hou also hopes to make friends with the Mobei tribes. After all, Han and Mongolia have their own strengths and weaknesses, and they may not be unable to communicate with each other and coexist peacefully. Emperor Taizu Gao once said, Huayi is inseparable, although the surname is different, the word is the same, Benhou also has this attitude, the Han and Mongolian families. ”

It's like taking a cold shower on a hot day, eating a popsicle on dog days, Taiji and others, the assistant director of the Tuxie Tubu Department, were stunned at first, and then overjoyed, the meaning of the Yongning Marquis of the Ming Kingdom, not only to let them go, but also to trade with the ministries in the future? This is what everyone dreams of.

Wang Dou's words also convinced them, indeed, few Han armies in previous dynasties directly crossed Monan, and even if there were, it was only a nominal rule, isn't it just a tribute, and some horses, sheep, and cattle are paid every year, what is this? Earlier, they didn't call their vassals to the Qing Kingdom, but now they just change their objects, and who are they different from?

But before they could speak, Wang Dou said again: "But ......"

There was a cold look in his eyes, and he said: "Nai Er, he and others are abusive, and there is no punishment, how can Wang stand in the world?" In the world, how can there be such a cheap thing? So some of you, you must die! As the price of aiding and abetting! ”

His gaze slowly swept over Taiji and the others, the assistant director of the Tuxie Tubu, and said: "Of course, I am very fair, although some of you are going to die, but you are allowed to discuss it yourself, elect it, and order which people to come out as the target of punishment, the principle is to draw one out of three." ”

With that, he leaned back comfortably in his tiger skin chair.

The prisoners of the three Khalkha departments below, some of whom knew Chinese, some of whom did not, Zeng Zhiyi, as the commander of the new attached battalion, was naturally familiar with Mongolian, so he translated Wang Dou's words one by one as a general.

The Khalkha people below looked at each other, Wang Dou's words, let their hearts go up and down like fifteen buckets, one will rise to the clouds, and the other will fall to the ground, if they have a choice, of course they don't want to die, just let who come out and die?

They looked at each other, and countless eye contacts, as if they were all in agreement, and Taiji, the assistant director of the Tushetu Division, retreated to the side, leaving behind about three hundreds of people in the middle, among these people, either stubborn people from various departments, or those who fought bravely, received a lot of rewards on weekdays, and were envied by others.

These people are usually calling for wind and rain in various ministries, but at this time they have become a vulnerable group and have been elected to die.

To the surprise of everyone in the Jingbian Army, many leaders such as Taiji, the assistant director of the Tuxie Tubu Department, were not elected, obviously, the people of the three departments also understood that they had to rely on these leaders to live after they went back, and after today's encounter, they would become confidants just around the corner.

Among those people in the middle, there was also a Guan Qi Zhang Jing of the Tu Xie Tu Department, he looked at the assistant Taiji, the heads of the three departments, and looked at the people around him, etc., he was stunned for a while, and looked up to the sky and laughed miserably: "I can't imagine that my Wuliang has fought for the tribe for half a life, but today I ended up like this, and I was betrayed by my own clan, hate, hate!" ”

He rushed to the stage violently, but the person was tied up, his movements were inflexible, and he was quickly grabbed by several Mongolian soldiers from the new attached battalion beside him, and then beat him with a whip on his head and face, he screamed loudly, and just yelled at Wang Dou: "Han dog, you take my land, occupy my Mongolian homeland, Genghis Khan has a spirit in the sky, and he will be killed by iron horses!" ”

The hundreds of Khalkha prisoners who were elected knew that they could not be spared, and they were also heartbroken, and they all scolded one by one, hating Wang Dou for seizing the land of Monan, and killing them.

Wang Dou listened with a smile, thinking that the Chinese language was still broad and profound, and hundreds of Khalkhamon people scolded for a long time, but they couldn't scold any tricks, and they just said a few words over and over again.

The generals of the Jingbian Army on the stage, as well as Wang Puren and others, laughed loudly, and praised Qin Yi and laughed, and said: "Joke, the land of Monan, when did it become yours?" Huo Hu rode the wolf Juxu, and when the Tang Dynasty set up the Anbei Protectorate, Genghis Khan didn't know where he was? ”

Seeing that the Guan Qizhang Jingwu of the Tu Xie Tu Department was unyielding, Wang Dou stood up with a smile, and he said, "Actually." There is really no need to fight for these historical issues, if you talk about the original ownership of the grassland, maybe only the Huns have this qualification, but they have been beaten by the Han army and fled westward for thousands of miles, and they don't know if there are any relics left in the world. ”

"After that, what Xianbei, Rouran, Turkic, Khitan, Jurchen, and Mongol were all ranked after the Han time, and the current land of the Mongols was also snatched from the Jurchens, and then the Jurchens were snatched from the Khitans. Grab and grab. In fact, they are all respected. The most important thing now is that my king wants this land, so he will raise troops to take it, do you have any objections? ”

On the stage, all the generals of the Jingbian Army showed proud expressions. The general said it well. Everything is empty. If you can fight it down, this land is your own, and there are tens of thousands of Jingbian soldiers in the audience. They laughed out loud and were proud of their feats.

Taiji, the assistant of the Tuxie Tubu, was anxious, thinking that this Wulianghe would die if he died, and he was so verbose, he couldn't help but shout: "Wulianghe, you can go in peace, you die for the tribe, I, the Khan and others, will definitely take good care of your wife, children and family, you ......"

Suddenly, the Wu Lianghe broke free of the drag of several new appendages, and pounced on the assistant Taiji, and bit him wildly, and when the new recruits tore the two apart, the assistant Taiji's body had been bitten bloody, and he screamed loudly.

Then this Wu Lianghe glared angrily at Wang Douren and the others on the stage, still scolding non-stop.

Wang Dou praised: "True warriors! ”

Han Chao said on the side: "There are cowards and warriors among the Han people, and the same is true of the Hu people on the grassland. ”

Wang Dou said lightly: "A warrior should have a noble death method of a warrior, and he can't bury his identity, in order to show his high respect for this person, he will perform the punishment of horse death, and the rest will be beheaded." ”

Soon, Wu Lianghe, who was scolding angrily, was put on a sack by the head, and then was trampled into meat by a chaotic horse in the scream.

After dealing with the affairs of the three Khalkha departments, Wang Dou asked people to loosen the ties of Taiji, the assistant director of the Tuxie Tu Ministry, and invited him to come to the stage and rewarded him with a chair, but there was no tiger skin chair.

This Tai Ji is grateful, and kowtows again and again to thank him, although Wang Dou conditions come up, if they want to return to Mobei, they still need the tribal family to redeem their bodies, according to the status and value, the cattle, sheep and horses redeemed by each person are not the same, but this Tai Ji can escape with his life, and he is already satisfied.

He thought that the Khan and his family would definitely redeem themselves, and as for whether the remaining soldiers had the ability to redeem themselves, and whether the tribe would redeem them, it was not for him to consider.

……

Next, under the watchful eyes of the leaders of the south and north of the desert, Wang Dou carried out a grand reward ceremony for the officers and soldiers of the Jingbian Army, and the military merits were counted, but each battalion selected ten soldiers and officers who performed well and fought bravely to be rewarded, and Wang Dou personally rewarded them with silver taels and meritorious service.

Subsequently, there is also a proof of meritorious medals, the material ranges from copper to gold, under the attention of the public, this is a rare glory, everyone on the stage is very excited, and the army under the stage is also envious.

In addition to glory, some of these soldiers are not long after joining the first-class army, and they are still happy to receive the silver two rewards, but the old first-class soldiers pay more attention to meritorious rewards and the honor of receiving meritorious medals.

Yang Dongmin, the personal general of Xu Zucheng, the former boss of Wang Dou, and Li Zhongguo, the son of Li Shouqin, the ambassador of the Internal Affairs Section of the Intelligence Department, were also rewarded for their outstanding performance in the battle.

In the limelight, Yang Dongmin strode to the stage, Wang Dou looked at him with a smile, remembering that when the two first met, it was still the conflict between Wansheng and Midian, so many years have passed, Yang Dongmin has also been reborn and become a heroic and solemn qualified soldier of the Jingbian Army.

The silver merit medal held on a tray, loaded with one hundred taels of silver, and engraved with one hundred meritorious deeds, exquisite style, thick and heavy, handed over to Yang Dongmin, Wang Dou smiled and said: "Brother Yang, congratulations, this is what you deserve!" ”

Yang Dongmin choked up and said, "Thank you, General!" ”

He took it with both hands and shouted: "Loyalty, dedication, honor!" ”

Li Guangheng watched happily, Yang Dongmin received the award, which was also his honor.

The military newspaper and Times interviewers in the audience were looking at it with all their might, while desperately writing books, and rewarding soldiers on the battlefield, what an exciting topic this is, presumably after going back, this issue of the newspaper can sell like crazy.

When they worked hard to write, they also used pencils and cardboard, which is not surprising, as early as the time of Emperor Ming of the Han Dynasty. There is a record of Cao Bao's bed with a pencil, and the line is recited and read, and sometimes the pencil is used, which is more convenient than the brush.

Of course, when they wrote a special book, they also used the Spring and Autumn penmanship for the previous things, although Wang Dou didn't mind, but they consciously maintained the image of the general and the Jingbian Army, besides. The newspaper also has an editor.

and fifty taels of silver. There are also fifty bronze medals of meritorious service in the hands of Li Zhongguo, looking at this tiger-headed young man, Wang Dou smiled and said: "Your father looks gloomy and compassionate, but you are completely different." Why is there such a big difference between your father and son? ”

Everyone on stage laughed. Li Zhongguo just opened his mouth and smirked.

In the Loyalty Camp under the stage. Xu Lu and Liu Wei watched from afar, and they couldn't be restrained. did not enter the cavalry battalion, but many of his subordinates have been transferred, and then a steady stream of new old troops entered the Zhongyi battalion and became their subordinates, which can be described as iron-clad battalion soldiers.

Looking at Wang Dou on the stage, Wen Fangliang and others, the status of the people in the same castle back then was far from each other, but they no longer had any thoughts, after all, the distance between the two sides was getting bigger and bigger, and they were not people of the same level for a long time, and they only hated that they didn't stick to it back then, and they hated it for thousands of years if they made a mistake.

Zhang Wenru, the former garrison of Sihai Yebao, also stayed in the Zhongyi camp, and he couldn't be restrained, but felt that he was happier in this camp, but Zhang Luozi watched one of his subordinates come to the stage to receive awards, and he still cracked his mouth and laughed.

Tumut Waste Khan Omubu looked at all this and thought it was very interesting, and Taiji, the assistant director of the Khalkha Tushetu Ministry, was solemn in his heart.

He pondered, this ceremony carried out by the Marquis of Yongning of the Ming Kingdom obviously greatly boosted the morale of the army, no wonder the Jingbian army was brave, it seems that Mo Nan will definitely be Wang Dou's world in the future, or it is better to persuade King Khan to make friends with Wang Dou.

Wang Pu saw the hot eyes of his subordinates, obviously hoping for such a reward and honor, and he secretly remembered in his heart that after he went back, he should also engage in this kind of ceremony.

Among the Mongols in the new attached camp, Tabu Nang and Galed stood nervously, looking at the big banner rolling on the high platform of the Chinese army, and the array of soldiers under the stage was also majestic and majestic, they watched batches of people come to the stage to receive rewards, and after the reward, tens of thousands of soldiers in the audience were shouting might, and the two of them were excited and looking forward to it, and they only felt that their hearts were about to be raised to their throats.

Finally, it was their turn to be in this camp, and in the eyes of everyone, the two of them and the remaining eight people came out in a crowd, and they were greeted by an overwhelming roar of might, as well as the roar of thousands of newly attached Mongolian troops, both of them were flushed, and they felt that they were so glorious, that they did not need a reward, and they were just as satisfied.

Ten people went up to the high platform, all with their heads held high, excited and upright, Wang Dou called their names one by one, Zeng Zhiyi and made an interpreter on the side, Galed only felt that the general's eyes were as deep as the sea, he was calm, and he was quite clever, he said loudly: "Fight for the general, don't dare to ask for a reward." ”

Wang Dou said: "My Jingbian army will be rewarded for meritorious service!" ”

He turned his gaze on Tabu Nang and Galed a few times, and said: "Emperor Chengzu once said, Yi into China is China, within the cover, regardless of Huayi, but there are talents, use them and do not give up, you are all heroes of the new attached camp, I will hope that you will still be brave, just like the generals of Mangui and Ma Gui, fight to the death for the country, and leave a name in history!" ”

Ten new Tartar troops shouted loudly in Chinese or Mongolian: "May I die for the general!" ”

Wang Dou issued rewards one by one, and Tabu Sang was the most courageous, with a total of nine levels of beheading, a meritorious medal of one hundred meritorious services, and one hundred taels of silver.

In particular, their whole family has changed from temporary residence to naturalization, directly skipping Yi, and can enter and exit freely in Xuanfu Town in the future, if they have a sense of identity with Han culture, they can also give Han surnames in the future, give Han names, and become Han nationality.

Looking at the meritorious plaque in his hand, Tabu Nang trembled with excitement, you must know that the meritorious service in the Jingbian army is precious, and a little meritorious service value can be exchanged for one acre of fertile land, or five acres of grassland, no, five hundred acres of grassland will be in hand, and you can build a big pasture in the future.

Not to mention him, the Mongolian soldiers in the new attached battalion below were all red-eyed, and even Qian Zong Leliang's eyes were hot.

Gallard also received fifty taels of silver, and the merit was worth fifty points, and after the ten of them stepped down, the example of the special Tabu Bag would greatly arouse the determination of the soldiers of the new attached battalion to fight on the battlefield.

At the end of the grand reward ceremony, the army rejoiced, and Wang Dou turned his head to Tumut Khan Omubu, who was looking at it with relish, and said, "Omubu. ”

Ou Mubu was abused by Gu Luge and others, and his reaction was already a little sluggish, and he was stunned for a while before he reacted, and hurriedly said: "Xiao Wang is ......."

Wang Dou looked at him and said: "In the fifth year of Longqing, Da Ming Ce named Altan Khan as the king of Shunyi, and then the Han and Mongolia reconciled, and when Mrs. Yipin Zhongshun took the throne, she tried to eliminate public opinion several times, so that the Han and Mongolia sides ceased to strike and fight, so as to avoid the spread of war and the misery of the people. This merit and virtue, I Daming keep in mind, you were taken captive by the slave chieftains to Liaodong, this Hou also feels the same way, will write to the court, restore your Shunyi King title......"

Wang Dou arched his hand in the direction of Jingshi and continued: "Not only that, but among the Tumut descendants, you will also be drawn with a population of 5,000 and an escort with no more than 1,000 people. ”

Omu Buxi descended from the sky, he wept bitterly, knelt down and kowtowed to Wang Dou again and again: "The general is like the little king's parents, and the little king will be loyal to the general and the Ming Dynasty for generations!" ”

Wang Dou said: "Please get up." ”

He walked to the edge of the stage, pressed his sword in one hand, and slowly looked at the land outside the Saiwai, from south to north, from east to west, his eyes were as deep as the sea.

……

On September 16, the fifteenth year of Chongzhen, Wang Dou led the army to return to naturalization, on the way, he listened to the advice of Qin Yi of Zanhua, followed the example of Huo Hu, rode Huo to get sick, and held a grand ceremony to worship the heavens and the earth in Daqingshan.

At the same time, regarding the good news of this battle, Wang Dou ordered it to be sent to Beijing as soon as possible, and the public opinion of the Xuanfu should also be moved.

The generals are all elated, this expedition to the outside of the Saiwai, although not as famous as Huo Hussar, but also since the middle of the Ming Dynasty great merit, the people who are fortunate to participate in this battle, all of them can leave their names in history.

It was only not long after that a piece of information from the Central Plains destroyed the good mood of Wang Dou and others. (To be continued.) )
