Chapter 629: Painting Cakes

In the next two days, Wang Xian's energy was focused on accompanying his wife and daughter, which was really a whole-body solution and served the two princesses, one big and one young. has to take into account the emotions of Lingxiao, a sister who doesn't grow up.

Mo Wen and Cheng Zheng were forced to do so, and one of them was in the Borzigit Department and the other was in the Warat Department. Wang Xian's distribution makes sense, Mo Wen is deep and strategic, and can suppress the self-confident generals of Du Hai, Cheng Zheng's ability is relatively weak, but now the Wara Department is like a lost dog, and the leader has been killed again, it is the time to be at the mercy, so there is no way to go wrong.

Two days later, Shuai Hui arrived with a thousand Datong soldiers and horses, and the next day, the Tatar army, which had been watching from a distance, also arrived and camped fifteen miles to the north.

Only then did Wang Xian raise the account.

"E, the Tatars have arrived in front of us, when will the Celestial Empire army arrive?" Du Hai and the others looked anxious, although what they said was powerful, but when the Tatar soldiers were in their prime, they really didn't have the courage to fight them to the death.

"The vanguard has arrived, and the follow-up troops should be soon." Wang Xian said lightly.

"A few days ago, the march was blocked by heavy rain, and the path was muddy after the rain stopped, so the army could not arrive as scheduled," Shuai Hui knelt down on one knee and said, "Please punish your lordship." ”

"Forget it, there are unforeseen circumstances, and no one expected that the Tatars would come so quickly." Wang Xian shook his head generously, turned to the Mongolian generals and said, "Everyone, within two or three days at most, the army will arrive, and in these two or three days, you can only rely on everyone to hold on." ”

The Mongol generals looked at each other, they did not have the courage to fight to the death with the Tatars, but it should not be a big problem if it only dragged on for two or three days. Thinking of this, the generals finally burst out of courage and said:

"No problem! We're not clay either! ”

"That's it, I don't know who wins and who loses when it really fights!"

"If they want to eat us, they'll have to burst their teeth!"

"Ha Lu Ha Hao," Wang Xian stood up, and said with a smile: "This is the Mongolian warrior in my impression, don't you often say a word, lose your courage and determination, and are not worthy of a foothold on the grassland?" ”

When the Mongolian generals heard this, they were ashamed and said, "E, we really shouldn't have done it before. ”

"Okay, don't mention the things of the past, from now on, shake up your spirits, encourage your sons, and let the Tatars be underestimated tomorrow!" Wang Xian stepped down from his seat, patted them on the shoulders one by one, and encouraged loudly: "Don't worry, I will remember your performance, at this time of crisis, those who can turn the tide are the great heroes of Borzigit and Waratbu, and the future Hetao grassland will be your pasture!" ”

One of the rewards implied by Wang Xian's words is actually ambiguous, at least Shuai Hui and these Han people will not take it seriously, but Du Hai and other Mongolian men are very honest, and they are all excited when they hear it.

"One more thing." Wang Xian smiled and said, "I was going to announce it later, but it doesn't hurt to tell you now." ”

"Tell me!" As soon as the generals heard it, they knew that it was a good thing, and the big tent, which was originally a mess, immediately fell and could be heard.

"I have agreed with Baoyin Beji that we will mobilize 300,000 Han Chinese to build two cities in Tumochuan and Kundulun, and then the grasslands will still be at your mercy and grazing, but you will no longer have to worry about no iron pots, no tea bricks, no cloth, no salt and sugar. Besides, you will live as a nobleman, without famine, without fear of frost, without fear of strong enemies, and without fear of your offspring. All of this will be brought to you by both cities! ”

"Whew......" The Mongolian leaders were just a little excited just now, and when they heard this, they were all in their blood and couldn't help themselves. It is difficult for Shuai Hui and other Han people to understand, isn't it just two cities, what are these Mongols excited about?

This is called a full man who does not know that a hungry man is hungry. Shuai Hui They are Han people, accustomed to the prosperous city and material life, but they don't know that the Mongols were driven out of the Central Plains by Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty 60 years ago, and were chased and killed by Xu Da, Chang Yuchun, Lan Yu and other generals, and even the most resounding capital was also destroyed, the Mongols completely bid farewell to urban civilization and returned to the nomadic state of their ancestors.

Mongolians, who have become accustomed to city life, have returned to the state of having to produce everything they need, and they feel that life is so hard. They don't know anything but grazing, they can't grow grain or vegetables, they can only eat meat and drink milk. But without a city, there is no way to buy tea bricks that can relieve greasy, which makes them miserable. It's good to say that it's a big deal to be dressed in animal skin, but there is no needle and thread to sew clothes, and the result of replacing it with horsehair and animal bones always looks like a savage's costume.

What's even more tragic is that there is no iron pot for boiling water for cooking, only a pot can be used by several families, if it is accidentally broken, there is no place to make up for it, so you can only use horse skin instead of an iron pot to boil water and meat, and there is no salt...... Not to mention that children and animals are sick and can't find a doctor; There is no place to sell the extra cattle and sheep, and in order to save feed in winter, they can only kill things, which is really miserable......

In short, thousands of tragedies converge into one sentence, that is, there is an extreme shortage of materials and an extremely miserable life. It is said that they are extremely vicious, so they can only rob it, but they have caught up with the two generations of emperors of Hongwu and Yongle, and they will burn high incense if they don't beat them, how dare they rob the Ming Dynasty? can only honestly ask the Ming to do business with them, and the Ming Dynasty closed the mutual market, did not allow border trade, and only allowed the Mongolian prince sealed by the imperial court to enter Beijing to see the court, and he could bring goods to pay tribute. But that's just a drop in the bucket, and they can't even satisfy their own tribes, let alone those who can't pay tribute.

For the Mongols, if they could have a city of their own, they could trade freely and live in exchange for what they needed...... It's just a picture that I can't even think of.

So as soon as Wang Xian proposed this plan for two cities, the tent was quiet for a long time.

"What, what do you guys think?" Wang Xian couldn't let them stay, so he had to cough and break the silence.

It didn't matter, it was like a spark thrown into an oil tank, and it immediately detonated the mood of the Mongols, who screamed and sang and danced, and rushed to Wang Xian, lifted him high, and threw him into the sky...... Luckily, I caught it again. Shuai Hui and the others were dumbfounded.

This is not the end, the small tent can no longer contain their happiness, the Duhai people rushed out of the tent again, announced the great news to the subordinates, the next moment, the whole camp was boiling, men and women slaughtered cattle and sheep and wine, actually to have a grand celebration banquet.

"I'll go, as for being so happy? At the moment of the great enemy, he is going to have a bonfire. Shuai Hui and Cheng Zheng opened their mouths wide.

"The joy of Zifei fish and Anzhi fish?" Mo Wen smiled faintly: "It's okay to carnival, at least the morale has finally reversed." ”

"yes, I'm scared." Wang Xian sighed and said: "Just the strength of their previous death, really pulled to the battlefield, and they are not about to collapse at the first touch?" ”

"But don't be overjoyed, what if the Tatars come to steal the camp tonight?" Cheng Zheng said worriedly.

"Ha Luha, no." Wang Xian shook his head and smiled: "What kind of Abu, if it were a reckless person, he wouldn't wait until now to press the border." After a pause, he explained: "After all, Baoyin is the princess of Heshun who was enshrined by the emperor, and there is our Ming army here. That Abu's father, Arutai, was only cleaned up by the emperor a few years ago, and he cried his father and mother, don't look at the fact that he is showing off his power like a grassland overlord now. But they know their own affairs, they are the wild dogs who follow the lion to pick up cheap, and although there are only a thousand of us, they dare not touch a single hair of us! ”

"Yes." The generals believed this, and they were angry at the pride of the people of a big country, and they knew that if they had three longs and two shorts, His Majesty the Ming Emperor would definitely raise a large army to conquer the grassland and kill Arutai to the ground. Although those who commit me are strong, they will be punished from afar, and this is what Wang Xian really relies on! He is not fighting alone, there is a powerful Ming behind him!

"But for the sake of prudence, the soldiers still have to work hard tonight, and they all spread out to be vigilant." Wang Xian was not carried away, "At this time, we will be sober, so we can only stand guard for them." ”

"Okay." The morale of the generals has also risen, and there is really a heroic feeling of entering the flock and taking and taking......

When all the generals were gone, Wang Xian only left Mo Wen, and his domineering spirit was all gone, and his face was replaced by worry.

"Are the military advisors worried that it will be easy for the enemy to retreat from the enemy?" Mo Wen asked softly.

"Worthy of being my bosom friend." Wang Xian smiled approvingly: "Yes, as long as we are here, even if Arutai is in person, the Tartars will not dare to act rashly, but they know that they are coming, but they do not retreat but advance, which makes me think about it very much." ”

"Actually, it's easy to understand," Mo asked: "The steppe people are wolves, and the Arutai father and son have more effectively confirmed this, that Abu only followed the Vara for thousands of miles, and expelled the Borzigit people to Kundulun, just as the wolf followed its prey, forced it into a corner, and only launched an attack when it collapsed, so that the method of warfare that can obtain the greatest victory at the lowest cost is the style of the wolf." ”

"As a result, when it was time to harvest delicious food, we intervened sideways and disrupted their wishful thinking." Wang Xian said with a smile: "They don't dare to annoy Daming, but the wolf is greedy, but they are not willing to waste their efforts and return empty-handed, so they bluff and advance instead of retreating?" ”

"That's right," Mo asked, clasping his palms, "they are just bluffing, to see if they can scare us into chaos, and it is best for us to collapse without a fight, no matter how bad it is, we have to make some cheap to be worth the return fare." ”

"Well, that's good." Wang Xian nodded and said, "But to let them retreat, in addition to wielding a stick, they also need a few sweet dates." ”

"It's simple," Mo Wen smiled, "The military advisor can just reward the two of them." ”

"Hahaha." Wang Xian laughed loudly and said, "You guy, wilted and wilted!" ”
