Demoness, Where Are You Fleeing To?

The valley was silent for more than twenty breaths before the herdsmen became agitated.

Most of them are suspicious and uneasy, and many are tempted, but they are hesitant.

They pushed each other, hoping someone else would take the lead.

The Mongol nobles who were tied to the pillars looked angry and cursed one after another.

Li Xuan didn't quite understand and wasn't interested.

Zhang Yue curiously asked Shang Hong next to him: "Bachelor of Shang University, do you know what they are talking about?"

"They are all scolding Fenyang County King, and their words are not pleasant." Shang Hong's eyes flashed with helplessness: "If they scold the County King, they will definitely be punished by the Immortal God, they will be punished by the Bodhisattvas, and they will become pigs and dogs in their next life...

He also said that the Great Khan of Wala was reorganizing his army, and that the Grand Master would definitely defeat the Jin Dynasty and avenge them, just like the Tumu Fort fourteen years ago. The 800,000 warriors in the grassland will kill us all.

They were also warning the Mongol herdsmen to think clearly about the consequences. After the Grand Master came back, they would definitely cut them into pieces. However, there are also people who want to surrender, saying that they are the noble descendants of Mongol people who have been passed down from generation to generation for thousands of years, and we should not treat them like this. "

Zhang Yue curled his lips, thinking that he shouldn't ask.

At this time, someone finally walked out from among the herdsmen. This was a short but very strong herdsman. He strode up to one of the Qianhu Nayan, picked up a dagger and stabbed the man. In the belly of Mengwu Qianhu.

Immediately there were Jin troops who had been ready nearby, handing twenty sheep calves, ten ewes, two cows, two horses, tents, confession documents, etc., into the hands of this man one by one.

Li Xuan's eyes also brightened with admiration: "This is a warrior! I personally reward him with ten ewes and ten taels of gold. Ask him again if he has a wife. If not, can he be single? Choose one of the Mengwu girls and Nayan's concubines to be your wife."

The interpreter quickly translated Li Xuan's words, and a look of surprise suddenly appeared on the face of the short and stocky herdsman.

With such an example, the crowd in the distance further became commotion.

As time went by, more and more people stood up and picked up daggers to stab the Mongol nobles and warriors.

Many people even had distorted faces, showing hatred.

In less than a moment, the tens and hundreds of households that used to stand tall on those pillars were riddled with holes and dripping with blood.

Although the magicians of the Jin army tried their best to treat them, more and more Mongol nobles died.

These herdsmen did not understand Lingchi's method, and they used all their strength with every blow, causing damage to the organs of these Mongol nobles and a large amount of blood loss.

However, even though these nobles died, the herdsmen still picked up daggers and stabbed them in an endless stream.

Due to the large number of people, the accounting rooms and documents prepared by the Jin army were gradually overwhelmed, and they could only be asked to line up in a long queue and deal with them one by one.

Li Xuan looked at it for a while and became no longer interested.

At the same time, he also discovered that many of the herdsmen were standing still and refused to move. The number was about 5,000.

Most of their faces were numb, and some even had sadness and anger in their eyes.

Li Xuan didn't care. He ordered Zhang Yue: "If these people are still unwilling to move within half a day, then leave them alone and let the Datong army behind them take them into custody. From now on, they will be used as coolies in the mining. I guess there will be a shortage of people."

"Understood!" After Zhang Yue responded, he sneered again: "If you don't give them the chance to be human, then they can continue to be dogs."

Shang Hong had no objection to this. He wished that the Oyu Tolgoi mine could have more manpower.

At this time, Li Xuan looked at Shang Hong with strange eyes: "After this Northern Expedition, I will ask the court to set up six capital commanders in Mengwu, and at the same time, set up two governors to rule Monan. Regarding the important military and political matters in Mobei, I wonder if Brother Shang is interested?"

He believes that Shang Hong still has some abilities, and it is rare that he is also proficient in Mongolian.

This person's position in the court is neither embarrassing nor embarrassing, so he might as well put him in a local place to accumulate some political achievements and re-enter the court.

Shang Hong frowned. His first reaction was that Li Xuan was excluding dissidents. Then he got a little excited, thinking that if the mine named 'Oyu Tolgoi' was developed, it would be enough to make him famous in history.

But Shang Hong thought carefully for a moment, and still said without comment: "This is a serious matter. Please allow me to think twice, Prince."

He was worried that once he was sent to another place, it would be difficult for him to return to the imperial court for the rest of his life.

With the current situation between the DPRK and China, he needs to be even more cautious. Shang Hong believed that no matter what, he had to hold on until the emperor took charge.

What's more, the establishment of "provinces" and "capital commanders" in Mengwu is absurd no matter how you look at it.

Li Xuan also understood that this was Shang Hong's polite refusal. He smiled and stopped forcing.

In the future, the northern and southern Mongolian provinces will be the places where it is easiest for the entire Jin Dynasty to achieve political achievements.

In the Mongol Plateau, the people were organized into households and the method of "silage" was implemented.

This is a grand event that has never happened before in the history of the dynasties, and it is also a political act of immeasurable merit.

Li Xuan will only give Shang Hong this chance. Since he missed it, he hopes that he will not regret it in the future.

※※※※

Li Xuan only stayed in Erlianhot for three days. When the 90,000 troops from Datong Town arrived, Li Xuan handed over the follow-up matters to the Datong General Soldier and the Datong Governor. He himself led the 160,000-foot cavalry under his command. , hurriedly returned to Saihan Mountain.

On the way back, Li Xuan received the battle report from the north.

Fan Guang, the commander-in-chief of the Xuanfu, successfully crossed the desert one day ago, defeated 30,000 Tatar cavalry near Qinhu Mountain, and occupied the former site of 'Qinhu Mountain' and the former 'Guangwu City'.

Since the defeat of the Tatar tribe in Xuanfu, their military strength has been greatly reduced and their hearts and minds are empty. In addition, the new Khan has not yet been established, and there is chaos inside.

The Oara tribes have a strong military, but their location is far to the west of the grassland, two to three thousand miles away from Qinhu Mountain.

Although the whole clan has been mobilized first, due to the rapid advance of the Jin army, the Mongols have only gathered more than 200,000 horses in Ulaanbaatar so far.

This is not like the Battle of Xuanfu a year ago. The hundreds of thousands of cavalry troops who had withdrawn from Datong were still in the Monan area at any time, so they could rush to the aid of Xuanfu in time and arrive at Zhangjiakou.

But this time, the Mongol tribes were completely unprepared for Li Xuan's departure. The first thing to do is to gather the tribesmen from the Mongols' vast territory of thousands of miles, which is obviously not something that can be done in a short time.

Therefore, Qinhu Mountain, a strategic location, is currently only garrisoned by 40,000 Tatar herdsmen summoned temporarily.

Fan Guang did not even use a revolver in this battle. After expelling the Tatars, he began to organize defenses on the spot, preparing to lead the Jin's subsequent troops across the desert.

When Li Xuan returned to Saihan Mountain, hundreds of thousands of horsemen who had finished resting here had already set off one after another to cross the desert northward.

They were either riding war horses or riding sidecars, meandering like dragons on the desert.

Small bastions can also be seen erected along the way, one almost every thirty miles.

They are only a hundred feet long and wide. The outside is made of simple soil and gravel made from local materials, and the inside is made of simple steel plates provided by the Artifact Alliance.

Because the construction is simple and requires very little manpower, one can be built in three to five days.

They look crudely made, but in fact their defensive capabilities are no less than the walls of a small city.

Each bastion is garrisoned by about a thousand people, all of whom are guard troops equipped with improved shotguns, and are equipped with more than ten squatting tiger cannons.

It stores enough water for 2,000 people for ten days to accommodate the food teams along the way.

Their role is precisely to protect the grain road.

Although they carried a large number of sidecars this time, the various foodstuffs accompanying the army were only enough for the army for two months.

Although Li Xuan is confident that he can solve the problem within two months, as the head coach of the first army, he needs to consider various possible situations.

As the saying goes, "Think about defeat before thinking about victory, and think about loss before thinking about gains." This is the most basic quality of a leader.

Therefore, his requirement for these bastions was that they could hold on for at least three days under the attack of 30,000 Mongolian cavalry.

What gave Li Xuan confidence was the use of flintlock muskets and bastions. It would be difficult for the Mongols to conquer such a fortress without artillery.

The Jin army also has a large number of "night guard" sentries outside, covering hundreds of miles around the grain road, and the spies of the Xiu Yiwei are all over the grasslands.

It is difficult to hide the large-scale mobilization of the Mongol cavalry from their eyes and ears.

This gave the Jin army enough time to respond and mobilize their troops calmly.

On June 15, Li Xuan and his young master Yu Jie arrived at Qinhu Mountain on horseback.

The first thing the two of them did when they arrived here was to pay homage to the relics left by Taizong, the stone tablet inscribed with the words "Hanhai is Tan, Tianshan is E". UU Reading ｗww.uukanshu.netｔ

It is a pity that this stone monument has long been damaged and was blown into rubble by the Mongols.

It takes careful rummaging to find fragments of writing on those rubbles.

Li Xuan had long known that the engraving had been damaged, so he was not disappointed. When he came to Qinhu Mountain, he mainly looked at the topography and the battlefield ruins here.

After that, he led his army to continue marching towards Ulaanbaatar. After crossing the vast sea, Li Xuan only left 50,000 guardsmen in Jizhou Town to garrison Qinhu Mountain, while the rest of his 600,000 troops continued to advance westward.

They no longer marched in the formation of long snakes, but spread out in the north and south directions, forming a fan with a width of more than a hundred miles.

They followed the rivers and streams in the grassland and swept all the fertile pastures near the water.

At this time, some Tatar tribes still failed to evacuate in time. The Jin army raided along the way and captured as many as 30,000 Tatar tribesmen, as well as more than one million cattle and sheep.

Li Xuan fulfilled his bold words to Shang Hongfa. All Tatar tribesmen who were captured were beheaded, their cattle and sheep were divided, and the people were organized into households.

Just when the Jin army arrived at the south bank of the Kerulun River, less than 700 miles away from Ulaanbaatar, Li Xuan received a military report from the Xiuyi Guards.

'Yexian' gathered 630,000 troops in Ulaanbaatar and formed a bloody alliance with more than 100,000 households from the north and south of the grassland.

It is said that this Mongolian Grand Master obtained the commitment of the vast majority of the Mongolian people, as long as he could lead the Mongolian people to drive out foreign aggression and defeat the Jin army led by Li Xuan, the king of Fenyang County.

Then this hero from the 'Cholos' family will replace the 'Bor Zhijin' of the Golden Family and become the Great Khan of all the Mongol people in the north and south of the desert.

Li Xuan didn't care much about this, because at this time, the "Zhou Tian Xing Dou Formation" sitting in the void had completed all the calculations of the "Fusion Nuclear Reactor".
