The war horses neighed, the old man shouted and the children cried, the swords collided, and the sounds of muskets intertwined to form a picture of war.

The battle ended in less than half an hour. In fact, this should not be called a battle, but a massacre. Five hundred murderous cavalry raided the unprepared tribe of more than a thousand people, and it was like a pack of wolves storming into the flock of sheep. Although the young and strong men hurriedly took out their weapons to resist, their resistance seemed so powerless when facing these Jiangning cavalry armed to the teeth. Facing the muskets and sharp sabers of the Jiangning cavalry, they all fell into a pool of blood.

When Yang Feng arrived surrounded by hundreds of servants, he saw only corpses and pairs of horrified eyes.

Yang Daniu, who was still stained with blood, walked to Yang Feng happily, saluted and said loudly: "Sir, I have encircled all the tribes here, killed 304 rebels and captured 831 herders. The seized cattle, sheep and horses have not yet been counted. Please give me advice!"

"You are doing a good job!" Yang Feng glanced at the crowd of people standing in front of him with horror, hatred and uneasiness in their eyes, nodded with satisfaction, and said to Yang Daniu with a smile: "Today your raid speed is very fast, several minutes faster than usual. Raid, encirclement, and battles are all done in one go. It seems that your cavalry brigade has made considerable progress during this period!"

Faced with Yang Feng's praise, Yang Daniu said modestly: "Sir, you dare not take credit for your humble position. The fact that you can end the battle so quickly today is inseparable from the efforts and help of several robes. You really dare not take credit for your subordinates!"

Yang Feng asked curiously: "Oh...who is it?"

Yang Daniu said loudly: "I am the boss and several robes whom I used to work in Liaodong. A few days ago, they had joined the Jiangning Army with the compassion of the Lord. They were not lucky enough to witness the appearance of the Lord. Today, please allow Beizhi to dare to introduce them to the Lord."

Looking at Yang Daniu's longing face, Yang Feng smiled faintly: "Okay, call them all and let me see."

Seeing Yang Feng agreeing, Yang Daniu said excitedly: "It's...Mr. Xie!"

Soon, several cavalrymen wearing Jiangning Army armor came to Yang Feng under Yang Daniu's leadership and bowed down together and said respectfully: "The humble position of Zhao Dayong, Lao Wangtou, Zhang Heizi, you have the Tao in front of you, Qian Youming, Deng Xianfeng pays homage to you!"

Looking at the clean and iron-blooded temperament of the people kneeling on the ground, Yang Feng knew without asking that these people must be elites in the Liaodong army. He smiled, got off the horse and helped the people up, and then asked: "I heard from Daniu that you are all the robes he was working in Liaodong. Is that true?"

"Sir, that's exactly what it is!" Zhao Dayong, the leader, said respectfully.

Yang Feng looked at Zhao Dayong and smiled, "I heard you have another nickname called Boss Zhao?"

Zhao Dayong said in a panic: "Sir, I laughed at you. When I was at home, I was the boss. After I joined the army in Liaodong, I received a favor from the officials and rewarded him with the title of "Sir, I was the boss of Zhao, who was jokingly called "Sir, I was the boss of Zhao, but how can I afford this title in front of the adults?"

"Hahaha..." Yang Feng laughed: "You don't have to be modest. There is nothing wrong with the name of Boss Zhao. At least it sounds so majestic. You don't know. In the past, when I was not in the army, what I most hoped was that someone called me "Boss". Unfortunately, this wish has not been fulfilled so I still envy you. People call you "Boss" every day, so it sounds so comfortable."

"Hahaha……"

The officers on the side laughed, and after the laughter stopped, Yang Feng said to Mr. Zhao: "Zhao Dayong, now that my Jiangning Army cavalry is first established, there are very few qualified officers, so that Yang Daniu's dignified cavalry captain actually wanted to play the night without taking it. This really made me feel helpless. I am deeply pleased to see you come to serve in my Jiangning Army. Let's do this... I plan to form a night without taking it, so you will be the captain. As for the official position, I will temporarily appoint you as the chief. The brothers behind you have appointed them as the captains of each squadron. Why is the official position temporarily appointed to the chief, what do you think?"

After hearing Yang Feng's words, Boss Zhao and others were overjoyed. They were originally working hard in the Liaodong Army for several years and were still big-headed soldiers. Boss Zhao, who had the largest official position, was just a leader. Now, they just came to Jiangning Army and became chiefs one by one. Boss Zhao was even appointed as chiefs. This is an equivalent position of a hundred households. How can they not be overjoyed?

"Mr. Xie appreciates it. Hu-Lei will definitely live up to his expectations and be willing to die for him!" Boss Zhao and others were so excited that they knelt down and kowtowed to Yang Feng. It's no wonder they were so excited. The Ming Dynasty took more than two hundred years of development, and the entire social class had already begun to solidify, and the same was true for the army. It would be difficult for ordinary people or poor children to be promoted. People like Boss Zhao have been working in Liaodong for so many years and at best they can make a big difference. This is also the reason why they immediately turned to the Jiangning Army without hesitation after being invited by Yang Daniu.

Yang Feng didn't stop him and received the gift with a smile.

Boss Zhao, after kowtowed, he stood aside consciously.

Until this time, the infantrymen who cooperated with the cavalry to sweep away had driven all the herdsmen to the open space. Yang Feng turned his eyes to those people again, and his brows were a little frowned. Qiu Disheng, who was beside him, was very thoughtful. After seeing Yang Feng's hesitant expression, he immediately guessed Yang Feng's concern. He asked, "Are you worried that these herdsmen will drag down the army's marching speed?"

"Yes!" Yang Feng said frankly: "Under normal circumstances, our army can march fifty or sixty miles a day. If I take these herdsmen, I am worried that I may not be able to even walk thirty miles."

"Sir, then do we want to get them all..." Chu Maoguang, who was standing beside him, came over to cut his throat after hearing this.

"No!" Yang Feng shook his head, "We all have great uses for these herdsmen. If they were in Nanjing later, they would be good laborers. Moreover, the situation here was much better than I had expected. I originally thought that these Mongolians would resist to the end. They would never stop resisting without killing all their adult men. They never thought they would surrender so quickly."

After hearing this, Yang Daniu smiled and said, "Sir, I'm worried too much. The Mongols today have long been dissatisfied with the bravery and powerful era of their ancestor Genghis Khan more than 300 years ago. If they have half of their ancestor's ability, they will not be able to gain the share of the Later Jin Tartars. Moreover, for the Mongols, it is common for one tribe to annex another tribe, and the herdsmen are used to it. It is nothing more than a person who ruled them. It is rare for this tribe to surrender after more than 300 people died.

And sir, don’t worry that these Mongolians will drag down our marching speed. Don’t forget that the Mongolians have long been used to chasing water and grass. If they really marching speed, they might be faster than those of us sergeants who just walk on two legs."

"There is still this?" Yang Feng touched his chin. If this was the case, the plan he had made might have been slightly modified. After thinking about it, he said aloud: "Qiu Disheng!"

Qiu Disheng shuddered and said loudly: "Take all these herdsmen to the baggage camp and let Cui Zheng take strict care of them. Then collect these cattle, sheep, carts and other things to the baggage camp. The extra war horses will be handed over to the cavalry brigade and continue to move north tomorrow!"

"clear!"

In this way, Yang Feng led the Jiangning Army with less than 10,000 people all the way toward the northwest. Along the way, they would approach the large tribes with more than tens of thousands of people. If they met a small tribe with thousands of people, they would pounce on them like hungry wolves to encircle the tribe. If they were willing to surrender, they would arrest everyone. If they refused to surrender, they would mobilize artillery battalions, musket soldiers and cavalry to encircle them. Facing the Jiangning Army that was armed to the teeth, these weapons and combat ideas remained hundreds of years ago. The Mongolian tribes who were still melted like snow and encountered scorching sun.

By mid-October, Yueyang's team had expanded to more than 30,000 like snowballs, and more than 100,000 cattle and sheep were seized. What made Yang Feng particularly happy was that the captured war horses were unexpectedly much, reaching nearly 10,000. This made Yang Feng a little excited. If he continued at this speed, he might be able to reach the number of war horses needed to form a cavalry soon. Is it necessary to go to the Korqin tribe in this way?

Just when Yang Feng was hesitating, the newly appointed team leader, Boss Zhao, brought him bad news.

"Sir, the night led by Heizi and others is not reported. What we have done these days has alarmed the three tribes of the Khalkha tribe. The Khalkha tribe was extremely shocked. Now the Khan of the three tribes of Tusitu Khan Chahundorji, Chechen Khan Babu and Zasaktu Khan Nolb have jointly sent more than 10,000 people to search in our direction. Now they are more than 160 miles away. If we rush, we can catch up with us in one day."

"There's still this!"

Yang Feng patted his head. It seemed that he had been a little proud these days. He led his army to play the Three Lights Policy on the Mongolian territory. Even if the people of the Khalkha tribe were stupid, they should have reported it. After thinking about it, he asked, "Dayong, can we get rid of those Mongolians?"

"No!" Zhao Dayong shook his head: "The Mongolians are all cavalry, and we have too many jars and jars. So many cattle and sheep and big trucks of supplies. Now it is the limit to marching for 60 miles a day. It is impossible to compete with the Mongolian cavalry with one man, three horses or even four horses. It will be a matter of time before they catch up with us."

Yang Feng stopped talking. In fact, he was not afraid of the more than 10,000 Mongolian cavalry, but the Jiangning army has carried too many jars and jars after more than ten days of plunder. Moreover, the more than 20,000 herders captured were also a problem. If these herders came to fight with the Mongolian cavalry, it would be troublesome. So Yang Feng has tried his best to avoid those big tribes these days. But now it is not the reason why they cannot avoid it, but the Mongolians are anxious and red in their eyes to fight their lives with him.

"His grandma, since she can't escape, she won't run away. Let's fight them for a while!"

After making up his mind, Yang Feng called out the guide Hari Tao Gao.

"Harritaogao, what's the terrain nearby? Are there any higher peaks and strange terrain?"

Hearing Yang Feng’s question, Hari Taogao thought for a while and shook his head, "Sir, this place is close to Haolebuzhan. The surrounding terrain is very flat, but there is an unknown hill thirty miles northeast of the front, and there is no strange terrain or peaks."

Hearing this, Yang Feng gave the order without hesitation, the entire army turned and rushed towards the place Haritaogao said, where he wanted to teach the people of the Khalkha tribe an unforgettable lesson.

Just as Yang Feng led the Jiangning army to continue rushing forward, another unexpected situation happened.

In Yang Feng's team, there was a huge car that was particularly eye-catching. From the appearance, the car was all made of wooden structures, but the chassis was made of the minibus bus that Yang Feng got from modern society, so it was much better in terms of comfort than the big car of this era. At this time, in this car, Zheng Tuo Niang and Shin Niang, the master and servant, were staring at the monitor nervously. Shin Niang pointed to the monitor and said nervously, "Miss, look, there are quite a few people below. I counted it, and there were at least three thousand people?"

Zheng Tuo Niang took a deep breath: "Okay, continue to look at them, I'll report to the Lord immediately!"

After saying that, Zheng Tuo Niang immediately took out the walkie-talkie...

More than ten minutes later, Yang Feng hurried over, he pushed open the door and asked, "What's the matter?"

Zheng Tuoni said a little embarrassedly: "Sir, just now, while using a drone to patrol, I found a team more than ten miles ahead of us. After observing it, we couldn't figure out their identities, so we notified you to come and take a look."

Yang Feng said in surprise: "Yes, I'll take a look."

After saying that, Yang Feng sat in front of the monitor and said to the liner: "Flying mother, fly lower so that you can see clearly."

"Okay." The girl in the Wire agreed, and controlled the joystick to reduce the height of the drone to more than 300 meters. The picture became much clearer.

Yang Feng muttered as he looked: "Well... their clothes do not look like Mongolian herders, but rather... they are... not good... they are Jurchen Tartars!"
