Chapter 1042 The gap before the final battle - Sand Michagan
"Have you brought all the luggage?" Xu Huizu asked.
"I brought them all and put them all in the car. Before I came to report to the two generals, I ordered them to unload the baggage. General, please tell me whether you should send it to the baggage camp or leave it in our camp."
Yang Feng asked.
"Just stay in your camp. Most of the baggage is weapons handed over to the Imperial Guard by the Emperor, and other guards will not use them. Besides, the baggage camp is not close to your barracks, so it is not easy to transport them."
Xu Huizu said.
"Yes, General." Yang Feng nodded in agreement.
Xu Huizu asked a few more questions and let him go down.
After he retreated, Lan Zhen asked: "Brother Xu, in your opinion, can Yang Feng know how to fight?"
"He? It's hard to tell with just such a few glances. I never paid attention to him when he was a guard beside His Majesty in the past." Xu Huizu paused and said.
Lan Zhen's face showed a look of disappointment. Although Yunxi had previously promoted Zhang Fu and Zhang Fu had proved his ability, the generals of the Ming Dynasty did not fully believe in the emperor's vision and still had doubts. Xu Huizu was recognized as a visionary.
Yes, so Lan Zhen asked him at this time.
"The reason why I judge people more accurately than you all is because I never make up my mind after just a few glances. I have to look at him for a few more days before I can make a conclusion, and only then can I dare to make a judgment." Xu Huizu said again.
"I also know that because the emperor has entrusted the imperial guard to you, you are afraid that the loss will be too great to explain. Let Yang Feng fight in the past few days to test his level."
"It's not just the loss of Shang Zhiwei. Yang Feng himself is also the consort of the eldest princess of Zhongshan, and Her Highness the Princess is already, and I heard that the princess really likes him. If Yang Feng is damaged, that is not a good thing." Lan Zhen said honestly.
Said. He knew Xu Huizu very well, so he spoke frankly.
"This really needs to be considered," Xu Hui said. This is the second time that Her Royal Highness the Princess has been conferred the title of Prince Consort. If she really dies or becomes disabled in battle, Your Majesty will not have any grudges. What's more, Her Royal Highness the Princess still likes it, likes it?
Thinking of this, Xu Huizu suddenly came to his senses and asked Lan Zhen: "The eldest princess of Zhongshan likes the consort? How do you know?"
"Ah!" Lan Zhen immediately covered her mouth with a look of remorse. The outside world didn't know about this matter. He only found out about it when Siqi leaked it. He couldn't spread it around at will.
"Brother Xu, I vaguely heard someone say that there is such a thing, and I don't know whether it is true or not. You can't say this casually. It was me, Meng Lang, just now."
Xu Huizu glanced at him and said nothing. Lan Zhen must have exact information, and maybe it was Lan Siqi who told him. But since he didn't want to say more, that was all.
Xu Huizu talked to him about business: "More than 50,000 Yang Feng's five superior guards have arrived at Yiwu City. Now we have a total of more than 470,000 people. There is no need to be afraid of Timur."
"But I think we should fight steadily, not be greedy for credit, and wait until the opportunity comes before sending troops. Besides, there are tens of thousands of troops coming behind us, so don't be anxious."
"The tens of thousands of soldiers behind," Lan Zhen said with a look of contempt on her face: "Except for the few men sent by His Highness Prince Ning, the others have no fighting power at all. Even if they reach Yiwu City, they are just a waste of food."
"You can't say that. Every guard post and even the barbarian soldiers have their uses." Xu Huizu said immediately.
Lan Zhen did not refute Xu Huizu's words, but her expression was still very disapproving. Xu Huizu could not do anything either.
The two of them discussed a few more words. Lan Zhen was about to leave to deal with the affairs of the front army. Suddenly, one of Xu Huizu's guards came in and loudly announced: "My lord, General Lan, we will also try our best to clean up the Khan Shami here."
Come with your troops and ask to see your lord."
"Shami Chagan? He still dares to come!" Lan Zhen heard this name and immediately became very angry: "He led 40,000 cavalry, of which 10,000 were allocated to him by His Highness the King of Qin, so he was counting on him outside
Try to contain the Xilu soldiers, but what have they been doing these past few days? There is no sign of him outside Yiwu City."
"Brother Xu, Shami Chagan is totally unreliable. Why don't we pretend to accept Shami Chagan and let him lead troops to station nearby. Then we can use both soft and hard tactics to seize his soldiers."
"This," after listening to Lan Zhen's suggestion, Xu Huizu was silent for a moment and said, "No, Sha Mi Chagan is still useful now, so we can't just take his soldiers away."
"Brother Xu! These Mongolians cannot be trusted. Even if he brings troops to seek refuge now, it is only because our army has lifted the siege of Yiwu City, and there will be more battles to come. If our army lives in
At a disadvantage, I'm afraid he will turn around and kill the Ming soldiers in his hands first, and then lead them to attack our army with their own strength." Lan Zhen stood up and said.
"I know what you are saying. But he is still useful now." Xu Huizu said: "Although letting him fight will not be too effective, after all, he will not join Timur for the time being; if we seize his men now, one day
Once the Mongols under him are in our hands, they will not be willing to fight. Secondly, the other tribes in Yili who are hiding in the south will be suspicious of me, and it will be even more difficult to surrender them in the future."
"Brother Xu, why are you thinking about what will happen after winning the battle now? Before leaving, His Majesty specifically told us that we must not win this battle first and fight later to prevent us from being careless and underestimating the enemy. We haven't defeated the Xilu yet, but we don't want to think about this.
time." Lan Zhen said.
Xu Huizu was stunned. Lan Zhen's words did make sense, but he was a little overthinking.
But he thought about it again and felt that even if he seized these 30,000 horses, it would be of little use, so he said to a guard: "Go to the King of Jin and His Highness King Gaoping and ask them to come over. But if they are with His Highness the King of Qin,
, there is no need to invite them over, but just report that Yang Feng has sent troops to come."
The guards followed the order and came down. Lan Zhen knew that he did not invite Qin King Zhu Shangbing to come to discuss the matter because he had been besieged in Yiwu City for twenty days. She was probably resentful of Shami Chagan who had not shown up. However, Xu Huizu also had a reason to do this.
Logically, he couldn't object.
After a while, Jin King Zhu Jixi came over and heard what Xu Huizu said about the matter. After thinking for a while, he said: "It's better to see Sha Mi to check it out first, and then make a conclusion."
…
…
"Our prince and General Xu have invited you, the king of Yili." A guard walked up to Shami Chagan, straightened his body and said.
Shami Chagan didn't care about this humiliation. He took out two small silver ingots of five liang each and handed them to him. He asked softly: "My lord, how do you feel about His Highness King Qin?"
The guard did not immediately reach out to take the money. Instead, after he finished speaking the question he wanted to ask, he took the money from his hand and said, "Who told you that His Highness the King of Qin summoned you? It was our Highness the King of Jin.
."
"His Royal Highness King Jin?" Shami Chagan was startled. He knew that there was a King Jin in the Ming Dynasty, but it was said that the fiefdom was far away from here. How could he suddenly appear in Yiwu City?
"That's His Royal Highness Prince Jin. Don't stand here now. Your Highness and General Xu are waiting." The guard said again. He was the guard next to Ji Xi. When he came to Yiwu, he heard about the glory of Sha Mi Chagan.
After the "History", I looked down upon him very much, and he was not polite at all.
Shami Chagan paused and decided to go with him to see the King of Jin and Xu Huizu. It was a blessing, not a curse, but it was a curse that could not be avoided. Since he had come to join the Ming army again, he had already expected to be humiliated. As long as he did not kill himself
That’s it.
"If I had led my troops to show up near Yiwu City, even if it only happened once, I wouldn't have to be so passive now." Shami Chagan couldn't help but sigh. But even though he sighed like this, if he was given another chance, he would
It is necessary to lead the troops away from Yiwu City. Timur's cavalry is not weak. If he is discovered, his entire army may be annihilated. Even if the entire army is not annihilated, these 30,000 people will almost be his last base. If he is eliminated, he
You can only find a cemetery in advance.
Shame Chagan followed the guard into the military camp. They came to a large tent. The guard whispered a few words to the guard, and the guard immediately walked in. After a while, he heard a voice: "Please Yili
Let King Shami of Lihan be checked and accounted for."
Sha Mizhagan hurriedly walked in, and when he saw a man dressed similar to Shang Bing, he immediately bowed and said, "Yi Li, the king of Li, Sha Mchaqian, has met His Highness the Ming Dynasty King Jin." He then said to Xu Huizu, "See you.
Pass General Xu."
Seeing his respectful attitude, Ji Xi felt happy. He stepped forward to help him up and said, "There is no need to pay so much courtesy. I am just a prince, and my rank is the same as that of the monarch. The monarch does not need to salute me."
"How can this be the same?" Shami Chagan continued to speak respectfully.
He had no choice but to do so. He knew that the appearance that he and his father had pretended to be a relatively powerful country had been completely exposed this time. It would be impossible to maintain their status in the future, and their status would be directly reduced to that of Wu Liangha.
The three guards are almost the same - the leaders of the three guards of Wuliangha are just commanders at this time. They are ordered around by several princes from the Northeast and dare not disobey orders at all - they can only keep their posture lower in order to
After the Ming Dynasty won this battle, he was left to rule the Gurbantunggut Basin instead of replacing him with another person.
Perhaps his low profile played a role. Although Ji Xi asked a few questions, he let him go and let him lead troops to station near Geng Xuan's headquarters and provide him with food and grass.
"But this time, the soldiers here must obey the unified dispatch of the army. If there is any disrespect to military orders, General Xu will deal with the generals in charge." Ji Xi said.
"I know. I will never dare to hinder the marching method." Samizha said hurriedly. But I don't know what he was thinking in his heart.
Ji Yi said a few more words to him and asked him to retreat.
As soon as Shami Chagan went down, Ji Xi immediately said to Xu Huizu: "Brother Xu, let the army guard Shami Chagan's headquarters. It's best to send people to infiltrate his army."
"Why is this?" Xu Huizu asked.
Ji Xi whispered a few words in his ear, and Xu Huizu understood and said: "I know, let's make arrangements immediately."
