In the coldest month of winter, there is nothing on the grassland. Where can we get supplies?
However, Wu Keshan looked at Turge's ferocious expression and became a little scared for a moment. He did not dare to argue anymore and had to retreat.
Turge looked at his leaving figure with a fierce look in his eyes, slammed the ground, and then sighed heavily.
After waiting for another hour or so, it was almost noon, but still no one was there.
Turge was getting agitated when he saw Wu Keshan coming again. This time, he was not the only one, including the leader of the Zalut tribe and even Kong Youde.
Turge didn't even need to guess, he immediately knew that Wu Keshan had gone to encourage these two people and then came to persuade him.
In fact, he himself knew that even if he waited any longer, he wouldn't be able to wait for many people.
However, with just such a small number of people, how can we go back and explain!
Turg didn't want to listen to their nagging, so he simply gave the order to leave.
When Wu Keshan heard this, he was very happy, but he was also a little puzzled, where were the promised supplies?
………………
The Mongolian tribe closest to the border of the Ming Dynasty is the Aohan tribe. Since most of the men in the tribe followed the Qing army into the border, everyone is looking forward to how much they can gain this time!
"The pot at home is broken. It should be replaced this time!"
"I want to wear beautiful clothes, silk ones, so that when summer comes, they will be comfortable to wear!"
"I like the women in Guan Nei, they are pretty and graceful. They are not like our own, they are big and thick and ugly!"
"..."
In short, when they gathered together, they basically talked about what they wanted and what to do in the future, as if they would definitely gain a lot from this plunder!
It’s not surprising to have such an idea. Because I have entered the customs several times before, and I didn’t get a lot of money that time!
On this day, the Aohan tribe, who were spending the winter hiding in their yurts, were chatting and spanking as usual, when they suddenly felt something was wrong.
Then, they immediately felt that it was the sound of a large number of horses running.
Now, they became curious.
Since all the tribes surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, the tribes have no longer attacked each other. Anyway, if they are short of supplies, they can just follow the Qing army to enter the pass and plunder.
So where did the large number of cavalry come from at a time like this?
So, they ran out of the yurt one after another, wanting to take a closer look. The remaining troops also began to be on guard.
As a result, not long after, someone came back on horseback and shouted loudly: "It's the Qing army, the Qing people are back!"
Upon hearing this, the people of the Aohan tribe immediately became happy from top to bottom.
The Qing army coming from that direction was obviously an army entering the Pass. Did they return with a full load?
But many people are wondering, how long has it been before they are back?
Those who were waiting excitedly defended the Qing army: "They must have hit the big fat sheep as soon as they entered the customs. Maybe it was the Ming army's baggage supplies, or something else!"
"That's right, there are several cities from the Ming Dynasty at the pass, such as Qian'an and Yongping. I guess those who grabbed these two cities were sent out of the pass first!"
"..."
In the midst of such discussions, men, women and children from the Aohan tribe came out to greet them and watch the excitement. They were all as happy as if they were celebrating a festival.
Even if it was freezing cold and windy, none of them wanted to go back to the yurt.
The sound of horse hooves got closer and closer, and finally a human figure could be seen.
Sure enough, it was the Qing army.
"Ouch, ouch, ouch..." The people of the Aohan tribe cheered and screamed one by one. They didn't know how excited they were.
However, what they never expected was that the soldiers who were left behind to meet the Qing army in front of them screamed and fell off their horses the moment they met the Qing army.
At this moment, all the people of the Aohan tribe who were cheering were dumbfounded and stunned.
What is going on? Why did the Qing army kill people?
For a moment, some people couldn't react.
The cavalry was very fast and quickly rushed towards the welcoming crowd.
"Oops, it must be the Ming army pretending to be a man, run away quickly!"
The Qing army would definitely not kill its own people. This must be the Ming army pretending to be the Ming army. Some people came to this conclusion and started to run away, shouting.
However, they were not prepared at all to escape the pursuit of the charging cavalry.
I saw those cavalry roaring past, leaving corpses all over the ground, including men, women, old and young. No one alive was spared.
It didn't take long for all the people of the Aohan tribe to die.
The cavalrymen dismounted one after another and began to kill cattle and sheep again, and became busy.
A group of cavalry slowly stopped. The man at the head was Turge. He turned to look at Wu Keshan beside him and said coldly: "Isn't this just a supply? What are you afraid of?"
Wu Keshan didn't know if it was because of the cold, his face was pale. Hearing Turge's words, he seemed to tremble a little, nodded quickly and said: "Yes, yes, yes!"
It is common for Mongolian tribes to attack each other. However, generally speaking, they do not kill women and children, but rather enrich their own tribes.
But in front of me, I saw that most of the people from the Aohan tribe were already lying on the ground, including women and children.
Wu Keshan looked at the corpses here. When he dismounted, he even felt a little unsteady.
On the contrary, Kong Youde was much calmer than him and was not surprised at all. He got off his horse and went into the yurt to warm up.
On the next day, these Jianlu and Mongolian Tatars changed their horses and disappeared into the fierce cold wind, leaving behind unburied corpses on the ground, no longer alive.
………………
But inside the pass, in the Gyeonggi region, it was very lively.
The imperial army made a triumphant return, and the people in the passing cities all rushed out of the city to watch. There were beating gongs and drums, and the sound of firecrackers was endless, making it even more lively than during the Chinese New Year.
Looking at the mighty imperial officers and soldiers, and at the strings of Jianlu and Mongol Tatar prisoners, they cheered and cursed, venting their joy and sorrow.
No one expected that the imperial army would fight such a great victory!
No one expected that after the beacon fire was ignited this time, it would not be a massacre of Jianlu, but a great victory for the imperial officers and soldiers!
No one thought that the extremely vicious Jianlu would become a prisoner, looking at each and every one of them as if they were no different from ordinary people!
No one thought that one day, they would see such a scene in front of them!
"The Ming Dynasty will be victorious!"
"Long live my emperor!"
Similar shouts came one after another, many people's voices were hoarse and they were still shouting, for no other reason than that they were happy and excited!
Everyone can predict that after such a big victory, there is no need to worry about Jianlu entering the pass again! Even if they enter the pass, the imperial army has become so powerful and they can defeat Jianlu again.
Like before, I can only hide in the city and pray that the Jianlu will not attack the city!
Happy, delighted, ecstatic, no matter rich or poor, high or low, male or female, old or young, it’s all like this!
Almost everywhere the victorious army passed by, similar scenes were staged one after another.
Even in those places that are far away, you can often see groups of people walking together, rushing to pay homage to the mighty master! At the same time, they also look at the prisoners of Jianlu who killed a thousand swords!
Those who had no ability just went to see him off on the road; while those who had the financial resources rushed to the capital one after another, because they knew that the capital would definitely be more lively, and they wanted to see what happened to Jianlu!
The Spring Festival has not yet passed, but in the capital city and north of the capital, people have already begun to celebrate the New Year in advance. The lively atmosphere is far better than ever before.
In the capital, everyone has been looking forward to it since they first received the news of the great victory. They are looking forward to the triumphant return of the capital camp and the Yongwei camp, and looking forward to seeing tens of thousands of Jianlu prisoners! Looking forward to seeing it,
What was it like for the once arrogant Jianlu to become a prisoner!
On the streets, in restaurants and teahouses, wherever there are people, this matter is basically being discussed. Except for the occasional wealthy people who seem to be discussing some banking matters, there is no other sound.
It was supposed to be the end of the year, and the inns in the capital would basically be deserted. Because those who made a living and did business in the capital would return to their hometowns to reunite and celebrate the New Year.
However, this time, the inn business in the capital became more and more prosperous, so that in the end, it was actually hard to find a room.
There is an endless stream of people flocking from the capital to the capital every day. And every one of them is generous and doesn't care whether it's expensive or not.
Restaurants and tea shops along the street, those in good locations, have even been reserved by people, just so that they can have a good seat to take a look when the victorious army escorts the captives past.
People from the north of the capital were the first to flock to the city. Later, more and more people from the south of the capital got the news, and they all flocked to the capital, just to have a glimpse of the victorious army and experience it.
Those prisoners of war!
Generally speaking, when there are more people, there are more disputes, which is the biggest headache for local officials.
However, this time, the population of the capital reached an unprecedented peak, but there was little right or wrong.
Even those people who are usually petty and vindictive are open-minded and tolerant. They all smile to each other and speak auspicious words whenever they speak.
The unprecedented great victory is also adjusting the public sentiment of the people of Ming Dynasty!
The itinerary of the triumphant army is reported every day! Every time the news is reported, it will cause a heated discussion.
Even many wealthy people couldn't wait and called their friends to ride horses and rush to meet the victorious army and have a quick look!
Under the great expectations of all the people in the capital, as time passed, the triumphant army finally arrived in the capital.
On this day, the streets were empty.
Many people felt that they could not get a seat on the streets of the city where they could see the victorious army, so they ran out of the capital early in the morning and went outside the city to wait for the victorious army, regardless of the biting cold wind.
On behalf of the imperial court, He Fengsheng, the chief minister of the cabinet, also waited at the city gate early to greet him.
"It's coming, it's coming, look, it's coming!"
With shouts of surprise, the victorious army finally appeared in front of them.
