Jin Xiaoyu sent troops from Huangyuan, the bridgehead of Xining Prefecture, and led 30,000 soldiers and horses to charge towards Haiyan City.
The army advanced quickly and just arrived at Haiyan. Under Jin Xiaoyu's order, they attacked the small Haiyan County.
The Mongolian soldiers in the city were caught off guard and boarded the city to fight with Jin Xiaoyu's Xining guards. From midday to evening, there was a "squeaking" sound from the city gate.
Jin Xiaoyu led the soldiers and horses of Xining Prefecture into the city. The Mongolian wolf flag originally hung at the top of the city was thrown to the bottom of the city and replaced with the black and red satin Chinese character flag of the Han army.
The dusk was dark, the bright moon was high, and the shouts of killing around him gradually became smaller.
The general reported that the city of Haiyan had been destroyed and the Mongolian soldiers and horses in the city fled westward.
"Don't chase the poor bandits, enter the city first and take over Haiyan City." Jin Xiaoyu, wearing bright silver armor and a green cloak, ordered.
Following the military order, a mighty army surrounded Jin Xiaoyu into the county town. When he entered the main hall of the official hall, Da Ma sat down on the official chair in the blue sky and white sun. On his young and handsome face, the look of joy showed, and he felt proud. Full.
Jin Xiaoyu looked excited and ordered the civil servants on the side: "Report the victory to the court."
"Yes." The clerk said loudly.
Jin Xiaoyu turned to look at the middle-aged general wearing maroon mountain pattern armor and said in an excited voice: "Uncle, although these Mongolian soldiers and horses are unparalleled in the field, they are not good at defending the city. After a slight charge, they abandoned the city and fled. Wait. After a short rest, we marched westward and recaptured Qinghai in one fell swoop, shocking the barbarians."
He, Jin Xiaoyu, is not much worse than Jia Heng's son. With the fighting power of Xining Mansion's guards and horses, it is no problem to sweep across Qinghai.
In the past, my father wanted to take care of the overall situation and did not want the court to take the opportunity to interfere in Qinghai affairs. This gave Qinghai Mongolia the opportunity.
If he could sweep away Hehuang, intimidate all the barbarians, and wish to raise the prestige of the Han Dynasty in Qinghai, he, Jin Xiaoyu, could also successfully subdue the doubts of the Jin family.
At this time, Jin Xiaoyu's uncle Zhan Yunguo, who came with the army, did not look so relaxed. He reminded: "Yu'er must not underestimate the enemy. Qinghai Qianghu and Mongolian mixed Qiang have 150,000 or 60,000 soldiers who dare to fight. Now we have recovered Haiyan." From now on, we should quickly build the city and send spies to Qinghai to spy on the movements of Heshuote's Taijis. If they come in large numbers, we should also send more reinforcements to Xining."
Jin Xiaoyu nodded and said: "What my uncle said is true. General Hao sent the Mongols and Han people in the city to build the city and the fort. I want to make this an outpost for my Han Dynasty to invade the Western Regions!"
A general with a dark complexion and medium height stepped out of the queue with his fists clasped and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, don't worry, we will live up to His Highness's expectations!"
After Jin Xiaoyu assigned the generals in the city one by one, he looked at Zhan Yunguo expectantly and said: "Uncle, if this battle can shock the Qinghai captives, then the court will also be shocked by it, and maybe I can be your commander. Prepare the army, recover the old lands of the Han and Tang Dynasties, and reach beyond the Great Wall."
The brilliant results achieved by the Jingying camp in Xuanda are enough to show that the Han Dynasty's national and military strength has recovered, and that he cannot fall behind Jia Heng'er in the northwest.
Zhan Yunguo frowned and said: "Yu'er, to regain Hehuang and march into the Western Regions, we have to look at the wishes of the ministers and ministers in the temple, so we should not be reckless."
However, Jin Xiaoyu disagreed and said: "When the war started, I reported to the imperial court and pointed out the grand plan of the Holy One. How could it not be allowed?"
Then why does Jia Heng's son continue to be favored by the saints and win battles all the time?
This is his achievement of external expansion, which is even rarer than that of that child.
Seeing the ambitious Jin Xiaoyu, Zhan Yunguo felt a layer of worry in his heart.
While the uncle and nephew were talking, near an unknown river valley to the west of Qinghai Lake, more than a hundred miles away from Haiyan City, tents stood next to the amber-green Qinghai Lake, looking like white in the green grassland. clouds.
Night falls, the bright moon is in the sky, and there are only a few stars in the clear sky.
In a tent with a gold roof and inlaid with pearls and agate, the lights were brightly lit, as bright as day.
In the tent, a group of senior officials from Heshuote Mongolia were drinking happily, talking and laughing loudly, and the sounds of dancing girls and Hu Le could be heard from time to time.
Dorji, the sixth son of Gushi Khan, sat on a large Hu chair, with his chest exposed, and a tuft of chest hair was particularly eye-catching. On a long table in front of him, there were cut watermelons, grapes and other seasonal fruits and vegetables. , and the full bottle of wine in the wine bottle is as bright as blood under the light.
Gushi Khan (Gushi Khan) was the 19th grandson of Genghis Khan's younger brother Hesar, the fourth son of Oirat Khan Haninoyan Honggoer, and a descendant of the Borzhijin clan. In other words, he was also a descendant of the Golden Family.
Gu Shihan entrusted Bataiji in Qinghai, and his sixth son Dorji was near Qinghai Lake.
At this moment, Dorji's generals and retinues were sitting not far away, accompanied by several women serving drinks and wearing scantily clad clothes.
Dorji looked around and said with emotion: "Since Father Khan's expedition to Tibet, Qinghai has been calm. The Han people have also shrunk to Xining Fucheng. The pastures around the holy lake are rich and fertile. It is our hometown where we can live forever."
The other generals and subordinates in the tent burst into laughter.
Qinghai was known as the land of Hehuang in ancient times. It was a place where Qiang and Hu people lived together in the past dynasties. After the fall of the Yuan Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty was established and the four guards outside the Great Wall were built. During the Zhengde and Jiajing years, they were all lost. The Ming army retreated to the east of Jiayuguan, and the vast territory of the Western Region was no longer available. It was owned by the Zhengshuo Dynasty of the Central Plains.
Chen Han followed the former Ming Dynasty, and during the years of Taizu and Taizong, he mainly cleared the resistance of the former Ming clan and elders in the northwest and Bashu lands, and did not set foot in Hehuang.
In the last years of Emperor Taizong of the Chen Han Dynasty, as the country was established and the world gradually became more peaceful, the Central Committee of the Chen Han Dynasty also worked hard to regain the four guards outside the Great Wall and march into the Western Regions. However, the remaining Mongolian tribes were entrenched in Qinghai and had not been able to do so.
During the Longzhi period, after the defeat of Liaodong, the Han Dynasty's national power was greatly reduced, and it also adopted a national policy of comprehensive contraction in border defense. It was even less able to conquer Qinghai or even recover the more distant Western Regions.
The Western Region is now occupied by the Jungar Khanate, and the Heshuote Mongols also established the Heshuote Khanate after pacifying Qinghai. Gushi Khan has already led troops to conquer Tibet.
It can be said that the northwest direction of Chen-Han is currently in a delicately balanced situation, but over time, it will definitely become unstable.
Just as they were drinking and drinking in the tent, a burly man with a majestic face, a flat nose and a big mouth, and a beard under his chin strode into the tent, clasped his fists and said: "Taiji, Jurchen Yue Tuo County Prince coming."
Dorzi nodded, put down his wine glass, and said, "Invite them over."
After a while, Yue Tuan led several arrogant men into the tent, saluted Dorji and said, "Dear Taiji."
Yue Tuan has been here for a few days, and Dorji has been entertaining him with delicious food and drinks.
Dorji nodded with a smile and said, "Yue Tuo Taiji, please take a seat."
Yue Tuo thanked him, then sat down nearby while the servant poured wine.
Dorji smiled and said: "I heard what your Excellency said the day before yesterday. Meng'an sent troops to capture Haiyan and collected countless cattle, sheep, grains, gold, silver and jewels."
Yue Tuo looked indifferent and said with a smile: "Taiji, this is just a small fight, not worth mentioning. Xining has just changed hands, and the Han people are in panic. If they can capture Xining, use it as their capital, and invade the Central Plains , then why worry about not being able to reproduce the glory of the Golden Family?"
When Dorji heard this, he shook his head and said: "Before leaving, my father Khan repeatedly warned not to have any major conflicts with the Han people. Previously, it could only be regarded as a test. Taking Haiyan is already a huge step."
"But the Han people may not just sit back and watch the fall of Haiyan. The Han people just won a great victory not long ago, and they will definitely expand into the Western Regions ambitiously and regain the old lands of the Han and Tang Dynasties." Yue Tuo smiled and said.
Dorji said: "This matter is too far away. It won't be too late to make plans at that time."
At this time, a general under Dorji put down his wine cup and said with a smile: "I heard that you just suffered a defeat in the east. Even if the Han people regain their homeland, they will attack Liaodong first."
Dorji frowned and picked up the glass of wine in his hand, his face expressionless as he observed Yue Tuo's reaction.
During this period, as he came into contact with Yue Tuo, Dorji was deeply impressed by Yue Tuo's courage and ability, and developed a sense of sympathy for each other.
Yue Tuo said: "Not necessarily! Although our country was defeated, its national strength was not lost at all. There were hundreds of thousands of armored men. The Han court did not dare to pursue it. Instead, the tribes of Qinghai in the northwest were like a ball of scattered sand, just like the Han people using their troops in the northwest. , we will probably achieve a great victory. My emperor is worried that Qinghai Mongolia will be conquered by the Han Dynasty, so he sent me to discuss with Taiji the plan to resist the Han Dynasty and prevent the Han army from expanding eastward."
Dorji frowned and said, "Xining doesn't seem to be sending troops recently."
Since taking Haiyan City, Dorji also paid attention to the movements in Xining Mansion, but when he saw that it was quiet, he gradually felt relieved.
Keep running and dancing.
However, Yue Tuo advised: "Taiji, there is a saying among the Han people that no one should be allowed to sleep soundly on the side of the couch. Now Heshuote is grazing around Qinghai. At any time, the Han army will definitely send troops to recapture Huangyuan and Xining. "
While everyone was discussing, the neighing of war horses suddenly came from outside the tent, reaching far away in the quiet summer night when the stars filled the night sky.
"Taiji is in bad condition." A short man with hair in three braids trotted into the tent and said anxiously: "Meng'an has led the people back."
Meng'an was the Mongolian general who occupied Haiyan County. He originally led five thousand soldiers and horses to station in Haiyan.
After a while, the fat Meng An entered the military tent, with blood and sweat on his chubby face, and said: "Taiji, the Han soldiers attacked Haiyan City and recaptured the city."
Dorji's expression suddenly changed, his eyes flashed with semen, and he said, "What's going on?"
Meng'an was out of breath. After describing the situation of Haiyan's fall, he said: "The Han army came in large numbers and the city is small. Our army is no match. We can only abandon the city and flee. I hope Taiji will forgive me."
Upon hearing this, Dorji looked gloomy and said, "How dare the Han army really send troops?"
After saying that, he turned to look at Yue Tuo who was standing aside, with a faint look in his eyes, and said, "The Han people have recaptured Haiyan again. Do you have any good ideas?"
Why did he feel like he was being plotted?
Yue Tuo said: "Taiji, after the Han people regain Haiyan City, they will never give up. They will definitely still send troops to conquer Qinghai. Taiji should make plans in advance."
"How is the combat strength of Xining Mansion's troops?" Dorji frowned and asked.
Meng'an's eyes flashed as he explained: "The combat power is average, but they brought artillery and muskets and swarmed into the city. The city was too small to expand. I was worried that my men would suffer too many casualties, so I had to withdraw from the city." , I still have 3,500 troops under my command."
Dorji thought for a while, his eyes flickered with a trace of determination, and he said in a deep voice: "Assemble several other troops to deal with the Han army, send a message to Yilduzi and Darji, and ask their troops to gather in Qinghai to suppress them. Han army!"
If he can defeat the Han army and advance to Xining, he will be the general manager of Qinghai Taiji after his father Khan takes control of Lhasa.
When Yue Tuo heard this, he felt happy.
As a result, the entire Qinghai Mongolia and the Han court were facing each other. Once the war broke out, the Han court had no choice but to recuperate.
Of course, he will also help Dorji defeat the Han court's troops.
…
…
Just when the Han army outside Xining won the first battle, the Mongols from Qinghai heard the news and arrived, and when clouds of war in the northwest were thick, everything was calm in the city of Shenjing.
Ningguo Mansion, the courtyard near Jia Mu——
It was afternoon. Jia Heng sat aside and looked at Yuanyang talking to Xiren.
As Yuanyang said, Jia Mu did not send anyone over to call her, but seemed to give the young couple, who had reunited after a long separation, a chance to be alone.
"This is the new tea this year, take a sip." Yuanyang looked at Xiren with soft eyes and said with a slight smile.
Xiren said, and couldn't help but catch a glimpse of the ring on Yuanyang's finger. His eyes moved slightly and he chuckled: "Then I'm going to have a good taste."
Because Jia Heng was not far away, it was impossible for the two maids to pretend that Jia Heng did not exist. Although Xiren was joking, after all, he had a little more scruples.
Jia Heng asked: "Xiren, how long does Sister Lin usually take her nap?"
Xiren said softly: "Not necessarily, but it's probably not the right time. The girl is usually very happy, chatting and laughing with Miss Yun and the third girl. In the past two days, maybe the uncle is too busy and has no time to watch. Hold the girl."
The young couple is now in a relationship, and after not seeing each other for a few days, Miss Lin doesn't want to eat or drink.
Jia Heng nodded and said, "I'll tell you to go see her later."
That day at Zhujin Tower in Zilingzhou, I told Daiyu that I would go see Daiyu when I had time, but after a few days, I didn't have much time.
Daiyu stays up late at night, maybe it has something to do with taking a nap and not feeling sleepy at night?
The attacker looked at the thoughtful young man with a handsome face, pursed his pink lips, and said softly, "Master, don't worry too much. Thinking about the years since Miss Lin entered the house, I don’t know how many tears I shed, and my body is so weak that I am very different now than before.”
Jia Heng said: "Sister Lin..."
A smile appeared on Yuanyang Yadan's face, and he said softly: "Master, why don't you go see Miss Lin first? I don't have anything to do here."
Jia Heng: "..."
Yes, there is someone jealous here.
Of course, it's not necessarily jealous.
He came closer, took the girl's slender hand, put it in his hand, looked at the girl with sharp eyebrows, and said softly: "I'm here to accompany you today."
Yuanyangfang's heart skipped a beat, her beautiful cheeks were as red as clouds, she gently pulled away her bare hands and said, "The others are still there."
Xiren looked at the intimate scene between the two, feeling envious and sad at the same time. With a smile on his face, he said, "You don't have to worry about me, I'm going outside."
After saying that, he got up, but his back looked somewhat lonely.
Seeing the attacker leaving, Yuanyang Fangxin became more and more shy. She turned her head and said angrily: "I will really be too embarrassed to see anyone later."
There is also a little sweetness in my heart. In front of my best friend, being so intimately pampered, even if I have a heart of gold, I can't help but feel joy in my heart.
Jia Heng held the tall girl in his arms, reached into his clothes, gently caught the mandarin duck, and joked with a smile: "You grew up together, will she still laugh at you?"
In the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, when he was making out with Daiyu, Xiren could not help but see him, and even had a sneak peek at the more erotic scenes.
Of course, Xiren is really quiet and has never shown any abnormality.
After being teased by Jia Heng, Yuanyang became weak and breathless, with a mixture of shyness and joy in her eyes. She quickly held Jia Heng's hand that was inserted into her dress and said shyly: "Husband, please stop making trouble, please... please spare me." "
If this were to happen to her here, she would really have no shame in serving the old lady anymore.
Listening to the girl's desperate begging for mercy, Jia Heng looked at the girl with charming and charming eyes. He could already touch the girl's overflowing thoughts. He chuckled and said: "When you are free in the next two days, go to the garden." How about looking for me in Qichiyuan? I usually go back to rest at night."
One of Lan Xi still needs to develop a relationship, and the other is still young and cannot bear to fight. Yuanyang can go over and check for leaks and make up for them.
Yuanyang's cheeks were red with embarrassment, his eyebrows were crooked, and he hummed like a mosquito.
Jia Heng smiled and said, "Okay, let's do this for today. It's getting late."
If it weren't for the trouble around Jia Mu's courtyard, he and Yuanyang wouldn't just be complaining about their lovesickness on the pipa string.
After saying that, he got up, left the wing, looked at the attacker, and said, "Let's go to the Xiaoxiang Pavilion."
The attacker responded and returned to the Grand View Garden.
At that time, it was getting close to dusk, and the originally hot summer air was gradually receding. A cool breeze suddenly began to blow up. The wisteria branches and leaves on the white walls and jade trees on both sides swayed gently in the wind. From time to time, butterflies came and went in red or yellow colors. Between the little flowers, we work hard to collect honey.
Jia Heng and Xi Ren walked along the corridor and casually asked Xi Ren about Daiyu's diet and daily life.
Xiren said softly: "Uncle Heng, the girl is acting normally these days."
Jia Heng looked at the girl, nodded and said, "Xiren, you have been following Sister Lin for more than a year, and you have worked hard during this time."
Qing is Dai Ying, Xi is Chai Fu.
Xiren has served Daiyu with all his heart over the past year, because Xiren has a shrewd and considerate nature, which saves Daiyu a lot of worry.
Whether it was ordinary interpersonal relationships between sisters, or birthdays with the wives and grandmothers of Ning Rong and Ning Rong, Xiren could help remind and manage them.
"Uncle." Hearing this, Xiren's heart trembled. He turned to look at the young man and mustered up the courage to ask, "Is Uncle Heng going to chase me away?"
Jia Heng frowned and said, "Hao Duanduan, why are you driving you away?"
How do these all come together?
Xiren Yuyan turned aside, pursed her pink lips, and said softly: "Even if the uncle doesn't ask me to leave, I will still go back. Recently, my brother and I have been discussing and plan to redeem me and get married. I am thinking about it." Do you want to accept it or not?"
I don't know why, but I suddenly wanted to mention this matter to the Duke.
Jia Heng was silent for a moment, then asked: "Why does your family ask you to go back at this time?"
I remember that in the original work, there was such an incident, and then the attacker tried Baoyu, and got Baoyu's promise, but not long after, he was cheated by Baoyu.
The second is later.
