The dinner last night didn't last very late.
Before dawn, Jia Huiluda and the others put on their armor again.
They had to leave the city in time for the opening of the city gate, take their troops to Fengtian Gate to be inspected by the Second Saints, and then set off from Desheng Gate.
Walking along the corridor to the entrance hall of the front yard, I saw the old lady, Jia She and others already waiting in the hall.
When the children of the family go off to war, everyone in the family, young and old, regardless of their rank, comes to see them off.
The old lady was wearing the make-up of the Duke of Imperial Order, and Mrs. Xing was also wearing the same make-up of the First Grade. Only Mrs. Wang was a bit shabby, but she was also wearing the pleasant make-up of the Fifth Grade, standing there with an expressionless face.
The old lady wears a gold-decorated Zhai crown on her head, a scarlet python robe underneath, a true red double-breasted straight-collared big-sleeved blouse, a golden ruffled Zhai pattern embroidered with golden phoenixes, and a tooth wat in her hand.
The old lady looked at Jia Hui, who was walking in armor, with a complicated face, as if she overlapped with the figures of his father-in-law and husband.
Unconsciously, she glanced at Jia She and saw him holding on to the railing, yawning and rubbing his eyes. Jia Mu couldn't help feeling disgusted.
Four generations of your ancestors and grandchildren are the only one who has no future!
"Grandma, my grandson is going to war." Jia Hui also saw that her family had been waiting here for a long time, so she quickly took a few steps and supported Jia's mother.
Jia Mu looked at Jia Hui, whose facial features looked more and more like her husband, and felt a little dazed.
If Baoyu's face shape and facial features are similar to Jia Daishan's, then Jia Hui's eyebrows and temperament are just as firm and heroic.
"Okay, good boy, Yuanyang, come here and bring me the headscarf." Jia Mu came back to her senses, put down the tooth wand in her hand, and gently stroked Jia Hui's face.
Yuanyang brought the wooden tray, and Jia Mu picked up the red scarf on the tray. When Jia Hui saw this, she quickly lowered her head.
The bun that had been taken care of long ago and was combed close to the scalp and back was wrapped in a bright red scarf. Mother Jia carefully tied the scarf tightly and carefully folded the edge of the scarf little by little. Folded back.
"You must take good care of yourself." Jia Mu gently told Jia Hui, just like she had impatiently told Jia Daishan more than ten years ago.
Jia Hui also responded one by one.
After saying that, Jia Mu turned to look at Ruda.
Observing his words and deeds yesterday, you can tell that the bearded man in front of you is a man who hates evil, is brave and strategic, and is both coarse and fine. It is no wonder that his grandson has a close relationship with him.
"General Lu, the old woman's grandson is naughty, so please bear with me."
Luda, who was standing aside, didn't expect to have anything to do of his own, so he quickly leaned over to answer.
"Old lady, I think this junior and Brother Hui are of the same mind and will definitely support each other."
Jia Mu praised her repeatedly, then turned sideways and looked behind her.
"There is an old woman at home. Brother Hui, don't let the Jia family fall into disgrace, as well as the reputation of your grandfather, your great ancestor!"
Jia Hui bowed solemnly.
"Yes, my grandson is gone."
Jia Hui turned around and walked away without looking back. Ruda also followed Jia Hui, and the soldiers on the side also followed closely with their respective pockets.
The brothers of the same generation bowed and bowed, and the sisters all bowed.
All the servants and maids bowed to the ground and worshiped.
After exiting the Yimen gate, Lai Da had already prepared his horse, stepped on the horse stone, got on his horse, and left without looking back.
. . . . . .
They are all old soldiers, and the deputies of each battalion have already been ready to go. Only the generals who came to Beijing to be awarded the title yesterday are here.
Lin Chong and the others had already prepared the three thousand households directly under Jia Hui. At the moment of sunrise, the commanders of each battalion also arrived.
In this expedition, all three thousand battalions from the Beijing camp were dispatched, as well as six large regiments and battalions, plus five thousand from the Chinese army, Jia Hui's three thousand and two thousand craftsmen directly under his command, a total of one hundred thousand people.
The remaining border towns also had 10,000 people and several hundred craftsmen sent out for the expedition, totaling over 100,000.
The two parties gathered together, totaling 200,000 people!
The army's food and grass had already been transported to Huaihuang Town outside Zhangjiakou.
The chiefs of various departments had already gathered at the school grounds, waiting for the arrival of Marshal Yun Yu.
The regiment camps dispatched from the Beijing camp this time are divided into six groups: Fenwu, Yaowu, Lianwu, Show of Wushu, Yangwei and Zhenwei.
They greeted each other and gathered together in twos and threes to chat.
As soon as Yun Yu arrived, he quickly lined up the queue.
The generals of each department who had already counted the teams also reported the situation to Yun Yu, and Yun Yu gave the order to go into the city to be reviewed!
Jia Hui also returned to the cavalry formation. After all the infantry set off, it was the cavalry.
. . . . . .
After a long review, Jia Hui led the cavalry out of Desheng Gate.
Jia Hui looked at the green silk hair in her hand that exuded a wisp of floral fragrance, and laughed.
When he went out, he felt a little disappointed because his fiancée didn't come to see him, but when the boy from the Li family who was standing on the roadside waving to him led him to the small pavilion outside Desheng Gate, all the sullenness disappeared.
Li Wan, wearing a light blue long coat, stood in front of Jia Hui refreshingly.
They looked at each other speechlessly.
"Stop working so hard and take good care of yourself." Li Wan spoke.
"Well, when I come back, our Marquis Mansion in Luoyang will almost be completed, and I will marry you then."
"Bah, bah, don't say such unlucky words..."
"Ominous?"
"It's like this in the storybook. A man will marry a woman when he comes back. Basically..." Li Wan realized that he had said the wrong thing and quickly covered his mouth.
"Haha, it's just what's written in the storybook, it doesn't matter, your husband has brought harm to the legacy for thousands of years!"
"You are not allowed to say that about yourself!"
The two fell silent again.
"I'm serious, we will get married when we come back!"
"Um."
Li Wan's cheeks turned red. He thought of something and took out a pair of scissors from his side.
After stroking her waist-length hair, she cut off a piece of black hair, tied it tightly with a red rope, and put it in a blue sachet.
"I have nothing to give, this is for you."
Jia Hui took the sachet and hung it on his waist solemnly.
"Don't worry, this time I'm just learning how to fight in the Chinese Army. I won't die!"
"That's good. It's getting late and I have to go back." Li Wan nodded.
Jia Hui took Li Wan's delicate hand and pulled her down the slope.
Li Wan struggled symbolically, then covered his face with a handkerchief and blushed, and followed Jia Hui obediently.
The young man of the Li family leaned on the carriage and saw his uncle and the young lady coming down the mountain. He quickly put down the ladder, and the maid Suyun in the carriage also got off the carriage.
Watching Su Yun help Li Wan get into the car, Jia Hui stepped on the stone and got on his horse and rushed towards the large army. Jia Hui's soldiers saluted the future mistress and got on their horses to chase after Jia Hui. .
. . . . . .
Since it was on their own territory, there was no need to send out scouts to investigate.
Yes, Ye Bushou and other scouts were also in the cavalry formation.
They will not be dispatched until the army arrives at Huaihuang Town.
After starting from Deshengmen, we headed northwest to Changping, passed Juyongguan, crossed the Badaling Great Wall, and went westward along the official road, passing through Huailai and Xuanhua, and finally arrived at Zhangjiakou.
The army only rested briefly outside the city for two days. They finally checked the supplies they carried with them. If they were missing anything, they quickly went to the city to buy it. Once they entered the grassland, they had no chance.
After two days, Yun Yu gave the order to enter the grassland!
. . . . . .
Since the Meng Yuan Dynasty was driven out of the Central Plains a hundred years ago, the Khan Court also moved to Shangdu.
However, due to Da Qi's several Northern Expeditions and repeated attacks on Shangdu City, the Great Khans abandoned this dilapidated city and moved the capital to Abahanar, changing its name to Xilinhot.
The atmosphere in the golden tent was very dull.
Bilig Khan looked at the information in his hand with a gloomy expression.
Although the Khan Court has gone through more than a dozen Northern Expeditions by the Qi people, it is relatively weak. Although the Khan Court cannot defeat the Qi people and the Oirat in the west, it is still very easy to defeat the newly established Mobei Khalkha.
For example, Mantulu's Baerhu tribe has defeated Nuonuohe's Chechen tribe, forcing the Chechen tribe to move north to Yuerhai.
But this news of victory could not cover up another terrifying thing.
Qi Ren is here again!
Tu Mengken is like a dog. It's not good to call anyone. You call him Qi Ren. Don’t you know that the old emperor’s morals are as low as the depth of the fishing sea?
When the Khan Court is defeated, will you still be able to enjoy your fruit?
Bilige Khan took a long breath and slowly leaned back in the chair.
Forget it, the country people are ignorant and don't know that the world is dangerous, so they should focus on how to fight Qi Jun without losing too badly.
"Great Khan, now the Qi army is approaching. The rebel Nuonuohe from the Chechen tribe behind has been defeated by Mandu Luhuntaiji. The old minister suggested that Manduluhuntaiji's troops be mobilized south to resist the Qi people."
The gray-haired Ordos Hutai Ji Ombu Chuhuer stepped forward.
The year before last, half of the small Tucheng that Tumut had worked hard to build was raided by Yulin General Soldier You Gui and burned down. People, horses and livestock suffered heavy losses, and the embarrassed Tumut tribe had no choice but to move north.
For Ombu Chuhu'er, the most important thing is to resist the Qi people's attack and find every opportunity to avenge the people. As for Khalkha? After all, it’s a vast Gobi desert, not your own pasture. It doesn’t matter if you have it or not.
"No, Great Khan, the Qi people are tyrannical, and starting a war rashly will only increase casualties. When the time comes, the Khalkha rebels and the Qi people join forces, our Yuan Dynasty will be attacked from both sides, and we will definitely suffer heavy losses. What will Khalkha do? I know, but Oirat is going to do something. How can we withstand heavy losses? I hope the Great Khan will think twice!" Ordos Hutai Jibolohu quickly stopped him.
He was one of those who had been knocked out of spirit by the Qi army. Over the past hundred years, they had suffered more defeats than wins during more than a dozen Northern Expeditions, which had long since made some tribal leaders who dreamed of the Great Yuan realize the reality.
"Don't fight? Then how can you defeat the enemy? Just rely on your words?" Ombu Chuhu'er was a little angry and asked Bo Luohu.
"Then you can guarantee that Mantulu will be able to stop Qi Ren when he comes back?"
Bo Luo suddenly couldn't tolerate him and asked instead.
"That's better than you not resisting!" Ombu Chuhu'er looked at Boluohu with a sarcastic face.
"You!" Bo Luohu held the handle of the steel knife in his hand and glared at Ombu Chuhu'er.
"Okay, let me think about it for a while." Bilig Khan spoke. After all, he was still the nominal Great Khan of the entire Mongol army, and his majesty was still useful in the various ministries.
Bilig Khan was also troubled.
If we continue to fight against Khalkha, we will not be able to win it in a short time. In addition, the Qi people came from the south, and the remaining army of the Khan Court is basically like an egg hitting a stone.
But how about sending troops back to fight the Qi people...
Not to mention whether they can survive the fight, are they really willing to spit out the people, livestock and new pastures they have eaten?
"Hey, let's send someone to talk first. I'm tired, so retreat."
Bilige Khan waved his hand impatiently. His ministers had different expressions, but they still followed the Khan's order and withdrew from the military tent.
When he was young, Bilig Khan was also very aggressive and defeated Oirat's attacks several times. He was so proud that he once dismissed the tribes who were unwilling to fight with the Qi people, thinking that they were all cowards.
When Bilige Khan was preparing to lead his people south to reappear in the Yuan Dynasty, he finally understood why he, Abu, and others became so decadent.
Three hundred thousand Qi troops attacked Shangdu City and trampled Bilge Khan's pride to pieces. From then on, Bilge Khan also lay down like the previous sweaters.
Mengwu is really no longer what he used to be, so let him be as he likes!
After realizing his own powerlessness, Bilig Khan also became like his father.
Fat has grown on his angular face, the muscles in his arms that can draw a stiff bow have become flabby, and his thighs are growing...
Just cherish every day you live!
But the guilt of losing his ambition and the suffocating power of Daqi always weighed on Bilige Khan.
In the dead of night, he often regretted not giving up his throne to his younger brother.
"well…"
Rubbing his temples, Bilige Khan cheered up again. His tribe and his Great Yuan still needed him.
. . . . . .
Go to the capital city.
Ten years ago, after the Qi army captured Xanadu, it did not change its name.
After simple repairs, Xanadu in the Yuan Dynasty became a military city and a bridgehead for the Qi army to fight north. Five thousand elite troops were stationed there all year round.
Ten days after leaving Huaihuang Town, 200,000 troops marched to the capital city.
"You dare to beat me up, you bastard!" Khalkha Commander Elek's left eye was black, and he glared angrily at the Monan Commander opposite him, then he rushed forward and collided with him.
"Stop it! Come on, lock them up!" Yun Yu had been fighting for so many years, and this was the first time he saw envoys from both sides engaging in hand-to-hand combat in his tent in broad daylight.
The guards hurriedly stepped forward, and four people held down one of them. Each of them grabbed an arm and foot and was carried out of the tent.
After the yelling and cursing disappeared, Yun Yu glanced at Monan's paperwork.
"Oh, you're just thinking too much." Yun Yu threw the paperwork on the table and shouted.
"Open mutual markets? They will set all prices, return them to the upper capital, and admit that the entire grassland belongs to the Great Yuan Khan? There are even Sui coins? Who is asking for whom?"
Yun Yu looked at the contents of the document in surprise.
"Commander, that Monan bully is too much! We and the cavalry army in the capital camp can't swallow this breath. Commander, give the order quickly! We will capture Naoshizi Khan alive before your majesty!" Jia Hui spoke, saying that now he You can kill that Bilige Khan.
After listening to Jia Hui's words, the generals on the side also began to clamor to chop off Bilige Khan's head. For a moment, the crowd was furious. They wanted to kill Xilin Gol now, break the city tomorrow, and return to Beijing the day after.
"Okay, everyone, be silent. This kind of document seems to be perfunctory to us at first glance. It is very insincere. It will definitely require repeated frustration!"
Marshal Yun Yu's words quickly calmed everyone's anger.
"Commander, how should we fight?" Feng Mao, the admiral of the Xianwu Camp, stood up and said.
"Why do I have a draft in mind, and I have to wait for Ye Bu Shu to come back before revising it. Okay, I have been on the road for ten days, and my brothers are all tired. Ye Bu Shu may come back at any time, so take the time to rest and continue. There are many tough battles to be fought down here, so please go back." Yun Yu stood up and said to everyone.
"Yes, I won't disturb the commander-in-chief!" The generals also stood up and prepared to leave.
"By the way, Jinyu stays."
"Yes!"
