Guo Ning is very tired.
So he just sat down and rested under the nine-pin white paper, and let the soldiers crowd around him to relieve his stomach and bandage his wounds.
With him as the center, the wounded and the backbone civil and military personnel of the Ding Navy also gathered one after another.
The first one to arrive was Zhang Hui. Guo Ning's plan to counterattack the Mongolian army here was secretly communicated to several capable commanders in advance, in addition to the general manager. As a powerful general under Wang Shixian, Zhang Hui was specially instructed to lead his elite troops as the fourth wave of troops rushing towards the Mongolian army headquarters.
According to Guo Ning's judgment, Zhang Hui's attack was likely to determine the outcome. Unfortunately, when it came time to fight, Guo Ning's attack in the front was too fierce, and Zhang Hui chased all the way and failed to catch up; Wang Shixian's troops in the back were quickly thrown away by the Mongolian cavalry, and he could only lead his troops to turn around and stop them.
In this kind of life-or-death bloody battle, the coach personally takes the lead. As a result, the main force scheduled to support is missing. How can it be done? Others only think that Guo Ning is brave, but Zhang Hui knows that his performance in the battle is mediocre.
At this moment, he arrived with blood on his head and body, panting, and immediately knelt down to apologize.
Guo Ning stared at him coldly, neither speaking nor telling him to get up. After a while, he said slowly: "After all, we have won this battle. If the war had gone badly, I, Mr. Guo, would have been killed long ago, and you wouldn't have anyone to apologize to."

If this was a joke, it would just be a joke. If there was some real meaning hidden in it, Zhang Hui would simply not be able to stay in the navy. He gritted his teeth, wanting to blame himself severely, and ask Guo Ning to arrange a meal with a military stick immediately, or even behead him.
Sure enough, Guo Ning shouted: "The situation on the battlefield is ever-changing, and I am well aware of it. But you move too slowly, which makes me suffer! You know the military discipline. Just get a meal and do it like this!"
Zhang Hui didn't dare to raise his head: "Yes, yes!"
Then Guo Ning sighed again: "Come up, come up! I can't reach it!"
Zhang Hui took two steps forward on his knees. Guo Ning reached behind his shoulder and touched it. With a slight exertion, he pulled out a small arrow cluster embedded under his shoulder blade.
Zhang Hui screamed in pain.
"The medical officers in your department are all unreliable! You are also careless! Don't you feel the pain?" Guo Ning cursed and summoned his own doctor to bandage and apply medicine to Zhang Hui. While Meng Cong was busy, Guo Ning continued: "However, you did a great job in stopping the enemy cavalry from pursuing them. It's still a great achievement! I've also remembered this! Seeing that you are jumping around and very energetic now, then go and search the various departments quickly. My soldiers, don’t hang around in front of me!”
Zhang Hui laughed a few times and left quickly.
After a while, Wang Shixian, Yiji Chucai and others arrived.
Guo Ning only nodded slightly to Wang Shixian: "Lao Wang, thank you for your hard work! Come and drink water."
The attendant brought the water, and Wang Shixian picked up the tea bowl and drank it all in one gulp: "Many soldiers died in the battle, so I have to supply them. The soldiers should also be given the pension as soon as possible."
"rest assured."
And Yi La Chucai smiled bitterly: "Envoy, we were trying to figure out whether the time had come, but we still had no results. Then you suddenly said that you had an idea that could get rid of the Mongols, and then turned to the generals to discuss it... Was this the idea that was mentioned at that time?"
"Exactly, that's a good idea. Right?"
Yi La Chucai couldn't help but raise his voice a little bit and complained: "Nai He's soldiers suffered heavy casualties! Nai He Xuan's family is in danger, it is almost inevitable!"
Guo Ning remained silent.
At this time, more and more generals arrived from all over the battlefield. Everyone gathered around Guo Ning, looking at him and the white paper behind him, with reverence on everyone's face. Zhang Shengzhi was even more straightforward. He knelt down on his knees and performed the kowtow ceremony to pay homage to his lord.
A few years ago, when the soldiers were struggling to survive in Tangluo, Hebei Province, living as humble as insects and ants, who would have thought that Guo Ning would suddenly rise up, occupy a vast territory, and control millions of soldiers and civilians? Who would have thought that on the edge of Tangluo in Hebei, Guo Ning could defeat the Mongolian Xue army in one battle and almost capture Genghis Khan?
This victory was an explosive victory, a victory that could shock the world. From now on, everyone in the entire north will know that Ding Haijun has far more force than the imperial court and is the only regime that can defeat the Mongolian army head-on; Changzhou Guo Ning is far more powerful than anyone in the Dajin court Military leader.
Previously, the Ding Navy relied on the power of the army to directly control a large amount of land, and then benefited from maritime trade, which has become an outlier in the Kingdom of Jin. Their identity as rebels was spread everywhere, but the court itself turned a blind eye and only wanted temporary stability.
After this victory, Ding Haijun's momentum increased more than ten times, not to mention the Jurchen court.
On a smaller scale, they are expanding along the trend and will soon be able to join Hebei, or at least six states along the Cao River. As a result, Ding Haijun was no longer like a local political power within the Kingdom of Jin, but was able to form its own country, just like the princes at the end of the Han and Tang Dynasties.
Speaking more broadly, the princes are also divided into three, six or nine levels in terms of their strength and ambition. Who knows which level Guo Ning will be? If he were Cao Cao at the end of the Han Dynasty or Zhu Wen at the end of the Tang Dynasty, what kind of goals would be ahead of him on the road to becoming a prince?
"Proclaimer! Proclaimer!"
Many people from far and near looked at Guo Ning, greeted him, and paid homage solemnly.
Guo Ning waved to them, which immediately aroused cheers from more people.
Guo Ning looked at Yiza Chucai again: "I won this match."
Yiza Chucai smiled helplessly. Although he complained a little, he could not hide his shock at the battle, his admiration for Guo Ning, and his strong expectation for the fruits of victory after the war, so he also bowed down.
Guo Ning signaled everyone to get up quickly and have a good rest. He changed into a clean military uniform, got on his horse, and began to patrol the battlefield.
"The messenger is here!"
In the eyes of the soldiers, Guo Ning was riding a tall horse and his figure was even more majestic.
When he raised his hand to the soldiers on horseback, everyone's emotions suddenly released. The soldiers held their weapons tightly in their hands and shouted desperately.
The strength of the Ding Navy expanded rapidly. After Guo Ning took control of Shandong East Road, except for Guo Ning's headquarters stationed in Yidu, other departments were stationed in big cities and key passes. Within a few months, many people could not see Guo Ning at all. Ning's figure. Before this battle, the soldiers disguised themselves as a baggage team and marched. Guo Ning moved with everyone every day. Although everyone saw it, they did not disturb him.
The soldiers all knew that Guo Ning was born in the military and always spared no effort in taking care of his subordinates. The soldiers also had deep feelings for him. In this kind of emotion, in addition to gratitude after receiving a favor, it is more about respect, trust and admiration. This kind of emotion is based on the experience of warriors living and dying together, galloping on the battlefield together, and is more than the gratitude brought by small favors. Stronger and deeper.
At this moment, standing on the victorious battlefield, everyone is increasingly convinced that Guo Ning is a well-deserved leader, an invincible commander, and a person who can bring a new future to everyone!
Deafening cheers rose in the wilderness, as if a huge vortex suddenly appeared, attracting everything around it.
To the east of the battlefield, the leader of the Khitan army, Yelu Kechoubal, originally led his troops to station at Liukou, responsible for blocking the westward march of Chen Ran's troops. After Chen Ran broke through the defense line with his fleet, he led more than a thousand fine cavalry in pursuit.
Yelu Kechoubar was an important member of the Mongolian army on the Beijing Road. His tribe controlled the pastures from Huihe to Wuping. He was also the deputy of the famous general Wu Gusun Wutun of the Jin Kingdom and had rich battlefield experience.
At this time, the veteran was four or five miles away, quietly listening to the continuous cheers on the battlefield, and then said to his subordinates: "You guys wait here, don't make any noise. I'm going to see Guo Ning."
To the south of the battlefield, Heshi Liepu Ladu suddenly reined in his horse.
He said to his companions in a low mood: "There is no way back to Yijin Pass!"
"What did the general mean?"
"The people inside and outside the city will definitely be frightened once they know that Guo Ning defeated Genghis Khan. As long as Guo Ning sends a small team and puts the heads of a few Mongolian nobles into the city to demonstrate, they will surrender immediately... No, no, say Maybe they are planning to surrender now."
"Then what should we do?" The companions were shocked.
"Let's go back to Jingzhou first. However, Jingzhou is probably not stable either. Once we get there, we can pack up the troops, supplies, and food, and then we go to Kaifeng Mansion in Nanjing."
There are also people on the west side of the battlefield.
That was a team of quite capable cavalry.
In front of the cavalry, there was a young boy riding on a horse. He said to the tall young man next to him: "Brother, if you don't show your sincerity now, when will you wait? This situation is obvious. Mongolian officials will never be able to do this again." Got it!"
The tall young man nodded calmly: "Tianze, you are right. It's just that I don't have a gift with me, so it's hard to meet each other."
"Take my horse, can't you? My horse is a good horse!" The child thought for a while: "If that doesn't work, why don't we offer up all the land in our hands?"
