Guo Ning's words were very easy, just like asking for tea and dinner after getting up early.
The surrounding soldiers were stunned when they heard this order. There was a small school boy nearby who was hanging his armor on his shoulders, and the strength in his hands suddenly became chaotic. The armor fell and hit the instep with a bang, causing him to cry out in pain.
Some of the soldiers a little further away heard Guo Ning's words clearly, but some didn't. Many of them were busy with what they were doing, but now they stopped and whispered.
"Did you hear that?"
"It seems that we are going to which city gate in Zhongdu?"
"But isn't Zhongdu City already in chaos? Last night, the scouts reported that the Mongols had entered the city. With such a momentum, we don't know how many enemies there are. Let's just go through like this. Isn't it? Isn't it..."
Many soldiers looked at each other and finally swallowed the word "send to death".
In a team of one thousand people, two to three hundred people whispered, and their voices could not be suppressed. Shi Tianni and other generals were immediately embarrassed, but they themselves also had doubts.
With such doubts, the cavalrymen became somewhat silent while eating breakfast. Almost no one was laughing or joking. Instead, they kept exchanging glances and whispering.
Guo Ning seemed to be gone, minding his own meal.
It has to be said that the hidden strength of the Yongqing Historian on Zhongdu Road is extraordinary. Thousands of cavalry went north from Triangle Lake, traveling more than a hundred miles day and night. Every time a Mongolian sentry would pass by along the way, Shi Tianni would always be like a prophet and lead the team to a position that was just out of the way.
Guo Ning asked himself that he was very familiar with the Mongols, but he couldn't do it at all. It is impossible to achieve this level just by understanding the surrounding geography. Apparently Shi Tianni's father, Shi Bingzhi, who had worked closely with Mu Huali, had been active in the Mongolian army for two years and gained a lot.
While these more than a thousand cavalry were galloping, the Yongqing historians could still ensure the supply of food. They ate well every day, including steamed buns, scones and pickles. This makes people feel more sincere.
Guo Ning ate and drank voraciously. He ate two steamed buns and three pancakes with half a bowl of pickles, and felt his stomach.
Seeing that he was getting up and about to mount his horse, Shi Tianni and others came over again.
"Ahem, envoy."
"Haha, please talk to Brother Hefu if you have something to say."
"Last night we also dispatched manpower to investigate the situation in Zhongdu. Shuhu Gaoqi has rebelled, and Mu Huali has led his army into the city. There are at least 30,000 to 50,000 people driven by the Mongols in the city right now!"
Guo Ning laughed: "I know."
It is normal for everyone in front of me to have such doubts. Guo Ning was not surprised at all.
After the battle in Dianbei, Bazhou Triangle, the Ding Navy Headquarters followed its usual practice of reviewing the battle command process overnight and arranging subsequent troop deployment. Specific figures on the results and casualties have not yet been released, but the heavy casualties can already be seen from the number of new officers participating in the military meeting.
The number of Dinghai troops going north this time is not large, but they are all elite soldiers, so the ratio of officers to veterans is extremely high. There were twenty officers at the rank of commander in the army, but only thirteen participated in the military meeting that night. Of the seven people who didn't come, two were seriously injured and it was unclear whether they would survive, and five had died on the battlefield.
Among them, there was one under Wang Shixian's command, and the person who came to the meeting was a young lieutenant. All because the commander, deputy commander, and subordinates of the unit would all be killed in the battle, and then it was the turn of the lieutenant who led thirty or fifty troops to be promoted to the front line.
Paying such a heavy price, in exchange for a devastating blow to Genghis Khan's Qixue army, and in exchange for the invincible Genghis Khan no longer being able to boast of invincibility, it was worth it.
But the navy itself cannot continue to fight.
Even if we don't talk about the loss of military strength, soldiers are still human beings, not made of iron. Their energy and physical strength have limits. Several days of fighting, marching in a hurry, and fighting again had completely exhausted everything the soldiers could provide. After the victory was completely determined, most of the soldiers collapsed on the ground, as exhausted as dead people. Not only were they unable to fight, they almost had no strength to move their fingers.
In fact, on the day and the next day after the battle, almost all the tasks of cleaning the battlefield, rescuing the wounded, and arranging campsites were carried out by the rebels who rushed from all over to gather after hearing the news of the victory.
Guo Ning was very appreciative of these rebel soldiers who saw the situation clearly in time and walked towards a bright road. So he quickly proposed that he needed the help of the rebels to advance the subsequent war.
The rebel leaders were all enthusiastic about this.
The Kingdom of Jin and Mongolia have been fighting back and forth for so many years, turning thousands of miles of frontiers and hinterlands into battlefields. The battlefield where this giant beast fights has so far not been a place where many rural soldiers, broken soldiers or even subordinate soldiers can directly use it. They are more like hyenas, content to cling to the strong and share the remaining flesh and blood on the fallen corpses of the weak.
Now that Ding Haijun is the strong one, Guo Ning naturally has the support of countless people. As a strong man, isn't it natural for Guo Ning to provide everyone with some benefits?
So Guo Ning gave an order, and the leaders of the subordinate armies gathered in the north of Sanjiaodian gathered a thousand cavalry. Several particularly active rebel leaders contributed all the subordinate knights around them. For example, Shi Tianni, Yelu Kechoubar, Li Shouzheng and others, their own wings are not weak, but they all had the stain of following the Mongols before. Now they are even more loyal and loyal, patting their chests and wanting to follow Guo Xuan Even if you go through fire and water, you will not be afraid.
In fact, this kind of statement cannot be taken seriously, and these people will not easily go through life and death for Ding Haijun. But the current Dinghai navy really needs their support.
As Dajin weakened, more and more forces emerged in various places and became stronger and stronger. Although the Dinghai Navy is growing rapidly, these forces are also showing their own special abilities and have grown to a point that cannot be ignored.
For example, Shi Tianni, Yelu Kechou Baer, Li Shouzheng, and even Shi Tianying, Xuetala Hai and others who fought with the Dinghai Navy in Zhigu Village, all of them have the capital of being a hero in troubled times. These people can easily make thousands of people obey from Zhending, Hebei Province, to Linhuang Mansion with just one order.
With their help, Ding Haijun was even more powerful. Taking advantage of the majesty of defeating Genghis Khan, he could instantly sweep across the vast territory and achieve hegemony.
But these people are able to gain a foothold in troubled times, but they are by no means a fuel-efficient lamp. Although Shi Tianni is gentle and polite, Yelu Keqiu Baer, Chen Xiong Lingran, and Li Shouzheng are also full of martial arts, in fact, all of them are cruel and cunning people, let alone talk about loyalty with them.
Guo Ning has a keen eye on the thoughts of these people; he is even more familiar with their temperaments. Because he himself was born as a hero in the wilderness, if not for chance, the best future for him and his generals would be no different from that of the rebel leaders in front of him.
Guo Ning understood that if he really wanted to subdue them, it would not only be difficult to suddenly restrict them by the rules of the navy while their strength was still there, but it would also easily lead to rebellion. Even if Genghis Khan entered the Central Plains, he would only drive them instead of completely annexing them.
But what Guo Ning thought was different from Genghis Khan. What he wants to do is not to be the leader of a military alliance, but to be the leader of a solid political power! So Guo Ning wants to really surrender them!
During the two days when he sent his army north from Bazhou, he did not stay in the camp of his own guards, but in the camp of these rebels. It was as if he lived with these people day and night without any defense, and they were like brothers. This is true to the heart. means in. Shi Tianni and others were very moved by this, and gathered around Guo Ning to flatter him every day. This is the wisdom of a man who knows the current affairs and is a hero.
But Guo Ning's methods don't stop there.
To truly conquer these characters, we must let them admire them from the bottom of their hearts, and let them truly understand that Changzhou Guo Ning is much stronger than any of them!
Guo Ning put his legs on the horse's stirrup, urged the horse forward a few steps, and turned back with a smile: "Quickly go. Let's go to Fengyi Gate, kill Shuhu Gaoqi and Mu Huali, and capture Zhongdu."
Shi Tianni's expression changed slightly, and then he said: "I'll go with the envoy!"
That's Zhongdu City! There are thousands of Mongols and tens of thousands of rebels in the city! What is the use of our thousands of cavalry? If the elite headquarters of the Ding Navy comes here, it will be fine. Who among us doesn't know the details of our own family? Can these thousands of people be able to fight a tough battle?
Yelu Kechoubal and Li Shouzheng stuffed a series of questions back into their stomachs.
They were silent for a while. Looking at Shi Tian who was riding his horse and following Guo Zhai, he seemed to be indifferent, but in the end Renjin made up his mind.
That’s all, wealth is found in danger!
