Jia Cong also received the information sent back by Tiezhu and learned about Lao Nu's movements.
Now that he has joined the army, he can no longer run around.
Tell the special forces team member who sent the letter to go back and tell Tiezhu that while the old slave is not at home, he can find out the entire Hetuala, including the old slave's address, the addresses of each Baylor, and the situation of the garrison.
See if you can find the location of the old slave's treasure house. When the two sides start fighting, you can quietly lead someone into his lair to see if you can help him.
After seeing off the special forces team members, Jia Cong arranged for Zaldan to go to the tribe and send news to Borchi and Xu Hua.
Let them notify the Taijis in Khalkha in advance and make preparations in advance, so as not to be caught off guard by the old slaves and be defeated thousands of miles away.
This is not in Jia Cong's interests, nor is it in Da Chu's interests.
Let the Mongols gather their troops in advance, and the two sides will have a decisive battle. The more intense the fight, the better. It is best for both sides to suffer losses and die together.
This is what Jia Cong wants to see. Then he can use Wang Shun's cavalry team to do something.
He came to the Governor's Mansion and told He Shiyuan about the old slave's dispatch to Khalkha.
"Uncle Shi, the people I sent to gather information from the barbarians received news that the old slave is mobilizing troops to attack the Khalkha tribe. What should we do here?"
He Shiyuan stood up suddenly after hearing this and asked eagerly: "Xiannephew, is your news reliable? Is it wrong? How could the old slave suddenly attack Khalkha?"
Jia Cong said: "The news is absolutely reliable. Uncle Shi can rest assured. I heard that the envoy sent by Lao Nu to Khalkha was intercepted and killed by the Mongols. Among them was Lao Nu's son Mang Gur. Tai, my son has been killed, how can I not be angry?"
He Shiyuan sat back down again after hearing this. He knew that Jia Cong could not lie to him, and this matter was true.
Whether it is the Mongolian Khalkhas or the barbarian slaves, they are all enemies of Da Chu. It is most beneficial to Da Chu if the two families fight.
In the battle between the two clans, one's own side has little maneuverability, but Shenyang's side does have some opportunities.
He Shiyuan said: "This matter is of great importance. I will send someone to confirm it again and notify Shenyang. If it is true, it must be reported to the court.
We in Guangning should not have any chance to participate. We only need to send people to pay attention to the battlefields of both sides. Shenyang might have a chance. It also depends on what the court means. "
Jia Cong also understood this truth. For big strategies, you still have to listen to the imperial court. You can fight only when the imperial court allows you to fight. If the imperial court doesn't allow you to fight, you have to hold back.
Jia Cong also felt powerless about this and could only look for another opportunity.
If that doesn't work, just ask for orders to monitor the battlefields of both sides.
Although it is a bit dangerous, it is not a big deal to me. I have prepared clairvoyance, which is a monocular telescope, before I come.
You don't need to get too close to the battlefield to see the battlefield clearly.
When he came to Liaodong this time, Jia Cong gave Tiezhu and the three captains of the special forces a monocular telescope for each of them to use to observe the enemy's situation. Others did not know about this thing for the time being.
In this era, this clairvoyance can be regarded as a battlefield weapon.
You can easily observe the enemy's movements, know yourself and the enemy, and you can also detect in advance whether there is an ambush on the road ahead.
Seeing that He Shiyuan was busy, Jia Cong said goodbye and left.
The two sides haven't started fighting yet. When the fighting starts, I will find a way to get involved.
Jia Cong did not go to the military camp, but returned to his residence in Guangning.
Since Zhang Dakui arrived, he took over the training of the cavalry and even the daily chores in the military camp, completely liberating Jia Cong.
In addition to training with the team in the morning, I will not participate in the afternoon confrontation training.
Instead, he was sparring with Qingwen, Chunxia Qiudong and others in his mansion.
These soldiers, when there is no war, are still very leisurely. Apart from daily patrols and training, they basically have nothing else to do.
Jia Cong learned about it. The army in Guangning trains once every three days, and some even train once every five days.
There is no one like Jia Cong who trains every day.
No matter what others do, Jia Cong still goes his own way and insists on letting the cavalry train every day.
For no other reason than to kill more enemies and less of our own people when war comes.
In the blink of an eye, more than ten days passed.
These days, Zardan keeps bringing back the movements of Khalkha.
Taiji in Khalkha didn't quite believe it when he first received the news from Borchi, so he immediately sent someone to check it out.
After confirming the news, the Taijis of the five Khalkha tribes finally got together and prepared to gather 100,000 troops from the five tribes for a decisive battle with the old barbarian slaves.
The Borchi tribe also recruited three thousand soldiers and horses to go out with the army.
At this time, Lao Nu's leading troops, Daishan and Amin's troops as vanguards, had crossed the Liaohe River and entered the western part of the Liaohe River, and the small tribes along the way had also been wiped out.
The five Khalkha tribes have also gathered an army of 100,000 people, ready to wait and wait for the enemy to hit them and give them a fatal blow.
The war is about to break out.
At this moment, the order from the court finally arrived.
He Shiyuan summoned all the generals to the big tent and announced the military command.
"Everyone, the war between the Mongolian Khalkha and the barbarian slaves is inevitable. I believe everyone has heard about it. Today, we received an order from the military department, ordering us to wait for the opportunity to act based on the actual situation. What do you think? ?”
General Li Zuliang said: "General, the Khalkhas and the barbarians are our enemies. Let them fight dog-eat-dog. It is best to fight so that both sides will be injured and die together. We can just watch the fun."
"Yes, general, let them fight if they like. The harder they fight, the better. As long as they don't come to fight us, they can fight as much as they want. We just need to defend our territory."
"Both these two groups are very powerful and it is not advisable to get involved rashly. We just have to wait for their results."
Jia Cong finally saw that none of these generals wanted to fight, and they would not fight if they could.
He Shiyuan already knew everyone's attitude, so he was not too surprised. He turned to look at Jia Cong and asked, "Jia Cong, what do you think?"
"First Evolution"
In this environment, Jia Cong has no good solution. Everyone's thinking is actually relatively safe. Although he will not get credit, he will not make any mistakes. This is the way to be an official.
Although Jia Cong has some ideas, he is only suitable for acting alone. He cannot bring others together, and he does not want to stand on the opposite side of these people.
"General, I think the generals are right. It is not appropriate for us to get involved for the time being. When Khalkha and the old barbarian slaves are both injured in the fight, and the winner is decided, we will seize the opportunity to bite them. "
He Shiyuan nodded and said to his heart that he also wanted to wait until the two sides decided the winner before seeing if there was a chance.
"Then let's do what everyone wants. When the two sides decide the outcome, we will see if there is a chance. If there is no chance, forget it. If there is a chance, we will take the opportunity to gain some credit.
After you go down, prepare your own troops and horses for me, and train them more intensively, so as not to be embarrassed when you are pulled out. "
"I will obey the order!"
After the generals led away, Jia Cong stayed behind.
He Shiyuan smiled and said, "What? Do you have other ideas?"
Jia Cong said: "Uncle Shi, didn't the military command say that we can wait for opportunities? I would like to request an order to go out and monitor the battle between the two sides. Firstly, to gain insights, and secondly, to see if we can find any opportunities. "
He Shiyuan said with a serious face: "Although we have orders from the Ministry of War and can move freely, it is too dangerous for you to go out. Once discovered by the army, there will be almost no way to survive.
I don’t suggest you take risks. You are still young and there will be plenty of opportunities in the future. Why are you in such a hurry? "
Jia Cong smiled and said: "Uncle Shi, don't worry. Since I'm going, I have a way to save my life. If I want to leave, no one can leave me. Besides, I won't get too close. I'll find a hidden place to observe." Just one click will do.”
He Shiyuan pondered for a moment and said: "If you are really sure, then go ahead and take all your battalions with you. If anything happens, let them go up to you. You can find a way to escape. Remember, you only have a chance if you are alive." .”
I have to say that He Shiyuan is still very interesting to me, but I don't want too many people to know about some things about me, let alone He Shiyuan.
"Uncle Shi, with too many people, the target is too big to hide. I only need to bring the one hundred personal guards. With them here, even if I face ten times the number of soldiers and horses, I will be sure to escape easily. "
He Shiyuan asked doubtfully: "Are they really that powerful?"
Jia Cong smiled and said: "Uncle Shi, they are all armored and almost invulnerable. Compared with heavy cavalry, their horses are just without armor. Ordinary cavalry are no match at all."
Seeing that Jia Cong was resolute, He Shiyuan stopped trying to persuade him. He had done what he could do, and the rest was all up to him.
"Since you insist on insisting, then go ahead. All I can do is give you a certain degree of freedom. Once you go out, you can only rely on yourself. You must remember that you would rather have no credit than come back alive."
Jia Cong said solemnly: "Uncle Shi, don't worry, I will definitely come back alive."
Looking at Jia Cong's leaving figure, He Shiyuan shook his head. This kid is so stubborn and doesn't make people worry at all. I hope nothing happens to him.
······
Early the next morning, Jia Cong led a hundred personal guards and left Guangning, accompanied by a carriage.
The carriage has two horses, and they are two high-quality war horses, which does not affect the speed at all.
More than an hour later, Jia Cong led people to Wang Shun's camp.
After a short rest, he left a hundred people to guard the camp and led Wang Shun's cavalry team to set off again and entered the Mongolian prairie.
With Zaldan leading the way, more than two thousand cavalrymen galloped eastward and ran for more than two hundred miles before stopping.
Zaldan said: "General, twenty miles to the north from here is the main battlefield. Our team can only stay here to be safe. If we want to get closer, only a small group of troops will not be easily discovered."
Jia Cong nodded and said, "Let's rest here tonight. Wang Shun will send out scouts to check the surroundings, and send out a team of scout horses to investigate in the direction of the battlefield."
"Your Majesty's Order."
Wang Shun agreed and went down to make arrangements.
Qingwen said: "Third Master, do we really want to intervene in the war between the two sides?"
Jia Cong shook his head and smiled: "We are here to watch the battle, not to fight. Let them both fight to their heart's content. We are only spectators. When the winner and loser are equal, it is time for us to take action."
He turned to Zardan and said, "Go to Borchi's army and learn about the trends on the battlefield. Pay attention to safety on the way."
"General, don't worry. Everyone over there knows my subordinates, and everything will be fine. Borchi has also given his subordinates the position of patrol sentry, making it easier to enter and leave the camp. I will come back when there is definite news."
After speaking, he bowed his hands to Jia Cong and rode away.
This place happens to be south of a hill, so it's quite secluded.
The Mongols lived by grass, and they quickly cleared out a camp, set up tents, and set up fences around the perimeter.
Even if this is a temporary camp, if nothing unexpected happens, we will stay here for a while.
The next day, after Zaldan came back, he gave a general overview of the situation on the battlefield.
The two sides have fought several small-scale battles, and each has its own victory or defeat. It is not known when the decisive battle will take place.
Jia Cong decided to go and see for himself, taking Qingwen, Chun Xia Qiu Dong, and Li Hu with him. Zaldan led the eight of them towards the battlefield.
Several people stopped five miles away from the battlefield, chose a high ground, hid their horses, and looked at the battlefield with clairvoyance.
I saw that the camps of the two sides were about five kilometers apart, with flags fluttering and swords and guns standing everywhere.
There are two teams of cavalry facing each other on the battlefield. Looking at the scale, each side has no less than 5,000 men and horses, and they are less than a kilometer apart.
At this moment, the war drums sounded.
"Winter, winter, winter, winter, winter..."
As the war drums sounded, the cavalry camps on both sides began to move, slowly moving towards each other, and they were about to charge.
The cavalry on both sides began to trot, gradually getting faster and faster, rushing towards each other like a tide.
The "rumbling" sound of horse hooves was deafening, causing the earth to tremble, and the dust kicked up by the galloping horses flew everywhere, blocking the sky and the sun.
After only a dozen breaths, the two groups of people and horses collided with each other. In an instant, a burst of people fell on their backs, horses neighed, and screams resounded on the battlefield.
The people at the rear stepped on the corpses of the people in front and continued to charge forward. They rushed into the enemy's formation selflessly. One by one, they rushed forward, brandishing their swords, and slashed at the enemies in front. When one fell, the other jumped up.
Many soldiers were injured in many places. The moment they fell, they stabbed the enemy with their swords.
The teams from both sides gradually fell into a stalemate, forming a melee involving nearly ten thousand people.
It is said that when there are 10,000 people, there is no limit. The entire battlefield is full of fighting people. It can't be seen at a glance. Their shirts are dyed red with blood. There are broken limbs and broken arms everywhere on the battlefield.
This kind of battlefield is really shocking, especially the scene of 10,000 cavalry clashing. Even from such a distance, you can feel the sense of oppression.
Several other people also looked shocked, looking at the battlefield below.
Chunlan murmured: "Seeing the battlefield below, I finally understood what the general said last time. It is really not easy to get out of this kind of battlefield intact."
