Chongzhen Daming: Starting from Coal Mountain

Chapter 27
Immediately afterwards, a large group of cavalry rushed out of the battalion of the Gongtu Department.

Apparently, the Gongtu Ministry also thought it was Emperor Chongzhen and wanted to arrest him.

Seeing this, Li Yan no longer hesitated, Chongzhen must not let the Mongols take him away.

Because it involves whether it is legal for Dashun to replace Daming, and it involves the inheritance of the legal system.

Immediately, Li Yan rode his horse forward and shouted loudly: "Second brother, you go to catch Chongzhen, third brother, you and I intercept and kill the cavalry of the Gongtu tribe, you must buy enough time for the second brother!"

"Brother, don't worry." Li Mou laughed loudly, "Small things don't take much effort!"

"Don't be careless!" Li Yan reminded loudly, "And remember not to hurt Chongzhen's life!"

"Brother, don't worry, there will be no delay." Li Mou reined in his horse, and faced a dozen or so Ming troops.

Behind Li Mou, more than a hundred riders also spread out, wrapping the dozens of Ming troops in the middle in a fan shape.

The dozen or so Ming army cavalry were also fierce, and they were not afraid to face ten times the number of enemy cavalry. After a hundred steps away, they began to draw their bows and shoot arrows, first light arrows and then heavy arrows.

Sparse arrows fell, and thieves kept falling from their horses.

Li Mou didn't care, they could still afford the casualties.

In a blink of an eye, the two sides entered within twenty steps, and the Ming army cavalry switched to the three-eyed blunderbuss and the Thunderbolt blunderbuss.

Accompanied by the loud sound of firing the guns, the bandit cavalry immediately turned on their backs, causing heavy casualties. In just one moment, more than [-] bandit riders fell off their horses.

"Damn it!" Li Mou gritted his teeth.

These are all old people brought out by Henan.

But fortunately, the cavalry of the Ming army did just that.

Three-eyed blunderbuss and Thunderbolt blunderbuss are powerful but troublesome to load.

After firing a row of guns, the cavalry from both sides collided violently.

Li Mou is facing the "Chongzhen" in the middle of the Ming army wearing mountain armor.

Worried about hurting Chongzhen, Li Mou didn't dare to stab, but swiped "Chongzhen" off his horse with a sweep of his silver spear. The whole process can be said to be uneventful.

But the other dozen or so Ming army cavalry were smashed into sieves in an instant.

"Leave a group of people and take care of Chongzhen!" Li Mou pointed his silver gun at Chongzhen on the ground, and said, "The rest follow me and kill the Mongols!"

The thief suddenly responded.

……

Under the cover of night, Chongzhen and his party quietly came behind the parapet.

Across the five-foot-high parapet and the less than three-step-wide trench, the battlefield was not far ahead, where the Rogue cavalry and the Gongtu cavalry had launched a large-scale melee.

Flames were shining, arrows were flying, and swords, lights and swords were mixed together.

There were bandits or cavalry from the Gongtu tribe who fell off their horses constantly, and the screams of the soldiers on both sides were also intertwined.

Hu Xinshui, Wang Jiayan and other ministers couldn't help turning their eyes to Chongzhen who was standing in the middle again, thinking to themselves one by one, the Holy Majesty really used soldiers like a god, but he only used an old eunuch, a mountain armor and a dozen The servants caused the Gongtu tribe and the Liu thief to fall into a melee, and it was still a large-scale melee that would never die.

Not surprisingly, their monarchs and ministers will soon be able to leave this ghost place.

"Hu Aiqing." Chongzhen suddenly turned around and asked Hu Xinshui beside him, "Who do you think will win?"

"The winners in the end are naturally Daming and His Majesty." Hu Xinshui let out a sigh of relief and said, "Liu Thief and Gongtu Tribe are just making wedding dresses for Daming and His Majesty after all."

Chongzhen smiled and said, "I mean who will win, the Liu thief or the Gongtu tribe?"

"Your Majesty asked this? That must be the Liu thief's win." Hu Xinshui said without thinking, "I have fought against the Liu thief before, and I am also familiar with the Gongtu tribe. If the two sides start a chasing battle on the grassland, the Liu thief will lose. But if it's a close melee like now, the Gongtu tribe will definitely lose."

"I think so too." Chongzhen said with a smile.

Turning his head and looking at the eastern sky, Chongzhen said again: "Hu Aiqing, you can start preparing for your thousand barbarians. Once the scuffle between the Liu thief and the Gongtu tribe is over, it will be their turn to show their talents."

Hu Xinshui turned his head and nodded slightly to Hu Guozhu who was behind him, and Hu Guozhu responded lightly with yes.

Immediately, Hu Guozhu turned his horse's head and returned to Yi Ding's cavalry formation. Yi Ding had already taken back his battle robes. Although they were only baked to half dry, they were no longer wet and cold.

What Hu Guozhu didn't expect was that Chongzhen also quietly followed.

"Your Majesty, you?" The expression on Hu Guozhu's face was unclear in the darkness, but it probably wouldn't look good.

"I just came to see you." Chongzhen waved his hand, passed Hu Guozhu and went straight to Mongolia Yiding in the front row. Not surprisingly, this should be a hundred households from Zuoying, that is, a senior officer.

As a time traveler, of course Chongzhen would not pin all his hopes of conquering the thousand barbarians on Hu Xinshui, but it was far from enough to buy one Hu Xinshui, he had to buy all the senior officers of the thousand barbarians, three hundred Years later, a warlord surnamed Jiang disintegrated the Northwest Army, the Northeast Army, the Sichuan Army, and the Hunan Army through this method. Senior officers of the Hunan Army took a group photo.

It is impossible to take pictures now, but it is possible to pull the Yi Ding officer under Hu Xinshui to make daily life.

"Your name is Wubatan, isn't it?" Chongzhen urged his horse to walk up to the first Yiding officer and asked with a smile.

"The sage has a good memory, and the last general is Wubatan." Wubatan seemed a little flattered, even though they, the Liao Ding and Yi Ding, were full of complaints about the Ming court and the Chongzhen Emperor, but this did not prevent them from thinking about Daming in their hearts. The court and the recognition of the orthodox status of the Chongzhen Emperor.

"Your Daming official words are quite good."

"It has been almost twenty years since the last general moved to western Liaoning."

"It's been almost twenty years since I moved to western Liaoning. Have you married a wife and had children?"

"Married and had four sons, the oldest one is twelve years old."

"The eldest son is already twelve years old. He should have entered school at this age. Have you passed the childbirth examination?"

A look of sadness appeared on Wu Tan's face, and he said in a low voice, "According to the laws of the Ming Dynasty, our barbarians who moved to the Han area are regarded as being of low status, and cannot enter school, let alone take the imperial examination."

"Oh, this is the ancestor's rule, there is really no way."

Wu put out the small flame that had just risen in Tan's eyes and immediately extinguished it.

However, Chongzhen's next words immediately rekindled the fire of hope in Wu Batan.

Chongzhen said: "The ancestral system of the Ming Dynasty cannot be changed lightly, but you can find a way to bypass it. How about this, I will give you the domicile of military households, so that several of your sons can go to school."

"Thank you, my lord." Wu Batan was overjoyed when he heard this.

Wu Batan immigrated to western Liaoning for nearly [-] years, and his way of thinking has been completely sinicized. He believes that studying and taking the imperial examination is [-] times better than serving as a soldier and eating food, so the move of Chongzhen to grant military status really scratched his itch.

At this moment, Wu Batan was really grateful to Chongzhen.

The other Yiding officers in the front row also cast envious looks.

Obviously, the thinking of these Yiding officers is similar to that of Wu Batan.

Chongzhen urged his horse to walk up to the second Yiding officer, and asked with a smile, "Can you speak official language?"

"Hui Sheng speaks, the last general speaks the official language." The second Yiding officer puffed out his chest and said loudly, "The last general's name is Meng Ketu, and he has moved to western Liaoning for nearly twenty years."

"Mengketu? Are you from the Gongtu tribe?"

"Yes, but twenty years ago, the previous generation of the Gongtu tribe turned their backs on Lin Danhan and took refuge in Jiannu, so we followed the general and moved to western Liaoning."

"Have you married and had children?"

"Married two and had three sons."

"Hi son, I also have three sons."

"My lord, can you also reward the last general with a military status?"

"Of course, you deserve this." Chongzhen turned his gaze to all the barbarians who lined up, and said, "Every soldier who fights for Ming Dynasty, no matter if they are Han, barbarians or Mongols, is eligible to obtain military status , I will grant you the military residence of the Ming Dynasty now, and you will have the same rights as the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty!"

Hearing this, dozens of Eddingtons in the front row cheered.

"Quiet! Be quiet!" Chongzhen was so frightened that he quickly signaled Yi Ding to keep silent.

Looking back, I saw that the cavalry of the Liu thief and the Gongtu tribe were still fighting fiercely.

Chongzhen continued to urge his horse to go forward, chatting with the remaining Yiding officers.

These Yiding officers with the least seniority have also immigrated to Western Liaoning for more than ten years. Most of them have learned Mandarin and can basically communicate directly with Chongzhen. Only a few officers need to translate charcoal.

After doing some homework, when he left Chongzhen could clearly feel that the way these Yiding officers looked at him had changed. It was a joke to say that Natou would only be loyal to him from now on, but these Officer Yi Ding recognized him more, but there was no doubt about it.

Anyway it's a good start.

In time, Chongzhen believed that the thousand barbarians would only recognize him. At that time, neither Wu Sangui nor Hu Xinshui and his son would be able to command the thousand barbarians anymore.

And he, Chongzhen, will be able to use this thousand barbarian Ding as his team to follow the example of Emperor Taizu Gao and establish a three thousand battalion.

Then in the future, Daming will have at least one cavalry unit that dares to fight against Jiannu in the wild, so that they will not be too passive during the Northern Expedition.
