Chapter 688 The Battle on the Prairie
After Cao Huachun received the emperor's secret order, he immediately came to Lu Xiangsheng without any hesitation.

After meeting Lu Xiangsheng and exchanging pleasantries with everyone, Cao Huachun immediately started talking about business.

"Lord Lu, can you take a few steps to speak?" Cao Huachun brought people from the Military Intelligence Bureau to chase after Lu Xiangsheng, just to carry out the emperor's secret order. There are some things that are not easy to let outsiders know.

"...Well, yes, Mr. Cao, please..." Lu Xiangsheng hesitated for a moment, and immediately agreed.

Cao Huachun and Lu Xiangsheng moved a little away from the crowd.Only then did Cao Huachun begin to talk about things.

"Lord Lu, I must have received an urgent report from the imperial court. Donglu has been restrained by Mr. Sun Ge in Liaodong, and he is basically unable to look around. Your Excellency, you can do it now. Your Majesty has ordered our family to fully support it." My lord, disintegrate the coalition forces of the Mongolian right-wing tribes as soon as possible." Cao Huachun said the most core thing directly, and while speaking, he cupped his hands in the direction of the capital.

"Your Majesty is wise, I have received the decree, thank you Your Majesty for fulfilling it..." Lu Xiangsheng was very excited when he heard about it, but bowed in the direction where Cao Huachun bowed his hands in a serious manner, and thanked him earnestly.For this matter, he is short of the support of the Military Intelligence Bureau, and he can get the support of the Military Intelligence Bureau. It can be said that this battle will not take much effort. He was worried that he would not get along well with the eunuchs. It is difficult to get their support, and he was even worried The eunuch restrained him in order to grab credit. Unexpectedly, the emperor had already arranged for him, and the chief eunuch of the Military Intelligence Bureau seemed to be very cooperative.

Cao Huachun was very satisfied with Lu Xiangsheng's respect.

"...Your Majesty was selected by His Majesty to be the governor of Datong. Presumably, Your Majesty can understand His Majesty's painstaking efforts. I won't say much about other superfluous things. I think Lord Lu also understands. Regarding this battle, we will The military intelligence bureau at home will fully support you, and you just have to let go of your hands and feet to do it. If you need our family to do something or ask anything, you can just ask..." Cao Huachun said seriously, what should be done in the early stage He has already done everything, and what is left now is the ending, this ending, which does not belong to their Military Intelligence Bureau.

"Your Majesty Cao..." Lu Xiangsheng waited for these words. The Military Intelligence Bureau has the brand of Jinyiwei, but it is actually an organization similar to Dongchang, but it is not his turn to be in charge of the governor. Without the cooperation of the Military Intelligence Bureau, for the During the war, Lu Xiangsheng could only stare blankly, and got the assurance from the head of the Military Intelligence Bureau that there were no accidents in this battle.

"Lu received an urgent report from the court, and was about to go to the lord. I didn't expect the lord to arrive first, but let the lord run around..." Lu Xiangsheng began to talk and confirm with Cao Huachun, making a gesture of invitation, and said one by one, He had to discuss the details of the battle with Cao Huachun.

Lu Xiangsheng was not polite either, and immediately discussed the details carefully with Cao Huachun's guarantee.

"...Your Majesty Lu, you are being polite. We are doing business for His Majesty. Our family should do our best..." Cao Huachun also made a gesture of invitation, said polite words, and officially started talking about business.

……

Zhao Ledjiao, Wu Sangui and others followed behind, watching Lu Xiangsheng talk to the head of the Military Intelligence Bureau.

This secret meeting has been discussed for quite a long time.

Lu Xiangsheng has basically determined the process of disintegrating the Mongolian coalition forces.

After discussing the matter, Lu Xiangsheng's favor for the head of the Military Intelligence Bureau has skyrocketed. This Military Intelligence Bureau is an organization similar to the East Factory. In Lu Xiangsheng's eyes, it should be inaccessible and notorious. It is specialized in opposing civil officials. But in reality, Lu Xiangsheng I feel that he is more loyal to the king's affairs than many officials he has come into contact with.

Lu Xiangsheng was also very upset. He had not been in touch with the inside story and darkness in the officialdom. When it came to being loyal to the king, when it came to being loyal to the court and Ming Dynasty, there were actually too many people who were not as good as eunuchs.

Lu Xiangsheng's perception of Cao Huachun changed greatly, and even the eunuchs. After talking with Cao Huachun sincerely for a long time, he regarded Cao Huachun as an old friend for many years.

"Lord Cao, Lu has something I really want to ask, but I know it must be very abrupt..." Lu Xiangsheng thought for a while, and felt that he was at least one of the imperial party and a person promoted by the emperor. The relationship is also considered special, perhaps, this question can be asked, and the doubts in my heart will be gone if I ask it clearly, so as not to worry about it all the time, so I decided to ask this question.

"Your Majesty Lu, if you have any questions, just ask. Your Majesty has ordered our family to fully support you. Our family will know everything and there is nothing to be taboo about." Cao Huachun said with a smile, looking very generous.

"Then forgive Lu Mou for being abrupt...according to Lu Mou's previous thinking, he felt that the adults would definitely strive for merit and would be hindered, but the adults did not strive for merit, and did not say anything to Lu Mou, Lu... "Lu Xiangsheng still couldn't help asking about this, maybe he shouldn't ask, but Lu Xiangsheng is really curious, the credit for dismantling the Mongol coalition is really not small, but the head of the Military Intelligence Bureau seems to be interested in this Turning a blind eye to the great credit, everything is to satisfy him first...

"Hehehe, it's inevitable for your lord to be confused about this matter. Our family shouldn't say much about this matter. However, your lord is a person whom your majesty values. Mr. Lu will know about this matter sooner or later, and our family will reveal a little bit to you now. It’s fine for you to know, and you must never mention it to outsiders..." Cao Huachun thought about it for a while, and then smiled Said.What I was thinking in my heart was that this Lu Xiangsheng really deserved the word "sincerity". The evaluation of this person from the palace was indeed correct. Dare to ask this matter, but Lu Xiangsheng asked directly. This person will definitely go to the court, join the ministry and the cabinet in the future. For him, these things are not impossible to tell him. Of course, this temperament is inevitable in the officialdom. There will be more tribulations...

"...Actually, speaking of it, it's simple. We, the courtiers, are different from the foreign ministers. The achievements of the foreign ministers need to be demonstrated to be able to rise to the top. However, we, the courtiers, need your majesty's attention and appreciation, so as to complete the tasks assigned by your majesty. , is the top priority, as for the credit, it is up to His Majesty, as long as His Majesty knows, there is no need to talk about it everywhere..." Cao Huachun explained with a smile.

"Oh, so that's how it is. Lu understood, but..." After listening to Lu Xiangsheng, he seemed to understand a little bit, but in fact he still had doubts. This statement can only be said to be a very popular opinion.

"As for the constraints that your lord said, this..., hehehe, your lord should listen to what our family said. If we say it out, you won't recognize it. Your lord, don't spread it around..." Cao Huachun saw Lu Xiangsheng With a look of not understanding, he interrupted Lu Xiangsheng and said with a smile.

"Lu understands..." Lu Xiangsheng hurriedly said, hoping that Cao Huachun would say something different.

"... If you want to talk about restraints, we don't talk about the general principles. There is only one thing. Some people need restraints and need to be watched; some people don't need restraints, and Mr. Lu is a person who does not need restraints. Your Excellency understands..." Cao Huachun said, to put it bluntly, their eunuchs are the emperor's eagle dogs, and the emperor wants to deal with someone, they naturally deal with someone, or deal with some people, if the emperor does not need to deal with someone, then they naturally He doesn't know how to deal with someone, and Lu Xiangsheng is one of the people that the emperor doesn't need to deal with. He doesn't need to deal with him, so naturally he doesn't need to be restrained, and naturally he has to do things according to His Majesty's instructions.

"Lu got it..." Lu Xiangsheng seemed to understand a little more, and hurriedly said, but he still didn't quite understand.This topic got involved a little bit, and it became more taboo, so Lu Xiangsheng didn't dare to ask again.

"In fact, when His Majesty established the Military Intelligence Bureau, he set the rules. This business can only walk in the dark. All the glory and credit are not for us. Therefore, our family will not compete with Mr. Lu. Thank you, sir, do you understand now?" Seeing that Lu Xiangsheng made it clear, Cao Huachun explained with a puzzled expression on his face.Speaking of this, I am quite emotional.

"Ah!..." Lu Xiangsheng was quite surprised. He didn't expect that this military intelligence bureau similar to Dongchang would have such ghostly rules.

"Oh... our family really shouldn't have said this, but we have already said it. Don't take it to heart, my lord, and you must not spread it around..." Cao Huachun said.

"Lu found out..." Lu Xiangsheng hurriedly said, this is indeed a big secret, leaving a name in history is something that many literati yearn for, but this ghost's rules, Lu Xiangsheng looked at Cao Huachun with even more admiration.

"By the way, Master Lu, do you know how the palace evaluates you?" Cao Huachun felt that he had a lot of words today. As he spoke, he said some things that should not be said. Perhaps, this person was too sincere. After a while, my defense against this person was reduced to the minimum.

"I also ask Mr. Cao to enlighten me..." Lu Xiangsheng asked seriously.

"The evaluation of the adults in the palace is the word 'sincerity'..." Cao Huachun said, this, if he doesn't say it, it will reach Lu Xiangsheng's ears sooner or later. Now that I say it, I hope this word can better restrain him , In the matter of loyalty to the king, it has been improved to a higher level.

"Sincerity..." Lu Xiangsheng also blushed when he said this evaluation. This evaluation was really beyond his expectation, and the palace undoubtedly refers to the emperor.

"Exactly, this is the palace's evaluation of your lord. I hope your lord can be worthy of this word of sincerity, be loyal to the king's affairs, and live up to your majesty's cultivation and expectations..." Cao Huachun said seriously.

"I will live up to your Majesty's cultivation and serve the country with all my loyalty..." After Lu Xiangsheng finished speaking, he kowtowed solemnly and respectfully in the direction of the capital.

After Lu Xiangsheng finished kowtowing, Cao Huachun was about to leave. He said everything he should have said to Lu Xiangsheng, and he also said a lot that shouldn't be said. Cao Huachun, who felt that he talked too much today, felt that he might be influenced by this person. Sincerity" infected.

"Lord Lu, our family will be leaving. Today's words must not be spread outside..." Cao Huachun said.

……

Cao Huachun said his business and left.

Zhao Lengjiao, Wu Sangui and others came forward now. Just now their governor had talked with the head of the Military Intelligence Bureau for a long time, bowing and kowtowing, knowing that there might be some secret order in the palace, otherwise , It is not enough to make a governor kowtow, and everyone guesses that this is a good thing.

"Congratulations, sir..." Zhao Ratejiao was the first to speak.

"Congratulations, my lord..." Wu Sangui continued.The group of them watched from a distance, discussing what they were talking about. Judging from the situation, the conversation seemed to be very pleasant, and there was even a matter of Lu Xiangsheng kowtowing. Therefore, I am even more sure that this must be a good thing. Congratulations.

"Congratulations, congratulations!" Lu Xiangsheng also said with a smile.

"My lord, is it done?" Wu Sangui couldn't help asking.

Lu Xiangsheng smiled without saying a word, just nodded.

……

Lu Xiangsheng has the full support of the Military Intelligence Bureau, and he already has confidence in his heart.Therefore, the actions against the Mongolian right-wing coalition forces are getting bigger and bigger.

First of all, the first thing to do is naturally to cover the battlefield, constantly squeeze the activity space of the Mongolian right-wing tribes, and clean up some tribes that are alone.

To be honest, although the Mongolian Right-wing Coalition Army claims to be tens of thousands, in reality, the interior is very chaotic, and there is no strong figure who has come out to lead the overall situation. It would take the leaders of several big tribes to discuss it, but there are too many people, and it is inevitable that there will be confusion. It is impossible to discuss a good solution. Another example is the Woerdu Division, because the place is relatively remote. In fact, Huang Taiji is also good. Whether it is Lin Danhan or not, the direct threat to them and the willingness to fight are not as good as those of Tumed and Harasan.

Therefore, in the face of the continuous squeeze of the Ming Dynasty, the Mongolian right-wing coalition forces were slow to respond and did almost nothing.

Speaking of it, it's not that they are weak, nor are they unable to fight, but they don't have a strong leader to be the core of leadership. Without this, in the Ming, Jin, Mongolia, and Mongolian right-wing four-party hegemony, it can only be described as a loose sand They are fine in normal times, but they are the worst, weakest, and most unreliable side in this kind of four-way national battle.

Every family and department, no one wants to be the first to fight against the Ming Dynasty. They all know that the Ming Dynasty is powerful and powerful. If they fight against the Ming Dynasty, a certain tribe may be wiped out. This is what the leaders of each tribe are unwilling to do. As you can see, on the grassland, without strength, you can only let others slaughter you.

What's more, all kinds of rumors are flying in the grassland. Today, this tribe may betray the coalition forces, and tomorrow there will be suspicious people from that tribe, who seem to be in contact with the Ming Dynasty people.This panic made the entire coalition army even more scattered.

……

Although the Mongolian right-wing coalition forces were dawdling, they finally couldn't bear Lu Xiangsheng's increasing movements.Finally decided to fight with Ming Dynasty.

The Mongolian right-wing tribes discovered that the Ming Dynasty had enough money and food for soldiers and horses, and they were not afraid of confrontation at all. However, because they have been suffering from disasters and wars for the past two years, they suffered heavy losses. There seems to be no better way than fighting.

Originally, it was also a good choice to gather people and go east to fight Lin Danhan. After all, Lin Danhan is everyone's common enemy, and they can work together in war.However, when Lin Danhan heard that they had gathered their troops, he immediately shrank back from the front line confronting Huang Taiji, not giving them a chance at all.

Originally, they also fought Lin Danhan, and they fought well. It is not that they are incapable of fighting, but unfortunately, there is a huge Ming Dynasty watching beside them. They may not be too afraid of the people of Ming Dynasty. I believe that people in the Ming Dynasty could not enter the grasslands, even if they came, they still had to go back, and the pastures and sites would not be lost.

But now it is different. There is an additional Imperial Army in the Ming Dynasty. The so-called Imperial Army is actually the Mongols. People in the Ming Dynasty will not want pastures or enter the grasslands, but the Imperial Army will. If they left and went to fight Lin Danhan, then their original pastures and grasslands would be empty, and they would be handed over to the Royal Association Army. Without the pasture, they would fight Lin Danhan to the death, and the Royal Association Army would hold a knife behind their backs , which is unbearable anyway.

dilemma.

Now that the army has gathered, the reason for the gathering is still to deal with the Ming Dynasty people. Now that the Ming Dynasty people went out of the side wall to fight them, they realized that the situation seemed not right, but they couldn't walk away easily. Apart from reckless fighting, there is almost no way out. If you don't gather together to fight against the Ming Dynasty, you will only be defeated by the increasingly stronger Ming Dynasty. Their combined strength is no more than that. Once the parts are separated, The strength is even weaker. They are not the opponents of the Ming Dynasty at all, or in other words, they are not the opponents of the Imperial Association Army of the Ming Dynasty. Those people are strong players in grabbing pastures and territories.

……

The war beyond the border wall of Datong.

Inevitable outbreak.

Once it breaks out, it will be a decisive battle.

For the squeeze and consumption of the Ming Dynasty, the Mongolian right-wing coalition forces could not afford it, nor could it delay it.

And Lu Xiangsheng was also happy to disintegrate the coalition forces in one fell swoop.

……

In fact, it is still winter on the grassland in February, and there is no green at all in the field.

February 25.

The two sides approached and met on the bank of the Hun River outside the wall of Datong Mansion.

Twenty miles apart, they go to the village and face each other far away.

……

February 26.

Early in the morning, both sides assembled their troops with a tacit understanding, set up a posture, and prepared for a decisive battle. The distance of twenty miles was nothing to both cavalry, and they arrived at a trot.

The sound of the whining horn has never stopped, and it is transmitted desolately on the vast plain.

The armies of the two sides gradually approached each other, stopped at a certain distance, organized their teams, and prepared to decide the outcome in one fell swoop.

……

Lu Xiangsheng led all the generals and lined up in front of the formation, while he himself observed the situation with a binoculars.

"It's said that it's easy to plan a strategy and win a decisive victory thousands of miles away, but on the actual battlefield, there are tens of thousands of people, and it's already boundless, and you can't see the border at all! It's really difficult, difficult!  … "Lu Xiangsheng said with emotion.It's not that he has never done counting tens of thousands of horses, but this is the first time he has encountered tens of thousands of horses in actual battles. Commanding troops who can't see the margins to fight is indeed not as simple as it is said in the book.

"My lord Futai, although there are quite a few Mongols, they are not enough compared to us. My lord, they are just a bunch of chickens and dogs. We only need to charge and finish these Mongols." The general said carelessly.

"That's right! My lord, those are just a group of local chickens and dogs. We can crush them with a single charge, so don't care about it at all." Some other generals also said.

This time, Lu Xiang was promoted, in addition to the [-] new troops led by Zhao Ledjiao and Wu Sangui, and the [-] Huangxie troops under the pressure of the new army. In fact, there were even a group of frontier troops. There are also some from Shaanxi, the composition of which is complex and different. The generals leading the team range from high-ranking generals to low-ranking generals. Naturally, they speak in various ways.

"Rushing? Ben Fu also likes it very much... If you like rushing so much, you will really rush, everyone, don't pee your pants!" Lu Xiangsheng put down the binoculars and said with a smile.

The careless generals just now blushed and felt a little embarrassed.It's easy to talk big, but it's another matter if they really fight, whether they can still go to the battle, they are just bragging in front of the superiors habitually, but they didn't expect that this governor is not ordinary, and he directly said that he likes to go to the battle.Instead of talking about the strategizing words he just said earlier, this big talk is too much.Only then did the generals remember that the governor seemed capable of writing and martial arts, and dared to charge into battle.

"My lord, the team is ready." Wu Sangui just came back from inspecting the team and reported.

"Okay! Are you all ready?" Lu Xiangsheng asked seriously.

"Return to my lord, everything is ready..." Wu Sangui said.

"Okay!... Well, call the leaders of the Imperial Association Army, I have something to explain..." Lu Xiangsheng thought for a while and said.

"The last general takes orders!" Wu Sangui said, and then turned around to call for someone.

After a while, all the big and small leaders of the Imperial Association Army who were ready arrived. These 3 people were already considered the majority of the Imperial Association Army.Because Lin Danhan suddenly gave way to a part of the territory, Donglu had already entered the grassland with one foot. In order to prevent Donglu from suddenly going south, he robbed the Imperial Association Army to restore its strength.Most of the Imperial Association Army near Jixuan has been transferred, leaving only a small part to contain it. The defense of this section mainly relies on the frontier army and the new army. Defense is not a problem. Hundreds of thousands of frontier troops have the courage and desire to fight. This energy is definitely not bad. Besides, when there are new troops pressing the formation, they may not be afraid to fight. Maybe it is impossible for them To defeat Donglu, you only need to confront Donglu for a period of time, drag Donglu, and wait for the main force of Ming Dynasty to arrive. The main force of Ming Dynasty is equipped with a car battalion, and the speed of travel is not slow.

For these imperial association troops, it is safer to fight against Huang Taiji than to fight against the Mongolian right wing. Since the Ming Dynasty asked them to fight in another place, they are also happy to do so.

The big and small leaders of the Imperial Association Army have seen Lu Xiangsheng one after another.

Lu Xiangsheng also returned the gifts one by one.

"The big battle is coming, I know that you are inevitably a little hesitant. Here, I have a few words that I want to chat with you..." Lu Xiangsheng began to mobilize these imperial association troops before the battle.

The big and small co-leaders of the Imperial Association Army listened carefully and obeyed the dispatch and assignment of the Ming Dynasty leaders in combat. They were already very obedient.

"First of all, the rules of this war are still the same as before, so I won't say much, and the distribution of benefits is also the same as before. Whoever contributes the most will get more, and whoever is seriously injured will be rewarded. At that time, there will be more things to be replenished, trade quotas, pastures, in short, my majesty is kind, fair, and just, and I will not let you suffer. I work under my emperor, and I think you all know the reputation of my majesty , So, I won't say much..." Lu Xiangsheng first reiterated the rules to these people.

Not only the big and small leaders of the Imperial Association Army listened carefully, but even the generals of the frontier army listened carefully.

"...Secondly, this battle, I will not hide it from you, is a big battle. After this battle, I am afraid that the distribution of benefits on the grassland will change a lot. If you are determined to make progress, this is a good time. In this battle, His Majesty also knows that you will really work hard, so His Majesty also made a promise early on that those who contribute a lot in this battle will get extra rewards. I think you all know about this. Let me reiterate here that the opportunity is rare. If you can get the shares, you can say that you will have no worries about food and clothing in the future. If you can get [-]% of the shares, the annual income of several thousand taels will not be a problem, which is far more cost-effective than your grazing and raising cattle. This is a guaranteed harvest in drought and flood.” Lu Xiangsheng continued.

In fact, the Imperial Association Army already knew about this matter. Sun Chengzong went to Jixuan just to do this, to appease the new army, and also made a promise to appease the Imperial Association Army.

As for the content of the talk, it was about getting shares in the woolen sweater factory.The place of Wordus is the main production area of ​​raw materials for woolen sweaters and cashmere sweaters. After laying down this place, Yang Reform expanded to the north and west. Every year, a large amount of thermal products are needed, and cashmere sweaters and woolen sweaters are a must. The choice of equipment, which is light and warm enough, is an indispensable thing to go to the Far East.

This is also one of the benefits that Yang Reform promised the Mongols. The actual annual profit of this woolen sweater factory is not high, at most tens of thousands of taels. This may still be noticed by Yang Reform in the past, but For today's Yang Reform, it is really nothing. Yang Reform intends to use shares to win over some active and relatively reliable Mongolian Imperial Association Army, and gradually assimilate them. This is a trend, and the way out for the Imperial Association Army If they are all sealed off, the Imperial Association Army must be given hope, and the Imperial Association Army will work harder.

This money is nothing to Yang Reform, but it is a lot of money to the Mongols. The cattle, sheep and livestock on the grassland are very worthless. If you can get thousands of taels of white money every year, this is undoubtedly Very attractive, the purchasing power of silver has always been very high on the grasslands. For example, when Lin Danhan was asked for help in the Ming Dynasty, Lin Danhan only asked for a few thousand taels of silver per year for "benefit fees" at the beginning. ".

When Lu Xiangsheng told this story, the Imperial Association Army was fine, but the generals of the frontier army on the side were already red-eyed, and they all looked at Lu Xiangsheng eagerly.

Lu Xiangsheng glanced at the frontier soldiers, did not speak, but concentrated on "mobilizing" the Imperial Association Army.

"Of course, this battle has a lot to do with it. It goes without saying that anyone in the Imperial Association Army does not work hard or escapes. The treatment of the Imperial Association Army will be canceled immediately and severe punishment will be imposed immediately..." Lu Xiangsheng added.

All the imperial association troops obediently agreed that the Ming Dynasty had already promised them that if they won the battle, they could share the territory, the spoils, shares, and trade quotas.In short, there are many benefits. Of course, if you don’t work hard or escape, you will naturally be punished severely. Not only will the treatment of the Imperial Association Army be cancelled, but you will also be hunted down. Although the grassland is large now, there are not many places where you may go.Offending the Ming Dynasty is a troublesome matter. Now the Ming Dynasty is getting stronger and stronger, and it is becoming more and more awe-inspiring.

After the "mobilization" with the Imperial Association Army, Lu Xiangsheng was ready to mobilize the frontier army again.

In fact, the frontier soldiers have long been watching Lu Xiangsheng eagerly. If the Imperial Association Army can share the stock, what can they get?
See Lu Xiangsheng turned to them.

"My lord..." A general surnamed Du looked at Lu Xiangsheng eagerly, hoping that Lu Xiangsheng could say something to them.

"In this war, the rules are the same as before, how much effort and how much things are taken, and those who are unwilling to contribute, there is still time to withdraw now..." Lu Xiangsheng said.

"The last general is willing, the last general is willing, everyone is willing to fight with your lord..." the commander-in-chief surnamed Du said quickly, nonsense, who doesn't know that the Ming Dynasty has a great chance of winning this war, once it wins this war , how much does that score?Things are not soft?Quit now?Are you out of your mind?The person who can come here, didn't he use his relationship and break his scalp to come?Just counting on following the new army to grab things, and no one will leave, and you will automatically quit?
"Okay, but let's talk about it first, if you are timid during the war, don't blame Ben Fu for not being sympathetic..." Lu Xiangsheng said sternly.

"The last general will save it, the last general will save it, Lord Futai, don't worry, the last general will definitely not disappoint Futai." The commander-in-chief surnamed Du immediately assured.

"Master Futai, don't worry, I will try my best to kill the thieves, and I won't disappoint Futai..." The frontier soldiers from other places also said.

"Okay!" Lu Xiangsheng said loudly again.

The Imperial Association Army and Frontier Army were mobilized.Then, for the rest, it's up to him to release the final trump card to beat all the troops.

"Before this battle, I will tell you one more thing that everyone must pay attention to..." Lu Xiangsheng said, and after finishing speaking, he looked around majesticly.

Everyone stretched their necks waiting for Lu Xiangsheng to speak.

"...For this war, our court has already discussed with several tribes in the Mongolian right-wing coalition. When the war starts, they will respond internally and disrupt the camp of the Mongolian right-wing coalition in one fell swoop. At that time, everyone will charge again. , it must be easy to take down the Mongolian right-wing tribes..." Lu Xiangsheng finally broke the news before the battle.

This news can be said to be earth-shattering, and many people's eyes were straightened.Especially the co-leaders of the Imperial Association Army and the generals of the frontier army didn't realize what this meant for a while.

This kind of battle is at a critical moment, and the result of internal betrayal is self-evident. What else can I do except lose?In other words, this battle is not just that the Ming Dynasty has a greater chance of winning, but that the Ming Dynasty will definitely win, and it will win easily.

The generals of the frontier army began to stare wide-eyed and looked at the invisible Mongolian coalition army in the distance, as if they were not people, but groups of animals, a piece of silver, many generals were thinking in their hearts, this time it really It didn't come in vain, it cost a lot of money to manage, it's really worth it.

The co-leaders of the Imperial Association Army had their eyes bright. In this way, this battle is not difficult at all. I thought it would be a tough battle before, but in reality, this is a matter of victory!They were the same, looking at the camp of the Mongolian right-wing coalition in the distance, they were no longer looking at people, but at livestock and pastures.

"Hmm!..." Seeing Lu Xiangsheng tell the news, many people stared straight at him and had to cough to remind him that he still had something to say.

Everyone who looked straight at him turned their attention to Lu Xiangsheng, as if they were going to melt Lu Xiangsheng.

"... Everyone remember the names of these tribes, it is..." Lu Xiangsheng said the names of several tribes.

Some of these tribes are relatively large and well-known, and it may be easier to memorize them, but some of them are smaller tribes, and it is difficult to distinguish them.

Because the Imperial Association Army is originally Mongolian, although there are a few lesser-known tribes, as long as someone reminds them, they can clearly understand which tribe they are talking about, but the frontier army cannot.

"My lord, this..., the name of the tribe..., the last general..." The general surnamed Du hurriedly responded to Lu Xiangsheng.

"When these tribes are in trouble, they will wrap white cloth around their arms to show the difference. If you don't know the difference, you can use the white cloth as a secret to distinguish. Besides, Du Zongbing, don't worry, the frontier army doesn't know the grassland. It doesn't matter the tribes above, I have prepared a guide here, if the frontier soldiers can't tell the difference, they can ask the guide..." Lu Xiangsheng said again, this guide was actually arranged by the Military Intelligence Bureau.

"Thank you, sir, for your compassion..." The general soldier surnamed Du quickly thanked him, which was really well arranged.

"You don't need to thank Benfu. If Zongbing Du can kill a few more enemies, then Benfu will be pleased." Lu Xiangsheng said.After completing this step, Lu Xiangsheng knew that only then could the war begin.Under the premise of this certain victory, the strength of the Imperial Association Army and the Frontier Army can be brought into full play.

"Your Excellency is right..." Du Zongbing said with some shame.

……

Lu Xiangsheng made the last "mobilization" before the war, and the Mongolian right-wing coalition finally took action.

On the battlefield, the Mongolian right wing rushed over for a few horses, and the Ming Dynasty also went out for a few horses. The horsemen and horses talked for a while in the center of the battlefield, and the Ming Dynasty's horsemen immediately galloped back.

"Report..."

Lu Xiangsheng made the final "mobilization" and was watching the changes on the battlefield. When he saw the people coming over there, he knew that the Mongolian coalition forces had something to say. Seeing Tan Ma coming, he immediately asked, "What did they say?"

"Return to your lord, the Mongols said that as long as your lord promises them to withdraw their troops immediately, and reopen the horse market, they can withdraw their troops without going through the Imperial Association Army's transaction, and they will live in peace since then, without using swords..." replied.

"Retreat? Hehehe..." Lu Xiangsheng laughed for a while, and then said: "...Where is it so easy? Tell them that Donglu is the mortal enemy of our dynasty and has a blood feud with our dynasty. They don't know what to do, Forming an alliance with Donglu and taking refuge in Donglu, this is an enemy of our dynasty, since it is an enemy of our dynasty, then our dynasty will naturally treat them as Donglu..." Lu Xiangsheng said loudly, although the real reason for the war is not this , but this is indeed a good reason.At least it can stop many people's mouths. Sometimes, I really have to find an excuse for the war.

"Small order!" The scout got the message, and immediately went to reply to the cavalry of the Mongolian right-wing coalition army waiting in the center of the battlefield.

The spies ran to the middle and talked to the Mongolians, and the Mongolians hurried back.After a while, he ran out again, and talked to Ming Chao Tanma for a while, Ming Chao Tanma heard it, and ran back immediately.

"Report..." The scout ran back again.

"What do they say?" Lu Xiangsheng asked.

"My lord, the Mongols said that they had to do it to avoid the disaster of killing their lives. They didn't really form an alliance with the Eastern Captives. Besides, the alliance with the Eastern Captives was only the Hara Shen tribe, and it had nothing to do with them..." The Tanma continued Said.

"Okay! Needless to say, tell them that Ben Fu is not a fool, and I am not a fool. There are such cheap things there. Now what is it that they are not a coalition army? Don't tell Ben Fu, there are no people from the Hara Shenbu among them , and don’t tell Ben Fu that they fought Lin Danhan together without forming an alliance, that’s enough, needless to say, tell the Mongols, it’s useless to talk more, it’s better to see the truth..." Lu Xiangsheng said.

"The little one has orders!" The Tanma agreed, then turned around and got on the horse, beat the horse and left.

"What's the matter?" Lu Xiangsheng originally wanted to chat with the Mongols. Even if the Mongols didn't talk to him, he still wanted to talk to the Mongols. Gotta spread out a little bit.Seeing Wu Sangui came back, he didn't have the heart to fool around with the Mongols, so he asked immediately.

"My lord, everything is ready..." Wu Sangui replied.

"Okay..." Lu Xiangsheng said.

Looking at the few riders in the middle of the battlefield, they are almost talking.

"Beating the drum..." Lu Xiangsheng said loudly.

The drums of war sounded suddenly, and the earth shook suddenly.

The few explorers who were chatting in the middle immediately finished their words hastily, and then returned after hitting their horses.

Several Mongolian cavalrymen were also taken aback, and immediately galloped back. ,

"Boom, boom, boom..." The sound of the war drum covered everything, waking up the sleeping land.

The drum beat for a while.

"Borji! Wuliangha..." Lu Xiangsheng shouted.

"The last general is here." The two Imperial Association troops immediately came out and replied.

"Order the two of you to be the vanguard of the left wing of the Royal Association Army. In addition to the troops of the main force, lead the Wuyete Troop and the Asuoyong Troop with a total of [-] riders, and charge directly to the enemy's right army..." Lu Xiangsheng ordered loudly. [Tribal names and personal names are all fabricated. 】

"The last general will have orders." The two leaders of the Imperial Association Army agreed in response. Although the loss was a bit big, it was a first effort. It was a lot, and the two of them agreed without hesitation.After hearing Lu Xiangsheng's words, these two people no longer have any doubts about the victory of this battle. Who will they not take for this first achievement?

These two people won the vanguard position, which made the leaders of the Imperial Association Army around them envious. How many things will they score in this battle that must be won?

Soon, a man and horse rushed out from the Ming Dynasty's army and rushed towards the Mongolian right-wing coalition army.

The battle immediately kicked off.Nothing fancy.

When the Mongolian right-wing coalition saw the Ming Dynasty's charge, they also responded, and sent a group of troops to stop the Ming Dynasty's charge.
