The Red Mansions Across the Four Seas

Chapter 567 is no different from a robber

Xi Mailui let Jia Min into the yurt, as affectionate as seeing his own father.

"Ximerui, you guys are not advancing fast. It's been a few days and you still haven't moved here."

"Hey, Chief Min, you don't know, these Koreans are so cunning, they are even more cunning than you Chinese people..., ah, I don't mean you are cunning."

"Is it because they don't fight with you? If you don't fight them, they will come to you. Once you hit him, he will run away."

Xi Mailui's eyes widened all of a sudden, staring at Jia Min as if looking at a monster.

"Officer Min, haven't you been here a long time ago, why do you know everything?"

"Xi Meirui, we have just arrived, why do you say we have arrived long ago?"

Miaoyu would quit.

"Hey, I'm sorry, I said the wrong thing. But Chief Min. How do you know? That's how they are."

"Okay, you call someone to call Shaq and Vadagas, and I will tell you how to fight. I knew you would do this, so I came here."

Not long after, Shaq and Wadagas arrived, and they were naturally overjoyed to see Jia Min.

Although the Tatars criss-cross the grasslands, with their iron cavalry deployed, they have few opponents.However, in such mountainous terrain, their tactics did not work.

None of them had much experience in fighting in the mountains, and they were not familiar with the place, so after arriving here, it was almost impossible for them to take a single step.

Jia Min knew they would be like this, so he didn't blame them, but made them a little embarrassed.

"Now, let me tell you some good news. Chen Yeqing's third brigade has landed in the south of Koryo. If they attack normally, they should be in the Daejeon area by now, and the next step is to attack Seoul."

"Why don't you take advantage of the victory and chase down Seoul in one go?"

Shaq asked.

"For you."

"For us? Don't understand."

"If Seoul is captured, the Korean soldiers and horses here will not go to save Seoul. They can only go back if they feel that there is still hope for saving Seoul. Only when they return to Seoul will you have a chance to fight them."

"Officer Min, I understand, you are telling us to hit them again when they are retreating."

"By the way, when they retreated, they wouldn't still be walking on the mountain, right?"

"Yeah, they won't be able to escape this time."

"That's not necessarily the case. Instead of running from the mountains, they can also run from the water."

"Officer Min, are you saying that they will run away from Qingjin Port?"

"Why not? If it were me, I would run from Qingjin Port. Could you still go to the sea to chase them?"

"Yeah, why didn't I think of that."

"So, Shaq, you immediately send people to occupy Qingjin Port, and control all the docks and ships."

"In the end, Chief Min has insight, so I'll go right away."

For these elm heads, Jia Min also wanted to cry but had no tears.I have been here for several days, and I don't even know how to occupy such a very important strategic goal as Qingjin Port.

Fortunately, the enemy commanders are not very smart, or they have not received the order to retreat, and they are still dealing with them here.Otherwise, the other party would have slipped away from the sea long ago.

"How many enemies are there at present?"

"A total of 3000 soldiers, 8000 soldiers from China, and 5000 soldiers from Korea."

"Who is the commander-in-chief of the other party??"

"The commander of Middle Earth is Cheng Bangming, and the commander of Korea is Kim Taeyoung."

"Cheng Fangming? Could it be that he was Dade's Minister of War?"

"It's him."

"Oh, I didn't expect to meet an old acquaintance here."

"Officer Min knows him?"

"If your information is accurate, this person is still my teacher. When I participated in the martial arts, he was one of the examiners when I took the exam."

"Since he is a teacher, isn't even Chief Min not his opponent?"

Vadagas made a timely judgment.

Jia Min wanted to bump his head to death.

"Teacher, there will always be some skills. However, there is another saying among the Han people that a teacher does not have to be better than a disciple, and a disciple does not have to be inferior to a teacher."

"What does it mean?"

Alas, an uneducated army is terrible. A general who does not study hard is not a good general.

"This sentence means that teachers are not necessarily better than students, and students are not necessarily inferior to teachers."

"Officer Min has a solution?"

Simrey is alive again.

"When you fight, don't let them lead you by the nose. He fights his opponents, and you fight your opponents. Now, take out the picture and see where they will go if they go back?"

Xi Meirui took out the map and compared it with Wadagas on the map.

"Officer Min, there are two routes, one is the east route and the other is the west route. Tell me, which one will they take?"

"You don't need to worry about which one they take, if you go, which one are you willing to take?"

"Of course it's on the western front."

"Why take the Western Front?"

"It's easy to go on the western front."

"Okay, you will go to the west tonight."

"Not here to beat them?"

"If you want to fight them, you can't fight anywhere. Why do you have to fight here? In the past, they blocked you here, but this time you go in front of them and stop them."

"What if they go on the Eastern Front? Wouldn't it be impossible to stop them?"

"Look further ahead, where will the western and eastern fronts meet?"

"We made peace in Santun."

"Is there a large piece of flat land in Santunli?"

"That's right, Mr. Min, we will intercept them in Santun. There is flat land, with high mountains on both sides. It is the place they must pass through. When they get there, it will be the world of our grassland cavalry. Mr. Min, you Sure enough, he is smarter than us."

Nonsense, if I'm not smarter than you, wouldn't I be defeated by your subordinates?

"Anyway, we are going south. Why don't we go south first and stop them in front of them. They must be anxious when they see you going south. Brigadier Chen attacked their capital, and they have to go back to rescue them. Then they will chase you to fight , instead of you looking for them everywhere."

"Okay, we'll set up camp tonight. Tell Shaq to come with us."

Alas, they all left as soon as they said they would leave, and they didn't even care about the port.

"You guys go first, tell Shaq to stay."

"Officer Min is saying that when the time comes, ask Shaq to chase from behind and attack from front to back?"

Alas, I finally got my head around it.

"Is Chief Min going with us?"

"I'll go with Shaq. That's all, that's it. Besides, there's one more important thing."

"Officer Min, what's the matter? As long as you order it, we will do it."

"Can you get us something to eat, are you trying to starve me to death?"

"Oh, why did you forget about this, do it right away, right away."

After eight o'clock in the evening, it began to snow lightly.The Korean army came to sneak into the camp again to harass.Not long after, he was repulsed by Xi Meirui.

At this time, the snow fell more and more.At ten o'clock in the evening, the 2 horses of Xi Mairui and Wadagas quietly set up camp and headed south from the West Road.

The steppe cavalry, no strangers to night marches, broke away from the battle line at midnight.Marched all night and rushed to Santunli.

Shaq's 8000 troops had already occupied Qingjin Port during the day.The remaining [-] people were scattered and stationed in the original camps of Simari and Vadagas, staying in the camp to confuse and contain the enemy.

Jia Min stayed in the camp.In the middle of the night, Tamara sneaked into his yurt.The two naturally had a chat.

When the love was strong, Tamara started yelling recklessly, but Jia Min couldn't persuade her.

Miaoyu lived in the yurt next to her, and when she heard Tamara's voice, she didn't know why, and thought that the enemy had come to steal the camp again, so she hurried over to check.It was Jia Min's guard standing outside the yurt, who stopped her back.

When she got up in the morning, Miaoyu came to ask Jia Min again what happened last night.No matter how thick-skinned Jia Min was, it was not easy to tell Miao Yu directly, so he was fooled.

Miaoyu didn't understand, so she went to ask Tamara.

Tamara didn't care about that and just told Miaoyu.Miaoyu was ashamed and anxious, and left in a hurry.When passing by Jia Min, he gave Jia Min a hard look, and left with a blushing face.

Two days later, perhaps the other party noticed something was wrong, or perhaps received an order to retreat, the Tianshun imperial army and the Koryo army began to retreat.

After the opponent retreated for six hours, Shaq's [-] soldiers set up camp and followed behind.

Jia Min told Shaq to go first, saying that he would be there later.Miaoyu took over the Qingjin Pier and ships from Shaq.

Jiaoli and Tamara led people to collect pig iron, saltpeter, charcoal and other materials in Huining and Qingjin.

Not just military raw materials, as long as they are relatively valuable, medicinal materials such as ginseng, cotton, cloth, etc. will not be spared.

Joli has been here several times before, so he is quite familiar with where and what is there.It saves a lot of trouble to search.

Naturally, most of these things belonged to those merchants, and some belonged to the local government. Of course, it was impossible to talk about giving money.Now that the two sides are in a hostile state of war, who will talk to you about money or not?
Those Mamluk soldiers who looked like yakshas were scary enough, and with sophisticated weapons, who would dare to come out to stop them?
Of course there are people who work.Just grab some civilian husbands without paying money, just labor.Three days later, all the materials were concentrated on the boat at Qingjin Wharf.A full seven boats were loaded.

At first, Miaoyu thought that these things were bought with money, and complained that it was not worthwhile to buy them here. It is so far away, so it is better to buy them in Zhongtu.

After hearing what Tamara said about what was going on, he was stunned for a long time before saying a word.

"Isn't this just robbery? It's no different from a robber."

A local boatman was hired, and Miaoyu escorted the boat to Dadonggou.

Gioli stayed behind, preparing to search for other things along the way.

At this time, in the south of Goryeo, Liu Cheng was doing the same thing as Jiao Li.

Fighting a war is an extremely expensive thing. It is thousands of miles away from the North Sea, and it is impossible to supply supplies from the North Sea, so we have to use this method to support war with war.
