Chapter 2044 everything is preparing
On the vast grassland, a team of cavalry was moving forward alone. .
"Your Highness, the snow has melted!"
Zhu Gaoxu got off the horse and squatted down to dig out a thin layer of snow covered in the grass.
The snow water wet his gloves, and the vitality below made people feel refreshed.
This is reincarnation.
Zhu Gaoxu stood up in disappointment and said, "Snow is like movement. Those people will come out, continue, and go around left and right."
Two teams of cavalry were immediately divided into this formation and detoured from both wings.
This is to guard against encountering enemy scouts, but it is not necessarily safe.
Zhu Gaoxu really wanted to launch it now, but he only brought a thousand cavalry out.
According to Fang Xing's intention, after a long journey, you must rest for a while and wait for supplies and detect the enemy situation.
Pugu and Wuen are not nomadic tribes like the Huns. They have fixed stationing points. They are alert, even if their main direction is to put it on the front...
Zhu Gaoxu took out the water bag and took a sip of wine, and said with satisfaction: "Strike from Hami Guards and raid on the flanks, okay!"
The lonely march, the continuous roundabout investigation...
...
The subordinates advised Zhu Gaoxu to go back because he would go back to Turpan and would meet many herdsmen, exposing the intentions of the Ming Dynasty.
But Zhu Gaoxu still refused. He wanted to capture a few prisoners and asked Pugu what they were doing now.
So one morning, when the morning mist had not yet dissipated, the detoured ranger in front brought news of the discovery of the enemy scout.
Zhu Gaoxu galloped first, and the sound of ox horns kept coming, and the three sides were surrounded was a foregone conclusion.
More than ten cavalry were running away. After seeing the Ming army's armor, they turned around and ran away without thinking.
After holding it for a long time, he found a place to vent. Zhu Gaoxu shouted loudly: "All those who dare to escape will be killed!"
But the Ming army didn't listen to him.
It was finally easy to catch the tail of the enemy scout, how could he kill him?
Want to live!
As the distance narrowed, crossbow arrows were continuously fired, and the war horses that were shot fell down with long neighs.
When the last six people were completely entangled, someone shouted: "Dropping off the horse and abandoning the knife, you can survive!"
So the six people dismounted and knelt on the ground, leaving the Ming army to tie them up.
Zhu Gaoxu only killed one person, feeling sore all over his body, and had no place to use his strength.
"Search five miles ahead and no one comes back."
The soldiers were inspecting the enemy scouts who were dismissed. More than ten people were dismissed, and only three people did not break their arms, legs and neck.
The scream made Zhu Gaoxu a little annoyed. He ordered: "To be tortured to those people, and you must confess immediately, and then..."
They are sentry detectives and have no time to carefully identify them.
So the injured enemy scouts were attacked by various rough means.
Amid the howling, Chang Jianxun said: "Your Highness, if you want to raid, the scouts must advance in multiple directions..."
"It's faster than them!"
Zhu Gaoxu looked into the distance and suddenly cursed: "Those idiots are thinking about how to get more benefits from Maiergan's hands. When I arrive, kill him without leaving any money!"
"Your Highness, they are Uen's men, and they are going to inquire about Hamiwei's situation."
Zhu Gaoxu glanced at the distance and said, "Call back, let's go back immediately!"
...
"What do you say about my brother Meiergan?"
In the temporary wooden house, Wuen asked melancholy.
The dusty messenger said, "Your Highness, Your Highness Meiergan requires us to keep our guard and keep our eyes on the Ming people, and food and grass will be continuously transported over."
Wu'en's expression relaxed, and the Pugu next to him asked, "What are you going to pay here? Could it be that the food and grass you have taken for free?"
The messenger said awkwardly: "His Highness Meiergan said... we should get more furs and war horses."
Pugu sneered and said, "It turns out that there are no brothers in the king's family. Wuen, Meiergan is planning to use us, but he is unwilling to pay more benefits. What do you say?"
Wuen said embarrassedly: "Wai Si swept away most of his people, and Yili turned it like a wasteland. It will take at least twenty years to restore it to its original population."
He said in confusion: "We can afford to wait, but... but wise people can't wait!"
"Xinghe City is not a shelter place. Those Ming people continue to immigrate from the Central Plains. This is for a long time... Xinghe City cannot control the territory of the original Tatars and Oirats. If it is built in Yili Zhuanli, plus Hami Guards and Suzhou Guards... Pugu, the Ming people will completely block the power of Halie and the Meat Mi to the East..."
Pugu said calmly: "But here, the long-distance expedition of Ming people is not cost-effective, so everything depends on the process of Meiergan unifying Halie. So, then we will be as stable as Mount Tai. Unless the Ming people take an expedition to conquer the country, the current situation will be stable."
The messenger said: "I discovered the Ming spy in Samarkand before, saying that it was from the Dongchang..."
Pugu was still a little confused, but Wuen asked anxiously: "Has anyone escaped?"
The envoy said: "Those wise men were brave and captured, and they went to death with gaze. Later, when they were arrested, they surrounded and killed..."
The messenger remembered the Ming man he saw at that time and said in fear: "Just in front of the palace, countless people surrounded him, but the Ming man was fighting, fighting desperately, but refused to surrender, before his death..."
Wuen remembered the Ming army that fought with Fang Xing at that time, and the nature of the East Factory, and asked: "What did he say?"
The messenger felt that he would never forget the dusk. He said dumbly: "You will be defeated, the war will come to Samarkand, the Ming Dynasty... invincible..."
A dead silence...
"What is Dongchang?"
When Pugu saw Wu'en's face pale, he asked.
Wuen did not answer him, but continued to ask the messenger, "Did anyone escape?"
The messenger said, "I chased all the way, but I almost chased the Ming people's side wall, but the two of them were picked up."
Wuen leaned back, sighed a long time, and then slowly closed his eyes.
"The East Factory is as famous as the Jinyiwei. It was said to be a full-time monitoring of the officialdom in the Ming Dynasty. They appeared in Samarkand, Pugu, do you know what this means?"
"The Ming people are staring at us!"
Pugu stood up and shouted, "Send a scout outside the Ming people's wall to inquire about the news!"
Someone outside the door responded. Pugu turned around and looked at the frustrated Wuen and said, "This is not terrible. They just sent spies. Wuen, cheer up!"
Wuen opened his eyes and murmured, "Pugu, the news shows that there are disputes in the country, but don't forget that the emperor of the Ming people is very young and is impulsive when he is young. Mei'er's stupidest behavior is not to kill all the spies."
"As long as the Ming people know that Halie is preparing to unify, according to their old emperor's temperament, they will definitely fight. If they don't defeat Halie and break up, they will not give up!"
Pugu frowned and said, "It's not that scary. If they go on an expedition, we will retreat."
Wuen smiled bitterly and said, "Where to withdraw? Halie? There are devastated."
Pugu whispered: "We won't watch our friends be bullied. Believe me, Wuen, the meat fans will not sit still, because after sitting still, the next target of Mingren will be us."
"Yi Siya said that Ming people hope to get along with us in a friendly manner, but... Mei'ergan's ambition ruined all this."
