Chapter 415: Back to Rescue Daming

Li Guodong was extremely surprised to receive the news of the Qing army's invasion: According to the original historical trend, the Qing army invaded the Ming Dynasty last year, but now there are some changes. Huang Taiji failed to conquer Mongolia, and the Qing army did not invade the Ming Dynasty last year. This year, he came to the west to fight against Mongolia and was defeated again, so he simply returned to Liaodong through the Ming Dynasty!

"Jiannu simply regarded our Ming Dynasty as his home! Come whenever he wants, and leave whenever he wants! Now, we have been defeated by us, retreat to Liaodong, and have to pass by the Ming Dynasty along the way!" Han Dashan said angrily when he heard the news, "The Ming army is hopelessly rotten!"

"Not only the army is rotten, but the entire political situation is rotten, and it is rotten to the bottom. Unless Taizu reborn, kills a group of corrupt officials, kills a group of nobles, abolishes a group of vassal kings, distributes the land to farmers, collects commercial taxes, and reduces the agricultural taxes, otherwise Zhuge Kongming will be unable to save him when he comes." Li Guodong sneered.

"If it weren't for my brother, I'd been to Jiangnan, I would never have imagined that the people in the northwest would be in poverty, but Jiangnan would be prosperous and prosperous in singing and dancing!"

He Xing asked, "Brother, what should we do next?"

"Let's go back to the Ming Dynasty. I want to meet King Lu Yan from the thieves. No matter what, let's drive Jiannu out of the Ming Dynasty first." Li Guodong said.

The Khalkhas could no longer count on them. After the Qing army retreated, the Khalkhas returned to Mobei, and the Weilas also returned to Moxi, and brought most of their god warriors back together. However, Li Guodong still spent 10,000 taels of silver to buy 500 god warriors from the Weilas. Now only the Tumotes of Omubu and the Chahars of Ezhe were left on the Hetao grassland. So Li Guodong went to Ezhe's golden tent.

Walking into the golden tent of the Mongolian Khan, Tumot Khan's Omubu was also inside.

Li Guodong queered and said, "Jiannu invaded the Ming Dynasty, I hope the two khans can send troops to rescue the Ming Dynasty!"

Omubu asked, "What are the benefits of sending troops?"

"Two great khans, Jiannu, invading the Ming Dynasty, threatening the capital area. If the Ming Dynasty falls, can you Mongolians survive the threat of Jiannu? Your lips are dead and your teeth are cold. The two great khans should understand."

Omubu hesitated for a moment before speaking: "General Li, thank you for helping us regain naturalization, but we have too few Tumotes. If you follow the general and go to the Ming Dynasty to fight against the Jurchens, you will be afraid that there will be too much loss. When the Jurchens come back, our naturalization will not be guaranteed."

Ezhe sneered: "Omubu, do you think that if the Jurchens were killed and returned, naturalization could still be defended? If you don't send troops, I Ezhe is willing to send troops! Although we Chahar people only have 10,000 string-controlling men left, but in the Ming Dynasty, we Chahar people should help us!"

"Okay!" Li Guodong bowed his hand, "The Khan is willing to send troops to help, and Li will naturally ask the court for a reward for the Khan. Before sending troops, when I report to the court, I will say that the Mongol Khan will bring troops to rescue him."

Li Guodong sent a messenger back to the Ming Dynasty to deliver letters to the capital. At the same time, he also sent people to find Lu Xiangsheng, saying that he had convinced the Chahar people that the Mongolian Khan Ezhe would lead 10,000 Mongolian cavalry, follow him, and enter the Ming Dynasty to drive away the Qing army. Although the Chahar Mongols' combat effectiveness was far less than that of the Manchu Eight Banners and the Han Eight Banners, it was still no problem to deal with the Mongolian Eight Banners.

The letter sent to the capital was not returned. When he learned that the Mongolian cavalry was willing to enter the Ming Dynasty to assist in the war, the court quarreled endlessly. Some people opposed it, and some agreed. After a long quarreling, no one could argue. However, Lu Xiangsheng replied quickly. Lu Xiangsheng said that he would ask Li Guodong to take the Mongolians back to the Ming Dynasty for rescue. As for what happened to the court, Lu Xiangsheng could bear it. There was one thing above that Li Guodong was asked to supervise the Hars and not robbed the Ming Dynasty.

Li Guodong took Lu Xiangsheng's reply letter and went to Ezhe. After reading the letter, Ezhe said, "Please rest assured General Li, I will restrain my subordinates and will not let them rob in the Ming Dynasty."

"Actually, Xuanda has nothing to rob. He encountered a natural disaster and was already so poor that he was so poor that he robbed him again. Jiannu came to rob him twice. What else could he robbed him?"

"Since there is no gold, silver and treasure, why did the Jurchens still rob Xuan Da?"

"For the sake of the population! They need to plunder the Han people and rush into Aha, plant food, produce weapons, build firearms, and make gunpowder! On the other hand, it is to give the dying bandits a chance to breathe, so that they can use the bandits to destroy the Ming Dynasty, and they take the opportunity to profit from it and steal the whole world!"

"Wait—" Ezhe gasped, "Huang Taiji is so scheming!"

Li Guodong's Ming army and Ezhe's Mongolians were preparing to send troops to rescue the Ming Dynasty, and the army was ready to go before the expedition. The Mongolian beef, mutton, jerky and cheese, the Ming army carried cooked cakes and braised meat pieces, and all the food was carried with them, and each person brought food for seven days.

At this time, we sent troops back to rescue the Ming Dynasty. It was enough time for Ezhe to send all 10,000 troops to be cavalry. Li Guodong sent the chariot camp back to the siege, and brought three thousand cavalry and three thousand camel infantry, as well as the five hundred god warriors bought from the Wei Lats, leaving Naihua to set off for a busy schedule. It only takes four days to return to Zhangjiakou, and up to five days to reach the end. According to Li Guodong's requirements, he must return to the Ming Dynasty within four days. As long as he goes back, the food and grass supply will be seized from the Qing army.

All the car camps that did not carry large transportation volumes are because the Xuanda area has a complex terrain and mountainous hills, which is not conducive to sledding activities. Moreover, the Xuanda area has a hotter climate than outside the border and is drier, so there is probably no snow in many places.

Walking on the road, Ezhe asked with some concern: "General Li, we only brought seven days of food for food this time, and it will take four days from naturalization to Zhangjiakou. In other words, when we enter the territory of the Ming Dynasty, there will be only three days of food for food. General Li, can you get food and grass?"

"Jiannu entered the Ming Dynasty to plunder and his troops were dispersed. Moreover, Jiannu was not like you Mongols. The Eight Banners of Manchu and Eight Banners of Han all needed to carry food and supplies. We found an opportunity to attack Baoyi Aha's baggage team and we could grab the food." Li Guodong replied. He didn't even think about getting food from the Ming officials. He arrived at a city and hoped that the officials in the city would send food and grass? During the Jisi change, the officials of the Ming Dynasty dared to deduct the food of the King's army. What's more, the Qing soldiers had not arrived in the capital yet and came to the capital to ask for food, so they could only be turned away. Therefore, Li Guodong decided to give it to us without food or clothing.

This time, the Qing army had not had much force. Li Guodong led his army to Zhangjiakou. The Qing army did not send troops to station in Zhangjiakou. Li Guodong and Ezhe's 16,000 troops easily entered the pass without any effort.

After the Qing army invaded, they entered Xuanda to rob, but after entering Xuanda, the Qing army's sled carts could no longer be used. In the dry Xuanda area, there was very little snow. Kong Youde and others could only install wheels on the sled carts and restore it to large trucks to use, but in this way, the marching speed of the Han Eight Banners Army was much slower.

But Li Guodong did not want to trouble Kong Youde and the others. After all, he fought with the Jin Dynasty for many years and suffered the biggest losses due to the Eight Banners of Han. Naturally, Li Guodong would not touch the hard nail of the Eight Banners of Han, but planned to attack the Qing army's food, supplies and materials storage place.
