Chapter 108 (2/2)

After inspecting Li Yuanqing carefully, Xu Heizi explained to Li Yuanqing: ”my Lord, the terrain here is very good, but today's time is too short. If we make too much efforts to the official way, we will not have enough time. We can set up some hiding places on both sides of the official road. If there are large stocks of Tartars, we will let them go. If we are small stocks, we can use a stumbling block. ”Li Yuanqing nodded, ”it's OK. We have plenty of time. Don't worry

Soon, the scheme was carried out.

At the edge of the forest on both sides of the official road, the soldiers dug several trenches, piled up several earth walls, and covered them with branches and leaves. In addition, there was a thick snow layer all around. From the official road, it was impossible to detect the abnormality on both sides. However, the soldiers could stay in the trench to rest and keep warm.

In this state, of course, no fire or hot water can be made. But this time, Li Yuanqing had been prepared. The dry food was dry cakes, and he could eat pickles. He had a trench to hide himself from the strong wind. In addition, spring was about to begin, and there was some temperature under the soil layer, which was much more comfortable than that in the heavy snow in the post station.

Unfortunately, one morning, no one passed by, and the soldiers were worried.

Li Yuanqing is very patient. If Guangning city has not been broken, the main force of the later Jin army must be in the periphery of Guangning city. Even if Guangning city has been destroyed, the main force of old slaves is very likely. In Guangning City area, after all, they need time to digest this huge city.

In this way, in the surrounding areas, it can only be scattered troops. These people, once they have won the battle, will certainly inform the direction of Guangning. As long as they are patient, they will have a chance.

But the afternoon was almost over, and there was still no one walking through the official road, which was like a dead land. Shunzi could not help but whisper: ”brother, can the Tartars have gone to fight Liaoxi? They won't go this way in a few days? ”

Li Yuanqing frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and quickly denied shunzi's judgment.

The reason why the old slave made great efforts to win Guangning city was that the position of Guangning city was too important.

At this time, the Mongolian tribes did not completely submit to the later Jin Dynasty. Most of the tribes were still afraid of the heavenly power of the Ming Dynasty and recognized the Daming as orthodox. Only the Horqin tribe, which had the earliest contact with the latter Jin Dynasty and had many in laws, was the firm ally of the latter Jin Dynasty.

But the Horqin tribe at this time was only a small tribe. Compared with the descendants of Genghis Khan's gold family, it did not contain much gold at all.

If Guangning was still under the rule of the Ming Dynasty, it would be like a sharp knife, always in the heart of an old slave. How dare he fight against Mongolia?

The Liaoxi corridor is the inherent strength range of guanning army. If the old slaves want to fight and are so close to Shanhaiguan, the court will not be indifferent and reinforcements will be sent.

Although the old slave is arrogant, I'm afraid he may not dare to touch Daming's bottom line at this time. Daming is still a powerful giant after all.

”It should not be possible. Be patient. Let's wait

Looking at Li Yuanqing's calm appearance, shunzi had to put his temper back and put the handle in his hand with boredom.

Just about to prepare for dinner, however, the soldiers looking out from the trees came news. In the south, most of them, about several thousand people, appeared.

The crowd was suddenly nervous.

A tartar with thousands of people?

Li Yuanqing did not dare to neglect, and urged the soldiers to pay attention to concealment. He himself, too, climbed up a branch of a tree to investigate the movement in the distance.

At this time, the sun has set in the west, the direction of the sea, sunset reflected color, although the weather is very cold, but the whole world, are spread in a warm tone.

Soon, the leader of this huge team has also appeared in the field of vision.

To Li Yuanqing's surprise, there were only five or six cavalry in front.

Shunzi's eyes were sharp. He was stunned for a moment, and suddenly said: ”brother, brother, the situation is not right. It seems that this is not the majority of Tartars, but the people of Daming. ”

With the approaching of the team, Li Yuanqing also found some abnormalities. This may be a team of thousands of people, but only five or six people ride horses in front of them. The rest of them are walking. The more they go, the more clearly Li Yuanqing can see. The team is actually some old and weak women and children. They are crying as they walk. Where is the tartar army?

”Brother, what's the situation?” Shunzi was also flustered.

How can we see a large army of refugees here?

Li Yuanqing was vaguely excited. He had already guessed that these refugees might be the booty of the post Jin army, but he did not know how many guards there were in this group.

If less than 100 people, then Li Yuanqing will have a great opportunity.

”Go, send someone to inform the fleet, all young and strong, all ready to land.” Li Yuanqing hurriedly gave an order to a close soldier.

”Yes.” The relatives and soldiers dare not neglect, so they should be careful to slide down from the tree and send orders.

Li Yuanqing said again, ”wait a minute. Send a message to Guan Canghai and ask them to come as soon as possible. ”

”Yes.” The soldiers left in a hurry.

At this time, the soldiers who were looking for information in front of him also rushed over and reported in a low voice, ”my Lord, there are only less than ten people in the front team of Tartars, there is only one real slave, and the rest are traitors of the Han Army flag.”
