The most typical characteristic of Nurhaci and his nephews, who were slave-building nobles, was that they all wore yellow belts.

As the fifth son of Nurhaci, one of the four great bele of Jiannu, Mang Gurtai naturally wears a yellow belt.

It's just that now he doesn't look like Baylor in the Qing Dynasty drama. Instead, he touches his butt with both hands miserably. Under the supervision of Zhang Gui's servants, he tiptoes to follow Zhang Gui to Tianqi.

Mang Gurtai didn't expect that he would be so miserable. He thought he was just going to kill Zhuangzi. He even thought he was going to make a great contribution, like Mongolia did first, and capture the Ming Emperor and go back. However, he didn't expect that he would be kicked.

The iron plate has directly become someone's prisoner.

If it weren't for the tearing pain in his anus that struck his forehead from time to time, he wouldn't have believed it was true.

"You caught Mang Gurtai! You have made a great contribution."

After Tianqi learned that Zhang Gui had captured Mang Gurtai, he said excitedly.

"Your Majesty is not bad at all. He captured the Dege species, which is also Nurhachi's species. Now, we can capture two Nurhachi species at once!"

Zhang Gui smiled.

Although Degelei is not one of the four Baylors, he is indeed the son of Nurhaci and the tenth son of Nurhaci.

Tianqi nodded and laughed: "Both of us, the emperor and his ministers, have captured Nurhaci's seed!"

"Big victory!"

"Big victory!"

"Big victory!"

At this time, all the Ming troops present cheered.

Zhang Gui was also sincerely happy about this.

He was now completely convinced that Jiannu was not that powerful and invincible.

As long as the Han people can fight against the slaves without fear of death, obey orders and prohibitions, and unite as one, they will not have to worry about defeating this fishing and hunting nation with their more advanced technological accumulation.

Zhang Gui also had to admit that the biggest enemy that really led to the destruction of the country and the family was still within the Ming Dynasty, among the people of Eguan Bo.

Because to be honest, without these Han scum inside, it would be very difficult for these slaves to enter the customs.

Therefore, it is difficult to guard against domestic thieves.

In any case, the tens of thousands of people Zhang Gui supported by setting up industry in Xishan finally avoided the fate of being massacred by the slaves.

Moreover, the Ming army in Xishan also made the Jiannu who sneaked into the pass from Jizhou for the first time with the help of a traitor end up with no return. This undoubtedly means that the Jiannu will not dare to easily enter the pass again.

plunder.

In addition, this victory also proved that the Ming army in Xishan was a strong army that could defeat even Jiannu. It undoubtedly gave great confidence to the soldiers and people of Xishan, including Zhang Gui himself and Emperor Tianqi.

You must know that since the first month of the first year of Tianqi, the Ming Dynasty has been defeated by the slaves many times, losing three important towns in Shenyang, Liaoyang, and Guangning, forcing one of the managers to commit suicide, and he has long been left with a psychological shadow.

Now, the shadows are swept away.

However, the price was not easy. Many members of the Military Academy's enlisted student corps were killed in battle, and many of them were Jinshi candidates or students who were truly determined to serve the country.

But Zhang Gui felt that this was a worthy death for them, at least it was better than waiting for the country to be ruined and their family to be destroyed, and they had no choice but to throw themselves into a well and die.

"Budang! The Tatars have been defeated, and Xishan has been saved!"

When Mang Gurtai and others were defeated by Jiannu, Sun Yingyuan also learned about the defeat of Jiannu from his sentry at Xishan Camp, and immediately informed Xiong Tingbi of the news.

Xiong Tingbi was quite shocked after hearing this: "The Tatars were really defeated?!"

Sun Yingyuan said anxiously: "How can I hide my humble position from the military department? Now please order the military department to let our Xishan battalion also go to encircle and annihilate the remaining enemies!"

"Your Majesty's army of enlisted students is so brave! The system of training and training students created by our uncle is really effective."

Xiong Tingbi sighed, and then hurriedly gave instructions: "Immediately pass the order from this hall, and the Xishan Battalion will immediately assist in encircling and suppressing the remaining enemies. He also sent orders to all sides to strictly guard against death and not to allow other Jiannu slaves to sneak in for rescue. Who in the garrison area has Jiannu slaves?"

Whoever sneaks in will be punished for collaborating with the enemy! Without military orders, no troops are allowed to leave without authorization! Once found out, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

"yes!"

Sun Yingyuan agreed.

But by the time Xishan Battalion led by Xiong Tingbi and Sun Yingyuan arrived, in addition to helping to catch the fish that had slipped through the net, most of the slaves had been annihilated or captured alive by the military recruits' corps and Zhang Gui's retainers.

Therefore, the Xishan Battalion did not fully display its combat power, which means that the soldiers and horses in the Xishan area did not fully demonstrate their true strength.

"Are you Xiong Butang's soldiers?"

Zhang Cunren, who was stationed in the Dayu River area, had just seen the cavalry sent by Xiong Tingbi to deliver orders to various border towns, and he asked about them.

"Yes, His Majesty has issued an order to appoint our department as the supervisor of the three provinces to control the troops and horses of the three provinces of Beizhili, Shanxi and Shandong."

After the cavalry returned, he asked Zhang Cunren: "I wonder which town the general is from and why he is here?"

After hearing this, Zhang Cunren thought that Tianqi had asked Xiong Tingbi to supervise the troops and horses in the three provinces because he knew that Jiannu was coming. He did not realize that there was anything wrong, so he continued to ask: "Has your Majesty issued an order for all troops to be diligent?"

?”

The cavalryman shook his head.

"Didn't you issue an edict to all troops and horses to work diligently?"

"How can we not issue an edict to all the soldiers and horses to work diligently!"

Zhang Cunren said with some surprise.

The cavalryman didn't want to say anything, but took out an official letter issued by Xiong Tingbi in the name of his commander and said: "This is the Jun order from our ministry. Your Majesty personally led the troops to defeat Jiannu. Therefore, the ministry orders the officers and soldiers on all sides to

We must strictly guard against the enemy and do not allow the slaves to sneak in again, and we must strictly abide by this order. Since the general is here, please take a look."

When Zhang Cunren heard this, he felt as if someone had slapped him with a sap, and he froze on the spot.

He didn't come back to his senses until the cavalry left.

I don't know when Zhang Cunren came back to his senses. Disappointed, he couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: "How is this possible?"

With that said, Zhang Cunren slammed the official letter to the ground, bared his teeth and cursed: "How dare these traitors and untouchables in Xishan win over the slaves!"

Zhang Cunren's general Gao Guanghui was busy asking Zhang Cunren: "Deputy Commander, what should we do now?"

"Go back to Ningyuan! Now the imperial court has won. If you stay in the pass for a moment longer, you will be more likely to be caught entering the pass without the order of the Ministry of War. At that time, you will at least be unable to escape the crime of treason!"

Zhang Cunren shouted in despair: "Go back immediately! Also, don't plunder the people, so as not to give the court an excuse! A court that can defeat Jiannu is not a court we can mess with."

"yes!"

Therefore, Zhang Cunren's troops immediately broke up camp and headed for Jizhou.

As a result, as soon as they arrived in Jizhou, when Zhang Cunren's troops entered Wengcheng, the inner city gate of Jizhou was closed tightly, and many officers and soldiers appeared outside.

Zhang Cunren was shocked when he saw this: "What's going on?"

At this time, Wang Xiangqian, the governor of Jiliao, appeared on the city wall. He looked at Zhang Cunren and others below and asked: "Deputy Commander Zhang, why did you suddenly appear in our Jizhou City? Is there an order from the Ministry of War to transfer you and others to enter the pass?" , or is it His Majesty’s edict?”

Zhang Cunren soon realized that obviously because of Mang Gurtai's defeat, Wang Xiangqian, the governor of Jiliao, was no longer willing to pretend to be stupid and let him easily sneak into Gyeonggi from Jizhou as before. Instead, he wanted to stop him to avoid was blamed by the court.

Xiong Tingbi sent multiple messengers. One messenger had taken a shortcut to Jizhou in advance and conveyed Xiong Tingbi's order. Wang Xiangqian also knew that the imperial court had defeated Jiannu and that Xiong Tingbi had asked him not to release any troops at will. Orders to exit or enter customs.

But now that the imperial troops had defeated Jiannu, Wang Xiangqian naturally did not dare to be careless, so he carried out Xiong Tingbi's orders seriously.

"Wang Butang, I don't know why I have appeared here. Maybe the whole army is sleepwalking. Please do me a favor and let me go back. I will be grateful to you in the future. How about that?"

No matter how dissatisfied Zhang Cunren was, he had to laugh in apology at this time.

Wang Xiangqian ignored Zhang Cunren, but directly instigated Zhang Cunren's generals to rebel: "Your commander entered the border without authorization, falsely conveyed the imperial edict, and attempted rebellion. Are you going to follow suit and not return to the court quickly to show your loyalty? !”

When Gao Guanghui heard what Wang Xiangqian said, he drew his sword and pointed it at Zhang Cunren: "Deputy Commander! We will remember your kindness to us, but we cannot be sorry to the Emperor! You brought us into the customs, so it turned out to be a false imperial edict?!"

As he said that, Gao Guanghui shouted in pain: "Where do you put His Majesty in this way?! My mother has asked us to serve the country loyally since we were young. You also know that we are the most loyal people, so now I can only feel sorry for you!" "

Zhang Cunren's other generals also rebelled on the spot, killed all Zhang Cunren's trusted servants, and tied Zhang Cunren up.

Zhang Cunren didn't react at first. Only then did he react and cursed Wang Xiangqian: "Wang! I fucked your ancestors! You civil servants really don't have any good things! Despicable! Shameless! When I entered the customs, why? Didn't you stop? The door was wide open. Now you have stopped me again, and you have tricked me into the Wengcheng, and instigated my subordinates to rebel against me. You are just seeing His Majesty's great victory over Jiannu, and you are anxious to protect yourself! But Your Majesty is wise, so don't I think His Majesty doesn’t know your tricks, but if you wait, your end will not be much better!”

"How outrageous! You are still so stubborn at this time, and you are slandering Shangguan! I will definitely join you!"

Wang Xiangqian scolded Zhang Cunren loudly, and next, he had Zhang Cunren escorted to the imperial court.

"Our ministry said that Zhang Cunren suddenly appeared in Jizhou without the military order or the imperial edict, so we had to lock it up before the emperor and ask your Majesty to make a decision."

As soon as Zhang Cunren was taken to Tianqi, the people sent by Wang Xiangqian reported to Tianqi.
