Chapter 267: Langshan’s shocking change

The Central Plains is the granary of the world, with countless gentry and vassal kings. After the peasant army conquered Zhushan, it could directly threaten Fangzhou in southern Henan. It can be said that as long as the peasant army is willing, it can at any time lead its troops to the north, attack Fangshan, and then besiege Xiangyang, or directly cross Xiangyang and enter Luoyang to the north.

History has undergone tremendous changes. As a small butterfly flapped its wings, the peasant army crossed the Yellow River earlier than in history, and opened the prelude to chaos in the world two years in advance. When the Central Plains was threatened, the court ordered Zhao Shujiao, Zuo Liangyu, Wu Sangui and others to approach, dragged the peasant army and transferred troops from the Nanzhi army to aid Xiangyang, striving to drag the peasant army to the northern part of Huguang.

It seemed that he had a foreseeable situation in the court that Gao Yingxiang did not stay in Zhushan for too long. Hua Xiaorong's troops crossed Junzhou, attacked Dengzhou, and then took down Xinye in the northern part of Xiangyang. Xinye County was between Xiangyang and Nanyang. Xinye lost, and for this reason, the connection between Xiangyang and Nanyang was cut off. If the troops in Xiangyang wanted to block the footsteps of the peasant army, they had to find a way to open up Xinye.

On the same day, Li Zicheng and Li Yangchun sent troops together and began to march towards Nanyang. The peasant army officially stepped into Henan and began to attack the Central Plains.

......

The Central Plains faced a sudden military disaster, and in the north, there were also wars everywhere. After Wang Ziyong occupied the Hetao Plain, he led his troops to attack the northwest and became famous. However, Datong Prefecture and Xuanfu faced the threat of Abadai Khan and could not spare all their energy to deal with Wang Ziyong. Wang Ziyong was also very smart, stopped at Hequ and did not take the initiative to attack northern Shanxi. In this way, Chen Qiyu, the new three-sided governor, could only be anxious. Although Cao Wenzhao met Liu Ying, Hong Chengchou and others tried their best to send troops to northern Shaanxi, they were all suffering from the peasant army because of their lack of force.

Chen Qiyu had to issue a document to the court, requesting to transfer the border troops of Xuanfu into Shaanxi to cooperate with the bandit suppression. However, this document was like a mud cow entering the sea, without any news. The court's order had actually reached Tiemo's hands, but Tiemo threw it into the stove and burned.

Without solving Abadai Khan, the border troops of Xuanfu would not be able to participate in the quagmire of bandit suppression. They ran to suppress the bandits themselves, Abadai unified the north, and then tortured Yunfu to pieces. Then, wouldn’t his many years of efforts be wasted?

On February 11, the third year of Chongzhen, Liu Guoneng, Tuobuhua and others led a large army to Nanmochuan. At the same time, Zhou Dingshan, Li Jiasheng and Abate also completed the assembly in Mosna, ready to cross Langshan and rush troops to the Tula River at any time.

It can be said that Tiemo is ready to attack Abadai Khan at any time. The contest between Abadai and Gushikhan has also touched the hearts of many people. At this time, Tiemo hopes that Gushikhan can withstand Abadai Khan's attack, although the possibility is very small.

The Oirat king's court, Gu Shihan sat cross-legged on the cushion, looking dullly at the flames in front of him. It has been a long time since the war started. The current situation is really impossible to sleep at all. Gu Shihan is worried that when he wakes up, Oirat will not be his own. The Turgut tribe has withdrawn from the battlefield on the grounds of excessive casualties, and the one who is really carrying the front is his own children of the Uilat tribe.

Abadai was really playing this time, and he actually sent three troops to attack from the north. How long can the Wei Lat troops last? One day or two? In a short time, Gu Shihan seemed to have become more than a teenager, with fatigue in his eyes.

If the Oirat had not split and could work together, why was it to be beaten by Abadai Khan? Thinking about the original glory of the Oirat, I felt very depressed. Soon, Gudler sent someone to send back the news from the front line, requiring reinforcements, otherwise he could only withdraw. This time, Abadai obviously made up his mind and sent out several powerful generals under his command, Holger, Vitu and Maguire, and he didn't seem to be worried about problems in the rear.

The news from Gudler made Gushikhan's heart sink to the bottom. Gushikhan knows Gudler very well. This person is tough and has a sense of arrogance. If he had not been forced to do so, he would not have been in a hurry to ask for reinforcements. But where are there reinforcements? Even if other units respond and send troops, they would not work hard. To this day, Oirat has long been no longer as brave as he used to. Gushikhan knew this very well, but he did not expect that Oirat would be so weak that he actually let Abadai bully at will.

Before, when Gudler sent troops to Tumochuan, he wanted to show his force and intimidate various troops. The most important thing was to deter Abadai, so that he could have enough time to unify the Oirat. But who would have thought that Tumochuan lost a lot in a battle, not only failed to intimidate Abadai Khan, but also allowed Abadai Khan to find confidence in attacking the Oiratai.

Reinforcements? No. If you do nothing, then the only thing waiting for you is death. The lights shaking, and an old man walked in in a thick fur. Seeing Gushihan's frown, the old man smiled and sighed.

"Khan, the news just came from the front that the Han people had sent troops to Nanmochuan, but they stopped stationing their troops and seemed to have no intention of going westward." The old man's words made Gushi Khan even more bitter. Abadai Khan attacked fiercely from the north, and the Han people also ran out to join in the fun.

Of course, the Han people did not want the land of the Oirat, but wanted to stop Abadai Khan's next action. Otherwise, the Han people would not need to station troops in Nanmochuan without taking action. At this time, the Han people only needed to send troops to attack, and the various southern divisions of the Oirat would be quickly dismantled.

Gu Shihan remained silent. The old man in front of him picked up the wine bag and took a sip, "Shan, it's time to choose. This time, Abadai's bastard was determined to swallow us. He would not stop until he achieved his goal. The Ola tribes had their own ulterior motives, and it would be difficult to block Abadai's Khan this time. Next, we either recognize Abadai's status or choose another way."

Gu Shihan slowly raised his head and looked at the old man with a wry smile, "Uncle Dadong, do you really have no other choice?"

"Dahan, you can't hesitate anymore. You know, if there was a glimmer of hope, I wouldn't say this to you!" Looking at Gushihan's vicissitudes of eyes, the old man felt a little reluctant. But there was nothing he could do, now he was on the verge of despair.

Gushikhan respects the old man in front of him very much. Uncle Dadong has been by his side since he was a child. He can become the Oirat Khan and have his current status. Uncle Dadong has made great contributions. Even Uncle Dadong is too old to fight, but Gushikhan has never forgotten the kindness of the other party. All along, the one whom he trusts the most in his heart is Uncle Dadong.

Uncle Dadong didn't finish saying some things, but Gu Shihan knew very well. There were really not many ways to choose. He either bowed to Abadai Khan, chose to destroy, or bowed to the Han people.

What can I get if I bow my head to Abadai? After thinking about it, Gushikhan could not think of a good change to the people. However, whether it was Tiemo, Sunit or Tumot, as long as I surrendered to Tiemo, the people of those tribes had more or less improved. However, as the Oirat Khan, he always couldn't accept it when he bowed to a Han general.

After thinking for a long time, Gu Shihan sighed bitterly, "Uncle Dadong, go and meet the Han people. We can follow the Green Wolf King, but the Green Wolf King must protect our people."

After saying this, Gu Shihan seemed to collapse, his body was depressed, as if he had lost his bones. Gu Shihan knew that when he said this, he would become a shame for the Oirat, and all the glory forged by the King Yesian was ruined. But, what if he didn't do this?

Uncle Dadong raised his hand and wanted to reach out and touch Gushihan, giving him some comfort, but he shrank back halfway. Dahan is no longer a child. He has grown up, and he needs some responsibility to take.

.........

Since the Nanmochuan temporary camp, Liu Guoneng, Orge and others have been stationed for two days since the assembly, and there has been no further action. Liu Guoneng is waiting. Only when further changes occur in the Oirat side will he decide what to do next.

Before coming, the general had issued a strict order. In any case, the minimum guarantee was to take Juyanhai.

After a long wait, the messenger of Gushikhan finally came. Because of the urgent war, Dadong gave up his previous negotiation routines and came straight to the point and pointed out his own requirements.

"General Liu, my Khan intends to follow the Green Wolf King, but the Green Wolf King must save the lives of our people. This is the Khan's last request. If we cannot guarantee this, we will abandon the north and allow Abadai Khan to break in. By then, Abadai Khan will be bigger and will not benefit anyone."

Liu Guoneng frowned, "This matter is very important, and I will not be able to reply to you immediately. I need to ask the Green Wolf King to decide."

"This... please General Liu as soon as possible..." Dadong looked in a difficult situation. It was not that he didn't want to calm down. It was because the situation in Ola was urgent. Just when he came, Gudler had been beaten to retreat for 30 miles. If it weren't for relying on a Shatu River, Abadai would have hit the royal court at this time.

In fact, Liu Guoneng knew that the situation was urgent because of the different Dadong. After dealing with Dadong, he personally rode his horse to Mosna. At this time, Tiemo was in charge of Mosna and prepared his next action plan.

Tiemo was also a little surprised by Gushikhan's surrender, but when he thought about it carefully, it seemed reasonable. Seeing the changes in Sunit and the Neiman tribe in the past two years, Gushikhan could not be moved. Who wouldn't want to live a better life? It would be very difficult to help protect Gushikhan's people. It would not be possible to defeat Abadai in a short time.

Wang Zuo hung his hands in his sleeves and curled up his whole body. Although it was already February, the northern grassland was still very cold. Seeing Tiemo looking over, he quickly pulled out his hand and said, "Actually, we can go according to the original plan. As for how many people we can save, it depends on the will of heaven. We can't let all of us rush to the Oirat land to fight Abadai to the death. Not to mention the fatigue of the journey, just supply is a big trouble. It is really unnecessary to fight Abadai head-on."

Tie Mo nodded slightly. It was really unnecessary to let Gushikhan cause unnecessary casualties. Soon, Tie Mo made a decision, "Reply to Gushikhan and agree to their surrender. We will try our best to delay Abadai. In addition, your troops will stop resting and enter the Oirat territory to the west. If you can, you can help, and if you can, you can retreat to Juyanhai."

Liu Guoneng quickly bowed and said, "Don't worry, General, I know what to do!"

.........

As Liu Guoneng and the troops of the Ministry of Education took action, the various troops from Xuanfu also began to take action. Li Jiasheng and the cavalry of Zhou Dingshan quickly rushed to Langshan, intending to cross Langshan as quickly as possible and attack the Northern Khalkha tribe.

Langshan, since the last time he repelled Abadai Khan's attack, has become a bridgehead for the Yunfu army to fight against the Northern Khalkha tribe. In recent times, fortifications have been continuously built, and the entire Langshan has been built into a wall of iron. Because of the existence of Langshan, the various troops of Beimochuan dare not have any ideas, especially Broho, who is simply honest.

Zhou Dingshan was walking in front of the horse, with a relaxed smile on his face, "General Li, after passing Langshan, we can drive straight into the north Khalkha tribe. If there is any disadvantage, we can also withdraw from Langshan. It is a delusion for the Tartars to take advantage of Langshan."

Zhou Dingshan has infinite confidence. As long as he relies on Langshan as a base, he can ruin the Northern Khalkha tribe.

This was Li Jiasheng's first time to come to Langshan. He had never thought that the Yun Mansion's troops would actually radiate to Langshan. It seems that the Yun Mansion army showed things in Liaodong before, but it was really just the tip of the iceberg.

The army reached the foot of Langshan, but was warned by a rain of arrows. Faced with the sudden rain of arrows, Zhou Dingshan was completely stunned, and Li Jiasheng's face changed drastically, "What's going on? Langshan was taken down by the Northern Khalkha tribe?"

As soon as these words were said, he shook his head. This matter was impossible at all. The only explanation was that something was wrong with Langshan.

Zhou Dingshan had already beaten horses and shouted to the mountain pass, and said angrily: "Listen to the guards of Langshan, I am the general Zhou Dingshan, who is ordered by the iron guard to cross Langshan, why do you shoot arrows?"

After waiting for a while, the Yamaguchi replied: "General Zhou, I'm sorry, the Tartars have recently attacked Langshan, so we have to deal with it carefully. Please forgive me if we offend them. We are ordered by General Xie to guard the Yamaguchi. Without General Xie's order, no one can pass."

"What?" Zhou Dingshan raised his eyebrows and cursed with a gun, "Bastard, I am using Langshan. I have already had a warrant for this matter. When will the warrant of the iron guard be unable to order the soldiers of Langshan?"

"I'm sorry, General Xie's instructions on this matter. We are ordered to act. Please don't make things difficult for General Zhou!"

At this time, Zhou Dingshan suppressed the anger in his heart, "Then please general Xie answer in person!"

"Sorry, General Xie is busy dealing with the harassment of the Tartars and has no time to come!"

Zhou Dingshan narrowed his eyes and looked up at the Langshan Pass. At this time, he had already seen that something must have happened in Langshan, otherwise Xie Kezhe would not dare to do this.

"Retreat first, hum, this Xie Kezhai wants to rebel."
