Chapter 275 Huangsha Mengjiayu

Time flies, and it is the end of March. At this time, the grass is growing and the beards are flying, and the spring breeze has already blown green the vast grassland. In more than ten days, Mobei, with changing winds and clouds, finally ushered in a brief tranquility.

The war has been temporarily over, but for Tiemo, there are still many troubles. Although the Ola expressed surrender, some of the tribes had a big question mark. The generals discussed and decided to send Org to station troops in Juyanhai. At the same time, Ruan Sangou defended the new Guining and controlled Langshan.

Tie Mo was a little worried about Ruan Sangou because he was too young and had no prestige. But now he really couldn't find a more suitable person. After the incident of Monkey Monkey, Tie Mo deeply realized the importance of stability. Guining City is important, connecting the north and south. Guining's garrison can have a poor ability, but he must be absolutely loyal. In short, things like Monkey Monkey Monkey cannot be used anymore.

Originally, the first thing I considered was Shahua. Shahua was steady, scheming and prestige enough. But when I consulted him, I said that I was unwilling to go to Guining City. Shahua seemed to be more willing to lead the special forces team to do things everywhere, and I was not interested in such a thing as being in charge of the side. Think about it carefully, if you really want to fight, you really can't live without Shahua, so I threw this burden to Ruan Sangou.

As for Ruan Sangou's original position, he was handed over to Chen Yaofeng. Tie Mo was quite optimistic about this guy who had repeatedly emerged in the war. As long as he trained himself, this guy would definitely become a powerful general who was the only one.

The stall was spread out, and when it came to employing people, Tiemo realized that there were still too few people under his command who could take on great responsibilities. It was rare to have talent. Although he had recruited some people, there was not a real talent.

When he returned to Zhangbei, he received a disgusting news on the second day. Bai Hangu, the former deputy general of Ningxia, led his troops to surrender to Wang Ziyong, and was leading troops to attack Ningxia Military Town. Tie Mo and others were disgusted by this news. Bai Hangu led his troops to attack the places he had once been stationed. This is really ironic. There are still some Ningxia Military Town in the hands of officers and soldiers. If Zhang Cunmeng really wanted to fight, he would be able to fight soon, but he handed over this task to Bai Hangu, which clearly was to hit the court in the face.

The court was naturally shocked and angry, and gave two orders to ask Datong Prefecture and Xuan Prefecture to find a way to suppress this matter quickly. Chongzhen's subtext was also very clear. Without asking for quick elimination of the king's self-use, he would first destroy this guy who kept slandering the court. In Zhangbei, he could imagine how ugly Chongzhen's face was.

Gao Yingxiang's peasant army flocked into Henan and threatened the Central Plains. Chongzhen was not so angry because in Chongzhen's eyes, these people were bandits. But what about Baihan Valley, the deputy general of Ningxia, repeatedly slapped the court in the face, which really made people unable to bear the face.

In this case, Tie Mo could only go to Xuanhua once. As the general of Xuanfu, he has been in charge of Yunfu, which is really unreasonable. This time the court kept issuing official documents, so he had to express his orders no matter what.

On March 24, the third year of Chongzhen, the spring was warm and the northern part of Shanxi. Tiemo took Hai Lanzhu and others back to Xuanhua Town. Now Hai Lanzhu looks like a big house in the back house, and does not avoid others. Hai Lanzhu was born in the Korqin tribe and was smart and virtuous. After a long time, even Aqige and Chang Minyue couldn't say anything.

The command office of the Wanquandu Department, all officials from all over the Xuanfu Office were present. There were many familiar faces here, but there were also many strange faces. To be ashamed, this was the first time since taking over the Xuanfu Office, and I glanced over and found that I couldn't even recognize anyone, which was really a bit embarrassing. Fortunately, with Li Jiasheng, Hei Yunlong and others, I wouldn't be too ugly.

"The court issued official documents several times to urge us to wipe out the bandits entrenched in northern Shaanxi. What do you think about this?"

Although I asked this, I didn't agree with it. According to Tie Mo's opinion, I didn't need to pay attention to the destruction in northern Shaanxi. Now the chaos in Shaanxi is a mess and cannot be solved at all. In the case of poor disaster relief, the bandits are like leeks in the fields, cutting one after another. However, now it is not the time when the Yunfu garrison was in the garrison, and everything is decided by itself. As the general of the Xuanfu, some things have to be discussed with the people below.

After a while, Du Hong, the new deputy general of Xuanfu, said: "My Lord General, my subordinates thought they should respond to the imperial orders. We had no extra energy to deal with the Khalkha tribe and deal with the harassment of Abadai Khan. But now, there is nothing to do in the north, and it is the time to use troops to northern Shaanxi. If we refuse, it would be a little unreasonable."

Du Hong narrowed his eyes, raised his lips, and a slight sarcastic tone. Tie Mo couldn't help frowning. This was a knife hidden in the cotton, and it was soft and thorny.

Tie Mo never felt that everyone in the Xuanfu was the same as him. Even when Hou Shilu was in power, the Xuanfu was still divided into two forces. But he didn't expect that the first time he was in charge of a discussion, someone followed the question and spoke in a slut.

Tie Mo didn't know Du Hong very much. This guy was on duty in Kaifeng. After he was promoted to the General of Xuanfu, he was temporarily transferred to be the deputy general. In theory, such a newcomer, even the deputy general should be a talented person with his tail. This guy is good. Not only is he not low-key, but he can make trouble as soon as he comes.

Before Tiemo could speak, the Black Cloud Dragon sneered in a silence: "General Du, General Du thinks what you said makes sense. Why don't you do this? This is the arduous task of eliminating the bandits in northern Shaanxi. I wish you a victory and annihilation of bandits."

"General Black doesn't have to say that. If the general general asks Du to go, Du is unavoidable. As a general of the court, he eats the king's fortune and shares his worries for the king, how can he stop because of difficulties?"

Du Hong was not affected at all, and his words were righteous. Tie Mo laughed in his heart. He said so beautifully. If I didn’t give you some color, I would really think that Xuanfu was a place for you to go wild. He raised his eyebrows and clapped his hands. Tie Mo smiled heartily and said, “Okay, okay, if I had a few loyal ministers and generals like General Du, why worry about the bandits’ failure?”

"Let's do this, I will ask the court for the orders to lead the troops into northern Shaanxi and wipe out the bandits entrenched on the Hetao Plain!" Tie Mo said this and Du Hong was a little confused. Du Hong's shoulders sank, his hands were a little confused, and he had no idea how to put them, and countless thoughts turned around in his mind. He just said it casually, but he didn't expect to really lead the troops to suppress the bandits, but he had already said it, and he had to admit it.

Du Hong was not afraid of suppressing bandits, but Tie Mo agreed so happily that he couldn't help but think about it. After pondering for a while, Du Hong said, "The General's words are so responsibilities that his subordinates have no choice but to take the order, but should they bring the troops?"

"Well... General Hei is going to station in Zhangjiakou, General Li's cavalry also takes care of the Hanhai grassland, and General Ma also wants to help guard Ju Yanhai... Let's do this, besides these three people, the others will be chosen by General Du!"

Tie Mo smiled, but Du Hong's eyes twitched. If it weren't for his identity, Du Hong would have jumped up and cursed. The entire Xuanfu, only Hei Yunlong, Li Jiasheng and Ma Fang, were the three divisions of Ma Fang, and the rest were not very good. Tie Mo was good, and in one sentence, he would have eliminated all three divisions of troops. Of course, in name, Yunfu also belonged to Xuanfu, but fools knew that the Yunfu army was Tie Mo's private soldiers. Even if Tie Mo sent it to Du Hong, Du Hong would not dare to use it.

Before Du Hong could speak, Tie Mo adjusted his face and glanced at the generals in the room very seriously. "General Du intends to make achievements for the court. I wonder which colleagues are willing to go together?"

Except for Hei Yunlong and others, the remaining dozen generals sat upright and their faces were stiff. They only felt cold on their backs, as if a knife would fall on their heads at any time. At this moment, many people also understood that times had changed, and this was not the time for General Hou to take charge.

General Tie used Du Hong's affairs to force everyone to stand on the side. Du Hong felt a stern. How could he not see Tie Mo's thoughts? At this time, Du Hong was really regretful. If he had known that Tie Mo was so difficult, he would not have been so anxious. He originally wanted to slowly win over these Xuanfu generals, but Tie Mo did not take the ordinary path, took advantage of the situation and forced others to stand on the side.

As expected, only a few people responded to Du Hong's call. Tie Mo immediately remembered these three guys. He was not Hou Shilu. In a chaotic world, if the soldiers under his command were not united, he would not have done anything. In short, the Xuanfu under his rule was not allowed to have such a person with ulterior motives.

"It's so good. With three generals helping me, I believe General Du will definitely defeat the bandits. This time, materials will be consumed in northern Shaanxi. This general will do his best to fight for you!"

Tie Mo choked Du Hong's whole words back with just one sentence. Du Hong almost fainted. What does this mean? This means that when Du Hong goes to suppress the bandits, he will find a way to deal with the logistics and supplies. He will fight for the court. Du Hong is not stupid. Now the national treasury is empty and the treasury is empty. The court can take out 100,000 stones of grain and burn incense.

Why is it difficult to suppress bandits in Shanxi? It is not because the court lacks supplies and is unable to provide disaster relief, and it is also unable to mobilize heavy troops to gather in Shaanxi.

.........

On March 27, Du Hong led nearly 5,000 soldiers to the west. As soon as he left, Tie Mo's face suddenly became cold, "Hmph, I just became the general of Xuanfu, and the cabinet sent someone to fight for power with me. I think General Hou was too kind to them in the past. I really thought that our Xuanfu was easy to mess with and anyone could get into trouble."

Heiyunlong leaned over, narrowed his eyes and looked at the figure who was leaving, "Do you want to send someone to follow me and find an opportunity to get rid of this guy?"

"No, no matter what Du Hong said, he is also the nominal deputy general. If he dies inexplicably, there will be trouble. As soon as he gets dead, there will be other people to take care of him. Some people in the imperial court will not be at ease with us. Who doesn't want to divide the cake of Xuanfu?" Tie Mo shook his head and walked slowly, "Just pay more attention in the future. As for the bandit suppression, do you think Du Hong can really take back Hetao?"

Heiyunlong and others were stunned for a moment, then smiled disdainfully and said, "Just him? It would be great if he could come back alive, and he would take back Hetao? That Zhang Cunmeng is not easy to mess with."

......

Passing by Datong Mansion, Du Hong sent someone to inform him and intended to ask the soldiers and horses of Datong Mansion for help. As a result, Man Gui closed the door and disappeared. Lou Daji and others invited Du Hong's people out like driving flies. Datong, Man Gui sat in a chair and kept scratching his head, "What are Du Hong thinking? Let's help him make Hetao, who do he think he is?"

Man Gui was not so stupid that he couldn't see the situation clearly. Du Hong was clearly sent by the cabinet to fight for power. In this matter, he had to be on the same mind as Tiemo. If Du Hong was allowed to handle the Xuan Mansion, the cabinet would be the first step to build the Datong Mansion.

On the first day of April, Du Hong led his troops to approach Shenmu, but when he arrived, he found that the soldiers and horses stationed in the Datong Mansion, which were originally stationed nearby, had quietly retreated. Du Hong was so angry, what's the matter? I'm here to fight Hetao, it's fine if you don't help, but you'll withdraw the troops and hide behind to watch the fun. What's the point?

Du Hong was furious and sent a document to the capital. The court immediately scolded Tie Mo and Mangui and ordered them to provide Du Hong with the best of their ability. The order was brought down, but Tie Mo and Mangui did not take it seriously and still did their own thing. At the same time, Tie Mo also personally wrote a letter to Chongzhen, telling the whole story.

Although Chongzhen did not have many emperors and talents, he could see through the basic things. At least so far, Chongzhen knew who was close to him. If the cabinet was asked to take away the military power of the Xuanfu, he would have even less say. Tiemo would be arbitrary, at least he would still listen to his Chongzhen's words.

Before he knew it, Du Hong had already led his troops to Mengjiayu. Mengjiayu was located southeast of Shenmu, only fifty miles away. Du Hong did not rush to attack, but the sudden appearance of such a large army of thousands of people in Mengjiayu scared Zhang Cunmeng.

Du Hong was determined to delay as much as he could, but he ignored Zhang Cunmeng's sensitivity. Now everyone under Wang Ziyong regards the Hetao Plain as a golden lump. Anyone who threatens a little, they feel that they can't sleep well. Now an army of thousands of people is lying in Mengjiayu, how can Zhang Cunmeng tolerate it?

Soon, Zhang Cunmeng reported to Wang Ziyong, and Wang Ziyong was even more straightforward and immediately sent a powerful general to attack Mengjiayu. This person was no one else, but Zhang Xianzhong, the one who was the most capable of beating under Wang Ziyong.

Since Zhang Xianzhong defected to the peasant army, he had to lead the way almost every stop, fight bravely and nimble, and soon won the reputation of "Yellow Tiger". Wang Ziyong sent Zhang Xianzhong in hopes that Zhang Xianzhong could defeat the officers and soldiers of Mengjiayu in one battle.

Mengjiayu has dozens of miles of hilly slopes and very little vegetation. When spring comes, strong winds are blowing, and yellow sand is rolling in the air, making people feel pain in their cheeks.

Du Hong ate a mouthful of dust, spitted, and said depressedly: "This broken place is really not something that people can treat!"
