Chongzhen Chat Group

The outsiders who escaped into the tropical rain forest were hunted down by local indigenous people as their guides, and their fate was predictable. Although Shivera was not caught, it was probably a matter of time. Liang Xiaozhen reported this situation to Emperor Chongzhen through the chat group and requested an order to also launch an attack on Goa.

On the Lion Kingdom side, due to the brutality of the Portuguese colonists, the Ming army had the help of the indigenous people, and the offensive was unexpectedly smooth. This satisfied Emperor Chongzhen, so he approved Liang Xiaozhen's request and began to attack Goa as well.

As for Colombo, Emperor Chongzhen no longer planned to enfeoff vassal kings. Instead, he regarded Colombo as a province of the Ming Dynasty and planned to directly send officials to manage it.

Now that the Lion Kingdom has been captured, the Ming Navy's military frontiers can reach the Arabian Sea and even the Red Sea. When we go back to deal with the Mughals, should we film the troops landing in Bombay and cooperate with the Bengal side to attack from both sides? Anyway, there is a chat group system, so no matter how far away they are, there is no problem in cooperating in combat!

When Emperor Chongzhen was thinking about this, Zasak Tuhan Norbu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Although the situation in Tsarist Russia was not very good, he finally got a reply.

At this time, Tsarist Russia's main enemies were actually Poland, Sweden and other countries to the west of them. Sweden blocked Tsarist Russia's seaport, and Poland was even more powerful. It dictated the position of the Tsar and even sent troops to intervene.

Just a few years ago, the two sides fought a big war. In the end, the two countries signed a fourteen-year contract. Tsarist Russia ceded a large area of ​​territory to Poland, but Poland also recognized Mikhail as the tsar.

It was also because of the signing of this agreement that Poland released Tsar Mikhail's father, Patriarch Filaret. As soon as he returned home, he became the actual controller of Tsarist Russia and began to rule Tsarist Russia with an iron fist. It was at this time that Tsarist Russia actually ended the "era of chaos" that had begun since Ivan the Terrible.

Archbishop Filaret's first priority was to revitalize Tsarist Russia. Several countries in the west were strong enemies. He had no choice for the time being, so he plundered supplies from Siberia on a large scale to enrich his country's strength. But I didn't expect that the great country in the east would also send troops to declare its sovereignty over Siberia, destroying the troops it sent and driving them away.

Originally, he really couldn't compete with the big Eastern countries in faraway Siberia, and he was kind of powerless. Unexpectedly, the rise of Oirat Mongolia gave Tsarist Russia another blow. Not to mention the Far East, there was no way to plunder supplies from any closer place, or the supplies plundered were in vain a benefit to Oirat Mongolia.

This is tantamount to truly cutting off the lifeline of Tsarist Russia's revitalization. How could Patriarch Filaret endure this!

It was against this background that Tsarist Russia and Mobei Mongolia united to raid Oirat Mongolia. The result satisfied Patriarch Filaret, and a lot of supplies were looted. But he didn't expect that the big country in the east would send troops to intervene in this matter again, and even wipe out the Mobei Mongolia.

This incident caused a slight shadow in his heart. However, he was certain of one thing. Tsarist Russia was too far away from the great eastern countries. If the great eastern powers wanted to send troops to attack Tsarist Russia, the cost would be too high. There had never been such a thing in history. Therefore, he did not believe it. The Eastern powers will come to retaliate against Tsarist Russia, so don't worry about it.

However, this time, Patriarch Filaret received a notice from Norbu who sent people over, saying that the Ming army was found in his territory and refused to accept them at night. This time, he was a little panicked. That big country in the East is crazy, calling from so far away?

Naturally, he didn't know that the Emperor of Ming Dynasty once said: "Anyone who offends our Ming Dynasty will be punished no matter how far away!" If he knew, he probably wouldn't think so.

Patriarch Filaret still attaches great importance to the affairs of the great Eastern countries. After all, Norbu's remnant soldiers still had tens of thousands of soldiers, and they were an army that could not be ignored. Therefore, he quickly sent people to reply to Norbu, stabilize Norbu, and prepare to join forces again to deal with the possible Eastern powers.

The reason why it is said to be possible is because the information received so far is that the great eastern country has sent out troops at night. This is only harassment at best and is far from a threat. Seeing that the cold winter is coming soon, it is impossible to fight a big war at this time anyway.

It was this realization that made Norbu feel truly relieved. He began to order the migration to be stopped and to spend the winter first. To the panicked tribes, he reassured: "If the Ming army comes over, Tsarist Russia will send troops. And there is also good news. The patriarch said that he also sent envoys to persuade the Crimean Khanate and Turkey in the south. If the Ming Dynasty really wants to attack, let them also send troops, and several countries unite to deal with the Ming army together, I don’t believe it, then they can’t defeat the Ming army!”

Speaking of which, the relations between Tsarist Russia, the Crimean Khanate and Turkey are not bad. Tsarist Russia had done this before when dealing with Poland, but this plan did not come true due to various reasons.

Hearing the Great Khan's comfort, his tribe felt relieved. If the Ming army dares to chase them again next year, there will definitely not be many troops that can come over. But here, several countries have joined forces. I really don’t believe that they can’t defeat them!

However, they ignored the fact that, in other words, the future famous general was not known to anyone at this time. Therefore, they began to camp with confidence and prepare for the winter.

More than a hundred miles away from them, the Ming army's Ye Bushou also began to converge. Ye Bu, who were searching for news from all directions to the west, gathered together eight hundred riders. Several general banner leaders gathered together, but they were led by a young man. This young man can be said to be extremely young. He is less than seventeen years old, but he already has seven years of military experience.

Not only that, he also has very rich experience. He participated in the Ming Dynasty's battle against the Tumote tribe in Hetao and eliminated Lin Dan Khan; he participated in the Ming Dynasty's counterattack against Liaodong and the battle to destroy the country, etc. He studied at both the Junior Military Academy and the Senior Military Academy in the capital. I also trained in the New Army, and my results were all excellent. Moreover, he had heard and heard of Hong Chengchou, the great official of the Ming Dynasty. The most important thing that cannot be ignored is that he was a person whom Emperor Chongzhen valued very much.

No matter who he is, he knows that his future is limitless. He is Li Dingguo.

An older Han general said to Li Dingguo: "General Li, we have done enough research on the situation. Now that the severe cold is coming, it's time to go back, right?"

"In a few days, it will probably snow. The weather will be very bad!" Another general bannerman of the Oirat tribe also echoed, explaining the situation.

Li Dingguo did not speak immediately. He seemed a bit out of line with his age. He looked a bit mature. He just lowered his head and thought deeply.

Several other people saw him and knew that he had an idea, so they remained silent and waited for his decision.

They all know that if it were not for the age restriction, Li Dingguo would already have a military rank above guerrilla level based on his experience and achievements. It is also for this reason that this time, several general banners were given military orders before setting off. Li Dingguo was the leader in everything, and he would choose the opportunity to act.

In fact, Yang Sichang, the governor-general of Tianjin Province, felt that Li Dingguo was still too young and would not have issued such a military order. I heard that the emperor gave the order directly and the governor had to obey it.

After waiting for a moment, Li Dingguo suddenly raised his head, with a look of determination on his young face, and said to the general bannermen surrounding him: "Norbu feels that the severe cold is coming, so stop and prepare for the winter; you guys I also feel that the severe cold is coming and we should go back to rest. Right?"

"Yes, yes!" Several other people listened and nodded subconsciously. But when he came back to his senses, he seemed to feel something and couldn't help but frown slightly.

Li Dingguo didn't seem to see the reaction on their faces, but continued: "During the time we were following them, we know that their tribe has no morale at all, right?"

In this regard, these people present can be selected, naturally they are all experienced Ye Fushou. Therefore, they nodded again and responded: "It is true that the army has no morale, otherwise, we would not have seen us, just tens of thousands of people, starting to migrate!"

After hearing this, Li Dingguo said decisively: "In that case, why don't we take them by surprise and attack them unprepared? Let everyone think that we just stay up all night and go back to rest when the severe cold comes, and give them a hard blow!" I will go back after doing some good work, and it will also be able to build momentum for my army's western expedition. What do you think?"

Hearing this, several general bannermen couldn't help but look at each other, and then the older Han general bannerman remonstrated: "General bannerman Li, we only have 800 cavalry, and the enemy has ten thousand or twenty thousand horses." , even if we don’t count women and children, there are probably about 10,000 of them. The gap is so huge, how can we fight?"

The other general banners all nodded, but the difference in the numbers was too big, a bit unrealistic.

On the other hand, one of the general bannermen of the Oirat tribe immediately turned red after hearing this. He gritted his teeth and nodded, saying: "General bannerman Li is going to fight, and I am the bannerman to accompany him. We must make them pay with their blood!"

Needless to say, his relatives must have been killed by various tribes in Mobei in a sneak attack a few years ago.

Li Dingguo glanced at him, nodded, and then looked at the other people. He was not angry, but said calmly: "In the sixth year of Yuanshuo in the Western Han Dynasty, Huo Qubing, the hussar general, was seventeen years old, but he only had eight soldiers. Hundreds of Qingqi raided thousands of miles and captured 2,028 enemies, including Xiongnu prime ministers and officials in charge. They also killed Chanyu's grandfather, Ruohou Chan, and captured Chanyu's uncle Luo Gu. Compared with others, he is the best in the army."

Having said this, he stared into the eyes of several people and said: "Now we also have 800 cavalry, and we are still recruiting elites at night, but the enemy opposite is just a group of defeated dogs with no morale. Back then, the hussar generals could do what we Why are you afraid of tens of thousands of people?"

Although other general bannermen did not study like Li Dingguo, they had heard of the deeds of General Hussars at that time. At this time, I heard Li Dingguo's detailed introduction again, and imagined that the hussar general of that year, with his weak crown, led eight hundred light cavalry to rush thousands of miles and destroy the royal court of the Huns. Compared with such great achievements, indeed, the situation they have to face now, although similar, is much less difficult.

While they were thinking about it, Li Dingguo raised his voice and asked loudly: "It's the right time to make great achievements, it's the right time to honor your ancestors, and you're a real man. Why are you hesitating about such a good opportunity?"

Hearing this, several general bannermen became obviously excited. They originally had military orders to follow Li Dingguo's lead. Now that they knew that there might be an opportunity to make great achievements, they no longer hesitated. They became serious one by one and responded to Li Dingguo. Dingguo said: "General Li Qi, I listen to you, let's do it!"

"Yes, Mr. Li Qi, just tell me how to do it, right?"

"..."

If Li Dingguo ordered them forcibly, it would be okay because there was a military order in advance. However, in this kind of war involving less and more, no matter how favorable it is, whether one's own soldiers can have high morale and subjective initiative will still have a great impact on the situation of the war. Therefore, Li Dingguo said so many words to convince them.

Now that he had convinced the general banner, Li Dingguo summoned the entire army, glanced at the eight hundred elite soldiers, and said solemnly to them: "I joined the army when I was ten years old, and it has been seven years now. I have been to Lin Dan Khan's palace. "I have seen his body; I personally participated in the Battle of Hetao..."

Hearing him suddenly say this, the soldiers of the Ming army couldn't help but feel a little puzzled. They were ready to go back. What were they talking about?

Even the general bannermen were puzzled. Why did they suddenly talk about this if they had already made a decision? They also couldn't understand why Li Dingguo wanted to talk about his experience.

"...I, the elite of the Ming Dynasty, are the new army!" Li Dingguo ignored it and continued, "I also participated in the training in the new army camp, and all the assessments were excellent; the junior military preparation hall of the capital, others were one year old I have completed what I have learned in three months and passed the exam..."

Some people know about Li Dingguo's experience, and some people don't. At this time, people who knew it or not couldn't help but express admiration when listening. Because they know that Li Dingguo's achievements are not something ordinary people can achieve.

"After I came out of the new military camp, I participated in the Haizhou War when the Ming Dynasty counterattacked the Jianlu. At that time, our army made a false shot in Daheishan, successfully mobilized the Jianlu to leave the nest, and captured Haizhou in one fell swoop. Later, the emperor personally led the expedition, and I also Follow along and participate in the battle to build the captives and destroy the country..."

Listening to Li Dingguo talking about these past events, at this moment, these elite Ye Buzai all forgot that the person speaking in front of them was actually just a seventeen-year-old boy. Their eyes were full of admiration and envy for Li Dingguo.

After Li Dingguo finished talking about his experience, he suddenly raised his voice and said loudly: "This time, I found a good opportunity to make my wife a wife and honor my ancestors. Are you, the elites of the Ming Dynasty, willing to take it with me? "
