I, the grandson of the second emperor of the Ming Dynasty, earned 100 million taels at the beginning

There are not only Tatar soldiers on it, but also some herdsmen shuttle back and forth.

In the open space on the Tatar side, there are even herdsmen grazing cattle and sheep.

The old man even saw a few Ming soldiers running to the opposite side, gesturing to set prices, and discussing the purchase of cattle and sheep.

Zhu Gaoxu, who was following the old man, wiped his eyes vigorously.

"Why is it different from what I imagined, this kid won't cooperate with the enemy!"

The old man raised his hand and gave him a slap.

"If you cooperate with the enemy, he will not cooperate with the enemy!"

Zhu Gaoxu's heart tightened, and he smiled awkwardly.

"Father, I am the prince of Daming, how could I collaborate with the enemy!"

The old man glanced at Zhu Gaoxu who was laughing dryly, and groaned twice but ignored him.

He knows best whether he has colluded with the enemy or not.

He really thought that Jinyiwei and Yueyingwei in his hands were blind.

This second child is getting more and more presumptuous. It seems that if he is not taught a lesson, this kid will not be able to remember.

"grandfather!"

Several fast horses came galloping in the distance, and Zhu Zhangui was at the front.

The old man nodded, raised his whip and pointed to the valley.

"Little brat, tell me what's going on!"

Zhu Zhangui looked back at the Tatar camp, and spread his hands helplessly.

"That's what you see!"

The old man frowned, and hit Zhu Zhangui with his horsewhip.

"Speak well, don't force me to slap you in front of so many people!"

Zhu Zhangui was speechless.

"It's like this..."

Zhu Zhangui got off his horse and took the reins of the old man's horse. While Weiqi explained, he walked towards his own camp.

At the beginning of March, Alutai suddenly sent 3 troops to attack the Ming army's position.

Zhu Zhangui thought this was the beginning of a difficult bloody battle.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he ordered the firing, Arutai withdrew his troops and went back.

After the sentry reported, Zhu Zhangui knew that he had been tricked by Alutai.

Alutai sent troops to fight, not to fight Zhu Zhangui to the death.

Instead, they used the dispatch of troops as a cover to let the herdsmen who rushed over enter the barracks.

In ancient times, it was very time-consuming to go out to battle.

In addition, both sides are defensive, and their eyes are always fixed on each other.

Therefore, during the time when the Tatar camp sent troops, Alutai introduced his herdsmen, including the herdsmen of Wala, into the military camp.

Now there are 10 kilometers behind the opposite mountain, all of which are Tatar camps.

Zhu Zhangui conservatively estimated that there were at least 30 people, men, women and children.

Being tricked by Zhu Zhangui, he must be upset, and wanted to order a few cannonballs to relieve his anger, but the light artillery could not reach the opposite position.

Send troops to fight, it is a waste of military power for no reason.

So this dumb loss can only be eaten, and at the same time, he scolds himself in his heart that his battlefield experience is still too shallow, and compared with these old foxes, he is still too far behind.

After listening to Zhu Zhangui's narration, the old man didn't say anything, but Zhu Gaoxu's eyes widened.

"What, the herdsmen have been taken over, so the third child has made a trip in vain."

Zhu Zhangui looked at the old man suspiciously.

"I sent your third uncle to attack the Oirat camp, but it seems that he is going to miss out."

During the conversation, a group of people came to the camp on Youfang Mountain.

Since the mountain area on the right is small, unlike the vast land occupied by the Tatars on the opposite side, the main force of the Ming army was stationed directly on the mountain.

A group of people came to the command room on the top of the mountain. The old man took the telescope handed over by Zhu Zhangui and observed the situation on the opposite side.

Most of the front of the mountain is the Tatar army, and occasionally a few herdsmen drive their livestock through it.

There are mountains blocking the back of the mountain, and I don't know what the situation is, but according to Zhu Zhangui's report, there should be the herdsman camps of the Tatars and Oirats behind.

"How's the terrain over there? Is there a chance to attack!"

"There is no chance. Alutai stationed the army on the outskirts of the camp, protecting the herdsmen to death."

"Such a big place can't accommodate their livestock!"

"They were all killed and made into fur and jerky, leaving only the breeding sheep and bulls, as well as some dairy sheep and cows that maintain daily dairy food."

"As for food, they probably have no shortage."

"Some time ago, there was non-stop food on the opposite side, which was transported from the grassland. It seems that the other party's race should be from the Western Regions!"

The grandpa and grandson were lying on the observation deck, asking and answering about the situation on the other side.

"People from the Western Regions!"

The old man turned his head and looked at Zhu Zhangui for confirmation.

Zhu Zhangui nodded.

"We have caught a few tongues, and after interrogation, it seems that people from the Western Regions know that our side has pitted all their legions, and they are full of deep hostility towards us!"

"I don't know how they discussed with Alutai. The opposite side is not sending troops over, but has been delivering food some time ago."

"According to our estimation, those grains are enough for Alutai to feed for at least half a year!"

Speaking of this, Zhu Zhangui is a little ashamed.

"I also thought about sending someone to sneak attack their food delivery team, but I didn't have anyone under my command who was familiar with the grassland environment. Not only did I not succeed when I went out a few times, but I was almost eaten by the other party."

The old man reached out and patted Zhu Zhangui on the head.

"You are still young, it is not easy to know how to fight at sea, learn slowly in grassland warfare!"

Grassland combat is really a deep knowledge, which cannot be learned after one or two battles.

The old man has studied with Xu Da, Lanyu and others for half a lifetime, and only then has he acquired the invincible ability to crawl and roll on the grassland.

In this way, the old man has gone to the north five times in history, and three times he has missed it.

After comforting his grandson, the old man looked at the situation opposite and said.

"After cleaning up Arutai, our grandparents will go to the Western Regions later."

"These mixed-race bastards have been a little drifting in recent years."

"It just so happens that I have been greedy for the Silk Road for a long time, so I took this opportunity to take it directly."

Zhu Zhangui agreed with this move.

When I watched the video in my previous life, didn't I have something to say.

The ancestors did not attack the Western Regions for the raisins.

"Grandpa, I heard that Chen Cheng, a member of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, just came back from the Western Regions the year before last. He should know the Western Regions very well, so I will bring him with me when the time comes."

The old man chuckled, retracted the binoculars, and patted Zhu Zhangui on the shoulder.

"We grandpa and grandson want to go together. When the time comes, let Chen Cheng and Li Da follow and be our guides. Our grandpa and grandson will have a good taste of the customs of the Western Regions!"

"I heard that their raisins and a kind of melon are good, and I must try them when the time comes."

On the opposite hill.

Alutai looked at the main force of the Ming army who was camping opposite, and heaved a sigh of relief.

"Zhu Di is finally here. If he doesn't come, he won't be able to cheat the food!"

That's right, it's the food that was cheated.

The food shipped from the Western Regions was all fooled by Alutai with words.

Alutai did not hide from the Western Regions about the destruction of the Western Regions Legion, and explained the situation truthfully.

Although the Western Regions were not happy about this, the reason did lie with their own people, so they could only swallow this bitter fruit.

Later, Alutai sent people to fool around, saying that he was ready to gather the strength of the whole family and fight the Ming army to the death.

It's just that the logistical aspects of doing so could prove to be a huge headache.

The Western Regions are also on the right track.

In order to avenge the destroyed legion and attack Daming's vitality, the guys from the Western Regions discussed it and decided to become fishermen.

Provide food and grass to Alutai, and then sit on the sidelines and watch Daming and Grassland fight to the death.

No matter who is weaker on the two sides, the Western Regions will be the beneficiaries.

The prairie side lost.

The Western Regions decided to use the status of the headman's concubine, the granddaughter of Alutai, to indirectly control the grassland and expand their ruled area.

It would be even better if Daming lost.

They have been coveting this piece of fat in the Central Plains for a long time.

The Han people have dominated the Central Plains for many years, and the prairie people have controlled this area more than once. Now it is the turn of the Western Regions people to dominate.

Even some guys with big brains began to think about what kind of country they should take after occupying the Central Plains.

But after half a year in a row, Alutai only wanted food and didn't sell it.

No matter how stupid the people in the Western Regions are, they don't want to be taken advantage of.

The food supply has been cut off a few days ago, and Alutai is required to launch an attack immediately, otherwise the cooperation between the two will be interrupted.

So far, Alutai has not figured out how to reply to the letter?

Now that the Ming emperor Zhu Di came, this trouble disappeared immediately.

"Mauri boy!"

Seeing the Ming army camping, Alutai stroked his beard and shouted.

The Maoli boy who was accompanying him hurriedly took a step forward.

"Teacher, what are your orders?"

Alutai turned to look at him, took out a letter that had been written long ago from his arms, and handed it to the other party.

"Take this letter and go to the Ming army camp to see Zhu Di."

"After you go, you don't need to say anything, just hand over the letter to them!"

The Maoli boy didn't ask much, took the letter and put it in his arms, turned around and went down the mountain.

"Please see me?"

The old man, who was discussing the attack plan with the generals, looked at Zhu Zhangui with a smile in his eyes.

That meaning is obvious.

See if I guessed right, the old boy Alutai has brought someone over to find out.

Zhu Zhangui smiled and gave a thumbs up.

"Let him in!"

The old man returned to the main seat, waited for the generals to stand on both sides, and waved at the soldiers.

Soon, the Maoli boy strode in with the flag of Alutai.

He looked at the two generals who looked at him coldly, and cast a slight glance at the old man.

When he came here, Alutai had already told him not to look directly at the emperor. Such behavior in Daming was a crime of disrespect, so he could only sneak a glance to confirm whether it was Zhu Di.
