[Qing Chuan] Five elder brothers intermittent salted fish

In February of the 35th year of Kangxi, the Qing court ordered the troops to be divided into three routes: east, middle and west. Heilongjiang General Sabusu led 3 troops to form the East Route Army. The great general Fei Yanggu commanded 9000 troops to form the West Route Army, which crossed the desert from Guihua and Ningxia, went up the Wengjin River, and cut off the retreat route of Galdan; Emperor Kangxi personally led 4.6 troops to form the Middle Route Army. The upper reaches of the Kherlen River went northward, cutting off Galdan's retreat, and attacking Galdan's army with the East and West Route Army. {3.4}

Yin Qi led the Zhenghuang Banner to lead the way, and there was no wind or waves along the way except for the fatigue of the horses and horses. Although he was the pioneer, the Emperor led the Eight Banners and the Firearms Battalion followed closely behind. Tens of thousands of soldiers, horses and firearms With all the guns and guns available, it is really not cost-effective for anyone who wants to sneak up on them.

It's just that the smooth journey that Yinqi thought didn't last long. The two armies of the Central and West Routes agreed to join forces in Tula, but their Central Route Army still reached the West Route Army in Tula, but they encountered obstacles on their way, and there was no news for a long time.

"Report! There is an order from the Holy Spirit to stay where you are, and you can't leave until there is an order!" The messenger rode on a fast horse, and continued to run forward while shouting.

Yin Qi tightened the reins, turned his head and asked the guards beside him, "It seems that the West Route Army will be stationed to wait for General Fei Yanggu, and I would like to hear the imperial decree telling your commanders not to rush into the front of the army for greed. "

The guard responded and hurriedly grabbed Yinqi's pony and sat down, and only waited for Yinqi to get off the horse before continuing: "Aren't you going back to the big tent in the army to ask why?"

Yinqi glanced at him and said: "We will be stationed on the spot according to the order. If the emperor wants you to know about other things, he will naturally report them. If he doesn't want you to know, why bother talking? Alright, go and inform your commander. Choose a place carefully to camp, don't miss the hour."

Having said that, the guard left in a hurry after receiving the order.Liang Shan took the water bag from his horse, and only followed Yin Qi to a shaded tree before saying, "Brother, drink some water and rest first. I'll leave everything to be stationed to Luyt, and he doesn't give any face to the commander." You, looking at us all day is like looking at prisoners, what do we care about him?"

Yin Qi took the water bag, didn't say much, only took a big sip before handing the water bag back: "You should take a sip too! Talking more and more now."

Liang Shan sighed, instead of ordering water to drink like Yinqi, he resealed the lid of the water bag, and then said: "This Luyte is simply lawless because he has some in-laws with Suo'etu. I want you to be a dignified prince leading troops to explore the way, is it you who are in charge of Zhenghuangqi now or Luyt who is in charge of Zhenghuangqi?"

Originally, he laughed at the elder brother who was in charge of the imperial camp and vanguard camp, but was trapped in the hands of Suo'etu. How did he know that Zhenghuang Qi, who he thought he would be able to escape, was also intervened by Suo'etu.The leader of the Yellow Flag, Ruyter, has made things difficult for him since the first day he entered the camp. He pretended that even a prince should be treated the same as ordinary soldiers, but in reality he tripped him over and over again. son.

If he didn't know that Ruyt and Suo'etu's family were related by marriage, Yinqi would have thought that he had killed the whole Ruyt family in his previous life.

In the army, I couldn't find out the ironclad evidence of Ruyt's blatant blatantness, so I really didn't want to have an attack, lest the incident would make a big fuss and go to Khan Amana, and I would be charged with lax military management and causing trouble for no reason. However, although he said that he was in charge of Zhenghuangqi on the surface, he didn't have much prestige and real power.

Thinking of this, Yinqi sighed again and again. To be honest, Ruyt’s making things difficult is actually nothing. The difficulty is that Suo’etu has moved his mind on him. How could it be so blatant.

He is just a salted fish lying flat, but now he has become a hot-blooded person who everyone wants to step on and step him into the dust.Now that the prince is still in the position of deputy reserve, the elder brother and the prince are very wary of themselves, trying to catch their mistakes all the time.

What if the crown prince is abolished?When the conquest of Galdan came back with a great victory, it was the first time in the history books that Kangxi deposed the prince. By that time, would he still be able to live a good life?He didn't want to fall into the trap of nine sons vying for the heir apparent, and then end up being beaten up by Emperor Yongzheng and his fourth brother's narrow-mindedness so that he wouldn't even be able to be a prince.

The more he thought of this, the more melancholy Yin Qi felt.

The appearance of Cao Luan quickly dragged him out of his worries so that he could face the more realistic troubles of today.

"Fifth elder brother, how is it going after a few months?" Cao Luan tightened the reins, and was listening in front of Yinqi, looking down at Yinqi who was sitting under a tree enjoying the shade, smiling happily.

Yin Qi didn't make a sound, just said: "You are a white flag, what are you doing with our yellow flag?"

Cao Luan: "By the sage's orders, I will take you to the big tent. There are important military affairs in the big tent, waiting for you to go to the fifth elder brother for details!"

Yinqi got up, stretched his waist, let out a sigh of reluctance, and said, "It's fast enough, I haven't had enough rest yet!"

"I'm afraid you won't be able to rest this time!" Cao Luan got off his horse and said, "When Sun Sike's troops under General Fei Yanggu of the West Route Army crossed the desert, they encountered heavy wind and rain for several days. Horses and livestock were unable to move, and water and grass were scarce. Moreover, the soldiers were suffering from hunger and cold, so that they barely caught up with General Fei Yangu on the eleventh day."

While listening to Cao Luan's explanation of the situation, Yin Qi hurriedly asked Liang Shan to bring the horse over, and asked: "There is a shortage of food and grass now, how about the army on the West Road?"

"Staying in Weng Jin to keep food for the time being, General Sun Sike only selected 4000 elite soldiers to report first, and they just arrived today, so Long Live God decreed to stay where they are."

Yinqi took the rein in one hand and turned over and got on the horse. Cao Luan followed closely and said: "General Sun Sike said that Nagaldan burned the grass on the land where the West Route Army passed. I am afraid that General Fei Yanggu will have to divert his route." Alright, so my army in the middle is now in a dilemma."

"No, Galdan is trying to hold back the army of the West Road to seek a final settlement. Now that the army of the Middle Road is stationed here, Galdan must have heard the news. I was exhausted from traveling and horses when I came all the way across the desert. Running around is not conducive to combat, if Galdan makes a surprise attack at this moment, I'm afraid..."

As soon as he thought of Yin Qi, he immediately wanted to whip his whip and report to Khan Ama in the tent of the Chinese Army, but before the whip fell, Ruyt appeared out of nowhere out of nowhere.

"Where is the fifth elder brother going? We have to obey the order of the Long Live God and station there! You are the leader of an army, how can you leave your post without authorization and run away? Come! Go and help the fifth elder brother to come down and rest !" Ruyt said, and he wanted to command people to go up and hold Yinqi's army horse.

Yinqi was originally full of anxiety, but now Ruyter is still slamming the gun, but it is also because Yinqi was silent and hardworking before, he really thinks that Yinqi is a soft persimmon that is easy to handle.Although he is only fifteen or sixteen years old, Yinqi Jiangnan and his party have experienced big storms, and if they really want to explode, what kind of thing is Ruyt.

He only tightened the reins, and said sharply: "Stop me! All the soldiers of the Zhenghuang Banner are resting in place and don't need to be stationed. From now on, we will strengthen our patrols and vigilance. If there is an attack from the Galdan tribe, we will send a clear signal immediately! Commander Rui Make a fuss about nothing and obstruct me several times, tie me up!"

As soon as these words came out, not to mention the soldiers of Zhenghuang Banner, even Liang Shan and Cao Luan were shocked.This fifth elder brother is really, either not moving, or moving is scary.

"I'm the leader of Zhenghuangqi, who dares to tie me up?" Ruyt was taken aback for a moment, but soon realized that Yinqi was just a mascot with no real power, how could he be allowed to be the master of the house.

But he obviously underestimated Yinqi's determination at the moment, Yinqi directly pulled off the yellow belt around his waist, threw it in front of Luyter, and said: "I love Xinjueluo Yinqi, who is the relative of Long Live Yuzhi It’s okay for you to be the commander of the Zhenghuang Banner camp, but can I turn a blind eye to this yellow belt?”

The so-called yellow belt is nothing more than a yellow belt, but this yellow belt symbolizes the identity of the prince of the Tian family, even if they already know Yinqi's identity, seeing this yellow belt is completely different reaction.

All of a sudden everyone was quiet, everyone looked at Yin Qi and the yellow belt lying in the dust, and they were really at a loss.

Yinqi turned his head slightly, looked at the Mongolian soldiers he had brought from Horqin, and said in fluent Mongolian: "Go! Use this yellow tape to tie his hands up. I'll see who dares to untie him!"

"Yes!"

The Horqin tribe belongs to Monan Mongolia, while Zhuang belongs to Moxi Mongolia. The golden family of Genghis Khan originated from the Horqin tribe. Now Galdan controls Moxi Mongolia and gradually annexes the Mobei Khalkha tribe. Horqin belongs to Monan Mongolia is the last barrier.

Since last year, Galdan has sent envoys to the Horqin tribe several times, intending to seek an alliance, but the Horqin tribe has been married to the Qing royal family since the founding of the Qing Dynasty. Once Galdan offended the Qing imperial family!

Because of a letter from the Queen Mother, Yinqi tried his best to mediate earlier, so the Horqin Ministry cooperated very much in this expedition.Because the Horqin tribe was close to Shengjing, it was classified as the Eastern Route Army led by General Sabusu of Heilongjiang, and together with the Eight Banners soldiers from the three eastern provinces, they marched from Suoyue to Qishan.

The Empress Dowager's nephew Horqin Baylor Bakshgur, when parting from Yinqi, had chosen the strongest Bateer (warrior) under his command to accompany him to protect Yinqi, but he did not expect it to be useful at this moment.Even if he didn't attack the enemy first with a knife or a gun, he used it on his own family first.

Yin Qi didn't intend to do that either, but now he is in a hurry, if Luyter is allowed to continue to act unscrupulously, I'm afraid that Galdan will only care about wearing small shoes for himself when he comes to the door of his house!Before the battle between the two armies, everything must be based on military conditions. Even if Suo'etu and the prince were offended this time, today's matter must be done, and this Ruyter must be tied!

If you don't tie him up, Yinqi will never be able to establish any prestige in the Zhenghuangqi camp. If he can't establish prestige, he will really become a mascot. Even in a critical moment, I am afraid that not a single soldier will be at his disposal.

That's the real danger!
