The eldest son of the red mansion

Chapter 574 Stalemate (for Subscription)

After Jirigla and Jiya rushed out of the tight encirclement, they felt like crying when they saw how embarrassed their subordinates were.

They have always been the ones who sneak up on others, but this time they were ambushed and suffered heavy losses. How will they explain to their master this time?
Jirigla thought for a while, and then said: "It is not suitable for us to continue fighting now, why don't we go back and ask the master for our sins."

Seeing that his subordinates really couldn't fight anymore, Ji Ya had no choice but to agree.

So Zhenghuang Banner and Zhengbai Banner joined forces and marched cautiously towards Jia Ke's camp.

At this time, Meng He was standing on a high hill, watching the retreat of these tens of thousands of cavalry, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

This time I used tricks to defeat these people, but it only caused them a small loss, and it would not hurt their muscles and bones. If these people fought desperately and came back to attack my ration teammates, I could only fight them decisively , but I'm afraid there are more losses than wins.

Meng He sent scouts to follow the cavalry of Zhenghuang Banner and Zhengbai Banner for a day or two, and when they saw that they had indeed left, the scouts rushed back to report.

Meng He finally breathed a sigh of relief when he got the news, this time he was safe.

Next, Meng He didn't dare to delay, and took his men, horses, food and grass, and walked carefully to the Tatar camp.

Although Meng He defeated the Zhenghuang Banner and Zhengbai Banner armies this time, Ju Tanma came to report that there were still two men wandering nearby.

These two armies were Zhenghongqi led by Meng Jiake and Zhenglanqi led by Muren.

Meng Jiake, and Muren were all taken aback after receiving the report from Jirigla. They did not expect that the two brave cavalry were defeated by each other in succession.

So the two joined forces and brought tens of thousands of cavalry to the vicinity of Menghe.

He detected the two cavalrymen when they came near Menghe, and now he has a headache.After Jia Ke had subdued the Manchus, the cavalry under his command continued to flow. He had just defeated tens of thousands of people, and another wave came. If this continues, the tens of thousands of his own will not be enough for them to consume.

So Meng He wanted to repeat the old trick, and seduced Meng Jiakehe and Muren several times, but all ended in failure.

It turned out that Meng Jiakehe was the oldest and the most stable-natured among the commanders of the Eight Banners. If others were here, they must have fallen for Meng He's tricks, but this time they met the cautious Meng Jiakehe, which made Meng He Several failures.

However, the tens of thousands of cavalry led by Meng Jiake and Muren did not dare to act rashly, so they were followed by Meng He for more than 100 miles. Seeing that the other party was about to approach the Tatar tent, if this continues, I am afraid It will allow the Tatars to be supplemented with food and grass.

Meng Jiake and Muren discussed it, and they could no longer hesitate, and in order to guard against Menghe's trick again, they decided to launch a surprise attack during the day.

At noon on the second day, Meng Jiake and Muren led [-] to [-] cavalrymen and swarmed down a high slope to attack Meng He's grain transport team.

Unexpectedly, Meng He had seen through the scheme of these two people long ago, and when their cavalry rushed to the middle of the grain team, they realized that this was not a grain team, and the carts were loaded with straw.

The people escorting the chariot were nothing but slaves recruited by Meng He from nearby tribes.

Meng Jiake and Muren were now looking at each other in blank dismay. They had been wandering around Meng He's vicinity, and they hadn't noticed Meng He's little tricks at all, but they still fell into his golden cicada's plan to escape.

Meng Jiake and Muren had no choice but to lead the team back to the camp to hand over orders to Jia Ke.

Besides, Meng He got rid of Meng Jiakehe and Muren, but this time Meng He's team was safe and sound, without any disturbance along the way, and when they arrived at the camp, it was already a few days later.

At this time, the Tatar camp had almost run out of food and grass. If Meng He didn't come back, then it was time to reduce the rations for the soldiers under him.

Arslen Khan was very excited when he heard that Meng He had returned with his men and horses to escort the grain and grass. He personally took all the tribal leaders and generals to meet him at the gate of the camp.

Seeing Arslen Khan standing at the gate of the camp, Meng He immediately got off his horse and trotted to Arslen Khan and the others, knelt down on his knees, "The general has seen the Great Khan, luckily, the food and grass have arrived at the camp .”

Arslen Khan personally stepped forward to help him up with both hands, "I will trouble you this time, and when you succeed this time, you will remember the first merit."

Then Arslen Khan personally helped Meng He to the Chinese army tent.

After everyone came to the big tent of the central army, Arslen Khan was at the top, and all the tribal leaders and generals stood on both sides.

Arslen Khan's face is now flushed, and the previous crisis has been resolved.

"Everyone, today Meng He brought the food and grass back when we were in the most dangerous time. I should remember the first credit."

The people below all agreed with Arslen Khan's words. During this period of time, they were also anxious. They were really afraid that they would be wiped out here by Jia Ke after the food ran out.

"In this case, how about giving Menghejia 300 households?"

Everyone agreed after hearing this.

Meng He also stood up excitedly and kowtowed to Arslen Khan to thank him.

You must know that Meng He is only a general under Arslen Khan. Although there are some followers, they only have more than 100 households. Now adding 300 households to him will almost double his wealth.

After Arslen Khan awarded the rewards, the rescuers set up a banquet, and all the tribal leaders and generals began to feast in the central army tent.

Not to mention that the Tatars celebrated here, but also that Jizhigla and Jiya returned to Jia Ke's camp with the defeated soldiers.

After the two of them settled down, they lingeringly arrived at Jia Ke's Chinese military tent. They looked at each other at the entrance of the tent for a long time, but they didn't dare to go in.

Because since Jia Ke came out of the mountain, he has been invincible, invincible, and has never been defeated. This is a precedent for them.

And Jia Ke is now in the big tent of the Chinese army, and he has already been rewarded by the people below. The battalion that these two people lost back to is now raising funds outside the big tent and dare not come in.

So he ordered people to announce that the two of them entered the account and answered.

Jiya and Jirigra got Jia Ke's message and didn't dare to hesitate any longer, they could only make money.

The two of them entered the big tent, and when they saw Jia Ke sitting in the middle, they hurriedly fell to their knees, pleading guilty.

Jia Ke didn't ask them to stand up, but asked, "What happened? My followers lost so much."

Jirigla and Jiya could only tell Jia Ke what happened in detail.

Jia Ke was silent for a while after listening, then sighed and said: "There are also handsome talents among the Tatars. I underestimated the heroes of the world."

After Jia Ke finished sighing, she said to the two people below: "You two go back to rectify the troops and take a rest for a while, in case you need to use them."

Seeing that Jia Ke did not punish them, the two kowtowed incessantly, and then slowly exited the big tent.

Sitting in the midst of the battle between the Chinese army, Jia Ke felt a little annoyed. He had originally thought about making the Tatars short of food, but in the end he stepped in and defeated them in one fell swoop. It seemed a little naive.

If he led the team to harass the Tatar food delivery team, he would have nothing to worry about, but he was sitting in the middle army, so he couldn't leave easily.

Now we can only continue to fight with each other, but this is also good, in this way, the national strength of both sides will be fought. Although the Tatars are tough, but compared to the national strength, the Central Plains can pull them apart by a hundred and eight thousand inside.

So the two sides continued to confront each other on the grassland. The two sides neither fought nor retreated, just spent there to see who could not hold on the most.

The mind of the Tatars was that they wanted to wait for something to happen to Jia Ke Jingzhong, and Jia Ke had to retreat, so that they could take advantage of the victory and pursue.

And Jia Ke's mind was to wait for the Tatars' national power to decline, and they could not hold on and were forced to retreat, and Jia Ke could easily lead people to defeat them in one fell swoop.

The two sides are now competing for patience and national strength, and it depends on who can bear it, but overall, Jia Ke has the advantage, because after all, the Central Plains Dynasty has rich products and strong national strength.

Although the Tatars have strong military capabilities, their production and supplies are much worse than those of the Central Plains Dynasty. If this stalemate continues, the Tatars may have to retreat northward within a few months.

Not to mention that Jia Ke had a stalemate with the Tatars outside Gubeikou, but that the capital was already in turmoil at this time.

Since Jia Ke left the capital with a large group of people, the clans of the emperor who had been suppressed by Jia Ke, as well as the vested rights holders such as nobles, began to secretly connect.

These people are actually the group of people who hate Jia Ke the most, even surpassing those civil servants and scholars.

It’s all because if Jia Ke changes the dynasty, those gentry will still be able to continue their prosperity and wealth. After all, Jia Ke still depends on them to govern the world. Although there are some losses, they can make up for it within a few years, so these gentry are not very opposed Jia Ke's treason.

But these princes and nobles are different. They have never heard that the current dynasty preserves the nobles of the previous dynasty.

In this way, it is Jia Ke's kindness for them to save their lives. As for property and other things, and privileges, don't even think about it.

So these people have long hated Jia Ke to the bone, but because of Jia Ke's power, they dare not act rashly. Now that Jia Ke has taken away almost all the soldiers and horses in the capital, these people think that the time has come.

Among them, the king of Nan'an County is the leader. These people have contacted several other families of the Four Kings and Eight Dukes, and they have begun to secretly connect.

The royal family is headed by King Zhongshun, who secretly contacted the seniors in the royal family and the princes of various houses after Jia Ke left.

The two groups of them communicated with each other again, and they had reached an agreement to launch an offensive in the capital, expel Jia Ke's men, serve the emperor again, and assume power.

As for Fan Kang in the capital, he had already seen their actions, but he didn't make any moves, and let them connect with each other.

Although Fan Kang did not act, another person was in a hurry. This was Sun Yan, the chief minister of the Military Aircraft Department.

After Jia Ke left, Sun Yan was nominally in charge of the government affairs of the whole country. In this way, he also heard about the rumors in the court during this period. Distraught.

But Sun Yan saw that Fan Kang, Jia Ke's absolute confidant, was still there in a leisurely manner, so he was a little relieved, because he knew that Jia Ke would never leave the capital without making any arrangements, so he made up his mind , Find an opportunity to have a careful chat with Fan Kang, so as not to make a mistake at that time.
