Desert Eagle Suletan Khan

Chapter 997: False Alarm and Building a Navy

The Great Khan is very courageous! He spent all the 200,000 taels he just got from Korea. If the news spread to the Ministry of Revenue, I am afraid that the Minister of Revenue Xue Zongzhou would be very anxious. But the Great Khan did not worry about the Ministry of Revenue. He believed that the elders in the cabinet would have a way. If I have to find a way for everything, what do those elders do? Really courageous! He opened his mouth again and changed Seter and Ayuqi from cavalry generals to naval generals. Regardless of whether they were willing or not, he specially approved a small note to encourage them, "Mongol warriors can not only dominate the land but also the sea. I believe you can lead the navy well to win glory for David!"

After discussing the navy, Sultan glanced coldly at Hada, the first-class Kizil Marquis and the head of the Wuyi Guard, and said to the ministers in a deep voice: "You can leave first, Hada stay." Hearing this, Hada was secretly panicked. He was familiar with the nature of dragons and knew that there would be a storm soon.

As expected, as soon as everyone left, the Great Khan slammed the imperial table and shouted angrily, "Hada, I gave the Wuyi Guard to you to be my eyes and ears. What did you do? The Qing Dynasty's spies sneaked into Liaonan, tricked Gu Si, the garrison commander of Fuzhou, and poisoned Yang Hui, the guerrilla commander of the Liaonan Town Left Camp, and Jin Weifan, the garrison commander of Jinzhou, and you knew nothing about it! This is dereliction of duty!"

"I have failed the grace of the Lord and deserve death. Please, Great Khan, grant me death!" Hada was straightforward. He knelt on the ground and asked for forgiveness. As a friend of the Great Khan in his youth, he knew the temper of this supreme being too well. He would only yield to the weak and not the strong. The more pitiful he sounded, the less likely he would die.

Sure enough, after hearing him asking for death, Sultan's tone immediately softened, "Hada, you are my childhood friend, just like my brother-in-law. Not to mention that it was just an oversight, even if you really committed a capital crime, I will never kill you! In the future, don't ask for death at every turn. There are not many people who can talk to me from the bottom of their hearts. If they all die, who will chat with me and reminisce about our childhood?"

"Ah~ How could I be so worthy of such great love from the Khan? Even if I were to die, I would never be able to repay him!" Hada couldn't help crying after hearing the Khan's affectionate confession. This cry caught the Khan's soft spot of sentimentality. The Supreme's eyes were red, and he no longer had any intention of pursuing responsibility.

The king and his minister chatted about their childhood stories for a while, and Sultan suddenly came to his senses. What happened to him? Why did he become more soft-hearted as he got older? How could a king not know how to reward and punish? He tried to keep a straight face and said, "I will not punish you this time. You must do your job carefully when you go back. Are there any rules for investigating spies?"

As the head of the Wuyiwei, he is naturally not a fool. Hada thought for a while and said: "In fact, I have ordered the Wuyiwei to pay close attention to the immigrants in Liaodong and check for spies. But there are too many immigrants in Liaodong, and some cities are almost entirely immigrants from all over the place, which is really difficult to check. According to the military report of His Royal Highness the King of Chu, Yang Hui and Jin Weifan died of poisoning after drinking in a restaurant called Shuangyinglou near Jinzhou Customs. Afterwards, the restaurant owner and waiters all disappeared without a trace. I think that restaurant must be the hideout of the Thirteen Yamen of the Pseudo-Qing Dynasty in southern Liaoning. If they have not left Liaodong yet, we only need to find the followers of Yang Hui and Jin Weifan to draw portraits of those people and arrest them, and we will definitely catch them. In addition, the Qing army was able to contact these spies at sea, which means that there must be people from the Wuyiwei on the ship who used the means of communication such as Feinu. If we ask the soldiers who surrendered to David in detail, we may find some clues."

"Well, go ahead and do it. Make sure to clean up the Qing Dynasty's spy network in southern Liaoning for me," Sultan ordered coldly.

"Yes! I think we can issue notices in various places, and give generous rewards to the people who discover spies and report them to the government. This can not only make up for the shortage of Wuyiwei in Liaodong, but also greatly hinder the actions of spies," Hada came up with another idea.

Sultan was amused. This was to make the pseudo-Qing spies trapped in the vast sea of ​​Liaodong people and unable to extricate themselves! "Well, this is a good idea! I approve it!" He laughed.

Changshengtian always liked to joke with the emperor. When the Great Khan Lianhua received the first military report and thought that the situation in southern Liaoning had collapsed and might endanger his rear area, the second military report from Chu Wang Baoyin arrived.

"Great Khan, military report~"

The guard presented the military report of his third son again. The old father suddenly felt nervous. Could it be that Gaizhou was lost? If so, Liaonan was in danger! He calmed down and opened the military report to read it. The more he read, the happier he looked. Baoyin said in the military report that the guards had won a great victory in Gaizhou, annihilated more than 10,000 Qing troops, killed Dong Xueli, the governor of Huguang of the pseudo-Qing Dynasty, Yu Dahai, the left governor, Chai Yaoxian, the Jiala Zhangjing, the lieutenant general Dong Yongfan, the guerrilla Dong Yongai, the assistant commander Jin Zhong, the rebel general Gu Si and other 37 generals at all levels, the pseudo-Qing general Jin Wanyi, the lieutenant general Huang Guozhong and others surrendered, and the minister of state Lai Tuku had only more than a thousand remnants and fled back to Dengzhou on the navy warship.

"Hahaha~ You really are worthy of being my son. You drove the enemies who landed in southern Liaoning into the sea so quickly!" Sultan laughed loudly, completely forgetting that he had just scolded his son for being incompetent.

Chu Wang Baoyin said at the end of the military report that the Qing army commander named Lai Tuku was very hateful. Before retreating, he actually abducted the people of Jinzhou City and Jinzhou Zhongzuo, and burned the two cities to ashes. The customs that had been built with great difficulty was razed to the ground. The old father laughed after reading it. The third son was still short-sighted. Preserving Liaonan and stabilizing the rear were the major issues. Compared with that, the destruction of two cities was nothing.
The Khan, feeling better, picked up his imperial pen and wrote a letter to his son. "The battle of Gaizhou was fought beautifully, and I am very happy. My son has the potential to be a famous general to be able to recover southern Liaoning so quickly. Although most of the Qing troops that landed this time were annihilated, we must guard against their coming again. We must be careful with Babai, Wang Guotai and others, and send more troops to garrison in coastal states. You should pay more attention to the navy and urge local officials to build military ports, water forts and shipyards as soon as possible. Not only should we buy ships, but we should also build ships. Seter and Ayuqi have never fought a naval battle before, so the navy training must be accelerated, and you should visit the water camp more often when you have nothing to do. As for the Qing army's abduction of civilians and the burning of Jinzhou and Zhongzuo, you don't have to worry about it. How can there be no losses in war? If the city is burned, it can be rebuilt, and if there are fewer civilians, refugees can be recruited. There are no cowards among the descendants of the Yikmin'an family, and my son will be able to defend southern Liaoning..."

Just after he finished writing the letter to his son, the Great Khan was very pleased. Bobe broke into the tent at this moment and said, "Great Khan, Norbu has returned from the Dedule Daur tribe in the north of Nenjiang River. He said that the two leaders of the tribe, Gacha and Kenzheuule, are willing to submit to David and will soon come to Hetuala to meet His Majesty."

"Excellent! Send orders to get ready. I want to personally welcome the two distinguished guests! Hahaha~" Sultan laughed. This was the first Sauron tribe to submit to David, so naturally he had to treat them well and set an example for other tribes! (End of this chapter)
