Chapter 38 Feint

Zhu Gui will indeed carry out disaster relief in three days, and will announce it in the form of an external announcement.

Due to natural disasters, a large number of victims from several states and counties near Yunzhou came here.

Their first stop was Yingzhou.

According to Hu Shidao's investigation, the ultimate target of these victims was Datong Mansion.

On the day he received this information, Zhu Gui summoned officials from the Datong Mansion and representatives from the Datong Chamber of Commerce.

He told everyone this information, and everyone present was frightened.

In their view, the victims are equal to savage beasts and will only destroy the existing order of Datong Prefecture.

For this reason, they are willing to use part of their money to provide relief to the victims in the name of the Datong Chamber of Commerce, and what they want is to allow these victims to stay in Yingzhou.

This is actually Zhu Gui's purpose, just to make these businessmen pocket money.

However, his view of these disaster victims was completely different from these people.

Population is equal to productivity and the army.

Moreover, according to the information currently available to the Chamber of Commerce, Yingzhou is an important producing area of ​​coal mines.

Keeping these victims there and providing them with a secure job becomes an important part of disaster relief.

But Zhu Gui naturally did not forget the Mongols' movements.

Fortunately, with the help of Hu Shidao, he easily understood the Mongolian plan.

So on the third day of the disaster relief meeting.

The acting king Zhu Gui took Princess Xu Miaoqing, fifty soldiers and some representatives of the Datong Prefecture Chamber of Commerce to Yingzhou.

Accompanying him were a member of the garrison at the garrison and two hundred soldiers under him.

Of course, there are also more than 20 truckloads of food and other daily necessities.

The first fifth of the road is a newly renovated official road, which is relatively easy to walk.

However, the road behind was full of ravines, which slowed down the team's progress.

Zhu Gui rode up to the carriage at the back of the motorcade, opened the curtain and walked up, saying to Xu Miaoqing inside: "The sky is cloudy like this. It seems like it's going to rain again. Why don't you go back first?"

Xu Miaoqing glanced outside the carriage and said, "I know you must be hiding something from me, so I must follow you."

Zhu Gui sighed helplessly. He didn't know how Xu Miaoqing discovered the clues.

At this moment, I suddenly remembered the sound of birdsong not far away.

This was the alarm sound agreed between him and Hu Shidao, which meant that the Mongols were nearby.

"If possible, don't get off the carriage."

Zhu Gui jumped off the carriage, asked his soldiers to release the homing pigeons, and then organized the convoy to form a horse-rejection formation on the road.

Soon, the sound of war horses neighing was heard not far away.

Hundreds of Mongolian cavalry roared in.

They started running wildly around the convoy.

I don’t know if he was afraid of the firearms in the team, but this time the Mongolian chief did not show up.

Zhu Gui commanded the soldiers to protect both sides of the convoy and began to shoot at the Mongols.

Neither side said much, and the battle became intense as soon as it began.

On a hillside not far away, several Mongolian chiefs were looking over here.

"The first team went up. Akito's resistance didn't seem very fierce, but their firearms were really powerful."

"Is Mingren's prince inside? As long as we catch him, Datong Mansion will be destroyed."

None of these people had seen Zhu Gui, and they only knew that the acting king was not very old.

But what they didn't expect was that these Ming people actually advanced and retreated in a well-organized manner when they were attacked, and even the businessmen didn't panic at all.

How did he know that these businessmen were actually soldiers pretending to be Prince Dai's palace?

But they did not take out their weapons at this time, they were just worried about scaring away these Mongols.

However, the Mongolian bows and arrows were also very good, and people kept falling around Zhu Gui.

He even had two arrows stuck in his body. If it weren't for the body armor protecting him, he would also be in trouble.

But even so, he still persisted and kept the battle in a stalemate.

Neither scare the Mongols away nor collapse the front.

This mere 100 people actually fought back and forth with 200 Mongolians. This made the Mongolian chief finally decide to press all the reserves.

They even came to watch the battle closer.

At this time, Zhu Gui realized that when the time came, the soldiers disguised as businessmen immediately took out their flintlock rifles from the car and joined the battle group.

Even Xu Miaoqing jumped off the carriage and stood beside Zhu Gui.

She grabbed the flintlock gun from the crowd of government soldiers nearby and fired a shot in the direction of Hei Muhan.

The shot hit Hei Muhan's hat, causing him to fall off his horse.

Xu Miao stamped her foot angrily.

"Okay, look at me."

Zhu Gui opened a carriage, and he actually pulled the Hongyi cannon.

The Mongols have not yet reacted.

Just heard a loud noise.

The carriage fell apart immediately.

However, the Mongolian cavalry on the opposite side were also blown to pieces and immediately fled in all directions.

This shot sounded the clarion call for counterattack.

The government soldiers no longer stayed behind, and bullets were like the god of death, constantly harvesting the lives of the Mongolians.

And the hundred households finally completed the siege of the remaining Mongols.

Before Hei Muhan understood what was going on, he was pulled onto a horse by a tribe's cavalry and ran towards the distance.

In the end, of the more than 500 Mongolian cavalry, only more than 100 ran back to the grassland.

Zhu Gui did not let anyone pursue him, quickly swept the battlefield and headed for Yingzhou.

This brief confrontation lasted less than an hour, and the soldiers suffered more than a dozen casualties.

This is even if they have full-body iron protective gear.

The Mongolian bows and arrows are also very good.

"Why don't you chase me?"

Xu Miaoqing jumped on Zhu Gui's horse and asked proactively.

"We still have business to do, not to mention, just leave the rest to your brother."

Zhu Gui said.

"My brother? Yes, I was wondering why my brother didn't come with us. It turns out that this was planned by you."

Xu Miaoqing suddenly realized.



On the grassland, the Blackwood tribe.

At this time, there were traces of burning everywhere in the Blackwood Tribe.

When Hei Muhan returned to the tribe with more than a dozen cavalry, he was dumbfounded when he saw this scene.

Just when he was kneeling on the ground at a loss, a group of cavalry suddenly rushed out from all directions.

Hei Muhan was shocked.

When he saw clearly, his men had been subdued.

Xu Yingxu walked out from the crowd.

"Are you the Khan of the Blackwood Tribe?"

Hei Muhan's eyes widened with anger, wishing he could eat the Akito who killed his people in front of him.

Xu Yingxu just waved his hand.

"Take it back and give it to the king to be punished."

After this battle, more than a dozen small and medium-sized tribes around Datong Mansion were wiped out.

This is also the first time since the establishment of the Datong Prefecture Guard that it took the initiative and achieved a great victory.

Soon, several memorials reached Nanjing.

In the Jinluan Palace, after a few dull days, a burst of laughter finally came.

"As expected of a descendant of my Zhu family."
