Chapter 295 Bad News

Grassland. Read М

The snow melted, and the earth was full of green.

The horses and cattle and sheep were driven out of the wooden fence and spread all over the undulating hills.

Khan Court.

Temuta was listening to what a black iron guard said in the tent, his face was uncertain.

After the black iron guard finished speaking, he waved his hand, signaling the black iron guard to leave, and went straight into the Khan's tent.

"Father Khan, the black iron guard sent news from Jinzhou." Temuta said.

Mule Hongzhen nodded gently, and he asked, "What's the matter?"

"The food and grass of the King of Yan went to Feihu Pass a few days ago, and now the fight should start." Temuta had a smile on his face.

"Well, let the King of Yan fight with Xiliang, and we can just sit back and reap the benefits. When they are both defeated, our cavalry will cross Yinshan Mountain and enter Jinzhou from Tongguan to decide the outcome of the battle." Mule Hongzhen looked towards Dasong.

Although Xiliang surrendered, he still had some doubts and was worried that Xiliang's ambition would be rekindled.

So this war was a two-birds-with-one-stone campaign for him.

Dasong refused to hand over the King of Yan again, so he could only weaken the King of Yan himself and further consume Xiliang. Of course, if he could take Feihu Pass and enter Yanzhou, it would be the best.

In his opinion, after this battle, the King of Yan would be unable to recover. After all, the population of the four northern counties could not support the repeated recruitment of soldiers.

As for Xiliang, it would be extremely weak after this battle and would completely become a puppet of Beidi, and even unable to control Jinzhou.

In this way, Jinzhou would belong to Beidi.

"Yes, father Khan." Temuta nodded heavily.

As the two were talking, a guard in front of the tent came in, "Khan, Ulanba is back."

"Really? Let him in." Mulehong really smiled.

When Temuta heard this, the haze in his eyes flashed away.

Ulanba is his younger brother, who has been in charge of the war in the north.

After the war ended with the victory of Beidi, he continued to stay there for a while.

Just recently, Beidi seemed to have reached a reconciliation with the invading enemy, so Ulanba led the troops back.

"Father Khan!" Just as Timota was thinking, Ulanba, who was of medium build and looked capable, entered the king's tent and saluted Mulehongzhen first.

Then he turned to his brother Timota, opened his arms, and smiled: "Brother, I have been missing you in the north."

Timota's face was full of smiles, he and Ulanba hugged each other and patted each other's backs.

He knew that his father hated the infighting among the Beidi people the most.

Naturally, he was very enthusiastic.

Mulehongzhen looked at his two sons with satisfaction.

At this time, Ulanba broke free from the bear hug of Timothy and said, "Father Khan, this time I brought back a big surprise."

Mulehongzhen showed great interest and said, "Don't keep us in suspense. Tell us quickly."

Ulanba laughed and said, "I caught a foreigner in the north. He called himself a missionary."

"Then what?" Mulehongzhen continued to ask.

"He said he knew how to make artillery." Ulanba laughed twice.

When fighting with the enemies in the Far North, he had tasted enough of this kind of artillery.

So, he has been looking for the casting method of this kind of artillery.

Later, when he heard that the King of Yan in Dasong also used artillery, he became more anxious.

So, he took greater action in the Far North.

Every day, he sent cavalry to search for enemies in the Far North in the ice and snow wasteland.

Although the plan of these enemies to seize the important town of Beidi failed,

But they seemed very persistent. Later, what shocked him was that on the snowy plains further north, their cavalry found a strong city built by the enemy in the Far North.

Later, when his cavalry was patrolling, they caught a man in strange clothes.

This man was accompanied by a Hezhe slave.

The Hezhe people were originally a small tribe in the north of Beidi.

Later, they were driven to a farther place by the Beidi people.

There were also many Hezhe slaves in the Beidi tribe.

It was with the Hezhe people as a medium that he understood the identity of that person.

"What did you say!" Mule Hongzhen stood up from his chair.

Timota was also shocked.

"Yes, Father Khan, you heard it right. This missionary said he knew how to make artillery." His father's expression made Ulanba even more complacent.

However, thinking of a request made by the missionary, he said: "There is only one very difficult thing. He said that he would teach us the casting method of this cannon only if we allow him to preach in Beidi."

"Impossible!" Timu Ta shouted: "Father Khan, this is absolutely not allowed. This is an infringement on our Beidi."

Mule Hongzhen nodded and said: "Your brother is right. It can't be like this."

The Beidi people have their own shamanism and it is impossible for them to submit to this foreign missionary.

"Don't you know how to use torture?" Timu Ta said.

Ulanba said: "If torture is allowed, would I still raise this matter with Father Khan?"

After a pause, he smiled cunningly and said: "Father Khan, this matter is not very difficult to handle. We Beidi people naturally cannot believe this missionary, but there are many Dasong people in Ningjindusi. They can disguise them as Beidi people and trick him into handing over the casting method of the cannon, and then kill him."

Mule Hongzhen narrowed his eyes slightly.

Of the two sons, Ulanba and Timu Ta.

Temuta has the patience and bravery of a wolf.

And Ulanba was as cunning as a wolf, and what he said was a solution.

"Yes, we will create a fake Beidi for him." Mule Hongzhen smiled softly.

Temuta smiled and nodded, but there was a bit of jealousy in his eyes when he looked at Ubalan.

He thought that this trip to Dasong would give him an extra bargaining chip to fight for the Khan position.

Unexpectedly, Ulanba brought back such an important credit.

If he wanted to overshadow Ulanba's credit, he must win greater benefits for Beidi in the fight between King Yan and Xiliang.

...

Feihu Pass.

The sky was clear without a trace of clouds.

The view in the telescope became extremely clear.

At this time, a large number of soldiers set out from Feihu Pass and headed for the Xiliang camp.

Among them, the spearmen walked in the front, the sword and shield soldiers were in the middle, and the crossbowmen were in the middle.

Finally, followed by thirty-six artillery.

Because it is impossible to deploy a large formation in a narrow and long place.

Sending too many troops at a time will block the entire mountain road.

So in this first attack, Chang Wei only dispatched 8,000 people.

Zhao Xu stood on the city wall, looking at the advancing army.

The battle of Jinzhou was about to begin.
