Tens of miles north of Hamiwei are the Tianshan Mountains. The Tianshan Mountains, which span thousands of miles across, can be regarded as the pearl of the Western Regions and the jade belt in the desert. Because the mountains are covered with snow and abundant snow and water, the Tianshan Mountains are different from the withered and yellow deserts on both sides, but are rich in vegetation and full of greenery.

Of course, if it is a mountain that is thousands of meters long, this greenness usually starts from the mountainside, because the top of the mountain is full of ice and snow.

Erlang Mountain north of Hamiwei is such a high mountain. The top of the mountain is covered with snow all year round, but the mountainside from the valley is full of green.

March is the season when ice and snow melt. The grass grows tender buds, new green appears on the treetops, and various animals are also becoming active.

On that day, five men in fur coats suddenly appeared on the hillside of Erlang Mountain. They were all tall and burly, holding mountain swords and longbows on their backs. At first glance, they looked like hunters in the mountains, but their equipment was a bit too neat. Moreover, after they hunted a goat, they did not walk down the mountain, but carried the goat towards the top of the mountain!

The direction they were moving forward was clearly without tents or houses, except for rocks and ice and snow. What were they trying to do?

The answer was soon revealed. When they walked near the snow line, a young man with a telescope on his back suddenly jumped out from behind a huge rock and said excitedly: "Third Brother, you have arrived. You saw you holding your goat from a distance, and my saliva is almost flowing out!"

The man who led the five people shook his head and cursed with a smile: "Xiao Liuzi, you are itchy, right? Why don't you go back to the post quickly? Be careful that the captain knows and hit you on the board."

When Xiao Liuzi heard this, he touched his head and ran back. While running, he smiled and said, "Third Brother, you won't know if you don't complain. He has gone back to the cave to boil water. He said that he would come to the pot of mutton soup today, and you will have to leave me a big bowl at that time."

It turned out that this was a post of the Ming army. It was hidden near the snow line and looked down below, just in time to see the wasteland below.

The five people threw the goats into the stream next to them and quickly walked into a cave behind them. Soon, they walked out of the cave again. However, this time the longbow on their backs disappeared, and they did not hold a hijab in their hands, but a bucket, a basin, and a sharp bone knife.

Soon, the five men peeled the goats in the stream and cut them into several pieces.

They directly spread the sheepskin onto the huge rock, and the lamb and the washed organs were brought into the cave.

This is a semi-open giant cave, not very deep, the furnishings inside are very simple, just two military tents, a small open space in the middle, a simple firewood stove was built with stones on the open space, and a large iron pot was installed on the stove, and that's all.

At this time, a middle-aged man was burning the fire there, and the snow water in the large iron pot had already been boiling.

As soon as the five men came in with mutton and mutton offals, the man who was burning fire shouted: "Three, hurry up, pick out the bones and throw them in first, cut the meat and internal organs into small pieces and then throw them in together."

The third brother responded, and with everyone working together to skillfully pick out the large sheep bones and throw them into the pot, and then began to cut the meat and organs into pieces.

The man who was burning the fire quickly ran into a tent, and soon ran out with two cloth bags.

A cloth bag contains spices, such as star anise, cinnamon, grass fruit, and bay leaves. The Western Regions are very cheap, so the man grabbed a few handfuls without hesitation and threw them into the pot.

Another bag was filled with coarse salt, so I didn't dare to throw this thing in a big way. The man grabbed a handful and threw it in, stirred it with a spoon for a few times, tasted another bite of the soup, and then threw a small handful.

He was seasoning there, and another man reminded: "Captain, why don't you find some fragrant mushrooms to put them in, and that thing will bring the flavor."

The captain glared at him and cursed: "Get out, you dead rat, you didn't pull us to death last time. Many of the fragrant mushrooms are poisonous!"

The strong man nicknamed mouse heard this, touched his head and said innocently: "The fragrant mushrooms on our side are not poisonous, and every household eats them."

The captain smiled and said, "Okay, if you want to eat, you can find some to put it in your own bowl. If you don't have diarrhea after eating, we will eat it again."

"This.", when the mouse heard this, he seemed to be a little moved, but after thinking about it, he gave up. The last time he really pulled too hard, especially because he ate the most and was exhausted. He really didn't have the courage to try again.

Everyone couldn't help laughing when they saw his embarrassed look.

At this moment, Xiao Liuzi, who was looking away from a distance, suddenly ran in and asked loudly: "What are you laughing at? Is the mutton ready?"

The captain immediately looked stern and scolded, "You guy is itchy, right? If you don't stay on the ward, why are you running back? Can we still lose your mutton? After getting ready, we will naturally send it to you."

The little Liuzi shivered when he heard this and said aggrievedly: "No, Captain, I'm not here to eat mutton. Just now, Shitou and I saw Yang Qianhu and I came over from the north with two people to ride horses, so let's tell you, I guess he's going up the mountain now."

Hearing this, the captain threw the fire stick in his hand, stood up, and said hurriedly: "Xiao Liu, hurry back to the sentry, Lao San, you are watching here."

After saying that, he walked out quickly, and the little six hurriedly followed.

At this time, at the foot of Erlang Mountain, three men dressed as herders had turned over and dismounted. The leader hurriedly threw the reins back and said, "You guys are watching here."

Then he quickly rushed up the mountain, and quickly turned into a black dot while moving.

The captain had just walked to Xiaoliu's post, and Yang Qianhu had already rushed over like a gust of wind, and his figure was like a flying bird.

When Yang Qianhu came to the front, the captain quickly knelt on one knee and saluted: "The little man met the Lord Qianhu."

Yang Qianhu raised his hand and said hurriedly: "Don't give me a gift, hurry up, I have an urgent military information to report to General Hou."

After saying that, he rushed directly to the cave.

The captain quickly got up and ran towards the cave.

After Yang Qianhu arrived at the cave, he ignored the third and others who were kneeling on the ground to salute, nor did he care about the smell of the meat in the cave, but directly rushed into a tent.

The captain followed behind and shouted: "Lao Lao, come and shake the generator."

After saying that, he followed him into the tent.

The third brother quickly got up from the ground and ran into the tent.

After Yang Qianhu entered the tent, he walked directly to the small table with the telegraph machine. As soon as the captain came in, he urged: "Hurry up."

The captain hurriedly lay on the table, pulled out a telegram, then picked up the brush directly, dipped it ink, and picked up the pen and looked at Yang Qianhu.

Yang Qianhu's face turned right and said loudly: "Yang Daoying, a Qianhu, a subordinate of Jinyiwei, reported to the General Hou that the Wasan tribe issued a convening order three days ago, summoned nearly 300,000 troops, as if he had some intentions. In addition, the Kazakh Khanate also assembled 100,000 cavalry four days ago and headed straight to the Khanate of the Wasan tribe. On the way, the Wasan tribe did not send troops to prevent the difficulties."

This is clearly an attack on the Ming Dynasty. No country in the Western Regions needs the Wasan tribe and the Kazakh Khanate to work together to deal with it!
