665 Missionary again

A day later, the generals who attacked from all walks of life returned to the Governor's camp to report their merits to Hong Chengchou, killing many people, seizing cattle, horses and sheep, etc., and there was a clerk beside him, who recorded all their merits.

Previously, the reason why I ordered the destruction of the Tumote tribe was to establish authority and shock other tribes. Those who dared to invade the Ming Dynasty would chase and kill the Ming messengers. This is an example!

Secondly, the Ming Dynasty was poor, especially under the name of the Governor of Naturalization. If it were not for the support from the pass, not many people would have survived until next year. This time, the food consumption would be doubled, and the burden on the Naturalization City would be even heavier. If the war could not be used to support the war and seized the cattle and sheep of the Tumot tribe for their own use, then this war would have achieved the goal politically, but would have suffered a huge economic loss.

Therefore, slaughtering the Tumochuan tribe and seizing their cattle, horses and sheep was the only feasible option.

Listening to the generals below queuing up to report the results of the battle, Hong Chengchou calculated in his mind whether to make a profit or not! Fortunately, the court did not need to have silver for this post-war reward. In addition to official positions, a portion of the fields reclaimed from the Hetao map can be distributed to rewarded to the meritorious soldiers. Otherwise, even if they win the battle, the court would cry poor!

Early the next morning after all the generals returned to the camp, Hong Chengchou had discussed matters in the Central Military Account. However, this time, there were only two people in the account, one civil and one military officer. The military general was the guerrilla Li Guo, while the civil servant was the former governor of Baotou. He had previously served as a mission to the Mongolian tribes in the western region.

Hong Chengchou said solemnly to them: "This time, my Ming Dynasty destroyed the Tumochuan tribe with its power of thunder, which will surely shock the surrounding tribes, especially the two tribes that had been with Bu Shitu before. This time, if you go on an envoy again, you will not go to these two tribes, but go directly to the Junggar tribe and the Hoshuote tribe."

Speaking of this, he stopped a little and explained seriously: "After going there, there is no need to talk about the border city anymore. He just told them that Bu Shitu did not think about my grace of the Ming Dynasty, but instead had ulterior motives and chased my Ming messenger. The emperor was furious and had exterminated the Tumochuan tribe. This matter was only targeted at the Tumochuan tribe. It was not his intention and it was misunderstood, so he went to inform him."

"I understand!" Ban nodded and responded. His ancestors were the famous Ban Chao. His team has lived in the west for generations and is more proficient in the Western Regions. Therefore, they were recommended by Yang He to Yang Sichang to listen to it. This time they were transferred by Hong Chengchou.

Originally, his parents' expectations for him were that one day the emperor would be appointed as a Jinshi in the Golden Palace, so he only had a single word. It was a pity that no matter how hard he studied, he had always been a scholar. Now, by chance, he has started a diplomatic career that has been famous for his ancestors forever.

Hong Chengchou looked at his eyes, a little worried, and reminded him again: "Although our Ming Dynasty is still unable to deal with the Mongolian tribes in the west, we are not afraid of them. Are you sure of the proper treatment of them?"

"Don't worry, Governor General, the ancestors of the humble ancestors were the Marquis of Dingyuan of the Han Dynasty, and they would never be ashamed of their ancestors!" Ban Dian said in a strong and confident manner.

The last time he went on a mission, he realized it was early and he could only escape back. It can be said that his level of observing words and expressions during the mission was still good.

After hearing this, Hong Chengchou nodded, and finally smiled and said, "Okay, that official is waiting for your good news!"

After saying that, he turned to look at Li Guo and said to him: "You are the emperor's personal choice, so you will escort him. The tasks assigned by the emperor do not need to be repeated by me, right?"

"Don't worry, Governor, I won't be able to save it!" Li Guo immediately clasped his fists and said loudly.

The emperor had already explained the situation to him in the chat group and asked him to take advantage of this opportunity to escort the messenger to observe the situation along the way. If necessary, he could apply for the achievement value from the emperor and take photos as records.

As for why he did this, although the emperor did not say it, Li Guo could vaguely guess something. It is very likely that the emperor would still use troops to the Western Regions after pacifying Liaodong! And this would be his chance for Li Guo!

Li Guo has been exposed to this emperor more in the chat group, so he naturally knows better than others. He knows that the emperor has great ambitions and wants to revive the Ming Dynasty. From ancient times to the present, when the Central Plains dynasty is in its prime and capable, he will inevitably turn his attention to the Western Regions.

It is also for this reason that Li Guo was very enthusiastic about this escort mission. When he came here, he had already selected 500 elite cavalrymen from his subordinates.

After Hong Chengchou finished his instructions, Li Guo escorted the squad to set off. Afterwards, Hong Chengchou also led his army back to Huacheng with triumphant success.

This is also impossible. If the army stays in the west for one more day, there will be more uncertainty. The most important thing is that it will consume more food for one more day. Winter is coming soon, so you have to go back and spend the winter as soon as possible!

On the Turkut tribe, since the two Mongolians who fled back to report the news and sent away the leaders of the tribes and the leaders of the tribes of the people they wanted, they began to be busy.

The Tuer tribe had nearly 70,000 people scattered on the grassland. In order to have a covenant with Bu Shitu, he had to mobilize his troops and select elite troops. Those who should stay, those who should go east to expedition, and those who should be in the camp, must pay attention to these things.

On this day, he was busy with these things, and the leader of the Dulbert tribe who was closest to him came over.

The man was a little excited and smiled and told the good news from Orluk: "We, the Khan, are very interested in Bu Shitu's proposal. We have solicited our opinions, and most of them agree to the Eastern Expedition. Now, I have arranged the matter of the Eastern Expedition and have drawn all the elites!"

"Haha, it's almost the same here." He Orluk also said with a smile, "Just wait for news from Bu Shitu, and then send troops together."

Speaking of this, he remembered the incident and continued, "By the way, is there any news from Bu Shitu? Isn't it that the army is preparing to attack him? How is he going to deal with it? I haven't seen any letters coming from him these days!"

When the leader heard this, he was about to answer, he saw a rushing footsteps coming from outside. Before they could react, they saw the curtains lifted and two people broke into the tent in a mess. At the same time, they were still shouting: "Sweat, it's not good, it's not good..."
