834 Arrangement

Daheishan is tall and steep in the northeast of Jinzhou, and the Great Wall is built on it. The reserved ambush is at the gate and a valley near the grassland.

It is worthy of being the local snake of Guanning Army. It is well-known for the surrounding terrain and has chosen this valley to ambush. If you can shell out from the mountain, you will have no way to hide below the valley. You can even seal the exit of the valley, and then throw rolling wood and stones from the cliff walls on the west mountain, which can also cause a large amount of damage to the enemies in the valley.

Nowadays, this place is very lively. Under the leadership of the "Cao" banner, the Ming cavalry brought a truckload of food. When they arrived at the valley, the patriarchs of the Aiman's tribe and Hurt's tribe had already led their tribe members to wait here.

Seeing Cao Wenzhao leading his troops to arrive, he hurriedly greeted him and treated him with the most noble etiquette of Mongolia.

Cao Wenzhao sat on the horse, very arrogant, pointed at them with a horse whip and asked, "Has the news been spread?"

The two patriarchs knew what he was referring to, and the patriarch of the Hurt tribe quickly replied: "Someone has been sent to inform you. When the villain sees the food, he will send someone to inform you again, and let the Qing soldiers... Jianlu send troops to extract it!"

The patriarch of the Aiman's tribe also replied, saying that everything would behave as planned.

After hearing this, Cao Wenzhao turned his hand back for a while and said, "The Master of the Pavilion knows that your tribe will not be able to stand up anymore, so he first allocates three trucks of grain to one of your tribes. The remaining grain cannot be moved for the time being. He should be used as bait to lure Jianlu into the valley."

While speaking, only the Ming army drove six carriages forward, filled with grain bags.

The patriarchs of the Aiman's tribe and Hurt's tribe were both overjoyed and hurriedly thanked them.

Cao Wenzhao looked indifferent and pointed at the horse whip, "Come on, hand over them and accept them on the spot. I can also hand over the office to the cabinet!"

So, a soldier immediately stepped forward and took the initiative to hand over to the two Mongolian tribes. In order to show that there was nothing wrong with it, he even opened the grain bag and took out the serious grain for them to check. After everything was verified, the grain truck was handed over.

The heads of the Aiman'er tribe and Hurt tribe were very happy, and could not control the smile on their faces. They quickly said diligently that they would help the Ming army unload grain and take action.

When Cao Wenzhao heard this, he shouted with a cold face: "What else can you Mongolians do besides shepherding?"

This made the patriarchs of the two Mongolian tribes stunned. I wonder what he meant by saying this?

However, immediately Cao Wenzhao's words solved their doubts: "These food is inevitable and the most important bait for Jianlu. Therefore, it must be placed well so that Jianlu cannot move it away so that it can give our army more time to annihilate them!"

Speaking of this, he pointed with a horse whip and said, "You retreat, your handsome men will make arrangements!"

After hearing this, the patriarchs of the Aiman's tribe and Hurt tribe retreated awkwardly, and prepared to see what the Ming army did.

The Ming army found a flat open space behind the valley, cleared the debris first, and then began to carry it down from the grain truck, and built it up in an orderly manner. Among them, a soldier accidentally fell to the ground and fell out of the grain bag on his shoulder. The grain bag broke and the grain inside was spilled out, which made the Mongolians feel very distressed. Naturally, it also attracted Cao Wenzhao's scolding, asking them to be careful, if anyone spills food again, military law will be engaged in military law!

It’s true that after this military order was passed down, no more Ming soldiers fell to the ground. They all carefully moved the food and built it like a hill. Not only was it in order, but it also surrounded the surrounding fences and protected it carefully.

After seeing the grain piled up, Cao Wenzhao called the head of the Aiman'er tribe and the head of the Hurt tribe. With a cold face, he pointed at the grain with a horse whip: "These grains do not belong to you now. Only when you finish what you should do and let me make great contributions will this grain belong to you. Therefore, before this, if you dare to move the food here, don't blame me for being rude!"

Both patriarchs turned a blind eye to his rudeness and arrogance, as well as the contempt that brought him in his words and deeds. On the surface, they even claimed to be true, but they were thinking in their hearts: "Let's make you arrogant, wait and see!"

After Cao Wenzhao gave the order, he turned around and left, leading his men back, and wanted to go up the mountain from behind the mountain to the west of the valley. This was because there was a cliff on this side, but there was a flat slope on the other side, like a right triangle.

The patriarchs of the two Mongolian tribes wanted to give it away, but they were stopped by Cao Wenzhao's personal guards: "What are you going to do? Are you trying to peek at the arrangements of our Guanning Army?"

"I dare not dare, I absolutely have no intention of this." The patriarch of the Aiman'er tribe quickly stopped and smiled apologized. The so-called phoenix that landed on the ground was not as good as a chicken. The patriarch of a tribe had to accept the scolding of a few personal guards in the Ming army, and he had to smile with him.

Unexpectedly, the guard actually scolded again: "It's better to stay away from our food, otherwise you will think you want to steal food. Then, don't blame us for missing something on the mountain."

After saying that, he even pointed his hand in front, signaled and said, "It's better not to go beyond there, hum!"

Continuing to endure, the two patriarchs quickly agreed, suppressed their temper and warned themselves. Because they also found that Cao Wenzhao must have heard his personal guards speak, but he didn't care, so his attitude was naturally clear.

The personal guard turned around, caught up with Cao Wenzhao, and complained: "Master, we don't have much food ourselves, and we can't figure it out if we give them so much!"

The voice was a bit loud. Both patriarchs heard it and suddenly realized in their hearts why this personal guard was so rude? It turned out that it was because of this!

The two of them watched Cao Wenzhao go away, and suddenly found that the Ming army was carrying artillery in the distance, led by horses, blocked by the Ming army infantry, and vaguely could not count how many cannons there were. It can be seen that the Guanning Army was obviously determined to win this ambush.

The two patriarchs looked at each other, then turned back and ordered their confidants to pull the grain trucks given by the Ming army to turn back to the grassland. After leaving the valley far away, a few more people escorted the food team and rushed towards Shenyang.

The two patriarchs who stayed in the valley listened to Cao Wenzhao and did not dare to approach the piles of grain, or did not want to cause too much trouble, and they were very content. They only heard the movements of the Ming army from time to time behind the mountain, and even the Ming army was repairing fortifications on the top of the mountain, which indicated that there would be a fierce battle here.
