Chapter 942: Li Dingguo came to seek the moon
Before the war started, I naturally became timid first.
Felipe IV felt very uncomfortable.
Since the top and bottom are not united, there is really no need to fight this battle.
The forced melon is not sweet. Once a war begins, the problems of food and military expenditure must be solved.
If the war ends for a long time, it will undoubtedly add to the injury to the current financial situation of the Spanish Kingdom.
When the gold and silver sent by the colonies were no longer enough to consume the war, it was the time when the Spanish Kingdom collapsed.
As a superior, Felipe IV must be able to judge the situation and start from the overall situation, rather than act in a mess with his own temperament.
He is no longer the ignorant boy, he must be responsible for every decision he makes.
But it is unrealistic to ask the Spanish army to withdraw from Mexico.
Since it is a negotiation, it means going back and forth.
Felipe IV decided to demarcate part of the Mexican region by the Ming army, allowing the Ming Dynasty to engage in the Maritime Silk Road.
This is not something the Spaniards can control, and Felipe IV will not interfere.
He hopes that this move can ease the relationship with Ming Dynasty and indirectly focus on the European mainland.
After all, compared to the distant Eastern Empire, the Spaniards were more afraid of the rise of the Netherlands, France and England.
As the king of all words, Felipe IV immediately made the decision and the ministers decided on the specific details.
Of course, I also have to reply to a letter to the Ming generals on the American continent.
The situation was not as good as that of a human, so I could only pinch my nose and accept it.
When Spain resolves the Europa problem, it will not be too late to free up your hands to seek revenge on the Ming army.
But Felipe IV doesn't know if he can see that day with his current physical condition
Foreign monks are good at chanting scriptures.
Sengge now truly understands the truth of this sentence.
Since the Ottoman Sultan handed over the power to command the army's vanguard battalion to him, he has once again felt the pleasure of controlling power.
After all, with his previous experience, we must know the core elements of controlling the army.
The only thing is that I am afraid of not having prestige.
But the Ottoman Sultan gave him this power, so he can now be regarded as a big banner.
The Ottoman generals' daring to speak out made Sengge almost laugh to death.
To be able to reach today, Sengge relies not only on his own strength, but also on his mind.
This battle is crucial to Sengge. If he can win a great victory, he can make a big splash in the Ottoman army and gain the absolute trust of His Majesty the Sultan.
This will pave the way for him in the future.
But if he loses, he will probably lose favor completely.
His Majesty the Ottoman Sultan would probably not look at him directly.
Therefore, the monk must firmly grasp the opportunity.
In his opinion, the most important thing in marching and fighting is intelligence.
There is a saying among the Han people: knowing yourself and your enemy will win every battle.
When Sengge was fighting with the Ming army in Junggar before, he suffered losses in this regard.
The Ming army was very cunning and would always use some seemingly flawed places to seduce the monk.
Sengge has the kind of character that cannot withstand temptation, so it is easy to get involved when it fights.
I completely lost my mind as soon as I got up.
Under such circumstances, blind pursuit can easily fall into the full set of Ming army.
The Junggar army led by Sengge back then was wiped out in such a way.
Once you are bitten by a snake for ten years, you are afraid of the rope.
With this failure, it is naturally impossible for Sengge to fall in the same place several times.
This time, Sengge must do a good job in collecting information.
He sent a thousand scouts to the front line to inquire about the news.
These scouts are very dispersed, so there is basically no cross-repetition.
He personally captured the army's training.
The daily training of the Ottoman army is still very regular, and the monks do not need to interfere too much, just make sure that they will not be lazy.
As for the few hundred confidants left in the Sengge, he was assigned to various camps as eyes and ears.
The Ottoman generals dared not speak out.
After all, this is the will of His Majesty the Sultan, and they can only choose to obey.
However, they were also ready to watch the good show of Sengge.
Once Sengge is defeated, they will write a letter together as soon as possible to impeach Sengge to His Majesty the Ottoman Sultan.
How high the monk's character is now, how bad it will fall in the future
"I said good nephew, the Ottoman barbarians were scared by us, right? Why do I think they dare not come?"
After setting up a matter in advance, he could not see any movement for several days, so Hao Yaoqi couldn't sit still.
Liu Xingming, who was standing by, comforted him and said, "No, I know the Ottomans' personality quite well. They are conceited and greedy. In other words, they cannot suffer a loss. They suffered a great loss in the last battle and must have wanted to make up for it. Uncle Hao, don't worry, they will gather troops to fight again in a few days."
Hao Yaoqi spread his hands and said helplessly: "I hope this is the case. But it doesn't matter if they can't fight. Anyway, our supply line has an advantage, and the Ottoman barbarians need to travel a long distance from Istanbul to transport food, so their food must be problematic first."
Liu Xingming nodded and said, "This is the reason."
"Report! Report!"
At this moment, the personal soldiers suddenly rode their horses.
Liu Xingming and Hao Yaoqi turned their heads to look.
"Report! The young master, the marquis, and His Highness the King of Jin arrived."
Both of them were shocked when they heard this.
His Highness King Jin has arrived?
This is really sudden enough.
Didn’t you say that His Highness King Jin would let them do it before? Why did you regret it now?
No matter what, they still have to go and greet them.
Liu Xingming and Hao Yaoqi didn't care about changing their clothes, so they just lifted their clothes, and then followed the personal soldiers to see Li Dingguo.
Since it is in a valley, the conditions are naturally not very good.
Liu Xingming and Hao Yaoqi came to the central army's tent and knew it when they saw the silver-armored knights garrisoned around them.
These silver-armored knights are Li Dingguo's confidants. With them in it, it means that Li Dingguo must be at a distance not far away.
Sure enough, after they lifted the curtains of the tent and entered, they saw Li Dingguo sitting in the middle at a glance.
"Your Highness King Jin, why are you here?"
Liu Xingming stepped forward and bowed and said half-jokingly: "Are you not worried about us?"
Li Dingguo waved his hand and said, "How could this be? As the saying goes, you don't need to doubt people, but you don't doubt people. I still understand this principle. But I learned that the barbarians had dispersed a lot of sentries and scouts here, so I came to remind you."
Both of them were shocked when they heard this. Li Dingguo knew more clearly about the situation here than they did. Could it be that there would be a whistleblower in their camp?
