Chapter 79: Expedited Qiantong for Eight Hundred Miles

Chapter 99: Qian Tong with 800 Miles Expedited

On January 27, the seventh year of China, there was heavy snow in Yili!

Xia Wanchun took off her spring shirt, put on a thick fur coat, and was fully armed.

The snow in Yili this year is very heavy, and the thighs are almost gone. Even on the flat ground, a layer of half a foot thick white snow is covered.

Chen Chong, who wrapped himself up like a bear, stepped forward and bowed: "Report to the Governor, the entire army has it, you can set off."

Xia Wanchun got on a horse-drawn sled and reached out to catch a few snowflakes, and smiled and said, "I have been patient for half a year and been humiliated for half a year. Now, it's time for me to take revenge."

Chen Chong laughed and said, "It will definitely be as the governor wishes."

After saying that, he waved his hand and the horse-drawn sledge slowly started. Soon, one sledge after another, full of military soldiers quietly left Yili City.

Cui Liang stood at the head of the city and watched the black army leave Yili City, and said to the guards of the gate: "Close the city gate and prepare for battle."

The soldiers agreed and closed the city gate. The artillery standing on the top of the city also filled the shells in the direction prepared in advance, waiting for the enemy to invade to carry out a fatal blow.

After checking the city defense, Cui Liang returned to the Governor's Mansion and walked straight into Xia Wanchun's bedroom. Today, he was going to carry out Queen Qian's orders.

The bedroom that used to be as warm as spring was as cold as an ice cellar. Three beautiful Kazakh princesses fell on their thick fur and had long lost the breath of life. The beautiful face of the past even had a layer of white frost.

Their expression was very surprised, and this expression had frozen on their faces.

There were many people who died in the room, and they were all given to Xia Wanchun's actors and musicians by the Khans of Kazakhs.

They died very quietly. If it weren't for the black blood that overflowed from their eyes, nose, mouth, and ears that proved that they were dead, Cui Liang would think that they were just asleep.

On the desk in the bedroom, there was still a document that Xia Wanchun had not finished reviewing. Cui Liang glanced at the last review time and found that it was ugly.

In other words, last night? After Xia Wanchun handled these Kazakhs, he still handled a lot of official duties in this room? It was not until General Chen Chong prepared his troops? He left this cold room.

Cui Liang put away most of Xia Wanchun's documents that had been approved by him, and then clapped his hands? Immediately, more than a dozen men in black walked into the room.

Cui Liang said lightly: "If the Governor asks where these people have gone, he will say that I have sent them to a distance."

The man in black did not say anything? Continue to stand in the room and wait for the orders brought by Cui Liang.

"Dispose the excess!"

The man in black immediately took action? In a cup of tea, Xia Wanchun's study returned to his former appearance, with only one bed, one table, one chair, and two large bookshelf.

The ground was carefully scrubbed by the man in black and lit incense. Cui Liang opened the window and door, and immediately a large bunch of snowflakes rushed into the room, blew the books placed on the table and made a clattering sound.

The curtain swayed uneasyly? The door hit the door frame and made a crackling sound, but the not-so-strong smell of blood was completely brought out of the room by the cold wind.

Cui Liang checked the room and didn't see anything that shouldn't have appeared. He went outside in person to bring firewood and put it in the tall fireplace to light it? After the orange flames pounded, the extremely cold room slowly became warmer.

The Governor will not change rooms? According to Cui Liang's understanding of the young Governor, this must be like this. Several months of lustful, extravagant and extravagant life is just a practice for this young Governor who has experienced countless prosperity.

Cui Liang didn't feel that he needed to tell others that these people were killed by Xia Wanchun. He still had a bright future and needed an innocent identity and could not be involved in such unreputable things.

After dealing with these things, Cui Liang once again came to the city wall, sat in a city tower made of adobe, drinking hot tea, watching the wind and snow, and waiting for possible enemies.

In nearly half a year, Xia Wanchun used the means of marriage, transaction and alliance to transfer Hecheng from the mountain pass area thousands of miles away to a place less than 150 miles from Yili City.

The Kazakhs like to trade with the Han people very much. After all, only the Han people have all the goods they need, and only the exquisite goods in the hands of the Han people can make them earn a huge amount of gold and silver coins in the Hezhong area.

Only Han people will acquire wool that is worthless to them.

Therefore, it is very important to conduct trade with the city every two months.

Although the Han people repeatedly proposed to transfer the trade location from the mountain pass to Yili City, in the eyes of the Kazakhs and the information they received, this was just because Han merchants were worried that the results of their trade could not be transferred into wealth and were stolen by the horse thieves.

The Kazakhs did not have this concern, because the transaction with the Han people was the army of the three Kazakhs. In order to protect their property from being stolen by the Junggars, they brought their cavalry that made the enemy scared.

Xia Wanchun’s purpose this time is to annihilate the Kazakh cavalry!

Cold and heavy snow are the biggest enemies of the cavalry!

As long as this raid is successful, Xia Wanchun will be confident enough to destroy the three Kazakhstan tribes!

After the three Kazakhs were defeated, the doomsday of Junggar Bathurhuntaiji came.

Until the afternoon, Cui Liang did not wait for the attack of the Junggars.

The scouts sent out did not find any Junggar troops within a hundred miles.

As for the scouts sent to contact Xia Wanchun's troops, none of them came back, which shows that Xia Wanchun had not launched a raid on the Kazakhs.

Just as Cui Liang was waiting anxiously, a fat man with white face and no beard was riding a camel and was escorted to Yili City by fifty Ming cavalrymen.

The fat man looks very tired.

After reading the document, Cui Liang felt very sympathy for the fat man in front of him who had the same breath as him.

"Give me a room, a pot of hot soup, ten kilograms of mutton, if possible, give me another pot of strong wine."

Qian Tong fell tiredly on a piece of sheepskin.

His lips were chapped, his face and hands were covered with frostbite. At this time, he spread his body like a fat pig waiting to be slaughtered.

Cui Liang sympathized with this person very much.

No matter who rushed from Hangzhou to Yili in two and a half months, it was worthy of sympathy for others.

The chef brought a pot of soup noodles. The fat man's eyes turned green. He ignored the mutton and tried his best to attack the pot of hot noodles. At this moment, even that pot of strong wine could not arouse his interest.

When the fat man finished the soup noodles and poured them on the sheepskin and drank the strong wine in small sips, Cui Liang smiled and said, "Are you a eunuch too?"

Qian Tong looked up at Cui Liang and said, "I want to be a eunuch at this moment."

"Oh? You weren't a eunuch before?"

Qian Tong patted the crotch and said, "It's never, it's just a eunuch who had pretended to be more than two years in order to kill Cao Huachun."

"Since it's a meritorious person, why do you want to be a eunuch?"

Cui Liang is very interested in this question. This is the first time he has met such a person.

Qian Tong sighed and said, "I almost made a mistake, and then I was rushed to this place by His Majesty eight hundred miles."

Cui Liang patted Qian Tong's fat belly and said, "It's really corrupt when you look like you."

Qian Tong stroked his belly and said, "When I was in Hangzhou, I was at least 100 kilograms heavier than now. Forget it, let's not talk about this. Your Majesty spared me once and sent me here to make new contributions. I am very satisfied. I don't know where Governor Xia is, so I will report it now."

Qian Tong got up with difficulty as he spoke, and asked Cui Liang to lead the way.

Cui Liang shook his head and said, "Governor Xia is at Lingxikou at this time."

Qian Tong was stunned for a moment and said, "Lingxikou is a place where the city trades. What kind of business needs to be taken by the Governor himself? This is my job. Please send someone to Lingxikou and City immediately."

In his time of speaking, Qian Tong had already put himself in his capacity as a senator in the Grain Road, and this position was qualified to question the Governor's resolution.

Cui Liang looked at the money channel: "This time the Governor is going to do a business without capital. If this business is completed, our Western Regions may be able to fight in one battle."

Qian Tong was not surprised by Cui Liang's words. Both generals and officials from the Ming Dynasty placed outside were masters who had no capital business. In Qian Tong's opinion, Xia Wanchun did this.

Qian Tong took off his fur clothes, put on his cowhide armed belt, found his armed forces from a big backpack, and began to hang them on him. Seeing his skillful appearance, Cui Liang smiled and said, "Are you going to Lingxikou Heshi?"

Qian Tong hung up his weapon, put on Qiuyi again, tried to draw the weapon several times, and found that Qiuyi did not have much obstacle, so he picked up a long spear from the wall, pulled the bolt and added a bullet into it, and carried the gun, waiting for Cui Liang to send him someone to send him a mount.

Cui Liang gave Qian Tong sixty people and equipped them with twenty sledges.

Qian Tong got on the sledge and saw that he was holding the horse and easily dragging him and two soldiers on the snow about a foot thick, and couldn't help but pick a thumbs up at Cui Liang who was left behind by him.

It can be seen from a young age that Xia Wanchun had planned a business without capital this time. The thick snow could greatly hinder the speed of the horse, while pulling a sled can greatly reduce the impact of the Ming army's shortcomings of being unable to ride horses on combat.

The most important thing is that the hoof of the horse that was running fast on the sled in front of me was much larger than that of other horses, and it could even be more than twice as big as that of the horses. I thought these horses were gifted, but after careful reading, I realized that these hoofs were specially made.

When the horse's hooves are big, they can effectively solve the problem of the horse's hooves being fallen by white snow. It seems that Xia Wanchun is indeed worthy of being His Majesty's disciple.

At this time, the sky gradually darkened, and Qian Tong was not worried about getting lost, because there was a snow track crushed by countless sledges on the road, and it seemed extremely easy to run on the snow track with his horse.

It was dark, and the soldiers lit torches on the sledge, and the white ice and snow fell on the torches and disappeared instantly.

Qian Tong's face turned red. At this time, he found that his tired body had come alive again. He took off his gloves, held the spear in his arms, and warmed his hands and the gun part with his chest.
