On the broad grassland, the sky is vast, the wild fields are vast, the wind-swept grass is low and there are no people around~
Chijin took several of his men, each riding two horses, and walked very leisurely towards Datong in the south.
He is one of the guards under the little prince Batu Meng. Batu Meng is also called Dayan Khan, a transliteration of Dayuan Khan, but he is not a descendant of the Golden Family, so although Dayan Khan has unified The tribes of Eastern Mongolia eliminated the long-standing separatist situation in Eastern Mongolia, but he still had to support a puppet of the Golden Family to order the tribes of Mongolia.
Dayan Khan was an extremely strategic, resourceful and ambitious man. He inherited his father's position as Bayan Munch at the age of seven. When he was young, he followed his wife Mandu Luhatun to send troops to conquer Oara and force Oara to conquer the country. He moved westward, and when he became an adult, he successively eliminated the powerful ministers with different surnames, Yisi Mayin and others, and completely took control of the power left by his father.
The rest of his life was dedicated to unifying all the Mongolian tribes, hoping to regain the glory of Genghis Khan and make every place where the sun shines a pasture for the Mongolians.
In the first year of Hongzhi, the young prince Batu Mengke sent an envoy to ask for tribute and asked Emperor Hongzhi to make him the Great Khan of the Yuan Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty had no ability to fight against the Ming Dynasty because of its weakened military strength after the Tumubao Incident. The Mongolian tribes were suppressing it, so they had to allow it.
It was also from that time that Dayan Khan began to invade the south repeatedly, trying to regain control of the colorful world of the Central Plains. Especially in autumn and winter, he almost always went south to rob the border.
It was already September, the weather was starting to get colder, and the most difficult season was approaching, so Dayan Khan also started preparations in advance and sent a lot of reconnaissance cavalry to start spying and reconnaissance in the Daming Bian Town area, preparing Look for a breakthrough so you can make a plan to go south.
Chijin came to Datong with a few of his men to spy on the situation.
In the past, when the little prince traveled south, there were generally three routes. The left route took the Ningxia and Gansu areas, the middle route took the Datong, Xuanfu, and Taiyuan lines, and the right route took the Liaodong line.
Each of the three lines has its own advantages and disadvantages. The left line in Ningxia and Gansu is the best to break through. However, this area is poor and not much property can be plundered. Moreover, this area is far away from the capital of the Ming Dynasty, so it is difficult to deter the Ming Dynasty.
As for the eastern line of Liaodong, it is close to the capital of the Ming Dynasty. With just a slight touch, the capital of the Ming Dynasty will immediately become tense. However, the terrain here is difficult and blocked by the Great Wall, which has always been the most difficult to break through.
The middle line of Datong, Xuanfu, and Taiyuan is close enough to the Ming Dynasty capital. As long as Taiyuan is broken through, the Ming Dynasty capital can be immediately targeted, forming a huge deterrent and pressure.
At the same time, this area is also a very rich area. Every raid can bring a big harvest, including food, salt, iron tools, slaves from the Ming Dynasty, etc. These are everyone's favorites and are used by Dayan Khan to consolidate himself. This is an important means of gaining status, because everyone likes to follow the boss who can lead the way to success.
Since the first year of Hongzhi, Dayan Khan has raised his troops to seize the border almost every winter, and he has gained a lot every time. Gradually, it has become a routine. Every winter, they will seize the border.
And he was able to succeed every time, which not only intimidated the Ming court, but also greatly benefited the tribes who followed him. This also made Dayan Khan's status unshakable and his strength even more powerful.
"The people of the Ming Dynasty are a bunch of cowardly sheep, they can only rely on the city to survive. As long as the city is conquered, everything in it can be claimed by us~"
While riding the horse, Chijin was also chatting with his men about going south to plunder. This was everyone's favorite topic.
"You may not know yet, but this woman from the Ming Dynasty had very white skin and a fragrant fragrance, which is quite exciting~"
"You all work hard this year and try to grab a woman from the Ming Dynasty back then. You will know when the time comes."
When he said this, several people under Chi Jin couldn't help laughing happily, and their hearts felt hot.
"Going south to plunder, this is the most anticipated show every year.
The young warriors have heard too many stories similar to this. Their cutting knives have been sharpened, their horses have been fed fat and strong, and they are waiting for Dayan Khan's order to enter the Central Plains again. Entering the colorful world of Ming Dynasty people, there is everything they want.
Chi Jin and others are very fast and control two horses very skillfully. Once discovered and pursued by the Ming Dynasty people, they can quickly switch horses and escape.
However, Chi Jin did not think that the Ming Dynasty people hadThey dared to come out to chase these warriors. After these years of plundering, they had clearly understood that these Ming Dynasty people were very weak, as weak as sheep. Even if only a few cavalry appeared outside the city, the Ming Dynasty People would be scared to death, and no one would dare to come out.
Almost unscrupulously, Chijin led his people straight to Datong without any intention of hiding it.
On the withered grassland, a city wall built against the mountains appeared in view. The city wall was built in the canyon between the two mountains, blocking their way south.
"This city wall seems a little different?"
From a distance, Chi Jin discovered something different.
"What's the difference?"
The subordinates asked quickly.
"It seems like it has become much, much taller~"
Chijin wiped his eyes, looked at it carefully, then recalled the city wall he saw when he came here last year, thought for a while and said.
¡°Dang~dang~¡±
On the tall city wall of Datong, the frontier army lookouts stationed here had naturally discovered the red gold in the distance through telescopes early, and immediately rang the bell in panic, and there was a panic.
I have to say that at this time, the Ming Dynasty border army was really fighting against the five scum. It was just a few horses and a few scouts, and the entire Datong garrison was already frightened.
This is still the most effective frontier army of the Ming Dynasty. If the guard troops guarding various places, they would probably be scared to death at this time. The guard system has long been rotten and has no combat effectiveness at all.
But soon, these border troops calmed down. There were not many enemies, most of them were scouts, and it was impossible to attack Datong. What's more, even if there were large troops behind these scouts, they were not afraid.
Because the Datong now is no longer the Datong it was a few months ago.
Because of the emergence of cement, the Ming Dynasty also formulated a series of plans to renovate the Great Wall and border town walls, purchased a large amount of cement, and continuously transported it to the border town areas.
In the past, building city walls cost a lot of money and manpower, and Emperor Hongzhi was an emperor who loved his people like a son, so the city walls in this town were repaired every year and stopped for another year. Most of the time, they were just repairs, which did not achieve any effect at all. substantive effect.
This is also the reason why the city wall is repaired every year, but the little prince can still go south to block it every year, because it has no effect at all.
Especially the Great Wall in Datong and Xuanfu is different from the Great Wall in Beijing. It is not a Great Wall composed of blue bricks and strips of stone, but a Great Wall built with earth.
Such a Great Wall can easily collapse under wind and rain, so it is also full of loopholes. The nomads in the north can always find a breakthrough.
¡° But now with cement, it¡¯s completely different.
Once the magical weapon of cement came out, building city walls became very simple and easy. Sand and stones were enough. The construction speed was fast, the quality of the city walls was high, and it cost much less money, food, manpower, etc.
The border troops here in Datong Mansion frantically raised the city wall of Datong by more than 20 meters. At this time, the height of the city wall was almost the same as the height of the mountains on both sides.
"This~this~"
Chijin was dumbfounded. As the Datong City Wall got closer and closer, he could see more and more clearly. Looking at the huge city wall that was almost as high as the mountains on both sides, he opened his mouth wide and his eyes widened.
