The weather on the grassland is changing. It was clear just now. In the blink of an eye, there were clouds covered with clouds. The raindrops were about to fall.

Su Cheng rode on the horse, listening to Zhang Yong's report, his irritability decreased a lot.

Among the military posts in the past few days, more and more Beidi military newspapers pointed to Shajing, as if an invisible hand was fiddling everyone's eyes, making everyone's eyes focus on Shajing.

Agdorji was defeated and killed. His son was killed and injured in the battle for the Khan throne. On the contrary, Tutubuhua's son survived because of the lack of fighting.

Marco Guergis was the youngest son of Tuotuobuhua. Because his eldest son Tuotuobuhua was captured after Tuotuobuhua, he was the only one who stayed in the Tatars, so he was supported by the tribes of the Eastern Mongolian Empire and had a great possibility of inheriting the Khan throne.

However, Su Cheng had already negotiated with Zhu Qiyu, hoping to use the Tugu Simeng to restrain the grassland tribes. At the right time, he would support him as the Mongol Khan and split the Mongolian parts.

What is missing now is the right time.

This time, Su Cheng led his troops out of the city because Wen Mou rushed to Datong and replaced Huo Ning to preside over the collection and archiving of Datong military booklets. With the cooperation of the two, many old military newspapers were found.

One of them is the military newspaper when the Zhenlu Guards were not yet captured.

The military newspaper mentioned that black turbulent oil was found in the west of Zhenluwei. After igniting it, it lasted for a long time, but it was smoky and fired, and the smell was quite strong. No one was willing to use it. Even the grazing Mongolians were unwilling to use this thing to burn fire. The hundreds of households of Zhenluwei proposed to use fierce turbulent oil to lift fire. It lasted for a long time and could be implemented in Zhubian Town.

However, the Zhenlu Guard was captured and Guo Deng ignored this, so the military post was thrown in the corner and eaten ashes.

Sucheng wanted to go and have a look. If the amount of hot turbulent oil is enough, Sucheng will consider building a civilized oil refining factory, making the asphalt, and renovating the official road.

It is too difficult to walk on the official road now. Every rainy day, there is severe water accumulation on the official road, and there are mud everywhere, with large and small pits. It can trap a large cart eight times in ten times.

If the asphalt road is paved, it will be much easier to walk. At least the cart will not be trapped in the rainy day.

Of course, it is difficult for cavalry to run, but in the future, with the rapid loading of muskets, the decline of cavalry is inevitable.

"The Zhenlu Guard has arrived."

The guide in front of him said that the guide was a local soldier and military household in Datong. Everyone called him Dazeng, and he didn't even remember him.

Da Zeng pointed to the Tunbao in the distance and reminded everyone, his dark face was full of nervous expressions.

Su Cheng patted his horse forward and observed the situation around him.

Although the Mongols captured the Zhenlu Guards, they did not send troops to occupy them. They simply destroyed the trunks and forts. Now there are several small tribes who live here. Because they are close to the Great Wall, they have become the place where goods are distributed and secretly traded.

Su Cheng asked Da Zeng:

"How are the combat power of these small tribes? Can we attack them and defeat the guards in the Zhenlu?"

Da Zeng became even more nervous when he heard this and hurriedly persuaded Su Cheng:

"This is not strong, Master, although they are small tribes, the men are all army on horseback, and they are brave and good at fighting. We only have a hundred people, and we are surrounded by these people and cannot leave at all."

Ren Yao next to him said with a laugh:

"Da Zeng saw that you were so cowardly. Your husband was not a fool. He would rush up to die. We are here to see the hot turmeric oil today. Hurry up, where can we go?"

Dazeng wiped the sweat from his forehead, pointed in a direction, and everyone continued to move forward.

While walking, Su Cheng asked Dazeng:

"I heard from them that Dazeng, you don't know how old you are. What's going on? Your parents didn't tell you how old you are?"

Da Zeng grinned bitterly when he heard this:

"If you are the master, I have no father or mother. I have grown up with a hundred families since I was a child. I should have been born in Fengzhou in Xuandenian. I grew up in Fengzhou before the age of six. I retreated to the road to Yulinwei. My parents died. My adoptive parents who adopted me were natives from Yulinwei."

"Since then, no one knew how old I was. In the sixth year of Zhengtong, Yulinwei fell, and my adoptive parents died. No one knew even my approximately age."

Da Zeng said, with a faint bitterness on his face.

Su Cheng sighed. Dazeng's experience has grown to this day is a portrayal of the step-by-step retreat of the border line in the northern part of Datong, and a true portrayal of the different offensive and defensive forces between the Ming and Mongolian tribes.

The Ming Dynasty's attack on Mongolia changed from the Xuande Dynasty to the contracting defense in the late Xuande period, and then to the gradual retreat during the Zhengtong period, until the Oirat captured the emperor.

"arrive."

Da Zeng reminded Sucheng.

Su Cheng tied the horses, turned over and got off the horses, and walked towards the place where Da Zeng pointed.

Sure enough, under the hillside was a black crude oil pit, filled with black crude oil. Because it had rained, there was a lot of water mixed in the oil.

After confirming that this is an open-air oil spot, Su Cheng had a rough idea in his mind. If the asphalt made from this thing is used to lay the ground, it would be much more cost-effective than stone slabs.

"We're going to knock this place down."

Su Cheng looked at the personal guard behind him and said.

The casual Ren Yao sat upright at once. Zhang Yong's face was full of nervousness. He looked around and Yang Er looked around, looking embarrassed, but Yang Yu looked eager to try.

Da Zeng had a bitter face:

"Master, we really don't underestimate the combat power of the personal guards. It's really hard for the tribes here to mess with."

"There are three tribes occupying this trest, all of which are small tribes of seven or eight hundred people. Each tribe can remove only more than two hundred strong men, but they can produce seven or eight hundred cavalry after mixing them."

"If you really fight, the cavalry hedge, we are about 100 people who are really not opponents."

Zhang Yong also persuaded him:

"Mr. Master, the son of a thousand gold cannot sit in the hall. You are the master of the Ming Dynasty. If there is any mistake, it will cause too much damage to our Ming army."

Su Cheng asked Ren Yao next to him:

"Lao Ren, how about it? Do you have any ideas?"

Ren Yao rubbed his waist knife, his face full of entanglement:

"We haven't used a knife for several months, and our bones are rusted. There are seven or eight hundred people. If we can kill them, we can still escape. I'm afraid it's a burden to take you with you."

Su Cheng laughed and scolded:

"Your grandson really thought you could still fight me. I remember that back then, I don't know how many times I've dealt with you."

Ren Yao was confused. When have you been cleansed up by me? Didn’t you just use a trick with Lao Wang and beat me up? Why did you clean up by me?

Is this still the case?

Su Cheng ordered:

"Tell us the order to dismount and rest, drink horses, drink water, and eat rice."

"After a moment, three moments, I will launch an attack on the Zhenlu Guard. I will break through this trestle and the Meng people who dare to resist will be killed without mercy."

The guards responded with a loud bang and dismounted and rested.

Su Cheng also found the grass and sat down to rest, closed his eyes and rested. He wanted to simulate how many people he had to kill this time to take down the trench occupied by the Mongols.
