On the top of Datong Mansion City, Sun Chuanting stood here, staring at the city that had been burned into ruins, without saying a word.

There are still dead bodies in many places, with broken hands and feet on the ground, and more of them have broken heads. The bodies of many women are exposed. All of these, without exception, have become stinky.

General Gao Jie and Gao Ruli stood behind Sun Chuanting. They knew that when they saw the border that was harmed by the Mongolian Tartars, they probably felt full of anger.

In the past, although the Mongolian Tartars often entered the pass and attacked the Qiugu, at that time, there were millions of border troops in the Ming Dynasty. Even if the Mongolian Tartars invaded the pass, there would soon be government troops from all over the country to attack the Mongolian Tartars back.

But this time, not only were the border troops drawn to suppress the rebellion due to years of war, but if they died in battle, they would either become thieves and never come back. It can be said that by the fifteenth year of Chongzhen, the border defense was actually quite empty.

However, what is even more terrible is that in order to fight the Battle of Songjin and rescue Jinzhou, the court once again transferred the border troops and transferred all the troops that could be transferred here, but the entire army was wiped out.

In addition, in recent years, the Mongolian Tartars had not entered the pass and attacked Qiugu for several years due to civil strife. Even if they were to attack Qiugu, it would be several months later. Therefore, this sudden invasion was beyond the expectations of everyone on the border.

It can be said that the border losses this time were unprecedented. From the defense line west of Zhangjiakou, except for the important town in Yulin, almost all the lines were attacked by the Mongolian Tartars. Especially this Datong was even lost.

The three-sided governor Sun Chuanting led the troops from Guyuan and rushed to the northern border. What he saw along the way was full of tragic situations after being robbed by the Mongolian Tartars. When he arrived in Fugu County, he received the imperial decree and entered Shanxi to assist in the defense of the Xuanda area.

Along the way, there were still devastations. The situation in Shanxi is even worse than that in northern Shaanxi.

Mainly in northern Shaanxi, there were Ming troops stationed in important towns in Yulin, and the Mongolian Tartars were mainly robbed and did not dare to stay too long.

But in Shanxi, Datong, which was originally a military city that guarded this area, unexpectedly fell, resulting in the lack of power to defend the border, which made the Mongolian Tartars unscrupulous and the disaster naturally became even worse.

Sun Chuanting led his troops from Guyuan. By the time he arrived, the Mongolian Tartars had already retreated. Only the devastated, broken walls and dead bodies were everywhere proved that robbers had come.

At this time, Gao Jie and Gao Ruli dared not speak, for fear that the Governor would vent their anger when he was angry.

But who knew that if they didn't say it, Sun Chuanting suddenly turned to look at the two of them, his face turned pale, and he shouted coldly: "A day off, you will take the cavalry out of seclusion tomorrow, and you will pay the blood debts and blood debts! No matter what you do, as long as you see each of you bring your head back to pay tribute to these dead souls. Then I will submit a memorial to explain everything here!"

"I will obey the order!" Gao Jie and Gao Ruli did not dare to neglect when they heard this. They immediately clasped their fists and listened loudly.

For a long time, the Ming Dynasty also had revenge for the Mongolian Tatars' behavior of fighting Qiugu, rather than just repelling the Mongolian Tatars. Sometimes, it is estimated that the Mongolian Tatars will come to fight Qiugu, and in order to destroy them, they will take the initiative to attack the grassland and attack them first.

Of course, these things happened before. Since the chaos in Shaanxi began, there has never been such a thing again.

But the same is true. As a general of the Qin army, there was no psychological barrier or fear. Even Gao Jie, a man who was born in a thief, was also a man who grew up in northern Shaanxi, had no psychological burden.

Not to mention, along the way, they also saw the tragic situation in northern Shaanxi and Datong. As the imperial army, they certainly had the intention to retaliate.

At this time, when they heard Sun Chuanting’s cold shout and were in contact with his memorial to the court, they immediately knew that this time, they must have to take revenge!

……………………

By the next day, the infantry had cleared all the dead bodies in the city outside the city, burned them with fire, and then dug deep pits to bury them. Otherwise, there might be a possibility of plague.

Looking at a very large tomb bulging, Sun Chuanting looked at the more than 15,000 cavalry that had already gathered, and shouted with a cold face: "Send the order, don't come back without a head! I want the Tatars to remember that killing people will pay for their lives. I founded the country by expelling the Tartars in the Ming Dynasty. Even if it is a troublesome now, they will not be able to bully them!"

The sound is not loud, but it is murderous.

After hearing this, Sun Da and others immediately rode their horses and drove along the military formation, shouting loudly, passing Sun Chuanting's words to every cavalry soldier to know.

Gao Jie and Gao Ruli stood at the top. After seeing Sun Da and others return to pay orders to Sun Chuanting, they raised their arms and shouted: "Kill..."

Their personal guards heard the shouts of the general and immediately shouted: "Kill..."

When more than 15,000 cavalry soldiers heard this, they immediately shouted: "Kill..."

The infantry soldiers who were busy cleaning up the broken city, heard the movement and looked up at the cavalry. Without asking, they could naturally see that the cavalry was going out of seclusion. When they heard the angry voice, they all shouted: "Kill..."

At this moment, the sound of "killing" shook the sky and echoed over the Datong Mansion for a long time.

The wind blew, causing the thick smoke from the burning corpses to float in the wind, as if it was nodding.

There was nothing extra to say, Sun Chuanting waved his hand, Gao Jie and Gao Ruli both clasped their fists and responded, and then drove their horses back to the formation. With the same wave, they were the pioneer horses heading north, leaving the Great Wall, and stepping into the vast grassland.

Three days later, Sun Chuanting had already written a memorial to the court on the arrow tower, and waited for the cavalry sent to come back before he added the last sentence: "I have sent troops to retaliate, and blood flowed into a river."

Standing on the top of the city and looking around.

At this time, the people who were hiding in the mountains had already learned that the official army had arrived, the Tartars retreated and began to return home one after another. However, the tragic situation in their hometown made them all full of sadness, and they could only silently rebuild their homes.

Looking at these, Sun Chuanting's gloomy face could not cover up his anger. If he didn't kill the Tartars, they would not have any scruples!

In the future, he would not guarantee that the Tartars would not invade the pass. But he wanted the Tartars to understand that if you kill innocent people in the pass, how extreme things will be, then I can also send troops out to kill. When you enter the pass again, you will have concerns and dare not kill them again!

As for whether he could win, Sun Chuanting was not worried at all.

Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, the Qin soldiers have been the most capable soldiers. Although now, the most elite soldiers have all died in battle. However, a new generation of Qin soldiers is also growing.

If the army was formed with nothing, Sun Chuanting would not be able to guarantee the combat effectiveness of the army. However, this time he returned to Qin to serve as the governor of the three sides, the court gave him great support. To be precise, Duke Xingguo gave him great support.

Not only did he persuade the emperor to give him a clear order to support him in a "clearing the garrison and replenish the salary" strategy, but he also gave him enough time to rectify his troops.

Therefore, Sun Chuanting not only had money, food and land, but also could select elite troops from the Qin soldiers. If such an army could not defeat those Mongolian Tartars who were as poor as beggars, then what else could they beat Jianlu or thieves? They could just kill them with a piece of tofu!

He was thinking, and suddenly he heard the sound of horse hooves coming, and then he heard the sound and looked at it.

Sun Chuanting discovered that the voice did not come from the north, but from the south, and was also a messenger who rushed to the 800-mile.

When he saw this, he was shocked.

Eight hundred miles of rush is generally not a good thing, but an urgent matter, very urgent matter.

Didn’t the Kaifeng battle be won? Why is there still eight hundred miles of rush? Sun Chuanting was a little confused and thought about the possibility: Could it be that Li Zicheng killed a shot and defeated the Duke?

When he thought of this, he became anxious.

After four or five years of prison, he realized more than ever that it is not just about burying his head in the court, but people in the court must be able to do it.

Now that he has the thighs like Duke Xingguo in the court, he is his greatest support. If possible, what he least hopes is that Duke Xingguo has an accident.

Therefore, he couldn't wait for the messenger to come to the city. He turned around immediately, went down to the city, and went out to welcome the messenger.

……………………

After a while, after listening to the messenger's report and reading the letter, he felt relieved: It's good that the Duke is fine!

But then, he became nervous again. If Li Zicheng plotted against Sichuan and was about to succeed, the trouble would be great. In an urgent letter, the Duke asked him to immediately arrange the border in the northern region to return to the rescue immediately, and take the Shu Road from Hanzhong to enter Sichuan to reinforce the imperial army in Sichuan.

Thinking of this, he immediately turned around and looked north. The fastest one was the cavalry, but now he had been sent out of the pass. When he would come back depends on the grassland war. He also issued a military order to ask each of them to come back with their heads, which would take longer.

Now it's time to delay things!

Thinking of this, Sun Chuanting became a little anxious. However, at this time, he had no means of communication at all, so he could only wait for the cavalry to return by himself.

At this time, it's useless to be anxious.

So, while Sun Chuanting re-investigated the deployment of border city defenses, he was preparing to return to Shaanxi and reinforce Sichuan as soon as the cavalry came back.
