The four armies of Lingbei fled in a hurry, and the elite militia naturally refused to give up such a good opportunity. They gathered from all sides like wolves, waiting for an opportunity to cut off the heads of the invaders and replace them with the big circle at hand.

The four leaders were scared by the grenades, as if their spinal cord was broken. The wind and cranes and trees were all in the way, and they did not dare to stop at all. They ran to the vicinity of Sanniangzi City and stopped their escape.

In this battle, the Wuwei Army consumed more than 12,000 grenades, almost half of the grenades stored in Shuozhou, which made Sheng Kunshan a little annoyed:

"In the entire Jingzhou army, Shuozhou only has more than 25,000 grenades. It consumes half of the amount of intensity in just one battle with a low intensity. This is simply a waste of resources! What a pity! What a pity!"

Zhang Fengyi didn't care and smiled and said, "What's the pity? If it weren't for the grenade, the four Lingbei tribes would have suffered such a big loss?"

Zhang Fengyi's attitude angered Sheng Kunshan. He raised his voice and shouted: "Do you know how much the cost of a grenade? How much the cost after being transported to Shuozhou thousands of miles away? This commander tells you! The cost of a grenade is about a big circle! Grenades are inconvenient to transport, so you need to be very careful. After transporting to Shuozhou, it is almost worth two big circles! Ten thousand two thousand grenades are 25,000 rounds!"

Zhang Fengyi took a deep breath and said in surprise: "So expensive?"

Sheng Kunshan took a deep breath and ignored Zhang Fengyi.

However, Huang Bo then did some calculations for Zhang Fengyi: "Commander Zhang, 12,000 grenades, causing more than 2,000 people to be lost to the four divisions of Lingbei. In other words, killing a Tartar will cost about ten big circles. The reward we gave to the militia is worth five circles. From this point of view alone, the cost of using grenades is not as good as recruiting more militias!"

Zhang Fengyi knew that Huang Bo was joking and knew that the account could not be settled like this, so she didn't refute it, just muttered: "Is it necessary to save money for him? Anyway, he has money!"

Although Zhang Fengyi's voice was light, Huang Bo and Sheng Kunshan could hear it clearly. For a moment, the two of them had rich expressions and didn't know how to speak.

After a moment of silence, Sheng Kunshan coughed, cleared his throat, and said, "The four divisions in Lingbei have lost more than 40%, and have basically lost their combat effectiveness. At present, in addition to the more than 8,000 light cavalry of the Tumote tribe in front of Shuozhou and more than 2,000 heavy cavalry led by Oboi, Ajige is leading more than 3,000 heavy cavalry to arrive? Arriving in Daihai, he is approaching Shuozhou. I estimate that after Sun Chuanting was taken over, the Xuanda defense line was in chaos. The Tartars could not gain any advantage in Shuozhou, and they were likely to target Xuanfu and Datong!"

Huang Bo frowned and thought for a moment, and hesitated: "According to the governor's words, Shuozhou is a thorn in the eyes of the Tatars. The Tatars must deliberately knock out our tentacles that stretch into the grassland. If the Tatars aim at Xuanfu and Datong, our connection with the grassland can be restored immediately. The Tatars do this is tantamount to acquiescing strategic failure. From this point of view, I think the Tatars will not give up Shuozhou easily, and it is likely that the main force will continue to put pressure on Shuozhou and block the trade route. On the other hand, Xuanfu and Datong are in chaos, and the Tatars are greedy and will not give up the great opportunity of plundering, so they may send partial troops to plunder the front line of Xuanda."

"The main force continues to be stationed on the banks of Qingshui River and only sends off-straits to attack Xuanda's defense line?" When it comes to the big strategy, Sheng Kunshan felt a little dizzy and asked in confusion: "So, is Obai recalling the four divisions of Lingbei from Hequ, and is this idea?"

Huang Bo said: "It's probably the case. Our troops in Shuozhou cannot be moved to Xuanda at will."

Born on three sides of Shengkun Mountain, he was deeply aware of the sufferings of the people during the plunder of the Tartars, so he naturally wanted to do his part to consolidate the Xuanda defense line, but Huang Bo's inference was reasonable, which made him a little annoyed.

He said unwillingly: "Sun Chuanting was arrested, and the Shaanxi army was unstable; Wang Jimo was new and had not experienced a war in his life, and the Xuanda defense line was worrying. If the Tartars really opened a gap in the Xuanda front line, the partial army could receive reinforcements at any time and become the main force. If this is the case, we will be passive!"

Huang Bo sighed and said sadly: "Now we can only hope that the Xuanda defense line will last longer and the loss will be less. We can't get involved in Xuanfu and Datong, so we can only do this!"

As he was talking, he suddenly received a secret letter from Lin Chunhong.

Lin Chunhong said in a secret letter that Sun Chuanting is likely to be in prison in the near future. Even if the court immediately appoints the Governor of Xuanda, Xuanda's strength will be greatly weakened.

The enemy is facing the enemy, but the disaster is caused by Xiao Wall, and Xuanda is in danger. In Shuozhou, we can send people everywhere to Datong General Wang Pu, Xuanfu General Yang Guozhu, Shanxi General Xu Dingguo, Shaanxi General Zuo Yi, and Zheng Jiadong, to form a joint military office to coordinate the actions of the various troops.

In a secret letter, Lin Chunhong clearly informed Huang Bo and Sheng Kunshan that the main purpose of forming the Joint Office of the Military was to allow Shuozhou to dominate the defense of the entire Xuanda University.

As for how to operate, Lin Chunhong raised several key points. On the one hand, the source of information in Shuozhou is more timely and can share information with the army; on the other hand, if the army has difficulties, it can support it as much as possible; finally, no matter whether the war is big or small, Xuanda faces, they will formulate combat plans through the Joint Office of the Army, issue orders, and try their best to make the army develop the habit of following the joint orders.

Finally, Lin Chunhong even wrote in a secret letter: "... Joining the Joint Office of the Military is a major measure of the Jingzhou Army in integrating the Ming army. Be careful! Be cautious!"

...

After reading the secret letter, Huang Bo seemed to be immersed in it and shouted repeatedly: "Mire! Mire! Mire!"

Three wonderful words made Zhang Fengyi very curious and couldn't help asking: "Can you look at it?"

Sheng Kunshan handed the secret letter to Zhang Fengyi and said, "Of course!"

Just as Zhang Fengyi read the secret letter, Huang Bo was happy and said excitedly: "The current dilemma of the Governor's plan can be described as being solved easily. What's more important is that the Governor looks at the long-term. I'm afraid that after several years, General Sheng will order Xuanda to be the front line, and no general dares not to follow!"

Sheng Kunshan was also extremely excited and said with his fingers: "Wang Pu, Yang Guozhu, and Xu Dingguo are all worthwhile. If it is estimated that they are not bad, they are very interested in joining the joint office, and at most they send a less important army to join the army... As for Zheng Jiadong, Zuo Yi, promoted by Sun Chuanting to the army, are experts in the battle. Now they are suspicious of the court. We can take advantage of the situation and win over two powerful generals first!"

Huang Bo said: "Although Wang Jimo first arrived in Xuanda and was a young man on the battlefield, he was at least the governor of Xuanda officially appointed by the court. I am worried that Wang Pu and the three generals would push this matter to Wang Jimo. It would be better to do this. On the one hand, we will start with Wang Jimo and try our best to persuade Wang Jimo to set up a joint agreement for the military; on the other hand, use intelligence sharing as bait, and gather the troops together first!"

...

The three of them discussed until late at night and finally decided on a specific action plan, and they will be implemented tomorrow.

Wang Jimo, a native of Fugu County, Shaanxi Province, had his courtesy name Xianwo. At the end of the tenth year of Chongzhen, after being captured by the Tatars in Ji and Liao, he was promoted to the Governor of Miyun by Zhu Youjian. Later, Sun Chuanting issued an imperial edict and was transferred by Zhu Youjian to serve as Governor General of Xuanda.

Miyun, it is close to the capital, what happened in the capital, and why Sun Chuanting issued an edict to imprison him, Wang Jimo naturally knew very well. From the heart, Wang Jimo would never be willing to serve as the Governor of Xuanda at this time.

Wang Jimo estimated that after taking office, the primary problem faced was the tens of thousands of Tartars gathered outside the Great Wall. Although the Tartars suffered a loss under the attack of the Wuwei Army, who can guarantee that they would not take advantage of the opportunity to change their commanders to stalkers on Xuanda?

Moreover, Wang Jimo knew very well that Zhu Youjian asked him to serve as the Governor of Xuanda, and he also hoped that while maintaining Xuanda's defense line, Miao Li promoted silver notes!

With the enemy in front of him, the Cavalry Army and the Wu Guard Army are eyeing each other, so it is not easy to promote silver notes!

What's more, there are also thousands of Shaanxi soldiers brought out by Sun Chuanting with one hand and one foot. Now, Sun Chuanting is being arrested, and whether the Shaanxi soldiers will invade the rebellion is still between the two.

At this time, Governor Xuanda was a hot potato no matter how you look at it!

However, Wang Jimo did not have the right to refuse. According to Zhu Youjian's habit, if you like someone, you must do it if you don't!

Wang Jimo reluctantly went to Xuanda to take office. On the first day of the first day, he announced Sun Chuanting's crimes, and the Jinyiwei escorted Sun Chuanting to the capital. Zheng Jiadong, Zuo Yi and other generals were dissatisfied and were about to slap the table. Fortunately, Sun Chuanting was very wise and stopped the generals in time, but it did not cause any major disaster.

In this way, Wang Jimo could also use his toes to think about what attitude Zheng Jiadong and Zuo Yi would take to deal with him in the future.

As for the three generals including Wang Pu, who have experienced Wang Jimo for half his life in the officialdom, how could he not see these bastards having a face in person and behind their backs?

Wang Jimo only felt that he was struggling and thought hard day and night, but could not make up for it. He was angry for a moment and wished he could return home.

After thinking about it, Wang Jimo believed that dealing with the tens of thousands of Tartars in front of him was the top priority. Thinking of Sun Chuanting's incarceration of the Tartars' target in Shuozhou, Wang Jimo never longed to obtain real information like he is now.

To get the latest and most authentic information, the shortcut is of course in Shuozhou.

Wang Jimo was not worried about maintaining his authority and was about to send someone to Shuozhou to contact him when he suddenly received a report: Huang Bo arrived in Yanghe and submitted a letter to ask for a visit.

As the saying goes, if someone wants to sleep, someone handed him a pillow. Wang Jimo was overjoyed and asked someone to bring Huang Bo in.

After the two were kind enough, Huang Bo recorded the past of the Great Border Army that caused significant losses due to lagging intelligence and insufficient coordination. In the end, Huang Bo proposed to set up a joint military agency in Datong to share intelligence and coordinate the actions between the various armies.

Wang Jimo was moved and couldn't help but sigh that there was something about losing his pie in this world. Didn't Huang Bo's proposal to share information just solve his knot?

However, Wang Jimo has been an official for many years and is well aware of the tactics of trying to get. He hummed and didn't express his opinion, and kept asking about the recent trends of the Tartars in his words.

Although Huang Bo didn’t know what Wang Jimo’s true attitude was, he knew at least that the latest information in his hand was the biggest reliance, so how could he show any slightest slightestness?

He said over and over again: "Mr. General Secretary, when the Joint Office of the Army is established, everything will be known. Why should we hurry at this moment?"
