After traveling in Tahu City for more than a month, Shuofang Army, who had returned from victory, was finally able to rest and have a good rest.

The remnants of the new army recruited by Du Hongyu were assigned to the infantry battalion by Gao Jin, and the veterans of the remnants of the Zhejiang Army were even assigned to the infantry battalion, Zhonglei Battalion and Shooting Battalion as officers.

Gao Jin did not rush back to Shenmu County. The Korqin tribe is now facing him. He wants to operate near Tahu City for a while, at least let Korqin and Khalkha tribes join forces to resist the attack of the Later Jin Dynasty.

"Wenzhao, you have to be wronged and stay in Tahu City for some time."

Gao Jin met Cao Wenzhao alone. Cao Wenzhao married Mangus' daughter as a side room. Beiweiying also defeated the cavalry of the Korqin tribe, and kept him guarding Tahu City. The best choice was to choose.

"I wish to serve the Great Protector."

Cao Wenzhao said in a deep voice, talking about the side room he married, Erdenikikige, although he had married, he was only twenty years old. It was a time when he was so beautiful that guarding Tahu City was not a chore for him.

"The Beiwei Camp suffered a lot of losses in several battles. I would like to allow you to replenish troops in the Korqin tribe. But it is better to be too short than to be too bad, and you must be loyal to our Shuofang first."

Gao Jin ordered Cao Wenzhao that he would expand his army at present. The cavalry was mainly recruited from Mongolian troops, and he brought his own horses in the walls. The good family members who were good at riding and shooting were trained by him as guards and grassroots officers.

"Don't worry, I will know what to do!"

Cao Wenzhao nodded. As the Great Protector returned to the northern expedition, the soldiers of the Korqin camp returned to the tribe and naturally pushed the Battle of Feifen Mountain to the sky. His cheap father-in-law, Mangus, became even more and more respectful of the Great Protector.

After seeing Cao Wenzhao, Gao Jin met several people one after another. At present, his territory outside the wall spans more than 3,000 miles from Inner Hetao to Liaohetao, but there are only a few cities in his hand. Although most Mongolian tribes now learn how to build silage cellars, plant pasture, and raise cattle and sheep in captivity, it still takes time to promote it.

The Korqin tribe will become the front line for the Shuofang Army and the Later Jin Dynasty to compete for the Jurchen tribes in Haixi, so Gao Jin had to spend more time. In addition to Cao Wenzhao, he also kept several old brothers as Tahu City. In addition, Hou San and other civil servants transferred from Shuofang City were all left in Tahu City to help the Korqin tribe's registered households Qimin.

"Mr. Hou, I have to work harder for you next."

Gao Jin was very sorry for Hou San. Hou San had never been safe in the past two years, but he did help him manage Shuofang City in an orderly manner. At first, there were only 20,000 people in Shuofang's tribe, and Gao Jin still felt it was difficult to support it. But now the population near Shuofang City has doubled, but there has been no problem.

"You are kind to me, this is what I should do."

Hou San still called Gao Jin as the master when he came to Tahu City. This time, he not only brought nearly half of the civil servants from the Shuofang Protectorate, but also transferred ten experienced households from the Shuofang tribe to come over. He knew that the master's rule over the grassland was actually to be accorded households and the people were transferred to the land and return to the land.

At this time, Zaisai, the young master of Neikhalk, suddenly asked for a visit. After Gao Jin called him in, Zaisai said straight, "The Great Protector is partial. My Neikhalkha tribe can join you earlier than the Korqin tribe. Why did Daduku not let General Cao and Hou Changshi build a big city in my Neikhalkha..."

Gao Jin looked at Zaisai with anger and couldn't help but shake his head. Zaisai was quite a bit miserable in the war, but his head was much worse. "Zaisai, I want to be a clerk in the Korchin tribe. Wu Keshan can be this master. Can your Nei Khalkha tribe do it?"

"How can I not do it? If Wu Keshan can do it, can I do it?"

Zaisai still didn't understand what Gao Jin meant, but just said with his neck in his mouth, calling Gao Jin couldn't help but laugh, "Then go back and ask your uncle, will he agree? If he agrees, I will send someone to your Nei Khalkha tribe to build a big city."

"Thank you, Protector."

When the Zhasai heard this, he said happily, and then hurriedly retreated. After he left, Gao Jin couldn't help but say to Hou San beside him, "Mr. Hou, do you think you will agree to fry flowers?"

"Fried flowers are an old fox. After three dynasties in the Ming Dynasty, he just pretended to be confused because he understood it. This time he was afraid he couldn't pretend."

Hou San replied that the master now detained the Mongolian tribes, not relying solely on force, but the Shuofang textile industry with the wool trade as the core can allow the Mongolian tribes to obtain wealth that they thought they could not imagine without looting, especially for the herdsmen at the bottom, who would be able to eat and wear well, who would still be willing to go to the side walls to serve as cannon fodder for the nobles?

A few days later, Zaisei found the uncle who was fried flowers and asked to understand, "Uncle, the Protector said that as long as you agree, our Nei Khalkha tribe can also build a big city..."

The fried flowers looked at the excited Zai Sai, but at this time he didn't know what to say. Of course he knew the benefits of having a big city, but the Great Protector wanted to all the households and the people. In this way, wouldn't the realities and weaknesses of the Nei Khalkha be controlled by the Great Protector, not to mention that the reputation of the Great Protector is now at its peak. As long as the Great Protector is willing, some of the lower-class herders of the Nei Khalkha tribes are willing to defect to them.

"Uncle, why don't you speak? Don't you?"

Zaiser stared at his uncle blankly. Now all the warriors of the Neikhalkha tribe support him. It would not be difficult for him to really be the Khan of the Neikhalkha tribe.

"Zaisai, do you know that the majority of the Protectors in the Korchin tribe wanted to form households and people, and they would collect taxes in the future."

"I know, so what?"

The fried flowers couldn't help but feel speechless. The Korqin tribe was defeated by the Shuofang army. Mangus's hometown was a coward. Otherwise, after losing the battle of the Nine tribes, he would not have married his daughter to Jianzhou. Now the Great Protector is much stronger than Nurhaci. Who in the Korqin tribe dares to say no?

"Uncle, it is not a bad thing for the Protector of the Great Protector to be a household and a commoner. We don't have to worry about the lives and deaths of the ministers. It is even better to collect taxes. The Protector of the Great Protector will not treat us unfairly."

Zai Sai was a lot of bachelors, and he was not so energetic. In his opinion, it didn't matter if the troops were handed over to the Protectorate. In the past, the herdsmen were suffering, and they could not get any benefits even if they squeezed them. However, when they reached the Protectorate, the herdsmen could pay taxes, and they got more benefits than before.

The fried flower knows that Zaisai is right, and this principle is not false. But if this continues, the majority of the Protectors will kill them. Is the Nei Khalkha tribe still the turn of the nobles to make the decision?

Listening to the uncle's concerns, Zaisai couldn't help but sneer, "Uncle, is it useful to think so much? If the Dadushi really wants to form a household registration for us, what can you do if you don't agree? Could it be that we can beat the Dadushi's protector?"

In Zasai's opinion, the older my uncle is, the older he is, and it is obvious that the Protector of the Great Protector controls the grassland. Instead of hesitating there, it is better to be completely loyal to the Protector of the Great Protector.

The fried flowers were finally convinced by Zaisai. In fact, he couldn't agree. He was already old and the so-called prestige was meaningless under Zaisai's knife. It would be better to be decent.

So, before Gao Jin set out to return to Shenmu County, he left three thousand troops stationed in the Neikhalkha tribe, and at the same time asked the Shuofang Chamber of Commerce to allocate more supplies.

...

Gao Jin did not follow the army, but brought nearly a hundred personal guards, each with several horses, and rushed back to Shenmu County with whipping horses.

So nearly two thousand miles away, but in just half a month, Gao Jin had already returned to Shenmu County, and the latest news from the capital had just arrived.

In the steaming wooden barrel, Gao Jin enjoyed the gentle pressing of Mulan's fingertips on her head, and his face was full of comfort. In the next few years, he did not plan to go out to fight, but focused on managing the territory within the pass.

"Mulan, I won't leave in the next few years. Let's spend time with you, Ping'er and the others."

After hearing this, Mulan couldn't help laughing, but did not take this seriously. She just said, "When will you go to Camel City?"

"I'll leave tomorrow. Can the eldest son's funeral be delayed?"

Gao Jin's originally relaxed expression became solemn. Du Hongyu led his troops north and sent his youngest daughter to Mulan. However, Du Hongyu still had other wives and children, and the sending from the capital was not good news.

After Wei Zhongxian fled Shenyang City, there were indeed nearly 10,000 officers and soldiers in Liaoyang, but most of them were used to make up for the numbers. In the end, when Wei Zhongxian left Liaoyang, Guan Bingzhong and others could only try their best to defend the city. When Wei Zhongxian returned to the capital, Liaoyang City was also lost.

Li Rubai, who surrendered to the Later Jin Dynasty, surrendered to the vicinity of Tieling, and the commander of the Korean army, Jiang Hongli, also surrendered. Then, the two armies merged and ambushed the officers and soldiers of Malin, who had no idea. So far, the 100,000 troops organized by the court spent 3 million taels to be lost. The worst thing is that both Liaoshen and Liaodong are lost.

At this time, the court sent Xiong Tingbi to Guangning City to preside over military affairs, but in the court, officials began to argue about who should take the blame. Yang Hao died in Shenyang City, and finally pointed his finger at Fang Congzhe, the chief assistant.

Fang Congzhe immediately resigned from the chief minister, and Emperor Wanli was furious for the fall of Liaodong. Then Wei Zhongxian, who was also attacked by censors, was exempted from punishment for his previous memorials that were left behind.

In the secret letter, he also brought a lot of news that Wei Zhongxian had heard from the inner palace. The Ming Dynasty could not get the silver to continue to fill it in the hole in Liaodong. Emperor Wanli was unwilling to use the silver in the inner treasury again. He even took Wei Zhongxian's previous memorial and put on the appearance of a deputy to thoroughly investigate the Ministry of Revenue, the Ministry of Works and the Ministry of War, which made the officials retreat.

Gao Jin knew that Liaodong fell into Nurhaci's hands early, and the Ming Dynasty would probably not have any chance to retake it.
