In the next nearly two months, the game of cat and mouse continued to play out.
However, there were very few sneak attacks by the opponent's cavalry.
However, due to the vastness of the northern border area, the Polu army still felt overwhelmed.
A total of three hundred cavalry and nearly a thousand mounted infantry were constantly rescuing and patrolling the wilderness.
Even Zhao Lie personally dispatched twice.
Since the opponent was a cold weapon, arrows had basically no impact on Zhao Lie.
As for the hand-to-hand combat, Zhao Da and others were really not worried, so they did not stop him and allowed him to enjoy the battle.
In late August, the long-awaited Cavalry General Qian finally set off from Fangmao Port and advanced eastward.
In fact, they had already arrived for more than ten days.
However, most of the horses were sluggish after more than ten days of wind and waves, and more than fifty of them even died of illness. .
Therefore, they could only rest and recuperate in Fangmao Port.
At the same time, they requisitioned more than 800 Jeju horses from Fangmao Port as spare horses for training.
After the horses recovered their strength, they then headed east.
Outside the Peking Camp, Cavalry Commander Ma Quanfu, Deputy Commander-in-Chief Wang Haizhou and other cavalrymen saluted Zhao Lie with a military salute, and Zhao Lie returned the salute.
Seeing the flags fluttering and the new troops arriving with bright armor, the grievances of the past two months were wiped away.
Because the army and horses occupied too much space, the cavalry commander Qian built a new battalion on the east side of Beidaying.
Amidst the noise of people shouting and neighing, Zhao Lie summoned Ma Quanfu, Lu Dengzhou and others to discuss the battle plan in Beidaying.
"I ordered the cavalry to mobilize eight hundred troops and divide them into four teams.
Each team has two hundred men and horses.
One person and two horses will go deep into the enemy's territory.
The villages encountered by the enemy will be burned, the horses will be brought back, and the fisheries and forestry will be burned.
The enemy's brigade came to avoid the battle. , the team came to eat them.
In short, we just let them cry through the cold winter, forcing them to stay away or fight with us."
Zhao Lie said with murderous intent.
Ma Quanfu shrank his neck and deeply felt Zhao Lie's anger.
How aggrieved the master must be to be so angry.
He silently expressed his condolences to the Anui people.
Ma Quanfu and Wang Haizhou loudly agreed at the same time.
The two of them were laughing from ear to ear.
"Lao Ma.
Lao Wang, you have got a good job.
You can fight with the enemy with real guns and swords.
Unlike me who is waiting everywhere to support you and is so busy.
The Anui people are so slippery that they just won't fight you.
It’s so frustrating,” Lu Dengzhou said with envy.
Ma Quanfu and Wang Haizhou laughed even more, feeling very proud.
"Old Wang.
How about you stay here and I lead the troops out.
I said, don't worry.
My riding skills are acceptable..."
Huang Maolin said half-truthfully.
"Old Huang, I said, our cavalry commander Qian did not go through the battle formation properly.
Your infantry troops fought in Jeju, Tieshan, and Beihua.
Our cavalry didn't even touch a hair.
You can take this too, I said, You, Lao Huang, are so useless."

The rough Wang Haizhou glared and cursed.
Ignoring the laughter of several people, Zhao Lie went back to his tent to rest.
These days had exhausted him.
Now that his men had arrived, as the lord, it was time for him to take a good rest.
Yanayahi rode a Jeju horse and led two hundred generals of Polu cavalry to approach the residence of a small tribe by a river.
They were just thatched houses with fences outside, but they were obviously for defense.
It's a beast and doesn't have much effect on the enemy.
The Polu cavalry approached the fence at the entrance of the village in the early morning mist.
No one was guarding it.
After all, it was in the northern interior and there was no war.
Dozens of Polu soldiers surrounded the outside of the village.
The remaining more than a hundred Polu soldiers entered the village silently and began to clean up people door to door.
All young and strong men would have their right thumbs cut off, and other women, children, old and weak people would be cut off. was driven outside.
For a time, the whole village was filled with cries.
The helpless cries of the Anuis made Yanayahi feel uneasy.
However, he could only hold it back because his family had already owned fifty acres of farmland. , the people of Ming Dynasty also sent people to teach them how to cultivate crops.
He also had money to join the army, and his life became more and more prosperous.
And everyone here dares to resist, unlike me, he kept talking in his heart to calm himself down.
This village is mainly a fishing village.
There are not many large livestock, only six horses and three cows.
These were confiscated.
Then, the Polu army set fire to all the houses in the village and left the village, leaving only helpless people.
Anui fishermen and village in flames.
In the next few days, such things continued to happen in front of Yanayahi's eyes.
He was already numb.
He was just a guide who was transferred, that's all.
He was not a savior, so he warned himself.
"Sir, can you please not execute them?"
Kawei stepped forward and said.
"You are asking for help for the gangsters whose hands are stained with Mingren's blood."
Wang Haizhou looked at Kawei with cold eyes.
In a nomadic village in the north, after gathering the people in the village, they discovered three Anui people who had attacked the Akira people.
The deputy general Wang Haizhou ordered them to be hanged as a warning to others.
The guide Kavi tried to stop it.
"Sir, they are just following the orders of the clan leader, and their crimes will not lead to death."
Kawei said bravely.
"I only know that their hands are stained with Ming people's blood."
Wang Haizhou waved his hand, and the three people were hanged from a big tree in the village.
Kawei sat on his horse and looked at the village behind him that was engulfed by fire and smoke.
He felt both angry and helpless.
His entire tribe had accepted Mingren's conditions.
Mingren was also trustworthy and allocated acres of land and taught his tribe members how to farm.
The ironware, needlework, cloth, salt, sugar, etc. sold to them were much cheaper than Kazuto's, which was very reasonable.
However, Kawei felt as if he had lost something, especially when people from other tribes of the same origin and species were suffering.
However, he understood that the tribesmen who had already led a better life would not resist.

No, they had already I have lost my will to fight.
The northern plains fell into a crazy panic.
In half a month, more than a dozen tribes and dozens of villages were burned down.
Thousands of Anui people were left empty-handed.
Winter was about to enter in more than a month.
Many of them People will not survive the spring.
Many tribes fell into crazy civil strife, looting supplies, and conflicts over houses continued to occur every day.
Even nearly half of the tribesmen of the Kutunaban and Degasi tribes were robbed.
The two tribes each summoned more than a thousand people to search for the Ming people's cavalry.
He wanted to eliminate these active demons, but Akito didn't want to fight against the large group of Anuis.
Using the speed and endurance of the Mongolian horses to swim and fight, one person and two horses were so fast that the cavalrymen riding the short Ezo horses were helpless and could not catch up with Akito.
How to intercept the enemy and fight to the death. at this time.
The Anui people no longer actively harassed Akito.
They have too much time to take care of themselves.
Most of the Anui people don't even know how to survive this winter.
How can they take care of Akito?
After all, Akito is still in the southwest, and the extreme cold will be just a month away.
The fragile alliance between the Kutunaban and Degasi tribes broke down.
Many people in the Degasi tribe believed that Varanasi had angered Akira and brought disaster.
Kasiti refused his request to continue sending troops.
Even within the Kutunaban tribe, there are many people who believe that the patriarch’s wrong decision has ruined the tribe and greatly reduced Varanasi’s prestige and shaken its status.
Varanasi also did not expect Akito's revenge to be so fierce and swift.
He just knew that there was probably no hope for Hokuriku.
Next year would be their defeat.
They would either surrender to Akito or die in battle.
Then head to the Tokachi Plains in the southeast.
However, there are also other tribes competing for survival territory there, and Kazuto has also penetrated there.
For the first time, Varanasi, who calls himself a wise man, feels that there is nothing he can do.
There is no place for them to stand in the vast Ezo land.
Wan Ji and others took advantage of this peaceful period to reclaim more than 200,000 acres of land for the 60,000 Liao people who had already arrived in Beihua.
By mid-October, they expanded the area of Beihua to 43,000 acres.
Thousands of acres.
Nearly 40,000 acres of land were allocated to newly arrived Liao residents.
Other refugees will have to wait until next year.
Zhao Lie did not wait any longer.
After all, the sea was closed in winter, and he did not want to be trapped on an isolated island, far away from the Ming Dynasty.
He needed to be in charge of Jeju, Shidao and Jeju, so he and Alexandra returned to Jeju with the fleet and took the opportunity to Alexandra, who is always helping the busy refugee camp, takes a break to relax.
"Dad, I can't stand it anymore.
I really can't walk anymore.
Take a rest."
Fang Gaoshan called out.
Fang Shun didn't say much and stopped to rest.
Fang Gaoshan's heels were blistered by the string of his cloth socks.
He was carrying a big bag.
Sweet potatoes are very tough.

Fang Shun sat on the ground, wiped his sweat, and felt dizzy looking at the pile of sweet potatoes in the distance.
Today is the day to harvest sweet potatoes.
The father and son of the Fang family went to the battle together.
When he saw six or seven white sweet potatoes in a row on it, Fang Shun felt lucky.
It was a good start.
He hoped it would always be like this.
So the three father and son got busy happily.
They harvested two acres of sweet potatoes.
Most of them looked like this.
When they harvested nearly ten acres, they were stunned by the piles of sweet potatoes piled everywhere.
No, it can’t happen again.
It’s a problem wherever these sweet potatoes accumulate.
You can dig more cellars for storage, but it will only last for a few more months, and it will be a worry even if there is a good harvest.
Thinking of this, Fang Shun completely lost the motivation to work just now.
"Village chief, village chief," someone shouted loudly down the gentle slope.
"Hey, something happened here."
Fang Shun heard the voice belonged to Lao Hu, who was near the roadside.
"Village chief, someone is coming from above."
Old Hu yelled in a loud voice.
"Okay, I don't know what's going on."
Fang Shun hurriedly walked downhill to the roadside.
"Old Fang, hurry up."
A middle-aged man riding a horse shouted on the side of the road.
Fang Shun heard that it was Lao Wang who was in charge of this area of communication.
Nowadays, the notification of events in each village relies on a horse team of more than a hundred people.
This horse team is responsible for notifying big and small matters and delivering letters.
Although it comes in wind and rain.
Go, but he has a salary, which is very enviable.
"Old Wang, what's the matter?
I'm busy with the autumn harvest."
Fang Shun hurried over.
"You can tell by looking at your appearance."
Lao Wang said with a smile, "But you have to treat me this time."
"What's the reason?
Tell me."
Fang Shun said with a smile.
He had joked like this many times.
He really didn't care.
Lao Wang was so busy every day that he couldn't find anyone else to treat him to.
"The last batch of Liao residents this year has arrived at Fangmao Port.
Your family has arrived.
Do you think you should treat us?"
Lao Wang said with a smile.
"Really," Fang Shun was overjoyed when he heard that he finally came.
He was so excited that he was worried about his old wife and daughter.

"Of course, this batch has the families of many people, so I have to be busy for several days.
These are all yours."
Lao Wang handed over a dozen notes to Fang Shun, and the first one on them was Fang Shun's name.
Fang Shun's hands trembled with excitement, the family was finally reunited.
"Old Wang, when your sister-in-law gets home in a few days, I will definitely treat you to venison."
Fang Shun said excitedly.
"Lao Fang, let's get busy first.
I'm just joking and joking."
Lao Wang urged the Jeju horse under his crotch, and the horse trotted forward.
The contrast between the smaller horse body and the thick Lao Wang was very funny.
Fang Shun turned around and walked away, planning to tell his son the good news.
Unexpectedly, the sound of horse hoofbeats sounded, and Lao Wang came back again.
"Old Fang, seeing how busy I am, Mr.
Zhao of Fangmaogang has informed me that the administrative secretary of Fangmaogang will purchase all the white sweet potatoes and grains from all the villages and have them placed in all the villages.
If the losses are too great, they will not be collected."
Fang Shun suddenly felt that today was truly blessed by the Buddha, and whatever he thought of came to him
