After the gunfire.

E'linchen and Omubu rode on horseback and followed Liu Wenyao forward.

The three men and three horses quickly arrived in front of the Yongwei Camp formation.

The cavalry of the Yongwei Camp was divided into three phalanxes.

The first phalanx was composed of scouts, also known as scouts.

They wore fitted cotton armor, carried command flags on their backs, had soft bows placed behind their waists, and sabers hung around their waists.

Seeing the Mongols coming, Li Xianzhong, the deputy general of the Yongwei Camp, immediately urged his horse forward, and the soldiers behind him also straightened their backs and assumed a proud attitude.

Li Xianzhong clasped his fists and bowed to Liu Wenyao: "Reporting to Commander Liu, the Brave Guard Battalion has been ordered to go out of the city to welcome the Mongolian envoys. The number of people who should have arrived is 3,080, and the number of people who actually arrived is 3,080."

"Thank you, Lieutenant General Li!" Liu Wenyao saluted Li Xianzhong with a fist.

Li Xianzhong pulled the reins of the warhorse, and the horse retreated to make way.

Liu Wenyao made progress on par with E'linchen and E'mubu.

He pointed to the first column and introduced them to the Mongols: "You two, this is the Brave Guard Battalion of His Majesty's personal army!"

"Oh?" E'linchen and Omubu immediately became alert and looked at the Yongwei Camp with scrutiny.

Liu Wenyao waved towards the scout formation.

Hundreds of scouts shouted in unison: "The Ming army is mighty!"

E'linchen and Omubu nodded in agreement: "Your Majesty's personal army is indeed worthy of its reputation!"

After passing through the scout formation, Liu Wenyao pointed to the second formation and said, "You two, this is the light cavalry formation of the Yongwei Battalion."

The two looked around and saw a phalanx of elite cavalry appear in their field of vision.

They wore shiny iron helmets and brand new cotton armor.

Not only the people, but even the warhorses under their crotches were wearing half armor.

E'linchen looked carefully and found that these so-called light cavalry were equipped with a large number of firearms in addition to traditional cold weapons.

In other words, their equipment was almost the same as that of Liu Zhaoji's troops who fought deep into the grasslands.

Thinking of this, E'linchen looked at Omubu.

Omubu was also looking at him.

The two looked at each other. Although they didn't say anything, they were complaining in their hearts at the same time: This is light cavalry? The Ming army called all armored cavalry light cavalry?

Liu Wenyao looked around and asked, "What do you think of these cavalrymen?"

"He is tall and strong, well-equipped, and truly a brave and skilled fighter!" E'linchen praised.

Liu Wenyao smiled and continued moving forward.

He knew very well that Chongzhen's purpose was to show strength to the Mongols, so he mobilized all the elite troops.

The three of them quickly came to the third party, which was the heavy cavalry platoon of the Yongwei Battalion.

Although there were only more than two hundred people, the momentum they displayed was comparable to that of two thousand.

E'linchen's eyes were fixed on the armor of the heavy cavalry and he kept staring at it.

Liu Wenyao waved to a heavily armored cavalryman: "Come here."

"Gee!" The heavily armored cavalry urged their horses forward.

Liu Wenyao said to E Linchen: "Just take a look, there's no rush."

E'linchen was not polite either. He urged his horse to come up to the heavily armored cavalry and took a closer look at them.

The armor covers a very large area.

There is a neck guard under the iron helmet, followed by a breastplate and skirt armor.

The hem of the skirt armor covers to the knees, providing additional protection for the legs.

The armor is made of countless overlapping iron plates, which can not only resist arrows but also withstand light firearms.

The iron sheet reflects a dazzling blue light under the sunlight.

E Linchen reluctantly withdrew his gaze and said to Liu Wenyao: "Governor Liu, let's continue walking."

"Okay!" Liu Wenyao led them to move forward.

Further ahead is the Beijing Camp Formation.

The Beijing camp only dispatched a small number of cavalry, and the rest were all infantry.

They stood behind the Red Cannon with their heads held high.

Looking at the hundreds of red cannons placed on both sides of the official road, E'linchen and Omubu grabbed the reins of their horses at the same time.

Fear, fear from the bottom of my heart!

Especially Emubu, who was in the city when the Ming army attacked Guihua City.

He was deeply impressed by the artillery carried by Lu Daqi.

Liu Wenyao pretended not to notice their reactions and introduced himself: "Ladies and gentlemen, this is the Red Cannon!"

"Red Cannons have different weights and calibers, and their power also varies. The lightest weighs only a few hundred pounds, and is very convenient to carry in field battles. The heaviest weighs up to 10,000 pounds (exaggerated), and has a range of ten miles. It is generally only used for defending and attacking cities, and cannot be used in field battles."

"Oh oh." E'linchen and Omubu couldn't help but nodded.

"You two, the city gate is just ahead. Let's hurry up and get into the city," Liu Wenyao reminded loudly.

“Oh, Governor Liu please!”

"You two are guests, please go first!" Liu Wenyao said while suppressing his laughter.

"No, no, Governor Liu, please go first, we will just follow behind!" E'linchen and Omubu rejected Liu Wenyao's kindness.

It’s not that they know etiquette, but they are frightened by the dark muzzle of the gun.

They didn't know whether the cannon was loaded with gunpowder and projectiles.

Even if you know you are not pretending, you will still feel fear.

Fear of firearms!

"Okay, both of you follow me!" Liu Wenyao took the lead and crossed the artillery position.

E'linchen and Omubu followed closely behind in fear.

After passing through the official road lined with artillery fire, both of them breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

After passing the infantry and cavalry phalanxes of the Beijing Camp, the delegation arrived outside Fucheng Gate.

Looking at the high city walls and wide city gates, Omubu was the first to sigh: "The capital is really like this, exactly as I imagined."

E Linchen also sighed: "Yes, I didn't expect to be able to come here in this life!"

After expressing their feelings, the two slowly walked into the city gate.

After passing through the city wall and arriving on the street, they were immediately shocked by the prosperity of the capital.

This place is completely different from the grassland.

Apart from herdsmen, cattle, sheep, wolves, mice and rabbits, it is difficult to see other living things on the grassland.

In the capital, people are everywhere.

The streets are lined with all kinds of goods, from silk to ceramics, from spices to snacks.

The vendors' shouts were heard one after another, pedestrians were coming and going in an endless stream, and the sounds of bargaining were heard all the time.

In shock, the Mongolian delegation arrived at the post station.

After staying overnight, E'linchen and Omubu got up early, changed their clothes and attended the morning court.

While waiting outside the palace, E'linchen and Omubu began to worry about their own fate and the fate of the tribal herders.
