Besides, even if it is to play a deterrent role, if the strength of the chosen opponent is too weak, even if the effect is limited.

"Raise the tent to summon all the division and regiment commanders to hold a military meeting." After issuing an order to Yang Er, Yang Chendong walked straight towards the military headquarters building that had just been built in the city.

And it didn't take long for this grassland land to boil. Two pieces of news broke the calm of the prairie summer.

The first news is that Shijo has begun to open up wasteland nearby, and although the time is not right, it is obvious that he is preparing to plant crops for the coming year. I heard that there are hundreds of thousands of acres of fertile land that have been assigned to it. This is naturally not too much in the Central Plains, but on the grassland, where war can occur at any time, this courage is a bit great.

And just when some forces are still thinking about why mercenaries have such boldness, aren't they afraid to plant them, the seeds are planted, and they will be robbed when the harvest comes? Just when such thoughts were still echoing in the minds of some leaders of the surrounding forces, the second news came.

In view of the fact that the Mobei Mongols instigated the Golden Family's Wuqisi to come to Shicheng to cause rebellion, the mercenaries decided to fight back to shock the people. In other words, the mercenaries are going to choose Mobei Mongolia as their opponent to start a war.

The news has just been spread, and some people are confirming the truth of the news. The mercenary army had already been assembled, and they left the city and marched straight to the Jieshenggang area of Mobei Mongolia.

It seems that in order to strengthen the effect of deterrence, this time Yang Chendong personally led the troops, and the troops who fought included 5,200 people from Leng Feng's 3rd Division; 3,000 Jurchen cavalry regiments; The Tatar cavalry regiment of 3,000 men, plus the reinforced cavalry regiment of 3,200 men, a total of nearly 15,000 cavalry, went out of the city.

There are more than 10,000 people left in the city, including the independent regiment of Humang, the second cavalry reinforced regiment and the logistics regiment, even if there is an enemy attacking, there is absolutely no problem in holding the first city for a certain period of time.

The army went out of the city, and the vast cavalry team walked for several hours before leaving the city from the north and east gates, and then gathered in one place outside the city, and went straight to the direction of Jieshenggang with great momentum.

From Shijo to the Jiekagang area, a convenient way to get around is the Tatar-controlled capital city, which is later known as the Reiji Spring.

When the news came that the 15,000 cavalry of the mercenaries were approaching, General Muhito, who was defending the city, was frightened.

As a large force in the local area, Muren also has 3,000 cavalry and 2,000 infantry in his hands. Speaking of which, the capital city is not very big, let alone prosperous, and even extremely poor. It was enough to have these forces to protect himself, but when faced with a mercenary army of 15,000 cavalry, he still did not have the slightest confidence.

The previous Agadolji also belonged to the Tatar forces, and there were still 50,000 cavalry? But isn't it still defeated at the hands of mercenaries? Now that they are on the line, will there be good fruit to eat? Is it possible to win?

Mu Ren didn't have any confidence in his heart, and in desperation, he decided to cooperate with the mercenaries. Especially when he found out that one of his old men was still a high-ranking mercenary general, he immediately sent his own messenger to find the head of the Tatar cavalry regiment, Su He, to find out.

Muren sent a messenger, and Su He did not choose to meet at the first time, but called Chang Gushan, the company directly under the regiment, and asked him to watch the people, and then he personally went to ask to see Yang Chendong to inform the sixth young master of the matter.

Su He was originally the general of the defeated army, and was favored by Yang Chendong because of his outstanding ability. For him, Yang Chendong also let go of the enemy Agadorji's son Hara Ruochu, which can be said to have given him enough face, and therefore made him sacrifice his loyalty. Telling Yang Chendong about it this time is a way to express his attitude.

Knowing that Muren wanted to cooperate with him, Yang Chendong said to Su He with a smile on his face, "You can tell the other party that we have no intention of dealing with each other, but they must also abide by their duties, don't be delusional about the idea of fighting Shicheng, and there is also about Mobei Mongolia, he has to tell us as much as he knows, if the sincerity is not enough, then it is not good to say whether we will pick up the grass and beat the rabbit, and even solve it with them." ”

Yang Chendong has the confidence to say this kind of thing, in his opinion. With 15,000 elite cavalry in hand, a small capital city, there are only 5,000 soldiers, which is really nothing.

Su He took the order and left, saw the messenger sent by Mu Ren, and conveyed the order of the sixth young master, the messenger left in a daze, what is sincerity enough, not only did he not explain it clearly, but Mu Ren himself also knew nothing after hearing this answer.

"Forget it, don't think about it so much, immediately send someone to write down all the news we know about Mobei Mongolia, and hand it over to the mercenaries." Muren couldn't understand this sentence, but all he had to do was to do his best, if this couldn't satisfy the mercenaries, then he would have to fight, and he could only accept his fate.

"Do you hand it all over? We don't have to keep some? If Mobei Mongolia is severely damaged by mercenaries, then our existence will really become a threat. The messenger whispered.

"If we don't hand it over, I'm afraid we won't be able to survive this hurdle." Muren shook his head, as if he had made some kind of decision. Then he glanced at the messenger and said, "Okay, let's do it immediately." ”

They are all mixed in the grassland, they are all from Mongolians, and Muren did collect a lot of news and intelligence about Mobei Mongolia before. Before, it was just for self-preservation, worried that the other party would fight his own idea, but he didn't expect that one day these messages would be able to be used, used to curry favor with mercenaries, and to save himself.

After the news was summarized, the envoy worked hard again and sent it to the hands of the head of Su He, and finally placed it in front of Yang Chendong. Looking at the stack of intelligence and information that was more than half a person high, Yang Chendong laughed and said, "Yes, it seems that this Muren is still very interesting?" In this case, inform the vanguard commander Yela, and let them bypass the capital city and go straight to the Jiekagang area. ”

Yang Chendong knew that in the chaotic grassland for so many years, there were so many forces that he couldn't solve it alone. Even if it is not possible to do so for the time being, then it is better to set up a benchmark first, that is, to deal with those hostile forces first. The capital city is so close to the first city, if he can keep it, wouldn't it be tantamount to telling others that as long as you are honest, everyone can get along well, isn't this an example?

As for the Mobei Mongolian Division, that must be solved. Although it is very difficult to achieve the result of annihilation, and I am afraid that it will not be possible to do it even with this amount of troops, it is indeed necessary to inflict heavy damage on the opponent, and if you do not do so, it is not enough to deter others and establish authority.

This time, all the cavalry brought out, and the logistics regiment did not accompany them. The soldiers of the army each prepared twenty days of dry rations, that is, before and after, unless they could grab a large amount of grain and grass from the other side, they would be able to hold out for about twenty days, and if they were unsuccessful, they would have to return.

This is also a habit of the Mongolian cavalry, or a kind of helplessness constrained by the general environment. There is no supply, there is no logistical supply, and I don't know how many people with lofty ideals end up wasting their time on this. But because of this, the distances between the tribes are relatively long, forming a natural and natural safe distance.

Just like the information sent by Mu Ren said that the entire Mobei Mongolia exists in a tribal dispersion mode, and the farthest distance between their tribes has reached nearly two thousand miles, which means that no matter how hard Yang Chendong and them try, this time they will not be able to run the entire territory of Mobei Mongolia.

Even if you can't do it all, then choose a key place to strike. Seeing the information sent by Muren and comparing the map, Yang Chendong focused his attack on the area west of the Yuma River.

The Yuma River is like a moat, which is naturally established. In its north, the Sanfeng Mountain, the mouth of the Three Gorges (Kanghariha) and other places, there are many tribes of Mobei Mongolia stationed. However, attacking across the river was originally a taboo for soldiers, which was tantamount to cutting off one's own rear road to engage the enemy. This is not what Yang Chendong wants to see, and there is no need for him to take such a risk in the current situation. It would be better for him to stop when he got there, and then put constant pressure on the Mobei Mongol tribes in the area south of the Yuma River, forcing the other party to take the initiative to attack him.

This is equivalent to turning passive into active, and as long as the mercenaries make enough noise in this Jieshenggang area, he will not worry that Mobei Mongolia will not be fooled and will not come to find him, and he can wait for the opponent at that time and fight with him.

The mercenaries were determined to rush like a swift arrow from the edge of the capital to the area of the Yuma River.

Mobei Mongolian Department.

The news of the mercenary army's sudden and large-scale attack was known to them before the army reached the capital.

After so many years of operation, it can be said that their scouts are everywhere, and the mercenaries have no intention of hiding their traces, so the news came as soon as possible, and the moment he got the news, he was so angry that Sud Khan widened his eyes and blew his beard. "The mercenaries are simply unsightly, but they are extremely angry."

It's no wonder that Su De would say this, he is the Khan of Mobei Mongolia, representing a powerful Mongolian force, and ordinary people are afraid that they will go to them for trouble, and who will take the initiative to provoke them? Not to mention, Wu Siqi is not from his own tribe, he is the envoy of the Golden Horde, he is a member of the Golden Horde, what do they have to do with themselves?

Su De was very angry, thinking that this was a mercenary underestimating him, thinking that the other party clearly did not dare to provoke the Golden Family, so he hit the idea on himself. "What? Do you really think that if you win the battle against us, you can look down on us? That's it, huh! ”
