Chapter 743: The Bloody Battle of the Drinking Horse River (I)

Hmph, Su De didn't say it right away, but the faces of the subordinates in the tent changed greatly, and Chambala, the fierce man with the name of the Han White Tiger, got up and said, "Great Khan, think twice." We are not afraid of mercenaries, but it really doesn't make sense to do anything with them as a bird, and doing so will only cheapen others. ”

"Yes, the Great Khan, this kind of thing of making wedding dresses for others is really not worth it." Another general, Bao Yin, also stood up and expressed his opinion.

Both didn't think it was worth fighting the hired one. One of the reasons may be that there is no benefit in winning, and defeating will only damage one's own strength. But the fact that the mercenaries had defeated Agadorji's 50,000 cavalry was also the reason why they felt scared and didn't want to fight.

How could Sood not see what these two generals were thinking? He didn't want to fight, so he took advantage of this step and said, "Hmph! Even if the two generals have the same opinion, then we will withdraw, first withdraw to the north of the Yuma River, and then see. ”

Sood made the decision to retreat, which was a wise move. Speaking of which, the main force of Mobei Mongolia is to the north of the Yuma River, and he has already sent another general under him, Narisong, to integrate the cavalry and young men of various tribes. The reason why he will advance prominently and entrench himself in the Jieshenggang area is just to control more territory and grab more rich resources. But now that the mercenaries have appeared, and a city has been built, it is equivalent to knocking out all his ideas.

Sud Khan retreated, which was considered a wise choice, and the dozens of tribes below had to put down their temporary camps, put down the abundant water and grass grazing land in front of them, and retreated back with the Khan.

Not everyone is obedient, there are always some people in this world who are not afraid of heaven and earth, and they are optimistic that even if the sky falls, there is a high top. As for their own obscurity, no one will fight their ideas.

Speaking of which, there are still many such people, who can't make up their minds, and give up the abundant aquatic plants in front of them and choose to stay. They had a hint of luck, the mercenaries would not notice them at all, they would pass by them, and they should go after the main force of the Sud Khan.

In the past, it was difficult for Yang Chendong to find them, but since he got the information provided by Muren, he had a good grasp of the distribution of Mongolian tribes in the Jieshenggang area. When the scouts at the front came with the news that the Sud Khan had begun to retreat, but some small tribes and even some individual people did not listen to the persuasion to leave, he immediately seized the opportunity. "Don't stop, the Jurchen vanguard regiment will continue to pursue, let the reinforced cavalry regiment rush forward and plunder the population and livestock."

It was not only the Mongols who plundered people and goods, but also the mercenaries. Today's Shicheng is under development and construction, and the most lacking thing is the population, which are all good seedlings. Judging from their attitude of asking for money and not wanting their lives, if you get these people to Shicheng and see the prosperity and development there, I am afraid that they will not leave if they are bombarded by the time.

Yang Chendong's analysis is good, he can know that the mercenaries are coming, but he still can't give up his current territory, and he doesn't want to die. After they were looted and went to Shicheng, they really liked it very quickly, and made great contributions to the development and construction of Shicheng in the future.

That's all for later, just talk about the present. When the commander of the Chasing Wind Regiment got the military order and began to raid the Mongolian tribes separately with the battalion as a unit, this behavior shocked many people.

Don't they all say that robbing people and things is their specialty? Why did these Han armies also learn from them? Could it be that others say that the Ming Dynasty is vast and has a large population, is it a joke?

No matter what these people thought, the reinforced cavalry regiment chasing the wind did not have the slightest mercy in its actions. From tribes ranging from hundreds or nearly 1,000 people to small individual households with only three or five people, they have not spared a single one. According to the information provided by Mu Ren before, they are looking for one by one.

In some places, according to the information, there were no people in sight, only some traces of the tent rising from the ground. But in some places, a large number of horses, sheep and livestock were found, and there were a few Mongolian people with terrified faces.

According to the military order, the mercenaries did not kill anyone as much as possible, as long as the other party did not resist, they would just be taken away with the livestock. On the contrary, if they want to resist desperately, they will not be soft, and they will not even get close to the enemy, and arrows from a distance are enough to kill people.

This created a situation in which Sud Khan and his army continued to walk in front, and behind him, more and more tribesmen who refused to leave became prisoners at the hands of mercenaries. And when this kind of news began to gather one by one, it finally attracted the strong dissatisfaction of the Sud Khan, and even the generals and soldiers below also had angry expressions on their faces.

Angry, Su De also knew that if he returned now, if he fought with the mercenaries, he was afraid that he would only lose both, for the sake of the future, for the sake of the overall situation, he had to endure it, but he still said unforgivingly, "Hmph! Mercenaries, you have remembered for me that the contempt and sin that have been imposed on us today will surely be repaid tenfold and hundredfold in the future. ”

In just 12 days, the reinforced regiment looted about 5,000 Mongolian people, and the number of horses and sheep caught was incalculable.

Suddenly, so many prisoners and supplies were added, and the progress of the mercenaries was greatly slowed down, and the pace of the army's movement began to slow down. Fortunately, too many were captured, especially some of the rebellious Mongols, and after their deaths, those horses and sheep became ownerless, and they were left to the disposal of mercenaries.

"Kill some of the ownerless fat sheep to replenish the food of the army, and at the same time send someone to inform the former commander of the army, Yela, to slow down the pursuit and wait to join our army." When he learned that the Jurchen cavalry regiment under Yela's department was already a day's journey away from the main force of the army, Yang Chendong issued this order.

To say that Yang Chendong's military sensitivity is really strong, he will correct it immediately if he feels the slightest mistake. But after this order was issued, it was still a little late, and the Jurchen cavalry regiment at this time had been closely targeted by the Sude Khan.

They were chased all the way for twelve days, and even Mobei Mongolia escaped one step ahead, so they escaped for more than twelve days. Finally, they came to the side of the Yuma River, and once they crossed this river, they could gather more Mobei Mongol cavalry in front of them. When he came here, Sud Khan's confidence became much tougher.

Especially when he walked here, when the scouts in the rear came with the news that a cavalry team of 3,000 people was following him fifty or sixty miles behind, and the main army of mercenaries was a day's journey away before they could arrive, Sud Khan's eyes showed a smile that he had not seen for a long time.

"Hahaha, with only three thousand cavalry, do you dare to pursue us so close? If you don't know whether to live or die like this, then don't blame me for eating you. "With so few troops on the other side, Sud saw hope. Constantly retreating, the morale of the entire large tribe is now very low, and now a victory is urgently needed to inspire.

Immediately summoned his two generals, Chambala, and Baoyin, and after expressing his thoughts, Sud Khan looked at them expectantly, waiting for their decision.

The two generals could not have imagined that the Soviets would have the idea of fighting the mercenaries of the [8th District]. But when they heard that the other party had only 3,000 cavalry behind them, they also became excited.

Although mercenaries are hard bones and not easy to gnaw, the result is likely to be a lose-lose situation. But the enemy army only has 3,000 cavalry, and even if it is hard fighting, its own losses should be limited. The important thing is that they have been running for so many days, and they have long held back a fire in their hearts, and if they have the opportunity to send it out, it can play a great role in improving the morale of the army and the people.

"Hit." The two generals only hesitated for a moment, and then immediately made the same decision.

"Can't fight." Just as Sud Khan was still excited about the actions of the two generals, another crisp voice came from the tent door, and then the figure of the county lord Narentoya entered the big tent.

Because of the figure, before the person arrived, the vast big breasts squeezed in first. Then the beautiful shadow of Lord Toya appeared. She first glared at the two generals, especially Bao Yin, who had repeatedly said that the mercenaries were very powerful, and it would be worth the loss to fight them. But now, she is also in charge of fighting, which makes her a little disappointed.

After looking at the two of them, Toya's eyes fell on Su De's body, "Father Khan, you can't fight." The mercenaries are so powerful that even the most skilled in warat is no match for them. Earlier, there was news of the destruction of the 50,000 cavalry of Agadorji, and we fought with them, and it was difficult to win and defeat. ”

"What do girls know?" Seeing that his daughter dared to question her decision to be a father, Su De's face immediately showed anger.

can become a khan, there must be merit in his body, and his long-term ascension has also formed a unique domineering spirit. On weekdays, even a brave and skilled person like Chamubala would not dare to look at him, but today in front of Toya, she was indeed not afraid and looked back into her father's eyes. "Fighting with mercenaries will only plunge northern Mongolia into a place of no return."

Living on the grassland since childhood, she is accustomed to life and death after fighting with the enemy, which also makes Toya admire the hero even more. And a long time ago, when she learned that the traitor on the grassland was also defeated by a young genius of the Ming Dynasty, she had the idea of admiration, and she always wanted to see each other to see what kind of person he was, and he could defeat the traitor of the grassland with less than one-tenth of the troops.
