When Liu Xingzuo heard this, his mouth opened wide in surprise. He didn't expect that the grassland war would be able to completely annihilate Lin Dan Khan! That's 30,000 or 40,000 tribes, and it's still on the grassland! It's not easy to defeat them, and they can still be completely annihilated, which is really an unprecedented victory, not to mention that the rich Hetao can be included in the territory of the Ming Dynasty!

"Your Majesty, this ...... Is this true? Liu Xingzuo couldn't believe it, so much so that he stammered and reconfirmed.

He was born as a military general, so he knew that the Mongols were no different from cunning foxes in the steppe. Seeing that you have a lot of people and strong troops, people immediately patted their butts and ran away, the grassland is boundless, and there is no way to chase it. If they see that you are few people, they will immediately hang you, harass you, beat you, and let you die on the grassland.

It is precisely for this reason that in addition to the founding of the Ming Dynasty for decades, at other times, the Ming army rarely entered the grassland, and it was the Mongols on the grassland who invaded the pass.

When Emperor Chongzhen saw Liu Xingzuo's surprised appearance, he couldn't help but feel a sense of accomplishment in his heart and smiled with satisfaction.

If you really want to talk about it, the reason why this war can have such a result is that luck accounts for a large part.

For example, the battle of Daixian allowed 5,000 thieves to escape from the pass, instead of annihilating them. And when the five thousand thieves ran to the grassland, Lin Dan Khan actually led the army to the west to chase the king of Shunyi, and Ezhe, who was in charge of guarding the city, took people to hunt, so that the thieves robbed the naturalization city!

Then, because of the magical chat group, Li Guo was added, so that Daming knew everything about the Naturalization City. Wang Jiayin, the leader of the thieves, also happened to get the jade seal of the country, and then dreamed of being an emperor, and was instigated by Li Guo, who provoked the Mongols to attack Guihua City regardless of casualties.

So many things add up, which gives the Ming an opportunity to mobilize heavy troops, and has a calm deployment, and then when the Mongols and thieves are exhausted, they reap the benefits of the fisherman!

This war can really be said to be unexpected, and it is reasonable!

Thinking of this, Emperor Chongzhen told Liu Xingzuo a little, and when he saw his sudden realization, he told again: "In order to achieve the best effect, before the good news of the battle of Guihua City reaches the Jingshi, you must keep it secret!" ”

"The last will understand, the last will obey!" Liu Xingzuo showed excitement on his face, and hurriedly responded.

Knowing this, he also has a bottom in his heart, and understands how he can do it in order to achieve the effect that the emperor wants.

Liu Xingzuo only thought about it for a while, then said his general idea, and got the permission of Emperor Chongzhen, so he quit and went to work.

Emperor Chongzhen smiled, looked up at the sky outside, and entered the chat group to learn about the battle of Guihua City.

At this time, on the grassland where the Naturalization City was located, the war was nearing its end.

When Lin Dan Khan fled westward, if his two left-wing commanders helped him stop the Ming troops on the southeast side, then he might really break out of the encirclement. But to his anger, he fled westward, and his two left-wing chiefs, who had vowed to stay behind, ran northeast.

As a result, at least half of the Ming army surrounded Lin Dan Khan's side. Even if the grassland is open, the Daming Iron Cavalry is waiting for work, and there are more people than him, so it has become a trend of encirclement in advance. In addition, Lin Dan Khan's subordinates were attacking Guihua City before they fled, and they had already consumed a lot of physical strength. As soon as these several reasons are combined, even if the morale of the two sides is not equal, Lin Danhan does not have the ability to escape from the encirclement.

Even in order to ensure that Lin Dan Khan would not slip through the net, Hong Chengchou, the governor of Yansui, sent the Mongolian messenger back, and then used a telescope to locate Lin Dan Khan there. After that, the cavalry sent from his own camp were all selected to collect the elite at night, one man and two horses, and they did not intend to let go of any of the Mongols on Lin Dan Khan's side.

Lin Dan Khan's banner has long since fallen, and there are fewer and fewer Mongols who are still resisting. This relieved Hong Chengchou, who was observing with a telescope from afar. He knew that this battle would only be perfect if Lin Dan Khan was captured. Now it seems that there is no problem in the total annihilation of the Mongols on the western side.

Relieved, Hong Chengchou turned his head to look at the northeast of Guihua City, the Ming Iron Cavalry according to the prior deployment, heavy troops to block the northern area, driving the Mongols here can only flee to the east.

Originally, under the siege of the Ming iron cavalry in the north and east, only about one-third of the Mongols escaped in the end. When Hong Chengchou saw this, he turned his head and ordered Li Dingguo beside him: "Tell General Wu to let him follow the pursuit and not let the Mongols have a chance to breathe!" ”

After finishing speaking, he added: "Also, inform Deputy General Cao, tell him about the location of the fleeing Mongols, and let him intercept them in advance, so that the remaining Mongols must not slip through the net!" ”

"Yes, Lord Zhongcheng!" Li Dingguo still had a somewhat immature voice, and after answering with full excitement, he immediately entered the chat group and conveyed Hong Chengchou's order in the temporary group.

When Lu Ruipeng and Gao Yingyuan saw it, they immediately notified Wu Sangui and Cao Wenzhao.

Huluk Saisan and Tashheycesan were still secretly proud at this time, letting Lin Dan Khan, the great god, attract the attention of the Ming cavalry, and the two of them were finally able to break through. If you wait for the east to flee to Daikin's side, take refuge in Daikin, and get shelter, then you will be safe! They didn't know that Da Ming had laid a net in front of them again, waiting for them to get in.

When Huluk Saisang and Tashhai Saisan were escaping, they turned their heads to look at the Ming cavalry chasing after them, looked at each other and smiled, both of them breathed a sigh of relief. The difference between them and Lin Dan Khan's side is that today's siege is not their turn. And the two of them already have plans to return to the east to join Jianyu, so they can be regarded as prepared. Although he broke out of the encirclement of the Ming cavalry and lost two-thirds of his men and horses, he finally escaped.

They didn't believe that the Ming army could catch up with them on the grassland, so the two even had time to shout and talk to each other.

"I really didn't expect that Ming Guo would send so many troops to retaliate for a time in Gansu to fight Grass Valley, it's really crazy!"

"Yes! But the most unexpected thing is that the Ming army actually came from all sides at this time, and our Tanma didn't even have any news in advance. ”

Generally speaking, at least the night of the Ming Kingdom should appear on the grassland, find out the situation on the side of Guihua City, and keep abreast of the movement and report it to Kannai. Then gather troops, send troops outside the border, and so on. These things will take at least many days. For such a long time, they didn't even find a trace of Ming Guo's night retreat, which was what they couldn't figure out the most.

The two chatted while running, and when they arrived, they lost their minds to talk, because the Ming army behind them didn't seem to have the slightest intention of giving up.

At this moment, Huluk Saisang pointed ahead a little desperately and said, "It's coming to the Ming Kingdom cavalry again......"
