Chapter 65: Sonny arrives
The Mongol ambush dispersed. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The officers and men of the First Army began to clean up the battlefield.
Ni Yuanlu walked to a sand dune, looked to the west, and took a deep look.
At this moment, it is already sunset.
Different from the Central Plains, watching the sunset is the west setting in the west mountains. Watching the sunset in the grassland desert is something else. The golden dusk sprinkled on the ground, golden and shining warmly.
At this time, the battlefield was also quickly cleaned up.
The mobility and organizational ability of the new Imperial Royal Army was amazing, and after only an hour, most of the battlefield had been cleared.
This made Xia Chen, who was urging on the side, breathe a sigh of relief: "It's good that the troops were collected early, otherwise we would have to prepare for camping in the wilderness." ”
Not long after, Zhang Ting, who went out to investigate as a striker, also returned.
He said happily: "We found an old city on the edge of the Gray River, which was built by the Mongols. ”
"Good!" Xia Chen smiled: "It seems that there is really no mistake or omission in the previous information. ”
Ni Yuanlu listened to the good news one after another, and couldn't help but high-five and laugh. The three of them looked at each other and laughed.
Yes, winners, deserve to laugh.
The ambush ended in victory for the Ming side, although the Privy Council registered more than 400 casualties and more than 1,500 minor and serious injuries. But they achieved twice as many results, more than a thousand Mongols had their heads smashed into lime boxes, and more than 2,000 prisoners surrendered on the spot. Thanks to the fierce tiger and Zhou Yuji, he led his troops to chase and kill, and killed and injured more than 2,000 people along the way. And this number is obviously only the part that can be counted, and the rest of the numbers that cannot be specifically understood because they cannot be pursued will obviously be higher.
This battle was not only a victory, which inspired the morale of the army, but also made Xia Chen, who was worried all the way, relax a little.
Obviously, after the first battle, the Mongols still wanted to ambush the roadside and had no spare strength.
The Mongol ambush of at least 15,000 men just now was not an easy way to send out soldiers. Even if Wenbu Chushu annexed the entire Tumut Department, there were only 100,000 people under his command, and he could only put together more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, a considerable part of which were reinforcements joined by many Mongolian tribes, such as the Chahar Department, otherwise, Wenbu Chushu would not have chosen to attack together in the east, west, north and south.
The Ming army moved to the old city of Yunnei.
This is a small city made of earth and stones, more dilapidated than Yunchuan Weilai, the city wall is broken in many places, only a few small courtyards in the center of the city are still intact.
All the way in, you can find that the ground is full of messes, and there are not only traces of burning on the ground, but also blood stains that have not been washed away. Obviously, there was also a battle when the main force of the Ming army arrived here.
But there is no doubt that the battle is fought from side to side. Resistance is almost non-existent and is easily crushed, and Ni Yuanlu did not ask about the fate of these enemies.
Perhaps, the Gray River, a tributary of the Yellow River not far away, is their destination.
This is obviously a result that Ni Yuanlu will be satisfied with.
The enemy who dies is the best enemy.
The Ming army stationed in the old city of Yunnei began to work through the night, and they set up camp and repaired the city walls. Capable sappers and abundant supplies quickly transformed the old city of Yunnei.
The proximity to the Gray River also allowed the Ming army to start a grand show: washing.
After experiencing the wind and frost all the way, the mud and dirt on the body are not to mention, after a big war, many people's faces and clothes are covered with blood stains.
In the evening, bonfires are lit all night long.
Fierce as a tiger led the troops to drive back the cattle and sheep in the tribe that ran away along the way, and with the capture, the firehead army showed their might, and the various departments roasted all these cattle and sheep overnight as a reward for this time.
This cheerful atmosphere continued until late at night, when the soldiers attending the bonfire dinner replaced the soldiers who were patrolling outside.
This night, Ni Yuanlu still approved the official document at hand all night, until the outside gradually returned to calm, and then dragged his tired body to lie down, and fell asleep in an instant, extremely stable.
In the capital of the Naturalized City that night, the same bonfires and candles were lit all night.
In the narrow city of naturalization, there were silent people sitting in the conference room of the Metropolitan Mansion.
Zasak Wingbuchu of the Tumut tribe knelt on the ground, and saw the eyelids of the Echen sitting on the top jump, and the fierce light bloomed from time to time.
He couldn't accept a near-perfect ambush that ended in a big defeat.
Although the Tumut army was able to retain half of its forces by retreating on four legs, there was no doubt that it was a defeat. A dark cloud like a smeared magic juice shrouded everyone's hearts, and there was no sunshine in sight, and the gloomy mood made everyone feel anxious and uneasy.
He couldn't stand the atmosphere either.
He wanted to withdraw the defeated general Wenbu Chuhuer and kill him as he instinctively wanted to do the most, to show the severity of military law and the horror of defeat.
But at this moment, it seemed that Eluchen suddenly understood his true strength.
Just now, after Wen Buchu Huer returned from defeat, E's first reaction was not to believe it, and when he understood that this incident had really happened in his hands, Erechen stubbornly didn't believe that the Ming people could have this ability, and he wanted to lead all the remaining soldiers and horses to fight again.
He believed that relying on his command ability, there was no invincible enemy.
No matter how strong the cannon is, he also has it, and it is still the most powerful Hongyi cannon, even the Manchurians.
It's just that the naturalized capital Bayindai shirked and left, returned to the barracks, and never appeared again.
The murderous aura in E's eyes gradually faded, and his reason told him that what he needed to do at this moment was to unite people's hearts and unite the only remaining strength in his own hands. Only in this way will you not be overwhelmed by your own people before defeating the Ming people.
"Didn't such a thing happen in the hands of the Ming people before? Unexpectedly, unexpectedly...... It will also appear in their own hands! "Eluchen was depressed.
He was nostalgic for the old days.
At that time, the army of the Qing Dynasty was invincible, and it was the time to attack the Ming State in a big way. The Ming people had a huge army but fell into a fierce internal friction, and before they started a war with their powerful Manchurian and Mongolian army, they first had internal friction, and finally came out to fight weakly, and were easily defeated by the Qing army.
And now, it seems that feng shui takes turns, and that example of mutual internal friction has fallen on the Mongols again.
"Isn't destiny on me?"
Echen thought bitterly.
The destiny is mine, and it is invincible. If the destiny is not in me, it is hindered everywhere.
He firmly believed in such a ridiculous thing, and did not want to believe a reason that was even more unacceptable to him.
Because...... They are the real weak side.
……
Naturalized City Barracks.
There was a slaughter in the barracks.
Bayindai patrolled for a while, and when he saw that there was silence and no one dared to move in the middle of the night, he calmed down a little, returned to his tent, unfastened his clothes and armor, and planned to rest for a while.
Encamped and encamped are all knowledgeable, even in the barracks, you have to personally stare at Bayindai every day to rest assured. The situation has been tense recently, and Bayindai is naturally more cautious, lest his last bit of capital disappear because of some chaos.
This part of the soldiers and horses really belonged to the Qing Dynasty, and many of the officers and elite Bayala guards were Manchurians from Liaodong and belonged to the Yellow Banner.
Originally, they symbolized the Qing Dynasty's rule over Mongolia, and later, General Suiyuan would be stationed to strengthen his control over Mongolia.
Of course, now the Qing Dynasty is far from defeating the Ming Dynasty, there is no entry that will happen at this time in history, and naturally there is no such thing as taking over the world. General Suiyuan has no shadow, but as the capital of Naturalized City, Bayindai is the spokesperson of the Qing Dynasty in Naturalized City.
It's just that this spokesperson is not having a good time right now.
The Ming Dynasty is still the second, and the most annoyed is naturally the fear and anxiety that ******** at the moment as a real speaker on the Mongolian steppe, as well as ...... Nest fire.
There is no doubt that if the former emperor Huang Taiji was there, no Mongol would dare to make such a mistake. I don't know how many people trembled when Huang Taiji led the army on the grassland and knelt on the ground to surrender.
If one person dares to ignore the majesty of his own naturalized city capital, then he will definitely usher in the end of death and annihilation.
He did not usher in this fate, and under the situation of the Ming army's large-scale killing, he united the Mongol tribes to resist the Ming.
Thinking of this, Bayindai couldn't help laughing: "Join forces to resist...... Is Akito that easy to fight? An ambush, an ambush that took advantage of the right time, place and people, even ended up in such a defeat. Eh, this idiot...... So many lives have been lost in vain! Do you still want me to go with me to death, and you don't want to think about how many pounds and taels you have? ”
A catharsis was spit out, Bayindai's heart was much happier, and he smiled lowly, but his laughter gradually became more and more bitter.
No matter how much he ridiculed this Mongolian barbarian who did not respect himself, he still had to admit that the current situation was really developing against them.
And he and Eluchen are still grasshoppers on the same boat after all.
"How will the next battle be fought? Is it possible to fight a battle with the Ming people to defend the city? Bayindai sniffed in annoyance.
"Of course, why not?" At this time, a mysterious voice shouted out, chuckling, but it made Bayindai creepy: "Who is it?" ”
"It seems that ten years have passed, and Bayindai's courage is still so small. It's just that ten years have passed, and you can't even remember who I am. A man dressed in a full house walked into the tent, and in front of the butter candle, he showed his face in front of Bayindai.
"Is that you? You're here! Sony...... You...... You...... How did you end up here? Aren't you in Shengjing? Wait a minute...... Could it be ......" Bayindai's expression on his face quickly changed, first with horror, then with shock, and finally, with a sudden surprise.
It was as if a drop of honey was melting in his heart, and it made Bayindai so happy that he wanted to jump high.
That's right, the person who appeared in front of Bayindai was none other than the Qing Dynasty's important minister Sony, who came to the aid from Shengjing and represented that the Qing Dynasty would never give up its Mongolian policy!
The appearance of Sony obviously means that the Qing Dynasty will not give up Mongolia, and it will not give up Mongolia.
"That's right, Bayindai, your courage is a little smaller, and your intelligence hasn't changed. I was able to come, of course, because the Qing Dynasty would not give up on Mongolia. My arrival naturally brought reinforcements from the Qing Dynasty. The Ming people want to wreak havoc on the grassland, but they are far from qualified. As for this steppe, of course, I want the Qing Dynasty to lead the commander, and no one, no Mongol, can make trouble! After saying that, a cold light flashed in Sony's eyes.
When Bayindai heard these words, his heart was about to explode with joy. This word and sentence hit the place that Bayindai cares about the most and itches the most.
Without guessing, Bayindai understood that Sony was talking about the Jinong Echen of the Ordos Department who committed the rebellion!
"Great, great. I really won't forget it, I don't forget it! Reinforcements are coming, reinforcements are coming! That's great! Bayindai sang and danced, and didn't care about it anymore.
After a long period of joy, Bayindai finally suddenly said again: "By the way, Sony, how many soldiers and horses did you bring this time?" Depending on the situation, the Ming people who came back this time are not idle people. Let's get ready for the lion to fight the rabbit! ”
"You're pretty good at dragging words. Lion fights rabbit...... That's a good point......" Sony hesitated slightly, and finally exhaled heavily: "This time, I personally led the yellow flag to help." ”
"Positive yellow flag? Okay, good! Bayindai laughed in surprise, singing and dancing again.
Sony was stunned for a while, but it took a while to understand.
Although Bayindai is a general of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, he is located in a remote area, and he doesn't know that Zhenghuangqi has gone through several hardships at this moment, and it has been damaged to the point that it is not in shape.
If it was two years ago, the Zhenghuang Banner was really the most powerful force in the Eight Banners of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and this emperor's army was not only huge in scale, but also first-class in combat effectiveness.
It's just that now, it was really a remnant of the defeated army, and it was not easy for Sony to pack up his morale to help.
It's just that it's okay to misunderstand. Morale, sometimes more than anything else.
As for deception?
Fancies......
It's kind of deception.
"No matter, just win!" Sonny thought to himself, exhaling heavily.
"Of course, everything has to be able to win...... Sonny held this thought in his heart, and then thought about it and whispered to Bayindai: "In the past few days, you will first deal with the snake with that minister, and let the Mongols fight the Han people with all their might." I personally led the Yellow Flag in Fengzhou, and when the time comes, the opportunity to determine the battle is on my Qing Dynasty warriors! Let the Mongols and Han people understand who is the king of the steppe! (To be continued.) )
