The summer night is short, and although it is not yet midday, the day is quite bright.

But at this time, the endless group of yurts was silent, and even the night guards were now gone. After a night of hard work, when it was dawn and nothing went wrong, the men went back to their tents to rest.

During this period of time, because of the destruction and killing of the Ming army on the grassland, it really brought incalculable casualties and losses to the various departments of the grassland. Not to mention the small tribes that they had brutally slaughtered, even those who had now taken refuge in the most powerful tribe of the steppe around the Gai Beggars, were now in a difficult situation, and their cattle, sheep and horses as property were dwindling at a very terrible rate.

What is nomadism? Because the aquatic plants on the grassland are not abundant everywhere, they are abundant every year, and each of them can only wander around in order to survive, looking for a suitable place for their tribe to live. Often, they stay in one area for two or three years, until the grass in that area runs out of grass before migrating to the next location.

All of this follows the laws of nature, and it also comes from the survival wisdom left by our ancestors. And this time, because of the killing and pressure from the Ming army, many small tribes no longer dared to stay alone on the grassland, and they had to leave their original homes and appear on the grassland that should have belonged to the Gai Beggars.

As a result, this piece of grassland is depleted much faster than before. It has only been two or three months, and the surrounding grasslands have become bare, and it is difficult to graze cattle and sheep at all. And in this case, it is inevitable that there will be disagreements between the Mongolian people in various departments, and even a few lives have been killed because of this, especially the people from the beggar department, who regard these guys who have taken refuge in them as a thorn in their side, and they can't wait to drive them all away.

But because the patriarch Mutu spoke, they could only endure it for the time being. However, the extreme lack of resources still causes a lot of inconvenience to their lives. For example, some industrious herdsmen should have gotten up and driven their livestock to graze, but now, almost everyone is still cowering in their tents, and there is no decent pasture around to graze anyway, so it is better to save the province and rest.

So at this time, the Gai Beggar Station looked more peaceful than the night, and when all this fell into the eyes of Yang Zhen on a mountain bag a few miles away, a bloodthirsty light flashed in his eyes: "It's time to attack!" ”

Two days earlier, under the guidance of the captives, they had rushed to a hiding place only thirty miles from the Gai beggars. Every night, Yang Zhen would take a few people to quietly lean over and carefully observe the defense situation there.

Although the Ming army had almost no defeat in the grasslands before, now, when they wanted to attack such a place where a large number of Mongols had gathered and were the most powerful tribe in the grassland, they still had to be cautious.

And after seeing the defense here, Yang Zhen knew that his decision was completely correct. The Mongols here are always very careful, and even at night there will be two or three hundred people with torches to roam around the station. If they really attack at night like ordinary tribes, I am afraid that before they can get closer, they will already be aware of it and warn the whole tribe.

With the current spirit and combat power of the Ming army, it may be able to rush to the slaughter with a sharp spirit, but it still does not have much chance of winning against an army several times its size when the other party is on guard. So after seeing all this, Yang Zhen unconsciously doubted his original plan.

Fortunately, he is not a person who is easily discouraged, and there is no chance at night, so he will continue to wait to see if there is a chance to be caught before and after dawn. And this time, he really found a loophole, every day around the hour, is the most lax moment in this clan, as long as you seize this opportunity to launch a sudden attack, it is bound to have the effect of attacking the enemy unprepared.

Today, behind Yang Zhen, three thousand cavalrymen were all leading their horses and waiting-two of them happened to come to this vicinity, and they happened to be touched by the people of the Jinyi Guards who were scattered to guard, so they were absorbed into his team by Yang Zhen - they were ready to attack one by one, holding the reins tightly with one hand, just waiting for Yang Zhen's order.

In order to be able to quietly get close to the garrison of the Gai beggars, they had to walk twenty miles on foot overnight to arrive here. But there was no trace of exhaustion on everyone's faces, but a look of excitement on their faces, just waiting for the killing.

If it had been placed in the past, no one would have believed that the Ming army would have such a strong self-confidence and desire to fight in the face of a Mongol who far outnumbered them. However, after more than half a year of killing, these Ming troops no longer have any fear of the Mongolian people, and some only have a sense of urgency to kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions.

After being convinced of the calm and laxity in the Mongolian camp ahead, Yang Zhen finally made a final decision, took a deep breath, drew the long knife on his waist, and pointed forward: "The whole army listens to the order, and immediately assaults!" All of them rushed up, and when they came within range of their crossbows, they rocketed their tents, making sure to disrupt the whole area before we could reach their station! His voice came from the dantian qi and penetrated into the ears of every sergeant.

Everyone nodded with bated breath, but they didn't say yes as loudly as they did in the army before. This is a habit that has been cultivated since the training of this team used for sneak raids, so as to minimize the awareness of the enemy's presence.

"Ying Yang, you lead three hundred people with me to rush straight to their Chinese army tent, this time you must take out their command center in one fell swoop!" After Yang Zhen turned around and made arrangements with Cai Yingyang, he had already slashed the knife fiercely: "Attack!" ”

In an uproar, the Ming cavalry who was draped quickly turned on the horse's back. And the war horses under their crotches are also wearing armor pieces in key positions, which is an extremely rare heavy cavalry on the battlefield today!

Yang Zhen knew very well that against the Mongolian people with light horses, even if it was the elite of the Jinyi Guard, he was not an opponent, since this was the case, he simply used the older heavy horses. Anyway, their purpose this time is to assault and kill, not to chase the north, as long as the garrison of the Gai beggar tribe is completely disrupted and scattered, and then those damned leaders of the various tribes are killed, the other Mongolian people on the grassland will be completely reduced to lost dogs, and it is difficult to form an effective counterattack and threat, and they may even end up becoming the prey of the Ming army scattered all over the grassland.

Of course, the root of all this is that this raid can be successful in one fell swoop, and it will be all in one battle. But Yang Zhen believes that this time, the victory must belong to Daming!

Not only him, but also those soldiers have the same thoughts. Therefore, when they heard the order to attack, they immediately became excited, urging the war horses under their crotches, like black lightning, and without the slightest hesitation, they rushed towards the still peaceful Mongolian station.

In the blink of an eye, five or six miles of road were crossed by the rushing horses, and the earth rumbled and trembled under the trampling of their iron hooves, and everyone had tightened their feet in the stirrups to stabilize their figures, while their hands loosened their reins, and took up their crossbows or bows and arrows, and aimed ahead.

At this time, the gap between the cavalry of the ordinary border army and the elite of the Jinyi Guard was completely revealed. Although the frontier troops were also trying to control their balance, their hands were still up and down because of the galloping horses. But those brocade guards were as steady as Mount Tai on horseback one by one, and those crossbow machines were like cast in pig iron in their hands, and they didn't tremble for a moment, and they aimed steadily ahead.

When they felt that they had run to a place where they were only a stone's throw from their target, they did not hesitate to pull the trigger and sink, and the arrows that had already been ignited immediately rushed towards the tent in front of them like birds throwing themselves into the forest.

......Most of the thousands of rockets landed on those tents, and in the blink of an eye, they ignited the tents made of cow and sheepskin, and the whole area was immediately surrounded by fire, and many people fled from the tents in a hurry, most of them did not even have a single coat, let alone any weapons.

And the Ming army, which was shocked by the 3,000 people, not only did not delay the journey at all, but also showed no mercy in their hands, constantly shooting rockets at the tents that had not yet been ignited in front of them.

At this time, the morning breeze was blowing, and the dry weather of the summer made the fire spread rapidly.

Originally, the tents of the Mongolian people were relatively divided, but because there were many more tribes who had taken refuge in this place out of thin air this time, the station of the Gai Qi tribe suddenly seemed cramped. And in this way, the tent here is even more afraid of fire, and the fire is burned together, and it is too late to save it.

In fact, they had no chance to put out the fire, because the Ming cavalry had already followed the rockets into the garrison.

Even a well-trained army would panic when it suddenly encountered a fire attack, not to mention that there was only a group of herdsmen in the current Gai beggar station. They either fled for their lives in a hurry, or thought of finding water to extinguish the fire, and they were powerless to meet the Ming cavalry who entered the camp.

But the Ming army would not show mercy to his subordinates because of this, spears, scimitars, and stabbed fiercely with the horsepower of several miles of sprint, and slashed into all the Mongolian people in front of them who could still move, leaving behind corpses and a series of screams.

It was not until two or three hundred men had been killed that the Mongols reacted violently, some of them running to their horses, and some of them turned back to their tents to get their weapons and bows and arrows. But more people were desperately running towards the middle of the station, apparently trying to find the soldiers of the Gai Beggars to save their lives.

With only one round of impact, the effect was far better than Yang Zhen thought, and it completely disrupted the entire Mongolian garrison at once.

And he led five hundred of the most elite men and horses, like a quick knife cut into the butter, straight into the big tent of the Chinese army with a wolf's head hanging high!

I suddenly found that the book was full of 3 million words after this chapter, and this was the first novel written by a passerby to be full of 3 million words, so I begged for encouragement!!!!
