【Chapter 435】The Mongols sat on top of the crater
"Bastard!" Lin Dan Khan was furious again. [Full text reading]
During this period, the number of times Lin Dan Khan lost his temper was increasing.
Today, in fact, it is a small thing. There was a Mongol commander who was unfortunately ambushed by the white-clothed army and was killed. At the same time, there were more than two dozen other Mongol cavalry. Such news, in this period, cannot be regarded as news at all. Under the frantic attack of the cavalry of the White Army, the Mongols had no ability to fight back. If the Mongols don't die one day, Gui Yingcha will be embarrassed to report to Lin Dan Khan.
However, when the news came, Lin Dan Khan suddenly couldn't hold back. He scolded Gui Yingcha who reported the news, and almost scolded Gui Yingcha to the point of coma. The people around him were sweating at that time, for fear that he would draw a knife and kill Gui Yingcha. Fortunately, such a tragedy did not happen in the end. To be honest, Lin Dan Khan's endurance is also limited. Before, he had been trying his best to curb his emotions and prevent himself from breaking out, for fear of disturbing the morale of the army. But now, he finally couldn't help but explode.
There is no way, the white-clothed army is getting more and more excessive, and even dares to fight the idea of a thousand commanders. According to his Lin Dan Khan's orders, in the face of the attack of the white-clothed army, the level of a commander will not be easily dispatched. However, this commander was dispatched. This shows that his endurance has also reached the limit, and he can no longer endure it. He must be the only one who has such a situation. A thousand commanders died today, who can guarantee that tomorrow there will not be a thousand commanders? Who dares to guarantee that one day, he, Lin Dan Khan, will not die here?
To be honest, the current Lin Dan Khan regrets it a little. He began to reflect on his stubbornness and the damage it had caused to his troops. If he had withdrawn earlier, there would have been no such tragic situation. The current white-clothed army is like a maggot on the tarsal bone, and it can't be driven away. They kept harassing the Mongols day and night, which made the Mongols very annoying. The Mongols had no other option than a great retreat.
The loss of more than 1,000 people every day made Lin Dan Khan feel very heartbroken. These are all his elite warriors, and it's a pity that they are gone. If they encounter other opponents, the Mongols will definitely gain countless benefits by paying the same price. Especially the iron lance cavalry under his command, they are all his treasures, and it is a pity to lose one. From the perspective of the surname-price ratio, it is completely worth the loss!
At the same time, the morale of the Mongols almost fell to the bottom. Every day is in a state of passive beating, always bullied by others, but he has no chance to fight back. Such a state of grievance is simply crazy. The desire to retreat is getting stronger. To be honest, as long as you are a normal person, you will not want to stay here and be beaten. Withdraw to the city of naturalization, and there may be a way to live. If you continue to stay here, there will definitely be only one dead end!
There was no way, Lin Dan Khan had to repeatedly declare that reinforcements would arrive soon, so as to relieve the irritability of the troops and improve the morale of the troops. In fact, where the reinforcements were, Lin Dan Khan himself did not know. Because of the encirclement and interception of the cavalry of the white-clothed army, the connection between him and Guihua City was temporarily cut off. He simply had no way of knowing exactly where the reinforcements were. However, it is certain that the White Army will not let the Mongol reinforcements arrive easily. Xu Xingxia is not good at stubble, he will definitely send troops to intercept the Mongol reinforcements.
In fact, Lin Dan Khan's speculation was not wrong. It is true that the white-clothed army will not let the Mongol reinforcements easily reach the battlefield of Baihuze. Xu Xingxia did send an interception force. Just last night, a group of white-clothed cavalry, under the leadership of Feng Qingwu, quietly left Baihuze and rushed to the direction of Wuliang Suhai. These cavalry are the stragglers of the Eagle Cavalry and the Eagle Cavalry. In addition, there were stragglers of the Vulture Cavalry led by Zhang Yi.
The Vulture Cavalry led by Zhang Yi is definitely a new force for the White Tiger Ze battlefield. Originally, they were responsible for garrisoning the central guard of Ningxia to prevent the attack of the officers and troops from Gansu Town. However, intelligence from all sides shows that the situation in Ningxia City, the actions of the imperial court are really slow, except for the official army of Guyuan Town, the officers and troops of other military towns are still in the process of assembling. In particular, it is estimated that it will take three months for the officers and troops in Gansu Town to complete the assembly. In other words, the Ming military officers and soldiers from Gansu Town did not need to be guarded at all for the time being.
Since there was no combat mission, the Eagle Cavalry Army commanded by Zhang Yi was transferred out by Xu Xingxia, joined the ranks of stragglers, and was directly transferred to the Baihuze battlefield. The three armies of the Eagle Cavalry, the Eagle Cavalry, and the Vulture Cavalry combined, there were almost 3,000 people. They are all stragglers, and what they are best at is harassment, assassination, and the like. It is estimated that the Mongolian cavalry that came to help, under their attack, wanted to advance quickly, which was absolutely impossible.
In addition to the vulture cavalry led by Zhang Yi to the north to support, the tiger and leopard cavalry led by Gao Meng also went north to support. Xu Xingxia believed that only 5,000 white-clothed troops were needed to garrison the southern front. With the arrival of more reinforcements, the attack of the White Army on the Mongols naturally continued wave after wave. The offensive of the white-clothed army became more and more fierce, and the casualties of the Mongols were naturally getting bigger and bigger. It's no wonder that Lin Dan Khan is irritable, now he is already sitting in the crater. If they don't retreat immediately, the white-clothed army will eat all the Mongols if the volcano erupts.
...... "Whoa! ”
With bursts of splashes, Xu Xingxia came out of the lake comfortably.
In the morning, the sun shines on the surface of the lake, leaving a beautiful halo on the lake. As the blue waves rippled, layers of ripples spread out, and these beautiful halos continued to break and recombine. The sun, as if hidden underneath the lake, lures you to go underwater to catch the moon. However, when you dive deeper, you regret to find that all you can touch is the shadow of the sun.
With the development of the war, a large amount of blood flowed into Baihuze, dyeing most of the lake into a dark red. However, there are still some areas that have not yet been polluted in some remote corner forks. The lake water here is still so clear, the air here is still so fresh, and the aquatic plants here are still so clean. Gradually, these river forks became a good place for Xu Xingxia and others to relax. It feels really nice to wake up in the morning and take a dip in the warm water of the lake. Energetic and full of vitality!
At the lake, there were only a few scattered chaser guards, responsible for protecting Xu Xingxia's safety. Everyone else went to the front. As long as they were able to take up arms, they all rushed to the front to bully the Mongols. The current Mongols are the water dogs, and it is time to beat them. Well, it should be said that there are two more people who will not go directly to the battlefield. One is the veteran general Lin Shenhe, and the other is the civilian official Zhang Tianhao, both of whom are watching the excitement from the rear.
Xu Xingxia got up from the water, casually draped a towel, and returned to his camp. As a result, he saw from afar that Lin Shenhe and Zhang Tianhao were standing outside his tent, talking with each other. Zhang Tianhao was still walking around boringly, trampling the grass around the tent back and forth. This kid doesn't like to swim, and he doesn't like to fight and kill, on the prairie, it's really not interesting, and it's very boring.
"Your Excellency, you're back!" Lin Shenhe said respectfully.
"Old Lin, what do you have any advice?" Xu Xingxia said humbly. He looked at Lin Shenhe's face and knew that the other party had something to say to him. Xu Xingxia also knows that his military command art is actually at the level of a half-asser, and his basic skills are not solid. Compared with a veteran like Lin Shenhe, it is too far behind. As long as there is an opportunity to learn, he will not miss it.
Zhang Tianhao interjected and said: "Actually, there is nothing to do, that is, we just argued, after defeating Lin Dan Khan, where are we going to start." ”
Xu Xingxia nodded and said with a smile: "Come in!" Sit back and talk about it! ”
The three of them entered Xu Xingxia's camp. Xu Xingxia walked to the corner, tore off the towel, changed into clean clothes, and sat down very casually. Lin Shenhe and Zhang Tianhao also found their own places to sit down. He had tea in his tent, and whoever wanted to drink it poured it himself. The warriors of the Chasseurs don't care about that. Lin Shenhe and Zhang Tianhao are also acquaintances, they are very familiar with everything in the camp, and they will do it themselves if they need it, so Xu Xingxia is too lazy to be polite.
Lin Shenhe said straight to the point: "The southern line, in the direction of Ningxia City, is it really safe?" ”
Xu Xingxia said casually: "General Lin might as well say it directly, there is no need to go around." The direction of Ningxia City is still very safe. We have 5,000 troops deployed there, which is enough to block the attack of 50,000 officers and troops. The reaction speed of the officers and soldiers is too slow, and the assembly has not yet been completed! It's not too late for them to come to Ningxia Town! Say it! ”
Lin Shenhe said slowly: "Li Maohui and Li Guozhen went to Gansu Town. ”
Xu Xingxia didn't expect that Lin Shenhe's topic was actually this. Before, Lin Shenhe had never mentioned Li Maohui and Li Guozhen. I don't know what it means to suddenly mention it today? He said quietly, "Yes." ”
Lin Shenhe said in a deep tone: "Li Guozhen is a member of the Sight Society. ”
Xu Xingxia's eyebrows raised slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "I also know this." ”
Lin Shenhe took a deep breath and finally said the last words: "The Mujian Society also has some forces in Gansu Town. Li Guozhen fled to Gansu Town, and it is estimated that he joined forces with the Eyesee Society. This time, it is estimated that they are going to start an incident in Gansu Town. ”
Xu Xingxia said meaningfully: "General Lin, what do you know?" ”
