【Chapter 415】I'm in a hurry, my scalp is scratched

(0415) Three days passed, and the advance of the Mongol cavalry did not decrease in the slightest. At this time, they had already crossed the Wuliangsu Sea and approached the mouth of the Sancha River. This Sancha estuary is actually the sequelae of the diversion of the Yellow River, and it is surrounded by turbid backwater pools. Because there are too many plants that stink in the sewage for a long time, the sewage here is basically poisonous. If the war horse accidentally drinks it, there will be a big problem. Even the birds passing by, if they drink the water here, will fall headlong in the water, and it will be over.

Of course, none of this matters. The people on the prairie know the danger of the Sancha estuary, and they will never take it lightly. Wang Xia also knew. The toxic sewage at the mouth of the Sancha River, he didn't care about it at all. What he was concerned about was that it was very close to the Bayannur grassland. To be precise, it is less than 800 miles away from the Phoenix Sea. Under normal circumstances, a large cavalry force would arrive in five or six days.

"Paralyzed Lin Dan Khan! You've got a kind! "Wang Xia is really anxious this time. In desperation, he put his hands on his scalp, as if he wanted to pull out his hair. He clutched his scalp hard, hoping to make himself a little smarter. But, unfortunately, even if he scratched his scalp with blood, he still couldn't think of a good way. Born as a ranger, he was not very smart in the first place.

However, Wang Xia was very clear about the consequences of not being able to stop Lin Dan Khan. If the Mongols were allowed to run to the Phoenix Sea so quickly, the future strategy of the White Army would be very passive. Controlling the Bayannur grassland was an important step in Xu Xingxia's external expansion. It is said that a gentleman takes revenge, and ten years is not too late. But this is absolutely impossible. If the Tuyuhun people are killed, it is estimated that no other ethnic minority will believe in the white-clothed army in the future.

And history proves that without the assistance of ethnic minorities, it is almost impossible for the Han people to control the steppe. The strong dragon can't suppress the head snake! In Xu Xingxia's words, it is very necessary to have a part of the "leading party". The cunning rabbit is dead, the lackeys are cooking, and when there is no use value, the leading party can be abandoned at any time. The problem is that the current Tuyuhun people have not yet played the role of leading the party, and they cannot be easily abandoned.

So far, all the methods that Wang Xia can think of have been used. The effect is not very good. Even, it is very bad. True, the Mongol cavalry did kill a number of people, and perhaps some of them were also disturbed by the attack at night and could not sleep. However, such a small number of casualties is completely within their tolerance. Their population base is indeed too large. That's 30,000 people! The loss of a few hundred people is nothing at all.

It is estimated that the Mongols were well aware that the attack they were subjected to on the way was temporary. As long as they rush to the Bayannur grassland, everything will be rewarded. If Lin Dan Khan's subordinates can figure this out, it is indeed terrifying. What's even more terrifying is that they are so patient, and after they arrive in the Bayannur grassland, all their patience is vented, and it is really dark.

"Paralyzed!"

Wang Xia couldn't help but cry out angrily.

In his mind, there was already an increasingly strong idea that he was ready to fight hard with Lin Dan Khan. But the problem is that he has too few troops in his hands, even if he goes up and fights hard, it's useless! Even if one person can kill five Mongolian cavalry, then he can only kill more than five hundred Mongolian cavalry, which is a drop in the bucket!

What to do?

What to do?

Wang Xia racked his brains and thought hard.

...... "These Han dogs, donkey skills are exhausted." Lin Dan said coldly. He actually speaks Chinese very well, otherwise, he would not know how to use the idiom of poor donkey skills. Ever since the Mongols were expelled from the Central Plains, they have always been obsessed with the Chinese language. The upper class of the Mongol aristocracy usually worked hard to learn Chinese. They also have dedicated Chinese teachers. It seems that Lin Dan Khan's father also collected a lot of Confucian classics to fill the façade. Perhaps, in their subconscious, they are still trying to re-enter the Central Plains.

"Golden Khan, our warriors can't help it anymore......" Gui Yingcha said in a low voice. As Lin Dan Khan's brother-in-law, the most loyal subordinate, and one of the top ten sumu, every time Lin Dan Khan goes on an expedition, Gui Yingcha is indispensable. This time was no exception. It is also a coincidence that the attack of the Eagle Cavalry and the Eagle Cavalry happened to hit Gui Yingcha's troops.

Those Mongol cavalrymen wearing black armor who suddenly came out and tried to drive out the white-clothed army were Gui Yingcha's men. These black-clothed cavalry were formed after Lin Dan Khan suffered a big loss in Zhenyuan Pass last time and returned to Naturalization City. Its purpose was to deal with the attacks of the cavalry of the White Army. In order to be as responsive as possible and to enhance the sprint speed as much as possible, they don't even have decent armor, everything is mainly light.

At the beginning, Lin Dan Khan and Gui Yingcha both felt that the black-clothed cavalry should be able to play a certain role and save a little face for the Mongolian cavalry. If the whites attack again, they can fight back. The war horses of the black-clothed cavalry are also specially selected, and they are all military horses with fast short-distance sprints. At the same time, these military horses are not afraid of gunfire. Someone once praised that the black-clothed cavalry was a combination of men and horses, and its speed was comparable to that of an arrow shot out.

However, judging from the fighting situation in the past few days, the results of the black-coated cavalry obviously made them not very satisfied. They attacked several times, but not once did they catch the whites. On the contrary, they themselves were killed. However, they also have no way. It's not that the black-clothed cavalry they formed is incompetent, it's that the white-clothed army is too cunning. No matter how fast they are, they can't be faster than bullets! Besides, the cavalry of the white-clothed army is also a slippery head, and they are very skilled in long-distance attacks, and they don't give them a chance to fight back and capture at all.

After several days in a row, the Mongols were also a little out of breath. After all, the feeling of being attacked and not being able to fight back is indeed too aggrieved. Before, they had always treated their enemies like this, and they had never been treated like this. This is even more important for the heirs of the Golden Family. Those who know the details understand that you are patient, but those who don't know the details think that you are afraid of the Han people and dare not fight back!

"You have to endure it. As long as we reach the Bayannur grassland, we will be able to fight freely. Lin Dan Khan said calmly. To be able to become the Great Khan of the Tumut tribe, Lin Dan Khan is definitely not the kind of guy who does nothing. The previous Tumut tribes were not monolithic, and they were only united after he succeeded to the throne. His means, his insight, and his wisdom are absolutely second to none among the Mongols.

This time, Lin Dan Khan definitely caught the weakness of the white-clothed army. This weakness is the Bayannur grassland. The number of white-clothed troops operating in the Bayannur grassland was only a few three or four thousand. This is what Lin Dan Khan has repeatedly verified. As for the other three or four thousand Tuyuhun cavalry, Lin Dan Khan didn't pay attention to it at all. The cavalry of the Tuyuhun people...... Is it also considered cavalry? A Mongolian thousand-man team is enough to contain them.

At the same time, Lin Danhan also knew that Xu Xingxia had conquered Ningxia City and stabbed the world's hornet's nest. Based on his understanding of the Ming court, if such a big incident occurred in Ningxia City, the imperial court would definitely send a large army to quell the rebellion. For Xu Xingxia, guarding the surrounding areas of Ningxia City is more important than guarding the Bayannur grassland. Therefore, it is impossible for Xu Xingxia and his main force to come with too many reinforcements. Unless he doesn't want Ningxia City.

Of course, for the Ming army to quell the rebellion, Lin Dan Khan did not give too high hopes. With his understanding of the combat effectiveness of the Ming army, most of the Ming army, in his eyes, is estimated to be not even garbage. Seriously, if it is just to contain and obstruct, 10,000 Mongolian cavalry can contain and obstruct the movement of 100,000 Ming troops. Simply expecting them to quell the rebellion in Ningxia City, Lin Dan Khan felt that it was not realistic at all. If Xu Xingxia was such an easy person to deal with, he would not have made such a big disturbance in the Bayannur grassland.

The thought of Tesna made Lin Dan Khan's heart ache. Many years ago, Lin Dan Khan regarded Tesna as his own forbidden belly, and had been planning how to get her hands on her. As a result, he didn't expect that Xu Xingxia snatched Tesna away and took it for himself right under his nose, which was a great blow to his dignity and prestige. This time, he must Xu Xingxia even pay back the interest.

He had to sweep the Bayannur grassland before Xu Xingxia could react. The so-called sweeping is to clean up all the things that look unpleasant. It doesn't matter if it's alive or not. After cleaning up the Bayannur grassland, he had to continue to go south and eliminate Xu Xingxia's lair.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

Suddenly, there was another gunshot.

This time, the gunfire was very dense and very rapid.

After the gunshots rang out, there seemed to be a brief sharp clash of weapons.

Na Yuesong, a wise man who had not spoken, suddenly opened his eyes and said slowly: "They are in a hurry." We, the Great Khan, are victorious. ”

Lin Danhan nodded, smiled proudly, and said indifferently: "That's right, they are in a hurry and want to fight with us." ”

Full of confidence, he put on a confident posture and strategized, walked to the front slowly, and observed the movement of the battlefield with cold eyes. Sure enough, around the Mongolian cavalry, the movements of the white-clothed cavalry were very active. They kept firing from long distances, trying to inflict more casualties on the Mongol cavalry.

The white smoke produced by the musket fire, one after the other, rose in close proximity to each other. After the white smoke was blown away by the wind, it was connected to each other, as if it was a layer of white mist, enveloping the battlefield, and people's vision suddenly became hazy.
