1043 Conceited
The next morning, a low roar sounded in front of the valley of the setting sun, and the whole earth trembled, and the cavalry of the Timurid Empire finally came after the dust.
Due to the hot weather, Wendu ordered the cavalry to march at night and find a place to rest during the day, and after a rapid march all the way, both the cavalry and the horses were already very tired.
"Look, General, the road into the valley has been trampled by a large number of horses' hooves, and it seems that they have indeed run from here." The cavalry stopped at the mouth of the valley of the sunset valley, and Wen Du came to the mouth of the valley surrounded by the generals, and one of the generals glanced at the messy horseshoe prints in the valley mouth and bowed to Wen Du in a deep voice.
Of course, Wendu was not chasing Li Yuntian without a clue, and the horseshoe prints left by the 10,000 Xiaowu army Guanxi cavalry were the best way to guide the way.
"Give the order to go down, and rest after the whole army passes through this valley." Wen Du took the water bladder from the guards on the side, drank a few sips of water, and then gave an order in a deep voice.
As long as Li Yuntian bites Li Yuntian, Wen is confident that he will catch up, after all, this is still hundreds of miles away from Guanxi, and it is the territory of the Northern Yuan army, and Li Yuntian and his party, who have broken away from the large army, will inevitably be blocked by the Northern Yuan army along the way, which provides him with valuable time.
"General, this mountain pass is steep, should we send someone to investigate first?" At this time, one of the generals glanced at the silent valley and said to Wendu that this valley was a good place for ambushes.
"Why are you getting less and less courageous, the Ming army is now on the run, where do you still have the courage to fight our ambush?" As soon as the general's words fell, a general beside him said disapprovingly, thinking that he was worrying about the sky, how could Li Yuntian be their opponent with only 10,000 horses in his hands, and if he was ambushed, he would definitely suffer a catastrophe.
"Time is running out, there is no time to explore the valley now, order the whole army to quickly pass through the valley, and then rest in place." Wen Du's brow furrowed, and then he gave the order in a deep voice.
Of course, he knew that the terrain of Sunset Valley was the most suitable for ambushes, but he didn't think that Li Yuntian had the courage to ambush him, and he didn't have time to explore, it would take at least half a day for such a large valley to be fully explored, enough for Li Yuntian to run further.
With this order of Wendu, the cavalry of the Timurid Empire rushed into the valley and marched through the valley.
Wen Du frowned and rode on his horse, what he was most worried about now was that Li Yuntian had left the cavalry unit of the Guanxi battalion of the Xiaowu Army, so it would be difficult to find him, after all, this was the place of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate, and with the help of the officials of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate, Li Yuntian could get the help of local forces.
Obviously, no local forces have enough to offend the Ming Dynasty, you must know that the Ming Dynasty is much closer to them than the Timurid Empire, and it is easy to send troops to destroy them.
Besides, nine times out of ten, the Great Khan of Monte was with Li Yuntian, and those local forces were not so stupid as to offend even the Great Khan, otherwise they would inevitably be retaliated against by the army of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate, which finally became the Great Khan, and would also be despised by other local forces.
Therefore, Wen needed to catch up with the cavalry of the Xiaowu Army's Guanxi Qinglong Battalion as soon as possible, only in this way would he have a greater chance of catching Li Yuntian.
At the same time, under a protruding rock in Sunset Valley, Li Yuntian leaned on the stone wall and closed his eyes to rest.
"Lord Wang, the enemy army has begun to enter the valley." A guard hurried over and whispered.
"Do what you planned." Li Yuntian had already heard the dull sound of horses' hooves galloping from the Timurid Imperial cavalry, and knew that Wen Du had arrived with his army, so he quietly ordered that he had already set up the stage, and the rest depended on how Li Zixi and them sang.
Hearing this, the guard bowed to Li Yuntian and walked quickly to convey Li Yuntian's order, only waiting for the cavalry of the Timurid Empire to enter the encirclement and launch an attack.
Nuo Min, who was pacing back and forth on the side, saw Li Yuntian there with his eyes closed and recuperated, and then left lightly after his eyes rolled around, wanting to go into battle to kill the enemy and participate in the ambush battle in Sunset Valley.
"Minmin, my shoulders are a little numb, come and rub them for me." Before Nu Min could take a few steps, Li Yuntian's voice came from behind her.
"Xianggong, you let me go and see if it's okay, I finally encountered such a big battle, I can't shrink back like a turtle, and when the time comes, where will my face go." Hearing this, a depressed look suddenly flashed on her face, and then she turned around and walked quickly to Li Yuntian's side, and complained while massaging his shoulder, she knew that Li Yuntian kept her by her side for her good, but she didn't want to miss this big battle carefully planned by Li Yuntian just like that.
"A few of you follow the county lord and make sure she's safe." Li Yuntian heard this, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he opened his eyes and said to the several guards guarding the side, he knew that if he didn't let Nuo Min give up her wish, I was afraid she would be unhappy for a long time.
"Remember, if there is danger, escort the county lord back immediately." As he spoke, Li Yuntian turned around, "If she refuses to come back, this king orders you to tie her back." ”
"Obedience!" Several guards couldn't help but look at each other when they heard this, how could they dare to tie up the side concubine of the Zhongwu Palace, but since Li Yuntian issued an order, they couldn't disobey it, so they could only bow down and agree.
"I knew that Xianggong was the best." Nuo Min was overjoyed when he heard this, and couldn't help but step forward and kiss Li Yuntian on the cheek, and then left in a hurry, and the guards hurriedly chased after him.
Li Yuntian looked at Nuo Min's bouncing back and shook his head helplessly, maybe he used to spoil Nuo Min too much, so that Nuo Min still looks like a girl who doesn't grow up now.
Although the situation in the Battle of Sunset Valley was grim, Li Yuntian was not worried about Nuo Min's safety, and it was obvious that the military attachés on the battlefield, large and small, would not let Nuo Min be in danger.
Since the rebellion of the Han King, Li Yuntian has experienced too many life and death, joys and sorrows on the battlefield for more than ten years, and the only thing that worries him now is how many of the soldiers who participated in the ambush will survive, and he once promised that the soldiers will do their best to take them home.
In the valley, the cavalry of the Timurid Empire marched with a relaxed expression, everyone knew that they were now pursuing the Zhongwu King of the Ming Dynasty, the most capable nobles of the Ming Dynasty, as long as Li Yuntian was captured or killed, then the Ming Dynasty would be unable to resist the soldiers of the Timurid Empire's army, and the territory of the Ming Dynasty was at your fingertips.
Under the deliberate propaganda of the top level of the Timurid Empire, the Ming Dynasty was full of flowers, richer than all the countries conquered by the Timurid Empire, so the soldiers of the Timurid Empire had long been unable to hold back, and they couldn't wait to attack the Ming Dynasty to kill and loot, rob the most valuable treasures, and ask for the most beautiful women.
Just when Wen Du wondered if Li Yuntian would abandon those cavalry and lead a small force to escape, the marching team in front suddenly stopped, which made him feel slightly stunned, not knowing what was going on.
"General, there is a sign on the road ahead, and some indecent words are written on it." A moment later, a general galloped from the front on horseback and said to Wen Du in a deep voice, "It should be the Ming army who fled to do it." ”
"What text?" Wen Du's brows furrowed when he heard this, and he asked.
"It says, 'One step ahead, no return.'" The general hesitated, but said it anyway.
It is worth mentioning that the characters on the wooden tablets were written in the script of the Chagatai Khanate, so those who knew the characters in the cavalry at the front could easily understand the contents of it.
"The trapped beast is still fighting!" Knowing that the Ming army had engaged in such a small trick that could not be put on the stage, the corners of Wen Du's mouth showed a sneer of disdain, and he instructed the general, "Ignore it, the Ming army wants to hinder the progress of our army, smash the sign and continue to advance." ”
"Yes!" The general bowed down when he heard this, and hurried back to the front on his horse to make arrangements.
"General, it seems that the Ming army is scared of courage, and it is ridiculous to use this way to stop us, do they think that we are three-year-old children who can be scared away by him?" At this time, a bearded general gathered around Wen Du couldn't help but speak, his words full of contempt for Li Yuntian and the others.
Hearing this, ......the surrounding generals burst out laughing, dismissing the warning on the wooden sign.
"General, I heard that the famous dancing Ji Narsa in Beshi Bali City is also in the team of escapees, and she doesn't want anything from her humble position, so I hope you can reward her with her humble position at that time." After laughing for a while, the bearded general smiled and said to Wendu that he had heard of Narsa's name since he entered the Eastern Chagatai Khanate, so he wanted to kiss Fangze.
"Narsa is the first beauty in East Chagatai, you kid doesn't pee and take pictures, you still want Narsa just like you, of course Narsa is a general." Then, another general looked at Wendu with a smile.
"It's none other than the General." The rest of the generals heard the words and spoke one after another, and beauties of Narsa's level were naturally only qualified for Wendu.
"Ladies and gentlemen, Narsa is not only the first beauty in East Chagatai, but also the concubine of King Zhongwu of the Ming Dynasty, part of the reason why King Zhongwu of the Ming Dynasty came to Bali City this time is for her, before that, we still have to find a way to find the King of Zhongwu first, otherwise Narsa is a rose with thorns, and she will prick her fingers if you are not careful."
Just as the generals were laughing, an untimely voice suddenly sounded, sounding a little harsh.
Since the Timurid Empire sent troops to the Eastern Chagatai Khanate, the defeat of the Wuman in Beshbali City was the first real defeat of the Timurid Empire, which made the generals of the Timurid Empire sneer at him, thinking that it was his incompetence that led to the defeat of the war, so that Li Yuntian and Monte Khan slipped away.
Because of the defeat in the battle, the barbarians were speechless to those ridicules, and now seeing that those generals despised Li Yuntian so much, he couldn't help but warn them, he had fought with the cavalry of the Guanxi battalion brought by Li Yuntian, and his combat effectiveness exceeded that of the Ming army he had encountered before.
"Wuman, are you kid stupid, you actually spoke to the Ming army who fled in the wilderness, it seems that you are no longer worthy of being a general of the empire, it is better to go home and pick up the child."
Grandma's bearded general heard this, and mocked in a weird manner, the relationship between him and the barbarians was not good, and when he attacked the Ottoman Empire a few years ago, he almost fought because of the competition for a woman, so he naturally wanted to ridicule the barbarians at this time.
"Haha......" A burst of laughter erupted all around.
Rumble!
Wu Man was furious when he heard this, he was not a good-tempered person, and when he was about to draw his sword to find the bearded general's theory, he only heard a bang, and a dull sound suddenly came from the front, which immediately attracted the attention of the people on the scene.
