Because Wang Yuan had taken away the cavalry of all units and gathered them into a team of 5,000 light cavalry, only the border generals and a few personal soldiers were left to ride horses.

At this time, the quality of the generals was reflected, seeing that the Mongol Tatar army had withdrawn, and countless routs rushed out of the mountains, most of the border generals threw down their soldiers to "rescue" them. First, it is meritorious to save the driver, and second, it can rob people's heads, how can you still be willing to move forward slowly with the footmen?

Even Zhang Hui, a veteran who has always been steady, couldn't suppress his desire to make meritorious service at the moment, and rode a horse with a whip and galloped, his gray beard swaying in the wind.

Wang Xun, the chief soldier of Datong, and Zhu Zhen, the chief soldier of Xuanfu, these two did not dare to throw down the troops.

Their subordinates have merit in killing the enemy, and they also have merit in winning this battle. But if the Tartars come back and defeat most of the Ming army, they will be the number one target to be held accountable.

When Wang Xun and Zhu Zhen gathered up their troops and marched in an orderly manner, they were very surprised to find that the sharpshooter battalion and artillery team were always in a neat formation, and not a single officer or soldier rushed out of the formation.

The sharpshooter battalion is the 6,000 soldiers trained by Wang Yuan himself, and 1,000 of them have already been replaced with fresh blood.

Wang Xun hugged his fists towards Pan Gui and said: "Commander Pan is not chaotic in battle, victorious and not arrogant, he really has the style of a general!" ”

Pan Gui said with a smile: "It's all practiced by Wang Xianggong's spanking, punishment for running, and food deduction." ”

"Hahahaha!"

Wang Xun and Zhu Zhen immediately laughed.

Zhu Zhen said: "Governor Wang is not only brave, but it seems that the means of training troops and selecting generals are also very clever. ”

Pan Gui used to be just a military gangster, and he met Wang Yuan to train soldiers when he first entered the barracks. This goods has been beaten a lot, and often the whole team is not allowed to eat, and it has become calm after coming and going.

And because when he was fighting against the anti-thief Qi Yanming, Pan Gui didn't kill an enemy, and only defended at a critical moment, so he was recommended by Wang Yuan to be promoted quickly. Since then, he has led the troops to discipline first, which can be said to have tasted the sweetness, and it can also be said that he was successfully trained by Wang Yuan.

The border generals, personal soldiers and a small number of sentry cavalry who rushed to the front added up to less than two hundred. They came head-on with the Mongol rout, who fled from the valley one after another, and at least two or three thousand of them came into the wilderness at this moment.

Two or three thousand Mongol troops were routed, some on horseback and some running wildly.

Although they were ten times the number of the Ming army in front of them, they did not dare to fight at all, and immediately scattered in all directions without any rules.

And those Ming border generals, all of them turned into brave men, and directly killed the enemy ten times their size. The Mongol rout, which had no horses, was the first to suffer, and was chased up and hacked to death by the Ming army, and then cut off their heads and continued to pursue.

Zhu Houzhao was blocked at the mouth of the valley, because he had already left the valley, and he was no longer afraid of being trampled to death by his own people. So those Ming light cavalry, one by one, made the old mistake, and immediately cut off the head after hacking the enemy to death, but blocked the friendly troops behind them layer by layer.

"Don't dismount," Zhu Houzhao shouted angrily, "This battle is only about the merits of the war, regardless of the first merit (according to the head of the merit), the general will be on the horse to kill the enemy!" ”

If it were another general, the soldiers would not listen at all.

But Zhu Houzhao is the emperor after all, and the emperor said that no matter the first merit, there is a fart for cutting off people's heads. Under Zhu Houzhao's repeated urging, the cavalry mounted one after another, and each looked at the enemy to chase and kill.

Zhu Houzhao naturally pursued with a knife, surrounded by more than a dozen leopard cavalry.

The emperor's mount was not lost to Wang Yuan, and he ran faster and faster under the acceleration, leaving only a few leopard cavalry to follow. He slashed a fallen enemy with a knife and shouted excitedly, "General Ben has killed two of them!" ”

There was another wild chase, and there were only two followers left, and Zhu Houzhao found a fallen horse again.

The man had a tender face, a young man's appearance, and his legs were crushed by a fallen horse. When he saw Zhu Houzhao wielding his knife, he hurriedly shouted in Mongolian: "Don't kill me, I'm Buchi, the grandson of the Great Khan!" ”

The two leopard cavalrymen who followed Zhu Houzhao, one of whom happened to be a Mongol, immediately shouted: "Your Majesty, don't kill this person!" ”

Zhu Houzhao didn't understand a little, but when he saw Bu Chi's leather robe and hat, he also knew that he was a Mongolian nobleman. He immediately reined in his horse, put a knife on Bu Chi's neck, and said arrogantly: "This general has captured a Mongolian leader alive. ”

The Mongolian attendant explained with a smile: "Your Majesty, this man is the grandson of Dayan Khan. ”

"Dayan Khan's grandson?" Zhu Houzhao did not continue to pursue the enemy, and said to the Mongol attendant, "Ask him which grandson of Dayan Khan is." ”

The Mongol attendant asked, "Which grandson of Dayan Khan are you?" ”

Bu Chi instantly blessed his soul, felt that he could save his life, and quickly said: "I am the eldest grandson of the Great Khan, my father is dead, and I should inherit the throne in the future." ”

The Mongolian attendant immediately translated, made Zhu Houzhao laugh happily to the sky, stood with his knife and said: "This general actually captured the grandson of the Mongolian Great Khan, this is really a miracle!" Quickly help him up for treatment, don't die here, this general will take him back to Beijing to dedicate to the Taimiao! ”

Zhu Houzhao rode the imperial horse and slowly returned with the captives, and found that the border generals were looking for the emperor everywhere.

"General Ben is here, don't panic." Zhu Houzhao smiled and ordered the troops to gather.

The first to run was the general Zheng Bi, who dismounted and knelt on one knee: "Long live Your Majesty, the minister Zheng Bi is late to save the car!" ”

Zhu Houzhao was in a good mood at the moment, and said approvingly: "Your name is Zheng Bi? Get up, I remember you. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Zheng Bi trembled with excitement.

Immediately afterwards, Zhu Luan, the deputy commander-in-chief of Yansui, and Zhou Zheng, the guerrilla general, both came to the emperor to meet him, and they were also praised by Zhu Houzhao.

After a while, the three eunuchs Zhang Yong, Zhang Zhong, and Wei Bin were escorted over by Zhang Hui, the deputy chief soldier of Datong.

"Emperor, I'm finally looking for you, woo woo woo!"

The three eunuchs wept and wept, kneeling in front of the emperor and refusing to get up, in order to highlight their loyalty and filial piety.

It's a pity that they are completely wrong, Mr. Zhu Shou, the chief military officer of the Governor's military affairs, is full of heroic feelings at this moment, how can he like to cry and howl as a child? He kicked Zhang Yong over and scolded: "Stand up for General Ben, this battle is a big victory, and you should celebrate." Are you mourning? ”

The three eunuchs hurriedly got up, then changed their smiling faces again, knelt down again and said: "Congratulations to the mighty general for his complete victory, and for his immortal martial arts!" ”

"Hahahaha!"

Zhu Houzhao laughed and said: "Let's all be even, everyone has a reward for this battle." ”

Jiang Bin, Xu Tai, Xiao Lu and other generals also rushed over, and they were late to call for help, and they were praised by Zhu Houzhao.

Zhu Houzhao pointed at Bu Chi and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, guess who this person is captured by General Ben himself?" ”

"The mighty general is wise and martial, and the minister does not dare to speculate." The crowd hurriedly replied.

Zhu Houzhao held his head high and uncovered the mystery: "This is the Tatar grandson Buchi." ”

The crowd was horrified and rejoiced.

Such a great achievement, even if it is not captured by them, the reward for merit must be more generous. What's more, this person was captured by the emperor himself, and looking at the emperor's appearance of dragon face and joy, he knew that he would definitely be rewarded after he returned.

Zhu Houming smiled brightly in his heart, but at this moment he showed regret: "It's a pity that only the eldest grandson of the little Mongolian prince (Dayan Khan) was captured, but the hateful little Mongolian prince was allowed to run away!" ”

Jiang Bin hurriedly said: "The mighty general doesn't have to mind, it is not easy to capture the Tatar grandson alive." Although the little Mongolian prince is a barbarian, he is also a generation of British lords of the steppe, and the Mongolians call him 'Genghis Khan' second, which is so easy to catch? His Majesty was able to defeat the little Mongolian prince in person, and his martial arts have caught up with Emperor Taizu, Taizong and Emperor Xuanzong! ”

"Long live Your Majesty, long live, long live!" Zhang Yong suddenly knelt on the ground and shouted.

Other eunuchs and border generals also followed the mountain to shout long live, anyway, they couldn't miss the opportunity to pat their ass.

Listening to the sound of long live that shook the four fields, Zhu Houzhao was suddenly complacent, and he couldn't wait to raise his horse to the sky and roar.

"Dada-da-da!"

Wang Yuan suddenly rode over, and before he could kneel down on one knee, Zhu Houzhao grabbed his hand and asked happily: "Erlang, you are finally here, guess who General Ben personally captured?" ”

Wang Yuan glanced at it and found that there were two heads hanging on the emperor's mount - one of them was cut yesterday, and Zhu Houzhao was reluctant to throw it away in the mountains.

And next to the mount, a Mongolian nobleman was on his horse.

Without waiting for Wang Yuan to reply, Bu Chi had already seen Dayan Khan's head, and immediately hissed: "Eboge! ”

Zhu Houzhao asked the Mongolian attendant beside him: "What is he shouting?" ”

The Mongolian attendant replied, "He's calling grandpa." ”

Zhu Houzhao laughed: "Don't talk about calling grandpa, he just recognizes this general as his ancestor, and he has to be captured and dedicated to the Taimiao." ”

Wang Yuan silently turned around, took off Dayan Khan's head, knelt down on one knee and said: "Your Majesty is wise and powerful, and you have commanded the battle properly, breaking the Tatar army in the deep valley and killing the little Mongolian prince Yu Chaojun. Chente has found the head of the little Mongolian prince, please verify it by your majesty! ”

"What?"

"This is the head of the little Mongolian prince?"

"Did I hear me wrong?"

“……”

Both the eunuchs and the border generals were shocked at this moment, and they all leaned over to look at Dayan Khan's head.

This is Dayan Khan, who unified Mongolia at a young age and harassed the border of the Ming Dynasty for decades! How did you just die? How could it be that he died like this!

Zhu Houzhao was also stunned on the spot, came back to his senses for a long time, and leaned forward and leaned back with a smile: "Hahahahaha......" He laughed so much that his stomach hurt, and he took the head and said, "This person was killed by Erlang, and I won't take credit from you." You and I are the monarch and minister, one person beheaded the little Mongolian prince, and the other captured the Tatar grandson, this battle is a great consummation. ”

Wang Yuan was also shocked and asked, "This person is the eldest grandson of Dayan Khan?" ”

Zhu Houzhao held his head high and said with a smile: "Exactly, and it was captured by my own hands." ”

Wang Yuan said: "Let's ask about the situation in Tatar. ”

Zhu Houzhao immediately asked the Mongolian attendants to ask, but Bu Chi didn't dare to hide it, and he said it all in a hurry.

Dayan Khan had eleven sons, but only seven sons-in-law, all of whom were divided into Mongol households.

The eldest son and the second son were twins, the eldest son had died of illness and the second son died in assassination. The third son served as the deputy khan, and had half of the Mongol army, and the rest of the sons were invincible.

After hearing this, Wang Yuan said to Zhu Houzhao: "Your Majesty, you should send someone to escort the Tatar grandson back to the grassland." ”

Zhu Houzhao was a little unhappy: "General Ben was finally arrested, how can he say that he will let it go?" ”

Wang Yuan reminded: "As long as this person is put back, Mongolia will definitely be in chaos, and the Ming border will never be worry-free." ”

Zhu Houzhao instantly realized that if Bu Chi returned to the grassland smoothly, the situation in Mongolia would be similar to that of Zhu Di and Zhu Yunwen.

The third son, Balsborot, although he had half of the Mongol army, Buchi was the most orthodox heir to the Great Khan. The rest of Dayan Khan's sons, in order to prevent being eaten by the third brother, must also support their nephew Bu Chi as the Great Khan.

Historically, Tatar has since split in two.

Balsborot established himself as Khan, it was Altan Khan's father!

Bu Chi succeeded to the throne as Bodi Khan, the ancestor of Lin Dan Khan!

Although Zhu Houzhao was a little reluctant, he could still carry out such a major matter, and immediately ordered: "After returning to the Datong Mansion, immediately escort this person back to the grassland to inherit the throne!" ”

"Your Majesty is wise!"

The crowd shouted.
