The Eight White Rooms, also known as the Eight White Houses, are the tombs of Genghis Khan and his four wives.

There were originally two places in the Eight White Rooms, one in Hara and Lin in Mobei, and one in the south of Muna Mountain (near Baotou).

The altar in Mobei was moved to Yanjing (Beijing) by Kublai Khan, so that the capital could be legally moved, and Yanjing was changed to "Dadu". The altar in Baotou was driven away by Zhu Yuanzhang and brought back to Hetao by the Ordos Department.

What is the Ordos Ministry?

Ordo, that is, the meaning of the palace tent.

Ordos is the army guarding Genghis Khan's palace tent, and it has evolved into Genghis Khan's mausoleum guard!

It is composed of members of the Golden Family, descendants of Genghis Khan's personal guards, and descendants of Genghis Khan's nine favorite generals. They guarded the tomb of Genghis Khan for generations, and the population became more and more numerous, and they had their own pastures and troops, so they developed into the Ordos Department.

The Hetao is the place of Genghis Khan's retirement, and his sacrificial clothes and mounds must be moved back!

Naiban Chagan Ordos, is now the only eight white rooms, later referred to as "Chengling".

There are eight white palace tents here, which enshrine the spiritual seats of Genghis Khan and his wives, enshrine Genghis Khan's two scimitars, bows and arrows, horse harnesses, sacred horses, treasures, and also enshrine a holy milk bucket used to worship the heavens.

Mongolian nobles from all over the steppe will take time to come here to worship.

Including the Great Khan of Mongolia, he also had to come to Ordos to worship the Eight White Chambers in order to have the most convincing legitimacy of his rule.

During the worship, you should not bring too many troops, and you should not attack the worshippers. For example, the grandson of Dayan Khan, who was released back to the grassland by Zhu Houzhao, also came to Ordos to worship after inheriting the throne of Khan, and his third uncle, who established himself as Khan, did not dare to take the opportunity to attack and kill. The scene at that time was very weird, a pseudo-Great Khan who supported the army and stood on his own, with a real Great Khan who succeeded to the throne, and worshiped Genghis Khan together in a harmonious atmosphere.

Next to the Eight White Chambers, there are also altars made of stones, where the Mongolian gods and goddesses are located. There are gods, road gods, and mountain gods...... Many gods, who were united with Genghis Khan, blessed the Mongols for generations.

"Boom!"

After bowing, I stood in front of the Eight White Chambers, drew my scimitar and shouted: "Genghis Khan bless!" Genghis Khan bless! ”

"Genghis Khan bless!"

"Genghis Khan bless!"

"Genghis Khan bless!"

Tens of thousands of soldiers and horses and Ordos troops surrounded the Eight White Rooms, shouting with me like crazy.

These Mongols were terrifying, and all of them were fanatics of the faith.

At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, Ordos was still scattered because the composition of the personnel was too complicated. But the Ming army chased Genghis Khan's holy relics all the way, forcing these spiritual guards to hug tightly, and thousands of people fought in the north and south, just to protect the Eight White Rooms.

In more than 100 years, they completed the great migration of 10,000 miles, and the route was as follows: Hara Helin - Orkhon Grassland - Hangai Mountain - Altai Mountains - Ili - Hami - Alxa Grassland - Hetao.

Almost all the northern steppes have been run, and countless enemies have been encountered along the way, some victorious, some defeated, some merged, and some separated. In the process, they became close and far more united than other tribes.

When the White Room moved back to the Hetao and returned to Genghis Khan's designated resting place, the news soon spread to all the Mongol tribes.

Those who were scattered in various places left their current tribes and came from far and wide to join the Ordos Ministry. As long as the signboard of the guardian is played, no one dares to detain it, no one dares to stop it, and finally the current Ordos Department will be formed!

Their invasion of the Ming frontier may only be counted as the combat strength of ordinary Mongolian cavalry.

But this time the Ming army came to take away the Hetao and the resting place of Genghis Khan, and all these people were blown up, and their morale rose to 1000% at once.

Zhou Shangwen planned to surprise attack the Wura Sea Department, and directly mobilized the clan. Even if there were not enough horses, many teenagers and old people took up arms one after another and came all the way to the battle on foot.

Elite cavalry, a full 30,000!

There were also 30,000 cavalrymen, consisting of boys under the age of fourteen and old men over the age of fifty.

They are Ordos, the guardians of Genghis Khan.

I stepped on my horse, and 60,000 cavalry roared eastward, going to meet Wang Yuan's main force.

Wang Yuan commanded 50,000 regular soldiers and 60,000 auxiliary soldiers to the northwest along the Guye River. Halfway through, we traced the tributaries and walked straight to Genghis Khan's Eight White Rooms.

The Hachi-white room is a white tent that can be pulled away by a horse-drawn cart.

At the same time that I gave the order to send troops, I also asked my subordinates to relocate with the Eight White Chambers, and all of them crossed the Yellow River to hide in the territory of the Tumut Department. If he wins, the people and the Eight White Chambers can come back; If he loses, he can also take the rest of his army and join his troops.

"Vice Khan, Vice Khan!"

A messenger rushed madly to catch up with Alta, who had just set off.

I replied, "What about the old man?" After urging for several days, why didn't you bring troops to converge? ”

The messenger approached with a horse and whispered: "The old generals are all killed in battle, and the city of Bansheng has been captured by the Ming army." The Tumut troops withdrew to the city of Toto, and they had only a few thousand cavalry left, and they had to guard against the Ming army attacking from the east, and they could not rush to support us. ”

"This idiot!" I replied with a fuss.

As early as two days ago, I received a distress message from the Tumut Ministry, but the person who reported the message was confused, and it was not clear how many people had attacked the Tumut Ministry.

Under normal circumstances, the Tumut Department could gather 20,000 cavalry, how could it be defeated by the Ming army's partial division?

But who would have expected that Yuan Da's advance speed was too fast, and one person and two horses would go straight to Tumut's nest, and the distance of three hundred miles would be in an instant.

The tribes scattered in the various grasslands had no time to react. Yuan Dadu rushed to the Tumochuan River, and the old generals only gathered more than 8,000 troops, and they were lured to the mountains and killed.

Of the more than 8,000 cavalry, more than 2,000 fled to Yongshebu's division, and 3,000 or 4,000 scattered in the wilderness, probably returning to their respective pastures.

The composition of the Tumut Ministry is also extremely complex, and it is far less united than the Ordos Ministry. As soon as the old generals of 10,000 households died, and they suffered defeats one after another, many small tribes were reluctant to send troops, and some of those who had already sent troops also returned the same way, resulting in only a few thousand cavalry gathered in the city now.

I sent someone to give an order: "Let the people escort the Eight White Chambers, cross the Yellow River to the city of Toto, and join the Tumut tribe." Thousands of remnants of the Tumut Division, don't go out to attack, defend the city and wait for my orders! ”

Proper City, is the Ming army built the east victory left acropolis.

Although it is an earthen city, it is wide and tall, and there are moats and urn cities, so you don't want to lay it without siege equipment.

"Vice Khan!" And another messenger came.

I replied, "Yes." ”

The messenger said: "The cavalry of the Ming army was found in the northeast, and the number was about three thousand. ”

This is going to the old and weak troops in Ordos, maybe they want to go around the back and stab the chrysanthemums, and take the opportunity to intercept and kill the mausoleum guards in the Eight White Rooms.

I replied and thought for a while: "Divide 5,000 cavalry to go back and escort the troops and the Eight White Chambers across the river." ”

I replied to the leaders of the various tribes and said, "Last time I suffered a defeat in Datong, my brother also died in battle. I reflected on that defeat, and the reason for the failure was that the firearms of the Ming army were powerful, and the Ming army's chariot formation blocked the cavalry charge. If you want to win this time, you must take it by surprise, and the cavalry will charge as fast as possible, and before the Ming army can form a chariot formation, regardless of casualties, they will disrupt their formation. Don't be afraid of firearms, more than 50,000 cavalry, rushing together from all sides, how many can those firearms kill? ”

"For Genghis Khan, for the sake of the Eight White Chambers, we are not afraid of death!"

"Yes, our ancestors, who traveled thousands of miles with the Eight White Chambers, finally returned to the resting place of Genghis Khan. Even if he dies in battle, he will not let the Han people take it away! ”

"Deputy Khan, please let my troops take the lead!"

"Even if half of the young men of our department die, they will crush the Ming army's formation!"

“……”

I am very pleased, the soldiers use their lives, tens of thousands of cavalry charge, how can the firearms of the Ming army be stopped?
