The Hetao Plain, in the royal tent of the Ordos tribe.

Qi Yan has completely lost his cool, like an ant on a hot pot, restlessly waiting for news from the front.

At this moment, Sigmu hurried into the king's tent, walked quickly to the side of Qiyan, and whispered, "Father, something is wrong! The Han army has too many troops and is attacking too fiercely, our main army has not yet returned, and there are only 5,000 warriors, who can't resist at all! I just received the news that the main army of the Han people in the middle has rushed in the direction of the king's tent, and has already attacked two hundred miles away! This distance is almost instantaneous, and we must make a decision early! ”

After hearing Qi Gemu's report, Qi Yan's face was a little pale, his expression was a little angry, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Damn! These cunning and despicable Han Chinese! These rough and despicable Dzungar wild skins! How dare they join forces to plot against me! ”

As he spoke, Qi Yan couldn't help but glare at Qi Gemu fiercely, his eyes full of anger.

Things have developed to this point, even the most stupid person can understand Zhao Junchen's general plan!

The Ordos tribe had just received 200,000 stone grain and grass when they encountered the siege and plundering of the army of the Dzungar Khanate!

Moreover, the Dzungar army was obviously prepared, as if they knew the location of the grain handover in advance!

In the end, the Ordos tribe not only lost all the grain and grass, but also killed more than 3,000 tribesmen.

The number of 200,000 stone grain and grass is too huge, and it is still the hope of the Mongolian right-wing departments for this year's winter, after discovering that this batch of grain and grass was intercepted by the Dzungar army, everyone lost their minds, and only thought about chasing down the Dzungar army and recapturing the grain and grass, so they did not notice the suspicions in it.

In the end, the Ordos tribe, as the leader of the Mongolian right wing, sent 15,000 cavalry to chase down the Dzungar army, and only 5,000 cavalry remained.

However, on the third day when the Mongol right-wing departments gathered troops to pursue and kill the remnants of Dzungaria, more than 100,000 Ming troops suddenly invaded the territory of Hetao.

In the past 100 years, it has always been the Mongolian cavalry that has taken the initiative to attack the territory of the Han people in the south, and the Ming Dynasty army has always been passive defense, and everyone has long been accustomed to this situation, so the sudden initiative of the Ming army has taken the Ordos tribe by surprise!

After the Ming army invaded the Hetao area, Qiyan immediately sent a fast horse to recall the army, but the main army of the Ordos tribe had already set off for two days at that time, and it was thousands of miles away from the king's tent, not only was it difficult to catch up with them in a short period of time to convey the order, even if the main army of the Ordos tribe received the news, it would take several days to withdraw the army and return for reinforcements!

In this way, in the face of the Ming army's unsparing attack, the Ordos tribe naturally had no power to fight back!

All this is obviously Zhao Junchen's conspiracy!

Whether it is the Mongolian right wing or the Dzungar Khanate, they all fell into Zhao Junchen's calculations and became pawns in Zhao Junchen's hands!

The source of this conspiracy started from the moment Sigmu agreed to cooperate with Zhao Junchen!

It's a pity that it's too late for all of this!

The Ordos tribe is the largest and most powerful tribe in the right wing of Mongolia, with 120,000 people.

The Ordos tribe is still mainly nomadic, and it is naturally impossible for so many people to gather in one place, and most of the time they are distributed throughout the Hetao area.

Now, with the sudden attack of the Ming army and the three-way attack, more than 200,000 people south of the Ordos tribe's royal tent have all fallen, and tens of thousands of people, a large number of materials, and countless cattle and sheep within the lost range have all fallen into the hands of the Ming army!

That is to say, even if the Ordos tribe finally reluctantly repels the attack of the Ming army, it will inevitably lose its vitality in the end, and it will never be possible to recover in a few decades, and it may turn from prosperity to decline and collapse!

Such a grim situation is all because Qi Gemu has been played by Zhao Junchen from the beginning, and Qi Yan naturally can't help but feel angry.

But Sigmu is Qiyan's favorite son after all, and Qigmu's decisions have also been recognized by Qiyan at the beginning, not to mention that now that the situation is urgent, it is not the time to blame and anger.

Therefore, after glaring at Sigmu fiercely, Qi Yan forcibly held back his anger and asked, "Make a decision early?" So far, what decision can be made? ”

"Withdraw! Let's retreat to the depths of the grassland for the time being, avoiding the edge of the Ming army! Since this period of time, Siegmu has become more and more accustomed to the means of "strategic retreat", and immediately said: "Since we can't stop the attack of the Ming army, naturally we can't stay here and fight them to the death!" It's better to withdraw from the Hetao Plain for the time being, and wait until our main army returns, and then it's not too late to counterattack and retaliate! ”

After hearing Qi Gemu's suggestion, Qi Yan was a little hesitant.

If it was a hundred years ago, Qiyan would never have had too much hesitation, the characteristics of the grassland people are that they have no fixed place, strong mobility, and they know the way for the enemy to advance and retreat, and the enemy to retreat and I to advance! When the enemy is coming, after seeing that he is invincible, he will retreat when he says to retreat!

But today, things have changed!

The Ordos tribe was the closest to the territory of the Han people, and had the most opportunities to contact with the Han people, but they were gradually assimilated by the Han people and lost their nomadic characteristics.

Over the years, the Ordos tribe has not only learned from the Han people to cultivate grain, but also many people have abandoned their tents and built houses!

For example, the royal tent of the Ordos tribe has not moved its location for more than 50 years, and the countless wealth accumulated by the Ordos tribe for more than 100 years is concentrated here! This wealth is by no means something that can be taken away in a short period of time, and once Sigmu hastily withdraws, this wealth will also fall into the hands of the Han people!

What's more, the Ordos tribe is the leader of the Mongolian right-wing alliance, and if it is beaten by the Han army, it will also make the tribes on the Mongolian right-wing despised, and maybe they will lose the position of the alliance leader!

Seeing that Qi Yan was a little hesitant, Qi Gemu couldn't help but be a little anxious, and said: "Father, if we continue to stay here and die, we will only be defeated and become a prisoner of the Han people!" By that time, it's too late to say anything! Our Ordos tribe has lost hope of regaining everything! We must get out as soon as possible! The Hetao is here, even if it is handed over to the Han people for the time being, as long as our vitality is still there, we will be able to take it back sooner or later! ”

Hearing Qi Gemu's words, Qi Yan finally made up his mind and said viciously: "Okay! You're right! You can't fight hard with the Han people! You go and make arrangements now, gather five hundred warriors, and escort the two of us out of here as soon as possible!" …… Remember, don't let anyone find out about all this! ”

Siegmu couldn't help but be stunned and asked, "It's just the two of us leaving?" What about the leaders of the tribes, and the nobles and chiefs of their own tribes? Do you just let them stay here? ”

Previously, for the distribution of the 200,000 stone grain and grass, the leaders of the Mongolian right wing rushed to the royal tent of the Ordos tribe, and there are still many tribal leaders who have not left.

At the same time, the Ordos tribe had a strict internal hierarchy, and there were many nobles and chieftains, all of whom were noble and influential.

Siegmu thought that Bagen would take these people and leave, but he didn't expect Bagen to leave them all here!

Qi Yan sneered: "Of course we want to let them stay here!" Only by letting them stay here, or die at the hands of the Han people, or become captives of the Han people, can our father and son take it back with their own hands!

Therefore, not only can you not let them know that we are about to withdraw, but even if the Han army is about to attack here, you have to hide it from them! Do you understand? ”

Seeing the ruthlessness that flashed in Qi Yan's eyes, Qi Gemu immediately understood the deep meaning of Qi Yan!

Although the Ordos tribe is the leader of the Mongolian right-wing, it is only the leader of the alliance! The major tribes have their own interests to consider, and they will not give everything for the interests of the Ordos tribe!

Today, the Ordos tribe has suffered a great loss of vitality, and if you want to recapture the Hetao area in the future, you must rely on the strength of the major tribes of the Mongolian right-wing! However, the Hetao Plain is the territory of the Ordos tribe, and the Mongolian right-wing tribes may not be able to help at that time!

However, if the leaders of these tribes were allowed to stay here and let them either die at the hands of the Han Chinese or become captives of the Han Chinese, the situation would be completely different!

At that time, there is no need for the Ordos tribe to instigate and promise benefits, whether it is to avenge the leader or to recapture the leader, all tribes will take the initiative to help the Ordos tribe counterattack the Han army!

Therefore, for the sake of the interests of the Ordos tribe, the leaders of the various tribes must stay here!

At the same time, the Ordos tribe suffered such heavy losses, and even the Hetao Plain was captured by the Han army, someone must stand up and take responsibility for this kind of thing! And Qiyan and Sigmu father and son are naturally the best candidates!

At that time, the prestige of Qiyan and Sigmu has dropped greatly, and the nobles and leaders of their own clan who are humble and respectful to them on weekdays will inevitably have a great change in their attitude, and they can't wait to jump out to compete for power and force Qiyan to take the initiative to let Xian!

Under such circumstances, leaving these nobles and leaders here and letting them die at the hands of the Han people is undoubtedly the best choice for Qiyan and Zigmu father and son! After these nobles and leaders fell into the hands of the Han Chinese, there was no one to challenge the rule of Qiyan!

As for those ordinary people of the Ordos tribe, Qi Yan didn't even think about their fate! If you leave with these clansmen, not only will the movement be too big and eye-catching, but it will also slow down the escape speed of Qiyan and Sigmu.

After thinking about this, Siegmu immediately didn't hesitate any longer, nodded and said, "I'll arrange it!" ”

With that, Siegmu left in a hurry.

If Zhao Junchen is allowed to see the vicious plan of Qiyan and Qi Gemu's father and son, he will inevitably be ashamed of himself.

When Zhao Junchen harmed Liang Fuchen, no matter how ruthless the means were, at least Liang Fuchen's life would be saved, and even Liang Fuchen would be given a chance to save everything!

And the father and son of Qiyan and Zigmu, after seeing the crisis coming, did not hesitate to betray all their allies and subordinates!

*

In this way, quietly, Qi Yan and Qi Gemu, father and son, escaped from the royal tent of the Ordos tribe, not only taking away the only 1,000 elite cavalry left in the royal tent of the Ordos tribe, but also collecting all the scouts near the royal tent!

About half a day later, more than 5,000 Ming cavalry suddenly attacked the royal tent of the Ordos tribe!

Because Qiyan and Sigmu's father and son took away all the scout cavalry who were responsible for guarding and spying on the battle situation before fleeing, the leaders and nobles of the various tribes in the royal tent of the Ordos tribe did not receive the news at all, and they had no time to resist at all, so they were served by the Ming cavalry!

In the beginning, the chiefs and nobles of each department would command their subordinates to resist stubbornly, but when the main infantry of the Ming army also arrived here, the battle soon came to an end.

On the evening of this day, Guan Wuyuan, the commander of the middle route army, was full of pride, sitting in the position where Qiyan once was, listening to the reports of the subordinate generals!

Guan Wuyuan is just an embroidered pillow, and he doesn't have much real talent, and most of the battles along the way are specifically responsible for Zhang Chengxun.

Therefore, the report at this time is also dominated by Zhang Chengxun!

"General Qiyuguan, the resistance in the royal tent of the Ordos tribe has now been completely quelled! This time, we have captured a total of more than 8,000 people from the Ordos tribe! Cattle, sheep, horses and all kinds of supplies are not counted!

In addition, a total of eight Mongolian tribal leaders, including Batur, the leader of the right-wing Tumut tribe of Mongolia, the leader of the Karaqin tribe, Zasak, and the leader of the Wengniut tribe, Laober, were also captured! ”

After hearing Zhang Chengxun's report, Guan Wuyuan was immediately overjoyed!

This kind of harvest is definitely the most brilliant record since the Three Route Ming Army invaded the Hetao area!

In particular, he captured eight tribal leaders of the Mongolian right wing in one go, and such a great feats can be called a hundred years old!

Just like Zhao Junchen guessed, Guan Wuyuan's pig is about to take off!

"Good! That's great! Send someone to the Trilateral Governor's Mansion immediately to report the victory! Speaking of this, Guan Wuyuan changed his pleasant expression and said to Zhang Chengxun: "General Zhang, you can rest assured!" All the credits you have made during this period of time will definitely be revealed to the imperial court! This great victory is definitely indispensable to your benefits! ”

Hearing Guan Wuyuan's insincere promise, Zhang Chengxun secretly pursed his lips, but he didn't believe it at all.

During this period of time, Guan Wuyuan and Zhang Chengxun have only maintained a superficial politeness, but they still look at each other unpleasantly!

Since the middle road army attacked the Ordos king's tent all the way, it can be said that it has been a success, and Guan Wuyuan's good news sent to Huamachi Camp is also continuous, these great victories are inseparable from Zhang Chengxun's contribution, Guan Wuyuan will also say that he wants to ask for credit for Zhang Chengxun every time, but in fact, Guan Wuyuan sent to Huamachi Camp in the good news, but Zhang Chengxun's credit has not been mentioned, as if these great victories are all Guan Wuyuan's one-person work.

As he spoke, Guan Wuyuan suddenly thought of something and asked again, "That's right!" Has the leader of the Ordos tribe and the leader of the Mongolian right-wing alliance been caught? ”

Zhang Chengxun shook his head and replied: "When our army attacked here, I couldn't see the figure of Qiyan and his son Qi Gemu at all, so I should have fled in advance." ”

"Incompetence! Useless! In such a good situation, he still let the beggar escape! What do I want you to do! ”

Guan Wuyuan, who had hardly played any role during this period of time, immediately changed his face and angrily reprimanded Zhang Chengxun.

*

And at the same time that Guan Wuyuan changed his face and reprimanded Zhang Chengxun, He Zhang led more than 3,000 soldiers from the new army of soldiers to ambush near Helan Mountain according to Zhao Junchen's instructions!

Once Qiyan and Zigmu and the others escaped, if they wanted to join the main army of their own clan, this was the only way for them to go.

After attacking the Hetao area, He Zhang led his cavalry to go straight here day and night, and now he has been ambushed here for half a day.

Half a day is not a long time, but seeing that the situation near Helan Mountain is calm and there is no sign of attention, He Zhang's mood is a little apprehensive, worried that he will get nothing this time.

And just when He Zhang couldn't help but be worried, he suddenly received a report from a scout, saying that he had discovered that more than a thousand Dzungar cavalry had appeared from the east!

After receiving the news, He Zhang was suddenly refreshed, and his eyes flashed with a terrifying essence.

*

About two days later, the Huamachi battalion received two good news from the middle and left armies in a row!

The content of these two good news is amazing! Guan Wuyuan, the main general of the middle road, said that they had captured the royal tent of the Ordos tribe and captured several Mongolian right-wing tribal leaders, and Fang Zhenshan, the main general of the left road, even sent news that they had captured the leader of the Mongolian right-wing alliance, Qi Yan, and Qi Yan's son, Qi Gemu!

The content of these two good news is obviously beyond everyone's expectations.

For a while, the Huamachi camp was greatly shaken, and everyone was running to tell each other, and the cheers continued one after another!

The imperial court's plan to send troops to recover the Hetao has been mostly successful at this time!

It was at this time that Zhao Junchen's condition was finally under control and he could leave for the capital!
