Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Suspicious Soldiers Scared Back 30,000 Troops
The spies sent by the Tatar chieftain Zailin did not come to the Mongol camp without incident. Several people wandered around the Mongolian base camp for a day disguised as herdsmen, and did not find any unusual signs of the Mongolian tribe. There were no soldiers or horses left, and there was no tense atmosphere. The camp was full of old people, women and children, as well as many cows, sheep and horses. The old people were cleaning, the children were playing, the women were milking and shearing their sheep, and as usual, they lived a peaceful life, and there was nothing unusual about it.
The Tatar spies were also warmly received by the Mongols, and they left the Mongol camp after eating and drinking wine and meat. On the way back, they encountered many herdsmen grazing, and waves of sheep blocked the way, and they had to go around for fear of being discovered, and it took more than two days to return to the station.
The spies returned to the camp and gave a detailed account of the reconnaissance to the neighbors, who were not happy and did not hold the spies accountable for the delay, and immediately ordered the army to distribute all the beef and mutton, mare's milk, and food to the soldiers, to eat and drink enough, to cheer up, and to plunder the women and property of the Mongolian camp.
The Tatars ate and drank and indulged all night. The next day, on the morning of the third day of encampment, the army was ordered to take up camp and march swaggering towards the Mongol camp.
More than two days were won by the design of Wokotai. During this time, more than 10,000 Mongolian soldiers and horses were all in place according to the plan of Ogedei. There is still no news of the army that has returned from the Tatars, and judging from the route, it will take more than a day for the vanguard to return at the earliest. Wokotai has read a lot of military books, and knows very well that if he wants to surround or confront more than 30,000 soldiers and horses with only more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, even if the combat effectiveness is very weak, it is simply impossible, and once the bluff is revealed, the consequences will be unbelievable.
Wokotai's strategy of delaying the army used the other party's spies to buffer for two days, and if it waited for more than a day for the arrival of the army, it would not allow the soldiers and horses of the neighbors to surpass the Dieli Wenpantuo Mountain. Fortunately, arrangements had been made earlier, and if there was a miracle, such a miracle would be just a thought. He still used suspicious tactics to stop the neighbors from getting along, and he didn't dare to risk attacking.
So, he told Monlik: "It will be more than a day before our army can return, and the soldiers and horses of the neighbors have already been dispatched, and it seems that we must try our luck, and now we can give the order that Uncle Temuge on the hill of Dieliwin Pantuo will raise his flag and shout as originally planned." ”
Up to the present time everything had developed according to Ogedei's expectations, and Monlik naturally believed that the young man had Ogedei, and did not hesitate to give orders to Temuge. Not much effort, the banner on the Dieli Wenpantuo Mountain is displayed, the killing sound is shocking, the entire Dieli Wenpantuo Mountain is Mongolian soldiers and horses, there seem to be thousands of troops and horses.
The neighbors did not open a road of less than ten miles, and the forward came to report: There are a large number of Mongolian soldiers and horses on the mountain of Dieli Wenpantuo. Taken aback, he ordered the army to stop advancing, and personally led a group of men and horses out twenty miles, and really found that there were Mongol soldiers and horses moving on the Dieli Wenpantuo Mountain. So, the spies who had returned from the Mongol camp were brought in and asked, "What's going on?" ”
Several spies trembled with fright and said, "There was not a single Mongolian soldier when we passed by, and we don't know where these soldiers and horses came from. ”
Unexpectedly, Temujin set up an ambush and shouted that he had been deceived, so he raised his knife and cut down the spies.
After returning to the camp, I thought about it repeatedly, and felt that Temujin did not send troops and horses to chase after him, which means that he was unlikely to expect that I would come to raid his old camp, and my scouts did not find any soldiers on the hill when they passed back and forth, and now that I had set out, a large number of soldiers and horses appeared out of thin air, which was clearly a bluff, and prevented me from attacking their camp in a delaying way. Haha, this time Lao Tzu is not fooled by you, even if the fish dies and the net is broken, you have to give it a try. Then he shouted to the army: "Temujin is far away in Changbai Mountain, and there will not be many soldiers and horses on that mountain, but it is a bluff, as long as we pass the Dieli Wenpantuo Mountain, we can go straight to the old camp of the Mongols, where there are beautiful women and fat beef and mutton and fresh mare's milk, which is enough for you to enjoy." Rush my warriors! ”
The revenge of the Tatar soldiers, coupled with a few days of hunger and yearning for the Mongol woman, instigated the disunity of the Zatar neighbors, and immediately the crowd was excited, energetic, screaming, and rushing towards the Dieli Wenpantuo Mountain with the discord of the Zatar neighbors.
Seeing that Zha's neighbors were not in harmony, Wokotai seemed to see a flaw, so he immediately issued an order to let the soldiers and horses on both wings of the ambush rotate in place and stir up clouds of dust and smoke.
Seeing that there were also soldiers and horses on both sides, the wolf smoke was rushing to the sky, and there was really a large army in ambush, which shook his correct judgment, so he ordered a quick retreat to prevent being surrounded by the Mongol army.
When the Tatar soldiers and horses found that there were Mongol soldiers and horses in front of them and on both flanks, they were already frightened, and they turned around and ran away without waiting for the order of their neighbors. The Tatars' soldiers and horses were originally a rabble that had been improvised for a while, and they were afraid that the Mongol army would not be a day and a half, for fear that they would be caught by the Mongol soldiers and boiled and fed, and they would flee without their lives.
The 30,000-strong army is like a frightened bird, with no formation, no formation, and chaos into a pot of porridge. People hit horses, horses trample on people, draw knives in order to escape for their lives, slash each other, and kill each other, killing and injuring countless people. There are no generals, no generals, no soldiers, and they retreat thirty miles, plus those who have fled, there are less than 20,000 people left.
If you keep fleeing eastward, you might be caught in the arms of Temujin's army, and you won't have any chance of surviving. forcibly stopped the defeated men and horses, and prepared to tidy up the formation. At this time, Tuo Lei, who was waiting to meet with the Mongolian reinforcements, led 2,000 men and horses, killed, rushed, dusty, and neighed of war horses. Even the neighbors did not agree with each other, thinking that it was really Temujin's army that had come back and surrounded him. With the 2,000 men and horses around him, he fled in a southeastern direction.
The rest of the soldiers and horses fled for their lives when they saw that they were not in harmony, shouting that it was not good, and they went together like scattered sheep, and galloped around on the grassland.
This kind of sharp turn in the battle situation is a miracle that the young Wokotai thought in his heart really appeared, but he didn't expect Tatar's soldiers to be so bearish, and the little suspicious tactics scared them to the ground, which was really vulnerable. It seems that there is no need to wait for the return of the army of the father Khan to catch turtles in the urn. To deal with the stragglers who are running around and basically have no combat effectiveness, our more than 10,000 men are enough. So, Wowotai smiled and said to Mongol Lik: "Grandpa Monlik, this third plan doesn't need to wait for Father Khan and them, we will do it ourselves." Quickly give the order, let Uncle Temuge leave a thousand men to guard the mountain, and the rest of the soldiers and horses to go down the mountain to hunt, and notify the soldiers and horses on both wings and the front mine, to start hunting, divide and hunt, and not let any of them escape. ”
Monlik laughed, "Okay! Don't even think about escaping from the grassland. ”
The Mongol soldiers and horses in the four directions received the command of Monlik, and like a fierce tiger coming down the mountain, they roared down the mountain and pounced on the scattered Tatar enemy troops. Suddenly, the steppe became a hunting ground, and the Mongol soldiers surrounded a group of Tatar soldiers and cut them indiscriminately. The Mongol soldiers became more and more courageous, and the Tatar soldiers died more and more, and in less than a day's effort, more than 30,000 people were killed and wounded, and less than 2,000 people were left.
These 2,000 people were actually the guards of the discord between the neighbors, covering the discord of the neighbors to flee in the direction of the south, trying to enter the golden realm. Za Lin was glad that he had escaped the encirclement, and suddenly saw a troop of soldiers and horses killed not far away.
This army was the 2,000 men led by Temujin's fourth son, Tulei, who had received an order from Ogedai to intercept the deserters of the Tatars.
Tuo Lei Xiaowo Kotai is two years old, although he is young, he is still a playboy less than ten years old, but his martial arts are not bad, riding and shooting swords and arrows, proficient in everything, and he is not afraid of heaven and earth, heroic, loyal and righteous, and when he grows up, he assists two generations of Great Khans and pushes his son to the throne of Khan, creating a world-shattering record and a heroic story that can be sung and cried. At this time, Xiao Tuo Lei is the age at which he can become powerful, like a little tiger pounces on his neighbors.
When the neighbors were frightened, Le Ma looked back and saw that there were not many soldiers and horses rushing over, only 2,000 people, which was the same as his own men and horses. Since you can't escape, it's better to fight, maybe there is a way out. So, he shouted: "Warriors, don't be afraid that there are not many soldiers and horses on the opposite side, rush over and kill them!" ”
The Tatar soldiers, who had just escaped from danger, encountered the pursuers again, and had no way to escape, only to fight to the death, so they shouted: "Kill!" Kill! ”
The two armies of soldiers and horses that met on a narrow road rushed to the front and lined up in formation. The neighbors are not united to see the other party's leading general, ha, it turned out to be a little doll, with a teapot cover on the bare little head, two small braids at both ends of the head, a short hair on the head to the eyebrows, different from other Mongolian children, is also tied with a red rope behind the head with a high braid, like a scorpion tail. Big-eyed, high-nosed, small-mouthed like a beagle, tied with a red rope with a few pieces of leopard skin hanging under the eyes of the navel, barefoot and bare-chested. With a bow and arrows and a long quiver on his back, and a gleaming scimitar in his hand, he rode a tall galactic horse without a saddle. People are small and can't reach the horses, and they usually don't want a saddle at all, which is different, but they have practiced a body of equestrian stunts. But in the eyes of Zalin's discord, it was funny, and he pointed to Tuo Lei and said: "Whose dog doll are you who dare to block the way of this king?" ”
Tuo Lei saw that the leader of the other party was a tall and arrogant man, who claimed to be the king, who was this person? The people left behind in Mongolia only knew that the soldiers and horses of the Tatars were coming, but they did not know that it was the neighbors who were not in harmony with the team, and when Tuo Lei heard that this person called himself the king, his heart was broken, and he looked a little extraordinary at this person's appearance, could he be Tatar's...... Thinking of this, he pointed with a knife and said, "Are you a dog?" What do you say, this king, where is the king? ”
One of the guards on the other side saw that the other party was a child and also grew up, and shouted: "Little dog child, this is the leader of this Tatar tribe, and the king of the neighbor is not in harmony, if you don't get off your horse and kowtow quickly, or I will kill you!" ”
"Haha!" When Tuo Lei heard that the man was the enemy who poisoned his grandfather and the Great Khan, he jumped up, stood on the horse's back with one foot, and put the other foot on the raised horse's head, pointed at the neighbor with a scimitar and said angrily, "It turned out to be the big villain who poisoned my imperial grandfather, and I didn't expect that I Tuo Lei caught you for my father Khan." ”
Hearing that the little doll opposite was the son of Temujin, the grandson of his great enemy, he said angrily: "It turned out to be the son of the enemy, God really has eyes, and today I caught you and cooked you." ”
"Yes, it is Grandpa and I Torre, Changshengtian has manifested his spirit and sent you to the master, if my third brother knows that it is your kid who leads the team to make trouble, he will definitely not give me such a good opportunity, he will come to catch you personally." Tow Mine Road.
"Third brother?" I wondered if it was Temujin who surrounded my army. Said in surprise, "Little brat, who is your third brother?" ”
Tuo Lei's neck twisted and said proudly: "Tell you, scare you to death, my third brother's name is Wo Kotai, this time we 10,000 people surrounded and killed more than 30,000 of you, it was my third brother's plan, he didn't know that you were a big villain, if he knew, he would have designed to arrest you." ”
"What do you say? It wasn't Temujin who commanded the siege of us this time? "The neighbor is puzzled.
"Of course not, my father Khan is leading a large army to encircle and suppress your lair, you don't need a wolf's knife to kill rabbits, to deal with you scattered sheep, my third brother's suspicious plan is enough." Tuo Lei said a little impatiently, "Big villain, quickly dismount and surrender, I will let you die a happy death, otherwise let me catch it and taste the same experience of Mongolian torture as your father." ”
At this time, the neighbors were not in harmony with Tyduo was depressed, more than 30,000 soldiers and horses were killed by 10,000 soldiers and horses, and the king of his own generation was planted in the hands of a teenager, which was really a great shame. He was aroused by the thunderbolt's hatred that his father was tortured to death, and a breath of disgusting breath was blocked in his throat, and he cooed, but he couldn't speak, and with his legs clamped, the mount rushed out, holding a long knife and rushing towards Tuolei.
Seeing that Za Lai was not in harmony with his neighbors, he suddenly killed, and muttered in his mouth: "Big villain, sneak attack!" Then he shouted, "Go!" The galactic horse leaped up and flew out of the air with its front hooves. Still standing on the horse's back, his legs as if they had grown out of the horse, he did not move, and with a flick of his scimitar in his hand, flew out like an arrow, and took his head as a neighbor.
No matter how long the long knife of the neighbor is not as long as the flying knife of the mine, the long knife has not yet reached the front of the mine, the flying knife of the mine has touched the door of the brain, the neighbor tilted his head, dodged the flying knife, but the shoulder did not dodge, the "stab" was cut a big hole, the neighbor did not fit "oops" and put away the long knife to block, and the "whoosh" flying knife flicked back to the hand of the mine. It turned out that the scimitar of the tow mine was different, with a tail on the handle and a slender silver chain, which was attached to the tow mine. This is the same long-tailed scimitar that Temujin designed for his little apprentices in Temujin's companion fold.
This trick is called Flying Knife Glimpse, and it is a self-created project of Tuolei, and I haven't tried it yet. I used it for the first time today and the effect is not bad. The discord between the neighbors was so frightened that he took away the knife and looked at the tow mine, and he didn't dare to despise it anymore, so he hurriedly beckoned his soldiers and horses and said, "Kill me!" ”
The guards who did not agree with the neighbors had never seen a child so magical, and they had not come to the gods for a while, and the neighbors did not meet with each other before they rode and killed the Mongol soldiers.
Seeing the flying knife thrown out, he knew that he was going to do it, and as the flying knife flew out, the war horse rose and rushed to kill it.
