Chapter 18: The Coalition Attacks on Mirigi at Night

Temujin kowtowed to Wang Han and left the Kereh tribe with his two younger brothers. Temujin said to his brothers: "This time it was not in vain, Wang Han promised to send troops, Zamuhe is also our clansman, when we were children, the two of us often played together, and we became an Antar, and he and Wang Han also get along very well, he will definitely help us." Now we will go to the Zataran tribe to find Zamuhe."

Hesa'er said: "In this case, you don't have to drive your brother to go, you better go back to the tribe quickly and prepare soldiers and horses, I will go to Zamuhe, I will invite Zamuhe, don't worry, brother." ”

Temujin looked at Hesar and knew that this younger brother was not only loyal, but also very fond of using his brains, and it would not go wrong to leave this matter to him, so he said: "Okay, I don't worry if you go, be careful on the road, go and go back quickly." ”

"Yes! Dear Chief! He swung at Temujin and rode away.

Ever since Pother and her mother Ah Yue'er were robbed, Belgutai was even more anxious than Temujin, shouting all day long to kill, kill, kill and save people, and now seeing that Hesar had something to do, he hurriedly said: "Brother, what can I do now?" ”

Temujin knew that Belgutai cared very much about his mother and sister-in-law, and if he didn't give him something to do, he would cause trouble, so he said: "By the way, I also have an Antar named Borshu, why don't you go and find him and help us kill the Miragi together." ”

"Okay, brother, for the sake of my sister-in-law, I will definitely invite Brother Borshu, and if he doesn't come, I'll tie him up." When Belgutai left, Temujin shouted, "You are too reckless to go and leave if you don't know where to look for it." ”

Belgutai turned around the horse's head again, and said with a smile: "If he can run out of the steppe, I will find him." ”

"Such a big grassland, when you find it, the battle will be over." Temujin said to Borshu, "Don't come nonsense, be polite to your brother's friends in the future, remember, don't make trouble, go and go back quickly!" ”

Belgutai smiled: "Got it, listen to it!" Before the words fell, an arrow sprung out.

Temujin returned to the camp, organized all the men of the tribe, selected the best horses, and in two days organized hundreds of soldiers and horses, prepared sufficient supplies, and rehearsed many times, waiting for the arrival of Wang Han and Zamuhe's soldiers and horses.

Early in the morning of the third day, Belgutai and Borshu galloped together, and Temujin hugged Borshu in his arms and circled the place a few times, and then let them into the tent room, and as soon as everyone was seated, Hesar also ran in and said: "Report to the chief, everything is done, and Brother Zamuhe has promised to send 20,000 troops and set off immediately." When I returned, I went back to the tribe of Kereh, and told Wang Han of Zamuhe's letter and the dispatch of troops, and they had made an appointment to meet at the foot of Mount Burhan in three days. ”

Seeing that his two younger brothers were so capable and had become his right and left hands, Temujin said happily: "It is a blessing from the Immortal Heaven to have such good brothers as you. After saving your sister-in-law, we husband and wife will kowtow to you to thank you! ”

Hesar said: "Although you are our own brother, but you are also our leader, how can there be a reason for an elder brother and a leader to worship his younger brother and subordinates?" ”

Belgutai said hesitantly: "That's, that's!" It's right to say goodbye to your sister-in-law. ”

Temujin patted his younger brother and Borshu on the shoulder and said, "Okay, let's not talk about it, let's quickly gather our soldiers and horses to join them at the bottom of the mountain." ”

The next day, when the sun had just risen, I saw a team of colorful flags waving and a mighty army coming from the north. Temujin greeted him, and it turned out that Zamuhe's army of 20,000 men had arrived overnight. The white horse boy and the condor hero met again. This time they met, they were much stronger and more majestic, and the two happily punched each other, laughing, and the bell-like voice resounded through the valley.

Zamuhe encamped the army on the spot and waited for the arrival of Wang Han's army.

They waited for two days, but did not see the shadow of Wang Han's army, and waited for another day and still did not see Wang Han's men and horses arrive. It was not until the fourth day that about 20,000 men and horses were seen slowly approaching the Buerhan Mountain, and they were heavily guarded. The suspicious Zamuhe became alert and ordered the army to prepare for battle. After the two armies held each other for a while, they found out that it was Wang Han's army.

Seeing Wang Han, Zamuhe was very angry and asked, "Why is it late that we have made an appointment?" Four days have passed before you go to the appointment, what is the reason? ”

Wang Han's son Xiankun and several generals opposed sending troops to help Temujin, delaying the schedule, Wang Han was already angry, and when he saw a junior questioning himself like this, he said angrily: "Something delayed the trip, what's the fuss?" ”

Zamuhe was young and vigorous, and he was polite, and said, "What we have said is an oath, and you will be punished for breaking your oath." ”

Wang Han, as the Great Khan of a tribe, was respected everywhere, and had always been arrogant and arrogant, and was very unhappy when he was counted down by a milky boy, and he thought that it was really a fucking dog biting the moon---- and he didn't know how thick the sky was. Just as he was about to get angry, the witty Temujin was afraid that he would miss his big event, so he hurriedly stepped forward and persuaded him: "The water has washed the Dragon King Temple, and they are all their own family, and if something is a step late, it is understandable, this is not and cannot miss the big thing." Temujin would like to thank both. ”

Seeing that Temujin was so reconciled, the commanders of the two armies sat down to discuss the attack on the tribe of Miriji.

Temujin recounted the current enemy situation and his determination to take revenge and get his wife back. "We have come to avenge you. ”

Wang Han said: "Child, for the father, I have to take my daughter-in-law back for you this time, don't worry." ”

Seeing that Wang Hanyi was selling old and taking advantage of Temujin, Zamuhe even pulled himself down for a generation, rolling his eyes and being unhappy.

Temujin didn't care about these generations, as long as he could get his wife back. So he said: "This time, with the help of the two leaders, I will always remember it in my heart, and I will definitely repay it in the future." Now let's set up a battle for it. ”

Wang Han said: "As far as I know, there are three branches of the Mirrigi people, and they live in different places, so we can fight him first. ”

Zamuhe said: "I don't know which one robbed my good friend's wife?" ”

Temujin said, "The branch where Toh'er belongs, they live in Burak on the back side of Mount Bhurhan. My wife is there. ”

"We have an army of forty thousand, not to mention one branch, even the entire tribe of Mirriji, there is nothing to say. Besides, I have been to the Mirrigi tribe a few times, and I am familiar with the terrain there. Zamuhe preemptively said, "The most dangerous thing is the diligent river, as long as they cross the river, they will have no danger to defend." ”

Temujin said: "The problem is that the river is diligent, the water is deep and rapid, and if we are not careful, we may expose our actions." If they had fled ahead of time, it would have been difficult to get my wife back. ”

Wang Han said: "This is easy to do, my men and horses are in ambush on the periphery, cutting off their retreat, you just have to attack." ”

Zamuhe said: "My men and horses secretly crossed the Buerhan Mountain, took advantage of the darkness to cross the Qinqin Huo River, obediently they were unprepared, a surprise attack, it is absolutely no problem to recapture the Erti, and then kill him cleanly, cattle, sheep, horses, women's property, and rob them all." ”

Temujin said: "Good plan, just according to what the two leaders said, I will take the lead, first secretly cross the river, touch into the camp of the Miriji people, we should cooperate with the outside and catch him by surprise." How is it? ”

Wang Han looked at Zamuhe and said, "I think it's so decided, and I will also send soldiers and horses to clean up the other two branches." ”

Zamuhe said: "That's it, let's go our separate ways, the sooner the better." ”

After the troops were arranged, the three teams of men and horses acted separately. Temujin was eager to save his wife, and as soon as it was dark, he led his people over the Buerhan Mountains and came to the bank of the Qinqinhuo River. Wang Han and Zamuhe's men and horses also arrived at the designated position.

Temujin ordered his men to cut down wood from the mountains and build them into rafts, and in less than an hour a few hundred men crossed the Qinqin River and went straight to the camp of the Mirrijites.

Temujin's men and horses entered the camp of the Mirriji, and when they saw it, they killed and robbed it, and the whole camp of the Mirriji was full of wolves, corpses and rivers of blood.

When the day came, the men killed and fled, and many women were arrested. When the captives were counted, the two important men Temujin was looking for were not there. One is to take off the black, and the other is to take off the child.

Temujin was furious, and brought the women together for interrogation one by one, and killed all those who said they did not know. When an old woman was arraigned, she was so frightened that she could no longer stand. Without waiting for interrogation, he confessed that it was the wife of the blackened child.

Temujin lifted up the old woman and asked, "Where is your husband?" ”

The wife said, "My husband went to another tribe to see his grandson at my son's place, and he was not at home. ”

"Where are all the strong men?" Hissar said.

"In the middle of the night, someone came back from hunting in the mountains, saying that someone was crossing the river, and they ran away early, and before we could escape, we were blocked by you." The old woman wept.

Temujin said, "What about my family that they robbed? ”

The wife who took off the black and took off the child said: "I heard that the beautiful little daughter-in-law promised my husband's little wife's son Mu Tuo'er." The older one said that it was also a wife who should be fast, and he was promised to be a wife. ”

When Temujin heard that he had been promised, he was furious and slapped the old woman and said, "Tell me quickly, have they married?" ”

The wife who took off the black and took off her face covered her face and said: "That little daughter-in-law was hidden by Mu Tuo'er, I don't know, and the wife who should have been the wife of Eliebedu has become the wife of Eliebedu." ”

As soon as Belgutai heard that his mother had been forcibly occupied by Erebedu, he became angry and waved his knife to cut his wife in two, and ran out and shouted: "Mother, where are you, Belgutai has come to save you." ”

Several more people were interrogated, but they said that they had not seen Balti, and Temujin killed several people in succession. Hesar said: "Chief, my sister-in-law must be fine, will she be among the refugees, let's go and find out." ”

Temujin could not help but say, and he mounted his horse and ran out, and the people followed, shouting: "O Erti! Bad-child post! Where are you? ”

The two armies of Wang Han and Zamuhe, following Temujin's soldiers and horses, swept away the tribe of Mirriji, and did not see the leader of Miriji, Tuohetoer, and immediately waved his army westward, capturing the other two tribes of Mirriji, but still not finding Tuoheiter, they swept away the three branches of Miriji, and plundered all the people and cattle and sheep and materials.

When she and the maid were crying, they heard a great commotion outside the tent, and learned from the cries of the rebellious people that it was possible that Temujin had brought in with his troops and horses. He stopped crying and said, "It's really Temujin who came to save us, so let's get out of here before Mutu'er comes, right?" ”

"I'm not hiding, I'll die here, anyway, I don't have the face to see Temujin again." ”

He persuaded: "Silly boy, what are you talking about, how can you confess to Temujin when you die, you still have his flesh and blood in your belly." ”

Po Erti covered her face again and said, "I really don't have the face to see him." ”

"Quick! Don't think nonsense, maybe Mu Tuo'er will send someone to get you away, and you will be willing to let Mu Tuo'er waste this life? He ran out with his head and ran out, but before he could go far, he was scattered by a group of refugees.

After being dispersed, they were crowded by the tide of refugees to the Qinqinhuo River, and the refugees fled west along the riverbank. Standing on the bank of the river, looking at the Buerhan Mountain on the other side, she cried: "Temujin, I'm sorry, I'll go first, and I'll be your woman in the next life......"

She was about to jump into the river when she was grabbed by someone.

It turned out that Temujin searched the camp and did not see the figure of the maid, but found the maid in the crowd. Temujin called out to the maid: "Why are you here alone, my son-in-law?" ”

The maid saw Temujin crying when she saw it, "But I hope you come back, don't you know how our days have passed?" ”

Temujin said anxiously: "After this incident, where is Polti now?" ”

He stopped crying and said, "We were together just now, and a wave of refugees washed us apart. But I can't get far away yet, I'm looking for it. ”

"In which direction did they go?" Temujin roared.

The maid pointed in the direction of the Qinqin River and said, "Over there!" ”

Temujin threw down his black horse and chased it in the direction of the Qinqin River. Not far from the riverbank, I saw a woman crying and jumping into the river. Fei dismounted and jumped over a few steps, grabbing the woman who jumped into the river.

She was about to jump into the river when she was dragged by someone, and when she looked back and saw that it was her husband Temujin, she immediately fainted and fell into Temujin's arms.

Temujin didn't expect that the woman in front of him, who was a little bulky, was really his wife Erti, who he thought about day and night, and held Erti in his arms and said, "It's really you, my Erti!" ”

The maid also chased after her, and when she saw her fainting in Temujin's arms, she cried, "Young woman, you have suffered a great sin." ”

Temujin looked at the bulging body of the child and said in surprise, "What's the matter? Who did it......"
