The next day, a ten-mile camp began to be set up outside the Gubei Pass.

Jia Ke's soldiers and horses gathered at the Gubei Mouth, waiting for the Tatars to come and fight to the death.

Besides, Arslen Khan led his men and horses straight to Gubeikou.

When he was more than 100 miles away from Gubeikou, Arslen Khan suddenly saw a war horse galloping in front of him.

When the man on the horse came to Arslen Khan's horse, he immediately turned over and dismounted, and fell to his knees.

"Qi Qi Great Khan, Nanban Jia Ke has arrived outside the Gubei Pass with hundreds of thousands of horses."

After hearing this, Arslen Khan pursed his lips slightly and said: "This Nanban came quite quickly, it seems that he can't wait, and he is going to die." ”

As soon as Arslen Khan finished speaking, the generals around him laughed, only Meng He was still frowning, but he knew that Jia Ke was powerful, this time Jia Ke was so fast, it seemed that he had a certain victory for his side.

After Arslen Khan finished speaking, he asked the soldier in front of the horse: "How many soldiers and horses does he have?" ”

"Back to the Great Khan, Jia Ke brought more than 200,000 elites of the Beijing camp this time, as well as the Manchu Eight Banners also came to reinforce."

Arslen Khan was stunned when he heard this, in his impression, the Manchu Eight Banners was a steppe tribe that had just risen, although the power was huge, but he had not heard that they had any connection with Jia Ke, how could they reinforce Jia Ke this time.

"How many people have come back from the Manchu Eight Banners?"

Arslen Khan was still very jealous of the Manchu Eight Banners, because he knew that the Manchu Eight Banners' cavalry and archery skills were not inferior to their Tatars, and he didn't know where they bought many armor blades from and were better than their Tatars in terms of equipment.

Moreover, the Manchus have been encroaching on their Tatar land and steppe over the years, and Arslen Khan has not clashed with the Manchus for the time being because of the great enemy of Jia Ke, but he didn't expect that this tribe would not know what to do, and he saw that he had taken refuge in Jia Ke.

"Back to the Great Khan, the Manchu Eight Banners have been dispatched this time, with a total of more than 20 cavalry."

When the generals beside Arslen Khan heard this, they immediately began to talk about it, and they were also very clear about the combat power of the Eight Banners, if there were these cavalry, it would probably not be easy to win this time.

Arslen Khan sat on his horse and pondered for a while, and then said to the horse in front of him: "Go ahead and listen, I will know every move of the Southern Dynasty from now on." ”

After the horse retreated, Arslen Khan said to the generals around him: "From now on, all the troops are cautious and careful, and send the rangers out for thirty miles. ”

The generals listened and agreed.

Then the Tatar formation changed somewhat.

They left the infantry in the middle, the cavalry escorted them all around, and the rangers sent out thirty miles, listening carefully, day and night, for fear that Jia Ke would take advantage of the night to sneak attack.

Moreover, the pace of the Tatar march slowed down again, and they walked for 5 days for 100 miles.

And Jia Ke also rested outside the Gubei Pass for 7 days, and the army he waved was also recuperating, and they were all in good spirits waiting to fight the Tatars.

On the eighth day, Arsleng Khan led his men and horses to a place more than ten miles outside the Gubei Pass and set up camp.

When Arslen Khan was encamped in the army, he did not dare to take anything lightly, and he ordered Meng He to take 50,000 forwards to guard outside the Gubei Pass to guard against Jia Ke's attack at any time.

Arslen Khan took his own soldiers and the chieftains of the tribes to a high hill, where they overlooked the camp of Jak.

They saw that Jia Ke's camp was densely packed, all tents, and it seemed to be divided into several parts, each of which was connected by a large road, and the whole camp had a ditch and a high wall on the periphery, in addition to a high Liao Wangta, and many antlers were arranged on the outermost part of the camp.

There are soldiers patrolling the high walls, and there are soldiers looking to their side from the tower, and the camp can almost be said to be impregnable.

After reading it, Arslen Khan said to Zhou's generals: "See, Jia Ke's use of soldiers is really extraordinary." ”

The generals were also very shocked when they saw Jia Ke's camp, how to attack such a military fortress, this is no different from attacking a city.

After inspecting Jake's camp, Arslen Khan led the people back to the camp that had been built.

Everyone has seen the camp set up by Jia Ke, and then look at their own camp, which is simply incomparable.

The atmosphere of everyone is a little gloomy now, after all, they are here with the belief of victory, and they haven't seen Jia Ke yet, just looking at his Dazhai knows that it is a hard bone.

Arslen Khan sat in the big tent of the Chinese army and said to everyone: "You don't have to be frightened, although the soldiers under Jia Ke's command are elite, our Tatars are even more powerful than him, although Jia Ke is brave, he is only one person, and those generals under him are probably not the opponents of everyone." When we arrived in front of the two armies, we waited for the victory to be won. ”

The general, who was comforted by Arslen Khan, recovered some of his morale a little.

These people are no longer as arrogant as they were at the beginning, and even a few have come to their senses and are beginning to think about the victory or defeat of this big battle.

Besides, in Jia Ke's camp, at this time he already knew that Arslen Khan was encamped ten miles away.

So Jia Ke gathered the generals and discussed how to give Arslen Khan a dismissal.

Liaodong Jiedu made Feng Mo the first to stand up and said: "Lord, it's better for us to follow the old method and give him a surprise attack tonight." ”

After listening to Feng Mo's words, he objected: "General Feng's words are inappropriate, we have fought with the Tatars a few times and attacked them, how can they be unguarded?" ”

Jia Ke nodded after listening to the respective attitudes of the two generals under him, he thought that Arslen Khan would definitely guard against his sneak attack this time, if he really sent people and horses in the middle of the night, I was afraid that he would lose his troops.

But just let the other party rest peacefully for a night before his own victory, and let them recuperate, Jia Ke was a little unwilling.

Jia Ke's eyes rolled and he had an idea, "This time the Tatars are fully prepared, and we can't be in a hurry and act rashly." ”

Feng Mo was a little anxious after hearing this: "Lord, there is no need for trickery, if you confront the other party here, I am afraid it will take a long time." ”

Jia Ke said disapprovingly: "You people, just confidants but don't know the other, you can't just know that it will consume our money and food, but you don't expect that the Tatars have come from afar, and it is more difficult to supply, and the consumption is several times that of us, if the confrontation is beneficial to our dynasty and unfavorable to the Tatars, why are we afraid to confront them?" ”

The following generals all nodded in unison after listening to Jia Ke's explanation, and at the same time had a clear understanding of the strategic policy of this word to fight with the Tatars.

Jia Ke continued: "Even so, I can't let them rest there in peace. ”

After Jia Ke finished speaking, he took out an arrow, "Where is Jiriga?" ”

Zhenghuang Banner Dutong Ji Rigela immediately came out of work, worried about kneeling in front of Jia Ke, and arched his hand upwards and said, "The slave is here." ”

"I order you to lead 10,000 cavalry, and go to the Tatar village tonight, and keep making noise, disturbing the rest of the other party, if the other party sends men and horses to chase after them, you don't have to fight with them, wait until the other party retreats and harass them in front of the village."

Gizhigra took the order and returned to the squad.

Jia Ke then picked up another arrow and said: "Feng Mo, I ordered you to lead the men and horses of the headquarters and ambush behind Ji Ri Gela, after the other party was harassed by Ji Ri Ge several times, he would definitely be impatient to go to pursue, and then you would lead the men and horses to leave this army for me." ”

Feng Mo took the order and stood aside.

After Jia Ke finished his order, he ordered the tents to be dispersed and prepare for tonight's battle.

At the third watch that night, there was silence in the Tatar camp, as if the cavalry who were constantly patrolling outside the camp were only soldiers on the camp wall.

At this moment, suddenly the sound of gongs and drums in the north was loud, and the sound of horses' hooves was dense, and they came straight to the camp.

When the Tatar sentry noticed this, he immediately sounded the gong.

Immediately behind the Tatar walls appeared numerous archers, and at the same time countless torches were lit, illuminating the surroundings as bright as day.

When Gizhigra approached the Tatar wall with his cavalry, he immediately met them with countless bows and arrows.

As soon as Ji Zhigra saw this situation, if he really rushed forward, he and his ten thousand people would probably not get close to the wall, and they would all be set up as hedgehogs.

So without delay, he took the men and horses around in front of the Tatar village, and then retreated into the darkness.

When the Tatars saw the enemy retreating, they relieved themselves and went to rest.

Knowing that there was no quarter of an hour's effort, the gong sounded again, so he could only drag his tired body to the wall again, only to see the sound of horses' hooves in the distance, and it seemed that the group of people had returned.

The last time he was too close to the Tatar village, he lost a few hundred men, and now he lives outside the range of the opponent's bow and arrow.

At this time, Arslen Khan also came out of the big tent, he came to the wall with his own soldiers, only to see the other party's cavalry in front of the big village, constantly galloping, which seemed to be looking for his own flaws.

Arslen Khan frowned, and directly ordered Otto Man, the general of the Western Regions beside him.

"You take 10,000 cavalry, go out to test the opponent, if the opponent withdraws as soon as the battle is fought, you must not pursue, in case you fall into the opponent's ambush."

Otto Mann received the order, turned around and led 10,000 cavalry out of Dazhai.

Seeing that the other party had indeed sent men and horses to attack him, Gizhigra did not fight, but withdrew with his cavalry into the distance.

Otto Mann obeyed Arslen Khan's orders very much, and he did not chase after him when he saw the other party evacuating, but only watched the other party disappear into the night from a distance, and then he took his men and horses back to hand in the order.

Who knew that Otto Mann had just returned, and not long after, Gizhigra returned with his men and horses.

Arslen Khan saw that the other party came to his big village again and again to make noise, but he didn't attack, where did he not understand what Jia Ke meant, this was to fatigue himself and let himself not rest.

So Arslen Khan no longer hesitated, and immediately ordered Otto Mann to attack again with his men and horses, this time this time in any case, he had to drive this harassing army far away, otherwise he would not be able to sleep tonight, and how would he fight the next day?

Otto Mann received the order, and this time he went out again, and pursued the cavalry under the command of Gizhigra, and this time he did not flinch, and followed closely behind him.

Ji Rigela saw that the other party was chasing after him, and he sneered in his heart, and sure enough, let their master guess correctly, and the other party couldn't help it.

So the two teams chased and fled, and galloped forward for more than ten miles, and at this time there was a small mound next to it.

When Otto Mann saw that the other man's men and horses had disappeared behind the mound, he immediately ordered his cavalry to stop advancing, and this man was also very cautious, he was afraid that he would be ambushed by the other party again.

But Otto Mann understood too late, and as soon as his troops stopped attacking, drums were beating all around, and countless men and horses appeared from all directions, surrounding his troops.

Immediately after that, Jizhigra, who had disappeared just now, also returned with his men and horses.

Otto Mann knew that this situation was not good, so he immediately ordered his cavalry, the front team was replaced by the rear team, and the rear team became the front team, and they broke through in the direction they came.

But where could he escape now, I saw bows and crossbows fired in all directions, and the cavalry brought by Otto Mann fell down in rows as if they had been cut wheat.

Otto Mann himself was also brave, and when he saw this, he not only did not retreat, but urged his soldiers to keep breaking forward.

Feng Mo and the centaurs were right in front of Otto Man.

The two of them looked at each other, the big iron knife in Otto Man's hand was a knife in the head, Feng Mo parried with the gun in his hand, and the two fought together.

Let's be honest, although Feng Mo has held the position of Jiedu envoy over the years, he is mainly a little resourceful, but he is not very strong in martial arts.

The two of them only fought for seven or eight rounds, and Feng Mo couldn't resist it, but fortunately, the soldiers next to him saw that the boss was in danger, so they rushed forward and separated Feng Mo and Otto Mann, which saved his life.

Otto Man was now only concerned about fighting his way out of the encirclement, and he didn't think about continuing the pursuit, so he let Feng Mo go, and led the remnants of his troops to break out of the encirclement and go to the Tatar village.

Feng Mo and Ji Zhigra led their troops together and disposed of all the remnants of the Tatars, and then returned to Dazhai and handed over the order to Jia Ke.

After Otto Mann returned to Dazhai with the remnants of his army, he immediately went to ask Arslen Khan for his guilt.

Arslen Khan did not mean to blame, and stepped forward to help Otto Mann himself.

"What is the general's crime? This is all Ben Khan's carelessness, so he fell into the other party's trick, and the general was able to break out of the encirclement and reduce losses immediately, which is a great achievement. ”

Otto Mann was moved to tears when he heard that Arslen Khan was not only not to blame, but was courteous.

After Arslen Khan sent Otto Man away again, his face immediately became gloomy, but he didn't expect to be defeated for a while before he met Jia Ke, which made Arslen Khan's heart feel gloomy.
