Chapter 582: Hu No Man
After subduing the remaining 50,000 Tatar captives, Liu Juntao ordered the army to immediately move north and occupy the Tatar tent.
Liu Juntao ordered the general Zhou Zongsheng to lead the officers and men of the Changshui Army to set off first, preemptively occupy the tent of the Tatar Army, and then he and the officers and men of the Tiance Army followed up and escorted more than 50,000 Tatar prisoners.
Although these captives have been temporarily intimidated by Liu Juntao, and they have expressed their allegiance to the Ming Dynasty, it does not mean that these captives will sincerely obey the dispatch.
Liu Juntao knew very well that once he had the opportunity, these captives would definitely fight back without the slightest hesitation.
Therefore, Liu Juntao was still very wary of the more than 50,000 Tatar prisoners, and specially mobilized the officers and soldiers of the Zhichong Army to strictly guard them all the way.
It didn't take long for the main army of the Tiance Army to go all the way north and cross the Yinma River.
At this time, the Yinma River is no longer the rough waves of the previous days, and the amount of water is even less than before the flood, and the officers and soldiers of the Tiance Army can cross the river with the help of rafts and war horses, but it only takes some time.
Just as the army crossed the river in turn, Hu Dexing, the chief military officer of Shandong Town, who returned to the army, said excitedly: "Duxian, after this battle, the Tatar Department died in a battle, and our army has made immortal achievements, how do you say the imperial court will reward us?" ”
Liu Juntao laughed out loud and said, "I don't care how the court rewards us, but there is one thing that is doomed......"
"What's the matter?"
"Our Tiance soldiers will definitely leave their names in history!"
At this time, Liu Juntao had already received an urgent report from the general Zhou Zongsheng: the officers and men of the Changshui Army had occupied the tent of the Tatar Army, and the thousands of iron cavalry left behind in the tent of the Tatar Department were defeated in a battle, and the more than 400,000 Tatar troops near the tent were all captured by the officers and soldiers of the Changshui Army!
Hearing this news, Liu Juntao laughed loudly: The Tatar Ministry is completely finished!
In the past, after the Han soldiers and horses defeated the Hu people, they basically hit the soldiers and horses of the Hu people, and there was no way to capture the Hu people's subordinates.
Today, Liu Juntao won hundreds of thousands of Tatar troops in one battle, although this cannot be all the Tatar troops, but it is definitely the majority, definitely the most core population of the Tatar department, and from now on the Tatar department will not have any chance to rise!
Speaking of which, Liu Juntao really wants to thank him, if it weren't for the fact that he was dizzy and mobilized his troops to the sweat tent, Liu Juntao really didn't have such good luck to pacify the Tatar Ministry in one battle.
"Order: The army will speed up and enter the tent of the Tatar Khan before this evening!"
"Order!"
In the afternoon of the same day, Liu Juntao led the main army of the Tiance Army to arrive at the Tatar Khan Tent, looking at the more than 400,000 Tatar troops who had been guarded separately, Liu Juntao and Hu Dexing and other generals and officials were in a good mood, and everyone had seen in their hearts the bright prospect of never having a war on the border between the country and the DPRK.
On the one hand, Liu Juntao ordered the soldiers of the army to set up camp in the area of the Tatar Khan's tent, and on the other hand, he gathered more than 400,000 Tatar troops and more than 50,000 Tatar prisoners.
Of course, Liu Juntao also mobilized five large armies of the Long Xiang Army, the Eagle Yang Army, the Trapping Army, the Tiger Ben Army, and the Zhichong Army to be on alert, mobilized the soldiers of the Vietnamese cavalry army to take care of all the livestock and materials in the Tatar sweat tent, and ordered the officers and men of the Changshui Army to guard the periphery of the Tatar sweat tent to prevent these Tatars from suddenly making trouble.
After that, Liu Juntao announced several orders in front of all the captives and Tatar troops.
First, more than 57,000 Tatar prisoners began to be reorganized from today, and they were reorganized into the front, center, and rear battalions on the left, and the forward, middle, and rear battalions on the right, with a total of six battalions of soldiers and horses.
Second, the six battalions of soldiers and horses that have been reorganized will serve as the servant army of the Tiance Army to fight for the Ming Dynasty, sweep the grassland desert with the Tiance Army, and surrender the rest of the grassland.
At this time, although the Tatar tribe had been defeated, there were still dozens or hundreds of tribes large and small on the steppe.
But at this time, Liu Juntao will never allow these Hu people to be at both ends of the rat.
Third, Liu Juntao decided to escort all the 400,000 Tatar troops to the south and send them to Datong Town and the rest of Shanxi to work as coolies, working in workshops and tunzhuang everywhere.
According to Liu Juntao's plan, when these Tatar subordinates are working, if they are down-to-earth and willing to work, they will have corresponding points, and the wages will naturally not be considered; When these tribesmen accumulate a certain level of points, they can regain their freedom and fend for themselves on the border, or simply return to the grasslands.
Of course, the premise is that these people are not tired to death, and they still have the life to go back!
Fourth, if these servant troops make meritorious contributions in battle, they can also accumulate a certain number of points, which can be counted among their relatives, so that the relatives can accumulate enough points as soon as possible and be free as soon as possible.
This point is very obvious, Liu Juntao used these more than 400,000 Tatar troops as hostages, pushing the more than 50,000 Tatar servant troops to move forward bravely, and shed the last drop of blood for Daming!
After these orders were announced, all the Tatar tribesmen wept quietly, everyone knew that their fate would become extremely miserable, but fortunately, they left their lives temporarily, but they didn't know if the so-called points would be easy to obtain, and when they and their families would be able to accumulate enough points.
And the more than 50,000 Tatar servants were also agitated, and everyone was worried about their families on the one hand, and on the other hand, they were a little eager to try.
These Tatars were fierce and fierce, and when they heard that they could help their families regain their freedom as soon as possible, almost all the servants wanted to start the war as soon as possible, aiming their swords at the rest of the tribes, and at the Hu tribe like themselves.
In the next few days, for the sake of insurance, Liu Juntao also deliberately transferred 1,000 soldiers from all departments of the Tiance Army to enrich the six battalions of servant troops as officers and fully control this army.
At the end of June of the seventh year of Tianshun, Liu Juntao ordered the general Yan Hu to lead the soldiers of the Yingyang Army to garrison the Kha Tent of the Tatar Department, and used the Kha Tent as a stronghold for the army's grain and grass to be transferred north, and asked Zhang Yuqing to immediately order in the name of the army, ordering the Shanxi Governor's Mansion and the General Military Office of Datong Town to immediately mobilize craftsmen and money and grain, and prepare to build a small city in the Khaden Tent of the Tatar Department as a stronghold for the Ming army to permanently occupy the desert.
At the same time, Liu Juntao also asked the Shanxi Governor's Office, together with the acting king and the prefect of Datong, to recruit people from all over Datong and Shanxi, and go north to live in the Tatar sweat tent to enrich the border defense.
Moreover, Liu Juntao directly renamed the Tatar Khan Tent to Hanhai City!
After dealing with these, Liu Juntao took the six battalions of servant troops as the forerunner, and the Tiance Army Long Xiang Army, the Changshui Army, the Tiger Ben Army, the Trap Army, the Yue Cavalry Army, and the Zhichong Army as the backup, set off from Hanhai City to the north and began to sweep the desert.
Together with the servant army, Liu Juntao led an army of nearly 200,000 people all the way to the Kenthan Mountain, crossed the Aruhun River and the Xilinggo River, and swept the vast grasslands east and north of the Hangai Mountain.
Since then, the army has fought fierce battles with more than 40 steppe tribes, large and small, and fought more than 100 battles.
In every battle, Liu Juntao commanded the servant army to take the lead, and then commanded all units of the Tiance Army to encircle and annihilate.
After a fierce battle, more than 50,000 servants lost more than 10,000 people, and all the troops were exhausted, but the morale of the army was miraculously still high, and all the Tatars fought endlessly for their relatives to be free as soon as possible.
The officers and men of the Tiance Army did not suffer many casualties, only more than 100 casualties.
Then, Liu Juntao led the army to the west, along the Hangai Mountain all the way to the west, the east bank of the Azuli Haizi encountered the Hu people's coalition army, because the Ming army continued to attack and kill all the way, so that all the Hu people were extremely terrifying.
In particular, the Ming army began to build cities and immigrants in the tent of the Tatar Khan, so that all the Hu people understood that this time the Ming army went north into the desert and was different from the previous dynasties, and this time the Ming army wanted to occupy the desert permanently!
As a result, the remaining Hu tribes all gathered, and together they gathered an army of 60,000 iron cavalry, and fought a bloody battle with the soldiers of the Tiance Army on the east bank of the Azuli Haizi.
Ahead, more than 40,000 servant troops fought to the death and did not retreat, but in the face of the Hu coalition army, which had been broken, the servant army gradually could not resist.
Seeing this, Liu Juntao immediately ordered the officers and men of the Changshui Army to start charging and fully support the servant army, the officers and men of the Longxiang Army were stationed in the middle army, and the officers and soldiers of the rest of the armies were outflanked on the left and right, and began to encircle and annihilate the Hu coalition army!
"Hu no one!" Liu Juntao shouted wildly in the Chinese army.
The officers and men of the Long Xiang Army were in high spirits, and they all raised their weapons and shouted: "Han Daochang! ”
"Hu no one!"
"Han Daochang!"
For a time, hundreds of thousands of Tiance soldiers roared angrily, and the sound of victory rushed straight to the clouds!
Under the leadership of General Zhou Zongsheng, the officers and men of the Changshui Army directly broke through the battlefield with the three-eyed gun, and then rushed into the Hu coalition army and killed the Quartet.
The rest of the soldiers of the Tiance army were also divided into two ways to fight into the battlefield, for a time the battlefield situation reversed, the Hu coalition army was defeated and retreated, only half an hour to collapse into an army, most of the 60,000 iron cavalry were annihilated, and the rest were scattered!
After this battle, all the tribes on the grassland no longer dared to confront the Ming army, and fled to the north and west.
Liu Juntao also did not hesitate, with the servant army as the guide, deep into the desert, grassland all the way to chase and kill, those defeated tribes, once the men were captured, their right thumb was all ordered by Liu Juntao to cut off, the people in the middle of the clan were sent to Datong Town as slaves, these new captives after reorganization, all organized into a new servant army, to supplement the troops.
