Chapter 380: Fleeing in embarrassment

When more than 20,000 Ming troops suddenly withdrew to the defensive line, the generals Arazhiyuan and the Great Khan also breathed a sigh of relief.

Although the Ming army insisted on pursuing and the armies of the two sides directly launched a decisive battle, the Wara army would not necessarily be defeated, but after the decisive battle, the army would definitely suffer heavy casualties.

Therefore, when the Ming army withdrew, they were relieved to be relieved by the first and Ah Ra Zhiyuan, and the two immediately led their troops to camp in situ, seize the time to rectify the army, and prepare to fight again.

At the same time, he also hurriedly sent someone to inform the king of Saikan a few miles away in the south, ordering him to defend the south tightly, even if Liu Juntao led the main force of the Ming army to kill, he must fight to the end to buy time for the main army to break through.

That night, the Great Khan also discussed countermeasures with the general Arazhiyuan overnight.

Since attacking the Ming army's defense line, the Wara army has never been able to break through the Ming army's defense line, so that the army has lost troops and lost its morale.

However, in the face of the current situation, the Great Khan also discussed with the general Ara's prefect for a long time, and the two of them had nothing to do, and in the face of the Ming army's ironclad defense line, both of them had a trace of despair in their hearts.

"Great Khan! In any case, our army will continue to attack tomorrow, and time is pressing, and we must not delay! ”

He frowned tightly and groaned for a long time before he said in a deep voice: "Okay! Tomorrow we will fight for another day, and if we still can't break through the Ming army's defense line, then we will take a detour north from Baishan Mountain! ”

Hearing this, Ah Razhiyuan's face suddenly turned pale.

The Warat army was not like the Ming army, most of the soldiers and horses were infantry, and they could quickly cross the mountains and mountains.

The vast majority of the soldiers and horses in the Warat army are iron horses, and if such an army of more than 100,000 people crosses the mountains and mountains, it will take a lot of time, not to mention, and it is very likely that they will be caught up by the Ming army.

Once the two sides start fighting in the mountains, the last advantage of the Navarat army in fast horses and strong bows will be completely lost!

Ah Zhiyuan's voice trembled a little and asked, "Great Khan! Have we really reached this point? ”

Ye Xian made a bitter face and said, "Isn't it? It is better to go over the mountains and mountains than to be attacked by the Ming army before and after, and the whole army will be wiped out here! ”

Ah Ra Zhiyuan closed his eyes in pain, and said sadly: "We gathered a large army to go south, and we were originally like a bamboo, why did we fight like this now!" ”

Hearing this, his face became extremely ugly, and he glared at Arazhiyuan fiercely, eager to eat it alive.

The next day, the general Arazhiyuan immediately gathered 40,000 troops and prepared to attack the Ming defense line again.

These 40,000 troops are the most elite and daring soldiers and horses in the Wara army, and Arazhiin and Ya are also desperate this time.

But before the 40,000 troops could attack, a team of Warat horses hurriedly rushed into the camp, rushing towards the big tent of the Chinese army, and the Warat soldiers and horses along the way did not dare to stop them!

The Great Khan, who was transferring troops and horses near the big tent of the Chinese army, also saw this with the general Ala, and they were all shocked, and the two looked at each other, and a trace of ominous premonition rose in their hearts.

"Great Khan! Liu Juntao, the general soldier of the Ming army, is leading an army of 60,000 to the north, less than ten miles away from the army of the king of the magazine, and he will encounter the king of the competition tomorrow! ”

Hearing this, Ye Xian and Ah Ra Zhiyuan were sweating like rain, and both of them understood in their hearts that it was impossible to stop the 60,000 elite Ming troops with the 30,000 soldiers and horses under the Saikan King's department, and even the Saikan King couldn't hold out for even one or two days!

In other words, there is only one day left for Yaxian and Arazhiyuan to open the northbound passage!

However, at this time, was the Warat army able to break through the defensive line held by the 20,000 Ming troops in one day?

The answer is self-explanatory!

Since it was impossible to break through the defense line of the Ming army in one day, there was only one choice left for Yexian and Arazhiyuan to make.

It was also immediately decided that the army would stop attacking the Ming army's defense line, and immediately retreat north from the detour from Baishan Mountain, and at the same time immediately send fast horses to the south, and order the king of Saikan to lead his troops to retreat north from the detour of Lei Gong Mountain.

Immediately afterwards, the Warat camp suddenly blew up its nest, and tens of thousands of Warat troops packed up their bags, pulled out the camp and set off, heading towards Baishan Mountain in the east.

At this time, Yan Hu, the general on the mountain of the defense line, and Sun Xu, the general, both discovered the movement of the Wara army, and both of them were taken aback, and immediately sent several teams to rush out at night and go south to report to Liu Juntao.

Early the next morning, Liu Juntao, the chief military officer of Yanzhou Town, was leading his troops to march quickly, and on the way, he suddenly encountered Yan Hu and Sun Xu's soldiers who did not collect the army at night, and learned that the Wara army had fled in the direction of Baishan Mountain, and the two asked to lead the army to start a pursuit.

Liu Juntao couldn't help laughing: It seems that he can't fight anymore, and he has become a frightened bird at this time!

However, in the face of the situation at this time, Liu Juntao did not rush to order the pursuit, after all, he still understands the truth that the poor should not chase.

So after consideration, Liu Juntao ordered the staff general Yan Hu and the staff general Sun Xu to continue to lead the troops to garrison the defense line, and the soldiers of the two battalions were also exhausted after the battle, and it was difficult to ensure that they would not be bitten by the Tartars who jumped over the wall in a hurry.

However, Liu Juntao would never let the Warat army escape smoothly, so Liu Juntao sent the Iron Cavalry to pursue in the direction of Baishan Mountain.

At the same time, Liu Juntao led the main army to continue north.

When the army continued to march for more than an hour, they arrived at the camp where the Saikan Wang's headquarters were originally stationed, which was already empty at this time, and the Saikan Wang, after receiving the order from Yexian, also did not hesitate to lead his troops to flee in the direction of Lei Gong Mountain.

Liu Juntao did not stay too much again, but continued to lead his troops north, and two hours later, he led the main army to the Ming defense line, and successfully joined the front and rear camps of Yanzhou Town.

At the same time, the general Zhou Zongsheng led his troops to pursue for a whole day, and more than 5,000 iron cavalry soldiers armed with three-eyed guns always bit the tail of the Wara army, constantly harassing, assaulting, and covering up all the way, and captured more than 2,000 heads in one day.

Then, when the general Zhou Zongsheng saw that it was getting late, he led his army to give up the pursuit and led his troops to return victoriously.

It is said that when Zhou Zongsheng led his troops back to the Ming army's defense line, Liu Juntao led the army to camp here for three days, and the army sent more than 100 miles north at night, and never found any trace of the Wara army.

After the Great Khan also led the retreat with the king of Saikan, the two Warat armies fled in embarrassment in the mountains, many wounded soldiers did not receive timely treatment and died halfway, and many tribal soldiers and horses lost confidence in Warat and fled halfway, and for a time the strength of the Warat army was sharply reduced, and the morale became even more low!

A few days later, when the Great Khan Yexian, the general Arakzhi's institute and the Saikan Wang's department met on the grassland, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and the morale of the army could be regarded as a slight rebound.

However, when the army was encamped, the Great Khan also ordered all his troops to be counted immediately.

In the middle of the night, when the various units of the army gathered up the remaining forces, there were only more than 90,000 people left in the 200,000 Warat army.

Hearing this number, the king of the journal and the general Arazhiyuan were stunned, and the two of them looked at the Great Khan in a daze, like two wooden people.

And first of all, it was like being struck by lightning, and his mind was blank, he only felt a tingling pain in his chest, and felt a trace of fishy sweetness in his throat, and spit out a mouthful of black blood with a poof, which frightened Ah Ra Zhiyuan and the king of Saikan and rushed up to hold it up.

This time, the Warat army has lost more than half of its troops, and it can be said that Warat has been devastated!

From now on, the steppe will no longer be the world of Warat, and many Hu tribes such as Tatars and Jurchens will rush up and use all kinds of methods to suppress Warat, so that Warat will completely decay!

Thinking of this, Yexian's heart was full of unwillingness and despair.

"I am the Great Khan of Warat! It's the Great Khan of the vast steppe! Even if I am defeated, I will not allow anyone to rebel against me and against Warat! ”

I also cheered myself up in my heart first, and my chest with severe pain seemed to be smoother.

At this time, the king of Saikan asked in a voice that was almost crying: "Great Khan! What are we going to do? ”

Although Ah Ra Zhiyuan did not speak, his eyes were full of helplessness and anticipation when he looked at Yexian.

"Go back! Even if I only have these 90,000 troops left in my hands, I can still overwhelm the tribes, and I can still make Warat rise again! ”
