Chapter 243: The True Goal
When the Tatar army reached the Qing River, it suspended its advance and set up camp there.
Babur, the king of the Southern Courtyard, led the main force to camp here, and the forward Aoki Lin sent troops and horses to disperse to various places and began to raise grain, grass, and military expenses.
The so-called raising, in fact, is to rob. Why don't they bother to talk to these Han people?
This time, Babur personally served as the commander and led 100,000 cavalry to attack Dade.
After a fake battle with Yunguang in Ping'an Prefecture, he entered the Mogu Desert.
At Shanshui Pass, he encountered the resistance of Wending River, the king of Dongping.
Each side sent 2,000 men and horses to fight a battle, and there was no difference between victory and defeat. Wen Dinghe got out of the way.
When the two sides had a tacit understanding, Babur threw off the Wending River, bypassed the Shanshui Pass, and entered the territory of the Mogu people.
Previously, Aoki Lin had reached an agreement with the Mogu people, and this time he put aside his hatred and went to Dade to make a profit together.
The Mogu people couldn't defeat the Tatars in the first place, but now that the 100,000 army is overpowering, and they also want to loot Dade, the two sides hit it off and decided to act together.
As for the feud between the two sides, under the immediate interests, it can be put aside first.
"This time, the commander of Dade is Guan Tingzhi, the secretary of the military department, and the supervisor is Xia Shouzhong, known as 250,000 horses."
Xia Banshan had just returned from outside and was briefing Babur.
This time, Xia Banshan also secretly returned to Dade.
He went one step ahead of the Tatar army, and came back to mobilize his lurking eyes and ears to gather the military intelligence of the Great Virtue.
"Two hundred and fifty thousand horses? That's a lot. ”
Babur scoffed.
Along the way, he met many great virtuous people, but basically they were all in the city and passes. Along the way, there was almost no resistance, and he successfully arrived in Shenjing.
"It's just a number. The Great German army has been corrupted, and there is at least 30 percent of the vacancies, at most 100,000 people, and less than 50 percent of those who can fight tough battles. ”
"How's this going to be?"
"He is just a literati, although he is a secretary of the military department, but he does not know how to march and fight. If it is about the ability to fight, among these people, it is still the Jingying Festival that makes Wang Ziteng the most capable. ”
"I don't know why, I didn't let Wang Ziteng be the commander, but sent a literati."
"Hehe, this great virtue is also really interesting, send a literati who doesn't know how to fight as a commander, and send a eunuch who doesn't know how to fight to supervise the army."
"This Sheng Long is also a fool, if he doesn't believe in the generals in the army, he will send a trustworthy commander to be the commander. Now that this arrangement is made, it is simply that Changshengtian is helping us. ”
"This is the great king of Hong Fu Qitian. This time it must be, no, it has already succeeded. ”
"Hahaha, thanks to Mr. Xia's great help. I remember your work. However, there is one more thing that Mr. Xia can help with. ”
"The king commands."
"Go out and spread the news, just say that we are going to attack Shenjing City."
"Is the king really going to attack the city?"
"Although Dade's soldiers and horses are as timid as rats, if they attack their capital, they will definitely resist desperately."
"Although we are not afraid of them, we will surely suffer heavy casualties. This time it's cheaper for them. ”
Xia Banshan quickly understood what Babur meant.
This is to contain the soldiers and horses of the great virtue, so that they do not dare to act rashly and come to attack.
In this way, there is kung fu to calmly loot in the Gyeonggi area.
The things looted along the way, plus the rich Zhili area, are also enough to loot.
Not long after Xia Banshan went out, Aoki Lin came in.
"Where is the Mogu people at this time?"
"They occupy the county seat of Wanping, and they are drinking and eating meat there at the moment."
"Heh, these guys still have some ability, and they captured Wanping so quickly."
"It's not that they have the ability. Most of the Great German troops and civilians in Wanping ran away, and no one resisted at all, and they occupied an empty city. ”
"Except for some old and weak, there are not even a few people."
"Where's our people?"
"Borda occupies Liangxiang, and Muhuaro occupies Tongzhou ......."
"What's going on over there?"
"The scout has returned, Wen Fengtian with 10,000 people, Yunguang with 5,000 people, and Wang Ziteng with 13,000 people are moving this way."
"The governor of Zhili, Lu Fengyu, has led his troops back to defend the Shenjing City. The other soldiers and horses, Guan Tingzhi and Xia Shouzhong, were still in the area of Xiaonanzhuang and did not move. ”
Babur pondered for a moment, then smiled.
"It is said that the prince Tengpo is good at using soldiers, so you can teach him a lesson and give him a little bit of power. From then on, they were not afraid to act rashly. ”
"Even Wang Ziteng has suffered a loss, and others don't dare to come out easily."
"Wen Fengtian and Yunguang are ...... there."
Although Wen Fengtian has some skills, he is young after all. Although Wen Dinghe called him to lead the army, he also asked two veterans to follow. ”
"If he wants to fight to the death with us, he will fight hard when he is in the Shanshui Pass, where is the need to wait until today?"
"They are just making a show and giving Sheng Long an explanation. In order to preserve strength, I won't really come up and fight hard. ”
"I'll tell Huhar to take care of them in the back, just contain them."
"The king sees it, I will go and teach the prince a lesson, and I will start a war with him tomorrow."
"If it hurts Wang Ziteng, others don't dare to come forward, so that our people can catch people and find things."
According to Babur's plan, even if he approaches the capital of Dade, he will not fight with the Dade people.
This time, the main goal is to grab people and things, and it is the most ideal to be able to get things back without bloodshed.
No matter how weak Dade is, after all, there are many people, and if you really fight, you will lose a lot of people.
When it's really time to kill the red eye, there are not many of the 100,000 people left.
It's better to beat the other party into fear, so that you can let go and grab things.
Gyeonggi has a wide area, unlike the population concentration of Shenjing City, and the people are hidden, and the walls are clear. It's also not easy to find things.
This means that we must break up our own troops and horses and act separately.
If you don't frighten the Dade people, they will also divide their troops to attack, and their scattered people are likely to be eaten by each one.
"The king is really clever, and his subordinates admire him."
"This is nothing, in order to convince the people of Great Virtue that we are going to attack the city, I have to get closer to Shenjing City."
"Tomorrow I will pull out the village and camp near Shenjing City. Tell the athletes to make ladders, crash cars, and practice siege to confuse them. ”
"You go, be careful with Wang Ziteng."
When Aoki Lin went out, he returned to his camp with the guards and arranged things to meet Wang Ziteng.
Not long after, Butler and Tug returned to say goodbye.
"Wang Ziteng is stationed in the vicinity of the Three Elm Trees, with a total of 18,000 men. Among them, there were 6,000 cavalry and 12,000 infantry. ”
"Eighteen thousand? Where did he come from so many people? ”
"Caught them and interrogated them by a scout."
"Where is Wen Fengtian?"
"Thirty miles north of the prince. The clouds were thirty-five miles to the west. ”
It's so far away, it seems that I really want to see the excitement.
Otherwise, it shouldn't have been stationed so scattered.
In this way, it is only enough to deal with Wang Ziteng.
Hmph, Wang Ziteng, don't say that you don't have to have 18,000 people, even if you do, my 20,000 iron horsemen will still be afraid of you.
"Get all the commanders in the meeting."
It didn't take long for twenty commanders and grain and grass officers to arrive.
Aoki Lin conveyed the order of the king of the southern courtyard, and as soon as everyone heard that there was going to be a battle tomorrow, they immediately became energetic.
There were hardly any decent battles along the way, and they were already a little depressed.
Now that I finally have the opportunity, not only can I go on a killing spree, but I can also grab a lot of things and make military achievements, just waiting for this moment.
"Captain Wan, rest assured, tomorrow will kill the Great Virtue people without leaving a piece of armor."
"Yes, take that prince alive, and I'll torture him a bit."
Seeing everyone's emotions coming up, Aoki Lin waved his hand.
"Tomorrow at the end of the day, at the end of the day, to defeat the Great German army, and capture Wang Ziteng alive."
"Alright, Captain Wan, it's up to us."
The crowd clamoured again.
