Chapter 49: Where to go

"Woo------" Maham knelt on the ground, holding the head of Huthagar, and wept in a low voice like a child, lest he attract the attention of the enemy. He hated his own carelessness and incompetence, and he also hated the meanness of Arutai, Tieleba and others, but what was the use of it when it came to this?

In front of Mahamu was a Jingguan composed of more than 100 male heads, all of whom were his cronies, as well as right-hand men such as Huthaga, Balu, Chagan, Agoura, and so on. They followed themselves from the distant Altai Mountains to Lake Bell, followed them from birth to death, and made great contributions. However, when the sun rose, these loyal and brave subordinates were executed in public by Tieleba and Arutai in the name of colluding with the Ming army and killing the Great Khan......

Just yesterday, they were still alive, all of them were high-spirited and full of vitality; But as the night passed, all they had left was their heads. And all this is caused by one's own carelessness; Not only that, but the opportunity to return to the grassland that Huthaga gave him with his life was just a bubble in the water.

After Mahamu escaped from the camp by luck, he immediately collected stragglers and fled westward, intending to return to the grassland as soon as possible. But before Mahamu could go far, he was ambushed, and it turned out that Arutai had not only arranged for his troops to besiege the main camp, but also set up an ambush on the road to the west.

When the shouts of killing rang out and the rain of arrows fell, the remnants of the soldiers that Mahamu had painstakingly collected immediately collapsed, and most of them fled with their lives, not caring for their own leader at all. In the end, under the desperate protection of several henchmen, Mahamu escaped from the encirclement, but only two of Mahamu's subordinates followed, and the rest did not know where to go.

Like a frightened bird, Mahamu did not dare to go west, but went around in a large circle, approached the camp from the east, observed the situation, and happened to see the scene of Huthaga and others being killed. What made Mahamu cry and laugh was that Arutai actually said that he Mahamu colluded with the Ming army and intended to subvert the Great Mongolia, which is simply a joke in the world, and he is the concubine of the Golden Family, how can he do such a thing?

Seeing his subordinates fall in a pool of blood one by one, Mahamu clenched his steel teeth and kept grasping the ground with both hands, not feeling that his ten fingers had been worn out, and the blood stained the ground red; And the Rising Sun and Zhuo Ri Getu beside him were also red-eyed, holding steel knives with both hands, eager to rush out and fight with the enemy and die with their comrades.

However, they can't, they now not only want to save their own lives, but also to save the future of Zakmin's Anbu, if Mahami dies, then Zakmin's Anbu will be finished, because Mahamu's only son Tuhuan is just five years old, and he can't support the sky of Zakmin's Anbu at all.

After Arutai and the others pulled out the camp, Mahamu did not come out, but waited, waited, and waited for half an hour before Mahamu rushed out of his hiding place, holding the heads of his loyal subordinates and weeping bitterly; And the same is true of Rising Sun and Zhuo Zhigetu, who wiped the blood from the faces of their comrades with trembling hands, combed their braids, and kissed their foreheads......

In the end, the three of them worked together, intending to dig a deep pit and bury the heads of their comrades, so that they would not be in the wilderness.

However, as soon as he dug for a short while, the rising sun, who was in charge of guarding, shouted: "Donkey, someone is coming, go quickly!" ”

Mahamu and Zhuozhigetu were shocked, and they hurriedly mounted their horses and looked out, and saw a large brigade of cavalry on the western horizon, obviously in Mongol clothing. Ma Hamu glanced twice, but did not panic, but looked back at Jingguan not far away, sighed, and ran east.

But before they had run a few miles, a large group of cavalry appeared on the east, shouting and rushing at them, and Mahamu and the others had to turn their horses and go south; Seeing this, Arutai's cavalry also hurriedly turned around and continued to pursue......

Mahamu is not a mediocre talent, whether it is leadership, affinity, or even military command ability, he is outstanding, but perhaps because of his youth, he has a fatal weakness, that is, simplicity; This is still a little different from Mahamu in another time and space, where Mahamu because of the early death of his father Haohai Dayu, he supported a tribe alone at a young age, he had to become mature and forbearing, coupled with his outstanding military talent, so that he achieved a great feat, although he was defeated by Zhu Di, but his son Tuhuan and his grandson were also the enemies of the Ming Dynasty, and even captured the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, ------- Yingzong Zhu Qizhen; But now Mahamu, his father is still a favorite of the Great Khan, and the Zakmin is much stronger than before; In addition, he is both a great khan and a warat, so whether it is the golden family or warat, he treats him as his own person, so he is used to it, and he doesn't have much to figure out people's hearts.

Arutai is different, he is nearly ten years older than Mahamu, he has been in the world for a long time, and he has been scheming deeply. Moreover, the Asout tribe was not actually a Mongol, but a servant army brought back from Persia and the Arab generation during the Mongol expedition to the west; Because they were brave and good at fighting, they were chosen to be the Great Khan's army, but their high-eyed and deep-eyed appearance was always criticized and despised by ordinary Mongols. All this made Arutai very careful, trying to gain fame and status through allegiance to the Great Khan, but in his heart he very much hoped that his tribe would become an independent tribe in the Mongolian steppe, without the need to look at people's faces.

When Mahamu's confidant Meng En came to deliver the letter, Arutai immediately judged three things: first, the number of Ming troops coming from the old land of Uliangha would not be very large, otherwise they would have pounced long ago; Second, something must have happened in the grassland, and it is a major event, otherwise it would be impossible to explain why a mere 10,000 cavalry could enter a no-man's land; Thirdly, this is an opportunity, a good opportunity for the Asut tribe to grow and even become independent.

Among the three eastern tribes, Horqin has the longest history and the strongest strength, but in recent years, Mahamu's Zakmin'an tribe has sprung up, and its power not only surpasses the Asut tribe, but is even comparable to the Horqin tribe. All this not only worried Arutai, but also caused the dissatisfaction of Tieleba, the young leader of the Korqin tribe.

But Arutai did not state his judgment, but insisted on Mun's lying, and demanded that it be verified before making a decision; At that time, Mahamu was struggling with how to convince everyone, how to go south or retreat west.

After the discussion, Arutai secretly went to see Tieleba, explained his analysis, and then patted his chest to show his support for him to be a great sweater. Tieleba was a little scared at first, but he couldn't withstand Arutai's persuasion, so he decided to start an incident immediately and kill Mahamu. In order to ensure that nothing went wrong, Tielepa sent someone to invite Su Mu to the account, hoping to persuade him to attack Mahamu together, and then submit to himself, but unfortunately Su Mu refused. Tieleba wanted to kill Sumu, but was stopped by Arutai, so Sumu was imprisoned, and then the two summoned their Sumu's deputy general Kuba to discuss, fortunately, this Kuba was very sensible, and under the persuasion and analysis of Arutai, he betrayed Mahamu and threw himself into Tieleba.

So that night, the three armies jointly attacked Mahamu's camp and forced him to die. And Mahamu's subordinates were divided among three people, of which Tieleba took the lion's share. When the army marched, Kuba was the vanguard, Tiele was the central army, and Arutai was the rearguard.

At this moment, Arutai was riding on a horse and was listening to the report of a cavalryman beside him.

"Tell the chief, according to your plan, Un led the men back to the camp, and found Mahamu; However, he was also alert, and quickly mounted his horse and fled, and now Unn was chasing after him. ”

"And the lord also arranged Meng He in the east, Ma Hamu has already put his wings and can't escape, the lord is really wise!"

Listening to the flattery of his subordinates, Arutai's face was as usual, he stroked his beard lightly, and said: "This is easy to guess, Mahamu is not a simple character, after being ambushed, he will inevitably go to the vicinity of the camp to have a look; But even if we guess wrong, we don't have much to lose. ”

Speaking of this, Arutai suddenly made up his mind and said in a low voice: "Tara, you take a thousand cavalry, travel to the steppe under the stars, and you must go to the Zakmin'an Department to pick up Princess Samur." ”

"Princess Samur?" Tara was puzzled.

"Hehe, Mahamu is dead, Princess Samur and Tuohuanxian's nephew are too pitiful, I, Arutai, am willing to take care of her, as well as his tribe, isn't it good?"

Tara suddenly realized, and immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "My lord is really merciful, Zack Ming Anbu has the protection of adults, and he will definitely be grateful to Dade." The little one understands, and the little one does it immediately. ”

"Well, be careful all the way!"

"Yes!"

……

"What should I do?"

As he fled, Mahamu asked himself, now that there were only two people around him, but there were hundreds of pursuers, looking around, there were plains, how could he escape?

At this moment, something happened that made Mahamu desperate, and the smoke and dust of cavalry appeared in front of him......
