"What? Huang Taiji dares to incorporate the Chahar Department? Wang Junzhuo almost jumped up from his seat, his fists clenched, his eyes radiated a breathtaking light, blood red, he came over for a long time, and said: "Dadu Governor, once you have a decisive battle with the Jurchens, your subordinates will ask for the front!" ”

As soon as Wang Junzhuo said this, Gao Yigong couldn't sit still, although he was a Han, but the cavalry under him were all herdsmen from the original Chahar Department, and in front of the enemy, it was a feud, how could he be willing to lag behind? Hurriedly arched his hand to Li Zicheng, "The Metropolitan Governor, his subordinates also ask for the front!" ”

Li Guobu's cavalry are all Han Chinese, not the kind of nomads who grew up on horseback since childhood, and the skills of riding and archery cannot compete with the nomadic cavalry at all, but in front of the Metropolitan Governor, he has always been desperate, so he rushed to stand up, "The Metropolitan Governor, the second battalion under his subordinates, also asks to be the vanguard!" ”

"Hahaha......" Li Zicheng looked up to the sky and laughed, "You are all the elite of the cavalry of the Heavenly Mandate Army, if you want to defeat the Jurchens, the Pontus Governor naturally relies on you!" ”

Wang Junzhuo also stood up and arched his hand to Li Zicheng, "Governor, give the order, the brothers under your subordinates, you can't wait!" ”

"According to the governor of Pontus, you can't wait, right?" Li Zicheng pointed at Wang Junzhuo's head with his hand, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, the woman is naturally here, and the governor of Pontus will never let them go back easily, now, let's discuss what strategy to adopt......

After some discussion, before they knew it, the sky was already dark, and it was not until Li Zicheng's personal soldiers had dinner that the four of them felt hungry.

Li Zicheng finished dinner, left Gao Yigong's big tent, and went to Zhou Bin and Song Wenbu to investigate, and asked them to arrange more soldiers on duty before returning to the camp to rest.

After the next morning, the wolf cavalry sent a large number of rangers, with small flags as a unit, deep into the Jurchen defense area, provoking in every way, once they encountered the Jurchen rangers, as long as the number of people was superior, they would definitely catch up and kill.

The Jurchens couldn't, so they changed their habits and increased the number of rangers in each group, and the two sides fought from time to time, and they faced each other for a day, and they hurt each other.

By night, the Jurchen rangers were very tired, most of them collected their troops and returned to the camp, only in the place near the camp gate where the feather arrows guarded, leaving a small number of rangers, and when the night came, the open field was their blind spot, as long as the other party did not move, the Jurchen rangers would not take the initiative to attack.

The wolf cavalry's rangers also returned to the camp to rest, but the Mandate of Heaven did not stop there.

Li Guo's second battalion, all of which were authentic Han Chinese, at night, although the vision was blocked, it had little impact, unlike the nomads, and the soldiers had night blindness.

The rangers of the second battalion were still using small flags as units, and under the guidance of the hazy moonlight, they were still approaching the Jurchen camp step by step, harassing the Jurchen camp from a long distance with arrows.

When the Jurchens sent a small force of cavalry out of the camp to pursue, Li Guobu's rangers retreated en masse and quickly disappeared into the vast night.

As soon as the Jurchen cavalry returned to the camp, Li Guobu's rangers surrounded them like earth dogs, and their arrogance was extremely arrogant, and they even avoided the Jurchen guards in the direction of the camp gate and struggled to release rockets to the Jurchen camp.

They didn't dare to get too close, it was difficult for the rockets to directly hit the Jurchen camp, and in order not to become the target of the Jurchens, the number of rockets would not be too much, most of them were just cold shots, which had little impact on the Jurchen camp.

However, the dog-like second battalion rangers soon angered the Jurchens, and the soldiers reported the message to Dolgon, "Lord Belle, the enemy outside, send rangers to harass from time to time!" ”

"Harassment? What do you eat? "Dolgon had already slept, for he was in the tent of the Chinese army, far from the edge of the camp, and did not know what had happened.

"Lord Belle......" The herald said: "But when we leave the camp tent and leave the fire in the camp, our eyes can't see clearly, and the brothers don't dare to leave ......the camp at all."

"Don't dare to leave the camp?" Dolgon kicked the herald over, "When did the cavalry of the Dajin Kingdom cower in the camp tent and let others bully you...... There's nothing, not even a Han dog is as good as ......" Seeing that the herald struggled to get up, he kicked him in the buttocks again, "Why don't you prepare the torch?" ”

The herald fell at the door, rolled over, and came to the outside of the account, "Yes, Lord Belle, the villain will go to herald ......"

In a moment, a group of Jurchen cavalry, armed with torches, opened the camp gate and broke into the moonlight.

The rangers of the second battalion saw that there were more than a thousand Jurchens, and they hurriedly turned their horses' heads, turned their heads and ran, and disappeared into the night like earth dogs.

The Jurchen cavalry chased for a while, where is there still the shadow of the enemy? I had to let go of the feather arrows for a while, and went back scolding.

It was still early in the morning, and the rangers of the second battalion went and returned, and they were arrogant around the Jurchen tent, but they did not dare to get too close, lest the Jurchens would attack at any time.

The Jurchen soldiers who kept vigil saw that the enemy did no harm to their own side, except for their eyes wide open and occasionally babbling a few times, and they let them make trouble.

When the rangers of the second battalion saw that the Jurchens ignored them, they became more and more emboldened, and as before, they not only made a loud noise, but also fired several rockets from time to time, although the rockets did not fall on the barracks, but set fire to the grass outside the camp tent, and once it spread, it was not sure that the fence of the camp would be burned.

The Jurchen soldiers on duty were furious, but they knew that it was not worth sending a large number of cavalry to expel them, and the Baylors had already fallen asleep, and he did not dare to wake them up, so he returned to the barracks and encouraged a cavalry of more than 100 men to attack again with torches.

The Jurchens also knew that it was impossible to completely wipe out the rangers outside, and the night was always helping them......

However, it was always necessary to drive the enemy outside farther away, and when the Jurchens came out of the camp, they galloped wildly, looking for the sound of horses' hooves in front, and pursued them for more than ten miles in one go.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh......"

The night was dark and the wind was quiet, and the sound of the bowstring was particularly harsh, and several Jurchen cavalrymen fell from their horses and fell on the sand, letting out a terrible scream......

"It's not good, there are ambushes!"

By the time the Jurchen soldiers reacted, they didn't know how many soldiers had fallen from their horses, and in a hurry, the remaining cavalry turned around, and the horse's head was facing outward, almost forming a circle, and they threw torches, and they didn't aim, but only shot at the shadow with arrows.

The neighing sound of the war horses proved that the Jurchen cavalry's riding and archery skills were not blown, but fortunately, the rangers of the second battalion had already left their horses and used the bodies of the war horses as cover one by one......

The sounds of people and horses calling back and forth, in the silence of the night, look particularly terrifying.

The soldiers of the second battalion did not retreat, although they regarded their war horses as treasures, but in exchange for the lives of the enemy soldiers, they were worth dying!

The Jurchen cavalry shot most of the arrows in the quiver, and the leading cavalry saw that it was not a problem, so they hurriedly roared loudly, turned their horses away, and did not even want the torches thrown on the ground......

After tossing for most of the night, the Jurchens suffered many casualties, and they no longer dared to go out of the camp to pursue, so they could only curl up behind the camp tent and let the enemy shout and shout in the distance.

The Jurchens have always been arrogant, and on the steppe, whether it is the Ming army or the same nomadic Mongolian cavalry, they don't pay attention to it, but tonight ......

The rangers of the second battalion made trouble until dawn, and then they collected their troops and went back to rest, and the rangers were replaced by Tiger Cavalrymen.

During the day, the Jurchens would resume fighting, and only these people who were born nomads were the real opponents of the Jurchens!

The soldiers were casual, and Dolgon was also ignorant, where was the sacredness on the other side? Why did you not retreat when you saw the cavalry of the Dajin Kingdom, but also shouted like a dog?

After consulting with Yueto, Sakhalian, and Hauge, he sent an envoy and sent a letter of war to the other side.

Li Zicheng was wandering outside the camp, coming out to bask in the sun, in fact, he was checking the terrain, and when he passed by Dam Mountain and Hada Mountain, his heart didn't move!

Dam Mountain and Hada Mountain should be regarded as the remaining veins of Wolf Mountain, but they are independent peaks, and there is a sandy area between them and the main vein of Wolf Mountain.

The peaks are not high, but on the flat sandy ground, they appear quite abrupt.

To the south, Mount Hatta, at a lower altitude and no more than 300 meters, is densely wooded, with shrubs and pastures on the slopes and grass on the sand at the foot of the mountain connecting into a complete shade.

Li Zicheng had just returned to the camp, and Gao Yigong hurriedly came to report: "The Grand Du, the Jurchens have sent a messenger!" ”

"Emissary?" Li Zicheng was stunned, "Do they want to negotiate peace?" There was a disdainful sneer on his face, "Where is the messenger?" ”

"Dadu Governor, the Jurchens are not here to negotiate peace, but to issue a war letter!" Gao Yigong said: "The envoy is in the camp next door, and he has been here for half an hour, do you want to see the governor?" ”

Afternoon? Li Zicheng really didn't expect that soldiers would not get tired of deceit, and they would fight when they fought, so what kind of war letter did they give? Do you have to use cavalry on the battlefield to fight it out?

However, this is also good, the Mandate of Heaven army came from afar, and the supply in the rear was difficult, unlike the nomads, in the steppe, everywhere was their home field.

It seems that the "coyote" tactics used by the various rangers in turn may be annoying to Dolgon!

Li Zicheng asked the translator to translate the contents of the war book, pondered for a moment, took the war book from his hand, and marked the eight characters on it: "When the sun comes, under the dam mountain", he will send the envoy back.

The envoy packed up the war book, but did not leave, "Dadu Governor, Lord Belle asked the villain to ask, where are you soldiers and horses, and why do you want to go against the Dajin Kingdom?" ”

Listening to the words of the translator, Li Zicheng smiled faintly and said: "It doesn't matter who we are, we also don't know who you are, on the grassland, everyone pays attention to strength, tomorrow's battle, if you win, you will naturally know who we are, if you fail, please go back." ”

The envoy glanced at Li Zicheng, didn't say a word, stepped on the war horse and turned to leave.

When Dolgon heard the rumors of the messenger, he was very unhappy, in front of the Great Golden Kingdom, there were still such people who did not know whether to live or die?

Thankfully, they've already given the go-ahead for tomorrow's showdown.

This is the opportunity for Yang Wei, the cavalry of the Dajin Kingdom, what the Dadu Governor said is right, who they are, it really doesn't matter, a group of dead people will not hinder the Dajin State cavalry after all!

He immediately sent an order to Yue Tuo and Sakhalian: Tomorrow, 3,000 cavalry with red flags will be the vanguard of the decisive battle and take the lead in attacking the enemy camp!
