Chapter 368: Duoyan

Duoyan Sanwei was originally the common name of the three pro-Ming tribes in Mongolia, but after the Zhengde period, the world said Duoyan Sanwei, often only talking about Duoyan and not anything else.

After the Zhengde period, from the border of Xuanhua to the Taer River Basin, the grassland area near the border of the Ming Dynasty was all beaten down by the Duoyan leader Huadang, and the power was extremely inflated, but the people who got along with the Ming Dynasty were quite friendly, and the Tatar Mongolia went south several times, and the Duoyan Department at least did not help it.

But after entering the Jiajing period, the days of the Mongolian tribes close to the Ming Dynasty became more and more difficult, especially after ten years of Jiajing, the Duoyan tribe was originally friendly with the Ming Dynasty most of the time, but there were also bad deeds of entering the customs and looting, fortunately, there were not many, but now it is often looted by the Ming army and the reclamation manor outside the Guan, the original Taining Wei Mongolia near the Taer River Valley, was defeated by the slave hunting team organized by the manor outside the Guan.

The power of the Duoyan tribe has also shrunk from the north all the way, and now it is only in an area between Jizhen and Liaodong, so when the Bandi Khan of the Tile Spur Mongolia organized a large army to prepare to occupy the Guanwai, in previous years, this kind of thing was encountered by the Duoyan Department who reported to the Ming Dynasty, this time quietly.

On the contrary, it was arranged to take refuge in their own tribe of the Tainingwei Mongols to lead the way, when the Ming army in the pass was in full array, Duoyan said that he was willing to play the vanguard for the Ming army, according to the convention, and could not run errands in vain, so he got a lot of weapons and grain and grass supplies.

They also planned that if the Mongol side of the tile spur was victorious, they would immediately act as a vanguard and a leader here, or go out of the customs to join them, or be a leader of the way.

As for those people outside the pass who would win, they didn't expect at all that the 60,000 Mongol army, which has not been organized for decades, has not been organized for decades, and what the leaders and nobles of the Duoyan Department have done in the past few months is to desperately ask for supplies and equipment from the Ming army defending the pass, anyway, this wealth will not be in vain.

The most unexpected thing happened, the 60,000-strong army disappeared in the Tar River valley, and the so-called Bandi Khan, under the protection of his own cavalry, desperately ran back to Western Mongolia. The remaining tribes either disappeared or survived the winter on the steppes as usual.

What kind of force is there outside the pass, how can it do this, and fight the 60,000 Mongol army like this, Duoyan Mongol also sent its own horse team to collect some scattered other tribes, but many people did not even fight with the enemy, but they knew that a fire suddenly burned on the mountains on both sides of the Taal River valley, and many soldiers were directly burned to death on the mountain.

Then the whole Bandi Khan's brigade began to break up, and many of them either fell into the rushing Thar River or were trampled to death.

Such news made the top brass of the Duoyan tribe shudder, but they did not know whether to call the decision smart or stupid, and the Duoyan Mongols decided to block the news so that they could continue to ask for more money and supplies from the Ming army in the pass.

Although the grassland is vast, but not all places can be trafficked, the Duoyan Mongols have been on the grassland for many years, and there are nearly 10,000 warriors under them, so it is not a problem to do this, not to mention the defeat of the Tile Mongols, but it gave the leader of the Duoyan Mongols, Wuert, a chance.

The Ults wanted to gather these scattered tribes under their command, and in just two years on the steppe, the two most qualified forces to become khans fell, did the Han people say that the "Mandate of Heaven" came to their own bodies?

Most of Duoyanwei is stationed in Xiaoxingzhou, which is about 130 miles, Xiaoxingzhou is stationed with 4,000 soldiers from Jizhen, the reason why it is so close is that it is also the rule of previous years, and the various tribes of the steppe outside the Great Wall are different from the various tribes in the steppe who accumulate grain and grass in the autumn, or loot the Han land to obtain winter supplies, Duoyan's large income is as a middleman merchant between the Ming Dynasty and other Mongolian tribes.

In winter, they often set up near the border towns of the Ming Dynasty, stockpiling trade supplies for the coming year on the one hand, and providing supplies for the winter by purchasing.

Centered on the direct tribes and pro-army of the Ult, there are about 10,000 people living here, large and small tents and shacks, as well as cattle pens and sheep pens, etc., which constitute this semi-fixed living place. In the big tent of the Ult in the center, the heads of Duoyan are gathered there to discuss.

"These days, the envoy who went to Jizhen to ask for supplies came back and said that the Ming army was quite strange, and all the generals who dealt with it seemed to have something on their minds."

"Are we going to have our money and food?"

"This is enough, Lord Wult, the Han people of the Ming Kingdom are not worth trusting, I always suspect that they want to do something unfavorable to us, we still have to be prepared."

Obviously, the person who said this was very influential in the head of the Duoyan tribe, and when these words came out, many people immediately began to echo him, if you don't look at the clothes on his body, you will still think that he is a pampered rich man in the Guannei, sitting there in vain, wearing a luxurious fur, and there are quite charming concubines around him, regardless of the head people below, just snuggled up to him.

He ignored the following discussions, but directly turned his face to ask a middle-aged man dressed in armor on the side, and said with some hesitation:

"My best Eagle Harden, do you think there will be defeated people to give news to the Ming people, so that they are ready to move."

The middle-aged man shook his head, but his voice was very loud, and all of a sudden the voice in the entire tent was suppressed:

"After stopping the last group of people a month ago, I haven't seen scattered tribes or people appear, if the Ming army wants to make any moves, it will definitely not react so late!"

These words were particularly convincing, and the aristocrats who were talking about it all stopped, and there Urt said lazily:

"Now this is the best opportunity for us to get rich, and the Ming people in the south don't know the news yet......"

Before he finished speaking, he was suddenly interrupted by a voice from outside, these people in the camp have been on the grassland for many years, and naturally they can hear what the sound outside is, there must be a large number of horse teams killed in, is it the Ming army, this is everyone's first thought, the largest military force nearby is the border army of the Ming Dynasty, and just now this topic was discussed, but this was immediately denied by them.

Every time Duoyan is stationed close to the border fortress of the Ming Dynasty, the biggest defense is not the tribe on the grassland, but the border army of the Ming Dynasty. Moreover, the current Ming army looks at the deployment and various postures, and it is still a fierce defense against the Mongols, and the army has long disappeared.

There was not much time left for them to think about, in the place where the Duoyan Department was stationed, there were at least more than 6,000 Ding Zhuang who could pick up arms and fight, but when the shouts of killing sounded, they quickly approached the center position, what does this mean, it shows that the other party has a complete advantage.

Harden, who was wearing armor, was shocked and angry, because he was in charge of the entire army and defense here, and he didn't expect it to be so easy to be killed, he shouted loudly, while arranging for the guards to let the Wult and these noble nobles go first, and he was gathering people to prepare to go out to have a look.

A raging fire was already burning to the west of the camp in Duoyan, and Harden, who had rushed out of the camp, couldn't help but see such a sight, and couldn't help but see the darkness in front of him, where the forage and some grain for the winter were stored.

"Warriors, defend your families, defend our tribes, and drive those people out."

There were Mongolian cavalry rushing to the place where the fire started, Harden shouted loudly there, and the cavalry of the guards directly under him slowly gathered around him, and many panicked knights also gathered more and more, and slowly there were more than a thousand people.

Harden turned over on his horse, brandished his saber, and led the people to rush over, and people continued to join along the way, and when he arrived at the battlefield, there were almost 3,000 people around him.

Under the blazing fire of the haystack and the granary, two or three thousand people fought for their lives there, completely entangled, and from time to time someone let out a screaming sound and fell off the horse, if it was directly killed by the knife, it was lucky, even if the horse fell off the horse, it would be trampled directly by the horse and died.

This is not the dress of the Ming army at all, nor is it the dress of any tribe on the grassland, Harden's eyes are about to erupt with fire, it is the duty of a warrior to fight, but it is not clear who the opponent is, it is really infuriating, but after a little stunned, Harden still understood the enemy's words, which is the Chinese of the Ming Dynasty.

Sure enough, it was those treacherous southern barbarians, Harden raised his knife and shouted:

"Chop these people to pieces!!"

The cavalry of the brigade roared and rushed over, and the battle situation on the battlefield that was originally entangled suddenly became divided, and the Han knights, who had a slight upper hand just now, suddenly couldn't resist and retreated.

You chased me away for a short time, and when I reached an open place, the rout suddenly split up, and the Duoyan cavalry on the horse suddenly found that several rows of soldiers appeared in front of them, a row of hundreds of people, the formation was extremely thin, and a big flag flew in the wind behind the array.

There is a big book on it with the word "Jiang......
