Ozirtu didn't know that the three Khalkha Khan kings opposite him were much more worried than him.

Tushetu Khan Gunbu, Zasaktu Khan Norbu and Chechen Khan Shuo Fortress collected ten miles of troops and camped far away, and the three kings did not have a good face when they saw each other.

In the end, Norbu sighed and said: "I finally know today, the firearms were passed on to Ozirtu by the Ming Kingdom, and Ozirtu can be used so well, so there is no need to explain the army!" Caught off guard, my people have suffered heavy losses! ”

"Yes, that Man Gui is fighting, and he is like a mad dog, it doesn't count if he bites you, he bites me again, and my people also suffer heavy losses!" Gonbu also sighed and said with a sad face.

Shuo Lei looked at the two of them and said angrily: "I have eyes, I can see, how much can I lose?" The key is our morale, which was messed up by Man Gui like this, and it was lost! ”

Hearing this, Norbu immediately became displeased, looked at him and said, "What do you mean by this? My people have died so much, don't you see? Are you blind? ”

"At most, there are more than 1,000 dead and wounded, which is about that!" Shuo Lei said without hesitation, "How can there be immortals in a war, the key is to win this battle......"

On Norbu's side, he collided head-on with the soldiers and horses led by Man Gui, and was bombarded with firearms by the Ming army for the first time. However, in the end, the men and horses on both sides were cavalry, and although there were many people participating in the battle, the casualties were still limited. If the infantry army had fought in a group, there would have been more than a thousand casualties.

On the side of Gunbu, because of the example of Norbu, they were more prepared for the firearms of the Ming army, and there were fewer casualties, no more than three hundred. That's why Shuo Lei said so.

When Gunbu heard Shuo Lei's words, he was not happy, and asked him in a high voice: "It's not your clan who died, of course you won't feel distressed." When the Ming army kills back, why don't your people intercept it? ”

"Man Gui, that madman, lead the army to kill back, whoever wants to stop him at this time is estimated to have heavy casualties." When Shuo Lei said this, he realized that it didn't seem appropriate to say so, so he immediately added, "If the remaining Ming troops are flanked in front and rear, they will definitely suffer heavy casualties." I don't want to think about it, think about it in the long run! “

Although he was reasonable, the problem was that the other two families were dead, and he was not dead, which made the other two families very angry, and they didn't give Shuo Lei a good look.

In the big tent, no one spoke for a while, and they all fell silent.

Or maybe Shuo Lei could understand the mood of the other two, and after thinking for a while, he took the initiative to speak: "The Tsarist Russians also have a lot of firearms, or rather, those barbarians further west also use more firearms. This firearm has a flaw, that is, it is not easy to reload, and it consumes a lot of gunpowder. We can surround the Ming army, not confront them, harass them, as long as we consume their gunpowder, and even consume their food, then the final winner of this war must be us! ”

The other two are not children either, and they don't keep their anger all the time. Hearing him say this, thinking about it seriously, they all nodded.

Whether it's an arquebus or a self-generated musket, it has to be loaded. But there are cavalry troops on both sides, and the speed is very fast, and the speed of this reload is not enough. If the gunpowder of the Ming army is consumed about the same, and the loading speed of firearms is too slow, then the Ming army will have no advantage in firearms, and the Ming army will be able to drown the Ming army with a sea of people here.

In the end, after discussion, the three decided to use their superior forces to surround the Ming army without fighting, but only harass. Don't let the Ming army relax, and more importantly, don't let the Ming army have the opportunity to withdraw to the pass, and drag the Ming army to death on the grassland.

The three tribes took turns to step forward and shake a shot, if any clan was accidentally bitten by the Ming army, the other two tribes would attack the Ming army. Anyway, one purpose, not to let the Ming army retreat easily, until the food and supplies are exhausted.

In fact, the peoples on the grassland are very good at playing this trick.

Riding a horse, surrounding you like a pack of wolves, trying to come up and bite you from time to time, not giving you a chance to rest, harassing too much, consuming all the opponent's energy (military supplies and food and grass), and then they will rush up.

On the grassland, there is no boundaries, and there are basically not many intrigues and tricks to use except for the strength of hard fighting.

And what means the Khalkha tribe will use, Ozirtu knows it with his toes. Therefore, the next day, he saw that the Ming army was still stationed at the foot of the Tianshan Mountains and did not move, and finally he didn't care about his own need to recuperate from his injuries, and hurriedly went to see the governor of Baotou.

In the big tent, as soon as Yang Sichang met with a smile, he asked about Ozirtu's injury, and he was very concerned. But Ozirtu was not in the mood, and after a perfunctory moment, he asked with a serious face: "Lord Zhongcheng, I don't know how the army will stop next?" ”

In order to emphasize the seriousness of the matter, he did not wait for Yang Sichang to answer, and hurriedly said what he thought of as the most likely countermeasures of the Khalkha tribe. Then, with a hint of bitterness, he reminded Yang Sichang and said: "Lord Zhongcheng should not have experienced the grassland war, which is completely different from the battle of the Central Plains. The two sides are fighting for strength, and I dare to guarantee that the Khalkha tribes must have planned it this way. Dare to ask Lord Zhongcheng, the army is stationed, but there are follow-up reinforcements arriving? ”

Although Ozirtu had reminded him very clearly, Yang Sichang still smiled and didn't care, he replied to Ozirtu: "The only way to go west to reinforce the army is this one." But don't worry about the Khan......"

Before the new decree of the imperial court came down and the official reorganization of the Oirats was not carried out, the title of Great Khan of Ozirtu was still there.

When Ozirtu heard Yang Sichang say that he was the only one to go west to reinforce the army, he immediately became anxious. But before he could say anything, he heard a guard at the door say, "Uncle Zhongyong asks to see you!" ”

When Yang Sichang heard this, he didn't say anything, but hurriedly ordered: "Come in!" ”

Ozirtu's heart moved, and it seemed that Lord Zhongcheng didn't care about the grassland tactics. However, Man Gui is a Mongol, he was born in war, and he absolutely knows the difference between the war on the grassland and the Central Plains, and he must understand his worries. Therefore, he decided to wait for Man Gui to come in before talking about it.

I saw Man Gui striding in, seeing that Oziertu was there, he nodded slightly, and then clasped his fists and saluted Yang Sichang: "My lord, I have almost figured it out." ”

As soon as he heard this, Yang Sichang couldn't help but be big, and quickly stood up and said, "Map!" ”

The guards beside him immediately hung up a map, and then Man Gui strode forward, and after looking at the map for a while, he picked up a brush and began to draw circles on the map.

Ozirtu was very curious, and he didn't know what they were doing, so he hurriedly walked over to take a look.

After looking at it for a while, he was suddenly taken aback, how does this map look like a map of Mobei? Lord Zhongcheng and Man Gui were far away at the foot of the Tianshan Mountains, but they didn't think about winning the battle in front of them, but they were pondering the map of Mobei, what does this mean?

To say that Yang Sichang wants to lead the army to defeat the enemy in front of him, and then go straight to the lair of the three tribes in Mobei Khalkha and kill Oziertu, he doesn't believe it. But there is no other explanation. So this ...... What's going on?

He was thinking that Man Gui had stopped writing, and after Yang Sichang looked at the map for a while, he turned to Ozirtu and said with a smile: "Great Khan, you have also fought a lot with the three clans of Mobei, and they should be able to know a thing or two about their lair in Mobei, right?" Come over and see, is there anything else you need to add? ”

Hearing this, Ozirtu came back to his senses and couldn't help but be even more depressed. I didn't expect the two of them to really fight Mobei's idea! If Lord Zhongcheng didn't know the grassland tactics and thought that he could lead the army to attack Mobei, Man Gui would not know that this was absolutely impossible, why are you fooling around?

He took a deep breath, and was about to persuade the two in front of him to fight the battle in front of him first, when Man Gui had already spoken: "Those Khalkha people I arrested, I can't say a fart for a long time, although it took so much time, it feels like it's about the same, but in the end, it's right, the Great Khan will also talk about it, so it can be as accurate as possible." ”

In yesterday's battle, Man Gui captured some prisoners and came back, and since then he has been interrogating Mobei's intelligence.

Those captives are not hard-boiled, and if they are tortured a little more, they will recruit everything. But the point is, they can't tell you clearly. Or if they go back on their own, they probably know how to get there, but if they do, it's not easy. The endless grasslands, deserts, and Gobi deserts, no matter how you go there, it takes a lot of saliva to go, and I am worried that they are pointing the way indiscriminately and need multiple confessions to check, so I have been busy until now before there is a result.

Hearing Man Gui also ask, Ozirtu couldn't help but sigh in his heart, then took a deep breath, and said with a serious face: "Lord Zhongcheng, Uncle Zhongyong, I think that our top priority is to fight the battle in front of us. ”

He is now the Great Khan, and he is qualified to talk about it here. In order to wake up the two people in front of him with a stick, he didn't even hesitate to speak a little heavily. After all, even if the words are heavy, offending the two of them is better than annihilating the whole army, right?

Hearing his words, Man Gui and Yang Sichang glanced at each other and couldn't help but smile. Especially Man Gui, whose full beard couldn't hide his smile, so he grinned. That smiling look is a bit cheap, which makes Oziertu have an impulse, and he wants to go up and slap him, and he can still laugh?

In the end, it was Yang Sichang who smiled and said: "Great Khan, the official said just now that there are no reinforcements for the west. But it doesn't mean that there will be no other reinforcements in the imperial court......"

Hearing this, Ozirtu couldn't help but sigh, what does it mean? Turning his head to look at the map of Mobei hanging there, he suddenly came back to his senses and couldn't help but show a look of joy on his face.

“…… The emperor has sent 50,000 naturalized cavalry troops, led by Governor Hong to the north, and the Liaodong army also has more than 10,000 cavalry, also going north. Then the army drove from Mobei to the Western Regions, and then annihilated the remnants of the three tribes in Mobei here. ”

Yang Sichang said this with a smile, and when he saw Ozirtu's surprised expression, he continued to add, "Therefore, the decree received by this official is that after receiving the headquarters of the Great Khan, he will camp at the foot of this Tianshan Mountain, drag the troops of the three Khalkha tribes, and provide more detailed information about Mobei to Governor Hong by the way. ”

If it is replaced by another army, even so, there are many uncontrollable factors. After all, so many armies acted separately and could not communicate with each other. If the army going north to Mobei is delayed, it will not be able to find the lair of the Khalkha tribes. Or, when the army that went to Mobei, when it was tired, it happened to meet more than 30,000 cavalry troops here, and in the territory of Mobei, it is not certain who wins and who loses.

However, all this, on the side of the Ming army, does not exist. Ozirtu looked at the brocade guard beside Yang Sichang, who has such a magical ability, not only can he know what the battle situation is on the Mobei side, but he can also arrest the people of all ethnic groups in Khalkha from this side and tell the military situation to the past.

Although the grassland is boundless, can it still stop such a magical Ming army? It is said that the flintlock pistol is the heavy weapon of the Ming Dynasty! But in fact, these factory guards with incredible abilities are the real militaristic weapons of the Ming Dynasty and the trump card of the Ming Dynasty!

Ozirtu, who understood what was going on, was really pleasantly surprised. At this time, he understood why Lord Zhongcheng was not in a hurry at all, and why Man Gui would follow the nonsense, it turned out that he was wrong. At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, a huge net was opened to wipe out all the Khalkha tribes. In this way, the revenge of the Oirat tribes will soon be avenged.

Thinking like this, Ozirtu didn't say a word, and immediately pounced in front of the map of Mobei, and after carefully looking at the latest situation marked by Mangui, he immediately began to point out, saying that what terrain on this map is not right, there may also be people from the Khalkha tribe there, and people from the Khalkha tribe will raid Oirat, so what kind of arrangement may be there on his lair, etc., anyway, what Oziertu can think of, everything is clear.

One of the annoying things about nomads is that they don't have a permanent home. For the Ming army, even if they were sitting on a strong city, it was better than them running around. Now, with the full cooperation of Mangui and Ozirtu, this map of Mobei probably marks several places where the three tribes of Mobei may be nomadic. The three of them saw that there was basically no problem, so they took pictures from the factory guards on one side and uploaded them to the temporary group of "Battle of the Prairie" in the chat group, whether it was Hong Chengchou's side, Lu Da's side, or a few bigwigs in Beijing, including Emperor Chongzhen and a few people who knew the art of war, they could see the situation.

At this time, Emperor Chongzhen suddenly discovered that among the three tribes in Mobei, there was a possible nomadic land, which seemed to be far away from the Ming Dynasty. However, there happened to be someone in Daming around here.

So, he immediately chatted privately with Li Zicheng and gave him instructions.

In Siberia, even though it's summer, it's still a bit cold. However, for Li Zicheng's department, it really shouldn't be too warm.

After more than a year of experience in Siberia, among the cavalry of more than 1,000 people, even if most of them were composed of Mongols, the attrition was still quite serious. Today, there are only about 700 people left in this team. The rest of the people, who actually fought and died in the war with Tsarist Russia, were actually less than a hundred.

Just as Emperor Chongzhen explained when they first came, their biggest enemy was God. As for the Tsarist Russians, these thousand horses, when they encounter the Tsarist Russians, as long as they rush up, they are basically 100% solved. Because in this cold land in the extreme north, and thousands of miles away from Tsarist Russia itself, there are only 100 Tsarist Russians who can reach here, and the most encountered will not exceed 300 people.

Whether it is the number of people or equipment, Li Zicheng's army has the advantage. More importantly, the Ming army knew that there were Tsarist Russians operating here, while the Tsarist Russians did not know that there was a Ming army heading north. Suddenly, in this far north, the Russians fled very rarely.

After getting the emperor's will, Li Zicheng, who was a bit of a savage and a little savage, was suddenly excited, and he hurriedly summoned everyone: "Listen, everyone, pack up your things, we are ready to go south!" ”

As soon as he heard this, the soldiers under his command were all overjoyed and asked one after another.

"What, are we going back?"

"Can you get out of this place where birds don't?"

“……”

Li Zicheng shook his head and said: "The emperor asked us to touch the points of the Khalkha tribes, I don't have to clean up those primitive people and Tsarist Russia in the future, no matter what, the Khalkha are much richer than them, and it is time for us to have a good meal." ”

In the past, Emperor Chongzhen asked Li Zicheng to avoid the Khalkha people as much as possible. Even the Khalkha people don't want to wander around in the north anymore, and when they meet the natives, they preach the Ming Dynasty and tell them that you will be the Ming people in the future. When they encountered Tsarist Russia, they didn't say a word and went straight to war.

This kind of thing, after doing it for a long time, and the environment is so bad, they would rather go to war with Khalkha. And now, they have got their wish.

Now they are also mixed into savages, confident that they have this strength, and there is no problem with fighting a small group of Khalkhas, if there are many Khalkhas, take them to the far north for a walk. Now, in this far north, they are the masters.

A few days later, Li Zicheng privately chatted with Emperor Chongzhen and said: "Your Majesty really guesses accurately, the last general has arrived here, there are indeed Khalkha people, and there are quite a few." It's just that with the strength of the last general, I'm afraid I can't clean them up. ”

This situation made Li Zicheng a little regretful. Otherwise, if you take down the places where the Khalkha live, they will be able to improve their lives.

When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, after asking about the basic situation, he didn't say a word, and directly pulled Li Zicheng into the temporary group, and marked the situation found by Li Zicheng on the map.

And after Li Zicheng was pulled in, he was taken aback when he saw the situation. No matter how much he thought about it, he didn't expect that the emperor would send a few troops and have advanced into Mobei, this large-scale Mobei war, the Ming Dynasty seems to have only been in the founding of the country!

Among them was an arrow, not very far from where he was.

After withdrawing from the group, Li Zicheng roared urgently: "All the soldiers, have cleaned up for Lao Tzu, and they are going to see their mother's family!" ”

As he spoke, he pulled out a dagger and began to cut his beard.

Damn, don't be destroyed by your own mother's family as a savage!
