Chapter 689: It's Time to Perform Real Technique
In the Hetao area north of the Yellow River and south of the Yinshan Mountains, there is the pasture of the king of Zasakdoro County, and tens of thousands of Mongolians in the Ordos Department graze their cattle in this area with fertile water and grass.
At this time, at the southern foot of Yin Mountain, there were already white Mongolian tents, and one of the huge tents covering an area of one acre was the royal tent of the king of Zasakdoro County.
After the defeat of Lin Dan Khan, Monan Mongolia was conquered by the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and the Chahar, Tumut, and Ordos, who originally served Lin Dan Khan, suffered a major blow.
At present, the strength of the Ordos Department is only 10,000 accounts, and the population is only 50,000 or 60,000, but the Ephochen relied on the majesty of the Manchu Qing Dynasty to gain a firm foothold in the Hetao.
At this time, in the king's tent, Ephochen sat on a blanket, his sons Batu and Gulu sat beside him, and Babu, the son of Chechen Khan in Mobei, and Chahun Dorji, the son of Tushetu Khan, and Tsewangzhab, the brother of Zasaktu Khansha, sat on both sides.
In the tent, a stove was set up, fat sheep were roasted on it, and mare's milk wine was poured in front of everyone.
Wearing a pointed felt hat and iron armor wrapped in his fur, he stretched out his hands to enjoy the warmth brought by the bonfire, and said with a bold smile on his face: "This time, at the invitation of the regent of the Qing Dynasty, the three tribes of Mobei will go to Guanzhong to plunder with us Ordos and Tumut, and gather our strength, it is not difficult to break through the wall, it will be a feast!" ”
During the Jiashen period, when the Qing army attacked Guanzhong, Ephochen went out from the division and followed Azig on the northern road to pass through the pass, and knew the situation in Guanzhong very well.
To tell the truth, the Mongolian tribes in Hetao have not been in the middle of the pass for some years.
There were thousands of ravines in that place, and when the wind blew a handful of soil, he was poorer than them, and there was nothing to rob at all, so he didn't really want to go to Guanzhong.
However, Dolgon gave an order to be a guide for the three departments of Mobei, and he could only speak with his conscience.
At this time, Babu, the son of the Chechen Khan, asked: "I heard that Guanzhong has been chaotic for more than ten years, and the two major thieves in the Ming Dynasty, Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong, are both from Guanzhong. ”
There was a trace of embarrassment on his face, but he covered up the past well, slammed his fist on his chest, and swore an oath: "You can rest assured that Li Zicheng has long perished, and Zhang Xianzhong is about to die." Now Guanzhong is occupied by a barbarian surnamed Gao, this barbarian set the capital in Xi'an, in order to build his capital, from the rich Huguang transported a large amount of money and grain, as well as exquisite cloth, determined to restore the prosperity of Guanzhong, so you don't worry, as long as you enter Guanzhong, the harvest will be rich, and even force the barbarians, hand over a large amount of money and grain, in exchange for our retreat. ”
The envoys of the three divisions exchanged glances, and their eyes showed greed.
Babu added: "To be honest, our Chechen Ministry still has some concerns about going south to plunder Guanzhong. This is because I heard that Guanzhong is dilapidated and unprofitable, and second, I heard that the group of barbarians who occupy Guanzhong is very capable of fighting. Now that I have listened to the words of the prince and know that the barbarians have set the capital in Guanzhong, there will definitely be no shortage of money and food, and now there is only one last concern! ”
Knowing that Mobei Mongolia must have done some homework, he immediately smiled and said: "Yes, those barbarians have some combat power, but we are not fighting with them, but to plunder, so naturally we are the main force to avoid the barbarians." Thousands of miles on the Great Wall, we found a breach at random, and then poured into the pass, and the barbarians didn't have many cavalry, they couldn't catch up with us at all! ”
Babu thought about it, the main force of the barbarians was in Yan'an, the Mongolian horse army went to Yinzhou, the barbarians chased over, the Mongolian horse army moved to the south, the two legs of the barbarians, it was impossible to keep up with them, the Mongolian horse army maneuvered left and right a few times, and the barbarians had to get tired and lie down.
The situation facing Mobei Mongolia can be said to be very bad, with the powerful Manchus to the east and the rising Dzungar to the west, they are right in the middle, and sooner or later they will be completely controlled by one of them.
Two years ago, Mobei Mongolia was defeated in the west of Koushan, and later Chechen Khan Shuoli induced the Horqin Sunit Mongols to betray the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and sent 30,000 troops to help them resist the Qing army, but they were still defeated by the Qing army, and the tribe was robbed of a large number of cattle, sheep and materials by the Qing army, and the herdsmen were in short supply of tents even to cross the east, and life was very difficult.
Listening to Ephochen's words, Babu was already moved, "In this case, we, the Chechen department, are willing to send 20,000 warriors to the south. ”
Tsehu Dorji, the son of Tushetu Khan, and Tsewang Zab, the brother of Zasaktu Khansha, looked at each other, and then said in unison: "We will also give 20,000!" ”
Phosphine showed joy on his face, and the three tribes of Mobei were willing to send troops, and he completed Dolgon's explanation.
"Haha~ Okay!" He laughed and raised his glass, "Now that the Yellow River has frozen and can be used for the army to pass, and our 10,000 warriors in Ordos are also gathering, as soon as your men and horses arrive, we will immediately go south to grab the barbarians." ”
Most of the people in the tent laughed, raised their heads and drank the mare's milk wine, and everyone put down their cups, ate large pieces of meat, and enjoyed the harvest after entering the customs.
Seeing that the atmosphere was mobilized, Ephochen couldn't help but smile a little proudly: "If you want to talk about cavalry warfare and plundering, we are still strong in Mongolia. The barbarians in Guanzhong are a bit of combat power, but it is not enough to see us Mongolian, as long as we don't fight hard and give full play to our characteristics, we can grind them to death. ”
Thinking of Genghis Khan's time, the Mongol horse army swept through Europe and Asia with its horses and bows and arrows in its hands, and no matter what kind of opponent it was, it was all ruined.
He believed that the reason why the Manchus could not take Gao Yihuan was that they would not use the real tactics of cavalry.
As he spoke, there was a rush of footsteps from far and near, and in a short time the curtain was lifted, and a cold wind poured into the tent, causing the flames to flicker and make the neck shrink.
Everyone in the tent immediately looked at the door, and saw a Mongolian man enter the tent, and before he took two steps, he fell to the ground.
Phoschen's face was shocked, Babu was close, and he was the first to react, stepped forward to help the man who fell to the ground, and asked urgently, "What's the matter?" ”
He held his hand and felt that the man's body was wet and sticky, only to find that he was covered in wounds, and the wounds on his body were still bubbling with blood.
"Lord Wang, it's not good, our tribe has been raided by barbarians, and nearly a thousand people are all finished!" The man actually cried.
Er Fuchen looked surprised, he didn't expect such a situation to happen at all, the barbarian actually dared to raid the Hetao, he was really looking for death, he had a calm face, "Are you sure it's the barbarian's cavalry!" ”
"That's right, it's the barbarian's cavalry, there are more than 3,000 people, and the entire tribe has been killed." The man cried, "Lord Wang, miserable!" Avenge us! ”
The faces of Babu and the other two messengers on the side immediately sank, and Babu frowned and said, "Lord Wang, it seems that this group of barbarians is not as easy to provoke as you said!" ”
Phosphine's face was cloudy, and he suddenly waved his hand, "Don't be afraid!" Saying that, he gritted his teeth and said: "Look at this king's troops, destroy them, and let them know the true tactics of the Mongolian cavalry!" ”
Babu and the other two looked at each other, "Okay, then let's see how the prince destroys this group of barbarian cavalry." ”
