An hour later, the battlefield fell silent, and only the soldiers of the Changshui Battalion were left cleaning the battlefield, and there was no longer a living Mongol. The battlefield was full of Mongol corpses and dead horses, which could be described as corpses everywhere, and it was terrifying.

At this time, Wen Poyu was sitting on a big rock resting, and he was thinking about the next direction of action of the Changshui Battalion.

After a while, Wen Poyu looked up and saw that it was still early, so he decided that the army would not stop, and after cleaning up the battlefield, he would immediately lead the soldiers of the army into Mayu Mountain, and strive to come to the city of Daning in the shortest possible time.

"Since the Mongolian defenders in Daning City have sent this 20,000-strong iron cavalry army southward, it shows that the Mongolian defenders in Daning City are strong, and they can at least divide 20,000 iron cavalry without affecting the defense! Therefore, I must surprise and carry out a surprise attack, otherwise this battle will be really difficult to fight! ”

After cleaning up the battlefield, Wen Poyu gathered the iron cavalry army, and secretly thought in his heart, racing against time to lead the Changshui battalion soldiers to assemble, it only took a short time to reorganize the formation, and then led more than 40,000 iron cavalry soldiers into Mayu Mountain.

Ma Yu Mountain is a very famous mountain in the desert, it is in the east-west direction, stretches for hundreds of miles in the desert, lies between Daning City and the Hara River, and is the only way to go north to Daning City.

Although Mayu Mountain is not as tall and steep as the famous mountains in the Central Plains, it is relatively gentle on the whole, and even some mountains are just large hills with relatively high terrain, which can be completely navigated by the iron cavalry army. But even so, the soldiers of the Changshui Battalion could not advance too fast, and could only advance as fast as possible in Ma Yushan.

In this regard, Wen Poyu's heart was anxious, the 20,000 Mongolian iron cavalry going south had been wiped out by the soldiers of the Changshui Battalion, if the Mongolian army stationed in Daning City could not receive the news of the 20,000 Mongolian army for a long time, they would definitely be suspicious, and strengthen their defenses in Daning City, and then the attack would turn into a strong attack!

Then when the army was temporarily resting, Wen Poyu was still staring at the terrain map and looking at it, at this time, the army of the Changshui Battalion had already crossed most of Mayu Mountain, according to the speed of the march in front of them, the soldiers of the Changshui Battalion had three more days to get out of Mayu Mountain and rush to the field south of Daning City.

"Three days later, it will be the time for the army to attack Daning City!"

Wen Poyu put away the topographical map and said secretly in his heart: "It's up to the soldiers then!" ”

At the same time that Wen Poyu led the soldiers of the Changshui Battalion to cross Mayu Mountain, the Mongolian leaders of the outer domains stationed in Daning City also quarreled.

Originally, there were 28 Outer Domains of Mongolia that led the army south, but before that, the leaders of the 19 tribes had led an army with a total of 200,000 iron cavalry to the south to attack Baimachuan and cut off the retreat of Ming Jun. At this time, there were only nine Mongolian leaders of the outer domain stationed in Daning City, and there were only eight Mongolian leaders of the outer domain left except for Bayan, who was completely annihilated by Wen Poyu's army.

At this time, the focus of the dispute among these Mongolian leaders of the outer domains was what happened to the Bayan Division, which had lost contact with Daning City for three days!

When Bayan led the army south, everyone had already discussed that the 20,000 southbound iron horsemen would send people back to Daning City every other day to report their safety, and at the same time report the situation ahead, so that the leaders in Daning City would have peace of mind.

But at this time, Bayan's troops seemed to have evaporated from the world and disappeared without a trace, which made the eight Mongolian leaders of the outer domains guarding the city of Daning very worried. The faint sense of fear in my heart made everyone's temper extremely hot, and if I couldn't talk about it, everyone quarreled.

A sturdy leader roared loudly: "I have long said not to go south, those Monan tribes want to start a war with the Ming Dynasty, let them go by themselves, our foreign tribes don't come to the troubled waters, but none of you listen to me!" Well, now the 200,000 iron cavalry on the front line has not yet sent back the news, and now even the 20,000 warriors who went south to support are gone! ”

The other big-faced and small-eyed leader sneered, pointed at the stout leader and said, "Now you know how to reprimand us?" Then why did you also lead 8,000 iron horsemen and us south? It's not that you want to go south to get oil and water! ”

The two immediately quarreled, and neither of them obeyed the other, and there was a tendency to evolve into a fight.

And the other six leaders were also "catching and killing", and the whole tent was full of roars, which frightened the Mongolian soldiers guarding outside, and they didn't know what happened to make these high-ranking tribesmen quarrel so much?

The eight Mongol leaders of the outer feudal domains in the big tent of the Chinese army quarreled from the afternoon until nightfall, and they still could not come up with a reason for arguing. Everyone had their own opinions, and some leaders advocated the immediate withdrawal of the 200,000 iron cavalry on the southern front, and everyone returned to the outer Mongolia together; Some leaders advocated leaving a group of soldiers and horses to continue to hold on to Daning City, and the rest of the army all went south to fight to the death with the Ming army; Some leaders hesitated and wavered between opinions.

Eventually, the eight Mongol chieftains of the outer domains broke up and returned to their tents for a temporary truce.

After nightfall, the entire city of Daning fell silent.

At this time, Daning City was no longer a prosperous city when the Ming Dynasty set up the Daning Governor, at this time Daning City was only four years of disrepair city walls, the houses in the city had already been demolished by the Mongols, and the wood of the houses was used by the Mongols to burn the fire for warmth.

The 80,000 Mongolian iron horsemen stationed in Daning City and more than 200,000 Mongolian tribesmen all live in yurts on the top of the roof, and regard Daning City as a herding place with walls on the wall, and there is no city at all!

This is also the difference between Hu people and Han family children, and Han family children are different, Hu people never know production and creation, never know business development, only know destruction, robbery, let all the good things into ruins, let all the advanced things become regressive!

It was late at night, the whole city of Daning had been silent, almost all the Mongols had fallen asleep, even the Mongol soldiers stationed on the city walls, almost no one would be in such a cold night, looking at the dark desert wasteland outside the city for the whole night.

At this time, the cold wind was cold, the shouting was incessant, and the sharp wind was constantly blowing, blowing on the face like a sharp knife, which was unbearable.

However, unlike the silence inside Daning City, a slight roar began to appear above the wilderness outside the city, slowly approaching from all sides of Daning City. After only a while, the slight roar turned into the roar of iron hooves, which was extremely huge in the dark night, as if it was a thunderstorm in the nine heavens, and suddenly exploded on the desert, causing nearly 300,000 Mongolians in Daning City to wake up one after another.

The eight leaders of the outer Mongolian tribes also ran out of their luxurious tents in disheveled clothes, looking at the dark night in all directions in horror.

The stout leader dragged a soldier who ran to him in a panic and shouted, "What's wrong?" ”

"Ming Army! It's the Ming army that is coming! ”

"What? How many soldiers and horses did the Ming army have! ”

"Uncountable! Outside the city, there are mountains and fields in all directions! ”

The sturdy leader turned pale after hearing this, and the seven leaders next to him were also speechless for a long time.

"How could the Ming army suddenly kill Daning City? Didn't we leave 3,000 iron horsemen in Qingcheng in the south? Why didn't we get the alert! ”

"Could it be that the 200,000 iron cavalry going south have been defeated?"

An older leader said with a terrifying expression, which immediately attracted the angry eyes of the other leaders.

The stout leader roared angrily at this time, "Don't you want to go south to reap the benefits? I think you're all dazed! ”

With that, the sturdy leader turned and left, and began to reorganize his men and horses to prepare for battle. The remaining seven leaders also came to their senses and began to reorganize their troops and horses in a chaotic manner, preparing to meet the Ming army.

However, how easy is it to put together tens of thousands of troops in a short period of time?

At this time, the city of Daning was already in chaos, not only the 200,000 Mongolian tribesmen in the city were all panicked and scurrying everywhere in the city, even the 80,000 Mongolian iron horsemen stationed in the city were also in chaos, and almost no one was sticking to the city wall to meet the enemy!

It was only after the eight leaders had worked hard that they were able to stabilize the chaos in the city, but the 80,000 Mongol iron cavalry had only gathered less than 20,000 horses, and the remaining Mongol soldiers were still unable to assemble in the city.

The eight leaders didn't care much, and divided five leaders to lead the soldiers and horses that had been assembled to defend the city, and the other three leaders continued to gather a large army in the city.

At this moment, a little fire suddenly appeared outside Daning City, and then the scattered torches spread into starlight in the sky, illuminating the entire Daning City into daylight!

The five leaders on the city wall, together with more than 10,000 Mongolian soldiers who had landed in the city to garrison, were already terrified, and they looked at the Ming army outside the city and felt desperate. Especially under the light of the fire, almost all the Mongols on the city wall saw that dozens of black and glowing artillery pieces were still placed in front of the Ming army!

"Did the Ming army fly from the sky?"

At this time, the shortly stout leader said loudly: "We must organize soldiers and horses to go out of the city to meet the battle, at least destroy all those dozens of artillery, otherwise Daning City will definitely not be able to hold on!" ”

The other four leaders also agreed, and after some discussion, they decided that the big-faced and small-eyed leader who had quarreled before would lead the troops to attack, and led the remaining three leaders to temporarily assemble 10,000 iron cavalry to attack.

Just when the Mongols were dispatching troops, Wen Poyu looked at Daning City, which was already in chaos, and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and said secretly: "Finally arrived in time, and then it depends on how strong Daning City is!" ”
