"Great Khan, no, the young man who came yesterday is gone, I don't know where he went?"

Early the next morning, Baturhun woke up and was having breakfast with Balan and other senior generals of the Dzungar tribe, when a guard hurried in to report.

"What?" Baturhun was taken aback when he heard this, he never expected that Sarentana would disappear.

"Did someone kidnap Saren?" Balan had already seen Sarentana yesterday, and his brows suddenly furrowed, and he asked Baturhun in a deep voice.

"No way, the barracks are heavily guarded, and it's not easy to take someone out." Baturhun shook his head when he heard this, no one except Balan knew about Sarentana's presence in the barracks.

"Could it be ......" Balan immediately realized something when he heard this, and he couldn't help but have a stunned look on his face.

If she was not kidnapped, then Sarentana left on her own, and since someone had already pretended to be a relative of Sarentana and the Heshute tribe, Sarentana did not have to remarry, so there was no need for her to leave.

However, Sarentana actually left, so it means that she didn't leave because of marriage, so there is only one reason that can be thought of when she thinks about going to Baran, that is, Sarentana returned to the Ming army camp.

"This kid ......" Baturhun naturally thought of this, and couldn't help but muttered to himself helplessly.

He didn't know what kind of ecstasy soup Li Hongyu poured into Sarentana, and it actually made Sarentana go back, Li Hongyu already suspected that Sarentana was born in the Moxi aristocracy, so wouldn't he become a hostage in Li Hongyu's hands.

"Great Khan, if I send someone out to look for it, I may be able to find Saren." Balan knew that Baturhun cared about Sarentana, so he muttered for a moment and whispered.

"It's too late, the big war is coming, we don't have the energy to care about her, if she really goes back, then the situation is undoubtedly safe."

Batur shook his head when he heard this, Li Hongyu must have been closely protected by the Ming army, and Saren Tana and Li Hongyu's safety can definitely be guaranteed.

Balan nodded when he heard this, knowing that Batur was right, so he could only bless Sarentana in his heart.

On the banks of the Yuma River, in a grove on the hills.

Li Hongyu set up the tent in front of the hill, and at this time, he stood in the grove on the hill and observed the camp of the Moxi coalition army on the opposite side with a thousand miles of tubes.

The location of this hill is very good, standing on it, you can overlook the overall situation of the battlefield, the Moxi coalition army and the Mongolian and Ming coalition forces are gathering troops on the battlefield, and the two sides are in a tight formation.

If you look at the number alone, the Moxi coalition army is twice as large as the Mongolian and Ming coalition armies, and it has an absolute advantage.

In terms of the quality of the soldiers, the Moxi coalition army is much inferior, their 200,000 army is to extract almost all the young and middle-aged men in the Moxi tribes, and the quality of individual soldiers is definitely not as good as that of the Mongolian and Ming coalition armies.

"Your lord, your maid Nomin is back and wants to see you." Just as Li Hongyu was observing the movements of the Moxi Coalition Army, a guard hurriedly came to report.

"She's back?" Li Hongyu couldn't help but be slightly stunned when he heard this, and was quite surprised by this, it stands to reason that Nuo Min's father and brother shouldn't let her come back.

"My lord, do you know how many troops Moxi has mobilized this time?" At Li Hongyu's suggestion, Sarentana was quickly brought to Li Hongyu and asked Li Hongyu anxiously.

"About 200,000." Hearing this, Li Hongyu glanced at the direction of the Moxi Coalition Army and replied quietly.

"Their forces are twice as large as yours, how can you win the war, it is better to take advantage of the peace talks before the war to avoid this battle." Seeing that Li Hongyu said the concubine "200,000" lightly, Sarentana couldn't help but become a little anxious, and said to Li Hongyu with a concerned expression.

In Sarentana's view, Li Hongyu now has an absolute disadvantage, 100,000 people can't beat 200,000 no matter what, she doesn't want her father and brother to have an accident, and she doesn't want Li Hongyu to be in danger.

"Now that the arrow is on the string, I have to send it, and I can't stop."

From Sarentana's anxious look, Li Hongyu knew that she was worried about herself, so she smiled and said, "Don't worry, if I am not sure, I will not fight this battle." ”

"Someone, take her down to rest." Saying that, Li Hongyu commanded in a deep voice, this is a battlefield, and Sarentana is not suitable to stay here, so it is better to stay away from the battlefield.

"No, I'm going to stay here."

However, Sarentana had no intention of leaving, and shook her head at Li Hongyu with a stubborn expression, in case Li Hongyu was defeated, she could still be used as a hostage to escape, she was Baturhun's favorite daughter, and those people in Moxi would definitely not dare to hurt her.

"Do you want to be a hostage to protect me from my escape?" Li Hongyu was a little surprised when he heard this, but the entourage guessed her intention from the concerned eyes of Saren Tana looking at him, and couldn't help but ask with a smile, feeling that this girl was quite affectionate and righteous.

"I ...... I don't want to miss this rare battle. Saren Tana didn't expect Li Hongyu to be so straightforward, her cheeks turned red when she brushed it, and she explained in a bit of a panic.

She didn't know what was wrong with her, she just felt her chest pounding like a deer crashing, something she had never done before.

"Okay, then you can stay." Seeing that Sarentana's face was crimson, Li Hongyu knew that he had said something in her heart, so he smiled and nodded, anyway, he was safe here.

If he loses here, it means that the Mongol and Ming coalition forces have been defeated this time, and it will not be safe for Sarentana to hide elsewhere in the chaos.

It didn't take long for the two sides to set up positions on the battlefield, and on Li Hongyu's side, the Mongolian Western Expeditionary Army and the Ming Army formed two fists on the left and on the right.

On the side of the Moxi coalition army, the armies of the Junggar and Heshute tribes were in the front, and the armies of the Turghut and Duerbert divisions were behind the palace, putting on a posture of fighting to the death.

"Although you and the Shuote Department are the commanders of the Moxi Army this time, in my opinion, the stronger ones are the Junggar Division." Li Hongyu checked the formation of the Moxi Coalition Army with a thousand miles tube, and said to Saren Tana with a smile.

"Baturhun Khan of the Dzungar Department is the leader of the Churkan Council, and if it is not for the joint battle with the Shuote Department this time, he will not give up the commander to Gushi Khan."

Hearing this, Sarentana couldn't help but speak, there was a bit of smugness in her words, she was very confident in the military strength of the Zhun Ge tribe.

"You're not from the Heshute Ministry, you're from the Junggar Ministry!" Li Hongyu couldn't help but glance at Saren Tana when he heard this, and then said in a deep voice.

"I'm not from the Dzungar Ministry." Saren Tana was not mentally prepared at all, and was taken aback when she heard this, with a panicked look on her face, and hurriedly denied it.

"I don't care who you are, you can come back this time to warn me, I already regard you as a friend."

What kind of person Li Hongyu is, he immediately knew from the change in Sarentana's expression that she was lying, so he smiled and said, looking disapproving.

"Friends?" The flustered Sarentana was slightly stunned when she heard this, and was very surprised by Li Hongyu's words, Li Hongyu was a high-ranking official and dignitary of the Ming Dynasty, and he was able to become friends with her.

At this moment, there was a rumbling drum on the battlefield, and Li Hongyu knew that this was the signal for the Moxi coalition army to attack, so he looked up.

"Kill!" The next moment, the cavalry in front of the camp of the Moxi coalition army moved, like the tide of opening the gate, and rushed towards the cavalry of the Mongolian Western Expeditionary Army and the Ming Army on the opposite side, waving the sabre and bow and arrow in his hand, and let out a loud shout.

This made Sarentana's heart suddenly hang, and she looked nervously at the battlefield, which was the first time she had been on the battlefield.

What made Sarentana feel strange was that in the face of the charging Moxi cavalry, the cavalry of the Mongol Western Expeditionary Army and the Ming Army stood motionless, as if they had no intention of attacking.

Not only Sarentana, but also Baturhun and Gushi Khan, who were watching the battle in the camp of the Moxi Coalition Army at this time, were also puzzled, the cavalry could only exert their maximum combat effectiveness when they charged on the battlefield, but the Ming army and the Mongolian Western Expeditionary Army were unmoved, didn't they even know this simple truth?

"Cover your ears." When Sarentana was feeling strange, Li Hongyu, who was standing in front of her, suddenly turned to her and said.

Sarentana didn't know why, and covered her ears obediently when she heard this, and at the same time, one of the guards beside Li Hongyu released a red signal flare with a whistling sound, which exploded in the air, forming a beautiful red petal.

Bang bang bang......

Just as Sarentana, Baturhun and the others were puzzled by the bright red flowers in the sky, a series of muffled sounds rang out in the grove behind Sarentana, followed by clouds of gunpowder smoke rising from the grove.

As Sarentana watched, dozens of small black dots passed over her head and fell towards the charging Moxi cavalry.

"Artillery!" Sarentana immediately realized what the muffled noises, the smoke and the small black dots were, and a look of shock appeared on her face, she never expected that the artillery unit of the Ming army was hiding in the grove behind her, she didn't notice it at all.

Boom Boom Boom ......

The cannonballs that fell from the air fell one after another in the middle of the charging Moxi cavalry, sending out a series of violent explosions, mud and blood splattered, many Moses cavalry were affected by the explosion, screamed and fell off their horses, and were soon trampled into flesh by the cavalry behind.

Because of the condescending, Sarentana saw very clearly, as the cannonball landed, a large area of the charging Moses cavalry was knocked down, which made the formation of the charging Moses cavalry change, not only became much thinner but also appeared a lot of blank places, it is obvious that the cavalry in the blank space has been more auspicious.

When Saren Tana was surprised by the power of the Ming artillery, the guards beside Li Hongyu released two more red signal flares with a whistling sound.

"Kill!" At this moment, the cavalry of the Mongolian Western Expeditionary Army and the Ming Army, who were waiting for the battle, raised their weapons and shouted, like a group of tigers descending from the mountain, and pounced on the Moxi cavalry who rushed over.

Then, the artillery in the grove behind Sarentana broke out again with a loud muffled sound, and continued to launch an offensive against the charging Moxi cavalry, blowing up those Moxi cavalry on their backs.

"Quick, take that hill and extinguish the artillery of the Ming army." Gu Shi Khan didn't expect the artillery of the Ming army to be able to fight so far, and after the initial stunned, he gave an order to the generals on the side with a cold expression, and had to explain that the army's artillery power was too great.

Hearing this, the general bowed to Gushi Khan, hurried away, and gathered his forces to attack the grove.

"Inform the ****** that he should lead the army to assist in the attack, and be sure to take down the artillery units of the Ming army."

Gushi Khan was a little worried that the Ming army would definitely defend the grove to the death, so he pondered for a while and gave another order, preparing to let the ****** of the Dulbert department attack together.

At this moment, Gushi Khan did not know that he had made a big mistake, if he had concentrated his heavy troops to eliminate the artillery units of the Ming army at the beginning, then the artillery units of the Ming army might have been destroyed.

After all, the main force of the Mongolian Western Expeditionary Army and the Ming Army was entangled by the Moxi Army, and it was difficult to divide troops to rescue, so they could only rely on Li Hongyu's Ming Army stationed under the mountain.

However, in order to deal with the main force of the Mongol Western Expeditionary Army and the Ming Army, Gushi Khan could not divide his troops too much, so he had to let ****** lead the army forward, which was undoubtedly a return to the mountain.

Therefore, just when the general under Gushi Khan led his army to fight fiercely with the Ming army guarding under the hill, ****** stabbed him from behind and led the army to attack the general from behind.

The general led 20,000 troops to attack Shanbao this time, wanting to use the superiority of troops to defeat the troops guarding the artillery, but who wanted to lead an army of 30,000****** but stabbed him in the back and launched an attack on him without warning, and the general who hit Gushi Khan was caught off guard and soon fell into chaos.

Sarentana looked in amazement at the battle under the hill, the 20,000 Durt soldiers were flanked by the Ming army and the Dulbert soldiers guarding the artillery unit, and they were embarrassed and suffered heavy casualties.

"Damn, he betrayed us!" Both Gushi Khan and Baturhun noticed the fierce battle under the hill, and the two were shocked by this, and they did not expect that the men of Dulbert's department would defect on the battlefield.

Just when Gushi Khan and Baturhun were preparing to send troops to the rescue, the camp of the Moxi coalition army suddenly became chaotic, and the 40,000 troops in charge of the Turghut Department behind the palace launched an attack on the military formation of the Dzungar and Heshute tribes without warning, which made the soldiers of the Dzungar and Heshute tribes scramble for a while.

"These damn guys!" Seeing this, Gushi Khan and Baturhun's faces suddenly turned pale, and they couldn't help but curse in unison, if only the Duerbert Department rebelled, this battle could still be fought.

But now that even the Turghut tribe has taken refuge in the Khan's court, then the Dzungar tribe and the Heshuot tribe will fall into a besieged situation, which is not a scene that Gushi Khan and Baturhun are willing to see, so they will lose hope of victory, and if they continue to fight, it will only increase casualties.

Therefore, Gushi Khan and Baturhun immediately made a decision and gave the order to retreat in unison, and no one wanted to let their soldiers die in vain.

As a result, the troops of the Dzungar and Heshute divisions on the battlefield immediately turned around and left the battlefield one in the south and one in the north.

Seeing that the people of the Zhun Geer Department and the Heshuo Special Department were about to escape, Li Hongyu immediately ordered the guards around him to release three red signal flares, and ordered the whole army to pursue and make sure that the battle was decided.

Sarentana stared at the scene in front of her in amazement, never imagined that a big battle of 300,000 would end like this, and the two sides were defeated just after contacting the Moxi Alliance.

She didn't know what was going on, but she made the Turghut and Dulbert tribes secretly surrender to the Ming army, and then dealt a fatal blow to the Dzungar and Heshute tribes.

Subsequently, Sarentana looked at Li Hongyu, who was observing the battle situation with a thousand miles in front of her, with a complicated expression, and found that this gentle and elegant scholar Li Daxue who was like a big brother next door was a very terrifying figure, and he unknowingly divided the Moxi Mongolian tribes.

Perhaps, this is the will of heaven, Sa Rentana's heart couldn't help but feel a little bitter, if you want to blame it, you can blame the appearance of the Western Mongolian tribes, and then give Li Hongyu a chance.

At this moment, the only thing that Sarentana hopes for is that Batur Khan and the others can escape and not die in the chaos, Batur Khan has Li Hongyu's handwritten letter in his hand, as long as they surrender, they will be safe and sound.
