Chapter 162: Montina
(a)
Mongina, who is in the prime of life, is the most courageous generation of famous generals in the Great Rope Division, taking the lead in battle, taking the lead, and has outstanding fighting ability, and has almost never encountered an opponent since his debut.
In the course of successive invasions of the Han land, the Mongina tribe has always maintained a record of complete victories. Almost none of the Han generals who fought against Mongina himself made it out of the battlefield alive.
Many people have commented that Mongina's combat ability is not inferior to that of the young Ulinden Muhan, and he is a well-known hero.
This dark-skinned Begi big man has strong pectoral muscles, thick and well-developed limbs, and deep, piercing eyes that bear a lot of resemblance to you. If you're not in opposing positions, you might be friends for life: you both have a soft spot for cavalry warfare, you both pursue the speed of warfare, you both have a knack for mixing long and short weapons, you both love military adventures and charging into battle yourself, and even your experiences are similar.
Mongina was also of noble origin, and also had a prominent father and family history. When Mongina was thirteen years old, his father also took him to meet the then Khan King. His dignified appearance and heroic spirit also left a deep impression on the Khan King at that time. King Khan prophesied that he would become more famous than his father. Mongina's later exploits surpassed his father's.
No one has told me the details of this battle between you and Mongina, except for Wu Shun. Long after your death, on my way out on my travels, I passed by a temple of the god of war, and I went in to pay homage to your statue, and it was only on the walls of that temple that I saw a detailed depiction of the battle. After the attendants had carefully peeled off the dust left by time, I could faintly hear the sound of blades clashing and fighting from the 12 mottled and detached murals of that time.

Gumma's head rested on Mongina's desk, his eyes straight and fixed on Mongina. Mongina's heart was cold.
After listening to the cries of the soldiers who came to report the funeral and the words of you, Mongina realized that he was in a very awkward situation.
Immediately following the Hesse Ministry, Montina's troops reached the area of Cuijiaji. However, he was greeted by a new geographical obstacle created by the mudslide. When he went to the site to inspect the situation, he realized that the Hesse army must have been wiped out by the geological disaster, and that the new wasteland was so muddy that horses could not pass through it at all, and the geology was very unstable, and new landslides and mudslides could occur at any time. He personally went to the camp at Huangsangyukou to inspect it, and the camp was now empty, but it was full of corpses of the Beji people. He saw the body of Kuna, who had been pierced through a large hole in his chest, and realized that the mudslide might not have occurred naturally. The Hesse Department was probably killed by a very strong Han army. Therefore, he took the camp at Huangsangyukou as a command post, stationed his troops on the higher peaks, and while reporting the situation on this side to Pegasus Dasuo, he divided his troops to search the mountains, trying to catch and destroy the Han army of Hesse. Although he had not yet received a reply from Dasuo, he knew very well in his heart that in the future operation, they could only abandon the original combat route and reroute to Linshui.
Looking at Gumuma's head, he realized that the Han army that attacked and killed Gumumar was probably the one that eliminated the Hesse department.
The few words you brought to him made him understand his situation: since he set out on the expedition, he has not been able to protect and save the destruction of the Hesse department in front of him, nor has he been able to save the fall of the Gumuma department behind him, and since he left the army, he has lost his troops and lost his troops without fighting a battle, and sacrificed the eldest grandson of the king of Khan and several relatives, what a humiliation! If he can't bite this Han army and destroy them, the Khan and Da Suo will naturally doubt his loyalty, and wonder if he wants to use the war to make a plan, deliberately using a small number of Han army attacks as an excuse to deliberately damage the strength of the Khan and Dasuo. Without the head of the enemy, he will not be able to account for the Khan and Dasuo!
Perhaps, a few days later, the Khan was furious when he heard the news, and it was his own head that was placed on the table.
Your reminder has ulterior motives, but it is correct: he must do something to solve his crisis and prove his innocence! He must face up to this gang of Han soldiers!
Although he thought that the Han army might well have set a trap against him, judging from the signs of the battle at Huangsangyukou, he concluded that this Han army was not very numerous, and he did not believe that the Han army could launch a surprising attack on his troops who were already prepared with such a small number.
After thinking about it, he thought that the Han army took the initiative to send the head in order to confuse him, make him wonder if the Han army had set up an ambush, and did not dare to turn back to attack, so as to buy time to slip away again.
Now that this elusive Han army has reached his back, it is impossible to stay in the back mountain. Therefore, he decided to order the troops to temporarily stop the fruitless search of the mountains, and also give up the futile efforts to build simple plank roads and climb over the mudslide area, and turn their heads to pursue the Han army behind them, and never let the Han army slip back to the Han land, and must wipe them out on the grassland, use the corpses and heads of these Han soldiers to give Dasuo and the Khan King a minimum explanation, and also wash away the humiliation of not being able to care about each other and being defeated by the Han army since the start of the war.

Soon after Gumuma's head was sent, Mongina's cavalry swept in.
They stormed the camp in Gumumah. However, they were still greeted by silence and corpses on the ground.
Standing outside the Gumuma's tent, Monjina saw the headless body of the Gumumah hanging from the flagpole, strung with the flags of the Khan's lineage. As the banner fluttered, the headless corpses were dripping with blood, and the scene was quite terrifying.
As Mongina looked up at the corpse, his cavalry was scattered around the camp, searching for traces of the Han army. But, of course, nothing. Not only was there no trace of the Han army, but even the horses and yaks in the camp and all the living creatures had disappeared. There are only large quantities of baggage that are discarded everywhere.
Just then, there was a bang outside the camp, and when Mongina looked back, he saw a beam of fireworks rising from behind an unnamed sand dune not far away.
Then the earth suddenly trembled slightly.
Montina's horses sensed something unusual on the ground, neighed in horror, and trotted restlessly.
Just as their horses were in a commotion, a strange sound rolled in from the front of the camp and from the direction of the dunes on both flanks.
