A faint sneer appeared on the corner of Zhang Tianhao's mouth, and he said sarcastically: "I see, you guys are so stupid and cute!" What a bunch of cute fools! ”

Being scolded to his face as a fool, especially with the meaningful word "cute" in front of him, Berrien was naturally uncomfortable, but it was not easy to attack. He didn't want to throw his life here, so he could only say a little angrily: "You are a fool!" ”

Zhang Tianhao said seriously: "Isn't it a fool to carry gold to grab silver?" ”

Berrion was furious and turned to leave. As for the negotiations, in fact, both the Tatars and the white-clothed army knew that it was impossible to achieve anything. Because, neither side has any sincerity. The Tatars hoped to negotiate to buy time for Lin Dan Khan's reinforcements. The white-clothed army also hopes to buy time through negotiations and wait for the arrival of artillery.

Zhang Tianhao suddenly said: "Berrien, how about 50,000 war horses and 3 million taels of silver?" ”

Berrien hurriedly turned his head and frowned, "We don't need war horses......"

Zhang Tianhao said with a smile: "We need it!" ”

Berrien was stunned for a moment, not understanding what Zhang Tianhao meant.

Zhang Tianhao said with a smile: "My lord has already said that he and Mo Yuegen are also old friends. He was very happy to be able to meet again on the battlefield this time. If your army wants to withdraw smoothly, he will symbolically collect a little toll. ”

Realizing that he had been tricked, Berrion said angrily, "You might as well die!" ”

Zhang Tianhao said indifferently: "Please think about it carefully!" If it weren't for this toll, your army would have lost less when it returned to the north of the desert. In the past few days, our cavalry has been fighting with your cavalry, and it seems that you are the ones who have suffered! When the time comes, you will run in front, and we will chase behind, but I am afraid that your army will be very uncomfortable! ”

Although he has no talent in military strategy, he has been by Xu Xingxia's side for a long time, and he has learned a lot. When I threaten others, I look like a decent. These days, the Eagle Cavalry stragglers under the White Army have been entangled with the Tatars, from morning to night, almost without interruption. At the end of the day, the losses of the vulture cavalry were probably about twenty or thirty people. And the losses of the Tatar cavalry were more than a hundred. Such a casualty ratio, of course, the White Clothes Army has done. But on the side of the Tatars, not necessarily.

"You ......" Sure enough, Berrion stopped talking.

This is another damn sore foot, and he was poked by Zhang Tianhao again.

Frankly speaking, before going south, no Tatar would have imagined that their cavalry, when it came to a head-to-head, would actually lose to the enemy. For a long time, the Mongols were invincible in the world. The Tatars also inherited this. In previous battles, the Tatar cavalry relied on clever cavalry and archery skills to destroy their opponents. However, such a tactic, in front of the white-clothed army, could not be used at all, and even suffered a big loss.

The hatefulness of the cavalry of the white-clothed army lies in their muskets, which are too far and too powerful. The cavalry shooting limit of the Tatar cavalry was about thirty zhang. Beyond this range, the accuracy and power will be greatly reduced. However, the muskets of the white-clothed cavalry, often sixty feet away, did not hesitate to fire. The range was twice as long as that of the Tatars.

There is almost no possibility of making up for such a gap. No matter how clever and brave the Tatars were, they could not cross the gap between the two. For most of the battles, the Tatars were only to be played. Because the difference in weapons between the two sides was too obvious, the Tatars would have to pay almost three or four times more to destroy a white-coated cavalry.

Zhang Tianhao said casually: "My lord said, old friends want to stay in Gansu Town, it's okay. He would send someone to greet his old friend every day. ”

Berrion regained his composure and said in a deep voice, "Are we still afraid of you?" ”

Zhang Tianhao said with a smile: "Of course I'm not afraid!" We're old friends! Our family said that he is not ready yet, and he will not be able to receive you for the time being. Gulang City is also not suitable for large-scale field battles, and a little more troops can't be placed. It's best to wait until next year's spring when the flowers bloom, and everyone will find an open place and have a good competition. The adult thinks that the vicinity of Ganzhou City is good, and he is interested in hunting Ganzhou City with Guishang and gathering love. I don't know what you think? ”

Berrion just wants to say, you all die! Also next year's spring flowers! If the Tatars really waited until next spring, it would have been finished long ago. Will also hunt Ganzhou City! Is your mom trying to entertain us? Do you think we're all stupid? Will it really wait in Gansu Town until next spring? Seeing that the opportunity is not good, Lao Tzu has already left! However, people are under the eaves and have to bow their heads, and even if Berrien feels aggrieved, there is no way to get angry. Nothing else, now the fate of the Tatars is in the hands of the white-clothed army.

Seeing that Berrien didn't react, Zhang Tianhao continued: "If Guishang doesn't want to hunt in Ganzhou City, then wait another three or five years, and your lord and Guishang will hunt Mobei." The adults of our family said that he and Guishang are absolutely inseparable. Ganzhou City can't hunt, then it will hunt Mobei. Mobei can't hunt, so he will hunt west of the Green Ridge. What do you think? ”

Berrion chuckled inwardly, feeling that something was wrong. Zhang Tianhao said this, is Xu Xingxia ready to fight with Mo Yuegen? Still want to chase Mo Yugen all the way? It's really troublesome to meet such a perverted opponent. However, he quickly relented. Although Xu Xingxia is perverted, Mo Yuegen is not an ordinary person. Even if Xu Xingxia had such an idea, it would not be realized. Will hunt Mobei, do you think anyone can do it? The original Ming army didn't chase all the way to Mobei? Could it be that the cavalry of the White Army? Absolutely not convinced!

Zhang Tianhao smiled and said: "Our family also said that in two days, the cannons we captured from Li Maohui will also be transported to Gulang City." If you're interested, come and see how powerful these cannons are! For the sake of everyone being old friends, we will definitely receive you warmly. Don't say it, you don't have the courage to show up! ”

Berrien's heart chuckled again. He didn't know if Zhang Tianhao was intimidating himself or if he was really telling himself the truth. I think it should be a little more true. Because, the cannon in Li Maohui's hand did fall into the hands of the white-clothed army. Speaking of which, that damn Li Maohui is really a waste, and he can't do anything at all.

Originally, he was asked to transport artillery to the front line to attack Ningxia Town, but in the end, it was all sent to the white-clothed army, and they came to attack Gansu Town. That's really ...... However, when thinking of Bachlu's fate, there seems to be no reason to blame Li Maohui. Even Bachlu has been killed, how old is he Li Maohui? Can he be better than Bachluch?

Seeing Berrien's face cloudy, Zhang Tianhao's heart was as sweet as drinking honey. He really wanted to look up to the sky and roar and vent the joy in his heart. He was sure that he was definitely the first Han Chinese who dared to be so arrogant to the Tatars since the Tumubao Incident. For his own laughter and scolding, Berrien can only bear it silently. Even the first assistant of the cabinet, Fang Congzhe, or the Wanli Emperor, could not do this.

All this is because of Xu Xingxia and because of the white-clothed army. It was precisely because of his great strength that he was qualified to laugh at Berrion and the Tatars to his heart's content. The current combat effectiveness of the White Army is fully qualified to be on an equal footing with the Tatars, or even slightly superior. If it had been for other troops, for other people, to mock the Tatars in this way, the butcher's knife of the Tatars would have been raised a long time ago. It's cool, it's really unprecedentedly cool!

Berrien finally calmed down his mood and said in a deep voice: "Since that's the case, let's take my leave." ”

Zhang Tianhao said with a smile: "Don't send it." ”

After Berrien left, Xu Xingxia came out from behind. Zhang Tianhao said casually: "My lord, these Tatars, when they are dying, are still so arrogant, really." ”

Xu Xingxia nodded casually, in response. For the negotiation, Xu Xingxia has no expectations at all, just forget it. What he cares about now is the follow-up combat force of the White Army. He needs to make some adjustments and arrangements according to the actual situation. The battle with Mo Yuegen is only afraid that it will be protracted and protracted, and it will be held at least until winter.

Judging from the current actual situation, it is a bit difficult for the white-clothed army to take the initiative to launch an attack and repel Mo Yuegen. Mo Yuegen's troops are very good at field warfare, and their combat effectiveness in the field is stronger than that of Lin Dan Khan's iron lance cavalry. If the white-clothed army and Mo Yuegen fight hard, the losses may be relatively large. This kind of loss is completely unnecessary. Because, taking advantage of the advantage of time, it is completely possible to force Mo Yuegen to retreat, and the cost will be very small.

In fact, the moon gun is not very suitable for fighting on horseback, but more often, it is suitable for infantry use. Of course, an infantry on horseback is also considered infantry. At present, the white-clothed army, except for the three units of the Eagle Cavalry, the Eagle Cavalry, and the Eagle Cavalry, the other units, strictly speaking, are cavalry infantry on horseback, not cavalry in the true sense. In the event of a big battle, they still need to dismount and line up for a musket salvo.

This was not the case with Mo Yuegen's troops. His troops, pure cavalry, were completely capable of performing kung fu on horseback. Whether it is hand-to-hand combat or mounted archery, it can be completed on horseback, and it also has the ability to continue fighting. They can shoot arrows in succession, or they can slash in succession. This is stronger than the white army. The muskets of the white-clothed army cannot be reloaded on horseback, and must be dismounted. Therefore, for the time being, in the open field of the wilderness, pure cavalry is hard-hitting, and Mo Yuegen can still take some advantage. Of course, the end result must also be scarred. After all, the power of rifled guns cannot be underestimated.

What the white army needs most now is actually time. It takes time to produce weapons and equipment, it takes time to develop production, it takes time to train recruits. Take the most important weapons and equipment muskets, for example, the monthly production is more than 3,000 units. It's the end of September, and as long as it can hold out until next year, the craftsman's workshop will be able to produce nearly 10,000 muskets. This is a pretty good number, which means that the troops can be increased by almost 10,000 people.

...... "Too much deception!" Mo Yuegen scolded angrily.

Berrion's report made all the Tatar high-ranking people feel very angry. In addition to the anger, I felt a little helpless. If someone else had spoken to the Tatar like this, the Tatar would have said nothing, and would have turned around and killed him. However, in the face of the strength of the white-clothed army, the Tatars only had the patience to continue to hold back. The Tatars, of course, were not willing to endure. But what else could they do but endure? Go on the offensive? Fall back?

If you continue to attack, you will have to crash headlong into the walls of Gulang City and the fierce firepower of the white-clothed army. It's hard to say how many warriors' lives they need to pay to take down Gulang City. Perhaps, the whole army will not be able to take down Gulang City. If you choose to retreat, where to retreat? What happens after the retreat? A series of questions, like heavy stones, pressed on the chests of every Tatar high-ranking person, making them feel like they were about to suffocate.

"Didn't you reveal that Lin Dan Khan was going to attack him in the back?" Someone asked quietly.

"I revealed! However, they do not believe it at all. Well, it feels like they believe it, but they don't take it to heart. They defeated Lin Dan Khan in Baihuze, and they didn't pay much attention to Lin Dan Khan. Berrion said helplessly.

The Tatar high-level around the "......" were collectively speechless. If even this news does not make the white-clothed army retreat a little force, then the Tatars are really in trouble. is blocked in the ghost place of Gansu Town, the longer it is, the more unfavorable the situation is. So, their eyes were subconsciously focused on Mo Yuegen's body.

Mo Yuegen is indeed in a bit of a dilemma. In fact, there is a path, but he cannot make a choice. Desperately attacking and taking Gulang City is a way out. The problem is that if the price is paid and the end result is not satisfactory, then it is the end of it. Especially on that bloody night, the troops carrying weapons lost so many people at once, which stimulated Mo Yuegen to a great extent. If such a massacre were to happen a few more times, the Tatars would be completely annihilated.

As the arrow god of the Tatars, Mo Yuegen felt very sad. He became more and more aware that in the battles of this era, bows and arrows would slowly fade out of the battlefield. Muskets and cannons are the protagonists of the battlefield in the future. And the Tatars, as a nomadic people, happen to be the weakest in this regard, and there is no possibility of surpassing them at all.

But what could the Tatars rely on if they did not rely on mounted archery? Mo Yuegen felt that there was darkness in front of him.
