Chapter 857: Huang Taiji's Blow
With Suo Keti's help, a very bold idea quickly formed in Wang Feng's mind.
Then, without the slightest hesitation, all the regiment commanders were immediately gathered together and began to assign combat missions.
And just when a net began to form around the Tartar secret camp, Huang Taiji, who was dozens of miles away, was like an ant on a hot pot, walking back and forth in the big tent of the Chinese army with an anxious face.
Because, from the time the Tiger and Leopard Army left the barracks and entered the mountains, every move of Wang Feng and his more than 20,000 soldiers could not escape the eyes of the Tartar Zhenghuang Banner scouts.
When he first received the news that the main force of the Haw Par Army had entered the mountains and encircled and suppressed him, Huang Taiji did not take this matter too seriously, and only ordered the scouts to continue to monitor the Haw Par Army's every move, and no longer paid attention to this matter.
In Huang Taiji's view, no matter how capable the Haw Par Army is, it is impossible to find the secret camp that he personally found and built.
In the first two days, the situation was not unexpected by Huang Taiji.
The tiger and leopard army that entered the mountains began to skewer back and forth in the mountains like headless flies. In two days, except for the extermination of a few Houjin tribes again, no other results have been achieved, and you needless to say that you have found a secret camp that even ordinary Tartars don't know.
However, from the third day, little by little, the situation began to surprise itself.
It was like a big net, and the Haw Par Army, which had been completely dispersed, was gathered together.
Not only that, but these assembled Haw Par Army no longer divide their troops. It was as if they had found themselves in the secret camp, hugging each other and heading straight in one direction.
And what made Huang Taiji even more shocked and incomprehensible was that. This direction is not coincidental. Right in front of the secret camp where he was.
"How could it be. Could it be that the Haw Par Army has already discovered the secret camp where we are...... "After a day of waiting and confirmation, Huang Taiji is like a frightened rabbit. Facing his subordinates, he asked rhetorically with an incredulous face.
However, as soon as he said his words, he was denied by himself: "Impossible, absolutely impossible...... The specific location of the secret camp is not even known to ordinary officers and soldiers in the army, let alone the tiger and leopard army who are not familiar with the mountain under their feet......"
Huang Taiji's rhetorical question is not unreasonable, but. Facts are facts, and no one can change them.
And at this moment, the scout, who was listening to the news outside the secret camp, directly used a message he brought back to answer a question that Huang Taiji had just raised...... "Great Khan, the scout team has sent back the latest news, almost 20,000 tigers and leopards have been pressed to a position less than thirty miles away from the secret camp. In addition, on the way of the Outer Tiger and Leopard Army, a total of three tribes were devastated by the Tiger and Leopard Army. Also, there's one more news here, minions. I don't know if I should say it or not......"
The scout captain's hesitation made Huang Taiji have no place to vent his anger in his heart. Find your target and vent it right away. "Dog minion, when is it, what else is there to say...... Say everything you want to say right away, Ben Khan can handle it......"
Under the pressure of Huang Taiji's eyes full of anger, although the scout captain was very aggrieved, he had to answer under Huang Taiji's gaze: "Yes, the Great Khan ......" "The minions' scout team learned from several people who escaped from the encirclement and suppression tribe of the tiger and leopard army that a large number of soldiers were found in the tiger and leopard army that surrounded and suppressed them......
"Not only that, but these soldiers who followed the rear army were like a different person, and in the battle to encircle and suppress these tribes, they wantonly slaughtered our Houjin people......"
"The minions thought that these soldiers of the Houjin Army who followed the Tiger and Leopard Army must have broken away from the army and surrendered to the Tiger and Leopard Army, and became the original Houjin warriors who became traitors to the Houjin......"
"Needless to say, it must be these betrayers who have forgotten their ancestors and surrendered to the Haw Par Army...... I really didn't expect that these people would surrender to the Haw Par Army so soon and start doing things for the Haw Par Army......"
"Has your scout team conducted a specific reconnaissance, how many soldiers are there in these surrendered Haw Par Army, and which general is in charge......" Huang Taiji, who had a solemn face, took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart as much as possible, and asked loudly.
"The total strength is more than 700 people, as for the commander of this army, it is the Great Khan, who you are very familiar with, Suo Keti, who was originally led ......by the Yellow Banner."
"What, it's him......" Huang Taiji asked with an incredible look as if he had heard a big joke.
Then, an unprecedented gloom appeared on Huang Taiji's face.
Because, because this Suo Keti is smart, he has always been trusted by himself.
As his confidant, he didn't keep any secrets from him about many secrets in the Houjin Army.
It can be said that this Suo Keti's surrender to the Tiger and Leopard Army, just the various secrets of the Houjin Army that he revealed to the Tiger and Leopard Army, for himself and the entire Houjin, the blow is unprecedented.
And it was only at this moment that Huang Taiji finally understood why a few days ago, the Tiger and Par Army seemed to have found the secret camp where they were, and came straight to the secret camp.
It turned out that this was not as if, it was true, and the Haw Par Army had really found the secret camp where they were.
As for the reason, it turned out to be his most trusted henchman who surrendered to the Haw Par Army and took the initiative to leak it to the Haw Par Army.
The blow that this marriage caused to Huang Taiji was definitely greater than the loss of tens of thousands of people.
He lost tens of thousands of soldiers on the battlefield, although the national strength of Houjin was greatly weakened. However, as long as the soldiers use their lives, they can completely rely on the remaining soldiers to redeem this defeat.
And what about the matter at hand...... The defection of his confidant and beloved general directly told himself that the soldiers under his command no longer had any hope for the future of Houjin. Otherwise, they would not have betrayed themselves and slaughtered their compatriots for the sake of their own insecurity.
More importantly, the betrayal and surrender of his confidants directly told him that for the Haw Par Army dozens of miles away, he no longer had any secrets.
The reason why tens of thousands of tigers and leopards stopped motionless dozens of miles away is probably because they are planning a huge conspiracy against themselves......
However, as a generation of heroes, Huang Taiji is definitely not a person who admits defeat so easily.
The face of the fiasco did not last long on the face, and was overshadowed by the firmness that followed.
"No, we can't just stay here and wait to die...... The Haw Par Army knows everything about us and we have to make changes. Otherwise, in the face of the attack of the Tiger and Leopard Army, we can only be beaten passively......" Ben Khan affirmed that there was only one reason why the Tiger and Par Army stopped thirty miles away and did not move...... That is to choose the best time to wipe us out here...... We must not allow the purpose of the Haw Par Army to achieve ......" (to be continued......
