Chapter 54
Ask for recommendations, ask for collections, ask for rewards
"What? You say, in addition to the Ming army in Pingshanzhai near here, there is another army of tens of thousands of people hidden? ”
In the barbarian barracks, after listening to the report of his subordinates, Tumen Khan sat on the throne with a puzzled face, drinking mare's milk wine while thinking.
This morning, the scouts sent by Tumen Khan found the Ming army's sentinel in the place north of Pingshanzhai. At that time, the commander of Wan, who was in charge of reconnoitring and clearing the enemy's sentinels, did not pay much attention to this, and sent fifty light cavalry to chase and kill.
But after that, fifty well-trained light cavalry sentry detectives were gone, and a team of 100 people was sent to search. It was discovered that the sentry's footsteps had disappeared near a wooded area, and that there appeared to be a large army hiding in the woods.
The commander in charge of this matter did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly told Tumen Khan about it.
As the new generation of the Golden Family, and the best generation, Tumen Khan was not a reckless man who only knew how to kill, as he appeared on the surface. On the contrary, he was extremely shrewd, cunning, and good at playing power tricks and intrigue, and it was for this reason that he was able to stand out from the competition for the throne of his brothers and inherit the throne.
"No, if it's a large army of the Ming army. Yesterday was so fierce, there is no reason not to take the opportunity to attack me from behind! "After Tumen Khan personally went to investigate, his years of experience in conquest clearly told him: there were no less than 20,000 troops lurking in the woods!
"If it's not the Ming army, who will it be? The Jurchens are no match for my Mongolian iron horsemen, and if they were them, they would have bowed down in front of me a long time ago, wagging their tails and begging for me to give them some sweetness. Couldn't be! A thought suddenly flashed in his heart, and Tumen Khan was suddenly covered in cold sweat, if it was really that person, it would be bad.
Since the fall of the Yuan Dynasty, the Mongolian steppes have been in a state of strife, with various tribes fighting fiercely with each other for population, pastures, and cattle, sheep and livestock. So far, no tribe has been able to dominate Mongolia like Genghis Khan did.
"Well, except for Dong Fox, that sinister and cunning guy in Mongolia now, no tribe has the strength to compete with my barbarian tribe!" Soon a strong murderous aura flashed in Tumen Khan's eyes, and he probably already knew who was lurking in the woods!
"Isn't that right? Didn't that cunning fox lead more than 10,000 people to attack Jimen? Wrong! Sitting down again, Tumen Khan quickly remembered that the general Turtu who stayed in Hedong a few days ago sent a fast horse to tell him that Dong Fox had gone to Hedong to meet him, and then mysteriously disappeared.
"Report to the Khan! Our soldiers who were ambushing halfway through Pingshanzhai intercepted a piece of intelligence from the Ming army! "At this time, a commander of a thousand entered the tent and presented a letter to Tumen Khan.
"What's going on?" After receiving the letter, Tumen Khan opened it and saw that it was actually Dong Fox who colluded with the Ming army and wanted to kill the letter that he dominated the grassland!
Dong Fox said in the letter that Tumen Khan has always dominated the grassland and plotted against the Ming Dynasty, and he has actually always been in Cao Ying's heart in Han. As long as the Ming court was willing to support himself to get the title of King of Shunyi and support himself to unify Mongolia, Dong Fox was willing to help the Ming army and kill Tumen Khan.
"Damn it! Dong Fox, this ungrateful villain! Sure enough, he is helping the barbarians of the Ming Dynasty, and someone is coming! Gather the whole army, go with Ben Khan to capture Dong Fox alive, and divide this treacherous guy into five horses! "If it was in normal times, it would be impossible for Tumen Khan to fall for such an inferior counter-plot, but unfortunately he had already known that Dong Fox secretly led a large army and ambushed near him, which made Tumen Khan very suspicious of Dong Fox.
"Wait! Call the commander who delivered the letter just now! Suddenly, Tumen Khan ordered the troops to be suspended, but called the commander of the thousand, who had just intercepted the letter, and inquired carefully.
According to the description of this commander, the other party is the elite of the Ming army, who is extremely fierce and good at fighting, and is not afraid of death. They suffered seven casualties and accidentally grabbed a small burden.
"Great Khan, those barbarians of the Ming army saw that we got the burden, and they wanted to go crazy one by one, and in the end, Batu pretended to destroy the burden, and those Ming barbarians left in a huff."
And so it was! You can't go wrong! The order went down, and the army surrounded the forest in two ways, and Ben Khan wanted to kill Dong Fox! At this time, Zitumen Khan no longer had any doubts, and angrily ordered the army to crusade against Dong Fox.
Tumen Khan's crusade against Dong Fox was actually a helpless move, after all, the other party was eyeing him, and it was extremely likely that he would suddenly come out and take advantage of the loss of the Ming army.
"Tulu, you bring five thousand warriors. Camp on the way from Pingshanzhai to that wood, in case the Ming Dynasty barbarians kill me, you must block me! So Tumen Khan arranged for another confidant general to lead a force to block the Ming army.
Pingshanzhai:
"Hehe, Tumen Khan is a tiger, and Dong Fox is an old fox. Is it the tiger that wants to kill the fox? Or is the fox going to kill the tiger? I'm really looking forward to it! Li Rusong sat in the big tent with a smile, drank wine with Monk Lingqin and others, and said with a smile.
"Brother! I sent someone to secretly pay attention, as long as Tumen Khan and Dong Fox are both defeated, we will take them down in one fell swoop? Liu Changchun said excitedly, he really didn't expect his brother to be so powerful, relying on a scout and a fake letter that didn't have much use, he deceived Tumen Khan and Dong Fox to fight to the death.
"Of course we're going, but not until they're done, but as soon as the war starts! Hehe, wait and see, Dong Fox will fight to the death with Tumen Khan for us! ”
