"What! Tumen Khan will withdraw his troops tonight, how does Li Gongzi come to his judgment? ”
In the camp of the Ming army in Pingshanzhai, Yang Yuntong looked at Li Rusong who was smiling and groaning opposite with a surprised face, and asked in a trembling tone.
Today, during the day, the Ming army won a complete victory, beheading 3,521 levels, capturing countless armor and weapons, as well as 1,852 intact war horses that could continue to be used in combat, as well as a large number of gold and silver.
After this battle, Yang Yuntong can be said to admire Li Rusong, but he never expected that the army had just returned to Pingshanzhai. In the evening, after receiving a piece of information, Li Rusong actually ordered the whole army to go out and prepare to ambush Tumen Khan!
According to Yang Yuntong's estimate, even if Tumen Khan fought with Dong Fox and was wiped out by his own side with 5,000 iron horsemen, there were still more than 10,000 horses under his command. And he only has more than 4,000 Liaodong iron cavalry, and the 5,000 infantry under his command have also killed and wounded nearly 2,000 people in the past few days, and the two families together do not exceed 8,000 people, how can they have the ability to ambush Tumen Khan?
And Yang Yuntong didn't believe that Tumen Khan would actually retreat such a thing. After all, according to his estimates, Tumen Khan's troops were much stronger than his own side, and now he had driven away Dong Fox. According to Tumen Khan's character of retribution, he will never retreat easily.
"Hehe, Brother Yang's analysis is really good, but Brother Yang, you forgot someone!" Li Rusong was not angry, he smiled and asked Yang Yuntong to sit down first, and he was not impatient.
"Brother Yang, don't forget, we still have Dong Fox's 'ally'! Although Dong Fox was defeated by Tumen Khan, it is estimated that only two or three thousand of the more than 10,000 people remained. But don't forget, the Duoyan tribe behind Dong Fox has tens of thousands of people who control the strings, and the second largest tribe in Mongolia after the barbarian tribe" As Li Rusong gradually peeled off the cocoon, Yang Yuntong's face began to show a hint of enlightenment.
In other words, Tumen Khan is now afraid that Dong Fox will return to the Mongolian steppe before himself and deal with his own tribe. So even if he still has an advantage now, he has to withdraw his troops" Yang Yuntong was not stupid, and quickly analyzed the reason for Tumen Khan's withdrawal.
"Little bunny, where are we going to ambush the barbarians? On the way to Hedong to join his subordinates, there was nothing suitable for an ambush along the way. Li Chengliang twisted his beard and said after a moment of silence.
"Hehe, I still need Brother Yang to help me in this matter! In order to protect the boy and the people of the Ming Dynasty, Yang Shuai fought viciously with the Mongolian Tatars in Hedong for dozens of days, how could he have to get thousands of Tartar heads? Li Rusong smiled, called Yang Yuntong and whispered in his ear, and the latter was suddenly full of joy.
"Well, don't worry, I have a carrier pigeon here, and there will be news from my brother after half the incense" Yang Yuntong smiled, walked out of the big tent, and sent a message to his brother Yang Zhao in Hedong.
As the night gradually enveloped the entire land of Liaodong, everything returned to tranquility again.
"Great Khan, everything is ready, you can retreat tomorrow" In the barbarian camp, Tumen Khan finally made up his mind to retreat, but considering that the night retreat was easy to be ambushed by the Ming army, he set the time of retreat at daytime the next day.
Where Tumen Khan is now, it is only a day's journey from Tuart's 30,000 iron horsemen who are fighting against the Ming Dynasty army in Hedong, and the distance is not very far, and it can even be said that they are horns of each other.
In the eyes of the scheming Tumen Khan, even if he only has 9,000 combatable iron cavalry now, the Ming army of Pingshanzhai will not be his opponent if he goes out of the city to fight. After all, he has lost more than 10,000 people in the past few days, and the Ming army must have suffered a lot of losses. I don't have to worry about being blocked by the Ming army during the day, I can lead the troops to retreat generously, and the only thing I need to guard against is the sneak attack and ambush of the Ming army at night.
At this time, the Mongolian iron cavalry against Yang Zhao's army in the east of the river:
As a henchman who Tumen Khan rescued from the pile of dead and cultivated step by step, Tultu's bravery, wisdom and loyalty are incomparable.
Originally, Yang Zhao planned to take advantage of the opportunity of Tumen Khan to lead the army to leave, play some small conspiracy or something, and bite a few pieces of meat on the Mongol army. It is a pity that Tuertu stubbornly defended the camp and never went deeper, ran with a bite, slipped away with a shot, and suffered almost no losses from his men and horses. On the contrary, Yang Zhao lost a lot of people who acted as bait, so he had to give up his plan to lure the enemy to annihilate him.
"A letter from the Khan?" At this time, Turtu was sitting upright in the big tent of the Chinese army, frowning, looking at an urgent letter sent by Tumen Khan.
The Mongols were fond of hunting, and almost every man was good at domesticating birds of prey such as falcons and sea dongqing, which could be used as hunting and leisure in leisure time, and were the best messengers in wartime.
Tonight, when it was just dark, Tumen Khan wrote a letter about his vicious battle with Dong Fox, Tulu's death, and his intention to withdraw his army, and sent the letter to Tuert with a falcon specially trained in the army.
"Damn it! Dong Fox, a treacherous brute, actually dared to plot against the Khan King! On the day of him I will personally lead the iron horsemen, and cut off his head, and offer it to the king of Khan to make a cup! After reading the letter carefully, Turtu slapped the table angrily and hissed angrily.
"General, what the hell is going on over there of the Great Khan?" Another Mongolian general, standing aside and frowning, asked, this person is about thirty years old, with a red face, tall and burly, and his face is full of fierceness and murderous aura, he is the second largest general in the army after Tuart.
"Anda! We mistakenly believed the cunning fox of Dong Fox and told him the news of the fierce battle between the Great Khan and the Ming army in Pingshanzhai, and this cunning fox actually led the army in person and secretly rushed to Pingshanzhai with the intention of disfavoring the Great Khan. Fortunately, the Great Khan saw everything and led the army to defeat Dong Fox's female thief" Standing up with a serious and angry face, Stuart first poured a glass of wine for Bai Buhua, and said through gritted teeth.
"What! Dong Fox, that guy who can only wag his tail behind the Great Khan and beg for mercy, relying on the help of my barbarian tribe, barely survives! He dared to betray my barbarians, and even intended to murder the Great Khan and the warriors of my barbarian tribe! I'm going to kill this guy! Bai Buhua is also a brother who is irritable and quick-tempered, and when he heard this, he directly pulled out his knife in his hand, waving the knife like thunder, and when he saw it, he planned to lead the troops to find Dong Fox for revenge.
"Anda, don't be impatient. Dong Fox has now fled to Mongolia, and we must hurry up with the Great Khan and rush back to the banner of King Zasak to prevent Dong Fox, a sinister and cunning fellow, from sneaking up on our women and cattle and sheep! Hurriedly stood up, holding down the irascible Bai Buhua, Stuart said in an extremely serious tone.
"Okay, Anda, what do you say! I worship that Buhua is a samurai who can only kill, you can just make up your mind" Both of them are good brothers who worship well, so Bai Buhua is also willing to obey Stuart's dispatch, and said after hearing this.
"Alas, what else can I do, the Great Khan plans to withdraw his troops from Pingshanzhai tomorrow, what we need to do is to move the camp tonight, rush to the only way from Pingshanzhai to Hedong, and prevent the Ming army from cutting off the way for the Great Khan to retreat" With a long sigh, Stuart tried to cheer up, patted Bai Buhua's shoulder and said heavily.
"Report to the General! The Ming army camp on the opposite side was restless, with torches, and the Ming army seemed to have a big operation! Suddenly, a centurion ran into the tent and reported in an anxious tone.
"What! You immediately lead your team of 100 people, take the initiative to approach the Ming army camp, and carefully find out what is going on! A bad thought flashed through his mind, and Stuart hurriedly ordered to explore again, while he and Bai Buhua hurriedly gathered 30,000 iron horsemen and prepared to set off for Pingshanzhai.
On the side of the Ming army:
"Hahaha, this Li Rusong is worthy of being the kid known as the King of Yama, this serial trick is really exquisite. The order went down, and the army rushed to Pingshanzhai by the main road, and it must be made with great fanfare, and the bigger the movement, the better, so that the Mongolian Tartars know the way! Let's also cut off the back road of Tumen Khan! Yang Zhao shook his gray beard and smiled heartily as he gave a new order.
Tens of thousands of Ming troops of the Hedong generation, under the orders of Yang Zhao, performed their duties one by one in an orderly manner and marched rapidly towards their respective goals.
Yang Zhaoqin led 8,000 cavalry and 12,000 infantry, carrying countless torches, and copied the road with great fanfare, just under the eyes of the Mongol army, and marched in the direction of Pingshanzhai.
The actions of the Ming army seemed to have no evasive meaning at all, and the movement of tens of thousands of troops looked extremely chaotic, and the people shouted and neighed at night, and the movement was extremely loud.
"Oops! It must be that the Ming army also has falcons and other messenger tools, Yang Zhao, the old horseman, learned about the fight between the Great Khan and Dong Fox, this is to take the opportunity to completely annihilate the people and horses under the command of the Great Khan and capture the Great Khan! When the news reached the Mongolian camp, Turt was shocked, Tumen Khan now only had 9,000 soldiers to fight, in case it was surrounded by the new army led by Yang Zhao and the Ming army in Pingshanzhai, it would be more dead and less alive.
Now it's too late to figure out why the Ming army is so fanfare, Tuart hurriedly called to worship Buhua, and after some anxious deliberation, the two decided that all the cavalry would march in a hurry, ahead of the Ming army, and rush to the Pingshanzhai Tumen Khan camp, and join forces with Tumen Khan to fight against the Ming army.
The two generals also didn't care about the problem that riding a horse in the middle of the night could easily injure the soldiers and horses, so the 30,000 iron horsemen discarded all the useless and heavy baggage and belongings, went into battle lightly, and hurried to the camp of Tumen Khan in Pingshanzhai.
In this way, in the dark night, the Mongols ignored the problems of rough roads and overgrown trees, and rushed to Pingshanzhai with torches one after another.
"Hehe, Rusong, this kid is really right! Tell Chen Zhaoxian to prepare to ambush the Mongol army! As soon as Yang Zhao received the information on the transfer of the Mongolian army, he was immediately happy, and immediately ordered the whole army to change its route, take a small road to Pingshanzhai, and at the same time order his subordinate Chen Zhaoxian to prepare to ambush the Mongolian army!
Pingshanzhai:
"Hehe, Yang Shuai's side is ready. Let's do it too, let's go and kick the butts of Tumen Khan's subordinates first" Pingshanzhai Li Chengliang and Li Rusong, father and son, are already dressed all over their bodies, ready to do goodbye, and are parting ways with Yang Yundao.
"Ha Lu Ha Li Gongzi, this time with your clever calculation, our old Yang can fight such a happy battle, don't worry! I'm sure I'll keep Stuart's men out of the way. As long as Yang is alive, you will not be in any danger" Yang Yuntong smiled heartily, and a trace of determination flashed in his words.
"Brother Yang, my father and son can trust you to do things. It doesn't have to be so, Tumen Khan's old miscellaneous hair was calculated by my son, and that is one word: death! In less than half an hour. Let's go and reinforce you! Li Chengliang smiled and patted Yang Yuntong on the shoulder and said.
"Brother Yang, be sure to come back alive, Rusong will follow you to seal the wolf Juxu!" Li Rusong walked over and said with a serious face.
"Ha Lu Ha, it's still Brother Li who understands my Lao Yang! Good! Our generation is waiting to follow Brother Li to seal the wolf and establish an immortal deed! Yang Yuntong let out a hearty laugh, then turned his head and carried a ghost-headed big knife, and led the three thousand six hundred men and horses under his command to disappear into the night.
"You must come back alive, my brothers!"
