There were 300 Ming troops stationed in Hulunbuir Fort, because of the limited housing in the city, all the Ming troops withdrew, stationed in the east of the fort, and gave the city to the Ming Zhongshun King - Shuo Lei, as well as his heirs, personal guards, and the heads of the vassal tribes of the Chechen Department.

Shuo Lei originally felt that the Ming army was too polite to do this, but at this moment it was the first fortress to go south, and he still needed to dress up with a "loyal" appearance, so he agreed. Compared with the tents on the grassland, neat houses, warm soft beds, and silky satin bedding ...... Nature has an irresistible charm.

On this night, under the warm hospitality of the Ming army's garrison generals, Shuo Lei and his three sons, as well as his generals and the leaders of various tribes, were all elated, as if they were really brothers with each other.

When everyone was drunk, the major of the Ming Army, who was accompanying the wine, suddenly sobered up, his eyes were clear, and he didn't look like he had drunk at all. While asking the guards to change him with epaulettes and reinstate his identity as a colonel of the Ming Army, he pushed his colleague who was lying on the desk next to him: "Lao Zhao, just two bowls of drunkenness?" ”

Only the first two bowls of wine in the Ming army were real wine, and the next ones were water. Even so, Zhao Wei, chief of staff of the Second Division of the Second Guards Army, was drunk because he was too drunk to drink.

Zhao Wei also woke up after being pushed a few times by the division commander Chang Zhifan, and his eyes were still bloodshot.

"You weren't so easy to fall like this in the past." Chang Zhifan said with a smile.

"I've stayed up late these days, so I took the opportunity to sleep first." Zhao Wei stood up, rubbed his face, and changed his epaulette.

Because the rank of the stationed officer was too high, it would arouse the suspicion of Shuo Base, so the two of them appeared as majors and captains, which was suitable for commanding a garrison of almost 300 people. However, this is the main battlefield of the Second Army's intention to completely encircle and annihilate the Chechen elite of the Shuo Base Division, and the Ming army lurking in the city has a thousand headquarters.

Moreover, this thousand headquarters is the earliest horse exploration battalion established in imitation of the special investigation battalion in various armies, and the battalion officer Ma Ming is a veteran who has fought all his life. It is the most suitable for this kind of combat mission where the enemy is not prepared.

The rest of the 2nd Division was distributed 20 miles away from Fort Hulunbuir. This distance is suitable for running, and not to be detected by the Mongol scouts - these days Shuo Lei has not even released the scouts, because he has to play the role of a hospitable master, a loyal vassal, if he is still far away in his own land. This is undoubtedly very suspicious.

The old fox thought of all kinds of details and made them up, the only thing he didn't expect was that his eldest son's greed had reached the point of killing his father.

"When will you do it?" Zhao Wei asked.

"Wait until the outside controls the Mongol horses." Chang Zhifan put on a cloak, and the night breeze on the grassland was still a little cool. As he walked out, he said, "In this steppe, no horse is the same as no legs." This is still Shuo Lei himself, now let's cut off his leg first. ”

Zhao Wei followed, knowing that this was also a part of the plan. However, he is not optimistic about whether this can be successful, everyone knows that the Mongols regard their horses as more important than their wives, and will let the unknown friends and enemies of the Ming groom help herd the horses? In his opinion. The easiest way is to send someone to secretly poison the horse's drinking water and bean feed, and it won't take much to make all the Mongolian horses collapse.

However, this plan was not approved by the military department because of the destruction of the "booty", and finally two plans were prepared: first, let the horsemen gather the Mongols' war horses and pull out the range of the Mongols; Secondly, let the other troops of the 2nd Division, as well as the 3rd Division, which came to reinforce them, besiege the Mongolian camp outside the city, so that they would not dare to act rashly.

The key is the first step, whether you can successfully drive the herd away.

Chang Zhifan climbed to the top of the city and looked at the tents dotted with grasslands outside. There was no sound at the moment. Although the chieftains drank inside, the Mongols outside did not drink at all. Shuo Lei said that they were not worthy of drinking. In fact, I still secretly prepared for it.

If the Ming army took out enough wine for 10,000 horses to drink in a military fort where grain and grass were stored, it was undoubtedly too fake, so it did not expect to solve the Mongol army outside the city in a tricky way.

In the previous military discussion, the 1,000 men in the city were to defend the city until dawn to ensure that the 3rd Division had enough time to attack and defeat the Mongol soldiers.

Chang Zhifan touched the cold cannon body. Quite confident in this.

From this position, the Ming artillery was able to cover the Mongolian tents outside the city, and even without considering the damage of ricochets, just eight Type 19 heavy guns were enough to make the Mongols feel terrified. What's more, in order to make it easier to defend the city. There are also 100 tiger squat cannons in the city, which are also extremely lethal for the Mongolian cavalry without iron armor.

Just when Chang Zhifan was waiting patiently, he suddenly found that a small light burst in the Mongolian camp outside the city.

Somewhere suddenly there were more torches, and more and more flames were pouring from all over the camp towards it.

"What's going on?" Chang Zhifan was stunned: This was obviously an unplanned accident.

Sure enough, not long after, a scout horse arrived at the city, was hanged up to the city, ran to Chang Zhifan and said: "Sir, the Mongols did not allow our horseman to lead the horse, so kill him." ”

It is understandable to be rejected, but directly killing people with a knife made Chang Zhifan quite stunned.

"I can't wait, let's do it first." Zhao Wei said: "They must be making trouble to enter the city to inform Shuo Lei about this, if we stop them from entering the city, it will inevitably provoke drastic changes." ”

Chang Zhifan nodded and said, "Let Ma Ming do it!" Capture Shuolei and his sons alive, and as for the leaders of those small tribes, those who dare to resist will be killed! ”

The scattered tribes of the steppe are like stars in the night sky, especially the Khalkha Mongols, who have gathered together on the basis of geography rather than blood. Those small tribal leaders do not have great appeal, and once they die, maybe their wives and children will return to other families the next day, so they are of no use to Da Ming.

Only a Khan king like Shuolei still has something to use.

……

"Father Khan, something seems wrong." Babu collapsed on the soft bed for a while, and suddenly woke up with a chill. He found Father Khan's room, knocked on the door, and said bluntly. However, when he saw that his father was dressed neatly, and knew that his father was also very guarded, his heart instantly settled down.

"The Ming army seems to be alert." Shuo Lei said: "That major has an extraordinary bearing, a flamboyant expression, and is obviously a proud person. Such a person will not succumb to a small fort. ”

"Father Khan, ...... now"

"Don't worry, I've already sent someone to find the Ming army to ask for a woman." Shuo Lei Road.

"Want a woman?" Babu Yiqi, his father is already old, and he has long been out of the beauty of the lucky clan, how could he think of asking for a woman at this juncture.

"This is a military fort, and there will definitely be no women." Shuo Lei explained as if educating his son: "So I got up after drinking, and it was not abrupt to go out of the city to find a woman with the strength of wine." ”

"What if the Ming army doesn't let us go?" Babu's heart tightened, and he unconsciously touched the hilt of the knife at his waist.

"Then we'll break through!" Shuo Lei narrowed his eyes: "I have already arranged the guards outside the city, once there is movement inside, they will attack the fort gate, we should cooperate inside and outside, I don't believe that dozens of Ming troops can defend it." ”

The reason why Shuo Lei dared to enter the city with confidence was also because he mistakenly thought that there were only a few dozen Ming troops in the city, but there were 300 people on his side.

In order to dispel Shuolei's doubts, Chang Zhifan also took Babu and several Mongolian chiefs to visit all the buildings in the city that could be Tibetan, especially the barn, before Shuolei entered the city in the afternoon.

Of course, as for the sacks in the barn, especially the sacks on the second and third floors, it was impossible to leave them open for the Báb to inspect.

That was the way the Ming army was able to hide in the city.

"Father Khan, listen!" Babu suddenly lowered his voice and concentrated his breath, fearing that his coarse breathing would affect his father's hearing.

Shuo Lei obviously heard something too, listened attentively, and looked suspicious: "It's outside the city, it seems that something has happened." ”

The two of them were about to walk outside the courtyard when they suddenly heard a sound of neat footsteps that made people shudder and the rustle of their clothes and pants as they went.

Bang!

The two panels of the courtyard gate were pushed open, and a group of Ming army armor soldiers walked in front of them, each holding a spear, and the tip of the spear was still shining with cold light.

The officer of the Ming army who came in was nearly half a hundred years old, and the two silver star emblems on his shoulders shone in the firelight.

"I heard that the prince wants a woman to sleep." Ma Ming sneered. His family had been fighting the Mongols for generations, and his hatred of the Mongols even exceeded his hatred for the Eastern captives.

Shuo Lei instantly understood that he had fallen into the trap of the cunning Han people. He took a deep breath and suddenly shouted loudly, "Someone! ”

The spears raised by the Ming army were flattened, and the soldiers scattered left and right, surrounded for a month and a half, ready to attack at any time.

"They can't come anymore." Ma Ming took a long time.

Shuo Lei regretted that he had arranged all the guards outside the small courtyard, and now he only had one son by his side.

And, of course, several larger vassal tribal heads who lived in the same courtyard.

These leaders heard the movement outside, and came out of their houses one after another, and were instantly frightened by the tense atmosphere.

Ma Ming said loudly: "Those who surrender on their knees will not die!" Resist the destruction of the Heavenly Soldiers! As soon as his voice fell, the soldiers of the Ming army let out a threatening sound in unison and took a step forward.

"Those who surrender on their knees will not die! Resist the destruction of the Heavenly Soldiers! Ma Ming changed his Mongolian language and shouted again.

This time, there was no movement on the side of the Ming army, but the little head behind Shuo Lei knelt on the ground and surrendered and begged for mercy.

These leaders all had the intention of eating meat and drinking soup with Shuo Lei, and seeing that the wind was turning sharply, they were unwilling to accompany Shuo Lei's funeral.

There is everything in the Mongolian steppes, but there has never been such a thing as "loyalty".

Poof!

Shuo Lei saw that the shape was unfavorable, and he also knelt down neatly. (To be continued......)
