Section 31 Plotting the Western Chagatai Khanate

Section 31 plotted the Western Chagatai Khanate

This decisive battle between the Central Plains Martial Arts and the Yuan Court finally came to an end after more than half a year. Although the final result was a small victory for the Central Plains Martial Arts, looking at the losses of both sides, no one got the slightest advantage, which can be described as a lose-lose.

At this point, neither side was able to fight again. Yuan Ting had to take back the evil masters who had survived by luck, and licked his wounds silently. The Central Plains Martial Arts was also unable to fight again, and they recalled the disciples one after another and began to recuperate.

Speaking of which, the biggest beneficiary of this war belongs to the king of Ruyang, although the masters he sent were not lightly injured, but no matter what, they managed to survive. After another year and a half of cultivation, there will be no big problem. Think about it, in the case of the loss of most of the evil masters recruited and enshrined by the Yuan Court, even if it is not visible at the moment, I believe that in the near future, the voice of the Ruyang Royal Mansion will become more and more important.

Although this war is over, Xie Wuji's plan to relocate the Hermes-Epitek continues, even if Zhuang Zheng and others were also injured in this war and need to recuperate with peace of mind, but the Five Elements Banner Altars in each province can still do their own thing, and of course, they can also assist in the implementation of the plan to relocate the Hermes-Epitek.

Yuan Ting naturally would not sit still, after more than half a year, their army had already been prepared. Speaking of which, Yuan Ting had never pinned all his hopes on those evil path masters, and as early as three months ago, the armies of the various provinces had been assembled. Now that the war has ended, the army of the Yuan Court will naturally come in handy.

The news reached the Eastern Chagatai Khanate, and in the face of this harsh situation, after the discussion of Xie Wuji and Liu Ji, it was decided to order the sub-altars of the provinces of the Five Elements Banner to launch an uprising in advance, so as to clamp down on the troops of the Mongol iron cavalry of the Yuan Court. However, as a result, the plan to relocate Hermes-Epitek had to be slowed down. If you want to continue to relocate Hermes-Epitek, the difficulty of operation will inevitably rise sharply.

Xie Wuji's order was transmitted back to the Central Plains, and the Five Elements Banner immediately took action, and within a month, the banner of the uprising was erected in the seven provinces. Immediately, the local benevolent people, as well as those poor people who were desperate, responded positively and actively participated. This made the rebel armies of these seven provinces quickly form a scale.

And the next development of the situation did not surprise Xie Wuji and others. The feat of the uprising of the Five Elements Banner in the seven provinces was like igniting the barrel of explosives in the arsenal, instantly detonating the Central Plains land, which was already surging undercurrent. Throughout the Central Plains, wolf smoke rose everywhere, and countless benevolent and righteous people rose up, determined to resist the tyranny of the Mongols and overthrow the rule of the Yuan court. This wave of uprising is like a spark that is out of control and unstoppable.

In the face of such a harsh situation, Yuan Ting was highly nervous, and his whole mind was involved, urgently deploying troops and horses, quelling chaos everywhere, and no longer had the energy to pay attention to others. Back then, the Mongolian iron cavalry under the command of Genghis Khan and Kublai Khan could be described as invincible in the world, how majestic and domineering. Today, although the Mongolian iron cavalry has long ceased to be invincible, but the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and there are still 3,000 nails in the broken boat. What's more, although the rebel armies in various places are huge, most of them are composed of a group of hungry people, and they have not undergone any formal training, how much combat power can they have? Therefore, as soon as the two sides clashed at the beginning of the year, the rebel armies in various places were defeated by the Yuanting army, and the suppressed ones could not raise their heads at all, and suffered heavy losses.

The battle situation was so unfavorable, Xie Wuji and the others, who were far away in the Eastern Chagatai Khanate, were not surprised, if the Yuan Court was really so unbearable, it would be a strange thing, and it would have been overthrown earlier. Moreover, Xie Wuji and others believe that this kind of defeat will not last long, and there will be a new turnaround soon.

Sure enough, after experiencing the initial defeat, the leaders of the rebel armies in various places immediately changed their tactics, no longer going to fight hard with the Yuanting army, but started a guerrilla war with the Yuanting army, and brought into full play the 16-character guiding principle of guerrilla warfare of "the enemy advances and I retreat, the enemy retreats and I disturb, the enemy is tired and I fight, and the enemy retreats and I pursue". Such a broad and profound tactic naturally came from Xie Wuji's handwriting, as early as when he ordered the Five Elements Banner to revolt, he had expected this situation, and of course he would leave behind. And it was the rebel army led by the Five Elements Banner that adopted this tactic first, which not only avoided heavy losses, but also exhausted the Yuan Ting army, but the effect was minimal.

The other rebels, seeing that this tactic was so effective, naturally began to follow suit and rushed to follow suit. This also caused a great obstacle to the Yuan Court's counter-rebellion army. Although the strength of the Yuan Court army still has an advantage, the righteous army is too slippery, and it does not fight with it at all, and takes them around in circles all day long, which makes the Yuan Court army have no place to go, and it is made into a mess, but it is helpless.

All in all, the war situation in the Central Plains is becoming more and more anxious, the Yuan Ting army and the rebels from all over the country, you come to crusade against me, I come to attack you, it can be said that there are victories and defeats for each other, but it is indeed more difficult to completely defeat the other party. In this way, a strange stalemate was formed between the Yuan Court and the rebel army.

At this time, Xie Wuji, who was far away in the Eastern Chagatai Khanate, would not be idle. Speaking of which, Xie Wuji's pace of expansion in the Western Regions had been stagnant for more than a year and a half, and now that the conditions were ripe in all aspects, the Yuan Court, which had attracted attention and vigilance from their occupation of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate, now had no time to take care of them, and they were naturally unwilling to delay any longer. So, Xie Wuji cast his piercing gaze on the Western Chagatai Khanate. For this reason, he also specially recalled the three generals Xu Da, Chang Yuchun and Deng Youde, who were training troops outside the city.

In the palace hall of Beshbali City, Xie Wuji, Liu Ji, Xu Da, Chang Yuchun, and Deng Youde sat in it, intending to discuss the plan of action for the next conquest of the Western Chagatai Khanate. Outside the council hall, a team of elite Five Elements Banners, who are also his current personal guards, are patrolling back and forth, closely monitoring the surrounding situation, and any disturbance cannot escape their eyes. Although Xie Wuji didn't believe that the current Yuan Court still had the energy to send people to spy on him, it was still essential to take necessary precautions just in case. As for whether the Western Chagatai Khanate would send someone to spy on intelligence, it was completely outside Xie Wuji's consideration.

In the conference hall, Xie Wuji took a sip of tea, looked at the four of them with a smile, and said with a smile: "Everyone, we have accumulated strength for more than a year and a half, and now that the time is finally ripe, it is time to discuss the next plan." ”

"Not bad." Liu Ji said: "In the past year and a half, our side has made great progress, a large number of Han people have migrated here, so that the population under our rule has surged, coupled with the strong economic strength brought by development, although we only have 35,000 troops, but as long as we need it, we can raise an army of 100,000 at any time, not to mention the conquest of the Western Chagatai Khanate, as long as it is planned properly, it is not without opportunities to take the other two khanates in the Western Regions." The most important thing is that now that Yuan Ting is too busy to take care of himself, even if our movement is bigger, it doesn't matter. Arguably, now is the best time to do so. ”

"So what are we waiting for? Send troops, and take the Western Chagatai Khanate first. Chang Yuchun's eyes lit up, and he couldn't wait to say.

Deng Youde was also a little excited, and said in a deep voice: "Tiger King, give the order, my big knife is already hungry and thirsty." ”

Xu Da was the most calm and calmly analyzed: "In the past year and a half, although our side has been accumulating strength, we have never relaxed our investigation of the Western Chagatai Khanate. From the results of the investigation, it seems that the situation of the Western Chagatai Khanate is stronger than the divided Eastern Chagatai Khanate that was previously taken by our side, at least the Western Chagatai Khanate has always maintained unity, but it is also limited in strength. With our current army of 35,000, it is easy to take the Western Chagatai Khanate. After a pause, the conversation changed, and he frowned again: "However, according to the investigation, the mountain gate of the King Kong Gate is within the territory of the Western Chagatai Khanate, and they will definitely not sit idly by and watch our side capture the Western Chagatai Khanate." After all, our two sides are inherently hostile, and the Vajra Gate is well aware that if the Western Chagatai Khanate is captured by us, they will no longer have a foothold. ”

Liu Ji echoed: "Yes, this is also what I am more worried about. Not only in the Western Chagatai Khanate, but also in the entire Western Regions, the Vajra Gate can be called one of the most powerful forces. Although in the previous Central Plains War, the King Kong Gate suffered heavy losses, which can be said to have hurt the muscles and bones. But even so, I believe that the Vajra Gate must also have a hole card that we don't know, or it is more appropriate to say that it is the foundation. Therefore, for the Vajra Gate, we must pay attention to it again. ”

"Exaggerated, isn't it?" Deng Youde asked in disbelief: "It is rumored that the King Kong Gate was only created by the Shaolin outcast fire foreman Tuo, and the creation of the sect is less than a hundred years old, how can it be so strong?" ”

Xie Wuji shook his head and said, "Youde, you underestimate the King Kong Gate. Although the fire foreman Tuo is a Shaolin outcast, his talent is so high that even my master is amazed. Of course, the four of them knew who the master in Xie Wuji's mouth was, and that was the great master who was respected by everyone in the world. After a pause, Xie Wuji frowned slightly, and continued: "Moreover, at the beginning of the establishment of the King Kong Gate, the fire foreman Tuo subdued many small sects in the Western Regions, as well as those evil masters, plus the cornerstone of his founding school, or the decision of the foreign exercises in the seventy-two stunts of Shaolin, and then after nearly a hundred years of running-in, whether it is the background or the strength, it should not be underestimated. If the King Kong Gate is placed in the Central Plains, compared with the six major schools of the righteous path, although there is still a gap with Shaolin Wudang, it is not weaker than the other four. ”

"This ......" After listening to Xie Wuji's explanation, Deng Youde and the four of them looked at each other, and only then did they really understand the hot hand of King Kong Gate.

"But you don't have to worry too much." Xie Wuji smiled indifferently, changed his words, and said with confidence: "Although the King Kong Gate is not weak, but after the losses of the previous war, the current King Kong Gate is indeed no longer so difficult to deal with...... Even if the Vajra Gate intends to back down, I will not let them go. There is an old reckoning between us...... And, in the Vajra Gate, there is another treasure that I must obtain. Therefore, no matter what, this King Kong Gate must be taken. ”

Chang Yuchun said with a smile: "Since the Tiger King has become a bamboo in his chest, I naturally don't have to think about the King Kong Gate anymore." I also ask the Tiger King to give an order, and we will take the Western Chagatai Khanate in one fell swoop. When it comes to confidence in Xie Wuji, Chang Yuchun has never thought secondly, in his mind, as long as it is something that Xie Wuji should inherit, it will not be finished at all.

"Please give the Tiger King's order!" Xu Da and Deng Youde applied for the battle together.

Seeing that the three of them were high-spirited and confident, Xie Wuji and Liu Ji looked at each other and smiled, and under Xie Wuji's signal, Liu Ji looked solemn and explained Xie Wuji and the battle plan he had formulated in detail. After that, Xu Da, Chang Yuchun, and Deng Youde respectively raised their own questions and supplements, and after some heated discussions, finally in the evening, the operational plan for attacking Xichagatai was completely perfected.

Two days later, Chang Yuchun and Deng Youde, each led 10,000 soldiers and horses under their command, and went straight to the border of the Western Chagatai Khanate. The Western Chagatai Khanate received the news as soon as it could, and could not help but be greatly frightened, and began to actively prepare for war.

However, the Western Chagatai Khanate has been decaying for a long time, and the domestic army has been in storage. In the face of the menacing army of Chang Yuchun and Deng Youde, how long can it be resisted, you can imagine.

Half a month later, the two-way army of Chang Yuchun and Deng Youde officially entered the territory of the Western Chagatai Khanate. Immediately, the attention of the entire Western Chagatai Khanate was drawn to the past. But they didn't realize that another 5,000 elite army, under the personal command of Xie Wuji, silently left Beshbali City, and quietly sneaked into the territory of the Western Chagatai Khanate from another direction, and went out day and night, heading straight for the black sand city. Although this city was not the royal city of the Western Chagatai Khanate, it was also the second largest city, and most importantly, it was the location of the mountain gate of the Vajra Gate. Speaking of which, only the King Kong Gate is worthy of Xie Wuji and his personal guards, that is, the elite of the original Five Elements Banner.

In this expedition to the Western Chagatai Khanate, Xu Da and the 10,000 troops under his command were not in the sequence of battles. This is due to the fact that the Eastern Chagatai Khanate must have people to sit in person to deter the small, and it also has to bear the heavy responsibility of supporting the front line at any time and at the fastest speed. Originally, Xie Wuji, as the supreme leader, should be in the rear, but because he wanted to exterminate the King Kong Gate this time, except for Xie Wuji, no one else could bear such a heavy responsibility, Xu Da couldn't, Chang Yuchun and Deng Youde naturally couldn't either. Therefore, the people left behind must be selected from Xu Da, Chang Yuchun and Deng Youde, in contrast, Xu Da is the most calm and calm, and he is indeed the best candidate.
