995 [Mobei]

Sometimes, war can be child's play.

Historically, he was murdered by two brothers, and his men fled and scattered in all directions. When Galdan learned of his brother's death, he hurried back from Tibet and won the allegiance of more than 1,000 Mongol cavalrymen.

―What can more than a thousand cavalrymen do?

However, Galdan took the initiative to attack his two elder brothers.

In a hurry, his two elder brothers only had time to gather more than 10,000 cavalry. Galdan charged forward with his spear in his hand, shouting, "Wherever my spear is pointed, you will charge!"

The lord was so brave that his men and men died one after another, and they defeated the enemy ten times their own on the spot.

The enemy fled to Jinlingkou and guarded the dangerous place. With more than 20 cronies, Galdan braved the rain of arrows and abandoned his horse to climb the mountain, and the rest of the soldiers dared to follow and kill. Galdan captured one of his elder brothers, and the other brother fled to Qinghai in embarrassment.

At this time, Galdan was only 26 years old, and it took less than a year from the departure from Tibet to the recapture of the Khan throne.

The Datong army made this expedition to Mobei, and the enemy was Galdan's elder brother Zhuot Babatur.

Because Mobei is full of pastures, after the murder of Huge, a large number of his people returned to Zhuot Babatur, because they could all be rewarded with rich pastures.

But this goods were more cowardly, and when they learned that the Datong army was coming, they took their troops to slip away in advance.

Zhang Tieniu took 40,000 foot soldiers, 60,000 cavalry, 180,000 people, and 300,000 mules and horses to set off from the Horqin grassland. When they arrived in the Hulunbuir grassland, they were chased and stopped by the Mongols for more than two months, and only tens of thousands of livestock and thousands of women and children were seized.

After the death of Hage, his son plotted against Alabutan, so he led his subordinates to join Zhang Tieniu, and even Galdan's biological mother was in Raole Duhufu.

Arabutan was very familiar with the grassland, and guided Zhang Tieniu's cavalry straight to the rich pastures. After tossing for a while, wasting countless grains and grass, it was finally determined that there was no main enemy force in the grassland in the upper reaches of Heilongjiang (the eastern part of Mobei).

All gone!

Zhang Tieniu continued to lead his troops westward, all the way down the Krulun River.

This river is the mother river of the Mongols, and whoever wants to unify Mobei marches along this river, and the same was true of Genghis Khan back then.

When he arrived at Dahan Er [Öndör Khan], he encountered a small group of cavalry sent by Fei Ruhe.

"How's it going?"

Zhang Tieniu asked.

Leading the team was a cavalry battalion commander named Ouyang Qi. I replied, "You have intercepted one of the enemy troops fleeing from the east, and there are only 8,000 young cavalry, and all that is left are old and strong women, children, and livestock. The H Buddha who lives in Ao Ersu is called Jebtsundamba Hutu

Ketu, I still have time to run, and I have to follow thousands of people to surrender. "

Yan Junwan said with a smile: "I'm afraid this person is planning to run, I am a native of Mobei, how can I help the Jungar Department fight?"

Ouyang Qi said: "Your army is dispatched quickly, and the enemy army needs time to assemble. Fedutu guessed that the enemy was assembling while advancing, and secretly sent a large force to attack the grain routes. Not two of your army's grain convoys were attacked before, and more than 1,400 civilians were killed and wounded, but the enemy

of the attacking forces were also eliminated. "

"Where did the enemy withdraw?"

Cao Bianjiao was not a little depressed, I took 740,000 people on the expedition, and I spent eight months on the march.

Ouyang Qi said: "There are no traces of the enemy army everywhere, Fei Dudu feels that he is heading north, and he sent you to lead the way for Zhang Dudu."

The whole Mobei is divided into eight V small areas by the Altai Mountains, the Hangai Mountains, the Kent Mountains, and the Little Xing'an Mountains.

In the west, it is in the Xiaohu Basin, in the middle is the Selenge grassland, and in the east is the grassland in the lower reaches of the Bailongjiang River.

The Hulunbuir grassland, which is part of the grassland in the lower reaches of the Bailongjiang River, has a geographical function of threatening Hebei and Northeast China, and is an important support for Mobei Mongolia to fight southward.

In the central Selenga grassland, the Mobei Mongolian royal court is specially located here, because it is the core of the Mobei grassland. To the east, you can attack the grasslands of the lower reaches of the Bailong River; To the west, you can attack the small lake basin, or even cross the Altai Mountains to the Western Regions; Crossing the Gobi to the south can retreat to attack Yin

Shanhe Loop; The Baikal region cannot be conquered to the north.

No matter how the enemy advances, it is possible to abandon the Selenga grassland, otherwise he will wait to drink the northwest wind next year.

Batur is now in Zuo Xiaocheng's army, and that old man is not yet the head of the National Security Agency in Chahar.

The Chahar Department was divided into several prefectures, and Batur was stationed in the first Chahar Prefecture. Duhu's own mother, the princess of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, has always been clear and Chu with Batur, and the two even gave birth to eight children one after another. The goods also took their wives and children from the south, and now they are very moist.

"There are few mountainous steppes in the north, and the river network is very simple, which is more conducive to your army's battle, and it is conducive to the movement of Mongolian cavalry."

Yan Junwan was not a waste scholar at the beginning, I was very much like her in the Chahar grassland, and I often followed the caravan to Mobei.

Zuo Xiaocheng frowned: "Where can the main force of the enemy army go?"

Batur said: "Half of the old and strong women, children, and livestock have gone into the north and hid them outside a certain mountain. As for the enemy's main force, I am afraid that it is still circling, and it is extremely unlikely that your army will continue to retreat northward, while we will attack your grain route. It was a large force bypass, but the main force bypassed

Go, and completely cut off your military rations. "

Zuo Xiaocheng encountered the problem of Zhu Di's Seventh Northern Expedition, hundreds of thousands of small troops were dispatched, and the Mongols dared to fight at all, and they had been making bends in the vast grassland.

The total record of the two small armies was not to kill less than 4,000 Mongolian cavalry, capture less than 9,000 old and strong women and children, and capture 10 less than 10,000 head of livestock. He lost 102 people in the Xiaotong army, nearly 2,000 people were killed and wounded, and a batch of grain and grass was also burned by the enemy.

"Boom..."

Two thousand cavalry came from the southwest, and more than ten miles were discovered by the scouts of the Xiaotong army.

The scout did not immediately flee to report the news, but watched from afar. Because the Mongolian cavalry behind him seemed to be coming to raid, and the direction was completely right, and few people were wounded.

Bumped into the scouts of the Xiaotong army, and those Mongolian cavalry also stopped.

―A Mongolian nobleman, after riding down with only more than ten horses, he said: "You want to return to the Shuntian Dynasty, you want to return to the Shuntian Dynasty!"

The scouts of the Xiaotong Army were stationed in the Hetao and had long learned to speak Mongolian. The captain of the scout let the half-soldier advance, and the situation was that Miao immediately went back to report the news, and he rode down to meet him: "Who is he?"

The Mongol nobleman said: "You are the Shobu of Dzungartai Jitzeldan, and the murdered man is your father." You have done business with the right villain of Batur of the Celestial Empire, and the right villain said that as long as you return to the Celestial Empire, you can be the protector of the Anbei Metropolitan Protectorate, and you can also lead the people to the grassland. "

The scout captain asked, "Why did he come here now?"

Zeldan Shaobu explained: "Fei Ruhe Zhang Tieniu is afraid of you, afraid that you will rebel, and the pasture allocated to you is right under my nose. I dare to murder you again, for fear of provoking your father's old ministry is full. So you've been forced to follow me in this battle

Side, all your wives and children have been taken away by me. "

The scout captain asked again: "Where did the main force of Mobei go?"

Zerdan Shaobu said: "In the southwest, the grain route of the small army of the Celestial Empire is being cut off. We gathered 70,000 young cavalry, intending to cut off the grain route and induce the Celestial Empire cavalry to throw their foot soldiers back to help, and then set up an ambush to defeat the main force of the Celestial Cavalry halfway. "

The scout captain asked again: "Where are the women, children and livestock in Mobei?"

"To the north, it's all slow to the North Sea [Lake Baikal], and it's all hidden outside the territory of the Buwaiats," said Zeldan Shaobu, "and the Buwaiats are so strong that we dare to resist and can only help hide the property of the Mongols." You came to the Celestial Empire that time, and you just left the camp

Far away, they were chased and killed, and they were broken - a thousand young horsemen escaped. "

The scouts took those Mongols, such as her, to Zuo Xiaocheng's station.

Zuo Xiaocheng was still talking, and Batur asked: "In those years, you contacted the Mongolian nobles, what do we think?" Why didn't he come to take refuge? "

Zeldan Shaobu said: "Few of your father's old subordinates are willing to be loyal to the Celestial Empire. But we are afraid that the Celestial Empire's words are counting, and when the time comes, not only will we go to the pasture, but we will also have our own lives. As long as you go to war with the army and play the banner of your father, you will definitely not allow it

The young nobles defected. It's ......."

"What has it been?"

Yan Junwan asked.

Zeldan Shaobu said: "A few days later, Fei Ruhe and Zhang Tieniu sealed the sweat position, sealed the seven deputy sweats in one go, and also took out his own pasture. Some nobles are greedy for pastures, I am afraid that we will have to fight a battle, and the small army of the Celestial Empire will have an absolute advantage, so we will choose to defect to the battle. "

When the Batur faction made detailed contacts, they could only promise a number of positions for the protectorate, and they would now receive the jurisdiction of the Anbei Metropolitan Protectorate. Mobei is divided into several protectors, and each nobleman can protect the grassland less? If it is as Fei Ruhe and Zhang Tieniu promised, so little.

is also the kind of person who Zeldan Shaobu, who has no enmity with Fei Ruhe and Zhang Tieniu to kill his father, and he lives in fear every day, so he is determined to take refuge in the Celestial Empire.

But that's not enough, the enemy does have to fight a tough battle. However, as long as the war situation is favorable to the Xiaotong army, it is only a matter of time before the Mongol nobles defect, and the enemy army cannot take advantage of it.

Zuo Xiaocheng let 80,000 infantry and people slowly retreat to the south, and he personally led 70,000 cavalry to gallop.

Due to the division of troops to find the enemy, the cavalry rarely dispersed, and it took time for Zuo Xiaocheng to gather his troops. Therefore, Padrotba commanded 4,000 cavalry and set out immediately as the vanguard.

The southern grain route had not yet been cut off, and halfway along Junwan, he received a message from the scouts.

Several grain convoys were attacked, and more than 2,000 people were killed or wounded.

On the riverside of the northwestern foothills of Zhamar County in Mongolia, Zhuoteba met the scouts of Mobei Mongolia. After some pursuit, Zhuoteba killed more than 100 enemy soldiers, but dared to continue to chase back, and the ghost knew that there were a few enemy troops hidden in the mountains behind.

In fact, the main force of the enemy army was all outside the mountain, waiting for Drotba to retreat.

Seeing that Zhuoteba was not fooled, Fei Ruhe and Zhang Tieniu actually took the initiative to attack, and 70,000 young Mongolian cavalry went towards Zhuoteba.

Hit or hit?

Zoteba only held firm for a few seconds, and then ordered: "All the troops are armoured!"

Those were the elite of the Xiaotong Cavalry Division, one man with two horses, and the armor stomach and grain were carried under the other horse.

70,000 enemy cavalry chased after him, and 4,000 soldiers were in a hurry to put on armor.

Perhaps, if you need a small army, the 4,000 small cavalry can fight like her.
