There were 30,000 cavalry in Northern Turkistan, but most of them were in the hands of the general Hadamu. As the former general of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, Hadamu was merged into the Northern Turks along with the remnants of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, and he was arrogant and arrogant, and he was only responsible for garrisoning, not obeying orders, and would not easily send away 20,000 troops.

The people of Northern Turks are good at riding and shooting, but not everyone is qualified to be called cavalry, first of all, the army has high requirements for war horses, speed, strength and endurance are indispensable, and the horses that meet this requirement are already one in a hundred, and the requirements of the Northern Turkistan cavalry are more stringent than ordinary military horses, which is why there are only 50,000 cavalry in the entire Northern Turkistan.

Fifty thousand sounds like a lot, but compared to hundreds of thousands of infantry, it is still far behind.

However, on the other hand, the combat power of the Northern Turkistan cavalry is amazing, and it is also inseparable from their strict and almost perverted war horse standards.

The 50,000 cavalry of the Northern Turkistan, in addition to the 30,000 in the hands of Hadam, the remaining 20,000 were scattered in other units to cooperate with the infantry to fight.

"Didn't Hadamu's soldiers and horses have Yan Shaohai watching, how could they come to Chijinwei for no reason?" Wang Zhixian frowned and asked, but no one dared to answer. Whatever the reason, the change of the enemy's 20,000 horses, but the generals did not know about it, this matter is a serious dereliction of duty, and no one is willing to risk being implicated to excuse him.

The new emperor glanced around, saw that these old fritters had no reaction, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and then said: "No matter what the reason, let Yan Shaohai lead his troops to reinforce the Chijin Guard, and then go with the soldiers of the Red Jin Guard to cut off Agudam's back road." ”

Before the order could be delivered, a familiar scene happened again:

"Report!" The third postman rushed up to the main hall.

"Where is the Northern Turk attacking again?"

No matter how good Wang Zhixian's temper is, he will go crazy, the Northern Turkistan army is full of gangs, and the internal fighting has been repeatedly banned, and this Agudamu has been succeeded to the throne for less than a month, and he has integrated the Northern Turkistan army, and then attacked the Central Plains, and he has also succeeded for less than a month, but he is restricted everywhere, and can only do the work of making up for the dead. In contrast, Wang Zhixian was inevitably a little frustrated in his heart.

The post guard was very surprised, and couldn't help but secretly praise in his heart, the emperor deserves to be the emperor, and he didn't need to ask to know that it was the Northern Attack, it is estimated that the emperor knew what he thought in his heart, and he wanted to die.

"Your Majesty, the 30,000-strong army of Northern Tu surrounded the Western Shaanxi Xingdu Division, and set up bows and crossbows on the periphery, besieging but not attacking."

At this moment, Wang Zhixian, who had already opened the border map, couldn't help but gasp, south of Liangzhou Wei is the Great Wall, north of the Qilian Mountains, the mountain range spans the Chijin Guard, the West Shaanxi Xing Division, and the Liangzhou Wei three guards, if you want to support the Chijin Wei, there is only one way to go through the West Shaanxi Xing Division, and there are not many things that can restrain the cavalry, and the bow and crossbow happen to be one of them.

This move by Northern Turkistan was undoubtedly to prevent Yan Zhenhai from leading his cavalry westward to support.

Yan Shaohai is a fierce general, he can only rely on less than 20,000 cavalry in his hands, to contain nearly 30,000 cavalry of Hadamu, so that he does not dare to exceed the promulgation for five years, his ability to lead the troops, people have to admire, but at this moment he is like an ant on a hot pot.

Just two days ago, Hadamu's troops suddenly began the exercise, the momentum was extremely huge, the sound of iron hooves shook the sky, and the thick smoke billowed on the field.

At night, Yan Shaohai sent several scouts to investigate the enemy's situation, and got a shocking news: the opponent's soldiers and horses were now less than 5,000, and the momentum during the day was just pretended, they tied branches to the tail of the horse, splashed dust in the sky to block the view, and the sound of horses' hooves was also artificially faked.

Yan Shaohai, who finally came back to his senses, hurriedly spread out the map, and his years of combat experience told him that Hadamu's move was extremely risky, and he definitely wanted to solve it quickly.

Liangzhou Wei to the west is Chijin Wei, to the east is Xining Zhongwei, the other party is very likely to send cavalry to these two places, so Yan Shaohai hurriedly ordered his scouts to divide into two roads, one to the west and the other to the east, until the afternoon of the next day, the two scouts returned one after another.

"General Yu, my subordinates have traveled all the way to Xining Zhongwei, and there is nothing abnormal."

"General Yu, Chijinwei has been surrounded by the Northern Turkistan army."

"Sure enough, what a trick to hide from the world!" Yan Shaohai slapped the table, "Order to assemble and march into the Red Jin Guard!"

The 20,000-strong army was quickly assembled, and Yan Shaohai stood on his horse in armor, "Let's go!" The army rushed westward, and there was no murmur except for the sound of neat iron hooves. At this time, he only felt anxious in his heart, this time he delayed the military plane, and he was inevitably punished, so he could only work hard to reduce his losses.

On the way forward, Yan Shaohai did not forget to glance at his sister on the side, "Rongrong, this mission is very dangerous, so don't follow you." ”

Yan Rongrong pouted dissatisfiedly: "Brother, I am no longer a child, and I also have a military position." ”

Looking at Yan Rongrong's mountain armor, which only a hundred households were qualified to wear, Yan Shaohai didn't say anything more, and turned to look ahead.

The 20,000 soldiers and horses went all the way to the west, and except for a break on the way, the rest of the time was used for hurrying. After a day and a night of galloping, they finally arrived at the periphery of the Red Jin Guard.

At this time, outside the city wall of the Chijin Guard, the black pressure has surrounded the Northern Turkistan army, the Northern Turkistan army is very easy to identify, because of the lack of cloth, so they are usually dressed in animal skins, as nomads, they are even more bowed.

And this is also the most tricky place, the Northern Turks' army has a bow and a scimitar, of which the bow is the natural enemy of the cavalry, and now the 30,000 Northern Turks' troops are all in battle, obviously waiting for the 20,000 cavalry of Yan Shahai.

The dust raised by 20,000 war horses quickly attracted the attention of the Northern Turks scouts, and after the news reached the Northern Turkistan camp, the 30,000 troops of the Northern Turkistan army immediately changed their formations and formed an echelon.

Yan Shaohai saw the enemy's movement from afar, and immediately stopped the war horse to keep his side out of range.

No infantry could withstand a single round of charge, but no cavalry could withstand several volleys, and with a plain between the two sides, either side would lose the first hand if they rushed to attack.

"Brother, what should I do?" Yan Rongrong also saw that something was wrong, and the other party even prepared several giant ballistas, which were useless for siege, but specialized in cavalry weapons, were clearly prepared for them.

"Let's take a look at the form first and see if we can find an opportunity."

Yan Shaohai was also very helpless, the other party besieged the Chijin guard and did not attack, but instead stretched his bow and arrows outside, making it clear that it was aimed at himself, since it was targeted, don't think about it if you don't take off your skin.

"Dismount and set up camp!" Yan Shaohai immediately ordered.

The cavalry has been running for a day and a night, both men and horses have reached their limit, and a rest can not only restore physical strength, but also rest and wait for work.
