Hearing his grandfather's words, he hurried to receive the order and turned to leave.

And after leaving first, Mahamu slowly turned to look at the Tatar Khan in front of him.

"Don't spend it, now is not the time to care about what I said, the most important thing now is not to let the Ming army build the second city."

"If you think that at this time, we have to fight among ourselves first, you will continue to make trouble."

Listening to Na Mahamu's words, the Tatar Khan was not an unreasonable person.

Although Na Mahamu did not admit that this was a problem of his own command, it could be regarded as a moderate show of weakness.

Now they still need to rely on Mahamu to command the overall situation, and they can only put this matter aside for the time being and never mention it again.

After looking at the expressions of the people present, Na Mahamu immediately led people to the map, picked up a baton from the side and pointed at the location of Baihaier Lake on the map and said: "This is Baihaier Lake, this is the location of the first city built by the Ming army, what kind of situation will be formed once the two cities are connected?" ”

Listening to Na Mahamu's words, after everyone present looked at each other, they carefully observed the situation on the map according to Na Mahamu's words.

It's just that I don't know if I don't see it, and I'm shocked when I see it.

The two cities were connected by a line that completely cut the north and south of their Tatar region.

The whole of the land around Lake Baihaier, and the large piece of land further north, that is, the region of Brigayang, the most fertile land in the Tatar region, will be cut by a straight line formed between the two cities of the Ming army.

Although they can still make a detour from the far west to the Brigayang area.

However, a large area east of Lake Baihaier and the border with Nuer Gandusi will fall under the control of the Ming army.

Because once the city of Nabaihaier Lake is built, this area will form the area of Baihaier Lake on the left, Nuer Gandusi on the right, and the actual control area of the two cities of the Ming army in the south.

It is equivalent to being surrounded by the Ming army on three sides.

And this most fertile piece of land is almost equal to the land of the entire Shanxi in the Ming Dynasty.

Such a large piece of land fell into the hands of the Ming army.

After understanding the intentions of the Ming army, the Tatar Khan suddenly became anxious.

If there was an army of the Ming army near Lake Berhaier, or if they built two cities and lost hundreds of miles of fertile grassland, they could accept it.

Then the loss of all the land east of Lake Bohail is like choking his Tartar throat.

"No, you can't! This result will definitely not be accepted by our Tatar Ministry! ”

Looking at the Tatar Great Khan's angry expression, Mahamu motioned for him to be calm and said: "According to today's information, although the city is close to completion, it is not completely completed, although the Ming army has stationed some troops there, but the number is not too much, as long as we can destroy that city, the two cities of the Ming army will not be able to form a connection." ”

"In the case of only one city, the damage to us is not too great, at most we will give the land around that city to the Ming army in the future, but once the two cities form a connection, the land we lose is not as simple as hundreds of miles."

Listening to Mahamu's words, the Tatar sweat was not spent. I gradually regained some composure.

"Mahamu, what should you do?"

Seeing this, when he finally realized that he was in such a situation, all he could rely on was him, Mahamu, and immediately said: "I have already gone to investigate the situation first, and everything will be discussed after everything is investigated." ”

Seeing this, all the people present could only wait quietly in this tent according to Na Mahamu's words.

Early the next morning.

The one who left the camp with the soldiers and went to Lake Baihaier also returned to the camp.

Yexian, who had just returned to the camp, immediately handed over the horses around him to a soldier, and he immediately rushed to the tent.

The moment the eyeliner walked into the tent, all the grasslands present, the leaders of the various tribes looked at Yexian one after another.

At this time, Na Mahamu also slowly turned to the wild scorpion and asked, "How is the situation?" ”

Hearing his grandfather's question, he hurriedly replied: "Now on the edge of Nabai Haier Lake, in addition to more than 10,000 soldiers who built the city, there are also 10,000 cavalry helping to transport supplies, and more than 10,000 soldiers are stationed on the edge of the city. ”

Mahamu listened to Yexian's report and calculated in his heart.

"So on the edge of Lake Baihaier, there are about 40,000 Ming troops in total?"

He nodded immediately.

And after his words were confirmed, Na Mahamu immediately thought about something.

He muttered: "The shortage of food in sheep on the surface has drawn all our attention to cutting off the supply line, while he himself is leading people to step up the construction of the city......"

Don't think about it, he Mahamu also knows that this must have been planned by Zhu Zhanji, the imperial grandson of the Ming army.

However, after dripping this, Na Mahamu immediately smiled and said: "Smart is very smart, but the courage is too great, plus those who are used to work have a total of about 40,000 troops, in the end, young people are still not stable enough to do things." ”

Just when the eyes of everyone present were focused on Mahamu's body.

Na Mahamu also looked up at everyone present at the same time and said: "The Ming army here has a total of less than 50,000 troops, although it is not too far from the city where the Ming army is stationed, but it will take two days to reach between the two cities, even if it is cavalry, it will take a day." ”

As he spoke, Na Mahamu picked up the baton beside him and clicked on the map, saying: "As long as we can avoid the reconnaissance of the Ming army, send 50,000 cavalry to this position, and carry out a surprise attack on the Ming army's troops stationed next to the newly built city at close range, we can end the battle in an hour." ”

"By that time, the newly built city would have fallen into our hands. At that time, with 50,000 troops to defend this city, even if we are inferior to the Ming army composed of Han Chinese, we can still defend a city with 50,000 people. ”

"Since their Ming army can rely on the fortification of the city to block ten, why can't we?"

"If they really dare to forcibly attack the city with a large army, our remaining 100,000 or so cavalry outside can freely choose to attack another city of the Ming army, or carry out a surprise attack on their besieging army!"

"I have also seen the materials used by the Ming army to build that city, and I heard that gunpowder can't blow it up. In this way, we don't need to be afraid of the artillery of the Ming army when defending the city. ”

As Na Mahamu told his plan, everyone present was brightened.

Although this plan is not very subtle, it accurately grasps the disadvantage that the newly built city next to the lake is not too many.

After all, the city doesn't recognize its owner.

If it falls into the hands of the Ming army, it will naturally be the city of the Ming army, but if it falls into the hands of their steppe people, it will also become the city of their steppe people.

After saying that, Na Mahamu also looked at all the leaders of the grassland tribes present and asked, "Do you think this method is feasible?" ”

Hearing Mahamu's question, the leaders of the various tribes present looked at each other and said, "Feasible! ”

Affirmed by everyone, Na Mahamu also immediately said to the Tatar Great Khan: "This raid is sent by your Tatar troops!" ”

Although Mahamu is now the temporary co-leader of the steppe coalition army, he has no actual command over the troops under the command of the various tribes, and he still needs to rely on the leaders of these tribes present to achieve the purpose of command.

Naturally, everyone present had no opinion on Na Mahamu's plan.

The Tatar Khan did not take off or not, and there was no opinion.

After all, this time they went to war for their Tatar lands.

However, when Natokhbuhua heard that they were going to send 50,000 troops to the Tatar army, and that they might be besieged by the Ming army next, he still hesitated.

After all, although the Tatar tribe is the largest tribe in the steppe, with 50,000 troops, it is also the absolute main force of his Tatar department, once this battle is lost, or the Ming army will break through the city gate.

Those who died were all their Tatar soldiers.

It is even possible that in a moment of crisis, the steppe coalition forces simply gave up their 50,000 troops in the Tatar region.

Thinking of this, the Tatar Great Khan immediately said: "I have no opinion on sending troops from the Tatar Ministry, but this time, I will also go with the army first!" ”

But with the words of Toktoku, Na Mahamu immediately changed his face and said, "Absolutely not!" ”

Seeing that Mahamu refused so simply, he was even more uneasy, and said: "If you don't go first, my Tatar tribe will not send troops, you can send your people from the Warat tribe to send troops!" ”

Seeing that the plan had been negotiated, but there was a disagreement over who should send the troops, Mahmu was suddenly a little annoyed.

"If you don't believe me, then you can fight this battle yourself!"

"I'll take our people from Warat back to the west, and leave it to you to fight the Ming army by yourself."

However, this method that had previously threatened the tried-and-tested methods of the leaders of the various tribes of the steppes present was now useless.

"Those 50,000 troops are the main force of our Tatar department, and without them, my Tatar department will be finished! It's not that I don't believe you, but I can't gamble with the lives of the Tatars! ”

"If you're going to withdraw your troops this time, well, we'll withdraw too! It's better to leave all these lands to the Ming army. But I told you in advance that we will regain from you how much land I have lost in the Tatar tribe. ”

As soon as these words came out, that Mahamu was furious!

Just as he was about to say something, the one on the side stopped his grandfather and said, "Grandpa, let me lead the troops this time, didn't you say that the grandson of the Ming army is my future opponent?" Then I'll fight him first this time! ”

Seeing what Ma Hamu wanted to say, he first persuaded again: "With the city guarded, grandpa can rest assured, we will never be attacked so easily!" ”

When he said this, his face was full of confidence.

However, seeing that his grandson was so confident, Mahamu was also very anxious in his heart, and first of all, the future of their Warat tribe, he must not easily take Yexian's life!

Although theoretically there is a city defense, 50,000 troops are enough to defend against the attack of hundreds of thousands of Ming troops.

But after all, such a siege battle, they, the steppe people, have never fought at all. Who knows what will happen when a real war breaks out? A bad ending is that the city is destroyed and people die, once it also falls into the hands of the Ming army, what will be the consequences?

He Mahamu knows it all too well.

"First too!"

Ma Hamu just spoke, but saw that Yexian had already knelt in front of him and said, "Grandpa, for the sake of the overall situation, for the sake of the entire grassland, you let your grandson go." ”

Although he also wanted to fight against his future enemy Ming Taisun in the Ming army.

But he was so determined to go this time because he knew very well that if he didn't go, the Tatar Great Khan would never dare to risk their Tatar army's 50,000 troops.

Because without these 50,000 troops, the entire Tatar tribe will no longer be able to rule over the vast tracts of land they have now.

It will even be constantly eaten by the surrounding grassland tribes.

And when Na Mahamu saw that his grandson was also so determined, he pondered for a long time, and could only sigh a long time and said, "Okay! You go! ”

After speaking, he looked at the Tatar Khan beside him: "Can you send troops now?" ”

Seeing that Na Mahamu agreed, he also went out with the army first.

The last trace of worry was gone, and when he said, "I'll send troops now!" ”

Half an hour later.

A cavalry army of 50,000 men appeared outside the camp of the steppe coalition army.

After the one who had gone with the army said goodbye to his grandfather, Mahamu, they began to head towards Lake Baihaier.

However, in order to prevent their movements from being detected by the spies of the Ming army, they did not choose the nearest road, but chose to take a detour to the west and make a detour.

When the grassland coalition army found out that the Ming army had built another new city, they immediately decided to prevent this from happening.

Zhu Zhanji, who is taking the last step before the completion of the construction of the city, is on the edge of Nabai Haier Lake.

At this moment, he stood on a hill, frowning and muttering, "Why hasn't Mahamu sent troops to attack?" ”

Obviously, Zhu Zhanji was clear in his heart that Na Mahamu might send troops to stop all this from happening.

Because once this city is built and a large army is stationed to defend it, the tribes of the steppe will no longer have the slightest chance of winning.

Now the reason why he Zhu Zhanji deliberately delayed the construction period and never let it be completed is that he is waiting for Namahamu to send troops to come.

But I've been waiting for many days, but I still haven't seen any movement of the steppe coalition army.

"These bastards don't really dare to come, do they? That's too boring. ”

At this time, Zhu Zhandong, the fifth elder who was standing beside Zhu Zhanji, listened to his eldest brother's words to himself, and he couldn't wait to kick him downhill.

If someone else were to build this city, I was afraid that it would be completed earlier, and then a large army would be sent to garrison it, so that the great thing could be accomplished.

But his eldest brother deliberately delayed the completion of the project, not only that, but also wondered why the enemy did not come to attack them.

Isn't that nothing to do?

Obviously, the fifth Zhu Zhan didn't know his eldest brother's plan.

"Brother, why do you say this? Our city is about to be completed, once the city is completed, the entire area east of Baihaier Lake will be included in the territory of my Ming Dynasty, this is a merit that will go down in history, aren't these words all said by yourself, big brother? Why do you still think about letting the enemy attack you? ”

Listening to the words of his own brother Zhu Zhandong, Zhu Zhanji sighed helplessly and said: "There is no problem with these words in essence, and our Ming army can indeed harvest these benefits and land, but have you thought about it, we have been wandering back on the edge of our two cities, an enemy who is always thinking about biting us, and when we are doing a lot of things, we can't really use our hands and feet." ”

"For example, there is such a large piece of land, do we dare to move people to cultivate here? From time to time, some grassland people may come out of these four weeks to burn and plunder, do those merchants in our country dare to come here to do business? ”

"If this problem cannot be solved, then these lands can only be included in the territory of our dynasty on the surface, but there is no way to really use it, and there is no way to bring too much substantial benefits to our dynasty."

"If this is the case, no matter how low the loss of the Ming army stationed here is, it will be a loss-making deal for our dynasty."

Listening to his eldest brother's detailed explanation, the fifth brother Zhu Zhanyuan gradually understood.

In general, it is a sentence, no matter how good things are, you have to use them to provide value for yourself, otherwise it is a waste.

Of course, owning this area and land as the actual control area of the Ming Dynasty was of great significance to the Ming Dynasty both strategically and militarily.

But if you only count the finances, this is indeed a loss-making deal, and there is no doubt about it.

And it's still a one-time transaction, which loses a lot of silver every year.

As long as they don't remove the garrison here for a day, there will be a day of attrition.

But on the contrary, if the threat of the surrounding steppe coalition can be removed, then this piece of land can be used by them and converted into substantial benefits.

Only in such a pattern and situation can a virtuous circle be formed, just like the methods in history that use war to feed war.

It's just that Zhu Zhandong, the fifth elder of his life, can't understand that now their troops here are less than 50,000 when they are full, and this is still counting the 8,000 people in the reserve battalion under his command, can such troops and combat effectiveness really pose a threat to those grassland coalition forces?

Even if it is dangerous, how much danger can it pose?

Once the other side even rushed over 30,000 cavalry.

Their less than 50,000 troops are very dangerous.

Familiar with the art of war, he knows very well how much difference there is between the combat effectiveness of a formed army and a scattered army.

So he asked suspiciously: "Brother, if the army of the Prairie Alliance really comes over, how are we going to fight this battle?" ”

Zhu Zhandong, the fifth brother who already trusts his eldest brother's talent very much, wants to hear what kind of method his eldest brother can say.

He can learn some from it himself.

However, after hearing his brother's question, Zhu Zhanji just smiled, and then said meaningfully: "Run!" ”

"Run?" The fifth elder, Zhu Zhanji, suddenly looked at Zhu Zhanji with a dull gaze.

But Zhu Zhanji pointed at the soldiers behind them in a reasonable tone, and said: "Look at these people don't even have weapons in their hands and no armor, what do you think they have combat effectiveness?" ”

"If the cavalry of the Prairie Alliance Army comes, there are tens of thousands, not to mention tens of thousands, why don't you run? Waiting to be skinned by those people? ”

Although the fifth brother Zhu Zhanji understood that his eldest brother Zhu Zhanji's words were right, this was too natural.

In the last second, he was still talking about destroying the living forces of the enemy army, which could bring a lot of practical benefits to the Ming Dynasty. The next second, he said that he would run away when he encountered an enemy.

I always feel that this statement is a bit upside down and unreasonable.

Looking at his brother's bewildered look, Zhu Zhanji suddenly laughed.

But just when he laughed, he was ready to explain something.

Zhu Zhandong, the fifth elder on the side, pointed to the grassland in the distance with a shocked face, and shouted: "Big brother, look! Is that the enemy cavalry coming! ”

Hearing the words of the fifth child, Zhu Zhanji also hurriedly turned his head to look at the grassland in the distance.

Just from the direction and position in which they appeared, Zhu Zhanji concluded that this was absolutely impossible for the cavalry of their Ming army.

"Yes, it's the cavalry of those steppe people!" Zhu Zhanji said firmly.

The fifth old man Zhu Zhan Feng who was standing on the side really didn't expect these grassland cavalry to really come.

Suddenly, he asked a little helplessly: "Big brother, what should I do now?" ”

Hearing the words of the fifth child, Zhu Zhanji said speechlessly: "What should I do?" Hurry back and take someone to pack up and run, what should I do. ”

Hearing his eldest brother's words, the fifth Zhu Zhan was stunned again.

I thought that what the eldest brother said just now was joking with himself, but he never thought that the enemy cavalry really wanted them to run away as soon as they came.

"The Sword Comes"

couldn't help but run down the city, and shouted at his eldest brother Zhu Zhanji: "Big brother, we ran away, what should we do with this city?!" ”

"If all of us go into the city to guard, resist for two days and wait for Grandpa to lead the army, it should be no problem!"

But how could Zhu Zhanji, who had a plan in his heart, let Lao Wu destroy it, but at this time, he obviously didn't have much time to explain to him in detail, so he immediately said: "If you can't catch up, the enemy's cavalry is too fast, and it will rush to us soon, we have tens of thousands of people here, I'm afraid we won't be able to catch up." ”

"You hurry up and lead people to run in the direction of Dingbei City now, now that this empty city is here, those steppe cavalry will definitely not abandon the city and chase us. In this way, the lives of these soldiers can be saved! ”

Although the fifth brother Zhu Zhan didn't agree so much with his eldest brother's words, but now that the situation was urgent, he didn't care about distinguishing anything from his eldest brother, so he hurriedly rode his horse and galloped towards the soldiers under his command in the distance.

Before and after coming to these soldiers, they immediately shouted: "Enemy attack!

”

"Come with me!

”

With the shout of the fifth Zhu Zhandong, the soldiers present immediately reacted, followed behind the fifth Zhu Zhanrong with the tools in their hands, and ran towards the direction of Dingbei City in the distance.

At the same time, all the surrounding Ming troops were also puzzled after hearing such a voice and the movement of the soldiers of the alternate battalion.

At this moment, Zhu Zhanji also ran here and shouted at the officers of their army: "Enemy attack! Quickly withdraw troops towards Dingbei City!

”

Hearing Zhu Zhanji's shout, the officers immediately understood, and shouted to the soldiers around them one after another.

Although none of them understood why His Royal Highness Taisun did not withdraw his troops towards the newly built city nearby, instead of going to the north city of Nading.

But now that Taisun's military order has been issued, they can only obey the military order.

Now that the war has begun, there is no room for them to have any doubts about the commander's command.

All they can do is cooperate with the commander-in-chief's command.

Immediately, those officers began to order the surrounding soldiers to flee in the direction of Dingbei City, and at the same time, they also ordered them to keep shouting around.

The land around the entire newly built city is very vast, and there is no time to notify everyone, so everyone can only keep shouting loudly in this way to notify the surrounding soldiers to evacuate.

At this moment, Zhu Zhanji, who was running around the newly built city and informing the soldiers to retreat to Dingbei City, was also quite anxious at this time.

It wasn't because of the cavalry of the steppe tribes, but because he found that the land around it was too big, and many people didn't even find the order to retreat.

But the cavalry armies of the various tribes of the steppe are getting closer and closer, and it will be dangerous if they don't evacuate.

Thinking of this, Zhu Zhanji couldn't help but feel a little remorseful, knowing that this was the case, he should have made a little emergency plan in advance, and let everyone rehearse how to retreat when the enemy attacked.

It won't be a temporary mess like now.

But fortunately, when Zhu Zhanji notified the cavalry responsible for transporting supplies of the order to retreat, they immediately divided a large number of cavalry to help Zhu Zhanji go around together and inform all the soldiers to evacuate.

And with their joining, the speed of the entire Ming army's retreat has been greatly improved.

Before the cavalry army of the steppe tribe arrived, all the Ming troops withdrew in the direction of Dingbei City of the Ming army in accordance with Zhu Zhanji's order.

Just when the cavalry army of the steppe tribe rushed to the bottom of the newly built city.

The chief general of the Tatar cavalry army immediately ordered the cavalry around him to stop temporarily, and then looked at his side and asked, "Do you still want to chase?" ”

In fact, there was no need for him to ask, at this time, he was also thinking about whether to continue the pursuit.

Looking at the Ming army that was constantly fleeing for his life in the distance, although he wanted to catch up at this time, kill the Ming army and take a look at the imperial grandson of the Ming army with his own eyes, but when he looked at the empty city beside him, he still shook his head firmly and said: "The purpose of our trip is to occupy this city, I thought there would be a bloody battle, but since they directly gave up garrisoning the city, then there is no need for us to continue the pursuit, it is better to defend this city first, otherwise it will change later." ”

After hearing Yexian's words, the commander of the cavalry army of the Tatar tribe also nodded.

Before leaving, although the command of this army was handed over to him, both their Tatar Great Khan and Mahamu had said that they wanted him to ask for his opinion when making some decisions.

He didn't want to continue to pursue those Ming troops, since he also said so first, he just agreed to push the boat down.

"Into town!"

After easily winning this battle and occupying this city, the commander of the Tatar cavalry army was suddenly in a better mood than ever.

And after he shouted this, the Tatar cavalry soldiers behind him also cheered for the victory of the battle.

None of them have been happier than they are today in a long time.

In the past few days, all the news they have heard is not favorable to their steppe coalition army, and now although this battle has not been won, it is a great encouragement to their military morale.

Looking at this scene, although the people on the side were not optimistic about this kind of cheering for no reason, they didn't say anything when they thought that it could boost morale.

After all, they had specially invited priests to deceive these soldiers before, and there was no difference between the two.

As the 50,000 cavalry began to be stationed in the newly built city of the Ming army, they first and immediately sent people to spread the news from here to the camp of their steppe coalition army.

He wants to spread the news here as soon as possible, so that his grandfather Mahamu can respond in time.

And on the other side.

Zhu Zhanji and the others, who were constantly fleeing towards Dingbei City, stood on the hill and observed for a long time, and were also relieved to see that the cavalry army of the grassland coalition army did not chase after them.

Immediately, Zhu Zhanji said to the fifth old man next to him, Zhu Zhandong, and some generals in the army: "Go, gather the army, and withdraw the army towards Dingbei City." ”

Hearing Zhu Zhanji's words, everyone responded one after another.

It's just that what they all don't understand is that when His Royal Highness the Taisun in front of them knew that the new city was occupied by those Tatar troops, he didn't show the slightest bit of unhappiness and frustration, but showed some irrepressible happy expressions.

But this was not the time to ask these questions, and they hurried down to gather the army.

After all, when they had just withdrawn and fled in a panic, their army had all dispersed.

It's not good if you get lost.

On the other side of the Sebei steppe.

Within the camps of the tribes of the steppe.

Mahamu and the leaders of the tribes of the steppe were anxiously waiting for the news of the battle to come back from the front.

Each of them knew very well that if this plan failed, what awaited them would be the defeat of the entire steppe coalition.

The alliance of the tribes of the entire steppe will also fall apart completely.

And what will happen next, and how the situation will develop, depends on how the battle report will be this time.

So, each of them showed a nervous look on their faces.

In particular, the detachment of the Tatar part does not take a lot of sweat.

Now all the land occupied by the Ming army belongs to their Tatar department, and once the alliance of the steppe tribes collapses, it will be their Tatar department that will face the pressure of the Ming army alone.

Although after the Ming army eliminated them, the other steppe tribes would not be spared.

But the first to die was their Tatar tribe, and they certainly didn't want to see this scene.

Time passed little by little in their anxious waiting.

Just when the soldiers of the entire grassland coalition army were all ready to go, waiting for the order from above, to start the next move.

The cavalry officers who had rushed back from the shore of Lake Berhail to report the news also rushed to the camp of the steppe coalition army when the sky was about to completely darken.

"Report!"

After hearing the sound outside the tent and the figure of the herald walking in, everyone present involuntarily stood up.

"How's it going?"

Everyone's eyes were on the herald.

When he felt the heavy eyes of the leaders of the various tribes around him, the herald's heart was also full of pressure, but he immediately spoke: "Back to the leaders, the army has completely occupied the city next to Baihaier Lake, and the Ming army has all retreated!" ”

As the news came out of the herald's mouth.

The leaders of all the tribes present breathed a long sigh of relief.

It's done!

As long as that city is taken, the Ming army will only have one city!

Their control over the land is limited.

And they, the grassland people, can still be constantly entangled with the Ming army here.

As for whether they will continue to build the city in the future, they will definitely continue to build it, but this time, they have already seen through the Ming army's hole cards, how can they give them so long to build the city.

Although they can continue to build in a place that is closer to the Ming army, what is the use of such a city after it is built?

Their actual area of control doesn't increase much as a result.

But once they build far away, then the cavalry of their steppe army can constantly raid and besiege them.

At this time, Mahamu, who was still the temporary co-leader of the grassland coalition army, also sat down at this time.

After calming down for a moment, he asked the herald, "You tell me more about this battle." ”

Hearing Mahamu's words, the herald dared not delay, so he immediately told all the things they had seen and encountered when they rushed to the newly built city of Nabaihaier Lake today.

Listening to his narration, Mahamu, who was sitting on the throne, suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of crisis in his heart for some reason.

Although even he couldn't figure out where this crisis came from, he just felt his heart.

It seems as if something bad is about to happen.

Especially when they heard that the city was not defended by anyone, and under their surprise attack, the Ming army retreated.

"Are you saying that those Ming troops didn't have any contact with you at all, and when they saw you rushing from afar, they directly abandoned the city, and then fled in the direction of the Ming army?"

Listening to Mahamu's words, the herald also nodded seriously.

For a moment, Na Mahamu couldn't sit still again, slowly got up, and looked at the map behind him.

Try to find the answer you want from the map.

Why did those Ming troops suddenly withdraw?

Even if they knew they were invincible, they should retreat into that city.

If they retreat back to the city as soon as possible, relying on their 40,000 or 50,000 men and horses, they may be able to hold out until the next day.

At that time, the great army of the Ming army will arrive.

The crisis will be resolved.

But they chose the most unreasonable choice.

This really made him Mahamu puzzled.

If the man who led the army was a mediocre fool, that's it.

Judging from the intelligence, the one who led the army to build the city was Zhu Zhanji, the grandson of the Ming army, who often made amazing moves.

Judging by the talents he has shown in the past, he will definitely not be a mediocre fool.

If that is the case, why did they make such a choice?

Just when Na Mahamu was anxiously thinking about all these answers, the leaders of the various tribes behind him shouted happily to Na Mahamu one by one at this time: "Mahamu, what are you waiting for? According to the method we have thought of in advance, hurry up and order the army to set off! ”

Listen to the questions of the leaders.

Ma Hamu shook his head without any hurry, and said: "If it is dark today and it is not the time to march, even if we leave early tomorrow morning, we will be in a hurry." ”

Seeing Mahamu say this, everyone present stopped insisting.

At this time, they were still immersed in the joy of snatching the city of the Ming army.

Some have even suggested that wine and meat be brought for a good celebration.

But this proposal was sternly rejected by Na Mahamu, not to mention that he has not yet figured out the reason for Zhu Zhanji's actions, so he said that there is no problem with all this, and it is far from the time to celebrate.

He knew very well that now after occupying that city, the next thing he would have to face would be the frantic attack of the Ming army.

Whether the 50,000 troops in that city can hold on to the Ming army's frantic attack, and whether their 100,000 cavalry can threaten the Ming army on the periphery and force them to retreat, everything remains to be seen.

Now with the arrival of this city, the situation between them and the Ming army has at most reverted to the situation of June Fourth.

The Ming army is six, and they are four.

Even if the Ming army directly abandoned this city, their grassland tribes still had no means to deal with the 500,000 Ming troops stationed in the city.

In other words, all their plans, even if they were all successful, would just stop the Ming army's advance.

There is still a long way to go before the Ming army is defeated and driven out of the Saibei grassland.

At times like these, there is obviously no reason to celebrate with a drink.

And after the chiefs of the tribes present at the general were sent back to rest, he continued to sit alone in the tent, thinking carefully.

You know, there is his own grandson in it, and that is the hope of their Warat in the future.
