In the main tent of the camp, Paoertu did not sleep all night.

Ever since Amugu and his party left the camp, Jaertu has been worried.

Although there has always been a conventional rule that two armies are at war and do not kill them, Ja Ertu knows that the relationship between the Ming and the Tatars can only be described as mortal enemies!

If Amugu accidentally annoyed those Ming people in the process, he might not be able to come back alive.

Just when Paoertu was still worried about the safety of this group, he saw his cronies enter the main tent, kneel on one knee, and report respectfully.

"Chief, Amugu is back."

Hearing this, Paw Ertu's face was full of surprise, and the stone that had been hanging in his heart finally fell to the ground.

Immediately, I saw that the claw diagram reacted, and immediately commanded.

"Let him come to me quickly!"

"Yes, Chief!"

After receiving the instructions of Jaertu, the cronies immediately left the main tent, and after a short time, they saw Amugu enter the main tent.

As soon as he entered the main tent, he knelt on one knee and said in a deep voice.

"I've seen the Chief!"

Seeing Amugu's dusty appearance, his face was full of concern, and he hurriedly stepped forward, helped Amugu up from the ground, and patted him on the shoulder.

"Well, it's good to be able to come back safely!"

Seeing this, Amugu also showed a bitter smile on his face, and immediately reported it.

"Chief, before this, I have already talked to those Ming people, and they agreed to send troops to assist us, but they ......"

Amgu just stood still, silent, and didn't continue.

Hearing this, Paw Er Tu seemed to have noticed something, smiled miserably, and immediately asked.

"Anyway, no matter what, it's better than our current situation, keep talking!"

After receiving encouragement from the leader of the Clawtu, Amugu organized the language in his mind and began to tell the story of what had happened to the Ming army and the strategy agreed upon by both sides.

"Chief, here's how it ......"

After listening to Amugu's description, Jaw Ertu also frowned, and immediately confirmed.

"Are you saying that we need to attack the Ming army at that time, and they will abide by the agreement and let us go?"

"After that, send a false message to Tumaihan, let him lead the main force to attack, and we are responsible for luring him into the encirclement that the Ming army has already prepared?"

Amugu didn't know what to do, so he nodded yes.

Paoertu took in the expression on Amugu's face, and immediately raised his doubts.

"If we go to attack according to the previous agreement, and the Ming army really does a fake show and really annihilates us in one fell swoop, how should we deal with it at that time?"

Amugu couldn't answer this question about the claw diagram for the time being, so he could only choose to remain silent.

I don't know how long time has passed, but I saw that Pao Ertu sighed helplessly, and then spoke.

"Alas, you go out first, let me think about it alone!"

"Yes, Chief!"

Amugu knew that staying here would only distract Paoertu, so he didn't stop and turned to leave the main tent.

After Amugu left, Jastu turned and sat back in his place, and began to analyze the current situation.

Although there seem to be a lot of roads in front of us, in the final analysis, there are only two ways to go.

The first is to follow the orders of Tumaihan and launch an attack on the Ming army, perhaps in the process, to survive as much as possible and preserve strength, and the second is to cooperate with the Ming army to lure Tumaihan's main force into the encirclement and annihilate them all!

After thinking about it for a long time, Paoertu finally made up his mind, he knew too well about the temperament of this person, he would definitely find a way to kill himself, even if he could get away with it this time, then what about next time, and next time?

Besides, if you only have a thousand days to be a thief, how can there be a reason to prevent thieves for a thousand days?

No matter how cautious you are, there will always be negligence, and when the time comes, your negligence will be taken advantage of by Tumaihan, thus putting you to death.

At that time, his tribe, his wife and children still could not escape the clutches of Tumaihan, and in the end, it was only a matter of time.

Therefore, Ja Ertu decided to make a desperate bet, he wanted to borrow the hand of the Ming army to eradicate the big trouble of Tumaihan!

Gradually, the expression on Pao'ertu's face gradually became firm, and after a while, he called his subordinates and commanded in a deep voice.

"You go and inform the Great Khan of Tumaihan, and say that we will officially launch an attack on the Ming army at noon!"

When the subordinates heard this, their faces were full of puzzlement, but they were forced by the prestige that the leader had accumulated for a long time, and he still reluctantly responded.

"Yes, Chief!"

……

At this moment, less than sixty miles away from Jizhou, in a temporary camp.

"Haha, okay, he finally succumbed to me!"

Tumaihan looked at the letter in his hand, which was sent by Pao Ertu himself, and couldn't help but feel in a good mood, and said loudly.

Seeing this, the generals on the side hurriedly flattered.

"Great Khan, he didn't recognize the difference in strength with you until now, it's really stupid!"

"In my opinion, he is not worthy of the title of Battle at all, and his subordinates feel that the most suitable person for this title should be you, the Great Khan."

Tumaihan was very useful to his subordinates' sycophants, so he immediately picked up the wine glass, drank the wine in the glass, and said quietly.

"This claw figure always likes to go against Ben Khan on weekdays, and now he wants to surrender to Ben Khan!"

"It's a pity, it's too late, he will inevitably die today!"

Then, I saw Tumaihan turn his gaze to the subordinate who was patting the sycophants before, waved his hand, and commanded quite casually.

"When the time comes, one-fifth of the cattle, sheep, livestock and women of the tribe where the claw is located will belong to you!"

When the subordinate heard this, a flattered expression immediately appeared on his face, and he immediately said excitedly.

"Thank you Great Khan, the little one will definitely sacrifice all his loyalty to you, Great Khan!"

Seeing this, Tumaihan did not say anything, but continued to drink on his own, and then, as if suddenly remembered, he immediately commanded.

"Pass on Ben Khan's order, let the army gradually move closer to the camp where Jaertu is currently stationed!"

"Yes, Great Khan!"

……

Soon, it was noon.

I only heard the sound of horses' hooves from a distance, and a cavalry of more than 3,000 people, while rolling up countless wind and sand, slaughtered towards the east gate of Jizhou Town!

And the leader of this army was none other than Paoertu, and at this moment, he was riding a brown-red war horse under him, and Amugu, as his right-hand man, rode a horse and followed him closely.

Seeing that the distance from the east gate of Jizhou Town was getting closer and closer, Pao Ertu's heart also raised his throat, and he knew that a level of rushing and killing like this would not be able to help the defenders in the city at all!

On the contrary, if the defenders on the city wall took this opportunity to attack them, they would lose most of their cavalry under their command with only one face.

Seeing that the army was getting closer and closer to the east gate of Jizhou Town, Claw Ertu could clearly see the cannons on the city wall, as well as the Ming army that had already been waiting for the battle and was holding a firecracker!

"Warriors, kill me!"

Paoertu shouted, and the morale of his troops was also boosted, and they began to shoot arrows with bows, but the place they aimed at was in the sky.

At this moment, the Ming army guarding the city wall moved, and saw an officer pull out the long knife at his waist and say loudly.

"Brothers, kill all this group of Tatar cavalry!"

As soon as the words fell, the sound of countless firebolts and arrows firing sounded in the ears of Paw Ertu.

Just when Claw Ertu thought that the Ming army was really doing a fake show and wanted to annihilate himself on the spot, Amu Gu on the side seemed to see what Claw Ertu was thinking, and hurriedly pointed to the Ming soldiers on the city wall, and reminded him.

"Look, Chief!"

Claw Ertu looked along the direction pointed by Amugu, only to find that these Ming soldiers guarding the city had all aimed their firearms and bows and arrows at the sky.

Seeing this, Pao Ertu immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and said secretly in his heart: "It seems that these Ming troops have kept their promises!" ”

Then, I saw him gather his mind, pull out his scimitar, point to the city wall close in front of him, and said loudly.

"Warriors, these Ming troops are vulnerable, kill them with me!"

In this way, a huge battle began on both sides, but in the process, not a single person was injured.

After a few rounds of charging and killing, Jaw Ertu felt that the time was almost up, so he ordered his cavalry to retreat, and those soldiers who were in charge of guarding the city wall had no intention of pursuing, but silently loaded the fire guns in their hands, after all, the next battle was the real thing.

On the city wall, Yang Xuan looked at the three thousand cavalrymen who had left, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

I don't know how long it has been, but I saw Yang Xuan summon the general soldier and commanded.

"According to the previous deployment, let's officially let the army go out!"

"Yes, Lord Governor!"

When the chief soldier heard this, he immediately responded respectfully.

A moment later, the gate of Jizhou Town was opened, and countless elite soldiers wearing armor and carrying long knives on their waists and firearms on their backs rode horses and marched towards the established ambush site, without making a single sound during the whole process, if you look down from mid-air, it is a black torrent with no end in sight, which is sweeping away in the distance.

Yang Xuan, the governor of Jiliao, was riding on a jujube red war horse at the moment, marching at the front of the team, and for the sake of safety, he refused Yang Bo's request to join the battle.

Because he knew that this battle was extremely dangerous, if he unfortunately died, with Yang Bo and the remaining troops in the city, he would still be able to hold Jizhou Town!

Thinking of this, I saw Yang Xuan turn around and ask his subordinates on the side.

"All the grenades have been distributed, right?"

The subordinates on the side saw Yang Xuan's question, and after thinking for a while, they immediately responded.

"Your Excellency the Governor, this batch of grenades newly transported by the imperial court, plus those that have been delivered one after another in the past, a total of more than 18,000 grenades, have been distributed now!"

After Yang Xuan received an affirmative answer from his subordinates, he was no longer entangled.

Before this, Yang Xuan had been to the scene and had seen the power of the grenade explosion, especially after the explosion, the sputtered ceramic fragments would have a great lethality to the enemy.

"I hope it helps!"

Yang Xuan rode on the horse, forcibly suppressed the anxiety in his heart, looked at the scenery in the distance, and muttered to himself silently.

……

When Jaertu led the army back to the camp he had set up earlier, he suddenly found that the camp he had built earlier had already been occupied by a group of uninvited guests.

And this group of uninvited guests is Tumaihan and the 50,000 army he leads!

The temporary camp built by Jaoertu can only barely accommodate about 4,000 people, so more than a dozen camps have been set up one after another next to the camp built by Paoertu.

Seeing this situation, I don't know where I don't know, this is a dismount that Tumaihan gave himself.

Immediately, I saw that he forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart and commanded his subordinates on the side.

"Let's go, let's go back to camp!"

When the words fell, the faces of Amugu and many soldiers behind him were also full of resentment, but because the difference in strength between the two sides was too huge, he reluctantly swallowed this breath.

As early as the moment when Jaertu led the army back to the camp, Tumaihan in the main tent had already learned the news through his subordinates.

At the same time, he was also quite surprised that Paw Ertu could come back alive.

"It stands to reason that the combat effectiveness of the Ming army should not be so low, after a battle, the claw map can still retain so much strength, what happened in the middle?"

"Could it be that Claw Er Tu has defected to the Ming army?"

Immediately after, in the mind of Tumaihan, the idea came to mind without warning.

But soon, this idea was rejected by him himself: "No, it can't be, we Tatars are mortal enemies with those Mingmen!" ”

"It is absolutely impossible for him to get any help from those Ming people, the only possibility is that the combat effectiveness of the Ming army is extremely low, which makes the claw Tu retreat unharmed!"

Thinking of this, Tumaihan's expression gradually became excited, since now, those Ming people have fully exposed their own weaknesses, and they can take this opportunity to complete the set goal.

That is, by plundering those Ming people, so as to obtain enough livestock, grain, cattle, sheep, women, etc., so that the tribe can survive the immediate crisis!

And at that time, he returned to the tribe with the power of great victory, and then purged those opponents, and no one dared to say anything more, as for the pearl of the grassland, it was just the trophy of the victor!

Thinking of this, a plan gradually took shape in Tumaihan's mind, and immediately, he came back to his senses and commanded his subordinates on the side.

"Go, let Pao Ertu come and see me now!"

"Follow your orders, Venerable Great Khan!"
