Chapter 262: The Sound of Water
The famous order was defeated, 200,000 against 50,000, and it was still defeated.
Wei Mingling looked embarrassed, and retreated with an army of less than 100,000.
If it weren't for the territory of Western Xia, there were many mountainous areas, which were not conducive to cavalry attacks, and I was afraid that the casualties would be even more serious.
Wei Ming Linggong looked at the soldiers around him, shook his head with a wry smile, and said secretly: Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you are wrong this time.
It turned out that among the 200,000 soldiers and horses, there were 150,000 recruits, and only 50,000 veterans.
The reason given by Dai Daojin was that Temujin would definitely withdraw his troops when he saw Xia Guo's offensive posture, and this time Chen Bing Heishui Town was at most a training.
Wei Mingling Gong has rich experience in leading soldiers, so he naturally knows that he can't take risks, and he is bitter, but Dai Daojin insists on his opinion.
The name of the prince was impossible, so he had to receive the order.
There can be 100,000 left, or the result of Wei Minglinggong's careful response, these recruits met such a brave Mongolian cavalry for the first time, their hands and feet trembled, if it were not for 50,000 old soldiers to follow, I am afraid that it will collapse at the touch of a button, and it is possible that the whole army will be annihilated, and the Mongols have suffered about 2,000 casualties.
Of the remaining less than 100,000 people, the old pawns accounted for more than 40,000.
These people fought and retreated.
Jochi, the leader of the Mongol army, was also very surprised, the Mongols had attacked the Western Xia twice, and he had also fought with the Western Xia army, so he should not be so unbearable in his impression.
The mountain soldiers of Western Xia are extremely strong, and he has also been taught.
"General, could it be that the Xia people are cheating?" the general under his command said suspiciously.
Jochi frowned, "It's possible, that old guy is scheming, but ......"
"But what?"
"But in this battle, the Xia Kingdom has reduced 100,000 people, and that old guy doesn't dare to use the lives of 100,000 soldiers for any schemes, right, how many soldiers and horses does the Xia Kingdom have in total?
The general frowned as well.
Jochi waved his hand suddenly, and said categorically: "Regardless of whether he is a conspiracy or not, behind the foot palace, I will lead 30,000 cavalry, chase and kill from behind them, and kill the enemy as much as possible, if there is really a trick, with the bravery of my Mongolian warriors, I can retreat at any time, I don't believe that the soldiers and horses of the Xia Kingdom can stop me." ”
The general thought about it, the cavalry comes and goes like the wind, as long as you are careful, it should not be a big deal, the temptation of annihilating 200,000 soldiers and horses of the Xia State is too great, and he does not believe that the Xia State uses the lives of 100,000 soldiers to make conspiracy.
The fighter plane was fleeting, and it would be the command, but he still said: "General, it's better to be careful, if something is wrong, retreat immediately." ”
Jochi nodded, waved his hand, and rode forward.
Chase all the way, run all the way.
By the time they arrived at Helan Mountain, the 100,000 horses in Western Xia had been reduced to less than 50,000.
Wei Ming Linggong looked at the military town of Keyimun in front of him, and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, stepping on Helan Mountain, it is Kyoto Zhongxing Mansion, if these 30,000 Mongolian iron horses, after Helan Mountain, it is unimaginable.
Wei Mingling raised his hand: "Come on, go and report with this commander's warrant." ”
They had their own soldiers to do it, and after a while, the soldiers informed them that there were no horses in the town.
Wei Ming Linggong turned his head to look behind him, and he could vaguely see a dense cavalry trailing behind.
Gritted his teeth and wanted to give orders, but when he looked at the soldiers around him, they were all exhausted, and they swallowed back the words that came to their mouths.
Along the way, he couldn't eat or sleep well, and he faced death threats at any time, not to mention the recruits, even the old pawns were on the verge of collapse.
Looking at those pair of wooden eyes, although Wei Ming Linggong sighed in his heart, he made up his mind that even if all 200,000 horses were killed in battle, the Mongols would never be allowed to step on Helan Mountain.
Then he gave the order to go down and rest in place.
About ten miles behind him, Jochi's face was slightly excited, 200,000 horses, 150,000 were killed by him, he could be sure that Wei Ming really gave his life to escape, not some conspiracy.
Chasing along the way, Jochi did not chase and kill with all his might, for fear that the other party's dog would jump off the wall in a hurry and fight hard, but at the same time, he was a little cautious in his heart.
The general next to him rode his horse to Jochi's side, and his eyebrows were a little worried: "General, in front of Helan Mountain is Helan Mountain, and behind Helan Mountain is Zhongxing Mansion, the capital of Xia Kingdom, could this be a trick by the other party to lure the enemy deeper?"
Jochi laughed and said: "Suddenly, if you lure the enemy deeper, will you first let your 150,000 sons and daughters go to death to win the trust of the enemy, and then only for the enemy's 30,000 people?"
The general immediately shook his head.
Jochi patted the other party's shoulder, and said with a relaxed expression: "Suddenly, my good answer, the emperor of the Xia Kingdom is a soft egg, this time it is estimated that we Mongolia will definitely withdraw when we see them and the Jin State Alliance, so we are so careless, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, if we can break through the Zhongxing Mansion, my father Khan will definitely be very happy." ”
Then a scout arrived.
"Report to the general, the enemy began to rest in place, watching the formation change, as if he wanted to fight us to the death. ”
Jochi's eyes lit up, if the other party didn't dare to fight and crossed Helan Mountain, then he would have to think carefully, but at this time, the enemy was going to fight hard, and behind him was Xia Guojing, and it would be strange not to fight hard.
Relieved, Jochi waved his hand, and the soldiers next to him saw it, waved the command flag in their hands, and the 30,000 horses became restless and began to run slowly.
It's getting faster and faster.
Wei Ming Linggong lowered his head, felt the dust on the ground shake, took a deep breath, stood behind a large piece of horse rejection stakes made temporarily, and shouted: "Prepare to meet the enemy." ”
......
On a hill in Helan Mountain, Dai Daojin looked down at the battlefield below, his face expressionless.
Next to him, Ning Ji felt a chill in his heart, glanced at the bottom of the mountain, and then glanced at the emperor next to him in fear, and sighed in his heart: The emperor is ruthless.
Dai Daojin naturally noticed Ning Jitong's gaze, but he didn't care, he only cared if he could succeed this time.
After a while, Dai Daojin waved his hand, and then a man in black bowed, jumped a few times, and ran down the mountain.
......
After killing a Mongolian soldier with a sword, just as he was about to continue, a man in black rushed to his side and shouted, "Wei Ming Linggong, Your Majesty has a decree to order you to retreat to Zhongxing Mansion." ”
When Wei Mingling heard this, his face changed slightly, and he glanced at the gold medal in his hand.
His cheeks tensed, and he yelled, "Retreat." ”
At this order, all the soldiers immediately scattered in all directions, fled in a hurry, and each fled for his life, where he could still assemble.
The Mongol cavalry chased after them, like chasing fleeing cattle and sheep.
After chasing and killing, the Mongolian cavalry finally crossed Helan Mountain.
In front of Zhongxing Mansion, chasing all the way, Jochi gathered the Mongol army, looked at the big city in front, and the remnants of less than 20,000 remnants of the Xia Kingdom that ran to Zhongxing Mansion.
But no one came to the rescue.
At this time, Jochi sensed that something was wrong, and immediately made a decision, waving his right hand, and suddenly the flag was raised in his hand.
The great army is about to retreat.
At this moment, Jochi suddenly heard the sound of water.
