Khalkha Mongolia is a typical people who are addicted to vegetables.
Historically, the Manchu and Qing Dynasties were about to unify China. Khalkha not only plundered in Hulunbuir and Xilin Gol, but even dared to cross the southern Daxing'an Mountains to rob people and livestock in the territory of the Bahrain Ministry. It's like messing around under Manqing's nose!
Dorgon was busy attacking Nanming at that time, and had no time to use troops on the grassland, so he could only reprimand and order Khalkha to return the looted humans and animals quickly. Khalkha obeyed on the surface, donating ten camels and one hundred war horses, but did not mention the looted people and animals. Man Qing had no choice but to pinch his nose and admit it.
Afterwards, Shunzhi pro-government, canonized the ministries of Khalkha.
Khalkha is willing to accept the canonization and surrender to the Manchu Qing, and then the looting should continue to be looted, and the Manchu Qing, the suzerain country, is completely ignored. It was not until the twenty-seventh year of Kangxi, when Galdan's power rose, and Khalkha was beaten to the brim, that Khalkha Mongols really surrendered to the Qing Dynasty (they were robbed so hard by Galdan that they didn't even have enough food, came to ask Manqing for food and help).
"Report!"
"The main force of Khalkha went north and did not escape from the west!"
Zhang Tieniu looked at the map carefully, twisted his neck and said, "This is to lure us out, lengthen our army's supply line, and then look for a chance to fight a decisive battle."
Li Dingguo smiled and said: "He will go his way, and I will go mine. No matter how the Khalkha army pulls north, we will go north slowly, blocking all the passages in the remaining veins of the Daxing'an Mountains. At that time, they will not want to go back to Mobei. There is a way to go. Just close the door and beat the dog!"
Zhang Tieniu said: "There are several passages. If they are all blocked, the troops will be divided. It is easy to be broken by the enemy."
Li Dingguo said: "So don't worry, go north slowly, step by step. While marching, wait for the friendly troops from Liaoning to come and meet. After a long time, the friendly troops from Shanshan and Shanxi will also come."
"This march is too slow, what if the enemy runs away?" Zhang Tieniu asked.
Li Dingguo said: "If you want to run away, you will have to wait until now? The leader of Khalkha also wants to fight with us."
Zhang Tieniu was very puzzled: "The commander of the enemy army, who has grabbed so many things, why did he stay and refuse to leave? He really thought he could defeat our Datong army? Khalkha's strength is not superior, nor is its ordnance and equipment superior, and it is still in Horqin The grassland is not stable, the time and place are right and people don¡¯t occupy anything, so why should he fight a decisive battle with us? Just because he has more cavalry?¡±
Li Dingguo couldn't explain, he could only say: "I don't know either."
Chahun Dorji was just trying to show off his abilities,
Rely on the Porcelain Datong Army to enhance your prestige.
It took time for the Mongolian tribes to gather troops, and it took time for the Han people to go out, especially when they had to transport grain and grass from the south of Yanshan Mountain.
In Dorji, Chahun, when the Han people mobilize troops and transport enough food, it will already be snowing in the month. He can completely retreat while fighting, lengthen the supply line of the Han people, wait until the weather is cold, and find an opportunity to eliminate the tired and cold Han soldiers. Even if the Han soldiers retreated early, he could still say that he had won the battle, thus gaining a firm foothold in the Horqin Grassland.
"Why hasn't the army from Bahrain arrived yet?"
On the way to take the initiative to retreat northward, Chahun Dorji was very upset. It was agreed to act together, but the Bahrain department missed the appointment.
The left and right banners of the Bahrain Department have been moved to the edge of the Xilin Gol grassland. A hundred years ago, this was their territory, and it was forced to move eastward by Chahar, and now it was moved back by Chahun Dorji.
The reason why the Bahrain department missed the appointment was very simple. They encountered the remnants of Horqin who crossed the Xing'an Mountains and detoured south.
Hong Guoer died of illness on the way, and many soldiers also died in Daxinganling. There are also a large number of tribal cavalry who did not go with them, but chose to take refuge in Khalkha Mongolia. Today, there are only more than 6,000 cavalry led by Manzhu Xili, all the way south to the edge of the Xilin Gol grassland.
"Horqin cavalry appear in the north!"
"Brother, what should we do?"
"What else can I do? Run away!"
The two people who spoke were Sebuteng, the leader of the Balin Right Banner, and Manzhu Xili, the leader of the Balin Left Banner.
Yes, the leader of the Horqin remnant tribe is called Manzhu Xili, and the leader of the Bahrain Left Banner is also called Manzhu Xili.
When the two brothers were talking, a Mongolian prince holding a folding fan suddenly said, "Escape is a must. Where should we escape? I think we should seek refuge with the Han people."
This person's name is Wen Chun, and he is the nephew of Sebuteng and Manzhu Xili.
Wen Chun has been familiar with Confucian classics since he was a child. According to the order of succession, he should have been in charge of Bahrain Left Banner. But he voluntarily refused, thinking that since he was young, the power should be handed over to his uncle.
colorWithout fighting a single battle, Zhang Tieniu's troops increased again by marching two hundred miles northward.
The equipment of the Bahraini cavalry is so bad that they have no combat effectiveness at all. When assigning tasks, Zhang Tieniu said: "All of you go out to inquire, and you don't need to pester the enemy when you encounter them. As long as you can find out the enemy's situation, you will be considered meritorious."
Sebuteng said: "General, the warriors of Bahrain can also fight. Please, general, lend the extra armor to our men temporarily."
Zhang Tieniu raised his hand and said, "No need, you guys should just be sentry riders."
Manzhu Xili from Horqin said: "Our department can focus on attacking, uu read books <a href="http://www.uukanshu.com" target="_blank">www.uukanshu.com</a> must fight bravely enemy!"
"Very well, you all will follow me, and you will be useful in wars." Zhang Tieniu acknowledged this. After all, Horqin's people, animals, and property were all taken away by Khalkha, and he will definitely work hard in wars.
The Datong army continued to march northward slowly. A few days later, the Liaoning friendly army, which was advancing close to the remaining veins of Yanshan Mountain, came to meet up under the leadership of Li Zheng.
It seems that Zhang Tieniu, Li Zheng and others did not come to chase the enemy.
Every time a key location is reached, 10,000 people are left to garrison, cut down trees in the mountains to build camps, and dig trenches on all sides to prepare for long-term defense. They ignored the main force of Khalkha at all, and only wanted to block the Khalkha army so that Chahun Dorji could not lead his army back to Mobei.
? Chahun Dorji, who wanted to lure the enemy deep and stretch the supply line of the Datong Army, was enraged by Zhang Tieniu's approach.
"This is looking down on me, even dividing up the troops along the way. Let them continue to divide the troops, and we will fight back after the division is over! Also, send 10,000 cavalry to detour south to cut off the Han soldiers' food road!".
