When Zhu Youxiao was creating death and fear on the grassland, other soldiers and horses of the Ming Dynasty also set out from Xuanfu. The Chinese army was 300,000 infantry and 50,000 cavalry led by Xiong Tingbi. The 300,000 infantry included two infantrymen of the Imperial Association Army. One hundred thousand, 50,000 Guards infantry, 50,000 Frontier infantry, 50,000 cavalry, 10,000 Guards and 40,000 Frontier troops!
The other three groups of light cavalry include the 10,000 Guards cavalry led by Cao Ling and the 25,000 Imperial Association cavalry led by Lu Xiangsheng. The 7,000 additional cavalrymen of the Imperial Association are from the Duoyan Three Guards and the attached Mongolian tribes. Selected elites!
The second line is the 30,000 Guards cavalry led by Li Rubai, and the third line is the 30,000 elite frontier cavalry led by Cao Wenzhao!
These three lines of cavalry and light cavalry did not act recklessly on the grassland like Zhu Youxiao. Instead, they cleaned up within a range of 300 to 500 miles from Xiong Tingbi's army. In other words, these three lines of cavalry were cleaning up the Mongolian tribes. At the same time, he also protected the safety of the Chinese Army. This made people look like Zhu Youxiao, the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, among the Chinese Army!
As the Ming army continued to advance on the grassland, the news that Ming Dynasty was going to completely destroy the Mongolian Empire also spread rapidly on the grassland. Some people did not believe it at first, but as Ming Dynasty's Qingqi almost set the entire grassland on fire, those who were originally unwilling The tribes involved in this war realized at this time that they could not remain content in the face of the Ming Dynasty's attack!
So according to Zhu Youxiao's idea, the tribes on the grassland either fled far away with their families, or gathered towards Kulun, hoping to be protected by Lin Dan Khan, the Mongolian Khan. In this way, Lin Dan Khan's men unexpectedly succeeded in a short period of time. Nearly two hundred thousand people gathered!
This made Lin Danhan so beautiful that he woke up laughing several times every night. He ascended the throne and became the Great Khan of Mongolia at a young age, but he was never able to truly grasp the power of the Great Khan. Not only did he lose Chahanhot this time, he was also beaten by Zhu Youxiao Becoming a lost dog, it can be said that his hope of reviving the Borjijin family was suddenly shattered!
Lin Danhan had no choice but to come to Kulun and issued a recruitment order, hoping that the Mongolian tribes could gather around him in times of crisis, but the facts once again slapped the Mongolian Khan in the face. It has been nearly a month since the recruitment order was issued, but there are only less than 40,000 people willing to respond to his call!
Just when Lin Danhan was disheartened, news came that the Ming Dynasty had mobilized millions of troops to attack the grassland. This frightened Lin Danhan and almost ran away all night. However, with this news came people who defected to him one after another. Tribe, this made Lin Danhan calm down again and decided to wait for a while to see the situation!
So while Lin Danhan was waiting eagerly, more and more Mongolian tribes gathered around him, and he gradually regained his confidence. After all, he had defeated Ming Yingzong's 500,000-strong army with less than 100,000 people. Now he has With an army of 200,000 in hand, it shouldn't be difficult to defeat a Ming army of one million!
What's more, judging from the scouts' investigation, the actual strength of the Ming army is less than 500,000, and most of them are infantry. In this case, it is no problem for the Mongols, who are all cavalry, to fight or leave!
For a moment, Lin Dan Khan was content and felt that this moment could be regarded as the last and most glorious moment for him to become the Great Khan of Mongolia!
It¡¯s a pity that after the success, Lin Danhan suddenly discovered that he didn¡¯t have that much food and grass to feed these people. In order to get rid of this embarrassing situation, there were only two ways in front of Lin Danhan!
The first is to immediately launch an attack on the Ming army. If they win, everything will be fine!
The second is to avoid the sharp edge of the Ming army, lead the army to escape, and at the same time plunder other tribes on the way to meet the food and grass needs of the current army!
Of course, under the current circumstances, it is impossible for Lin Danhan to choose the second path. After all, he has an army of 200,000 men. If he has such a strong strength and cannot escape from the Ming army, then he, a Mongolian It¡¯s a different matter if you sweat profusely!
In fact, not only Lin Dan Khan, but other Mongolian nobles also thought so. Although they had suffered more or less losses at the hands of the Ming army in the past two years, the descendants of Genghis Khan, who had been proud for hundreds of years, did not think that In this war, they will lose to the Han people who cannot ride a horse!
Therefore, after Lin Danhan learned the march route of the main force of the Ming army, he waved his troops to meet him without hesitation. His idea was very simple, that is, to hit all 200,000 cavalry and defeat the main force of the Ming army in one fell swoop. It was best to If he could capture alive the Emperor of Ming Dynasty who attacked Chahanhot and robbed his woman, he would humiliate him in the most vicious way in the world!
With this strong desire for revenge, Lin Danhan led the army to come almost day and night. Xiong Tingbi was relieved when he learned the news. He knew very well that he had 300,000 main infantrymen, of which 200,000 were The Imperial Alliance Army is composed of Japanese people, so no matter whether his side wins or loses,It shows that the loss in personnel will not be too great!
At the same time, Xiong Tingbi also believed that if Lin Dan Khan¡¯s 200,000 cavalry wanted to eat his 300,000 infantry, at least half of them would have to die. By then, even if all 300,000 infantry were used up, Lin Dan Khan¡¯s remaining troops would The horse will also be eaten by the four rangers until the bones are left. It can be said that as long as Lin Danhan dares to come, then the Ming Dynasty will win this battle!
With this idea of ??victory, Xiong Tingbi did not hesitate to order the army to advance against Lin Danhan's cavalry. At the same time, he reported his ideas to Zhu Youxiao, hoping that Zhu Youxiao could gather the four rangers at the critical moment. , gave the Mongolian army a fatal blow!
After Zhu Youxiao received Xiong Tingbi's report, he quickly approved it. He generally agreed with Xiong Tingbi's plan, but he did not want to sacrifice 300,000 infantry in exchange for this victory. On the contrary, Zhu Youxiao planned to use the minimum sacrifice in exchange for a glorious victory worthy of being recorded in history!
So Zhu Youxiao ordered Cao Ling, Li Rubai, and Cao Wenzhao to lead their troops to wander on both sides of the Mongolian army, forming a bag large enough to hold Lin Dan Khan's 200,000 cavalry. Although this bag was not dense, it was still big enough. Lin Danhan felt frightened!
So on the vast land, two powerful armies, with different ideas in mind, resolutely rushed towards each other. Surrounded by four tigers, these two armies were waiting for a gluttonous feast. !
When Lin Danhan was thinking about how to restore the glory of his ancestors, the scouts reported that there were four Ming Army cavalry wandering around the army. Lin Danhan didn't care at first, and just sent people and horses to disperse these Ming Army cavalry, but When the troops he sent out were beaten to pieces and returned, worry shrouded Lin Danhan's mind like a dark cloud!
If Lin Dan Khan is surrounded by soldiers and horses from his Chahar tribe at this time, then Lin Dan Khan will choose to retreat without hesitation, but the problem is that the people and horses around him are too mixed. If the next few rangers order to retreat, it will be It was an extremely shameless thing, so for the sake of the dignity of the damn Khan, Lin Danhan had no choice but to rush towards the bottomless abyss in front of him!
At this time, the situation of this war has been completely clear. Both Zhu Youxiao and Lin Danhan have understood the strength and intentions of the other party. All they have to do is complete a fierce collision and use the lives of countless people to decide. Who is the master of this world!
When Xiong Tingbi's army reached the Ergun River, he finally encountered Lin Dan Khan's 200,000 cavalry. Although Lin Dan Khan's cavalry had already crossed the river first and blocked Xiong Tingbi, Xiong Tingbi finally felt at ease. As long as Lin Dan Khan dares to come, the end of this Mongolian Khan will not be far away! (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
