Chapter 259 Complete Defeat Du Gao¡¯s conditions were only two-point. First, he requested that the escort should also be sent. Even if he did not serve as the main attacking force, he must at least serve as the auxiliary attacker. This time he must let the escort and the Mongolian cavalry use real swords and guns. Have a big fight. The second is that all the spoils of this victory, including the prisoners, must belong to him. Such conditions are simply not conditions for Jamukha. Du Gao sent troops to assist him, which was exactly what he wanted. How could he refuse? As for the trophies and prisoners, these firearms are enough for him. For him, other firearms are not considered at all. "Brother Du, it's settled, you can't break your promise." After hearing Du Gao's conditions, Jamuhe smiled from ear to ear. This was not Du Gao's conditions, it was just a disguised form of funding for himself. If he was still unsure about how to fight against Hesar's 10,000 troops, now that lack of confidence was completely forgotten. "How can I break my promise, but I need to state one thing in advance. What I just said was not approved by the prince. If you want the escort to assist you, you must obtain the prince's permission." Du Gao smiled brightly. said. "What's the problem? I'll go talk to the prince." Jamukha didn't care. If Du Gao was asked to send troops to assist, he had a plan. If he kept it, the King of Xia would agree to Du Gao sending troops. After being reminded by Du Gao, Jamuka went back to discuss with his men all night and finally came up with a complete plan. Early the next morning, he didn't bother to stay up for a moment, his eyes were red, he got on his horse and went straight to the palace. Jamuka¡¯s combat plan mainly focused on firearms. He first sent people to sneak into the valley. Since Jamuka wanted to ambush him there, he would definitely not dare to let people guard the valley. As for his own people, they just need to lay mines on the hillside and keep it safe for Hesar to drink from. But if you want to annihilate all the 10,000 people from the Qiyan tribe, it is not enough to rely on your own 2,000 people. You must also ask the prince to send 2,000 escorts to assist so that no one from Hesar can escape. "Total annihilation? Are you sure?" Han Zhongwei asked. He thought that it would be good to defeat the Qiyan tribe, but he didn't expect that Jamuka had such a big appetite that he wanted to annihilate them all. "As long as the prince gives me another two thousand troops to block the two openings in the valley, it will be harder for them to escape than to reach the sky." Jamukha said with confidence. "When they see defeat, won't they go back again?" Han Zhongwei asked. "Your Majesty doesn't know something about our Mongolian cavalry. Once the cavalry starts charging, there is no way to turn back. Besides, there are hillsides on both sides of the valley. Although it is a gentle slope, it is easy to come down. I'm afraid it won't be that easy to go back." Jamukha said. . "Oh, it seems like it is really possible to annihilate them all?" Han Zhongwei said with a smile. If he could annihilate them all, of course he would not want to let anyone in the Qiyan Department go. If one more person is killed here, Temujin will have less strength in the future. One point, as long as it can reduce Temujin's strength, Han Zhongwei is willing to do anything. As for Du Gao sending people to assist, Han Zhongwei certainly wouldn't have any objections. Last time when a dozen small tribes from Mongolia came to attack, they were violently hit by landmines at the beginning. The escort team came out from behind and basically chased them. Just cut someone in the back. Although a large number of mines and grenades will be used this time, the trapped beasts will definitely fight back desperately. A bloody battle will test the true combat effectiveness of the escort team. With Han Zhongwei's approval, Du Gao immediately took action. He sent out a regiment of escorts. They first broke them into pieces and exited from Xiping. They did not take the valley road at all, but in the end they went around to the north of the valley. , guarding the northern exit of the valley. Although Du Gao had to make a big circle, when Jamuka arrived in front of the valley, Du Gao personally led a group of guards to firmly control the north exit of the valley. The so-called tight control is definitely not a joke. In addition to leaving a curved safe passage for yourself, there is a minefield a hundred meters wide, densely blocking the entrance of the valley. ??For this period of time, Hesar has been feeling uneasy. There has been no news about Jamuka for such a long time, and Timuge took a ten-man team to inquire about the news. Five people died and three were injured. In the end, he actually took the chief to the Black City alone. When Hesar got the news, he almost abandoned his 10,000 troops and led his people to recover Teemuge. But in the end, Hesar still held back. He was always a prudent person, and now the most important thing for him was to ambush Jamukha. For other things, even if something happened to Temuge, he couldn't focus on one and lose the other. After waiting for six days and six nights, there was finally news about Jamukha. After getting the accurate news, Hesar temporarily forgot about Tiemuge. He believed that Tiemuge had learned about Jamuka's departure. Later, Zihui will follow all the way, and it will not be too late to meet Jamuka again after he is captured alive. Maybe Temuge will suddenlyNot necessarily now. With his character, when he saw Jamukha, he would have already had the intention to take action. It might be hard work to endure it till now. After receiving the news about Jamuka, Jamuka's mood finally began to improve, and he immediately began to mobilize his troops and generals to prepare for the battle. According to reports from his subordinates, Jamuka's people set out from Black City early this morning and could reach the valley as early as the afternoon. As long as they don't cross the valley in the dark, Hesar is 90% sure to keep Jamuka here. But Jamukhin didn¡¯t return home as quickly as Hesar imagined, and he could only travel less than a hundred miles in one day. You must know that all his men are cavalry. If you are in a hurry, you can arrive in an hour. But now, it takes a whole day to travel no more than a hundred miles. Hesar even wondered if Jamuka had seen through the ambush in the valley. If the detective hadn't told him that there were dozens of carriages in Jamuka's team, which affected the speed, he might have changed his arrangement. It was not until noon the next day that Jamuka's team arrived belatedly. At this time, Jamuka had already gathered all the troops and was ready to attack the valley at any time. Things went as smoothly as expected, perhaps because this place was not far from the Black City and had just entered the grassland. Jamuka didn't even send anyone to explore the path, so he just walked in with his men, horses and carriages. poured into the valley. When their team was about halfway into the valley, Hesar ordered his men to blow the horns, and five thousand cavalry from the east and west mountains all attacked Jamuka in the valley. As soon as the horn of the attack sounded, the Jamuka tribe in the valley also received the alarm. At this time, the Jamuka tribe had just entered half of the valley. Seeing an ambush, Jamuka immediately ordered the people to turn their horses and return to the original route. "Searching for death." When Hesar saw that Jamukha actually ordered to go back the way he came, he sneered. Jamukha really had a false reputation. A man like this could be called a hero on the grassland. It would make the world laugh at him if he told it. The most important thing in a duel between cavalry is speed. As long as the horse's sprint speed increases, it is simply unstoppable. Now if Jamukha orders his army to launch a counterattack against Hesar on the hillside, there may be a glimmer of hope. Although Jamuka's army attacked from the bottom up, its speed was definitely not as fast as Hesar's army. A disastrous defeat was inevitable. Once Jamuka's army was charged by Hesar's army, Jamuka's army would definitely be smashed to pieces. But in that case, at least part of Jamuka's army would be able to rush out. If Jamuka was prepared to escape, he might be able to escape. But now Jamukha has made the army turn around, so his army cannot have any speed. Although his army can completely withdraw from the valley before Hesar's army rushes into the valley, what's the use? A stationary cavalry met a cavalry that was sprinting at the highest speed, and the attacker was five times his number. Jamuka's army had no power to fight back and could only be reduced to a group of slaughtered sheep. Jamukha's army was highly disciplined. When the cavalry led by Hesar had only reached halfway up the hillside, he had already withdrawn from the valley with both men and vehicles. To Hesar's surprise, Jamukha did not leave, and even ordered People gathered together and blocked the valley entrance, just like a group of sheep washing their necks and preparing to be slaughtered. "That's not right." Hesar has been paying attention to Jamuka's army. Now Jamuka's performance is worse than that of any of his own men. He has no military qualities at all. This is obviously impossible. Since things are abnormal and he is a monster, Jamuhe is also considered to have a "slight reputation". Although Hesar despises him from the bottom of his heart, if Jamuhe doesn't even know this, then the people in his tribe are blind. He would choose such a person to be the chief. But it was already too late. Hesar was leading the entire team. Now the speed of driving the team had increased, and it was still going downhill. It was impossible to stop the team. "Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom" When we were still more than two hundred feet away from the valley, a huge explosion suddenly came from under our feet. The extremely powerful air wave swept away people and horses within dozens of feet around the mine. It hit the sky. Hesar took the lead, and his horse was the first to "win the prize." Although Hesar was also an invincible warrior of the Qiyan tribe, under the explosion of three kilograms of black gunpowder, Hesar's armor was damaged by iron nails and iron The film made a "dang-dang-dang" sound. Although the Mongolian generals are also equipped with armor, which can be said to be sophisticated, it is far inferior to that of the Song Dynasty. Even countries such as Xixia are far inferior. Hesar's armor only protected important parts such as his chest and back, so unfortunately an iron nail was driven into the back of his head. He was still in the air, but only half of Hesar's body was left. tone. At this moment, what Hesar thought about was not his own injuries, nor the fate of the 10,000 troops brought out this time. The fate of himself and the 10,000 troops brought out this time has long been a foregone conclusion and cannot be changed. At this time, there was only one image in his mind, that was his wife and children. Before he left the army, he had made a good promise. Most of them would be together in a month.I can go back in more than half a month, but now, I'm afraid I will never go back. "Zamukha, you are a vicious wolf on the grassland, pretending to be a pig and a tiger to seduce outsiders. I have ten thousand elite troops in the Qiyan Department, and I haven't even touched Jamuka's side. I am unwilling to give in, and I am unwilling to give up. When he fell heavily to the ground, Temujin's brother, the brave general of the Begging Department, spit out a mouthful of blood, looked in the direction of the Begging Department, and died unwillingly. The successive explosions were like a huge shovel, shoveling Hesar's cavalry into the air. Not to mention the iron nails, iron pieces and the shock waves of the air waves, they fell from the air like this. That's eight points of a life lost. Although the cavalry in front stepped on a mine, the cavalry behind could not hold back their momentum at all. No matter whether there was an abyss or a mine array in front of them, they ran forward "without hesitation" and "continuously". Jamuka's people mined a total of 600 landmines on the hillsides on both sides. Each landmine was thirty feet apart. The scope of this minefield was quite astonishing. Basically, 10,000 people in Hesar can be "taken care of". Even if there are those fish that slip through the net occasionally, when they arrive in the valley, everyone panics, and they all become turtles in the urn. Jamuka's people and Du Gao's people attack from both sides, and the Qiyan Department, which has already been bombed into disgrace, is basically Vulnerable, Du Gao originally thought of having a showdown with the real Mongolian cavalry, but the current situation was exactly the same as the last time the Mongolian tribes jointly invaded the border. Fortunately, he only left two companies at the mouth of the valley in the north. The remaining men were divided into two halves and went to the east and west hills respectively to copy Hesar's retreat. This was an unintentional move, but he was able to capture it. There are nearly a thousand people from the Qiyan tribe. These nearly a thousand beggars have basically become infantry, and the horses under their crotches have long since become crazy horses. These are all smart. When they saw a change in front, the loud explosions would have already caused them to panic. The horses seemed to have taken drugs and ran like crazy towards the valley. If you sit on a horse again, you will definitely die. The previous examples are enough. The person was directly torn into pieces, and even if he didn't die, he would still be tired of the mount. So they jumped off the horse without even thinking about it. The beloved horse they got along with day and night went crazy, and they couldn't control it. After all, their lives were at stake. They have lived on horseback all their lives. They jumped off the galloping horse, rolled in the air, and then rolled around again after landing, but they didn't hurt anything. Once you land, your body becomes your own. Black smoke was billowing at the foot of the mountain ahead, and there were explosions one after another. If they were killed, they would not ambush Jamuka again. Now even fools know that this time it was not the Qiyan tribe ambushing Jamuka, but Jamuka in turn plotted against the Qiyan tribe. When they climbed back to the top of the slope, they were shocked to find that their escape route had been blocked. They jumped off the horse, just begging for their lives. They threw away long bows and scimitars before they jumped off the horse, fearing that they would accidentally hurt themselves. Now facing an army armed to the teeth, even if they are the bravest warriors on the Mongolian grasslands, they dare not fight back. What's more, they can even abandon their beloved horses at any time, so how can they be called warriors? "Happy, happy" Jamuka only charged for one round in the valley, and there were no more soldiers from the Qiyan tribe alive. This made him feel very happy. The Qiyan tribe is also one of the largest tribes on the grassland. The soldiers of the Qiyan tribe have always been known for their bravery, but this time, 10,000 elite soldiers faced off against 2,000 of their own troops, but they were killed by themselves. The most ridiculous thing is that Hesar wanted to capture him alive at first, but he never thought that before he entered the valley, he would be blown up by a landmine and go to see Changshengtian. Although one landmine costs a hundred times, this makes Jamuka feel a little distressed. But now Jamuka is willing to pay 1,000 guan, or even 10,000 guan for the landmine at Hesar's feet. A mere 600 landmines can be exchanged for the lives of 10,000 elite soldiers of the Qiyan Department. This kind of deal is really a good deal. If we were to judge life by price, a soldier from the Qiyan tribe only had six guans, how expensive is that? Even if it was not expensive and he could buy the life of a beggar-faced man at such a price, Jamuka would pay the bill without hesitation, even if it cost him sixty guans to buy a beggar-faced man's life. "You are happy, but I am holding my breath. Jamuka, this time does not count. Next time you fight against the Qiyan Department, you must remember to bring a message to me, and then I will take someone to kill you. "Du Gao looked depressed. "Brother Du wants to kill someone, and there are plenty of opportunities. I will let you kill him happily when the time comes." Jamukha was in a good mood and hurriedly agreed. Little did he know that it was his words that Du Gao was waiting for. "What's the 'time'? I've almost become moldy after staying in Heishui. It's better to choose the right time than to hit the sun. I think you'll wait for me here for a day. After I send the prisoners from the Begging Division back, I'll go with you." How about going back?" Du Gao climbed up along the pole and said with a smile. "Brother Du, you are the prince's capable general. Is the prince willing to let you go to the grassland with me?" Jamuka did not doubt Du Gao's intentions.?I just feel that Han Zhongwei may not allow it. "We Han people have a saying that military orders will not be given to generals when they are away. I won't go back either. I will just let my men escort the prisoners back." Du Gao said with a smile. "Zamuhe is very happy to have brother Du help him." Jamuhe laughed up to the sky. Du Gao had no conflict of interest with him. His soldiers may be slightly inferior to his own elite soldiers in terms of weapons, but now that we have entered the age of firearms, When he was no longer showing off his bravery, with Du Gao's help, his chances of winning were several percent higher. "That's okay, but on the grassland, it seems that fighting with two thousand men and horses is not fun enough. No matter what, I have to bring a division to enjoy it. I wonder if you agree." Du Gao said, Han Zhongwei's escort team now has fifteen people Division, sending a division into Mongolia will not hinder the defense of northern Xixia. Of course, these 10,000 people must have a certain number of old guards. They are the confidants of Han Zhongwei. "A 'what'?" Jamuka said in surprise. Now that Du Gao has two thousand people, it is not enough. How could he take a ten-man team with only one "what" to the grassland? "I'm talking about a 'division', a total of 10,000 people. When we get to your territory, you won't let my troops starve, right? Not to mention paying you, you have to provide food and grass, right?" Du Gao said, As for making up for the shortage of ordnance, Jamuka bought his firearms in Heicheng. Of course Du Gao would not let him provide them. "Brother Du, let alone 10,000 people, let's say 100,000 people. I would rather let my men go hungry than let your men and horses not have enough to eat." Jamukha said loudly. "Well, with your words, it's worth it even if I drag you back and get a scolding from the prince." Du Gao laughed loudly. In just one day, the remaining 8,000 troops arrived in the valley, met with Jamuka's people, and headed towards his tribe. Along the way, Jamuka was still strangely tight, and Du Gao was so efficient that he could pull out eight thousand people in one day. Little did he know that these people had already made full preparations, and as soon as Du Gao's order arrived , they can set off at any time. forward from( )
