    Chapter 265: Besieged It has to be said that Jamuka was very unlucky. Not only was his whereabouts discovered by the 2,000 people led by Hechiwen, but the scouts sent by Hechiwen also contacted Temujin, the Great Khan of the Begging Department.  .  Temujin was overjoyed when he heard the news about Jamuka. The first order he gave was very strange. He asked everyone to leave Jamuka twenty miles away, and to find a hiding place to hide, and then personally  Take Hechiwen quietly to Jamuka's station to scout for information.  Jamuka¡¯s camp was no different from an ordinary temporary military camp. All the war horses were circled in one corner, and a dozen tents were set up on the other side. There were dozens of bonfires in the open space, lighting up the entire camp.  Therefore, Temujin and Hechiwen walked five miles away without being discovered by Jamuka's people.  Temujin had not made up his mind as to whether to launch a surprise attack in the dark or to attack by force yesterday. He chose to observe the situation in person.  Although Temujin did not know that without investigation, there is no right to speak, but in fact he did just that.  In a bush not far from Jamuka's camp, Temujin and Hechiwen were already hiding there. Temujin even covered himself with some weeds, so that he would not be discovered easily even in the daytime.  , not to mention it¡¯s still night, so there¡¯s no need to worry about being seen.  "Khan, it seems that Jamuka has brought at most a thousand people." He Chiwen and Temujin stood very close and whispered.  "Even if there are only 1,000 people, it is not easy. You must know that Hesar led 10,000 people to ambush his 2,000 people. But what happened? We only have 4,000 people now." Temujin looked at the military camp in front of him.  direction, replied softly.  "Although Hesar said he was going to ambush Jamukha, he was actually ambushed by Jamukha. Belgutai was the same this time, and was plotted by Jamukha. It's just a matter of time. I believe Jamukha was never like that.  I'm so lucky. If we can make a surprise attack at night, maybe" Hechiwen began to feel a little excited when he saw that Jamuli's camp was sparsely guarded.  "Hechiwen, if you had a firearm like Jamuka in your hand, what would you do when setting up camp?" Temujin asked instead without answering directly.  "That goes without saying, of course we have to bury dozens or hundreds of them around the camp, so no one dares to sneak attack. Ah" He Chiwen suddenly screamed in a low voice at the end of his sentence.  "You all know it, doesn't Jamuka know it? Wait, I want to see what this is." Temujin has a tenacious character. In order to see Jamuka's firearm with his own eyes, he would rather put down his sweat.  Your Majesty, stay here personally.  Throughout the night, Temujin and Hechiwen lay there motionless. Early the next morning, Jamuka's scouts came out in all directions. Temujin counted more than a hundred people who had been sent out. They were sent out from a distance.  Put it ten miles away.  But these people were very strange when they came out of the camp. Instead of riding on horses, they led their horses and walked very carefully. Their eyes were fixed on the ground, as if a devil would appear underground at any time.  It wasn't until they had walked more than a hundred feet that they got on their horses and ran in all directions.  Apart from this, the camp did not appear to be preparing to go out. Although everyone was dressed neatly, the most critical things such as tents and railings had not been packed away.  It wasn¡¯t until the dispatched scouts came back to report that another group of troops came out of Jamuka¡¯s military camp.  This team of about fifty people did not ride horses or carry weapons. Each person only held a small shovel in his hand.  Although Jamuka didn¡¯t take Du Gao¡¯s words to heart, after returning to the grassland, he still acted much more cautiously. Especially when it was time to clear mines in the morning, he sent scouts ten miles away.  But this time Jamukha miscalculated, and his mortal enemy Temujin had already arrived under his nose.  After these dozens of people walked out of the camp, they became very cautious, as if they were afraid of disturbing something.  After walking about ten feet, they either squatted down or lay on the grass. With the shovels in their hands, they gently removed the pieces of turf, and carefully pulled out round iron balls from the ground.  The iron ball was very big, almost as big as a watermelon. It could be seen that there were a lot of things inside. Temujin and Hechiwen looked at each other, and both of them saw shock in each other's eyes. This was obviously Jamukha.  The Xixia firearms relied on for victory.  Jamukha's soldiers were more careful when holding firearms than when holding their darlings. They held the mine in their hands, carefully opened a small cover on it, reached inside and flipped it, and a look of relief immediately appeared on their faces.  With a look on his face, he put the mine behind him and looked for the next target like a thief.  These landmines were only used for early warning. Jamuka only laid more than 200 landmines in a fan shape with the camp as the center, with an average of less than five mines per person.  Landmines are easy to lay but time-consuming to line up. Although there were only five mines and the specific locations were known, it took nearly an hour to place all the mines.?Get them all out.  After all the landmines were collected, the camp was finally ready to open. In less than half an hour, everything was packed. Jamuka took the lead, looking at everything and walking proudly in front. Temujin could even see him clearly in the grass.  Open eyebrows.  It wasn¡¯t until Jamuka¡¯s men had gone away that Temujin turned around, but he didn¡¯t stand up either. He lay motionless in the grass all night. This was not an easy job.  Looking at the white clouds in the sky, Temujin seemed to see Jamuka. He could see him, but catching him was not that simple.  "Hechiwen, what plan do you have to defeat Jamuka now?" Temujin knew that there were still Jamuka's scouts in the distance, and now was not the time to stand up, otherwise, even with the great Khan of the Qiyan tribe, he would  Without war horses, it would be difficult to deal with Jamuka's scouts.  "There is only one way, to attack by force, to attack from the front." He Chiwen has now firmed up his original idea. When Jamuka was camping, there was no way to deal with him. As long as he was marching, those firearms would not be able to exert their power.  , only then did the Qiyan tribe have a chance to defeat Jamuka.  "A frontal attack is one way, but there is a more reliable way." Temujin suddenly smiled and said.  "Safe?" When He Chiwen faced Jamuka's firearm, the word "safe" no longer existed in his mind.  "He Chiwen, let me ask you, how many men and horses does Jamuka have?" Temujin seemed to have suddenly figured out a key point and asked with a smile.  "More than a thousand people, sweat, let's go back quickly so that we can gather the team and attack Jamuka in front." He Chiwen felt that only in the case of a sudden attack, it would be possible to render Jamuka's firearms ineffective.  Otherwise, there is no chance at all.  "Why are you so anxious? Jamuka only has a thousand people and we have four thousand. Now he is showing us what we are doing secretly. It will be easy to deal with him." Temujin said with confidence.  "Easy? But Jamuka has firearms." Hechiwen said anxiously. If Temujin wasn't the leader of the tribe, he would have wanted to touch his forehead to see if he had a fever and was talking nonsense.  "Firearms are a double-edged sword. Although they belong to Jamuka, they can sometimes be used by me." Temujin said with a smile on his face. After seeing the situation outside the Jamuka military camp this morning, he had always thought about it.  A plan is now finally taking shape.  "For my use?" He Chiwen opened his eyes wide, looking like he couldn't believe it.  "Yes, you saw what happened this morning. Jamuka would bury firearms outside his camp every night. If we suddenly surrounded Jamuka, those firearms would become an invisible wall, and Jamuka's people would be unable to  We can¡¯t go in even if we come out,¡± Temujin said with a smile.  "Yes, although they have left a way in and out, can't we also find it? Maybe only a few dozen people can trap them. This time Jamuka calls himself cocooned." He Chiwen laughed and said,  Yes, even though that firearm is very powerful, wouldn't it be fine if you don't touch it?  On the contrary, you can also use firearms to trap Jamuka and then catch the turtle in the jar.  Now Hechiman Subway Mu Zhen admires that it is definitely like the surging river, endless "In this way, not only can Jamuka be captured alive, but also his firearms can be taken as his own. Jamuka now relies heavily on firearms.  We will treat him with his own methods and let him be controlled by his own weapons," Temujin said.  "Okay, let's make Jamuka look good tonight." He Chiwen was overjoyed. He was finally able to say this. When Jamuka is caught, he will be fried.  Jamuka¡¯s destination is almost certain to be back to the Zatala tribe on the plateau, so his route and direction are easy to track.  What's more, Temujin now has four thousand troops. Although Temujin requested that Jamuka's tribe must not be disturbed, he sent hundreds of teams of scouts and it was still easy to find out Jamuka's whereabouts.  Jamuka¡¯s military camp was still the same as last night. More than 200 landmines were placed outside the military camp before dark, leaving only a narrow passage for the scouts.  But this time, outside Jamuka's camp, there were at least fifty people lying in the grass watching the people from the Zatala tribe on the plateau lay mines. As soon as one was buried, they immediately recorded the location on the sheepskin, and all the mines were  It was quickly pointed out one by one that although the people from the Qiyan Department did not know how to clear mines, this time they would definitely not send him to his death in vain.  One night, everything was peaceful, and early the next morning, in Jamuka's military camp, just like yesterday, a hundred-man scouts were dispatched.  But as soon as they got out of the mine array, they heard the rapid sound of horse hooves, and soon, a black cloud floated from the sky.  The captain of the Plateau Zadabu scout team soon discovered to his shock that it was not a black cloud at all, but a cavalry.  The Plateau Zada ??tribe is alone this time.In the war, there are no allies at all. No need to think about it, they are the enemy.  They wanted to retreat to the military camp, but it was already night and the road back had been blocked. Fifty soldiers from the Qiyan Department, each armed with a bow and arrow, blocked their retreat.  Within a few breaths, the army of the Qiyan tribe had already arrived. Before Jamuka could even react, his military camp was already surrounded.  The scouts who had just gone out to inquire for information didn't need to guess. Their fates could be known. None of them could return safely and would either be killed or captured.  In fact, fifty people are enough to surround Jamuka's military camp.  However, surrounding the general camp can pose the greatest psychological threat to the Plateau Zatara tribe. Of course, it can also prevent the Plateau Zatara tribe from quietly clearing mines and open another channel.  Jamuka knew something was wrong when he heard the sound of horse hooves. After his Claw Scout was blocked from retreating, he originally wanted to send someone out to assist, but the passage he left in the mine array was not conducive to rapid progress.  Passage.  This passage is winding and can only be walked, not horseback riding at all.  And you have to be careful when you go out, so you don't step on landmines.  Walking on such a passage can only be described as a turtle's speed. It is good to be able to protect yourself. If someone fires a salvo, most of them will be killed or injured.  Therefore, although he wanted to go out and rescue them, in reality he could only watch them die.  A hundred-man squadron. This was Jamuka¡¯s heaviest loss since the introduction of firearms.  "Chief, let's rush out?" "Charge? Look how many people are outside? At least three thousand people. Can we rush out? Besides, there are all mines outside the military camp. Taking a safe passage is tantamount to death.  "If you want to rush out, it's better to surrender directly." Jamuka smiled bitterly. Du Gao once reminded him that the safe passage outside the military camp does not need to be curved like the one outside the black city, but must be straight to facilitate quick response.  However, Jamukha believed that leaving a straight line would also leave hidden dangers, so he did not adopt it.  It's okay now, I'm trapped in a cocoon.  "Then what should we do now?" "Be on guard and wait for help." Jamuka said. There are three or four thousand Qiyan soldiers outside. Maybe Temujin will be outside too. With his own strength of less than a thousand,  If a person wants to break out without the assistance of firearms and is surrounded by three to four thousand Qiyan soldiers, it is simply an egg against a rock.  Of course, if there is a straight line of safe passage, Jamuka still has a chance, but now, unless there is a flaw in the begging department, his hope of breaking out is close to zero.  "The Great Khan has a clever plan. Now Jamukha has become a turtle in an urn. We can steam or boil it, whatever you want." He Chiwen looked at the Jamukha military camp a hundred feet away and laughed.  Although the Qiyan Department has now mastered the layout of the mines outside Jamuka, he still dare not approach within a hundred feet.  Life is only once for everyone, whether he is a Khan, a general, or an ordinary person.  "How many of Jamuka's scouts captured alive?" Temujin was not yet complacent. As long as Jamuka was still inside safe and sound, he would not be happy.  "There are sixty-two people alive." He Chiwen said.  "Well, you go and interrogate them to see if any of them know how to dig firearms in the ground." Temujin said, as long as he has such a person in his hands, Jamuka will be captured soon.  The soldiers of the Plateau Zatara tribe who are now captured are not only prisoners of the Qiyan tribe, but also slaves of the Qiyan tribe.  There are unwritten rules on the grassland. Unless you want to die, you can only be a slave with all your heart, and you will never be able to escape the sea of ??misery even if you die.  But this time, the soldiers from the Plateau Zatala tribe who accompanied Jamuka on the expedition were all his personal followers. It was possible to make them prisoners of the Qiyan tribe, but it was impossible for them to betray Jamuka.  He Chiwen continued to ask questions one after another, and even tortured them had no effect.  "Use deep-fried oil." After Temujin heard the news, he said coldly. He had killed three brothers and nearly 15,000 soldiers this time. Now in order to get this secret, he would use any means.  Many people talk about it smoothly, but when they actually encounter it, only they know the feeling.  Seeing their companions being fried alive, their miserable screams made them vomit out even the food they had eaten in the past few days.  Especially after seeing the golden bodies that were blown up, the terror quickly spread throughout the body.  "Actually, if you don't tell us, there is a way for us to know. Isn't it just to handle it gently, open the top cover, and press the opportunity inside? Since you don't cooperate, no wonder the Qiyan Department is ruthless. Someone comes and kills them one by one.  Put them all into the oil pan," He Chiwen said loudly.  Holding a carrot in one hand and a stick in the other, this trick works well at any time.  Although He Chiwen¡¯s carrots are almost invisible now, heThe huge praise is terrifying.  Think about it, after putting it in the frying pan, it will be fried to a golden color and smell delicious, but no one will have an appetite. On the contrary, they will only vomit, and keep vomiting.  "Khan, they did it. The firearm is called a landmine, and its effective explosion range is within thirty feet." With the cooperation of these people, the people of the Qiyan Department immediately accepted the rapid popularization of firearms. Plateau Zadala  The troops not only dug out dozens of landmines, but also donated the grenades they carried.  "What is that in your hand?" Temujin asked.  "This thing looks inconspicuous, but it is actually a kind of firearm. What is it called a grenade? It is very powerful within two feet." He Chiwen said with a smile.  "Oh, grenade, that's great. With this thing, even if Jamukha wanted to resist, it would be impossible." Temujin said happily when he heard that the grenade had an explosion range of two feet.  Jamukha's more than 200 landmines covered a hundred feet around the general camp, but now Temujin not only knows the detailed location of each of his landmines, but also learned how to clear mines from the captured soldiers of the Plateau Zatara tribe.  .  The Qiyan tribe and the Plateau Zatala tribe, which were originally separated by a mine field of 100 feet, soon became closer.  It was not until 50 feet that the distance between the two sides did not get closer because the soldiers of the Zhadara tribe on the plateau could shoot bows and arrows to prevent mine clearance.  But this is also temporary, and Temujin has already thought of ways to clear the mines.  "Jamuka, I am Temujin, can you hear my voice?" Temujin said loudly, standing fifty feet away.  "Temujin, if you want to avenge Temuge, Hesar, and Belgutai, then attack in. I will never be afraid of you." Jamukha also said loudly.  "Zamuka, we are safe. Don't worry, even if you kill all my brothers, I will not kill you. Can you come out and see me now?" Temujin said.  "Why don't you dare?" Jamuka was also a hero on the grassland. Since Temujin dared to come to see him, there was no reason for him to be a coward. ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
