When Han Du left Songting Pass, Lan Yu also received Lao Zhu's order to prepare an army of 150,000 and set off to conquer the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty north.
The army passed by Qingzhou, and Lan Yuzhuma looked at Qingzhou on one side intently.
Wang Bi stepped forward on horseback, glanced at the direction of Lan Yu's gaze, and sighed with a smile: "Brother Lan fought here last year and completely defeated Naha and raised tens of thousands of troops. This time we just start from here. , we will definitely win again.”
Hearing this, Lan Yu looked back at Wang Bi, and a smile gradually appeared on her face.
When Wang Bi saw Lan Yu smiling, he couldn't help but praise, "Brother Lan's battle was really hearty and enjoyable."
"We don't need to talk about the past, let's focus on the present first." Lan Yu smiled reservedly and waved her hand to interrupt Wang Bi's words.
However, listening to Wang Bi's praise of herself, Lan Yu still felt a surge of pride in her heart. Back then, he was able to defeat tens of thousands of light cavalry sent by Naha with one blow here, and now he can also defeat Meng Yuan.
Lan Yu divided tens of thousands of cavalry into five groups and charged forward, responding to each other from afar. When encountering the Meng Yuan tribe, no matter how big or small, they will be destroyed directly. Then they continued to advance without stopping, leaving the infantry behind to slowly follow up and clean up the battlefield.
Therefore, Sapphire's advancement speed is very fast, like lightning. Before the Meng Yuan people got the slightest news, the Ming army kicked them in the face.
The five-pronged army was like a huge comb, combing the grassland from east to west.
Iron hooves stepped on it, and not a single blade of grass grew!
...
Lan Yu led the middle cavalry alone, constantly galloping across the grassland.
On this day, Wang Bi, who was supposed to lead another group of cavalry, hurried to find Lan Yu.
Lan Yu saw Wang Bi running over in a hurry and saw the smile that couldn't be concealed on his face. She couldn't help but asked doubtfully: "Why are you here if you don't lead troops to clean up Meng Yuan?"
Wang Bi rode up to him, tried his best to suppress the surprise in his heart, and said to Lan Yu: "Brother Lan, good news, great news."
"What's the news? Tell me quickly." Seeing Wang Bi looking so excited, Lan Yu was tempted by him even though she hadn't heard the good news from him yet.
"We just found out that Emperor Yuan is fishing in the sea. Brother, this is a once-in-a-millennium opportunity!" Wang Bi leaned beside Lan Yu, his eyes revealing extreme longing.
Not only Wang Bi, Lan Yu's eyes also lit up after learning that Emperor Yuan was fishing in the sea.
The horse tramples the enemy's country and only captures the enemy's leader! This is the lifelong desire of many generals? In fact, in the past, Lan Yu could only think about this scene in her own fantasy.
But now, this picture that only exists in fantasy has hope of becoming a reality? How can Lan Yu tolerate this?
"Is the news accurate?" Lan Yu stared at Wang Bi with wide eyes. He was afraid that the source of Wang Bi's news was unreliable. If so, he would be happy in vain.
If Wang Bi dared to play tricks on him like this, he would definitely make Wang Bi look good. Lan Yu stared at Wang Bi and refused to let up at all, making a vicious decision in her heart.
"Brother Lan, don't worry, the source of the information is absolutely reliable." Wang Bi is not an idiot. He has to confirm such important news over and over again before he dares to come and talk to him.
Reported by Sapphire.
"The news was obtained from a tribe. According to them, they were driven out of Yuerhai by the Yuan army ten days ago. The reason the Yuan army gave them was Nabo. We tortured dozens of people to extract confessions. Everyone's confessions are consistent, no matter the time, place, or the situation of the Yuan army at that time, what they said is the same."
After listening to Wang Bi's words, Lan Yu immediately felt relieved. Since Wang Bi obtained the news in this way, it is almost certainly not false. Since Emperor Yuan only came to Yuyuerhai ten days ago and started to drink alms bowl, it means that he is still in Yuyuerhai now. Every time Bei Yuan performs the ritual, it lasts for a month.
Thinking of this, Lan Yu felt an unusual sense of excitement in her heart.
With almost no hesitation, Lan Yu instantly gave up her original plan to clear the grassland and shouted loudly: "Come here, send the order, the whole army must assemble!"
"Yes~"
What is the use of clearing out the Mongolian people? Killing tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of Meng Yuan people is not as useful as capturing a Yuan Emperor.
After the army gathered together, Lan Yu didn't stop at all, and directly led the army to take a shortcut and go to the location provided by Wang Bi at night. After two days and one night, Lan Yu arrived at Baiyan Well.
Lan Yu's face was a little solemn, and she looked at Wang Bi and asked in a deep voice: "The fishing sea here is less than forty miles away, how come you can't even see the shadow of the Yuan army? Wang Bi, are you sure the information you got is accurate?"
When Emperor Yuan Nabo traveled, he would definitely be accompanied by a large army. If there are tens of thousands of troops, then the camp alone will stretch for more than ten miles, plus the exploring horses released. If Emperor Yuan is really holding a bowl near here, there is no way that not a single person can be seen here.
Wang Bi was also worried. After all, he got the news from Meng Yuan. Although the information obtained through repeated torture of dozens of people is consistent, it is not absolutely foolproof. If the Yuan army deliberately released false news to lure the Ming army to come, it is not impossible.
But this possibility is very small, unless the Yuan army has learned that the Ming Dynasty has begun to attack the grassland again, it is possible to do so carefully.
Seeing that Lan Yu's expression already indicated the intention of retreating, Wang Bi hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Brother Lan, we are leading an army of 150,000 people deep into Mobei. If we get nothing and return to the court, then how can we go back to the army?" The emperor’s explanation?”
Yes, you have come all the way here, and if you just retreat like this, how will you face the emperor? Lan Yu was not reconciled.
Besides, what if, what if Emperor Yuan is really nearby, if he just retreats and misses him. If he finds out in the future, he will definitely regret it for the rest of his life.
"Send the order, settle down here, and continue heading north tomorrow." Lan Yu gritted his teeth and waved his riding whip to give the order.
The army settled down, and in order to avoid exposing their whereabouts, Lan Yu also prohibited lighting fires and cooking. Everyone, including Lan Yu and Wang Bi, used fried noodles with a little water to deal with it.
The next day, Lan Yu led the army to continue northward and rushed directly to the south of Yu'erhai. Looking at the endless blue water and blue sky, Lan Yu's face was extremely cold and stern.
At this time, Wang Bi, who had gone out to investigate early in the morning, came to Lan Yu at an even faster speed.
Seeing the joy on Wang Bi's face, Lan Yu asked in surprise, "Is there any news?"
Wang Bi nodded repeatedly and said without even taking a breath: "We found out, Emperor Yuan is fishing."
Nabo is more than eighty miles northeast of the sea, less than a hundred miles away from us. "
"Okay!!!" Lan Yu suddenly slapped her palms and immediately ordered:
"Wang Bi."
"The general is here!" Wang Bi was also excited and shook his whole body, riding upright on the horse.
"I order you to be the vanguard and follow my general to attack Emperor Yuan in a surprise attack. We will set off immediately."
"Got the order!"
When Lan Yu led the cavalry to arrive near the enemy camp, it was dusk, and strong winds began to blow in Yuerhai. The dust was flying and nothing could be seen for a while.
In addition, the Yuan army believed that the Ming army was short of water and food, so it was impossible for them to penetrate deep into the grassland, so they did not even have the slightest precaution. All the Meng Yuan people were celebrating Emperor Yuan's Nabo, and they didn't even send out horses to explore.
As a result, the Ming army was already close to the camp, and the Yuan army was not aware of it.
Wang Bi pulled the reins, causing the horse to gradually accelerate and run until it entered a state of full charge. Others also followed Wang Bi's charge and took advantage of the wind to rush directly to the front of the camp.
"God's Coming"
"kill!!!"
"kill......"
With iron hoofs covering their faces and shouts of killing all around, the Yuan army realized that they had been attacked. Even now, the Yuan army does not know whether the troops coming are from the Ming Dynasty, so they can only fight in a hurry.
Meng Yuan's camp is also a city, and they will not build a simple wooden wall to block it like the Ming army did. When Emperor Yuan was traveling in Nabo, the camp was filled with yurts standing on the ground. There was not even a horse trap between the camp and the Ming army.
The cavalry of the Ming army charged with all their strength and charged directly in with overwhelming force.
The Yuan army fell apart before they could organize a strong resistance.
The Yuan army was completely defeated!
Emperor Tuogu Si Timur of the Yuan Dynasty was enjoying the singing and dancing of several singers in the golden tent. In the middle was a huge bonfire, on which the hunted prey was roasting sizzlingly. Seeing the joy, Emperor Yuan couldn't help bursting into laughter. He also took out the knife in his hand and cut a piece of meat directly from the roasted lamb leg. He didn't worry about burning his mouth, just threw it into his mouth, chewed it a few times and swallowed it.
The fragrant oil mixed with the wine slid down the Yuan Emperor's throat. The unique taste made the Yuan Emperor couldn't help but let out a long sigh of satisfaction.
But when the Ming army's shouts of killing came, Emperor Yuan suddenly sighed secretly. Having grown up on horseback, he knew that tens of thousands of cavalry were charging at full strength without even looking, just by hearing the movement.
Emperor Yuan knew better than anyone how unstoppable the charge of tens of thousands of cavalry was. Now he knew very well whether the Yuan army could withstand the charge of tens of thousands of cavalry.
Therefore, Emperor Yuan didn't hesitate at all, grabbed Prince Tianbaonu who was sitting next to his left hand, quickly retreated outside the tent, got on his horse, and drove away with only a few dozen mounted guards without any hesitation.
Where there is life, there is hope. Although Emperor Yuan may not necessarily know this sentence, his actions coincide with it.
Strangely enough, when the Ming army had not yet approached, the strong wind around them raised sand and dust, obscuring the Yuan army's sight. Now that the two armies are fighting, the wind has become lighter again, and the sight here has gradually become clearer.
As he broke through the sand and dust, Wang Bi saw the golden tent located in the middle of the camp at a glance.
The golden tent flashed with dazzling red light under the afterglow of the setting sun.
