Forty miles!
This is not a long distance, especially for cavalry, running forty miles is simply a piece of cake.
Han Du immediately called everyone in and ordered the army to set up camp here. At the same time, he asked Xu Chengfei and Azashili to send cavalry to explore again tomorrow.
Set up camp on the spot to avoid being attacked by others. After all, he can discover them, but no one can guarantee that they will also discover him.
The next morning, the two teams of cavalry went again to find out information about the traces of the battle.
Azashili synthesized the information and reported to Han Du, "Judging from the traces there, it was indeed a war, about half a month ago."
"Who are the two sides fighting?" Han Du asked curiously.
Azashili lowered his eyes and said solemnly: "They should be the Tatar tribe and Oara tribe we are looking for."
"Oh? This is really... you can't find anything without wearing iron shoes, and it takes no effort..." A smile appeared on Han Du's face.
The two tribes he was looking for were right under his nose, and what was even better was that they seemed to be fighting. Is there anything better than this?
Han Du said: "Can you tell who won the battle?"
Azashi nodded and said: "The people of the Tatar tribe were abandoned in the wilderness, but the Oara tribe was well buried. It should be that the Oara tribe won. However, the losses of the Tatar tribe were not big, so the following From the official's perspective, they were not completely defeated and retreated calmly."
Abandoning corpses in the wilderness on the grassland is almost equivalent to being sent into the mouth of a wolf. Even the grassland people are not willing to do this.
Han Du smacked his chin, and after thinking for a while, he said, "Then you mean, the Wara and Tatars are still fighting?"
When Azashili heard this, he knew that Han Du wanted to make a profit, so he said: "This subordinate can't guarantee it. After all, half a month has passed. No one knows what will happen during this half month. However, according to the official’s guess, the victory between Oara and Tatar may not have been decided yet.”
Han Du suddenly raised his head, looked at Azashili, and asked, "Can you find them?"
"You can give it a try. After all, it's been such a long time, so I can't guarantee it!" Azashili nodded heavily, "What the Marquis means is that we..."
Han Du immediately laughed, "If we can find them, then let's join in the fun."
"Okay, I will order you down immediately."
Waiting patiently, another half month passed.
On this day, Azashili finally brought good news to Handu and discovered traces of the Oara tribe and the Tatar tribe.
What else is there to say?
Han Du immediately summoned a large army and marched towards the Oara tribe and the Tatar tribe.
...
A battle of cavalry duel was taking place on this grassland, and the two sides fighting were Oara and Tatar.
The situation was very unfavorable for the Tatar tribe. Oara relied on the strength of their numbers to completely suppress the Tatar tribe and fight one-sidedly.
Benya was stunned when he saw this, but he was helpless. He did not expect that this time the Oara tribe would mobilize in full force, and even the Oara king Ugeqi Hashha would come in person.
If he had known earlier, he would never have come alone.
It's a pity that it's all over now, the situation is over and he has no way to turn back!
When the Tatar tribe was in desperate situation, suddenly Benya heard a faint sound of thunder in his ears. He was a soldier himself, so he was very familiar with such sounds.
This is the kind of sound that only a large number of cavalry can charge, and at least a hundred thousand or more cavalry can charge with such a dull sound.
But he and the Oara tribe were the only ones who were the largest on the grassland. It was impossible for other tribes to have 100,000 cavalry. Where did these cavalry come from?
Ugeqi Hashiha on the other side also noticed such a movement. But even so, he had no intention of withdrawing his troops. Seeing that the Tatar tribe was about to be unable to hold on any longer, Ugqi Hashiha would not let go of the fat meat that had reached his mouth.
The two of them looked in the direction of the sound.
Looking around, everyone wanted to know what was going on.
On the hillside in the distance, a cavalry figure first appeared, and then quickly increased to a company and row of cavalry appearing on the hillside. Then, like a tide, countless cavalry spread from the other side of the hillside, as far as the eye can see.
Benya's face was full of despair. It was like there was a wolf in front of him and a tiger and leopard behind him. Originally, the Wara tribe alone was difficult for him to resist, but now there are so many cavalry from unknown origins.
Looking at these menacing cavalry, Ben Yasili also knew that they were not just passing by.
"Let's go, go now. If you don't go, it will be too late!" Ben Yasili had only one thought in his mind, and he immediately whipped the horse whip down hard. He didn't even care about the army under his command, and fled quickly with only his own soldiers.
Seeing the coaches fleeing, the morale of the Tatar tribe dropped to freezing point in an instant, and they were easily defeated by the Oara tribe and fled in all directions.
The Wara tribe did not take the opportunity to pursue them, but instead came to meet the cavalry that had just appeared.
Two huge cavalrymen were charging closer and closer. On the Oala side, the entire cavalrymen formed a crescent moon formation, like a bloody mouth opening towards the Ming army, as if they wanted to swallow these cavalrymen in one bite.
On the Ming army's side, Azashili and Xu Chengfei led their own cavalry and outflanked them from the left and right sides, as if they were opening their arms to strangle the Wala cavalry to death.
But who can be more skilled and win the final victory still depends on the result.
When the Wala people saw the response of the Ming army, they felt happy. They thought that the commander of these cavalry was an idiot. How could there be any reason to put the soldiers and horses on both sides and expose the commander in the middle?
In this way, you only need to attack directly from the middle to kill the opponent's commander.
The commander-in-chief was killed, which had a huge impact on morale. Morale is gone, so there is no need to talk about fighting. Just like Benya's mistake just now, once the coach escaped, of course the soldiers below would no longer have the slightest intention to fight. They were all thinking about how to escape to save their lives.
Therefore, Ugqi Hashha not only did not order to intercept the cavalry on the left and right sides, but even ordered the cavalry to charge directly into the commander's camp.
But what the Wala people didn't expect was that before they could fight the cavalry on the right, they were stunned by a blast of thunderbolts.
Where have the Wala people ever seen anything as powerful as the divine thunderbolt? Thousands of people fell off their horses upon contact.
The Ming army was not willing to fight. After firing two rounds, they distanced themselves from the Ora cavalry and kept firing outside the range of the Ora people's bows and arrows.
This kind of fighting method instantly confused the Wala people. In the past, they were the only ones who relied on the long endurance of their horses and their bows and arrows to fool others like this. Now they are being played around with in the same way.
Seeing that the cavalry under his command could only be beaten passively and could not even fight back, Ugqiha Shiha strengthened his idea and once again ordered the cavalry to attack the opponent's flag.
When the Ora cavalry heard the horn sound, they immediately concentrated and charged toward the center.
But how could Xu Chengfei let go of the Wala people so easily? Seeing that they wanted to leave, he immediately stuck to them again.
Han Du stood on the hillside, and it was extremely open below. The Oara and Tatars are really good at choosing places. Hundreds of thousands of cavalry can be used here.
Han Du looked at the war horse charging straight towards him through the telescope, and grinned: "Do you think I'm a soft persimmon here? Do you want to take a stab at it?"
Ugqi Hashiha thought that the Chinese army was a weak point, but he didn't know that this was exactly what Han Du wanted.
Neatly arranged cannons were placed on the hillside, just waiting for the Warabu to come and cause a bloody mess.
No matter what tactics the cavalry uses, whether they retreat like riding on a wall, or dig through like arrows, they still have to concentrate the cavalry, right? Only when concentrated can the cavalry exert its great power.
And Han Du was also waiting for this opportunity. Seeing the Ora cavalry gathered together, they were like arrows, heading straight for him.
Han Du's raised hand suddenly waved down, "Fire!"
"Boom! Boom! Boom!
..."
"It's the sound of cannons. Is this the Ming army?" Hearing the sound of cannons, Ugqiha Shiha instantly understood where these men and horses came from. Only the Ming army used a large number of firearms, and the firearms they equipped were also the best and most powerful.
But what puzzled Ugqi Hashha was, where did the Ming army get so many cavalry? However, some of the cavalrymen did not look like Ming people at all, but on the contrary, they looked like Meng Yuan people.
Another point, where did this Ming army come from? Wala had always been wary of the Ming Dynasty. He had placed a lot of spies at the border. Logically speaking, if so many Ming troops came to the grassland, he would definitely know about it.
But now he has not received any news, but the Ming Army is here.
Knowing that it was the Ming army and that there were cannons, Ugqiha Shiha naturally would not let people die in vain and immediately withdrew his troops.
Xu Chengfei and Azashili took the opportunity to get involved and took advantage of them. When they couldn't take advantage anymore, they reluctantly went back.
The reason why Azashili was so proactive was because Han Du distributed rewards to them equally. This time Han Du also said directly that whoever captured it would belong to him. Of course Azashili would not miss such a good opportunity to make a fortune.
Both sides temporarily withdraw their troops.
Han Du set up camp on the hillside and confronted the Wala people.
After a brief rest for the night, both sides began to conduct tentative attacks the next day.
This happened for several days in a row, and he also found out the other party's details.
Inside the commander's tent, Azashili said first: "Master Marquis, there are at least 200,000 people in the Wara tribe across the way. I'm afraid it won't be easy for us to eat them. Moreover, I also saw the golden tent. Come from the other side. It should be King Wala."
"King Wala?" Han Du glanced at Azashili with a strange expression.
The title of king will never be granted randomly no matter where it is.
Azashi nodded, "Wala King Ugeqi Hashiha."
