Let Hedan Bartel get it right!
Huang Yi had two preparations: a red heart. He pinned his hopes on Jiannu and the Karaqin Tatars to take back his family, property, and livestock, and start fighting on the battlefield he had designed.
Also considering that the enemy would not come, the decision was made to attack Hedanbaat'er's Ministry.
So he ordered five hundred elite armored knights to search in the direction of Hedanbaatar's camp.
Karatu made it clear that Jiannu did not have more than 300 men and horses, while Haraqin's men should be more than 3,000.
Huang Yi believed that the selected 500 armored cavalry must have better riding skills than Jiannu. If they beat 300 with 500, they would be completely defeated.
The Hedanbaatar tribe that was facing a confrontation was suddenly joined by five hundred cavalry, which inevitably boosted their morale and passion, and unleashed a powerful fighting force.
The allied forces, which were originally desperate, discovered that Hedanbaatar's troops had arrived with reinforcements, which would definitely affect their morale and shake their confidence in breaking into the camp and seizing food.
One can conclude that Huang Yi arrived with 500 cavalry, and Hedanbaatar had a great chance of turning defeat into victory.
Even if they can't turn defeat into victory, as long as they remain invincible and prevent the enemy from grabbing cattle, sheep and food, what will Jiannu and the Karaqin Tatars do next?
When fighting on the vast prairie, the hardest thing is to find the enemy, and the saddest thing is to be discovered by the enemy that you know nothing about it.
During the march, Huang Yi still took the lead, still using the method of climbing up the mountain and looking into the distance with a telescope to look for the enemy.
Huang Yi has done this job too many times, and his subordinates are also familiar with each other, and their cooperation is impeccable.
Whenever Huang Yi climbed up to observe, the enemies within one or twenty miles ahead had nowhere to hide.
Oh no! It's not necessarily the enemy, it's also possible that they discovered scattered herder families.
Huang Yi, Karitu, Bi Daxi, Huxiaochuan, Langgeha, Gubul, etc. are all good horses to ride, and they also have the bonus of being able to discover the enemy first.
The remnants of the Karaqin tribe, who were pursued, intercepted, scouted, and fled, were in no way disadvantageous.
The eighteen Mongolian knights who first followed Huang Yi, such as Huxiaochuan, Huxiao Valley, Chalahe, Gerda, Yamoboli, Exunzhaqin, Dumbu, etc., have now settled in the base city. .
Huxiaochuan and Huxiaogu have been able to write three hundred Chinese characters silently, and have become the commander-in-chief, equivalent to the Mongolian centurion. The others can only serve as deputy commander-in-chief and small banner due to problems with their Chinese proficiency.
To produce political power from the barrel of a gun, we must firmly grasp the barrel of the gun. The grassroots construction of the army is very important, so Huang Yi's army is different from the Ming army.
A general banner with fifty regular soldiers does not have only one general flag officer like the Ming army establishment. There are also two deputy general banner officers in the base establishment.
One of the deputy generals was responsible for ideological education and teaching the soldiers reading, literacy and arithmetic.
Speaking Chinese and writing Chinese characters are linked to whether you can be promoted. If you are still illiterate, no matter how brave you are, your official position will be at the end of the deputy general banner.
If you want to go further, you have to pass the test of dictating new characters and pass the threshold of mastering 300 Chinese characters.
The regular soldiers in the base area were paid completely in accordance with the regulations of the Ming army camp, and no drifting was allowed. The original grain and discounted silver were distributed to each soldier according to actual conditions.
The food and money the cavalry received every month was enough to feed a family of five.
Moreover, all cavalry families graze on the pastures closest to the base area, and all own cattle and sheep.
Therefore, any herdsmen family with children who become regular soldiers must be relatively wealthy families.
The Mongolian cavalry among the main soldiers in the base area all come from the lowest level without exception.
Some of them are seriously injured people who saved their lives because of Huang Yi's treatment, some are prisoners of war who have been enslaved, and some are poor households who are discriminated against in the original tribe, and most of them have no women.
After swearing allegiance to Huang Yi, they all married wives, and some even married more than one.
The small days are like sesame seeds blooming steadily.
In addition, Huang Yi ate, lived and shared joys and sorrows with the soldiers every time he fought. The Mongolian knights respected him from the bottom of his heart, so Huang Yi was able to use his fingers like an arm.
Active and eager warriors are full of fighting enthusiasm.
Five hundred elite men and horses armed to the teeth can be as quiet as a virgin and as active as a rabbit.
Huang Yi led them in a siege and pursuit while approaching the winter camp of Hedan Bater tribe, but no one discovered them.
Oh no! They were discovered many times, but when enemy cavalry or herdsmen discovered Huang Yi's men and horses, they were already trying to catch a turtle in a jar.
Seven or eight enemy cavalry who resisted became dead, and most of the young and middle-aged men who were discovered became prisoners.
Huang Yi's team is now no longer 508 knights, but 1,016 horses.
Forty-six young men without armor or bows and arrows, wearing only sheepskin coats and holding Mongolian knives, were added. More than 170 war horses and pack horses were also added.
Not all of these people were captured Karaqin cavalry, thirty-six of them came from scattered herder families.
It is necessary to march quickly, and bringing the discovered Mongolian families will slow down the team and affect the marching speed.
If these Mongolian families are left alone, who can guarantee that none of them will go to inform Se Leng in exchange for rewards?
what to do?
The simplest way is of course one word "Kill!".
However, God has the virtue of good life, and Huang Yi cannot exist in the image of a murderous demon. He must establish a compassionate persona to save all sentient beings.
So he ordered the young and middle-aged herdsmen who were rounded up to get on their horses and take all the horses in the family to follow, leaving the family behind to continue their herding life.
He also told the herdsmen who were being held hostage that it would be easiest to kill them directly. The reason why he bothered to let them follow him was entirely out of good intentions and compassion.
Of course, Huang Yi's level of Mongolian was too low to explain clearly, so Zhang Dong explained Huang Yi's words in a dazzling way.
Those young and middle-aged people were very perceptive and felt that Zhang Dong's words were reasonable. They were no longer aggrieved that they had to leave their families, but were grateful to Huang Yi for not killing him.
They did not try to escape, but obediently helped to serve the horses and monitor the ten prisoners who had their armor, bows and arrows confiscated.
Seeing that he was getting closer to the winter camp of Hedanbaat'er tribe, Huang Yi became more cautious.
War requires suddenness.
Appear suddenly and raid the attacking enemy's back, getting twice the result with half the effort.
On the contrary, if the enemy discovers it in advance and concentrates its forces to surprise one's side, the losses will be immeasurable.
Therefore, Huang Yi became more careful the closer he got to the battlefield. He still personally served as the vanguard and led the eighteen warriors such as Huxiaogu, Karitu, Bi Daxi, etc. to the front of the team.
Three miles away from Huang Yi were the Seventy-two Cavalry led by Zhang Dong and Hu Xiaochuan. The main force was three miles behind Zhang Dong.
Under normal circumstances, Zhang Dong carries the unique mini gun, so Zhang Dong can use the scope to observe the distance and communicate with Huang Yi using the agreed sign language.
