All Tai Ji have agreed, this is indeed the truth. The Alxa people and the Tumut people are adjacent to each other from the east to the west, but there has been no war in history. The relationship between the two parties is very good.
Doluo Tuman Taiji said: "I agree with Huntaiji's proposal. Please bring out the great banner (reading) of General Shalik. We will elect a Jinong here."
Pullike is also called Pullike, Chuluke, Zhuoliketunoyin, and Namudai Chechenhan. The eldest son of Qiqingha, the lord of ten thousand households in Tumote, Mongolia in the late Northern Yuan Dynasty. The eldest grandson of Alatan Khan, the third generation King of Shunyi. His banner was the royal flag passed down from generation to generation during King Shunyi's expedition.
King Shunyi died, and the only prince fled to the Junggar tribe. Recently, news came that he had died of illness in Yinli. However, Dasa Huangtaiji was born as a concubine from a side branch, and her biological mother's status was not good. I'm afraid it would be difficult to convince the public by directly claiming to be sweating. Therefore, Doluo Tuman Taiji proposed that the election should be for Jinong.
Jinong is the leader of the tribal alliance, equivalent to the deputy king or little king.
It seems more appropriate from all aspects to consider adding a Jinong.
And judging from the current situation, the Tumuts intervened in Yang Fan's attack on Haraqin and suffered heavy losses. They originally had 50,000 elite soldiers, which was also the capital of the Shunyi King's line to challenge the Chahar people. As a result, last year's Battle of Zhaocheng They lost tens of thousands of people, and this time they lost tens of thousands of people again in Toronto.
Now that we can't even gather 30,000 elite soldiers, do we still have the honor to call ourselves the king of Shunyi? Therefore, Huang Taiji himself wouldn't dare to call himself the king. The tribesmen of various Taiji tribes were annexed by Ansanxi and fled to Guihua City with their troops. At present, after supplementation, there are only about 2,000 people in each Taiji.
Daza's headquarters was in Linhe City and had not suffered any losses. He still had five thousand elite soldiers. If he hadn't been the most powerful at this time, he wouldn't have the guts to take the lead.
The Taijis all agreed. Soon Zhali Ke Dahu was invited in. After all Taiji paid homage to the big banner, the election began. At this time, only Dasa was the strongest. The Mongols respected the strong, and Dasa was indeed of golden blood. The result is not in suspense. Dasa Huang Taiji appointed Tumote Jinong as his new leader.
Yang Fan and Zhang Shize led ten regiments to the north bank through the pontoon bridge. They lined up outside the five bridgeheads, preparing to meet the Mongol army.
Guihua City is not big, only 250 meters square. On the left is the north-south Xiaohei River, which is a tributary of the Dahei River. There are only four kilometers from the south of the city to the east-west Dahei River. Now Yang Fan's military town seems to be less than three kilometers away from Guihua City.
From this morning, after the Ming army began to cross the Dahei River, the Mongols who had camped around Guihua City began to dismantle their tents and retreat backwards. A large open space in the south of Guihua City was vacated.
At about nine o'clock in the morning, the Mongols moved out. A large number of cavalry gathered in the north, and the Yanmen came out to restrain the team and adjust their formation.
There were ten regiments crossing the river from the Beijing camp, and Yang Fan left five regiments to guard the bridgehead. as a barrier to retreat. After all, the Beijing camp has not experienced actual combat. If it loses, it can still return to the main camp in Hebei. The defenses in the north of the bridge made of steel pipe scaffolding and tiled steel plates plus arrow towers are still very strong.
Yang Fan was determined to send troops to Mongolia this time. When infantry fights cavalry, they must rely on solid fortifications. In the past, the Ming army relied on chariot camps. Now Yang Fan relies on steel pipe scaffolding, which can quickly build a steel city on the grassland, and is very easy to disassemble and assemble. Also easy to transport in a caravan.
Yang Fan was like a snail carrying a castle on his back, crawling on the grassland. If he could win, he would fight in the field. If he couldn't, it would turn into a siege. The level of Mongolian siege has long been abandoned. It's simply not worth mentioning.
Five regiments, each with 3,600 men, formed five clusters. Yang Fan is in the central cluster. Command the three groups in the middle. Zhang Shize went to the left wing to command a regiment. Jiang Bingzhong went to the right wing to command a regiment.
Daza stood on the archery tower at the south gate of Guihua City, looking at the Ming army in the distance. I saw that there were only about 18,000 Ming troops out in battle. The number is less than half that of the Mongols. Suddenly I felt relieved. He knew that 80,000 people came to the Ming army's Beijing camp. There are still 100,000 civilians. It is said that the civil servants are all recruited from militia groups from various places, and they have some fighting strength.
However, these Ming troops looked very elite, and they wore uniform style plate armor. Under the strong sunshine on the plateau, it reflects the sun like a mirror.
Dasa had never seen these Jiawei, nor had the Taijis around him seen them. These armor stomachs are made of large and large decks, which are different from the chain armor, mountain armor, and fish scale armor of the previous Ming army. The soldiers of the Ming army all wore mandarin duck war jackets. And everyone in these Beijing camps has the same stomach. Just the color is different.
It seems that different colors should distinguish the official rank. The helmets they wear are also different from the phoenix-winged helmets and eight-petal iron helmets of the Ming Dynasty. Instead, it was a pointed-beaked helmet made of the same metal as the plate armor, which was equally shining. There were only two narrow slits for the eyes. There are small holes on the pointed mouth, which are probably reserved for breathing.
The armor skirt of these armor stomachs only reaches the knees, and the front of the calf below is a greaves buckled with a belt, only the front side has it.
The Mongols were short of iron and had very few chain armors. This time they were dumbfounded when they saw that all members of the Jingying camp were equipped with plate armor so extravagantly. I sighed in my heart that the Ming Emperor was really rich.
At this time, they saw that the Ming Dynasty's military formation was not a horizontal row, but a triangular wedge formation. Each small formation is composed of ten people.
Three shield swordsmen, in the shape of a triangle in front. Four pikemen were in the gap in the middle of the three shields, and on both sides of the shield. Behind them is a small flag holding a three-eyed gun, and two crossbowmen holding steel crossbows.
Dacheng Taiji looked at it carefully for a while and said: "Is it because my eyes are presbyopic? This time is different from the one in Duolun. They did not dig a small hole in front of the formation to break the horse's legs, nor did they arrange the kind of thorns wire network.”
When several Taiji heard this, they immediately looked over. In last year's battle in Duolun, they suffered big losses in front of small pits and barbed wire fences. See it clearly this time.
Bayot Taiji said in surprise: "That's right, they didn't arrange these, that's great. This time we can let the cavalry gallop freely. Our warriors can kill them without leaving any piece of armor behind. Hahaha."
Last time in Toronto, they played too hard. I can't use my strength to do it.
Talat Taiji said excitedly: "The Immortal God bless us, let them see the power of cavalry this time. If infantry fights cavalry, it is impossible to win."
Dasa Jinong also stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Have the heads of the Han people been stepped on by camels this time? They have such good things and tactics and they gave up. This time it is our turn to defeat them. Dear Taiji, who of you? I am willing to lead troops to defeat them.”
"I'm willing to go" "I'm willing to go too"
For a time, the Taijis were gearing up and asking for a fight.
