Outside Miyun City, Lin Dan Khan's Mongolian cavalry have surrounded the entire city. He has been attacking for several days, but Miyun City is still unbreakable.
Lin Danhan launched more than ten fierce attacks, but unfortunately he was repelled by the Ming army before he even touched the city head. Lin Danhan saw it in his eyes and felt pain in his heart. The losses in attacking the city in this way were really too great.
But he had no way at all. He had no siege equipment, no artillery like the Ming army, and even the ladder was improvised. This simple ladder could not play much role at all. The Ming army pushed it with a long hook and sickle. It fell.
The fighting spirit and morale of the Mongolian cavalry had dropped severely. Since they went south to attack the Ming Dynasty, they had not won a single victory. Lin Danhan had no choice but to order a rest first when he saw that the morale of the army was so low.
"Great Khan, this battle cannot be delayed, otherwise we will be in danger. This is the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty's capital!"
Lin Danhan said listlessly:
"I don't know what I don't know. It's just that the warriors have begun to get tired from attacking the city one after another. The leaders of the various ministries don't want to rush forward, so they have to take a short rest so that I can think of how to break the city."
Tuolihai said sonorously and forcefully:
"Khan, from the slave's point of view, we have no choice. We don't have ladders or vehicles to cover us, so we can only attack with force!"
"If we want to break the city, the Great Khan cannot care about the gains and losses of one person or one horse. Otherwise, we may never be able to break the city. The Great Khan should give an order and order all the troops to attack together. Only in this way can we have the possibility of breaking the city!"
Tuolihai is right. It is simply a fantasy for the cavalry to break through a tightly defended city. However, if the cavalry must be used to attack the city, they should rush forward in one go and use their numerical advantage to create greater possibilities.
But Lin Danhan would not do this because he did not have the courage and ambition, which was also the reason why the leaders of various ministries were unwilling to fight.
Because he is always thinking about how to preserve his strength as much as possible. In the past few days, the siege of the city, to put it mildly, his direct army is just making soy sauce.
The leader of another tribe led his troops to charge into the battle, and his army followed behind. As soon as the front could not withstand any resistance and began to retreat, he immediately ordered the withdrawal of the troops, in the name of covering others.
Tuo Lihai also knew what kind of temper Lin Danhan was, so he could only sigh softly when he saw that he was silent.
"I report to the Great Khan that Bayar stirred up the morale of the army and said that he would not fight anymore and would lead the army back to the grassland!"
Lin Danhan became anxious when he heard this. It was okay. He immediately hit his horse and galloped towards the camp.
He burst into Bayar's camp angrily and said sternly:
"Bayar, you stupid coward, what do you want to do?"
When Bayar saw Lin Danhan scolding him as soon as he came in, he also said rudely:
"Who is the coward? Nearly half of the warriors of my tribe were killed and wounded. Even I suffered two arrow wounds. And you, you just blew the horn and gave orders from behind!"
Bayar has long been dissatisfied with Lin Dan Khan. In this attack on Miyun, his tribe has always been willing to be the vanguard, which also caused his tribe to suffer the greatest losses. He brought more than 8,000 people, but now only those who can lift the sword and mount the horse There are more than 5,000 people left.
On the other hand, Lin Dan Khan had probably suffered less than 500 casualties in the past few days. He had seen Lin Dan Khan clearly and had already made up his mind to return to the grassland.
Seeing that he dared to force himself hard, Lin Danhan suddenly became furious and said angrily:
"Bayar, you are getting more and more courageous. You actually dare to talk to Ben Khan like this. You ungrateful Shiba Inu, Ben Khan will make you receive the punishment you deserve."
Bayar sneered and said:
"Who are you trying to scare? Don't forget whose camp this is!"
"Somebody come!"
Bayar shouted loudly, and a dozen guards with swords rushed in from outside, while Lin Danhan came in alone.
When Tuolihai saw the movement outside, he immediately rushed in with his men, and the two sides met with each other!
Seeing this, Lin Danhan felt confident again and said with a sneer:
"Okay, Bayar, you have grown up, and you dare to threaten this Khan with a soldier's armor and a knife!"
Now that he had completely broken his skin, Bayar was not to be outdone and said:
"You are not worthy of being the Great Khan of Mongolia. You forced me to do this!"
The two men made such a big noise, which naturally alarmed the whole camp. The leaders of each department rushed over one after another. Seeing that they had already drawn their swords at each other, they immediately began to persuade them to make peace.
"Bayar, you are crazy. This is the Great Khan. Let your men put down their weapons and make amends with the Great Khan!"
Bayar is not a fool, he is not so easy to fool, he knows that he has no way out, as long as he surrenders, Lin Danhan will immediately use it to establish his power!
He is the successor of Khan, the leader of the Naiman tribe, not the cannon fodder of his lackey Lin Dan Khan!
Seeing that Bayar was determined, the leader of the Dorote tribe secretly made a gesture to his subordinates, hoping to subdue Bayar by force, but Bayar happened to see it.
Bayar shouted:
"Assemble the entire army!"
Bayar's shout made the situation more serious. The Mongols from Naiman's tribe had surrounded the place, and the leaders of various tribes began to become nervous.
Bayar held the saber tightly and said:
"I just want to lead my people back to the grassland, don't force me!"
Lin Danhan was also a little timid at this time. He had no choice but to do it. They were under the roof and the situation was extremely unfavorable to them. He was also afraid that Bayar would go crazy.
Seeing that they did not move, Bayar issued several orders, and the people of Naiman's tribe immediately started packing.
Seeing that the situation was irreversible, some leaders who were friendly with Bayar said helplessly:
"Bayar, even if you leave now, can you return to the grassland safely? What will your Naiman tribe do after returning to the grassland?"
"Thanks for the reminder, but what you should be worried about right now is yourselves!"
How could they not hear what Bayar meant? They also knew that there was no way out by following Lin Danhan, but they just didn't have the courage and strength.
Bayar had already made up his mind to lead his tribe to migrate when he returned to the grassland, away from the land of right and wrong in the Monan Grassland.
Bayar pointed at Lindan Khan and said:
"Order your army to make way for my tribe!"
"I have sent people back to the grassland to report the news. As long as I can't go back, my father will destroy your capital Chahanhot. If you are brave enough, come and chase him!"
After Bayar finished speaking, he led his tribe to the north, and Lin Danhan did not send anyone to pursue him. Not only because of the threat just now, he also did not want a civil war to break out at this time.
More importantly, his target is Emperor Ming. There is only this opportunity. If you miss it, you will never get it again. As for Bayar, after capturing Emperor Ming, there will be many opportunities to deal with it.
And Naiman's departure also reminded him that he couldn't drag it out any longer, otherwise who knows what will happen next.
Lin Danhan said to the leaders of various ministries:
"At dawn tomorrow, attack from all sides. We will never retreat until we break this city!"
"嗻!"
In order to calm people's hearts, Lin Danhan reluctantly said:
"The Chahar tribe is the vanguard!"
