Hutuktu Khan finally chose to see Zhang Hong.
After the defeat of the Chahar tribe, he did not have the confidence to refuse the request of the Tiger Character Banner, especially because there was a troop of Tiger Character Banner troops stationed outside the camp, which could threaten the Chahar tribe's camp at any time.
Hutuktu Khan was worried that the people from the Tiger Character Banner would take the opportunity to do something to him, so he took more than a hundred soldiers with him when he left. Then he followed the people from the Tiger Character Banner to see Zhang Hong.
As the person leading the way went, the sound of cannons became clearer and louder.
Khutuktu Khan realized that the place he was taking him to was the battlefield where the Tiger Flag and the Pseudo-Gold were fighting, and the expression on his face became nervous involuntarily.
"Don't worry, the Great Khan. With the presence of my Tiger-Character Banner army, the Great Khan's safety will be guaranteed." The man of the Tiger-Character Banner who led the way did not forget to comfort Hutuktu Khan.
After hearing this, Hutuktu Khan had a straight face and tried to look calm as he said: "As a great khan on the grassland, I have experienced numerous battles, big and small. How could I be frightened? It's better to hurry up and hurry up." Meet General Zhang earlier."
The people leading the way with the tiger character flag stopped talking and concentrated on their way.
The group of people walked on the edge of the battlefield and behind the Tiger Flag defense line. Apart from the sound of artillery and the sounds of fighting coming from the battlefield, safety could still be guaranteed.
As he got closer to the defense line and the battlefield, Khutuktu Khan's face became paler and his body became visibly tense.
"Go and tell Shi Zheng that Hutuktu Khan and Concubine Namuzhong have arrived."
As the messenger went to deliver the message, Hutuktu Khan and others were soon brought to a higher wooden platform where Zhang Hong was.
The wooden platform was temporarily built along with the defense line as a general platform.
Standing on the general's platform, you can clearly see the entire situation on the battlefield through a single-channel telescope. Similarly, as soon as the enemy approaches the defense line, you can also notice the general's platform high on the ground.
"Master Zheng, Hutuktu Khan and the concubine have arrived." The soldiers who brought Hutuktu Khan and Namu Zhong to the general platform reported to Zhang Hongtong on the general platform after bringing them over.
Hutuktu Khan, who appeared next to the general platform, looked at the man wearing armor and stomach on the general platform.
As the commander of the combat division, Zhang Hong was rarely needed to go into battle to kill enemies, so he did not wear bulky and heavy iron armor. He only wore a piece of cotton armor lined with silk to protect against arrows. Even if the arrow can't be stopped, it will be easier to take out the arrow stuck in the flesh with the silk cloth close to the body.
"General Zhang." Namuzhong saw Zhang Hong and took the lead in giving a Mongolian greeting.
Zhang Hong, who was standing on the general platform, seemed to have discovered Hutuktu Khan and Namu Zhong at this time, and said with a smile on his face: "It turns out that the Great Khan and the Concubine are here, please come up quickly."
Take the initiative to invite Hutuktu Khan and Namu Zhong to the stage.
Hutuktu Khan displayed his chart of profuse sweating and nodded slightly towards Zhang Hong.
Seeing this, Zhang Hong just smiled lightly.
Hutuktu Khan and Namu Zhong both came to the general platform. Zhang Hong reached out and took a monocular telescope from the guard beside him, handed it to Hutuktu Khan, and said: "The Great Khan uses it." You can see what’s going on on the battlefield.”
"Is this a telescope?" Khutuktu Khan hesitated for a moment, but still took the monocular telescope handed over by Zhang Hong into his own hands.
He had heard of this kind of thing, but he didn't take it seriously. In his eyes, telescopes were just playthings and he never took them seriously.
Zhang Hong made an invitation gesture to Hutuktu Khan, then took out another monocular and put it in front of his eyes, looking at the battlefield ahead.
Khutuktu Khan hesitated for a moment, then raised the monocular telescope in his hand and imitated Zhang Hong's example and put it in front of his eyes.
hiss!
After just one glance, he hurriedly took the monocular away from his eyes and sucked in a breath of cold air. He felt his hands and feet were numb and a chill was rising on his spine.
"What did the Great Khan see?" Namu Zhong asked curiously after seeing the changes in Hutuktu Khan's body.
Khutuktu Khan hesitated for a moment, and finally handed the monocular telescope to Namu Zhong and said, "You will know after taking a look at the battlefield with it."
Namuzhong took the monocular and looked curiously at the battlefield ahead.
Through the monocular telescope, she saw a cannonball hit the Mongolian soldier, directly breaking half of the Mongolian soldier's body. The cannonball continued, bounced up again after landing, and hit another Mongolian soldier behind.
The cannons fired a few times, taking away the lives of the Mongolian soldiers, leaving behind furrows of flesh and blood.
"This, this, you can see it so clearly." Namuzhong's Adam's apple twitched and he stammered.
Their status rarely goes to the battlefield in person, and even when they are on the battlefield, they are well protected by soldiers. The casualties on the battlefield are just a set of numbers to people like them.
Even if you see the casualties with your own eyes, most of them are caused by bows and arrows, swords and guns. It is rare for cannons to kill someone so tragically. Not only are the bones rarely left intact, but it is also common for blood and flesh to fly everywhere.
"This is already the second attack by the Mongolian soldiers under Huang Taiji." At some point, Zhang Hong put down the monocular in front of him and said to Hutuktu Khan and Namu Zhong.
Hutuktu Khan suppressed his nausea and took the monocular in Namuzhong's hand and looked at the battlefield again. He said, "Didn't the fake gold men take action?"
"No." Zhang Hong shook his head lightly, and then said, "Huang Taiji may have wanted to use his Mongolian soldiers to attack our defense line first, and then dispatch the slave soldiers and horses when a fighter opportunity appeared."
"A sinister villain is not worthy of being called a warrior." Khutuktu Khan snorted.
He doesn't have any good impressions of Huang Taiji and Fake Gold. Most of his current end is because of Huang Taiji and Fake Gold.
After hearing this, Zhang Hong shook his head and said: "On the battlefield, there is only victory or defeat. If I were a slave chief, I would do the same thing."
Hutuktu Khan's face turned ugly.
He was a great Mongol Khan, but he was refuted by a general of the Tiger Banner, which made him feel very uncomfortable.
However, he knew his current situation, and even though he was dissatisfied, he still resisted getting angry at Zhang Hong.
"The tens of thousands of Mongolian soldiers who came with Huang Taiji are almost as many as the troops and horses that the general can command. Can the general hold on?"
Compared to Khutuktu Khan's face-saving matters, Namuzhong was more concerned about the situation on the battlefield.
I know in my heart that if the Tiger-Character Banner is defeated, the fate of the Chahar Department will not be much better, or even worse than the Tiger-Character Banner.
After all, the foundation of the Tiger Flag is in the Ming Dynasty, and the foundation of the Chahar tribe is on the grassland.
"The tens of thousands of Mongolian soldiers do not pose much of a threat to the army. The real threat is the slave soldiers who have not yet taken action." Zhang Hong said, "The concubine can use a monocular to observe the situation on the battlefield. Don't look at the Mongolian soldiers. They are constantly attacking, but in fact they are conserving their strength. I guess the general commanding behind these Mongolian soldiers should be a Mongolian Taiji. If he were a general from the slave side, he would definitely pay more attention to threatening our defense line and would not worry about it. The casualties of the Mongolian soldiers.”
