Ming army camp.
Yang Xuan called Zhu Gaosui to him.
"His Majesty personally led the cavalry in pursuit, but there was only news that Benya had disappeared, but Arutai was nowhere to be found."
"You hurry up and send people to find traces of Arutai."
"Yes." Zhu Gaosui said.
…
Benya lost his way and fled westward.
But before they reached Wala's territory, they met Zhu Di at the Onan River.
When people are really unlucky, drinking cold water will hurt their teeth.
When he heard that Zhu Di was leading his army to kill him, Benya was shocked.
Immediately ordered to speed up and run away.
But he brought too many things, which seriously slowed down his escape.
Yes, you are running for your life now. Are you carrying so many things with you, are you afraid that the enemy will not be able to catch up with you?
As long as you have soldiers in your hands, you can get back whatever you throw away sooner or later.
On the contrary, Zhu Di was very wise. He left behind the infantry with low mobility and the food, grass and baggage that slowed down the march.
Travel light and simple.
The distance between Zhu Di and Benya was getting closer and closer. When the latter decided to abandon his belongings, it was already too late.
Benya was distraught and could only watch helplessly as Zhu Di led the army into the formation.
Zhu Di was surrounded by imperial guards and the fierce general Zhu Gaoxu.
The Tatar cavalry could not hurt Zhu Di at all.
Zhu Quan on the other side went crazy.
He cut off the horses of the enemies one by one, and their bodies were stained with blood.
Benya was so scared that his liver and gallbladder split as he watched the Ming army kill their Tatar cavalry like they were chopping melons and vegetables.
"Arutai, you ****."
"If you hadn't provoked the Ming army, would we Tatars be in this situation?"
Ben Ya lost his temper and cursed Arutai, calling him a thief.
However, the scolding continues and the running away cannot stop.
Benya lost everything and finally ran out under the protection of a few soldiers.
Zhu Di did not pursue, Benya lost his troops and was in ruins.
He ordered the battlefield to be swept and the prisoners gathered.
Zhu Di was very happy to see that the gold and silver treasures that Benya had taken with him even after running for his life fell into his hands.
But he didn't forget Arutai either.
Let people seize the time to interrogate the prisoners they just captured.
Finally, I learned that Arutai actually ran towards Wu Liangha.
Zhu Di let the army rest for a while, then reorganized his troops and horses to pursue Arutai.
At the same time, he did not forget to send the prisoners and trophies back to the camp.
Soldiers are very fast, and it is obviously impossible for Zhu Di to move with these things.
…
Benya got his wish and fled to Oara.
I also met Mahamu, the leader of Wala.
I thought that as a member of the Yuan Dynasty clan, I would be warmly received by Wala.
But the result was different from what he thought.
Mahamu was indeed very enthusiastic and arranged a banquet to entertain them.
Seeing this, Benya was moved to tears.
Good man!
So he told him the truth about his current situation.
Knowing that Benya Shili only had a few soldiers around him now, Mahamu couldn't help but laugh.
"It's my turn to be rich and powerful!"
Benya was confused and puzzled.
Mahamu didn't explain and chopped down Benyashili cleanly.
The latter lost his head like this. I don't know if he regretted coming to Wala before he died.
Mahamu was very happy and sent an envoy again to bring Benya's head to see the Ming Emperor.
…
At this time, Yang Xuan had received news of Zhu Di's victory in the first battle.
He thought for a moment, then ordered to break camp and follow Zhu Di with his army.
Zhu Di and the others didn't bring much dry food, and it had been several days now, so they had to rush to meet them.
…
The words are divided into two parts.
Arutai's current situation is not good either. He went to seek refuge with Wu Liangha, but Wu Liangha ignored him at all and avoided him like the god of plague.
Wu Liangha: Don’t touch me!
Also, they had just sold the front leg to Zhu Di, and then took in Arutai as the back leg. What did Zhu Di think?
Will they use this excuse to deal with their Wu Liangha?
After hitting a wall in Wuliangha, Arutai had to hide from the Ming army in the vast grasslands and deserts.
Like a bereaved dog.
Thinking back on how high-spirited he was last year, but now...
Arutai regrets it!
At this time, he also realized how unwise his behavior against Ming was.
But regrets are of no use.
He must pay for what he did.
…
Zhu Di led his army to constantly search for Arutai, but the latter had no contact with the Ming army at all.
Seeing that the dry food he carried was about to be eaten up, Zhu Di could only order to stop searching.
Then he joined the large army led by Yang Xuan.
What Zhu Di didn't expect was that Yang Xuan also brought the envoy of Wala.
Zhu Di was confused, hadn't he seen it before?
What else are you doing?
The Wala messenger explained that they were here to give gifts.
After seeing Benya's missing head, Zhu Dina's depression about not finding Alutai dissipated a lot.
Overjoyed, he rewarded Wala with many gold and silver treasures.
Anyway, these things are the spoils of defeating Benya, and Zhu Di doesn't feel bad when he spends them.
In the next half month, Zhu Di continued to send people to search for Arutai.
Although Benya Shili has been defeated, Arutai is still there.
Zhu Di inherited Lao Zhu's style of doing things, either not doing it or doing it at all.
There are still many Tatar elites around Arutai. If they are not dealt with, Arutai will develop and grow again in a few years, thus threatening the Ming border.
But for half a month, Arutai was still not found.
The food and fodder carried by the army has now been almost consumed.
Zhu Di was unwilling to give up, but he had no choice but to issue an order to the class teacher.
It seems that this Northern Expedition is going to end like this.
But sometimes things can be so dramatic.
When the Ming army passed through Kuoluanhaizi, they happened to encounter Arutai.
Arutai was also confused!
I've already hid here, but you still haven't let me go. You're really bullying me.
Believe me or not... Surrender!
No one can defeat me before I surrender!
With an army of 500,000, Arutai has no courage to resist.
Zhu Di is an excellent general who has a very accurate grasp of the enemy's psychology.
He sent someone to send a message to Arutai.
It's not too late to surrender now, otherwise prepare to bear the wrath of half a million Ming troops!
This move suited Arutai very well, and he expressed his intention to surrender.
But I need to discuss it with my subordinates.
Arutai never expected that his subordinates would not agree to surrender.
This time Arutai was in trouble.
His status and military power all come from the support of these subordinates.
If these subordinates no longer support me, what else do I have?
He began to do ideological work for his subordinates.
Why is the Ming army too strong, we can't defeat it at all, confrontation is a dead end, and so on.
But no matter what Arutai said, his subordinates just refused to surrender.
Alu's head is as big as a bucket!
