Xin Ai's camp was not fully prepared for a sneak attack, but it could not be said to be unprepared either. His main troops have indeed gathered near the old camp, but the reason for their gathering is not to prepare for a sneak attack, but to be able to organize the army to fight as soon as possible after Tumen Khan advances westward, and fight with Tumen Khan. To Guihua City.
According to Xin Ai's original idea, Han Naji was a young boy with little battle experience. Although he was almost thirty years old now, no experience meant no experience. Once he saw that he had the help of Tumen Khan, he would be able to destroy everything. If the emperor takes over the naturalized royal court, he will definitely panic and probably surrender.
In fact, Xin Ai doesn't want to fight Han Naji's Western Post. Once the Western Post is strong and fights head-on, even with the help of Tumen, his losses will not be too small, and if the losses are too large, he will Influence the right to speak after becoming the Great Khan in the future. Secondly, if Xishao's own strength suffers a too big blow, it will also lead to a decline in Tumote's overall strength. When facing Tumen Khan in the future, he will not have the confidence to speak.
In the final analysis, he borrowed Tumen Khan's soldiers just to regain the throne of the Great Khan, not to completely lose Tumut's own family fortune.
What's more, if you beat Han Naji too hard, you have to worry about Ming Ren's reaction. Xin Ai is the least sure about this. He doesn't know what decision Ming Ting will make. The Ming court was furious and stopped trading, which would cause serious trouble.
Although Xin Ai was unwilling to admit it, he still knew in his heart that the mutual market had now become a lifeline for Tumut. As long as this line was cut off by the Ming Dynasty, Tumut would be disabled.
Therefore, since Burihatu went to Chahanhot, Xin Ai has been in a kind of tension that seems to be absent, and he didn't even sleep well.
He got up early today and has been waiting for news from Chahanhot in the camp. At the same time, he has been paying attention to the rain. When the spring rain just stopped, he ordered the people below to arrange scouting horses to check around.
However, compared to his caution, Borha Rabbit, who was in charge of today's sentinel mission, obviously didn't take it seriously. He arranged one scout horse in each of the four directions, southeast and northwest, and that was all.
However, fools are blessed. Even though there were so few sentinels, Turigen couldn't resist Turigen's good luck. Not long after he went out, he ran into Han Naji and Chaterji's army.
Xin Ai may have been wary of being a soldier for a lifetime. He was sitting in the tent warming himself by the fire, but suddenly he stood up in annoyance. He grabbed the black fur cloaks on the hanger next to him and put them on his back. He ordered his left and right: "Come with me." Prepare your horse."
The female slave in the tent responded respectfully, and then asked: "Do you want to inform all Taiji?"
"Call Bu Ri...forget it, call Namur." Xin Ai originally planned to call Bu Ri Hatu, because he subconsciously wanted to have a good discussion with Bu Ri Hatu on how to deal with the next situation. , but remembered that Burihatu was far away in Chahar, so he had to change his mind and let Namur take his place.
Although Namur is not as smart as Burihatu, he is still second only to Burihatu among his sons.
Xin Ai's beloved horse was brought over, and he felt better. He got close to the horse for a while, and then Namur rode over and called from a distance: "Abu, did you call me?"
Xin Ai got on his horse and just had time to say, "Come with me for a walk," then his eyes narrowed and stared at the west, as if he was searching for something.
Namur followed Xin Ai's gaze and saw nothing at first. He subconsciously squinted his eyes and took a closer look, only to find a thin rider running towards the old camp, patting his horse.
"What a skinny monkey boy. This should be the boy called Turigen who is a detective under Borha Rabbit..." Namur said with narrowed eyes.
The face of Xin Ai next to him changed, and he suddenly shouted: "The enemy is attacking! Blow the trumpet immediately! Gather the troops west of the old camp!"
Namur was startled and said hurriedly: "I'm not sure yet..."
"Idiot!" Xin Ai whipped Namul with his backhand and cursed: "If it weren't for the enemy attack, how could he run like this!"
Namur shuddered in pain, but the scolding woke him up.
Yes, if there hadn't been an enemy attack and this kid ran like this without any effort, wouldn't he be afraid of being beaten up by the Borha Rabbit when he came back? Although he is still far away, you can still see him whipping the horse's butt constantly. This guy is one of the best riders in the tribe. If it weren't for a life-threatening situation, would he have reacted like this?
Namul felt a sense of fear in his heart and shouted loudly: "Send the order, pass Huang Taiji's order. All the warriors must gather in the west of the camp immediately. Those who don't come after three drums will be killed! - What are you doing standing still? Blow the trumpets and drums!"
Xin Ai Huang Taiji got off his horse and ran straight to the tent, shouting: "Bring the armor, scimitar and horse bow, quickly!"
He had just planned to go out and relax, but he was not prepared for any battle. Although the situation was urgent, no matter how urgent it was, he had to prepare his armor and weapons, otherwise would he go out and die? Or should we not fight at all and just run for our lives?
He is the one who is about to become Chechen Khan, how can he just run for his life! What's more, we don't even know who the enemy is now. If we turn around and run away, even if Tumen Khan arrives in a few days, he probably won't take him seriously.
After all, years of war experience are not given in vain. Even the female slaves under his command, although nervous at this time, did exactly what they had to do. They quickly completed the armor for him and handed him his scimitar. He tied it around his waist and hung his horse's bow, quiver and other items properly on both sides of the horse's hips.
Xin Ai didn't even answer. He walked back to the war horse, put his foot in the stirrup, got on his horse, and led the gathered soldiers straight to the west of the camp.
When Tu Rigen was running towards the old camp, he saw the old camp suddenly moving from a distance. Although for some reason, he was still a little relieved and secretly thinking: Could there be other detectives who got the news earlier than me? And came back to report it? That would be bad, Nisgbarz's ass was almost beaten by me, I wouldn't be beaten to death by Borha Tutaiji, right?
Thinking about it, he moved faster. Turigen clamped the horse's belly with his legs, lowered his body, and rushed toward the old camp like a bolt of lightning.
Xin Ai's troops gathered together at a very good speed. At this time, as soon as the drums were sounded, three or four thousand cavalry had gathered in the west of the camp. They were looking for generals and organizing the troops.
Xin Ai Huang Taiji was dressed in military uniform, riding on a horse, looking coldly at Turigen who was running towards him, but he did not take the initiative to speak.
Turigen started to slow down slightly when he was about a hundred steps away from Xin Ai and others. When he was about ten steps away, he pulled the reins, and Nisgeba stood up with his front hooves in the air, almost standing upright, and stopped.
Although everyone knew that the situation was urgent, they couldn't help but cheer when they saw this scene - the action itself is not difficult, but the difficulty is that the distance is so accurate. This not only requires the knight's superb riding skills, but also requires him to be well aware of the capabilities, fatigue, and other aspects of the horse under his crotch. It is obvious that Turigen's first place in the horse racing conference is absolutely deserved.
But Turigen did not show off his equestrian skills on purpose. He just chose the fastest way to move and stop in desperation. Therefore, he did not respond to these compliments at all. Instead, he directly clasped his fists at Xin Ai Huang Taiji and shouted loudly: "Huang Taiji, Xi There are at least 40,000 cavalry from the Dachengtaiji tribe coming over, and the vanguard general is Tottoqataiji!"
Chang Xin Ai was already mentally prepared at this moment, but she still had to tremble slightly when she heard this.
At least 40,000 cavalry?
Okay, okay, Naji, I underestimated you. In order to deal with me, you actually sent out the entire Western Post?
