Faced with Buck's inquiry, Lin Danhan's face turned gloomy again, but he still responded.
"The third option is to stick to Guihua City, but this is a dead end. The three miles around Guihua City can contain more than 100,000 of us?
Even if we can block it, how long can we hold on to hundreds of thousands of soldiers eating horse chews?
But Daijin is different. Although they also need supplies, they can transport them from various tribes.
To the east of Guihua City is the rolling Manhan Mountain. They can go to the mountain to cut wood, collect stones, and make trebuchets.
With so many troops in the city, if a big stone falls into Guihua City, three or five people may be injured.
If you use fire to attack and cause a fire, your death will be even worse. "
After listening to Lin Danhan's words, everyone looked gloomy.
They also understood that now they could only accept the high-priced supplies from Ming Dynasty.
"But... profusely, I can't swallow this breath. How dare little Da Ming..."
"At this juncture, you have to swallow even if you can't, unless you want us to be completely annihilated!
After Dajin retreats, our army will press directly to Datong Town, break through Datong Town, and rob and kill everyone to avenge today's shame! "
When Lin Danhan said this, his eyes were filled with fierceness.
I secretly have a cruel intention in my heart, Da Jin bullied me, you Da Ming dared to humiliate me, this revenge will be repaid tenfold.
"Great Khan, we actually need to pull the supplies ourselves. Datong City is more than five hundred miles away from here.
Carrying a large amount of supplies, traveling day and night, it will take at least four or five days to return, but Dajin is not far away from us! "
"It doesn't matter. Since we can't escape and Guihua City can't accommodate so many of us, let's fight to the death outside the city."
After Lin Danhan finished speaking, he looked at Qisenoyan: "Qisenoyan, immediately lead your troops to Manhan Mountain to cut down trees and collect stones. We will also make trebuchets.
And a lot of horse-rejecting stakes! Then we camped at Manhan Mountain, far away from us. "
"Kangkal Baihu and Seben, take your troops and immediately dig a hundred-foot-wide horse pit five miles outside Guihua City. I'll give you two days."
"Sanggar Village, you personally lead five thousand people to the Ming Dynasty to transport supplies, traveling day and night, and they must be sent back to Huihua City within six days!
This Khan will send five thousand heavy cavalry to meet you halfway in two days. "
"Buck, Muller, you two immediately mobilize your elite troops, each with one unit, and leave with Sanggar Village and Qisenoyan, and then go around behind Houjin to cut off their supplies."
"Delmu..."
…
"Everyone, we have only one purpose, to stop and slow down Daikin's attack. We will fight them to see who can outsmart the other.
If everything goes well, they will withdraw in ten days and a half, and we will win.
After we have established our footing in Guihua City, let’s settle all the old and new grudges together and let’s go! "
At this moment, Lin Danhan finally looked like the hero of the grassland and issued orders one after another.
After the people who received the order left, Lin Danhan looked at Hei Mingxiao and others who were eating and drinking on the horse-faced pier: "Bring them here!"
In just a few breaths, Hei Mingxiao was taken to the city gate tower.
Before Lin Danhan could speak, Hei Mingxiao said: "Should you let us go, or should you follow us to deliver supplies?"
"Hei Mingxiao, we can accept supplies from Ming Dynasty, but the quantity is not enough. We need at least 50,000 more weapons, especially bows and arrows, and 50,000 shi of food.
In addition, you should know that 10,000 stones of bean feed and sorghum will be added.
Without these fine materials, the physical strength and condition of the war horses will be difficult to adapt to the intense battlefield consumption. By then, even if we want to serve as guns for you, it will not be enough. "
"Being used as a gun for us?"
Hei Mingxiao sneered: "Do we need you to be our guns? You understand, we are helping you now, we are not begging you,
If you feel embarrassed, you don’t have to accept it. There is a saying in the Ming Dynasty, which says that buying and selling cannot be done without benevolence and righteousness.
How about you let us go and pretend that we have never been here? Do you like us as much as you like? "
Hei Mingxiao's words made everyone in Chahar feel excited, but before he could speak, Hei Mingxiao said again: "If Tumote hadn't invaded Datong and Xuanfu decades ago and besieged the capital, this would have been a shame for the Ming Dynasty. Your Majesty doesn't want to talk to them.
Otherwise, this batch of supplies is for Tumut, and your current casualties will increase by 30%.
If we don't come, do you think the tens of thousands of slave-building coalition forces can destroy you? Don't make yourself sound so wronged. "
Lin Danhan had veins pulsing on his forehead, and his eyes were full of murderous intent, but he still suppressed it: "What do you think of Ben Khan's request just now?"
"Don't worry about weapons. We are all short of them. You should know this!"
Hei Mingxiao directly rejected the weapon, and then thought about it: "The food can be increased to ten thousand dan, and some fine materials can also be given.
But we didn't prepare this in advance. After all, we have very few cavalry.
After arriving in Datong, we will see how much we have in stock and then decide how much to give you.
But the price will be increased by another 30%. If you agree, we will leave now. If you don’t agree, we will leave now. "
For the grain sold to Lin Danhan, Han Huang, Qin Liangyu, and Hei Yunlong negotiated and agreed that they could give them 20,000 shi, but now it has only been increased to 10,000 shi, which is within a controllable range.
Ten thousand stones are equivalent to one and a half million kilograms. Lin Danhan now has 110,000 sergeants.
Including some miscellaneous people, there are only 150,000 people, which translates to an average of ten kilograms per person, which is only three to five days of rations.
Lin Danhan took a deep look at Hei Mingxiao, then waved his hand,
Sanggarzhai, who was responsible for transporting supplies, pointed at Hei Mingxiao to the bottom of the city, and then walked towards the bottom of the city wall.
Half an hour later, under the leadership of several Ming Dynasty sergeants, Sanggar Village left Guihua City with a team of 5,000 sergeants and 2,000 trading horses, and headed straight for Datong City.
This is also Hei Mingxiao's request. Otherwise, with his hundreds of people, it would be almost impossible to take away two thousand leather horses.
Lin Danhan was naturally happy to do so. Their cavalry would be faster if they changed their cavalry.
Naturally, Hei Mingxiao was responsible for counting the rest of the supplies. There were twenty or thirty carts full of various precious furs and medicinal materials.
"Hutuktu Khan, welcome to Datong City as a guest, see you later!"
Hei Mingxiao rode on his horse, fisted Lin Danhan on the city wall, and then turned and left.
On top of the city tower, watching Hei Mingxiao walking away with twenty or thirty carts of supplies, Lin Danhan couldn't bear it any longer and pulled out a scimitar embedded with rare jade and chopped it down.
After a while, Lin Danhan calmed down, with murderous intent hidden in his eyes. Everyone knew that the Great Khan was completely angry.
Three days later, a large team of people sent by Chahar to transport supplies in Datong Town arrived five miles outside the Victory Fort.
The leading sergeant turned to look at the leader of Chahar: "We'll be there in about five miles. Please be honest on the rest of the way!"
When Sanggar Village was about to reprimand, the Ming sergeant said coldly: "Of course you don't have to listen, but if you die, don't blame me for not reminding you!"
