Yu Qian was convinced.

However, the recruitment of soldiers from the nine sects could not be completed in an instant. The work started in the evening and it was not until dawn the next day that 60,000 soldiers were barely mobilized.

"Sir, this battle is of great importance. If something goes wrong, we need to call back immediately for reinforcements." Yu Qian said uneasily, "The capital must not suffer any loss."

"Don't worry, I know what's going on." Li Qing nodded.

Uncles and nephews Shi Heng and Shi Biao were impatient with waiting and urged: "Soldiers are very quick, Li Qipin, let's go quickly."

Li Qing nodded and smiled at Yu Qian: "Don't worry, nothing will happen."

"Well, sir, be careful." Yu Qian also smiled. With Li Qing here, he felt at ease.

"Grand Master, withdraw."

"Retreat, Grand Master."

All the tribal chiefs were talking at different angles.

Totto Polo looked at these people and felt miserable in his heart. Even his direct relatives were not optimistic about them, and he felt very depressed.

But after finally reaching this point, he didn't want to give up just like that.

With this retreat, all previous efforts were in vain.

"The last time, the last time." Totto Polo gritted his teeth and said, "If there is no progress this time, we will withdraw."

His eyes were red, like a gambler in a stud game, "This time, I will personally go into battle. Everyone should focus on attacking Xizhimen."

Hearing this, the faces of the generals froze.

With Totto Polo personally taking action, it would be difficult for them to cheat and cheat.

Totto Polo knew what these people were thinking and said calmly: "After this battle, no matter whether it is successful or not, I will not treat you badly. As for those who escaped from the battle, they will definitely be liquidated after they return."

The generals looked at each other and nodded helplessly.

"Okay, let the soldiers have a good meal. This is the last battle. There is no need to save anymore." Tuotuo Boluo looked at the red sun outside the tent, "We will set off in an hour. This battle must be won. "

He had no way out. In two battles, the Tatars suffered serious losses. If there was no further progress, it would be difficult for him to return to the grassland.

Wala is not a vegetarian!

"……yes."



An hour later, the Tatar soldiers were full of food and drink.

Tuttok Polo stood on the observation deck, preparing to say a few words to boost morale.

Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly saw in the far distance on the right, densely packed Ming troops, rushing towards him.

The distance is too far to see clearly, but a rough estimate is no less than 50,000.

Tuotuo Polo was shocked in his heart. Then, the scouts came and crawled to the observation tower. He said anxiously: "Grand Master, the Ming army is coming. There are 70,000 or 80,000 people. What should we do?"

"Seven to eighty thousand?" Tottok Polo was shocked, "Is it that many?"

Because he was too surprised, he made a loud voice, and all the generals under the observation tower, including some small bosses, heard him.

In an instant, their expressions changed wildly, and their already low morale suddenly disappeared.

Tuttok Polo realized something was wrong and asked again: "Are you sure?"

"Uh... almost." The scout said bravely, obviously not getting the point.

This time, it stirred up a hornet's nest.

"Retreat, Grand Master."

"Grand Master, withdraw."

Everyone quit. They came to capture the capital of the Ming Dynasty, not to fight against the Ming Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty had tens of thousands of people and millions of soldiers. No matter how brave they were, they were still nothing!

"Grand Master, the reinforcements from the Ming Dynasty have arrived, we must withdraw." All the generals said in unison, staring at him with burning eyes.

Totto Polo said unwillingly: "The Ming army will never come with so many reinforcements at once."

"Please retreat, Grand Master!" the generals urged again.

They don't care about this, they only know that it is completely impossible to capture the capital now, and they need to stop their losses as soon as possible.

Totto Polo paused for a moment, his face turning extremely ugly. He understood that he could no longer suppress the enemy and would either retreat honorably or be forced to retreat.

I'm really unwilling. If those bastards didn't run away and everyone worked together, they might not be able to take down the capital... Totto Polo was filled with grief and anger.

Sad and indignant, Totto Polo could not act arbitrarily. He could not do it and did not dare to do so.

Otherwise, these individuals will teach him how to behave every minute.

"...Oh, withdraw!"

"Withdraw, the Tatars withdraw." Shi Biao stood on the slope and danced excitedly when he saw the Tatars withdrawing.

"Stop yelling." Shi Heng patted his horse and stepped forward, giving him a big dick, "You're the only one who talks a lot. You're so fucking smart, aren't you?"

He lowered his voice and said: "We repelled the Tatars, not by ourselves."

"..." Li Qing was speechless.

Shi Biao seemed to be waking up from a dream and nodded hurriedly: "Yes, yes, uncle is thoughtful."óΠъ.oяG

"Um?"

"Sir, Chief Soldier." Shi Biao quickly changed his words: "Uncle... Chief Soldier, let's chase him, shall we?"

"Of course we have to chase you. The time has come to beat the drowned dog with a stick." Shi Heng snorted, "Damn, you suppressed me so hard before, I have to get my money back this time."

Li Qing frowned, and wanted to say that we should not pursue the poor bandits, but he thought that the Tatars were not at the end of their rope, and they would just let it go. They would definitely plunder the people on their way back, so he did not stop them.

Shi Heng knew that the person talking about this army was Li Qing, so he turned around and asked: "Li Qipin, what do you think?"

"You can chase them." Li Qing nodded, "But don't chase them violently. Just drive them out as soon as possible."

"Okay." Shi Heng grinned, "Biaozi, quickly call the cavalry to follow."

Among the 60,000 people, there were only 5,000 cavalry, and the rest were all infantry. Shuangshi's uncle and nephew rode in pursuit, and Li Qing led the infantry to follow in case the Tatars were forced to fight back.

It was okay at first, with the infantry marching in a hurry and barely able to ensure that the Tatar counterattack support was in place, but after a day, no one could be seen at all.

After hastily mobilizing troops, he only brought two days of military supplies, so Li Qing had to pause and let the army return to the capital.

At this point, the crisis in the capital was resolved.

However, uncles and nephews Shi Heng and Shi Biao were too reckless. Li Qing was afraid that they would lead five thousand cavalry to fight against the Tatars. After the army retreated, he chased after them.

The Ming army chased with all their lives, while the Tatars ran away with all their lives.

Five thousand people chased nearly fifty thousand, which was a long time to live, but the Tatars really didn't fight back.

They didn't dare to gamble anymore. God knew if turning around and fighting back would get them deeper and deeper. Moreover, no one wanted to lose any more. The leaders of each department were trying to preserve their strength.

After all, there is no benefit to them in defeating the five thousand Ming army, but if they are bitten and dragged to the follow-up troops of the Ming army, the whole army will be annihilated.

There is a serious imbalance between effort and reward, and no one is willing to take risks.

Shi Heng and Shi Biao were on the move. The Tatars were like bereaved dogs, making them completely swollen. The uncle and nephew were picking up the materials and supplies that the Tatar army had discarded at the end, and they were chasing after them.

Five thousand were defeated and 50,000 were forced to flee. What a great achievement!

The two men have already figured out how to brag.

A bright future is in front of them, can they not work hard?

After chasing after each other, the soldiers of the Ming army also came forward. They had the illusion that the Tatars were really weak!

Shi Heng's uncle and nephew ate meat, but they could still drink soup, so... they chased after him.

They ran away, they chased, and the dust and smoke billowed all the way.

"You bullied me too much...!" Tuotuo Polo saw that the Ming army was determined to hold on, and his long-suppressed anger completely exploded. He stopped running and was ready to show off to the Ming army.

When it comes to cavalry combat alone, the Tatars are superior to the Ming army. After all, this is the only thing they have.

"Assemble!" Totto Polo shouted in a deep voice, and then... all the Tatar tribes ran away, and no one paid any attention to him.

"Gather for me."

"We're about to catch up." Shi Biao became more energetic, "Uncle, I'll go first."

Regardless of whether Shi Heng agreed or not, Shi Biao screamed and rushed up.

"You bastard, just be angry with me." Shi Heng cursed and rushed up with a howl.

A quarter of an hour later, the two sides were two miles away.

Totto Polo hastily organized three thousand people, but he was not worried. He had already sent his soldiers to shake people back.

If you don't steam the steamed buns to gain some kudos, you have to find your place no matter what you do today... He was really angry.

Soon, the two armies faced each other.

Shi Biao laughed and said, "Tatar boy, why don't you run away?"

Totto Polo could understand and speak Chinese. He sneered and said: "There is an old saying among the Han people - don't chase after poor enemies; this time I will make you pay the price."

"You also know that you are a bandit?" Shi Biao didn't care: There is no one behind him, but Li Qipin is on the way leading 50,000 to several thousand people.

Seeing that Tuotuo Polo was extraordinary, Shi Heng raised his sword and said forcefully: "If Shi doesn't kill an unknown person, who are you?"

"Oh, say my name, scare..."

"Kill!" Shi Biao shouted loudly, riding alone towards Totto Polo.

"You damn...!" Shi Heng was furious, but he didn't dare to ignore his nephew's life, "Kill me!"

Totto Polo was very sad and angry: Can you let me finish what I said?
