Arutai did not blame Alublin for his failure.
The Ming army walked out of the vast sea in a shorter period of time than expected, which really surprised the Tatar senior officials, but this did not affect the implementation of the entire plan, it just brought the plan forward.
Arutai analyzed the current situation and spoke eloquently to his generals: "The Ming army has traveled nearly two thousand miles across the vast sea. They are exhausted, and we have been recuperating. This is just waiting for work. The Ming army will inevitably suffer heavy losses if it marches forcefully. Young sergeant, how much morale can be left? We have recharged our batteries and our morale is high. How can this battle be invincible?"
"Although Alublin lost some men, we still have 80,000 people, all of whom are good horsemen and archers in the tribe. As long as we charge bravely, we can divide the Ming army into several pieces, use cavalry to fight infantry, and win a hundred battles. A hundred victories. Now, all officers and men, be determined to win and prepare for the next decisive battle!"
In fact, Arutai didn't need to say these words. It was just a small loss of a few hundred people, so it was nothing.
However, Arutai stepped forward to boost morale and stabilize the morale of the military. This just showed that Arutai had hidden uneasiness deep in his heart.
Arutai has complicated emotions towards the Ming army. On the one hand, he is eager to take this opportunity to eliminate the main force of the Ming army in one fell swoop, and send his troops south to rebuild the Yuan Empire! On the one hand, there is a deep fear of the Ming army.
Yes, it's fear.
I think back to the sixth year of Jianwen, when the snow was falling under the Tianshan Mountains, Timur led all his elites. His cavalry team was unparalleled in the world, with few opponents for tens of thousands of miles!
But unfortunately, Timur not only lost, but also died in the hands of the Ming army!
Regardless of whether Timur died in the hands of his grandson or the Ming Dynasty, the truth is not important. What is important is that all the cavalry that Timur was proud of was lost!
But that was five years ago.
Five years ago, Zhu Di was able to kill Timur, but five years later, Zhu Di can't kill himself?
The 80,000 Tatar cavalry are no match for Timur's 150,000 elites!
Besides, in the past five years, the Ming Dynasty's national power has been booming, and I heard that firearms have begun to spread throughout the army. The military parade held at the beginning of last year shocked countless people, and even Wala was afraid of it.
This plan to conquer the Ming Dynasty not only did not become a conspiracy to weaken the Ming Dynasty, nor did it stage a good show of a pack of wolves hunting tigers, but it became proof that the Ming Dynasty was ferocious, its generals were ferocious, and its sergeants were ferocious!
Daming not only defeated his enemies, but also destroyed them physically. Wu Liangha was even worse, even his roots were wiped out, and it is said that not a single doll was left.
Arutai doesn't know what the fate of Tatar will be if he fails!
Will not fail, will never fail!
Arutai believes that the cavalry can definitely restrain firearms, and he is not unprepared!
Let the war begin!
Alutai issued the order, and the leader was still Alublin, who was responsible for harassing the Ming army. If the Ming army came to fight, it would run away, and if the Ming army did not come to fight, it would harass.
Zhu Di knew very well that this was a Tatar bait, so he just arranged for the Iron Eagle Cavalry to guard the periphery to prevent it from affecting the rest of the army.
It's just that Zhu Di underestimated Arutai.
On the second day and night when the Ming army was resting, Alublin's troops suddenly increased to 20,000, and they began to charge into the formation in the form of large cavalry.
Six thousand Iron Eagle Cavalry clashed with it and blocked Alublin's attack. However, they also underestimated the opponent's strength, resulting in the loss of more than 300 Iron Eagle Cavalry sergeants.
When Zhu Di came in person with his troops, Alublin had already led his men to retreat.
Xu Huizu's heart bleeds as he looked at the shot Iron Eagle Cavalry sergeant. Training a cavalry requires more than three times more resources than infantry every year.
Ping An's face was gloomy: "The Tatars are eager to test our reality and want to lure us into taking the initiative. It seems that they have already laid a trap."
Zhu Di knew that the army could not rest for a long time.
Although they have walked out of the vast sea, the logistics of the army have not completely followed, which means that the battle must be ended as soon as possible. If not, they have to ask Arutai and Benyasili for some beef and mutton.
Tie Xuan was cautious and reminded: "Arutai is a sinister and cunning person. Over the years, he has been capricious and killed
He killed many people, but was able to control the entire Tatar tribe in the end, which shows that he still has some ability. Since he actively seeks to fight and leads us there, it means that he must be prepared. The general must be careful when marching. "
Zhu Di understood that after receiving that no trace of Yuan Yue's army was found around the scouts and no news about Yuan Yue's army, he ordered the sergeants to go out of the vast sea.
But this time, Zhu Di withdrew the Iron Eagle Cavalry, placed the cavalry in the middle army, and chose to surround it with firecrackers and crossbow soldiers. The army formed a four-mile radius and marched slowly.
Arublin and his cavalry also wanted to harass the Ming army, but this time they were hit by a volley of crossbows and fire muskets before the bows and arrows could be thrown out, and they fled in confusion.
The army followed the direction in which Alublin retreated, approaching Hulan and Huwenwen step by step, and walked into the trap arranged by Alutai step by step.
When the Ming army entered a plain area, Zhu Di's face became obviously solemn.
Looking around, apart from the plains we came from, we were surrounded by mountains on three sides. Although these mountains were not very steep, there were many soldiers hidden behind the undulating curves!
This is a natural ambush place. Needless to say, this is the decisive battlefield chosen by Arutai!
The scouts, security bureaus and scouts pulled back.
A large number of Tatar troops appeared behind the mountains, which could no longer be dealt with by skirmishers and scouts.
Zhu Di waved his hand, and the loud trumpet sound began to blow. The huge military formation began to stabilize its position. The armies alternated positions in an orderly manner, completing the formation adjustment on the battlefield.
Zhou Dazhi directed the sergeants to carry out heavy iron bucket-like objects and install them on the shelves in front of the formation. Duan Yun greeted the Mo Dao team and stood in front of the Chinese army.
Tan Yuan and the Iron Eagle Cavalry sergeant act as the main force of the Chinese army, ready to ride out at any time.
Xu Kai, Qu Tao and others were busy setting up the Tiger Crouching Cannon. The soft soil was covered with wooden boards, and they dug deep with iron drills. Groups of sergeants carried out the gunpowder shells they carried on their backs.
The commander's order is, don't be afraid of running out of gunpowder bombs, as long as the orders don't stop, just throw the gunpowder bombs.
After throwing it away, it's time to clean up the battlefield.
This time the army marched across the vast sea, it did not carry a large number of heavy divine machine cannons, but it carried more than 5,600 light divine machine cannons. The army carrying this divine machine cannon was the elite of the Ming Dynasty: the cavalry artillery battalion. .
The Ming army was preparing intensively, and the Tatars were not idle either. Their knives had been sharpened and the wine had been heated, and they were waiting to destroy Zhu Di's army and hold a grand bonfire party.
Arutai took Benyashili and appeared on the hillside. Looking at the Ming army camp in the distance, he confidently said to Benyashili: "When we rebuild the Yuan Empire, your name will be alongside that of Genghis Khan." .”
