Demoness, Where Are You Fleeing To?

Chapter 744 Flags Like Clouds

On the eighth day of July, all the Mongol tribes on the west bank of the Arunhun River and Lake Belga in the north of the mountain moved into large numbers. Groups of Mongol knights picked up their bows and knives, mounted their horses, and headed towards the Arunhun River. March direction.

They gathered together like a river, and the darkness seemed like a surging black tide.

The Tatar and Oara tribes were originally panic-stricken, with low morale and a lot of resentment.

But when these endless Mongol warriors gathered on the west bank of the Aluhun River, their initially uneasy mood suddenly calmed down.

I haven’t seen this scene in the Mobei grassland for a long time.

Hundreds of thousands of Mongol warriors were like a vast ocean, their horses snorted and galloped freely, their scimitars and chainmails reflecting patches of cold light.

The Qianhu flag and Wanhu flag were raised high, one after another, with no end in sight.

Even the most pessimistic and timid person will feel ambitious and confident after seeing this scene.

This force should be indestructible and invincible

Those Jin people who invaded the grassland were just slaves under their iron hoof.

The Great Khan of Wala was in a state of complacency at first. He stood on the top of a hillside and looked at the groups of fully armed Mongol warriors marching below. He felt proud and ambitious in his chest.

At the same time, there was also a hint of impatience in Ye Xian's eyes.

The general Alazhiyuan next to him was explaining: "So our army's strategy is to cut off its arms first, and then break its trunk. The Han people's rune-flint rifles are indeed terrifying, just like the powerful crossbows of the Qin and Han Dynasties.

At that time, there were no such things as stirrups and horseshoes, so the Han general Li Ling marched across the grassland with 5,000 infantry troops. With powerful crossbows at his fingertips, no one in the grassland could defeat him. But in the end, this man was forced to surrender by the Huns because he ran out of ammunition and food. And as long as we can defeat their cavalry, sooner or later the Fenyang Prince of the Jin Dynasty will be reduced to Li Ling's situation, and at least we can force the Jin army back from the grassland. "

When Alazhiyuan said this, he pointed far away in the east direction with his reins: "Our army of 930,000 horsemen are all skilled in riding, and even warriors who are proficient in riding. Jin people are not like us in any way. Our opponent. So as long as we have enough food, as long as we cross the Aluhun River, no matter where the battlefield is, I, Mengwu, will definitely be able to defeat it!"

Da Siming listened carefully and nodded slightly.

She attaches great importance to the upcoming battle on the Mongol grassland, so after arriving this time, she did not hesitate to offend Choros Yexian's tiger power, but also questioned the opponent's tactics to understand whether the Mongol people really had a chance of winning this battle. ?

Da Siming never expected that the Mongols could fight Li Xuan and win. She only hoped that the Mongols could use the tactics of their ancestors to consume the national power of the Jin Dynasty and contain the elite soldiers of the Jin Dynasty on the grassland.

But this time, Wala Khan also wanted to make a desperate move.

Da Siming couldn't help but care, because at this time, there were fewer and fewer forces in the world that could contain the Jin people and the Fenyang County Prince...

The Mongol people in the grassland are the force that Da Siming relies on most. She invested millions of cattle and sheep, and also provided Ye Xian with bows, swords and armor that could arm 200,000 herdsmen.

If the Mongol people also suffered a failure, it would be another heavy blow to Jinque Tiangong.

However, Alazhiyuan's explanation made her heart beat, and she felt that it was quite feasible.

The black tide of Mongol cavalry and thousands of flags and banners also gave her a certain amount of confidence.

Hundreds of years ago, the Mongolian cavalry once swept across the world and was invincible in the world!

Now that the Great Khan of Wala, Choros Yesian, has gathered 930,000 prairie knights for a decisive battle with the Jin Dynasty, there should be no reason to fail.

However, Da Siming then looked at the White Tiger Palace Master Shi Tianze next to him with questioning eyes.

This was a famous general who fought in hundreds of battles during the Mongol era. He was familiar with Mongol warfare, and Da Siming firmly believed in this man's military ability.

Shi Tianze pondered for a moment, then nodded slightly: "There should be a 70% chance of victory. It is no problem to severely damage the Jin army and force it to retreat from the grassland. It is unlikely to completely annihilate the Fenyang County Prince."

Shi Tianze saw that Ye Xian and Alazhiyuan looked a little unhappy, but he said bluntly: "The Jin army under Li Xuan is different from Li Ling, the cavalry captain. Li Ling's army has no support from inside or outside, and has traveled thousands of miles without any ammunition or food. Absolutely.

But now Li Xuan has a large number of earthen forts from Xuanfu to Ulaanbaatar, which not only occupy the water sources everywhere, but also have enough food storage. Unless the Great Khan can find a way to break their formation, there will be no problem in withdrawing their main force. "

This is very difficult. In the past, during the second Northern Expedition of Emperor Taizu of the Jin Dynasty, the forward cavalry of "King of Zhongshan" Xu Tiande advanced rashly and was defeated south of Lake Baikal, losing more than 10,000 people. But in the end, the main force of the Jin army retreated from the Mobei grassland unharmed.

The Mongols tried their best, but could not capture even one step of the Jin army.

Shi Tianze didn't think Li Xuan's military use would be any worse than that of the 'King of Zhongshan' Xu Tiande.

Da Siming, however, already had a look of joy on her face. She thought that even if she only won a small victory in Mobei and forced the Jin army back from the grassland, it would be a huge victory for Jinque Tiangong.

This would not only greatly consume the national power of the Jin Dynasty, but also shake the prestige of Li Xuan.

"In this case, we at Jinque Tiangong are willing to help!"

Da Siming raised her delicate chin: "I, Jinque Tiangong, are willing to assist the Great Khan with fifty thousand pieces of chainmail made in the Western Regions, eighty thousand hundred-refined scimitars, and three thousand Damascus knives, in order to strengthen the Khan's reputation! "

At this time, the financial resources of Jinque Tiangong were still struggling.

But there are still a lot of weapons stocks on the East Island, all of which are weapons and armor collected and stored by Jinque Tiangong in the past.

The main thing that was burned last time was food, and most of the weapons reserves were preserved.

Therefore, in addition to firearms, King Yi Wang Yu Jianshen never lacked soldiers and armor.

Ye Xian immediately regained his smile, and the look of worry on his face disappeared: "Thank you so much, Commander! I, Mengwuer Lang, am short of armor and swords, so I won't be polite to you. This time I have to rely on you. The power of the Heavenly Palace, Yu Jie who checks and balances the Jin army, and that Tushanjun."

Da Siming nodded slightly and said: "This is exactly why I am here. Don't worry, Great Khan, Jinque Tiangong will never let Yu Jie and that evil beast do evil!"

When she mentioned Tu Shanjun, a gloom flashed in her eyes.

Da Siming originally wanted to use this demon fox to cause trouble in this person's backyard and dismember Li Xuan's connections.

But in the end, the demon fox lost contact with Jinque Tiangong, and seemed to be surrendered by Li Xuan, and began to serve him wholeheartedly.

This made Da Siming angry to this day, and he hated the demon fox to the core.

Meanwhile, in Ulaanbaatar.

Li Xuan's flag has been erected high, and the desolate bugle sound resounds throughout the world.

When the Oara and Tatar tribes began to raise troops, Shenxue Qingluan had already detected it.

Li Xuan judged that Choros Yexian had already marched eastwards and had the intention of fighting his own side.

But he took his time, gathering troops and horses from the front, arranging various war equipment, and then held a grand banquet on the night of the ninth day of July to reward the entire army.

In addition to limited drinks, there were plenty of various meats and delicacies collected by Li Xuan's staff during the banquet, allowing the soldiers to enjoy themselves till midnight.

When the Japanese army erected the banner of "Prince Li of Fenyang" the next day, all the Jin army camps around Ulaanbaatar burst into cheers. The shouts of "The prince is a thousand years old" and "His Royal Highness is invincible" shook the whole country. .

Then groups of neat red army formations walked out of the camp, full of energy and marching towards the west with high fighting spirit.

"Morale is available!"

Shang Hong stood next to Li Xuan and looked at the hundreds of thousands of Jin troops marching in formation with a relaxed and happy expression: "The art of using troops depends on the art of relaxation, and His Highness the Prince is very knowledgeable about it."

Just looking at the united morale of the 430,000-strong army, he knew that the Jin army had a great chance of winning this battle.

At this time, Shang Hong was worried about his colleagues and colleagues in Beijing.

Ever since Prince Fenyang sent troops outside the Great Wall, the voices of opposition and criticism in the court have become louder and louder.

This was all due to the Tumubao Incident and the failure of Taizong's five Northern Expeditions. Many scholar-bureaucrats were worried that the Jin Dynasty would suffer another setback. And even if you win by luck, it will be of no benefit to the Great Jin.

Shang Hong agreed with their idea at first, but as the time came to the end of June, the Jin army's advantage became more and more obvious.

He also sent a letter to persuade, but instead he received a reply from these colleagues to criticize him, thinking that he was bewitched by the king of Fenyang County and failed to observe the supervision of the military envoy.

Shang Hong had a headache, and he didn't care about being scolded by his colleagues. But he was worried that after this glorious victory, Prince Fenyang would use the opportunity to clean up the court.

At that time, the more joyfully these people danced, the more likely they were to be purged.

But now in the whole court, there are fewer and fewer people who have the courage to directly accuse the Fenyang County Prince of his faults.

Li Xuan did not pay attention to Shang Hong's little thoughts. He said calmly: "I didn't think too much about it. It's just that the armies have traveled thousands of miles and have been stationed in Mobei for nearly a month. They are inevitably tired. Before the decisive battle, it is best to let them They were relaxed and happy."

At this time, the 430,000 Jin troops were under his control, marching westward along the Tula River in a leisurely manner.

When Li Xuan entered the grassland for the first time, he quickly traveled hundreds of miles in one day.

But at this time, the Jin army only traveled less than eighty miles throughout the day.

This slowness also has the advantage of being slow. It can allow the Jin army to preserve its grassroots establishment and organization to the greatest extent, and keep the army's combat power at its peak.

Li Xuan knew that the Mongols were marching very fast, and no matter how hard they hurried, they could not stop the Mongolian army from crossing the Aluhun River.

Li Xuan's ideal place for the decisive battle was not the Aluhun River, but a place on the east bank of the Tula River called Podi Mountain.

"King of Zhongshan" Xu Tiande once defeated the main force of the Mongols here, forcing them to flee to the Lake Baikal area in the north of the mountain.

Although it was later proven that Meng Wu was defeated, it was actually a fake defeat and was a preparation to lure the enemy deeper.

But Li Xuan inspected the local terrain and found that the terrain here is flat, with high east and low west. It is indeed beneficial to infantry combat, especially musketry.

Moreover, the river here has a large bend, forming a curved river similar to the shape of a 'ji', which means that in this battle, they can use the terrain here to encircle and annihilate the enemy on a large scale, reenacting Fan Guang's battle at Jiesheng Gang Completely annihilate Wu Liangha's Black Wolf Cavalry in one battle.

Just two days later, on July 11, the 430,000 Jin troops under Li Xuan arrived at Poenemy Mountain as scheduled.

Just when the Jin army began to form formations along the mountain, to the north of them, a wave of Mongol knights like a sea were slowly crushing them with a suffocating momentum.
