The ruthless emperor in the late Ming Dynasty forced Chongzhen to abdicate at the beginning

Chapter 214

Not long after Wu Sanfu and Tu Mote's troops set off, Obai led [-] cavalry to kill them.

Perhaps because it was useless to know what to disturb, Obai chose two high-lying hillsides 150 miles southwest of the Ming army's main camp, and stood ready.

In the camp of the Ming army thirty miles away, Wu Shanfu and Tugel were arguing red-faced and unable to talk.

"King Shunyi, don't the warriors of your Tumote tribe claim to be not afraid of building slaves? Why are you pushing back and forth, afraid of fighting and dying?"

Wu Sanfu looked disdainful. From his point of view, it was natural that the cavalry of Tumed's troops took the lead in the charge, followed by the chariots, and the infantry followed behind.

But this guy actually wanted their infantry to attack the mountain, and when the opponent's cavalry charged, he led the cavalry from the territory's Mott Department to attack the flanks of the slave cavalry. It was a big joke. Is he a fool?

The opponent's cavalry rushed down condescendingly, with such power, even if the infantry formed a formation and was covered by chariots, they would suffer heavy losses.

"Fart, when did this king say that he was afraid of building slaves? It's just that the other party deployed all the cavalry on the hillside, and the cavalry rushed from bottom to top. Isn't this letting the warriors of my Tumot department die in vain?"

Tugel snorted coldly, let alone Wu Sanhu, a Ming general, even if the little emperor was around, he would not take the warriors of his family to rush to the hillside.

"It's a pity that you have the nerve to say that the cavalry charge will die, let alone the infantry."

"Then make a detour."

Both of them looked at Lan Duoer.

"Then let's make a detour!" Landuoer nodded and said, in fact, it was quite difficult for him to be caught in the middle.

The next day, the army did not continue to move forward, but began to turn south.

Oboi had no choice but to lead the army to follow. On the third day, when he was only about a hundred miles away from the Ming army's main camp, Oboi knew that he could not delay any longer, and finally launched an attack.

The [-] cavalry came rumblingly, and the momentum was earth-shattering. Except for the [-] real Eight Banners, the rest of the [-] cavalry were the cavalry from the Mongolian Eight Banners and the Horqin Department, while the [-] cavalry from Mobei stayed in the building. slave camp.

Apparently, Dole was not worried about the [-] cavalry in Mobei, knowing that those guys might not be able to fight tough battles.

Facing the incoming cavalry of the Eight Banners, the Ming army reacted very quickly. The army immediately stopped advancing and began to form a formation, while two hundred chariots went up to meet them.

The cavalry of Tugel and Tumed were a little panicked, they didn't go up to meet them immediately, but ran away directly to avoid the battle, ready to start a fight.

Obviously, Tugel was reluctant to use the warriors of the clan to fight directly with Jiannu's cavalry.

"General, these Mongols are really unreliable. Damn it, let the chariot battalion come back, or you will suffer a lot."

"Damn it, I knew they didn't dare to be tough with Jiannu, hurry up, blow the horn, and let the brothers from the Chariot Camp back."

Wu Sanfu was angry and impatient. Originally there were [-] chariots in the lead, followed by [-] Tumed cavalry. Even if they were defeated by Jiannu's [-] cavalry, as long as the two sides rushed forward and fought together, the infantry would be able to outflank them from both wings.

But now the [-] cavalry from Tumed's troops ran away directly, and they would face the direct charge of [-] cavalry. He was not sure whether the temporarily assembled army could stop them, so he was sweating anxiously.

As the coach, Landuoer naturally stayed in the formation. Seeing that the eldest brother ran away with the warriors, he was half-dead with anger, and immediately realized that the eldest brother was not afraid of fighting and dying, but that he was not used to it.

Tuhar is indeed not used to this kind of joint combat with the infantry. When the slave cavalry attacked, he subconsciously wanted to distance himself and start shooting.

It wasn't until he left with the cavalry that he realized it, but it was obviously too late to turn around at this time.

On the other hand, Aobai was also overjoyed to see the cavalry from Tumed's troop slipping away, but he was also afraid that the cavalry from Tumed's troop would rush up with the chariot.

Seeing that the Ming army reacted quickly, a large number of carriages and artillery were arranged in front of each phalanx, and the chariots also turned around and fled back. They did not directly attack the infantry phalanx, but tested it from the side, and led the cavalry directly. Go after the Tummet Ministry.

Because if the formation of the infantry of the Ming army is not disordered, if they rush up directly, not only will they suffer heavy losses, but the cavalry of Tumote's troops will definitely turn around and attack the flanks or rear of their own cavalry.

And if they went directly to pursue the cavalry of Tumed's department, the Ming army could only stare blankly. After the cavalry of Smut's department was wiped out, it would be much easier to go back and deal with the infantry of the Ming army.

Seeing that Jiannu's cavalry did not go directly to attack the Ming army, but actually chased them, Tugel was also very surprised, but he was not too nervous.

The Mongolian cavalry's turn-around archery is specialized in pursuing soldiers, Oboi naturally understood that he could not directly pursue the Mongolian cavalry, so the army was divided into two, one left and one right chased up from both sides.

In this way, the 10,000+ cavalry from both sides continued to change horses and pursue them on the vast grassland. Tugel wanted to get closer to the Ming army several times, but was blocked by Jiannu cavalry, and his heart gradually sank.

Knowing that it is impossible not to fight recklessly, otherwise, once the physical strength of the war horses is seriously exhausted, the situation will only get worse. After all, they have nothing to carry, and the Ming army is responsible for the tents and food.

And Jiannu cavalry is one man and three horses. You don't need to think about it. You must have food and salt with you, so you can chase and fight in the wild for a long time.

On the other hand, Wu Sanfu laughed happily, and simply set up camp where he was, and started cooking.

"General Wu, please send the Chariot Battalion to meet my elder brother and the others."

Lan Duoer also knew that if the eldest brother and the others were unable to get closer to the Ming army today, it would definitely be a disaster.

"Imperial Concubine, it's not that I don't want to send a battalion of chariots to meet him, but that it's too dangerous to rely on chariots alone without cavalry."

Wu Sanfu frowned slightly, so he could only explain.

The cavalry battalion has been transferred, and now he can say that he doesn't even have a single cavalry, so he doesn't want to let the chariot battalion take risks at all.

"I know that General Wu is blaming my elder brother for running away with the cavalry just now, but our Mongols' combat method is mainly based on loitering, and we usually don't charge directly unless it is absolutely necessary. Just now, elder brother definitely did not do it on purpose. And if the elder brother and the others are wiped out by Jiannu, without the cavalry, we will be unable to move an inch, let alone rendezvous with His Majesty and the others, and we may end up being consumed by Jiannu on the grassland."

"General, your majesty is right. Your lips are dead and your teeth are cold. You must not leave them alone. In terms of military value, the [-] cavalry of Tumed's troops are more important than us. Without us, His Majesty can still defeat the main force of slavery, but if there is no With [-] cavalry, the outcome is hard to predict."

"That's right, the imperial concubine is the commander-in-chief, and the commander-in-chief's order must not be violated, and the general please obey the order!"

Several high-ranking generals who were former students of the Martial Arts Hall spoke quickly, and after they finished speaking, they all stared at Wu Sanfu, as if he would take down immediately if he dared to disobey the order.

Wu Sanfu also bullied Lan Duoer who didn't understand the Ming army's military law and military system. If Lan Duoer gave the order directly as the commander, he would never dare to disobey it. Now seeing that these students are so rude, he is also very annoyed. Kind way:

"Did I ever say that I didn't follow orders? Isn't it because the empress didn't order directly just now?"

Several students were also embarrassed and silent, and they were speechless when they were scolded. Just now they saw that Wu Sanfu directly opposed the empress, so they were impolite. Now that I think about it, what the empress really said just now was please, not an order.

At this time, the cavalry on both sides had disappeared from sight, and Wu Sanfu had no choice but to let the chariot battalion catch up. As for the infantry, they would definitely not be able to support them.
