My father Zhu Gaoxu

Chapter 491 The battle shook the grassland
escape!Run away desperately!
Arutai had only one thought in his mind now, which was to get rid of the pursuing soldiers behind him as soon as possible, so that he could not fall into Ming's hands no matter what.

Arutai had long since replaced his armor with ordinary leather armor. Then a confidant put on his own armor, branded it with his own banner, and was escorted by his personal guards, attracting the Ming Dynasty's pursuers.

Now Arutai only had a centurion with him, and he was escorted by centurion Hu Chi to escape from the battlefield.

But even so, there are still Ming cavalry chasing them. For example, there is a cavalry squad of hundreds of people behind them, biting them hard because the Ming army has an advantage in strength. From the beginning, There was no intention of letting any deserter go.

"Whoosh~"

A feather arrow shot from behind quickly, hitting Arutai's back. Fortunately, the distance between the two sides was far away, and the arrow was blocked by the leather armor, but it still scared Arutai into a cold sweat.

"Wuzhu, take someone to cut off the queen!"

Hu Chi, who was standing next to him, saw Arutai in danger and immediately ordered the deputy beside him.

Wu Zhu agreed, and turned back with dozens of cavalry to fight back, finally blocking the pursuers behind him. However, Wu Zhu and the others were outnumbered and soon fell at a disadvantage, but they still fought to the death.

With Wu Zhu and the others behind, they finally bought Arutai time to escape. A group of dozens of horses galloped around and were about to disappear at the end of the horizon.

However, at this moment, another Ming army cavalry suddenly came out from the rear right. Moreover, this cavalry had excellent horses and was very fast. It would catch up with Arutai and the others in the blink of an eye.

Faced with this situation, Arutai couldn't help but show a look of despair, because not only were the Ming cavalry horses fast, but their number was ten times theirs. If they caught up with him, he would definitely die.

"Grand Master, I apologize for my incompetence and can no longer escort you!"

At this time, Hu Chi, who was next to him, suddenly whispered to Arutai, and then shouted: "Brothers, follow me to kill the enemy!"

After Hu Chi finished speaking, he turned his horse's head and rushed towards the approaching Ming army. Dozens of horsemen behind him also roared and galloped away after Hu Chi.

Arutai looked at Hu Chi and others walking away, and his eyes were red. Hu Chi was once his personal guard and his most trusted subordinate, but now he is willing to die in order to save himself!
But now is not the time to think about this. Arutai quickly wiped his eyes and galloped away again. Now there are only seven people left around him. These are his most trusted personal guards. There were originally thousands of people, but Almost all of them died in the battle to save him.

Hu Chi, who was behind him, led his men to kill the Ming army like moths rushing to a flame.

Although their courage was commendable, in the face of ten times the enemy force, Hu Chi's cavalry were slaughtered with just one charge. In the end, only the scarred Hu Chi was left holding a scimitar in his hand to fight his way out of the encirclement, but in the end he He turned around again and fought back, but was eventually cut into pieces by the Ming army's swords.

Hu Chi and others died in the battle, finally buying Arutai time to escape. By the time the Ming Dynasty's cavalry wanted to pursue them again, Arutai and the others had already escaped from sight.

Moreover, the Ming army did not know that the fleeing person was Arutai, so after chasing for a while, they finally gave up.Therefore, Arutai, the dignified Tatar Grand Master and the future overlord who almost unified the grasslands, was defeated in Xinghe and finally fled back to the grasslands with only seven riders.

Zhu Di counted the results of the battle in Xinghe City. Among the 3000 Tatar troops, more than 2 were killed in the battle. Most of them were trampled to death after rushing into the Wengcheng of Xinghe. In addition, more than [-] surrendered.

It can be said that in this battle, almost all the Tatar elites were annihilated. Even if some escaped, it would not affect the overall situation.

The only pity was that Arutai could not be captured, but the war between the Ming Dynasty and the Tatars had just begun. Since Zhu Di decided to conquer the country personally, he would not stop at Xinghe.

So after a brief inventory of the results of the battle, Zhu Di personally led an army of [-] people, marched into the grassland as quickly as possible, and attacked the Asote headquarters of Arutai.

All the Tatar elites were lost in Xinghe, and the Asot troops were empty. It was a good time to destroy them in one fell swoop. Zhu Di would never miss such a good opportunity. In addition, Arutai probably fled back to Asot. Special, maybe we can capture the opponent alive this time.

At the same time that Zhu Di led his troops into the grassland, the results of the Battle of Xinghe finally reached the grassland, and all the major tribes were shocked.

You must know that seven or eight years have passed since the last time Zhu Di sent troops to the grassland. These were also the most "quiet" years for various tribes in the grassland. Although most of the tribes were constantly fighting against each other, at least they had restraint on each other, even if they were as strong as A Lutai cannot sweep across the grassland alone.

However, the Ming Dynasty was an invincible behemoth for the grassland. Even if it occasionally suffered losses, it would soon retaliate tenfold and a hundredfold. Especially after Zhu Di ascended the throne, he continued to launch attacks on the grassland, causing all tribes to hear the news. Bright color changes.

As a result, only a few years after it disappeared, Zhu Di came again, and he was the king of attack. Arutai, who almost unified the grassland and became the overlord of the grassland, was completely wiped out in the small Xinghe. In the end, it is said that only He took Qi Qi and fled back to the grassland.

The tribes such as the Duoyan Guards and other tribes who sent troops with Arutai were either killed or captured. I heard that the leader of the Duoyan Guards, Al, was captured. Now the Ming army has sent envoys to ask the Duoyan Guards to pay a ransom to redeem their lives. It is estimated that the Duoyan Guards will redeem themselves. There will be heavy bleeding.

When the major tribes were shocked by the defeat of Arutai, Zhu Di took the initiative to send troops and news of the invasion of the grassland came out. This frightened the major tribes and retreated one after another, for fear of blocking the path of the Ming army.

At the same time, Zhu Di's army rushed all the way and soon reached the headquarters of the Asote Department.

The Asote Tribe is the most powerful tribe in the Tatars. It is located next to the Duoyan Guard. Every winter, they will migrate to the south to live in the grasslands near the Ming Dynasty. In addition, Arutai wanted to sneak attack the Ming Dynasty before, so the Asote tribe wanted to attack the Ming Dynasty. The station of the Sute Department is not far from Xinghe, only three or four days away.

Zhu Zhanhe followed the army all the way in the past few days and suffered a lot. In order to achieve the effect of a surprise attack, Zhu Di ordered the army to abandon their baggage and only bring enough rations. Finally, under this rapid march, the army reached Ah in three days. Special department.

Asote had already heard the news of Arutai's defeat, and was packing his things at this time, preparing to flee to the north. However, there were only a few old and weak women left in the entire Asote tribe, and he wanted to rely on them to relocate the entire tribe. His actions were natural. I can't get up quickly either.

So they were just halfway through cleaning up when Zhu Di led his army to kill them, and then rushed into Asote's station without stopping.
