In the late Ming Dynasty, rising from the grassland

Chapter 132 Ye Hebu’s panic
"Quick, abandon the horse and cross the river directly..."

Namuzhong took five hundred Mongolian teenagers and finally escaped to the edge of the Yellow River at the last moment when they were overtaken.

Everyone jumped off their horses and rushed towards the frozen ice without even having time to grab their bows and arrows.

Because her feet were too slippery, she fell down frequently, but she got up immediately and continued running forward. Even Namuzhong fell several times, which made her feel as embarrassed as she wanted.

"Fire arrows!"

Ye He was only one step too late and caught up to the river. While calling on the warriors to shoot them with arrows, he also asked people to dismount and catch up on foot.

"what…"

"After sweating, they caught up..."

Some of the teenagers who were last were hit by bows and arrows and fell on the ice one after another. Seeing this, the other teenagers quickly pulled the wounded and ran away. When they saw that the opponent had dismounted and chased after them, they were also very anxious.

"Don't be afraid, don't stop, keep running forward, our reinforcements should be arriving soon."

Namuzhong shouted loudly while continuing to urge everyone to run forward and get out of the opponent's bow and arrow range as soon as possible.

Although she did not go directly to the camp downstream in order to escape to the Yellow River as soon as possible, the camp on the other side was only more than ten miles away from the ice. Even if they did not hear their horns, the sentry should have noticed the situation here.

Sure enough, Na Muzhong and others just escaped to the middle of the Yellow River, and a group of cavalry rushed towards the bank from the downstream at high speed.

"Chief, their reinforcements have arrived. Let the warriors move back quickly!"

"leader…"

At this time, Ye He's attention was no longer on Namuzhong and the others, but was staring at the huge camp more than ten miles away on the other side of the river with a look of horror on his face.

"Chief, please order the warriors to retreat quickly!"

It wasn't until the people around him reminded him again that he came back to his senses and hurriedly shouted: "Quick, let the warriors get back..."

In fact, there was no need to give orders at all. The 1000 people that Ye He was chasing were not blind. When they discovered that a large number of cavalry had arrived on the other side, four to five thousand in total, they stopped one after another, and then rolled around and turned around. There were also many more cavalrymen. Embarrassing, how embarrassing.

"Chief, I didn't expect that Queen Khan would bring so many people, including more than five thousand cavalry. We really... this time..."

At this time, everyone also discovered the large camp downstream on the opposite bank, and looked at the thousands of cavalry on the opposite side. Their faces were all filled with death, knowing that they were in big trouble this time.

Ye He was equally shocked and frightened, as if he had fallen into an ice cellar. He secretly thought that he was really careless this time, and he understood why Tano did not dare to send someone to intercept Na Mu Zhong.

Tano must have discovered Namu Zhong's strength a long time ago. It's a shame that he didn't remind himself, but now it's too late to say anything.

The ice surface was too slippery and he came in such a hurry that the horses' hooves were not wrapped with cloth to prevent them from slipping. Seeing the pursuers retreating, Lin Rui just asked the cavalry to wait on the shore, and he dismounted and led the men to meet them.

"Madam, what's going on? Are you hurt?"

Lin Rui hurriedly stepped forward and supported the panting Na Muzhong. He was also shocked when he saw the mess on her face and her head and face were covered with snow and ice debris.

"Rui, Rui Lang, I, I'm fine..." Namu Zhong gasped.

"Who is that person opposite?" Lin Rui was relieved to see that she was not injured, and asked while helping her clean the snow on her face and head.

"He is from Ye He's tribe. That traitor Ye He actually dared to kidnap and kill me... Rui Lang, hurry up and get the warriors ready to cross the river. I must kill him with my own hands..."

Na Muzhong immediately urged her, her teeth clenching, showing how angry she was.

She was the most noble woman on the grassland, the former Queen of the Mongolian Khan, and it was fine to be chased by the Jurchens. But now she was chased by a small tribe, and she was chased in such an embarrassing manner. It was really a shame and a great humiliation.

"Calm down first. Let's go over now. They are shooting arrows on the shore. We are at a huge disadvantage. Besides, it is getting dark soon. You can tell me the situation first. Don't worry, they can't escape. I will definitely help them." your turn."

When he heard that his woman was being hunted, Lin Rui was furious, but then he calmed down and comforted her.

"You are right, let them live a little longer..."

After his reminder, Namuzhong calmed down a lot. Instead of shouting to pursue him immediately for revenge, she introduced Lin Rui to the situation she had discovered this time.

"In this way, the Eqig tribe will definitely support you, and the Yehe tribe will definitely be destroyed. As for the easternmost Tano tribe, they have neither actively sent people to contact you nor intercepted you. It should be Be neutral.”

By this time, everyone had arrived at the shore. Lin Rui helped her sit down, listened to what she said, and then made a preliminary analysis.

"Well, although my uncle has been detained for naturalization, my cousin and other tribesmen are willing to follow me. If we leave the inner sleeve in the future, can I take them with me?" Namu nodded. He nodded, and after taking a few sips of strong wine, his face became much rosier.

"Of course you can. Let's do this. The ice is thick enough for a car to pass. We will start crossing the river tomorrow. We will first force the Tano tribe to express its stance, and then surround the Ye He tribe."

"Why are we surrounded? The Yehe tribe only has a population of more than 7000. With our current strength, we can destroy them without any effort at all?" Namuzhong looked at him with some confusion, unsure of the strength of the Han soldiers. , she already had a clear understanding. Let alone a Yehe tribe with more than 7000 people, as long as they were blocked by their infantry in the camp, even a large tribe of 4 to [-] people could be easily wiped out.

"Haha, I asked you to read more military books, but you didn't read them. You insist on reading those miscellaneous books. It's just a Ye He tribe. It's winter again. You can kill them at any time. But think about it, Ye He has completely offended you. Damn, you just saw our great strength again, what will you do when you go back?"

Lin Rui chuckled.

He didn't pay attention to a Ye He tribe at all. Rather than destroying them directly, it was better to make bait first, which would be more valuable.

Namuzhong's eyes also lit up, and he blurted out: "They will definitely ask the Jurchens for help."

"Yes, if that Hauge dares to lead the Jurchen cavalry to come for reinforcements, I will have to annihilate his entire army. If he doesn't dare to come and watch us destroy the Ye He tribe, which tribe in this Hetao will dare to trust him in the future? "

"It's true. The Tumuts won't follow Haug in the winter. They don't have so much food to feed their horses, and they can't bring the fodder in the camp. Rui Lang, I knew you would have a way to deal with the Jurchens. .”

Namuzhong became more and more excited as she talked, and at the end of the sentence, her face was filled with admiration.

She knew that Prince Su Hauge was no match for her man. At this moment, she became even more confident in conquering the Hetao and unifying the grassland.

"I hope all the Tumuts will come over, so that we can deal with them once and for all this winter."

As time goes by, it will only get colder. They have enough food, fodder and charcoal for heating. As long as the Jurchens and Tumut people dare to come, they can drag them to death.

"They won't come unless they move the entire tribe, but no tribe will migrate in winter. The old people, children, pregnant women and lambs will freeze to death."

Namuzhong shook his head.

"Then ignore them for now, but in order to prevent the Ye He tribe from jumping over the wall and abandoning the camp and running away, you will lead the cavalry across the river tomorrow to keep an eye on them."

This place is not close to Guihua City, nor is it far away. If the people of the Ye He tribe simply abandon their old and weak animals and flee with all their food and young and strong horses, they might actually be able to escape to Guihua City.

Of course, this possibility is extremely small, but Lin Rui still does not intend to give them such an opportunity. If they dare to chase his woman, he will let all the tribes in the grassland see the fate of Ye He's tribe.

At this time, Ye He had already left with two thousand warriors and went directly to the Tano tribe. As a result, he was stopped outside the camp and was rejected. He had to curse outside.

"Chief, we can't count on anyone from the Tano tribe, let alone the Eqig tribe to the west. What should we do now? Namuzhong will definitely not let us go."

"How about we send someone to apologize to the Queen Khan and ask for her forgiveness?"

"We hunted her down so badly, how could she forgive us?"

"Hey, it's over this time."

Everyone looked at Ye He worriedly, and they couldn't help but feel resentful in their hearts. If he hadn't been greedy for the princely title promised by the Jurchens, they wouldn't have offended Namuzhong to death. At most, they wouldn't help each other.

"Let's go back and talk about it first!" Although Ye He was also uneasy, he could only wave his hands pretending to be calm.

After returning to the camp, the entire Ye He tribe fell into panic, complaining that the patriarch had brought disaster to them.

And Ye He had no choice but to appease the tribesmen and prepare to move north to escape, while at the same time sending people to rush for help from the naturalized Hauge.

However, two days later, when Ye He's tribe discarded everything that should be discarded and was about to forcibly migrate, Na Muzhong came over with five thousand cavalry and killed them.

Originally, the people in Ye He's tribe thought it was over, and many people planned to surrender directly. It was obvious that the other party had no intention of launching an attack, so they relaxed a little.

Ye He also hurriedly organized people to unload the things again and built a snow wall to prepare for defense. While sending his eldest son to beg Namuzhong for mercy, he also sent people to ask for help from the Tano tribe.

"Go back and tell your father that if you want to ask for mercy, there is no way."

"Just now, I didn't bother to take advantage of others' danger. I gave you seven days to prepare. When the time comes, I will personally cut your father into pieces!"

Facing Ye He's eldest son who came to beg for mercy, Namuzhong said a cold word with a pretty face and had people drive him back.

"Queen Khan... Then we surrender directly. Can you forgive us?"

"I will not accept surrender, get out!"

Na Muzhong waved her hand in disgust, and several teenagers immediately rushed forward, raised their whips and whipped them randomly.

Ye He's eldest son had no choice but to flee in embarrassment with whip marks all over his face.

Hearing that the Khan Queen refused to accept surrender and wanted to cut himself into pieces, Ye He was paralyzed with fear and his intestines turned green with regret.

At this time, Ebutu also came with a thousand cavalry to help.
