The most reckless man in the Ming Dynasty.

Chapter 410: Capture Dayan Khan alive!
The entire battlefield has turned into a chessboard.

Under Tang Hao's military orders, his own chess pieces also moved accordingly. Every tiny flaw of the left wing of the Mongolian army was an opportunity for him to take advantage of.

While Tang Hao was overlooking the entire chessboard, Dayan Khan felt as if he was trapped in a dragnet, with every step he took being subject to endless constraints.

Moreover, these restraints were still getting stronger and stronger. Although there was still hope, he already felt a little breathless.

He once again looked at the burly figure that had caused him so much hatred. The changing of the flags and the rhythm of the war drums seemed to clearly tell him what kind of terrifying existence he was facing!
Infantry formations, cavalry charges, artillery salvos... the left wing of Mongolia was in a desperate situation.

Everything was upright and aboveboard, but he, the Great Khan of Mongolia, was driven into a dead end little by little by this uprightness and aboveboard!
He is crushing the hopes of Left Mongolia and the entire Great Mongolia bit by bit!

The sun is rising in the sky.

The world is blood red.

Those lights, whether it was the blood light on the soldiers or the blood light that dyed the grassland, seemed to be intertwined together, rendering the entire world red.

The left-wing army, which had been fighting fiercely but desperately, had now been completely compressed into that narrow area by the Ming soldiers.

The great banner of the Mongol Khan was still standing tall. The left wing army, which was completely surrounded, gathered together back to back, defending the last glory of the Mongol Khan.

Dayan Khan looked at the scene in a trance, his eyes bloodshot.

He never thought that he would be defeated!

When he was three or four years old, he was carried by Mandu Haihadun to fight on the battlefield. It can be said that he grew up in military life.

After Manduhaikhatun passed away, Dayan Khan officially took power and inherited Manduhaikhatun's will. He made the unification of Mongolia his lifelong career. He experienced countless wars, big and small, but never suffered such a disastrous defeat as today!
Yes, a miserable defeat!
One hundred thousand cavalrymen were defeated just like that!

The Ming army was powerful, and Dayan Khan could accept it.

Dayan Khan could still accept that firearms and artillery were no match for the Ming army.

But even in a cavalry duel, the Mongolian cavalry actually lost. How could he accept this?

What does it mean when an army composed mainly of cavalry fails to break out several times and is completely compressed and surrounded, unable to even deploy its cavalry formation?
Obviously, the answer is self-evident and very clear.

This is also something Dayan Khan almost never thought about.

The once-mighty Mongolian cavalry had never suffered such an end.

Moreover, it was the Ming army, which they regarded as weaklings like sheep, that was forced to this point!

stomping on...

In this oppressive silence, horse hooves trampled over the bloody remains.

Alone, Tang Hao slowly walked to the front of the Mongolian army.

"You are Tang Hao, Marquis of Zhongshan of the Ming Dynasty?!"

Seeing the coming people, the Mongolian army opened a gap in the formation. Dayan Khan rode out on his horse and shouted loudly from a distance of a hundred steps.

"It's me!" Tang Hao nodded, looked at the rather embarrassed Dayan Khan in front of him, and said in a deep voice: "Are you willing to surrender?"

"Hahahaha!" Dayan Khan laughed uncontrollably after these words came out, but his laughter could not hide his endless bitterness and unwillingness!
The Mongolian cavalry roamed everywhere, but when had they ever been in such a situation?
They were actually besieged here by the Ming army!

They actually asked the Ming general to say the three words "Are you willing to surrender" to Dayan Khan Batu Mengke!
It's really ridiculous...and sad!
"Marquis Zhongshan of the Ming Dynasty!"

"You are an outstanding commander!"

"I, Batu Mengke, deserved my defeat!"

Dayan Khan said loudly, praising Tang Hao, showing his kingly demeanor. "But, as the orthodox Mongolian Khan, I, Batu Mengke, will never surrender to the Ming Dynasty!"

"Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty and Mongolia have long forged a blood feud. No legitimate Mongolian Khan has ever surrendered to the Ming Dynasty in order to save his life!"

"There was none before, there is none now, and there will be none in the future!"

Hearing this, Tang Hao frowned, but was not surprised.

However, he really hoped that Dayan Khan Batu Mongke would surrender, because bringing back a living Mongolian prince and bringing back a corpse naturally had different meanings.

"Batu Mengke, you are an outstanding leader of Mongolia!"

"Then you should know that if you insist on seeking death, I will lead my army to exterminate all Mongolian tribes to eliminate the threat to the border..."

As soon as these words came out, the whole place was in an uproar!

Yibula and Mandulai were so shocked that their faces changed drastically and they looked at Tang Hao in disbelief.

This... this... what does it mean?
Could it be that the two of us are no match for a mere Dayan Khan?
If Tang Hao knew what the two were thinking, he would definitely sneer at them.

How could two great lords of different surnames be as important as Dayan Khan Batu Mongke?

There's no comparison between the two, right?
Since the Tumu Incident, the Ming Dynasty declined and no longer had the strength to cross the border. It could only passively accept attacks. In addition, the civil officials and gentry were in power, which led to the depletion of military strength and the neglect of border defenses. The great Ming Dynasty fell into the ridiculous situation where it could only be bullied by the Mongolian cavalry.

If Tang Hao captured Dayan Khan alive today and brought this little Mongolian prince who had intimidated the Ming Dynasty for decades back to Beijing, it would be the first major victory since the Battle of Tumu, enough to awaken the bloodiness and courage in the bones of the Ming men!

Batu Mengke's face changed drastically and he stared at Tang Hao.

"how dare you……"

"Why not?" Tang Hao sneered, "I came from Liaodong and slaughtered countless tribes!"

"Batu Mengke, you can try and see if I dare to do it?!"

He really dares!

Because that's what he did before!
From Liaodong to Liaoxi, to Daning, then Kaiping, until now!

This Ming Dynasty Zhongshan Hou always adhered to the principle of "those who are not of my race must have different hearts". Any nomadic tribes he passed by were slaughtered completely, even the elderly, the weak, women and children were not spared!
So, he really dares!
Dayan Khan's face became extremely ugly!
"You can choose to die for the self-esteem of the Mongolian Khan!"

Tang Hao said expressionlessly, "Then I can just massacre all the tribes in Mongolia after you die!"

"Of course, you can also choose to live in shame, which is what I want to see. As long as you follow me to the capital of the Ming Dynasty and die in the capital of the Ming Dynasty, I will promise you to withdraw my troops and never start a war again!"

"Batu Mengke, what do you think?"

If he dies now, this Ming Dynasty Zhongshan Marquis will continue his attack and exterminate all the Mongolian tribes!
Being humiliated and escorted to the capital of the Ming Dynasty to die there would buy a glimmer of hope for the Mongolian tribe!
Dayan Khan Batu Mengke faced a choice, but he did not think about it for too long.

Because he is Dayan Khan, the Great Khan of the Mongolian people!

Batu Mengke nodded with gritted teeth.

"Okay, I can promise you!"

"But I have one condition. You must kill the rebel leaders Yibula and Mandulai!"

"This Khan wants the entire grassland to know that anyone who dares to rebel against the Golden Family will be killed without a burial place!"
