At the foot of Ulan Butong Mountain is a series of camps, surrounding the low Ulan Butong Mountain and the brightly lit mountain city.These camps are all dug into moats and fenced with trees, and some of them rely on the Sarick River and another unnamed stream closer to Ulan Butong Mountain.Most of each camp can accommodate more than 1000 people, that is, a battalion of officers and soldiers of the Ming army.Different from the brightly lit mountain city, these camps guarding Ulan Butong Mountain are all hidden in the darkness, silently.
There are more than two hundred steps between each camp, and flintlock guns can barely block it.Although the camps were hiding in the darkness, between the camps and on the sand on the north bank of the Sarick River, a turpentine torch was inserted every few steps, burning flickeringly, illuminating the surrounding scene.Of course, the army camped in the dark was extremely quiet.However, Ge Erdan, who personally led a small number of Junggar warriors to explore the camp, could hear the faint sound of silk and bamboo coming from the castle on Ulan Butong Mountain.
Needless to say, it must be Zhu Hechi, the tyrant, living a debauched and immoral nightlife!Anu might also... No, he must be with Zhu and Qi!
When he thought that his beloved Anu happened to be watching a song and dance performance with Zhu and Qi holding hands, or even performing songs and dances for Zhu and Qi in person, Ge Erdan felt like he was about to explode, and his whole body trembled .
His generals, Dugal Alabutan, Danjin Ombu, Danjila, and Zhou Peigong immediately stood in front of Ge Erdan, held up binoculars to observe for a while, and then began to discuss in low voices.At this time, there seemed to be some surprises in their low words, which was undoubtedly an encouragement to Ge Erdan.
"...Fortunately, there is no long trench dug outside the camp of the Ming army, and the Sarick River can be waded, which is convenient for us to sneak attack..."
"Zhu Heqi came to form an alliance with the Mongolian chiefs in Monan, Mobei, and Dongdao. What are they going to do to dig a long trench? Now in Monan, Mobei, and Dongdao, there has long been no Khan or Tai who dared to openly fight against the flag." Good luck. Except for our Khan, I am afraid that no one has such an idea..."
"It seems that he took it lightly... It seems that the soldiers and horses he brought to Ulan Butong are not many, at most a dozen battalions, and the distance between the battalions is not small, maybe less than 2? "
"They don't seem to have sent out a sentry, Yebushu, they don't even know we've arrived... But Ulan Butong Mountain City is probably not easy to fight!"
"Mountain cities are easy to attack, just attack with fire! There are dense forests around Ulan Butong Mountain, and most of the mountain cities are also wooden cities. We brought a lot of fire oil from the Western Regions..."
At this time, Ge Erdan's voice suddenly came from behind them: "Let's go!"
Several people hurriedly turned their horses around, followed Ge Erdan silently and rode down the hillside. Below the hillside, there was a brigade of Junggar chain armored cavalry lurking in the darkness.
Twenty or thirty Zaisangs from Etuoke, Junggar, had been waiting at the foot of the hill for a long time. When Ge Erdan and the others came down, they all went up to meet him. In the dim light of a lantern, Ge Erdan's face was full of grim smiles.
"Buddha bless!" Ge Erdan said, "Emperor Zhu was unprepared, still singing and dancing... Today is the time for us to wait for the Mongol warriors to kill Emperor Zhu and avenge Uhagatu Khan and the Great Yuan Dynasty! I have observed carefully that Emperor Zhu built a wooden castle on Ulan Butong Mountain. We just need to rush over and set fire to it.
After killing Emperor Zhu, I will take you into the capital and build a great Yuan! "
He is not an ordinary Mongolian Khan, but a half-human, half-Buddha Khan!The prestige is extremely high in the Junggar Khanate that believes in the yellow religion... It is said that believing in the Buddha does not slander the monks, not to mention that Ge Erdan is still a living Buddha, and those who believe in him worship him as a living Buddha.
Otherwise, with his stinginess, recklessness and ungratefulness, it would be impossible to reach his current position.
The three generals, including Ge Erdan, and the group of Zai Sang under them all expressed their conviction at the moment, waiting for him to give an order.
Ge Erdan's order is very simple, that is, divide the troops into three groups.
Firstly, General Dugar Arabtan led an army of [-] to attack the main attack. He attacked from the left side of the mountain where Ge Erdan observed the enemy's situation just now, rushed across the Sariq River, and then used a small team to contain the camps, and then used the main force Rush to set fire under Ulan Butong Mountain——When Ge Erdan’s army left Tashkent, Kangxi Khan gave him a lot of kerosene, which is just in use now...you can set fire under Ulan Butong Mountain!
At the same time, Danjin Ombu led [-] elites from the right side to the north of Ulan Butong Mountain. If Zhu and Qi were burned by the fire and fled down the north slope of the mountain, they would just intercept them!
And Ge Erdan himself, together with Dan Jila and Zhou Peigong, led [-] Junggar cavalry to bluff on the south side of Ulan Butong Mountain to prevent Zhu Heqi from breaking out and escaping from this direction.
After a while, Ge Erdan had finished the arrangement, and all the Zaisangs rushed to mobilize their own troops and marched in the directions prescribed by them.And Ge Erdan preached to his two favorite generals, Dugar Arabbutan and Danjin Omu: "Remember, I, Junggar, only have this one chance. If I fail to succeed, I will never turn around...so you The two of you should go all out without leaving any room, and you must kill Zhu and Qi!"
"Yes!"
The two Mongolian generals shouted their orders and left.
Ge Erdan stood quietly, watching the departure of his squadron of Junggar chain armored cavalry, which split into two groups and marched to the battlefield. Zhou Pei said fairly: "Mr. Zhou, if this night attack succeeds, you will be my Mu Huali...you will be my Dayuan's hero for restoring the country!"
Zhou Peigong was also quite helpless, he had no intention of teaching Ge Erdan to take the risk of attacking Zhu Heqi... It's just that Ge Erdan misunderstood his meaning!But so far, the surprise attack seems to be going very smoothly!
Could it be... Can Zhu Hechi really be killed this time?This is really a blind cat meeting a dead mouse!No, my military advisor is not blind. This military advisor is Zhou Peigong, who is familiar with the art of war and anti-scriptures!There must be a time for this strategist's ingenious calculation, right?
Thinking of this, Zhou Peigong seemed to have regained the feeling of a genius military adviser, and the expression on his face was also unpredictable, and he was just about to wave a goose feather fan!
I saw him bowing his hands to Ge Erdan, and said with a smile: "My minister Zhou Peigong thanked the sweat!"
"Khan...hahaha!" Ge Erdan stretched out his hand to lead the horse, turned over, his eyes were full of murderous intent: "The whole army is attacking!"
Chapter 755 Ge Erdan, lost his wife and lost his army!
The sound of the piano is rippling, and the drums are bursting.
Accompanied by the rippling music and bursts of drums, a plump and graceful woman slowly twisted her snow-white waist in a huge tent.
The one who is dancing is not an ordinary dancer, but Zhu Heqi's "confidante" Anukodun...Compared with those women in Zhu Heqi's harem, her face is not so beautiful, and she is not too young , is in her thirties, but her figure is quite tasteful, not even under Da Boling.Da Boling is only partially "big", but overall she is not tall, and she is not considered "big size".And Anu is a real "plus-size" beauty, and she has been exercising for many years to keep her figure in good shape. Although she has given birth to three children, she still dances belly dance very well.
Seeing the snow-white waist and abdomen rising and falling like waves, Zhu and Qi who were sitting behind the table were a little crazy, and almost forgot that the place they were in might become the front line at any time.
"Report..."
Suddenly there was a long announcement from outside the tent.
Zhu Heqi quickly waved his hands, and the musicians who were playing stopped immediately, and Anukodun, who was dancing to his heart's content, suddenly lost the accompaniment of the music, so he had to stop and looked at Zhu Hechi.
Zhu Heqi had already stood up, did not ask the person who notified him outside, his face had already sank, and he said to Anu: "Anu, it should be Ge Erdan who called..."
"Saint..." Anu took off his veil and looked at Zhu and Qi with a complicated expression on his face.
Zhu Hechi said: "Anu, don't worry, I will let Ge Erdan live!"
Anu hurriedly saluted Zhu and Qi: "Anu thanked the Holy One for not killing Ge Erdan."
Zhu Heqi took a look at Anu, and said in his heart: "Ge Erdan, a somewhat brain-dead hero, is a rare and good opponent. As long as he doesn't seek death himself, I won't kill him! If I kill him, I will still be like this." Entering the Western Regions and Snow Regions? Today, as long as he loses his wife and loses his troops!"
In history, the Qing Dynasty was able to win the two territories of the Western Regions and the Snowy Region, which had a lot to do with Ge Erdan's thousands of miles of sending people away.If he manages the Western Regions and Kazakhs obediently, and doesn't compete with the Qing Dynasty for Khalkha, and doesn't rush all the way to Ulan Butong, which is only seven or eight hundred miles away from Beijing, he pretends to attack Beijing, and then separates Sanchawu sent a mission to Beijing to flatter Emperor Kangxi.The Qing Dynasty would not go to fight endlessly with the Junggar Khanate... Sometimes, an enemy with a little water is really more useful than a group of pig teammates!
Thinking of this, Zhu Heqi strode out of his golden tent.
……
On the battlefield of Ulan Butong, Ge Erdan was standing on a high place, and then the light set by Xingyue looked at the vaguely discernible battlefield.Because it was a night attack on the enemy camp, the two armies sent by Ge Erdan did not light torches, but were guided by moonlight, starlight and the Ming army's own lights, and quietly rushed towards the Sarick River.The Junggar cavalry had already had their coats in their mouths and their horses bound their hoofs, and they didn't make much movement along the way.It's just that it's not easy to form a team in the dark, and tens of thousands of cavalry are marching forward in groups.
In front of the mountain ridge where Ge Erdan was, the [-] Junggar cavalry in charge of bluffing had already formed a team of twenty or thirty cavalry, and formed a formation on the grassland south of the Sarick River. Everyone was holding turpentine torches. Just wait for the ignition.
The [-] Junggar cavalry in charge of attacking Emperor Zhu's camp from the front were rapidly approaching the Sarick River, and Ge Erdan's heart was already hanging.Although the water of the Sarik River is very shallow, it can be waded everywhere.But the speed of the horses wading forward cannot be increased... If there is an ambush on the other side of the river, the cavalry who are wading will be a living target!
At this moment, a piercing buzzing sound finally resounded in the night sky, tearing apart the silence under the darkness of night. This was the signal for the start of the general attack!
Everyone subconsciously swung their whips fiercely, lashing the horses desperately, driving them to scatter their hooves and charge straight forward!
In the darkness, the speed of the entire marching team suddenly accelerated, only the sound of rushing water suddenly sounded, and groups of Junggar cavalry rushed into the icy river, and their horses slammed across the stream, heading towards the Sarick River. Shore rushed.
At this moment, a Ming army camp on the north bank of the Sarick River suddenly woke up. First, it fired a rocket, which suddenly exploded in the air, making a loud noise, and turning into a ball of fire.Immediately afterwards, the torches lit one after another, and soon a camp hidden in the darkness was illuminated as if it were in daylight.
Ge Erdan hurriedly raised the binoculars to look forward, and when he saw the Ming army in the distance that was getting brighter and brighter, the Ming army was still forming in chaos, he let out a sigh of relief... The surprise attack has been successful!
In the darkness, the camps of the Ming army were lit up one after another, and the early warning rockets were shot into the sky one by one.But all these efforts were too late, because the Junggar cavalry had rushed across the Sarick River like a tide, passed through the gap between the Ming army camps, and pounced on Ulan Butong, which stood alone on the grassland. Mountain.Although there were some sentinels raising their guns in those lit camps, the sporadic firepower couldn't stop the Junggar cavalry flooding in like a tide!
Moreover, some of the Junggar cavalry who rushed across the Sarick River also carried muskets. After crossing the river, they dismounted and dismounted. Then, using their horses as a cover, they fired at the camp of the Ming army with their flintlock guns to attract them. The attention of the defenders.
As for the Junggar cavalry brigade, they went straight to Ulan Butong Mountain!
The Junggar cavalry rushing to Ulan Butong Mountain all carried kerosene bottles—although the kerosene bottles in the Great Mongolian Kingdom did not contain gel, they could already ignite the dense forest at the foot of Ulan Butong Mountain.
Because of the kerosene to support the combustion, the fire started at once, and as bottle after bottle of kerosene was thrown into the burning woods, the fire continued to burn.After a while, Ulan Butong Mountain was surrounded!
The fire surrounds the mountain!
And the mountain is not very high, the vegetation on the mountain is relatively dense, and there is a huge wooden castle... The fire will burn up sooner or later!
If Zhu Heqi was really debauched on the mountain, then he would be miserable, if he was not burned to death by the fire, he would have to be smoked into bacon by the heat and smoke!
Seeing this scene, Ge Erdan burst into tears of joy, and he still muttered: "Buddha blesses, ancestors bless, Changshengtian bless... burn Zhu Heqi to death quickly! Burn him to death, and Great Mongolia can really be saved revived!"
Zhou Peigong, who was immediately behind Ge Erdan, also wept with joy, "It's done, it's done, it's finally done, I, Zhou Peigong, am the number one military advisor in the world..."
When the two were weeping happily, a neat Mongolian shout suddenly sounded on the noisy battlefield: "Ge Erdan, use soldiers like a god Ge Erdan, lose your wife and lose your army!"
Chapter 756 This is actually the battle for the founding of the American Khanate!
"Ge Erdan, uses soldiers like a god Ge Erdan, lost his wife and broke his army..."
"Using soldiers like a god Ge Erdan, losing his wife and losing his soldiers..."
Although the environment on the battlefield is quite noisy, there are shouts of killing, gunshots, and the sound of horseshoes treading water, one after another is very lively.But the sound of tens of thousands of people roaring in unison can still cover up these noisy voices and reach Ge Erdan's ears.
Ge Erdan didn't hear clearly at first, but he could still understand people calling his name, so he asked the soldiers around him, "What are the Ming soldiers calling? Did you hear clearly?"
"Danjin Boshuo Ketuhan, the Ming army seems to be calling... Calling you to use your troops like a god!"
Ge Erdan laughed loudly: "Now they know how good I am, don't they?"
Ge Erdan's self-esteem has always been pretty good, otherwise he wouldn't have dared to surprise Zhu Heqi with only 2 people!
"Danjin Boshuo Ketuhan," another soldier reminded Ge Erdan, "They don't seem to know... because the last sentence is 'lose your wife and lose your army', adding one means that although you use soldiers Like a god, but this time I still lost my wife and lost my army!"
"What? What?" Ge Erdan became anxious when he heard it, "Why is there a wife? What does this matter have to do with Anu..."
"Danjin Boshuo Ketuhan, you forgot, but she has been a hostage in Beijing, and she is probably going to lose..."
Ge Erdan became even more anxious. Although he also knew that Anukodun might not be fished out, it was not a big deal after all. It was best not to say anything and just pretend nothing happened.
But which pot does this personal soldier not open and which pot to lift?This is not "pro" enough!
In addition, what did the Ming army mean by shouting this?
"Mr. Zhou, what do you think about this matter?" Ge Erdan remembered that he had hired a new military adviser at this moment, so he had to ask the military adviser.
"Ke Dun, Ke Dun..." How could Zhou Peigong do it?I had no choice but to say to Ge Erdan: "Why does a man have to worry about not having a wife? Without Anukodun, you can just marry a new Ketun!"
Ge Erdan glared at Zhou Peigong, "Military Master, who asked you this...I'm asking you if the Ming army knew we were coming? Did we fall into the trap?"
"It's a trick..." Zhou Peigong was reminded by Ge Erdan, and finally realized that something was wrong!
It feels so familiar!
This is a battle to be defeated, and it feels like a big defeat!
"No!" Zhou Peigong yelled immediately, "Danjin Boshuo Ketuhan, we have been tricked. There is no Zhu Heqi on Ulan Butong Mountain. We have been fooled. Hurry up and withdraw!"
Zhou Peigong is a "good at defeat" military adviser.When I was giving advice to Kangxi Khan back then, every time I planned it well, I always messed it up for one reason or another.
That familiar feeling of about to fail, and now it's back!
So the battlefield instinct told him that he was going to lose now!
Ge Erdan was still not reconciled, and still wanted to struggle, "No, can't it? The night attack has already succeeded..."
As soon as he said this, there were already dense and neat musket shots in front of him!
"Boom! Boom! Boom..."
The bursts of gunshots stopped, just like hitting the black!While the muskets were firing, Ge Erdan also heard the more intense roar of artillery!
It turned out that there were far more than one battalion of Ming army infantry hiding in those Ming army camps, but two infantry battalions plus an artillery company were hiding inside together.
Crowded is a little bit crowded, unable to set up a camp normally, but it can still be squeezed.
Among the dozen or so battalions on the battlefield, there are almost 1 infantry battalions stuffed there, and there are also a dozen artillery companies... The firepower of this force has far exceeded the more than [-] cavalry invested by Ge Erdan.
Ge Erdan also knew something was wrong, and quickly ordered the soldiers to blow the sound of retreating soldiers.
But the Junggar cavalry who had already rushed to the foot of Ulan Butong retreated before they could wait.The infantry of the Ming army guarding those camps had already formed up and came out to cut off the retreat of the Junggar cavalry.
I saw battalions of flintlock soldiers, armed with bayonet-mounted flintlock guns, drive out of their camps and set up hollow squares on the north bank of the Sarick River.Blocked the Junggar cavalry who wanted to retreat.
The two sides launched a fierce battle on the north bank of the Sarick River!
Relying on overwhelming firepower, Mingjun's infantry, supported by cannons, repelled several waves of attacks launched by the Junggar cavalry who wanted to flee!
Seeing this scene, Ge Erdan was a little at a loss, so he just asked Zhou Pei, "Mr. Zhou, Mr. Zhou, what should I do?"
But Zhou Peigong did not respond!
And at this moment, the [-] cavalry sent by Ge Erdan to detour had already encountered the guard cavalry, Sauron cavalry, and Balhu cavalry of the Ming army in the open area north of Ulan Butong Mountain!
These are shock cavalry riding on ocean horses, and now they are equipped with rocket launchers that can accompany the cavalry!
Before Ge Erdan's Junggar cavalry recovered their senses, the Ming army's rocket launchers roared towards them!
And when the rockets hit the heads of the Junggar cavalry, the bodyguard cavalry, Sauron cavalry, and Balhu cavalry began to launch wave after wave of wall charges with the collar as a unit.
They only saw a group of hundreds of them, lined up in two rows, rushing towards the loosely formed groups of Junggar cavalry in a dense formation.
The formation of the Junggar cavalry was already chaotic, but they were bombarded by rockets, and the cavalry group rushing to the front was already in chaos.Where can it withstand the attack of the Ming army's shock cavalry?The two sides were crushed as soon as they fought!
The Junggar cavalry who followed knew that they had fallen for the trick, so they turned their horses around without even thinking about fighting, and returned the same way.
Seeing his cavalry being driven towards the Sarick River by an unknown number of Ming cavalry, Ge Erdan was so anxious that he almost went crazy.
He brought a total of [-] cavalry this time.
Thirteen thousand of them were trapped on the north bank of the Sarik River, and there was no way to withdraw them.There are still [-] cavalry who are about to return in a big defeat... This is the rhythm of losing everything!
"Military division! Military division..."
Ge Erdan turned around and wanted to find Zhou Peigong, but Zhou Peigong, who was riding his horse and standing behind him just now, was gone now!
what 's wrong?
What about people?
