Where there are abundant water and grass, the yurts of herders are always indispensable.

Because the Chahar tribe's army had an army of five or six thousand people, the herdsmen within a radius of hundreds of miles left the grassland with their families and cattle and sheep.

"General, I discovered the army with the tiger flag." A Mongolian soldier covered in blood came to the yurt.

A big bearded Mongolian inside the yurt frowned and asked, "How many have you come? How far is it from the army?"

"The six or seven thousand people are all infantrymen, about thirty miles away, but the other side sent a lot of whistle cavalry, and their subordinates risked their lives to find out the scale of the enemy." The Mongolian soldiers replied.

The bearded Mongolian nodded.

The Mongolian soldiers who delivered the letter were soon taken away to treat their injuries.

The bearded Mongolian was the commander of the soldiers around Hutuktu and the commander of this Chahar army.

"The tiger flag is all infantry, and the number is similar to ours. How do you think of this battle?" Sugar, a bearded Mongolian, asked several other Taiji and the thousand-man commander in the yurt.

One of them, Taji, named Chaktai, spoke first, and said, "It's just a few thousand infantrymen. Are we Mongolian warriors still afraid that they will not succeed? This is a grassland and there is no city wall to support them."

"You can't say that," said another Taiji Hutuke: "The infantry of the Tiger Flag is different from the Ming army. They are not weak, otherwise the Tiger Flag's convoy would have been stolen many times over the years."

Chaktai, who was refuted, snorted and said, "That's why our Chahar tribe's warriors didn't take action, otherwise there would be no tiger-shaped flag today."

When the tiger flag convoy was traveling to and from the grassland, it was robbed by many horse bandits.

Among them were real horse bandits, as well as horse bandits dressed in Mongols. However, after none of these horse bandits succeeded, several powerful tribes on the grassland had the idea of ​​robbing the caravan of the tiger-shaped flag.

There were too many casualties and injuries, even if the convoy's cargo was stolen, it would be more than worth the loss for these large tribes.

"The Korqin tribe and Dajin had no idea of ​​playing the Tiger Flag Convoy back then, but you don't know what the final result was." Hutuke said.

Chaktai curled his lips disdainfully and said, "What's the Korqin tribe? If it weren't for the support of the big gold, we Chahar would have cleaned them up long ago."

"Even if Korqin is not good, don't forget that the Khan sent someone to deal with the tiger flag before, but later he didn't get any benefits." Hutuke reminded.

As early as shortly after the Tiger Flag occupied the territory of the Mot tribe, Chahar used troops against the Tiger Flag in the name of revenge for Bu Shitu, the leader of the Tumer tribe.

Chaketai said: "I knew what happened last time. The people with the Tiger Flag rely on the Dunbao to defend it. Now these infantrymen of the Tiger Flag are all on the grassland. There is no Dunbao to rely on. Are our Mongol cavalry still afraid that they can't deal with the thousands of infantrymen of the Tiger Flag?"

The two of them started arguing with each other.

As the main general, Sugar spoke, "Okay, don't fight anymore. We were originally ordered by the Khan to deal with the soldiers and horses on the grassland with the tiger flag. Now that the other party has taken the initiative to send troops, if anyone thinks to go back like this, even if I don't do anything to you, Khan will never let you go."

As he said that, he looked at Hutuke.

He is the one who has always been clamoring for the powerful tiger flag.

Hutuke noticed Sugar's gaze looking at him and defended himself: "I didn't say I wanted to retreat, but I just hope to get more information about the enemy. In the words of the Ming people, only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you win every battle."

"Our whistleblower has been clearly stated. There are only five or six thousand infantrymen in front of the army." Chaktai interjected.

The chief general Sugar said: "What Hutuke said is not unreasonable. I will send more sentry whistles around to find out the scale of the tiger-shaped army in front of me and whether there are their reinforcements around."

"The army of tiger flags has reached its nose. If you send a surveillance to investigate the situation, will it take too much time?" Chaketai said with a frown.

"Geng Qianhu, Lord Mantu ordered you to fight out quickly." A flag soldier sent by Mantu came to bring Mantu's orders to Geng Qianhu.

Geng Qianhu looked at the flag soldiers of the Zhengbai Banner in front of him and said with a flattering look: "Please tell Lord Mantu, and then lead the troops out of the camp."

"You'd better be quicker, Lord Mantu's patience is limited." The flag soldier warned with a condescending warning, and then turned and left.

Geng Qianhu kept watching the flag soldier away with his eyes before retracting his eyes.

He looked at the Han army beside him and said loudly: "Brothers, if you want to survive, follow me to fight out. Whoever dares to retreat in the face of the battle? Even if I don't move you, the flag soldiers will not let you go."

"We listen to the general and fight out."

"Yes, let's fight out together."

Several Han soldiers arranged by Geng Qianhu in the crowd yelled.

Many Han soldiers were immediately bewitched and began to yell and fight out of the camp.

Seeing that the morale was available, Geng Qianhu immediately raised the weapon in his hand and shouted loudly: "Brothers, follow me to kill!"

After saying that, he rushed out toward the camp gate.

kill!

Led by their respective flag whistles and small flags, hundreds of Han troops rushed out of the camp and rushed towards the tiger-shaped flag soldiers outside the camp.

"This Han general still seems to have some skills." Mantu watched a group of desperate Han troops rush out of the camp, nodded with satisfaction, and then said to several subordinates around him, "Bring people with me and follow me."

He didn't care whether the Han army could kill the enemies who retreated to the camp.

These Han troops were originally used to consume the enemy's power, so he and the remaining flag soldiers had the opportunity to take advantage of the enemy's chance to attract most of the attention of the Han army and kill them in one fell swoop.

As long as the enemy cannot exert the power of the firearm, he is confident that he can kill Nikan outside the camp with a knife.

As long as he can rush to Nikan, he believes that the final victory belongs to Dajin.

As soon as the Han army left the camp, it immediately became the target of artillery attack.

However, the tiger flag brought not many cannons, and the damage to the Han army was limited.

Even so, the Han army almost defeated several times, but the Eight Banners soldiers who followed behind stopped the Han army that wanted to flee and forced the Han army to continue to rush forward.

Even if you die, these Han soldiers will die on the way to block the Eight Banners soldiers who followed behind.

The Han army was more and more casualties, but the line set up by the tiger flag was getting closer and closer, and it was even less than a hundred steps away.

But there were four or five hundred Han soldiers left, and there were only a few dozen Han soldiers killed and injured under the gun at most, less than a hundred.

The Mantu, who was following the Han army, showed joy.
