As the good news came one after another, the entire capital was plunged into a sea of celebration.
Everyone rushed to tell each other in the streets and alleys, and the good news quickly spread throughout the streets and alleys of the capital.
"The Ming Dynasty will surely win!"
Such shouts kept ringing out, one after another, one after another, like the side of a wave, constantly echoing.
It spread from the streets and alleys of the capital to the depths of the imperial palace in the capital, and from the depths of the palace back to the streets and alleys of the capital. Countless people shouted together, shouting with joy.
They firmly believe that Ming Dynasty will win.
But without hearing the exact news, everyone was still worried.
Now the good news came one after another, and the three armies blossomed together. Each army killed tens of thousands of enemies. This was an unprecedented victory, and the rocks that everyone was hanging on were also put down heavily.
At this moment, the Ming Dynasty's belief in victory became even stronger, and everyone's shouts became even louder, overwhelming the clouds and resounding throughout the sky.
"Sure enough, money is the most powerful source of motivation and the most incredible thing!"
At Liu Jin's house, Liu Jin also knew the news immediately. He looked at the map of the Ming Dynasty and couldn't help but think so.
In Liu Jin's view, with the current situation of the Ming Dynasty's army, it is almost impossible to win this battle. The only way may be to use money to stimulate. Only free money can reverse the situation.
Qiankun.
"I don't know if we can catch the little prince this time."
Liu Jin did a little calculation and found that all three armies were in full bloom. The army on the east route killed 25,000 enemies, on the west route it was 20,000, and on the south route it was 30,000. This totaled to almost 80,000.
This time the little prince went south, claiming to have an army of one million, but in fact there were only 120,000. Most of these 120,000 were temporarily recruited from the herdsmen. The real elite soldiers were under the command of Dayan Khan himself.
There are only less than 20,000 fine cavalry.
The three armies of the Ming Dynasty bloomed together and killed almost 80,000 enemies. If there is no water in them, this means that the main force of the little prince going south this time has been completely wiped out, leaving only less than 40,000 troops.
If the three armies could quickly gather together and surround the little prince with 40,000 troops, it might be possible to capture the little prince alive.
In fact, the little prince at this time fell into a place of life and death just as Liu Jin expected.
In the golden tent of the little prince Dayan Khan, when the little prince listened to the report of his men, his eyes widened with an expression of disbelief.
"Hukou Pass was captured by the Ming army~"
"The Sunit tribe was completely wiped out by the Ming army~"
"The Hani tribe was completely wiped out by the Ming army~"
"Here in the south, the 30,000-strong army led by my favorite son was also completely wiped out. Not even his son escaped."
Is this still the Ming army he knows?
He couldn't believe all this, and ordered several messengers to be killed one after another.
"What exactly is going on?"
Dayan Khan looked at his men in the golden tent, his eyes were dull. In just a blink of an eye, the 80,000 troops he brought were gone?
It was deathly quiet in the golden tent. The troops under Dayan Khan's own command had not yet encountered the Ming army, and no one had yet figured out what had happened.
But the bad news coming one after another, coupled with the fact that Dayan Khan was in anger and killed the messenger soldiers one after another, made everyone stay silent, no one dared to say anything at this time.
"Great Khan, let's retreat to the grassland first."
After a while, Altan, Dayan Khan's most respected general, said.
At this time, if they continue to stay in the Ming Dynasty, they will most likely not be able to go back. The three armies of the Ming Army will definitely come towards Dayan Khan's headquarters to surround them at this moment.
Once the three armies are encircled, even if the troops are elite and powerful, who can know what is going on with these Ming troops. Suddenly, as the messenger said, they are like demons from hell.
Extremely terrifying.
"withdraw?"
Like a gambler who lost a bet, Dayan Khan's eyes turned blood red and he looked at Altan.
He was unwilling to give in. Originally, this trip south was very smooth. He successfully opened the gap from Hukou Pass and successfully entered the colorful world of the Central Plains.
In this colorful world, they burned, killed and looted wantonly, enjoying the fruits of victory.
Dayan Khan even wanted to point his sword at the capital, the heart of the Ming Dynasty. He had already heard about the prosperity and wealth of the capital of the Ming Dynasty. If he could capture the capital of the Ming Dynasty, there would be countless wealth, and he could even regain it.
The glory of that year has returned to the flower-like land of the Central Plains.
However, they had not enjoyed enough, and they had not rushed to buy. In just a blink of an eye, the 80,000 troops they had brought were gone.
Go back now?
Dayan Khan's majesty will be wiped out. The next time he went south, not only did he not plunder enough supplies and let everyone enjoy the fruits of victory, but he also lost his troops and suffered heavy losses.
The prestige that Dayan Khan had finally built up would be gone in an instant, and without these 80,000 troops, what would he do to rule the vast grassland?
When the time comes, it's hard to say whether the tribes under my control will still listen to me.
However, if we do not withdraw and continue to fight the Ming army here to the end, the remaining 40,000 troops of our headquarters may all be left here. No one knows what is going on with these Ming troops.
In the past, I was as weak as a lamb. I only dared to hide on the tall city walls and did not dare to go out to fight in the field.
But this time, they dared to go out to fight in the field. What's even more incredible is that they actually won the battle and ate up their 80,000 troops. What on earth happened?
Soon, Dayan Khan regained his composure.
He knew that it was useless to be angry or unwilling to do anything now. What happened could not be changed, but the future could still be controlled in his own hands.
It must be withdrawn.
This is the best and wisest choice.
He also has 40,000 elite men and horses from his tribe. These are the men and horses of his own tribe. As long as he has these 40,000 elite men and horses in hand, when he returns to the grassland, he will still be the eagle on the grassland, and he will still be the Dayan respected by everyone.
sweat.
If you continue to fight here and lose your troops and suffer heavy losses, then the grassland will be in turmoil. The tribes under your control will inevitably dissatisfy your rule. In addition, there is also your mortal enemy Wala. Even if you can return to the way,
If you live on the grassland, it will be difficult to live a good life.
"Withdraw~"
"Evacuate to Hukou Pass~"
Dayan Khan gave the order coldly.
When the generals in the golden tent heard this, they all breathed a sigh of relief. Then they left one after another and began to arrange the troops under their respective command to prepare for the evacuation.
However, it is very simple and easy when you are in person, but it is quite troublesome to evacuate, because at this moment, everyone from Dayan Khan to every ordinary grassland person has a lot of loot.
Dayan Khan's men presented Dayan Khan with cart after cart of gold and silver jewelry, rare treasures, and a huge number of beauties from the Central Plains. Ordinary grassland people originally had two war horses per person, but now one
The war horse was ridden by himself, and the other horse was filled with trophies.
There were their favorite iron pots, as well as the food they needed most for the winter, as well as tea, salt, cloth, etc., as long as they could be useful, they grabbed them all. Once they grabbed them, they were ready to take them back to the grassland and pile them on their horses.
Very, very high. Some prairie people even snatched beautiful women and wanted to take them back to the prairie.
Because of the drag of these things, the evacuation speed of Dayan Khan's 40,000 troops has become very slow. They come and go like the wind, and their return is as slow as a snail, even though the leaders above have repeatedly emphasized
, try to get rid of something as much as possible.
But no one paid attention to it at all, because these leaders also had a lot of things, and the carriages were filled with the trophies of these leaders, and these leaders were equally reluctant to part with them.
The entire evacuation team became sluggish, with little efficiency and speed, and could not advance many kilometers in a day.
On the other side, the three armies of the Ming Army were on the road day and night. Those who had captured the Tatar war horses directly mounted their horses and galloped towards Dayan Khan's headquarters to pursue them.
Those who ran without horses were also very fast, scrambling for the first place, not afraid of hardship or fatigue, because everyone wanted to kill more Tatars and get more silver.
One hundred taels of silver for a Tatar's head. If you miss such a good opportunity, you won't be able to get it if you want it in the future.
Some people have killed several Tatars and made hundreds of taels of silver, but they still feel it is not enough. Some people have not killed a single Tatar. Their eyes are red with anxiety and they wish they could grow wings and catch up with Dayan Khan's headquarters.
Centaur.
Even those without horses still worked tirelessly to pursue Dayan Khan's men and horses, scrambling for the first place, as if they were afraid of losing.
In just a few days, the vanguard troops of the three armies from the East, West and South had already joined together and had already firmly grasped Dayan Khan's troops, following them like a shadow, quietly waiting for the moment of the final decisive battle.
