"Mad! Old Li is fine, but he died in the hands of you Tatars." Thinking of Li Sanhe, Zug became very angry. He walked over to Baohurcha again and looked at him with evil intentions.
He held him for a moment, then raised his legs and kicked him several times.
"Ah——! Ah——!" Baohurcha screamed and rolled on the ground. At this time, he was extremely frightened. He was really afraid that these Han generals would torture him to death.
"Masters! I have always been kind to the Han people. Oh! Don't kick me! I have never taken advantage of the Han people. I am willing to serve you." Baohurcha lay on the ground and shouted at the top of his lungs.
After hearing the cry, Zug's heavy kicking actually stopped, and the generals of Pegasus Town in the big tent were looking at Baohurcha on the ground with great interest.
Seeing the expressions of Zug and the others, Baohurcha also felt a sense of hope in his heart: "I hope these vicious men will be proud of themselves! As long as their lives are spared, everything they want to do will be easy."
"Hey!" Zug smiled and pointed at Baohurca on the ground, and said to the other generals, "I didn't see it! This Tatar can not only speak Chinese, but he also speaks Chinese well?"
Zug's fuss immediately caused everyone to burst into laughter. When Baohuer heard that he had stopped kicking him violently for such a reason, he almost spat out blood. It turned out that these vicious men were
Playing like a clown.
Baohu Ercha is also the person in the tribe who receives the caravan. Of course he speaks Chinese well. But now is a life-and-death moment, and Baohu Ercha is not willing to waste time. Before Zug strikes again, Baohu Ercha
Ercha spoke very quickly: "Masters! The younger one can appease the people in the tribe and avoid causing trouble to the masters; the younger one can also manage the shepherds, cattle and sheep for the masters; the younger one even knows the tribes nearby.
Distribution, I am willing to lead the way for you."
"Huh?" Zug and the others looked at each other and immediately became very interested.
To be honest, Zug and the others really haven't figured out how to deal with these prisoners and captures.
This time, Pegasus Town captured more than 6,000 people in Qingbi Lake, and some of the herdsmen here also took advantage of the chaos to escape. However, the cattle, sheep and horses grazing here basically fell into the hands of Pegasus Town.
in hand.
Among Mongolian tribes, gold, silver, wealth, silk and other things are basically concentrated in the hands of a few nobles. The common property of the tribe is these cattle, sheep and horses. A rough calculation shows that the number of cattle seized in Pegasus Town this time
There are more than 2,000 head, nearly 50,000 sheep, and over a thousand horses. Judging from the number, it is indeed a brilliant victory.
But we must also understand that there are 20,000 riders in Pegasus Town's expedition this time. If these prisoners are escorted and captured back, not to mention the walking speed, even in the nearly one month on the way back, they will eat at least
Twenty thousand sheep.
Moreover, most of the captives in Pegasus Town were old and weak Mongolian women and children. And most of the young and strong men escaped. If the Mongolian tribe could quickly gather a large army and follow Pegasus Town in pursuit, if something happened
In the battle, regardless of whether these cattle, sheep and horses can be saved, at least the battle damage to Pegasus Town is not worth the value of these seizures.
There is another point that is more important. The expedition to Pegasus Town was to attack the Mongolian forces who were pro-Manchu. However, the current results did not hurt these Mongolian tribes at all. Therefore, although the seizures were rich, they always made people feel a little bit picky.
They lost the sesame seeds but lost the watermelons. So in their hearts, Zug and others still wanted to expand their victory.
Of course, you can also use a very cruel method, which is to kill all the chickens and dogs as you did when you first set off. But this always feels a little hurtful, so Zug and the others also want to hear it, including
What good tricks does Huercha have?
"Then tell me, what should we do? If you say it well, I will spare your life." Zug said with a cruel smile at Baohurcha.
"Master! You can separate the men and women in the tribe. The warriors of the tribe can go out with the master to clear the way for him. The rest of the people can stay here and look after the cattle and sheep for the master.
Wait until the masters come back victorious and then take all the cattle and sheep back." Since he had been raped, Baohurcha decided to risk his life.
When Zug thought about it, Baohurcha's idea was not bad. This method was actually to separate the families of the Mongolian herdsmen. Pegasus Town would separate the families of the Mongolian herdsmen. If the Mongolian herdsmen who accompanied the fight rebelled, they would be killed and left in Qingbi Lake.
If the Mongols who stayed in Qingbi Lake rebelled, the men in their family would be in the hands of Pegasus Town. Moreover, Pegasus Town would also have an extra group of Mongolian cannon fodder.
"So where are we going to attack next?" Zug then asked. He wanted to get more useful things from Baohurcha.
"In my humble opinion, you guys should go to the northwest. There are the Chahar Tribe and the Tumut Tribe there. The Chahar Tribe was originally the location of the Mongolian Khanate, and the Tumut Tribe is closest to Datong. These two
The tribes are all the richest tribes in Mongolia. If you leave, you will definitely gain a lot." Baohurcha replied. And Baohurcha's words are not wrong, but he also has some thoughts of moving the disaster eastward. After all, he
I also don’t want to harm the Horqin tribe’s herdsmen any more.
"Hmph!" Zug suddenly saw through Baohurcha's little thoughts. He kicked Baohurcha again and shouted: "You are not honest now! The king's account of your Horqin tribe is not in the official position.
North direction?"
"Ahem!" Baohurcha coughed heavily, and then quickly explained: "Most of the people who escaped here today fled to the royal tent. So if the gentlemen go to conquer, maybe they
We had already prepared for it. If we attack to the northwest, we can catch the Chahar tribe and the Tumote tribe by surprise. Also, the people in this small tribe are also from the Horqin tribe, so if they encounter me
The clan members may defect before the battle, and that will ruin things for you!"
"Hmph! If you don't tell the truth from now on, I will kick you to death." Hearing that what Baohuercha said made sense, Zug stopped caring about it. He dropped Baohuercha on the ground.
Ercha summoned the generals and began to discuss the next military action.
…
Horqin Beile Tulishen led the army for the first time. He was high-spirited and full of confidence. Tulishen's two sisters were married to the brothers Huang Taiji and Dorgon respectively, and one sister, Dayu'er, is now the Queen Mother of the Qing Dynasty. Therefore,
, he not only had a high status among the Mongolian tribes, but also had a high status in the Qing Dynasty.
This time, after hearing that the tribe in Qingbi Lake in the south was attacked by the Han army in the Central Plains, the leaders of the Horqin tribe who gathered together were also shocked. However, according to the news reported by the herdsmen who escaped back, Prince Horqin and others thought that this was the case.
It was just an accident. After all, Qingbi Lake is too close to the Great Wall.
Prince Horqin and others also quickly analyzed that the Daping Army's expedition was nothing more than to contain the Mongolian tribes' troops and prevent them from reinforcing Liaodong. This made them feel a little contemptuous, and a little angry in their contempt.
.Why are the Han troops passing through the customs so insignificant? They did not dare to fight the Qing Dynasty's athletes head-on, but instead came to harass the Mongolian herdsmen who were grazing?
An army that only dares to do such sneaky things is definitely not a strong army. Moreover, they also found out that this Han army has one person and multiple riders. It is said that it is an army of tens of thousands, but in fact it only has a few thousand people at most.
Sadly, Prince Horqin and others did not know that the Mongolian herdsmen only encountered the Daping Army in one direction, so the number of troops they observed was wrong. Even a few herdsmen correctly named Pegasus Town.
The strength of the troops was also judged by Prince Horqin and others to be an illusion caused by panic.
Therefore, amidst the public anger, the Horqin tribe successfully ignited the raging anger. The Horqin tribe now has strong soldiers and horses, and the core troops have been trained in the Qing army. In addition, because the leaders of each affiliated tribe have brought their own
The personal guard troops were coming to the king's tent to discuss matters, so there was no need to go to the nearby tribes to summon them. The Horqin tribe could gather 20,000 control strings.
However, Prince Horqin was quite cautious. He asked his eldest son, Horqin Beltulishen, to lead eight thousand elite soldiers as the vanguard. He then sent out the king's orders to summon nearby tribes to gather together, and then personally led the main force to encircle and suppress the army.
From this order, we can see what kind of attitude the Horqin Department has towards Pegasus Town.
Prince Horqin and others all believed that Pegasus Town’s attack to the north was just to take advantage of its own tribe’s unpreparedness to do something secretive. Therefore, Pegasus Town may have already escorted the prisoners and captured them back to the Central Plains.
.
Therefore, Horqin's tribal army just wanted to pursue it, but it might be too late. Then let Tulishen make a run for it! For Tulishen, being able to drive the Han army back to the Central Plains is always a great achievement, even if
He did not kill any Han soldiers.
It was this Han army that was confused and wanted to fight hard with Tuli. With these eight thousand eagles, what else could not be handled cleanly? Prince Horqin completely regarded this expedition as a way to enhance the reputation of Horqin Beltuli.
Worth it.
"Tell them that as long as you win the battle, you can distribute 20% of the captured goods. The merits of killing can also be converted into population, cattle and sheep. If not, all the family members will be killed. And one more thing, those who have achieved enough merits
, the whole family can go to the Central Plains and join our Chinese clan. The same goes for the war dead. I just want to give you a face, I will see if they can do it this time!" Zug said to Baohurcha.
"Yes! Master! Thank you for your mercy!" Baohurcha, who had a bruised nose and swollen eyes, nodded and bowed to Zug, and then started to translate to the more than 600 Mongolian herdsmen standing in front of him.
The Mongolian herdsmen who were used as cannon fodder were originally listless, but when they heard Baohurcha's translation, these herdsmen immediately widened their eyes and became energetic. I don't know who made the first statement.
Cheers, soon the cheers of the Mongolian herdsmen filled the air.
