Although Alsileng Khan was a little unhappy after hearing Meng He's words, he still thought rationally and thought that it was indeed the case. Now Jia Ke did not suffer much loss. If the war continued, he might not only lose his troops, but also the food and grass in the rear.
I can't hold on any longer.
Maybe others don't know the specific situation, but Alsileng Khan knows his own affairs. The food and grass needed by these hundreds of thousands of soldiers are transported thousands of miles from the Western Regions. For such a long supply, ten carts of food arrived in Tartar.
There were only three vehicles left in the Tatar camp.
With such huge losses, Arslenkhan could barely support it by squeezing the Western Regions. If the stalemate continued, I am afraid that the Western Regions, which had just calmed down, would rebel again.
So Alsileng Khan could only nod helplessly.
Meng He saw that everyone was nodding in agreement with his words, so he continued: "I think Jia Ke's attack this time is probably because something happened in the rear, so he had to go out to fight us."
Alsileng Khan was a little surprised after hearing this: "In that case, isn't it the time for us to fight Jia Ke? As long as we hold Jie Ke down and there is another turmoil behind him, Jia Ke's defeat will not be far away."
After hearing this, Meng He shook his head, and then said solemnly: "Now is the most dangerous time for us. There are still tens of thousands of Jia Ke's cavalry on the grassland harassing everyone. Although our food roads can be preserved for the time being, it will be a long time."
I’m afraid I won’t be able to support it for a long time.”
When Meng He finished saying this, everyone remembered that there were tens of thousands of Jia Ke's cavalry roaming around on the grassland, ready to pounce and bite them at any time like hungry wolves.
Alsileng Khan also frowned and tightened. His Tatars had always fought guerrillas with others. This time Jia Ke sent out elite cavalry to fight guerrillas with him. Only now did he know that at that time
The troubles of those enemies.
"This cavalry is indeed annoying, but it is still not enough to make us retreat. If you have any ideas, Meng He, please tell us and let us know."
Meng He handed over his hand again and said to everyone in the battle: "This cavalry is indeed not enough to make us afraid, but what I am most worried about is Jia Ke. This Jia Ke is brave and good at fighting. Since his debut, he has been invincible and invincible in every battle."
Alsileng Khan also nodded when he heard this. He had personally experienced Jia Ke's power many times, and almost his life was in the hands of Jacket.
"This time when Jia Ke came to attack, we knew Jia Ke's determination. He actually waved his army and destroyed our stronghold in just a moment. Although I asked him to retreat temporarily, his main force has not been lost and his military morale is stable. If he continues to attack
, I’m afraid we really can’t stop him.”
After Meng He said these words, the tribesmen and generals in Tibet were a little frightened.
The battle this morning showed them how powerful Jia Ke was. If Meng He hadn't blocked Jia Ke, few of them would have been able to return to the grassland alive.
Alsileng Khan also began to sweat coldly. This time, because of his trump card of 5,000 armored cavalry, most of them were killed by the opponent's Mo Dao soldiers in the first formation. In the second formation, they were surrounded and killed by all the infantry led by Jia Ke. Every time he thought of this,
He felt frightened.
Alsileng Khan lowered his head and thought for a moment, knowing that he probably just wanted to stay and fight Jia Ke, and those below him had no intention of doing so.
"Meng He, what do you think we should do next?"
"Returning to the Great Khan, the general thinks that we should return to the grassland now and recuperate for a few years. Over the years, our warriors who have been fighting on the grassland are beginning to get tired. If this continues, the warriors will feel tired and will not
It’s easy to clean up.”
Alsileng Khan also nodded. In the past few years, he first fought for the Western Region, and now he has to fight against the Southern Dynasty. Although the warriors on the grassland are brave, they are also mentally exhausted.
And this time against Jia Ke is a proof. Although Jia Ke is brave, he also has hundreds of thousands of grassland cavalry under his command, and based on the Dazhai guards, he was defeated so easily by Jia Ke. This shows that the soldiers are no longer fighting to the death.
I have a counter-war mentality.
Although Alsileng Khan was reluctant, his reason still prevailed, "Meng He's plan is exactly what I want. Let's rest for three days and then retreat back to the grassland."
As soon as Alsileng Khan made his decision, the people below him also breathed a sigh of relief. These people have been fighting for many years, and now they also want to go home and see their children.
Alsileng Khan thought for a moment and then asked Meng He, "Now that Jia Ke is becoming more and more powerful, he is a serious problem for us Tatars. Meng He, do you have any way to defeat Jia Ke completely?"
Meng He scratched his head after hearing this. Jia Ke was cautious in his military use and brave in battle. It was almost impossible to defeat him on the battlefield.
And Jia Ke's foundation in the Southern Dynasties is becoming more and more stable, almost like a hedgehog with nowhere to start.
But Alsileng Khan had already asked, and he had to answer, so Meng He thought hard and finally said helplessly: "Our time to defeat Jia Ke has passed. If we attack him with all our strength when he is weak,
Maybe we can defeat Jia Ke, but now that Jia Ke has so many elite soldiers and generals, it is almost impossible to defeat him on the frontal battlefield."
Alsileng Khan was a little unhappy after hearing this, "Are we going to have to wait for Jia Ke to lead the soldiers and wipe out the grassland?"
Meng He said helplessly: "If we want to fight against Jia Ke, we can't fight him near the Southern Dynasties. We can only lure the enemy deep into the desert and lead Jia Ke into the desert, leaving him with insufficient food and grass and unfamiliar terrain. Finally, he will continue to harass him.
Let Jia Ke have a flaw before he can be defeated."
Alsileng Khan stood up and walked a few steps in the tent, then suddenly turned back and looked at Meng He with shining eyes: "The general's plan is exactly what I want. This time we go back to recuperate, and then continue to send out
The cavalry harassed Jia Ke's border, so Jia Ke finally couldn't bear it anymore and led his troops deep into the grassland. When the time comes, we will make it impossible for Jia Ke to come back."
After hearing what Alsileng Khan said, Meng He felt that he had taken it for granted. Now the troops on the nine sides of the southern border were very brave and good at fighting. Even if he sent people to harass them, he would probably lose more than the gain. In the end, no one would be anxious.
But Meng He did not dare to confront Alsileng Khan, so he could only stand there in silence.
The other tribesmen and generals in the big tent all thought that Arsleng Khan's plan was good, so they began to flatter him non-stop, making Arsleng Khan even more flattering.
Alsileng Khan was there, listening to the compliments from the people below with excitement. Suddenly he saw Meng He being silent there, and he immediately became a little sober. He was still far away from Jia Ke's army, so he was not happy.
when.
Alsileng Khan quickly ordered: "Immediately send out scouting horses to check on the situation of Jia Ke's army at any time. At the same time, all ministries are arranging their troops and preparing to return to the grassland in three days."
After everyone listened to Alsileng Khan's order, they responded with a bang.
Next, the Tatars sent out exploration horses and began to pack up their gear and prepare to retreat.
Besides, after Jia Ke led the army back to the camp, he was a little angry. He had never fallen into other people's tricks since he went to war. This time, he was tricked by Meng He, which was a shame.
Early on the next morning, Jia Ke immediately ordered the drums to be beaten to gather the generals, and all the generals from each department were found in the central army's tent.
Jia Ke sat in the middle and said to the crowd: "Yesterday we defeated the Tatar camp, but during the pursuit, I was a little negligent and fell into Meng He's plan. However, our losses were not big. I wanted to rest."
In a few days, we will attack again, and this time we must annihilate the entire Tatar army."
The generals below all nodded after hearing this. Yesterday's stop was originally going smoothly, but in the end they were tricked by Meng He, and they were all unconvinced.
Jia Ke saw that morale was still strong, so he then ordered: "Immediately send out scouting horses to find out the whereabouts of the Tatars. The other departments will rest up and wait for orders at any time to follow me out into battle."
Jia Ke is already a little frustrated now. On the surface, he doesn't seem to have suffered much loss this time, but Jia Ke's prestige has suffered a huge loss.
In the past, Jia Ke was an invincible god, but now people have discovered that the god in their eyes can also be defeated.
Although Jia Ke is now successful, he can still bear the loss of these prestige, but after all, no one wants to leave a stain.
What's more, Jia Ke's goal was to become the founding monarch of the country. He naturally wanted to leave a perfect life in history, but he didn't expect that a precedent would be set here today.
What's more, the affairs in the capital now make Jia Ke very worried. Originally, Jia Ke thought that the Tatars were just a group of bandits on the grassland, and it would be easy to defeat them. However, he did not expect that there are heroes on the grassland. If they cannot be defeated in a short time,
If Arslen Khan is defeated within a short period of time, then things in the capital will have to be left to Fan Kang's discretion.
In the next few days, the scouting horses sent by Alsileng Khan and Jia Ke fought hand to hand on the grassland with a radius of dozens of miles.
They tested each other, attacked each other, and sometimes hid from each other. As a result, those who originally snooped for information became the main force in the confrontation in these days.
When Alsileng Khan received the news that Jia Ke had sent out intensive detective horses, he kept snooping for intelligence on his side, and he knew that Jia Ke did not give up and wanted to continue the attack.
Alsileng Khan now admired Meng He a little, and it was just as he expected. In this case, he would retreat first. If Jia Ke came to attack, he would fight with him on the grassland. If he didn't attack, he would retreat back to rest.
So on the third day, Arsleng Khan led his army to break up camp and head for the northern grasslands.
This time it was Meng He who brought 50,000 cavalry to break the rear.
Naturally, such a big move by the Tatars could not be hidden from anyone. Jia Ke got the news not long after Alslen Khan left.
Jia Ke did not immediately order the troops to pursue him. Instead, he thought about it in the tent. Did the opponent really retreat, or did he leave an ambush for himself?
Finally, Jia Ke decided to test it out, so he sent his soldiers to send an order to Huang Baifeng, the military governor of Xuanfu Town, ordering him to take 10,000 cavalry from Xuanfu Town and 20,000 cavalry from the Zhongzhenglan Banner of the Eight Banners to immediately attack the Tatars.
Tartar.
The reason why Jia Ke sent Muren there was because he was very stable and would not easily fall into the enemy's tricks.
