826 All People Are Soldiers

Sun Chuanting led the army to set off, but the common people who came to join the war spontaneously, even if they were known to themselves, needed people from the government to organize them. Moreover, it was not easy to organize such a thing.

Sun Chuanting gave this task to Li Yan.

In the past, Li Yan had been acting as Sun Chuanting's staff for most of the time. Now that he was entrusted with the important task by Sun Chuanting, he immediately awakened his spirit.

Fortunately, he was born in Juren, but he has been on the battlefield for a long time, and he is not an armchair strategist in the military. He is not without a clue when it comes to handling this matter.

According to Guan Nei's terminology, these are Minzhuang, and they are also the kind of force.

In fact, when the grassland tribes fought in the past, they actually used the tribe's standing army as the backbone, and then ordinary herdsmen rushed in to fight.

These ordinary herdsmen in front of us were the so-called Mongolian troops in the past.

Not to mention how high their military quality is, but they still have individual skills in horseback riding, archery, and some simple military common sense.

Faced with such a group, Li Yan saw the people who were still coming in a steady stream, so he made up a jingle and asked his men to repeat it on the road, so that people could hear and understand it when they went west.

His jingle is simple and easy to understand. It also includes the following instructions: forming a formation and not leaving the team, bringing your own dry food and not causing confusion, leaving passages between each formation, having a place to eat, drink, and relax, etc.

The requirements for them should not be too high. After all, they are just temporarily on the battlefield.

Of course, their pressure will not be very high.

The more than 10,000 regular troops who originally guarded the prisoners during the road construction were replaced by strong people like them. The number of cavalry on the front line reached 130,000, while the enemy only had about 100,000.

There are definitely not many enemies who can break through the blockade of the imperial army and come to the rear. If you hit one out of ten, you can kill those who slip through the net with random punches.

Not to mention, this may not happen yet.

This view, as time passed and towards evening, Li Yan became even more firm in this view.

Because, except for the elderly and children who really can't move, all the people here in the Hetao Plain came here.

At least two hundred thousand people strong, two hundred thousand!

It can even be said that by tomorrow, there may be more!

On the grassland, all the people are soldiers, it’s really not just what they say!

While shocking Li Yan, it also gave him a profound understanding of the grassland peoples.

……………………

Besides, on the western tribal coalition side and the Chinese army Gushi Khan's side, they couldn't help but be overjoyed after receiving the news sent by forward Baturhun Khan.

As the commander-in-chief of the army for half his life, he led Washu to defeat the Mobei tribe who had been suppressing Washu before, revived the glory of Washu, and also led the Heshuote tribe to attack the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and established the Heshuote Khanate.

, he is definitely a powerful hero!

For him, when marching and fighting, knowing oneself and the enemy is definitely a principle engraved in his bones.

The news about Batur Huihan naturally made him very happy, and he became more confident about the war in Guihua City.

The Great Khan of Yarkand and Khabarov of Tsarist Russia were very happy to know about this situation. Especially Khabarov, who was regretting that he could not go to the Land of Abundance to grab a piece, heard that the other side of Guihua City was Saigon.

When I went to Jiangnan and became very wealthy, I was overjoyed.

It can be said that the morale of the entire army suddenly became higher because of the news about Baturhun Khan.

Many people were talking excitedly while rushing on their way.

"Gushi Khan is indeed the greatest Khan in our Wazi! Listen to the words of the Great Khan, we will be invincible!"

"That's of course. Look at us following Gushi Khan, first attack Qinghai, and then go to Tibet. We won't be invincible!"

"I guess the Ming Dynasty was fooled by Gushi Khan, thinking that we were attacking Ming Dynasty's Sichuan and Shaanxi, but we didn't expect that what our main force was actually attacking was Guihua City!"

"Haha, I've been thinking about it. When our army suddenly hits Guihua City, will the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty panic? If he is not careful again, Gushi Khan leads us to the capital of the Ming Dynasty.

They’ll probably pee in fear, right?”

"I haven't mentioned it yet. I think back then, we, the Grand Master of Wa Ci, led an army to the capital of the Ming Dynasty and almost destroyed the Ming Dynasty!"

"Maybe this time, Gushi Khan can take us a step further. What if we destroy the Ming Kingdom? Haha!"

"..."

Most of the Mongolians began to fantasize about seizing the Central Plains again, while the Tsarist Russian soldiers fantasized about plundering this rich eastern country and how they would be warmly welcomed by the Tsar when they returned home after making a fortune.

However, what they never expected was that things would change dramatically the next day.

Of course, ordinary soldiers are not qualified to know, that is, Gushi Khan and others received follow-up news from Baturhun Khan.

"What?" Even the wise and powerful Gushi Khan couldn't help but be shocked. Looking at the Jungar tribesman who reported the news, that is, Baturhun Khan's most valued son Sengge, he shouted coldly, "Previously

The Wasi people who provided the information escaped? The information they said may not be true?"

Originally, those Ming troops who stayed at night were members of the Heshuote tribe and the Dulbert tribe. This made Gushi Khan believe that they had betrayed the Ming Dynasty and surrendered to him again when the army arrived.

It was indeed reasonable. Therefore, he felt that the news was true.

Unexpectedly, it was only the next day that things would change so much.

Regarding this situation, even he himself was a little shocked for a moment.

What to do next?

This is a problem!

Since those Ming troops escaped at night, their words cannot be trusted! Everything about Guihua City has returned to the situation they learned about before.

Of course, some details can actually be verified as true or false if they are verified with each other.

However, this should not have much impact on the overall situation!

The most important thing is that those Ming troops who escaped at night will definitely report the news here.

Thinking of this, Gushi Khan said to the leaders of the tribes around him: "According to Baturhun Khan's wish, the whole army will speed up the march and kill the Ming army in Guihua City before they can react. What do you think?"

"Then why are you hesitating? Just kill them directly!" Khabarov answered first, "We have 100,000 men, such a powerful force, just push it. Anyway, there is no danger to defend on the grassland, there are so many people,

If we have strong troops, we can’t give them a chance!”

Tsarist Russia had wars with Sweden and the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, and rarely had such a large force. The Tsar gave him 10,000 troops at a time, also because of his desire for the wealth of the East!

Therefore, Khabarov did not want anything else but just wanted to grab things!

However, Ye Erqiang Khan said hesitantly: "If we fight directly, what if there are many Ming troops? Will there be any problems?"

Hearing this, Sengge immediately sneered and said: "The Ming Dynasty has a lot of troops, how many are they?"

If it were any other messenger, he would not be qualified to speak in front of other Khans, but Sengge, as the next Jungar Khan, is qualified to do so.

At this time, I heard that he did not wait for Yerqiang Khan to respond, and continued to ask quickly: "To the east, there are Qing and Japanese coalition forces, which have been attacking the Ming Dynasty since last year. To the west, we are in Sichuan and Shaanxi

When we launch an offensive, no matter how big the Ming Dynasty is, how many troops can be stationed here in Guihua City?"

The strategy set by Gushi Khan was originally to divide the Ming Dynasty's troops, and then concentrate the main force to attack Guihua City, connect with the eastern allies, and threaten the northern border of the Ming Dynasty.

His reason was actually these words of Seng Ge. When Gushi Khan said these things, Yarkand Khan also agreed.

Therefore, when Sengge said these words again at this time, Yarkand Khan was speechless.

Even Gushi Khan at this time still believed in his own judgment. Seeing Yerqiang Khan's embarrassed look, he said: "So far, the general situation should not have changed. Those Ming army nights

The episodes that are not closed can only affect the local area. For example, the Ming army in Guihua City will prepare for the battle in advance, and then ask for help from other Ming armies, etc. "

Having said this, he glanced at the tribal leaders in front of him, and then continued in a positive tone: "Therefore, Ben Khan believes that Eqirtu Khan's suggestion is very reasonable and cannot give too much response to the Ming army in Guihua City.

time. Maybe even the Ming army over there in Guihua City is in chaos after receiving the news!"

"So, let's attack them as soon as possible, while they are still in chaos and have no chance to recover, so we can defeat them more easily!" After hearing this, Seng Ge quickly responded with clenched fists, telling Gu what his father said to him.

Shihan and the others repeated it.

From a common sense perspective, there is indeed no problem with this inference. Of course, the premise of this is that the assumptions they used to make the inference are all correct.

Ye Erqiang Khan thought for a while, then nodded in agreement, there was no problem.

When Gushi Khan saw this, he made a prompt decision and issued a military order to speed up the entire army and march eastward.

By the next day, the main force had caught up with the forward. In other words, the forward had stopped and was waiting for the main force.

Seeing the arrival of the army, the forward coach Baturhui Khan rushed over immediately, greeted Gushi Khan and others, and said with a serious expression: "About twenty miles ahead, the Ming Dynasty built cities, piers, etc.

Wait. Also, the Ming army is also waiting there!"

Hearing this, Gushi Khan and others were very surprised. This place is still quite far away from Guihua City. The Ming army built the city here?

With this question in mind, he quickly asked Batur Huihan: "Do you know how many troops there are in the Ming army?"

This question is very critical!
