Zhu Zhanji and his group took advantage of the night to sneak around the Tartar camp. Along the way, they even dealt with two groups of Tartar scouts.
" Let's go, Your Highness. The Tartars don't have any lights. They must be fast asleep…"
" Let's charge over, Your Highness. These sentries will all be taken down in a rain of arrows…"
Zhu Zhanji rolled his eyes. This group of people had become reckless after winning the battle.
"What about the hundreds of thousands of people on the other side? How do you plan to fight?"
Qi Wei chuckled." Your Highness, let's give them more bait like before. Then, we'll lure them out wave by wave. They won't be able to catch up to us anyway!"”
"Where are we going to find croton now…Even if we have croton, we can't just stuff it into their mouths.”
Yu Chengtai smiled and presented the treasure." Your Highness, we've brought the flour mixed with spices. There are still hundreds of packets…This flour is good in the eyes of the Tartars. Ordinary people can't eat it!"”
Zhu Zhanji's eyes lit up. Now that they all had the talent of danger perception, it was not difficult for them to sneak in and figure out the situation of the Tartar camp. Then, they directly charged towards the grain storage. They set fire to the original grain of the Tartars and threw the flour that was filled upwind...
Then, he would kite the pursuers…Perfect!
"Find a few clever ones to sneak in and find the place where the Tartars store their grain. Also, find out the situation inside…"
……
After about two hours, those who had sneaked in to investigate returned.
"Your Highness, the defense at the north of the Tartar camp is very lax…"
" There are two grain storage points. One is in the west to supply the ordinary troops, and the other is in the northeast. They are placed together with the armaments to supply the Tartar nobles and generals…"
"There are still some small round shields in the Tartars 'weapons…"
" There aren't many guards. Many of the wagons are new, and many of them are tied up properly. I guess that the Tartars will continue to retreat north tomorrow morning and won't stay here for long…"
They couldn't let them run too far. The main force of the Ming army was mainly infantry. How long would they have to chase them? How much military rations would 500,000 people need to eat?
He had to stall them and create an opportunity for the army to wipe them out!
" Your Highness," Chang Sheng suggested," can we send the things in quietly and charge in directly? Wouldn't we draw out the large group of Tata cavalrymen?"”
" Oh my, you damn eunuch, you really know how to come up with bad ideas. If we alarm the Tartars, our brothers inside won't be able to come out. We can only rely on our fast horses and run after a wave. They won't be able to catch up at all…"
"We've already won two big battles, why are you still so cowardly…"
Once a person's temperament was formed, it was very difficult to change. Everyone was different. Chang Sheng was timid... Maybe it was an occupational disease!
Zhu Zhanji drew a line on the map.
"Stop arguing. We'll go around to the north and quietly approach the camp. We'll charge in from the north and kill our way out from the east.”
Zhu Zhanji continued to instruct,"When you burn the rations, burn their weapons, especially their shields!"”
"Yes, sir!"
……
It was originally a big tent in Yashili.
Because the previous tents had been abandoned, the tents in Benyashri were only slightly better than ordinary herdsmen. They were all makeshift tents.
"Dammit, is there still no news from Ha 'er Dadai?”Ben Yashili asked in exasperation.
"Great Khan, the scouts have not returned yet!”
"Then continue to send more scouts to find out what happened to Ha 'er Dadai. Did he encounter the pursuit of the main Ming army or was he ambushed by the enemy?!”
" Yes, Great Khan…" Before he could finish his sentence, he heard the sound of heavy horse hooves, followed by the sound of fighting.
"Enemy attack ~"
"The Ming army launched a sneak attack!"
"Hurry up and blow the horn…"
"Put out the fire, quickly put out the fire…"
"Quickly put on your clothes and pick up your weapons to fight…"
……
Benyashili strode out of the tent and shouted at the patrol officer,""Where is the Ming army? How many people came?"
" Great Khan, the Ming army has more than four hundred cavalrymen. They charged into the camp from the north with one man and two horses. They went straight to the rations without a care. They ran away after setting fire…"
Benyashili was furious." Bastard, how did you arrange the sentries? How did the Ming army know where our provisions were?"”
The furious Benyashili pulled out the bend and hacked the patrol officer to death." Spare me, Great Khan, ah..."
"Quickly chase after the Ming army and kill them!"
……
Zhu Zhanji led the group and rushed out for nearly 10 miles before stopping to catch his breath and asking,""Hurry up and count the number of people.”
Chang Sheng reported," Master, not a single person is missing. There are more than a dozen of them who are slightly injured. They are all fine. They were injured by blunt weapons. Our armor is really powerful…"
"Your Highness, the Tatars are chasing us. There are three to four thousand cavalrymen at the front!，The ones behind were too far away and couldn't be seen clearly!”
"Old method, let's sneak away and eat these thousands of people first!”
"Understood!"
"Hyah ~"
When the Tatars were three hundred steps away, the Ming army began to retreat at a constant speed after a rain of arrows. They kept the distance of two hundred steps between the Tatars and the cavalrymen and kept shooting at the Tatars with their longbows.
After every round of arrow rain, one or two hundred Tartars would fall from their horses.
The Tatar cavalrymen also shot back with their bows and arrows, but they could not reach the Ming army at all. They cursed angrily,
"Dammit, how can their bows shoot so far…"
"General, our horses can't catch up with them. The Ming army seems to be waiting for us on purpose. As soon as they get close, they will immediately pull away…"
……
Just as Zhu Zhanji and the others were leading the pursuers for a walk, Zhu Laosi also received a secret report from the Jinyiwei…
