Chapter 431 Zhu Youxiao is a terrible emperor
Because the Ming cavalry was aiming at Mongolian cavalry mounts.
Therefore, a large number of Mongolian cavalry in the charge fell to the ground due to war horses and inertia, so they flew forward directly and then fell to the ground fiercely.
Some of them were thrown to the ground and could not get up.
Seeing this, Sommer was shocked and shouted loudly: "The range of Ming arms is much further than before, spread out and attack the flanks!"
So, not long after, these Mongolian cavalry with excellent riding decisively adjusted the direction of the charge due to the changes in the posture of their fellow peers, and thus gradually changed from a straight line to an arc.
"One left and one right, the sharp edge is raised!"
Ma Shilong shouted.
Zhao Rujiao and Man Gui turned around and led their cavalry to start shooting at the cavalry on both sides.
The Ming cavalry was equipped with guns very quickly, after all, the launch device was improved instead of the traditional mesh rope gun, so many Mongolian cavalry rushed in front still fell to the ground.
However, in order to protect their families and cover their Khan's evacuation, these Mongolian cavalry still charged towards the Ming army, and their fighting will remain.
So, soon, the two points were still fighting together.
The Ming army also put away the muskets, held the sabers and slashed each other.
Both sides went back and forth several times, constantly changing their war horses, and from time to time, cavalry or war horses fell to the ground.
However, Somo's Mongolian cavalry was outnumbered, and by the end there were only more than 2,000 cavalry left.
"withdraw!"
Seeing this, Somo rode his horse to the west without saying a word.
The rest of the Mongolian cavalry followed.
Seeing that these Mongolian cavalry did not continue to rush to the formation, but fled westward, Ma Shilong shouted: "Continue to chase!"
So the Ming cavalry chased after him all the way.
"Don't lose the helmet! Don't the knife!"
On the way, Sommer ordered his cavalry to discard his armor and scimitar on the ground, and even threw a bag of gold and silver on his body on the ground.
"The morale of the Mongolian cavalry has been disintegrated, so we should continue to chase them all the way and strive to expand the results of the war."
After pursuing for several days, Ma Shilong started talking to Zhao Rujiao and Man Gui.
Zhao Shujiao said: "But we don't have enough food and grass. We didn't bring much food in the raid along the way."
Ma Shilong frowned and said to Man Gui: "Take people back to Jizhou and ask Cao Wenzhao if the grain has been escorted."
But at this time, Cao Wenzhao, who was responsible for escorting grain and supplies, happened to arrive at this time: "Master Ma! Your food and supplies are transported, but the ministry said that your mission is to raid, not to expedition to the north of Mobei, so it was only half a month for the amount to be transported, which was just enough for you to escort the prisoners back!"
"Half a month?!"
After hearing this, Ma Shilong was shocked and threw the whip in his hand on the spot, saying angrily: "Why is his surname Wang so stingy? It's not his family's food and supplies? Damn it, didn't he hoard enough for a 100,000 army in Jizhou for a year, but he only gave me half a month, so why bother to calculate so carefully!"
Cao Wenzhao refused to answer.
Man Gui wanted to dissuade Ma Shilong from the beginning, but now seeing this, he seized the opportunity and persuaded: "Master, I guess this is what the above means. I don't want us to continue pursuing. It's for caution, for fear that we will be trapped. After all, there are still tens of thousands of cavalry outside. Maybe they have gathered together at this time and are waiting for us to go. Besides, before going to war, the imperial edict said that we would raid Manta'er and go back. So, why don't you catch these prisoners back? Anyway, you can still make a contribution and have military merits."
"Um!"
Ma Shilong responded.
...
"Khan, the Ming army did not come. They have escorted our family, slaves and people who did not escape back to Jizhou."
After seeing Lin Dankhan, Somo reported to Lin Dankhan and immediately apologized: "Slaves are not seducing the enemy, please punish the Khan!"
"Damn it! Who revealed the news that Mingjun knew our location!"
Lin Danhan drew his sword and split the maid who served him in half on the spot. After seeing blood hanging on the knife, he reduced his anger a little and said, "Tell the brainmao and the drag them, withdraw all the soldiers and prepare to plunder the Xuan Mansion directly!"
"yes!"
Then, Lin Danhan glared at Feng Quan.
Feng Quan felt a little scared when he saw Lin Danhan killing people, and couldn't help but kneel on the ground honestly: "What are the instructions of the Khan?"
"What's going on? Your country will actually take the initiative to send troops to attack my Dayuan? Could it be that the emperor of your country, like his ancestors, is not satisfied with being the emperor of the Southern Dynasties, but also being the master of the Northern Dynasties? He should not be a fool, and he will not know that it would be a waste of money and food to attack my Dayuan. But why did he still do this? Tell me why?"
Lin Danhan asked.
Feng Quan endured the strong desire to pee and replied: "I am not very clear. However, according to my understanding, Emperor Zhu Youxiao of Ming Dynasty was indeed a martial arts man who valued military generals. Even among civil officials, they valued civil officials who could lead troops. Now two border town officials have served as cabinet ministers, and even made the first choice to let military generals serve as local governors. They are also the first person to let scholars enter the martial arts school."
"This is really a terrible emperor!"
Lin Danhan couldn't help but say something.
As a result, Lin Danhan became more and more interested in understanding Zhu Youxiao, so he continued to ask: "Who taught him these? Don't you Han people don't like such a king? Why did you teach such an emperor who worships martial arts?"
"Of course it was caused by the instigation of treacherous officials."
Feng Quan answered tremblingly.
"Who is the treacherous minister?"
Lin Danhan asked.
"Xu Guangqi! Xu Guangqi served as a lecturer at the imperial lecture for the longest time, and Sun Chengzong, and Fang Congzhe, Xiong Tingbi, Yuan Keli and other people. They were all treacherous ministers. Under their guidance, the current emperors of the Ming Dynasty controlled the benefits of maritime trade in the south and border trade in the north. Under the guise of loyalty to the emperor, they plundered all the wealth of powerful and noble gentry except themselves, including vassals and nobles, and then crazily trained soldiers and navy. They organized a large number of refugees into the people, recruited the strongest among these refugees into soldiers in the name of relief, and trained the rest into new craftsmen, and then made a large number of weapons and warships."
Feng Quan replied.
"So many treacherous ministers, then it seems that they are not treacherous ministers."
Lin Danhan said something and looked at the south meaningfully. He also began to feel a little scared. He didn't know how strong the Ming Dynasty in the south had accumulated.
"I remember you said before that many of you powerful and powerful gentry are very dissatisfied with your emperor. If Ben Khan led his troops into the pass and gave them some support, would they rebel against your emperor?"
Lin Danhan asked.
"Even if you don't rebel, you won't be loyal! The powerful and noble gentry of the Ming Dynasty have long suffered from him. Zhu Youxiao has been in trouble for a long time, and even his own slaves have carried out mutiny. It shows how unpopular he is now! Needless to say, royal family, nobles, civil officials, and military generals, there are many dissatisfied with him. Now he has just won over a group of people. As long as the Khan has hope of entering the Central Plains, someone will respond."
Feng Quan replied.
"Okay, you can instigate Ben Khan to rebel against them. If Ben Khan can be the lord of the Central Plains in the future, Ben Khan will let you be the prime minister!"
Lin Danhan said.
