On the seventh day of the first lunar month, all the front, middle and rear flags of Chahar's right wing were defeated. Hong Chengchou and Qin Liangyu commanded the battle, and the requirements were the same, and they must be wiped out completely, because this battle had a great surprise nature. Although the right wing of the Chahar tribe received a warning from Huang Taiji, due to the severe cold climate, the lack of understanding of firearms, and the excessive confidence, the tribe was not fully prepared, and was caught off guard and wiped out.

The Chahar tribe is known as the eagle on the grassland, claiming to have an army of 100,000. This time, the right wing was completely destroyed and the soldiers were lost were nearly 40,000. Su Tiancheng made a judgment. It seems that the Chahar tribe has a huge army, which is really not a boast. Generally speaking, the left wing army is generally stronger than the right wing.

According to the information collected by Qu Qingze, the Korqin tribe had more troops than the Chahar tribe, and its combat effectiveness was probably comparable. This is because the Korqin tribe received strong support from Huang Taiji and developed very quickly. Moreover, the best grasslands and hunting grounds on the grasslands are basically all belonged to the Korqin tribe.

After winning the first battle, Su Tiancheng was a little worried, mainly because he was worried about the subsequent conquests. Once the grassland tribe began to pay attention to artillery, the battle would probably become even more cruel.

Chahar's right wing was completely destroyed and the right wing was wiped out. This news would soon spread throughout the grassland. At this time, Su Tiancheng was unwilling to waste time. When the three armies met, he issued an order to attack Chahar's left wing.

The problem is that nearly 5,000 prisoners were captured. The consumption of these prisoners was indispensable, and the soldiers were also responsible for the guards. When the Xibe tribe and the Daur tribe attacked, they had to be much more decisive in their attacks, and they did not obey the orders of not killing the surrendered sergeants. They basically wiped out the opponents. Regardless of whether the opponents dismounted or surrendered, they would never show mercy when they took action. Even Hong Chengchou and Qin Liangyu, who were commanding the battle, did not emphasize too much, so there were very few captives from the two tribes.

The problem is also the old, weak, women and children of the Chahar right-wing tribe. Under the severe cold climate in winter, it is difficult for them to survive if they leave the tribe, but Jiangning Camp cannot take care of so many elderly, weak, women and children.

The situation of the grassland is completely different from that in the inner city, and even different from Fuzhou and Xuanzhou. The grassland tribes are accustomed to nomadic life and rarely build cities, which leads to their security system being very fragile. They rely almost entirely on the weather for their living. In one year, if the tribe suffers major natural disasters and the tribe does not have enough reserves, they will reduce the population in large quantities.

Su Tiancheng could not think of a good way. The only thing he could do was to prohibit the plunder of soldiers and leave all the livestock and food to the elderly, weak, women and children of the tribe. Let these people survive the cold winter. At the same time, Su Tiancheng also made a move to save the right wing of the Chahar tribe, that is, to concentrate all the old, weak, women and children of the right wing front banner, the middle banner and the back banner to the original location of the right wing rear banner. Under normal circumstances, the rear banner is mostly a logistics base, and the living conditions are relatively better. It is precisely because of Su Tiancheng's move that the old, weak, women and children of the right wing of the Chahar tribe can barely survive this harsh winter.

As for the captured prisoners, Su Tiancheng resolutely decided after careful thinking. He asked these prisoners to return to the tribe to take care of their families, but only selected the officers and commanders and killed them mercilessly. As for everyone's doubts, after returning to the tribe, these prisoners might have to continue to fight, so Su Tiancheng ignored them.

Su Tiancheng would not have thought that his move later had a huge impact on the grassland tribe. Everyone knew that Jiangning Camp did not kill the elderly, weak, women and children, or prisoners, and was a respectable opponent, so many tribes took the initiative to surrender. Those prisoners who were released even felt that Su Tiancheng was the immortal heaven of the grassland and was specially here to rule the grassland. If they continued to go against Su Tiancheng, they would be seeking death.

After a brief assembly, the three armies set out again and rushed towards the Chahar left-wing front flag, the middle flag and the rear flag.

Mo Chuo and Tong Cha's confidence increased greatly. The victory of the first battle gave them great hope. Although Su Tiancheng had requirements and was not allowed to rob, the tribe could still get some practical benefits, such as war horses, weapons, etc. These things were treasures on the grassland and were valuable.

It is precisely because of this victory that before the departure, there were some disputes about the deployment of the operations. Some officers believed that it was completely unnecessary to continue to adopt the method of luring the operations. The Mongolian tribes were prepared. Such a method of combat was likely to increase casualties, so they simply launched artillery fire strikes on the tribe's garrison. In this case, casualties can be minimized and greater victory can be won.

As soon as this opinion emerged, it was severely scolded by Su Tiancheng. Su Tiancheng said it was very rude. Anyone who wanted to take the form of bombing, regardless of the casualties of the elderly, weak, women and children in the grassland tribe, just to win by any means, would he be responsible. He would never be polite. As for the contest between the army, some situations will not be investigated for the time being. Su Tiancheng said it was very rude. Although some people felt it was difficult for them to understand, they still had to execute the order.

In this matter, Su Tiancheng had an almost stubborn idea. He also knew that the following suggestions had the correct aspects. How to reduce his own casualties is the first thing commanders at all levels should consider. As for the casualties of opponents, including the casualties of civilians, they can be considered in the next step. However, Su Tiancheng, who is familiar with history, hates the way that the civilians do not matter whether they live or die in order to achieve the means. Some of the practices of massacres in history and many massacres are all anti-human practices, and no matter what excuses are, they are difficult to explain.

Su Tiancheng was not particularly disgusted with the Mongolian grassland tribe. Before traveling through time, he had visited the Mongolian grasslands. The hospitality and generousness of Mongolian men left him a deep impression. Faced with the Mongolian tribe, killing them all was not the best way. War should not affect too many civilians. Sometimes, it is better for soldiers to make sacrifices than to hurt the ordinary herders of the tribe too much.

As for the battle between the army and the behavior of killing prisoners, Su Tiancheng would not particularly emphasize it. He just reminded me that it is necessary to pay more attention to the actual problems here. In addition, the battle between Mongolian tribes has its own habits. The soldiers of the Xibe tribe and the Dawu tribe are unwilling to have too many prisoners, and they cannot force them too much. However, the soldiers of the Jiangning camp must strictly implement the orders and will never kill the surrendered Mongolian soldiers.

The army was moving very fast and the climate gradually improved much better.

The intelligence work on the grassland was relatively lagging behind, which was also impossible. Although Qu Qingze was fully prepared, the information he obtained was still limited. This was also because of the special environment of the grassland. During the process of the army, he could not see a single person or a yurt all day. There were snow and grasslands everywhere, and even deserts. Under such conditions, it was extremely difficult to quickly convey information.

Mastering the preparations of the tribes on the grassland and whether the Jiangning Camp's entry into the grassland's conquest has been completely leaked, we can only use our own analysis. In this case, Su Tiancheng and Qu Qingze jointly conduct analysis and rely on the accumulated experience to make corresponding judgments.

Qu Qingze believed that although the Jiangning Camp, Xibe tribe and Dawu tribe soldiers wiped out the army of the right wing of Chahar, this news could not be widely circulated on the grassland. Due to climate, most of the herdsmen on the grassland could not take action at this point in time. At this time, the army still had to seize the opportunity and launch an attack on the left wing of Chahar at the fastest speed. It is estimated that after the army of Chahar tribe was wiped out, the news would not be able to continue to be concealed. In other words, when conquering the Korqin tribe, the Tumote tribe, and the Junggar tribe, the situations encountered were different. As for the situation of the Later Jin Tartars, intelligence still needed to support it.

Su Tiancheng agreed with Qu Qingze's analysis and believed that the grassland tribe might not know that the Jiangning Camp had entered the grassland and started a large-scale conquest. He could seize the opportunity and completely wipe out the army of the Chahar tribe in the shortest time. He would have a huge advantage over the subsequent conquests.

As for Hong Chengchou and Qin Liangyu, they were mainly responsible for commanding the battle and successfully wiped out the right wing army of the Chahar tribe. They were very happy. The soldiers of the Xibe tribe and the Dawu tribe still had good combat effectiveness. The Datong border army had a very good mental outlook. It was not too difficult to command such an army to fight.

After understanding the unification, the army's actions went much smoother.

The right wing and left wing of the Chahar tribe are not very far apart. Among the grassland tribes, there are not many tribes with such complete structure. Among them, the Korqin tribe, the Tumote tribe, the Kahan tribe, the Khalkha tribe, etc. are also the targets that Jiangning camp needs to focus on crackdowns.

In just four days, the three armies arrived at their destinations.

A new round of battle is about to begin, and this time the deployment has been adjusted. Hong Chengchou commanded the sergeants of the Xibe tribe, some Datong border troops, and attacked the left-wing rear banner of the Chahar tribe, Qin Liangyu commanded the Dawu tribe's sergeants and some Datong border troops, and attacked the left-wing front banner of the Chahar tribe, and Jiangning Camp still attacked the left-wing central banner of the Chahar tribe.
