Chapter seven hundred and sixth decisive battle
However, Zhu Di knew that Xu Huizu's defeat was not real enough and could not let Alutai react, so Zhu Di quickly issued an order. Xu Huizu's command mistakes made a loss, resulting in unfavorable war situations and was dealt with according to military law.
The imperial edict sent a team of scouts to the Bals and Tan area with a young eunuch.
It was not as expected by Zhu Di.
The team that conveyed the imperial edict was stopped by the scout team of Tatars, who was "accidentally" captured, and the imperial eunuch was sent to Alutai.
Of course, Arutai would not kindly send the imperial edict to Xu Hui's ancestral tribe in Bales and Tan.
Anyway, he thought that Zhu Di's imperial edict had been intercepted. After he learned the news, he would definitely send another imperial edict to Xu Huizu, so he didn't need to be this good person himself.
However, it is precisely because of this imperial edict that Alutai believed more and more that the truth of Xu Huizu's defeat was.
He became more and more despised of Xu Huizu.
I really don’t know how his son Mahadan lost to this man in Yumuchuan last year.
But Alutai did not expect that Zhu Di did not issue an imperial edict at all.
...
...
Zhu Di secretly ordered Zhu Gaoxu's troops to stop and only tentatively attack the Tatar troops stationed in front of him on a small scale. At the same time, he ordered Qiu Fu to do his best to fight, and not allow the Tatars to cut the right wing open.
If the right wing is cut open, the Tatars can detour. The reason for this is to force Alutai to return to the vanguard, or let Alutai divide his troops to bypass Zhu Gaoxu's vanguard, intersect between Xu Huizu and the central army on the left wing of the Ming army, and attack the central army.
Capture the thief and capture the king.
I believe Alutai must have this idea: to defeat Zhu Di, the central army, in one blow, then the outcome of this battle will be decided.
With Zhu Di's order, how dare Qiu Fu not do his best?
What's more, there is Zhang Fu.
Zhang Fu is Zhang Yu's eldest son. He was in power when he fought against Annan. He was a general who had experienced the test on the battlefield. Qiu Fu also trusted him very much. The combination of one old and one young complemented each other.
Therefore, the right-wing Ming army was extremely fierce and fought with the main force of Alutai in front of him, without giving up any inch of land.
The Ming army vanguard was still led by Alutai's small number of troops and could not divide the troops to support the right wing. For a moment, the entire fishing area was filled with swords and swords.
Xu Huizu of Bales and Tanzan gathered their troops and established a stronghold to resist the biting and harassment of some of the troops in Alutai, but there was no sign of continuing to send troops.
However, Alutai knew that Zhu Di was definitely not just that, so he quickly sent troops to cut off the connection between Qiu Fu, Zhang Fu's troops and Zhu Di's central army camp - unless Zhu Di sent heavy troops to open up the passage.
But it made Alutai feel relieved? Because Zhu Di seemed to have given up the right wing? The vanguard led by Zhu Gaoxu began to reorganize the troops and attack on a large scale.
How could Alutai let himself fall into this dilemma?
The Iron Cavalry of the Grassland?
Xu Huizu refused to defend and did not attack.
The war is at a deadlock.
During this period, Alutai tried to lead the cavalry, interspersed between Bales and Tan and Fisher Sea to the rear of Daming, wanting to sneak attack the central army where Zhu Di was located? However, he was stopped by Zhu Gaoxu's division of troops? He had no choice but to change his strategy and entangle Zhu Gaoxu with some of his troops. Then all the troops overpowered Dao Bales and Tan, intending to annihilate the soft persimmon Xu Huizu in one fell swoop.
but……
After beating Xu Huizu for more than half a month, Alutai was cursing.
Xu Huizu, this coward.
It seemed that Alutai was completely killed by his courage? No matter how Alutai called, he would have strong troops to guard and not go to fight? Alutai was unable to do so and could only continue to cut off Xu Huizu's logistics route.
According to estimates, Xu Huizu's logistics food and supplies can last for up to half a month.
But Alutai never dreamed that? He did wait for Xu Huizu to be exhausted? He also put Xu Huizu's troops in a desperate situation? Alutai won consecutive victories for a while, winning over ten thousand heads of the Ming soldiers.
Xu Huizu's troops were completely defeated and were scattered in the Balholstein area. According to scouts, there were only three thousand Ming cavalry around Xu Huizu. As long as they catch up, Xu Huizu will definitely die.
Alutai saw the hope of great victory. Once the Ming left-wing troops were destroyed and wiped out, Zhu Di would definitely retract the vanguard, the central army and the rear wings. The huge Ming army was like a cat with a broken foot, and his own army was a free-flying goshawk.
The situation is very good.
But he never dreamed that he would welcome the encirclement of the Ming Dynasty!
At that moment, Arutai was confused.
He couldn't understand how the central army of the Ming army led by Zhu Di appeared in Saertulu at this point in time. It was completely impossible, and the scout didn't get any news at all!
Not to mention this, even if Zhu Di led the cavalry to take a big detour, his food, grass and supplies could not keep up. Why would he dare to detour so much? Wouldn't he be afraid of the morale of the army being disintegrated because of the food, grass and food issues?
Even so, Zhu Di was about three or five days earlier than his budget time!
How cruel Zhu Di was that he actually gave up the 70,000 troops led by Xu Huizu and used these 70,000 troops as bait to buy time for his roundabout encirclement.
Ruthless enough!
This is exactly what Zhu Di is so brilliant.
As long as Alutai was willing to fight, he would not have to worry about Alutai running away. So after Xu Huizu's continuous defeat attracted Alutai's attention, Zhu Di ordered Zhu Gaoxu and Qiu Fu to send troops to pretend to reinforce Xu Huizu, causing Alutai to misunderstand that the Ming Dynasty did not dare to abandon the left-wing Xu Huizu's troops. However, at that time, Zhu Di had already led the Shenji Camp to detour from the right-wing, circled a huge circle, attacked from the former Qi Palace, and quickly captured the Tatars's garrison Saertulu, and then rushed to the back of Alutai.
It forms a siege.
Zhu Di led the cavalry of Shenji Camp. He exposed the grassland for the first time. As for the food and grass issue?
There is instant noodles!
It was not until this moment that Zhu Di took out his trump card and formed an encirclement posture. The central army assigned to the Shenji Camp infantry of the right-wing Qiufu team to quickly approached. At the same time, Qiu Fu also sent 20,000 infantry to reinforce. In this way, as soon as the reinforcements arrived, Zhu Di would have more than 30,000 infantry and thousands of Shenji Camp cavalry under his command.
indestructible.
The grassland is very large, but the area between Baal and Stan is not large. There are hundreds of thousands of people on both sides in this area. If Arutai wants to run away, it will no longer have a strategic depth.
Especially at this time, Xu Huizu began to fight back strongly.
Alutai can only choose to fight to the decisive battle and then break through.
After rigorous analysis, Alutai chose to turn around and fight Zhu Di head-on: the army running away was overly tired and greatly reduced in combat power. It was also limited by food and grass, so it could not stop its cavalry charge.
And it must be fast.
He had to attack Zhu Di before Qiu Fu's reinforcements arrived, so that he could pay the price for his arrogance.
That's what Arutai thinks and does it.
He sent out 20,000 most elite cavalrymen, and also sent out the most trusted warriors, the ten thousand men, Bagen and Milangan. They each led 10,000 people to attack Zhu Di.
If Zhu Di is killed, everything will be settled.
Although Zhu Di had only about 8,000 cavalry under his command, he was not afraid at all. Whether he could wipe out Alutai depends on whether he could defend this opening. If Alutai had torn it open, it would be basically impossible to wipe out the opponent again.
At least there is no chance this year.
so……
decisive battle!
Chapter completed!
