Daming Yuanfu

Chapter 890 Pursuit
The more you are the leader of a party, the less you can fall into ideals and be unable to extricate yourself. Only by facing reality can you gain success or avoid failure.

Of course, sometimes failure is unavoidable, so at least the loss must be stopped in time, and for this reason, you can even survive with a broken arm.

Zasak Tutumen Khan chose to break his arm to survive.

In the early morning of this day, even the sky was still dark, and it was the darkest hour before dawn. Tumen Khan left the camp and went north, leaving only about [-] cavalry in the rear camp to create the illusion that the army was still there, intending to deceive him. Chataiji Daying Camp is more than ten miles away.

Chataiji had already received news from the Western Front around midnight last night, and he expected that the Tumen might leave, but he judged according to the normal situation—that is, the Tumen should at least wait until the sky began to turn pale. It's time to leave, so he made some preparations in advance, preparing to leave the green generals to guard the camp, and lead the main force to go north to intercept, so as to entangle Tumen Khan.

It was the time difference of about half an hour between the time when the sky was still dark and when it was just dawn, which caused Chataiji to miss out.

With a dignified face, Chataiji dismounted and looked at the horseshoe prints on the ground, then got on the horse again, and ordered in extremely simple words: "Chasing!"

At this time, Gao Wushi was still doing foreign work, but in order to avoid being caught by some people in the future, he still sent Ma Chengxun's department back to block our Khan's retreat—Ma Chengxun originally had this task.

In fact, Hannaji really wanted to block Tumen as soon as possible, but unfortunately he didn't dare to speak up in front of Gao Yushi, because Gao Yushi's reasons for telling him seemed to be very sufficient.

Gao Wushi said that this morning, he will temporarily reorganize the remnants of Xin Ai. In order to ensure a smooth reorganization, his army is needed to suppress the situation, and this matter is related to the smooth completion of his marriage with Zhong Jinhatun.

When it comes to the marriage with Zhong Jinhatun, no matter how anxious Han Naji is, he can only stare blankly. After all, this is a major foundation for Tumet's future stability, so he has to wait patiently and watch the high-level pragmatism for reorganization.

He has a lot of practical experience in the matter of reorganizing and surrendering the army. After all, he has done it several times in Annan alone, but this time the situation is slightly different, because it is impossible for him to send his cavalry out to control the real power of the remnants of Xin Ai. Some Mongolians can be transferred from the Majiada soldiers to mix with water-Majiada soldiers actually originally meant "Tar soldiers". There are many Mongolians and Hui nationalities, so it is very easy to recruit.

However, this watering is temporary, and when it is handed over to Zhong Jinhatun in the future, people must be taken back. Otherwise, even though Zhong Jinhatun is a hardcore pro-Ming faction, he may have to be slandered.

Since it was only a temporary reorganization, it would be relatively quick to complete the reorganization, especially with the presence of Xin Ai himself, it was already done before noon, and Han Naji anxiously asked to send troops quickly.

Gao Wushi did not refuse, and set off with an army.

At this time, there were a lot of people in this line of troops. The guards of the central army were Gao Yushi's own personal guards, Jingying cavalry and Majiada soldiers. The remnants of Xin Ai's troops who had just been temporarily reorganized in front, and the infantry of Zhang Bingzhong's troops in the rear—now borrowed The spare horses under Hannaji's command became cavalry infantry, and the outermost part was naturally the main force of Hannaji's Tumet West Post.

There are more than 6 troops in the army, and all of them march on horseback without exception. Basically, they can be regarded as [-] cavalry. The momentum is not inferior to that of Tumen Khan when he first entered Tumed. Even because he has been winning battles, his momentum may still be To be more prosperous three points.

To Gao Pragmatic's surprise, he thought that Zhang Bingzhong's troops would be slowed down by temporary guest cavalry from infantry. Unexpectedly, although Zhang Bingzhong's troops were not cavalry, everyone could ride horses. The impact on the speed of the army is not great at all.

Gao Wushi put on a gratified smirk and called Zhang Bingzhong over to ask. It turns out that although the total number of cavalry in Xuanda University has decreased over the years, the training intensity has increased due to the strengthening of finances. After more than ten days of equestrian training, riding a horse to fight is certainly a joke, but the action alone can still do it.

Gao Wushi rolled his eyes in his heart, but he still wanted to comfort him with warm words on his face, exaggerating that Bingzhong was well prepared and very foresighted, and boasting that Zhang Bingzhong, an honest man, had a grin on his old face.

Originally, it’s no big deal if the speed is faster, as long as Tumen’s sweaty brain is not convulsed, he should have run nearly a hundred miles by now. Who knows that Zhang Wanbang, who made great achievements in defending Xin Ai yesterday, came out to join in the fun, Offer advice: "Servants, there is a saying that soldiers are valuable and fast, and the humble servants see that the servants in the servants are very good at riding, and the horses in their troops are rare horses. It is better to order them to rush to the Tumen's retreat. Even if It can’t be blocked, at least it can slow down the Tumen’s retreat and create opportunities for our army to encircle and suppress this beast..."

Before he finished speaking, he was criticized by his father first, Zhang Bingzhong stared and said: "What do you know, the servant is the emperor's envoy with full power, and he can't take half a risk. To protect the safety of imperial envoys, how can you advise them to block screenshots?"

Then he turned his head and pleaded guilty to Gao Wushi: "The dog is young, ignorant, talking nonsense, please forgive me."

Gao Wushi smiled, and said: "It's okay, your son is also thinking about defeating Tumen. Whether it's wrong or right, the purpose is always good."

This may sound like a big deal, but to put it bluntly, it’s just three words: don’t use it.

Zhang Wanbang was a little disappointed, and explained: "The safety of the imperial envoy is actually not a problem. Both the soldiers and the Beijing camp can stay. In addition, our department is good at guarding, so we can always ensure the safety of the imperial envoy..."

"Evil, shut up!" Zhang Bingzhong said angrily.

Zhang Wanbang was not usually afraid of his father, but in front of Gao Yushi, he didn't dare to contradict him, so he had to shut up resentfully.

Gao Yushi had seen this guy's boldness more than ten years ago, and knew that there was nothing wrong with his suggestion, so he said, "Actually, what Sanxi (Zhang Wanbang's name is Sanxi) said is not unreasonable, but I guess it is just right. After Ji received the battle report last night, he should be prepared. Even if the Tumen want to leave, they will be entangled by him. It may not be of great use to send four thousand more of my servants..."

After hearing this, Zhang Wanbang had no choice but to give up.

Ma Gui actually wanted to fight, because his nephew Ma Chengxun had made a great contribution yesterday, but he, the third uncle, only made a contribution in defending Shacheng, but he hadn't gotten any chance to make a contribution in the field. So he thought for a while and said: "Servant, the general feels that Sanxi's words do have some truth, or else..."

He coughed lightly, and said: "The last general led Xin Ai's remnant troops to block the screenshots. The soldiers and others will stay first, so I will ask General Zhang to take charge of them, which will be enough to protect them well. Unstable, going here is also giving them a chance to make meritorious service, which is equivalent to casting a certificate of honor. Just a little opinion, please make a decision at your discretion."

When Ma Gui came out to speak, Gao Yushi still wanted to show some face, and said, "Mr. Ma, are you sure that the Xin Ai Department can command Ruyi now?"

"It's impossible to talk about Ruyi, but they should not disobey orders at this time. After all, Xin Ai and the other sons are in the army of servants, so what if they don't obey orders?"

Gao Wushi thought about it for a while, then nodded slightly: "Okay then, Ma Zongrong, I will work hard for you... Just remember, we have made great achievements in this battle, but there is a saying in the art of war: 'Don't stop when you return to the teacher'. If Tumen is in a hurry to escape, and the Chahar Department under his command still has combat power, if the force is too strong, it may cause a strong counterattack, and the loss will be too great, but it will not be beautiful-you know that the Xin Ai Department will be handed over to Zhong in the future. Those of Jin Hatun should know the meaning of this."

Ma Gui understood at a glance, nodded immediately and said: "Thank you for your reminder, Ma Gui understands."

Gao Wushi nodded, and approved: "Then you go and order troops, be careful in everything, and don't be brave."

"Thank you, Shizhong, for your concern, the general will go." Ma Gui clasped his fists and said.
