Emperor’s Battlefield: I, Zhu Houzhao, like to push horizontally

Chapter 104: Prince Ming Dynasty, do you still remember Tumubao Hu!

At night, the moon rises.

Dayan Khan left without taking the camp with him.

When he thought about it, it was a complete waste of time to deal with 11 people and carry the camp with them.

If it wasn't for the sake of momentum, he would have taken hundreds of troops there.

This time Dayan Khan went south and raised a total of [-] troops.

In ancient wars that often cost hundreds of thousands or even millions, thirty thousand seemed like a small number, but the reality was not.

The ancient armies numbered in the hundreds of thousands or millions, and apart from the exaggeration, most of them were auxiliary soldiers or civilian laborers for transportation and logistics.

It would be pretty good if a truly capable force could reach 1/10 of its size.

Although the Mongols are all soldiers, their population is there. Even Genghis Khan cannot gather hundreds of thousands, let alone Dayan Khan, a small khan.

Excluding the old, young, women and children within the clan, as well as the troops guarding the tribe, a force of 3 is already the maximum limit.

This time, the harvest southward was good. After Dayan Khan retreated to Hetao, he asked [-] soldiers to go back with the captured soldiers first. He took the remaining soldiers to see what happened in the Ming Dynasty?
If troops were raised to attack him, he would turn around and leave without hesitation.

If Mingren doesn't come, it would be easier to just go deeper and grab another one.

Anyway, he was in the right place at the right time, and with those two legs, he couldn't catch up with him no matter how exhausted he was.

The current Ming Dynasty is not the Ming Dynasty during the Hongwu and Yongle periods.

After the baptism of Tumu Fort, Ming Dynasty's military strength declined rapidly, and it was no longer able to fight deep into the grasslands.

There is no general who can sweep across the entire grassland like Xu Da, Chang Yuchun, Zhu Di and others.

At this time, Ming Dynasty was completely over-defensive and insufficient in offense.

The Ming Dynasty knew its own situation, and as the enemy of the Ming Dynasty for so many years, the grassland naturally knew it very well.

Therefore, every time they attacked Ming Dynasty, they would grab a wave and leave. Relying on their strong maneuverability and familiarity with the terrain, they gradually wore away Ming Dynasty's offensive vigor.

Relying on this extremely simple routine, they succeeded in going south again and again. Every time they ate, their mouths were full of oil. Under the eyes of the Ming army, they laughed and returned to the grassland.

Even the act of plowing grass in the valley has become one of the festivals on the grassland.

If there is no food to eat, they will come to the Central Plains to grab it.

If there are no more women to enjoy, come to the Central Plains to grab them.

All in all, apart from having no biological father or mother, if you need anything, you can just come to the Central Plains to grab it.

This time Dayan Khan went south without any special purpose.

I just heard that there were miracles in the Ming Dynasty, so I brought troops here to see if I could get any benefits. By the way, I told these weak Ming Dynasty people not to forget that there is a very warm neighbor like him to the north.

After many trips south, the Ming army never attacked the camp, making the prairie people less and less vigilant.

Coupled with the absence of the main army, most of the harvest from the grass-hunting valley was returned to the tribe, leaving only a few unlucky Mongolian soldiers to guard the camp.

The others had enough to eat and drink, and ran directly into their own or other people's tents to enjoy the women they had snatched from Daming.

"attack!"

A weak voice sounded in the headset. Huben No. 21 used night vision goggles, holding a submachine gun equipped with a silencer, and led the team members around him, and began to slowly move towards the camp.

The Huben Army has a total of 200 people, with a total of 20 squads, 4 squadrons, and two brigades.

The first brigade was responsible for destroying Dayan Khan's camp this time. The second brigade was beside Zhu Houzhao, responsible for investigating intelligence and protecting Zhu Houzhao's safety.

The target of their team's attack was the camp gate.

As the captain issued the order, the team members who had been lurking for a day were dressed in camouflage uniforms, holding weapons equipped with silencers, and slowly moved towards the camp entrance.

"Pfft..."

As they advanced, two inaudible voices sounded.

The two Mongolian soldiers standing guard at the gate of Dayan Khan's camp fell down without saying a word.

"The sentry has been dealt with!"

The sniper's report sounded in the headset. No. 21's expression did not change, and his pace slowly quickened. He quickly entered the camp without even looking at the body lying on the ground.

"Woooooooo..."

“Hahaha…chirpy…”

As soon as the team entered the camp, there was a faint sound of a woman's pain, accompanied by laughter. No. 21 frowned and gestured behind him.

A soldier pulled out the dagger from his waist, came to the tent like a civet, and stretched out his hand to cut open the tent.

He raised his silenced pistol, pointed it at a shaking figure, and pulled the trigger.

Blood spurted out along with the brain matter, so frightened that the woman below was about to scream.

However, before she could open her mouth, a hand covered her mouth.

The woman looked in horror at the man in front of her, wearing strange clothes and with colorful paint on his face.

The team members opened the camouflage net, revealing the logo of the Ming Dynasty flag on their inner clothes.

Seeing the familiar flag, tears of grievance flowed from the woman's eyes. Looking at the team members who made the silence gesture, she bit her lips and shed tears, and nodded vigorously.

The team members slowly exited the tent, and used a piece of tape to cover the cut tent. They followed the team leader and continued to the next target.

Dayan Khan's army has been under Zhu Houzhao's surveillance since they left the camp.

When Zhu Houzhao heard that Dayan Khan had brought out 2 troops, he was surprised.

His party and the horses he rode only amounted to more than 30 people. What did Dayan Khan think?He actually brought 2 soldiers and horses out. Are you planning to come over and drown him in horse urine?
In Zhu Houzhao's initial thoughts, Dayan Khan already thought highly of him if he brought thousands of people over.

So in order to deal with the soldiers and horses left behind, Zhu Houzhao directly threw away half of his biggest trump card.

Unexpectedly, there were cannons on both sides to fight mosquitoes.

"Where are they now?"

On the grassland hills, Zhu Houzhao held a round fan, pointed Liu Jin to roast the yellow sheep, and asked casually.

"Reporting to your Majesty, they have arrived at the old site of Ao'er Dusi and are on their way to us. They are expected to arrive in the afternoon."

Captain Huben glanced at the electronic map on the nearby instrument and reported Dayan Khan's location.

As a modern army, visual surveillance has long been eliminated.

After the first brigade approached, they installed locators on some of the opponent's horses.

With these gadgets, Zhu Houzhao knew exactly where Dayan Khan and others were.

However, this is only for these ancient troops who know nothing. If they encounter modern troops who understand these things, the locator will not only bring no benefits, but will also be used by the opponent.

"I'll be there in the afternoon."

Zhu Houzhao looked at the surrounding scenery, then at the lamb that was about to be roasted, and said to the captain: "The scenery here is nice, and it is a very good cemetery. Let's wait for him here."

"Come, let the brothers come over. The lamb is roasted. How does it taste?"

The more serious captain raised his hand in salute, sat next to the monitor, and let the team members and Zhu Houzhao eat roast lamb.

"Khan, they have been found. They are on a small hill ten miles away."

Dayan Khan arrived later than expected. It was only at dusk that he found Zhu Houzhao.

"Haha, Prince Ming, please wait and call Ben Khan."

After finding the trace of Zhu Houzhao, Dayan Khan's eyes were filled with excitement. He raised his hand and waved his horsewhip, and ordered to the troops: "Rush over, don't let him escape, surround him for this Khan, don't kill anyone, we want to Do it yourself!”

At Dayan Khan's order, the Mongolian cavalry let out excited screams, slapped their horses, and changed from a slow trot to a galloping gallop.

Poor little barbarian, if they wanted to know that it was precisely because of their actions that the horse's physical strength was severely exhausted, and it didn't even have the strength to escape, they would probably come down and carry the horse forward at this moment.

The ancient cavalry was not like what was shown on TV, where one person and one horse were all it took. It was only done that way to save costs.

A real cavalry unit consists of one person, two horses, or even three horses.

In order to save horse power, the cavalry was replaced at any time when marching. In addition, the extra horses could also carry the cavalry's equipment and food supplies.

Most of the Mongolian cavalry have three horses per person, and the poorer ones have two horses per person.

The mighty, [-] war horses came galloping forward, the momentum was majestic and spectacular.

The horses' hooves trampled the rising smoke, which looked like a continuous sandstorm of death.

The rumbling sound of the horse's hooves trampling on the ground shocked the enemy's heartstrings.

A person with a slightly weaker mental will would be frightened to death just by looking at a cavalry charge, let alone fighting it.

It is precisely because of the ferocity of the cavalry that they are known as the kings of the cold weapon era.

I just don’t know if this invincible king’s army will be as invincible as before when it encounters Zhu Houzhao’s armored division?
