Desert Eagle Suletan Khan

In Mongolian, "Aru" means the north of the mountain, and "Khorchin" means archer. The Aru Khorchin tribe deserves the title of the north of the mountain archers. Almost all the adult men and women in the tribe are good at shooting. Since the leader Chuyi led the people to submit to David, he received a lot of good bows from David's armory, which made this advantage more prominent. At this moment, he led 3,000 Aru Khorchin warriors as the vanguard. The grass is long, the geese are flying, and the horses are galloping. It is the time for men to fight.

The pioneer of the Qing army was Niu Wancai, the governor-general and deputy governor. Niu Wancai was originally a general under Li Zicheng, with a big "thief" on his forehead. After surrendering to the Qing Dynasty, he was given the official title of governor-general and deputy governor. He was originally a subordinate of Li Lutai, the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang. Qing Xu Shun Gong and Guangdong General Shen Yongzhong were ordered to move from Fujian to Guangdong. Because they felt that their troops were too few, they requested Niu Wancai's troops to accompany the expedition. When Niu Wancai was under the command of Emperor Yongli of the Ming Dynasty, he had fought with Shen Yongzhong. Knowing that this man was greedy and vicious, he complained to Governor Li Lutai and submitted a memorial to accuse Shen Yongzhong of greed and cruelty. The Qing court ordered Jingnan King Geng Jimao to review. Jingnan Fan and Xu Shun Gong have always been of the same blood, and they reported that Niu Wancai's accusations were groundless. The Qing court then dismissed Niu Wancai from his post and kept him in Fujian. Having offended Shen Yongzhong and Geng Jimao, Niu Caomin naturally had a hard time in Fujian. After receiving the imperial order to mobilize troops to defend the capital, Geng Jimao immediately wanted him to go to Beijing to die. No, he wanted him to defend the capital and make meritorious contributions, and then he would be transferred to the command of Grand Secretary Guaerjiacheke.

Niu Wancai, who had experienced many ups and downs, naturally knew that the so-called defense of the capital was not an easy task, but he had no one in the court and was alone, so he had to swallow his anger and lead 4,000 men to follow the expedition. Unexpectedly, as soon as he was transferred to Che Ke's command, he was appointed as the vanguard by this real Manchu general, saying that he appreciated his bravery. But he knew that the general was not confident in him and wanted to use him to consume the strength of the guards. Although he was clear in his heart, he did not dare to resist. Che Ke was born in the Manchu family of Guarjia. He served as the Minister of State Affairs, the Grand Secretary of the Secretariat, the Grand Tutor of the Crown Prince and the Junior Tutor, and the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue. He was so powerful that he dared not obey him? Although he obeyed the order, he was still angry in his heart. He kept cursing while marching.

"Da~da~da~"

A flag and drum officer came on horseback with military orders, "The commander-in-chief has ordered your troops to speed up the march and reach Tongzhou within five days." After saying this, he rode away with an arrogant look on his face.

"Bah! What the hell!" Niu Wancai spat on the ground angrily.

"General, do we really need to speed up the march? I heard that the pseudo-Khan is coming in person this time, and there are 100,000 cavalrymen near the capital. I'm afraid that our 4,000 brothers can't stop their charge," said He Yin, a guerrilla under his command. Although the highest official position given to Niu Wancai by the Qing court was only the deputy governor and he had been dismissed, his subordinates all called him "General".

Niu Wancai looked at his men who were marching with distress. He thought that when he was a powerful figure, he had tens of thousands of soldiers. Now, he only had these 4,000 old brothers. If they were wiped out in the battle with the guards, how would they survive in the future? Knowing that only with soldiers could one become a king, he took a deep breath and said slowly: "Tell the brothers to walk only five miles more every day, load the baggage and be ready to retreat at any time."

"Yes!" He Yin understood and went down to pass on the order.

Ar Khorchin Bochuyi came with three thousand archers from the north mountain. When he saw the big flag with the word "Ox" on it, he didn't waste any words and directly ordered his subordinates to ride their horses forward and shoot arrows.

"Swoosh~Swoosh~Swoosh~" Arrows fell like rain. Although the Qing army raised their shields, many of them were still shot down.

"You bastard, shoot!" Niu Wancai cursed and ordered his archers to fight back. However, the number of his archers was much smaller than that of the guards, so they were no match for them.

"Forward! Fight the Tartars in close combat!" Niu Wancai, who didn't know how to avoid the Manchu master's suspicion, was furious and blurted out the word "Tartars". His men rushed towards the enemy in a military formation, wanting to fight the guards in close combat.

"Hmph! Retreat!" Chu Yi sneered and ordered his subordinates to turn their horses and retreat.

Niu Wancai's troops, who were mainly infantry, were unable to catch up and were quickly shot down by the guards. "Form a battle array! Shoot!" Chu Yi gave the order again, and the archers of the Alukhorchin tribe quickly formed a cavalry formation, turned around, drew their bows, and shot arrows back at the horses. The front row shot straight, and the back row shot with projectiles.

"Chiu~Chiu~Chiu~" Another burst of arrows rained down, and dozens of Qing soldiers fell to the ground.

“Follow me to kill the enemies!” Niu Wancai was aroused by his bloodiness as a big thief. He led the army to charge personally, vowing to avenge his old brother who died under the arrows of the guards.

"Retreat!" Chu Yi sneered and ordered a retreat again. After retreating out of the range of an arrow, he ordered his subordinates to line up and shoot back the horse arrows.

The Qing army could never catch up with the guards. Dozens of soldiers fell down with each round of shooting. After five rounds, only 3,600 of the 4,000 Qing soldiers were left.

"Commander-in-chief, the Mongols are good at riding and shooting. We cannot catch up with their cavalry. They retreat and shoot at the same time, and we can only take the beating. Unless we order our cavalry to catch up with them, we have only 200 cavalry in total, and we cannot be their opponent even if we catch up. It is better for us to retreat first and wait for the main army to arrive," He Yin ran to Niu Wancai and urged him.

"Yeah," Niu Wancai nodded, and uttered a word with a gloomy face: "Retreat!"

"Chase!" Seeing the enemy retreat, Chu Yi, who had just ordered his men to feign retreat to lure the enemy, changed his tactics and ordered a pursuit. Infantry naturally could not outrun cavalry, and the archers of the Alukhorchin tribe quickly caught up with the Qing army on horseback and shot wildly at the rear of the Qing army.

Every time they retreated a distance, dozens of Qing soldiers would fall. Looking at the old brothers who kept falling, Niu Wancai felt daggers in his heart, but he could only bite the bullet and continue to retreat. Soon, another 200 Qing soldiers fell in the rain of arrows, and finally a pole with the word "Wu" appeared in front.

Niu Wancai breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that the troops coming were from the Left Commander-in-Chief Wu Liuqi, the General of Raoping, Guangdong. Wu Liuqi was a fierce general. Born in Hakka, he studied when he was young and had great strategies. Later, he lost all his money due to his gambling addiction and became a beggar. He begged in Dapu and the areas of Jiangsu and Zhejiang. Because he was strong and tall, he was nicknamed "Iron Beggar". At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the righteous army was surging. Wu Liuqi returned to his hometown, Haiyang County, Guangdong (Fengshun County, Meizhou City), and formed a team with his brother Wu Liubiao to help the court suppress the peasant army. He was highly valued by Emperor Yongli and was named the General of Raoping. When the Qing army entered Guangdong, he saw that the Qing army was powerful, surrendered to the Qing court, and captured Chaozhou for merit. He was still named the General of Raoping. Later, he suppressed the anti-Qing and restoration activities and was awarded the title of Left Commander-in-Chief. After being named the Left Commander-in-Chief, this "Iron Beggar" became motivated and devoted himself to helping the Qing government suppress the remnants of the Southern Ming Dynasty and making great military achievements. When he received the Qing government's order to mobilize troops, he led 5,000 Haiyang soldiers to the battle with his brother Wu Liubiao without hesitation, hoping to make military achievements and have his wife and son rewarded.

"General Wu, save me!" Niu Wancai hurriedly ran to the big flag with the word "Wu" on it and shouted.

Humph! Useless thing! Wu Liuqi, who was born as a "soldier", really looked down on Niu Wancai, who was born as a thief. When he saw him asking for help, he sarcastically said, "Don't be alarmed, Niu Tongzhi, and arrange for your subordinates to watch the battle and see how our town defeats the enemy."
