Desert Eagle Suletan Khan

Chapter 190: Destroying the Demon with All His Strength (Part )

Dunyue Duoji was reviewing official documents in the military camp when his general Ojudel stumbled in and said, "Jiebo, Mongolian cavalry was found to the west of Baili."

"What! Did the Mongols attack Baili? How did they get past Qamdo? Why is there no news from Guanjue, Jiangda, Dege, Baiyu and other places?" The big chieftain's expression changed.

"Jiebo, the Mongols released the captives from all over the country. According to those captives~" Ojudel's voice was hesitant.

"What did you say?" the big toast roared.

"They said that the Mongols captured Qamdo, Guanjue, Jiangda, Dege, and Baiyu, and Master Sangye Lingba of Fatai of Zizhu Temple surrendered to the Mongols. He also wrote letters to temples and chieftains in various places, saying Sultan is the physical manifestation of Padmasambhava, and you are the reincarnation of Baili demon. Sultan's crusade against you is to subjugate demons. Now everyone in the army is panicked, so you have to think of a way quickly."

"You mean Master Sangye Lingba surrendered to the Mongols? No, this is absolutely impossible!"

A young and elegant face appeared in Dunyue Duoji's mind. He was more than 20 years older than the monk, but he had formed a sincere friend.

That year, he heard about the appearance of Guanyin in Zizhu Temple. Out of curiosity, he went to listen to the Dharma and met the great monk who was preaching the Dharma non-stop. The great monk was so eloquent that he was convinced by just a few words. At that time, he was worried about which sect to join. The great monk said with a smile: "Jie Bo's ambition is as broad as the ocean. The young monk is willing to bring you sea water. One day, with the efforts of you and me, The sacred Buddha's light will illuminate the entire snowy area." With just this sentence, he made a choice: to depose all factions and only respect the Ben faction.

He has always regarded Sangye Lingba as his most reliable ally, and this ally has always firmly supported him in unifying Kangrong and enlarging the Snowy Territory. Has this person really betrayed him now?
It was emotionally difficult to accept, but my intuition told Dunyue Duoji that this was probably true. From the first time he met Sangye Lingba, the chieftain understood that he and the great monk could only be allies and could never become friends. There is a kind of indifference in Sangye Lingpa's eyes that regards all living beings as ants. In other words, this person only has the interests of the Yongzhong Bon sect in his eyes and has no personal feelings. When the Mongols arrived at the foot of Zizhu Mountain, the life and death of the Yongzhongben sect hung on a thread. In order to save the Yongzhongben sect, he betrayed himself and helped Sultan spread rumors. Is there anything surprising? If you want to blame, you can only blame yourself for lack of strength and defeat. Without strength, there are no allies.

Suletan is the physical body of Padmasambhava, and I am the reincarnation of Baili demon. Did he beat me to subjugate demons? snort! This rumor is not unusual at all, many people have used it. Back then, in order to unify the Snowy Land, King Gesar claimed to be the reincarnation of Padmasambhava. In the name of slaying demons, he conquered more than 150 tribes, large and small, and unified the Ling Kingdom. The leaders of the more than 150 tribes have all become monsters in the myth of the snowy land. Humph, when two armies face off, the most important thing is their strength. What's the point of playing these tricks? Sultan, if you are truly a hero, come here and fight me in an upright and fair manner!
Bailimo sneered repeatedly and said to Ojudel: "Master Sangye Lingba will never betray me. This is a trick of the Mongols. They deliberately let these prisoners back to disrupt our military morale."

"I understand, Yuebo, how to deal with these prisoners?"

"How many prisoners did they release?"

"There were 306 prisoners in total, mainly prisoners of Qamdo and Baiyu. Guanjue, Jiangda, Dege and other places all surrendered without a fight."

"Humph", Dunyue Dorje became more and more angry. So many places surrendered without a fight. Monk Sangye Lingba must have played a very bad role in this. "In the name of spreading rumors, kill all these prisoners. Then check the whole army and kill those who spread rumors. I want to see who else dares to talk nonsense."

After hearing the order, Ojudel retreated and searched for those who spread the rumors. In addition to those prisoners, he also captured fifty people. Three hundred and fifty-six bloody heads were chopped off, and the rumors in the army ceased.

After quelling the rumors, Dunyue Duoji issued a military order with a ferocious smile, "order the entire army to rest for three days and fight the Mongols decisively in three days."

Ojudel was shocked, "Jiebo, our army has the advantage of terrain, why not retreat to the mountains and rely on the mountains to defend? Why did we fight the Mongols so quickly?"

"You think I don't want to defend the mountain?" Dunyue Duoji snorted coldly, "But I, Kangrong, have been fighting for years, and the people's livelihood has been in decline. Although I have raised funds in every possible way, I can only raise enough food for the 20,000 troops for three months. According to the mountain And guard, if the war drags on, once the army runs out of food, it will be doomed; besides, rumors are spreading everywhere and the morale of the army is unstable. Although I have suppressed them forcibly, if it drags on for a long time, it is inevitable that some people will be deceived by the rumors and escape from the battle. It is better to take advantage of the opportunity. We still have the strength to fight with the Mongols!"

"Jiebo Yingming, I will go and prepare now, vowing to fight to the death with the Mongolian bandits."

Dunyue Duoji was a veteran on the battlefield, and he fought vigorously and resolutely. With a single order, he led 12,000 Kang soldiers, 8,000 Rong soldiers, and a total of 20,000 troops to camp at the foot of the mountain, preparing for a decisive battle with the Mongols. He knew that the Mongolian cavalry came and went like the wind and had a strong impact. The location of the decisive battle was the undulating open space in the mountains. This terrain not only facilitated his formation, but also made it difficult for the Mongolian army to take advantage of the cavalry. If the two sides fought on foot, he believed that his infantry was not weaker than the Mongols.

As soon as they set up camp, they received bad news: Bu'erjixi, chieftain of Zanla of the Xiaojin tribe, had escaped with eight hundred soldiers.

It turns out that the chieftain of Zanla, Bu'er Jixi, was in charge of the areas of Zanla (Xiaojinchuan) and Zhongbao (Dajinchuan), and he was considered a relatively powerful chieftain in Rong District. His territory is very close to Rangtang, the missionary site of the Juenang sect. Not long ago, the monks of the Hearing Nang sect said that Nasultan Khan was the reincarnation of Padmasambhava. He was compassionate and saved all living beings, unlike Chieftain Baili. What he said was so vicious. On the contrary, Chieftain Baili imposed excessive taxes and made the people miserable. It was really like the reincarnation of a demon. Taking advantage of Chief Baili's deployment of troops and generals to fight the Mongols and the change of military positions, he fled with his 800 native soldiers. This run not only deprived Baili's army of eight hundred warriors who were good at fighting in the mountains, but also made the morale of the army even more unstable.

"Jiebo, the last general is willing to lead the army to recover the coward Bu'er Jisina and behead him in public," Ojudel said angrily.

"It's too late. This guy escaped last night and has already fled far away. The Mongols are close at hand, so it's not appropriate to split up our troops to pursue them." Dunyue Duoji sighed, "These chieftains in the Rong area are all ignorant. Wolf! In the decisive battle tomorrow, put the Jiarong soldiers in front and my Kham soldiers in the back. Anyone who dares to retreat without orders will be killed!"
