Desert Eagle Suletan Khan

Chapter 51: A man should follow the drum flag to death (Part )
"Oh, uncle, why are you here?" Gonbuyilden had a deep relationship with his uncle Mergent Muna since he was a child. When he saw him, he was extremely happy.

"It's hard to describe in words!"

Mergent Muna sighed deeply, "Because I was not angry at worshiping Bagas as the Great Khan of Oirat, I actually embezzled my younger brother's inheritance. Out of justice, I sent troops to support the Noer Guards in their expedition to Chukul. Unexpectedly, everyone Butai Ji was afraid of power and ignored justice, so he helped Bai Bagas attack me. Now that I have been defeated repeatedly and am desperate, I came here to ask my nephew to send troops to help me."

"This~"

Gonbuyilden was very hesitant. Based on his friendship with Mergentemuna, he had long wanted to send troops to help, but his father and Orlek were determined not to allow it. If you go, it will be against your father's orders; if you don't go, it will be unfaithful.

"To tell you the truth, I am unable to resist the troops of Bagas Khan. If my nephew does not send troops, I will definitely die. I would rather kill myself here than fall into the hands of thieves and suffer humiliation." After saying this, Mergent Muna burst into tears, pulled out his sword, and was about to commit suicide.

"Oh, this can't be done." Gonbuyilden hurriedly snatched Mergentemuna's waist knife and sighed, "I am willing to send troops to help my uncle."

Seeing that he agreed, Mergent thanked him profusely.

Gonbuyilden also summoned his third brother Ursang and asked him to send troops together. Ursan always listened to Gon Buyilden and readily agreed.

"Uncle Cong, although my third brother and I are willing to send troops to help you, together we only have 10,000 troops. And since Bagas is the Great Khan of Oirat, he has many soldiers and generals. This battle may not be easy. "", Gonbuyilden said to Mergentemuna.

"Haha, my nephew doesn't know something. Nabai Bagas is arrogant and arrogant. Before the tribes of Tulubaihu, Halahula, Dalai Taishi and Suletan arrived, he led 20,000 soldiers and horses deep into the area alone. . Although we are defeated, we still have 20,000 troops, plus the 10,000 elite troops of the two nephews, we can definitely ambush them."

"Baibagas dared to go deep into the Syr Darya River Basin with only 20,000 people. He is worthy of being a hero who has defeated the Hetuhuite tribe!" Ursang admired sincerely.

"Haha, he is a good man, but he is also a reckless man." Gonbu Elden curled his lips disdainfully, "Uncle Cong, where do you plan to ambush them?"

"I have discussed with Kundulun Ubas and planned to set up an ambush on the banks of the Talas River and at the site of the Talos Battle to make him repeat the same mistakes as the Tang army did," Mergent Muna said fiercely.

The boundless Heshuote army came to the banks of the Talas River. More than 800 years ago, a bloody battle broke out here. The Gao Xianzhi tribe of the Tang army was defeated by the army of the Abbasid dynasty, the great ruler of the Arab Empire. More than 20,000 Tang army soldiers were buried in a foreign land. This was a contest between the two great powers in the East and the West. Although the Tang army was defeated, their tenacity and tenacity in the face of an enemy army six times their size, and their strong bows and crossbows, greatly shocked the food army. After the war, the Abbasid Dynasty immediately sent envoys to make peace with the Tang Dynasty and stopped its expansion in the east.

Eight hundred and seventy-eight years have passed, and the Talas River is still flowing. It is the blood of heroes that has been shed for eight hundred and seventy-eight years!

The self-proclaimed hero, and indeed a hero, the Great Khan of Oirat, Baibagas, came here with 20,000 Hoshut warriors. This army followed him in the north and south, and defeated Khalkha, Yarkand, and Kazakhs many times. They were always full of confidence in their subordinates, the great Baibagas. He looked at the running water and asked his subordinates with a smile: "This is the site of the Battle of Talos? Do you know how Tang generals Gao Xianzhi, Li Siye, Duan Xiushi, etc. were defeated?"

This question immediately stopped the generals. Most of the Heshuote generals who accompanied the expedition were rough men. Even if they were somewhat educated, most of them only knew Mongolian history and were not familiar with the history of the Han people.

Only Hanaktu Xietu spoke slowly, "Great Khan, I heard that Gao Xianzhi led 30,000 Tang troops to besiege Talas City and met more than 100,000 Taishi troops. The two sides fought a decisive battle on the banks of the Talas River. The Tang army was brave and good at fighting. , relying on the strong bows and crossbows of the infantry, they once suppressed the Dashi cavalry. However, because the Dashi army was too numerous, they fought for five days without a win. On the evening of the fifth day, the Geluolu soldiers who had originally attached to the Tang army suddenly rebelled and attacked from behind. Surrounding the infantry of the Tang Army, they cut off their contact with the cavalry. Gao Xianzhi was attacked from both sides by the Dashi Army and the Geluolu Tribe and was defeated. What a misfortune! Only a few thousand of the 30,000 Tang Army fled back."

Baibagas stared at his brother Hanak Tushetu with satisfaction. This eldest brother was knowledgeable, gentle, and very popular among the tribe, and his abilities were outstanding. Unfortunately, he was a commoner and could not inherit the position of Great Khan. What's rare is that he has worked hard and supported himself wholeheartedly over the years, never caring about fame and fortune.

"My elder brother is very knowledgeable, and my younger brother admires me," Baibagas said sincerely.

Hanaktu Xietu suddenly frowned and persuaded hesitantly: "Great Khan, back then the Tang army went deep alone and was besieged by the black-clothed food army. Now that our army is far away from the tribe and friendly forces and has gone deep here, the situation is different from that of back then. The Tang army is similar to the Tang army, so we must be on guard. Why don't you lead your army back to Ili and wait for the Khan of the State and the friendly troops from Junggar, Durbot, and Huite to gather before pursuing the enemy?"

"Shut up! This opportunity can't be missed, it will never come again! I finally found the location of the rebels with great difficulty. If I don't attack and eliminate them immediately, I will let the tiger return to the mountain, and there will be endless troubles." Baibagasi Khan shouted, very angry. It was his own intention to give the order to send troops immediately without waiting for friendly forces. If he gave up halfway, where would his majesty be? Over the years of the civil war, my prestige has been severely damaged. I must not go back on my word and lose my prestige because of this!
"The great Khan calmed down his anger because I was not thinking well." Seeing him getting angry, Hanaktu Sheitu hurriedly apologized. This elder brother pays great attention to maintaining his younger brother's authority in public. This is what Baibagas Khan admires most about him, and he respects him very much on weekdays.

Seeing his brother taking the initiative to plead guilty, Bagas Khan suddenly felt a little embarrassed. What happened to him? He is so irritable and irritable that he is so angry at his loyal elder brother! However, those who are sweating should not admit their mistakes easily even if they know that what they did is wrong. Otherwise, where will the power of sweating exist?
Although he was a little guilty, he didn't show it at all on his face. He just said in a slow tone: "Brother, you don't know. Back then, the Tang Army's enemy was a powerful enemy with hundreds of thousands of soldiers in black clothes, while our enemies were just remnants of soldiers." The defeated general; and the terrain here is flat, which is conducive to cavalry. The Tang army has many infantry, so the terrain is unfavorable, but our army is all cavalry, so the terrain is favorable. In addition, there are no woods in this area, and the field of vision is wide. Even if the enemy wants to attack us, there is nothing to hide from. . Therefore, I think there is no need to return, just camp here."

Hanaktu Sheitu thought about it carefully and felt that his brother's words were very reasonable. He said sincerely: "The Khan has a far-sighted vision. It's better for me to wait!"
