    ,

    Looking at the Datong military flag on the mound in the distance, Chahun Dorji couldn't say a word at this moment.

    The mound is not big, and the area of ??the entire raised area is less than 30,000 square meters, roughly equivalent to four football fields.

    Such a point certainly cannot accommodate tens of thousands of people, not to mention civilian husbands and luggage.  Most of the outer chariot formations and caltrops, including spearmen, musketeers, and grenadiers, are distributed around the mound.

    The artillery is all on the soil slope, and many platforms have been dug and placed, and the shells can fly over the heads of one's own soldiers.

    There are several divisions serving as bait in the south, and each division only has 500 dragoons, and the remaining dragoons are all in the hands of Li Zheng.  Adding the dragoons of the two divisions in Liaoning, the number of cavalry alone was 15,000¡ªamong them, 5,000 dragoons followed the main force of the infantry.  The remaining 10,000 dragoons had long since disappeared, not near the battlefield at all.

    ? Li Zhengwen returned to stability, but he not only knows stability, but also understands what it means to "cooperate with integrity and win with odds".

    What are the ten thousand dragoons doing?

    Looking for the Mongols' logistics force!

    Chahundorji conquered many tribes along the way, especially on the Horqin grassland, and captured a large number of people, livestock and food.  In the continuous long-distance turn, it is impossible to bring all the animals, so the marching speed will be too slow.  It is also impossible to leave it alone somewhere, it is very likely that a cavalry escort will be sent, and it will be hidden somewhere at this moment.

    The main force of Khalkha in front of him only brought less than 100,000 cattle and sheep with the army.  The livestock of the various tribes in Horqin must be more than this little, otherwise the Horqin tribe would have starved to death.

    "Khan, the general of the Han army is not easy to deal with." Darhan rode over.

    Chahun Doerji seemed to be talking to himself, and also seemed to be talking to others: "There are tens of thousands of cattle and sheep, and some cattle are pulling carts with a lot of grain. Why don't the Han people chase after them?"  ? With so many livestock and food, how could anyone in the world be able to bear it?"

    Darhan said: "This just shows that the military discipline of the Han army in front of us is terrible."

    And thinking about it differently, Chahun Dorji can fully imagine what would happen to his army if he had been lured just now.

    Perhaps he himself was able to see through the trick and ordered the ministries not to pursue him.  But the tribal leaders under his command may not necessarily obey orders.  To be precise, someone must have disobeyed the order and rushed towards the cattle and sheep with red eyes.  As long as one or two tribes rush out, the rest of the tribes will follow suit, for fear that if they run slowly, they will lose the loot.

    Chahun Dorji's military talent is extremely high. Every time he fights, he will subconsciously think differently: I am the enemy's general, what will I do.  I am an enemy general, what will I do?

    That's why he decided to feign defeat and lure the Datong army to give up their positions and chase after them.

    It never occurred to him that the Han army in front of him was different from his own army!

    Not only are the equipment different, the tactics are different, but even the general's restraint on the troops is also different.

    Morgan also came on horseback and said, "Khan, there is only one way for us to win if the Han soldiers form a chariot formation like this. It is to surround them until they have no water. There is no water source here. They may have enough food, but  They will run out of drinking water in a day or two. After two days, there will be no water, and they will last for another two or three days at most, and they will die of thirst if they are thirsty!"

    Chahun Dorji said aggrievedly: "That would be a trick. The Han people just want to delay the time, and they wish we could surround them. In four or five days, it is enough for the main force of the enemy's cavalry to come after us!"

    Darhan said: "According to reports from sentry cavalry sent out a few days ago, it seems that there are Han reinforcements in the south, and the number is not as large as before. Let's continue to the south to intercept and kill the reinforcements of the Han. After we leave, if here  The Han soldiers followed suit, so it depends on the situation to decide how to fight. If there is an opportunity in the south, go to the south. If there is an opportunity here, come back and fight here.¡±

    Morgan said: "Yes, we are all cavalry, and there is no need to forcefully attack the Han chariot formation. We Mongolian warriors fight while walking. How can there be any reason to surround them all the time? It is the Han people who fight this kind of positional warfare."  Our strengths are our weaknesses. We can¡¯t use our weaknesses to compare our strengths with the Han people.¡±

    "Then go further south!" Chahun Dorji said.

    Li Zheng stood on the mound, observed carefully with binoculars, and basically guessed what the enemy was thinking.  This is the last thing he wants to see!

    The enemy is all cavalry, which is difficult to deal with when moving.  Under the constant turning and pulling, the infantry division of the Datong Army is very easy to show its flaws and be caught.

    Li Zheng muttered to himself: "I made a mistake. I shouldn't have transferred the two divisions from the south."

    Li Dingguo's battle plan was very risky, and Zhang Tieniu, who was in charge of making the decision, was also a lunatic.  them"It's another car formation, another car formation!"

    Chahun Dorji was so angry that his face was red and his neck was thick. The car formation in front of him was even more interesting. It was next to the Heimulun River, and there was no shortage of drinking water.  And there is no need to defend the side near the river, there are more sufficient troops to defend the chariot formation.

    He believes that the hard attack can be won, but it will take many casualties, and it will take several days.  What he lacks most now is time, for fear that the cavalry division of the Datong Army will come after him.  The cavalry divisions of Zhang Tieniu, Li Dingguo, and Wang Tingchen all have one man and two horses.  One horse was used for riding, and the other horse was used to carry armor. The equipment looked scary from a distance. Chahun Dorji didn't want to fight with the cavalry division of the Datong Army.

    "Khan, the firearm of the Han people."

    This is left behind by the death of the dragoons, a total of 174 flintlock guns.

    Chahun Dorji studied for a while, finally understood how to shoot, and immediately said with emotion: "This is a good blunderbuss, much better than the Raksha ghost's blunderbuss, and there is no need to carry a long matchlock. Han infantry, if  Using this kind of firecrackers, the Mongolian warriors must not charge forward."

    Darhan looked at the chariot formation in front of him, sighed and said, "Khan, go back to Mobei, the Horqin Grassland can't be occupied."

    At the time of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Li Ling led 5,000 infantry out of Juyan, but was besieged by 80,000 Huns cavalry as his lone army went deep.  Li Ling did not have guns and artillery, so he formed an formation relying on heavy carts, fought with the Huns for eight days with bows and crossbows, shot and killed more than 10,000 Huns cavalry, and was finally captured and surrendered because he ran out of ammunition and food.

    Besides, in history, the Eight Banners Army fought against Zhungeer, and 4,000 Qing troops were besieged by Zhungeer cavalry.  Fu Erdan, the chief general of the Qing army, also formed a chariot formation to resist, and was able to maintain the chariot formation, firing guns all the way to break through the encirclement.  In the end, the chariot formation of the Qing army was defeated because the Zhungeer cavalry had large shotguns, and they could chase after horses and shoot with heavy muskets.  The failure of the chariot formation of the Qing army was not defeated by Zhungeer cavalry, but by Zhungeer's heavy muskets.

    From ancient times to the present, as long as there are elite infantry in formation, it is difficult to forcibly break through purely by cavalry.

    The Xiongnu cavalry won the attack by storm, provided that Li Ling's arrows were exhausted, and more than 10,000 Hun cavalry used their bodies to catch the arrows.

    In front of him was the tortoise array, behind him was Li Zheng, who was even more tortoise, and the Datong Cavalry Division was chasing him further north.

    Chahun Dorji clenched his fists, gritted his teeth and said, "Go back to Mobei! ?
