Looking at Beiye Dharma King and Qianmu Dharma King, Dayan Khan's original worries about Li Huan naturally disappeared.
Dayan Khan was able to become a heroic figure and unify the Tatar tribe, so he was naturally a scheming person. It was just that he didn't know how powerful Li Huan was.
But knowing how powerful he was, Dayan Khan would naturally try his best to deal with such a threat like Li Huan.
Originally, the old lama who was following him could take action against Li Huan, but Dayan Khan never thought of sending the old lama to deal with Li Huan.
The old lama can be said to be the last line of defense around him. It is related to his own life and death, so Dayan Khan naturally attaches great importance to it.
Therefore, Dayan Khan sent a message to the Tibetan Tantric Sect, and the Tantric Sect sent Dharma King Qianye and Dharma King Beiye to come, which can be said to have solved Dayan Khan's concerns at once.
Raising the wine glass in his hand, Dayan Khan said to Beiye Dharma King, Qianmu Dharma King and others: "In this case, the strongest among the generals of the Ming army will entrust these Dharma Kings."
After the banquet dispersed, the old lama and Dayan Khan were left in the big tent.
At this time, Dayan Khan was not as drunk as before, his eyes were shining brightly, he looked at the map hanging in the tent, and slowly said: "After preparing for so long, it is time to go south.
Already."
The old lama sitting nearby nodded slightly when he heard the words and said: "What the Great Khan said is true. This time the Great Khan has summoned an army of more than 100,000 people. The consumption of food and grass alone is extremely staggering. If it is delayed any longer, I am afraid that the food and grass will be consumed."
The supply is out.”
Dayan Khan laughed loudly and said: "Don't worry, Master. I know it well. When our food and grass are gone, we will just grab it. Just grab a few cities and it will be enough for the men under my command."
As he spoke, Dayan Khan's eyes flashed and he said: "Besides, we don't know where the Ming army's grain and grass are stored. As long as we capture the city where the Ming army stores grain and grass, won't there be enough grain and grass?"
"
The old lama smiled and said: "The Ming army's coach Wang Yangming is also a thoughtful person, and he actually spread suspicion. If someone hadn't passed the news to us, we really wouldn't be able to determine where the Ming army's food and grass were stored.
In a city!”
After hearing what the old lama said, Dayan Khan nodded slightly and said, "Wang Yangming is indeed a person, but it's a pity that some people in the Ming Dynasty don't want him and that mighty general to return to Beijing alive."
While he was talking, he heard a voice coming from outside the tent: "Great Khan, there is important news."
Dayan Khan raised his eyebrows and said, "Come in."
I saw a strong man walking into the big tent with another person. This person was none other than the person who was sent by Liu Qing not long ago.
Liu Yi glanced at Dayan Khan, suppressed the nervousness in his heart, bowed to Dayan Khan and said: "Young Liu Yi, on the order of my master, came here to pay homage to the Great Khan."
Dayan Khan looked at a very ordinary-looking jade pendant held in Liu Yi's hand, a flash of light flashed in his eyes, and he said with a smile: "Tell me, how the Ming army dispatched its troops this time, in detail
Come."
Liu Yi took a deep breath and immediately told Dayan Khan word for word what Liu Qing asked him to write down.
Dayan Khan looked extremely calm after listening to Liu Yi's words.
After Liu Yi stopped, Dayan Khan took a deep breath, looked at Liu Yida and said, "Does your master have anything else to say to you?"
Liu Yi was stunned for a moment and shook his head subconsciously.
Dayan Khan said to the big man standing next to Liu Yi: "Ata!"
When Atta saw Dayan Khan's eyes, he immediately stretched out his big hand. Under Liu Yi's shocked gaze, the iron pliers-like big hands violently broke his neck, and the look of disbelief remained on his face until he died.
Dayan Khan looked at Liu Yi, whose neck was broken, and waved his hand, saying, "Drag him out and bury him. He is a loyal slave after all."
The old lama watched Atta leave, with a flash of wisdom in his eyes and said: "Khan, it seems that Wang Yangming has a big plan."
Dayan Khan chuckled and said: "His plan is actually very simple. It is nothing more than the main force to attract the Khan's attention head-on, and then wait for Yang Yiqing's troops and Li Huan's troops to form a three-sided encirclement on the Khan."
As he spoke, Dayan Khan said with a bit of disdain: "It's a pity that he shouldn't have divided his troops. He wanted to encircle Ben Khan. If Ben Khan didn't know, that's all. Now that he knows Wang Yangming's plan, then Ben Khan
Just give him a big gift in return."
The old lama smiled and said: "Is the Great Khan preparing to defeat each one?"
Dayan Khan was not surprised that the old lama guessed his thoughts. He chuckled and said: "Yes, since Wang Yangming divided his troops and gave me the opportunity to defeat him, how could I let him down?
What would Wang Yangming's reaction be if he learned that Li Huan and Yang Yiqing's troops were defeated by this Khan?"
On a carriage, Yang Yiqing, dressed in the uniform of the governor-general of three sides, was sitting opposite his closest aides, with a chessboard in front of him.
The two of them talked quietly while playing chess.
As Yang Yiqing's staff, Xu Zheng wore a green shirt and showed his elegance, but his chess playing style was extremely fierce. He was not like a scribe, but more like a decisive and decisive general.
At this time, Xu Zheng looked at Yang Yiqing and said: "Isn't Governor Wang afraid that after dividing his troops, the Tatars will seize the opportunity to defeat them one by one?"
Not long ago, Wang Yangming's military order was transmitted to Yang Yiqing's army as quickly as possible.
Yang Yiqing stroked his beard with one hand. After hearing this, he glanced at Xu Zheng and chuckled: "We can all think of problems, do you think the Governor can think of them?"
When Xu Zheng heard this, he only paused for a moment before nodding and said: "There are many generals from the Ming Dynasty gathered under the command of the Governor, and there are also a lot of civil and military help around him. It is impossible not to think of this."
Yang Yiqing chuckled and said, "In that case, what else do we have to worry about?"
As he spoke, Yang Yiqing looked serious and said: "Since the Governor has arranged it like this, there must be some intention and purpose for such an arrangement. We just need to cooperate with the Governor."
Xu Zheng fell down and laughed when he heard this: "With the help of Cao Xiong's tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, we can eat those 30,000 Tatars this time."
After listening to Xu Zheng's words, Yang Yiqing raised his eyebrows and said, "Have there been any changes in the troops of Oirat, Abal, and Mandula now?"
After Dayan Khan entered the customs, he assigned 30,000 troops from Oirat, Abal, and Mandu to stare at Yang Yiqing's troops, so that Yang Yiqing had to focus on the three troops of Oirat.
After all, the 30,000 Tatar knights, if not checked at all, may flow into Shaanxi like a torrent or even enter Shanxi, threatening the safety of the capital.
Wang Yangming sent Cao Xiong to lead tens of thousands of soldiers and horses to join Yang Yiqing's troops in order to deal with the threats from Oirat, Abal, and Mandula.
After all, if these three troops are not dealt with, they will eventually become a serious threat to the land of Shanshan and Shaanxi. Even if the army confronts Dayan Khan, it will have to be distracted by the surprise attack of Oirat and Abal.
Xu Zheng shook his head and said: "As usual, except for small-scale fighting, there is no abnormal movement."
A flash of light flashed in Yang Yiqing's eyes and he said: "Since there is nothing unusual among the three troops, just as usual, wait for Cao Xiong and General Cao's troops to arrive before fighting with them."
Yang Yiqing said with a smile on his lips: "I want to see if the three-sided encirclement of the Governor can be achieved. Will Dayan Khan seize the opportunity to defeat them individually, or will the three-sided encirclement severely inflict heavy damage on the Tatars.
"
Xu Zheng said with a smile: "If we add in the troops and horses of General Cao, the total number will be nearly 100,000. If Dayan Khan wants to defeat them one by one, I am afraid that his first choice target will be the troops of General Mighty.
.”
While speaking, Xu Zheng said with some curiosity: "Sir, you said that if the Governor did not consider the possibility of being defeated by everyone, he would send General Cao to strengthen our strength, but he only assigned Weiwu.
The general has 20,000 cavalry. Doesn’t this clearly tell Dayan Khan that if he wants to take action, he must attack the mighty general first?”
Yang Yiqing's eyes flashed with a hint of brilliance and said: "I can't guess what the Governor is thinking."
Li Huan, who was mentioned by Yang Yiqing and Xu Zheng, was currently leading his more than 20,000 troops to gallop like a torrent.

A group of sentinels rushed forward, led by Xu Ying, who was the commander of the army.
Xu Ying came galloping over and said to Li Huan: "General, there is Panshan Ridge in front of us."
Li Huan raised his brows when he heard this, and looked at the undulating hills in front of him from a distance. This hilly area was almost the most undulating hills they had seen along the way, but even so, it could only be regarded as average, not as good as some hills.
Qiulai is steep.
"We've arrived at Panshan Ridge."
After muttering softly, Li Huan took out the tips bag from his arms and said with a slight smile on his lips: "I wonder if Mr. Yangming has any clever ideas in this tips bag."
While speaking, Li Huan opened the brocade bag, revealing a small piece of silk with a few words written on it.
"Divide your troops on the spot...go straight into the grassland and mess up the rear..."
Seeing those few words, Li Huan was stunned for a moment, then realized what he said and couldn't help laughing.
"What a good Mr. Yangming, he is really good at calculating."
With a little force in his hand, the silk suddenly turned into powder between Li Huan's fingers.
Xu Ying looked at Li Huan's reaction curiously and couldn't help but said: "General, what did the Governor say?"
Not only Xu Ying, but also Chen Ang, Ren Ping, Li Hu, Lin Pingzhi and others all cast curious glances.
Li Huan slowly opened his mouth and said: "The Grand Governor has an order, ordering us to divide our troops. One part will use the banner of my general to confuse the Tatars, and the other part will rush into the grassland and disrupt their rear."
Everyone's eyes couldn't help but light up when they heard this, especially when they heard that they were entering the prairie, everyone looked at Li Huan with burning eyes.
Because Li Huan said that the more than 20,000 of them were going to divide their troops, so someone must stay to attract the attention of the Tatars, so only some of them could accompany Li Huan into the Tatar rear.
This is a feat of entering the prairie. Except for the previous period when Li Huan led a group of troops to the grassland and massacred the Huli tribe and the Heihe tribe, in recent decades, no one in the Ming Dynasty has led an army to enter the prairie.
ah.
A pair of eyes fell on Li Huan, and Xu Ying couldn't help but said: "General, I am willing to fight into the grassland with the general."
As soon as Xu Ying spoke, the others also spoke one after another, for fear that they would be left behind by Li Huan if they spoke too late.
Li Huan took a deep breath, glanced over the crowd, and slowly said: "Everyone, although it is a feat to enter the grassland, the grassland is the lair of the Tatars after all. Even if Dayan Khan mobilized a large number of
The elite of the prairie went south, but it is also extremely dangerous on the prairie. There is no doubt that many people will die in the prairie."
Then Li Huan added: "Of course, going to the prairie will gain merit, and staying to attract the attention of the Tatars will also gain merit. You can even attract the attention of the Tatars, and the merit will be even greater..."
Before Li Huan could finish his words, he heard Xu Ying shout loudly: "General, I'm not afraid of death, so let's fight with you into the prairie."
Li Huan coughed lightly, his expression straightened, and finally his eyes fell on Chen Ang and Ren Ping.
All he heard was Li Huan say: "Ren Ping, you have been following me for the longest time, so I will let you stay this time."
Although he was mentally prepared when he noticed Li Huan's eyes falling on him, he still couldn't help but feel a little disappointed after hearing Li Huan's words.
However, Ren Ping belongs to that kind of traditional general. Even though he was quite disappointed, since Li Huan chose him, Ren Ping corrected his mentality and bowed to Li Huan in a deep voice: "The final general will definitely live up to the expectations of the general.
.”
Patting Ren Ping's shoulder, Li Huan said to Chen Ang: "Chen Ang, you have a calm temper and your strength is among the best in the army. You can stay and cooperate with Ren Ping. As long as you don't fight hard with the Tatars, self-protection is still possible.
There’s no problem.”
Chen Ang's expression remained unchanged, he nodded slightly and said: "General, take your orders!"
When the others saw that Li Huan ordered Chen Ang and Ren Ping stayed, they all breathed a sigh of relief. Xu Ying even smiled at Chen Ang and said: "Chen Ang, don't worry, I will definitely kill more for you."
Destroy several Tatar tribes."
Upon hearing this, Chen Ang just glanced at Xu Ying lightly, as if he didn't care about Xu Ying, and Xu Ying was not annoyed by Chen Ang's attitude.
Li Huan waved his hand and said: "The army is divided into two. Ren Ping and Chen Ang, you continue to use the banner of my general, put up more flags, and try to make the momentum bigger."
After giving orders to Ren Ping and Chen Ang, the army was immediately divided into two. One part stayed to follow Ren Ping and Chen Ang, and the other part followed Li Huan and Xu Ying. They changed direction on the spot at Panshan Ridge and ran for a hundred miles.
Close the entrance of the well outside.
Jingkou Pass is almost a hundred miles away from Wuning Fort. It is still under the control of the Ming Dynasty. From here, you can directly enter the prairie. Moreover, Jingkou Pass is also within a radius of several hundred miles. Apart from Wuning Fort, it is the most convenient place to enter the prairie.
A convenient gateway.
By late April, the snow on the prairie had already melted, and it was still a lush scene at first glance.
Almost dozens of miles outside the pass is a land with abundant water and grass, and the tribes that can occupy this place are naturally quite strong.
It is said that the tribe Li Huan and others who occupied this lush land were no strangers. They were the Suder tribe who had been annihilated by Li Huan before.
The Suder tribe can be considered a large tribe in the upper middle class on the prairie. Relying on the lush land they occupy, there are almost 20,000 tribesmen. Leaving aside the old, young, women and children, they can mount their horses to kill the enemy.
Almost as many as nearly ten thousand.
Of course, there are only seven or eight thousand people who can be considered young and strong, and many of the rest are elderly people in their forties.
The Darul Flower took away almost all the young men of the Sudel Tribe. It can be said that this was the time when the Sudel Tribe was at its weakest. However, the Sudel Tribe was not without any defense power. They mobilized and defeated the half-grown men.
And there is no problem if the elderly people can pull together a few thousand troops.
After being on the road for several days, Li Huan and others all looked tired from the journey. Far from being sluggish, the nearly 10,000 soldiers and horses had extremely high morale.
These people had heard about the deeds of Li Huan who once led an army to massacre the Huli tribe and the Heihe tribe. They were all envious at that time. Now they can also enter the grassland under the leadership of Li Huan. It can be imagined that these people are more
Anticipation and excitement.
Xu Ying, who was covered in dust, could no longer recognize the demeanor of a noble son of the Duke's family. Even her face was covered with dust, and only her eyes were extremely bright.
At this moment, Xu Yingzheng was extremely excited and said to Li Huan: "General, we have found out clearly. There is the gathering place of the Sudel Department more than ten miles ahead. Now the Sudel Department has no defense at all. As long as we rush over in one wave.
, we can easily defeat the Suder tribe."
At this point, Xu Ying's words were trembling, and her eyes were filled with excitement and expectation as she looked at Li Huan.
Not only Xu Ying, but also the other generals looked at Li Huan with great anticipation.
Killing a tribe is a great military achievement. This time they only need to kill a few more grassland tribes, and they only need to go back alive and keep each one of them promoted.
Looking at this situation, if Li Huan did not agree, I am afraid these people would dare to rush directly to Su Deer's department.
Of course, Li Huan entered the prairie just to disrupt the prairie and cause trouble behind Dayan Khan. I believe that as he went on a killing spree on the prairie, once the news spread to the Tatar army, the morale of the Tatar army would inevitably be shaken.
.
Although Wang Yangming did not tell Li Huanming, Li Huan could now guess Wang Yangming's plan.
It is obvious that Wang Yangming really intends to give Dayan Khan a hard blow.
However, Li Huan also knew that the key to whether Wang Yangming could seriously injure Dayan Khan was whether he made enough noise on the prairie.
If he can really turn Dayan Khan's rear area upside down, even if Dayan Khan is in charge, the morale of the Tatar army will be in chaos. With Wang Yangming's methods and abilities, he will definitely teach Dayan Khan a profound lesson.
Taking a deep breath, Li Huan's eyes flashed with murderous intent. He held a spear that was 1.8 feet long and weighed hundreds of kilograms and shouted in a deep voice: "All the soldiers will follow this general to crush the Suder tribe."
