Although the Ming army only had 3,000 men, it also had half of the cavalry, so Xu Yingxu moved very quickly.
When Zhu Gui took the lead, he had already led his men to charge from behind.
The people of the Chaha tribe did not expect that there would be Ming troops here at all, and they were exhausted from the long-distance attack.
Moreover, the firepower of the Ming army also shocked them.
Under this ebb and flow, these thousand Mongolian cavalry collapsed at the first touch. In less than a moment of burning incense, the Ming troops on both sides had completed a tactical interlude.
All that was left to do was to divide and surround these Mongols.
On the other side, the other two Mongolian chiefs were still admonishing Hei Muhan.
"Chief Heimu, are you going to die without saving me? We are all Mongols."
"That's right, once this gets out, we will become traitors to the Mongols, and we will be hunted down by other tribes in the future."
But Hei Muhan looked ahead with a serious face, but said nothing.
After a while, when the battle was decided, he sighed and said: "We just made a deal with Mingren. If we turn back and attack now, how can our tribe survive with this deal?"
All winter long?”
Seeing that the two of them were still talking, he continued: "Wake up, the Mongol Empire has fallen apart. We should now make plans for the future of our tribe."
"You want to join the Ming people?" one of the Mongolian chiefs said angrily.
At this time, a Mongolian cavalryman next to Hei Muhan suddenly pulled out his gun and grabbed it. The muzzle of the gun was the Mongolian chief who had made "rude remarks" just now.
Another Mongolian chief saw this and wanted to escape, but was soon blocked back.
"Have you colluded with Akito for a long time? No wonder your Blackwood tribe has jumped from a small tribe to the largest tribe on the grassland."
Another chief shouted loudly.
"I am doing this for the future of the Mongols. King Dai is not a tyrant."
Hei Muhan said with some disappointment and some expectation.
"Traitor, you will not get the blessing of the grassland god."
At this time, the battle on the other side was coming to an end.
Only a dozen of the thousand Mongolian cavalrymen of the Chakha tribe escaped, one-third of them died, and the rest were captured.
Zhu Gui looked at the group of war horses and said with some emotion: "You still make more money from fighting."
Xu Yingxu was about to come over to report the situation. When he heard what he said, he immediately said: "But such an opportunity is rare."
After Zhu Gui listened to Xu Yingxu's report on the casualties, he rode to Heimuhan's side. He had already heard the soldiers report the situation here.
"How is the situation?" Zhu Gui asked Hei Muhan.
"Back to your lord, I have the situation under control, but I beg you not to harm these two chiefs."
Hei Muhan said in a deep voice.
"Okay, but those two tribes are going to move to Blackwood City. You should also imprison these two people for a while. They will naturally understand your good intentions in the future."
Zhu Gui said calmly.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." After Hei Muhan thanked him, he immediately returned to the grassland with the people and the motorcade.
Zhu Gui also returned to Datong Mansion after cleaning up the battlefield.
This time they were originally going to trade a thousand war horses, but they didn't expect that they captured more than 600 horses in this battle.
Zhu Gui was not stingy, and gave 80% of it to the guard station with a wave of his hand, while the rest was kept in the newly established horse farm in case of emergency needs.
Since the battle took place dozens of miles away from Datong Mansion, it did not alarm anyone at all.
However, Zhu Gui already knew that a war between the Mongols and the Ming army had broken out in the Ningxia region in the northwest.
I just don't know how the battle is going.
There was nothing about this battle in his historical memory. As a last resort, he could only send people there to investigate the situation.
And he was also prepared to send troops for support at any time.
But he didn't tell Zhu Di about this situation.
First of all, Zhu Di should have his own intelligence channels, and I believe he will learn about this situation soon. If Zhu Gui informs him in advance, he may only arouse the other party's suspicion.
Secondly, Zhu Gui did not want Zhu Di to send troops to assist. This was a rare opportunity to train troops.
Moreover, once meritorious service is established, Zhu Gui is likely to unlock the right to form the prince's bodyguard in advance.
So, after Zhu Gui got up the next day, he took Yan King Zhu Di to continue touring Datong Mansion.
Two days later, on September 21st, Zhu Di finally decided to return to the fiefdom.
Also accompanying him was Sun Shangqing, the censor of disaster relief.
Zhu Gui sent him more than ten miles outside Datong Mansion before returning.
Another day passed, and he finally got the battle report from the direction of Ningxia.
It turned out that Su Wang Zhu Kai had been at war with the Mongols for more than half a month, but the news was not spread in time due to traffic congestion.
The two nearby vassal kings have already sent troops, but the fighting is getting increasingly fierce, and it may be difficult to determine the winner in a short time.
After reading the intelligence, Zhu Gui immediately concluded that this was also caused by the Mongolian plunder caused by previous natural disasters.
It seems that he will also get an imperial edict in the near future and request to send troops.
Sure enough, a week later, the imperial edict arrived.
The imperial court ordered King Dai to send reinforcements to support King Su in his battle against the Mongols. The minimum requirement was to garrison a garrison of 1,000 people.
And I don't know whether it was to encourage or encourage Zhu Gui, Zhu Yuanzhang released some of his prince's guard rights, so that he could form an army of 1,000 men.
And these thousand people are not included in the scope of the royal family's private soldiers.
Zhu Gui couldn't help but feel happy after receiving the imperial edict.
He didn't expect that this battle would bring him so many benefits.
He immediately selected the strong men who were originally salt traders and some militiamen who were originally going to join the Chamber of Commerce into his new army.
And gave them a name "Yunzhou Army".
At the same time, Zhu Gui stuffed all the original one hundred soldiers of the government, except for the personal soldiers, into the "Yunzhou Army", and then selected all the soldiers of the government.
In this way, almost within a day, Zhu Gui's personal guard army had been established, which shocked the old eunuch who had not yet left after delivering the order.
Xu Yingxu was not surprised by this: "Your Majesty, the Emperor has given us one week to prepare. When do you think we should set off?"
Zhu Guidao: "Naturally, the sooner we set off, the better. However, the emperor asked us to send a thousand people, which is far from enough. Let's do this. In addition to the one thousand Yunzhou Army, the guard station will send another two thousand people to form a three thousand army."
A human cavalry force."
When Xu Yingxu heard this, his eyes immediately lit up: "Okay, I'll get ready right now."
Xu Yingxu left, but Zhu Gui showed a thoughtful look in his eyes.
Because what he was thinking at this time was how to follow this army to King Su's territory to fight the Mongols?
