Turigen is a herdsman, an ordinary herdsman under Xin Ai Huang Taiji's tent.
His name Turigen means "fast" in Mongolian, and it was not given by his Abu. It was given by Borha Rabbit when he represented his lord Borha Rabbit in a horse racing meeting and won the first place.
Named.
Mr. Rabbit is stupid and chose the name very directly, but the name Turigen is not uncommon among Mongolians, so Turigen has been called this name since then.
Turigen has good riding skills, but his background is very humble. Even if he won the prize, he did not gain much benefit and was still just a horse explorer. Of course, this has something to do with his good riding skills - riding fast is not something that can be done except for riding fast.
Apart from horses and equestrianism, a very important point is the lightness of the body. If a man is too light, it usually means that he is short, thin and lacks strength.
So Tu Rigen is not only an ordinary scout, but he is always bullied by others. For example, today, the rain had just stopped and others were still waiting for the ground to dry before going out, so Tu Rigen was sent out to explore the surrounding situation.
However, what surprised Turigen was that in the past, the explorations were mainly on the east side, and occasionally the south side, but today it was weird, because his mission was to explore the west side of the tribe.
west?
Turigen was full of doubts, what was there to explore in the west? It was the territory directly under the jurisdiction of the royal court. Could it be that the Great Khan would come to attack Huangtaiji again?
Oh, no, Dahan has died.
Isn't this even more strange? The Great Khan is gone, who can come from the west to fight Huang Taiji?
Turigen thought that his superiors might have heard wrongly, but when he thought about it again, even if his superiors heard wrongly, it was not something he could control. If he spoke carelessly, he might even get a beating.
Forget it, just go to the west, just go for a walk and come back to report that nothing happened.
People don't like wandering around on the grassland after the rain, but horses like it very much. The new spring grass washed by the rain is just what the horses like. Unfortunately, the grass nearby is not very good, and it is not the horse's favorite.
There was alfalfa, but the horse under Turigen's crotch still ran like a joy, and then found a piece of dense grass and started to eat it with big mouthfuls.
Turigen let it eat for a while, then patted its neck and said with a smile: "Okay, Nisgebaz, let's go for a walk in the front first, and I'll let you eat your fill when we come back."
Nisgebari means "Flying Tiger" in Mongolian. This horse belongs to Borha Rabbit, but Borha Rabbit prefers to play human-making games in his tent on weekdays and has little interest in riding horses, so although
He has many good horses, and most of them are usually left to some tribesmen with excellent riding and horse-raising skills to take care of him on his behalf. This is how the Nisgebari came to Turigen.
Nisgebaz seemed to have regarded Turigen as its master. After hearing Turigen's words and feeling the movements and strength of his hands, it snorted slightly to show dissatisfaction, but then raised its head obediently.
, and trotted forward.
Since Turigen believed that there was no need to explore westward, his horse was not very fast and would be controlled to move at a speed that would not make Nisgbarz tired.
This move saved his life and even made a great contribution to Xin Ai to a certain extent.
Because after walking forward for about an hour, he came to a small slope and suddenly looked ahead and was stunned.
At the forefront of the horizon, a long and huge cavalry appeared - because of the spring rain, the ground on the grassland was a little muddy. This huge cavalry did not raise dust all over the sky, and the sound of horse hooves was not easily heard due to the mud.
It was far away, so Turigen didn't notice the cavalry ahead until he happened to run up the hillside.
How could such a large cavalry team come?
Turigen was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly his hair stood on end!
Oops, there's really an enemy attack!
Turigen's first reaction was to go back and recover, but just as he turned around, he suddenly remembered that he couldn't go back now because he didn't even know who the other party was. What if it wasn't an enemy attack but came to visit Huang Taiji?
Where is a certain distinguished gentleman from?
If I rush back and say there is an enemy attack, and then alert Huang Taiji to gather his troops, but the other party just comes to pay a visit to Huang Taiji, then I may not be able to save my head!
Turigen quickly rode his horse down the hillside, jumped off the horse, and asked Nisgbar to kneel down. He also lay down in the grass and observed the horse team on the opposite side.
The cavalry was getting closer and closer, and Turigen finally saw clearly the flag of the leading cavalry forward.
Although Turigen was illiterate, he knew the totem coat of arms, and he discovered that the person coming was Qataiji.
Chatterjee?
This is the first warrior of Tumut. Besides the Great Khan, who else can make him a forward?
Hmm...could it be Zhongjin Hatun? Now Zhongjin Hatun should be the regent, so it must be her.
Why did she send Chataiji here? Did she ask Huang Taiji to quickly go to Guihua City to take over the throne? Oh, this is good news!
But that's not right. Judging from the position of Qataiji's flag, it seems that he is just the vanguard, and the huge cavalry behind is the central army... But who has such a huge cavalry? Even if Zhongjin Hatun mobilized the troops directly under the Khan Court
It seems that the Great Khan’s Guards don’t have that many talents.
Could it be that all Taiji provinces have troops?
However, it seems that there won’t be such a big battle to take Huang Taiji to the throne, right? This... looks like we can even fight against Chahar!
After thinking vaguely for a long time, Tu Rigen still couldn't figure out what was going on, but he suddenly felt something was wrong in his heart - this cavalry had murderous intent!
Murderous aura can only be felt by people who have been on the battlefield for a long time. When Turigen was in his teens, he went on several expeditions with the Khan and could feel it a little, so his hair stood on end again.
No, this cavalry team is not here to pick up Huang Taiji to succeed him, but to fight!
Without saying a word, Turigen patted the horse's buttocks to make Nisgbarri stand up. Then he immediately got on the horse, clamped down hard on the horse's belly, shouted: "Drive~!" and turned around and ran away.
Since there was a surprise attack, Qataiji did not send any scouts who might alert the enemy. The person leading the attack was Qataiji himself - he was a great marksman with excellent eyesight.
Perhaps it was the natural reaction of a marksman, but Turigen was spotted by Chaterji as soon as he moved.
Qia Taiji's eyes narrowed and he immediately stared at Turigen's movements, his bright eyes unblinking.
When he saw Turigen turning the horse's head, Qiataji had already raised his whip decisively, pointed at Turigen's position, and shouted: "First cavalry exploration team, capture that man for me!"
The first cavalry exploration team was not far from him. Although they did not even see anyone in the direction where Chatterji raised his whip, they would never doubt Chatterji's eyesight. Therefore, without saying a word, more than 20 cavalrymen immediately patted their horses.
Get out of the queue and chase towards the east.
Tu Rigen's previously slow and relaxed attitude was rewarded at this time. The Nisigbar under his crotch had warmed up and was not tired from running. He immediately started running wildly following Tu Rigen's instructions.
In fact, this horse is the best Ujimqin Thousand-Li Horse. Even if it ran for a while, it would not be a big problem, but... when it comes to exploring horses, sometimes a little advantage is important!
The horses sent by Chaterji to explore the country are not bad either, but Nisgbar is one of Borha Rabbit's horses, and Tuzgen is an athlete who has won the first place in the horse racing competition. Where are they?
Can you catch up?
It only took them half a stick of incense to chase them, but they lost their way - they wouldn't be out of sight on the grassland, but if they could see that they couldn't catch up, they could be called lost.
The scouts were frightened and angry, but they had no choice but to go back and report back to Chaterji.
However, Qataiji didn't need them to revive. With his eyesight, he could already tell that they couldn't catch up with the person in front of them before they ran very far.
So while Qia Taiji sent people to immediately notify Dacheng Taiji to speed up the entire army and shorten Xin Ai's preparation time as much as possible, he directly took his 6,000 subordinates to speed forward - speeding up does not mean running wildly, he must also maintain a certain amount of horsepower.
, so as not to run to the Xin'ai tribe but be unable to fight.
He knew that he would definitely leave Dachengtaiji and others behind, causing him to face the enemy alone, but Qiataiji was not nervous.
He is not afraid of confronting Xin Ai, and more importantly, he is not going to rush into the battle. In fact, he had already thought about it when he shouted and asked his subordinates to speed up with him. His main task here is
Disrupting Xin Ai's actions to gather his troops, he was unable to successfully gather all his cavalry together.
Han Naji was also shocked when he received the news, and thought to himself: Xin Ai actually sent someone out to investigate just after the rain stopped for a while. It seems that he was not unprepared.
Of course he didn't know that Xin Ai was not only prepared, but had also contacted Tumen Khan to send troops together.
However, Xin Ai did not expect that Han Naji and others would send troops to attack him so decisively, so he just gathered all the tribes under his command closer, and did not engage in "general mobilization" - that is, gathering all the herdsmen who can fight.
And organized according to Mongolian tradition.
Han Naji quickly ordered to follow Chaterji, and at the same time sent someone to tell Magui to speed up too.
He still didn't let Ma Gui go to fight, but he was afraid that Ma Gui's crane would be hung too far and someone would trick him. Although the possibility was very small, Han Naji didn't want any problems to occur.
He always felt that since the Gao family's cavalry accounted for 3,000 of the 4,000, this cavalry represented high pragmatism, and the highly pragmatic cavalry were not raised by the Ming Dynasty. Every loss of one was a loss.
Be pragmatic and put in your own money.
Therefore, based on his own inference and other people's inferences, Hannaji feels that he is highly pragmatic and certainly does not want to lose his own money.
If you look down from the air, as one person turns around and flees, the entire army of more than 50,000 people speeds up and points directly at Xin Ai's old camp!
