Zhu Jianji handed the Dongfeng sniper rifle to Dai Yi, climbed onto a boulder, and looked down at the battlefield in front of him.
All the Oara tribes have collapsed.
Of the 10,000 cavalrymen of the Minkeli tribe, excluding those who were annihilated, the remaining three or four thousand were prostrate on the ground, not daring to make the slightest move.
The Zhunge'er tribe and Batu Erte were blown to pieces under the mortar fire. They were leaderless. The front army collapsed long ago. The rear army saw that the situation was not good and ran away first. The middle army then collapsed.
The soldiers at both ends of the fan-shaped formation of the East Palace Young Army have already attacked.
When the remnant soldiers of Zhunge'er tribe ran out of Yingzhong Gorge, if only half of them were left, they would be considered capable. Although the young army's horseback was bumpy when chasing, the intensive shooting of Dongfeng rifles could make up for the shooting accuracy.
And you don’t have to worry about chasing.
The enemy fled in a big rout. Even if the Dongfeng infantry did not use Dongfeng rifles and drew swords from their waists to pursue them, they would still be able to kill thousands of enemy troops in the narrow strip from the middle to the northwest exit of Yingzhong Gorge with minimal battle damage.
Down.
The situation is excellent.
Zhu Jianji's heart was agitated.
Done!
Ten thousand Donggong infantry troops versus fifty thousand Mobei cavalry.
Big win!
A victory that has never been seen before.
Even if Wang Xuance can conquer a country by himself, it cannot be compared with today's victory.
Today's battle is a serious battle between the two sides, without any plot or strategy. It is a tough battle fought by relying on one's own combat power. It is a battle that vindicates the name of the Central Plains Dynasty's army.
Win more with less.
To fight head-on.
Zero battle losses, defeated 50,000 cavalry!
After today, the monarchs and ministers of the Ming Dynasty, no matter who they are, will no longer have the confidence or qualifications to point out their own reform and development of the Ming army, and the research and development of firearms, and there will no longer be any resistance!
The war will truly enter a new era starting from today.
But the war is not over yet.
Only after defeating the Zhunge'er tribe among the Oara tribes, as well as the Duerbot tribe, as well as the Maoli children and the Jurchens, and after the Donggong young army completed the victory of sweeping the front line outside the pass, was the peak moment when the world looked at them.
Wang Yue did not lead his army in pursuit.
He wanted to guard the prisoners and protect His Highness the Crown Prince.
The soldiers of the East Palace disarmed all the surrendered Mikeli tribe and the captured Zhunge'er tribe, then drove them together and kept them under strict guard.
Wang Yue led his people to meet Zhu Jianji.
Zhu Jianji went down the mountain.
Dai Yi and other eunuchs were very calm.
They are familiar with the Dongfeng series of firearms and have already foreseen today's battle situation.
But Duke Cheng Zhu Yi never expected to see such a situation.
Following Zhu Jianji, he was still immersed in shock.
Zhu Jianji asked Wang Yue, "How many were captured and surrendered?"
Wang Yue said: "All the remaining troops of the Minkeli tribe surrendered, about 4,000 people. This is because they surrendered quickly. If they surrendered slower, if only 2,000 people survived, it would be the failure of our Dongfeng Rifles."
He added: "More than 3,000 people from the front army of Zhun Ge'er tribe were captured and more than 2,000 people escaped."
It collapsed too quickly.
While the front army of Junger's tribe was still charging, Batu Erte died. As soon as the rear army and the middle army ran away, the front army also quickly imitated the Min Keli tribe, dismounted, abandoned their swords and arrows, and lay prone on the ground waiting for the Ming Dynasty.
Disposal of the Army.
Zhu Jianji had a headache, "There are nearly eight thousand prisoners."
How to solve it?
Eight thousand people, even if they eat, they will make themselves poor!
or……
Learn from nothing?
When Wang Yue saw His Highness the Crown Prince's murderous intent, he shuddered and said hurriedly: "We can recruit them, rectify them, and make them a force like the Duoyan Three Guards."
Zhu Jianji said nothing, "Who will lead the army is a question."
Wang Yue pointed to the distance in the northwest direction of Yingzong Gorge, "Your Highness, look, there is an army there that has not moved from the beginning to the end. When Chen Qi and Zhao Er led their troops to pursue them, they also tacitly moved away from their positions.
There is obviously some conspiracy."
Zhu Jianji took a quick look, but it was a bit far away and couldn't see clearly.
Reach out.
Dai Yi handed over a telescope.
Well, this is a gadget developed by the Donggong Military Research Institute. The design was drawn by Zhu Jianji himself. The Donggong Young Army has more than a hundred households and is equipped by all the generals.
Especially scouts, everyone is equipped with this new equipment.
Zhu Jianji watched for a while and asked Wang Yue, who was also observing the troop, "It seems to be the Torgut tribe?"
I have a very fond impression of this tribe.
If they are really from the Torgut tribe, their favorability will skyrocket again.
Wang Yue said: "It is indeed the Torgut tribe."
Zhu Jianji put down his telescope and said to Duke Cheng Zhu Yi: "Gong Cheng, go over and ask what their leader means. If you want to seek peace, bring him here to see you."
Zhu Yi accepted the order.
Zhu Jianji looked at the prisoners, "Who is the general of the enemy's vanguard force?"
Wang Yue said: "The leader of the Mekeli tribe is Jiaslan. This man reacted quite quickly. If he hadn't made the cavalry of the Mekeli tribe give up charging and abandon their horses and surrender, all the ten thousand people in the Mekeli tribe would have been buried."
A foreign country."
"His Highness arranged to leave behind the vanguard general of the enemy's vanguard force, so we did not shoot him. However, this person is the third son of Ye Xian and has a special status. I am afraid that he will not be used by our Ming Dynasty."
Zhu Jianji chuckled, "Really?"
He found a random stone and sat down, and said to Wang Yue: "Go and mention Jiaslan."
After a while, Garthland arrived.
Kneeling on the ground, anxious.
Zhu Jianji ignored him for the time being.
When Zhu Yi, Duke of Chengguo, returned with the leader of the Torgut tribe, Kuerdai dismounted his horse, knelt down and saluted, and shouted in Ming Dynasty Mandarin: "Kurdai, the guilty minister, has met His Highness the Crown Prince."
Zhu Jianji was speechless, "You are the leader of the Turgut tribe. From the fourth year of Jingtai to the eighth year of Jingtai, have you ever stayed in the capital of the Ming Dynasty?"
When he was in Hami Guard, Hang Yu talked about Kuerdai.
Courtet immediately said: "Yes!"
Zhu Jianji was speechless, "Excuse me, Kuerdai, you and your Torgut tribe are watching the fun behind you. You've seen enough. Let's talk about it. I want to hear how you, the person standing on the opposite side, feel."
Look at today's war and its impact."
Kuerdai was silent for a long time, and then slowly said: "From now on, there will be no smoke in the Great Wall of Ming Dynasty for thousands of miles!"
Zhu Jianji was stunned for a moment.
Then he burst into laughter and said, "You have some discernment. You are indeed a talented person who has studied in Ming Dynasty."
Looking at Garsilan who was kneeling on the ground, "The third son first?"
Jia Silan nodded, still not daring to raise his head.
Zhu Jianji asked: "Are you convinced?"
How dare Gasilan say no?
Zhu Jianji said to Wang Yue: "Just clear the battlefield. After the pursuers return, reorganize the army and quickly move eastward. Once supplies and ammunition arrive, immediately launch an attack on Dulbert's 50,000 men."
After Wang Yue left a few soldiers behind, he went to direct the cleaning of the battlefield.
All physical work was given to the prisoners.
Young sergeants are responsible for surveillance.
Zhu Jianji sat with a golden sword, and there were people guarding him. He was not worried at all. He looked at Gasilan steadily and said, "I'll give you two roads. The first one is definitely a dead end, so there is only one road. I will conquer you."
The remnant soldiers of the force department were disrupted and reorganized into the Turgut department, and they were used as a small army to attack the Turbot force."
Jiasilan hesitated...
He also wanted to bargain.
Kuerdai has already poured down the golden mountain to worship the jade pillar, "Wei ministers accept the decree!"
Fight first.
After the battle is over, His Highness the Prince will naturally reward what is due. When the time comes, the Turgut tribe will request to move to the Hetao area, and maybe it will become a part of the Ming Dynasty like the Uighur tribe in Hami.
Zhu Jianji stood up and said, "Cut it!"
Gasilan was never given another chance.
Already given the opportunity.
But you are useless!
Jiasi Lan was shocked and said in horror: "I am willing to take the blame and perform meritorious service. Please, Your Highness——"
Before he finished speaking, Zhao Mu cut off his neck with a sword.
Falling to the ground and twitching.
There was no sound after a while.
Zhu Jianji sneered, "There is never a shortage of talents under Gu's command!"
He said to Kuerdai: "Lead your cavalry of the Torgut tribe and assemble the four thousand remaining soldiers of the Minkeli tribe - if there are any who are unwilling to surrender, you can deal with them directly."
After a pause, "After your troops are reorganized, Bai Qingzhi will be appointed commander, and you will be appointed commander Tongzhi."
Courtet took the lead.
I don't think His Highness the Crown Prince is trying to seize power at all.
Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Ming Dynasty wants to incorporate the Torgut tribe, of course he must let his cronies control the military power. What's more, if Kuerdai wants to join the Ming Dynasty, how can he do it without showing some sincerity?
