Chapter 588 A murder case caused by a Beijing temple
The left is Huang, the right is Cang, and the thousand riders are rolling flat on the hill. In this picture described by Su Laopo, Emperor Chongzhen has no yellow on the left and no cang on the right, and there is always something missing.
However, the 100,000 elite cavalry behind Emperor Chongzhen made this picture that lacked the fun of hunting a little more solemn and countless blood.
The one who rushed to the front was the 20,000 elite cavalry of Xia Ezhe's troops, shouting the slogan "Fight for the Holy Emperor!", which made these killers pass through the Mongolian ten thousand horses under Batel's men, and also the elite cavalry of Liu Xingzuo and Zhang Zhiji.
Even Emperor Chongzhen felt a little confused. Could this kind of slogan be affected by war horses? Otherwise, why would they be so fast?
The war horses sprinted very quickly, and the distance was almost in the blink of an eye, leaving the tribe in front of them with almost no time to react.
Or it cannot be said that there is no time to react. After all, the distance is there, but when the strong men in the tribe are all drawn to war by Mosbaturkhan, the military protection power in the entire tribe is almost zero.
Especially when Mosbaturhan and others did not expect that the Ming army would suddenly split a large number of cavalry to attack Hang Aishan all the way.
The naked massacre was a nearly unarmed herder on one side, and the other was a hundred thousand elite cavalry armed to the teeth. This battle was destined to be a one-sided massacre at the beginning.
Xia Ezhe would not care too much. No matter who is the opposite, whether it is the gray-haired old man or the young woman holding a baby in her arms, Xia Ezhe's choice is to slash it with one knife, and then grin and look for the next target.
The 20,000 elite cavalry of the Chahar tribe who was led by Xia Ezhe was almost exactly the same as Xia Ezhe. His cruel and bloodthirsty behavior made the other eighty thousand elite cavalry look at him.
But Xia Ezhe didn't care, and the 20,000 Chahar tribes didn't care, and he regarded the grassland tradition that was inferior to the wheel and did not kill.
What are these people?
The emperor's hawk and dog vowed to be the sharpest butcher knife in the hands of the Holy Emperor. They should have eliminated all Xiao Xiao enemies who are in front of him, even if they give their lives!
Emperor Chongzhen, who was stabbing people while secretly paying attention to the situation on the battlefield, couldn't help but nod.
A guy like Xia Ezhe who has been brainwashed into a crazy believer is terrible, but it is also very useful.
Such people will become the most loyal lackey under their command. As long as they are used well, they will be the sharpest knife.
However, the premise of all this is based on one's own invincible myth, and even more so when one is still alive, no one can guarantee what these killers will become after they die.
Especially after the new emperor ascended the throne, will there be enough prestige to suppress these guys?
Just like a Japanese slave, his attitude towards the Song Dynasty was like a god-like father, but later he was the one who bit the most backwards on the Central Plains.
Xia Ezhe and his subordinates were also the same in front of him.
If you are alive, among all the foreign tribes who surrendered to the Ming Dynasty, Xia Ezhe is the one who can reassure you the best and the one who can do the best.
When it comes time to ask Long Yubintian, this kind of mad dog must be carefully considered whether to take it away together. If anything is wrong, he must not be kept.
Shaking his head, Emperor Chongzhen threw these ridiculous thoughts out of his mind.
Xia Ezhe is older than him. Even if he dies, he will probably die in front of him. As long as his 20,000 elite cavalry under him are disbanded and organized into various garrisons, it is probably impossible to cause any storm.
It's really a bit nonsense to think about these messy things after death now.
Stimulated by the crazy killing of Xia Ezhe's troops, the remaining 80,000 elite cavalry began to slash and kill like crazy. It was originally a normal siege. After Xia Ezhe's mad dog was deviated from the style, it completely evolved into a massacre.
Emperor Chongzhen wanted to curse people.
The tribe in front of me is quite large. Through the overwhelming tent and cattle and sheep, it seems that there must be 70,000 to 80,000 people.
The problem is that there are less than ten of them here, and they have killed them in total!
Forget it, there are actually only two specific numbers, and the rest were snatched by those who were so angry that they were robbed of their heads.
How will you record yourself in future history books?
"The emperor led 100,000 elite cavalry to attack Tatars, and killed two enemies, and the Tatars were pacified."
Then what?
If you cut two people to death, your behavior will be distorted into the entire army killing two Tatars in total, so is it a waste of money?
Just like Emperor Zhengde's personal expedition, he killed two Mongolian soldiers in the same Spring and Autumn style.
...
Batu Mengke was very nervous.
What he did, he still felt a little forced to abandon the 20,000 cavalry of the Right Route Army, and Mosbatur Khan who used to trust him the most, and ran away with 30,000 cavalrymen.
Although he later received the news that Mosbatuhr Khan also ran away, Batumuk had no idea of looking for Mosbatuhr Khan again.
There is no difference between my behavior and deserter. If there is a difference, it means that I will be a deserter with 30,000 cavalrymen, and I will be even more guilty.
Now I go back to find Mosbatur Khan. The biggest possibility is that I will be dragged to death by a war horse on this vast grassland and become the nutrient for this grassland.
Even if Mosbatu Khan was ill-fated, or if he was concerned about the 30,000 elite cavalry who followed him to become a deserter and let him go for the time being, he would definitely find a future account in the future.
Batu Mengke naturally could not make such a low-level mistake.
In fact, in order to save their lives, these 30,000 cavalrymen did not have a conflict with the cavalry under Mosbaturkhan once or twice, but both sides tacitly suppressed them.
But what good end could Batu Mengke lead 30,000 cavalry to swim up the grassland? Supplies? Food and grass? Family?
All are gone. If these problems are not solved, all of them will be gone. There is basically no way out except going all the way west.
Of course, surrendering to the Ming Emperor may be a good choice, but who dares to make up his mind to take this path?
What if the dog emperor was crazy and killed everyone after being disarmed?
No one dares to gamble because he can't afford the price after losing the bet.
Fortunately, Batumuk is familiar with the location of Hang Aishan and knows that this area can be regarded as one of the last nomadic concentration areas of the entire Tatar, so when you come here to try your luck, you will likely get what you want.
For example, population, supplies, and things that you are in urgent need now may be obtained here.
But when Batu Mengke arrived at Hangai Mountain, where were there any tribes? Where were there any flocks of sheep that fell on the ground like white clouds in the sky?
Apart from the dead cattle and sheep all over the ground, all that was left was the embers of blue smoke that popped up from time to time, and an extremely huge hill made of soil and corpses.
This small hill is inconspicuous in front of Hang Aishan, and it can be said that it has no sense of existence at all.
But the top of this building that doesn't know whether it should be called a mountain bag or a land bag, the layers of human heads, open or closed eyes, were looking at it, accompanied by an expression of extremely painful facial expression, which was extremely strange no matter how you look at it.
Batu Mengk wanted to close his eyes and then turned around and left the hell, but the wooden monument he saw outside his eyes forced himself to open his eyes.
Batu Mengke knew Chinese characters, just like the people who were on the rise of Jiannu's Meleezhen could basically recognize Chinese characters, and many senior Tatar officials also knew Chinese characters.
Whether you know Chinese characters is regarded as the dividing line between civilization and barbarism in the East. As for things like Basiba Mongolian New Characters, they are garbage that only barbarians can use. No one cares, including the Mongolians themselves at this time.
It looks fucked, but that's the truth.
"The Emperor Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty told the people of the Tatars that the Tatars Mosbatuer tribe did not know the number of days, and raised troops without any reason. I accepted the orders of heaven to punish the people and punish the gangs of the Mosbatuer tribe in Yanran, and then built Jingguan to clearly show the world that those who dared to invade the army would be punished without mercy!"
Jingguan! This is what the Han people call Jingguan!
Batu Mengke felt a cool air rushing directly from the soles of his feet to the top of his head, and finally he felt like he had fallen into ice water, and it was completely cold from the inside to the outside.
I have seen this kind of thing in the books of the Han people, and I have even heard of more than a dozen of them being erected in Chahar before. However, no matter how I think about it, I never expected that I would see a real and huge Jingguan in this place at this time.
Batu Mengk's first reaction was to run away quickly.
Not because of the Ming army, but because of Mosbatuhr Khan.
At this time, I appeared here, and behind me was a huge Jingguan. Will Mosbatur Khan calm down and look at the wooden sign in front of him? Will he have the patience to listen to his own solution?
It is impossible to think about it with your butt. Tens of thousands of Tatar tribes have been built into Jingguan. Maybe there will be Mosbatur Khan's family. If he doesn't go crazy, he will be blessed by his ancestors. Can he calm down and think about the problem quietly?
The fact is just as Batumuk expected. Mosbatuhrhan was indeed going crazy. The first decision he made in his heart was to kill Batumuk, regardless of whether the tragedy in front of him was caused by him.
Looking at Mosbatuhr Khan who was staring at him, a smile that was even more ugly than crying came out on Batumuk's face and said, "Da Khan, listen to me, all this was done by the Ming army!"
Mosbatur Khan said coldly: "Ben Khan believes that all this is done by the Ming army. So, did you lead the Ming army here?"
Batu Mengke pointed to the sky and sweared: "The heaven of immortality is above. No matter how I, Batu Mengke, am, will never be able to surrender to the Ming army as a lackey! It is even more impossible to lead them to Hang Aishan!"
Mosbathur Khan's expression still did not change at all. He stared at Batumuk and said, "You betrayed Ben Da Khan and now you are here again. If Ben Khan does not kill you, I am afraid that Changshengtian will blame you! Kill!"
With Mosbathur Khan's roar, the Tatar cavalry, who had long been unable to hold back, began to activate their war horses and rushed towards the cavalry following Batumuk.
The cavalry behind Batumuk were like the cavalry under Mosbaturkh. They were all Tatars and were both cavalrymen. They all knew what kind of power the war horses would have when they sprinted, so they naturally could not sit and wait for death.
Batumuk knew that this matter was impossible to be good today. If you want to solve today's problem, one of them must die between him and Mosbatuhr Khan.
In other words, the 30,000 cavalry behind him and the more than 150,000 cavalry behind Mosbaturkhan must have one of them killed.
Then the question is.
After being defeated by the Ming army, Mosbatur Khan could obtain supplies through various tribes, and even incorporated a trace of warriors, expanding the number of people to 150,000 again.
However, my subordinates were still the 30,000 they had at the time, and even hundreds of them were lost. In addition, it was difficult to get supplies along the way, so my strength is now retreating again and again.
In this case, you have to fight to the death with Mosbatur Khan?
Batumuk wanted to run, but he had nowhere to run. The cavalry behind him had already raised their speed, and the same was true for the cavalry on the opposite side. If he had a slight slower, he might be stepped into a meat paste by the cavalry on both sides!
From 150,000 to 30,000, the cavalry behind Batu Mengke was quickly drilled through when both sides crossed, and the entire formation became a bit sparse.
In the array of 150,000 cavalry under Mosbaturhan on the opposite side, although the casualties will definitely not be small, they are not the same as those in Batumuk.
There is no big difference between 150,000 and 20,000 people, but it is obvious that 30,000 people die in the same way!
If possible, Batu Mengke would like to turn his horse and run away again, just like when he fought with the Ming army before.
However, in this situation where there is only one way to die if you don’t fight to the death, the cavalry following Batu Mengke still held the saber in their hands tightly, moved closer to Batu Mengke, and re-formed the arrow formation.
The war horse on Batu Mengke sniffed impatiently, and his right front hooves kept digging the grass, waiting for the master's orders at any time.
The light of his eyes flashed past the cavalry behind him, and Batu Mengk once again raised the saber in his hand.
There is no way out, so fight to the death!
Both sides were in arrow formations, and high-speed horses roared past each other, taking away fresh lives.
In this world, death is the fairest thing. No matter who is, no matter how high or the amount of wealth, there is a day of death, and it is only time for a while.
Just as Lu Xun once said, no one can leave this world alive!
On the distant hillside, Emperor Chongzhen blew up a little bored and laughed: "Zhang Aiqing, how can we help Batu Mengke? It would be too boring if he could die in the hands of Moser Batu Khan."
