【Chapter 636】Open the killing ring and retreat decisively

Helin is the final destination of the Leopard Cavalry's trip. If there is a chance, Gao Jie hopes to take Helin down and then completely destroy it. Aren't the Tatars the best at massacres and looting? Our Han army also wants to have a feat of massacre. However, he also knows that this idea is not realistic. With the current strength of the Leopard Cavalry, there is no chance to do it. However, even if it cannot be done this time, it will be done next time.

This time, the Leopard Cavalry went north. In addition to chasing Morigen and accumulating experience in marching in the desert, Gao Jie also added a very important task to himself, which is to explore the reality of the Tatars' nests. According to the Tatars' guide, the Tatars' nests were all near Helin. The westernmost part was Helin, the middle was Hulanhushiwen, and the easternmost part was Bales and Tan. If the Leopard Cavalry could first clean up Helin, it would be a huge shock to other Tatars. Even Kent Khan Mountain would be greatly shocked.

"It's still about three hundred miles away." said the Tatar guide attentively.

Gao Jie immediately ordered the troops to speed up the marching speed and advance rapidly towards Helin. After coming out of the desert, there are benefits and disadvantages. The advantage is that there is no need to worry about logistics issues. The disadvantage is that they may be discovered by the Tatars at any time, thus giving the Tatars time to prepare. Moreover, over time, the large Tatars troops will gather together. Therefore, the actions of the Leopard Cavalry must be fast and accurate, and there must be no delay at all.

Helin, also known as Harhelin or Harhelin in later generations, was a very important Tatar settlement in northern Mo. Its long history can be traced back to the Huns 1,500 years ago. The old nest of Zhuangtulai tribe, one of the most powerful tribes of the Tatars, was in Helin. Zhuangtulai tribe is one of the three major tribes of the Tatars. Historical research in later generations shows that the population of this tribe may be 200,000.

When the Mongolian Khanate was rising, Genghis Khan, Ogedei, Guiyou, Mongge and other great khans were stationed here to handle the government affairs of the Khanate. At that time, the Mongolian Khanate was capitalized by Helin. At that time, Helin was also at its peak. Before the Mongolian death in the battle, the Mongols gathered around Helin at one time exceeded 300,000. For the Mongolians, the population of 300,000 was already quite terrifying.

It was not until later that the Mongols and Yuan troops invaded the Central Plains and migrated the capital to the Central Plains. A large number of Mongols also arrived in the Central Plains. The capital status of Helin gradually lost and was not as glorious as before. However, later, the Mongols lost the Central Plains and were forced to retreat to Helin and regained Helin as the capital again. As a result, this place became the target of the Ming army's attack.

It is said that Li Wenzhong, Lan Yu and others once led elite Ming cavalry to the east, killing the Mongols to the fortunately scattered, and once occupied Helin. There are books that say that the fire in Helin was burned for twenty-five days. It can be seen that the Ming army did occupy Helin. However, such records are more like legendary novels. In fact, whether the Ming army once occupied Helin has always been a mystery.

The ancients described war words too exaggerated, and there was often a saying that one cannon was decaying for ten miles. If you believe it, you will definitely be scared to death. The powerful objects of later generations, such as millimeters, cannons, cannot be decaying for ten miles. It is also quite vague for each location. Perhaps the same name is completely different from the locations in later generations. The Mongolians themselves would never admit that He Lin was once occupied by the Ming army and was completely burned by the fire.

Helin, in Turkic, means black gravel. The literal meaning is that there are many black stones around Helin.

According to later investigations and research, Helin is surrounded by the core area of ​​the Mongolian Plateau, with vast forests, midsummer and blooming flowers. According to the results of the investigation, this place should be very beautiful in summer. Of course, in this winter, there is nothing here.

After the Leopard Cavalry had walked north for about ten miles, the whistle cavalry came back excitedly and reported: "Sir, there is a Tartar tribe in front of them."

Gao Jie said coldly: "Kill! No living! Replenish supplies on the spot!"

The soldiers of the Leopard Cavalry immediately activated their war horses, whistling, waving their sharp sabres, or holding muskets to kill the Tatar tribes around them. The Tatars, who were caught off guard, were immediately caught off guard. They were completely unprepared, and they were not as good as wolves and tigers, as fierce as ferocious Leopard Cavalry? Soon, about 300 people in a small tribe were killed. Gao Jie meant that no one was left to live. However, the Tuyuhun people were truly implemented, and the Leopard Cavalry did not participate.

It has to be said that the Tuyuhun people are indeed a very qualified thug. Their fate is closely linked to the White Army. In order to seek credit from the White Army and to submit letters of resignation to the White Army, they acted very cruelly. As long as they were Tatars, they were killed, regardless of gender, age or age.

"Continue to move forward." Gao Jie shouted expressionlessly.

The Leopard Cavalry followed the middle area of ​​the two rivers and slaughtered and advanced together.

The Tatars who piled up the river and stepped out of the two sides of the river had no idea what was going on, and they had already fallen into a pool of blood. The muskets of the Leopard Cavalry, spitting out the bows and arrows and scimitars of foreigners, making them the souls of the land. The Leopard Cavalry became more and more active as they killed, but the Tatars became more and more panicked. In the past, every time the Tatars went south, they enjoyed slaughtering the Han people, without expecting that they would have such a day. Now, they finally tasted the taste of being slaughtered. After a day, the soldiers of the Leopard Cavalry briefly calculated that they had killed more than 3,000 Tatars.

It was the first time that Gao Jie's army had enough water, food and forage. All the Tatars' property was counted out and packaged and taken away. At the same time, the seized were also a large number of war horses. All useful materials were collected and taken away as much as possible. As for what could not be taken away, burn them if they could be burned, and destroy them if they could be destroyed, and they would never leave them to the Tatars. The Tatars' corpses were ignored. They would lie down, or throw them into the river to pollute the water source. In this way, they could effectively demonstrate to the Tatars.

However, it was impossible for the Leopard Cavalry to kill all the Tatars. After all, the Tatars were a nomadic people and they had great skills on horseback. When they found something wrong, they immediately took the escape action. When the Leopard Cavalry entered the middle of the Tower and Exit River, the Tatars around had already known that the Han army had arrived. In a panic, the Tatars hurriedly fled around. Their first choice was Helin.

Gao Jie had no choice but to order the troops to advance more. He wanted to rush to the area around Helin before the Tatar tribe reacted, slaughtered them violently, and then quickly and decisively withdrew the troops. The Leopard Cavalry currently has only 2,000 people, not tens of thousands but tens of thousands of Tatar Cavalry.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

In the empty desert, gunfire is constantly coming.

This is the leopard cavalry that is unscrupulously hunting the Tatars.

All the Tatars were included in the target of elimination. As long as they were targeted by the Leopard Cavalry, there was basically no chance of survival. Unless their riding skills were really, very good, and their luck was very, very good. As for the Tuyuhun cavalry, they were specifically behind, attacking the Tatars' old, young, women and children without leaving any one.

Five days later, the Leopard Cavalry successfully approached Helin.

At this time, some of the Tartar cavalry had already reacted.

The Zhuangtulai tribe had learned about the battle in the south from Morigen who had returned from fleeing. Obviously, they could not imagine how Morigen was defeated. The Tatars' Arrow God actually lost to the unknown white-clothed army? How could it be? As for Xu Xingxia, they didn't even know his name. However, Morigen's miserable appearance made them believe it. They learned the news that the Leopard Cavalry was coming.

"Huza!"

"Damn the damn dog!"

The Tatars started to shout and scold them in a furious manner.

With the shouts of the senior officials, the Tatar cavalry hurriedly began to assemble.

The arrival of the Leopard Cavalry greatly shocked them. The damn Han army was able to launch a surprise attack from this direction, which really surprised the Tatars. After the scouts of both sides exchanged fire, the Tatars realized the powerful combat effectiveness of the Leopard Cavalry. The Tatars' scouts, as soon as they contacted the Leopard Cavalry, were beaten to death by dozens of people.

Faced with the cold corpses of ordinary Tartars, the top Tatars finally understood. It turned out that Mo Rigen was actually a silver-like wax gun head that was strong outside and was dry. He could not see the scarf at all, so he would fail under the White Army.

This damn guy. At this moment, the gunshot of the Leopard Cavalry had already reached Helin.

"Damn it!"

"Kill them!"

The Tatars of the Zhuangtulai tribe were furious.

These Han troops actually crossed the desert and appeared in the places where they lived in the Tatar era, burning, killing and looting unscrupulously. It was simply abominable. With a command, the cavalry of the Zhuangtulai tribe rushed towards the Leopard Cavalry like a tide. They were determined to surround the Leopard Cavalry and eat them all in one breath.

However, at this time, Gao Jie had ordered the Leopard Cavalry to retreat quickly and decisively. The elite Tatar cavalry of the Zhuangtulai tribe had at least tens of thousands of people. He only had such a little force on hand, so how could he be the opponent of the Tatars? A hero would not suffer a loss in front of him. Of course, it was thirty-six strategies, and it was the best way to go.

"Chase!"

"Kill the Han Dog!"

The Tatars were really angry this time.

If this Han army was allowed to burn, kill, loot and loot in the core hinterland of the Tatars, and then leave leisurely, I am afraid they would vomit blood. If Changshengtian knew, they would definitely let them all go to hell as a punishment. The Tatars had not encountered such a shameful thing for more than a hundred years. They could not let the glory of the Tatars be destroyed in the hands of the White Army. Therefore, the Tatar generals who led the troops decided that even if they chased to Ningxia Town, they would completely eliminate this abominable Han army.
