Chapter 28 Wood. Wild Fox. Zen Six: Death on Alxa

Everything was very calm, without the tense and critical appearance of the "national war".

When Huang Taiji's army was leisurely building the camp, Nikan's three camps were closed and the camp was not out, and he sat down and watched the enemy build the camp calmly.

During this period, even Huang Taiji, who had always been calm, was worried. Unfortunately, Nikan had no intention of taking advantage of the situation, which surprised him a little.

"Maybe it was Yue Tuo and Dorgon's army who were on the side were intimidating them, but when our army built a camp, it should be the best time for them to attack. If they missed this opportunity, their fortune would be reversed."

Huang Taiji's big tent had been built long ago. When he sat in the tightly defended tent around him, his heart, which was almost fainting for a few days, finally calmed down.

Speaking of his main business, there are some specialties.

The Zhenghuang Banner and the Inlaid Yellow Banner were divided into four camps, each with five thousand people, and each camp was led by Cheerge, Baiyintu, Tulai and Jishha of the Zhenghuang Banner. These four of them were also Gushan Ezhen of the Zhenghuang Banner.

Among them, Cherge is the third son of Eyidu, one of the five founding ministers. He is fifty-six years old this year. In fact, his eldest son, Chen Tai, who is 38 years old this year, is in charge of the soldiers;

Baiyintu is the son of Nurhaci's young brother Bayala, who is forty years old this year;

Tulai is the seventh son of Fei Yingdong, one of the five founding ministers. He is forty-three years old this year. His eldest son, Huisai, who is twenty-three years old this year, is also in the army;

Jishha is an outstanding representative of the Fucha family, the second only to Aisin Gioro in the Jianzhou Jurchen tribe, and is 38 years old this year.

Huang Taiji's tent is located in the middle of the four camps, guarded by the three thousand liang of Huangqi Bayala guards. The guard commander was Huang Taiji's Baoyi slave, Bayala Zhangjing of Zhenghuang Banner, and Fei Yanggu, from another big surname of Nara, Jianzhou Jurchen.

Fei Yanggu is 33 years old this year.

Among the five founding ministers, I had just mentioned Eyidu, Fei Yingdong, and Eyidu's other two sons Turge, Ildon assisted Dodo's Inlaid White Banner. Among the remaining three ministers, Anfeyanggu's son Daldei was assisting Haoge of Zhenglan Banner in Shengjing.

Huerhan's son Junta assisted Dorgon in Zhengbai Banner.

He Heli's son has many rituals, and they are all like the Zhenghong Banner who assisted Daishan in Liaoyang.

In Dorgon's Zhengbai Banner, in addition to the Junta, there were Eshuo of Dong'e's tribe and Aljin of the Irgen Juroluo family of Jianzhou Jurchen. He was in charge of Dorgon's Bayala guardians.

Aljin is Ashan's younger brother who died in the Battle of Ningguta.

In the Fenghongqi, which Yue Tuo was the banner owner, in addition to his eldest son, Luo Luohun, who was twenty years old this year, still had the Wanyan clan Chelb, who was in charge of Yue Tuo's Bayala guardians.

Cherbu was the son of Ye Chen who died tragically in Zhenjiang Fort.

Near Lishu City, there are almost all the elites of the Eight Banners of Manchuria that Huang Taiji can produce. If Jiergalang, Luke Dehun and Taiban Manchuria are all gathered here.

"Maybe he just wanted to fight me here, otherwise it wouldn't make sense."

Huang Taiji carefully considered his situation and finally sorted out Nikan's possible attempts.

"However, according to my detailed report, except for Xiao Alin and Enso, there are only more than 10,000 people from Yangdu near Lishu City. Xiao Alin's troops are controlled by Wu Keshan and Duoduo, and Enso's troops are controlled by Luke Dehun and Jiergalang. The possible 'stonishing soldiers' of this barbarian thief is the one from Yangdu."

"What can only do more than 10,000 cavalrymen do? Could it be that this guy mobilized all the herdsmen on the grassland?"

When Huang Taiji thought of this, he couldn't help but feel shocked.

"There are at least 80,000 herdsmen under this guy. If all of them are mobilized, there will be at least 50,000 cavalry!"

When he thought of the terrifying scale of "50,000 cavalry", Huang Taiji, who had always maintained a very good mood, tightened it again.

"This is a national war, it's really possible that this guy can mobilize all of them."

He couldn't help but cover his heart and took a while to recover. "I've been worried too much. The Manchus are not unaware of the combat power of ordinary herdsmen. If it were in the past, Yue Tuo's five thousand cavalry inlaid with red flags could sweep the Korqin area. This guy has always regarded himself very well and should not do this bad thing."

"In this case, my Qing Guang Manchu Essence Cavalry near Lishu City will have 40,000 people. Wu Zhenchaoha with the Han army flag is a 55,000 army, and they only have more than 20,000. What is this guy's idea?!"

As for the Alin Abe in Qingcheng, it should be controlled by Eziertu's army, so it is unlikely that it will be sent here.

After thinking for a long time, Huang Taiji could not think of what else could Nikan do, so he simply stopped thinking about it.

"It is said that Tong Tulai, Zhang Dayou, Li Lutai!"

With such a large formation, all of them are elite, it is naturally the best way to quickly defeat Nikan Camp. No matter how many tricks he has, everything will be a cloud in the face of powerful strength!

...

Ejina, translated into Chinese, means "Hei Water". It originated from the northern foot of the Qilian Mountains and flowed through Ganzhou (Zhangye City), the largest oasis plain in the Hexi Corridor in Ganzhou (Zhangye City). It then turned north and eventually poured into the river of Juyanhai. In the records of the Central Plains dynasty, it is also called "Luoshui".

At this time, the Black Water Basin and even the Juyanhai area were not as deserted as in later generations. It was originally a pasture for the Oirat tribe, but later it was occupied by the Ordos tribe after it was transferred to the northern border. Since the Wei Lat tribe and the Mongolian tribe of Dayan Khan, the two sides have fought in the Ejina and Alxa areas many times, and finally this place has become deserted.

Nowadays, there are only a few brave Mongolian tribes and Tibetan tribes nomadic here, and they are also one of the few "border and wastelands" and "three no-limit areas" in the late Ming Dynasty.

Judging from the later Qianlong Dynasty, the Turgut tribe who could accept the eastward return to the east, this place could still support many herders.

Eziertu's army has arrived in Ejina!

On this day, Eziertu took his personal guards to run around Juyanhai and Heishui, and he knew it after running.

"Although this place is not as good as the northern ranch of Tianshan Mountain, it is still possible to place 3,000 herdsmen. Although the Alxa wasteland in the east is also very deserted, there are many lakes, and it can also place thousands of herdsmen in total, and it can also be boiled salt, which is a good place."

Alaxan, the Mongolian word "colorful land", refers to blue, green, and white lakes spread in the desert, plus yellow deserts and green oasis, so this is the name.

Following Eziertu to inspect Hei Shui, Dajinon Aldal, the Huit tribe in Juyanhai, saw him looking at him with a bad face and felt a little awesome, "Does this guy want my Huit tribe to migrate here? Although this place is good, it is not enough to see compared to the north of the Tianshan Mountains..."

Seeing that Aldal's expression changed, Eziertu knew that he was scared, so he said softly: "Where did you think of it? This place is so deserted. How could Ben Khan be willing to let the Huite tribe move here? Ben Khan means that if there are a small tribe attached to us in the future, you might as well move all of them here. First, it can cover our left wing, and second, it can also migrate some Han people to cook salt and make iron."

Ardal then felt relieved.

I was speechless all night, but when the sky was about to shine, the camp was attacked!

Eziertu just accepted a local Tibetan woman as her concubine last night. Hu Tian and Hu were all night and wanted to sleep for a while, but unexpectedly he was woken up very early.

It was his second son, Gale Dama, who woke him up.

"Abu"

When Eziertu saw his always brave son, his eyes were filled with panic and he came out of anger. He pushed him away and cursed: "You are still a warrior from the Heshuote tribe. Do you know that the Weilats were originally people in the forest near the Beihai Sea. It has been hundreds of years since the arrogance of the Yuan Dynasty. In the past, the Sorens were all slaves of us. Even if they come now, what are they afraid of?"

Gale Dama was scolded by Abu, and her face turned red and white. After a while, she stuttered: "Abu, go out and have a look."

The camp in Eziertu is located on the ruins of Heicheng in the past, which was set up in the Dayuan period. Although it was broken walls, it was several miles in a radius and several feet high. After all, it was better than the current camp.

The original Black City also had four gates. Under the leadership of Galedama, Eziertu brought his personal guards to the vicinity of the East Gate. He was shocked at first, and then he was a little secretly happy.

About three thousand cavalrymen were between the oasis and the desert, with neat clothes, armor and weapons, and they were obviously the regular army of Xia.

"According to the Western Regions merchants, the Xia Kingdom had only one legion in the Hetao area, with only tens of thousands of people. In addition to suppressing the Tumote herders in the territory, it also had to cover the border with the Ming Kingdom. However, there was only a brigade of 3,000 people near Helan Mountain. Most of them also had spies near Juyanhai to find out that our army had arrived and came to deter it."

"As long as these three thousand cavalry are eliminated and Helan Mountain is controlled, we can attack the Hetao area in large quantities."

"Galdama!"

"Abu"

"You lead five thousand troops to fight, remember to defeat it as fast as possible."

“Aledal!”

"Sweat"

"You can take five thousand cavalry to follow Galedama and keep a day's distance from him."

The Alxa Wilderness area in front was also familiar with the Heshuote tribe on the northern foot of the Tianshan Mountains. Eziertu knew that if ten thousand people were piled up together, the oasis near the lakes in the wasteland was small in area and sparse herdsmen, so they would definitely not be able to obtain effective supplies and could not carry so many people.

If the cavalry is fast, it will arrive in half a day. Even if there is an ambush from the Han Hai Army in front, it is okay to support it with the strength of Galedama. What's more, now that the military power of the Daxia Kingdom has all gone to Liaodong, there will be no need for too many soldiers here.

However, in this way, the military funds carried by thousands of camels in the army need to be managed by themselves.

"Okay"

Eziertu looked around. There was nothing unusual about the whistling northwest wind and the icy yellow and green colors. The bare gray-yellow mountains in the Beishan area north of the Juyan Sea can be vaguely visible.

There is also a road to the north from Juyanhai, but only experienced herdsmen and merchants can find water on that road. The place with a large amount of water is still at the foot of Hangai Mountain, 800 miles away.

Don't even think about marching on this road to attack yourself.

After Gale Dama finished preparing, he led five thousand cavalry to attack.

The three thousand cavalry were not afraid when they saw Galedama attacking, and they also activated the war to come soon.

At this time, Aldar and Eziertu came from the north and south with their cavalry. Seeing this, the three thousand cavalry suddenly fired a fireball. After the smoke of gunpowder disappeared, only some panic-walking backs left to Galedama.
