At this moment, Shumu Taiji had only one thought in his mind.
That is to fight back to the tribal royal tent and reclaim it!
Only in this way can the glory of the Left Khan's tribe be restored, and only then will there be a chance to avenge the Left Khan!
Especially after hearing that the large army from the tribal king's camp was not many, and was mostly a militia, and most importantly, a logistics base for the large army.
When all this information was put together, it further solidified Shumutaiji's idea.
The next day, after Darhan and Maoming'an's troops arrived, Shumutaiji officially confirmed the decision to raid the tribal royal tent.
After a day of rest, Shumu Taiji led 20,000 to 30,000 people over the Daqing Mountain and headed towards the tribal royal tent.
The Daqing Mountains are steep and rugged, but there are also many mountain paths that can be traversed. The herders of the Left Khan's tribe often grazed their livestock in the surrounding area, so these paths were very familiar to them.
Taking the small path and avoiding the attention of the main force would make their surprise attack more likely.
In particular, along the way, they also encountered some herdsmen and defeated soldiers from the Left Khan's forces.
Shumu Taiji showed great leniency towards these people, accepting them into his ranks and allowing them to atone for their crimes through meritorious service.
After crossing the Daqingshan Mountains and entering the vast grasslands surrounding the tribal royal tent, Shumutaiji's soldiers and herdsmen totaled more than 30,000 people!
Such a large force made Shumu Taiji very happy!
"Hahaha……"
Shumu Taiji laughed heartily and said, "Now, taking back the tribal royal tent is just around the corner!"
"keep going!"
After speaking, Shumutaiji continued to lead his troops along the grasslands toward the tribal royal tent.
This time, Shumutaiji was filled with excitement and joy, as if he could see the scene after he had taken back the tribal royal tent.
When the time comes, I will avenge the Left Khan and ascend to the throne as the Left Khan myself. I can't imagine how happy I will be!
After crossing the Daqing Mountains and passing through the vast grasslands, we did not encounter any large troops along the way.
Their surprise attack was extremely well-hidden.
Even when they were still more than 30 miles away from the tribal king's tent, Shumutaiji and his men still hadn't encountered any scouts from a large army.
Their movements were extremely secretive.
“Taiji,”
One of his trusted men pointed eastward and said, "The tribal king's tent is just thirty miles to the east! From here, it will only take a little over half an hour to reach it!"
"very good!"
A hint of joy appeared between Shumu Taiji's brows.
He nodded and said, "Tell the warriors of the grasslands to rest here for an hour and replenish their strength. An hour later, launch a surprise attack on the tribal royal tent!"
"yes!"
The confidant responded.
Immediately, more than 30,000 people on the grassland began eating beef jerky and drinking milk tea to replenish their energy.
...
Meanwhile, in the distant Cloud City, Yang Chengbo continued to command the militia, busy with his work.
After nearly half a month of effort, Cloud City has now become a formidable city on the grassland.
Cement kilns, brick kilns, and other construction sites are all under construction.
In addition, the reclamation work on the wasteland outside Cloud City is also in full swing.
The entire Cloud City was a vibrant and lively scene.
However, what they didn't know was that danger was closing in step by step on the grasslands outside Cloud City!
At this moment, on the grassland, the grassland bandits were like hungry wolves hiding in the shadows, their ferocious eyes fixed on Cloud City.
"Taijitsu, the tribal royal tent is just ahead!"
Hidden deep in the grassland, with the dense weeds providing cover, they could see the Cloud City in the distant wilderness.
Shumu Taiji narrowed his eyes and said, "I didn't expect it. It's only been a few days, and the tribal royal tent has become like this. They've even built earthen walls. These militia and armed forces are really something!"
"But that's alright!"
Shumu Taiji waved his hand dismissively, showing no regard for the earthen wall.
After all, this earthen wall is only a little over one person high.
At this height, let alone grassland bandits and cavalry, even some excellent warhorses could leap up in one bound.
Therefore, Shumutaiji did not take it seriously at all.
Especially in the current tribal royal tent, the large number of militia and armed forces are still busy and seem unaware of their arrival.
It seems this covert march went extremely smoothly!
"Hehe, victory is in sight!"
Shumutaiji thought to himself, then said, "Warriors of the grasslands, ahead lies the royal tent of our Left Tent Khanate! Warriors, follow me and charge forward to reclaim the royal tent!"
"Charge!"
At Shumu Taiji's command, more than 30,000 grassland bandits sped off towards Yunzhong.
The spring breeze of April swept across the grassland, and the weeds swayed in the wind.
The wind grew stronger, and the weeds swayed more and more frequently.
Cloud City, on the city wall.
A company commander held binoculars, observing the distant grassland.
Upon seeing this, the company commander was stunned.
"Old Zhao, look at the grassland, something seems off!"
The company commander spoke up to remind him.
The instructor, Lao Zhao, standing beside him, paused for a moment and asked, "Company Commander, what's wrong?"
While asking questions, instructor Lao Zhao also picked up his binoculars and peered out over the grassland.
Upon seeing this, even the instructor, Lao Zhao, was stunned.
"Company commander, it looks like cavalry on the grassland!"
"Could they be bandits from the grasslands?!"
Instantly, instructor Lao Zhao was stunned, and his face changed drastically.
"They really are grassland bandits!"
Now the company commander saw it clearly and immediately called out.
In an instant, the two men's expressions changed drastically, and they were shocked and horrified.
None of them expected that these grassland bandits would actually break into the vicinity of Cloud City, so close to the city!
What surprised them most was the sheer number of grassland bandits!
At a glance, there are tens of thousands of people!
not good!
The company commander's heart skipped a beat, and he was horrified.
He glanced at the militiamen bustling around Yunzhong and felt a pang of anxiety.
A moment later, the company commander picked up the machine gun next to him and fired a burst of bullets into the air.
Da da da!
Da da da!
The loud gunshot rang out, instantly attracting the attention of everyone in Cloud City.
Immediately, the company commander shouted, "Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"
"The grassland bandits are coming!"
The loud shouts alerted all the soldiers on the city wall in the clouds.
Upon spotting the grassland bandits, some soldiers immediately sounded the alarm.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The alarm bell rang, and its sound carried far.
The militia members who were busy outside the city changed their expressions upon hearing the sound. They immediately dropped their hoes and ran towards the trenches.
In an instant, the entire Cloud City became highly tense!
