The generals no longer hesitated and began to deploy their troops according to Li Xingzhong's orders.
The next morning, after replenishing his rations, Li Xingzhong personally led 3,000 elite troops and marched quickly towards the northeast.
That is where Chahar’s headquarters is located, and it is also his target this time.
......
The headquarters of the Chahar tribe.
"What?" Abunai of the Chahar tribe fell to the ground after hearing the report from his personal soldiers: "Five thousand against four thousand, and we were defeated? Tutai was also killed in battle by the Ming army?"
"Yes, according to those who escaped, this Ming cavalry is well-equipped and very powerful. Let alone our 5,000 cavalry, even if we have 10,000 cavalry, we may not be a match for this Ming army."
"When did the Ming army become so strong?" Abunai's face was full of disbelief.
"They are indeed powerful, especially the new-style bird guns in their hands, which can penetrate armor and kill people from a hundred steps away!" replied the personal soldier.
Abunai's brows instantly twisted into a knot.
He didn't expect that the Ming army's firearms improved so quickly!
"Are the reinforcements from Shengjing arriving soon?" Abunai decided to drag the Eight Banners soldiers into the water.
Judging from the description of his personal soldiers, the Mongolian cavalry under his command were no match for this Ming army.
joke!
Is it a bird gun that can penetrate armor and kill people from a hundred steps away?
It's clearly artillery!
Rather than letting the Mongolian cavalry die in vain, it is better to wait for the Eight Banners Army to arrive and join the battle together.
If he wins, he can take the credit; if he loses, he can drag the Eight Banners soldiers to take the blame.
It’s like killing two birds with one stone!
The guard immediately replied: "Ten days ago, Prince Su Haoge personally led 10,000 Eight Banners soldiers from Shengjing to the grassland."
"At the rate of marching a hundred miles a day, we will arrive in another seven days."
"Seven days?" Abunai snorted coldly: "I'm afraid the Ming army won't give me seven days!"
As expected.
Just as Abunai finished speaking, a scout came running in from outside the door: "Report, Your Majesty, a Ming cavalry force was spotted thirty miles southwest, numbering about three thousand."
"Who is leading the troops?" Abunai asked hurriedly.
"The other side is waving a flag with the word "Li" on it. They seem to be the group that killed Lord Tutai in the battle!" the scout replied.
"Hiss—" Abunai shuddered all over, "What I feared will come true. They are really chasing us."
"No..." Abunai grasped the key point of the message: "How many troops did you say the other side had?"
"Three thousand cavalry."
"Only three thousand cavalry?"
"right!"
"Haha," Abunai sneered, "You dare to invade our camp alone with only 3,000 cavalrymen?"
"Pass the order down, order all the soldiers to assemble and prepare to encircle and annihilate this group of Ming troops!"
