The beggar emperor at the end of Ming Dynasty - Chapter 583
Boxseri.
As Batur left in a hurry, almost all other cattle, sheep, animals, gold and silver utensils fell down except war horses and a small amount of grain.
It is said to be a capital. In fact, it can’t even compare with an ordinary county in the Central Plains. Its perimeter is only four miles. Looking at the low earth wall, Lu Xiangsheng is also worried.
“How’s it going? Where is the third cavalry camp? ”
“Back to the general, he is still 200 miles away. According to their itinerary, it will take at least five days to arrive.” A Han cavalry replied.
“No, absolutely not. It’s too late. Let them give up all their seized things and take only horses and women. They must arrive tomorrow evening.”
Lu Xiangsheng’s face was as black as charcoal, and then clenched his teeth. He was not worried that the Heshuote department and durbert department could break bokeserie, but that the troops everywhere would be broken by each other.
After all, his more than 100000 troops are now scattered everywhere, many of them have not been contacted so far, and the establishment of some battalions and companies has been completely disrupted.
Fortunately, he appointed officers temporarily in all battalions, otherwise he had to get a big deal. At this time, Lu Xiangsheng also regretted that he should not close the 5000 Han cavalry, but should still lead the 100000 army. At that time, he also made the decision to reduce the casualties of Han cavalry.
“General, my subordinates are worried that those guys will be reluctant.”
“Tell them, as long as there are enough cattle and sheep to eat, and the cattle and sheep in bokesai are enough for us to eat until winter. What’s the use of gold, silver and jewelry and what can we buy? When you go back to the imperial court of the Qin Dynasty, you will naturally reward you for your achievements. Are you afraid you won’t have money at that time? ”
Lu Xiangsheng also sighed. If he drove those cattle and sheep slowly, it is estimated that he won’t want to gather troops for half a month.
“It’s a general.”
The captain officer did not hesitate any more. Although he was very tired, he turned over and got on his horse and ran quickly with a team of Mongolian cavalry. Only they knew where the Third Battalion was.
Lu Xiangsheng did not wait for all the signal soldiers to return, but sent dozens of wave signal soldiers again. Ten people in each team, one Han school captain, one knight who can speak Chinese and Mongolian, and eight ordinary Mongolian cavalry, scattered in all directions.
All the Mongolian cavalry, regardless of the number, told them to abandon the cattle, sheep, gold, silver and jewelry and rush to bokseri with only horses and women.
At this time, more than 100000 Qin troops were divided into large and small hundreds of shares, which were distributed on the vast grassland.
There are thousands more, hundreds less, or even dozens of people in a team, but each group is driving cattle, sheep and horses, with robbed women and children, moving towards bokesai like migration, including many pregnant women.
Many of these teams will come together as they walk, forming a larger migration team. Whoever has a high official position will listen to who, and the same official position will be singled out. Whoever wins will listen to who.
These are the temporary military laws formulated by Lu Xiangsheng for the more than 100000 Mongolian cavalry. Although these are just two simple ones, they are now playing a great role.
After all, these Mongolian cavalry also have military ranks after being recruited, but most of them are at the soldier level, and only a few will be awarded school captain. As for the general, there is none.
This enabled the two teams to quickly merge and move forward after meeting, without competing for booty.
As for not going back with the booty and finding a place with abundant water and grass to do the thing of the local emperor, it did not happen.
Because this is simply unrealistic. Although the military ranks of these 100000 people are high and low, and their official positions are large and small, in essence, no one will obey anyone.
This is the advantage of cleaning up all the nobles.
In addition, most people already have grassland in Daqin, and their wives, children, children, cattle, sheep and horses are not controlled at ordinary times, so the temptation to work alone is not big.
Moreover, the living conditions on the grassland are poor and dangerous everywhere. Without a strong tribe as a backer, there is a risk of being killed and his wife and children being robbed at any time, so few people are willing to live the precarious days in the past.
On the contrary, since taking refuge in Daqin, not only the safety has been guaranteed, but also the surplus cattle, sheep and horses can be sold to Han caravans to buy daily necessities such as food, salt and so on. Therefore, there is no need to worry about what the cattle and sheep did not eat after freezing to death.
As for being called up by the Han people to fight, they are eager that no one will resist.
Therefore, after receiving Lu Xiangsheng’s order, almost all the teams chose to abandon those cattle, sheep, gold and silver, and only gallop with horses and women.
In fact, even if they don’t listen, they can’t take those things back, because the cavalry of Heshuote department and durbert Department came from the West and south respectively.
These cavalry are one person and three horses. They have no burden, and they are thousands of people in a team, thousands of people in a team. They come and go like the wind. Even if the number of a team of the Qin army exceeds them, they can’t fight.
Because the slow team is hard to defend, and the other party can quickly summon their companions to besiege, even if many teams did not receive Lu Xiangsheng’s order, the hunted people had to leave their things and flee.
Not even women.
The living Mantis catches cicadas and the Yellow finches are behind, which makes the two leaders of Heshuote department and durbert Department laugh.
The warriors of the two ethnic groups also laughed happily and were too lazy to chase after the Mongols who fled. Instead, they received booty all the way. The leaders of the small tribes quarreled with each other in order to compete for cattle, sheep, women, children, gold and silver, and some even took big shots.
This is the biggest disadvantage of the tribal system. The two tribes robbed so many cattle and sheep population, gold and silver utensils, tents and leather. They immediately gave up their plan to continue to attack bokseri, but planned to take all these things back first.
Because their goal has been achieved, the powerful Jungar tribe is over, and most of the cattle and sheep population have been swallowed by them.
Next, as long as they keep their own territory and don’t let the cavalry of the Qin army from the East rob their cattle and sheep, the other party will never survive this winter. In the end, they will either be swallowed up by them or retreat in dismay.
The habitat of Jungar tribe will also completely become their tribe, so what they have to do now is not to fight with each other, but to prevent each other from fighting with them.
Of course, if the leaders of the two tribes knew that Batur had not lied, it was estimated that there were nearly 200000 cavalry from the East this time.
It’s right to think about it. If the other party has only 100000 people, it must have suffered heavy losses after defeating the powerful Jungar tribe. After all, the Jungar department is facing life and death and will definitely fight to the death. In this way, the remaining people of the other party are not worried.
As long as we don’t force them into a desperate situation, most of them don’t dare to provoke Heshuo Tebu and duelbert again. At that time, we will give them some dried meat and salt and don’t obediently return?
