Chapter 734: The Mutiny of the Third Division

Meng He heard this and said loudly: "Yes, it's hard to fight the enemy of Zhana Machinery Factory inside, so it's easy to clean up if you come out."

Zhang Haotian nodded and said, "The enemy will open up this road at all costs. Idler and others are under great pressure, and we must also grasp the enemy's movements at any time. Menghe, you must keep in touch with Major Batten of the machinery factory at any time and tell him that as long as the information is effective, the money can be added."

Meng He agreed and said, "No problem, this guy doesn't have the courage to help us do big things, but he still dares to move his mouth."

While speaking, the gunfire outside was getting more and more intense and louder. It was obvious that the rebels were advancing towards the city step by step, but Zhang Haotian was not nervous because this was one of his strategies. Most of the soldiers of the Tatarot tribe were still using carbines and faced the enemy's modern weapons on the vast grasslands. However, it was different in the city's steel and concrete. When he entered Checherkule, he wanted to use the city's structure to form a natural fortification, like a swamp, which made the enemy fall into it and then slowly submerge it.

Not long after, Gaardi, who was in charge of command outside, called and reported the current form that the enemy entered the city from the south and west of the city. However, obviously he did not intend to engage in street battles with the Tatarot soldiers. He only blocked four main streets, but did not enter each building to search for the Tatarot soldiers and eliminate them. In addition, at least half of the enemies passed through the city of Checherkule and headed to the north. The most conspicuous one was that there were twenty-three large eight-wheel extended military transport vehicles, and the convoy had tanks and armored vehicles in front and behind.

When Zhang Haotian heard Galdi's report, he knew that his prediction was correct. The purpose of Bass sent the Fourth Division was not to immediately capture Checherkul and destroy the Tatarot soldiers in the city, but to transport all the arms of the Zanna Machinery Factory and detour to the north to the Ulaanbaatar front. And they blocked several main streets, and wanted to send some soldiers to drag more than 20,000 Tatarot soldiers to prevent them from harassering the transportation of the arms.

So he gave Galdi an order, asking the soldiers to shoot down the buildings on both sides of several major streets of the city to lure the enemy into the buildings as much as possible. If the enemy is not deceived, then find another way. In short, destroying an enemy now can relieve the pressure on the government army. In the absence of weapons, this can only be done.

After the call, Zhang Haotian calculated the time and it would take one or two hours to load all the arms of the Zanna Machinery Factory with twenty-three large military vehicles. There were more than 1,000 black tiger soldiers in the Gentuar Valley. With the advantage of the territory, it would be fine to hold on for two or three hours. In other words, the enemy's convoy had to pass the Gentuar Valley, at least until the evening. During this period, they had a great chance of victory, that is, the Third Division of the First Army that followed the enemy.

Bass only sent one regiment to block them, and the first army is the Central Army that Mongolia defends the capital. Its equipment has always been the best, and now it is four times the enemy. It should not be difficult to break through the defense line. As long as they can reach Checherkule before the fall of the Gentuar Valley, these arms will not reach the Ulaanbaatar front. Once a large number of enemies control the Gentuar Valley, even if the people from the Third Division arrive, they will be blocked by them, allowing twenty-three military vehicles to arrive smoothly.

Gradually, the gunfire was no longer as dense as before, but it never stopped. Naturally, the soldiers were fighting guerrillaly and consuming the enemy's vitality in the city as much as possible.

This situation continued. Two hours later, Meng He received a quietly call from Major Bateng, saying that the arms of the Zanna Machinery Factory had been loaded with twenty-three military vehicles and were escorted by two enemy regiments. In addition to sixteen tanks and twenty-one armored vehicles, three fighter jets and four armed helicopters were also cruised and protected in the air.

Of course, Zhang Haotian knew the importance of these weapons to Bass, and also understood that it would be very difficult for Idler to stick to the Gentuar Valley with the cover of the enemy tanks and planes. However, it has been nearly four hours since the Fourth Division arrived at Checherkule, and the Third Division of the First Army should also make progress. As long as they come and meet in time, these twenty-three armed trains will still not be able to escape. Without arms supplements, it is absolutely impossible for Bass to win the victory on the Ulaanbaatar front. The key to this war has been subtly transferred to Checherkule. The third division decided on this key battle. Without them, the soldiers who were behind in their equipment would not be able to get close to the transport vehicle.

At this moment, Zhang Haotian and Idler contacted him on mobile phones. There were originally two thousand Black Tiger soldiers under his command, but more than 500 casualties were killed and killed when attacking the Zanna Machinery Factory. Now there were more than 1,400 people who arrived in the Gentuar Valley. Now he has divided the team into two parts and climbed to the hills on both sides of the valley, preparing to block the enemy from a high point.

Zhang Haotian specifically reminded Idler that the enemy had aircraft and tank cover, and the arsenal had mortars and field artillery, so the artillery fire would undoubtedly be very fierce, so he would try his best to disperse the soldiers and avoid losing combat effectiveness soon after being bombarded by concentrated artillery.

Not long after he finished the call with Idler, the military communicator in his arms started to tweet. He quickly picked it up and answered. He listened to Gegemu's call. The first sentence was: "Gegemu, how is the progress of the Third Division? How far is it from Checheerkule?"

After a long silence in the communicator, Gegemu's low voice came and said, "Prince, we have done our best, but God will not help us. Retreat from Checheerkule, and stop making unnecessary sacrifices."

Zhang Haotian was stunned and immediately said, "Is there something wrong with the Third Division?"

Gegemu said "Hmm": "Just an hour ago, most of the officers of the Third Division suddenly gathered together to oppose the march of Cherkule, saying that they did not want to work as cannon fodder for a government that was about to collapse. Moreover, the commander of the Third Division, Major General Hua Buyinqi, had been placed under house arrest. It is very likely that they would mutiny and join the rebels of Bath."

This news made Zhang Haotian's heart feel like he was hanging into the abyss. He couldn't help but curse and said, "Damn, how could this happen?"

Gegemu's sigh came from the communicator: "The revolutionary party has been in power for too long. Gleballe has not been able to replace all the officers in just one or two years. Bass dared to rebel with the power of one army, but he saw this. I failed in the Ima Mountains, and the First Army could not defend the last line of defense in Ulaanbaatar. It was because these officers of the revolutionary party were afraid that they could not save their positions, so in their hearts they hoped that the Bass rebellion would be successful. As the general trend was the case, we were powerless."

Zhang Haotian was silent for a while, and then said, "Gegemu, have you observed during this period? How did those ordinary soldiers react to Bass' rebellion?"

Gegemu immediately said: "I have been observing this matter. Ordinary soldiers are not very concerned about the alternation of political parties and are brave enough to fight against the rebels. Otherwise, I would not have been able to defend in the Ima Mountains for so long. The problem now is mainly those officers, and the soldiers are used to obeying the orders of the officers."

Zhang Haotian said: "Gegemu, I will ask you something, you must think it through before answering."

Gegemu hurriedly said, "What's the matter?"

Zhang Haotian said in a deep voice: "If Bass transports his weapons to the front line, will Ulaanbaatar not be able to defend it?"

Listening to his words, Gegemu said without hesitation: "It must be impossible to defend. Ulaanbaatar's main position has been almost lost. The youth guard team called by President Gleballe will be able to end the training. The situation on the front line is similar to that of the Third Division. There are abnormal movements at all levels. I guess it was Bass who sent people to instigate these officers. The failure of the Democratic Party is irreversible."

Gegemu's affirmative answer made Zhang Haotian's face dim. He slowly put down the communicator and lay down on the ground motionless, as if he was asleep.

Meng He heard the conversation between him and Gegemu and guessed what happened. He knew that Zhang Haotian needed to think about what to do next, so he sat quietly beside him without any danger of disturbing him.

After Zhang Haotian closed his eyes and lay on the ground for about ten minutes, he suddenly opened his eyes and sat up and said, "Meng He, the officers of the Third Division have placed under house arrest for Major General Hua Buyinqi, and they are very likely to join the rebels. You stay here, I will go to the camp of the Third Division."

Unexpectedly, Zhang Haotian suddenly said such words, Meng He was very surprised and immediately said: "Prince, since the officers of the Third Division want to join the rebels, what else do you have to do? Isn't you just fall into the trap?"

Zhang Haotian's face became calm and resolute, saying, "Those ordinary soldiers are not clear about what they are doing. If the Third Division cannot come over, relying on our strength, there is no way to intercept the arms. They can be transported to the Ulaanbaatar front before dawn, and it will not take long to break through the first army's defense line. This is my last chance to save the Tatarot tribe and save the Holy Tomb. And I have already thought of a way, which can be completely tried."

Meng He didn't know what kind of solution he had thought, but the young prince often had amazing thinking, and he could always turn the tide and turn the situation around. He always respected him and said, "Prince, there are still three hundred black tiger soldiers in the city, using submachine guns we seized from the police station. Now the enemy has not taken the initiative to attack, so it is not very useful for them to stay in the city. It is better to ask Lakshen to take them to the military camp of the Third Division."

Unexpectedly, Zhang Haotian shook his head and said, "No, the Third Division has 10,000 people, and the weapons are excellent. Lakshen and the others will not play any role in following me. Instead, they will make those officers wary. In the history of China, there is a great hero named Guan Yunchang. In order to resolve the crisis, he went to the meeting alone, but today I want to learn from this ancient man. And if I really encounter an enemy on the way, I can use the speed of 'Nisgbari' to get rid of them, and it will be inconvenient to bring people."

Meng He is familiar with Chinese history and of course he knows this allusion. However, at that time, Guan Yunchang went to Dongwu, which was both enemies and friends, and was very different from Zhang Haotian's current state. He couldn't help but persuade him again. However, when his mouth was about to start, Zhang Haotian waved his hand to stop him and said, "Meng He, the enemy has gone to the Gentuar Valley. There is no time left for us. Send someone to lead me and leave the city from a safe place. Don't worry about the rest. If I didn't come back before the early morning and Idler and the others lost their guard in the Gentuar Valley, you convey my order to let all the Tatarot soldiers evacuate Checherkule and walk southeast to join the Great Princess and the others to China."

Seeing that Zhang Haotian had made up his mind, Meng He sighed deeply, no longer persuaded each other, but said, "Prince, I am very familiar with this city, so I'd better send you out."

Zhang Haotian nodded, stood up, walked out of the secret room with him, and went outside to take "Nisgbari".

Zhang Haotian brought a Warrior submachine gun, a police revolver, and a scimitar. In order to show his royal identity, he even hung the Toyakin whip left by his father behind his waist.

Meng He brought a big yellow horse over and turned over with Zhang Haotian. He did not walk into the main street of the city, but walked through the alleys of each building. After about twenty minutes, he left the city. The enemy lacked enough troops and of course there was no way to block it outside. The two galloped towards the south. The people of the Third Division must be in this direction if they came from Meilin.

After running about ten kilometers on the grassland, Zhang Haotian waved his hand and asked Meng He to go back to the city. With a shout, "Nisgbari" accelerated his speed and moved forward like lightning. Although there was the Toyajin whip, there was no need to urge this majestic and human-minded horse.

After galloping for half an hour, it was already fifty or sixty kilometers away from Checherkule, and mountains began to appear ahead. Zhang Haotian knew that if a regiment of the Fourth Division wanted to block the Third Division, he would definitely set the position on the main road of the mountain range. If he wanted to go to the Third Division's position, he had to cross the enemy's position first.

Sure enough, between the two mountains in front, the enemy appeared in sight. Zhang Haotian did not go over immediately, but instead strangled the horse and held up his telescope to observe. He saw that the two mountains were about four or five hundred meters apart, and the rebels dug a horizontal shaped trench to defend.

Such a terrain is definitely not a critical task. With a regiment's force, it is unimaginable to block four times the power of the entire company, but they still did it, and of course the reason can be imagined.

Zhang Haotian had seen the map of this area countless times. He no longer walked forward, but rode "Nisgbari" along the left side of the mountain range. Five kilometers away, there is a lake. After passing through the lake, he can reach the position of the Third Division.

With the "Nisgbari" journey, the five kilometers naturally arrived soon, and Zhang Haotian indeed saw a lake. Although this lake is much smaller than Baiyin Lake outside Badatota City, it still has a radius of three or four square kilometers, and is about 300 meters away from the other side.

On the shore, Zhang Haotian did not see any trace of the rebels, and he knew very well that as the minimum military common sense, a lake like this should definitely be sent to defend, but the commander of the rebels did not do so. There is only one possibility, that is, he already knew that the people of the Third Division would have civil strife, but he symbolically blocked the mountain pass, and gave up on other places where the opponent could serve as a breakthrough. However, this can be understood. With the strength of the Third Division, if there were no civil strife, he would have long rushed through the defense line from the wide mountain pass, and it would have been useless to set up a defensive position in this lake.

Without too much thought, Zhang Haotian carried a gun and clamped his horse's back, and "Nisgbari" erected towards the clear lake water.

It was the time of autumn cold. As soon as his body entered the water, the cold and cold feeling of coldness soaked from Zhang Haotian's submerged legs made him shivering. However, the "Nisgbari" had thick skin and fat skin. The groom who specialized in supporting it often took it to Baiyin Lake to clean it in the spring and autumn. He was used to this temperature. He made light neighing from time to time, and his four hooves slashed in the water, carrying Zhang Haotian quickly to the other side. This characteristic of this is the gene of Mongolian horses, which is hard-working and water-land. If it is a purebred British purebred horse, it is fast, but facing the cold lake, let alone carrying its owner so far, I am afraid that it will not even be allowed to go down the water.

In about ten minutes, "Nisgbari" had already reached the other side. It went to the shore wet, shook its head and tail, shaking its water stains on its fur. Under the guidance of Zhang Hao's reins, it went along the right side of the lake. After a while, it reached a mountain and quickly passed through the weeds several feet high.

Not long after, Zhang Haotian saw rows of neat yurts appearing in front of him. He knew that the Third Division's military camp had arrived. Some soldiers leisurely laid the horse chess that the Mongols liked to play in an open space outside the military camp with stones. There was no war and ready to attack. He couldn't help but grit his teeth.

The soldiers who were playing horse chess heard the sound of horse hooves and raised their heads. When they saw Zhang Haotian riding a tall horse and carrying a gun from the weeds, they immediately stood up, took off the submachine gun behind their shoulders, and shouted and surrounded him.

Seeing these soldiers from the third division, Zhang Haotian took out the golden Toyakin whip and said in a deep voice to the second lieutenant with the highest rank among these people: "Go to report to Major General Hua Buyin, just say that King Hadan Batel of Tatarot came to visit."

In Mongolia, who doesn't know that King Tatarot is the leader of the royal family, and Zhang Haotian has supported the Democratic Party in recent years, and is very popular. Just after he said that, he heard someone among the soldiers exclaiming: "Ah, it's Prince Hadanbatel. That's right. He spoke on TV some time ago to support the government. I've seen it."

Most soldiers, including the second lieutenant, had never seen the true face of King Tatarot. Looking at the horse he rode and the golden whip in his hand, and with what the soldiers who knew him had said just now, naturally no one doubted it, and they all showed respect. For the Mongolians, the president could even be despised, but he had a natural admiration and admiration for the royal family.

The expressions of these people were as expected by Zhang Haotian. The reason why he dared to break into the Third Division's military camp, which has become a dangerous place, was that he knew the position of King Tatarot in the minds of ordinary soldiers. However, if he wanted to succeed, he had to do one thing.

So he said to the lieutenant again: "What's your name? Haven't you heard it? Go and report to your division commander, Major General Hua Buyin, that the Tatarot King Hadan Batel came to visit him."

The lieutenant quickly said, "Prince, my name is Harvet. To be honest, something happened to Major General Hua Buyinqi. Now we are responsible for commanding Lieutenant Colonel Ruma."

Zhang Haotian heard Gegemu say that Major General Hua Buyinqi was placed under house arrest by some officers of the Third Division. He wanted to find out the current situation through the mouths of these soldiers, so he deliberately frowned and said, "Oh, Lieutenant Colonel Ruma, who is he? What was he responsible for in the past?"

The second lieutenant said again: "Lieutenant Colonel Ruma was the deputy commander of the 3rd Battalion of the Second Regiment, and the Fourth Division is currently commanded by him, and is elected by most officers."

Zhang Haotian knew that the First Army was equivalent to the central unit of the Mongolian government. Grebaler made adjustments to officers at the regiment level and replaced them with Democratic Party members, but the officers in the lower and lower levels had not yet had time to move. Lieutenant Colonel Ruma was certainly the main messenger of the Third Division mutiny, and the backer behind him was undoubtedly Bass. It is estimated that Democratic officers at the regiment level and above have been subjected to the same fate as Major General Hua Buyinqi. He nodded and said, "Havet, go and tell Lieutenant Colonel Ruma, just say I'm here and let him come out to greet him."

Although the Mongolian royal family had long lost their real power, their noble and supreme status would not change. Now that we have arrived at the military camp, it is no exaggeration to let a lieutenant colonel with a low rank come out to greet him. Lieutenant Harvet quickly agreed, but walked into a camp and started to contact Lieutenant Colonel Naruma with a military telephone.

In just a moment, Harvet hurried back to his horse and said, "Prince, I have contacted Lieutenant Colonel Ruma just now. He said that he has military affairs and it is not convenient to come here. Please let me take you to the command center."

Zhang Haotian understood that Lieutenant Colonel Ruma knew that he supported the Democratic government and had captured Checherkul, so he could guess the purpose of his visit. Of course, he didn't want to be too polite, and he must be asking Bass at this moment, what should he do with him?

So he nodded again and said, "Havet, let your men go and inform the brothers of each battalion and company, and said that they have worked very hard these days, and I have come to the front line to visit them."

Harvet did not understand his intention, but facing this majestic young prince, he could not resist the order at all, so he sent several soldiers to ask them to go to each battalion and company, saying that King Tatarot was coming and wanted to visit everyone.

Seeing the soldiers riding horses to the barracks to convey the news, Zhang Haotian asked Havite to lead the way to Ruma's command. Bass would definitely let Ruma attack him, but when those ordinary soldiers knew that King Tatarot had arrived, Ruma would definitely have some concerns when he wanted to attack him.

Here, Harvet also turned over a red horse and asked Zhang Haotian to follow him and headed towards the military camp. Zhang Haotian knew that it was a bit inappropriate to carry a submachine gun in his capacity, so he took it down and handed it over to Harvet.

Along the way, the Tatarot King, who knew the most noble and mysterious identity of Mongolia, arrived. The soldiers ran over from the camp or from the training ground to watch. When they saw Zhang Haotian, who was riding a golden whip and a horse, many people respectfully covered their chests and bowed to salute. In most Mongolian families, they worshipped Genghis Khan. They worshiped every major festival or major events at home. Now it is a great honor to be able to witness his descendants with their own eyes. Some traditional loyal people even bowed down.

Seeing the soldiers' reactions, Zhang Haotian became more confident in the trip, so he smiled and waved to them. Seeing the majestic Tatarot King's expression was friendly, the soldiers were immediately bathed in spring breeze. I don't know who shouted first: "Long live Tatarot King." In an instant, more soldiers shouted.

"Long live the Tatarot King."

"Long live the Tatarot King."

...

The shouting sounds were getting higher and higher, and it swept across the barracks like a wave, causing more soldiers to surround them. Three layers inside and three layers outside formed a human wall.

Zhang Haotian wanted this effect. He smiled and waved his hand slowly. Half an hour later, he saw a big tent. Needless to say, it was the command center of the Third Division. Zhang Haotian couldn't help but sigh again. The Third Division received a task to help Cherkule, and now he has set up camp and he doesn't want to attack at all.

When we arrived outside the command center, we saw more than ten soldiers standing. The highest rank was a sergeant, but no officer came to greet us.

Harvet followed Zhang Haotian to accept the cheers. He had never encountered a glory in his life and could only return to his hometown to brag about it. Seeing this situation, he was a little embarrassed and quickly dismounted and said to the senior clerk: "Qiqilong, go and inform Lieutenant Colonel Ruma, and say that King Tatarot is coming and ask him to come out to greet him."

Sergeant Qiqilong was a middle-aged man with thick and dark skin, undoubtedly Ruma's confidant. Hearing his words, he looked at Zhang Haotian on the tall dark horse in awe, but he just saluted him and said, "Lieutenant Colonel Ruma has military affairs in the tent, so he cannot come out to greet him. Please dismount and enter the tent."

Zhang Haotian knew that Ruma must have heard the soldiers in the military camp cheering "Long live the Tatarot King" just now, and he did this to take off his airs. He smiled slightly and jumped off the horse.

However, just as he was about to make a big move, Qiqilong stopped him, looked at the scimitar and pistol inserted between his waist, and said, "Your Majesty, I'm so embarrassed. Lieutenant Colonel Ruma said you have worked hard all the way and the things you carry are too heavy. Let us keep them for you."

Zhang Haotian did not mean to refuse, drew his pistol and scimitar and threw it to him, then raised the Toyakin whip in his hand and said, "This is a relic used by Kublai Khan's ancestors. Do you want it too?"

Listening to the young and majestic King Tataro was quite dissatisfied with his words, Qi Qilong was still a little scared and quickly bowed and said, "Prince, I am also ordered to do things. Please come in."

Zhang Haotian ignored him and strode forward with Toyagi whip in his hand. When he arrived in the tent, he saw three communicators making a "beep" sound in the yurt of nearly two hundred square meters. A communication soldier sat in front of each communicator and recorded it on a note. Then a lieutenant handed over to a table inside. There was a middle-aged officer with a medium figure and a thin and smart face. The rank on his shoulder showed that it was Lieutenant Colonel, and naturally Ruma. Next to him, there were four guards with live ammunition.

Seeing him entering the tent, Lieutenant Colonel Narumma finally got up, looked at Zhang Haotian, and followed him with a smile and walked over without saying a smile. Instead, he stretched out his hand and said, "Prince, I heard that you are in Checheerkule, why are you free to come here? I'm so lucky."

However, Zhang Haotian did not shake hands with him, but smiled coldly and said, "I heard that a new big shot from the Third Division has been released, so I want to come and see, Ruma, your military rank is not high, and your arrogance is quite big."

Lieutenant Colonel Ruma stretched out his hand and fell into vain. When he heard him say this, his expression became a little embarrassed, but immediately said: "Prince, although your identity is very noble, I, a Mongolian soldier, only saluted my boss. I am really sorry."

Zhang Haotian suddenly laughed, held the golden whip and slapped it on his shoulder, "Luma, you really don't blush when you lie. Isn't your boss just Major General Hua Buyin Que? Isn't you know where he is?"

Ruma had no choice but to be hypocritical, and she gritted her teeth and looked at him and said, "Hadanbatel, I know you came for the Democratic government. Let me tell you that Grebale and others are corrupt and colluded with the Chinese, making us Mongolians poorer and poorer. As a Mongolian citizen, I will never let my motherland sink like this again. It is time to take action."

Speaking of this, he stared at Zhang Haotian with fierce eyes and said, "Also, Hadan Batel, you helped the evil and colluded with the Democratic Party to massacre members of the royal family and committed an unforgivable bloody crime. When I got here today, I must not let you, the cruel murderer."
To be continued...
