Chapter 313 Divide the spoils

Balanqi left the grain transport team and escaped the river. The Aha grain transport team left on the other side of the shore severely slaughtered the Mongols. After most of the Ahas were cut off by the Mongols, the remaining few Ahas knelt on the ground and surrendered. What awaited them was the fate of being sent to Mongolia in the northern part of the Mo River as slaves. In fact, there was not much difference. They were originally slaves of the Jurchens, but now they became slaves of the Mongols, but they didn't have to farm after going to the Mongols.

The Jurchen food, horses and carts left on the north bank of the river all fell into the hands of the Mongolians.

In this battle, nearly 3,000 Mongols fought against 300 Jurchen cavalry, and the Mongol soldiers suffered nearly 1,000 casualties! And it was the result of the battle that 300 Jurchen soldiers were separated by the Yellow River and formed two sides! Such a battle made the Khalkha Mongols feel the bravery of the Jurchen soldiers. However, this battle was a huge gain. Not only did it annihilate nearly 300 Jurchen soldiers, but it also killed more than 1,000 Ahas and captured 300 grains and more than 300 stones of food, nearly 300 exquisite armor and weapons were seized, more than 200 war horses, more than 1,000 horses and other animals were seized.

Balanqi escaped the Yellow River in a panic, and there were more than 600 Aha and more than 1,000 stones of grain on the south bank of the river.

"Let's go, the remaining food cannot be lost anymore." Balanqi led the remaining thirty-four Jurchen cavalry and escorted more than 600 Baoyi Aha to drive the cart towards Dorgon's camp.

The Jurchen grain transport team walked for an afternoon. When it was about to dark, another team of cavalry appeared on the grassland ahead.

"Why are there cavalry coming again?" Balanqi was shocked. But he saw that the number of cavalry on the opposite side was not large, with only about one hundred cavalry, and he felt relieved. If there were one hundred Mongolian cavalry, he would not be afraid at all.

When the opponent approached, Balan discovered that more than 100 Jurchen cavalry were coming. The cavalry on the opposite side were wearing thick white armor and high lightning rod helmets. Their crotch were all riding the same Wuzhumuqin horses. The flags were the Sixth Niulu of Zhengbai Banner and the Shiertai.

Balanqi had no doubts about the other party at all, because he also knew Niu Lue, the sixth Niu Lu of Zhengbai Banner.

The two sides gradually approached, and when they could hear the call, a cavalryman on the opposite side who was divided into Shiku ran out and pointed at Balanqi and shouted sternly: "Blanqi, why are there only a few people left in your grain transport team? What about the grain truck? Why are there so many left?"

"When we crossed the river, we were attacked by Mongolian barbarians!" Balanqi quickly explained.

"How many Mongolian barbarians have come?"

"Three thousand people."

"You three hundred golden warriors were beaten like this by three thousand Mongolian barbarians?"

Balanqi quickly dismounted and saluted the man Dieji Shiku: "I hope this adult will say a few good words in front of Master Beile. Half of our army crossed the river and was attacked by the Mongols. I led my troops to the other side to rescue, but ended up in ambush."

Who knew that the opposite side of the group, Shiku, saw Balanqi dismount and apologized, suddenly rushed over. Before Balanqi could understand, he slashed the head and slashed the iron helmet on his head in half. Balanqi didn't even have time to hum, and his brain burst and died immediately.

One hundred cavalrymen wearing the armor of the white flag rushed into the crowd of thirty-four Jurchen cavalry. The maces, big axes, maces, page hammers and other heavy weapons danced up and down. In just a short while, all thirty-four defenseless Jurchen cavalry were killed.

The cavalrymen wearing the armor of the white flag were Han Dashan and Yibaiming Army at night. They were wearing the armor of the Jurchens and approached Balanqi, and then launched an attack unexpectedly. Before the Jurchens could react, they wiped out the enemy.

After killing the Jurchen cavalry, the Ming army started to kill Baoyi Aha at night. The cavalry replaced the tiger-toothed sword and Shun sword, and harvested Baoyi Aha's head to the fullest. In the blink of an eye, more than 100 Ahas were killed.

"Don't kill us, we surrender!" The remaining five hundred Baoyi Aha all knelt down and surrendered.

"Let the prisoners pull the food back to the north bank of the Yellow River overnight." Han Dashan asked him to escort the food overnight.

The team fired a torch, and the surrendered Baoyi Aha drove a cart to the direction of Junzijin Ferry overnight. The next morning, Han Dashan arrived on the bank of the Yellow River with the stolen grain. A ship that came out of the Shabigou city walle had already come over and transported the grain back. Those Baoyi Aha were all given to the Mongolians by Li Guodong. He could not guarantee whether the Baoyi Aha would be fled to the Shabigou city walle. As long as someone escaped and reported the news to the Jurchens, the location of the Shabigou city walle would be exposed and would be besieged and attacked by the Jurchens in the future.

Although most of Baoyi Aha were former Han people, and only a few were Koreans, Ci did not take charge of the troops, and Li Guodong would not regard the Han people who had already shaved their hair and changed their clothes and had been slaves to the Jurchens for many years as compatriots. He did not kill them all, but gave them to the Mongols as slaves. It was already kind enough.

The three Khalkha Mongolian tribes sacrificed more than 400 people and injured more than 500 people, but they gained a lot. They obtained nearly 300 sets of exquisite armor and weapons, seized more than 3,000 stones of food, and obtained more than 800 slaves.

"We are useless to those slow horses and wagon horses. We can give them to you, but you have to exchange them for things." Shuolei pointed to the seized slow horses and wagon horses and said to Li Guodong.

"This is no problem. This is the spoil you seized and can be included in our trade list. Of course, because our two armies are fighting together, you should have a lower discount, and you should calculate it at 50% off." Li Guodong replied.

"It's 50% off, it's stolen anyway." Shuolei agreed to Li Guodong. After all, the tea, salt and spices of the Han people are good things, and the Mongolians cannot do without these things. They can discount the stolen animals to the Han people and exchange them for some goods they need from the Han people. Anyway, they don't want to be the only one, and they don't feel bad about the low price.

Li Guodong also helped to treat the injured Mongolian soldiers. More than 500 people were injured. Except for more than 100 people seriously injured, the other injured Li Guodong could be cured. If some Mongolians who were shot by Jurchen archery were not used to treat them, the Jurchen arrows had been inserted into feces. The arrows were toxic and could die if they were not treated properly. After Li Guodong's treatment, the injured soldiers could jump around again in a few days.

"We attacked the Jiannu grain transport team, and Dorgon should know it soon. According to the information provided by the inside line, Yuetuo will send another grain transport team to start from naturalization in the past few days. We will rob the grain transport team again, and then we will consider attacking Yuetuo's camp and destroying all the grain stations of Jiannu. Dorgon will inevitably withdraw his troops! We set up an ambush on the way Dorgon retreated, here: set up an ambush! Gentlemen Jin to attack Dorgon with a half-cross and attack him! You will definitely win a complete victory!" Li Guodong pointed to the Junzijin Ferry and said.

"Attack Yuetuo Camp? Can we break through his camp?" asked Suba.

"Yuetuo's troops were not enough. When he came out of Liaodong, he only brought five thousand cavalry, three hundred of which were annihilated by us, and three hundred went to the Xinqinzhong Grassland and had not yet returned. In a few days, three hundred would be dispatched to escort grain. We would eat the 300 Jiannu who escort grain, and then eat the 300 Jiannu who came out of the Xinqinzhong Grassland and were ready to return! In that case, Yuetuo had only more than 4,000 troops left, and twenty thousand Baoyi Aha, which could not be counted as the military force. As long as we defeat Jiannu, those Baoyi would be sheep at the slaughter of others!"

The plan was made, and the Mongolian cavalry and the Ming cavalry divided the work. The Ming cavalry crossed the river and waited on the grassland on the other side of the river. After the Mongolian cavalry left the camp, they harassed all the way. Finally, when they crossed the river, they attacked them halfway. Then Han Dashan, who was ambushing the other side of the river, led the Ming army disguised as Jurchen cavalry, and wiped out the grain transport team.
